Eradicating hidden dangers!

After asking that question earlier, Seeing Ying Zheng could feel that Li Si had fallen into a state of deep thought. If Li Si had answered that Hu Hai was more suitable to be the successor, Seeing Ying Zheng would not mind giving Li Si a surprise.

As it turned out, at the last moment, Li Si reacted abruptly, which actually made Seeing Ying Zheng feel some regret.

"You are quite smart!"

Saying this to Li Si, Seeing Ying Zheng added: "I hope you will also understand in the future that the current Great Qin is still ruled by Me. Do not randomly choose sides, lest you bring a fatal disaster upon yourself."

"Your Majesty, I..."

Li Si still wanted to explain a few things.

Seeing Ying Zheng did not give Li Si a chance to explain, "Withdraw!"

"Yes!"

Li Si left the Zhangtai Palace. After leaving, he realized that in this short period of time, a layer of cold sweat had actually appeared on his back.

It was truly too dangerous.

In that instant earlier, he thought His Majesty the Emperor was going to kill him.

"Why exactly was it?"

Li Si was terrified, and then, he pondered the reason for the matter.

Earlier, His Majesty the Emperor had developed killing intent toward him.

He believed he had done nothing wrong, so why would His Majesty the Emperor want to kill him?

No, His Majesty the Emperor might not have been targeting him.

Li Si thought of another matter.

Before His Majesty the Emperor developed killing intent toward him, he had also asked him a question, which was who could be the successor between Fu Su and Hu Hai.

Li Si firmly believed that if he had answered wrongly.

His Majesty the Emperor might have killed him.

So, was the reason for everything on Fu Su and Hu Hai?

Which one of these two had offended His Majesty the Emperor? Making His Majesty the Emperor want to kill those who supported them?

Related thoughts flashed through Li Si's mind.

Ultimately, he leaned toward the latter.

"Is it Hu Hai?"

The son Fu Su, although not officially conferred as Crown Prince, had many supporters, and judging from Seeing Ying Zheng's attitude toward him in the past, he also intended to select him as the successor.

Only Hu Hai was different.

Although he was the youngest son, previously, Seeing Ying Zheng had not revealed any intention of appointing him as the successor.

Today Seeing Ying Zheng mentioned it abruptly; clearly, Hu Hai had done something, and Seeing Ying Zheng had deliberately mentioned the other party in a sarcastic tone.

There was another reason that made Li Si firm that it was Hu Hai who had provoked the Emperor.

That was, Hu Hai's teacher in the past was... Zhao Gao.

Although Zhao Gao was dead, the things he had done could be described as countless.

He was Hu Hai's teacher; His Majesty the Emperor would inevitably be angry at Hu Hai because of this and develop a sense of disgust toward Hu Hai.

Summoning Li Si was just a whim of Seeing Ying Zheng.

The Li Si of the other world, in order to confront Meng Tian, chose to support Hu Hai. If following the normal trajectory, he even tampered with the Qin Huang's edict after the Qin Huang died, causing the throne to fall to Hu Hai, which then led to Great Qin perishing in the second generation.

Of course, he also had an accomplice, Zhao Gao.

But it couldn't be helped that the Zhao Gao of the current world was already dead.

So Seeing Ying Zheng could only summon Li Si to ask him. He wanted to know if the Li Si of this world would still choose Hu Hai like the Li Si of the other world.

If so, then no matter how talented Li Si was, he could not be reused.

Anyway, there were plenty of virtuous talents in the world. Even without Li Si, there were still others who could replace his position, such as in the other world, before leaving, the things he had entrusted to the Fu Su of the other world, in that process, mentioned many people.

These people, according to Yi Xiaochuan, were the pillars of the new dynasty, and without exception, they were all talents who could replace Li Si.

However, the Li Si of this world was smarter than Seeing Ying Zheng had imagined.

Since Li Si gave a satisfactory answer, Seeing Ying Zheng naturally could not deal with Li Si.

After Li Si left, Seeing Ying Zheng spoke again, "General Zhang Han!"

In the dark, figures appeared, and finally a man wearing armor appeared in front of Seeing Ying Zheng; it was General Zhang Han, the leader of the Shadow Secret Guards.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!"

General Zhang Han bowed respectfully.

Seeing Ying Zheng was not polite either, directly giving an order to General Zhang Han, "Investigate Hu Hai for Me."

If the Hu Hai of this world was like the Hu Hai of the other world, also a person harboring evil intentions, it meant that the Hu Hai of this world was also not very clean. As long as General Zhang Han could find a little problem with Hu Hai.
