Chapter 148: Dune Coup

A deep mansion compound, quiet and elegant, through a long corridor, is a study, the layout of the study is very simple, nothing more than some tables, chairs and bookcases, and a few calligraphy and paintings on the wall.

Of course, this is for the layman, for those who know the trade, it is very different, the tables, chairs and bookcases here are carefully made of century-old sandalwood, the four treasures of the study are customized products, and those few calligraphy and paintings are also the peerless genuine works of famous artists.

The real thing, not the b.

A middle-aged man in a fuchsia cardigan robe sat quietly in front of the desk, his eyes were deep, shining with essence, his beard was trimmed exceptionally neatly, his bearing was extraordinary, and he had a sophisticated look.

He was looking at a letter on the desk, this letter was given to Li Rourou by Wang Xiaoming and asked her to bring it to Li Si, so this person is Li Si.

Li Si has read this letter many times, and the content of the letter is very simple, only six words - I can condemn you to life and death!

The tone is extremely arrogant and domineering.

Li Si's brows tightened, revealing a hint of anger, mixed with a little scruples.

"Bang bang" There were a few knocks outside the door.

Li Si said, "Come in." ”

Li Rourou came in with a bowl of ginseng soup, she walked to the desk and put the ginseng soup down.

Then she glanced at the letter, bit her lip, and said, "Arrogant fellow." ”

Li Si sneered, "As long as he has arrogant capital, it is not arrogant, the question is whether he has it?" ”

Li Rou said, "Are you asking me?" ”

Li Sidao: "Yes. ”

Li Rourou thought for a while and said, "I can't say. ”

Li Si showed a strange expression, "Can't tell?" What do you mean? ”

Li Rou said, "I only have one relationship with him, and the impression he gives me is ...... It is...... A ruffian! ”

Li Si snorted coldly, "Ruffian? ”

Li Rou said softly, "Yes, ruffian, he talks like a ruffian and acts like a ruffian." ”

Li Si interrupted, "You mean, my mighty army of Great Qin was defeated and collapsed, and this person turned out to be just a ruffian?" ”

Li Rourou couldn't answer.

Li Si looked at those six words again - I can condemn you to life and death.

After a long time, he gritted his teeth and said, "My life is up to me, not to the sky!" ”

In an inconspicuous inn in the city, Zhang Liang and his entourage were discussing together, originally this trip was to enter Zhao Gao's mansion to save the Tianzhu monk Kumarosh, but as soon as they arrived in Xianyang, before they could save people, they paid one first.

Zhang Liang let everyone speak freely.

Li Shiqi said directly, "In the past, when I was a secret agent of the Royal Ouchi, every time I went on a mission, we would have a pill in our mouths, and our group of brothers agreed that once the mission failed, they would consciously take poison and commit suicide, and never pit their teammates, this time it was Ji Xin who pit himself, and it has nothing to do with people, I think he should follow us, even if there is no poison, he should bite his tongue and commit suicide." ”

Zhang Liangdao: "Really? As far as I know, when you were escorting military salaries in Mangdang Mountain, you were thrown dung and captured, and the mission failed, why didn't you commit suicide by taking poison at that time? ”

Li Shiqi said embarrassedly, "Uh...... That one...... I don't think I said that I just said. ”

Then he glanced at Shen Kongkong, and Shen Kongkong immediately said, "You all know, I used to be a thief, and it is inevitable that I will be arrested after doing our business for a long time, as the so-called coming out of the gang will have to be paid back sooner or later, whoever says that he has not been caught, it is all pure......"

Ziyao said, "So you were also arrested?" ”

Shen Kongkong blushed and said, "It's not important...... important thing is that there is a rule in our industry, no matter who is caught, he can't confess his brother, if he betrays his brother, he will be killed by a ninety-nine eighty-one knife!" So we don't have to save the pretending to be a coercive, and we have to use a knife against him when we get it back, so it's ...... trouble."

Zi Yao said, "But how do you know that he must have betrayed us?" What evidence do you have? ”

Shen Kongkong said, "There is no evidence at all, but I dare to take my noble personality as a guarantee, a person like him, others casually take a red-hot tongs and burn his chest, and he promises to tell him what color his wife's underwear is." ”

When Zi Yao heard this, she blushed and said angrily, "What are you talking about, so what if he didn't betray us?" ”

Li Shiqi hurriedly said, "Alas! You think too highly of him, let's not think about this impossibility. ”

Ziyao finally understood, these two guys were determined not to be saved, this kind of teammate is really affectionate and righteous.

The two of them couldn't count on it, Zi Yao turned her head to look at Zhang Liang and said, "What do you think?" ”

Zhang Liang smiled: "I think what they said makes sense." ”

Well, it can only be said that you are all good teammates in China.

Li Si looked solemn, and looked coldly at Wang Xiaoming's domineering letter - I can condemn you to life and death!

His chest heaved slightly, and it was obvious that he was struggling.

Li Rourou said cautiously on the side, "Father, what do you decide?" ”

Lees didn't answer, he hadn't decided yet.

Li Rourou said again, "Ji Xin has woken up, do you want to hand him over to the emperor?" ”

Li Si's eyes deepened, and he was making a final decision.

Finally, his eyes became firm, and he said, "Take him ......."

"Sanguni-sama!" An announcement came from outside the door.

Li Si frowned, "What's the matter?" ”

"There's a guy named Li Shiqi who is outside the door asking to see him!"

"Eat it?" Li Si's face changed slightly, Li Shiqi was originally a secret agent in the Qin Palace, relying on his whiskers and horses, and climbed to the position of the chief of the secret agent, Li Si knew him, and he had some friendships, but in a mission a year ago, he suddenly disappeared, and there was no news, how could he suddenly appear?

Li Si said in a deep voice, "Bring him in, don't let anyone see it." ”

"Yes!"

Not long after, the door of the study was opened, and Li Shiqi came in with a hippie smile, "Oops! Lee Sang-guk! But it makes me die! ”

Li Si sneered, "Really? How much do you want to? ”

Li Shiqi came up, "I don't see you for a day, I can think of you when I see anything, even when I go to the thatched house, I see that lump of hot Xiang, I feel a little similar to you, you say, this is not a thought?" ”

Li Rourou's face was furious, and Li Si sneered, "Me is the same, every time I see a maggot baby, I can't help but think of you." ”

The two laughed.

"Don't come unharmed......"

"Don't come unharmed......"

Li Si ordered Li Rourou to serve tea, Li Rourou glared at Li Shiqi and went out.

Li Si smiled coldly, "A year ago, you didn't even write a resignation report and said goodbye, do you know, the saint was very annoyed, saying that you fled with money and passed down the holy decree, and if you were caught, you would be chopped into meat sauce and fed to the dogs, hehe...... You dare to come back now. ”

Li Shiqi didn't care and said, "Cut, he's a fart!" ”

Li Si's face sank: "Bold!" How dare you be disrespectful to the Holy One! ”

Li Shiqi sneered, "Pull it down, there are no outsiders here, who are you and me, we all know it in our hearts, who are you pretending to be?" ”

Li Si said angrily: "Hmph! I know your sister! I, Li Sizhongjun, patriotic ......"

Li Shiqi's waist bent when he smiled, "Ahaha...... Loyal and patriotic? Are you sure you're talking about yourself? Hehe, if you are really loyal to the monarch and patriotic, then it should be the eldest son Fusu who is sitting on the Jinluan Hall now! Is that right? Hey! ”

Li Si looked shocked and speechless, and Li Shiqi broke the earth-shattering conspiracy of the year.

Lees's mind went back to that night three years ago......

That night, the first emperor's eastern tour team passed through the sand dunes, and Zhao Gao suddenly passed down the first emperor's edict, saying that he would stay in the sand dunes tonight.

The First Emperor was no longer good, and Li Si was horrified.

The first emperor dictated, announced the inheritance of the throne to the eldest son Fusu, Li Si wrote the edict for the first emperor, and then Qin Shi Huang covered the jade seal, put it into the Longyin treasure box, and when this qiē was done, Qin Shi Huang was killed.

In this way, before the edict could be issued, when Li Si was about to walk out of the military tent to announce the death of the First Emperor, Zhao Gao stopped him......

Zhao Gao sneered: "Are you going to send out this edict?" ”

Li Si was shocked in his heart, but said in a deep voice, "Of course." ”

Zhao Gao arched his hand and said, "Then, the old slave can only worship Lord Xiangguo in advance!" ”

After speaking, he really bent down and made a deep bow.

Li Si was furious: "You! ”

Zhao Gaoyin smiled: "What? Do you think the old slave is a brain cramp? ”

Li Si said coldly: "Otherwise? ”

Zhao Gao sighed and said slowly, "The eldest son, Fusu, has always been at odds with Lord Xiangguo, if he ascends to the throne, Lord Xiangguo, do you think you will still be Xiangguo?" Hehe, do you remember that execution ground in Xianyang Market? There, you personally beheaded a lot of ministers in the court, hey, the way those adults looked before they died, it was a miserable ...... Hehe, Lord Xiangguo, don't you think, you're not far from that end? ”

Li Si was silent, his hands trembling slightly.

Zhao Gao said coldly: "Lord Xiangguo has always said that he is loyal and patriotic, but the old slave dares to ask...... Be loyal to a king who has died...... Is it really necessary? ”

Lees's will began to waver.

Zhao Gao saw it in his eyes, and deliberately sighed again, "The old slave is originally from Zhao State, and Lord Xiangguo is also from Chu State, if you say that you are loyal to the monarch and patriotic, then why were you not loyal to the King of Chu back then, but came to Qin State thousands of miles away?" In the end, it's not for those four words - glory and wealth! ”

Li Si listened quietly.

Zhao Gao continued, "Since it's for glory and wealth, then stop talking nonsense about loyalty and patriotism all day long, because ...... It's disgusting to hear! ”

Li Si spoke, "It's you who is disgusting, you seem to be thinking about your own appearance, in fact, you are for your own glory and wealth!" ”

Zhao Gao then said, "Yes! I'm just for the glory and the riches! For the sake of these four words, I did not hesitate to wave a knife from the palace with my brother and run to be a eunuch, so you and I are the same people, but I am more shameless than you. ”

Zhao Gao's words were very thorough and unreserved, he was determined to give it a go.

The problem is that Lisken won't go with him.

Li Si glanced at the dim light, the eternal sleeping Emperor Shi, standing for a long time, because of the appreciation of the First Emperor, he was able to become the world-powerful Xiangguo from a pen-holding official, step by step, Li Si has always been grateful to the First Emperor.

But after staring for a long time, Li Si finally said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty...... There's no way you're going to shelter Wechen anymore, can you? So...... Wechen can only ...... Make a living for yourself! ”

Zhao Gao smiled with satisfaction.

They found the eighteenth son Hu Hai, and after some flickering, Hu Hai agreed.

Then they forged a fake edict and sent someone to send it to Fusu at the border pass urgently, ordering him to kill himself with the general Meng Tian!

After receiving the exact news of Fusu's suicide, Hu Hai, Zhao Gao, and Li Si ordered the convoy to travel day and night and quickly return to Xianyang. In order to continue to deceive the subjects, the convoy did not dare to take a shortcut back to Xianyang, but put on a posture of continuing to patrol and made a detour back to Xianyang.

They concealed the death of the First Emperor, but at this moment it was the height of summer, and it didn't take long for the body of the First Emperor to emit a foul smell, in order to hide people's ears and eyes, Zhao Gao even ordered someone to buy salted fish and put it in the First Emperor's car to cover up the smell, he was right, loyal to a dead king, it is really no longer necessary.

As soon as the group returned to Xianyang, they immediately announced the death of the first emperor, and lied that the first emperor had decreed that the eighteenth son Hu Hai would succeed him, so Hu Hai became Qin II.

But the scheming Li Si prepared a way back for himself, that is, he did not obey the order of Qin II to destroy the real edict, but secretly handed over the edict to his illegitimate daughter Li Rourou and his henchman Liu Cang, and ordered them to hide in case of accidents......
