Qin Official

"Your Majesty is awake?"

As soon as he entered the palace, Zhao Gao immediately put away his ambitious and fierce eyes and burst into tears at the door.

After he got up, he wiped his tears and asked the imperial physician: "Your Majesty has been unconscious for several days. What method did Imperial Doctor Xia use to revive your majesty?"

"It's a medicinal material donated by Haidong, called ginseng."

Xia Wuqie was also very old, so old that his hands were shaking when he was giving the medicine, maybe because the life of His Majesty the Emperor hung in his hands, or maybe because after hearing about the incident in Xianyang, he was afraid that those who were in the Southern Expeditionary Army would Chen Wujiu, his disciple, will implicate himself.

Zhao Gao nodded, but secretly thought, this ginseng was obtained from Haidong by Heifu's trading company in Jiaodong, right? Without this thing, His Majesty the Emperor might not be able to sleep forever.

After entering, they saw that Qin Shihuang was already leaning on the couch, listening to the two prime ministers Li Si and Feng Quji, who were kneeling on the ground on the left and right, telling them about the major changes in the past few days.

From Mo Zhe's assassination to Fu Su's escape, Li Si said while wiping the sweat from his forehead and looking up to observe His Majesty's mood...

Xia Wuji and Zhao Gao also watched Qin Shihuang's every move nervously, fearing that His Majesty would be so angry that he would vomit blood and faint again.

But Qin Shihuang didn't. He seemed unusually calm. The emperor experienced great storms in his life, and also encountered betrayal by countless relatives: father, mother, father-in-law, younger brother, friends, prime minister, general...

Now, he has added his son, the eldest son whom he has the highest hopes for.

There were many emotions in Qin Shihuang's eyes, including anger, confusion, sadness, and disappointment, but in the end, they only turned into a curse in Guanzhong dialect.

"A dog jumps over the wall..."

After that, he waved his hand for Li Si and Feng Quji to retreat, leaving only Zhao Gao and Xia Wuji.

Although he was revived by the ginseng soup that the imperial doctors had enjoyed in recent years, the emperor was still weak and resting with his eyes closed. But just when Zhao Gao thought the emperor was asleep, he suddenly started talking.

"When he was a child, he threw a jade jade in Huayang Palace, and because of fear, he ran away from me and hid in the wormwood in the corner of the palace wall, and got covered in grass thorns."

"I gave him a good beating. If the boy disobeys, he deserves a beating. I will take off his clothes and give him a hard beating on the buttocks!"

But this time, the disaster Fusu caused was more than just breaking a piece of jade.

He almost let the national weapon fall to the ground!

Qin Shihuang slowly opened his eyes and looked at Zhao Gao.

"The Prime Minister reported that there are rumors outside that Fusu wants to collude with Mo Zhe to assassinate me. Oh, I guess this guy doesn't have the courage, let alone the ruthlessness. At most, he wants to cause another 'mischief' in me. At that time, a coup was launched so that I, the 'great harm to the world', could no longer harm the world. I never thought about it, but it was self-defeating..."

"After something happened, with his temperament, he should go to the palace alone to plead guilty. Who forced him to leave, or who coerced him? Going south, he was desperate, who did he want to seek refuge with? Who gave him help in advance? promise?"

Zhao Gao knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, there are indeed many doubts about this, but there is only one thing that is certain. The family members of Marquis Changnan also left together..."

"Is it Hei Fu? Fusu went to join the Southern Army and thought Hei Fu was the Di Kingdom. He didn't want to be Shen Sheng, but wanted to be Chong'er. He thought I was Duke Xiang of Jin?"

Qin Shihuang sighed: "Sadly, the father knows his son, but the son does not know his father."

Is this a problem with my son?

"The father does not believe in the son, and the son does not believe in the father, haha."

Or is there something wrong with the father too?

Qin Shihuang now had to take a break every time he said a word. He closed his eyes again and made a decision after a while.

"Pass it to me."

"No!" Zhao Gao immediately picked up his pen.

"Meng Tian privately allowed Fu Su to escape, removed his post as a guard, and demoted him to a commoner."

"Send Zhonglang Cavalry General Li Liang with a thousand soldiers to pursue Fusu, and then notify the counties of Hanzhong, Bajun, and Dongting along the way. If he cannot catch up, let Fusu escape to Lingnan. All officials in the counties passing by will not Anyone above that will die!"

"If Li Liang and the local officials catch up and accidentally kill Fusu or his wife and son, all the people who are chasing him, whether they are a thousand or ten thousand, will die!"

The two "both died" represented Qin Shihuang's determination. Under this dragnet, Fusu and others had almost no possibility of escaping.

"Except for Fusu, his wife, and son, all the staff and members of the staff will be killed. No one will be spared!"

Qin Shihuang always believed that it was the people around Fusu who led him to a path of no return.

Zhao Gao wrote down the edict one by one. After waiting for a long time, Qin Shihuang didn't say anything for a long time. He only looked at the curtain above his head in a daze and had to ask:

"Your Majesty, what happened after you stopped the young master? Are you taking him back to Xianyang?"

"No."

Qin Shihuang shook his head, with a trace of rejection in his eyes besides disgust.

Father and son should not meet in that way.

"There's no need to come back. I don't want to see him or listen to his complaint."

"Leaving Xianyang, if it is Fusu's own intention, means that he has lost even the last bit of his responsibilities. Since he has abandoned his identity as the eldest son, he is not worthy of coming back."

"If he is coerced by his subordinates, how can a person who can't manage a few subordinates manage tens of millions of beings with different thoughts?"

And if you think about it back to the root, the root of all this is because the future of the empire envisioned by Fusu and what Qin Shihuang wanted are not the same...

Feudalism, prefectures and counties, this is a battle of lines and cannot be changed, and Qin Shihuang did not allow the system cornerstone of the empire to go backwards!

Xia Wuji shuddered beside him.

If the emperor doesn't see Fusu, is he going to... kill his son?

The old doctor knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, please think again!"

"Xia Wuji, you are really old, old and confused. How could I let my eldest son die?"

Qin Shihuang's decisive gaze became softer.

"Fusu was born in eight years. I remember his birthday was on the 19th day of the twelfth lunar month, with heavy snowfall."

Qin Shihuang still remembered that when the child was born, it seemed as if the whole of Xianyang was shouting his name: Fusu. As the eldest son of Qin Shihuang, he was the key for Qin Shihuang to prove that he was "strong" and to rule personally.

It was a cold snowy night outside, but the tender baby with powdery skin in his arms was extremely warm, sleeping soundly on the emperor's arms.

It would be great if he could always be as good as before.

But as he grew up, he became alienated and became disliked by Qin Shihuang.

"He is 29 years old this year and is a father. He has two children, one is four years old and the other is six years old. He thinks that I have forgotten it, but I actually remember it all."

Qin Shihuang closed his eyes.

"After Li Liang stopped Fusu, he took off his clothes and gave him 29 canes in front of his two sons! He took off his clothes and beat him hard on the buttocks."

Qin Shihuang gritted his teeth: "It must be heavy, but don't kill it."

Then what?

"In the Lao Ai Rebellion, I moved his party members and seize the title to more than 4,000 families in Shu. Their houses are mausoleums. I originally wanted to exile Lu Buwei to Shu, but he committed suicide halfway."

Qin Shihuang planned to kick Fusu even further, so far that he would never be able to return to Xianyang, because from the moment he stepped out of Xianyang City, he had lost his qualifications to compete for the throne forever!

Is this a good thing or a bad thing for Fusu?

Qin Shihuang asked: "Aren't Shu County and Ba County building a five-foot road to connect the southwestern Yi? What is the name of the small place that the Shu County captain just conquered the year before last?"

How could Zhao Gao know this? So Zuo Prime Minister Li Si was called in again. He still remembered it, thought about it and said:

"Your Majesty, the area south of Moshui (Datu River) in Shu County is called Qiongdu (today's Xichang). There are countless kings from the north of Yunnan, and Qiongdu is the most powerful. Now it is also undecided..."

"Okay, let's go to Qiongdu!"

Qin Shihuang nodded: "When Fusu came of age, I asked him about his ambitions. He didn't say: 'Sixty or seventy, such as fifty or sixty, Fusu will do the same, and it will take three years to satisfy the people. Just like his etiquette. Are you happy to be a gentleman? Okay, I will let him take his wife and son to Qiongdu, live in his town, and have a household of four hundred. Let him restore his favorite Zhou rites in that remote village and revive him Let’s promote benevolence and righteousness to the barbarians, the coveted feudal society!”

Li Si and Zhao Gao looked at each other. They knew that if Fusu was really caught, this arrangement would be tantamount to exile...

But this is already the best fate for those who lose in political battles and fight for the right to inherit the throne.

It is also the best kindness shown by His Majesty Qin Shi Huang to his eldest son!

At this time, Qin Shihuang spoke again.

"I was ordered to go south a few days ago, and Hei Fu was ordered to go to Zhu City to meet the imperial envoy. Can I still chase him back?"

Li Sidao: "Your Majesty, this is a 600-mile rush, and we are still taking Wuguan Road. Now I am afraid that we have reached Nanyang County and cannot be chased back. Besides, if such a big thing happened, the Marquis of Changnan..."

"In this case, regardless of whether Hei Fu goes to Zhucheng to pick him up..."

With the help of his attendants, Qin Shihuang forced himself to lie down and signaled Zhao Gao and others to put on his clothes. The emperor disappeared for several days, and people in Xianyang were panicked. He had to appear in public view. If the world thought he had collapsed, another incident would probably happen. Chaos in various fields.

"I must go, the southern tour plan remains unchanged!"

Everyone in the room was shocked and bowed down:

"Your Majesty, you can't!"

"Your Majesty, please rest!"

But Qin Shihuang had made up his mind.

The imperial robes, red vests, ribbons, and jade gui were all draped around his body bit by bit. Qin Shihuang stretched out his hands. He had never felt that they were so heavy before, as if he would fall down tiredly even if he walked to the palace wearing them.

"Heifu, he was the stable rock of the empire. He was the person I trusted the most. He has never let me down. He was also the youngest general. Hehe, he is over thirty years old. I am so envious..."

But now, because of rumors and Fusu, the situation has changed.

Meng Tian was imprisoned and Qin Shihuang did not intend to kill him, but at least he would be out of use for the time being.

Wang Ben was seriously ill and may have died earlier than Qin Shihuang.

Li Xin is in the Western Regions and will not be able to come back soon.

Looking around, apart from Feng Wuze, who was guarding Yan and Zhao, but was also aging, and even fell from his horse due to physical exhaustion during a martial arts performance, and was recuperating from his injuries, who among the generals of the Qin Dynasty could fight with Hei Fu?

"Rick is a loyal minister of Duke Xian of Jin. He is good at conquering and fighting. He can be a general when he is out and a prime minister when he is in. But he can also be regarded as a staunch supporter of Prince Shen Sheng."

"However, this same Rick killed two kings of Jin after the death of Duke Xian of Jin..."

In Qin Shihuang's mind, Heifu, who was originally planned to be suppressed a little and left to the second emperor's use in order to prosper in the southern border, has become the most unstable corner of the world!

In Da Qin, there will be no Shen Sheng, Chong Er, let alone Rick!

"I raised him in the army, and it was I who made him a black husband!"

With the help of Zhao Gao, Qin Shihuang put on his imperial crown, which was heavy and shaky!

"Now, I have to go in person..."

Qin Shihuang raised his hand and stabilized the crown himself. The jade strings fell down, clattering, covering his eyes.

"Destroy him!"
