I have a space station

Six years later.

In 251 BC, King Zhaoxiang of Qin, Ying Ji, passed away, and Lord Anguo, Ying Zhu, ascended the throne, becoming King Xiaowen of Qin.

At the same time, Lady Huayang was made queen, and Zichu (Yiren) was made crown prince.

After this, Zhao Ji and Ying Zheng secretly returned to the Qin state.

Lü Buwei, after nine long years of management, finally reached the time to reap the rewards.

In order to reach the center of power in the Qin state as soon as possible, Lord Anguo, Ying Zhu, became the most tragic king of Qin in history.

In November 250 BC.

Ying Zhu, who had just ascended the throne for three days after the mourning period, was assassinated in his bedroom by assassins sent by the Zoroastrian sect.

In the same year, Zichu successfully inherited the throne of Qin, becoming King Zhuangxiang of Qin.

The following year, 249 BC, King Zhuangxiang of Qin, Zichu, officially ascended the throne after the mourning period.

After taking the throne, Zichu fulfilled his promise, appointing Lü Buwei as prime minister, granting him the title of Marquis Wenxin, and bestowing upon him a fief of one hundred thousand households.

At this time, Ying Zheng was only 10 years old.

Xianyang City, Queen's Palace.

"Prime Minister, this queen has summoned you several times, but you have always made excuses. What is the meaning of this?" Zhao Ji asked displeased.

"Your Majesty, it is inconvenient for an outsider to enter and exit the harem!" Lü Buwei was not clear about Zhao Ji's position in the Zoroastrian sect, and his tone was very unkind.

"Heh heh, are you inconvenienced, or do you want to deliberately draw a line with the Zoroastrian sect?" Zhao Ji deliberately exposed him.

"What Zoroastrian sect? This minister has never heard of it!"

"It seems that the reports of several envoys to me are not groundless." Zhao Ji was not annoyed, leaning on the chair and said slowly.

However, Lü Buwei felt uneasy when he heard this sentence.

In his impression, this Zhao Ji was just an unknown person and should not have any status in the Zoroastrian sect.

With this kind of identity, even the envoys should not have heard of her, how could they report to her?

"Let me advise you, you have today because of the grace of the Holy Church. Don't miscalculate, or you will end up with nothing."

"Who exactly are you?"

"Let him tell you!"

Zhao Ji clapped her hands, and a person appeared from behind the screen.

This person was wearing a red cloak, and it was obvious at a glance that he was an envoy.

"Greetings, Envoy!" Lü Buwei hurriedly saluted.

The current situation could not be clearer. This Zhao Ji could mobilize the envoy, which meant that her position in the Zoroastrian sect was extremely high.

"Greetings, Holy Maiden!"

The envoy ignored him and turned to salute Zhao Ji.

"Hiss ~"

Lü Buwei was shocked when he heard the words 'Holy Maiden'.

"Have you clarified your position now?"

"Your subordinate understands!" Lü Buwei dared not act rashly.

"Very good. This queen has also heard about the rumors in the market. It is not wrong for you to want to avoid suspicion. However, the envoy said in the report that someone may be fueling the flames behind this matter."

"Someone will investigate the specific situation. During this period, the Prime Minister needs to cooperate and come to my place more often."

"Your subordinate obeys."

"Very good, you may leave."

In the next room, two young eunuchs were watching Ying Zheng.

"Grandpa Qin, what is the Zoroastrian sect?" He was talking to the voice in his brain.

Ying Zheng had a communicator implanted by Qin Lao.

"It's an evil cult," Qin Lao replied.

"What is an evil cult?" Ying Zheng asked again.

"It controls people's minds to achieve ulterior motives," Qin Lao replied.

"Are you saying that my mother is a bad person?" Ying Zheng asked.

When he was in the Zhao state a few years ago, he had argued with Qin Lao many times about this matter.

In the place where he and his mother used to live, people in red cloaks would appear every now and then. Sometimes, several people would appear at the same time.

The things they talked about every day were controlling this and killing that.

Even so, he still didn't believe that his mother was a bad person.

However, after he personally saw Zhao Ji meeting with two different men in private, he really couldn't feel any good feelings for this mother.

"You have also seen that she has already attacked your father," Qin Lao said.

After Zhao Ji returned to the Qin state, she directly poisoned Yiren.

The current Yiren is already foolish and muddleheaded, and his mind is unclear. It can also be said that he is completely a puppet.

"Will my mother kill me?" Ying Zheng asked.

"Not for the time being."

"Why?"

"Because she needs you."

"Then what should I do?"

"Don't let people know that you are eavesdropping, don't let people know that you are smart, don't take the initiative to talk to anyone, and don't disobey your mother's orders," Qin Lao thought for a while and replied.

"Since you are a god, why don't you take me away?" Ying Zheng felt that it was too unfree to stay here.

"If you leave, the Qin state will be finished."

"Isn't there still Cheng Jiao?"

"Cheng Jiao is not of the Qin bloodline."

"What is bloodline?"

"He is not your father's son."

"Why?"

Ying Zheng was still young and couldn't understand at all.

"You will know when you grow up," Qin Lao couldn't explain.

Cheng Jiao was 5 years younger than Ying Zheng.

However, at that time, Yiren had already returned to the Qin state with Lü Buwei, so who did Zhao Ji have this son with?
