Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 241 Prince Gao proclaims himself king, and they scheme against each other!

Feng Quji smiled slightly and explained, "During this period, I have discovered that the strength of the Southern Territory is indeed extraordinary. If you can cooperate with them, you may really have a chance to unify the world again. This is the real reason why I pretended to agree."

After listening to Feng Quji's words, Gongzi Gao was not very excited. Instead, he did not hold any hope. The reason was very simple. Now the entire southern border was under the control of Gao Yao. He was afraid that the final world would not belong to him.

"What you want, sir, may be difficult to achieve."

"Now I have pretended to surrender and become your prime minister to dispel Gao Yao's concerns. This is not impossible to do, but we need to wait for the right time. Now that we are in the southern border, you don't have anyone close to you, let alone someone you can trust. Since Gao wants you to be the King of Qin, you just need to cooperate. When the news of your reputation spreads, we will secretly train people loyal to you, and there will be opportunities at that time..."

When hearing what Feng Quji said here, Gongzi Gao hurriedly stopped Feng Quji who wanted to continue speaking, and gestured around him. There was no way the entire mansion was filled with Gao Yao's spies, and Gongzi Gao was very clear about this.

"Sir, be careful with your words!" Gongzi Gao said in a low voice, looking around nervously, fearing that Gao Yao's ears and eyes would hear their conversation. After all, the mansion was full of spies arranged by Gao Yao. This was why Gongzi Gao chose to meet Feng Quji in the small courtyard. He was worried that someone would hear their conversation.

Feng Quji also realized his mistake and his face changed slightly, but he quickly regained his composure. He nodded slightly, indicating that he understood Gongzi Gao's concerns. The two looked at each other tacitly.

Gongzi Gao took a deep breath and quickly lowered his voice, "Sir, I know your plan is very good, but at this time and here, we must act cautiously. Gao Yao's power is huge, and we can't easily expose our intentions."

At this time, in Gao Yao's mansion, Erniu had already arrived in front of Gao Yao. At this time, Gao Yao was wearing a golden tiger-head armor and a purple gold crown. He was tall and mighty, with a handsome and majestic face, and looked like Lu Bu, the most powerful general in the Three Kingdoms. There was nothing he could do about it. Before Gao Yao traveled through time, if there was anyone who yearned for and was most impressed by those ancient armors, it was Lu Bu.

There was no way before, but now it is different. He no longer needs to consider the court. Gao Yao has the final say on how and what he wants to wear. Although he cannot say that he is comparable to Lu Bu, in terms of military strength, Gao Yao is definitely qualified.

"My lord, people have entered Master Gao's mansion," Erniu said respectfully.

"Well, that's good. Just wait and see about the rest. There's no need to stop it."

Gao Yao nodded, his eyes deep and cold. Earlier, Feng Quji had come to Gao Yao's residence and said that he was willing to serve as the prime minister and help appease Master Gao. Gao Yao would naturally not refuse. In fact, Gao Yao had already seen through the other party's little thoughts.

"Well, it's just..." Erniu spoke hesitantly.

"Just ask anything you want to ask!" Gao Yao looked at him with a hint of encouragement in his eyes.

Seeing Erniu actually want to ask questions, Gao Yao was very pleased. The person he trusted most was Erniu, and the longer this originally reckless and ignorant guy followed him, the more he grew. Not only did his martial arts skills improve, but more importantly, his mentality and intelligence had a qualitative leap.

"My lord, I feel that Feng Quji's attitude changes too quickly, which makes people feel uneasy. And there is also that Gongzi Gao. If the two of them conspire together, it may pose a threat to my lord." Erniu frowned and said with a worried look on his face.

"Haha, of course I know that these two people will not be honest. Maybe they are now planning how to usurp my power or even murder my life in the future." Gao Yao sneered, with a hint of coldness in his eyes.

"My lord, since you have already guessed it, why don't you just let me kill them directly? This way, we can put an end to it all and avoid future troubles." Erniu clenched his fists and said in a firm tone.

"Look at you. I just praised you for your improvement, but now you've gone back to your old ways. It would be easy for me to kill those two people, but I left them this opportunity on purpose so that they could conspire together. If they want to unite against me, they must first learn to cooperate with me, and then look for opportunities to plot against me after my power grows. I've made it so clear, you should understand, right?"

"My Lord, do you want them to conspire together on purpose so that they can better cooperate with me in the early stages and avoid causing trouble for me?"

"Well, it's not so stupid! In this southern border area, whether it's soldiers or civilians, it's almost impossible for them to seize the opportunity. The only possibility is to wait for our army to conquer the whole world, secretly cultivate their own confidants in the name of Prince Gao, the King of Qin, and then take the opportunity to get rid of me. But to achieve these goals, they must cooperate with me. And this kind of cooperation is exactly what I need."

"As for Feng Quji, he is indeed capable and insightful. We should use him whenever possible. How can he cooperate if we don't give him hope? We just need to keep an eye on these people in secret. Remember to send some of your trusted aides to Gongzi Gao when the time is right. Do you understand?"

"Yes, my lord is wise!"

Listening to Gao Yao's words, Erniu was even more impressed. He admired Gao Yao's ability to calculate people's hearts. Erniu admired him very much.

As time passed, the moment of ascending the throne finally arrived. The entire Nanhai County was under strict control, and the atmosphere was tense and solemn. The young master sat high in the gorgeous carriage and left his mansion with a solemn expression. Next to him sat Gao Yao, who was responsible for leading the carriage forward. Behind the carriage followed the generals of the Southern Border Army at all levels. They were dressed in bright armor and walked in a neat and powerful pace. They marched towards the newly built altar.

When the carriage arrived at the altar, Gongzi Gao got off the carriage and respectfully bowed three times and kowtowed nine times to the bronze incense burner on the altar. Then, he slowly and solemnly climbed up the altar and stood in front of everyone.

"The late emperor unified the six kingdoms, built the Great Wall to shake the dragon veins of the nine states, ruled the world, and made the people of the world united. However, now that Fusu has ascended the throne, he has attempted to split our great Qin Empire. As a descendant of the late emperor, I will never tolerate such behavior that undermines the foundation of the Qin Empire. Therefore, today I will ascend the throne and become the King of Qin, determined to emulate the late emperor, quell the rebellious forces in all directions, recapture the lost Qin territory, and restore the former glory of the Qin Empire!"
