Qin Renhuang just became an immortal, and you told me this is the prehistoric time
Chapter 10: The tigers and wolves are plotting against each other, each having different intentions.
Chapter 10: The tigers and wolves are plotting against each other, each having different intentions. Is the Qin Emperor's sword sharp?
"Your Majesty, that's exactly what you said!"
Feng Quji looked bitter, sighed, and said, "After all, our strength is too weak!"
"If not, there would be no chance for eunuchs like Zhao Gao to be so domineering, and it would be impossible for a two-faced hypocrite like Li Si to stand in the court!"
Upon hearing this, Ying Xuan remained silent.
There were disputes among various factions in the court. Before this, he was powerless and could not fully control the affairs of the court.
That’s because these ministers and generals all have great cultivation, and with a wave of their hands and a move, they can easily destroy mountains and seas.
Before, Ying Xuan was just an ordinary man. Although he had a group of supporters around him, in terms of strength, he was far inferior to Hu Hai and others.
Even now... Ying Xuan has only barely stepped into the realm of heavenly immortals with the help of the system!
You know, among all the civil and military officials in the court, the weakest are those in the realm of true immortals!
Among them, Li Si, the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, was born in Confucianism and possessed the magical power of making his words come true. His cultivation had reached the peak of the Golden Immortal Realm and was only one step away from the Taiyi Realm!
This is why, even though Ying Xuan embarked on the path of cultivation, he did not brag about it, but instead tried his best to conceal it!
In this mythical world with a primitive background, the Heavenly Fairyland is not even qualified to be a cannon fodder!
"But this situation will soon be over!"
Feng Quji changed the subject and said with a piercing gaze, "Your Majesty, the eldest son has received the news and is rushing back to Xianyang City!"
"By then, all crises will be solved!"
The words fell!
Ying Xuan's heart moved slightly, and an image of a noble young man in white clothes, who looked like a banished immortal, emerged in his mind. It was Fusu, the eldest son of Zulong.
At the same time, he is also his elder brother from the same mother.
In fact, both inside and outside the court, the person recognized as the most suitable to sit on the throne was actually the eldest prince Fusu.
Ying Xuan was more of a lucky find.
After more than ten years of management, he himself has a group of supporters, and the civil and military officials of Fusu's faction also tend to be closer to him because of their brotherly relationship.
However, now that Fusu is about to return...the situation is likely to change again.
Ying Xuan remained calm and chatted with Feng Quji about the changes in the court situation. Then he watched the right prime minister leave with a thoughtful look on his face.
It is true that he and Fusu are brothers, and they had a very close relationship before Fusu went to the north to guard the border.
But after all, more than two years have passed, and Ying Xuan is not sure whether his brother's feelings will change.
"After all, he is the pinnacle of power in this world... Even if he is a brother, there is no way to trust him, right?"
Ying Xuan sighed in his heart, and became more and more eager to improve his strength as soon as possible.
All great power belongs to yourself!
In this mythological world set against a primitive background, this sentence really sums it up perfectly!
Thinking of this, Ying Xuan pondered for a moment and summoned the Qi Flowing Wheel...
[Whether to consume 100 luck points and turn the luck wheel]
"Yes!"
Ying Xuan said silently in his heart without any hesitation.
Then, he watched the Qi wheel start to turn...
……
And this time!
Outside the city of Xianyang, in Shanglin Garden.
In a courtyard surrounded by bamboo forests on all sides, the young man sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. Two streams of blue and golden air lingered around his body, sweeping up the spiritual energy from all around and continuously pouring in from his forehead!
A wave of scorching heat interacts with an icy air current, in harmony with the principles of heaven and earth, like the mating of yin and yang!
Above the sky outside the yard, a bright moon and a big sun seemed to appear faintly, shining brightly against each other!
Zhao Gao, with a gloomy face, stared at the scene, indifferent.
After a long time, the blue and golden air currents gradually dissipated, and the young man slowly opened his eyes, revealing his natural heterochromia!
One eye is ice blue, the other eye is golden amber!
Extremely miraculous!
"teacher!"
After Hu Hai stood up, he looked at Zhao Gao who was standing next to him and panting, and nodded respectfully, saying, "Thank you for protecting me, teacher. I've worked so hard this time!"
“…No need to be so polite, it’s because you are extremely talented, otherwise you wouldn’t have been able to break through to the realm of true immortality so quickly!” Zhao Gao coughed twice. The influence of the three hundred beatings in the court had not yet disappeared.
Now, he was expending a lot of energy to help Hu Hai break through to the realm of true immortality. Even though he was also a great cultivator, he was still wasting his energy.
Seeing Hu Hai's successful breakthrough, Zhao Gao's eyes showed a hint of satisfaction.
Obviously, although he remained expressionless on the surface, he was still satisfied with this disciple in his heart.
Even the weakest of the civil and military officials in the court are all true immortals!
But think about it, who are those people?
Either they are from one of the many schools of thought like Li Si, or they are from a famous family who has received magic from immortals and inherited the Taoist tradition!
There isn't an easy one!
The most important thing is that those people have been practicing for at least hundreds or thousands of years!
And Hu Hai had only been practicing for more than 20 years, but he could already be described as a brilliant talent!
Of course, there is another point that Zhao Gao is satisfied with, that is, Hu Hai, who is in the real fairyland, is still under his control!
"Since you have achieved a breakthrough, I will take my leave now!"
Zhao Gao bowed slightly, and as Hu Hai watched him, he slowly left the bamboo courtyard.
However, he had only taken two steps when a figure appeared in his sight.
It’s Li Si!
"Sir, it looks like you have gained a lot." Li Si said lightly.
"Prime Minister Li is waiting here, isn't he just to tell us this?"
Zhao Gao noticed Li Si's strange expression at a glance, and narrowed his eyes slightly, frowning and asking, "What happened?"
The two were in the same boat. They had conspired before Zulong's death, but Ying Xuan, who had insight into the course of history, got there first and determined their status.
This led to the failure of their plan.
However, this also tied the two together.
"Not long ago, news came from the north that the eldest prince Fusu had left!" Li Si did not keep anyone in suspense and directly told the whole story.
The eldest prince Fusu!
When Zhao Gao heard the name, he immediately realized the seriousness of the matter. He looked thoughtful and asked, "Is Fusu rushing back to Xianyang City?"
Li Si nodded, and without further ado, he got straight to the point: "Is that decree still valid?"
Zhao Gao raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment, and shook his head.
"The one in Xianyang Palace has already succeeded to the throne. The late emperor's handwriting still has a trace of imperial power and can affect the country's destiny, but it cannot shake the overall situation!"
"Now, the fate of the Qin Empire has stabilized. Under the protection of the nation, even the Golden Immortal dares not take action!"
Hearing this, Li Si remained silent.
What the two men said was a vicious plan they had planned after the news of Zulong's sudden death came back!
That is to use the handwritten letter left by Zulong before his death as the will, forge an imperial edict and take advantage of the turmoil to directly execute the eldest prince Fusu and announce that Hu Hai would succeed to the throne!
Such things have happened in history!
In the past, during the war between Shang and Zhou, Emperor Xin was bewitched by his favored flatterers and concubines, and he mistakenly killed his own queen and his subjects!
Zhao Gao and Li Si intended to replicate such an incident.
Unfortunately, Ying Xuan had a keen insight into the course of history and acted too quickly, announcing his ascension to the throne in front of the coffin without any hesitation, causing Zhao Gao and Li Si to lose their opportunity.
"The conscription of civilians did not cause any disturbance in the fortunes of the Qin Empire. Instead, the man in the Xianyang Palace dragged down all the civil and military officials by injuring one thousand enemies while injuring eight hundred of his own!"
"Now, Fusu will return to Xianyang City again!"
"Once the situation changes drastically, it will probably be disadvantageous to us!" Li Si said in a deep voice.
This great Legalist leader had obviously foreseen something, otherwise he would not be so uneasy.
"What are you worried about?" Zhao Gao asked.
