Upon hearing Wang Ben’s question, Wang Jian did not answer immediately, but instead narrowed his eyes slightly.
These people that His Majesty had summoned might not be the strongest in terms of strength, but they were basically the most prestigious.
He detected some unusual aura, and suddenly, he thought of something, his complexion changed slightly, and he quickly said.
“In these two days, you look after the city’s defences, if there are any unusual movements, you must report them in time.”
Wang Ben first froze for a moment, and then also reacted, directly swallowed his saliva, said.
“Father, this…”
Just before his words even left his mouth, he was interrupted by Wang Jian, saying.
“Don’t think too much, this could be a good thing.”
“Good thing?”
Wang Ben revealed a puzzled look at this time.
He wasn’t a mediocre person, the First Emperor had summoned these top nobles and his own old father was so nervous about the military.
It must have something to do with that seat.
But as long as it’s related to that seat, generally speaking, it can’t be anything good.
Mutiny and bloodshed are commonplace.
Wang Jian at this time, however, nodded his head with a complex expression, and said with a few emotions.
“If it’s really as I thought, that’s really… That’s really…”
Wang Jian didn’t know how to describe it, and finally said.
“Your Majesty is more than the three emperors, more than the five emperors, you are the first emperor, your name is worthy of it.”
“That’s all. Don’t think too much. Just watch the defence.”
Wang Ben could only nod his head as he looked at his father’s emotional look.
The next morning, Wang Jian went out in full dress, and there was nothing strange in the city, it was just a normal day.
The first day he arrived at the palace, there was an attendant waiting for him.
“Please follow me, Marquis Wucheng.”
Then following the attendant all the way to the front of Qin Shi Huang’s palace, he saw Li Si and many other old nobles were here.
However, everyone did not go in, because Qin Shi Huang’s palace, at this time, there were many attendants, carrying tables and chairs that had been used by the folk long ago, going in and out.
It seems to be moving, which makes them a bit puzzled.
“Marquis Wucheng, you are also here, what is the situation today?”
An old nobleman came over at this time and asked in a low voice.
Wang Jian glanced at the other party, but did not answer the other party’s question, but instead asked, in return.
“How do I know? You’ve been very well informed, you should know.”
He didn’t believe that these old nobles didn’t have some guesses in their hearts, and he had just taken a closer look, and most of the people here were close to Zhao Lang.
Of course, there are nobles who don’t get along with Zhao Lang, but there are only one or two who are leaders.
There were also a lot of people from the Ying Zhao clan.
It’s just that everyone is thinking about what they want to say to others.
But who are the good guys?
So after some mutual temptation, everyone is silent, honestly look at those who move chairs back and forth, not long, someone whispered.
“The furnishings in the palace are also ritualistic, why does His Majesty suddenly want to change to these folk things?”
“Yes, these things are mostly the people’s utensils, how can they enter the palace? We can advise His Majesty later.”
“Well, I think so too.”
Saying that there would be no risk in these small matters, everyone was instantly involved in this.
“But these tables, the chairs are indeed quite convenient.”
“So what if it’s convenient? Just for the sake of a moment’s convenience, do you not even want the etiquette, the rules? Hmph, I don’t want you, a senile old man straddling your legs, sitting in front of me!”
“Hmph, you just have an inferiority complex, old man’s old bird can still fight!” Gu Jiao.
“Bah! Shameless…”
“You’re the one…”
The scene was a bit chaotic for a while, except that the others were still talking about that
“Hey, old me but I heard that the earliest of these things were passed out from the manor where the Crown Prince is located.”
“His Highness the Crown Prince is now the head of the Mozi family, these things are not enough to start with, but no matter what, this is also not in harmony with etiquette.”
Wang Jian listened to these words silently from the side, but in his heart he was more and more certain of his suspicions.
After waiting for a while, the attendants carrying the chairs all left, Zhao Gao came out at this time and said.
“Gentlemen, His Majesty has summoned us.”
At this time, all of them straightened up their manners before walking in with a solemn look on their faces.
When he entered the palace, Wang Jian saw that the palace was completely different, the tables and chairs had all been replaced with folk tables and chairs.
“Gentlemen, sit down.”
Qin Shi Huang walked out, then sat on the top chair, then touched the armrests on both sides of the chair and said with a smile.
“Well, these chairs made by Wave Child are indeed much more comfortable.”
Not having to sit on your knees was still good for your legs.
Hearing this, the others also laughed in succession and said.
“It is indeed comfortable.”
However, there was not a single person to admonish, we are all old nobles, and not those stiff necks of the Ritual Officers, who would give themselves a hard time for nothing?
As for what was said before, it was purely to see if it could be pitched to others.
Unfortunately, no one fell for it.
After a burst of pleasantries, Emperor Qin Shi Huang looked at the room full of nobles who had followed him all the way here, a few feelings surfaced in his heart, and he wasn’t a person who hesitated, and quickly said.
“Today let all of you come, I but I have an important thing to talk to all of you.”
Everyone immediately put their ears up, they were waiting for these words.
If there wasn’t something going on here today, it would be a hell of a thing.
Qin Shi Huang continued.
“I have grown old, and so have all of you.”
Hearing these words, everyone’s hearts were slightly shaken, the entire palace quieted down, and Zhao Gao also looked at Qin Shi Huang with a few moments of nervousness.
No one dared to chime in at this time, Qin Shi Huang then said.
“I actually don’t want to grow old, that’s why I believed the words of those fangshi before, but I almost let myself be poisoned to death.”
Noble ministers exchanged glances with each other at this time, of course they knew about this matter, and some people had advised them, only at that time, Emperor Qin Shi Huang was extremely indulged and didn’t listen to him.
But what’s the point of talking about this now?
This Your Majesty of theirs can be said to be wise and powerful, but he is definitely not a person who likes to admit his mistakes, Qin Shi Huang said with a few emotions at this time.
“Luckily there’s Lang’er, luckily there’s Lang’er ah, I have a successor.”
If it is not Zhao Lang, Qin Shi Huang is also difficult to think about, if he suddenly died of poisoning, he is interested in what will become of Great Qin.
Listening to Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s somewhat spontaneous exclamation, everyone at this time also realised what was going on, even if they had guessed it earlier, at this time one by one could not help but look at Emperor Qin Shi Huang.
Sure enough, Qin Shi Huang slowly said at this time.
“I feel physically tired from time to time nowadays, so I want to abdicate to the Crown Prince, what do you all think?”
Bang bang bang!
Before Qin Shi Huang’s words fell, the entire palace had already resounded with the sound of a dull landing.
The noble ministers who were originally sitting on their chairs, at this moment, were all sitting on the ground one by one with shocked faces!
In the end, it was Wang Jian who first came back to his senses and said directly that
“Your Majesty, this matter must not be allowed!”
