Chapter 118 The Battle of the Temple

Chapter 118 The Battle of the Temple
"when!"

The bell for entering the court rang, and densely packed ministers rushed to the hall along the steps.Today is the first court meeting of the new king after he ascended the throne, and everyone has to go through what happened a few months ago again with nervousness.

"Your Majesty is here!"

Under the shout of an eunuch, Ying Zichu, dressed in a black royal robe, walked into the hall majesticly.

"Meet the king!"

"Everyone is flat!"

"sit!"

All the ministers have long been familiar with the process of a line.But after a while, the court hall of a hundred people fell into silence again.

"In a year, my Great Qin lost two monarchs. Today, I want to pardon the world, and share with my people of Great Qin." Ying Zichu announced the shocking news as soon as he opened his mouth.

Since Shang Yang's reform, the Qin State has taken the law as the core of governing the country.Although there are many strict laws in the Qin law, they have already been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Now that Ying Zichu has just ascended the throne and became king, he is about to tamper with the laws of the country. For a while, all the ministers don't quite understand Ying Zichu's thoughts.

"Your Majesty, since Duke Xiao's Reformation, our Qin State has been based on the law. I'm afraid this is inappropriate..." Under the main hall, Sima Jun came out and said.

Xiong Quan, who was standing in the left column, glanced at Sima Jun, frowning slightly.Although the Yaodong Six Kingdoms constantly criticized Qin as a country of tigers and wolves with the Qin Law, Xiong Quan, who had lived in Qin for so many years, understood that the Qin Law only restricted the interests of the ministers.Those mud legs at the bottom also got a jump in promotion through Qin Fa.

Therefore, Qin Fa is not as strict as imagined.So, what is the purpose of Ying Zichu doing this?And Sima Jun bluntly objected, what was the purpose of sweeping the new king's face?
"Sima Aiqing has already said that after the establishment of Qin Fa, it will not remain unchanged. Now, the former king has died, and it is time to unite the hearts of the people, but a little flexibility, why not?" Ying Zichu's majestic voice sounded again.

Sima Jun shook his head, and said unyieldingly: "During Xiaogong's reform, the crown prince Taifu Gongziqian was punished for violating the Qin law. Even in the time of King Huiwen, the law was never abolished because of this. Now, the king's reform, How can I be worthy of the former kings!"

As soon as Sima Jun's words came out, there was an uproar in the government and the public.

If it is said that Sima Jun's previous remarks were just to slap Zichu's face in Qin Wang's face, now he is slapping Zichu's face in the face, and he has the intention of punishing him.

Sure enough, after hearing Sima Jun's words, Ying Zichu's face suddenly darkened.

All the ministers under the main hall also fell silent immediately, even if Ying Zichu's face was covered by the bead curtain on the crown, as long as they were not stupid, they would not contradict Ying Zichu at this time.

This time, Xiong Quan was really stunned, "What does this old man Sima Jun want to do? Is it worth offending Ying Zichu so much?"

"Your Majesty!" Baili Jun also stood up, "It is a taboo to tamper with the foundation of the country!"

"Your Majesty!" The Patriarch of the Du Family, Du Xing, also stood up.

"Your Majesty!"

People from the old Qin family sprung up one after another like mushrooms after rain.After a while, half of the ministers standing on the right came out to put pressure on Ying Zichu.

"Do you all think so?" Ying Zichu turned his head to look at the Chu people on the left.

However, Xiong Quan, who was shaking with Sima Jun to death in the past, still didn't say a word at this time, but closed his eyes to rest his mind.

"Xiangguo?" Seeing that Xiong Quan didn't respond, Ying Zichu could only focus on Lu Buwei again.

Yes, Lu Buwei has become the prime minister of Qin today.Just after Ying Zichu's three-day mourning period expired, when Ying Zichu ascended the throne, without notifying anyone, he directly announced that Lu Buwei would be the prime minister.

Of course, Ying Zichu didn't have any good intentions in doing this.The position of Xiangguo is so important, whether it is the Chu family or the old Qin family, they are all staring at this position all the time.

Now, Yingzi Chu, with the prestige of the new king, forcibly put the position of Xiangguo on Lu Buwei's head.One can imagine how much pressure Lu Buwei was under.

What kind of person Lu Buwei is, he naturally knows Ying Zichu's careful thoughts.However, it is impossible for Lu Buwei to let go of the hard-won position of Prime Minister.

There is no way, although the current Lu Buwei is in the position of prime minister, he is not qualified to be in the eyes of Sima Jun and Xiong Quan.He could only temporarily stand by Ying Zichu's side and wait for the opportunity.

"Your Majesty, my lords, Buwei thinks that this is feasible..." Lu Buwei and Sima Jun looked at each other, and the latter showed a smile of unknown meaning.

"Your Majesty, I believe that the laws of Qin are strict and cannot be tampered with. However, it should not be static."

Ying Zichu glanced at the old Qin troops on the right, and seeing that the leader, Sima Jun, was silent, he nodded and motioned for Lu Buwei to continue.

"Your Majesty, as far as I know, in our Great Qin, those who break the law are sitting on the left and right. In the prison, there are no more than one out of ten people who are truly unforgivable. Now the King wants to benefit the people, and I secretly think that this Those who sit together are compiled as soldiers who fall into the battle. When serving the country, they can also fight for the title."

Ying Zichu's eyes lit up slightly, this method is really good.It can not only not damage the majesty of Qin Fa, but also show his benevolence.Previously, even he himself had never thought of such a way to have the best of both worlds.

"What do you ladies think?" Ying Zichu looked at Sima Jun again.

The corner of Sima Jun's mouth curled slightly, and without refuting, he cupped his hands and said, "I think it's possible!"

"Huh?" Xiong Quan suddenly opened his eyes, "What the hell is this old man thinking about!"

Not only the people from the Chu family were taken aback, but even the old Qin family members showed a very puzzled expression.

I thought that Sima Jun was trying to give this brat a bad start, and the old guys like himself also took the lead.Unexpectedly, at this time, his boss died at this time.

"Oh?" Ying Zichu was also very surprised, but since Sima Jun did not object, Ying Zichu would not let such a good opportunity wait for Xiong Quan to speak, and quickly said: "In that case, then follow Xiangguo's words!"

"Here!"

"When will Zhuqing play?" After solving the problem in his heart, Ying Zichu also relaxed and asked casually.

"I have my own play!" Unexpectedly, Lu Buwei came out again.

Seeing Lu Buwei come out, Ying Zichu suddenly had an ominous premonition, "What's the matter with Aiqing?"

"I invite you to set up a prince!"

As soon as Lu Buwei said this, there was an uproar in the court again.

"Xiangguo's words are wrong!" This time, Xiong Quan did not keep silent.Things have come to this point, if Xiong Quan can't see anything unusual, he is not worthy to continue to stand on the court.

Obviously, the old Qin family has hooked up with the new Xiangguo.It is estimated that no matter what Ying Zichu said today, Sima Jun would object.

And Sima Jun, who has been with him for so long, must be aware of his character, especially when Yingzi Chu has a tendency to be self-reliant, he will definitely not stand up first and wave the flag for Yingzi Chu.

Then, under such circumstances, the only person Ying Zichu can turn to for help, and it has some weight, is the newly appointed Prime Minister Lu Buwei.

Next, it will be easier to explain, Lu Buwei came up with a way to get the best of both worlds for Ying Zichu.The old Qin family made way for him again. It can be said that Lu Buwei piled up Nuo Da's momentum for a while, and the power of Xiangguo was also instantly gained.

Proposing the matter of establishing a crown prince at this time, and getting the support of the old Qin family, will undoubtedly have more momentum than the old Qin family or Lu Buwei alone.

As for why the old Qin family supported Lu Buwei, it was even simpler.Yingzi Chu is only two sons now, and Ying Chengxun was born by Miwen, so he will definitely belong to the Chu family.Therefore, the old Qin family can only choose Yingzheng, whose matriarchal power is weak.Moreover, although Ying Zheng came back with great momentum, he still had no strength after all, which was the time to control it.

"I don't know what opinion Mr. Xiong Quan has?" Lu Buwei saluted Xiong Quan respectfully and asked.

Xiong Quan returned a salute, and said unhurriedly: "Your Majesty has just passed his thirties, and it is the time when he is in his prime. There is no need to establish a crown prince at this time. Besides, the two sons are young, and the future is unknown. .”

"Your Majesty Xiong Quan's words are wrong!" The old enemy Sima Jun immediately stood up again, "A country cannot be without a king for a day, especially recently, our Qin State has lost two new monarchs. The establishment of a prince at this time will undoubtedly reassure the people!"

Following the speeches of the two bigwigs, there were constant quarrels between the Qin and Chu clans in the court of Qin, and the entire court fell into chaos.

A cold light flashed in Ying Zichu's eyes. There were constant quarrels between the two factions, no doubt he, the King of Qin, was not taken seriously at all.Lu Buwei's calm expression also made Ying Zichu furious.

"Hehe, Buwei, are you taking revenge on the widow?" Ying Zichu sneered in his heart, "In that case, the widow will follow your wish. I don't know how long you can live between the two factions of Qin and Chu It's..."
