"It's just a stone!"
Zhao Tian smiled faintly.
"Regardless of what this stone is like, just based on the words on it, Imperial Father, your son thinks that the words of outsiders are just a joke.”
"'The First Emperor died and the land was divided.' Outsiders widely spread that this was your tyranny, causing the world to perish.”
"This stone only tells us that if you die, the world will very likely show signs of falling apart.”
"But why?"
Zhao Tian's eloquence attracted the First Emperor's attention.
"Now, although the world is stable, there are too many unstable factors. The Xiongnu in the north, the Baiyue in the south, the six internal states, and the people living in poverty due to the long years of war are all factors that will cause the world to fall apart.”
"Actually, Father, in my opinion, this stone is a gift from the heavens to you. It's a warning to Father that you have to speed up and solve these problems.”
"Moreover, taking ten thousand steps back, as long as Imperial Father doesn't die, won't this problem disappear? Father, you are awe-inspiring in the world. Who dares to touch you?”
Zhao Tian waved his hand and said in high spirits.
Even the First Emperor's heart was surging with excitement.
"Good! My son's words are exactly what I want!"
Zhao Tian looked at the First Emperor and pondered.
There was still a part of the matter that Zhao Tian did not say.
Naturally, the Qin Dynasty could not perish in two generations.
Otherwise, there was no point in him being a prince.
The best way to prevent the second emperor from dying was to let the first emperor live.
Only then would the restless elements in the world not dare to move.
The most pressing problem at the moment was the so-called longevity medicine and Zhao Gao.
However, Zhao Tian knew very well that the First Emperor was obsessed with longevity. If he directly mentioned the bad things about the longevity medicine and Xu Fu, he would probably lose everything.
A plan suddenly appeared in Zhao Tian's mind.
"Tian 'er, your performance this time was not bad. This Emperor is very clear about rewards and punishments.”
The First Emperor's voice suddenly rang out.
Before Zhao Tian could reply, the system notification sounded in his mind.
Ding! Activate selection!
[Option 1: You want a piece of land and live in a corner as a king. Reward: fertile land and gold.]
[Option 2: Ask the First Emperor for the position of Crown Prince and save Great Qin from its decline. Reward: Cultivation Realm Pill and Body Refining Pill.]
This time, the system only gave him two.
However, after hearing this, Zhao Tian was slightly stunned.
He was a little shocked. He didn't expect the system to be so good at playing.
Asking for the position of Crown Prince?
One had to know that although Fu Su was the eldest son now, the true position of Crown Prince had not been established. In fact, in history, it had not even been established until the death of the First Emperor.
This was also the reason why Zhao Gao and Huhai had seized the opportunity after the First Emperor's death.
It wasn't that the civil and military officials hadn't mentioned it before.
However, he did not know what the First Emperor was thinking.
He had never been able to confirm it.
"Perhaps it's because his sons are too disappointing. The First Emperor doesn't have the confidence to hand over the world to them.”
With this thought in mind, Zhao Tian immediately took a step forward.
"Imperial Father, it is your son's duty to help Imperial Father solve his problems. I shouldn't ask for any benefits, but since Imperial Father has already spoken, your son dares to ask for something.”
Zhao Tian straightened his back and looked straight at the First Emperor.
The First Emperor, who was sitting beside the table, was interested.
For some reason, looking at Zhao Tian's tall and straight figure, the First Emperor felt an inexplicable emotion surging in his heart.
"Oh? Just say it."
"I want Imperial Father's undecided position as Crown Prince!”
Zhao Tian said directly.
The First Emperor frowned. When he looked at Zhao Tian, his eyes flashed.
Zhao Gao, who was standing at the side, was greatly shocked when he heard this.
He looked at Zhao Tian in disbelief.
In his opinion, this Zhao Tian was simply a lunatic.
However, looking back at Qin Shihuang, the First Emperor's expression made Zhao Gao feel even more uneasy.
Once Zhao Tian's current performance made the First Emperor waver, the First Emperor's heart would be shaken.
Wouldn't Huhai's position be in danger?
"How dare you! Thirteenth Young Master, do you know what nonsense you are spouting? Hurry up and apologize to His Majesty!"
Zhao Gao scolded subconsciously.
However, what Zhao Gao did not expect was that Zhao Tian suddenly glared at him.
The moment his eyes met Zhao Tian's, Zhao Gao's heart skipped a beat, and he felt a sense of unease.
Zhao Tian strode up to Zhao Gao.
" Thirteenth Young Master, you…Ah!"
"You…you hit me?"
Before Zhao Gao could finish speaking, Zhao Tian raised his hand and slapped him hard on the face.
A crisp sound rang out in the study.
"I'm the Great Qin's 13th Young Master, and I'm discussing family matters with my Imperial Father. What right do you, a lowly eunuch, have to interrupt?”
"Even Imperial Father hasn't expressed his stance yet, but you're jumping out impatiently?”
"Are you trying to reprimand me on behalf of Imperial Father? What qualifications do you have to work for Imperial Father? Or do you want to sit in Imperial Father's position?”
"I want to ask you, what are your intentions?”
As he said that, Zhao Tian raised his palm again and slapped him a few times.
Zhao Gao's face was swollen like a pig's head.
