Chapter 604

~5 min read 810 words

Xianyang City, in Fusu's sleeping palace.

"Young Master, now, you are the only heir to the entire Great Qin."

Fu Nian's tone was somewhat high-spirited.

He, who had always been steady, could no longer suppress the joy in his heart at this moment.

He had always thought that he would need to plot for a long time to send Fusu to that position.

But he didn't expect Hu Hai and the group of people behind him to be so stupid.

Still thinking of attempting to rebel.

But he didn't expect the final fruit to fall into his hands.

"Teacher, don't say that."

"This heir, I am ashamed to accept it."

Fusu's expression was not good.

After Hu Hai died, although he no longer had any opponents, he didn't feel happy.

In any case, Hu Hai was his own younger brother after all.

Fu Nian looked at Fusu's expression and immediately understood what he was thinking in his heart.

"Is the Young Master sad because of Young Master Hu Hai's matter?"

"Does the Young Master know that Young Master Hu Hai committed the crime of rebellion?"

"Even the Emperor did not cover up Young Master Hu Hai's crime in the slightest; if the Emperor knew that the Young Master felt sad about this..."

"What do you think the Emperor would think?"

Fu Nian reminded him in another way.

Fusu, after hearing Fu Nian's words, frowned immediately.

He naturally understood the meaning in Fu Nian's words.

Hu Hai committed the crime of rebellion; even Made Ying Zheng didn't help him cover up the crime he committed.

Now the entire Great Qin knew that the Third Imperial Prince Hu Hai attempted to rebel and was executed on the spot by the Emperor.

And he was sad for the Third Imperial Prince's death; how was this not dissatisfaction with the Emperor's actions?

Realizing this, Fusu's face immediately became incomparably pale.

"I don't have that meaning."

He shook his head and said.

"Young Master, I naturally know you don't have that meaning, but others don't know."

"Although you are now the Emperor's only heir, similarly, everyone's eyes will also be on you."

"Your current emotions can appear in front of us, but absolutely cannot appear in front of others."

Fu Nian continued.

"Teacher, you are right."

"Now the only heir to the entire Great Qin is me, so that group of people will definitely set their sights on me."

"I absolutely cannot let that group of people catch any handle."

Fusu, awakened by Fu Nian, nodded and put away all the expressions on his face.

"Since you are already the Emperor's only heir, then some things don't need you to do them anymore."

Fu Nian continued.

He had intended to let Fusu do more things in front of Made Ying Zheng to win Made Ying Zheng's attention.

This would be beneficial for him and Hu Hai to compete for that position.

But now there was no need to do these time-wasting things anymore.

"Young Master, why not stay by the Emperor's side and learn how to handle court affairs every day?"

Fu Nian continued to speak.

As the next heir, Made Ying Zheng definitely hoped that Fusu could handle state affairs well.

"Teacher, don't worry."

"I will definitely stay by Father Emperor's side and learn how to handle court affairs well."

A faint, elegant smile appeared on Fusu's face.

When leaving the imperial palace, Fu Nian's mood had always been very good.

Until returning to his own mansion, he was dispelled of his good mood by the news brought by the servant.

"In the West Courtyard, it seems he has fallen ill again."

And the one living in the West Courtyard now was Zhang Liang.

Hearing that his little junior brother had fallen ill again, Fu Nian frowned immediately.

Then he walked quickly toward the location where Zhang Liang was.

Just as he arrived at the courtyard, he heard painful sounds from inside.

"Ah..."

At this moment, Zhang Liang could no longer bear the pain brought by the toxins in his body.

As if his entire body had fallen into a snake pit, he was enduring the pain of ten thousand snakes biting his body.

"Kill me, Senior Brother."

While struggling, Zhang Liang saw Fu Nian walking in from the door.

He stretched out a hand, tightly gripping Fu Nian's sleeve, and said weakly.

At this moment, Zhang Liang had long been tortured by the toxins in his body to the point of having no temper left.

He originally thought his ability could suppress these toxins.

Now it seemed he had overestimated himself.

Every day at a fixed time, the toxins in his body would erupt again.

Having to endure such great pain every day, even if Zhang Liang's character was firm, he had somewhat collapsed.

"Kill me..."

"Ah..."

Violent pain surged up in waves.
