Chapter 252

"Are you wondering why I am not dead?"

Looking at Huhai, whose eyes were darting around, a cold smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face once more.

"I originally thought that group would only take my life through other means."

"But I did not expect that you would actually unite with that group."

"I will only ask you one thing."

"Regarding the matter of your eldest brother back then, were you involved?"

Originally, Ying Zheng wanted to let Huhai die.

But he thought of what happened five years ago.

That group were all people who had participated in the events of five years ago.

Why would that group unite with Huhai?

Could it be that Huhai was also involved in the events of five years ago?

When this thought appeared in Ying Zheng's mind, he couldn't help but look at Huhai with suspicious eyes.

"No, I did not."

"How could I possibly do such a thing?"

Huhai subconsciously denied it.

He naturally knew that he absolutely could not admit to this.

Whether it was the Ghost or Ying Zheng, both were investigating the events of five years ago.

If he admitted it, he would likely die tonight regardless.

Looking at Huhai's panicked expression, a bitter taste slowly rose in Ying Zheng's mouth.

His youngest son had actually harmed his proudest eldest son.

"Why?"

Ying Zheng asked in a low voice.

The emperor's proud head slowly drooped.

He seemed unable to bear everything he had learned tonight.

Hearing this, Huhai understood that Ying Zheng already knew everything.

Huhai, who had originally wanted to beg for his life,

suddenly collapsed on the ground like a deflated balloon.

Fusu, beside him, looked at his younger brother, his eyes full of complexity.

He had originally thought that his Imperial Father was just feeling unwell, which was why he had rushed over.

But he did not expect that after arriving, he would witness such a spectacular drama.

His own younger brother had poisoned their father, intending to harm him.

And this younger brother had even participated in the plot to harm their eldest brother five years ago.

Five years ago.

Five years ago, Huhai was only in his teens.

Could it be that he had already set his sights on that position back then?

Fusu dared not continue thinking.

If not for his eldest brother's departure, he would have had no qualifications to compete for that position.

Whether in means or talent, he could not compare to his eldest brother.

And he also firmly believed that the future of Great Qin would only go further in his eldest brother's hands.

Even he did not dare to harbor delusions of sitting in that position.

Huhai, how could he dare?

A trace of resentment appeared in Fusu's eyes.

Under extreme fear, Huhai slowly calmed down.

The body that had been collapsed on the ground slowly sat up.

When he raised his head again, a smile was actually on Huhai's face.

"Hahahaha."

"I originally thought tonight's plan was foolproof, and you old thing would definitely die tonight."

"But I did not expect that I would fall into your trap, old thing."

"The winner is king, the loser is the bandit; I lost, and I accept my defeat."

Huhai said in a cold voice, staring at Ying Zheng with venomous eyes.

Seeing this look, Ying Zheng was stunned.

He did not know that he was held in such resentment by Huhai.

"I have always believed that I have never done anything to wrong you brothers."

"How could I have invited such resentment from you?"

Ying Zheng said in a cold voice.

"Hahaha..."

"Truly laughable!"

"When Ying Mo was here, you never looked at us brothers properly."

"Do you think I am Fusu?"

"Only he, taught by those Confucian scholars to speak only of 'zhi hu zhe ye', would not take it to heart."

Huhai couldn't help but laugh again.

So his resentment.

Others simply did not know.

Even this high and mighty Imperial Father thought that looking at him was a reward.

"No matter what I do, I cannot get a proper look from you."

"I cannot compare to Ying Mo, I cannot compare to Fusu."

"Only when I do those things would you perhaps look at me properly."

Huhai couldn't help but say.

Whenever he did something mischievous, Ying Zheng would always scold him.

Only at those times would Ying Zheng's gaze be filled with his figure.

Little Huhai discovered from that time that only when scolding him would his Imperial Father shift his attention to him.

So he couldn't control himself and continued to do such things.

He just hoped that his Imperial Father's gaze could shift from his two brothers to him.

He knew his talent could not compare to his two brothers.

But so what?

Seeing such a crazed Huhai, Fusu was stunned.

He did not expect that Huhai's inner thoughts were like this.

"Imperial Father, as the Supreme Ruler, spends a large amount of time dealing with court affairs every day."

"How could he possibly care for us every day?"

Fusu couldn't help but say.

Ying Mo, hidden in the darkness, also had a complex expression.

He did not expect Huhai to think this way.

"Then why could Ying Mo always be by Imperial Father's side?"

Huhai's sharp gaze looked at Fusu.

"Are we not Imperial Father's sons?"

He asked again.

His questioning and sharp gaze left Fusu speechless for a moment.

He stood frozen on the spot.

847

"We are both sons, why does my Imperial Father always focus his attention on my eldest brother?"

"I am not reconciled."

"Did you not want to pass the throne to your most excellent eldest son?"

"But do you know how many people want your most excellent eldest son to die?"

"Haha, I just gave it a push."

"I did not expect this matter to go so smoothly."

"Showing one's edge too early without the ability to protect oneself, if he doesn't die, who will?"

Huhai said in a cold voice.

When he said the last sentence, a disdainful smile was on his face.

Ying Mo was very excellent.

But his excellence gave people a feeling of a tree standing out in the forest.

A tree that stands out in the forest will be destroyed by the wind.

No one hoped to see such an excellent prince continue to grow.

After hearing Huhai's last sentence, everyone fell into silence.

Even Ying Zheng on the bed was speechless.

He had considered this back then.

But seeing his increasingly excellent eldest son, combined with his own mastery of the entire country,

made him somewhat careless.

He believed that no one could harm his son under his protection.

But he did not expect.

There were many people who did not want his son to live.
