"Li Qing is the widow's capable minister and beloved general, how could the widow want your life!"

Ying Zheng said with a faint smile.

Li Si did not dare to reply, of course he knew that these were just polite words from Ying Zheng.

"Li Si, I know that you are a talented person, but after all, I made a big mistake, and I can't forgive you lightly. This is why you have been demoted as a prime minister."

"However, after all, the widow can't bear to waste your talent, coupled with the persuasion of Meng Qing and others, so the widow decided to give you a chance."

"After today, you will go to Jingshui to assist someone. As for whether you will be reinstated as an official or end up in another end, it all depends on what that person thinks of you!"

……

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Li Si was startled.

Who is this person? He has such great ability that even Ying Zheng pays so much attention to it.

It seemed that he could see the doubt in Li Si's heart, and Ying Zheng didn't intend to hide him.

"Li Si, do you know why the widow can see Zhao Gao's conspiracy? Even before Zhao Gao launched the incident, the widow has predicted everything, including your participation, do you believe it?"

"what?"

Li Si was shocked.

"Li Si, I'll tell you straight, if that person hadn't asked the widow to keep you, you might not have escaped the same fate as Zhao Gao'!"

Li Si broke out in a cold sweat when he heard that.

It turned out that he was so close to the Zhu Jiu Clan, but luckily the hidden expert spoke for him, which made Ying Zheng let him go.

"Your Majesty, I don't know the identity of this expert? The villain is worried that if he bumps into him..."

Li Si carefully inquired about Zhao Che's identity.

Of course Ying Zheng could see what Li Si was thinking, but he had no intention of hiding it.

"The person I asked you to assist is the youngest son of the widow, the 24th son of Daqin, and... the future prince of Daqin!"

"What... what?"

Hearing these words suddenly, Li Si sat on the ground in shock, with cold sweat streaming down his forehead uncontrollably.

"The 24th son!"

"The future prince of Great Qin!"

"Qin II!"

……

These words kept flashing in Li Si's mind, making him so confused that he didn't know how to respond.

In fact, this is not the first time Li Si has heard rumors about the 24th son of Daqin.

When the 24th son was born, it was the critical moment for Yingzheng to unify the Seven Kingdoms.

After the 24th son was born, he was frail and sick, and his mother also died due to dystocia.

At that time, Ying Zheng didn't have time to take care of Zhao Che. Coupled with the frequent battles in the palace, in order to protect Zhao Che, Ying Zheng secretly sent him out, and said to the outside world that the 24th son died young.

But no one expected that this mysterious 24th son not only grew up safely, but also became so outstanding now that Ying Zheng quietly made his plan to make him the heir apparent.

You know, before this, the eldest son Fusu had never been valued so highly by Ying Zheng.

But it is also true that during this period of time, if all the changes in Daqin were made by some mysterious 24th son, this credit and ability alone is enough to make him surpass Fusu's ability and contribution.

It's no wonder that Yingzheng had reserved the crown prince for the 24th son before he returned to the palace.

I'm afraid that this time Yingzheng sent him to the 24th prince because he took a fancy to his previous contacts and abilities, and used it to help the 24th prince to get a better position.

The thoughts in Li Si's mind were spinning, and he quickly guessed all of Ying Zheng's plans.

However, Li Si remained calm on the surface, calmed down a little, and said to Ying Zheng.

"The guilty minister is valued by His Majesty, and he dare not ask for the reinstatement of a competent official, but only asks to share His Majesty's worries!"

Li Si was still a little excited.

Since the 24th son was able to let Ying Zheng protect him at the beginning, it shows that he still values ​​him very much.

If he performed well in the past this time, he might really be able to return to his post.

After all, Yingzheng will hand over the Great Qin Empire to the next generation one day. Judging from the current situation, Zhao Che is definitely the most likely person.

When he planned with Zhao Gao before, the idea was that Hu Hai would be able to rise to the top, so he could also use this to keep his power.

"Li Si, although the widow can give you this opportunity, it depends on you whether you can seize it."

"One more thing, the widow wants to tell you a few words. The identity of Che'er is not clear to others now, even Che'er doesn't know that he is a son. You must remember not to expose it!"

"After going to Che'er, all you need to do is to follow Che'er's orders and help him establish a foundation in the court. Don't ask or talk about superfluous things, otherwise..."

……

Ying Zheng gave a warning with a cold face.

"Here, my servant understands!"

Li Si cupped his hands and quickly agreed.

No wonder the 24th son hides so deeply, so even he himself doesn't know his identity.

"Remember, no matter what Che'er does, you just need to follow his orders, no need to ask!"
