There is no need to explain the tacit understanding between Hu Hai and Zhao Gao. After hearing what Zhao Gao said, Hu Hai understood it immediately.
He then echoed: "Sir, Hai has indeed been unwell recently, so he slacked off today, but Hai promises there won't be a next time."
Everyone knows that Ying Zheng himself is a hardworking person. He also requires his close ministers and several princes to work hard.
Today, Hu Hai was lazy and was caught by Qin Shi Huang. How can we make Hu Hai calm down?
Ying Zheng stared at Hu Hai coldly and waved to the imperial physician behind him to come forward.
"Don't worry, I'm certainly concerned about your health. Didn't I bring the doctor for you?"
Hu Hai's body went limp and he almost fell to the ground.
But he knew he couldn't panic, so he pretended to be calm and handed his wrist to the doctor.
Out of Qin Shihuang's sight, he gave the imperial physician a warning look.
Unfortunately, the imperial physician did not see him.
Now no one can see Qin Shihuang's intention. I'm afraid Prince Hu Hai has made some big mistake.
Your Majesty is going to take action against him.
Not to mention in front of Qin Shi Huang, the imperial physician didn't dare to tell lies.
Even if Qin Shihuang was not here at the moment, he would not dare to tell lies.
After taking the pulse, the imperial physician withdrew his hand, stood up and bowed to Ying Zheng.
"Your Majesty, the young master's pulse is smooth and rhythmic, and he doesn't look sick."
The imperial physician's words completely revealed the truth behind Hu Hai's illness.
Hu Hai collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down his face.
"grown ups....."
At this time, he did not realize the true seriousness of the situation. After all, Qin Shihuang had always doted on him.
He just thought he might be punished.
Crying a little may make the punishment go away.
Ying Zheng stared at Hu Hai with deep eyes and suddenly said, "Hu Hai, I am here today to review your recent studies."
Hu Hai raised his head blankly and looked at Qin Shi Huang.
He didn't understand why the topic of checking homework suddenly came up again.
Ying Zheng didn't give him any extra time to think and said directly: "Let's get started."
In the past, Qin Shi Huang did not care about the studies of these young masters, and he learned everything from the teachers.
Zhao Gao always spoke well of Hu Hai in front of Qin Shi Huang.
Hu Hai was portrayed as an ambitious and hardworking young man.
In fact, how could Hu Hai study? He was obsessed with playing every day.
Now Ying Zheng's sudden attack made it impossible for him to answer.
Hu Hai stuttered and squeezed out a few words from his mouth: "Guanguan...Zhu..."
The result of having an empty head is that I can even get two words wrong in the four words "Guan Guan Ju Jiu".
Ying Zheng's eyes were cold, but the corners of his lips curled up slightly. His voice was filled with emotion: "Oh? Are you talking about Guan Guan Jujiu?"
Hu Hai nodded in agreement: "Yes, yes, the orioles are singing."
Ying Zheng stared at him intently, making Hu Hai feel cold all over and his mind blank.
He lowered his upward curve, his expression darkening as he angrily said, "Well, well, well, you're such a Guan Guan Zhi Zhou! You can't even recite such a lowly poem. What else can you do?!"
"Someone come!"
"Prince Hu Hai, you are ignorant and unlearned, and you have committed treason and committed crimes. I will punish you with ten feet of white silk!"
Ying Zheng's sharp voice reached the ears of everyone present.
Hu Hai and Zhao Gao were both dumbfounded.
Who could have expected that just because of these things, Qin Shi Huang would sentence his most beloved young prince to death.
Before coming here, Qin Shihuang had been thinking about whether Hu Hai could save the country.
But when he saw that Hu Hai was ignorant and incompetent, he was completely disappointed.
I made up my mind and made the final decision.
Hu Hai must die!
Once Hu Hai died, how could Zhao Gao use the emperor to control the princes?
Ying Zheng was not yet ready to kill Zhao Gao.
The Qin Dynasty is short of people now. Zhao Gao is useful and we still need him for the time being.
And Hu Hai....
Such trash must be killed now.
The only words left in Hu Hai's mind were "a foot of white silk".
He was slow to react.
His own adult was going to take his life just because he couldn't answer his homework and pretended to be sick?
It was not until Qin Shihuang turned around to leave that he finally came to his senses.
He crawled forward on his knees, hugged Qin Shi Huang's thighs and begged for mercy.
Ying Zheng ruthlessly threw his hand away and strode away.
After a cup of tea, the eunuch reported the news of Hu Hai's death to Qin Shihuang.
Ying Zheng rubbed his aching brow and said calmly, "Bury him."
After the eunuchs left, Ying Zheng stared at the sky outside the palace with a dull look in his eyes.
........
At this point, the second emperor of Qin, Prince Hu Hai, died.
.......
The news of Hu Hai's death was not known to everyone, but everyone who should know it knew it.
When Li Si and others stood in the side hall again, everyone was a little nervous.
Fusu stepped forward and was about to say something when Qin Shihuang glared back at him.
Fusu: ....
Qin Shihuang glared at Fusu several more times, completely suppressing Fusu's desire to nag.
He then signaled the eunuchs to bring the things up.
In the side hall today, there are still the same people as yesterday, except that Zhao Gao is no longer there.
Zhao Gao was demoted by the First Emperor and was put in charge of the salt road.
At this time, Zhao Gao's only thought was to quickly open the channel to the salt market, make political achievements, and regain the trust of the First Emperor.
The people here saw the new sacks and prepared themselves mentally.
I wonder what kind of surprise His Majesty will bring them today.
Ying Zheng was in no mood to keep people in suspense, so he asked Fusu to go up and open the bag.
Fusu: ....
"yes."
Fusu obediently opened the several sacks in front of him.
The first bag contains notebooks, the second bag contains gel pens, the third bag contains soap, and the fourth bag contains sweet potatoes and other crops.
Ying Zheng introduced them to everyone one by one in order.
Just a notebook was enough to make everyone excited.
After hearing how to use the pen and soap, it became difficult for them to remain calm.
Even Fusu, who was always steady, was no exception.
Fusu's hands were shaking as he held the notebook and pen.
"My Lord, is what you say true?"
Ying Zheng glared at Fusu unhappily.
When he thought about how Fusu died, he got angry and now he really couldn't bear to look at Fusu.
"Of course, you'll know if you try it yourself."
Fusu just nodded stupidly, and Li Si was getting very anxious.
He quickly saluted and asked Qin Shi Huang, "Your Majesty, is it possible to give this a try?"
Qin Shihuang glared at Li Si again in annoyance.
He couldn't stand Li Si now, although he knew rationally why Li Si made that choice.
But emotionally, he could not accept Li Si's behavior.
"If you want to try, then try. Should I chop off your hand or something? Don't you know how to go forward and try it yourself?"
Li Si: .....
I'm stupid.
