Xun Yu's words fell to the ground, and discussions arose in the court hall. Suddenly, there was silence, and all the ministers shut their mouths at this time.

The eyes look at the nose, the nose looks at the heart!

Looking back from the sidelines, today's events are full of weirdness. If you don't know the truth, it's better to stay less involved.

No matter how powerful Cui Yan, the Minister of War, made all the ministers compete for peace, even Xun Lao, the prime minister of the dynasty, was willing to lag behind.

It can be seen that Cui Yan has become a success later.

No one would refute at this time, let alone confront Emperor Qin.

Emperor Qin squinted his eyes. He was happy with the result, but he always felt that something was wrong.

Today, there were many things that he did not expect.

First, he did not expect that Xun Yu would not be firm and agreed with his view of establishing Shaolin as the state religion.

Just when he was in trouble, Cui Yan appeared.

This is the second reason. It is normal for Cui Yan to feel resentful. The reasons have been explained earlier.

But what surprised him was when Cui Yan had so much energy that he could make hundreds of officials follow him.

With Cui Yan's prestige, it is absolutely impossible.

There is definitely something fishy between this.

Emperor Qin was in deep thought and fell silent for a moment. Naturally, the officials did not dare to say a word, and the hall fell silent.

"Is it a Taoist sect?" Emperor Qin frowned slightly and looked at the many ministers of His Highness. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that this was the case.

The last thing I want Shaolin to become the state religion of the Qin Dynasty is Taoism.

With the energy of the Taoist sect, it is easy to win over ministers, but don't expect these ministers to be truly loyal and patriotic.

Since the Taoist sect took action, it was just right. Emperor Qin was sure that even if Shaolin came to trouble him, the Taoist sect would definitely not give up.

"Ahem, since you all feel that it is inappropriate to establish Shaolin as the state religion, I will put this matter aside for the time being and discuss it later."

Emperor Qin pretended to have an ugly look on his face, coughed, and said in a deep voice.

The tone was not very good, which made all the ministers feel relieved and heaved a sigh of relief.

I'm afraid that in his anger, your Majesty will arrest a few ministers and kill chickens to scare the monkeys.

"Your Majesty is wise!" All the ministers bowed and said in unison.

Many ministers raised their heads slightly and glanced at Cui Yan. He must be the biggest winner today.

With today's scene, Cui Shangshu's status in the court has undoubtedly been established. No matter what tricks are involved, whether it is true or false, it cannot change this fact.

Cui Yan relied on his personal power to reverse the situation in the court. This is not something that a minister can do.

What's more, Mr. Xun Yuxun seconded Cui Shangshu's proposal today, which shows that he has recognized Cui Yan.

"If you have something to do, please leave the court. If there is nothing to do, please leave the court." The eunuch on the side sang loudly with a sharp voice after receiving the Qin Emperor's permission.

"Congratulations to Your Majesty!"

Under the sound of farewell, Emperor Qin left the hall with a dark face.

After Emperor Qin left, many ministers came up to Cui Yan and expressed their congratulations.

Cui Yan greeted each other with a smile, offered his hands, and returned the gifts one after another without any hint of arrogance.

When they were almost gone, the old Xun Yu walked over slowly, patted Cui Yan on the shoulder, nodded, and walked out of the hall without saying a word.

Cui Yan didn't show any joy, narrowed his eyes slightly, and watched Xun Yu walk out of the hall in a hurry.

Cui Yan couldn't guess what Xun Yu meant by this action, but he had to be on guard, even if this old guy helped him just now.

There were countless conspiracies and schemes in the officialdom, and it was impossible to guard against them, so he had to be careful.

As for Taoist help, you can't rely too much on it.

The establishment of a state religion in Shaolin failed during this court meeting, and almost everyone in the court, both civil and military, opposed it.

Of course, Emperor Qin had no intention of fighting. Otherwise, with the high concentration of imperial power in Qin, how could the emperor lose to his ministers.

This matter was not discussed until Emperor Qin announced that it would be postponed for further discussion. The ministers knew that Emperor Qin did not want to argue.

The ministers knew it well, but no one dared to say anything. This was probably the real intention of Xun Yu's last comment.

Of course, this is somewhat of an afterthought.

As the saying goes, see through but don't tell, that's probably the case.

Emperor Qin returned to the imperial study, and King Yan was sitting inside.

"How is it?" King Yan took a sip of tea and asked calmly.

Emperor Qin smiled and said, "This is not easy. How could the ministers agree? Naturally they objected, so I agreed. I think I can't hide it from that old fox Xun Yu, but it doesn't matter. This person should not have any connection with Shaolin."

King Yan nodded, this was completely consistent with his guess.

Today, he deliberately did not go to court to make it clear that this matter had nothing to do with him. Whether he opposed or agreed, it had nothing to do with him.

"However, there is something strange today." Emperor Qin looked at King Yan and told him what was going to be discussed in court today.

When King Yan heard this, he didn't even think about it and said, "Cui Yan? How could a mere minister of the Ministry of War have such power? It was just the Taoist sect that was playing tricks on him."

No matter what, we just went along with our wishes and instigated the relationship between Shaolin and Taoism. There will be no possibility for them to join forces in the future.

Soon, Shaolin will enter the palace. You tell the truth and tell Shaolin clearly about the Taoist sect's obstruction.

Taoism and Shaolin will fight sooner or later, which is what you want. After that, you can leave. "

After hearing this, Emperor Qin showed a cheerful smile on his face and said with relief, "Okay, this is over. I must leave. I have had enough here."

King Yan looked at the seat that everyone longed for. He didn't expect that the person in front of him would be so dismissive. He couldn't help but shook his head. There are always people in the world whose thoughts you can't guess.

"Huh, we can finally leave!" Emperor Qin breathed a long sigh of relief, which he had been holding in the small room because he was so bored.

King Yan was in a daze, not knowing what he was thinking. When he woke up, he suddenly asked suddenly, "I have always been curious, who are you? Is this king lucky enough to know?"

Emperor Qin was stunned. He knew that King Yan had always wanted to know his identity, but he had been holding back and didn't ask. He thought King Yan would ask when he left?

Emperor Qin smiled and said, "I am a nobody, not worth mentioning. I am afraid of dirtying the prince's ears if I speak out."

King Yan shook his head, looked directly into Emperor Qin's eyes, and said solemnly, "You can't be a nobody. Even I can't recognize you from the time you imitate your brother.

Not only me, but also all the ministers, not even the immortals in the Enshrinement Court can see through this.

If you tell me that you are a nobody, that would be too much. I know you have a lot of talents there, but there must not be many like you. "

"Haha, His Highness King Yan must have been holding back these words for a long time, and it's hard for His Highness King Yan.

However, His Highness is really observant, and I admire him very much. ” Emperor Qin couldn’t help but laugh and cupped his hands towards King Yan.

After saying this, Emperor Qin stretched out three fingers and fell into King Yan's eyes.

Suddenly, King Yan's pupils shrank suddenly, with an incredible look on his face, and he said in disbelief, "Then why is your strength..."

"Haha, the news His Highness the King of Yan heard was just hearsay and should not be taken seriously." Emperor Qin smiled and shook his head to deny the common knowledge of King Yan.
