Seeing the submission of all the ministers, Zhiyu finally realized what it was like to be the common master of the world.

"Zhao Gao has made great contributions to quelling the rebels and capturing the treasonous ministers. He is now the Prime Minister of Zuo. He sits on an equal footing with Li Si and jointly assists Gu's imperial hegemony!"

Zhiyu was very proud to be sitting on the throne. He looked at Li Si and wanted to kill him with an imperial decree, but looking at Zhao Gao's expression, he knew that this was not the time.

"Today Guchu ascends the throne. I am grateful for the teachings of the late emperor. Naturally, I am also grateful for the Queen Mother's kindness in raising me. Today I specially invite the Queen Mother to come to the palace to celebrate Gu."

Zhiyu wants Shimi to see with her own eyes how she ascended to the throne, and how she stepped on the corpses of her beloved children to reach her current position step by step!

Don’t you love Fusu Yixin? Now they are all dead! I will also send Yihua to the Huns for marriage, so that you two, mother and daughter, will never see each other again!

His plan was calculated step by step, and when Shimi walked into the palace step by step, everyone discovered that the general following her turned out to be Wang Jian, who had disappeared for a long time!

It is well known to all the old ministers that the late emperor loved and trusted Wang Jian during his lifetime. Now that even Wang Jian is back, naturally something big will happen!

"Queen Mother... I have just ascended the throne for the first time today. If there is anything wrong with me, please teach me as carefully as before."

Zhiyu held his head high, looking like a winner.

Shiya stood in the hall, first looking around at the ministers present, she sneered a few times and didn't know what she meant. The ministers saw her cold look and did not dare to say anything, so they could only lower their heads and remain silent.

"Your Majesty? Where do you come from, Your Majesty?"

Shikiya sneered.

"You...the emperor? You have neither the imperial edict of the late emperor nor the imperial seal to prove it. Why...why should you be the emperor?!"

Seeing that she came prepared, Zhiyu didn't feel guilty or afraid. He walked up to Shiya with bold steps and asked with a smile

"Now that the prince was poisoned and his son also died in the riots, who else can inherit the throne?"

At this time, Zhao Gao also followed him to the palace. He was not timid. When he saw Shi Mi and Wang Jian coming to investigate, he raised his voice and questioned all the officials present.

"Since both the crown prince and the grandson met with misfortune, isn't it true that the young master is the only one who can inherit the throne? As the queen mother now, you should bear in mind the late emperor's wishes and assist the new emperor in enthroning the throne. How can you sow discord between the emperor and his ministers here? !”

"what?"

Shikiya sneered.

"Ha ha ha ha--"

Her eyes were filled with murderous intent, and she couldn't help but laugh.

"How can you, a slave eunuch, be qualified to stand here in the imperial court now? Discuss national affairs with us?! All the ministers present have made contributions to the Qin Dynasty. You? You are a slave? How dare you? If you preach to me, I’m afraid you will lose your life!”

"Zhao Gaonai is my new prime minister! How come he is not qualified?!"

Zhiyu immediately retorted, Shimi was not afraid of him. She continued to look at the two clowns coldly, then looked around, watching the ministers bow their heads in silence, and cursed again

"The ministers in this hall today are all old ministers who have assisted the late emperor. Now there are traitors in the Qin State, which is causing chaos. It seems that the Qin State is about to be torn into pieces. There is not one of you. Stand up and stop it, and start acting with this clown!"

As she said that, she glanced at Li Si

“I don’t know how to save the country, and yet I collude with traitors. It’s really abominable!!”

Seeing how angry she was, Zhiyu immediately shouted

"Come here, take the Queen Mother out alone! The Queen Mother has been hit hard in recent days and is unconscious!"

He approached Shikiya and threatened again

"If you don't shut up, believe it or not, I will find out about Yihua's fate later?!"

As soon as Dang Zhiyu finished speaking, a guard hurried over.

"Reporting to Your Majesty, the little princess's palace is empty. She escaped at some point!"

"What did you say?!"

Zhiyu turned to look at Wang Jian

"When did you rescue her?!"

Wang Jian ignored it and continued to help Shimi walk to the throne.

"The late emperor ordered the prince to help Su succeed to the throne. Now that the prince has been poisoned by a traitor, his son should succeed him! When will it be your turn to show off your power?!"

"The youngest son is dead! How...how to succeed to the throne?!"

Zhiyu felt bad and wanted to refute, but saw a child slowly walking into the hall.

"When did I tell you that my grandson is dead? He escaped only after being escorted all the way. The throne is now vacant and he should inherit the throne. But you... colluded with traitors to bring trouble to the imperial court and killed your relatives to seize the throne. You should be punished and executed. !!”

Shimi waved his hand and shouted:

"Come here! Bring this treacherous son who is trying to usurp the throne to me! Kill his gangsters together, the Yi clan! I want to give a warning to the ministers present! The country is in trouble and I don't know how to save it, but I want to collude with the treacherous villain. Yes, none of them will end well!"

Of course, Li Si was among the courtiers who were executed. He knew that he could not escape, and he did not ask Shimi to forgive him. When he heard that he was going to die, he breathed a sigh of relief. This was something that was against his will and wish. ,it is finally over!

Shimi did not rush to kill Zhiyu. After all, he was the son of Ying Zheng and the son of Qin. Naturally, it was impossible to bring him to death in front of the public. Instead, he put him under house arrest. As for Zhao Gao, Shimi didn't rush to kill him, but put him under house arrest in the hut where he lived when he was a slave.

Countless people were involved in this rebellion. Shimi lost her most beloved child in this struggle. When Wang Jian carried the bodies of Meng Yi and Yi Xin in front of him, her tears had dried up.

"Bury the two of them next to the late emperor. The late emperor loved Yixin the most when he was alive. I hope they can get along with each other as before when they go underground."

The young new emperor succeeded to the throne, and Shimiya became the queen mother, but except for this child, no one was with him anymore.

"Wang Jian, you are leaving, right?"

The two of them had to say goodbye again.

"Yes, now that the overall situation has been decided, there is no need for me to stay, but... why don't you kill those two traitors? If you stay, I will have long nights and many dreams."

Shimi shook his head and smiled.

"The two of them are evil people who are destined to work together for the rest of their lives. No matter how much I try to stop it or how much I try to save it, everything seems to have been destined to be that way. Although Zhiyu is a born evil person, Zhao Gao's bewitchment is indispensable. He I am afraid that even now I think Zhao Gao is loyal to him, I want to let him know that he has misjudged the wrong person and taken the wrong path... I hope he can be a good person in his next life."

Wang Jian saw that although she had a young appearance, her eyes had gone through many vicissitudes of life. At this time, Shimi's eyes were no longer as bright as a girl's, but looked like they had seen through the world the helplessness.

"Do you want to call Princess Yihua back?"

"No..."

Shikiya shook his head

"That child is not suitable for a bloody struggle. Let her leave the Qin Palace this time. She will be taken care of by you and Han Fei. I have nothing to worry about."

Shimi looked at Wang Jian, and the two hugged naturally after looking at each other. This was a hug as a friend and a final farewell.

"Wang Jian... after this separation, will it be impossible for us to meet again?"

Wang Jian said with a smile

"It doesn't matter if we don't meet. It's enough for you to remember that you still have a close friend in this world."
