But Qin Che still has some thoughts of his own regarding the throne.
"It doesn't matter who becomes the emperor, the most important thing is that it doesn't affect me."
"I can wait until everything settles down in the palace, and then I'll go talk to the new emperor."
"He won't affect my practice, and I won't affect his becoming emperor. It's the best of both worlds."
Lizhu asked in confusion: "Then why don't we directly support the emperor we want."
Qin Che shook his head: "It's too troublesome for us to support one by ourselves.
You support him to take the position, and then you need to support him to sit firmly.
After he has settled down, you still need to support him in managing the world.
What's the difference between taking this trouble and being the emperor myself?
Just let those who are obsessed with the throne fight for it now, and wait until they fight for the most skillful and capable person to sit on the throne.
If we go talk to him again, we will save a lot of trouble in the future."
Qin Che's words made Li Zhu think of a word - raising gu.
It’s just that this Gu is the emperor of the Zhou Dynasty.
Now that Qin Che has decided, Lizhu doesn't want to persuade her anymore, so Lizhu changes her mind and asks: "You don't know the situation in Beijing now, do you?"
Qin Che answered truthfully: "I heard Lu'e say something, but I don't know the details."
"Then let me tell you about the current situation in the capital first, so that you can have an idea."
"That's fine."
With Qin Che's permission, Li Zhu also told Qin Che what happened in the palace during the past twenty days.
The current situation is that the death of Emperor Ming has been announced to the public.
At the same time, the new emperor who succeeded to the throne was the only son given birth to by Emperor Ming.
It's just that this son is only three years old, so he naturally cannot know how to be an emperor.
At present, the prince's biological mother, with the support of Li Wei, the governor of the Embroidery Department, listens to the government behind the curtain.
As the governor of the Embroidery Department, I rely on the prestige that the Embroidery Department has gained over the years.
With Li Wei's help, the government and the opposition were temporarily stable.
But at the same time, there are also undercurrents surging among the government and the opposition.
Prince Yu, who had previously retired, became very active again.
In addition to Prince Yu's original subordinates, they all returned to Prince Yu's command.
Many officials in the court also supported Prince Yu.
It's not that Prince Yu is really good, it's just that they hate the Embroidery Department.
The Embroidery Department has indeed gained a reputation in recent years, but the Embroidery Department has also offended too many people.
There are too many people who want people like the Embroidery Department to die miserably.
Now that Prince Yu has made a private promise, they are naturally willing to support Prince Yu.
As for the reasons for supporting Prince Yu, they are also very ‘honest and fair’.
The reason they said was that Li Wei, the embroidery chief, had an affair with the little emperor's biological mother behind Emperor Ming's back and gave birth to the little emperor.
The little emperor is actually not a bloodline of the Qin family, but a bastard.
They support Prince Yu, bring order to the chaos, and restore order to the world.
After listening to what Li Zhu said, Qin Che was really a little dumbfounded by this fair and just reason.
"Li Wei is a eunuch, does anyone believe such a nonsense reason?"
Lizhu replied: "It doesn't matter whether others believe it or not, as long as the people who took action believe that this is a true story."
"What other people think is completely unimportant."
"With this reason, we can get rid of Li Wei and at the same time get rid of the Ming Emperor's bloodline."
"This is a method that achieves multiple things with one stone and eliminates future troubles forever. No matter how you look at it, it is not a loss."
Qin Che nodded and agreed. This is a way to permanently eliminate future troubles.
In this way, Prince Yu really ascended the throne. Even if someone else had other ideas and wanted to support the descendants of Emperor Ming, he would not be able to find anyone.
"Which one of them do you think has a better chance of winning?" Qin Che asked Lizhu.
Lizhu shook her head and said: "It's hard to say. Although Prince Yu now has the support of civil servants and military generals, he also has the support of his old ministries in the past.
However, after several years of development, the Embroidery Department has also become a behemoth.
Especially within the imperial city, Prince Yu's power may be slightly at a disadvantage.
Unless..."
Qin Che took over what Lizhu said: "Unless we support one of them, right?"
Lizhu nodded: "At present, the most powerful people in the imperial city are the Embroidery Department and us.
Compared to the Embroidery Division, the Red Flame Army's combat effectiveness is obviously superior.
So I guess, both of them may send people to ask you for help next."
After listening to Lizhu's analysis, Qin Che said: "Then let's see who comes first. Whoever comes first we will choose as our support target."
After hearing Qin Che's casual reply, Lizhu said, "Didn't you just say that you should let them compete first, and then we will support the remaining one?"
Qin Che nodded, and then changed the topic: "But sometimes, luck is also a part of strength.
If someone comes to us first, that's good luck."
Lizhu felt that Qin Che was too childish about the throne.
But when we think about what Qin Che is pursuing, we can understand why Qin Che is so playful.
Compared with what Qin Che pursues, this human throne is indeed child's play.
"How far have you cultivated now? Why do we feel that you are so much stronger than the last time we met?" Lizhu asked, looking at Qin Che who was completely unable to see through.
"The third level of Qi gathering." Qin Che replied.
Although Lizhu had expected it, she was still surprised when she heard Qin Che's answer.
Lizhu said with a tone full of envy: "Your cultivation progress is too fast, don't you think there is no level at all?"
Martial arts is like this. It is easy to improve within a small level, but it is difficult to pass the level.
Regardless of whether it is a big or small level, it is very difficult to pass it.
It’s not that Qin Che doesn’t have any levels, it’s just that you can add points to all Qin Che’s levels.
"It must have been more than a year since you entered the third level of Qi Gathering, right?" Lizhu asked enviously as she looked at Qin Che, who was breathing like a deep breath.
Qin Che carefully calculated the time, then shook his head: "It won't be long, less than three months."
After listening to Qin Che's words, Lizhu looked at Qin Che in disbelief: "You said you entered the third level of Qi Gathering in less than three months?"
Qin Che nodded: "Yes."
"This is impossible, this is absolutely impossible!"
"The aura on your body now is almost the same as that of my father. How could it be possible that you have just entered the third level of Qi Gathering!"
After muttering to herself, Lizhu suddenly thought of a possibility, and quickly asked Qin Che for confirmation: "How many points of Qi Condensation did you enter into the third level of Qi Gathering?"
