Chapter 720: Chapter 295: Ying Zheng: Zhao Feng, What Do You Think of the Eldest Imperial Son? (2)

”But for you, my eighteenth brother, you need not think too much.”

”After all.”

”Father has long decided that position in his heart.” Fusu smiled faintly, appearing completely relieved.

After speaking.

Fusu paid no attention to Hu Hai’s grim expression and slowly walked outside the hall.

Walking out of the hall, for the first time, he felt his steps become lighter, much more relaxed.

Watching Fusu’s departing figure.

Then looking at Zhao Feng, who was the center of attention, Huai Zhuang’s eyes flashed with a trace of unwillingness.

But he didn’t linger much and walked towards the outside of the hall.

Watching this, Chunyu Yue followed suit.

”Fusu.”

”You are willing to let the Crown Prince position be taken, but I am not willing.”

”I have fought for this position for so many years, I cannot give up.”

”I will definitely find that so-called Eldest Imperial Son and kill him.” Hu Hai’s eyes were brimming with murderous intent.

In a section of the Royal Palace.

In Huai Zhuang’s carriage.

He sat facing Chunyu Yue.

”What to do now?”

”Mr. Fusu has already lost the chance to become the Crown Prince.”

”Our years of support have ultimately come to nothing.”

”Suddenly there’s a previously unheard Eldest Imperial Son appearing; it’s too strange.” Chunyu Yue said extremely unwillingly.

”Unexpectedly, Xia Dong’er is still alive, and even more she bore the Great King a child.”

”Ying Xi, how foolish.”

”If you were going to do it back then, why did you not fully rid her?”

”Yet you let that woman live and ruin all our years of planning.”

At this moment, Huai Zhuang felt extremely unwilling in his heart.

But then.

Looking at the eager face of Chunyu Yue, Huai Zhuang slowly spoke: ”The Prime Minister is already dead, and now a Eldest Imperial Son has appeared; if we do nothing, we will surely be abandoned by the court in the future.”

”You wish to rely on Mr. Fusu to revitalize Confucianism in Qin, to promote Confucian studies.”

”But if Mr. Fusu doesn’t become Crown Prince, everything will be in vain.”

”The Great King favors the Legalists and the Military Strategists.”

”Your Confucianism will never see the light of day.”

”As for me, although I’m the Right Chancellor, I am already old.”

”And I too need to seek opportunities for my family descendants.”

Chunyu Yue frowned: ”I understand what you say, but what can we do now?”

”To make Mr. Fusu Crown Prince, there is only one way.”

”Find that Eldest Imperial Son and kill him.” Huai Zhuang’s eyes flashed with murderous intent.

”Since the Great King has mentioned him, he will surely be heavily guarded, and judging from the Great King’s tone, it is clear he has long found him, yet kept him hidden; if the Great King deliberately protects him, who can harm him?” Chunyu Yue shook his head.

”Now, first send people to search; there must be clues.”

”If we can’t find him, wait until the day he reveals himself, and seize the opportunity to kill him.”

”I don’t believe that any protection could be foolproof.”

”Once he is dead, Mr. Fusu is the Eldest Imperial Son, and no one is more suitable for the Crown Prince position.” Huai Zhuang’s eyes were filled with murderous intent.

”Hmm.” Chunyu Yue nodded as well.

He relies on Fusu, precisely for Confucian studies; although he has many Confucians in the court, they are all powerless, merely participating in ceremonial matters, which falls far short of his vision for a revival of Confucianism.

What he desires is the full revitalization of Confucian studies, for the entire world to embrace Confucianism.

This is the revival of Confucianism.

But now the distance from his dream of revival is too far; if Fusu cannot become Crown Prince, cannot become the future King of Qin, then all this will only be a joke, idle talk.

Inside the Morning Discussion Hall!

All the court officials gradually dispersed.

Zhao Feng finally finished handling it.

”I’ve even demoted myself.”

”Yet still so many people come to curry favor.”

”Though the King’s grace is great, there is only one Emperor Qin Shi Huang!”

Watching the officials walking away, Zhao Feng couldn’t help but sigh in his heart.

”In the Great Qin Dynasty Court, no one surpasses you in prominence.”

”So you’ll get used to it after sometime.”

”As for your desire to demote yourself to Baiyue, dismiss that thought, the First Emperor will not approve it.”

Wang Jian said with a laugh to Zhao Feng.
