In the eighteenth prince's manor, Huhai sat on a high chair. He looked at the secret letter in his hand with a worried look in his eyes. Then, he casually threw the letter into the brazier in front of him.
" Teacher…How could I not know how my uncle would cause a huge commotion after he easily wiped out the Mo Family…"
" But what can we do…Even if we've been planning for ten years…Now that Father has achieved immortality, who else can control this world…"
Huhai sighed. He stood up and looked at the sky above Xianyang. His face showed a hint of unwillingness.
In order to fight for the throne, he had been preparing for it ever since he took Zhao Gao as his teacher. Now, the net was in his hands.
In the court, almost a third of the three dukes and nine ministers were his men!
But now, what was the use?
In the past, before the First Emperor made him the Crown Prince, he had always wanted to find an opportunity to make the First Emperor make him the Crown Prince.
However, ever since his eldest uncle returned to Qin ten days ago, everything had changed!
His father had become younger, and he did not hide the fact that he had obtained immortality!
How could an emperor who had obtained immortality give up his power and establish a crown prince for the empire?!
Could it be that he wanted the prince to become the crown prince, and then the crown prince would live for seventy years before dying in front of the young and strong First Emperor?
Huhai smiled bitterly at the thought of such a scene. He had been depressed for the past few days. He hadn't done anything since his uncle came back.
However, he had been robbed of everything silently!
The courtiers who had tried to get close to him in the past had now kept their distance from him. Only a few chess pieces were still loyal to him.
As for him, he was the heir of the empire and the most favored son of the First Emperor. The only person he could command was Zhao Gao's network.
Why didn't Huhai feel a sense of disappointment?!
But resistance?
Huhai had this thought before, but he abandoned it soon after. Being in the center of the empire, he knew all too well how powerful his father was.
Originally, he only wanted to seize the power of the empire when his father passed away!
Fighting for the power of the empire with Ying Zheng, who was at his prime?
The fate of the Six Nations was still vivid in his mind!
But how could he live his life like this?
Huhai couldn't accept it either. He had been chasing after power ever since he was a child, and after he became Zhao Gao's disciple, he learned how to endure.
That was why he could rely on the First Emperor's favor to be unruly in the eyes of the courtiers and use all kinds of methods to win over the civil and military officials.
He had already enjoyed the feeling of power. If he were to give it up again…
"This prince is unwilling!" Huhai's eyes were filled with anger and dissatisfaction. Why did his uncle want to belong to Qin?
He was supposed to be the new master of this huge empire!
After these thoughts lingered in Huhai's mind for a long time, he sighed and suppressed his emotions. Then, he asked the servants to prepare the carriage.
Since his eldest uncle had already wiped out the Mo Family, then the benefits that should be divided must not be left out.
Zhao Gao's secret letter not only conveyed the information that Ying Xin had destroyed the Mo Family, but it also marked out the various strongholds of the Mo Family.
Huhai had done this more than once.
The gold, jewelry, weapons, and machine-operated beasts that the Mo family had hidden in secret were all good things. Who didn't like money?
Under the current circumstances, Huhai needed money more than usual to win over the hearts of the people.
Moreover, he was certain that his uncle would not care about this matter.
After all, he was the heir of the Great Qin Empire, so what if he secretly embezzled some gold and silver?
The next day, Huhai secretly colluded with his henchmen and began to clean up the secret strongholds of the Mohist clan. The military report that Ying Xin had destroyed the Mohist City of Traps also arrived in Xianyang.
Inside the Qin Palace, Ying Zheng was reading the battle report in his hands, smiling with a delighted expression.
"As expected of brother, you settled the Mo family's rebels with one move!”
"Zhang Han, tell me, how high is brother's martial arts? I've never seen brother use his full strength.”
"Your Majesty, I don't know either, but the Marquis Champion's martial arts are so high that it's rare. I'm afraid that only the legendary Daoist masters can barely compare to him.”Zhang Han said respectfully.
However, Ying Zheng only snorted coldly in disdain when he heard those words.
"Taoism?"
"Do these Daoists who practice so-called inaction deserve to stand shoulder to shoulder with my brother?”
"When I wanted to unify the written language, the Daoist Tianzong entered the Qin royal palace at night in an attempt to persuade me. If Ge Nie had not been by my side, those hypocritical villains would have assassinated the king.”
Hearing this, Zhang Han was stunned. He had not expected that Ying Zheng would encounter such a thing in the Qin Palace!
It must be known that there were no less than five thousand armored soldiers protecting the palace day and night!
Not to mention the entire Xianyang!
At the mention of Ge Nia, Ying Zheng's eyes revealed a hint of sigh and reminiscence. He looked at the sky in the distance. His brother had exterminated the rebels of the Mo Family and captured Ge Nia.
He could only hope that that fellow would not always be so blockheaded.
As the Emperor, there were some things that he couldn't say. He could only see if Ge Nia understood.
Ying Zheng's sword of the Son of Heaven had never changed!
At the same time, while Ying Zheng was reminiscing about the past, in the camp of a hundred thousand Qin soldiers near the Mohist City of Traps.
In the commander's tent, Yueshen's hands were tied behind her back. Her entire body was suspended in the air by a few white ribbons, and only her toes could touch the ground.
She was like a half-arched shrimp, wearing a purple dress.
Her eyes were filled with fear, and her mouth was stuffed with a cloth to prevent her from attempting to bite her tongue to commit suicide.
Two days ago, when she was just captured, Yueshen had this intention, so Ying Xin stuffed a piece of white cloth into her mouth.
After being tortured by the Life-Death Notes for three days and two nights, the Moon Goddess was already a little dazed. There was only fear left in her eyes!
Great Si Ming stood at the side, his face showing that he couldn't bear it.
Ying Xin, who had been sitting on the high chair, said indifferently at this moment.
"Yueshen, I'm not a patient person. I'll ask you one last time, do you want to suffer this pain day and night, or do you want to surrender to me?”
The Moon Goddess's eyes were filled with numbness and fear. After hearing Ying Xin's words, she tilted her head…
The pain in his limbs and bones was like a knife that was constantly spreading.
The pain was getting stronger by the day!
There was no way to kill himself!
It was as if the only thing in his life was to endure stronger and stronger punishments!
Hearing Ying Xin's words, the Moon Goddess felt as if a string in her heart had snapped!
Tears flowed crazily from her eyes as she sobbed.
"Lord Marquis, I'm willing to surrender, I'm willing to surrender!”
