Chapter 57 The Emperor Qin's Hatred
Upon receiving Ying Chen's promise, Chen Cong and Chen Cong both smiled. They knew that the Chen family had completely boarded Ying Chen's chariot, and from now on, they would share both glory and ruin.
"Your Highness, I am unable to accompany you to the capital as I am stationed at Zhenman Pass. Therefore, my son will go with you and may assist you if necessary!"
Chen Feng said to Ying Chen.
Ying Chen nodded and agreed, "Alright! If anything happens at Zhenman Pass, you can come to Shuoyang City to find General Guan Yu, and he will help you!"
"Here!"
Afterwards, Chen Cong returned to Zhenman Pass, since Zhenman Pass couldn't do without him, while Chen Feng stayed in Shuoyang City, by Ying Chen's side.
...............
The next day.
Everything was ready, and the entire army of 200,000 had boarded the flying ships.
Outside Shuoyang City.
Ying Chen bid farewell to Xun Yu and Guan Yu, and led Zhao Yun, Dian Wei and Guo Jia onto the flying boat.
As for Lu Bing, he is currently busy with the expansion of the Embroidered Uniform Guard and the intelligence gathering in the capital. He has already gone to the capital ahead of time.
After they boarded, the airship slowly took off.
Hundreds of flying ships sailed together, blotting out the sky, towards the capital.
After watching the flying boat depart, Xun Yu and Guan Yu returned to Shuoyang City.
With these two men in Liangzhou, one a scholar and the other a warrior, nothing will ever go wrong!
..................
Imperial capital.
In the imperial study room.
Emperor Qin, seated on his dragon throne, asked, "Has there been any news from Liangzhou recently?"
His personal eunuch quickly stepped forward and respectfully reported, "Your Majesty, there is no news!"
The Emperor Qin nodded, looked at Li Dehai, the personal eunuch who had followed him since childhood, and said, "Do you think that rebellious son will obediently return to the capital?"
Li Dehai bowed and said with a smile, "His Highness the Prince of Liang would absolutely not dare to disobey your orders. He will obediently hand over command of those 200,000 cavalrymen and follow the angel back to the capital..."
Upon hearing his words, the Emperor Qin smiled with satisfaction.
"Haha! You really know how to talk!"
The Emperor Qin laughed loudly and said...
"Your Majesty! General Wu requests an audience!"
Just then, a voice came from outside.
The Emperor Qin frowned slightly and asked, "What is he doing here?"
Since Wu Yuande publicly supported the King of Liang at the last court assembly, he has felt distrustful of Wu Yuande.
Ultimately, they weren't trained by me, so there's no loyalty to speak of.
"Let him in!"
"I am impatient," Qin Shi Huang said.
"Here!"
A moment later, footsteps sounded from outside.
Qin Shi Huang frowned. He sensed two auras outside. One of them belonged to Wu Yuande, and the other aura felt somewhat familiar, but he couldn't quite place it.
Squeak~~
The door of the imperial study was opened.
The Emperor Qin looked at the person who walked in from outside the door, his pupils contracted slightly, and he quickly stood up and went to greet the person.
"Grandpa Emperor, what brings you here?"
The visitor was none other than Ying Tianzong, the former emperor of the Qin Dynasty.
"Hmph! If I hadn't come, wouldn't my eldest grandson have been harmed by you!"
Ying Tianzong said in an annoyed tone.
"Grandfather, what are you saying! How could I possibly harm your eldest grandson?"
The Emperor Qin was somewhat confused and did not know what Ying Tianzong was talking about.
"If Yuande hadn't come to me, I would still be in the dark! Xiao Liu is such an outstanding prince, and not only do you not entrust him with important responsibilities, but you also strip him of his military power and summon him back to the capital. For the sake of the Qi family, you want to punish a royal prince!"
"Hmph, in the end, it's because you're incompetent. The ruler of a dignified dynasty actually grovels and fawns over a noble family!"
"How could I have ever chosen you and passed the throne to such a useless piece of trash!"
Ying Tianzong unleashed a torrent of words, leaving the Qin Emperor utterly speechless. He could only glare resentfully at Wu Yuande behind Ying Tianzong out of the corner of his eye.
But Wu Yuande seemed completely oblivious to his gaze, keeping his eyes down and his mind elsewhere.
"Grandfather, I only summoned the Prince of Liang back to the capital to understand the situation, not to punish him! As for taking away the Prince of Liang's military power, his cavalry is more powerful than my imperial guards, and I feel a little uneasy about it!"
"I am speaking cautiously," Qin Shi Huang said.
"What's there to know? The Qi family colluded with the Dark Pavilion to assassinate the Prince of Liang. That alone is enough to warrant the extermination of their entire clan!"
"As for the fact that the cavalry under the Liang King are more elite than the Imperial Guards, that's just your incompetence. If you were willing to train them, would the Imperial Guards be in this state now?"
"Now that the King of Liang has trained an elite cavalry force, you still want to reap the rewards? Where is your shame?"
Ying Tianzong didn't hold back and gave the Qin Emperor a good scolding. If it weren't for the great importance of the emperor's position and the fact that he couldn't be deposed easily, he would have deposed the Qin Emperor long ago and made his great-grandson Ying Chen the emperor of Qin.
"Grandfather, please calm down. The imperial decree has already been issued, and it's too late to change it. Why don't we wait until the Prince of Liang arrives in the capital before discussing it? What do you think?"
The Emperor Qin reassured him.
"Hmph, if I find out that you are doing something to harm my grandson, then you might as well resign from your post as Emperor Qin!"
Ying Tianzong snorted coldly, then flicked his sleeves and walked outside.
The Emperor Qin watched Ying Tianzong's departing figure, a murderous intent lurking deep in his eyes.
You have already abdicated, and I am now the Emperor of Qin. Why do you still interfere in the affairs of Qin?
They even want to depose me.
At this moment, the Qin Emperor's hatred for Ying Tianzong reached its peak, and he also harbored even greater resentment towards Ying Chen.
It's all because of him that so many things have happened. Why don't you just be a good-for-nothing and behave yourself?
Why did they suddenly become famous and cause such a commotion?
After Ying Tianzong left, Qin Huang straightened up, looked at Wu Yuande with icy eyes, and said in a cold voice, "General Wu, you've really made a good plan! You actually thought of using the retired emperor to pressure me!"
"It seems I've been a very incompetent emperor! Does General Wu miss his old master that much?"
"Your Majesty, I do not know what you are talking about! As for the matter of the Emperor Emeritus, I believe that the Emperor Emeritus has the right to know about these matters!"
Wu Yuande bowed respectfully and pretended to be confused.
The main theme is "I don't know," "I'm not sure," and "I don't understand."
"Hmph! You can go now!"
The Emperor Qin waved his hand with a gloomy expression and said.
"I resign!"
Wu Yuande said something and slowly withdrew from the imperial study.
No sooner had he left the imperial study than the sound of things being smashed and the Qin Emperor's furious roar echoed from inside.
Wu Yuande turned his head slightly, smiled knowingly, and left the palace with a beaming smile.
"Your Majesty, please calm down!"
Inside the imperial study, Li Dehai knelt on the ground, trembling, as the Qin Emperor's divine power was released without any restraint.
His eyes turned bloodshot, he was breathing heavily, and wisps of black mist emanated from his body, making him appear extremely frenzied.
