The first emperor didn't like cowardly people, and remembered that the eighteen sons were still young, so he didn't turn around and left.

swept the dog's tail grass on the ground, and glanced at the two insects in the clay pot whose tentacles were at once separated and tested each other.

The First Emperor was just about to lose his temper and reprimand, when the words came to his lips, he saw that Ying Huhai thought he was hidden, but in fact he glanced at the small movements behind him very obviously, and the content of the words he said changed and his tone calmed down.

"It's kind of respectful."

The First Emperor thought that the eighteenth son was looking at his teacher, so he moved slightly and let Zhao Gao out by half a body.

Unexpectedly, Ying Huhai's gaze did not pass over Zhao Gao, and when he saw that there was no one else behind his father, he couldn't help but bow his head down, muttering something in his small mouth.

The First Emperor's face turned cold.

"You haven't seen your teacher?"

The word teacher had a very high status in ancient times, and the first emperor couldn't see that the eighteen sons turned a blind eye to Zhao Gao.

Ying Huhai listened to his father's unkind tone, the fear in his heart was amplified, and he didn't dare to say anything when he stepped back, the first emperor had a very high prestige among these sons and princesses.

The more Ying Huhai was like this, the more angry the First Emperor became, and kicked over the clay pot on the ground. The clay pot rolled out of the pot, and the two small insects inside were thrown out of the jar and disappeared.

When the young eighteenth prince saw that the two insects he had worked so hard to catch were gone, he flattened his mouth aggrievedly, and his tears were about to stay.

"Don't cry!"

The first emperor was fierce eighteen sons, and the eighteen sons did not dare to shed tears when they had tears.

"I ask you."

The First Emperor's voice was cold and grand.

"What punishment should be given to those who flee from the battle?"

Ying Huhai frowned and didn't dare to look at his father, not knowing what the first emperor was talking about.

This question is not difficult, and it belongs to the basic question and answer in the Qin law.

Seeing that the eighteen sons couldn't answer this, the First Emperor knew that his son probably hadn't learned Qin Law at all. Holding back his anger, he asked Ying Huhai a few more basic questions, but Ying Huhai didn't answer any of them.

The First Emperor was really angry and grabbed the collar of the eighteenth.

"You've learned a lot from your teacher!"

Ying Huhai burst into tears, wiping her tears while crying and choking up:

"Father, father, father, yet, haven't given yet, arrange a teacher for Hu Hai."

The First Emperor's eyes flashed, and he turned his head to stare at Zhao Gao, and the look in his sharp eyes was exactly the same as when he gave the palace maid to death.

Zhao Gao said that Ying Huhai made rapid progress, but now Ying Huhai doesn't even know Zhao Gao, a teacher, which is a naked crime of bullying the king.

Zhao Gaocheng was terrified, knelt on the ground, and cried:

"Your Majesty wants the ministers to be the teachers of the eighteen princes, and Concubine Hu does not allow the ministers to enter to teach the eighteen princes, so that the eighteen princes do not know that they are their teachers. Gao didn't mean to deceive His Majesty, he was really helpless, if he didn't invite His Majesty here, the minister couldn't be the teacher of the Eighteen Princes! ”

Concubine Hu did not let Ying Huhai study and rejected the Great Qin Empire, this matter was clear to the first emperor long ago, because he had no doubts about Zhao Gao's remarks.

Throwing off his young son, the first emperor looked cold, walked back to Concubine Hu's dormitory, and violently pushed open the palace door.

"Don't let Hu Hai learn martial arts, resist the teacher I found for Hu Hai, what do you want to do?"

Without clothes, Concubine Hu, who was hidden in the brocade quilt, gritted her silver teeth, laughed happily, and didn't talk.

Her happiness is not fake, it comes from the heart. Seeing the First Emperor like this, his heart rejoiced.

The First Emperor walked to the window in three steps and two steps, his tall body blocking out all the light, and the shadow shrouded Concubine Hu's entire body.

"I'm asking you, you'd better answer quickly. You can't bear my wrath. ”

There was not much anger in the voice, only endless coldness.

Concubine Hu wanted to continue laughing like this, so she was silent and looked at the appearance of the First Emperor for a long time.

But she didn't dare.

Angered the First Emperor, she was not the only one who was unlucky. There are also those women who live in the palace of Chu in the palace of the six kings, those sisters and sisters-in-law.

"You now know he's your son?"

Concubine Hu's hatred was monstrous.

"Ah Fang doesn't educate him, do you know that he is your son? How many times have you seen Hu Hai over the years? ”

"You can't see Hu Hai anymore."

The First Emperor said coldly, turned around and walked away.

Since the mother doesn't want to raise a son, she naturally has him, the father, to raise her.

"Why!"

Concubine Hu screamed, a mixture of hatred and anger, a little hysterical.

The First Emperor turned a deaf ear, and even the rhythm of his departure did not change.

"You really think Hu Hai is your son!"

The First Emperor paused, turned around, and his eyes burst with murderous intent.

Ordinary people are extremely angry when they are cuckolded, not to mention this emperor who sits on the world.

In addition to palace maids, eunuchs, and Lang officials in the harem of Xianyang Palace.

In addition to strict compliance regulations, there is also the deadly supervision of colleagues. Once it is found that there is a Lang official who has an affair with the palace maid, a Shilang official sits in a row, and all the three clans are destroyed.

Even though he knew that this possibility was unlikely, just hearing this possibility, the First Emperor was furious.

Concubine Hu didn't seem to know that she was pulling out the scales of the First Emperor, and she seemed to be mad at the sudden order that she couldn't get along with her son.

"Hu Hai is the son of Cheng, not your son! Why don't you let me see Hu Hai! ”

The muscles of the First Emperor's face twitched, and the corners of his mouth bulged.

Ying Chengcheng is the only person other than the first emperor who can enter and leave the harem freely without any restrictions, and what Concubine Hu said is not impossible to achieve.

The First Emperor gasped and walked out of Concubine Hu's dormitory, and Zhao Gao, who was waiting at the door, buried his head and trembled, and did not dare to speak. At such a close distance, he is strong in martial arts, and it is easy for him to take all the words in his ears.

The First Emperor walked past him quickly, and Zhao Gao hurriedly followed from behind.

"Your Majesty, Chang'an Jun is cultivating the Yellow Emperor."

The first emperor, who was confused, stared at him and stopped.

Xia Wuhe personally said that Yingcheng had not broken Yuanyang, so it was impossible to give birth to Yinghu Hai with Concubine Hu.

The First Emperor had only a trace of suspicion about this matter, but after so many years, the brothers knew each other and believed that this deep affection was obviously not comparable to that of a needless Concubine Hu.

The First Emperor, who regained his composure and reoccupied the heights with his intelligence, squinted.

"Go and ask that slut who instructed him to slander him."

"This ......"

Zhao Gao's face was embarrassed, and he seemed to have a deep fear of Concubine Hu's identity.

"Unscrupulous means."

The First Emperor said in a deep voice.

Since the moment Concubine Hu said that Ying Huhai's biological father was Ying Chengcheng, no matter what the result was, the First Emperor was not ready to let him live.

"Yui."

Zhao Gao calmed his mind, and also responded in a deep voice, turned around and walked towards Concubine Hu's bedroom.

The door opened softly, and Zhao Gao's stunned shouts followed.

"Your Majesty!"

The First Emperor turned abruptly.

Where the door of Concubine Hu's bedroom is open, there is red at first sight.

The whole body is not an inch, with a small waist in Yingying, and the beautiful and moving Concubine Hu is lying peacefully on the brocade quilt, her neck is blood-red.

A Qin sword was crossed on it, and Concubine Hu killed herself.

There is no proof of death.

"Check, check for me!"

The First Emperor's voice was furious.

He has no feelings for Concubine Hu, this is a concubine for politics. But for so many years, even if you have a pet, you will pour out your feelings, let alone a woman who gave birth to a son for him.

Although the First Emperor had no intention of keeping Concubine Hu alive, he was ready to be tortured and questioned by Zhao Gao. But Concubine Hu's unexpected death still made the First Emperor hateful.

"Yui!"

Zhao Gao replied tremblingly.

Suddenly, he fell to his knees with a thud, and sobbed sideways.

"Your Majesty, Gao is guilty! High guilty! If it weren't for Gao's own opinion, Concubine Hu would not have died, and nothing would have happened today! High guilt! ”

The first emperor, who was trembling with anger, looked at Zhao Gao, who didn't know how many times he had saved his life.

"Zhao Gao, you saved my life again."

"Your Majesty......"

Zhao Gao had a runny nose and tears, raised his head, and looked very embarrassed. I wiped it with my sleeve indiscriminately, and my face was all over it, and it turned from a mess to a mess.

"This slut is willing to die in order not to tell what is behind the scenes, if you hadn't brought me here today, I wouldn't have known that my harem had already entered the villain. I'll leave this matter to you, and everything in the palace is up to you. ”

It is impossible to do this matter with great fanfare, it must be that the fewer people who know, the better, and the First Emperor did not want others to know that Concubine Hu said that she had cuckolded him.

"Yui!"

Zhao Gao kowtowed, and the corners of his mouth were hooked.

"You can find this person within three days, and if you can't find this person, I won't be able to sleep and eat!"

"Gao Zunzhi!"

The first emperor walked into the side hall with a cold face, picked up his young son Ying Huhai and took him away. His mother had just died, but he had died because of himself, and the First Emperor felt guilty for his youngest son at the moment.

Ying Huhai had lived with Orchid since he was a child, and Orchid was dead, and it was impossible for the First Emperor to let him live alone in this dormitory.

The First Emperor didn't know how to place the eighteen sons for the time being, so he would take them away first.

"Father, Hu Hai will go ......"

Ying Huhai said a little timidly, in his memory, in addition to his mother, there was only his uncle who held him.

His father had never hugged him, and he didn't dare to go up and play with his father, who looked terrible.

"Be honest."

"Oh."

The childish boy was well-behaved and timidly responded.

After Yingzheng walked a hundred steps with him in his arms, and he felt that his father was not so terrible, he said timidly:

"Where is my father going to take Hu Hai?"

"I don't know yet, where do you want to go?"

"Father, can you take Hu Hai to play with your uncle?"

“……”

Looking at the young son's eyes full of hope and expectation, the First Emperor stopped and fell silent.

Ying Chengcheng has a very high prestige among the princesses and princesses of Great Qin, and the children of the First Emperor like to find this uncle who can play with them without criticizing them and bring them delicious food.

It's not surprising that Ying Huhai can say this, it's very commonplace.

can be in the background when his biological mother just said that Ying Chengcheng was his biological father, and kept it secret.

Even if the First Emperor knew that Ying Chengcheng had not broken Yuanyang, it could not be his biological father. Even though the First Emperor had great trust in Ying Chengchan, in order to find out who was behind the scenes, Zhao Gao could make any attempt to kill his concubines.

At this moment, the First Emperor still felt a little strange in his heart.

"Who were you looking behind me just now?"

"Uncle!"

Ying Huhai said happily, just mentioning Ying Chengcheng, the child was very happy.

"Uncle hasn't come to see Hu Hai for a long time."

The childish boy muttered, a little complaining.

The First Emperor held the eighteen sons who had been replaced as if they were fake, took a step forward, and walked down in silence.

In addition to the slightest strangeness in my heart. If there is a mistake, he admits it, and the first emperor, who is good at finding reasons from himself, is also examining himself, whether he has too little time to accompany his young son.

Although he had no prejudice against Ying Huhai himself, because of his mother Hu Ji's hatred, the first emperor was reluctant to come to Concubine Hu's bedroom to find a scolding.

Since Ying Huhai was born, the number of times the First Emperor visited Ying Huhai can be counted on one hand, and Ying Huhai is the son of the first emperor who has seen the least.

[I should have cared more about Hu Hai's ......]

Concubine Hu's dormitory.

Zhao Gao entered it.

Hu Ji's death was very strange, and the cause of death was inconvenient to say, so Zhao Gao was the only one who disposed of Hu Ji's body.

Roll up the curvy body of the orchid with the brocade quilt, throw the Qin sword in the brocade quilt, and roll it up along with the corpse of the orchid.

[You won't die in vain.] ]

Zhao Gao thought in his heart.

Even if there was no one else nearby in his keen sense, Zhao Gao did not read out the words in his chest that he wanted to vent.

There are some things that can only be known to him, not even heaven and earth.

[Only when you die can Your Majesty's eyes see the eighteenth prince who has long been neglected.] Daqin's only son who has no mother, and he deserves His Majesty's favor. ]

As the youngest son of the first emperor, Ying Huhai is at the most disadvantage in terms of age. Before he could grow up, his eldest brother Ying Fusu had already grown into a qualified prince.

And because of his mother Hu Ji, in the favor of the first emperor, Ying Huhai was more than two tracks behind the other brothers when he was born.

To become such a teacher of a little transparent son, there is no way out if you want to go down step by step, only overtaking in corners.

During Hu Ji's lifetime, the first emperor ignored Ying Huhai a lot. After the death of the orchid, these neglects turn into equal or even double guilt. In the end, it turned into a preference and shrouded Ying Huhai.

Zhao Gao, who was born in the Zhao royal family, is not just a reckless man with strong martial arts, his first identity is the son of Zhao.

More than ten years ago, in order to break the Qin State's anti-plot, he knew that the folk song "Li Mu died, Zhao Guo died" was spread in Zhao State.

More than ten years later, Zhao Gao has been growing by the side of the First Emperor, dealing with the top people in the world, and seeing the most profound strategies in the world with his own eyes.

After cleaning all the bedrooms, Zhao Gao ordered the two eunuchs to enter, and used a flat pole decorated with a large basket to carry the tightly wrapped brocade quilt out of Concubine Hu's dormitory and out of Xianyang Palace.

With the order of the First Emperor, Zhao Gao, who was back in charge of all the forces of Xianyang Palace, was unimpeded all the way, and there was no comment on all the questions.

No one knew that the brocade quilt in the large basket carried by the two eunuchs was wrapped in the concubine orchid.

Nor did anyone know where the two eunuchs had gone with the big basket out of breath, for they never returned.

Three people go out, one person goes back.

Returning to Xianyang Palace again, Zhao Gao, who had properly handled everything, found Zhonglang General Zhang Han.

This time, Zhao Gao wants to use Zhang Han's other identity, the commander of the shadow secret guard.
