Chapter 613 The King of Zhou quits the group, his own job
One day later, Qin Yang received the news that King Zhou was dead.
The news that came out was that after his identity was exposed, King Zhou knelt in front of the memorial tablets of many royal ancestors in the ancestral temple, and committed suicide before he could verify his bloodline.
After Qin Yang heard the news, he completely let go of his last bit of uncertainty.
Even if you don't know the information that Emperor Ying himself is trapped in the sea of thoughts and is unlikely to appear again for the time being, after so many years, what kind of person Emperor Ying is and what he cares about should be clear to anyone who has had a lot of contact with him.
It's a pity that it's easier said than done.
To put it mildly, King Zhou's merits were that he was forbearing enough and was cruel enough to himself. However, he had been holding back for too long. In essence, he was still a coward deep in his heart, the cowardice when facing Emperor Ying.
He was born in the royal family and grew up in the shadow of Emperor Ying. A thought from Emperor Ying could make him a prince, and similarly, a thought could make him fall into the abyss.
He was so afraid of Emperor Ying that he didn't dare to show anything bad about him.
Externally, King Zhou has always had a good reputation. He is kind and generous to others. He is not as arrogant as King Zhao, nor has he done anything as outrageous as the old prince.
In the affairs of the court, many of the things he mentioned can be regarded as being dedicated to the victory and doing many good deeds. Even if it was because of the fight for the rightful son, he had never fought as hard as King Zhao and the old prince.
It flows and affects countless people.
He has fallen into obsession, fearing that Emperor Ying will see something bad, and that Emperor Ying's butcher knife will fall at any time.
I strive for perfection, but I don’t know that I have been imperfect since birth.
Ever since Duke Dai came to him, he had made a mistake in the first step, and he had made mistakes every step of the way. In the end, he did not dare to admit in front of Emperor Ying that there was something inherently wrong with his bloodline.
Emperor Ying completely lost his last bit of patience.
Qin Yang looked at the sky, thinking about the place where King Zhou finally committed suicide. Looking back, he suddenly had a small idea.
No one knows, and people have always speculated, why this ruthless, ruthless and decisive emperor made the King of Zhou a prince.
Maybe at that time, Emperor Ying had already decided to regard King Zhou as his heir.
The old prince was born too early and had congenital defects. It was destined to be killed by Emperor Ying. Choosing another prince might have been foreseen by Emperor Ying a long time ago.
As for King Zhao, a guy who is neither good nor bad, he was destined to have no chance to climb Dabao from the beginning. He is more like a whetstone.
Qin Yang was quite dumbfounded. He wanted to laugh but didn't know how to laugh.
If it had not been for him, if there had been no previous dynasty, it would have been doomed from the beginning for King Zhou to take the throne smoothly.
If this were the case, and if the King of Zhou could understand this earlier, there would be no further story.
It was a dream game where the king made four doubles at the beginning, and lost in the end. It would be better for the king of Zhou not to know about it. If he knew about it, he would have to lie to him even if he died.
Shaking his head, Qin Yang stopped thinking about it. He couldn't possibly know the truth, even if his little guess was correct.
He still has business to do next.
A recent incident was that King Zhou committed suicide in the ancestral temple without passing the blood test. This was the last dignity given by Emperor Ying. The funeral of King Zhou should still be held. Since the funeral is held, he will be treated like a prince.
It is also necessary to enter the Dragon Vein Ancestral Court.
Organizing funerals, no one else but me, this kind of thing is the job of his right minister in the Ministry of Etiquette.
Furthermore, when people die and their grudges disappear, those who should be saved should still be saved.
Regardless of whether the previous dynasty had other back-up plans, as long as they entered the Dragon Vein Ancestral Court, they had to be saved first, so that they would not be able to do anything they wanted to do.
The next big thing, of course, is to push the wedding dress to the position of the princess.
The old prince, King Zhao, and King Zhou were all in despair. All the princes of Emperor Ying were dead, and the remaining ones were all grandchildren or great-grandchildren. None of these people were qualified to compete.
At this time, when the wedding dress comes to the throne, it is not a matter of competing for the position of prince, but a helpless choice.
The so-called crown prince is the backup emperor.
If something happens to Emperor Ying, the crown prince will immediately take over and stabilize the overall situation.
If Emperor Ying leaves the capital, he will also need a prince to oversee the country.
As for the upcoming Ten Thousand Years Ceremony, Emperor Ying must go there in person, and he must not let anyone else do it for him. When he goes out to wander around, he must have a talker in Lidu, and this person can only be the crown prince.
Based on the current situation and the background of the wedding dress, the difficulty of ascending to the position is already the lowest. We only need to deal with the main objections that may arise, and the matter will be stable.
So now, the matter of killing Emperor Ying's dharma body has to be put on the agenda...
As soon as this thought emerged, Qin Yang immediately killed it, even completely cut out the thought, turned it into a dream ball and stored it.
I may have to see Emperor Ying more than once recently, so it's better not to have this thought.
Looking at everyone except the previous dynasty, whether it was the old prince or the kings of Zhao and Zhou, they definitely had no intention of killing Emperor Ying.
What if you have such malicious thoughts in your heart when you are around Emperor Ying, and Emperor Ying will sense it?
It's better to be on the safe side. As for the idea of pushing the wedding dress to the top, given the current situation, it's not a big deal if someone finds out. Anyway, if the previous things are found out, it will at best be a legitimate heir.
His nature is completely different from wanting to kill Emperor Ying.
While I was thinking about it, the chamberlain from the palace came.
"Master Qin, is he in the mansion?"
The chamberlain stood in a safe area outside the Jedi Manor and shouted to the manor from afar.
Qin Yang came out and saw the other party's dress, the aura unique to a chamberlain, and the gray hair on his temples. It was obvious that he had a high status in the palace, so he smiled and held his hand.
"What do you call me, father-in-law? But Your Majesty has something to do?"
"Your Majesty Qin, you are so polite. The old servant's common surname is Wang, and he is the Young Supervisor of Ceremonies. On the order of the Chief Supervisor, he came to deliver a message to Mr. Qin. His Highness King Zhou committed suicide. The subsequent handling will require Mr. Qin to take a lot of trouble.
.”
"It turns out to be the prince. I also asked the prince to reply on his behalf. Qin should do his best to handle the matters within his scope."
"The old slave's message has arrived, so I say goodbye. Lord Qin will stay."
Lao Wang said politely, turned and left.
Qin Yang looked at Lao Wang's back from a distance, wondering in his heart, what did the old eunuch mean? He actually sent a young eunuch to deliver the message in person.
The king of Zhou committed suicide, but his identity as a prince still existed, so the funeral should naturally be handled according to the funeral rites of a prince.
As the right minister of the Ministry of Rites in charge of this aspect, he has no shirking responsibility. He has been fishing for so long and finally died a man of status. He has important things to do, so he definitely can't ignore it.
Do these people think that he doesn't want to deal with King Zhou and is not even willing to do his job properly?
Am I, Qin Youde, that kind of person?
No matter how much hatred you had in life, as long as the other person is dead, you will be treated equally.
Eh?
Qin Yang scratched his head and suddenly understood.
Is this because he is afraid that he will be like a soft-shelled turtle, biting until he dies without letting go?
When he thought of this, Qin Yang immediately packed up his things and left the capital.
When they came to the Ministry of Rites again, which they had not been to for a long time, many people were a little surprised when they saw Qin Yang.
Qin Yang found his office. It was deserted and not popular at all. It had been vacant for a long time.
When he saw the people gathered outside with strange looks in their eyes, as if they wanted to say something but didn't dare to say it, Qin Yang became very angry.
"What are you looking at? You have something serious to do now, why are you so free? You don't need to prepare in advance?"
Qin Yang walked to the door and spit.
Someone who had worked with Qin Yang asked cautiously.
"Sir, we are preparing for the funeral ceremony of His Royal Highness King Zhou. You..."
"What am I?" Qin Yang glared and was very unhappy: "You bastards, do you think I am the kind of person who only knows how to hold grudges without knowing the importance of things? No matter what His Highness King Zhou has done in the past, he can wake up and wake up.
I deeply feel that I have betrayed the grace of God and committed suicide in shame. No matter what happened in the past, it is no longer important. With your Majesty's trust, we must put our own responsibilities first. Why are you still dawdling here?"
"No need to prepare for His Royal Highness King Zhou's funeral ceremony?"
"Have you prepared everything that needs to be prepared?"
"Are you so free?"
"What are you still looking at? Why don't you hurry up and move!"
Qin Yang sprayed his men all over in one breath, and those people dispersed in a hurry. Even now, they are still in disbelief.
It was widely rumored in private that Qin Yang had a sharp mind, and after being targeted by the King of Zhou, he dug up a big deal with his backhand.
Unexpectedly, it seems that it is quite inconsistent with the rumors.
Thinking about the rumors that were flying all over the sky before, even the massacre of the family more than a thousand years ago could be pinned on Mr. Qin, now such small rumors are simply not worth mentioning.
I'm afraid this is another villain, gossiping behind their backs and slandering their Lord Qin.
With this thought, everyone felt relieved.
I still can't believe everything, especially the rumors about Mr. Qin.
One day later, when the formal order came to Qin Yang, Qin Yang had almost prepared everything that needed to be prepared.
The main reason is that there are a lot of idle people in the Ministry of Rites. Those who used to follow Qin Yang to prepare for the old prince's funeral were not welcome. Since Qin Yang became the right minister, these people were naturally assigned to Qin Yang.
But there are too few times when they can be used on weekdays. Qin Yang doesn't even come to work, and everyone has no backbone. Everything they do is targeted. When they want to do something, there is no one to get it done, so they can just support themselves together.
But this time, everyone found that everything they did went smoothly.
No matter who it was, once they heard that it was Master Qin who sent him to do something, they all cooperated very well.
In just one day, all the preliminary preparations were completed.
Even the palace of Prince Zhou, from the mourning hall to various decorations, were all properly arranged.
"Speaking of which, I think there are rumors that Mr. Qin is petty and vengeful, which is not a bad thing."
A boss who is always busy, sighs with his colleagues when he is free.
Qin Yanggang overthrew the king of Zhou and became famous.
Things that have lasted for tens of thousands of years and been hidden so deeply can be picked out by Qin Yang. This piece of shit has some dark history that cannot be found out. No matter who it is now, no one wants to provoke Qin Yang.
.
Not to mention giving Qin Yang eye drops when it comes to business matters.
"Don't talk nonsense." The colleague next to him scolded him in a low voice.
"Do you think we should defend Mr. Qin? I think they have a deep misunderstanding of Mr. Qin."
"Justice is in the heart of the people. Mr. Qin is upright and upright, so he definitely doesn't care about this." The colleague said a few words with a righteous look, turned around and left.
The boss looked at the backs of his colleagues and felt that something was not right.
I went out to do some work again, and when I returned to the government office, I finally realized something was wrong. It was so comfortable to have a notorious boss.
Let others misunderstand it.
…
Miyagi.
Qin Yang was ordered to come and report.
"Your Majesty, all the matters that the Ministry of Rites should do have been prepared. I just wonder, Your Majesty, what arrangements should be made next?"
"Do you have any doubts?" Emperor Ying was also a little surprised at Qin Yang's efficiency.
"I don't have any doubts. It's just that according to the normal protocol, His Royal Highness the King of Zhou has the title of prince and should enter the Dragon Vein Ancestral Court. But there are rules in the protocol. Death in battle, exhaustion of life span... will comply with the rules.
His Royal Highness the King of Zhou hanged himself, which is not consistent.
Please also ask Your Majesty to clarify how to deal with it."
Emperor Ying pondered for a moment.
"Enter the Dragon Vein Ancestral Court."
"According to the decree."
As they were leaving the palace, they happened to see Wei Xingchao entering the palace. Qin Yang quickly went up to stop Wei Xingchao and asked in a low voice.
"Old Wei, you are really unkind. I worked with you to attract many thieves and annihilated them in one fell swoop. Isn't that just a blow to you? It was also for the sake of everything going well and the overall situation.
Why did you turn around and spread rumors that I have a heart as sharp as a needle and can hold a grudge for a lifetime?"
"Nonsense! No! It's not me!" Wei Xing's eyelids twitched and he flatly denied it.
This kind of scapegoat must not be carried away. If you do, Qin Yang will definitely remember him for the rest of his life.
"Old Wei, you are still the leader of the Dingtian Division. How can you dare to do it? This rumor spread silently within a day. Who else can do it except you?"
"This time it really has nothing to do with me!" Wei Xingchao smiled bitterly and said it very sincerely.
"This time? So you mean you were responsible for spreading rumors last time?"
"..."
Wei Xingchao's face turned purple, his lips were trembling and he couldn't speak. He was so angry that he wanted to beat Qin Yang to death.
Every time I talk to Qin Yang, I get angry almost to death. Why is this bitch so annoying?
"It doesn't matter if you say it has nothing to do with me, believe it or not!"
Wei Xingchao said a word firmly, turned around and left.
Qin Yang stood there, a little confused, maybe it wasn't Lao Wei who did it, so who was slandering him behind his back.
After leaving the palace, he went straight to Prince Zhou's Mansion.
The mourning hall has been set up here, the coffin lid is open, and the body of King Zhou is lying inside. Now is the time to pay homage to the body.
It's a pity that there are really not many people who can come at this time.
When the people inside saw Qin Yang, except for the people from the Ministry of Rites, the rest of them didn't look good on Qin Yang.
Qin Yang ignored them and just put on the incense sticks and stood aside staring at King Zhou's coffin in a daze.
After watching it for a while, I found a subordinate and asked.
