Just as Ying Chang 'an was having a great time with Yao Mei' er in the Grand View Garden, the imperial edict issued by Ying Zheng was also spreading like wildfire in Xianyang City.
His Majesty had decreed that the Eldest Young Master Fusu would leave the capital in three days and head to Jiuyuan to help General Meng Tian defend against the Xiongnu.
Whether it was the dignitaries, the peddlers, or the commoners, after hearing the news, they were all in an uproar.
Great Qin unified the six countries, and Fusu grew day by day and began to listen to government affairs.
For a long time, the Eldest Young Master would become the successor of the Great Qin Empire, and this was a fact that had been silently acknowledged.
No matter who it was, they all felt that this was a natural thing to do.
However, the imperial edict issued by Ying Zheng was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, instantly setting off a raging storm.
Some people were shocked, while others found it unbelievable.
After all, Eldest Young Master Fu Su was an honest, humble, and polite person, and his reputation in Xianyang City and even the entire Great Qin Empire spread far and wide.
In the eyes of anyone, Fu Su was a qualified successor.
Many people couldn't figure it out.
Why did His Majesty suddenly make such a decision?
Of course.
When Fu Su was chased out of the capital, many people secretly celebrated and even cheered.
These people were all descendants of the nobles of the six dynasties.
For example, Zhang Liang, who was currently in the capital, preparing to assassinate Ying Zheng.
When he heard the news, he laughed out loud.
"Hahaha, that's great. The heavens are really helping me.”
Uncle Xiang looked at Zhang Liang with a complicated expression and asked,""Brother Zhang Liang, what does Fu Su leaving the capital have to do with us? Why are you so happy?"
"Brother Xiang Bo, aren't you being too shallow?"
Zhang Liang glanced at Uncle Xiang with a sense of superiority and said leisurely,""Fusu is the most talented person among the princes of Ying Zheng, and also the person who poses the greatest threat to our future overthrow of the tyranny.”
"He is equivalent to the heir to the throne of the Great Qin Empire. The tyrant Ying Zheng is getting older and older. If he wants his eldest son to leave the capital at this time, it means that there is an irreconcilable conflict between the two of them.”
"In other words, Great Qin has split up internally, which will definitely be a source of disaster in the future.”
"A hundred years after Ying Zheng, among all the princes, except for Fu Su, no one could take care of the situation.”
"As long as we plan properly, Great Qin will fall apart. Isn't this worth celebrating?”
After hearing Zhang Liang's words, Uncle Xiang also came to a realization. He gave him a thumbs up and praised,"Listening to your words is better than reading ten years of books.”
Zhang Liang raised his head and enjoyed Uncle Xiang's praise. He was overjoyed.
"However, I think that Prince Nineteen has some talent.”
After praising Zhang Liang, a porcelain doll suddenly appeared in Uncle Xiang's mind. He couldn't help but frown.
He had a feeling that the little kid was not simple.
Zhang Liang smiled disdainfully and said lightly,"What kind of storm can a little kid cause?" Don't worry about him."
"Right, I've already asked around. In a few days, the tyrant will go out of the city to hunt. When he returns to Xianyang City, the tyrant will accept the kowtow of the entire city's people.”
"That will be the best time for us to assassinate him.”
"Brother Xiang Bo, have you found a suitable candidate?”
Uncle Xiang shook his head awkwardly." No, the people I chose were at most at the Connate Realm. They were far inferior in both temperament and strength.”
"If it really doesn't work, I can only do it myself.”
Hearing this, Zhang Liang was overjoyed. He put his hand on Uncle Xiang's shoulder and said,""Brother Xiang Bo, it would be best if you could do it yourself.”
"You have the strength of a grandmaster. It's easy for you to assassinate a tyrant at close range.”
Uncle Xiang rolled his eyes at Zhang Liang and curled his lips."You brat, when you first brought me to Xianyang, did you already plan this?”
Zhang Liang scratched his head and smiled awkwardly.""What? Hehe, how could that be? How could I cheat my friends?"
"You? In the future, I'll thank the heavens if you leave my corpse intact.”
Uncle Xiang didn't care about this and joked casually.
After all, their Chu Country's Xiang Clan had an irreconcilable enmity with Great Qin.
He was obliged to assassinate the tyrant.
……
The night was silent.
In the Eldest Young Master's Residence of Xianyang Palace, Fu Su stood alone in the courtyard, looking a little lonely.
"Did Imperial Father and I still end up like this?”
He raised his head and looked at the stars in the sky. Two lines of tears flowed down unconsciously.
"Eldest Young Master, don't be discouraged. His Majesty might just be tempering your temperament.”
A young man with a determined expression stood beside Fu Su.
"Meng Yi, there's no need to comfort me. I'm not a fool.”
Fu Su smiled bitterly and shook his head." I have different ideas from Father. Father will not let me inherit the throne." Perhaps after leaving this time, he would never come back in this life.”
"Eldest Young Master, can't you give in and agree to the county system?" Meng Yi couldn't help but ask.”
Fu Su's smile gradually disappeared and he said firmly,""There are some things you can give in to, but there are some things you can't. If I change my faith, not only will my father look down on me, but I will also look down on myself.”
“……”
Meng Yi was a little speechless.
No matter how he looked at it, he felt that Fu Su's big head was like a blockhead.
Those pedantic scholars didn't know anything else, but they were really good at brainwashing.
The Eldest Young Master was completely crippled.
"Meng Yi."
At this moment, Fu Su turned his head and looked at Meng Yi seriously.""I want you to promise me one thing."
"Eldest Young Master, please instruct me!"
Meng Yi cupped his hands and solemnly said.
Fu Su lowered his head and pondered for a moment. Then, he raised his head and said in a deep voice,""Meng Yi, from now on, I want you to follow Little Nineteen. Be as loyal to him as you are to me, and live and die with him.”
