Outside the palace, the accompanying ministers were anxiously waiting, the first emperor was critically ill, and this was a major event related to the country.

Now, the prince has not yet been established, and Fusu has been assigned to Shangjun, which is three thousand miles away from Songhai City.

As the ministers of the humerus beside the First Emperor, Li Si and Zhao Gao will inevitably be ordered to be in danger, but at this moment, the imperial doctor is still doing his best to rescue him.

All the ministers were not allowed to enter the inner court to see the holy driver, and even Zhao Gao was not allowed to enter the CRRC government.

Zhao Gao pulled Li Si until no one came out, looked around, there was no one, and he whispered: "Lord Li, now that Your Majesty is critically ill and fearing that his life will not be long, I have to wait to make plans as soon as possible." ”

"What do you think about Lord Zhao?"

"You and I are both smart people, we don't talk darkly, the leader has an order, and we want to make a decision."

"In this case, the urgent task at the moment is to establish a successor monarch, support a puppet emperor, and at that time, let the puppet emperor Chan be at the head, so that the name can be justified." Lees said.

In ancient times, the rebels paid attention to the fact that the teacher was famous, and even if they rebelled, they had to plate themselves with a layer of gold, so as not to be criticized.

If the Xiao organization can get the empire without bloodshed, it will naturally be the best, and it will not start a war until it is absolutely necessary, of course, that is the worst outcome.

Speaking of which, the two of them thought of a person in unison, Zhao Gao and Li Si said in unison: "Hu Hai!! ”

If he comes to power, it will inevitably attract the dissatisfaction of many people, and even arouse the anger of the people, and when the time comes, the organization will come forward to represent the righteous division to replace him, and he can also win the hearts of the people, which can not be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"The puppet that the leader has cultivated for many years has finally come in handy." Lees said.

Over the years, the leader has done everything he can to cultivate Hu Hai, which has made many people dissatisfied.

It was only at this moment that he understood the foresight of the chief.

The imagination is very beautiful, but it is really difficult to put it into practice, Zhao Gao said: "What if Yingzheng has another secret purpose?!" ”

They all know that the prince most valued by Yingzheng is the eldest son Fusu, if he knows that he is critically ill, he will inevitably make a will, once the will is announced, won't their plan be in vain? !

Li Si showed an indescribable smile, and he sneered, "What's the matter?!" Since it is a secret decree, naturally no one knows the content of it, and now that Feng Qujian is staying in Xianyang, even if we revise the edict, no one will know. ”

Well?!

Zhao Gao's eyes lit up, it was a good way to listen to this method, Feng Quji, who was an eyesore, was not around, who dared to question the authenticity of the edict.

So, the two of them showed a sinister smile.

A few days later, news came from the inner court that the First Emperor had returned to heaven, but this important news was quickly blocked by Zhao Gao.

As the commander of the CRRC government, he still has the right to block the news of the inner court, and in order to leak the news, he killed everyone who knew the news of the death of the first emperor, including the palace maids, eunuchs and eunuchs, and all of them were killed.

In this regard, the news of the "death" of the First Emperor was blocked, and outsiders had no way of knowing.

Zhao Gao walked to the palace of the First Emperor and watched the First Emperor, who had fallen into a state of suspended animation, lying quietly on the dragon couch.

Zhao Gao slowly walked to the edge of the couch, looking at the dead First Emperor, Zhao Gao snorted coldly: "Yingzheng, Yingzheng, you also have today, Lao Tzu has served you for decades, like a dog, let you call and drink, and finally wait for the day you die, rest assured, I will take good care of the Great Qin Kingdom I created for you." ”

"It's just that the Qin State will no longer exist, and your descendants of the Ying family will be buried with you, haha!!"

Zhao Gao looked at Ying Zheng's corpse like a madman, and let out a hysterical roar.

"From now on, I, Zhao Gao, am the emperor, no, I am the emperor, haha!!"

Inexplicably, he was particularly excited, being a cow and a horse for a lifetime, and finally turning over as a serf to sing, it can be said that his life has reached its peak.

The First Emperor was dead, and he had no worries, saying, "But don't worry, the empire you created will last for two more years on your unsuccessful son." ”

Hee-hee~!!

A sharp laughing sound came from Zhao Gao's mouth, and when the laughter stopped, he was frantically rummaging through the palace.

"Where's the edict?!"

Zhao Gao turned the palace of the first emperor upside down, but he didn't find the edict, he understood Yingzheng, and it was absolutely impossible to have no edict.

But after rummaging through the palace, he couldn't find the edict, didn't he write it? Or is it already dead before you have time to write?!

Soon, Zhao Gao dismissed the idea.

After looking for a long time, he even searched all over the beams of the house, but he didn't find it, and finally, he stared at Yingzheng and scolded viciously: "Okay, you Yingzheng, did you guess that someone would come to snatch the edict after death?" In that case, it's easier. ”

If you don't have an edict, then don't you just say what you say?!

Just when Zhao Gao was about to leave, he squinted his eyes, but saw that Yingzheng's body was a little sick, and he stepped forward to take a closer look before he found that the edict was under his body.

So, Zhao Gao kicked the body of the First Emperor away, and Ying Zheng's body rolled from the bed to the ground, Zhao Gao was too lazy to care, he took the edict and opened it: "As expected." ”

He had already guessed that it would be like this, but he still felt angry and angry when he saw it with his own eyes.

In the edict, the first emperor wanted to help Su to return to Xianyang and preside over the funeral, when the edict did not write that Fusu would ascend the throne.

However, anyone with a little brain knows that presiding over the funeral is the biggest hint, because the first king died, and only the crown prince is qualified to preside over the funeral.

"Yingzheng, you are smart for a while, and you are confused, and you didn't even specify who will inherit the throne? Ha ha!! Zhao Gao said excitedly.

Since he didn't say it explicitly, he could tamper with the edict and let Hu Hai preside over the funeral and succeed the unification.

However, how did Zhao Gao know that Meng Yi deliberately asked Ying Zheng to write like this, so that they could show the real fox tail.

Let them do their work on the edict, so that they can be convicted of their crimes, and when the rebellion is put down in the future, they will be left speechless.

After getting the edict, Zhao Gao left excitedly, and before leaving, he spat at Yingzheng, and then kicked several times before leaving.

After Zhao Gao left, Meng Yi came out in secret, he clicked on Ying Zheng's acupuncture points, and Ying Zheng recovered.

Fang Cai Yingzheng only has consciousness, but no action, which can be regarded as another form of suspended animation.

And what Zhao Gao said just now was all listened to by Yingzheng, and after returning to normal, Meng Yi said: "Your Majesty, you understand now, the true face of Zhao Gao and others. ”

Even though I knew that they harbored evil intentions, I was still shocked when I heard it.

The First Emperor clenched his fists and said viciously: "I must break Zhao Gao and their corpses into ten thousand pieces." ”

It is said that it has been popular for a long time, but Zhao Gao has followed him for decades, and he didn't expect that he would be a beast who eats inside and out.

I trust him so much, but what is the result? He actually thought of plotting to usurp the throne, and his heart could be punished.

"It's easy to execute Zhao Gao, but it's the most difficult thing to find out who is behind the scenes, Your Majesty, it's up to the kid next."

"What do you want to do?"

"Compel them to rebel and kill them in the name of justice." Meng Yi said.

If Zhao Gao and Li Si rebelled, then Meng Yi would have a good reason to kill him, the bigger the trouble, the better, and the bigger the movement, the easier it would be to attract the attention of others.

Now that the First Emperor has died, the Xiao Organization will inevitably be unable to hold back, and if they want to take the opportunity to seize the world, they will be able to uproot the Xiao Organization in one fell swoop and completely eradicate them.

"Will they be fooled?"

"Your Majesty, don't worry, they have been planning for so long just to wait for the day when you die, and now they have finally got their wish, how can they let go of this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity?"

Now that the First Emperor has just died, the organization is only afraid that it has long been restless, and it only needs to light another fire, not afraid that they will not be able to burn.

It's just that this fire has to come from Meng Yi himself.

The next day, Zhao Gao held the edict of the First Emperor and announced to the ministers in court:

"I patrol the world in the east, feel the suffering of the people, how can the heavens not be beautiful, want to take my life, go to Songhai and get sick, the ministers know that I am evil and die, and they dare not say anything about death."

"The illness is very good, I feel that my life is not long, woo hoo lament! Pity the empire of the society, no one can bear, sad and hard, Hu Hai is filial piety, quite heartfelt, is to give the eighteenth son Hu Hai for the seal book: "Buried with the funeral will be Xianyang", uphold the way of heaven, and open the mountains and rivers of the empire. ”

(PS: History doesn't know what Qin Shihuang's edict is, so this text is made up by Baozi himself, and one or two sentences borrowed from historical records should be written for everyone.) ）

As Meng Yi expected, Zhao Gao and Li Si really tampered with the edict of the first emperor and changed the eldest son Fusu to Hu Hai, I have to say that the two of them are also bold enough.

After Zhao Gao announced the edict to the public, the ministers all kowtowed to Hu Hai one after another, and shouted with a postscript: "Long live, long live, long live." ”

Seeing the ministers kneeling, Zhao Gao and Li Si glanced at each other, and the corners of their mouths outlined a trace of arc.

However......

Among the ministers, there is one person who does not kneel, this person is Meng Yi, he bows to the emperor, and such a major event is naturally ranked among the courtiers.

Seeing that Meng Yi did not meet the new emperor, Li Si immediately scolded: "Be bold Meng Yi! Why don't you hurry up and knock on the new emperor, do you want to rebel? ”

"The new emperor? Phew! Do you think that no one will know about the shameless act of tampering with His Majesty's edict and supporting Hu Hai? ”

Tampering with the edict? At this point, everyone at the scene was boiling.
