The courtyard was quite deep, and the flowers were falling. Five years had passed, and in these five years, Great Qin's Cavalry had dominated the world. It seemed that all of its enemies had been destroyed, but some things were already brewing.
" Sometimes, you can only see different beautiful scenery when you stand on a high place." Ying Xi stood on the high platform with his hands behind his back." What the Twelfth Young Master said is right. Many times, people are only limited by their horizons and their hearts." The person beside Ying Xi was a red-haired, devilish charm. It was Zhao Gao.
"Lord Zhao has always been sharp. Do you think the world is peaceful now?”，Zhao Gao narrowed his eyes and smiled." Zhao Gao is inexperienced. I wonder if you have any brilliant ideas?"”，Ying Xi laughed out loud." Lord Zhao is in charge of the net, but those rebels are terrified by it. How can such a peerless plan be considered shallow?”。
"Zhao Gao is only doing this for the empire, and his methods are only for the long-term stability of the empire," Ying Xi said with a smile."Lord Zhao, I admire your dedication to the country. However, I heard that there are many experts in the network. The most outstanding ones are at the Heaven level and each of them holds a famous sword. Their combat strength is at the top of the entire Jianghu.”，Zhao Gao was a little confused.
" Young Master, those guys are all vicious. If there's anything you need, just tell Zhao Gao." Zhao Gao sighed inwardly. This young master was scheming and experienced. Although he was still a little immature compared to the First Emperor, his eyes were sharper. His methods had little effect on him.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a mix of emotions. He originally wanted to be an opportunist and gain the gratitude of the First Emperor's favored prince. He didn't expect that this prince would make everyone believe that he was already his without saying anything. This made him very mad. One had to know that there were many princes in the First Emperor. Ying Xi wasn't the noblest prince among all the princes. There were many people who were more powerful than his mother, such as the eldest son Fu Su. His bloodline was the noblest. If it wasn't for that reason, he might be the well-deserved heir. However, in that case, his position would be on the verge of collapse. If he couldn't find an heir among these princes, he would create a new heir. However, since he was entangled with this young master, everything was different.
He had always thought that only schemes and plots were the most terrifying weapons. However, when he met this young master, he realized that there was something called an open scheme in the world. A perfect teacher who could fight against the enemy. Even he felt that he was the rightful heir of the empire. He lived a very disciplined life and could not be criticized at all. Ever since the First Emperor let him go to the Lin Hall to observe politics and then to the royal study to review the memorials, he had handled things very carefully. Even Prime Minister Li Si couldn't replace his position. In the past few years, according to what he knew, many of the empire's government affairs were handled by this young master. Unknowingly, many officials had already regarded him as the rightful heir to the empire.
Under his light, all the princes were overshadowed. He originally wanted to find something to use against him so that he could take the initiative in cooperating with him, but there was no flaw at all. Moreover, the mysterious grandmaster who was secretly guarding the palace seemed to be related to him. In the past few years, he had used the power of the network to cultivate a lot of power, and he was completely entangled with him. The most important thing in politics was the symbol of representation. Once it was attached to his label, it would be difficult to remove it. No one would trust a subject who easily abandoned the person he was loyal to. In this world, benevolence, righteousness, and morality could not restrain him. However, as long as one had desires, he would care about something. This young master seemed to be able to see through people's hearts and knew what he wanted. It would be very pleasant to cooperate with smart people. However, whether it was a blessing or a curse to cooperate with such a terrifying person depended on his means. Thinking of this, even he was curious. How far could such a matchless son go? Would he rule the world or be crushed into pieces?
His eyes flashed with a fleeting malice, but it quickly disappeared without a trace." Lord Zhao, the anti-Qin forces in the martial world have been stirring up trouble recently. These people aren't worth worrying about. However, the forces of the Six Nations haven't really disappeared. Instead, they're brewing plots to restore the country. The Hundred Schools of Thought are unpredictable, and the remnants of the Six Nations are stirring. If the empire wants to maintain peace and stability, not only must we appease the people, but we must also crush these forces."
Zhao Gao thought to himself. Although this young master did not advocate leniency in governing the country, he had never wantonly killed. Today, he took the initiative to propose to crush the forces of the six countries. It seemed that he had a deeper meaning. Could it be that he was no longer lying low? However, this seemed to be a very interesting thing. Just as he was about to agree, someone suddenly walked over and whispered something into Ying Xi's ear. Ying Xi's expression changed.
" There's no need to mumble. Just tell Lord Zhao that you know." The man glanced at the two of them and said a few words. Zhao Gao was also very surprised. After all, for so many years, he had wandered between life and death. There were very few things that could make him moved, but this matter was shocking.
Ying Xi sighed." The world is in turmoil."Of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, only I can dominate. Sigh, Great Qin won't be able to keep me, Master Gai, either. However, fighting against the Empire is a dead end. I just don't know how far he can go on this path," Zhao Gao said." Ge Nia doesn't know what's good for him. Even if he's a Sword Saint, he'll still be turned into dust by the Empire's fury. It's just that a few years ago, that little young master who was born to Empress Li Ji and mysteriously disappeared a few years ago also appeared by his side. From the looks of it, this little young master's disappearance back then wasn't a coincidence, but a meticulously planned matter. Of course, there was Empress Li Ji's cooperation in this, so this little young master's identity also seems to have become suspicious," Ying Xi said faintly." Empress Li Ji is Jing Ke's junior sister, and the two of them share a deep friendship. Jing Ke failed to assassinate Qin and was killed by Mister Ge Nia, and now, my little brother has appeared beside Ge Nia. The connection between the two of them is something that makes one think deeply."
"Young Master doesn't seem surprised by Ge Nia's betrayal?”，Ying Xi sighed." I owe Mr. Gai a debt of gratitude, and I know him very well. He is a true swordsman. As the saying goes, it is better to take from the straight path than to seek from the curved path. Once he has set his mind on something, he will use his life to carry it out." Zhao Gao said,""Ideals? Hmph, it's just an illusory thing. If you can't even see the path under your feet clearly, the path of unhindered will also become a dead end."
" Mister Gai's actions are undoubtedly provoking my father. As his son, I have to share his worries." Ying Xi had his reasons for doing this. He had already accumulated enough capital in the court. Perhaps even the First Emperor did not realize that his son had unknowingly steered the empire's ship away from its original direction.
He knew how strong Ge Nia's martial arts were, but to fight against a giant like the Qin Kingdom was like hitting a rock with an egg. He did not want to kill Ge Nia. He truly understood that once the empire was truly in operation, it would weave a large net without gaps. The crisis of the Qin Kingdom not only came from within, but also from the remnants of the six countries and the Hundred Schools of Thought. This was a great era, and thoughts were surging. If an empire could not be recognized by everyone, then it would be impossible for Ge Nia to become the leader of the Qin Empire. This meant that the foundation of this empire was not stable. In history, empires had disappeared due to internal and external conflicts. He was now the Prince of Great Qin, and this was an irresistible fate. If he could only stand on Great Qin's side, then ensuring that this empire was stable was his mission!
