Qin Heng couldn't help but nodded slightly, Li Ru's words were indeed reasonable.
In the competition to seize the throne, he is normally a third-tier candidate, and the possibility of directly inheriting the throne is extremely slim.
Unless, as Cheng Yu said, all the other princes met with something unexpected, he would have a chance.
But then, he will become the target of public criticism and become the target of everyone's suspicion!
Let me ask, who in the world would dare to help such a person?
However, no matter what, he must fight for reserves.
He didn't want to be bullied again one day, let alone be crushed to death like an ant.
"Emperors are the most ruthless. Because of this, what they long for most in their hearts is family affection."
"So my lord, you must keep three points in mind." Li Ru said slowly with a smile on his face.
"What about three o'clock?"
Qin Heng asked.
Li Ru did not show off and answered directly: "First of all, continue to maintain the emperor's favor and strive to retain an heir."
"Secondly, keep a low profile, accumulate power secretly, and wait for the opportunity."
"Finally, the rebel princes will first remove the prince from the position of crown prince."
Qin Heng's eyes lit up.
These three points are indeed crucial, and none of them can exist without them.
The most important thing is to leave an heir. Only by retaining the title of prince can you be qualified to compete for the heir apparent;
If the heir is taken away and moved to a fief, he will no longer have the status of a prince, will have no chance of becoming the heir apparent, and will be under house arrest in the fief for the rest of his life.
Therefore, we must gain the emperor's favor and strive to stay in the capital of Qin.
The second point is also the most important point. If you have no power and no one in the court to support you, trying to seize the throne is probably just empty talk.
As for the last point mentioned by Li Ru, it is indeed the first problem that must be faced in the future when seizing the direct line.
Only when the prince loses his crown, the princes have a chance.
He could take advantage of the injury and slowly move to the dark side.
Then, act in secret and reap the rewards.
It has to be said that these people have really vicious vision, and the strategies they come up with are straight to the point.
He is worthy of being an eternal poisoner!
In such a short time, you can see through everything.
Thinking of this, he admired several people in his heart.
"Thank you gentlemen for their guidance. Qin Heng will keep it in mind and will definitely live up to their teachings in the future."
Qin Heng clasped his fists, stood up, and bowed sincerely.
"No, my lord, I am one and the same. These things are all part of my duty."
Several people stood up quickly and helped Qin Heng up with excited expressions.
Let me ask, this counselor does not like the monarch who treats the virtuous and virtuous subordinates in this way.
A scholar dies for a confidant!
What's more, they are now one body.
Qin Heng smiled gratefully and said, "I will be able to help a few gentlemen from now on."
After that, he sat down and motioned for several people to sit down.
Everyone took their seats.
Jia Xu smiled and said slowly: "After the lord wakes up, he can accidentally tell about the assassin, and then pretend to be weak, so that the emperor will feel affection for the lord."
"You must know that people in this world often sympathize with the weak."
Qin Heng narrowed his eyes and nodded: "Understood."
Isn't it just acting?
The most indispensable thing for modern people is acting skills.
"There is one more thing that my lord needs to resolve as soon as possible."
Li Ru's expression suddenly became serious.
"What's the matter?"
"The lord must find a way to move out of the palace as soon as possible. There are too many intrigues in the palace and the lord has little strength to avoid accidents."
"Secondly, after leaving the palace, the lord will have the opportunity to secretly accumulate power."
Li Ru subconsciously touched his beard, and then put down his hand in embarrassment.
Qin Heng's face also became heavy.
According to what he remembered from his memory, although his mother was the daughter of the imperial censor, she was also the fourth lady.
But compared with today's queen, it is still far behind.
If he were in the palace, everything would really be inconvenient.
Moreover, the assassination that happened a few days ago may happen again in the future.
"I see."
He nodded in response, thinking about how to move out of the palace.
At this time, Cheng Yu's eyes flashed with depth, and he spoke slowly, with a hint of unspeakable meaning in his tone.
"My lord, if you communicate more with Mrs. Liu, it might be smoother."
Qin Heng was stunned for a moment, then a flash of realization flashed in his eyes and he nodded. He understood Cheng Yu's hint that if he could get the support of his mother and concubine, everything would go smoother.
After all, sometimes, the role of pillow wind cannot be underestimated.
"My lord, it's time for you to go back. Your Majesty is here just in time."
Chen Ping looked out the door and said with a smile.
Qin Heng was stunned for a moment, and then looked outside the door.
However, the courtyard was still where the eyes were looking.
I'm afraid, only a few of them can see outside.
Qin Heng's heart moved, he stood up and clasped his fists with his hands: "I've got some work, so I'll go out first."
"Farewell, my lord."
The four of them stood up and bowed respectfully.
Qin Heng nodded and then walked out of the hall.
As he passed the door, he paused slightly.
Then, without closing the door, he continued to walk out.
These people have been in this place for thousands of years, and perhaps they are also eager to see the outside world.
When Chen Ping and the other four people behind him saw this scene, they all showed a smile on their faces.
At the same time, in the room, Qin Huang held Liu Yu's hand tightly, his eyes full of concern and love: "Yu'er, you must also pay attention to your body. Don't let Heng'er recover before he recovers." Exhausted."
Liu Yu had tears in his eyes and a sad look on his face: "Your Majesty, how could Heng'er's fate be so bad, and he has to suffer such hardships at such a young age."
Emperor Qin sighed, his heart filled with helplessness. He loved this son from the bottom of his heart, and it was difficult for him to accept everything that happened.
"Father...father, emperor, mother, concubine." Suddenly, Qin Heng's voice murmured from the bed.
Their hearts tightened and they immediately turned their heads to look. Qin Heng's eyes were closed tightly, and his face was full of pain.
"Heng'er, Father is here..." Emperor Qin's voice was trembling.
"Heng'er, what's wrong with you? Wuwu..." Liu Yu burst into tears, her voice choked with sobs.
Qin Heng's eyelids trembled slightly and he slowly opened his eyes. In addition to the face of his mother and concubine, there was also a middle-aged man wearing a black dragon robe and tassels on his head - his father.
Looking at this man with a majestic face and noble temperament, Qin Heng suddenly felt a strong sense of intimacy in his heart.
It seems that this is a blood connection.
"Heng'er, how are you?"
The two looked at Qin Heng excitedly.
"My son is fine."
Qin Heng said weakly with a forced smile on his face.
"As long as it's okay, it's okay, as long as it's okay, hurry up, call the doctor quickly."
When Emperor Qin saw his son calling out to him in a coma, he suddenly couldn't help himself.
"My son, I'm so afraid that I'll never see you again." Qin Heng had a look of fear on his face.
"Silly boy, don't talk nonsense. No one can take you away from your father." Emperor Qin sat on the edge of the bed, touched his head and said softly.
Although the voice is small, it is very domineering.
"It makes my father and mother worried."
Qin Heng showed a trace of shame on his face.
"It's okay, it's all over."
Upon hearing this, Emperor Qin quickly comforted him.
"Yes, Heng'er, as long as you are fine."
Liu Yu cried with joy and stood beside him and said.
She was really afraid that her son would not be able to accept the fact that he was disabled like before.
"Well, I understand."
Qin Heng nodded and showed a forced smile.
"Be careful what you do in the future. Your mother and concubine will be frightened this time."
Qin Huang patted his hand and said softly.
