"Your Majesty, please calm down..." Ying Yiren quickly got up and knelt, then prostrated himself on the ground respectfully.

Ying Ji shook off Ying Zhu and said, "I am not dead yet. Go and ask them to put the things for Zheng'er in my palace. Zheng'er will live with me from now on. Get lost—"

If Tianmu hadn't appeared, he might not even know the existence of his little great-grandson.

On the sky curtain, Zhou Jia continued to narrate Ying Zheng's past:

"Ying Yiren was named the crown prince, and the nine-year-old Ying Zheng was brought back to Qin, becoming a true prince of Qin. However, his grandfather and father died too young, in 250 BC and 247 BC respectively. As a result, the thirteen-year-old Ying Zheng officially ascended the throne!"

In the Xianyang Palace, Ying Ji, who was about to sit on the throne, Ying Zhu, who was thrown away, and Ying Yiren, who got up from the ground and wanted to leave, all stopped at the same time.

WTF?

"Thirteen years old?" Ying Yiren looked up at his father and grandfather in front of him in confusion.

Yingji narrowed his eyes, "250 BC?"

If he remembered correctly, he seemed to have died in 251 BC. This guy lived one year longer than him!

Ying Zhu didn't expect that he would die so early, but he felt very wronged. It was not that he died too young, but that his father lived too long!

"However, the throne was unstable at a young age, so Ying Zheng appointed Prime Minister Lu Buwei as his 'father-in-law', and Lu Buwei controlled the national affairs. If he didn't find a way to take back the power as soon as possible, the Qin State would completely become Lu Buwei's private property. Under such constraints, time flew to 239 BC. After many years, the calm surface of the Qin State began to ripple again."

Everyone was listening attentively, but Zhou Jia suddenly stopped. Everyone looked at the screen in confusion, only to see Zhou Jia rubbing his brows with a complicated expression.

It’s not that Zhou Jia didn’t want to continue, but this involved the woman Zhao Ji, and he really didn’t know what tone to use to tell the story.

In the Xianyang Palace, as Zhou Jia stopped speaking, all the ministers fell silent. While others didn't understand what was going on, they understood it very well. They all lowered their eyes and stared at the ground, pretending to be dead.

Ying Zheng naturally knew what was happening next. There was no ripple in his heart. He even wanted to urge Zhou Jia to speak faster. He just wanted to know how their Great Qin was destroyed!

Zhou Jia didn't know what Ying Zheng was thinking. She rubbed her face with both hands, sighed, sat up straight and continued:

"Here we insert two new characters, one is called Lao Ai and the other is called Cheng Jiao. Cheng Jiao is the younger brother of Ying Zheng, while Lao Ai is the male favorite of Zhao Ji. Later, he gave birth to two children with Zhao Ji. As a result, he became very ambitious and confident. One day, after drinking, he shouted at the people around him in an extremely arrogant manner, saying something like: 'I am the emperor's stepfather, how dare you people go against me!'"

Zhou Jia sneered, looked at the live broadcast room with a mocking smile, and complained, "You are so shameless, don't you have any idea how you became the Marquis of Changxin and how you became a superior person?"

After rolling his eyes, she continued, "In short, with the favor of Zhao Ji and the halo of his two sons born with Zhao Ji, Lao Ai became more and more dissatisfied with being just a so-called Marquis of Changxin. In the end, he set his sights on the throne. He wanted to be king, the king of Daqin!

What's even more ironic is that Zhao Ji knew about Lao Ai's plan early on, but chose to remain silent and let Lao Ai point the sword at Ying Zheng. During this period, another incident happened. In 239 BC, Ying Zheng's younger brother, Chang'an Jun Cheng Jiao, led an army to attack Zhao State, but during the battle, Cheng Jiao rebelled. When this incident was reported back to Qin State, it caused an uproar. Ying Zheng, a child abandoned by his father since childhood, experienced the taste of being betrayed again after many years, and this was just the beginning.

In 239 BC, Cheng Jiao committed suicide in Tunliu, and her subordinates were beheaded. A year later, Ying Zheng held a coming-of-age ceremony in Qinian Palace in Yongcheng. Lao Ai, who had been building up his own power in Yongcheng, used the Qin King's seal and the Queen Mother's seal to launch a rebellion in an attempt to overthrow Ying Zheng's throne. However, he did not expect that Ying Zheng had already prepared for his rebellion and had already set up defenses in Qinian Palace. After being frustrated, Lao Ai turned to attack Xianyang Palace when he saw that Qinian Palace was not working, but he did not expect that Xianyang Palace had also been defended. In the end, Lao Ai fled alone.

However, the whole world belongs to the king, and Lao Ai was eventually caught and executed by being torn apart by chariots. From then on, Ying Zheng gradually showed his unique brilliance and courage. "

King Zheng of Qin, who had experienced the Qinnian Palace Incident, showed no sign of fluctuation in his expression. King Zheng of Qin and little Ying Zheng, who had not experienced it, clenched their fists silently.

"Zheng'er, I..."

Zhao Ji, who had just escaped from Zhao State with little Ying Zheng and got on the carriage back to Qin, turned pale and purple when she heard Zhou Jia's words. No matter what her future would be like, she did have some feelings for her son Ying Zheng now. After all, they had depended on each other for so many years.

"Mother, after we return to Qin, let's go and apologize to the king first." Little Ying Zheng looked up at him, with a calmness in his eyes that was not that of a child.

Zhao Ji nodded repeatedly. She was not stupid. She used to be proud of being the mother of Ying Zheng. But now that Zhou Jia had exposed these things, how could the King of Qin and his men let her go?

When she thought of the legendary Qin King Yingji, Zhao Ji trembled with fear. A pair of hands held her jade fingers, raised her eyes, and little Ying Zheng said firmly: "Don't be afraid, mother."

Zhao Ji held his little hand in return, trying to draw strength from him, and little Ying Zheng let her hold it without any impatience.

But Yingji was not as considerate as little Yingzheng. He directly overturned the documents in front of him, and his anger grew bigger and bigger, "Zhao Ji, what a Zhao Ji!"

Ying Yiren had never thought that Zhao Ji would dare to allow a male favorite to take away her son's throne. He was very unhappy at the moment, but he did not dare to complain or get angry in front of his grandfather. He immediately knelt down and begged for forgiveness, "Your Majesty, please forgive me."

Yingji looked into the distance, "After Zhao Ji comes back, continue to give her the honors she deserves, but never let her participate in political affairs, let alone make things difficult for Zheng'er, do you understand? And your son named Cheng Jiao, I will only say this once today, if I die, the throne will belong to Zheng'er, you just need to assist Zheng'er, no matter how many children you have, the throne will always belong to Zheng'er!"

It doesn’t matter whether Zhao Ji is alive or dead, but Ying Zheng is the future king of their Great Qin after all, and he can’t let his mother become a stain on Zheng’er.

"what?"

Ying Zhu looked at Ying Ji like a fool, and Ying Yiren was also a little surprised.

Were they rejected by the old man? He passed the throne to his great-grandson, skipping two generations of monarchs.

Looking at the dull eyes of these two idiots, Yingji felt very tired.

His biological father Ying Si was as tired as he was.

"Zhao Ji! How dare she!"

Ying Si went berserk. Mi Bazi glanced at him silently and continued to stare at the sky. Zhang Yi sipped tea silently. Neither of them paid any attention to Ying Si.

"She raised a male concubine and gave birth to an illegitimate child to seize the throne. I really underestimated her!"
