Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 719  Chapter 295: Ying Zheng: Zhao Feng, What Do You Think of the Eldest Imperial Son?

Listening to Zhao Fengʼs words.

At this moment, Han Fei felt somewhat helpless.

”My Eldest Imperial Son, nowadays your status is completely different.”

”In the past, although you were the head of the military officials, you were still a colleague, but now you are the Eldest Imperial Son, the future Crown Prince, and I am your future subject.”

”How could I dare treat you as I did before?”

Han Fei thought to himself, feeling deeply helpless.

Recalling his casual interactions with Zhao Feng before, Han Fei felt somewhat strange.

”Lord Wuʼan has once again annihilated a nation for Qin, a feat of great merit, naturally I must show respect.” Han Fei said sternly.

Looking at Han Fei.

Zhao Feng glanced up and down, then said, ”Are you still Han Fei?”

”In the past, as soon as I returned, you would be calling for drinks and meats. This time, youʼve changed completely?”

”Why?”

”Youʼre acting as if I were some superior officer of yours.”

Upon hearing this.

Li Si immediately laughed and said, ”Lord Wuʼan jokes, this is the court, Chancellor Han must show consideration.”

”Why?”

”Unified under the heavens, afraid people might accuse the head of civil officials and the head of military officials of colluding?” Zhao Feng mused, and smirked quietly to Han Fei.

”Well...”

Han Feiʼs expression changed, as it was something he hadnʼt truly anticipated.

”Alas.”

”Lord Wuʼan.”

”This court will become complicated in the future.”

”The First Emperor has just declared the Eldest Imperial Son to return and be designated as the Crown Prince. Surely, Lord Wuʼan has some thoughts on this?” Han Fei asked with a smile.

”Unified under the heavens, afraid people might accuse the head of civil officials and the head of military officials of colluding?” Zhao Feng mused, and smirked quietly to Han Fei.

”This court will become complicated in the future.”

”Well...”

”The First Emperor has just declared the Eldest Imperial Son to return and be designated as the Crown Prince. Surely, Lord Wuʼan has some thoughts on this?” Han Fei asked with a smile.

Han Feiʼs expression changed, as it was something he hadnʼt truly anticipated.

”Alas.”

”What thoughts could I have.”

”Lord Wuʼan.”

”Just observe.”

”Could the Eldest Imperial Son possibly harm me?” Zhao Feng chuckled, not taking it seriously at all.

However.

Zhao Feng was indeed curious about this legendary Eldest Imperial Son.

Who could he be?

A person never seen in history.

”Seems that Lord Wuʼan hasnʼt met this Eldest Imperial Son.” Han Fei laughed.

”Have you seen him?” Zhao Feng asked curiously.

”Never.”

Han Fei shook his head, though internally thinking: ”Iʼve seen him countless times, but if it wasnʼt the First Emperor who spoke, who would have thought the world-renowned Lord Wuʼan would be the Eldest Imperial Son of Qin!”

”Then why say anything.”

”Wait for the First Emperor to summon him, then he will appear.”

”Appearing now would only invite trouble.” Zhao Feng laughed, choosing not to dwell on it.

”Lord Wuʼan returns triumphant.”

”Congratulations to Lord Wuʼan!”

At this moment!

Feng Quji and Feng Jie both strolled over.

”How rare.”

”In the past, the two of the Feng family were merely acquaintances, barely offering greetings, yet today theyʼve greeted voluntarily.”

Observing their approach, Zhao Feng was a bit surprised.

Within the court.

Apart from his father-in-law and Han Fei, Zhao Feng had not deeply connected with others.

”Thank you, gentlemen.”

Zhao Feng smiled, clasping his fists in a courteous return.

”I heard that Lord Wuʼanʼs sister is engaged to the son of the Tingwei, could our brotherly pair request a cup of celebratory wine?” Feng Quji asked with a laugh.

”Haha.”

”The date is yet unset, but should I be able to invite you both for celebratory wine, it would be my honor.”

”Once the date is set, Iʼll surely send an invitation.” Zhao Feng said smilingly.

Naturally accepting the goodwill from the two brothers of the Feng family.

Though he didnʼt know why they suddenly behaved so, as long as they werenʼt causing trouble like Wang Wan, Zhao Feng was inclined to be cordial.

If they were like Wang Wan, then Zhao Feng certainly wouldnʼt be so courteous.

Heʼd definitely strike them with thunderous force.

”Lord Wuʼanʼs words are noted by us brothers.”

”On the day of the banquet, my brother and I will certainly attend.” Feng Quji smiled, clasping fists.

”Certainly.” Zhao Feng replied with a smile.

Having just returned to the court.

Gloriously returning.

Though Zhao Feng harbors self-deprecation, most of the courtiers can clearly see that Ying Zhengʼs favor for Zhao Feng hasnʼt diminished.

For a time.

Many courtiers gathered around Zhao Feng with congratulations.

And the news of Zhao Fengʼs sisterʼs betrothal to Li You had spread, leading many courtiers to thick-facedly request wine.

Regarding these, Zhao Feng naturally handled them one by one.

However at this moment.

Not all courtiers came to congratulate Zhao Feng.

About half the courtiers were restless, unsettled in spirit.

Because the news just announced by Ying Zheng was like thunder, causing many to be uneasy.

At the foot of the steps.

Fusu and Hu Hai stood on the spot, not moving, but neither of their expressions looked good.

”Brother.”

”Unexpected, after all our disputes, itʼs all in vain.”

”Unexpected thereʼs yet another brother above you.”

”What a joke.”

Hu Hai displayed a trace of cold and frustration, his eyes full of resentment.

”If itʼs not ours, then itʼs not ours.”

”Adhere to Fatherʼs will.”

Fusu took a glance at Hu Hai.

Though disappointed within.

Todayʼs moment, however, breathed a silent relief for Fusu, seemingly shedding much of the burden heʼd carried.

All along.

Fusu had been supported by Wang Wan and others, nominated to become the future Prince of Qin.

Fusu carried many burdens, greatly pressured.

Yet, Fusu was chosen, for his maternal family, for the future, not wanting to disappoint his supporters, Fusu relentlessly strove for that position through his competency.

Eventually!

He never caught his fatherʼs eye.

”Are you willing?”

Hu Hai gritted his teeth, asking Fusu.

”What comes from unwillingness?”

”Who can alter Fatherʼs will?”

”Moreover.”

”Every step of the way, Iʼve been pushed forward, carrying too much, now I can finally take a breath.”
