Mortal Ascension Record

Chapter 1317: Foreign relatives seize power, chaos in the court

Caught off guard, the young man suddenly ran away in pain, but he still shouted with a guilty conscience:

"You, you, you...you dare to beat and scold the current prince, you are so brave! I want to inform the Imperial Guard...!"

Speaking of this, the young man suddenly reacted and couldn't help but suddenly raised his head and exclaimed:

"Eh~! What did you just say? Old Qin family? Are you also a descendant of my old Qin family?"

Qin Tian's face suddenly darkened when he heard this, and he immediately cursed again:

"Idiot, I am your ancestor!"

Hearing this, the young man couldn't help but look at Qin Tian's face carefully. The doubt in his eyes gradually disappeared, and finally turned into a look of shock. He couldn't help but exclaimed in shock:

"What... you... are you, Ancestor Qin Tian? How is this possible? After so many years, you are still so young? Your appearance has not changed at all. ?”

As soon as he finished speaking, the young man stood stunned for a moment, then fell to his knees with a plop.

"Junior Qin Zheng, I have met our ancestors. God has eyes, and our ancestors really showed up! My old Qin family is saved!"

Seeing this situation, Qin Tian was a little shocked:

"What? You kid actually recognize me?"

After hearing this, the young man named Qin Zheng nodded quickly and recounted in an excited tone:

"I would like to inform my ancestors that when the First Emperor founded the country, he left a portrait of you to be enshrined in the ancestral temple. He also stated that you had entered the immortal realm and had most likely reached the realm of immortality. Therefore, we are often asked to Offer incense and clean the ancestral land at the same time so that you won’t find your way home!”

After hearing this, Qin Tian couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Although the time spent with that cheap brother was extremely short, the brotherhood was truly touching and extremely embarrassing!

After pondering for a moment, Qin Tian's expression softened:

"You kid, please get up and speak. I would like to ask you, did you re-erect that wooden monument outside the small fishing village?"

Qin Zheng did not dare to hesitate after hearing this, and quickly replied respectfully:

"I would like to inform my ancestors that when I was the emperor, I told you that although the tomb is not an ancestor of my Qin family and has not been included in the imperial mausoleum, it is still an ancestor of an old friend. Therefore, I also ordered future generations to pay respects to it from time to time. Anyway, the younger generation is here I will take care of the imperial mausoleum as well!"

Qin Tian couldn't help but nodded after hearing this, and his impression of Qin Zheng was greatly changed. Then he seemed to remember something and couldn't help but ask doubtfully:

"Since you are the prince of the current dynasty, why are you reduced to guarding the imperial mausoleum here? Isn't this not in line with your status? And what's going on with the rumors that the royal family is fatuous? Please tell me carefully!"

After hearing this, Qin Zheng's face was full of bitterness, and it was obvious that all kinds of grievances were welling up in his heart. The fourteen-year-old or fifteen-year-old boy couldn't help but burst into tears, and he said in a sad tone:

"I would like to inform my ancestors that this junior is indeed the current prince. This is absolutely true!

The late emperor passed away unexpectedly many years ago, and I was the only heir. At that time, the younger generation was still young, and he was promoted to the throne at the age of six. However, the Empress Dowager Zhao was very ambitious. The biological mother of the younger generation also jointly bribed a group of powerful ministers and high-ranking officials to stage a rebellion and force the younger generation to step down from the throne! "

"Fortunately, there were a group of veterans who fought to protect each other. In addition, the Empress Dowager Zhao was worried that if she did too much and would bear the name of regicide, she would cause mutinies in various parts of the Qin Dynasty, so this junior was lucky enough to save a life!"

"In the end, the junior ascended the throne at the age of six, abdicated at the age of seven, and was demoted to a commoner at the age of eight. He was sent here to guard the imperial mausoleum. In fact, he was imprisoned here to fend for himself. Every day, the junior could only eat wild vegetables and fruits in the mountains to satisfy his hunger. I have just managed to survive until now, but the pain during this period is really hard to explain to outsiders~"

Upon hearing this, Qin Tian frowned slightly and his tone became a little colder:

"In other words, you are the only direct descendant of my old Qin family, and now you are the only one left?"

After hearing this, Qin Zheng became even more sad and angry:

"Ancestor's expectation is good. Now apart from the ancestor, there is indeed only one junior left in the Old Qin family!"

"The Queen Mother of the Zhao family was cruel and ruthless. After she succeeded, she used various excuses to kill all the blood of my Qin family. Even many collateral lines could not escape the murderous hand. On the contrary, her Zhao family members were greatly promoted! For example, the eldest princess was the most , A person with a foreign surname dares to claim to be a princess, how ridiculous is this? "

"But now in the court, relatives are seizing power and eunuchs are interfering in politics. Not only is the Empress Dowager Zhao's family dominating the family, but there are also eunuchs working as collaborators, and even the Imperial City's imperial guards have all surrendered!"

"In such a chaotic situation, the juniors are so weak that they are really powerless!"

Seeing this situation, Qin Tian's face couldn't help but darken, and a cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

Obviously, this time he was really angry.

After all, he never thought that the empire that his little brother had worked so hard to build would be turned into this!

No wonder the elixir refining was not going well some time ago. It turns out that the bloodline of the old Qin family is almost extinct. If he comes back a little later, God knows what disaster will happen!

Such behavior is no longer as simple as a blood feud. This clearly means that the old Qin family will be extinct!

For a moment, Qin Tian felt angry, but at the same time he couldn't help but feel happy secretly.

It is simply unimaginable how a mere eight-year-old child could survive alone in this barren mountain with the royal mausoleum.

At such a young age, he was involved in a dangerous court struggle. From ascending the throne to being demoted to a commoner, this transition from heaven to hell, how much suffering and torture he had to go through, just think about how difficult it was!

From this, it can be seen that although this boy is young, his character is really good.

Thinking of this, and looking at the helpless and confused young man in front of him, Qin Tian's expression could not help but ease up, and then he spoke softly:

"Don't worry, little guy, it's our things, no one can take it away, everything will be fine!"

Hearing this, Qin Zheng seemed to have found a support, and immediately became much more at ease, but soon he couldn't help but ask curiously:

"May I ask, ancestor, are you... really an immortal?"

As soon as this came out, Qin Tian couldn't help but laugh:

"Who in the world dares to call himself an immortal? I am just a hard-working person!"

However, Qin Zheng's face fell when he heard this, and he murmured a little disappointedly:

"That's it, I heard that the demon queen Zhao has recruited several mysterious national masters, each of whom has profound means, turning rivers and seas upside down, flying into the sky and hiding in the ground, and they all regard themselves as immortals on weekdays............!"

"If that's the case, then we definitely can't beat them, so let's hide out and wait for the right opportunity!"
