Chapter 597 Extra Chapter: Being Straightforward and Outspoken...

The eldest son's true feelings have resurfaced?

What happened to the eldest son?

Does the eldest son truly not know that everyone can hear his true feelings?

The answer to the first question was clear: they had indeed heard the eldest son's thoughts again.

Ying Zheng, the person involved, refused to recall the incident, but unfortunately, Li Si and Han Fei were also present.

After leaving the surrounding area of ​​the Meng Mansion, Fusu went straight to the Zhangtai Palace.

"I'm busy—"

Hearing Fusu's teasing and seeing his sudden appearance, Han Fei and Li Si, who were writing furiously, exchanged a glance and silently put down their pens.

Something's not right, absolutely not right. Why would the eldest son come at this time? Who's going to be in trouble?

And so, the two of them looked at their First Emperor without prior arrangement.

Ying Zheng gently turned the ring on his finger. Meeting Fu Su's overly bright gaze, he felt inexplicably guilty, but fortunately he could pretend and remain calm.

"It's nothing, I'm here to help."

With a single, decisive sentence, the First Emperor instantly earned admiring glances from two of his ministers. It had to be His Majesty; he had the eldest son firmly under his control.

Then, this time, those words didn't work.

"Sure!"

Fusu readily agreed and plopped down to sit below Ying Zheng, opposite Li Si and Han Fei. Ignoring their slightly surprised looks, he casually picked up a memorial and began to read.

One book, one book, and another.

Seeing that Li Si and Han Fei could barely hide their fear, the eldest son's composure suggests that he has something big planned!

The two exchanged a flustered look. Could this be their business? They were both so busy, weren't they?

Ying Zheng remained calm, knowing he couldn't be involved. Fusu was so filial; no one else could be tormented but his father!

"Mr. Han..."

Fusu suddenly spoke, and Li Si couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Here it comes, thank goodness it wasn't him. He tried hard to suppress the smile on his lips and secretly glanced at Han Fei, his eyes completely unable to hide the look of amusement.

Han Fei's lips tightened slightly as he tried to maintain his composure and smile, responding warily, "Young Master, what do you wish to instruct me on?"

"It's not a big deal," Fusu said calmly, with a hint of regret and disappointment. "It's just that the rare map of the territory you've been waiting for is gone. Considering how hard you've worked, why don't you ask your father to bring it out for you to admire?"

a bolt from the blue!

Han Fei's smile vanished completely, Li Si quietly clutched the jade pendant at his waist, and Ying Zheng silently straightened his back. It seemed, it seemed, that this was aimed at him.

Why aren't you smiling anymore? Are you just naturally averse to smiling?

Fusu smiled, his mouth didn't move, but his voice came out.

The three were startled. After exchanging glances, they realized that they had heard Fusu's thoughts again!

"Father?"

Fusu turned to Ying Zheng and said, "I've never seen this map model of the territory before. Why don't you let me see it too?"

[My network has expanded to include the entire territory map, but I still haven't met the main player. Is this acceptable? I haven't received any money. Is this acceptable?]

"..." The three remained silent. The key point was the second half of the sentence, wasn't it?

Unable to do anything else, Ying Zheng remained calm and took out a model of the territory map from under the table... Wait, from under the table?

Han Fei and Li Si stared wide-eyed. So, they were working downstairs while Your Majesty was playing with models upstairs?

Han Fei was especially unable to accept this, especially since he had shared Zhang Liang's affairs and had been waiting for this rare, limited-edition model for so long! Your Majesty, you have no heart!

Ying Zheng's expression remained unchanged; yes, he had no heart.

Fusu curiously approached and fiddled with it for a bit, discovering that the so-called model was also very technically sophisticated. Originally, the territories of the seven kingdoms only had border lines, without any specific details. Only by manually filling in the correct locations and related cultural customs could the mountains and rivers of each region appear, ultimately forming a complete map of the territory.

It's a wonderfully ingenious toy that combines geography and culture; he wants one too!

Send me! Send me! Send me! Don't wait for me to ask! Father, you understand, you must understand!

Ying Zheng pretended not to hear anything, silently brushed Fusu's hand away, and put the model away. "Alright, I've seen it. You can leave now if there's nothing else."

Completely ignoring Fusu's resentful gaze, Ying Zheng picked up the memorial again. This composure impressed Li Si and Han Fei; indeed, His Majesty was His Majesty. Whether slacking off or feigning seriousness, he always acted as if he were busy with important matters; no wonder they hadn't noticed before.

【I, Fusu, will return! Just wait!】

Having uttered those harsh words in his heart, Fusu truly left. The remaining three—the emperor and his ministers—looked at each other, somewhat panicked. Would Fusu (the eldest son) do something drastic?

...

The answer to the second question was quickly known throughout the Qin Dynasty.

The eldest son didn't just have something to do; he accomplished something very important!

"A contest to judge how to create something unique?"

Looking at the released announcement, everyone exchanged bewildered glances. They had agreed to communicate discreetly, so who had leaked it to the eldest son?

However, judging from this attitude, it seems that the eldest son not only doesn't mind, but is quite supportive.

Now, the "craftsmen" were eager to try. One by one, those who said "I don't know how either" or "I'll think about it" met at the registration point.

"I have a feeling that it's not that simple..."

Han Fei and Li Si exchanged glances, disbelieving that the eldest son's "Just wait and see" was merely a competition.

"Could there be a problem with the competition format?"

Both of them had some guesses and preparations, but they never expected that the eldest son would not hide anything and would come out with a big move right away.

"Indecent assault (Li)" merchandise suddenly appeared!

From everyday items like pens, pen holders, pendants, and statues, a whole set of "Indecent Assault" merchandise, accompanied by "behind-the-scenes stories," instantly made the name "Indecent Assault" resound throughout the Qin Dynasty.

Alright, now everyone knows that Li Si and Han Fei are fellow disciples who love and hate each other.

"Pah! Who's in love!"

Li Si was furious. Why was the eldest son taking his anger out on Han Fei? If he was going to punish Han Fei, why did it have to do with him?

Fortunately, Li Si didn't sulk for long. Following the "indecent assault" incident, there was the "Chopin" of Liu Bang and Xiao He, the "resolute heart towards goodness" of Zhang Liang and Meng Yi, and the "Wu worries and Zhao joys" of Zhao Tuo and Wu Rui...

In short, the eldest son didn't let any of them go, and the matchmaking was very enjoyable.

What can anyone do? They can only go along with Fusu's wishes, tacitly agree, and then work overtime in the middle of the night to make merchandise for other groups, trying to suppress their own popularity by increasing the popularity of others.

As a result of being too in sync, the Qin Dynasty gained several popular couples.

Since then, related products have developed rapidly.

Seeing this, Fusu nodded in satisfaction, "That's more like it! Spring is when all flowers bloom!"
