Qin Dynasty: Your Majesty, I really am a time traveler.

Seeing Ying Zheng's appearance, Tang Yu nodded in satisfaction.

There are many theories about why the Qin state perished after only two generations.

Some people believe it was caused by the misdeeds of Zhao Gao, Hu Hai, and others, while others say it was because Ying Zheng died and could not suppress the remnants of the six states.

Many people believe that the Qin state did not completely eliminate the remnants of the six states. Although there are many different opinions on these actions, the core reason is that the Qin state has lost the support of the people!

Otherwise, even if these events continue to erupt, no matter how much the remnants of the six kingdoms cause trouble, no one will follow their judgment, and they will not be able to gather a large army.

Even if Xiang Yu, the Hegemon-King of Western Chu, was a formidable warrior, could he possibly kill the entire Qin state by himself?

“Severe measures are only necessary in times of chaos. Now that the country is unified, we should focus on recuperation and restoring the nation and its people to their best state. The Qin laws are no longer applicable!”

"But sir, if we want to change the laws, it will probably be difficult to do so in a short time, especially since our Qin state has always governed according to the Qin law. Changing mindsets all at once will probably be very difficult."

Seeing that Ying Zheng was still somewhat hesitant, Tang Yu decided to reveal a bit about the future to him.

"Your Majesty, let me tell you a story."

“If you are a craftsman who repairs something, and the local officials order you to finish the repairs in 10 days, even if you have worked very hard, you may not be able to continue due to a sudden downpour.”

"Ten days have passed, and no matter how you explain yourself, this official is going to have you beheaded. What will His Majesty do then?"

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng couldn't help but show a hint of resentment on his face, and his tone became somewhat murderous.

"It's true that the rain makes construction impossible, but what does that have to do with me? Does this official have no sense of reason at all? If he really wants to execute me, I will fight to the death!"

Ying Zheng's reaction was indeed in line with Tang Yu's judgment, so he looked at Ying Zheng and nodded.

"Your Majesty is absolutely right, so everyone else thinks the same way."

After realizing what was happening, Ying Zheng looked at Tang Yu. He knew that this handsome, young, and extraordinary immortal could know about the future, and his tone became hesitant.

"Sir, could it be that this is..."

"Yes, this is the story of the first peasant uprising against the Qin state in the future."

"What? They actually dare to defy my..."

Ying Zheng's words suddenly turned somewhat dejected halfway through.

Yes, in that situation, not resisting meant certain death, so it's only natural for people to resist. Didn't he just choose to fight back?

Looking at the silent and thoughtful Qin Shi Huang, Tang Yu straightened up and said:

"In that case, I will not disturb you any longer and will take my leave now."

Hearing that Tang Yu was leaving, Qin Shihuang hurriedly stepped forward, took Tang Yu's hand, and spoke with unusual sincerity.

"Sir, I, Ying Zheng, have no way to repay your life-saving grace! However, I have one more request, and I hope you can grant it."

"I wish to become your disciple, sir. I do not seek the elixir of immortality, but only how to ensure the continuation of my Qin dynasty for ten thousand generations. I beg you, sir, to grant my request!"

After saying this, Ying Zheng, who had ruled the world for many years, actually prepared to kneel down and give Tang Yu a disciple's salute.

This scene shocked Tang Yu instantly!

This is Ying Zheng, after all. He wants to become my disciple? That's really inappropriate.

After quickly helping Ying Zheng up, Tang Yu composed himself and said:

"Your Majesty is too kind. I am just an ordinary person. If Your Majesty is willing, I can become your close friend. Your Majesty can discuss any questions with me. As for the matter of becoming your apprentice, please do not mention it again."

Feeling the sincerity and genuineness in his words, Ying Zheng was deeply moved, but he still maintained his own principles.

"In that case, how about we let Fusu become your student? I can't help but worry about this child's temperament!"

Hearing Ying Zheng's long sigh, Fang Yun also felt a headache coming on.

Dude, a single imperial edict drove you to suicide? You're incredibly stupid, aren't you? Should we call you loyal or just plain dumb?

So he agreed to Ying Zheng's request and became Fusu's teacher!

……

At the door of the great Confucian scholar Chunyu Yue's house, a number of high-ranking Confucian scholars had gathered, all there for the matter of Prince Fusu's teacher.

"That tyrant is utterly foolish. What does that kid know?"

"Fusu is clearly a disciple of my Confucian school!"

"that is……"

All Confucianists felt a surge of integrity, for they were of the same lineage as Prince Fusu. If Prince Fusu ascended the throne, their Confucianism would surely replace Legalism in the Qin state.

But now someone is telling them that Prince Fusu is about to be the one to reap the rewards? How can they possibly tolerate this?

At this moment, a man straightened his chest and stepped forward, saying to Chunyu Yue:

"I implore the esteemed scholar Chunyu Yue to help me by explaining to that tyrant tomorrow at court that he does not agree to Prince Fusu becoming a disciple of Tang Yu!"

Looking at this dim-witted Confucian disciple, Chunyu Yue felt a bit overwhelmed.

Good heavens! That's Qin Shi Huang!

Once Ying Zheng decides to do something, who in the world can stop him?

If I dared to say it, it might become a game of "Nine Clans Elimination". If you have nine clans, you can say it!

"Everyone, please don't be anxious. Although that person has some mysterious qualities, he may not be a qualified teacher. Perhaps in a couple of days, Prince Fusu will take the initiative to resign. Let's wait and see for a couple of days."

The Confucian scholars all nodded in agreement, after all, they had raised Prince Fusu since he was a child, and they knew his temperament all too well.

It can only be said that Fusu was so thoroughly trained by them that he no longer resembled an emperor at all, and instead became a Confucian.

Meanwhile, Tang Yu, who was at the very center of the vortex, was busy working hard inside the house.

Since Qin Shi Huang had decided to leave this palace for him to live in permanently, he began to renovate it.

He was ordering people to start tidying up his room—a recliner, a stool, a sofa, a coffee table, and all those other things had to be put there!

"Hey, right, right, you guys move all this stuff outside!"

"Also, have those carpenters outside make it more detailed according to the drawings I made!"

While giving instructions, Tang Yu also personally started tidying up the house.

When he finally carried a huge cabinet outside, panting, he saw a handsome young man with a refined demeanor standing at the door.

"I'm here to help..."

Before the other person could speak, Tang Yu shouted at him:

"Hey, someone just happened to come by. Can you lend me a hand and help me move this cabinet outside?"

Fusu: ……
