Chapter 589 Heavenly Eye System

"A gem..."

Inside the Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng, Fusu, Zhang Liang, and a group of important officials were all present, their eyes fixed on the "black gem" in the black box with gilded patterns on the table, their eyes filled with anticipation.

Ying Zheng slowly took the "gem" out of the box, and everyone's eyes followed.

A crystal-clear black.

So, what's the use?

Ying Zheng looked at Fusu, who shrugged. "I don't know either. Maybe it's just an ornament."

"Won't."

Ying Zheng spoke concisely, then looked down at the letter in the box again, remained silent for a while, and then had the eunuch beside him pass it on to the ministers.

The letter reached Li Si first, and the other ministers eagerly moved forward, whispering, "What does it say?"

"..." Li Si looked at the flamboyant words on it and, having learned the same silence as His Majesty, handed the letter to the others, "You can take a look."

Then, the entire Zhangtai Hall fell silent.

Yi Xiaochuan, a passive reading machine.

"Judging from the message, this gemstone is clearly of great significance."

Li Si hesitated before replying, speaking cautiously and not revealing to Fusu any trace that he knew about this person beforehand.

However, the Qin Dynasty is so vast, and the eldest son is often away on trips; no one can say for sure whether he knows anything about the Heavenly Curtain. But before His Majesty speaks, no one will be the one to break the balance.

Fusu took the gemstone from Ying Zheng's hand and casually tossed it up and down, causing the hearts of the ministers to rise and fall with it, almost leaping out of their throats.

"It feels very light in my hand, the material is like jade but not quite, and as for its hardness, I cut it with a sword, and it didn't change much..."

Upon hearing this, the breathing in the hall became rapid, and they even slashed with swords!

But Fusu hadn't finished speaking yet. "It's been burned by fire and soaked in water, but it's no different. It looks like a hard, clear black gemstone."

Alright, now everyone can finally breathe a sigh of relief, or rather, feel relieved.

Good news: the eldest son did not damage the "gemstone," at least not to the naked eye at present;

Bad news, even after all this, we still can't find its use. Could it really be a gem?

At this moment, Han Fei hesitated before stepping forward.

"Your Majesty, Eldest Prince, in my humble opinion, perhaps the Eldest Prince could... try a drop of blood?"

Upon hearing this, everyone's eyes widened slightly. Han Fei was still the same Han Fei, just as brave as ever!

"Blood oath?!"

Compared to the others, Fusu was much more excited. As he spoke, he took out an exquisite little dagger, which startled Ying Zheng, who stopped him and snatched the dagger from him, his expression slightly darkening.

Everyone was terrified, but Fusu showed no fear, looking at him pleadingly: "Father—"

Ying Zheng closed his eyes for a long time before ordering, "Summon the Imperial Physician to draw blood with a needle."

"It's just a drop of blood..."

Fusu muttered under his breath, but Ying Zheng ignored him. The others breathed a sigh of relief. Han Fei retreated back into the ranks, his back soaked with sweat. He hadn't expected the eldest son to be so reckless! He was much braver than him!

Even though it was just a "trivial matter" of drawing a drop of blood, the summoned imperial physician broke out in a sweat. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, he held a silver needle, trying his best to keep his hand steady, and gently pricked the young master's middle finger.

Seeing the blood beads emerge, the Imperial Physician felt no relief at having accomplished his task; instead, he felt a lingering fear that he might be doomed.

Fortunately, His Majesty said nothing, and everyone's gaze followed Fusu's movements away. Only then did the Imperial Physician feel as if he had returned to the mortal realm.

Fusu pressed his finger on the "gem," and unexpectedly yet not entirely unexpectedly, the blood bead was quickly absorbed. Then the "gem" emitted a pale golden light and transformed into the shape of a bracelet, which was wrapped around Fusu's right wrist.

At the same time, a golden beam of light shone directly on Fusu's brow. Before Ying Zheng could stop it, Fusu closed his eyes.

"The imperial physician..."

"Father!"

Fusu quickly opened his eyes and grasped Ying Zheng's arm, his soothing gesture unable to conceal the excitement in his eyes.

Seeing this, Ying Zheng calmed down and asked composedly, "What is it?"

"Sky Eye System!"

"Sky Eye? System?"

Seeing the puzzled looks on everyone's faces, Fusu carefully considered his words, then explained with barely concealed excitement, "You can understand it as real-time monitoring of the development of all aspects of the Qin Dynasty, seeing both its strengths and weaknesses..."

Upon hearing this, everyone couldn't help but show their delight, but Fusu hadn't finished speaking yet.

"That's not the point!" Fusu declared firmly, piquing everyone's curiosity. "The point is, it can simulate drills! Just like real scenarios, it can simulate various types of opponents, including military operations, natural disaster response, and so on. It's a large-scale multiplayer game!"

Clearly, Fusu's excitement lay in the game's attributes, while the rest of the group, including Ying Zheng, whose breathing had slowed, were focused on the natural disaster simulation.

To this day, they still don't know what happened to the world that led to its complete destruction, with only Fusu surviving.

Tianmu did not reveal this, and the current eldest son has no memory. After the world was unified, a lot of effort was spent investigating, but no problem was found. This has always been a hidden worry in everyone's hearts.

Having ways to increase strength, but without a clear goal, growth is obviously slow. The Qin Dynasty today faces this problem: it lacks direction; its strength in various aspects is increasing, but it is clearly beginning to stagnate.

Ying Zheng and his ministers exchanged glances, their understanding unspoken. Sure enough, the Qin Grand Tutor, so protective of his own and possessing almost supernatural wisdom, had considered every aspect of his disciple Fusu's future.

As for Yi Xiaochuan, to use his "trendy" words, he's just a deliveryman.

With everyone on the same page, and having learned the purpose of the so-called "Heavenly Eye System," the entire Qin Dynasty mobilized once again. Following the nationwide competition, a nationwide drill began—

The difference this time was that Fusu actively participated. Partly because he was the system's controller, and partly, of course, because it was fun.

Fusu never hid this fact, and everyone else knew it too.

But it's rare for the eldest son to get moving, and whatever the reason, it's certainly a good thing.

Whenever Ying Zheng saw his ministers acting like this, he would feel somewhat helpless. Fortunately, he was strict with Fusu's education, otherwise they would have spoiled him rotten!

As for His Majesty's idea, the court officials could only say that whatever makes His Majesty happy is fine. After all, when it comes to indulgence, His Majesty is second to none.

You agree, don't you? The First Emperor, who took the initiative to take over the main control of the eldest son and allowed him to design all sorts of challenging training scenarios.
