"He is my father?"

"Does he love me?"

Fu Su muttered to himself, his pupils trembling as he looked at Tang Yu.

He always felt that he was never favored by his father, the emperor.

He was always in a state of being rejected by Ying Zheng, both in terms of his actions and his behavior.

But today, Tang Yu actually told himself that it was because of his father's love for him that this situation had arisen!

"Teacher, you must have misspoke. Father Emperor is always the most severe when he scolds me."

Even though that's what he said, Tang Yu noticed that Fu Su's eyes were already a little moist when he looked at him.

He knew that this young master Fusu, who was always known for his gentle and refined manners,

Deep down, he was also a child who longed for his father's affirmation and love.

Otherwise, it wouldn't be behaving this way now.

Tang Yu smiled.

"The teacher asked you, if you had two armies, one of which you considered to be elite troops and the one you trained with the highest standards."

"The other one is a scattered and disorganized force; you can't expect them to achieve anything on the battlefield."

"At this point, both armies have been defeated by the same very weak opponent. Which army do you think would be more furious?"

Upon hearing this question, Fusu answered without hesitation.

"That's definitely the first army!"

Tang Yu was very satisfied with Fu Su's answer.

"Could you tell me why I am more disappointed with the first army?"

Fusu nodded.

"That's because of the training I put into him and the high hopes I had for him. So it's precisely because of those expectations that I felt disappointed!"

"If it were an army that I don't have any expectations for normally, I would find it perfectly normal for them to suffer defeats on the battlefield."

"Because I don't expect them to help me win battles, after all, I have an elite army!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Fusu was about to continue, but he opened his mouth and froze on the spot.

He suddenly understood what Tang Yu meant; it turned out that his father really loved him!

Yes, he had never thought about why this was the case before.

Why do I always receive harsher punishments than others for making the same mistakes? Why do I always have to take more classes than others?

But now he spoke with considerable emotion.

"So that's how it is."

Looking at the smiling Tang Yu in front of him, Fu Su was no longer confused as before. He stood up with firm eyes and bowed deeply to Tang Yu.

"This disciple thanks you, teacher. If it weren't for your guidance, I'm afraid my father and I would not have been able to realize our love for each other in the future."

Fusu had already made up his mind that if he went back, he would definitely apologize to his father properly.

After all, she had always thought that her father was targeting her and the Confucian school, but now it seemed that her father did love her.

So why was the Emperor so angry after hearing my words and the Confucian teachings?

If the emperor loves me, doesn't that mean Confucianism is really...?

Tang Yu didn't speak but looked into the distance.

"Go see for yourself, learn for yourself. I won't tell you anything, just like I said in the beginning."

Fusu nodded and bowed respectfully to Tang Yu, then followed behind him with utmost deference.

As the two strolled leisurely, many figures following behind them exchanged glances.

"It's almost time!"

These people noticed that Tang Yu never seemed to be accompanied by any guards when he traveled.

This also gave those who harbored murderous intent towards Tang Yu an opportunity.

If someone else were to go out with someone of equal status to Tang Yu, assassinating him would be an incredibly difficult task!

These people were hired assassins. The leader gave orders to the men behind him:

"You two go and kill the leader. But you absolutely cannot harm the young man behind him! Otherwise, we'll lose our commission this time!"

These people exchanged glances and nodded emphatically.

They were all from the land of Jingchu. After the Qin state destroyed their country, they inherited their original skills and became assassins.

Yesterday, someone came to them and hired them to kill someone.

That person was very generous with the money, so they took on the deal.

However, the other party had a strange request: that a young man with a smooth, jade-like complexion accompany them.

Not only must the enemy be killed, but the young man must not be harmed in the slightest!

These unlucky fellows had no idea that they were with the Grand Preceptor of Qin and the Prince of Qin.

If they knew, they wouldn't have accepted the order no matter how high the commission was.

"Fusu, let me tell you..."

Just as Tang Yu and Fu Su were chatting, a man wielding a sharp sword suddenly rushed out from beside Tang Yu!

He swung his sword directly at Tang Yu.

"Die!"

Tang Yu, who had been on high alert, instantly summoned his S686 and pulled the trigger at the man.

"boom!"

After the thunderous roar, the man wielding the longsword was sent flying by a single spear thrust.

A huge hole instantly appeared in his chest! Blood gushed out!

When this scene reached the eyes of the other assassins, they were all shocked, but they became even more ferocious!

Nonsense, after all, they are people who live on the edge of a knife. If they didn't have a bit of a ruthless aura, who would dare to do this job?

"Kill this brat!"

"Brothers, charge! He's all alone!"

Tang Yu watched as the people rushing towards him broke out in a cold sweat.

He had never encountered an assassination attempt of this scale before; his enemies in the past were at most bandits.

If even one or two of them die, the rest will scatter like a scattering of birds.

But now this group of people are still charging forward fearlessly!

"Die!"

Seeing a long knife about to strike him, Tang Yu pulled the trigger again.

"Boom!!!"

After two gunshots, two more assassins dressed in black robes lay on the ground.

Fusu behind him had already drawn his sword, his eyes fixed on the group of people with a menacing gaze.

He knew that his teacher possessed a secret treasure from the celestial realm, which could easily take lives.

But as his teacher's disciple, he absolutely could not let his teacher fight on the front lines while he himself lived a life of ignominy!

Sensing the vulnerability of these people in the face of firearms, Tang Yu instantly breathed a sigh of relief.

He discovered that although the group of assassins was numerous, they were nothing but chickens and dogs in front of his S686 with unlimited ammo.

Basically, it's one shot, one kill!

But when he turned his head, his eyes widened instantly, and his pupils trembled involuntarily.

He noticed an assassin behind him raising a longbow and aiming it at him, while Fusu happened to be walking towards him.

In a moment of desperation, Tang Yu rushed over to Fusu.

"Fusu! Get out of the way!"
