Chapter 51: Li Si is imprisoned
Many ministers are here today, this is arranged by Zhao Gao, let everyone see today what will happen if you go against him.
"Wechen see Your Majesty."
"The minion has seen Your Majesty."
"No courtesy." Hu Hai Road.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
I didn't have time to sleep today, and Hu Hai was very unhappy, but Zhao Gao said that Li Si and everyone must see him.
As a last resort, Hu Hai must come today, so he is very unhappy to come to see this early dynasty.
After Zhao Gao saw Hu Hai, he stepped back and stood aside with Hu Hai, feeling very comfortable.
"Prime Minister Li Cheng is old, and he still wants to see me, I don't know what to do?" Hu Hai looked at Li Si and felt uncomfortable.
Li Si saluted and said: "Your Majesty, the minister has something to say, and he hopes that His Majesty will take care of it." β
When Zhao Gao heard this, he was very happy, that is, he hoped that Li Si would persuade Hu Hai according to what they said, and Hu Hai would definitely give Li Si a satisfactory answer when the time came-to cut off the door.
The ministers just came to see today, they no longer dared to persuade Hu Hai, Shusun Tong was right, the current court is Zhao Gao.
What did Zhao Gao say? They have to follow along, otherwise they can't get along with Zhao Gao, that is, they can't get along with the emperor, and they only have to die.
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Hu Hai didn't want to hear it, but he knew he had to listen.
Li Si said: "Your Majesty, the war on the front line is tight, and our army's conscription and military supplies are insufficient, so the minister begs Your Majesty to suspend the construction of Afang Palace and concentrate manpower and material resources on the front line. β
When Hu Hai heard this, he was a little disappointed, sighed, and closed his eyes.
Taifu has made this matter very clear, does Li Si really want to rebel?
Li Si continued: "There is also the anti-thief Chen Sheng's big banner of righteousness, which is intended to restore Chu, so that the world is in chaos, and the anti-thief forces are becoming stronger and stronger, and they are invincible.
Since His Majesty ascended the throne, taxes have been heavier, and he has not inspected the world, so that people do not know His Majesty, but only know the prestige of the first emperor.
Now that the thieves are in turmoil, if Your Majesty can take advantage of this opportunity and seize this opportunity, you will definitely be able to ...... when the time comes."
Hu Hai really couldn't listen to it, opened his eyes, and said, "Pro-Zheng?"
"What do you want from me?" Hu Hai said loudly, expressing the anger in his heart.
Zhao Gao smiled and said, "Your Majesty, it's better to let the prime minister finish his words." β
Seeing Hu Hai's anger, Zhao Gao knew that this time Li Sina was in a catastrophe, so he waited for Hu Hai's anger!
Li Si didn't expect things to be like this, Hu Hai was even a little angry, but he still had to say: "If Your Majesty is unwilling to conquer in person, the old minister will lead by example and lead the expedition to defeat the thieves." β
Hu Hai remembered what Zhao Gao said before, Li Si's eldest son was a county guard not far from Daze Township, he didn't say anything, and he might even get involved with the thieves.
Now Li Si said that he wants to recruit in person, so if he wants to be together in this matter, isn't it that Li Si wants to rebel?
"Li Si, you really can, I have worked hard for you, is this how you repay me?" Hu Hai pointed at Li Si and scolded, gritting his teeth, he couldn't believe it.
Li Si was so frightened that he quickly knelt on the ground, thinking to himself why Zhao Gao didn't speak, why did the ministers do this?
When Zhao Gao saw this, he had already guessed the ending, and Zhao Gao was very satisfied with this answer.
"What crime should you be guilty of planning to take advantage of the chaos to rebel?" Hu Hai stood up and said.
Li Si hurriedly explained: "The minister is telling the truth, how can he have the intention of rebellion?"
Hu Hai said disappointedly: "Hehe! Li Si is still quibbling until now. β
Li Si said: "Your Majesty, the minister is telling the truth, how can he lie to you." β
Hu Hai was furious, kicked over the previous cases, and said: "This first point is that if you spread rumors about the chaos in the world, you can disturb the people's hearts, hijack the will of the king, and create public opinion for usurping power."
The second point is that you instigate me to fight in person, and you want to put me to death, and you can make Xianyang's troops empty, and then you can cooperate with the outside and send a coup d'Γ©tat to seize Xianyang.
The third point is that Daze Township was originally under the jurisdiction of your eldest son, so that the anti-thieves are powerful, this is not a long-term conspiracy, so what is it? β
After Hu Hai finished speaking, Zhao Gao stood up and said: "Your Majesty is right, Li Si should have ignored the affairs of the court, he wanted to recruit in person, the purpose was to cooperate with the anti-thieves inside and outside, and the soldiers would be united, and he would take Daqin without much effort." β
When Hu Hai heard this, he said, "Taifu is right. β
Zhao Gao said: "Your Majesty, such a chaotic minister and thief must be severely punished, otherwise anyone will dare to do this in the future." β
Hu Hai nodded, looked at Li Si and said, "Li Si, you are really young and ignorant, and I am also confused, since I believe your nonsense." β
When Li Si heard this, he never imagined that Hu Hai would say such a thing, and his mind went blank in an instant.
When others heard Hu Hai's people, some people thought it was normal, they were used to it, but they were afraid that Li Si would be more auspicious this time.
However, they will not plead, firstly, Li Si is not with them, and secondly, the situation is obvious now, Zhao Gao wants to put Li Si to death, but they don't have the courage.
They don't want to lose their heads for this, and now the emperor says that Li Si is rebelling, and the crime is too big!
Hu Hai said: "Today I only know that you deceived the king and deceived the people, without you, how could my eldest brother die, I will listen to the slander of your villain, and it will cause today's disaster."
You relied on the assistance of me to sit on the throne, fill your pockets, and have more and more courage, and remove your officials, you are still as arrogant, today you have committed two major crimes: one is rebellion, and the other is bullying. β
Li Si smiled, he didn't expect Hu Hai to give him such a charge, but now that he has figured it out, all this is Zhao Gao's trick.
"Li Si, are you rebelling?" Zhao Gao looked sorry and acted like a good person, "You have disappointed Your Majesty!" β
Li Si reprimanded angrily: "Zhao Gao, it turns out that everything is a ploy. β
Zhao Gao said: "Li Si, the slave is loyal to His Majesty, how can he rebel?" β
When the people below heard it, it turned out that Zhao Gao wanted to frame Li Si, so it was no wonder, but the two of them ate dogs, and the public was also very happy.
"Zhao Gao, the villain has misled the country!" Li Si had already thought of his end, and he was already disappointed in the country, and he said it heartbreakingly.
Zhao Gao knelt on the ground and hurriedly said to Hu Hai: "Before, Li Si asked the slave to join him in the same stream, but the slave hesitated, and asked His Majesty to punish him." β
Hu Hai said: "Taifu, please get up, you can tell me in time, it can be seen that you are loyal to me." β
Zhao Gao said: "Your Majesty." β
Looking at Li Si, Hu Hai shook his head and said to Zhao Gao: "Li Si will be at your disposal." β
Zhao Gao hurriedly saluted: "Yes." β
Hu Hai walked slowly, and now only everyone was left, Zhao Gao smiled.
"Zhao Gao villain, villain." Li Si looked back and listened to Zhao Gao's words.
Zhao Gao walked down, looked at Li Si and said with a smile: "Yes, I, Zhao Gao, am a villain, but it's a pity that you Li Si has been in the dynasty for more than 30 years, and you haven't known it clearly until now, which shows how incompetent you are." β
Li Si was stunned by what he said, and he was so angry that he was powerless to refute.
"Li Si will teach you one last lesson, this villain must not be provoked, and the villain must not be humiliated." Zhao Gao smiled proudly, even the dignified Li Si died in his scheme, can he be unhappy, "There are still villains who can't be trusted!" β
"Villain, villain!" Li Sitan sat on the ground, it's over, it's all over!
Zhao Gao said: "Come on, put Li Si in prison, arrest the others, and behead them together." β
Li Si was taken away like this, Zhao Gao smiled, and left.
Everyone looked at Zhao Gao's departing figure and hurried away, and everyone knew that the current imperial court Zhao Gao covered the sky with one hand, and he seemed to be the emperor.
In the past, they might have talked about it on the road, but today they can only rebel against Li Si, knowing that they were framed, but so what?
Success or defeat is a simple truth.
