Chapter 124 Sir, have you ever thought about becoming the Emperor of Qin?
After hearing this, Ye Chi fell into deep thought.
He knew that Li Si's judgment had never been wrong, but this matter was of great importance and he had to consider it carefully.
"I trust what Prime Minister Li said." Ye Chi spoke slowly, his eyes flashing with a sharp light, "But this matter is of great importance, we still need to consider it carefully."
Li Si nodded slightly, a trace of solemnity between his brows, "How should we proceed with this matter? Please let Lord Ye know clearly."
Ye Chi's eyes were like torches. He ordered in a deep voice: "Prime Minister Li, from now on, you need to investigate this matter in a big way, so that everyone in the city will know about it."
Hearing this, Li Si's eyes flashed with doubt, "Master Ye, isn't this just alerting the enemy?"
Ye Chi shook his head slightly, with a meaningful smile on his face, "Prime Minister Li, since you have arrested someone and found out his identity, the other party must have known your movements. At this time, the best strategy is to do the opposite."
After saying that, he leaned close to Li Si's ear and whispered a few words.
After hearing this, Li Si's eyes sparkled, and he seemed to have understood something. "Lord Ye, your idea is great. I will do it immediately."
After saying that, Li Si turned around and left in a hurry, leaving Ye Chi alone under the palace wall, with wisdom shining in his eyes.
There, he saw Prince Hu Hai who was immersed in the game.
After receiving the notification, Zhao Gao hurriedly stepped inside, passed through layers of palace corridors, and finally arrived at the deep palace.
The courtyard is shaded by green trees and filled with the fragrance of flowers, creating a vibrant scene.
The main building of the palace is a towering palace with a unique style. The roof is covered with glazed tiles, which shines brightly in the sun.
At this moment, Hu Hai was concentrating on the game of tossing arrows. He held the arrow in his hand, his eyes firm and focused, as if he was going to put all his energy into this throw.
The layout of the mansion is well-organized, which not only highlights the dignity of the royal family, but also retains its elegance.
He has a handsome face and his eyes sparkle with intelligence, as if he is full of curiosity and desire for everything in the world.
……
He took a deep breath, his eyes fixed on the mouth of the pot in front of him, and lightly twisted the arrow feathers with his fingers, adjusting the angle and strength. Then he swung his arm, and the arrow shot out like a meteor, passing steadily through the air and hitting the center of the pot.
There are exquisite patterns carved on the walls, and every detail reveals the craftsman's ingenuity and craftsmanship.
Zhao Gao stood quietly aside, looking at Hu Hai's focused and devoted look, and couldn't help but admire him secretly in his heart.
Xianyang Palace.
Zhao Gao waited quietly by the side, waiting for Hu Hai to finish the game.
Hu Hai was young and immature, his body had not yet grown up, and there was still a hint of childishness between his brows.
His movements were light and agile, and every throw seemed so serious and powerful, as if he was waging a battle with his own heart.
The eaves are high, like a phoenix spreading its wings about to fly.
The Eighteenth Prince's Mansion stands quietly. Although it is not as grand as Fusu Mansion, it has its own unique solemnity and elegance.
The atmosphere in the palace became exceptionally quiet and peaceful at this moment, with only the sound of Hu Hai throwing arrows echoing in the air.
Hu Hai caught a glimpse of Zhao Gao entering the hall, but did not immediately stop the game in his hand.
The bluestone-paved paths meander through the area, inviting visitors to explore further.
The Xuanzhong gate was tightly closed, and the lintel was carved with exquisite dragon and phoenix patterns, symbolizing the dignity and authority of the imperial family!
Passing through the gate is the spacious front yard.
"I got it right!" Hu Hai cheered, his face filled with a proud and satisfied smile.
He then turned around and bowed respectfully to Zhao Gao, "Greetings, teacher."
The voice revealed respect and closeness to the teacher. Zhao Gao saw this and a trace of relief and favor flashed in his eyes.
He nodded gently, as a response to Hu Hai's greeting, "Young Master, your skills have improved, which is really gratifying."
Hu Hai was even more proud of his teacher's praise. He asked curiously, "Teacher, why are you here?"
The voice was full of anticipation and curiosity about Zhao Gao's purpose.
Zhao Gao smiled slightly. He did not answer Hu Hai's question immediately. Instead, he walked slowly to Hu Hai's side, patted him on the shoulder gently, and then slowly said, "There are some things I need to discuss with you..."
His voice was gentle and steady, and seemed to carry a reassuring power.
Hu Hai blinked, ordered people to bring the best tea and exquisite snacks, and sat with Zhao Gao in the small pavilion in the courtyard.
The breeze was blowing gently, the fragrance of tea was everywhere, and Zhao Gao's gentle temperament complemented this elegant environment.
Zhao Gao took a sip of tea, slowly put down the teacup, and looked at Hu Hai with deep eyes, "Sir, have you ever thought about... becoming the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, or even the emperor?"
Hu Hai was shocked when he heard this and almost knocked over the teacup in his hand. "This is my elder brother Fusu's position. How can I take it away from him?"
He shook his head repeatedly, his face full of fear and anxiety.
Zhao Gao was not impatient. He smiled gently and patiently advised Hu Hai, "Sir, you are wrong. The reason why Your Majesty has not appointed a crown prince is that you hope to select the best one."
"Now, you are talented and kind-hearted, and you are the best candidate for the position of Crown Prince."
"This is for the sake of Daqin. My Lord, please do not let down His Majesty's efforts!"
Zhao Gao's words were like a gentle spring breeze, gradually dispelling Hu Hai's concerns.
He lowered his head and pondered for a moment, without any deep thoughts, and suddenly said: "If this is the case, Hai... will definitely do his best for Daqin!"
There was a determination gleam in his eyes, as if he was ready to shoulder that heavy responsibility.
Zhao Gao nodded with satisfaction. He knew that Hu Hai was a simple and kind-hearted child, and with a little guidance he would be able to walk on the right path.
And today's words were the beginning of his pointing the way for Hu Hai...
……
The moonlight was hazy, and the fires in Xianyang city flickered like scattered stars.
Soldiers held torches high to shine, and the sound of cavalry resounded through the sky.
The whole city is on alert, as if facing a powerful enemy!
Soldiers walked the streets and alleys, searching every house.
There is no door that they do not enter, no window that they do not peek into, every tree and grass is an enemy, the wind is blowing and the people are in a panic!
The soldiers marched in a line, their steps clanging and their eyes scanning the surroundings sharply.
All doors and windows were carefully examined, as if trying to see through the mysteries inside.
Every tree and grass looks like an enemy, and the whole city is on high alert!
On this night, security was tight and the atmosphere was heavy, as if the air had frozen and people's hearts were trembling!
In this tense atmosphere, a group of people gathered in a hidden corner of the city.
This is a dilapidated courtyard. The broken tile walls and dim lights make it look extremely mysterious.
The remnants of the Chu State held a secret meeting here. They were dressed in black and had solemn expressions!
"With such a thorough search, I'm afraid our hidden weapons will be discovered sooner or later." An old man said worriedly.
"Yes, the strict investigation in Xianyang this time is of no trivial matter. We have to think of a foolproof plan." Another young man said, his brows revealing anxiety.
