Chapter 124
Fusu looked at Ying Zheng with a worried face.
"What did the imperial physician say? Is there really no other way?"
He found it hard to accept such a thing.
After breaking free from the ocean of books, he found a trace of joy again.
Yet he did not expect that his father, whom he thought of as a pillar, would be physically weak to such an extent.
"What does this look like? You are an Imperial Prince of Great Qin."
Although Ying Zheng was very satisfied with Fusu's worry, he still scolded him.
One who is a ruler must absolutely not reveal their emotions in front of everyone.
"Father, don't worry. If those imperial physicians cannot cure your illness, I will kill them all."
Hu Hai also reacted at this time.
He knew that Ying Zheng had already reached the point of exhaustion.
If he didn't show himself at this time, what if Ying Zheng handed the throne to Fusu?
Ying Zheng glanced at his youngest son, and looking at Hu Hai's pretending-to-be-nervous appearance, a trace of coldness flashed in his eyes.
He had not died yet, and this son was already impatient to show his ambition.
If he really died,
I am afraid that the position under him would not be smoothly handed over to Fusu.
That's right.
After careful consideration during this period, Ying Zheng finally decided to hand the position under him to Fusu.
Among the two candidates, Fusu and Hu Hai, only Fusu was more suitable for this position.
Although Fusu's personality was a bit kinder, a ruler can be kind, but absolutely cannot be incompetent.
Hu Hai's incompetence would only lead the entire Qin State to destruction.
Wang Jian, Meng Tian, Li Si, and other ministers also all entered the imperial palace.
Clearly, they also knew what kind of juncture had been reached now.
These few people all waited outside the palace.
The cold wind was bleak, and Meng Tian stood there with an icy face.
He did not know what the outcome would be after tonight.
He only knew that no matter to whom Ying Zheng handed this position, he was loyal to the entire Great Qin.
Ying Mo naturally had long since arrived in Ying Zheng's Qin Palace.
Sitting on the high rafters, watching the fatherly kindness and filial piety below.
Regarding his understanding of Ying Zheng, Ying Mo naturally knew that Ying Zheng intended to hand the throne below to Fusu.
Ying Mo did not know what the Qin State would become if the throne really reached Fusu's hands.
"You two stay on the side for now."
After Ying Zheng spoke for a while, he revealed a weak look and finally let the few people waiting outside come in.
As soon as Meng Tian walked into the main hall, he saw the pale-faced Ying Zheng.
His eyes moved.
Li Si followed behind Meng Tian, and the three soon arrived before Ying Zheng.
"You are all good ministers who have been by my side for a long time. Great Qin being as it is, your contributions are indispensable."
Looking at the three people in front of him, Ying Zheng said calmly.
When saying these words, he suddenly felt like laughing.
Among the three people in front of him, except for Meng Tian who could distance himself from the events of five years ago,
Li Si followed and participated directly in the events of five years ago.
Although Wang Jian had not been investigated, the suspicion that he was heavily implicated in the events of five years ago remained.
Three of his own ministers with great achievements had two who participated in the plot to harm his eldest Imperial Prince.
What a ridiculous thing this was.
If that child were really still alive, I am afraid he would not come back to see him either.
………
Outside the palace, Donghuang Taiyi and Beimingzi successfully bypassed the guards and entered the imperial palace.
The two moved silently and quickly approached Ying Zheng's sleeping quarters.
Along the way, not a single guard could discover that there was anything wrong.
Just as the two's auras were approaching the palace where Ying Zheng was,
Ying Mo, who had been sitting listlessly on the rafters, suddenly raised his eyes.
He sensed two auras approaching quickly toward this side.
Upon sensing someone approaching, Ying Mo quickly extinguished one of the candles.
This was the secret signal they had agreed upon with Ying Zheng.
When Zhang Han saw the candle extinguish, he knew someone had come.
Immediately, he hurriedly stepped forward and interrupted Ying Zheng's words.
"Your Majesty, it is time to take your medicine."
After speaking, Zhang Han took an elixir from his bosom and handed it to Ying Zheng.
After Ying Zheng heard Zhang Han's words, his eyes flickered.
He understood that those people had already entered the palace.
"You all go down and wait first."
Ying Zheng waved his hand, signaling Fusu, Hu Hai, and others to go down and wait.
Afterwards, he swallowed the elixir in his hand and pretended to be weak, lying on the bed with his eyes drooping.
Donghuang Taiyi and Beimingzi, who were outside the sleeping quarters, saw Ying Zheng's situation with their own eyes.
"He should not have discovered the problem with the elixir and is still taking it constantly."
"Originally, according to the amount of elixir he took, he should have died several months ago."
"Perhaps the rare treasures and herbs offered before caused the toxicity in his body to dissipate somewhat, allowing him to survive until now."
Donghuang Taiyi whispered to Beimingzi.
Beimingzi nodded; looking at Ying Zheng like this, it was indeed the appearance of exhaustion.
"If it really doesn't work, let's solve him tonight."
Beimingzi proposed.
As long as Ying Zheng did not die for one day, he was a knife hanging over the head of his Legalist school.
Beimingzi naturally did not want to be affected by this knife every day.
And Donghuang Taiyi's thoughts coincided with Beimingzi's.
Since they had come out this time, let's solve Ying Zheng completely.
Afterwards, take the entire Great Qin into their own hands.
"There are twelve guards here; you and I will each be responsible for half."
With Donghuang Taiyi's strength, he naturally had long since explored the guards hidden in the shadows of the entire palace clearly.
Xuanmingzi's strength was only weaker than Donghuang's.
After the two nodded, their figures immediately disappeared into the darkness.
What the two did not know was that as soon as they disappeared, a figure appeared from the darkness.
Ying Mo slowly walked out from the darkness, looking at these two figures with icy and murderous eyes.
These two people were clearly the real culprits who participated in the events of five years ago.
It was just unexpected that these two people were so cautious, wrapping their entire bodies under black robes.
But since they appeared, then don't plan on leaving here alive tonight.
Just as Donghuang Taiyi and Beimingzi solved all twelve guards, they entered the sleeping quarters directly.
When the two approached Ying Zheng, Ying Zheng, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened his eyes directly.
Where was there any weakness or turbidity in those eyes?
In those eyes, there was only sharpness, murderous intent, and a trace of understanding.
