At this moment, he clearly saw the selfishness and ambition hidden beneath Zhao Gao's tearful appearance of loyalty and bravery.
Zhao Gao...
As the Minister of the Imperial Chariots, he was in charge of the carriages and ceremonial guards, drafted imperial edicts for him, and even kept the seals for him... What he gave him was already enough.

He was startled, but remained expressionless as he kowtowed deeply, "Gao, I obey your command! I will live up to your majesty's trust and protect Master Fusu until my death!"
