At night, the moon was as cold as water.
There was only Ying Zheng in Zhangtai Palace.
Behind him.
There was also a black shadow whose face could not be seen clearly.
"Fusu is a good son."
An ancient and deep voice came from the black shadow.
Ying Zheng, who was sitting on the throne, did not turn his head, but said calmly,""Zhen knows. But he must leave Xianyang."
"Are you going to make way for that little guy?" The black shadow continued to ask.”
A smile appeared at the corner of Ying Zheng's mouth as he said softly,""Aren't you only pursuing your own Sword Dao? Are you interested in my court?”
The black shadow's figure trembled slightly. Without saying a word, it gradually disappeared into the candlelight.
At this moment.
The tall and burly Zhang Han walked in and said respectfully,""Your Majesty, the person has been brought here."
" Understood." Ying Zheng nodded calmly." Take him to the secret chamber. Don't let anyone know."”
"This subordinate will obey!"
Zhang Han replied and turned to leave the hall.
After he disappeared, Ying Zheng stood up from his throne and gradually disappeared into the darkness.
In the secret chamber of the Great Qin Imperial Palace.
The candlelight was bright, and it was quiet.
The Eldest Young Master, Fu Su, stood alone in the secret chamber.
He narrowed his eyes slightly, feeling extremely surprised.
There was also a hidden chamber in the palace.
This was the first time Fu Su had heard of it.
"You're here?"
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, Ying Zheng's unique voice of an emperor suddenly rang out in this secret chamber.
Fu Su quickly came back to his senses.
He raised his head and saw Ying Zheng standing in front of him. He immediately prepared to bow.
However, Ying Zheng unexpectedly stretched out a hand and grabbed Fu Su's arm, saying softly,""This is a secret chamber. You and I don't have to be so polite.”
"Imperial Father?"
Fu Su suddenly raised his eyes and looked at Ying Zheng in disbelief.
In his memories.
Ever since he was young, his father had always been stern and strict with him.
Fu Su had never felt a trace of gentleness from Ying Zheng.
But today.
The Imperial Father in front of him seemed to have changed into another person.
Through the faint candlelight.
This was the first time Fu Su had observed Ying Zheng so closely in his life.
His bronze face was covered with tiny wrinkles.
His gray sideburns had already climbed up to the ends of his hair.
The love and gentleness in his eyes warmed his heart.
Fu Su's eyes gradually became moist, and in the end, tears gushed out like a fountain.
He understood.
His father had indeed changed.
He had become a real father.
"Sigh."
Looking at the tearful Fu Su, Ying Zheng let out a long sigh.
He was silent for a long time before he slowly opened his mouth and said,"Fusu, do you resent Imperial Father for asking you to leave the capital?”
Fu Su quickly shook his head and said firmly,""No, Imperial Father, your son has never held any resentment in his heart.”
The corners of Ying Zheng's tightly pursed lips finally curved upwards.
"Good boy."
He patted Fu Su's shoulder and said,""Your sincere heart is very similar to mine when I was young.”
Hearing this, Fu Su couldn't take it anymore.
Ying Zheng was the goal he looked up to all his life.
To be able to get such an acknowledgment from Ying Zheng, Fu Su could die with a smile in his grave.
"Alright, let's get down to business first.”
Like a father, Ying Zheng wiped away Fu Su's tears and said with a smile,""Do you know why I brought you to this secret chamber?”
"I don't know." Fu Su shook his head.
"Then do you know why I insist on sending you to the Nine Plains?" asked Ying Zheng.”
Fu Su nodded and answered honestly,""Imperial Father wants me to go to the Nine Plains to temper myself in name, but in reality, he doesn't want anyone to use me to mess up the court.”
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and he said with a slightly gratified smile,""I am very pleased that you can see this clearly.”
"However, this is not the most important thing.”
Hearing this, Fu Su was a little confused and asked curiously,""Does Imperial Father have other intentions?”
Ying Zheng's smile gradually faded away, and he said with a serious look,""Fusu, I won't keep you in suspense. To be honest, I want to nurture Chang 'an and make him the successor of Great Qin.”
Boom!
The moment these words were said, Fu Su was immediately thrown into a mess on the spot, as if he had been struck by lightning.
She was numb.
What was going on?
"But today's morning court session, Imperial Father clearly…"
Fu Su was still joking, and Ying Zheng raised his hand slightly to signal him not to be anxious.
"I know what you think."
"During the morning court session, everyone saw how furious I was, and everyone concluded that Great Qin's 19th Prince's future had been completely ruined.”
"From now on, no one will pay attention to him, and no one will use him like they used you.”
After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Fu Su's hands and feet turned cold in shock.
He understood, he understood everything.
This was why Imperial Father was furious at Little Nineteen in front of all the officials in the court.
On the surface, it looked like he was blaming her, but in reality, he was protecting her!
The Great Qin Empire seemed calm, but there were always dark waves.
Whether it was the court, the people, or the martial world.
How many people harbored evil intentions, how many people were greedy and vicious?
They would do anything to achieve their goals.
For example, Fu Su, as the eldest son of Great Qin, had been surrounded by countless people since he was young, and they had always faintly influenced his thoughts and changed his soul.
He knew better than anyone else the pain he felt.
Fu Su did not want his brother to experience such pain again.
He raised his head and looked at his father with a burning gaze. As he looked at the one emperor in history, an unprecedented admiration surged in his heart.
His rage in the morning court today had been hidden from Li Si, Zhao Gao, the officials, and even his own son.
"The heart of an emperor is as deep as the sea. The ancients did not lie to me!”
Fu Su could not help but sigh with emotion.
Hearing this, Ying Zheng smiled bitterly.
If it was possible, who would want to live with a mask on?
As the one emperor in history, Ying Zheng had more masks on his face than anyone else, thicker and harder to take off.
He would always wear a mask, face his wife, children, and ministers, and become a true loner until the moment of death.
"Fu Su, this is a secret that only belongs to you and me. Other than you, no one else knows. Even Little Nineteen herself doesn't know.”
"Do you know why I told you this secret?”
Ying Zheng asked.
"Is it because I'm his big brother?" Fu Su shook his head blankly.”
"This is only one of the reasons." Ying Zheng smiled faintly.”
"I want you to go to Jiuyuan because I hope you can pave the way for Chang 'an's future, understand?”
Fu Su's eyes suddenly lit up.
He understood.
Nine Plains '300,000 Great Qin Cavalry were Great Qin's soul, its foundation, and its lifeline.
One day, when Chang 'an ascended to the throne, this force would be able to sweep away all obstacles and have the effect of stabilizing the sea.
His father needed someone, someone that he and Chang 'an could trust, to guard Jiuyuan and control the 300,000 Great Qin's cavalry.
And the most suitable person to do this was him, Ying Fusu!
Thinking of this, Fu Su could not help but feel his scalp go numb.
If he had only admired Ying Zheng before, then at this moment, he was truly prostrating himself on the ground.
Such a huge setup might take years, or even decades.
No one knew how difficult this path would be.
On this road.
Only Ying Zheng and Fu Su, the father and son pair, were willing to forge ahead, in order to create a better future for the little boy who was growing up healthily.
It was only at this moment that Fu Su finally understood how huge the gap between him and his father was.
Everything was understood, and everything was relieved.
Fu Su's face revealed a relaxed smile that he had never seen before.""Imperial Father, don't worry. I will definitely protect this foundation for Little Nineteen. When that day comes, as his big brother, I will definitely protect him with my life!”
Ying Zheng also revealed a gratified smile.
He patted Fu Su's shoulder and encouraged him with the only kind tone he had in his life,""Good son!"
