Chapter 117
An anonymous figure intervened to save the young First Emperor and escorted her all the way to Xianyang, the capital of the Qin Dynasty.
Outside the Xianyang Royal Palace, Ying Zheng bowed and said, "I, Ying Zheng, the twenty-sixth generation descendant of the Qin ancestor Duke Xiang, the grandson of the ancestor Lord Anguo, and the eldest son of the new king, have returned from Handan. I humbly request my Father King to allow me to acknowledge my ancestors and return to the clan, so as to fulfill my filial duty Ying Zheng a son and complete the proper rites of human relations!"
"Allow!"
Born and raised in the State of Zhao State, the descendants of Zhao State Qin people finally returned to their homeland at this moment.
Next.
Nameless began to personally teach the young Ying Zheng how to use a sword, forging his own Sword of the Son of Heaven.
They not only practiced swordsmanship, but also learned various cultural, political, and military knowledge.
She said she wouldn't become a teacher, but in reality, she became the most perfect teacher!
Artoria watched the video, lost in thought, "Nameless, I was wondering why you were so skilled back then..."
When they first met, he taught her the same thing.
This allowed her to gradually grow from an ordinary girl into a qualified queen.
This guy, who also said he wouldn't be her teacher or her knight, became the most perfect teacher and knight!
"So, you had already taught Ying Zheng beforehand!"
Artoria frowned slightly.
Having seen videos related to Joan, she became completely indifferent to their relationship.
Because she lived more than a thousand years earlier than the other person.
But now, Ying Zheng is seven hundred years older than her!
No, no, this is a man, it's probably, perhaps, possibly, unrealistic for him to compete with her for Wuming...
Keep watching.
A crucial juncture has arrived.
First Emperor Shi Huang's grandfather, Anguo Jun, who had been observing a year of mourning, died just three days after ascending the throne.
First Emperor's father, Ying Yiren, also died after only three years on the throne.
On his deathbed, Ying Yiren appointed Lu Buwei, who had previously invested in him, as Ying Zheng's Uncle-Father, to assist the young child in his place.
At the tender age of 13, Ying Zheng became the new King of Qin!
[The three-year period has ended; supplies are ready for the First Emperor's return to the throne!]
[Wow, it really is a three-year period! He returned home and was crowned king in just three years!]
[The First Emperor lived two years earlier than King Arthur, who pulled the Sword in the Stone at the age of fifteen!]
[The true beginning of all legends!]
Under the curious gaze of countless onlookers.
The young and inexperienced King of Qin sat on the throne, filled with trepidation.
After everyone had left...
The nameless man stood before him, smiling, and asked, "How are you feeling?"
"Sigh, sir, no one in the hall cares about me. They all treat me like a little kid." Young Ying Zheng sighed softly.
Having just been crowned king, he had no authority whatsoever, and everyone listened only to his Uncle-Father, Lu Buwei.
He was clearly just a puppet in everyone's eyes.
"That's normal."
Nameless stepped forward, intending to reach out and pat the other's head, but then remembered that the other was already the King of Qin, and stopped above the other's head.
However.
Unexpectedly, the other person tilted their head slightly and nuzzled his hand!
"..."
Upon seeing this, Zhuge Liang chose to remain silent and lower his head.
We're doomed!
This is really bad.
The intention was clearly to showcase the First Emperor's perfect and invincible power to Britain, but this scene unfolded instead.
Is this the majestic and awe-inspiring First Emperor?
This is clearly Public Execution of someone with Black History!
Mordred stared wide-eyed, looking back and forth between the screen and the expressionless First Emperor.
Alaya must be mistaken.
How could that be!
How could the First Emperor, the First Emperor of the world who defied the gods of the Lighthouse, be so adorable?
The barrage of comments had completely exploded, with countless people spamming "AWSL" and saying things like, "From today onwards, this is Ah Wei's mass grave."
There's no way around it, the contrast between their appearance and their personality is just too strong, it's really hard to resist.
Conference hall.
The group wisely remained silent, fearing they might anger the First Emperor.
The video continued playing despite the eerie atmosphere.
Wuming paused for a moment, then reached out and placed his hand on the young King of Qin's head, smiling as he said, "As a ruler, you only need to remember one sentence: if you achieve this, you will be Eternal Emperor!"
"Please instruct me, sir." Ying Zheng bowed respectfully.
The nameless man said softly, "To establish a moral compass for Heaven and Earth, to secure a destiny for the people, to continue the lost learning of the sages, and to usher in an era of peace for all generations!"
"Sir, could you please explain in more detail?"
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, as if he could see a bright future.
"Heaven and earth have no heart, but man has a heart. To establish a heart for heaven and earth is to use one's own heart to represent the heart of heaven, to be just and righteous, and to punish on behalf of heaven."
The nameless figure stood with his hands behind his back, exuding an ethereal and otherworldly aura. "To establish a life for the people means to grant them security and allow them to enjoy life."
"To pass on the teachings of the sages and usher in an era of lasting peace!"
To put it simply...
Ying Zheng seemed to understand. "Sir, I understand!"
The previously vague thoughts became completely clear at this moment.
Ying Zheng suddenly smiled and said, "Sir, you may not know, but I originally did not want to be the King of Qin."
As a hostage stranded in an enemy country, his only dream from the beginning was to escape back to Qin.
When he first met the nameless man and chose to follow him to learn the Sword of the Son of Heaven, he was still pondering what to do in the future.
Even after ascending to the throne of King of Qin and ruling the most powerful kingdom in the world, he was still somewhat lost.
But now, he finally understands what he should do.
"Tell me about it," Wuming said with a slight smile.
The young Ying Zheng stood tall and declared, "The powerful of the world are all high above, unbound by the laws of the mortal realm. I will go forth to establish justice for Heaven and Earth, and to punish on behalf of Heaven."
"Years of famine have left countless people starving and their lives hanging by a thread. I will go forth to save the lives of these people."
"The various schools of thought emerged one after another, each vying to promote their own doctrines, even waging wars and plunging the world into endless chaos. I will go forth to continue the lost learning of the past sages."
"The Western Zhou Dynasty has fallen, and centuries of war have raged, with various feudal lords constantly at war. I am going to bring peace to the world for all generations!"
"Sir, would you be willing to follow me and create a peaceful and prosperous world?"
His body trembled slightly, but his eyes remained fixed on the other person, anxiously awaiting an answer.
Then.
The nameless man smiled and cupped his hands in greeting, "The road ahead is long, but I am willing to travel it with the King of Qin!"
Their conversation caused the live chat to explode.
[This conversation was absolutely brilliant, I was blown away! The First Emperor wanted to impose his own will on Heaven and usher in an era of peace for all generations!]
May all Everyone like a Dragon, and may we forever enjoy a peaceful and prosperous world!
[The First Emperor was awesome! The Nameless One was awesome! This conversation is absolutely thrilling!]
[So handsome! From an ordinary person's perspective, His Majesty truly deserves to be Eternal Emperor!]
I think I understand now why the First Emperor burned books and buried scholars alive!
At the dining table.
Gilgamesh expertly cooked beef in the hot pot while glancing at the large screen. "Truly worthy of being on par with me. Ordinary people simply couldn't utter such words."
To establish a moral compass for Heaven and Earth, to secure a destiny for the people, to continue the lost learning of the sages, and to usher in an era of peace for all generations!
Just by saying those words, one can realize how extremely difficult it is.
"So, why did you just come to my house for a free meal so casually?" Wei Gong rolled his eyes.
I was just eating hotpot by myself when this guy suddenly showed up and started mooching off me like he owned the place.
"Don't forget, you still owe me 220 million. What's wrong with me having a meal with you? I didn't even mortgage your house; that's already out of consideration for our Dear Friend!"
Gilgamesh glanced sideways at the other person with his crimson eyes and deliberately took the marbled beef from their plate.
Mmm, it smells delicious!
It turns out, what's in someone else's bowl always tastes the best!
"..."
Wei Gong was speechless.
You're certainly putting on that arrogant, high-and-mighty King of Heroes act.
What's so special about being a warm-hearted citizen of Fuyuki City?
Wei Gong felt that Fuyuki City was becoming increasingly unbearable, and it seemed he would have to carry the brat away overnight.
He turned his head to look at the LCD screen.
A passionate and impassioned conversation brought back memories of those years.
It was fate and destiny that led the young boy to become the First Emperor, a path he fought tirelessly for throughout his life, a path that even pained him.
"I never imagined you had this kind of relationship with the First Emperor. So why did you treat me like that?"
Gilgamesh stared at him coldly.
Compared to other Heroic Spirit, he suffered the worst treatment.
"No, no, Alaya should release the relevant reveal video later, and all the fans you lost in Unlimited Blade Works will come back!"
Wei Gong placed a slice of beef on the other person's plate.
"Real??"
Gilgamesh didn't believe a word he said.
Before targeting Merlin and reading "The Oath Under the Snow," the other party assured him that he would never appear.
As it turned out, the one who appeared was none other than Angelica, who could be considered his female version of the hero!
"Of course it's true. If I dare to lie to you, then stab me with the Calamity Sword!" Wei Gong answered without hesitation.
That Timeline is when Golden Flash was at his most popular.
"Fine, I'll trust you this once, you bastard."
Gilgamesh looked at the other person with utter disdain.
His crimson eyes were filled with distrust.
