Chapter 87 The Ruthless Imperial Family

After Huang Rong took Xiao Sizi away, Qin Shihuang glared at Li Si with his eyes, wishing he could skin Li Si alive.

"Lee! Si!"

Li Si didn't even dare to raise his head to look at Qin Shihuang.

He wished he could bury his head in the ground so that he could hear nothing and see nothing.

"Your Majesty, minister..."

Li Si didn't know how to explain it.

Between the immortal and himself, Li Si knew without hesitation that his Majesty must trust the immortal more.

"Immortal, please tell me exactly what happened!"

Qin Shi Huang couldn't understand what the two people he trusted most had done to lead to the demise of the second of the three generations of his Qin Dynasty.

Even if he was so outrageous, his son Fusu would not bring about the demise of the Qin Dynasty so quickly, right?

At this time, Qin Shihuang still believed that his eldest son Fusu would inherit his throne.

"Well, to put it simply, after you died, the two of them tampered with your will."

"One is to let your eldest son Fusu commit suicide."

"Second, he imprisoned the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi, and then killed them."

"The third is to let Hu Hai succeed to the throne."

Qin Shi Huang was stunned when he heard this.

What Ye Jiangnan said was too simple, and he was unable to react at once.

"Let Fusu commit suicide? How did he commit suicide?"

"You said that you asked Fusu to commit suicide?"

Qin Shi Huang asked in confusion.

No matter how powerful his son Fusu is, he probably won't believe that the edict is real, right?
Ye Jiangnan nodded.

Li Shimin shook his head and said with emotion:
"To be honest, the Emperor Qin's son Fusu is truly filial to the Emperor Qin!"

"General Meng Tian doubted the authenticity of the edict and told Prince Fusu not to believe it."

"But because he was filial to you and believed that his father's orders could not be disobeyed, he chose to commit suicide."

"Hey……"

Li Shimin's tone revealed envy, but also a hint of sarcasm.

To Qin Shihuang, it sounded like Li Shimin was mocking his son Fusu for being too stupid.

Do not doubt the authenticity of the imperial edict and do not confirm it with yourself.

"Lee! Si!"

Hearing Li Shimin's sarcastic remarks, Qin Shihuang suddenly picked up Li Si.

The brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi stared at Li Si with cold eyes.

If Qin Shi Huang had not been here, the two brothers would have stepped forward and beaten Li Si up first.

"Your Majesty, I didn't do it!"

"This is none of my business!"

Li Si shouted loudly.

"You haven't done it yet? Could it be that what the immortal just said was false?"

Qin Shi Huang's tone revealed murderous intent.

No wonder his own Qin dynasty perished in three generations.

He said, as long as Fusu was around, how could the Qin Dynasty perish after three generations?

Unexpectedly, it was Li Si and Zhao Gao who killed Fusu, Meng Tian and Meng Yi.

Even if Fusu died, with the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi, the Qin Dynasty would not have perished so quickly.

"Your Majesty, I really didn't do it now!"

"I am still loyal to you!"

Li Si hurried to explain.

Qin Shihuang stared at Li Si and finally threw him out.

"Meng Tian!"

"Chen is here!"

"Meng Yi!"

"Chen is here!"

Qin Shihuang looked at the Meng brothers in front of him and felt infinite emotion in his heart.

This is my loyal minister!

Unfortunately, he was killed by Zhao Gao and Li Si!

"Take Li Si away, don't let me beat him to death!"

Qin Shi Huang ordered.

Upon hearing this, Meng Tian and Meng Yi walked towards Li Si.

"Your Majesty, I didn't do it!"

"I am loyal to you!"

"I really didn't do it!"

"His Majesty……"

Qin Shihuang ignored him. Meng Tian and Meng Yi each grabbed one of Li Si's arms and walked towards the corner of the yard.

Little Sizi has finished going to the toilet.

Holding Huang Rong in one hand and Empress Changsun in the other, he walked towards this side.

Coincidentally, Xiao Sizi saw Li Si being pulled by the arms by Meng Tian and Meng Yi.

"Mother, Sister Rong, that uncle is so old, why is he still holding hands?"

Xiao Sizi said in surprise.

Even though I am a grown-up, I am still a child, and it is normal to hold hands.

But that uncle, who was already very old and looked even older than my grandfather, actually wanted to hold hands.

When Li Si heard Xiao Sizi's voice, he almost couldn't hold back.

How can you tell that they are holding hands?
As soon as Xiao Sizi came in front of Ye Jiangnan, he heard Li Si's screams.

Except for Qin Shi Huang, everyone looked over curiously.

"what!"

"what……"

"what--"

The screams one after another scared the two children, Xiao Sizi and Ying Yinman.

Ying Yinman was so scared that she hid in Qin Shihuang's arms.

Little Sizi was so scared that he first ran towards Li Shimin, then turned around and ran into Ye Jiangnan's arms.

"Xiao Nengjun, what happened to that uncle?"

Little Sizi sat on Ye Jiangnan's thighs with his head resting on Ye Jiangnan's chest.

He covered his eyes with his two chubby hands, opening a tiny gap as he looked at Li Si in the corner.

"He... made a mistake."

Ye Jiangnan said.

Ye Jiangnan had no sympathy for Li Si.

No matter who it is, it would be impossible to endure it.

"What mistake was made?"

Little Sizi asked curiously.

"He killed this uncle's son and also killed this uncle's minister."

Ye Jiangnan pointed at Qin Shihuang who had a gloomy face and said.

"what?"

"That uncle is so pitiful!"

Little Sizi spoke in a soft voice.

"This is not pitiful enough, there are even more pitiful ones."

Ye Jiangnan replied.

"Oh?"

Little Sizi looked at Ye Jiangnan in confusion. Qin Shihuang, Wang Jian and Wang Ben also looked over.

"Immortal, what did you just say?"

Qin Shi Huang asked hurriedly.

"Could it be that Li Si and Zhao Gao have done something even more outrageous?!"

Qin Shihuang became angry again.

Ye Jiangnan shook his head and said:
"This time it has nothing to do with Li Si, but with your son Hu Hai and Zhao Gao."

Qin Shi Huang frowned and guessed:

"My Immortal, could it be that Hu Hai is killing innocent people and harming the people?"

"Or did Hu Hai increase taxes and corvee labor?"

Ye Jiangnan said speechlessly:

"Do you think I would still say the word 'pitiful' if that were the case?"

Qin Shi Huang shook his head.

"That's true."

"Sage, please just speak directly."

"I can bear it!"

Compared to Zhao Gao and Li Si who tampered with the imperial edict, killed his son Fusu, and killed the Meng brothers, Qin Shihuang felt that he was quite strong enough to withstand the pressure.

Is there anything more unbearable than these things?

Ye Jiangnan didn't quite believe Qin Shi Huang, and said to Wang Jian and Wang Ben:

"You two, remember to hold on to your Majesty later."

Wang Jian and Wang Ben didn't understand, but nodded anyway.

Li Shimin already knew what Ye Jiangnan was going to say, and added:
"Qin Huang, you must hold back when you find out later."

"Don't scare my daughter."

Qin Shihuang glared at Li Shimin.

Mocking me?
Next time I will ask the immortal how many generations you, Li Shimin, have passed down your legacy and what you have done.

"Cough cough!"

"After Hu Hai ascended the throne, he was afraid that his throne would be taken away by his brothers and sisters."

"So, he and Zhao Gao together executed twelve of their brothers in Xianyang."

"Not only were they executed, but their bodies were also dismembered after death!"

When Qin Shihuang heard this, he was so shocked that he took several steps back.

Wang Jian and Wang Ben quickly supported Qin Shi Huang.

Meng Tian and Meng Yi in the corner stopped beating Li Si when they heard Ye Jiangnan's words.

Li Si felt somewhat relieved.

He was glad he wasn't involved.

This is much more serious than tampering with the imperial will.

“How cruel!”

Even Xiao Sizi couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

Ying Yinman exclaimed:

"Brother, how could he be like this!?"

Qin Shi Huang said with a trembling voice:

"My Immortal, Hu Hai...he...how could he become like this?"

Li Shimin, standing aside, couldn't help but recall the Xuanwu Gate Incident that happened that year.

He killed his eldest brother and his fourth brother.

But after he ascended the throne, he did not kill his other brothers and sisters.

Ye Jiangnan said lightly:

"Let's not talk about why Hu Hai became like this."

"After he executed his twelve brothers in Xianyang, he also forced Jianglu and three other brothers to death."

"Six more brothers and ten sisters were then crushed to death."

After saying that, Ye Jiangnan looked at Ying Yinman.

Ye Jiangnan was afraid of scaring Ying Yinman, so he did not tell her that Ying Yinman was also one of the ten sisters.

But Qin Shihuang saw what Ye Jiangnan meant.

"Hu Hai...he...he..."

Qin Shihuang felt dizzy and then fell down.

Wang Jian and Wang Ben were prepared and quickly supported Qin Shi Huang.

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

"His Majesty!"

Meng Tian, ​​Meng Yi and Li Si, whose face was bruised and swollen, ran over in a hurry.

"His Majesty!"

"Father!"

Looking at Qin Shihuang who fainted from anger, Ye Jiangnan sighed slightly.

The same was true for Li Shimin. There was a hint of sympathy in his eyes when he looked at Qin Shihuang.

Having a son like this, it's lucky that he didn't die of anger.

Little Sizi pouted and frowned:

"Bad guy!"

"Little Nianjun, Grandpa, Mom, Sister Rong, that uncle's son is a bad guy!"

Little Sizi was also unhappy when he heard this.

"Little Neng-jun, why is he so bad!"

"We are all brothers and sisters, why can't we just get along well?"

Little Sizi asked Ye Jiangnan.

Ye Jiangnan did not answer and looked at Li Shimin over there.

"King Tang, how about you tell me something?"

Li Shimin looked very embarrassed when he heard this.

How can this be said?
"Um...Sizi...Grandpa..."

Li Shimin didn't know how to explain to his daughter.

He has done similar things.

Huang Rong crossed her arms and snorted:

"Sizi, Sister Rong is here to tell you."

"Hey……"

Li Shimin thought Huang Rong was going to tell her about her past, so he opened his mouth to interrupt her.

"Don't worry, King Tang. I won't expose your shortcomings."

Huang Rong said with a smile.

She originally wanted to call him "Your Majesty Taizong", but then she remembered that she was not a subject of Li Shimin, so she called him "King of Tang" like Ye Jiangnan did.

"Si Zi, let me tell you, the imperial family is the most ruthless!"

"As the royal family fought for the throne and power, family affection was often obscured and distorted by the power struggle."

"The phenomenon of mutual suspicion, framing and killing among relatives can be said to be vividly demonstrated in the Royal Family."

"It is said that being born into a royal family is good, but being born into a royal family, although you can live a life of luxury and luxury."

"But you have to lose a lot of things, and many times, you live in fear."

Huang Rong said calmly.

After listening to this, Li Shimin looked at Empress Changsun silently.

What Huang Rong said was indeed correct.

Li Shimin and Empress Changsun were also worried that such a thing would happen, and they were trying their best to maintain the relationship between children like Xiao Sizi.

They were also afraid that the "Xuanwu Gate" incident would happen again, and that Hu Hai's killing of his brothers and sisters would happen again.
