Chapter 478
Ye Chen looked at the person in front of him and said with a light smile, "Not everyone can have the opportunity to attend his funeral, how does Your Majesty feel?"

Ying Zheng waved his hands and said, "This is also to lure the snake out of the hole, so the national teacher doesn't have to make fun of it."

Ye Chen looked at the other party, raised his eyebrows slightly and said, "I wonder if Your Majesty has noticed that you are different now from before?"

Hearing this, Ying Zheng also reacted, and then he clenched his fists, and said with a look of surprise in his eyes: "My body..."

Ye Chen said: "It seems that my previous guess is correct. The root cause of your Majesty's life decaying so quickly lies in the limitation of fate."

Now in the hearts of the people in the world, Ying Zheng has passed away, so the invisible shackles have naturally been opened.

If he could keep hiding like this without letting anyone find out, Fate Punishment might disappear completely.

But with the other party's temperament, it is obvious that he is unwilling to live without any sense of existence like this.

Ying Zheng asked: "Now that everything has been arranged, what should I do next?"

Ye Chen smiled and said: "The bait has been cast, and the next step is naturally to wait for the big fish to take the bait..."

When the news of Ying Zheng's passing came out, the entire empire was shaken. No one expected that it would happen so suddenly, and countless people mourned for it.

And behind this national mourning, there are countless undercurrents surging.

Ying Zheng's death is like a signal, and all ambitious people will take the opportunity to jump out and disturb the general situation of the world.

It can be foreseen that the violent storm sweeping the world is coming.

The death of the first emperor was a national mourning, and tens of millions of people would mourn for it. Naturally, such a major event cannot be concealed.

Whether it is the careerists in the court or the nobles who want to overthrow Daqin, they are all ready to show their fangs.

Two days have passed, and the series of procedures before the funeral of Emperor Shihuang have almost been carried out, and the national funeral ceremony has basically been completed.As for sending it to the imperial mausoleum, we still have to wait.

As the saying goes, a country cannot be without a king for a day. Although the first emperor is dead, he is still the monarch of Daqin, so he cannot be buried immediately until the next heir to the throne is determined.

In order to ensure that the corpse does not rot, a large amount of precious cold jade was specially collected and placed in the coffin so that the corpse could be preserved as much as possible.

After this series of things are busy, what happens next is the highlight.

At Chenshi, civil and military officials, the elders of the royal family and the princes, etc., all wore mourning clothes and gathered in the main hall of Xianyang Palace.

It can be said that everyone who should be there has arrived, and even Ye Chen is not absent.

There is a very important event to be dealt with today, that's why there are so many people here.

The most important thing now is to choose a new emperor. As for the candidate Yingzheng, it has been decided before, and the edict has been arranged in advance.

Now Emperor Bintian naturally has to follow the edict to establish the next successor to the throne.

Now that everyone has arrived, the imperial edict left by the first emperor will also be published.

Under the common gaze of civil and military officials, the imperial guards took down the first imperial edict placed on the plaque, and opened it in front of everyone.

Afterwards, the left and right prime ministers of Daqin jointly requested the imperial edict, and then the two of them took one side and slowly unfolded it, and the contents of it were also presented in front of everyone.

When they saw the contents of the imperial edict, everyone was shocked.

I saw that it was written impressively: make the eighteenth son Hu Hai the emperor, and abolish Ye Chen as the national teacher!
After the shock, there was a lot of discussion.

At first, everyone thought that the next emperor should be the eldest son Fusu. After all, during this period of time, Fusu had already been in charge of the country.

If Ying Zheng didn't want to set him up, there was absolutely no need to do so.

Moreover, both Meng Tian and Ye Chen were trusted by the first emperor, why should they be dismissed?
This can't be justified at all!
But although everyone was surprised, this was the order of the first emperor, and no one stood up to raise objections.

Seeing this scene, Zhao Gao smiled, then walked to Hu Hai's side, cupped his hands and said, "Since His Majesty the First Emperor chose you to inherit the throne, you should be the one to ascend the throne."

"I also invite the eighteenth son to ascend the throne, so that His Majesty can enter the imperial tomb as soon as possible, so that he can rest in peace."

After the words fell, several officials behind him also echoed: "I also invite the eighteenth son to inherit the great Qin Guozuo!"

Under such an atmosphere, Hu Hai couldn't control his excitement, and he took a step forward, and when he was about to say something, a slightly abrupt voice sounded out of place.

"Wait a minute."

Hearing this, everyone turned their heads to look, only to see Ye Chen walking over unhurriedly.

Seeing this, a chill flashed in Zhao Gao's eyes, and he said coldly: "Ye Chen, it is very clear in the edict. Now that you are no longer the master of the Great Qin State, what qualifications do you have to speak out?"

Ye Chen just smiled and didn't say anything, then looked at Li Si and said, "Junior brother, can you let me have a look at this edict?"

Hearing this, Li Si's expression changed. After a little hesitation, he still handed over the edict in his hand.

Ye Chen reached out to take it, looked at it, and found that there was indeed a distinctive seal on it.

Then he opened his mouth and asked: "This big seal, but His Majesty stamped it with his own hands?"

Hearing this, Zhao Gao's heart tightened, he always felt that the other party seemed to have noticed something.

Then he calmed down and said, "Of course it was built by His Majesty himself, otherwise who else could it be?"

Hearing the reply, Ye Chen looked at Li Si who was at the side again, and asked, "Should your majesty's jade seal be kept by the younger brother temporarily? Has it been lost or used by others?"

Li Si was shocked. Since the other party asked such a question, he must have suspected him.

But the more you can't be nervous at this time, there should be nothing wrong with this matter, as long as there is no evidence, no matter what you say, you can't help yourself.

Then he replied with a serious face: "Yuxi is the most important thing, so it is safe and sound, even I have not touched it."

Hearing this, Ye Chen sighed lightly and said, "It's more forgivable for the evil done by the sky, but you can't live for the evil done by yourself!"

The reason why he asked these two more questions just now was to give the other party a chance, but unfortunately he still couldn't grasp it.

Hearing this, Li Si's complexion changed slightly, and an inexplicable uneasiness appeared in his heart.

He opened his mouth and said, "Brother, what do you mean by this statement?"

Ye Chen threw the edict in his hand on the ground directly, and said, "You can know what a crime it is to forge an imperial edict!"

 Thanks to "Qin Ke'er" for the reward!
