Chapter 79: Referring to the Deer as a Horse
In the palace, Hu Hai often did not go to the early court, and all the ministers were accustomed to it, and there was nothing to do, and there was no one to manage the entire court, and they were all sweeping the snow in front of their own doors.
Zhao Gao rarely came to Hu Hai's palace for fun, and Hu Hai was unhappy, so Zhao Gao would disturb his Yaxing, but Hu Hai didn't dare to show it.
"Teacher, why are you here, don't you have a good rest......" Hu Hai greeted with a smile.
"Tomorrow morning!" Zhao Gao directly explained the intention, and he was straightforward, and his tone was like a courtier treating the emperor, which was clearly the tone of an order.
Although Hu Hai was also slowly unhappy with Zhao Gao's tone, he didn't dare to have any dissatisfaction: "Teacher, this is good, why do you want me to go to the early dynasty?" ”
"I'll go if I tell you to, I have important things to do!" Zhao Gao was a little impatient.
"Okay, teacher, tomorrow morning!" Hu Hai said with a smile, but he scolded Zhao Gao in his heart for not taking him, the emperor, in his eyes at all.
Zhao Gao shook his hand and left, ignoring Hu Hai at all, obviously Zhao Gao already knew that Hu Hai could not threaten him.
As soon as Zhao Gao left, Hu Hai's smiling face sank instantly, this Zhao Gao used him, and now he doesn't take him in his eyes at all, but Hu Hai is helpless, all the power is in Zhao Gao's hands, and there is no minister in the court who recognizes him as the emperor.
On the second day, the ministers came to the morning court early, Hu Haishan came late, and the ministers were surprised, and they didn't react for a while, and they forgot to say goodbye.
"Uh-huh......" Hu Hai coughed awkwardly.
"Ministers see the emperor, long live my emperor!" Only then did the ministers react, and they began to greet Hu Hai with uneven food.
"All Aiqing, let's be flat!" Hu Hai was helpless.
"Emperor Xie!"
……
"Your Majesty, the old minister is one step late, please forgive me!" Zhao Gao came over at this time, and deliberately shouted forgiveness in his mouth.
But that tone, attitude, where is there a person who seems to ask for forgiveness, the whole person is yin and yang, and goes straight to Hu Hai's throne, right next to Hu Hai.
All the ministers dared to be angry but didn't dare to speak, and Hu Hai didn't dare to attack, so he could only say: "The prime minister has worked hard and made great achievements!" What a sin, come, give a seat! ”
Zhao Gao was very satisfied, and unceremoniously sat beside Hu Hai, sitting side by side with the Son of Heaven.
"Prime Minister, this is ......" Hu Hai asked Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao said something last night.
"Oh, look at the old minister's memory, he is busy with things every day, and he almost forgot about this stubble, come here, bring the horse up and present it to the emperor!" Zhao shouted.
Immediately, a few soldiers carried a cage up to the court, and this Zhao Gao simply regarded the palace as his own, entering at will and arranging things at will.
Where is the horse in the cage, it is clearly a deer, many ministers don't know why, they are thinking about which one Zhao Gao is playing.
Hu Hai was already mediocre, and he didn't have too many fancy intestines, so he said directly: "Prime Minister, where is this horse, it's clearly a deer!" ”
Zhao Gao smiled and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the emperor said that this is not a horse, it is a deer, but the old minister thinks that this is a horse, now I want to ask you to assess, is this a horse or a deer?" ”
After Zhao Gao finished speaking, he looked at the ministers with a smile, waiting, and the ministers were talking about it below, some of them couldn't cry or laugh, and shook their heads again and again.
Hu Hai was very confident at this time and whispered to Zhao Gao: "Teacher, you will be embarrassed now, this is clearly a deer, you should be too tired, old eyes are dizzy, you should have a good rest!" ”
"Yes, that's not necessarily, you can look at it, see if I'm old and dizzy, or if you're too young and ignorant!" Zhao Gao is very confident and presumptuous.
Hu Hai's face was displeased, so he waited to see what the ministers said.
"Okay, I think you all have your own answers, now the old minister has the courage to call the shots, if you think it's a deer, please stand on the left!" Zhao Gao said with a smile.
There were a few ministers who stood on the left side immediately, and the rest of the ministers stood still and did not move, and these ministers standing on the left side reacted, but at this time they could only stand on the left side.
Zhao Gao glanced at Hu Hai with great satisfaction, and then said: "Then you think it's a horse, please stand on the right side!" ”
As soon as Zhao Gao finished saying this, many ministers hurriedly stood on the right side, accounting for the vast majority of the ministers in the court, and only a few wavering ones were still standing in the middle and did not move.
Hu Hai's face became very unnatural, and he finally understood which one Zhao Gao was playing, and used a deer to say that it was a horse, to see how many ministers of the DPRK and China would agree with him Zhao Gao's absurd views.
The result was that Zhao Gao won, and Hu Hai felt the crisis for the first time, and he was just a puppet after all.
"Thank you for pointing out to me and the emperor whether this is a horse or a deer, obviously, the emperor, I, Zhao Gao, am not dizzy, this is indeed a horse, then give it to the emperor, it can be regarded as a piece of the old minister's heart!" Zhao Gao said proudly.
"Haha, then thank you Aiqing!" Hu Hai laughed dryly and said twice.
"Do you have anything else to do?" Hu Hai asked.
No one spoke, and Hu Hai could only announce his retreat from the dynasty.
……
As soon as Zhao Gao retreated, Zhao Long immediately stepped forward: "Prime Minister, what should I do next?" ”
"Do you remember how many people said it was a deer?" Zhao Gao asked.
Zhao Long: "Remember! ”
"Kill!" Zhao Gao said ruthlessly.
"No!" After Zhao Long finished speaking, he turned around and left.
"Wait!" Zhao Gao shouted to Zhao Long, "Those few people in the middle of the station are all killed!" ”
"Yes!" Zhao Long said.
Then there was a river of bloodshed, and the miserable ministers of the DPRK and China were killed, and those who were killed were all those who told the truth and those who waved.
Hu Hai even drinks and enjoys himself every day, wanting to numb himself with alcohol, he should also know that he will make Zhao Gao unhappy one day, and Zhao Gao will probably do something to him.
But Zhao Gao's ambition is getting bigger and bigger, and after this well-designed incident of pointing the deer as a horse, Zhao Gao couldn't bear it anymore, and was ready to find an opportunity to kill Hu Hai and ascend the throne as the emperor himself.
The classic historical allusion of referring to the deer as a horse soon spread to Fang Mu's side, the world is laughing at Zhao Gao's absurdity, Hu Hai is incompetent, and the ministers are also incompetent, no one in the court now dares to take the lead in confronting Zhao Gao, in fact, none of the ministers recognize Zhao Gao.
"Referring to the deer as a horse, it's quick, Brother Li You, you go and prepare, you can enter the palace immediately, the time is almost ripe, Zhao Gao will let him live a few more days!" Fang Mu knew that Zhao Gao was going to kill Hu Hai next, and he wanted to be the emperor.
"Okay, I'll do it!" Li You was excited when he heard that Fang Mu finally began to say that he was ready to make a move, and Li You had been waiting anxiously for a long time.
