Chapter 36: The Unexpected [Ask for Votes, Ask for Recommendation Votes!] 】
"Ahh
"Impossible!"
Zhong Liang opened his mouth wide in surprise, leaned forward, and the opportunity was about to be pasted on the other party's face, such a move was a great offense to the superior without realizing it!
The main thing is that my heart is too shocked, and it has reached an unacceptable place.
In Great Qin, the First Emperor is the sky!
As long as he is there, Great Qin will be invincible, and even the remnants of the Six Kingdoms can only lie dormant honestly.
But now, someone told him that the sky had fallen!
As an old Qin man who has been loyal to the empire for many years, he absolutely cannot accept this fact!
Zhong Liang stood up slowly, his eyes blank, and his body shook a little.
Muttered, "No... No way... No way! His Majesty the Emperor has a long life, and he will never die! You lied to me, you must be lying to me!
By the way, Your Majesty has also refined the elixir of immortality, which is to live forever! ”
Fusu looked at Zhong Liang, who was sometimes demented and sometimes crazy, and shook his head helplessly.
As an old Qin person, it is indeed difficult to accept this fact.
The First Emperor is almost a god-like existence in their hearts, how can a god die?
Even if it was himself, when he first came here, he felt sorry for the death of the First Emperor.
But when it comes to alchemy......
Those alchemists added everything for alchemy, and even dared to add mercury to their stomachs.
It's strange that such an elixir is not short-lived!
According to some inferences of later generations, Qin Shi Huang's early death was not unrelated to the long-term swallowing of pills.
Whether it is true or not, there is no conclusive opinion, it is just speculation.
One thing is certain, though.
The status of the First Emperor in the hearts of the old Qin people is beyond doubt!
Fusu knelt on the ground, secretly sighed in his heart, and did not bother.
The faith in my heart collapsed, and it took time to digest and calm down.
It's useless to say anything at this time, only if he has figured it out and vented on his own will he be calm.
Da-da-da-da!
A rush of footsteps came quickly.
Fusu turned his head to take a look, and the guards who were being driven outside to guard heard the exclamation and hurriedly rushed up.
Liu Ji stood at the door, raised his hand and stretched out his palm, and said in a low voice: "Don't disturb, retreat!" ”
Chen Song stretched his neck to look at the room, and saw Gongzi sitting calmly on his knees, as if there was no danger, so he put down his hanging heart.
"No!"
He clenched his fists and whispered, and retreated to the distance to wait.
Da... Da... Da...
Fusu's slender fingers tapped rhythmically on the table.
Gradually, Zhong Liang came out of the shock, and his confused eyes also became focused.
Under the rhythmic tapping, it gradually calmed down.
"Whew~!"
He took a deep breath and sat down on his knees again.
In the end, it was the old fritter of officialdom, and after experiencing the initial shock, he also accepted this fact.
But he still asked unwillingly: "Is this serious?" ”
Fu Su bowed slightly, and said solemnly: "Lord County Shou thinks that this son will joke with such a big thing?" ”
No one in the entire Great Qin dared to joke about the life and death of the First Emperor!
Zhong Liang subconsciously shook his head, lowered his head, and frowned in deep thought.
moment
He raised his head suddenly, and his gaze became very solemn.
Said solemnly: "The emperor has died, the court is empty, and the prince should immediately rush back to Xianyang to preside over the government, so as not to be ...... by traitors!" ”
When he said this, he paused.
Everyone is smart, and the meaning of the words is self-evident.
The emperor died, and as the eldest son, he naturally rushed back to Xianyang to preside over the funeral as soon as possible, and then inherited the throne!
Although the eldest son has been appointed as the prince since ancient times, if the throne is vacant and the eldest son does not return for a long time, it will inevitably make some people think otherwise.
Fusu's eyes were calm, and when he saw that the other party's expression did not seem to be fake, he was secretly relieved.
Such a capable official naturally hopes to support him.
If he doesn't support it, then he can only be allowed to move his position.
But fortunately, judging from Zhongliang's performance, he supported it, otherwise he would not have made a proposal to rush back to Xianyang immediately.
However, support is one thing, and some things still need to be explained.
Fusu shook his head with a smile, and said lightly: "Hehe, Lord County Shou doesn't know, some people have already moved their minds. Just yesterday, Zhao Gaoli Si and others made the emperor's decree and asked Ben Gongzi and General Meng to apologize for their crimes! ”
"Kill the erector!"
Zhong Liang's brows suddenly furrowed, and his face showed anger.
Fusu just sat quietly, without the slightest surprise.
can be the feudal officials and county guards, which one is not a person who has won the trust of the emperor and has exquisite thoughts.
is even more aware of the open and secret battles in the court!
Even the military general Meng Tian is skeptical about getting the edict, and if he doesn't even understand this, don't want to sit in this position safely.
Only the pedantic character of the predecessor, who was fooled and lame by Confucianism, would go back to the house and commit suicide after receiving the will despite Meng Tian's dissuasion!
Sitting on an army of 300,000, it hangs ...... in such a daze.
Fusu smiled indifferently: "Why, Lord County Shou doesn't believe that His Majesty will give death to his son?" ”
"Of course I don't believe it!"
Zhong Liang's eyes were firm, without the slightest suspicion.
Just when Fusu wondered why he was so sure.
Zhong Liang lowered his voice and explained: "Childe doesn't know, when you first arrived in Shangjun, the minister also received an edict from His Majesty!" ”
Fu Su raised his eyebrows and immediately asked, "What kind of message?" ”
"This, this ......."
Zhong Liang's face showed embarrassment, and he stammered and didn't know how to speak.
Fu Su smiled indifferently: "Lord County Shou doesn't need to worry, but it's okay to say it." ”
"Hmm!"
Zhong Liang thought about it, gritted his teeth and said: "Your Majesty said that Gongzi's personality is too benevolent, let the ministers find more opportunities to let Gongzi get more blood, so that he can be a qualified emperor in the future!" ”
Fusu raised his eyebrows, and his face flashed with surprise, and then he also understood.
When he was driven to this border place to be a prison army, on the one hand, the emperor was afraid that Meng Tian had an army of 300,000 and let himself be restrained.
On the other hand, it is also to build a team for the future succession to the throne.
It's no wonder that from the memories of his predecessor, he always felt that the county guard had a close attitude towards him, and at first he didn't know how the county guard's resolute character could be like this, but now he understands it.
Zhong Liang is a capable official, and Meng Tian is a famous general.
With the assistance of these two people, plus the deterrence of 300,000 troops, this throne is stable!
No wonder, Zhong Liang was extremely angry with Jiao Zhao, and it turned out that he had already understood the emperor's meaning.
Suddenly letting the heir to the throne commit suicide, and in the form of an edict with heavy troops in hand, that is not the style of the first emperor.
In the eyes of those who know the inside story, it is a manifestation of weakness of heart, a forced bet!
Fortunately, under the prestige of the First Emperor, they won the bet.
Fusu raised his head and sighed, secretly sighing in his heart.
"Predecessor, it's all Confucianism who cheated you!"
