Chapter 1138
Li Si heard the meaning in Hu Hai's words, "Young Master, do you intend to make a move against the eldest young master?"
"I never said such a thing!"
Hu Hai said indifferently, "I am just a bit worried. My imperial brother has grown up in the palace since he was young, and his constitution is somewhat weak. I hear that the wind and sand in the northern lands are very strong; if, because of the climate, he were to contract an epidemic, that would not be good."
"I hope he will be fine."
Hu Hai kept expressing concern for his brother, but Li Si heard a different meaning in Hu Hai's words.
In all fairness, Li Si had never thought of harming Fu Su.
But if what Hu Hai said was true.
Seeing Ying Zheng had gradually stopped liking Hu Hai and intended to name Fu Su as Crown Prince; he had to consider his own family.
Over these years, he had bet on Hu Hai, and his family was already deeply tied to Hu Hai.
For Hu Hai's sake, he did not know how many times he had opposed Fu Su, Meng Tian, and others.
Turning back to support Fu Su at this time would be equivalent to all his previous investments going down the drain.
For Li Si, this was an unacceptable thing.

Therefore, to be worthy of his past investments, he could only walk down this path with Hu Hai to the end.
"Yes, I hope Young Master Fu Su is fine."
In Li Si's eyes, a hint of ruthlessness also flashed.
If Hu Hai had truly lost the imperial favor, and if the Emperor had truly decided to name Fu Su as Crown Prince.
Before this, there was only one way to help Hu Hai onto the position of Crown Prince.
That was for Fu Su to meet with an accident.
Inside the Zhangtai Palace.
After Seeing Ying Zheng appointed Yi Xiaochuan as the main general, Wang Li as the secondary general, and Young Master Fu Su as the supervising official.
These people went one after another to prepare.
They would set out that very day to crusade against Tu'an from afar.
After arranging for Yi Xiaochuan, Seeing Ying Zheng paid no more attention to these matters.
He continued to play chess with Su Xuan in the Zhangtai Palace.
With nothing to do, they would play a few games. Seeing Ying Zheng could feel that his chess skills had made significant progress. While playing, he would also chat with Su Xuan about state affairs.
Today, for some reason, at Su Xuan's initiative, they talked about... Hu Hai.
"I do not know what the original owner of this body of mine was thinking. Even an outsider like the Queen of Tu'an knew that Fu Su and Hu Hai were in opposition within the court. Hu Hai was ambitious, yet he did not see this. It is no wonder that after he died, Hu Hai would use the help of Zhao Gao and Li Si to tamper with the last will and seize the throne."
"All of this is because he did not establish the position of successor early on. Fu Su and Hu Hai both seemed to have a good chance. Hu Hai, a non-eldest legitimate son, succeeding to the throne was certainly surprising to some, but it was not impossible to accept."
Seeing Ying Zheng evaluated his original self.
Although they were both called Seeing Ying Zheng and both were the First Emperor, he did not consider the Qin Huang of this world to be himself.
In Seeing Ying Zheng's view, the Qin Huang of this world was merely a failure.
If he had not come to this world, in a few years, the other party would die, and the last will after his death would be tampered with by Zhao Gao and Li Si in collusion. Hu Hai would succeed to the throne, and the Great Qin empire that the other party had built with his own hands would perish in the second generation.
And he, having come to this world, would rewrite all of this.
Now, there was no longer a Zhao Gao.
At the same time, because he had learned of the future from Gao Yao in advance and knew the truth about the fall of Qin, he would also do his utmost to change this situation.
Li Si and Hu Hai, in his eyes, were merely grasshoppers after the autumn; they would not be able to jump for many more days.
"This time, His Majesty took the opportunity of Yi Xiaochuan's crusade against Tu'an to appoint Fu Su as the supervising official to establish his prestige so that he could be named Crown Prince. I fear Li Si and the others can also see this."
Su Xuan spoke after Seeing Ying Zheng finished.
"What does the State Preceptor wish to say?"
Seeing Ying Zheng looked at Su Xuan and asked.
In his plan, as long as Fu Su returned successfully as the supervising official this time, he would immediately use Fu Su's merit as supervising official as a reason to name Fu Su as Crown Prince, completely cutting off Hu Hai's thoughts and ending the bipolar opposition within the court.
