Chapter 91: Let the First Emperor choose his side on the spot
Feng Quji looked at Ying Yuan's ready men and felt a surge of depression in his chest.

The anger came so violently that after it reached his throat, he couldn't suppress it for a moment.

His throat felt slightly sweet, and finally a mouthful of blood spurted out of his mouth with a "Puff".

"father!"

Feng Jie, who was closest to Feng Quji, exclaimed when he saw this, and then hurriedly supported his father.

Ying Yuan, who was sitting at the top, saw that Feng Quji had problems, so how could he miss such a good opportunity.

He just slammed the table with a look of "sadness" on his face.

"Quick, come, help Prime Minister Feng back to his house to rest!"

"Ah, I told you that Prime Minister Feng's body can't handle the workload!"

"Look, it hasn't even started yet, but it can't hold on any longer!"

"Feng Jie, quickly help Prime Minister Feng go back and rest!"

"Looking at Prime Minister Feng's condition, I'm afraid he'll just have to rest quietly in his mansion from now on!"

Listening to Ying Yuan's "gossip" that completely cut off his official career, Feng Quji was so angry that he spat out blood again.

He was already quite old, and after spurting out two mouthfuls of blood, how could he bear it?

For a moment, he seemed to be completely depressed, and his face even turned slightly blue.

The graceful demeanor that Feng Jie had always maintained on his face was completely gone at this moment.

He took a deep breath and nodded to Ying Yuan: "Young Master Yuanrong, my father is seriously ill now, so it's a good time for him to return home to recuperate."

"As a son, I beg Master Yuan to allow me to leave the court first and send my father back home for treatment and recuperation!"

When Ying Yuan heard this, the corner of his eye twitched violently, and he thought that Feng Jie's dangerousness had increased to a higher level.

Good guy!
If you see that there is no chance of winning when the opportunity is not right, don't bother at all and just turn around and leave.

Just based on his decisiveness, he is definitely a strong opponent.

However, Ying Yuan nodded with a nervous look on his face.

"Well, approved. Mr. Feng, please send Prime Minister Feng back home immediately. I will send the palace physician Xia Wuqie to treat Prime Minister Feng later!"

Even Feng Jie knew that Ying Yuan was dark and difficult to deal with.

But when he heard that the other party could actually act seriously with him and his son at this time, he couldn't help but feel his temples throbbing.

However, Feng Jie is still the cunning one after all.

He almost gritted his teeth and reluctantly said "Thank you, Master Xie", and then without hesitation, he supported Feng Quji and slowly left the Qilin Hall.

Everyone looked at the trembling backs of the father and son, and suddenly felt a sense of trance in their hearts.

Is this gone?

The left prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty and the leader of the Qin nobles, just fell like this?
Since when could a prime minister be controlled so easily?

Not to mention Ying Yuan, the prince regent who had just taken the throne a few days ago, even the First Emperor was constrained by the whole court when he first became the King of Qin.

Even after killing Lu Buwei and taking over the government, for a long time, it was absolutely impossible for King Ying Zheng of Qin to make decisions on his own in the Qin court.

But...how did Ying Yuan get to sit here?
However, everyone only thought about this briefly at this moment and immediately ignored it.

Because there is a big problem here.

Xiao He, Cao Shen and Xiahou Ying all occupied first-class positions.

This was extremely painful for all the court officials.

Because this official position is originally one person per job, and if it is suddenly taken by someone else, won't they have to wait for many more years?
You know, not only are these top positions rare, but those who have been able to get to the top usually have a large number of supporters behind them.
Now, look what happened. A minor official and two common people suddenly became the top nine ministers of the Qin Dynasty?
How can they bear this?
Among these people, the most unbearable ones were the old Qin nobles. They had worked so hard to make all kinds of calculations before, all for the position that would be vacant after Zhao Gao's people were brought down.

As a result, I paid so much benefit when exchanging with others.

In the end, not only did he lose his position, but he also lost his position as prime minister, and all the benefits went into Ying Yuan's hands.

Can this be tolerated?
Immediately, a secretary took a few quick steps, looked at Ying Yuan menacingly, and bowed perfunctorily.

"Mr. Yuan, these positions of Fengchang and Tingwei are all important positions in the imperial court of our Great Qin."

“Not only does it require talent, it also requires experience!”

"Now Master Yuan has suddenly promoted several people who were previously worthless to such high positions. Isn't this treating the court of the Great Qin as a joke?"

"Besides, today, Gongzi Yuan approved the retirement of a prime minister and promoted three of the Nine Ministers!"

"For such an important matter, why didn't Gongzi Yuan ask His Majesty for instructions?"

"This is really a disrespect to His Majesty!"

"Therefore, I beg Master Yuan to revoke your order!"

Ying Yuan looked at the man in front of him with interest.

I don't know if this guy is too excited or really wants to risk it all.

He actually looked into Ying Yuan's eyes.

But as Ying Yuan watched, the smile on his face became less and less, and the murderous intent in his eyes surged.

The Secretary looked at the pair of dark eyes opposite him, and suddenly he remembered something.

This seemingly young prince who served as regent had actually had blood on his hands as he had beaten Zhao Gao to death and hunted down the remnants of the six kingdoms.

This person not only dares to kill people, but also seems to be quite keen on killing?
So is this a "performance" that comes to my doorstep?

When he thought of Ying Yuan’s “short but glorious” past performance, the Zhongshu Yezhe who had just stood up suddenly felt a chill on his scalp.

But Ying Yuan didn't give him the chance to take back his words.

snort!
I am just lying down and being a salted fish, but I just want to.

I can lie down, but that doesn’t mean I’m a loser!
Who on earth would dare to question me?

"Zhongshu Yushi Han Zhong, I can answer your questions right now!"

"First, since I am the Prince Regent, the power to appoint and dismiss court officials naturally lies in my hands!"

"Whether it's the Prime Minister or the Nine Ministers, as long as they still recognize our Great Qin, then I will naturally be qualified to appoint and dismiss them!"

"Secondly, it is true that my father is the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, and it is also true that his authority is supreme."

"But my father is sitting behind the screen right now, less than ten feet away from me!"

"If the emperor had any doubts or objections, he would have stopped it directly. Why would you question it?"

Having said that, Ying Yuan simply shouted.

"Father, if you object, just say so. I will obey you!"

Following this shout, everyone turned their eyes to the screen.

But what he waited for was the First Emperor's deep voice: "Since you are the regent, you are exercising power on my behalf."

"As for the appointment and dismissal, you have made the decision. There is no need to ask me again!"
