My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 739: Eldest Son Yao
If both of Queen Feng's sons cannot become the crown prince and cannot become the future third emperor, the Feng family will not be able to control what will happen to the Qin Kingdom; but the Feng clan will become the primary target of Qin III's liquidation.

For an emperor, there is no such thing as private affairs; family affairs are state affairs.

As a result, Feng Jie, who originally wanted to put aside his family grudges, had to keep his distance from Qin II.

"His Majesty said that he would definitely appoint a crown prince at a later date. Although Prince Yao was not appointed as the crown prince directly, fortunately my sister has given birth to a boy. In this case, my Feng family still has more advantages."

"Besides, no matter how favored Han Ji is, if our Great Qin wants to choose a crown prince, Han Ji's eldest son will have the least advantage."

"Because Han Ji is really a princess of a fallen country,"

It was not known whether Feng Jie said these words out of fear or a certain rational trust in the emperor.

"How come you have been studying with me for so long and still believe what the emperor said? Anything anyone promises you is not valid. Only things you can decide for yourself count."

Feng Jie's face suddenly turned as cold as frost and snow, "It's impossible that Your Majesty would not enthronize the two legitimate sons and instead enthronize the son of the favorite concubine."

"Before the crown prince is officially appointed, everything is possible."

"If Prince Yao is canonized one day later, then the chances of other princes being canonized will be greater. I remember that the capable woman in the Xianyang Palace is not only my daughter, Feng Quji."

"Madam Xiong, she is the daughter of the current King of Jin. The so-called King of Jin is just a title deliberately changed by the emperor in order to make the people of Chu forget the name of Chu. In fact, Xiong Qi controls most of Chu."

"If one day in the future, Xiong Qi's vassal state becomes the most powerful feudal state, then I tell you, the history of our Feng family will no longer be written by ourselves."

Feng Jie just felt overwhelmed.

"When your sister was chosen by Qin II as the Crown Prince's wife, I knew that our Feng family would never have a safe place again. And it turned out to be true."

These topics were too heavy for Feng Quji and Feng Jie.

And at this time in the Xianyang Palace.

The new queen was lying on the couch, hugging her yet another son.

Once upon a time, a certain retired emperor and the deceased queen were performing a series of melodramatic love scenes in the palace, which normal people in the palace found unbearable.

But now, with a new couple moving into the same palace, there aren't as many trivial and annoying "dramas" as in the past, but everyone feels the horror of normalcy again.

The emperor behaved very normally and seriously; the empress behaved very gently and calmly, and never caused trouble.

But everyone always feels that there is something indescribable.

Young Master Yao is already six years old.

Although he lived in the palace, he could always get a lot of information from the talkative palace maids and guards.

His idolized father rejected the requests of most of the court officials and did not appoint him as the crown prince.

This was a bolt from the blue for him.

At the same time, his mother gave birth to a younger brother for him.

In this palace surrounded by high walls, his father was the common father of his brothers and sisters, and his mother was his only one; but now, his mother was no longer his only one.

Yao, who was only six years old, was already facing things that he considered extremely cruel.

In fact, when he walks out of the palace, he will find countless children of his age who have lost their fathers forever.

But this boy cannot step out of the palace and see the world yet.

The supreme status he was born into also made him believe that he was born unique, noble, and extraordinary.

He would probably never make himself feel better by comparing himself with the common people.

In this small world, I can only sigh the tragedy of his fate and the misfortunes of his life.

What does a six-year-old child know?
What doesn’t a six-year-old child understand?
Yao stood beside his mother and looked at his little brother.

The Queen told him, "It's exactly the same as when you were a child."

Yao looked at his younger brother but couldn't smile. Since he already had me, why did he need to have another one?

The Queen had only seen Yao a few times in the three months that had passed. In order to raise their second child, to ensure Yao's academic progress, and to keep him away from the criticisms of the court, the Queen chose to let him live alone in the villa. "Why are you unhappy?"

Yao realized what was wrong, and a perfect smile appeared at the corner of his bitter mouth, "As long as mother likes it."

How sensitive a mother is.

Feng Wanwan immediately dismissed the people around him, took her eldest son's hand and asked, "What happened? Are you unhappy? Who provoked you? Who dared to provoke you?"

Yao was frightened by his mother's series of questions.

"No. No one annoyed me. I just didn't sleep well these days and I'm a little tired."

The queen did see that her eldest son exuded a strong sense of fatigue. Compared with his previous lively, cheerful and naughty state, he was like two different people. Now Yao actually had a sense of decadence.

The queen pulled her son and held him against her chest.

When he smelled the familiar scent of milk, Yao couldn't help but shed tears.

"Did you hear something?"

"I'm afraid my life is over. When Prince Ning ascends to the throne, I will be the first to be liquidated. It's just a pity that my mother will also be implicated."

"I hope that after I die, mother can live longer in the harem. As for my younger brother, I don't know if he can live to grow up. After all, the age difference between him and Gongzi Ning is too big."

"When Gongzi Ning becomes the crown prince, there will probably be countless people helping Gongzi Ning to kill him."

Prince Yao's sudden words almost broke the Queen's heart into pieces.

The queen was first surprised, then frightened, and she was in a state of aphasia for a long time.

"How can you think like that?"

"That's what's written in the history books," Yao said expressionlessly. "I heard from the palace servants that my great-grandfather [Qin Shi Huang] had a brother who wanted to rebel and was eventually killed."

"But whether the elder brother's brothers really wanted to rebel, or whether others needed the elder brother's brothers to rebel, I think this is also a very important question."

Yao said these words from his heart to his mother.

Before Yao could start crying sadly, the Queen had already broken down and burst into tears.

The mother and child hugged each other and cried, and the baby also cried loudly. The three of them cried until they were drowsy, and only when they felt too tired to have any strength left did they calm the fear and grievance in their hearts.

The palace is a place where you can see the most talented people from all walks of life in the world from an early age, and it also allows you to witness the bloodiest and most cruel power struggles between people from an early age.

Young Master Yao is only six years old, but he has already matured to this point.

I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a misfortune.

Fusu naturally could not hear the crying of the queen and the eldest son.

He is now busy dealing with the abolition of the military merit system.

Abolishing is not a big deal, but gradually abolishing those laws and regulations and demobilizing the soldiers is also a slow process.

The jackals and barbarians in the north have been eyeing the big piece of fat meat that is the Qin State.

No one dared to take the northern Hu people lightly.

The development of the recruitment system marked the disintegration of the conscription system based on the well-field system.

However, due to the low productivity, the country did not have the power to bear the entire burden of recruiting soldiers, so the conscription system came into being.

With the end of the war, the Qin Empire is now returning to the era of conscription.

This will trigger a new round of competition for interests.
