The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Li Mingchong sent people to send fifteen copies of the memorial, and he sent it every once in a while. Ye Wendao put it in chronological order for Xiao Rui to read.

Xiao Rui started to read from the farthest date, and the speed of browsing was very fast.

With Li Mingchong and other cabinet scholars guarding the gate, there is basically no government affairs that cannot be handled, so the content of the memorial is to state what happened and the solution, not to seek instructions from Xiao Rui, Xiao Rui is naturally quick to read.

In the past two months or so, the imperial court has not encountered any difficult major events. It has taken precautions against the disasters that are likely to occur when winter turns to spring. It has some influence, but the harm is not great.

Secondly, after winter passed, the Qin army began to move again. They went north and bypassed the grasslands, trying to attack Ganzhou and Suzhou, so that they could move their troops south.

The northern boundary of Anbei Zhuzhou is bounded by mountains. From east to west, this mountain range goes through Linzhou, Qizhou, Liaozhou, and Yuanzhou, and then goes southwest, walks through the territory of Huazhou, and reaches the bordering Suzhou The territory becomes flat, so when you reach Suzhou and Ganzhou, you will have a flat terrain. This is also the reason why Ganzhou and Suzhou are the gaps in the northwest corner of the Daxia territory, and they must be guarded by the Marquis of Changsheng and Marquis of Zhenyuan.

However, if the Qin army wanted to attack Daxia, it had to settle the Mongolian tribes on the grassland.

After surviving the cold winter, Yuan people's savings were almost exhausted, and if they wanted to restore prosperity as soon as possible, they could only rob. The east can rob Daxia, and the west will naturally rob Qin.

Therefore, the first enemy of Qin State is the Yuan army.

Now that Xiao Rui sees these memorials, it means that the Qin army and the Yuan army have already confronted each other. As for who is stronger and who is weaker, and how they will win or lose, Li Mingchong has not received any reliable information.

Other than that, it's fine.

But next, Wang Dazhi brought the secret report sent by Wei Zhongxian.

Before Xiao Rui left Beijing, he gave Wei Zhongxian an important task, that is to keep an eye on King Jing and use him to lure the snake out of the hole to see if he can catch a big fish.

And the news of Xiao Rui's departure from Beijing really made him want to move. Half a month after Xiao Rui left, he started to contact Ye Qiu.

Xiao Jing is not stupid, he knows that the cabinet and the Six Departments are all arranged by Xiao Rui, so it is unlikely to instigate rebellion, and Ye Qiu is not directly promoted by Xiao Rui. It's a pity that Xiao Jing is a fool's dream. Ye Xiu and Ye Qiu are loyal to Da Xia, how could they rebel against the court, so they ignored Xiao Jing's overtures.

At the same time, the concealed hostile forces in the capital also contacted Xiao Jing, and Xiao Jing decided to assassinate the cabinet scholars. As long as all the cabinet scholars died and the emperor was not in the palace, it would be a big step closer to dominance. So Xiao Jing asked those forces to assassinate the seven cabinet scholars.

As for the result, the entire army was naturally wiped out, and Dongchang followed suit and caught many hidden enemies, most of whom were from Qin and Qi.

After reading Wei Zhongxian's secret report, Wang Dazhi, who was waiting by the side, said: "Your Majesty, I have just received the latest news. It is Chuan Jianguo from the capital of Qin, saying that Emperor Qin suddenly fell into a coma and is likely to be critically ill!"

"What?" Xiao Rui was startled, and said in amazement: "Qin Huang is critically ill, this news is really shocking, did Chuan Jianguo find out why he fell into a coma?"

Wang Dazhi shook his head, and said: "The news came through the Gyrfalcon. I didn't introduce the details in detail, but the accuracy is certain."

"Chuan Jianguo is a cautious person. Since he dared to pass the news back, it means that the results of the investigation are almost indistinguishable. Qin Huang suddenly fell into a coma this time, and the Qin capital must be very lively. Dazhi, do you think you will talk to Lai Ai? Does it matter?" Xiao Rui had a gloating expression.

Wang Dazhi replied: "I don't know this cousin well, so he probably doesn't have this ability. How can an ordinary person influence Qin Huang's safety?"

Xiao Rui smiled, that's Lao Ai, a genius, only unexpected, nothing impossible.

"Maidservant, do you want Chuan Jianguo to get in touch with Lai Ai?" Wang Dazhi asked.

Xiao Rui refused: "No need, I am just a pusher at the beginning, not a chess player, let Lai Ai play freely. I will wait and see what happens. Qin Guo's death will be a good thing for me and Daxia! They The messier the better!"

"Your servant understands." Wang Dazhi said respectfully.

 …

Time moves forward by one month.

In the Qindu Imperial Palace, this period of time was a happy one for Lai Ai.

Empress Qin Xue Caizhi was pregnant for more than a month, so Lao Ai put the fetus first, and finally didn't have to serve Xue Caizhi. Although Xue Caizhi had grass in her heart, she knew the severity.

And the idle Lai Ai is not idle, she often secretly goes to Mingxin Palace to serve Zhao Ji, compared to Xue Caizhi who is old and ugly, Zhao Ji is so lovely, Lai Ai can't wait to stay with Zhao Ji all day together.

As for Zhao Ji, she was overwhelmed by Lao Ai's ability, and the two of them came and went, and within a month, they were like glue, and they became very close.

After getting acquainted, she naturally had nothing to say, and Lao Ai was able to ask the biggest doubt in her heart: "Mother, why did you tell about your relationship with Li Si, are you afraid that I will take refuge in Xue Caizhi?"

Zhao Ji stroked Lai Ai's cheek, and said: "I have been imprisoned in this deep palace for so many years, and I have almost forgotten the feeling of being a woman. I heard that you are very powerful, so how can I be willing to give you up to others? Secondly, Li Si, this person is too insidious, so I have to guard against it! So after hesitation, I decided to win you over. As for whether you will seek refuge with Xue Caizhi, hmph, would you like that old woman? Who do you like more?"

Looking at Zhao Ji's charming expression, just after the first break of the cloud and rain, she became impulsive again.

Of course, it's still important!

Lao Ai quickly expressed her loyalty: "How can Xue Caizhi, that ugly girl, compare to your empress? Lai Ai is willing to die for your empress!"

"How powerful you are, how can I be willing to let you die?" Zhao Ji said with a smile.

Lao Ai said again: "Your Majesty, what exactly does Li Si want to do?"

Zhao Ji said: "Li Si wanted to help Qin Zheng ascend the throne, but after Zheng'er ascended the throne, I was killed."

"Why?" Lai Ai wondered. Qin Zheng is the son of Zhao Ji, the mother is expensive by the son, the son becomes the emperor, he is the queen mother, how could he be killed. In addition, why did Zhao Ji directly call Ying Wang "Qin Zheng", and the title was so unfamiliar.

Zhao Ji did not hide it, but revealed a shocking secret: "You know, Qin Zheng is not my son!"

"Ah?" Lao Ai was stunned for a moment, with an expression of disbelief.

Zhao Ji continued: "Back then, the child in this palace was in poor condition after it was born. The imperial doctor said that it was likely to die. When the situation was critical, Li Si conceived a plan and sent his newborn child to the palace. Within two days, Ben Gong's child really died. At that time, Ben Gong could not lose his son, because without a son, Ben Gong would have nothing in the palace, so he could only regard the son sent by Li Si as his own child."

At the end, Zhao Ji felt sad.

Lai Ai was so surprised that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear. Li Si was so scheming that he sent his son into the palace to become the prince.

"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being disrespectful. Your Majesty's dead prince is..." Lai Ai hesitated.

Zhao Ji said: "It's Ben Gong and Li Si's child!"

When Lao Ai heard this, she was dumbfounded, and really wanted to give Li Si a thumbs up and praise him! No wonder it was rumored that the princes were not like His Majesty, and Li Si also suggested that blood should be used to recognize relatives, which blocked Qin Huang's doubts.

"If Qin Zheng is a child of my palace, I'm naturally not afraid, but he is only Li Si's son, so after Qin Zheng ascends the throne, can I still live? So I need to cooperate with you, we can't be pawns, we can't die There is no place to die!" Zhao Ji said viciously.

But Lao Ai asked with a sad face, "But what should we do? Li Si is the prime minister, one person is below ten thousand!"

Zhao Ji sneered and said, "Lao Ai, you don't know something. Although Qin Zheng is Li Si's seed, Qin Zheng himself doesn't know the truth. Li Si never told him, because Qin Zheng's temper is too straightforward. Tell him the truth. The truth, Li Si is also afraid that he will not be able to control the situation. So we are not without advantages, as long as we can kill Li Si, then I will still be the Queen Mother."

For the throne, everyone has their own ghosts.

Lao Ai realized that she was too young. If she didn't know the inside story, she wouldn't know how she died.

At the same time, Lao Ai hesitated even more.

Who should he help?

Help Xue Caizhi? After all, she is pregnant with her own flesh and blood. But what's the use of having children? Although Qin Su is the prince, he is facing Li Si, and it is too difficult to sit on the throne.

But help Zhao Ji? He and Zhao Ji are inseparable now, but once Zhao Ji takes the position of queen mother, she can raise other male favorites. I don't have any deep involvement with him, so what can I gain? What's more, it's too dangerous to help her deal with Li Si.

Thinking of this, Lai Ai found that no matter what she chose, she was dead.

Zhao Ji looked at Lai Ai's flickering expression and knew that he was worried. Zhao Ji smiled and said, "I understand your worries, but I am also worried. Now that Qin Zheng doesn't know his life experience, it's hard to guarantee that he won't know in the future. Once he knows, Bengong will still die. So during this period of time, Bengong lured His Majesty to come to Mingxin Palace many times, and stayed here overnight. If I can conceive, then I will be able to give birth to a new prince. But I know that Your Majesty has already I am old and it is basically impossible, so I need your help to help me conceive and give birth to our children. I have a wonderful recipe called Songzi Decoction. If you take it for a long time, you will have a baby boy. The palace has been tested many times, and they all work. As long as Li Si is killed, after Qin Zheng ascends the throne, our child will be a prince. We are trying to get rid of Qin Zheng. Qin Zheng has no heirs to ascend the throne, so we have to pass the throne to his brothers. And our son will be the future emperor of Great Qin!"

"This is a path of failure or success, but for Bengong and you, we are already standing on the edge of a cliff. If you don't fight now, you really have no chance!"

"Lao Ai, what do you think?"
