Seeing that Hu Hai was so unrepentant, Ying Zheng was even more angry.
He threw the case file directly in front of Hu Hai. The case file hit Hu Hai's head, which immediately turned a large bruise.
"ah……"
Just when he was about to give up, he heard Ying Zheng's furious voice: "What else do you have to say?!"
Hearing this, Hu Hai picked up the scroll on the ground in confusion, originally just looking at it casually.
When he saw the above content, the expression on his face was very wonderful. Then he knelt on the ground in fear and did not dare to raise his head. His whole body was shaking like chaff, and the scroll was thrown to the ground.
He said in a trembling voice: "Father...son, minister...son, I know I was wrong..."
While speaking, tears flowed from Hu Hai's eyes.
"Father..."
These words were a disguised admission of his crime.
Ying Zheng looked at him with disappointment. He originally thought that Hu Hai might have been bewitched by a traitor, but it was obviously his own doing, and he did not say anything about other people's affairs in his words.
"Treason!"
"Asshole!"
"The majestic prince of the Qin Dynasty, you actually abandoned the Qin Dynasty!"
Seeing that what he had done was exposed, Hu Hai was already confused. He was only thinking about how to save his life and let his father calm down. He couldn't think of anything else.
He kneeled and crawled forward a few steps, feeling very embarrassed.
He didn't care that there were others behind him, and cried loudly: "Father, I know clearly, but my son is also temporarily obsessed with things."
"I have no ill intentions, but my eldest brother is too good. I am worried that my father only likes my eldest brother and cannot see him."
"Father, I wholeheartedly serve the good of the Qin Dynasty. I never thought it would lead to this kind of result."
This cry did not make Ying Zheng less angry, but instead made him angrier.
Such a jealous person is not worthy of being a prince at all.
He pointed at Hu Hai and shouted angrily: "How stupid! Extremely stupid!"
"Come here, confine Hu Hai to the house! No one can release him without my order!"
Zhao Gao stood there, his eyes fell on Hu Hai, and he breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as Hu Hai is locked up, he will be safe.
But after all, I am Hu Hai's teacher. If I say nothing, I am afraid that it will arouse His Majesty's suspicion.
He bowed and saluted Ying Zheng and said, "Your Majesty..."
As soon as he said two words, Ying Zheng stopped him with a look.
"No one is allowed to plead!"
"Otherwise, we will be punished with the same crime!"
After speaking, Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si and Feng Xiao who were kneeling on the ground, waved his hands and said, "Everyone, please step aside."
After coming out of Xianyang Palace, Feng Xiao walked to Li Si and asked in a low voice: "Prime Minister, is this matter too strange?"
No wonder he thought so. This matter was finally traced to Hu Hai, which he didn't expect at all.
Moreover, the recruitment of those people was too smooth, as if the results were deliberately placed in front of him.
But there was no problem at all in the end, and Hu Hai confessed his crime simply.
He couldn't think of anything wrong. If it wasn't handled properly, their lives might be in danger.
"In the Prime Minister's opinion, how should this matter be handled?"
When it comes to royal secrets, Li Si doesn't really want to get involved in such matters.
And depending on His Majesty's wishes, this matter must not be publicized, otherwise the two of them and those in Tingwei's Mansion may be in danger today.
"Go to Xianyang Prison. Since this matter happened because of Ran Fang, he should inform him."
"Besides, this matter cannot be hidden from Mr. Fusu. He still needs to make peace with it."
Feng Xiao nodded. Who doesn't know that Mr. Fusu is the most merciful person? When he saw Hu Hai imprisoned, he would not stand idly by.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for reminding me."
…
Xianyang Prison.
Ran Fang and Fu Su were at ease. They didn't look like they were in jail at all. One was playing with peonies and the other was doing radio gymnastics.
Seeing Feng Xiao coming, the two of them took a moment to rest.
As soon as he sat down, Feng Xiao told what happened in Tingwei's Mansion, as well as His Majesty's final decision.
After he finished speaking, Fusu had a strange look on his face. He didn't understand why Hu Hai would do such a thing?
Although this younger brother has never been close to him, he also thinks that he knows Hu Hai very well and does not seem like someone who can do such a thing.
"Master Feng, are you serious about this?"
"That can still be false," Feng Xiao sat opposite Ran Fang, with a very serious expression on his face. He leaned forward and said in a low voice, "I heard that His Majesty was so angry that he immediately grounded Young Master Hu Hai. !”
"He also said that anyone who intercedes for him will be punished with the same crime."
"It seems that His Majesty is really angry this time."
Fusu was helpless. No one could release him unless His Majesty agreed.
At this point, we can only wait for His Majesty to calm down before Hu Hai can be released from prison.
But he didn't mean to plead for Hu Hai. After all, he had been with Ran Fang for a long time now, and he knew how to ask the reason first for some things.
"Why would Hu Hai do such a thing?"
Ran Fang didn't have too many surprises. He glanced at Fusu and then said: "The bustling world is all for profit; the bustle in the world is for profit."
"To put it bluntly, it's just for a profit."
After finishing speaking, he paused for a moment, and then continued: "However, Hu Hai's brain cannot think of such a thorough plan."
"There will be someone behind the scenes who will make suggestions for Hu Hai."
Ran Fang said the last four words so categorically that both Fu Su and Feng Xiao were stunned.
Feng Xiao hesitated for a moment, and he said hesitantly: "Isn't this impossible?"
"I was also present when the thieves were being interrogated. They made it very clear that they were the masterminds of Young Master Hu Hai. They were all taking orders from Young Master Hu Hai."
"If there were others, those people would have already accounted for it."
The expression on Ran Fang's face seemed to be a smile but not a smile. He glanced at Fusu with a vague look in his eyes, and then looked away again.
He was sitting there, looking lazy.
"Hu Hai is a prince. Telling the story about the refined salt will not do him any good, and the profits will not reach his hands."
"Besides, Hu Hai has been in the palace for many years, how could he know those salt merchants?"
"This..." Feng Xiao didn't speak. He really hadn't thought about this problem.
When everyone saw the assassin's confession, their first reaction was shock, and then they went to find His Majesty.
No one expected that Hu Hai immediately recognized the matter and recruited him without any interrogation.
His Majesty issued an order to ban him, and no one dared to go to trial. In this way, Hu Hai's matter was settled.
"In your opinion, Mr. Hu Hai was wrongly accused?"
"But who can make Mr. Hu Hai willingly convict him?"
Not only Feng Xiao couldn't think of it, but even Fusu couldn't think of it.
Who else in this court could be worthy of Hu Hai risking his life to protect him?
Seeing that neither of them could figure it out, Ran Fang sighed and said, "Although I don't know Hu Hai, but in that situation, his first reaction must be to admit his mistake."
"No matter how much His Majesty found out, in his rage at that time, since it was found out that he assassinated those people, even if it was not done by him, it was still done by him."
Hearing this, Feng Xiao thought for a moment and had to say that Ran Fang saw things very clearly.
Even his understanding of Ying Zheng is the most thorough.
"In my opinion, sir, who else is behind Young Master Hu Hai?"
Fusu sat there, poured a glass of water for Ran Fang, and waited for Ran Fang's answer.
Ran Fang glanced at the two of them, and after a moment he said, "He must be someone who can make Hu Hai obedient and understand Hu Hai very well."
"Otherwise, he is not sure, and Hu Hai will definitely not betray him."
