Traveling through the Qin Dynasty, I seized the throne of Ying Zheng's father

Ancient times are different from modern times. In ancient times, people traveled by horse-drawn carriage. Although some roads in the Qin Dynasty had been repaired, most of the roads were still difficult to travel on and the travel speed was not fast. If there was a slight delay, you would basically not be able to travel for the whole day.

In the palace.

"Your Majesty, you are really energetic today."

"Hahahaha, after all, I am touring the country, so I have to pay attention to my appearance. I can't let the people laugh at me, right?"

Ying Zheng laughed.

Zhao Gao on the side also smiled apologetically.

There was a reason why Zhao Gao was favored by the First Emperor. His ability to flatter the emperor without making a sound was unique.

Don't underestimate the skill of flattery. There is knowledge in every industry and every skill has its own requirements.

The most important thing about flattery is to know the occasion and the intensity.

If the flattery is too heavy, it will appear exaggerated and not beautiful, but if the flattery is too subtle, the stupid person may not be able to react.

Flattery needs to be tailored to the person, the place, the occasion, and the situation. To be more precise, it requires observing the person's words and expressions.

This is an extremely advanced technology.

And Zhao Gao was obviously well versed in this.

Ability is one thing, but this skill of observing people's words and expressions is also unique in the Qin Dynasty.

Some people are like this. You know clearly that there is something wrong with them, but you just can't feel any dislike for them.

Just like the many treacherous ministers in ancient times, are the emperors all fools? Don't they know the shortcomings of these people?

Do not!

What makes them truly brilliant is that they don't hide their shortcomings. As long as the shortcoming is not fatal, there is no need to hide it. All they have to do is weaken it.

The big flaws became small flaws, and then the emperor knew about them, which actually earned the emperor's trust. After all, a flawless person is extremely unreliable, and it is easier to control him if you have something on him, right?

These small shortcomings not only will not make the emperor unhappy, but will instead help deepen the relationship between the two.

I know your shortcomings, but I don't deal with you. You can only rely on me, and you are grateful. With this back and forth, how can the relationship between us not be close?

This is human nature...

...........

After Ying Zheng got dressed, he prepared to set off.

Just as he was about to step out of the room, he suddenly stopped and turned to look at Zhao Gao.

"Call Fusu here. I'm still a little worried. I need to tell him something..."

"Yes."

In front of the First Emperor, Zhao Gao was just an obedient child.

I was just about to go and call for help.

Suddenly a guard came over...

"Your Majesty, the eldest son is outside seeking an audience!"

"Oh?"

After hearing the guard's report, Zhao Gao stopped and the First Emperor couldn't help showing a look of surprise.

"What a coincidence! I have a few words to say. Let him in."

"Yes."

.........

After a while...

The guards brought Fusu to Ying Zheng.

During this period, Ying Zheng forced himself to do some psychological work...

"Don't be angry, don't be angry..."

"The world is so wonderful, I shouldn't be angry, calm down... calm down..."

"Today is the day to set off. Getting angry is unlucky. Not getting angry is not auspicious...."

After some operations, Ying Zheng suddenly felt that his mood had calmed down a lot.

He tried his best not to think about what happened yesterday and to stay calm...

"Father."

Fusu bowed and saluted.

"Yes. What are you doing in the palace? I have a few words to tell you, so go ahead and tell me first."

Ying Zheng spoke.

"Father, it's like this. After you leave, won't I be the regent? I want to ask for someone from you!"

"Oh?"

Hearing Fusu's words, Ying Zheng couldn't help but look surprised.

He seemed to have gotten to know his eldest son all over again. He looked Fusu up and down, and was stunned.

What's going on with this kid?

Are you enlightened?

Ying Zheng was very surprised.

Fusu was a very stubborn person. He was very persistent in his ideals and in his insistence, but his daily actions were deeply influenced by Confucianism and he followed the rules very well.

Normally, when two people want to speak at the same time, Fusu will certainly yield and let himself speak first. But this time, he obviously did not do so. This is one reason.

The second one is even more surprising.

Taking the initiative to ask for someone?

When will Fusu take the initiative to propose conditions?

Ying Zheng was very surprised.

Except when he was proactive in opposing policies, when he was proactive for the people, and when he was pleading for others, this kid Fusu has never been proactive when it comes to his own affairs!

"There is someone who my son values so much? Who do you want? As long as you ask, I will definitely bring him to you!"

Ying Zheng patted his chest and assured.

Although he had always been dissatisfied with his eldest son, he never gave up hope.

If he had really given up, he would have deposed Fusu long ago, and would not have been angry about what Fusu did.

The reason why I'm angry is that I'm furious at their lack of fighting spirit and I'm disappointed in their failure to live up to their expectations!

There was always a glimmer of hope in Ying Zheng's heart. What if...what if Fusu suddenly came to his senses?

I have heard many legends about some people who are naturally dull, achieve success late in life, and then suddenly become intelligent and become a sensation.

Others can do it, but there is no reason why I, the son of Ying Zheng, cannot do it!

Think about me, Ying Zheng, who swept across the six kingdoms and unified the world. As the saying goes, a hero father will have a hero son. Fusu is the eldest son, so how could he not have my style?

It must be that it has not been developed and has been harmed by those corrupt scholars!

Maybe...just in case...someday I'll get it?

It was with this in mind that Ying Zheng appointed Fusu as regent.

In fact, no one knows that this time the regent is different from the previous ones.

During the previous eastern tour, Fusu was allowed to govern the country, but the actual power was always in the hands of Ying Zheng, which was basically remote control.

This time, Ying Zheng decided to make a bold attempt - to hand over the power to Fusu!

After a long period of unsuccessful efforts in teaching Fusu, Ying Zheng came up with an idea after much thought!

Thinking back to the past, why was I able to rule the world at such a young age?

Why did Fusu become so pedantic?

Obviously, it’s the environment!

The environment I grew up in was full of struggles and intrigues. I came into contact with various powers and met all kinds of people.

But Fusu was different. He had made the mistake of letting him devote himself wholeheartedly to Confucianism, which led to a disaster.

He is under his wing, always under his wing!

So, how to grow?

Unable to grow!

If the young eagle wants to take off, it must break free from the arms of its parents, so after some thought, and taking into account his own health and age, Ying Zheng decided to entrust part of the power to Fusu during this time of regent, so as to truly train his son through actual combat!
