Chapter 969: The Curtain Ends(2/2)
Hu Hai clenched his fists, and there were roars in the air from time to time.
"Your Highness."
"Prime Minister Li Si asks for an audience."
The maid's voice suddenly sounded outside the study.
When Hu Hai heard this, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes, but he quickly calmly said: "Please go to the main hall, Prime Minister."
"My master, I will be here in a moment."
"Here!"
All of a sudden!
In the main hall.
Li Si came under the guidance of the maid.
"Prime Minister, please wait here. The young master will arrive shortly."
Hearing this, Li Si nodded slightly and said, "I wonder what Mr. Hu Hai is busy with these days?"
The maid responded respectfully: "Returning to the Prime Minister, in recent days, the young master will go to the study to study until late at night after eating."
"On weekdays, I rarely leave the mansion and interact with other people."
"oh?!"
Li Si was secretly shocked, but he didn't expect Hu Hai to change so much.
Before Li Si could ask too much, a loud shout suddenly sounded outside the main hall.
"I don't know how flattered I am that the Prime Minister came here late at night!"
Hu Hai walked in a hurry, with an unprecedented eagerness on his face.
Li Si bowed his hands and said, "Your Majesty, Li Si, pays homage to the Eighteenth Young Master."
"Young master, you are serious."
Hu Hai rushed to Li Si in three steps and two steps at a time, helped him up, and said seriously: "My words are not exaggerated."
"Since this young master was banned by my father, few outsiders appear in this house..."
"If the Prime Minister can come, I will naturally be extremely happy."
Speaking of this, Hu Hai couldn't help but show a look of loneliness on his face, and he hissed and sighed: "Hey!"
"In the final analysis, I am the one who is to blame! No one else is to blame!"
"That's it! That's all! The past has gone with the wind, so don't mention it!"
When Li Si heard this, he didn't take it for granted and said: "Young Master, there is no need to feel sorry for yourself. Your Majesty is doing this to temper you."
"There is no child in the world who doesn't make mistakes. Fortunately, the young master knows his mistakes and can correct them. Your Majesty has also canceled the young master's grounding."
"I think you are a master, so I should encourage you in this way."
"I hope the young master can regain his confidence and not let down His Majesty's expectations."
When Hu Hai heard this, a look of excitement appeared on his face, he nodded heavily and said: "What the Prime Minister said is absolutely true!"
"My master now realizes his own mistakes, so he studies the classics diligently, and hopes to assist Bage in the future."
"Oh yes! I wonder if the Prime Minister came here late at night, but what is the important matter?"
Li Si raised his hands in congratulations and said, "I came here late at night. I naturally have something happy to tell you."
"oh?!"
"What happy event is this?"
Hu Hai asked eagerly.
Li Si said with a smile: "Of course it is a great joy!"
"Your Majesty intends to give the young master a county, which can be regarded as a training for the young master!"
"I wonder if the young master is interested in taking up his post?"
As soon as these words came out, Hu Hai was stunned on the spot.
"Prime Minister, save me, Prime Minister, save me!"
Hu Hai held Li Si tightly with both hands and almost cried.
Li Si, on the other hand, looked confused and said in surprise: "What do you mean, Master? Is this a gift from His Majesty?"
Hu Hai quickly shook his head and said with tears in his eyes: "I think I have little talent and knowledge. How can I govern this county?"
"If something goes wrong like this, wouldn't it make me irrecoverable?"
"I also hope that the Prime Minister will plead with the Emperor on my behalf and hope that the Emperor will take back his life. Hu Hai is willing to always be by the Emperor's side and will not go anywhere!"
Hearing this, Li Si's eyes quickly flashed with a different light, but he quickly returned to his previous expression and said puzzledly: "Sir, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"If the young master governs well, it might be an opportunity for your majesty to take a new look at the young master!"
"Does the Young Master really not want to know where His Majesty plans to reward the Young Master?"
"What's more, the young master also asked for orders in the court earlier and wanted to lead the army to Hengling to resist the enemy. How could he suddenly refuse such a good thing today?"
Facing the temptation thrown by Li Si, Hu Hai's face was not moved at all, and he said decisively: "The Prime Minister doesn't know something. Foreign enemies are invading, and the people of Da Qin still fight with their lives. As a son of Da Qin, how can you lag behind others!"
"Even if Hu Hai is defeated, he is still willing to throw his head and shed blood!"
"But when it comes to governing a county, which is the foundation of the country, Hu Hai thinks that he has little talent and little knowledge, and it is really difficult for him to take on a big responsibility!"
"I also hope that the Prime Minister will thank my father on behalf of Hu Hai and implore my father to take back his life."
"Even if my father gives Hu Hai the opportunity to serve as a pawn and go into battle to kill the enemy, Hu Hai will never refuse!"
"Why!"
Li Si sighed regretfully: "In that case, it's hard for Li Si to say anything else."
"I should report this matter to Your Majesty truthfully. As for Your Majesty's decision, that is beyond my control."
When Hu Hai heard this, he bowed gratefully and said, "Thank you so much, Prime Minister."
Li Si bowed his hands and said, "Young master, you don't need to be polite."
"It's already late at night, sir, you'd better rest early!"
"Your Majesty Li Si will retire first."
"Prime Minister please."
Hu Hai quickly returned the gift and watched Li Si leave.
Until Li Si's figure gradually disappeared from sight, a chill emerged from Hu Hai's eyes.
"I didn't expect that my father would care so much about his son!"
"First it's Hei Bingtai, and then it's Prime Minister Li Si!"
"Just now, if I choose the wrong son, I will probably end up worse than my eldest brother, right?"
"It seems... I am destined to have no sleep tonight!"
Hu Hai smiled coldly.
Then two lines of hot tears also flowed from his eyes.
"Someone is coming!"
