"Teacher, what happened?"
When Hu Hai entered the pavilion, he couldn't help but ask Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao sighed and said seriously: "Master, you can't just immerse yourself in studying, you should think about your own future!"
"Future?" Hu Hai blinked and looked at Zhao Gao with some confusion: "What future?"
Zhao Gao sneered in his heart, but said calmly: "Young Master, are you willing to just be a young prince?"
With his insight, how could he not see Hu Hai's thoughts.
Hu Hai has long been interested in that position, otherwise he wouldn't have been tit for tat with Fusu at such a young age.
There were more than a dozen sons of the First Emperor, but only a few could catch his eye. Hu Hai was second only to Fusu and the most valued prince by the First Emperor. He naturally had this ambition.
"To be honest with the teacher, Hu Hai hopes to go further, but Hu Hai is still young. Apart from studying, he really doesn't know how to please his father."
Seeing that his ambition was seen through by Zhao Gao, Hu Hai was not embarrassed, but admitted it openly.
Zhao Gao heard this and smiled knowingly: "Young prince, there is no need to worry. As long as your goals are consistent with mine, I will fully assist you."
"Thank you teacher!"
Hu Hai was overjoyed and immediately saluted Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao waved his hand and said sternly: "Young prince, please remember that in the future, you must not be so respectful to me in front of outsiders, especially in front of His Majesty!"
"Ah? Why is this?"
"There is no reason! Anyway, you need to know that outside I am a slave, but inside I am your teacher!"
"But……"
Hu Hai opened his mouth to ask Zhao Gao more questions, but saw Zhao Gao's face was serious and he didn't seem to be joking with him.
After a little hesitation, he nodded and said to Zhao Gao: "Hu Hai knows it!"
"The young prince is very talented and will understand how hard he has worked for his teacher in the future!" Zhao Gao smiled.
Hu Hai tilted his head and said with a slight blush: "You all say that Hu Hai is talented, but Hu Hai knows in his heart that compared to Hu Hai's thirteenth brother, Hu Hai's intelligence is nothing!"
"Young prince, there is no need to belittle yourself, you are truly talented!"
Zhao Gao shook his head and said with a smile: "If you think Young Master Hao is smart, it's because you don't understand what smartness is. Real smartness means that people can't see that he is smart!"
"In my opinion, Master Hao is not only unsmart, but also very stupid. Sooner or later, he will pay for his stupidity!"
"ah?"
Hu Hai's eyes widened and he looked at Zhao Gao with disbelief: "Teacher said my thirteenth brother is a fool?"
"Exactly!"
"Hahaha!"
Hu Hai smiled happily.
As everyone knows, in Zhao Gao's eyes, he is actually a fool.
It's just that he, a fool, is easier to use for his own purposes than Zhao Hao, a fool.
"Okay, let's get down to business now!"
Zhao Gao raised his hand to stop Hu Hai to prevent him from getting carried away.
Hu Hai obeyed and suppressed his laughter, but Zhao Gao said again: "Although Young Master Hao is an idiot, Your Majesty has been paying close attention to him recently. Do you know where Your Majesty has gone?"
"Where are you going?" Hu Hai asked curiously.
Zhao Gao glanced at him and sighed: "Your Majesty has gone to the western suburbs of the city to find Young Master Hao!"
"Is there anything wrong with this, Teacher?"
"If it were normal times, there would be nothing wrong with it, but now is an extraordinary time!"
"What kind of emergency, Hu Hai doesn't understand, please ask the teacher to clarify!" Hu Hai asked, scratching his head and ears.
Zhao Gao sighed and said worriedly: "Both Marquis Lu are doctors of the Doctor's Palace. They have recently encouraged everyone in the Doctor's Palace to rebel against Qin. Lu Sheng has even colluded with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, which has aroused His Majesty's anger! He ordered the Confucian scholars and alchemists to be arrested and killed according to law!"
"What's the point? A group of people who broke the law should have been dealt with according to the law. This Confucian broke the law many times, and it was easier for them to be trapped and killed!" Hu Hai said with a look of disdain.
"If the eldest son thinks like you, he won't stubbornly go to your majesty to plead for mercy, causing his majesty to relapse!"
"ah?"
Hu Hai was startled and asked quickly: "My father's old illness has relapsed? Is it serious? Have you taken any medicine?"
"Young prince, there is no need to worry!"
Zhao Gao raised his hand to signal Hu Hai to calm down, and then continued: "Your Majesty has taken the elixir and his condition is under control. There is no serious problem for now!"
"Really! Why is my eldest brother so pedantic? He just killed some Confucian scholars. Do you have to make your father angry?"
Hu Hai said with a hint of indignation.
"Yes! Who would have thought that the eldest son would be like this!"
Zhao Gao shook his head helplessly, and then as if he thought of something, he worriedly said: "The key is that if the eldest son angers your majesty, it will be extremely detrimental to the young prince!"
"Why is this?"
Hu Hai was stunned, a little confused.
Zhao Gao explained: "Young prince, try to think about it. In the past, the princes your Majesty favored were you and the eldest son. If the eldest son displeased your majesty, who would your majesty go to?"
"Find me?"
"Exactly!"
Zhao Gao nodded and asked, "What about now?"
"Now?"
Hu Hai frowned, pondered for a moment, and then asked tentatively: "The teacher is talking about Hu Hai's thirteenth brother?"
"That's right! Your Majesty didn't come to see the Young Prince, but went to see Young Master Hao. What does this mean? Doesn't the Young Prince understand?"
"this……"
Hu Hai reacted, his heart trembled, he was suddenly startled, and said in surprise: "Teacher, is it possible that the thirteenth brother Hu Hai will be appointed as the prince by my father? This... how is this possible? He clearly said that he will not fight for it!"
"Is the young prince too fanciful?"
Zhao Gao smiled bitterly and shook his head: "How can you not want to fight for the position of prince? Your Majesty gave it to you! You can give it to whomever your Majesty wants. Do you think you can really win it when your Majesty encourages you to fight for it?"
"how so!"
Hu Hai couldn't believe this result, and he couldn't accept it for a while.
Zhao Gao was not much better.
Ever since he learned that the First Emperor was vomiting blood due to Fusu's anger and immediately went to Zhao Hao, he began to feel worried.
If Yan Le hadn't been forced to break his arm by Zhao Hao, he would have thought it was a good thing. After all, there were eggs in both baskets.
But Yan Le was forced to break his arm by Zhao Hao, and he felt that Zhao Hao might not take him seriously at all.
In this way, he could only place his hope on Hu Hai.
But whether Hu Hai can defeat Zhao Hao depends on whether Hu Hai obeys his advice.
But Hu Hai said with a sad face: "Teacher, what should we do? The thirteenth brother is more difficult to deal with than the eldest brother, Hu Hai can't fight him!"
Zhao Gao felt a little funny in his heart, but asked calmly: "Do you really want to sit in that position?"
"Teacher, do you think Hu Hai is not worthy?" Hu Hai asked back.
"Um?"
Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, then laughed loudly: "If the young prince is not worthy, then no one is worthy!"
"That……"
"Gongzi Hao is indeed more difficult to deal with than we thought, but it is not impossible!"
"Oh? What can the teacher do?"
Hu Hai's eyes were bright and he looked at Zhao Gao expectantly.
Zhao Gao smiled and said: "Young Prince, think about it, if Young Master Hao doesn't discuss politics in the Doctor's Palace and makes a big splash, will Your Majesty notice him?"
"Won't!"
Hu Hai said flatly: "Before this, Hu Hai didn't even know there was this brother!"
"It is precisely because of this that we have a chance to bring him down!"
Zhao Gao showed an 'unfathomable' smile and looked at Hu Hai.
Hu Hai blinked and bowed respectfully to him: "Hu Hai doesn't understand, so please ask the teacher for advice!"
"Young Prince, don't worry!"
Old God Zhao Gao picked up the tea next to him, took a sip, and then said quietly: "How could an unknown prince with no knowledge or skills suddenly become enlightened? Know so many things that ordinary people can't imagine? This Is it reasonable?”
Hu Hai thought for a while, shook his head and said: "Unreasonable!"
"So, if something goes wrong, there must be a monster!"
"What the teacher means is..."
Hu Hai's voice trembled, two flames ignited in his eyes, and he asked Zhao Gao in a low voice.
Zhao Gao narrowed his eyes slightly, blew tea and said softly: "Alchemists pursue immortality and seek immortality. If immortals can live forever, can demons harm people and the country?"
"ah?"
Hu Hai was startled and looked at Zhao Gao with astonishment: "Teacher wants to turn Hu Hai's thirteenth brother into a demon..."
"snort!"
Zhao Gao snorted coldly and said noncommittally: "Your Majesty pursues immortality and becomes an immortal, so naturally he must kill demons!"
"hiss……"
Hu Hai couldn't help but take a breath when he heard Zhao Gao's words.
At this moment, a report suddenly came from outside the door.
"Young prince, the doctor ordered Meng Yi to see you!"
"Meng Yi?"
Hu Hai was stunned and couldn't help but look up at Zhao Gao.
Zhao Gao narrowed his eyes slightly, and for a moment, shook his head to indicate that Hu Hai was gone.
Hu Hai nodded in agreement and immediately shouted out the door: "Didn't I tell you? I'm not feeling well. I'm going to rest. I won't see anyone!"
"But young master..."
"Get out of here!"
Seeing that the palace attendant outside the door was a little confused, Hu Hai immediately shouted angrily.
However, as soon as he finished speaking, the door was forced open.
"Bold Mengyi!"
Hu Hai didn't expect that Meng Yi would lead people to forcefully break into his dormitory, and he couldn't help being frightened and angry.
Meng Yi glanced at him with a serious look on his face, ignored him, turned his gaze to Zhao Gao, and said solemnly: "Ling Zhao, please come with us!"
"What does the doctor mean by this?" Zhao Gao frowned and looked at Meng Yi calmly.
"what for?"
Meng Yi sneered: "Of course I am following His Majesty's orders to capture the key criminal!"
"What?!"
Zhao Gao was suddenly startled, his face full of disbelief.
"Take it away!" Meng Yi was too lazy to talk nonsense to him and waved directly behind him.
"No - I want to see your Majesty! I want to see your Majesty!"
Zhao Gao was so frightened that he screamed.
Hu Hai on the side was stunned. What was going on? He only conspired with his teacher, how come his father discovered it? ! This is too weird!
Are there really monsters in the world? !
