If Fu Su had entered Zhangtai Palace a quarter of an hour earlier…
He would find that his father was still changing his clothes.
It could only be said that the timing was just right.
...
On the steps of the palace, Ying Zheng's left hand was pressed on the hilt of the Emperor's Sword, Tai'e, which was hung at his waist.
His dragon eyes were bright as he looked at Fu Su, who was bowing and cupping his hands.
Previously, there was a thick and heavy wall in the Heaven Prison, so he did not feel anything.
However, there was nothing blocking his sight now.
Ying Zheng suddenly realized.
His eldest son's temperament had changed.
He had seen him grow up under Jiang Chen's guidance.
However, it might be because he was in the imperial prison.
At that time, the feeling that Fu Su gave him did not change much.
After returning to the solemn, solemn, and magnificent Xianyang Palace.
The Eldest Young Master of Great Qin was emitting an aura that Ying Zheng was extremely familiar with.
That was the aura of the king path!
Although he still looked gentle and refined, like a modest gentleman.
However, his every word and action exuded a strong sense of confidence.
Ying Zheng, his father, felt extremely gratified by this.
After all, nothing could make a father happier than seeing his son grow up.
......
However, Ying Zheng did not show his emotions on his face.
His face was gloomy and extremely dignified.
He waved his sleeves and said to Fu Su,"
"Get up."
Hearing this, Fu Su thanked his father.
He slowly stood up straight.
His gaze met the First Emperor's.
There was no retreat at all.
Ying Zheng was getting more and more satisfied and gratified.
"Aren't you in the heavenly prison? Why did you suddenly enter the palace?"
Ying Zheng pretended that he had no idea what had happened.
Naturally, Fu Su would not know that his father was putting on an act.
He cupped his hands respectfully and said,"
"Father, Chunyu Yue went to the imperial prison.”
"He said that Imperial Father and the courtiers had a dispute yesterday, so he persuaded your son to be released from prison and enter the palace.”
"Chunyu Yue, this pedantic scholar." Ying Zheng snorted coldly in dissatisfaction, then looked down at Fu Su and said,"
"So, are you trying to persuade me to retract my order and let their actions succeed?”
Hearing this, Fu Su immediately shook his head in denial.
"Your son did not listen to the advice of Chunyu Yue and the other Confucians.”
"Father has his reasons for doing so.”
"Therefore, your son will not help them advise you, Imperial Father.”
"Oh?" Ying Zheng pretended to be surprised.
"Then why did you come out of prison and enter the palace?”
"Your son has come this time because I have something to ask Imperial Father.”Fu Su looked at his father with a determined gaze.
"Ask about what?"
"What was the reason for the opposition from the officials yesterday?”
"Did your son order someone to present the two plans for Great Qin in the bamboo scroll to Imperial Father?”
......
Ying Zheng was silent for a moment.
"Zhen, I don't know what you're talking about.”
"What bamboo slips? What two plans for Great Qin? I don't understand.”
Fu Su widened his eyes in disbelief.
"Then tell me, Imperial Father, what was the reason for the opposition from the officials yesterday and the kneeling outside Zhangtai Palace?”
"Fu Su, watch your attitude! Zhen is your Imperial Father!" Ying Zheng frowned slightly, seemingly very dissatisfied.
"Yes, your son was rude." Fu Su bowed and cupped his hands to admit that he was a little agitated just now and had offended his father's dignity.
"However, please inform your son.”
"If you don't say it, your son can actually go outside and ask those officials kneeling on the ground.”
"Alright! After entering the imperial prison, you actually learned how to threaten me now?”Ying Zheng slammed his palm on the dragon table and glared at Fusu.
However, Fu Su wasn't afraid at all. He looked like he was threatening him.
If you don't tell me, I'll go outside and ask someone else.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng was furious.
But in the end, he sighed helplessly.
"Yesterday, Zhen urgently gathered a group of officials and publicly issued two decrees.”
"And those courtiers, perhaps they felt that these two decrees would cause their interests to suffer losses, so they knelt outside Zhangtai Palace and forced me to abdicate.”
However, Fu Su was still not satisfied.
"Then what are the specific contents of the two decrees issued by Imperial Father?”
Bang!
Ying Zheng slammed his palm heavily on the dragon table in front of him.
He glared at Fu Su and said,"
"Are you interrogating me like I'm a criminal?”
"Zhen, is your Imperial Father!"
"Fusu, you better show your attitude!”
Seeing this, Fu Su bowed and cupped his hands again to show that he was careless just now.
I will change, but I will definitely do it again.
"So, Father, what exactly are the contents of the two decrees you issued?”
"You, you unfilial son!" Ying Zheng was so angry that the twelve tassels on his head kept clashing against each other, producing a crisp sound.
"To think that I really believed that you had some self-reflection in the Heaven Prison.”
"I thought you could really understand my good intentions in the past.”
"In the end, once you leave the imperial prison and return to the palace.”
"Just to contradict and anger me?”
"Oh? How did Imperial Father know that your son was reflecting on himself in the Heaven Prison?”Fu Su ignored his father's exasperation.
Instead, she caught the information that was accidentally revealed in his words.
"You still say that you haven't received the bamboo slips that your son ordered someone to present in prison?”
"Those two decrees must have used the two strategies in the bamboo slips to plan for Great Qin, right?”
"Definitely! Otherwise, why would the officials have such a big reaction?”
"He used the move of kneeling outside Zhangtai Palace to force Imperial Father to retract his order!？”
"Moreover, you didn't tell the courtiers that the two decrees were issued by your son, right?”
"Otherwise, that old man Chunyu Yue wouldn't have gone to the imperial prison and asked your son to come out of prison to advise Imperial Father!”
"Imperial Father, you actually stole something from your own son?”
"Your son never thought that you would be such a person!”
Faced with Fu Su's hoarse accusations.
On the surface, Ying Zheng's face was dark and gloomy, but in fact, he was already bursting with laughter inside.
Haha, that's true.
It was really interesting to see Fu Su, this unfilial son, flustered and exasperated!
This unfilial son has angered me so many times before.
Now, he finally has the chance to experience how I felt in the past.
He had to cherish this hard-earned opportunity!
"Hmph, I don't know what you're talking about.”Ying Zheng snorted coldly.
"You, Imperial Father, you still refuse to admit it?”Fu Su was so angry that his entire body trembled.
"What do I admit? Why should I admit to something I didn't do?”
"You said that I stole two of your plans for Great Qin.”
"Do you have any evidence?"
"In addition, I would like to ask you, how did you come up with these two plans?”
"Don't tell me that I was bored in the prison and thought of such nonsense. I'm not someone you can fool.”
......
He listened to his father's question.
Fu Su was speechless for a moment.
How did he come up with those two plans?
What was there to think about? He had heard it directly from his teacher!
But Fu Su didn't dare to tell his father about Jiang Chen's existence.
This was because, according to Fu Su's past understanding of his father.
The First Emperor of Great Qin hated Confucian scholars.
On the one hand, those Confucian scholars were constantly chattering in his father's ears, saying that they should let the Confucians teach the Emperor what etiquette was and what rules were.
Ying Zheng was a man of great talent and great strategy. He had fought hard for six generations and made great efforts to govern the territory.
He swept across the six countries and unified the world.
He was a person who believed that his achievements surpassed the Three Royals and Five Emperors, so he gave himself the title of Emperor.
Would they need those who only knew that something was wrong here and there?
However, he couldn't come up with a solution, and if he did, it would be the untimely Confucian scholar who taught him how to do things.
In addition, he had been bewitched by Chunyu Yue and the other Confucians to oppose his father.
All sorts of reasons were added together.
This caused his father to feel extreme disgust towards the scholars.
And this, in fact, was exactly what Ying Zheng thought about the Confucian scholars.
However, what Fu Su did not expect was…
In fact, Ying Zheng had already known about Jiang Chen's existence.
He was indeed very unhappy with the scholarly officials.
But Jiang Chen wasn't one of them.
Because he had seen Jiang Chen's extraordinary talent in the prison.
He had heard many shocking words from Jiang Chen.
Ying Zheng even thought that Jiang Chen was born with knowledge.
He planned to ask him about the whereabouts of the immortals so that he could find Changsheng.
Comparing Chunyu Yue and the other Confucians with Jiang Chen?
It was like a grain of rice competing with the scorching sun!
In fact, it was already too much of a compliment to say that it was a grain of rice.
......
So the current situation was…
Fu Su thought that his Imperial Father did not know and did not dare to let him know of his teacher's existence.
He was afraid that this would bring disaster to his teacher.
Ying Zheng actually knew, but he pretended not to know.
Between the father and son, an old fox and a little fox were scheming against each other.
Unfortunately, no one else knew about this.
A good show was really too wasteful.
"Say something. Weren't you very talkative just now? Hurry up and answer my question!" Ying Zheng urged Fu Su when he saw that Fu Su was struggling to speak.
"I, your son, your son!"
"You what? Tell me!"
"Could it be that those two decrees are simply non-existent, or that you stole them from someone else?”
Ying Zheng pressed forward step by step. Looking at Fu Su's sullen face, he felt quite comfortable.
However, his last sentence made Fu Su suspicious.
He raised his head and looked at his father, who was kneeling on the throne.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong.
"Father, do you know something?”
"What do I know? If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hide it here.”Ying Zheng snapped, flicking his sleeves.
Fu Su:
But it didn't seem like he knew the inside story.
Could it be that Imperial Father is pretending with me?
Hmm? Could it be that Meng Yi had secretly reported the situation in the imperial prison to Imperial Father?
It shouldn't be possible. He had been secretly watching Meng Yi.
Ever since he entered the imperial prison, he had no chance to report the situation to the higher-ups.
"Stunned again? Fu Su, do you still have this Imperial Father in your eyes? What?" Ying Zheng was addicted to acting.
Fu Su looked at his furious expression and felt really helpless.
He bowed and cupped his hands.
"Imperial Father, let's not dwell on these trivial matters. Let's talk about more pressing matters.”
"Your son will not ask where your two decrees came from.”
"Your son will ask, is one to use Great Qin's official position to subdue the six countries 'nobles, and the other to implement the method of passing the examination?”
Seeing that Fu Su had stopped playing, Ying Zheng frowned slightly.
He felt a little disappointed.
He did not hide Fu Su's question.
After all, even if he didn't give him an answer, he would still be able to do it.
If he went out to ask others, he would also be able to obtain it.
Ying Zheng nodded slightly.
"That's right, it's these two."
Hearing this, Fu Su gritted his teeth.
He cursed in his heart. Father, you shameless old man, you still said that you didn't use the strategy in the bamboo scroll I presented?
But even if Fu Su knew, there was nothing he could do.
After all, if his father refused to admit it, what could he do to him?
Sighing lightly, he cupped his hands and said,
"Then I'm sure Father knows why the imperial clan and officials strongly opposed your two decrees and even knelt outside Zhangtai Palace to force you to take back your orders.”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng threw a glance at Fu Su.
"Nonsense, didn't I already say it before?”
"They think that the two decrees I issued will cause their interests to suffer losses!”
Fu Su: Why did you plagiarize the plan in my bamboo slip?
And now, you're still treating me with such a bad attitude?
In fact, my attitude is even worse than when I was bewitched by Chunyu Yue and the other Confucians to contradict you!
No matter how hard Fu Su racked his brain, he could never imagine that his father, who was usually extremely dignified, would be so powerful.
He actually wanted to take revenge for what he had done in the past!
It could only be said that it was difficult to paint a tiger's skin but not its bones. One could only know a person's face but not his heart.
One should never judge a person by their appearance.
Because people could disguise themselves, and you would never be able to guess their true thoughts.
Who would have thought that the First Emperor of Great Qin, who had swept through the six countries and unified the world, would be so powerful?
At this moment, he was actually thinking like a naughty child?
The baby felt bitter in his heart and sighed again.
"That's right, it's just as you said, Imperial Father.”
"Your two decrees are very good for Great Qin.”
"But to those imperial clan members and officials, it will harm their interests.”
"Although you have forcefully suppressed their opposition now.”
"But it can't stop them from resenting you.”
"If this continues, your son will be at a disadvantage for Great Qin's future.”
Hearing Fu Su's words, Ying Zheng, who was standing on the steps of the palace, frowned even more deeply.
"Resentment towards me? Is it detrimental to Great Qin's future?"
"So, you mean that I should retract my order and let them kneel outside the palace to force the abdication to succeed?”
As he said that, anger and disappointment appeared in Ying Zheng's eyes.
He had thought that his eldest son had finally grown up.
In the end, he did not expect it. He had thought too much!
However, Fu Su's next reply was…
It also proved that Ying Zheng was indeed overthinking.
"Your son did not have such intentions." Fu Su shook his head.
"These two decrees are imperative for Great Qin!”
"Therefore, your son will not persuade Imperial Father to retract his orders, and will not let Imperial Father succumb to the imperial clan and courtiers.”
"Your son's intention is to help Imperial Father resolve the opposition of the imperial clan and courtiers so that they will no longer obstruct the issuing of the two decrees.”
Hearing this, Ying Zheng, who was standing on top of the palace steps, was stunned.
Did I blame Fusu wrongly?
But the problem was, how could he resolve the opposition of the imperial clan and courtiers?
Could it be his teacher Jiang Chen's idea?
But that's not right. I saw it with my own eyes in the prison.
Jiang Chen didn't know about this at all!
"I would like to know what method you have to resolve the opposition of the imperial clan and officials.”Ying Zheng looked at Fu Su with great interest.
"Tell me."
A meaningful smile appeared on Fu Su's face." Your son's solution is…"
