My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Yao had not been there for several days, so Ying Zheng naturally felt unhappy when he heard the news.

However, what made him unhappy was not just because his beloved grandson said something disgusting to him.

He once personally issued an edict ordering that "no one in the empire should mention the word death."

At that time, Ying Zheng was very afraid of death. However, Ying Zheng was not afraid of death, but was afraid that if he died, his many tasks would not be completed.

Now Yao said this.

Even though I know in my heart that these are just the innocent words of a child.

To be honest, Ying Zheng was quite happy when he heard Yao make up stories about his parents.

Zulong was not saddened by these words, but his illness became even worse.

Once upon a time, the seven great powers of the Warring States Period coexisted, and it was a magnificent era. But in the end, all this prosperity became the rubble of the old era. And the person standing on this rubble of the old era was Ying Zheng.

The once deafening noise eventually subsided into the voice of one person - Ying Zheng.

There are no more heroes in the world, no one is the boss anymore, everyone is equal, everyone is a commoner.

He is the only boss in the world, and everyone is a commoner. This is the best era for the common people.

However, this is also the biggest blow to the nobility, the elites, and the senior intellectuals.

Retaliation is almost inevitable.

But before he was avenged by his enemies, he was first avenged by his own son.

However, it only took a moment for Qin Shihuang to indulge in sensual pleasures and the flattery of his cronies, and he lost his true judgment of reality, became disconnected from the real grassroots, and could not hear the real voice.

What really made Qin Shi Huang's illness worse and made him sigh incessantly during the days of continuous autumn rain was not Yao's words that he was going to die soon, but the truth behind Yao's words that he was going to die soon.

He, Qin Shi Huang, once terrorized the six kingdoms, but now he has become an old man that the elderly, the weak, women and children talk about.

The prestige and dignity of the First Emperor have completely become a thing of the past.

Compared to being laughed at and talked about by children, Zulong found it difficult to get over the ups and downs of life.

Ying Zheng clearly remembered that his past days were very difficult and long.

But at this moment, all those painful days and tormenting years in the past seem like yesterday, not distant at all, each one is very clear and not blurry at all.

Yesterday seemed to be outside the window, and today is inside the window.

He abdicated from the supreme throne and retreated to this mountain, living a life of imprisonment every day. People in the streets and alleys were talking about him, and all kinds of slander and ridicule were like the tide.

Faced with such a cruel reality, Ying Zheng suddenly realized that all those damn good advice were fake.

Zulong split the Diamond Sutra in half.

Then it was burned.

Although the sutra is good, it is someone else's thing, which was gained through other people's enlightenment.

If you want to attain enlightenment, you still have to go your own way.

Zulong tore up the Diamond Sutra, and also tore up his own fantasies and his own unrealistic ideas.

Reality is a very arrogant guy. Even if he is Zulong, he can still punch him whenever he wants and beat him until he is black and blue.

Once upon a time, Ying Zheng's hope that he would always be able to hold power was shattered by Fusu.

And now, Ying Zheng's desire to become an immortal has also come to an end.

Once upon a time, he longed for his empire to last forever, and his descendants would rule the world forever. He had such a beautiful wish in his heart, but in the end, his son put him under house arrest, and his grandson cursed him in the streets.

Nothing could be sadder than this.

Ying Zheng sat in the empty palace, wandering in front of the palace corridor, with guards everywhere.

In just a few years, the steps that were originally made of marble are now covered with moss.

Ying Zheng stood beside a wooden pillar in the moss-covered corridor, overlooking the lights of Xianyang City in the distance.

On such a rainy autumn day, other people were enjoying themselves with their families, sitting around the fire and keeping warm, but he was alone in front of an empty luxurious palace, with no one around him to talk to.

Once, Ying Zheng would sigh, "When I reach the top, I find that I am always alone. No one talks to me. The lonely winter makes me shiver. What on earth am I doing up there?"

And now, Ying Zheng is still in a high position, but he feels a new kind of loneliness.

It turns out that there is a deeper pain in the world than not being understood, being abandoned and forgotten...

Being thrown into corners like garbage.

Ying Zheng was very sad because no one cared about him as a person or his feelings.

Qin Shihuang, a wise man, ended up like this.

In the last moments of his life, all Ying Zheng thought about were the dead.

Han Fei, who is sought after but cannot be obtained, is the eternal white moonlight.

The queen who got it but didn't cherish it, and finally left herself with lifelong regrets. Ying Zheng loved and hated her. He hated her ignorance and her living in her own little world, but he also loved her kindness, her purity, and her simplicity.

The mother who protected him when he was young but abandoned him when she grew up.

I have a brief memory of my father when I was young, and he was with me for only three years when I grew up.

Zhao Gao was a man with a lot of evil intentions but he would never harm himself, but was eventually killed by his own son with a sword.

There are also Wang Jian, Meng Wu and some old-timers.

But after much thought, the person he felt the most hatred for was his beloved queen.

Ying Zheng stroked the jade pendant that she had given him when they were young, and held it over and over again.

The next morning he summoned a sorcerer.

Ying Zheng handed him the jade pendant and said, "Please help me see her again."

The sorcerer was in a dilemma. "Your Majesty, she is gone. Why worry about her? The more you worry about her, the more she will be restless in the underworld."

Ying Zheng's face darkened. "I saw her again last night. I saw her wandering around the Lanchi Palace where I lived with her."

"She was wearing white and carrying a basket of flowers, just as she was before she left."

As the First Emperor spoke, his eyes turned red.

When Ji Xin heard this, her heart trembled.

In fact, he had heard about the incident in which the First Emperor of the Qin Dynasty encountered thieves in the Lan Chi Palace, but he did not know that the Lan Chi Palace had such significance to the Emperor.

No wonder the emperor insisted on renovating a very old palace. It turned out that it was because that was where he and the late empress dowager lived.

Ji Xin couldn't help but sigh that the emperor was also a romantic man.

It's just a pity that he seemed to have been the emperor for too long and even forgot the lives of common people. Most people couldn't even live in a thatched hut in their entire lives, but the emperor renovated the Lan Chi Palace for a deceased person, for a soul that could not be verified.

Although Ji Xin never understood Qin Shihuang's cruelty and tyranny, when she saw that he had such a woman deep in his heart and continued this love alone, Ji Xin inexplicably worried about Qin Shihuang.

He wanted to persuade the First Emperor not to think about him anymore.

Qin Shihuang was very sad.

The sorcerer felt helpless, as it had only been a month since the First Emperor summoned him and asked him to use magic to see the late Queen Mother.

Forget it, maybe a month is very short for me, but for Qin Shihuang himself, it is very long.

The sorcerer still agreed to Qin Shihuang's request.

Ying Zheng jumped up on the spot happily like a child.

He hadn't been happy for a long time, and he would only be happy when he saw the queen's appearance.

But the warlock is very troubled, which is not a good thing.

The Yin and Yang are separated. Some people have returned to the underworld after death and become ghosts. Why does His Majesty the Emperor always want to meet the ghosts?

Although he knew that this was not a good thing to do, Qin Shihuang still couldn't suppress his inner longing.

He also wanted to relieve himself as quickly as possible, but he couldn't do it.

He once prayed to God, hoping that she was well in the underworld, and swore to God that as long as God took good care of her, he would never disturb her again. Qin Shihuang did these messy things every day. He did not cultivate gods, but communicated with the deceased.

These things are blocked among the people because some people are worried that some people will use them to make profits, while others will use them to do bad things.

After all, this world is so complicated. There are wolves and tigers in human skin. Once these monsters are publicized, the order of the world will be impacted.

And everyone likes simpler things and only believes in the world they see with their own eyes.

The unknown is always frightening.

Ji Xin reported all these things about the emperor to Qin II one by one.

Qin II was just annoyed, "If you don't cherish me when I'm alive, you'll always cause trouble after I die."

Ji Xin took a step back in fear. Only the Emperor would dare to say such words.

How dare others say anything?

"Your Majesty, the emperor's health has not been very good recently."

Qin II looked at the gauze screen in front of him, on which was painted a pair of big deer surrounding a young deer.

I don't know what he was thinking, but he replied coldly, "Well, I know. You can leave now."

Ji Xin was worried that the situation of His Majesty the First Emperor was getting worse.

He actually took the initiative to stand up and speak to Qin Shi Huang, "Your Majesty, the emperor is different this time, and his illness is more serious."

Fusu didn't say anything, but just raised his eyes and looked at Ji Xin.

"Before I came, the Emperor had only eaten one meal a day for several days."

Fusu raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I know, I know."

Seeing the emperor's nonchalant expression, Ji Xin actually felt that it was not worth it for Qin Shi Huang.

If the retired emperor had not been soft-hearted and made way for Your Majesty, Your Majesty wouldn't know where he is now.

But the emperor is now ill, and Your Majesty is ignoring him.

How can there be such a person in the world?

Ji Xin felt very angry and walked with big steps, making the floor make noises.

Qin II was startled and looked up at him.

But perhaps, it’s not Ji Xin’s fault for being impulsive, it’s just that Qin II was actually playing chess at this juncture.

The person opposite him was a young child.

Lin Changnian.

After graduation, he came to the palace to take up a job.

When he first saw his name, Qin II was still stunned.

At that moment, too many things flashed through the emperor's mind.

Qin Ershi was also young. At that time, he took his favorite woman Han Ji and his most trusted person Lin Xin to his fiefdom and spent a very wonderful time there.

They often went boating on the lake and talked about philosophy together.

It's not over until the middle of the night...

At that time, only Xin could understand what was in my heart.

In fact, Lin Xin is himself two thousand years later.

A down-and-out scholar, whose family has fallen into poverty and has no money, aspires to achieve great things, but has no way or platform.

But despite being full of talent and knowing the ways of the world very well, he is unable to do anything.

Lin Changnian's appearance reminded Qin II of himself when he was seventeen or eighteen years old.

I was dressed in fine clothes and riding a horse at that time, but now I am full of stench.

I use magic and power to deal with people every day, and I have only one goal, which is to hold on to power tighter and tighter.

Qin II was aware of his changes, but he accidentally went too far.

He left without even recognizing himself.

When we are young, liking someone is just liking them; once we mature, all feelings are mixed with complex elements.

So once he saw Lin Changnian appear, he pulled him to his side without hesitation.

The emperor liked the young man very much.

But Lin Changnian is different from his father. Xin is very talkative and also very rebellious.

For many years, he is more introverted, doesn't like to talk, and tends to be a bit like a pig in disguise.

When Qin II looked at Lin Changnian, he always had hallucinations, as if his father was right in front of him.

Xin was also full of vigor and vitality at the beginning.

Now that Changnian has grown up, when he gets serious, he is exactly like his father.

From Guan Fu's words, it can be seen that Changnian loved him very much, and he treated the young man well almost regardless of the cost.

It’s like when a teammate is accidentally killed in a bomb during a war. The dead are happy, but the living cannot be happy.

Because that accident could have been avoided.

If it is unavoidable, then it is fine. After all, everyone will die.

But it can be avoided...

He sat opposite Qin II for many years, and the only sound in the hall was the sound of chess pieces falling on the chessboard.

A gust of wind blew, and a green leaf fell on the chessboard.

A hint of green is reflected on the lustrous pink chess pieces.

Qin II took away the green leaves...

After looking at the emperor for a long time, he couldn't help asking, "Why doesn't your majesty go to see the emperor?"

Lin Changnian is the son of Lin Xin.

And Lin Xin was killed by Qin Shihuang.

When Qin II heard this, the chess piece fell from his hand. The pink chess piece hit the chessboard and bounced three times in a row.

The atmosphere in the hall suddenly became extremely tense, and everyone knelt down in unison.

People's ignorance will always lead to big mistakes. If Ji Xin knew who the person opposite the emperor was, she might not have reported it directly like this.

But there was something wrong with the person on duty today. He actually let Ji Xin in.

The emperor knew that this was because his confidants had been sent away one by one, including Chen Ping, Shao Ping, and Cao Shen.

The Second World did not speak.

Lin Changnian stood up, picked up the discarded chess piece, and handed it to Qin II with both hands.

"Actually, it's all over."

"If my father were still alive, he would not resent the emperor. In my father's mind, the emperor is more important than your majesty."

"Always."

"So I never hate the emperor, because I understand that every person who devotes himself to his ideals, from the moment he makes a decision, he is already prepared to die."

"The Master said, 'If one seeks benevolence and obtains it, why should one complain?'"

"My father was willing to pay the price of his life to admonish a person, and he did it. He did not violate his conscience. Even if he was killed by the person he admired the most, it was worth it." (End of this chapter)
