When Lü Buwei and Zhao Kuo rushed to the heavily guarded palace, the entire palace was in chaos. Under the leadership of the elder Shi Huanli, the two walked quickly into King Qin's study.

There was a pungent smell of herbs in the study, and on the king's couch, the white-haired Qin Wang Yingzhu was lying there upright, no longer half angry. Huayang sat tremblingly on her knees, staring blankly ahead with empty eyes.

As soon as the helpless Ying Yiren saw Lü Buwei and Zhao Kuo, he seemed to see a savior: "Ma Fujun, Lu Gong!" Inhumans are also ...... upset"

After bowing deeply in front of the body of King Yingzhu of Qin, Lü Buwei bowed his hand to Yingyiren and whispered comfort: "Don't panic, the prince, the urgent task at the moment is to stabilize the overall situation, and the rest can be delayed!" ”

"Do as you say." With these two people by his side, Ying Yiren suddenly had confidence.

At this moment, only to hear a scream from Huayanghou, he actually fainted on the side of the couch, and the study that had just calmed down suddenly fell into chaos again, and the imperial doctors and attendants hurriedly gathered over and helped Huayanghou to sit up.

"Prince, the queen is overly sad, and it's fine." After a few moments, one of the oldest physicians stood up and reported to Ying Yiren.

"In that case, let the queen go back to the palace to rest!" Ying Yiren waved his hand expressionlessly.

"No." The old lady doctor bowed to Ying Yiren, and then beckoned the attendants to help Huayang on a soft couch that was hurriedly carried from outside the study.

After everyone hurriedly sent Huayang away, Zhao Kuo turned to the elder Shi Huan and said: "The country can't be without a king for a day, let's announce the edict of Changshi." ”

The elder Shi Huan nodded, took out a roll of parchment from the large copper plate held by the attendant behind him, and read it out loud: "The edict of the King of Qin: The crown prince Chu will be the king of Qin, and I hope that all the ministers and the prince will work together." June of the first year of King Zhu of Qin. ”

"Ministers, see King Qin!" As the edict was read, everyone present fell down in front of Ying Yiren almost at the same time.

Ying Yiren ordered everyone to get up with a blank face, and choked up: "Father and the king are unexpected, this king has no intention of taking care of state affairs, and the affairs should be handled by Lu Buwei for the time being. ”

"This ......," Huan Li wanted to say and stopped.

"Minister Lu Buwei is edicted." Lu Buwei glanced at the old man and replied solemnly.

"In extraordinary times, Zhao Kuo, the king of horses, temporarily commanded the palace guards. Deploy troops to strengthen the protection of Miyagi to ensure that during the funeral period, there is nothing to do. Ying Yiren thought about it for a while, and soon issued a second edict.

"No!" Zhao Kuo also accepted the appointment without hesitation.

Ying Yiren also has his own helplessness, although he is now the king of Qin, he has been in the country for a long time, and there is no foundation in the country, and the only ones who can really rely on him are Lu Buwei and Zhao Kuo.

Lü Buwei wholeheartedly supported Yingyiren, so that his son could become the king of Qin smoothly in the future, and Zhao Kuo was for Zhao's plan to disrupt Qin. Although the two have different goals, their interests are the same, which makes them naturally come together and work together to the outside world.

In August, the two grand state funerals finally came to an end. Three days later, it was the first court meeting ceremony to establish the prime minister and general of the new dynasty.

Under the instruction of Ying Yiren, in the past two months, Lü Buwei has taken charge of all the government affairs inside and outside Qin, but he has left Cai Ze, the prime minister of the opening government, aside.

"In the long run, how can there be a place for me in the Qin State?" Cai Ze, who was full of resentment, soon entered the palace and found the Empress Dowager Huayang.

Empress Dowager Huayang was also depressed at this time, and a few years ago, under the recommendation of her sister Lady Huayue and younger brother Yangquanjun, she met Lü Buwei, a merchant from Zhao State. Lü Buwei once swore that the crown prince was old, and once the landslide made him rich, he would not be able to last long. If Wang Sun Yiren can be brought back to Qin State as his son-in-law. In the future, the stranger will be grateful, and the wealth of the Mi family will be able to continue.

If he hadn't listened to Lu Buwei's rhetoric and worked hard to maneuver, how could Yingyiren be where he is today? Why did Lü Buwei have today? But after becoming the king of Qin, Ying Yiren didn't even come to a routine visit, and obviously forgot about her, the queen mother. How could she not feel chilled when she was so ungrateful?

Therefore, as soon as Prime Minister Cai Ze made his words clear, the two hit it off.

Mrs. Huayang quickly asked people to find her younger brother, Yangquan Jun Michen. Mi Chen was deeply fooled by the fact that he failed to get the position of national lieutenant. The three of them got together and cursed Lu Buwei's profiteers for being in charge, and Yingyiren crossed the river and demolished the bridge!

After scolding for a long time, Mrs. Huayang suddenly said coldly: "What's the use of scolding? The two of you, one is the prime minister of the Kaifu and the other is the general of Xianyang, and with the power in hand, there is nothing to do about such a faint king, profiteer? ”

There was a sudden silence in the room, and after thinking for a long time, Cai Ze sighed heavily: "Now the palace guards are all led by Zhao Kuo, the king of Mafu, and the old minister has a lot of relationship with him, if he can say that Zhao Kuo can be moved, it can be done!" ”

"Zhao Kuo? This person and Lu Buwei are the same raccoon dog! Cannot! Cannot! Yang Quanjun vetoed it disappreciably.

Cai Ze shook his head slightly: "Otherwise! The old man observed, Zhao Lu and the two looked like each other for a long time! Zhao Kuo was persecuted for Zhao and came to Qin Wei to take revenge! If I speak as a general, his heart will be moved! ”

"Then you will become a king according to the outline! Ying Yiren is cowardly and unscrupulous, as long as he excludes the profiteers, Gang Chengjun is the prime minister, and the Qin State is worry-free. The Empress Dowager Huayang covered her mouth and giggled......

Cai Ze's sudden visit surprised Zhao Kuo, and after retreating, Cai Ze whispered mysteriously: "Ma Fujun has lived in the Qin Kingdom for a long time, have you ever used to it?" ”

Zhao Kuo's heart moved, but his face did not change: "Why does Gang Chengjun ask this?" ”

Cai Ze didn't want to go around in circles, so he went straight to the point and said, "What if Ma Fujun is the general of the Qin State?" ”

Zhao Kuo waved his hand and smiled noncommittally: "Gang Chengjun is also laughing!" Zhao Kuo used to be a general of Zhao, and he didn't dare to have such an extravagant hope when he came to Qin. ”

After hearing this, Cai Ze immediately leaned forward, and said with a straight face: "The profiteer is in charge, bewitching the King of Qin, and Daqin is in danger!" The Queen Mother's secret edict to eradicate Lü Buwei, if you get help, three days later, the court will meet, and we will try our best to protect the position of the general! ”

I see! is worried that there is no good plan to mess with Qin, this Cai Ze actually came to the door by himself, and the sudden change made him overjoyed, but the play still has to be done. Zhao Kuo's eyes rolled, and he was silent.

"How?" Cai Ze stared at Zhao Kuo with a nervous expression.

"The stakes are very high, can there be evidence for Gang Chengjun's words?" Zhao Kuo slowly stood up and paced in front of Cai Zezao.

Seeing the faint smile on Zhao Kuo's face, Governor Cai Ze had a future, and hurriedly said: "The Queen Mother, the old man and Yang Quanjun will guarantee it!" This is the voucher. Cai Ze said as he took out a roll of parchment from his arms, and there were only eight words on the parchment: Zhao Kuo is a general, and he will be punished for violating his oath.

It is covered with three large seals of the Empress Dowager Huayang, Gang Cheng Jun Cai Ze and Yang Quanjun Mi Chen.

"What did Zhao Kuo do?" Zhao Kuo showed a casual look, took the parchment casually, and put it in his arms.

Cai Ze left the case and came to Zhao Kuo's side and whispered in his ear, and then bowed his hand and said: "Old man, enter the palace first to report to the Queen Mother, please obey the king!" ”

After sending Cai Ze away, Zhao Kuo turned around and clapped his hands gently: "Brother Lu, let's go." ”

As soon as the words fell, I saw Lu Buwei, who was dressed in a white robe, slowly walked out from behind the screen, dusted off his sleeves, and said with a hateful face: "Little trick!" ”

"It's a pity! Cai Ze is a man of calculation after all, and there is no temple plan at all! Zhao Kuo couldn't help but sigh.

Lu Buwei then went straight to Cai Ze's seat just now, picked up the big lord full of wine on the table, and snorted coldly: "What does Brother Zhao want to do about it?" ”

Zhao Kuo casually grabbed a roll of bamboo slips in front of him, glanced at it absentmindedly, and then spit out four words from his mouth without hurrying: "Catch them all!" ”

Suddenly, the two of them laughed in unison.
