The death of King Qin and his edict are all related to Lu Buwei.
Lu Buwei used secret spells to confuse people's hearts, bribed King Qin's attendants, and offered elixirs to King Qin who was seriously ill.
It doesn't matter that the elixir is too supplementary and may extend King Qin's lifespan, as long as it achieves its purpose.
The imperial edict was changed by changing the circumstances, but in recent years he has been secretly slandering Mr. Zhu, spreading rumors and causing King Qin to question him many times, which has shaken his status in the minds of the ministers.
On the contrary, Mr. An has been at home honestly for ten years, so it is logical that he will become King Qin.
According to Lu Buwei's rumor, it was King Qin who was trying to train his son. If you want to be a king, you must learn to be a loner.
…
In the 321st year of the Linghai calendar, King An, who had been on the throne for less than a year, suddenly became seriously ill, and his illness rapidly worsened and passed away.
This was not done by Lu Buwei. Lu Buwei wished he could do it for a few more years.
Because after King An ascended the throne, the princes who were his contemporaries refused to obey him, and the situation in the Qin State court was unstable. Although Prince Zhuang's accession to the throne was justified, there was still a lot of suspense about whether he could ascend the throne.
However, the Qin clan came forward to suppress all parties and finally helped Prince Zhuang.
Lu Buwei breathed a sigh of relief and quickly sent treasures to each family.
At the same time, Lu Buwei had another thought.
Because King Zhuang missed Zhu Ya and wanted to bring Zhu Ya back.
Lu Buwei was not thinking about the woman Zhu Ya, but the child beside her.
It was obviously his son Lu Buwei, but Prince Zhuang thought he was his son, which became interesting.
It's just that he offended Zhu Ya a lot, and it was very difficult to get Zhu Ya to listen to him.
But he believed he could convince Zhu Ya because Zhu Ya wanted to be the queen.
…
In the 322nd year of the Linghai Kingdom, there were still six years before the expiry of the twenty-year alliance between the five kingdoms of Qin, Zhao Wei, and Han.
After more than a year of lobbying and spending countless money, Lu Buwei finally took Zhu Ya and her son Zheng Gongzi away from Zhaodu on November 20 with the feeling of going home to celebrate the New Year.
After Zhu Ya gained his freedom, the first thing he did was not to return to Qin, but to go to Buzhou Mountain City.
Lu Buwei didn't want to go, so he had no choice but to go along. The worst he could do was just disappear.
…
December 10th, outside Buzhoushan City, in the fields.
Yamazaki saw Zhu Ya's motorcade coming and saw her getting off the bus with a child, so he probably guessed that it was about becoming a disciple.
Sure enough, Zhu Ya pulled her son over and bowed down.
"My child, follow your mother and kowtow to your husband."
"Don't worry."
Yamazaki supported the child and ignored Zhu Ya. She had a lot of karma, and he could bear it even if he knelt a few times.
But this kid can't do it. If he is forced to kneel down, it will be another big pitfall.
Looking at the smiling child, Yamazaki's mood fluctuated.
"Let me be clear first, what is this for?"
"Mr. Zhu Yaqiu accepts my son as his disciple."
"You know, I won't accept a disciple unless he is willing to practice with me and become a wandering cloud and wild crane."
Yamazaki is serious. This son has endless karma and has killed countless people. If he stays, he can bear some of the karma. Anyway, he has many merits now.
Zhu Ya was very reluctant, "But hasn't sir been following Zhou Yanyu?"
Yamazaki touched his beard, "Cause and effect are different. Zhou Yanyu was a baby when she met Lao Chan. Lao Chan could only take her to find her relatives. This is fate."
"This child is now grown up, and you are here as his mother. If you had sent him here as soon as he was born and then stayed here, his fate would have been different."
Zhu Ya retreated and asked for the next best thing, "Sir, can you tell me what Zheng'er's destiny is?"
"Last time you came here, didn't you say you didn't believe in fate?"
"Sir, that was Zhu Ya's mistake. Sir, don't worry about it."
Yamazaki laughed, "I'm even better at talking."
Zhu Ya bowed again and said, "Sir, please have mercy and tell my son's fortune."
Yamazaki looked at the secretly sulking Mr. Masato and knew that he was holding a grudge against him. He couldn't help but shook his head and sighed: "Don't forget it, this child is the emperor's destiny."
"Really?" Zhu Ya was extremely surprised.
Mr. Zheng was also stunned. He raised his head and took a closer look. This old man with a scratchy beard and eyebrows did not know what he was talking about.
Yamazaki sighed, "Zhu Ya, your son has been trapped in Zhaodu with you for more than ten years. He has experienced more hardships than you have seen."
Mr. Zheng was agitated. He never expected that I would know this bad thing.
Yamazaki touched his head and said, "This kid has been bullied openly or covertly. He has nowhere to vent his resentment. All he can do is practice, practice, and practice again."
"It just so happens that he is extremely talented. He is a metal shaman, and his training method is also quite suitable."
"Actually, this kid should have developed his magic power long ago, but he must have been hiding his power, so he suppressed it."
Mr. Zheng is stupid, how come this old man knows everything?
Yamazaki continued, "This turned out to be a success for him. His innate true energy is quite pure. As long as he pays attention to the progress of his cultivation and is not greedy for speed, he will be able to form a golden elixir on his own within ten years."
"With the attack power of the metallic shaman, his strength is enough to sweep across Qindu. The King of Qin's clan can't even think of making him the prince."
"Thank you for your advice, sir," Zhu Ya bowed again with a smile, and then stood up, "Then Zhu Ya won't disturb sir."
"Zheng'er, thank you sir quickly and say goodbye to him."
"Thank you for your advice, sir." Mr. Masato saluted respectfully. He was really unruly and somewhat convinced of Yamazaki.
Yamazaki wanted to say more, but found that Zhu Ya had already taken him away, and told him to keep it secret as he walked away.
Mr. Zheng also understood the benefits and decided not to tell anyone.
Yamazaki was speechless, there was no need to be in such a hurry.
"Zhu Ya, if this child cultivates properly, he will be able to sweep the world with his magic power."
"However, what he practices is the Jie Jiao technique. The cause and effect are profound. If he fails to do good to the world after becoming king, he will probably be attacked by a group of people."
"Mr. Zheng, you must be careful not to kill people indiscriminately. Merit is very important."
Yamazaki didn't know if they listened. Anyway, he said everything that needed to be said, and the rest depended on each person's fate.
…
Zhu Ya and his son rushed back to Qindu, just in time for the New Year.
Lu Buwei was worshiped as Prime Minister because he presented the map.
Prince Zheng had a mansion, while Zhu Ya was only a seventh-grade concubine.
Because she used to be Lu Buwei's person, and in terms of status, she was just a concubine. Giving her seventh rank was already high, so if she wanted to be promoted, she could only take her time.
This made Zhu Ya so angry that she was filled with anger. She was once a majestic Princess of Zhou.
But for the sake of her son, she endured it all, which she also learned in Zhaodu.
…
Two years later (November 325 of the Linghai calendar) King Zhuang died of illness.
In fact, it was Zhu Ya who killed him secretly. She was a real golden elixir, and she came from the capital of Zhou Dynasty and knew a lot of magic.
I killed him out of hatred. I hated him for dragging her to the capital of Zhao. I hated him for abandoning their mother and son. I hated him for being incompetent in his affection.
All in all, I hate him so much that I would kill him.
This is also karma. He was the one who taught Zhu Ya, the former Princess of Zhou, to learn how to kill, but she was forced out of the capital of Zhao.
…
Under Lu Buwei's strong support, the King Qin clan, which had lobbied everywhere and accepted a large amount of his property, agreed to let Prince Zheng ascend the throne at a young age.
Because of the strength of Mr. Zheng, he can really defeat all the princes. Although due to his younger age, he is not strong enough to sweep Qindu, Qindu can no longer stop him.
It is conceivable that if he causes trouble and the Qin State Council splits, if he cannot be killed, he will definitely kill him within a few years.
In this case, it is better to let him be the king, which can make Qin stronger and not decline due to the struggle for the throne.
