Gao Wu Da Qin: You don't want your secret to be known, do you?

Chapter 115 Joint Trial by Three Officials: Throwing Qin Feng to the Moon

In Xianyang City, the royal palace has not held a morning court session for three consecutive weeks. -漫~*'¨¯¨'*·舞~ ❻➈ᔕᕼ𝕌ˣ.¢ỖΜ ~舞*'¨¯¨'*·~漫-

This was extremely rare for the court officials of the Qin Dynasty.

It should be noted that Ying Zheng, the contemporary king of Qin, was the king of all kings!

While other monarchs might be considered diligent in reviewing thirty documents a day, Ying Zheng declared that he would start with three hundred!

Other rulers who could work for six hours a day were considered wise, but Ying Zheng said that he would rest for six hours and work the rest of the time!

It's unbelievable that a king in such a prestigious kingdom would not hold a morning court session for three weeks! It's like a dream!

Although in some years Ying Zheng would not attend court for ten or eight days, this time it was three weeks! More than twenty days, which was almost unprecedented since Ying Zheng ascended the throne.

Of course, this doesn't mean that all ministers can take paid leave. For example, the three highest-ranking officials, Prime Minister Li Si, Grand Commandant Bai Qi, and Imperial Censor Ying Kui, a newly promoted elder of the royal family, are working overtime day and night.

However, none of this escaped the notice of Gai Nie, the Grand Commander of the Inner Court.

The reason why Your Majesty hasn't rested for so many days can be traced back to more than ten days ago when Prince Fusu brought a document to see Your Majesty.

Gai Nie witnessed firsthand how many changes the King's expression made after seeing the document Fusu brought—more than Ying Zheng had made in the entire previous year.

Upon seeing the dossier, the king flew into a rage, smashing the table to pieces and angrily rebuking the person, saying, "You've got some nerve! What you've done is a betrayal of the Heavenly Gang, courting death! You deserve to be reduced to ashes!"

The king's rage lasted for an unknown period of time, but he finally couldn't hold back and picked up the dossier again, his anger turning into calm.

This calm expression didn't last long before a slight smile appeared on his face. He muttered to himself, "This bastard, he still knows what he's doing. He knows he deserves to die, so why does he still have to court death?"

As the king continued reading, a look of doubt appeared on his face, which was quickly replaced by astonishment. After astonishment came deep thought, followed by a few sighs. After sighs, he continued reading and pondering. Occasionally, he would suddenly laugh, occasionally clapping his hands in admiration, but more often he would curse incessantly, saying that this kid had been lenient with his words and actions on his humanities exam back then. This business plan of his was simply a poisonous scheme that would destroy the ancestral graves of the seven kingdoms!

My cruelest idea regarding the six kingdoms is to wipe out their royal families, but what I really want to do is to dig up their ancestral graves!

This person's inner darkness and viciousness are simply the work of a devil among men!

Then, on the seventh day, the king had finished reading all of someone's business plans and summoned the three ministers to the palace to discuss important matters.

Then, Grand Commandant Wu'an Lord Bai Qi, Chancellor Li Si, and Imperial Censor Ying Kui hurriedly came to the royal palace to discuss matters.

When Ying Zheng faced the three dukes, he first confessed the fact that Qin Feng had returned.

Upon hearing this, Ying Kui was the first to become restless. Originally a third clan elder, Ying Kui had spent decades sitting on the sidelines before finally reaching the position of chief clan elder. He had hoped to lead the royal family in a power struggle with Fu Su. However, upon hearing that Qin Feng had returned, Ying Kui instantly realized the deeper meaning behind Fu Su's meaningful smile when they brushed past each other yesterday morning. It meant that Fu Su was already preparing to take action against the royal family. Fu Su's ally had returned, and the two of them would definitely be sharpening their knives to slaughter the royal family! Ying Kui secretly rejoiced that the king had told him this news; otherwise, he was afraid that the royal family would be bleed dry by Fu Su again.

The second one to get restless was Li Si. Wasn't the journey across the world supposed to take him to the Eighteen Heavens and Blessed Lands, the Immortal Realm? What was the point of coming back? Could it be that the Master's opponent wasn't a powerful demon from the demon race, but the head of one of the Hundred Schools of Thought? Why did this boomerang, which had been shot out, come back to him? But it wouldn't be right to say that the journey across the world couldn't return to the human world. After all, as the head of the Legalist School, Li Si followed the rules, and there didn't seem to be a rule in the rules of the journey across the world that forbade the coachman from returning to his hometown to rest.

As for Grand Commandant Wu'an Jun Bai Qi, Wu'an Jun said that the two of you can't sit still because you have too little self-control. I can sit still, and I sit very steadily. I love war the most. Now that this scoundrel has returned, it means that war is about to break out. I, Bai Qi, couldn't be happier!

However, Bai Qi soon couldn't sit still any longer.

Because Ying Zheng said that this was not a war, but a business transaction.

This remark left Bai Qi completely bewildered. What was the king up to?

When facing the Three Dukes, Ying Zheng naturally couldn't directly say that he wanted to do business with Qiongqi, the great demon of the Hongmeng Abyss Throne. Saying that would be tantamount to betraying the human race. Humans and demons cannot coexist; this is a matter of principle.

Ying Zheng simply said, "Qin Feng discovered a large number of rare materials and resources for forging mechs during his training in the Hongmeng Abyss. These resources can greatly improve the quality of mechs, and it's not a problem for all mechs to be upgraded by one major level! Our Great Qin now has the hope of establishing a special mech brigade of classical mechs! Qin Feng has already contacted some of the demon race to provide materials for our human race. What do you all think?"

Bai Qi declared that this matter had to be addressed! Regardless of the origin of the materials, as long as they could be used by the Qin army to enhance its combat effectiveness, they were valuable resources! As for whether the resources came from the enemy, did that matter? Didn't we learn all our technology from the six states? Hadn't we learned enough from our enemies?

Grand Censor Ying Kui vehemently objected, "Are the demon race reliable? Could they ambush us? Deceive us? We can learn technology from the six states, at least those states are still human, but are the demon race human? If this gets out, what will the six states think of us? What will the human race think? Can our Great Qin still claim to be the legitimate ruler of humanity? If we lose our righteousness, everything will be lost!"

Li Si said that this matter was too complicated and he would like to think about it before speaking.

Ying Zheng looked at the three men, but did not rush to a conclusion. Instead, he asked the three dukes to begin their debate.

Then, from the eighth day to the eighteenth day, Bai Qi and Ying Kui argued until their faces turned red. In the end, even the national essence of the Qin people began to fly around, with Bai Qi calling Ying Kui an old-fashioned person and Ying Kui calling him a traitor to the human race.

Prime Minister Li Si was the most tactful. He first stated that although the law stipulated that those who traded with the Seven Kingdoms and the Demon Clan should be executed, there was currently no law stipulating that those who traded with the Hundred Schools of Thought and the Demon Clan should be executed! Therefore, from a legal point of view, trading with Demon Clan spies was both a violation of the ancestral laws and not a violation of the ancestral laws. I, Li Si, am willing to call this situation a violation of the law!

Fortunately, on the tenth day, after fruitful and in-depth communication...

The three parties finally reached a relatively consistent opinion.

Grand Censor Ying Kui stated that he had two principles: First, the success or failure of this matter must not implicate the King, and the King must not be tainted in any way by the association with the demon race! This is the primary condition for upholding the orthodoxy of the Qin people! Second, Qin Feng must leave Xianyang. Last time Qin Feng came to Xianyang, the Grand Elder stepped down, and now our royal family cannot afford a second incursion by the strategists! I have only just assumed the position of Grand Elder, and I haven't even settled into it yet! Qin Feng's appearance will threaten my position with the power of the two Grand Elders, causing chaos within the royal family and hindering the stable development of Qin!

Grand Commandant Bai Qi stated that he had two bottom lines. First, this business deal must be executed as quickly and reliably as possible, and the Qin army must rise to prominence at the fastest speed! Second, he recommended Qin Feng as the executor of this mission. Qin Feng was wholeheartedly devoted to Qin, shrewd and resourceful, efficient in his work, and virtually impossible for anyone to betray him, ensuring that he would not lose money in the business.

After considering the bottom-line principles of the two individuals mentioned above, Prime Minister Li Si made a comprehensive arrangement, establishing a joint organization represented by the various schools of thought. This could be called the "World Travel Support Association," or the "World Travel Logistics Association." Officially, it would be to support the Master's travels throughout the world, providing necessary supplies and assistance. In reality, it would be for conducting trade with the demon race. This could be presented as the Master's spoils from hunting demons being distributed among the seven kingdoms, making it more acceptable. Furthermore, the members would primarily be from the seven kingdoms! This time, they absolutely could not keep it to themselves; the other six kingdoms had to participate. Only with the participation of all seven kingdoms would, if this matter were to be exposed later, no one would accuse Qin of colluding with the demon race; instead, it would be seen as all seven kingdoms colluding with the demon race. ✊👊 ➅➈ŜĤǗˣ.ς𝓞𝓂 ♟🐳

In this way, we occupy the moral high ground! No matter what the six states say, they have also taken the money, and in order to clean themselves up, they have to hold their noses and say that Qin has not colluded with the demon race.

At the same time, we must seize the initiative in this trade process, at the very least gaining a monopoly on precious resources! We can even use the allocation of these resources to sow discord among the other six states' blockade of Qin! We can even use resources to incite conflict between the demon race and the six states, thereby weakening their strength!

Ying Zheng evaluated the Three Dukes strategy, and the World Walkers Support Association was renamed the World Walkers Foundation! It was hosted by five schools of thought: the School of Diplomacy, the School of Legalism, the School of Military Strategy, the School of Gongshu, and the School of Yin and Yang. The venue was set in the uninhabited area on the far side of the moon. The School of Military Strategy was responsible for building a huge underground universe rare mineral resource market, the School of Gongshu was responsible for opening a green channel between the inner and outer universes, and the School of Legalism was responsible for maintaining the order of the Hundred Schools of Thought.

At the same time, the Yin-Yang School was appointed as special assistants to communicate and maintain the relationship between heaven and man, conceal heavenly secrets from heaven and man, and delay the time when the gods would discover them!

The three officials were to be appointed to oversee the matter, and then another question arose: who should be sent to supervise Qin Feng?

You should know that Qin Feng is notoriously difficult to please!

First and foremost, this person must be a trusted confidant of the King! Furthermore, they cannot be someone Qin Feng dislikes or treats with disrespectfully!

After much thought, only Fusu was the most suitable. Fusu and Qin Feng knew each other very well, and Qin Feng's tricks could not be hidden from the young master.

But Fusu is not an option. Fusu is the heir to the empire and represents the official power, while the Foundation is not involved in this matter between the seven nations!

Li Si, on the other hand, has many ideas. Since that's the case, let Prince Huhai go and manage the foundation with Qin Feng!

Hu Hai had studied armor forging under Qin Feng and was very familiar with him, so they could be considered master and disciple. He wouldn't be targeted by Qin Feng. In addition, Hu Hai was just a child at the moment, and among the princes, he was a candidate for successor, so he wouldn't attract attention.

Ying Kui objected, and Bai Qi said that Qin Feng was not a good person, and the young master was still young. If he was corrupted by Qin Feng, that would not be good!

However, Li Si and Bai Qi both said that he couldn't be taught badly, so the matter was passed by majority vote.

The meeting of the Twenty-Two Heavenly Kings of the Great Qin Dynasty finally came to an end late at night. As the three dukes returned to their residences, dozens of letters flew out of the royal palace, heading towards the heads of various schools of thought. The establishment of the foundation was imminent.

Similarly, a letter also arrived at Qin Feng's residence. After seeing the first message that Brother Zheng was going to kick him out of Xianyang, Qin Feng breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Feng had long anticipated that he wouldn't be able to stay in Xianyang for long. After all, he had just come to Xianyang to get rid of Wang Bo, and the new head of the family, Ying Kui, hadn't even settled in yet. The two elders were eyeing him covetously. At this point, the royal family wouldn't keep him in Xianyang. Now, he had indeed been driven out of Xianyang, even driven out of Earth, and exiled to the far side of the moon, three thousand miles away!

Secondly, Qin Feng was surprised to see that the person chosen to supervise him was Hu Hai. He secretly sighed, "Brother Zheng, you're so confused!"

If you teach Hu Hai to me, then Hu Hai will definitely go astray!

If Hu Hai learns my methods, wouldn't he hang Fusu up and beat him?

After that, the seven kingdoms were unified, how could Fusu possibly win the throne against Huhai?

Wouldn't Qin Er Shi then still be Hu Hai?

At this moment, Qin Feng felt an indescribable destiny, a terrifying destiny that even transmigrators could not resist. Even if he could make Fusu stronger and smarter, Huhai would still be the second emperor in the end.

That's enough! Why should an outsider like me think so much about the Wang family's affairs?

Emperor Zheng is at the height of his power, and given the mythological and sci-fi world setting of this era, he might still be on the throne ten thousand years from now.

Now it's time to pack my bags, leave Xianyang, head to the lunar military base, and begin my career as a foundation manager.

"Have you finished watching?"

Gai Nie sat there drinking tea, saying, "You've made the King look quite embarrassed!"

Qin Feng looked at his senior brother and chuckled, "Really? It's the King who made me look so pathetic! I offered my heart to the bright moon, but the bright moon turned to the gutter! I traveled thousands of miles back to Xianyang to serve the Great Qin, but the King just waved his hand and told me to get off the earth and be exiled 80,000 miles away to the far side of the moon to drink the northwest wind!"

"Haha!" Gai Nie laughed, "Young Master Hu Hai is also being exiled with you! Are you going to be all alone while you wait?"

Qin Feng put the letter away. "How have you been lately, Senior Brother?"

Gai Nie said, "I'm fine, but Xiao Zhuang isn't doing so well."

Qin Feng asked, "What's wrong with Senior Brother Wei Zhuang?"

Gai Nie said, "I'm injured, and the injury is quite serious."

Qin Feng was taken aback. "Senior Brother Wei Zhuang, you're injured? As far as I know, both of you were already at the Great Perfection of the Seventh Realm when you left Ghost Valley, and now you're at least at the Eighth or Ninth Realm! Everyone gets injured sometimes, there's no reason for you to be injured!"

Gai Nie said calmly, "There are countless strong people in the world, and it's normal for them to get injured. The two of us aren't as strong as you think! This time, Xiao Zhuang was surrounded and attacked by the Yan Kingdom's assassin alliance. If it weren't for the several Quicksand experts who risked their lives to protect him, he probably would have met with misfortune!"

Qin Feng asked, "Is Prince Dan stirring up trouble behind the scenes?"

"I don't know," Gai Nie said. "This time, the Seven Kingdoms Foundation, Prince Dan is ostensibly the deposed crown prince, and I estimate he will come. If you see Prince Dan, be sure to interrogate him."

Qin Feng squinted and said, "Understood! Is there anything else?"

Gai Nie said, "Since you've gone to Hongmeng Abyss, help investigate the whereabouts of Patriarch Pang Juan."

Qin Feng asked, "Pang Juan? Didn't he die in his battle with Grandmaster Sun Bin?"

"He died in battle," Gai Nie said. "But Ancestor Pang Juan was a great strategist of the School of Diplomacy, and a master of the Land Immortal Realm at the time. His physical body did die, but his soul did not perish. Ancestor Sun Bin took pity on him because he was a fellow disciple and released his soul. It is said in the sect that Ancestor Pang Juan's soul went beyond the mortal realm. Later, a great master of the Yin-Yang School said that they had seen Ancestor Pang Juan's soul in the Hongmeng Abyss. You have close ties with the Hongmeng Abyss, so inquire about it. Consider it a sect mission."

Qin Feng nodded. "I understand!"

Gai Nie continued, "There's another personal matter of mine. You promised to forge a mecha for me, and almost half a year has passed. Don't you have any ideas yet?"

"Especially after Xiao Zhuang's attack this time, I've come to a profound realization of the importance of mechs. The days of roaming the martial world with a single sword are over!"

"Modern space assassins are all about cyberpunk, with incredible strength and the ability to throw bricks! You need to step up your game and get the mech built right now. My job is so dangerous; without it, I really can't do anything!"

Qin Feng hesitated, then said, "Senior brother, I've been considering your mecha. My mecha skills are improving rapidly, and I'm about to reach a new level. After a while, once I reach that new level, and I become the president of the foundation, the materials will be easy to obtain, right? Then you and Senior Brother Wei Zhuang can both have their mechas arranged!"

Gai Nie nodded. "Very good! Is there anything you want me to tell the teacher?"

Qin Feng rubbed his hands and said, "Could you give the teacher some advice? Stop making empty promises. Our sect is all about empty promises. It's not good for him to keep making empty promises. I've been in the sect for so long, and I haven't received a single benefit! But I've made such a great contribution to the sect! Especially this foundation. If it succeeds, our School of Diplomacy can brag about it for hundreds of years! The teacher will also be proud!"

Gai Nie said, "You want your teacher to give you some tangible benefits?"

Qin Feng laughed and said, "It would be best if you could send it, but I won't complain if you can't. I'm a very honest person."

Faced with Qin Feng's nonsense, Gai Nie scoffed, "If I didn't tell him, you might be cursing the teacher behind his back, wishing he wouldn't be able to eat four dishes! I'll pass that on to the teacher. The moon isn't far away, keep in touch when you have time!"

Qin Feng laughed and said, "Alright! Take care, Senior Brother!"

Watching Gai Nie leave, Qin Feng gritted his teeth and thought to himself, "Prince Dan, isn't that the current leader of the Mohist School? Dealing with him will be difficult!"

As for the soul of Patriarch Pang Juan, that's easy enough. Just ask the Seven-Headed Guhuoniao. The old bird has an incredibly extensive network of connections, so it shouldn't be a problem.

Most importantly, Qin Feng is determined to get the position of president of the foundation!

This position is extremely important. Not only are there abundant resources, but it also grants significant influence. Once you obtain this position, you can truly realize your dream of holding the seals of prime minister of six kingdoms.

The most important thing now is to improve one's martial arts level and mecha skills.

In terms of martial arts prowess, after nearly 30 days of training in the Demon Realm, I have obtained all 100 attribute points from daily tasks, but my mental capacity is only developed to 30%! I am still far from reaching 40% to learn the second stage of the [Divine Forging Diagram]!

Fortunately, there's always a way out. Recently, Qin Feng has been frantically collecting corpses and gaining experience through his [Coroner] secondary profession, while also attracting a lot of souls to his little planet. Resilient souls reward him with Wishing Ink, while Brilliant and Platinum souls reward him with attribute points!

Qin Feng has now collected 36 souls, including one brilliant soul, which directly gave Qin Feng 1 attribute point!

If every soul that follows is a brilliant soul, then at least 64 more souls can be stored, which is 64 attribute points!

If there is a Platinum Soul in the middle, one Platinum Soul is worth 2 attribute points, so it is very likely to break 100 attribute points!

With over 100 attribute points, I can easily increase my brainpower to 40%! I'll learn the Earth-grade crafting technique [Divine Forging Diagram] and the second/fifth volume of [Chi You's Mystic Weapon]!

At that time, I will be able to build mechs with a grade of Earth or higher and a combat power of Heaven or higher!

With the added boost from the second tier of the [Chi You Mystic Weapon], its combat power is probably comparable to that of a Desolate Rank!

By then, my fellow disciples, your own defensive capabilities will be guaranteed.

Just like this time, if Wei Zhuang had a classical mecha of Earth grade or above, he would definitely not have been seriously injured by anyone!

At this stage, there are still several months before I can leave Xianyang. After all, the foundation headquarters on the far side of the moon has not been established yet, so it is impossible for me to set off!

Let's use this free time to clear the seventh level of the Demon Realm dungeon! Let's see what secrets the seventh level of the Demon Realm holds!

Qin Feng lay back in the armchair and immersed himself in his demonic clone.
