In the imperial court, everyone had ecstatic expressions on their faces as they congratulated Fu Su's victory in unison.
However, not everyone was sincere.
It was typical.
For example…
Zhao Gao.
Although he was smiling and congratulating her, his eyes were getting colder and colder.
It was just that his acting skills had been cultivated to the extreme, and outsiders could not tell at all.
Fu Su was the eldest son. According to the tradition inherited by the eldest son of Old Qin, he was originally the first candidate to be the Crown Prince.
It was just that Fu Su had sought his own death. The Ancestral Dragon had asked him to study Confucianism, but in the end, he had become a Confucianist, indecisive, indecisive, and merciful. Every day, he had been complaining about how cruel Ying Zheng's decrees were, which had almost angered Ying Zheng half to death.
However, as expected of Ying Zheng's son, Fu Su inherited Ying Zheng's stubbornness.
No matter how much Ying Zheng scolded him, Fu Su still did as he pleased.
No matter how Zhao Gao tried to express his goodwill, Fu Su did not care about Zhao Gao at all. He was just short of pointing at Zhao Gao's nose and scolding him as a thief who brought disaster to the country and the people.
Zhao Gao had no choice but to give up on Fu Su and support the weaker and more obedient Huhai.
However, Huhai was too useless.
Except for his sweet mouth, and under the guidance of Zhao Gao, he showed his filial piety in front of Ying Zheng all day long, which was praised by Ying Zheng, his other abilities were really ordinary.
Zhao Gao had tried his best to get Ying Zheng to arrange for Li Si to be Huhai's teacher.
In the end, a few days later, Huhai successfully angered Li Si and secretly cursed him.
However, due to Ying Zheng's authority, Li Si still had to attend Huhai's lessons on time, and he had to deal with them.
Not to mention Ying Zheng, who was a man of great talent and great strategy and had seen countless people.
Even Zhao Gao himself felt that Huhai was definitely a bad ruler.
However, Fu Su had been courting death even more. He would fight head-on with Ying Zheng at every turn, and was directly sent to the border by Ying Zheng.
Everyone knew that Xianyang was the center of Great Qin.
After leaving Xianyang, and leaving Ying Zheng, the first emperor of Great Qin, Fusu was basically half-crippled.
Zhao Gao only needed to stall for time, to prevent Ying Zheng from confirming Fu Su as the Crown Prince in advance.
When the Ancestral Dragon passed away, it would be too late even if he suddenly thought of Fu Su's kindness.
When Ying Zheng was still alive, his prestige had shocked the whole world, and even Zhao Gao did not dare to act rashly. The remnants of the six dynasties only dared to make some remarks that the Ancestral Dragon's life was not long, but did not dare to take any real action.
However, with Ying Zheng's death, no one would be able to control Great Qin anymore.
As the Head of the Bureau, Zhao Gao, who was close to the emperor, had a lot to do.
Even if Ying Zheng had ordered Fu Su to succeed the throne.
However, even if it was a thousand miles away, the will had to reach Shangjun.
Zhao Gao had already bribed many of Ying Zheng's personal guards, and was prepared to take action when the time came.
As for Li Si, with his power-hungry personality and the fact that he was Huhai's teacher in name, there was no need to worry about Li Si not giving in when the time came.
If he dared to have any objections, he would just kill him.
As for Huhai, he was just a coward. Even if he ascended the throne, he would still be at his mercy.
Initially, all of this was carried out very smoothly, and Zhao Gao was also very satisfied.
To be honest, he did not like Fu Su even after a long time.
Unexpectedly, Fu Su, who was originally thought to be hopeless, suddenly soared as if he had the help of God.
He had directly created an unprecedented legend, so powerful that no one could say anything.
With Fu Su's heaven-defying contributions, it was imaginable that Ying Zheng would let Fu Su return to Xianyang with honor, and there was a high possibility that he would be conferred the title of Crown Prince.
Zhao Gao couldn't find a reason to refuse.
He was the first in line to inherit the throne, alright?
Even if there was a small mistake before, it was just a conflict between father and son. As long as Ying Zheng did not care about it, no one else would dare to interfere.
Brazenly interfering with the candidate for the position of heir was definitely a death sentence.
Zhao Gao's heart was burning, but there was nothing he could do.
She wanted to say that Fu Su's battle results were too fake, but she did not dare to say it out loud.
They had already said that they had captured the enemy leader alive and captured more than 100,000 people.
If he dared to say that, he definitely had the confidence.
With such a great contribution, the spoils of war had to be brought back to Xianyang. It could not be faked.
It was impossible for Fu Su to make such a mistake.
Tell such a big lie.
Even if Fu Su knew it, Meng Tian wouldn't.
" Edict: Internal history Meng Tian, assist Young Master Fusu to wipe out 90,000 enemies, capture 100,000 enemies, and capture the enemy leader Touman alive.
I'll be promoted to general and conferred the title of Valiant Martial Marquis!"
Whoosh!
Ying Zheng rewarded him.
The court was in an uproar again!
This reward…
Wasn't this too generous?
Valiant Martial Manor was a true marquis, and Great Qin's rank 20 military merit system was the best!
In the entire Great Qin, the only person who was still alive and relying on his own contributions, not the Marquis Che that his ancestors had inherited, was the 70-year-old Grand Commandant Wang Jian!
Moreover, it was clearly stated in Ying Zheng's decree that Meng Tian was assisting Fu Su in this meritorious service.
The assistant can be promoted to the rank of Che Hou.
Although Meng Tian had made outstanding contributions, the reward of a general was definitely higher than that of a deputy general. This was an unchanging truth in the military.
Fu Su had the status of a Young Master and was even higher than Young Master.
Everyone's eyes could not help but reveal a trace of shock.
That was the only spot left!
Especially after waiting for a long time, he still did not hear Ying Zheng rewarding Fu Su.
He would have to wait until he returned to Xianyang to make a decision.
The only position that needed Fu Su to return to Xianyang to announce was that position.
The long-awaited battle for the throne was about to fall.
Many of the neutral ministers, such as Dun Ruo, heaved a sigh of relief.
A country without a crown prince, especially when the emperor was not feeling well, had always been a taboo.
It was just that the eighteen young masters from before were too much of a scam.
Now, there was finally a young master who stood out.
Moreover, he was the eldest son, which was the most suitable for the eldest son of Great Qin.
This group of people instantly became Fu Su's staunch supporters.
They were the most loyal people to Great Qin.
Fu Su was thousands of miles away, but he had an unexpected huge harvest.
"By the way, with such a great victory, Fu Su and Meng Tian should have returned!”
Ying Zheng chuckled." Did the letter say when we will arrive at Xianyang? I will personally lead all the civil and military officials out of the city to welcome you!"”
All the officials were shocked once again.
It was a supreme honor for the emperor to personally come out of the city to welcome them.
However, when they thought of Fu Su's great contribution, especially when they looked at the excited Ying Zheng, the words that had reached their throats were swallowed back.
Wasn't this courting death?
Did he really think that Ying Zheng had put down his butcher knife after not killing his courtiers for a long time?
This was not the way to play.
However, the next moment, everyone was stunned again.
"Your Majesty, Young Master Fusu said that he wants to set up an ambush in the Xiongnu Royal Court and wait for the Xiongnu reinforcements to arrive before destroying the entire Xiongnu!”
"What he wants is true extermination!”
