Ying Zheng took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and said in a deep voice.

"Li Si, as the prime minister, I understand that you made such a decision to stabilize the people's hearts, but the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime cannot be escaped. From now on, you will be dismissed from the position of prime minister and demoted to the position of court judge to see the results."

Li Si turned pale when he heard this, but he also knew that the emperor was showing mercy to his men.

Otherwise, for what he had done, he would probably have been thrown into prison. He then knelt down and kowtowed, repeatedly saying "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace."

Ying Zheng waved his hand, signaling him to leave for the time being. After all, he didn't really want to see him right now.

However, he secretly thought in his heart that the current situation in the court was complicated. Although Li Si had made mistakes, his talents were still rare. It would be better to spare his life for the time being in case of emergency.

"Fusu, do you know why I called you here?"

Hearing what Ying Zheng said, Fusu was stunned, and then he replied respectfully, "I don't know, but I will definitely follow my father's teachings."

Ying Zheng nodded slightly. He had always been optimistic about this eldest son, but he had been taught by Confucian scholars to be too benevolent and righteous, and lacked some necessary ruthless means.

He was too obedient to the rules, which is why he was taken advantage of by Hu Hai and Zhao Gao in the end.

However, it is this kindness in his heart that is the reason why he needs Fusu. The future of the Qin Dynasty needs someone who is both capable and can pacify the people.

"I called you here to make you understand that the Qin Empire requires not only benevolence and justice, but also wisdom and decisiveness.

You have also seen the series of things that Hu Hai and Zhao Gao did in history. Once power falls into the wrong hands,

The consequences are disastrous. You need to take this as a lesson. If you inherit the great cause in the future, you must be vigilant and avoid such a thing happening again."

After hearing this, Fusu was shocked. He knew his father's intention and also understood what Ying Zheng was going to do next. He nodded solemnly.

"I will keep this in mind and will live up to your high expectations."

Seeing this, Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with relief, and then he turned to Meng Yi beside him.

"Meng Yi, announce my decree. Fusu will succeed the throne of the crown prince. In the future, you need to assist Fusu and jointly protect the country of Great Qin."

Meng Yi knelt down and accepted the order, his voice firm: "Yes! Your Majesty, I will do my best and swear to be loyal to the Qin Dynasty until death!"

As Ying Zheng's orders were implemented one by one, the atmosphere in the room gradually eased.

Upon seeing this, Luosangsang and others applauded their ancestor's decisive decisions.

So cool! Although Hu Hai and Zhao Gao are only in prison now, they all know that they will soon report to the underworld.

"Your Majesty, you can let Prince Fusu stay with us to learn some modern knowledge, as well as management and governance.

This will make him more comfortable in future governance and he will also be able to learn some new concepts and knowledge.”

Luosangsang suggested, his eyes flashing with anticipation for Fusu's future. After all, if the ancestor expanded the territory in the future, Daqin would need someone to guard it.

But Fusu obviously does not have such ability now, so he stays with them to learn for a while, and they can persuade him more to see if they can change his overly honest nature.

Ying Zheng pondered for a moment and felt that this proposal made sense. After all, they were people who lived two thousand years later and had advanced knowledge and some management concepts.

Perhaps this gentle son can undergo a completely new change, and may even bring new and different reforms to the Qin Dynasty.

"Okay, let's do as you say, Fusu. You stay here for the time being and study hard. Don't let me and everyone else down." He said to Fusu with unquestionable majesty in his tone.

Fusu knelt again and responded respectfully: "I obey your command and will study hard to live up to the expectations of my father and all of you."

After dealing with these things, Ying Zheng breathed a sigh of relief. Perhaps it was because he knew that he could practice and perhaps even prolong his life, he felt that the burden in his heart was suddenly much lighter.

He glanced at everyone in the room, and his gaze finally fell on Luosangsang and the others. His eyes were gentle and full of gratitude. Looking at the late sky outside, he thought that it was time for dinner.

"Come on! All of you follow me to the palace for dinner! I'll ask the imperial chef to prepare a feast for you!"

Hearing this, Luosangsang and the others looked at each other and saw interest in each other's eyes.

But now they are all in their shop, so they must treat our ancestors to a big meal.

Go to the palace to eat? They can go tomorrow. Anyway, they still have to stay in Daqin for another three months. There is a long time to go, so Luosangsang replied.

"Your Majesty, why don't you eat in our store today? You can also try the delicacies of our future world. Our store not only has delicacies from future worlds, but also many delicacies from other dimensions."

"Oh! Really? Then I can enjoy it today. Fusu, Mengyi, you two stay and eat with me!"

Ying Zheng, who was about to get up and return to the palace, stopped in his tracks when he heard this and looked at Luosangsang with interest.

"Your Majesty, please follow us! The cafeteria is outside!"

Luosangsang replied with a smile, then led the way, striding out of the reception room, passing through rows of shelves, and into the cafeteria.

After walking along the way and dealing with some things, Ying Zheng finally had the mood to observe this mysterious shop.

He saw a lot of food on the rows of shelves, and he also noticed that one of the shelves was filled with different grain seeds.

Although we don’t know what kind of grains those seeds are, I think those that can be put on the shelves should be good things.

Fusu and Meng Yi behind him also had the same curious look on their faces, and finally followed Luosangsang and the others into the bright and fragrant cafeteria.

As soon as they came in, they were overwhelmed by the aroma. This aroma was completely different from what they usually ate and seemed even more overbearing.

Wherever the eyes passed, there were neatly arranged chairs and benches, and a large transparent glass cover in the middle, from which the fragrance came.

There were several people in white clothes inside, stirring something quickly with spatulas in their hands, which made the people watching very curious.

"Your Majesty, you can come over and see if there is anything you want to eat. There are many varieties here, and there are many choices. Or your Majesty, please take a seat first, and I will go and order and serve it to you!"

Luosangsang asked, after all, he saw that the three of them seemed very interested in this cafeteria.

They were looking in the direction of the kitchen without blinking, so I asked them first to see if they wanted to go together.

"Together! I just want to go and see it!"
