Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 167 I Don't Promise
Chapter 167 I Don't Promise
Shangjun camp.

Today is the No. 12 day when Ying Zheng was in a coma.

Although Hu Yi's bloodletting method temporarily stabilized the spread of wolf's poison in Ying Zheng's body.

But this method of treating the symptoms but not the root cause can't completely cure the poison in Ying Zheng's body.Even the body's resistance will drop due to blood loss, which will lead to more violent backlash of toxins.

But Meng Tian doesn't care about these.

At this moment, he has chosen a road of no return.

All the chips are on Zhao Gang, as long as Ying Zheng can persist until Zhao Gang arrives, it doesn't matter if he drains his blood.

As long as there is one pill that Zhao Gang gave Ying Zheng to take, Ying Zheng will definitely be able to recover as before.

He is the backbone of everyone, and if he wants to act like this, it is naturally impossible for everyone to stop him.

Doctor Hu knelt on the ground and looked at the ten fingers that had not yet had scars.

"Your Majesty, His Majesty's blood has been exhausted from all ten fingers. It may not have any effect if it is pierced here again. I am afraid we have to choose other places to continue bloodletting."

"As long as it can delay the poison, it can be used anywhere on the whole body."

Doctor Hu thought for a while and replied: "This blood can't be released indiscriminately. There are still two places on the whole body where blood can be drawn."

"Which two places?" Dunwei asked beside him.

"One is the toes, and the other is the wrist. It's just that the toes are too far away from the heart meridian, so putting one finger at a time may not be effective."

"What about the wrist?"

"Once the wrist is cut, the wound is weak, but if the wound is too large, His Majesty the Emperor will lose his life at any time."

Meng Tian hesitated for a moment.

"Let's go to the toes first! Save the wrist for the last moment!"

Doctor Hu nodded: "Then I'll put blood on two toes at once." After finishing speaking, he swung a knife and began to bleed, while Meng Tian threw himself in front of Ying Zheng with a heavy expression.

"How long have Marquis Tongwu been gone? Have you arrived at Hangu at this time?" Feng Quji suddenly stood up and asked.

"Only fifteen hours have passed, even if you don't eat or drink, you can't get there. Besides, people can persist, but horses can't persist." Meng Tian said after analysis.

"Then...then what should we do? Such bloodletting is like drinking doves to quench thirst. If Zhao Gang's arrival cannot be sustained, wouldn't His Majesty even have the ability to pass orders..."

The first thing Feng Quji thought of at this moment was the important event of passing on the throne.

Ying Zheng has been in power for 33 years, and his eldest son Fusu is already in his 20s, but he has never considered establishing a prince.

The prince is the foundation of the country and the hope of the country's future.

As the emperor got older and older, many ministers wrote to ask His Majesty the Emperor to confer the crown prince to ensure that the Great Qin Dynasty lasts forever, but these requests were rejected by Ying Zheng one by one.

Zhao Gang appeared and offered the elixir, which made Ying Zheng's body look younger by dozens of years.The ministers were also temporarily blinded by this miraculous phenomenon, and forgot about this serious incident.

Now that Yingzheng was unconscious, and might even die at any moment, everyone thought of a key thing.

If the first emperor is not here, who is the second emperor of the empire?

The First Emperor had many descendants, many of whom were adults, and each had his or her own merits in terms of talents, learning and abilities.

The vast majority of supporters believe that the position of emperor must belong to the eldest son Fusu, but besides Fusu, there are many other voices.

Not to mention, the eighteenth prince Hu Hai is also the object of many people's attention.

But without an express edict, they did not dare to appoint a prince at will.After all, if Zhao Gang arrived at the last moment and saved the first emperor, if the first emperor Su Xing knew what they had done, no one in his heart could guarantee that he would think too much.

Doctor Hu was wondering in his heart while lowering his head to bleed.

The Emperor of Qin was clearly destined to die, and all his efforts had been drained away. If he wanted to save him, unless the Immortal Heaven came in person.

But these people are still waiting for a man named Zhao Gang, which is really unbelievable.

Is this Zhao Gang a god of Qin?

But since he is a god, why can't he come and go freely like Changsheng Tian, ​​and shuttle at will?Do you still need to run like a human?

Although he has never been to Xianyang, he has also heard mentions from some people who have been there.It takes several months to travel thousands of miles from outside the pass to Xianyang, and travel through mountains and rivers.The general who caught him just set off the day before yesterday, so he could reach Xianyang so quickly.

Isn't this a fool's dream!
Although Dr. Hu was thinking wildly in his head, he didn't dare to say anything more.

After all, his life was held in the hands of these horrible guys. If Ying Zheng was fine, maybe he could have escaped death.But if Zhao Gang didn't arrive, or if Zhao Gang did arrive, Ying Zheng couldn't be saved.

He cannot escape death.

"Prime Minister, where is your majesty's seal?" Meng Tian asked abruptly, the surrounding air seemed to freeze at this moment.

"What is the general asking this for?" Feng Quji instinctively took a step back, keeping a certain distance from Meng Tian.

The seal was supposed to be guarded by Zhao Gao, the order of the CRRC Mansion, but after Zhao Gao was deposed, the value of the order of the CRRC Mansion has been suspended, so the seal has been kept by Ying Zheng alone.

But since Yingzheng fell into a coma, many government affairs have been inconvenient.After discussing with Meng Tian and several other important ministers accompanying him, it was decided that Feng Quji would specialize in accounting and handle government affairs.

Now, Feng Quji is the only one who knows where the seal is.

"A country cannot be left without a master for a day. If the throne is vacant, the country will be unstable. I, Meng Tian, ​​has received the great kindness of the emperor, and I will never allow the empire to see half of the difference. Therefore, I can only temporarily appoint the crown prince for your majesty. If your majesty wakes up and wants to blame, it is up to you I, Meng Tian, ​​will bear it alone."

Feng Quji frowned slightly, neither agreeing nor objecting.

After thinking for a long time, he said, "Who is the general planning to establish?"

"Could it be that the prime minister's heart belongs to someone else? He must be the son Fusu."

Feng Quji thought for a moment, especially after screening the many heirs of the first emperor one by one, and finally agreed: "Okay, since the general has this intention, I will write the edict."

As he spoke, he asked someone to fetch pen, ink and paper.

Since the advent of paper, many of Ying Zheng's important documents have been written on this paper.

First, paper is valuable and easy to write on, and second, it is easy to store and not easy to lose.

Feng Quji spread out the paper, moistened the nib of the pen, looked at the crowd, and made a final confirmation.

"The eldest son, Fusu, is talented and has outstanding moral character. He is deeply loved by His Majesty the Emperor. His Majesty is now in a coma and does not know whether he is alive or dead. Without a heir, the country will be unstable. We will take matters into our own hands and appoint the crown prince first."

After saying that, Feng Quji paused and asked, "What do you think of the eldest son?"

"We all agree that the eldest son will inherit the throne."

Feng Quji nodded with satisfaction, picked up the pen and said: "Since everyone is of the same mind, then I..."

"If Fusu, that ambitious man, tries to usurp the throne, I, Zhao Gang, will be the first to refuse."
