Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield

Chapter 734  Chapter 302: Humble Hu Hai! The Different Treatment of Zhao Zhengʼs Son and Ying Zhengʼs Son!

”I never expected that you would be my elder brother!”

Fusu stood upright, looking at Zhao Feng with a complex gaze.

Once.

The people under my command repeatedly targeted Zhao Feng, even regarding Zhao Feng as a life-and-death enemy.

Ultimately.

Zhao Feng rose too quickly.

He was targeted by Wang Wan and other ministers, who felt that Zhao Feng would inevitably affect the foundation of Qin in the future.

In the end.

If you want to accuse someone of a crime, thereʼs always a reason to be found.

They were obviously aiming to deal with Zhao Feng, only that they found a reason for themselves to do so.

”Itʼs not only you who didnʼt expect it, I also had no idea myself.”

Zhao Feng chuckled softly.

Now that he had arrived, Zhao Feng fully accepted the identity of the Crown Prince.

As for dealing with Fusu.

Zhao Feng did not feel much aversion, seeing him as a mere pitiable person being led by the nose.

Moreover.

Since Wang Wan and the others started targeting him, Fusu had always been restrained, even actively apologizing to calm things down. It was clear that Fusu was not acting by his own will.

Regarding him.

Zhao Feng understood his character thoroughly.

Heʼs overly stubborn.

And indeed, he has been brainwashed by the Confucianism of this era.

However.

His abilities are not bad. If used properly, he could definitely bring peace to a region.

”Perhaps.”

”This is destiny.”

”Father once had expectations for me, but I failed to meet them, and I couldnʼt reach his expectations.”

”Your arrival compensates for what Father envisioned for the future.”

”With you here, the future of Qin will be more stable,” Fusu said with a hint of sentimentality.

”Itʼs rare for you to be so open-minded.”

”I thought you would resent me for taking whatʼs yours,” Zhao Feng smiled.

”Whatʼs not mine is not mine, and from the start, Iʼve been shouldering too much—the expectations of Father, the expectations of the courtiers.”

”Even if I didnʼt go, they would have pushed me forward.”

”Now that youʼve appeared, I no longer need to bear these burdens.” Fusu smiled broadly, feeling very at ease, with a sense of freedom.

”Compared to your other brothers, you are the most outstanding,” Zhao Feng praised.

”Compared to you, itʼs nothing.”

Fusu shook his head, then concernedly asked, ”Now that the Empress is established, the Crown Prince is decided, and the structure of the Court is about to change, what plans does my elder brother have for the old ministers?”

”If the old ones donʼt leave, how can the new ones come?”

”Clinging to old rules, how can a nation be strong?”

”Now that I have assumed this position, change will naturally follow,” Zhao Feng chuckled softly.

Then he stopped conversing with Fusu and walked towards the Morning Discussion Hall in great strides.

”He is indeed preparing to make moves against the Court.”

”I hope Huai Xiang and others can come to their senses.”

Fusu sighed internally.

He naturally heard the implication in Zhao Fengʼs words.

”Damn Zhao Feng.”

At one side, Hu Hai stared at Zhao Feng, filled with reluctance.

Yet with his cold animosity.

Zhao Feng just turned his head slightly and immediately saw Hu Hai.

”This guy has no small ambition, still daring to harbor murderous intent towards me.”

”In that case.”

”You better deliver yourself willingly; if I donʼt kill you, Iʼd really be letting down the original history of Qin,” Zhao Feng thought coldly to himself.

He completely disregarded Hu Hai.

An arrogant and utterly incompetent person.

The vast Qin was ruined by this one worthless person. If Zhao Feng hadnʼt appeared, Emperor Qin Shi Huang would have torn Hu Hai to pieces for the things he did, had he known.

”The First Emperor is coming to court!”

”All officials, pay your respects.”

A loud shout emanated from inside the grand hall.

Soon after.

The hall doors swung open.

The Imperial Guard Army came to the front of the hall, in strict formation, prohibiting weapons from entering the hall.

Meanwhile, Zhao Feng stepped inside.

Without any obstruction.

As he walked past, the Imperial Guards also bowed in salute.

The Crown Prince has already become ruler.

They are all his subjects.

Zhao Feng seated himself at the position of Lord Wuʼan and sat down.

The hundred officials entered the hall in an orderly fashion.

When the courtiers gathered.

”The First Emperor has arrived.”

A loud shout resounded through the court.

”We, the ministers, greet the First Emperor.”

”May the First Emperor live for ten thousand years.”

”May the Great Qin live for ten thousand years.”

The high-spirited shouts echoed throughout the court.

Within this spirited environment.

Ying Zheng, in his black dragon emperor robe and with a crown on his head, slowly advanced to the high position.

Then he raised his hand.

”All of you, rise,” Ying Zheng said in a majestic voice.

It was evident.

After openly reclaiming his wife, Ying Zhengʼs complexion had become considerably more rosy.

”Thank you, First Emperor.”

The entire assembly of civil and military officials shouted in unison.

At this moment!

Ying Zheng noticed Zhao Feng sitting in the position of the Grand Commandant.

And Hu Hai standing at the bottom of the stairs.

While Fusu was quite clever, standing among the civil officials, Hu Hai seemed to be standing there trying to make his presence known.

”Now.”

”The Crown Prince has been established.”

”The position of the prince overseeing state affairs is no longer needed.”

”Hu Hai.”

”You no longer need to attend court.”

”Withdraw now.”

Ying Zheng directly addressed Hu Hai.

In a single sentence.

He left Hu Hai awkwardly standing at the bottom of the stairs, his face turning red.

Yet he dared not defy it.

”Your son accepts the decree.”

Hu Hai could only bow in acceptance, resentfully withdrawing from the court.

But as he turned around.

His face was full of hatred and unwillingness.

”As for Fusu.”

”Among the Nine Ministers, which position would you like to assume?”

Ying Zheng then looked towards Fusu.

”I will follow Fatherʼs arrangements,” Fusu quickly replied.

”Your heart is benevolent and virtuous.”

”Concerned with the worldʼs affairs.”

”Now I give you two choices: one is to choose a position among the Nine Ministers as an auxiliary officer.”

”The other is for me to grant you a county to govern.”

Ying Zheng spoke slowly.

Upon hearing this.

Huai Zhuang and other old ministers showed signs of anxiety.

If Fusu chose to stay in Xianyang, there might still be future possibilities.
