"Eighth brother."
Fu Su walked over to greet him, looking very friendly.
Looking at the gentlemanly Fu Su in front of him, Ying Wushuang's eyes were calm as she said,"
"Elder brother."
He wasn't too close to Fu Su. Perhaps it was because of his personality, but Fu Su treated all his brothers equally.
"It has been three years since we last met.”said Fu Su.
"Yes." Ying Wushuang nodded.
"Greetings, Young Master!"
Li Si and the other officials bowed.
"No need for formalities." said Fu Su.
"Wushuang, have you heard any rumors about Xianyang these three days?”Fu Su asked.
"Brother, are you talking about the assassination of His Majesty?”Ying Wushuang said.
These three days, Xianyang was not peaceful.
News of the assassination attempt on the First Emperor in the Wushuang Restaurant had spread to all the forces, so Ying Wushuang had also caught the attention of many forces.
However, under the malicious spread of malicious people, the assassination of the First Emperor had already been spread. In the end, it was directly said that the Eighth Prince, Ying Wushuang, wanted to rebel, which was why this incident happened.
This matter could be big or small!
Ultimately, the First Emperor's attitude would be decided.
"Eighth brother, be careful." Fu Su reminded.
"Thank you, brother." Ying Wushuang said.
If it wasn't for the fight for the throne, Fu Su would indeed be a gentleman worthy of deep friendship.
If he was in a prosperous era, he would definitely be a wise ruler.
It was a pity that Great Qin did not need such a wise ruler.
As for Fu Su's final outcome, it was also a pity.
It could be said that the First Emperor had already left a path of retreat for Fu Su, banishing him away from the court and avoiding killing intent.
This was to protect him. Staying at the border with Meng Tian was actually giving him military power.
However, this brother was really too stupid. He respected the First Emperor as if he was a god!
A forged imperial edict had taken his life.
In truth, with Great Qin's strength, even after the First Emperor passed away, the Great Qin Empire was still in a state of chaos.
Even with the uprising of the Xiang Clan and the remnants of the Six Nations, it would not be able to disintegrate this dynasty so quickly.
Actually, there was another very important reason, and that was that Huhai did not get the position properly.
Moreover, Huhai and Zhao Gao, who were only eunuchs, could not mobilize Great Qin's army because they did not have any authority.
Great Qin's army would only listen to the First Emperor's orders.
This was also the fatal reason why Great Qin was quickly destroyed.
Fu Su noticed Ying Wushuang's gaze. Why did he feel that his Eighth Brother was looking at him strangely?
It was as if he was the one who was trapped in the whirlpool.
After that, Zhao Gao also arrived.
Ying Wushuang and Zhao Gao looked at each other across the air. Everything was said without a word.
Zhao Gao looked calm on the surface, but he was surprised on the inside.
After three years, he could no longer see through Great Qin's Eighth Prince.
"Ministers, enter the hall."
The eunuch opened the gate of Xianyang Palace and shouted.
At the same time, all the officials entered the palace.
The entire Xianyang Palace was black in color, with thirty-two coiling dragon patterns on both sides. It looked mighty and domineering.
At this moment, the First Emperor was standing in front of the Dragon Emperor. He was dressed in a black imperial robe and had the Tianwen Sword at his waist. His gaze was stern and dignified.
All the officials bowed, their faces filled with reverence.
"No need for formalities."
As the First Emperor spoke, everyone dared to straighten their backs slightly.
Because of his status as a prince, Ying Wushuang and Fu Su stood together, while the officials stood to one side.
As the court meeting began, Ying Zheng's gaze stopped on Ying Wushuang for a moment and said,"
"Ministers, do you have anything to report?"
When Li Si heard that, he walked out and said,"
"Your Majesty, I have something to report."
"Speak." Ying Zheng said.
"As the saying goes, a country cannot live without a ruler. Your Majesty, you are the Emperor of the Great Qin Dynasty, and you are awe-inspiring.
For example, the Great Tang, Great Song, Great Ming, and other dynasties had already established themselves as the Crown Princes.
Your Majesty, isn't it time for Great Qin to establish a new ruler?
Only by establishing the heir to the throne would Great Qin have a successor and be able to last for thousands of years.”Li Si said.
As soon as he said this, all the ministers turned pale.
Once the crown prince was established, the structure of the Great Qin Dynasty Hall would probably change.
Fu Su was the eldest son of the Great Qin Empire, and he was wise and benevolent, so he had a high chance of becoming the Crown Prince.
At this moment, Fu Su maintained a calm expression on the surface, but he was still looking forward to it.
If he became the Crown Prince, he would not disappoint Great Qin.
"Li Si, in your opinion, who is most suitable to be the Crown Prince among my many sons?”Ying Zheng asked.
"The eldest son, Fusu, is wise and benevolent. He has inherited the teachings of Confucianism and is a candidate for the crown prince.”Li Si said.
Ying Zheng's expression remained unchanged, and he did not say anything. However, Fu Su could not help but clench his fists.
Ying Wushuang saw this and quietly waited for the rest.
Based on his understanding of Li Si, there would probably be a reversal later.
This was because Li Si was essentially a speculator, and a very lucky one at that.
Of course, he was also a student of the great Confucian scholar Xun Zi.
Back then, he had joined Lu Buwei's army as a fledgling, and later on, he had bet that he had not yet become the King of Qin, Ying Zheng.
He had won, so he had become Great Qin's Prime Minister and one of the most powerful people in Great Qin.
However, all of this was given by the First Emperor. Once the First Emperor was gone, this power would also disappear.
The new king would definitely clean up the civil and military officials and clean up the government.
Although Fu Su was gentle and benevolent, he was not easy to control.
Li Si was a smart person. In order to continue having power, he would not support Fusu.
As expected, Li Si's next words dampened Fu Su's excitement."
"Eighteenth Prince Huhai is talented, intelligent, and studious. He has the true teachings of Legalism and is a good candidate for the Crown Prince.”
“!”Fu Su looked at Li Si in disbelief.
Seeing this, Zhao Gao's long and narrow mouth revealed a faint smile.
"Heh." Ying Wushuang almost laughed out loud when he heard this.
Huhai was the youngest among all the princes. If it wasn't for Zhao Gao controlling him, he would be even more ignorant and incompetent than him.
Furthermore, he was quick and studious, he had obtained the true teachings of Legalism.
Did Li Si's conscience not hurt when he lied like this?
"Is this what you really think?" Ying Zheng looked straight at Li Si.
"Yes, Your Majesty." Li Si looked at her calmly.
Ying Zheng did not show any special expression, but he was still disappointed.
Back when Li Si had followed him, he had been full of vigor and had made great contributions to Great Qin. Now, he had long forgotten his original intentions.
However, he did not say anything; Great Qin still needed Li Si.
"My dear ministers, what do you think?”Ying Zheng asked.
"Lord Li is right!"
"Prime Minister Li is right!"
"Second!"
The ministers said.
There were also some ministers who remained neutral and did not speak.
"Let's not talk about the Crown Prince for now. Wushuang, the rumors about my assassination in three days say that you are the mastermind. Did you know?"
Ying Zheng changed the topic and turned his gaze to Ying Wushuang.
Ying Wushuang was speechless.
Do you not know the truth behind the assassination three days ago?
However, the rumors stopped with the wise!
The First Emperor asked this question to test him.
It was also to give the officials an answer.
Similarly, Ying Wushuang's answer would directly affect his position in the First Emperor's heart.
If he couldn't even settle a small rumor, how could he participate in the battle for the throne?
At this moment, Fu Su took a step forward.
