Chapter 351
Ying Zheng could not care about Lord Lord Changping's life or death, but he cared about Fusu.
Fusu was his eldest son, and he had an unusual significance to Ying Zheng.
To this day, Ying Zheng still remembered the moment Fusu came into this world.
He was so excited and so happy, and because of this, he placed high hopes on Fusu.
This could be seen from the fact that he let Han Fei serve as Fusu's teacher.
Earlier, after Lord Lord Changping was dismissed from his position as Chancellor, Ying Zheng forbade Fusu from visiting Lord Lord Changping. It seemed heartless, but in fact, it was to protect Fusu.
After hearing Ying Zheng's words, Lord Lord Changping had an expression of "as expected."
At the same time, he was also somewhat relieved.
Since Ying Zheng still cared about Fusu and Mi Ji, this proved that even if he died, they would be safe and sound.
After his thoughts flashed, Lord Lord Changping said the following words. "207"
Along with the destruction of Chu.
Of the six states of Shandong, Qin had already destroyed five.
At this moment, no one would doubt that Qin could unify the world.
The prestige of King Ying Zheng of Qin had also reached an unprecedented level.
Just when the monarchs and ministers of Qin were celebrating the destruction of Chu.
There were always some untimely tragedies happening at this time.
Lord Lord Changping died of illness!
Lord Lord Changping Xiong Qi, as a relative of the Chu royal family, was the grandson of Qin King Zhaowang, and his younger sister was Ying Zheng's favorite concubine, making him the uncle of the eldest prince. Because of his status, his relationship with Ying Zheng was extremely close, and he was trusted and reused by Ying Zheng.
Back then, Ying Zheng had appointed him as the Left Chancellor.
He was extremely capable, and when he served as Chancellor, he accomplished many things for Qin.
But no one expected that one day, Ying Zheng would dismiss him from his position as Chancellor.
Afterward, Lord Lord Changping had been recuperating in his mansion due to a serious illness. No one knew how his illness was, because Ying Zheng forbade anyone from visiting him, until today, when the news of his death spread... many ministers finally remembered this person, Lord Lord Changping.
Earlier, when Ying Zheng dismissed Lord Lord Changping from his position as Chancellor and placed him under house arrest in his mansion, some people guessed what Lord Lord Changping had done, but Ying Zheng did not say, and they did not know.
They could only be certain of one thing, and that was that Lord Lord Changping had lost the imperial favor.
But after Lord Lord Changping died, they found they were wrong.
Ying Zheng seemed to value Lord Lord Changping very much, and for Lord Lord Changping's funeral, he adopted an extremely high standard and even personally presided over his funeral.
At the funeral, the eldest prince Fusu, Lord Lord Changping's daughter Mi Hong Lian, and Ying Zheng's favorite concubine and Lord Lord Changping's younger sister Mi Ji all came to attend.
Because Ying Zheng had two completely different attitudes toward Lord Lord Changping before and after his death, this could not help but confuse many people.
So... what exactly did Lord Lord Changping do?
Han Fei also attended Lord Lord Changping's funeral.
After returning to his mansion, he secretly guessed.
Ying Zheng did not tell him what Lord Lord Changping had done, but he was very smart, and from Ying Zheng's various actions earlier, he could judge some clues.
"What Lord Lord Changping did was definitely not small; otherwise, the King of Qin could not have treated him like that and even forbade the eldest prince Fusu from visiting him. The reason he forbade the eldest prince Fusu from visiting him was because he was afraid that Lord Lord Changping's affairs would implicate Fusu?"
"Not long after Qin destroyed Chu, Lord Lord Changping died. Regardless of whether his death was normal, this shows that his death was very likely related to Chu!"
"That's right, Lord Lord Changping was a man of Chu!"
"Then, why did the King of Qin have two completely different attitudes toward Lord Lord Changping before and after his death?"
Han Fei continued to think.
Soon, he had the answer.
It was still the previous guess: Ying Zheng did not want Lord Lord Changping's affairs to implicate Fusu.
It was precisely because what Lord Lord Changping did was very big.
Therefore, before he died, he did not want Fusu and Lord Lord Changping to have too much involvement.
After he died, he even went so far as to temporarily abandon his hatred for Lord Lord Changping and disguise it so that Lord Lord Changping's crimes would not be exposed.
If what he did was exposed.
Even if Fusu and Lord Lord Changping did not have much involvement, just by the fact that Lord Lord Changping was his uncle, Fusu would inevitably be implicated by those with ulterior motives.
"Interesting!"
After figuring out the reason, Han Fei sighed like this.
Of course, the reason why Ying Zheng would temporarily put down his hatred for Lord Lord Changping and choose to hide the crimes committed by Lord Lord Changping.
According to his guess, there was another most important reason, and that was... the State of Chu had been destroyed!
The storm caused by Lord Lord Changping's death was not big, but it was not small either.
But because of Ying Zheng's change in attitude toward Lord Lord Changping, it ultimately attracted the attention of many people.
The master of the Net, Zhao Gao, was one of them.
"You really value the eldest prince Fusu!"
In the dark room, the light was dim, and Zhao Gao was hidden in the darkness, a strange smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
After being slapped by Su Xuan that day and going to Ying Zheng to complain, only to be reprimanded by Ying Zheng, he understood a truth.
No matter how hard he tried and how much he did, he would ultimately be unable to be completely trusted by Ying Zheng.
The person Ying Zheng trusted most was always Su Xuan.
In the final analysis, it was because Su Xuan had appeared by Ying Zheng's side earliest and helped Ying Zheng overcome several catastrophes, while he, although he decisively sold out Lao Ai after discovering Lao Ai's rebellion, to Ying Zheng, his actions could only be considered icing on the cake, not help in a time of need.
Although Ying Zheng handed the Net to him to manage.
But if he and Su Xuan appeared at the same time, Ying Zheng would still only believe what Su Xuan said.
After that incident, Zhao Gao seemed to have grown up.
Since Ying Zheng, the King of Qin, could not trust him 100%, then he didn't mind cultivating a... King who trusted him 100%!
First, he ruled out the eldest prince Fusu.
The eldest prince Fusu was the son Ying Zheng valued most, so he could not possibly have the opportunity to influence the eldest prince. Since the eldest prince wouldn't work, he would change to another candidate.
For example, the youngest prince—Hu Hai!
Zhao Gao developed ambition and even selected a target.
Yin-Yang School.
Su Xuan's seclusion this time was not long, but it was not short either.
After he came out of seclusion, he also learned about Lord Lord Changping's affairs.
Su Xuan was not surprised by Lord Lord Changping's death.
The reason Ying Zheng kept him was just to let him witness the destruction of Chu. When Chu was destroyed, it was also the time for his death.
It was Ying Zheng's actions after Lord Lord Changping's death that were beyond his expectations.
He actually chose to help Lord Lord Changping hide his crimes.
Su Xuan thought a little and understood the painstaking efforts behind it.
