Chapter 4: An Unexpected Assassination
Fusu went, Yinggao knew that his next stop was to go to Shangjun to meet Meng Tian, and the first emperor's patience with his eldest son had reached the threshold, although he would not be excluded from the sequence of heirs, but it was true that he didn't want to see him again for the time being.
The reason why Yinggao didn't follow the past is very simple, once he followed Fusu, he would almost definitely make the first emperor think that he was admonishing Fusu together, but for the first emperor, Lao Tzu was just fooled by a few alchemists, and the thief was not caught, and it was already very faceless to take hundreds of alchemists to get angry.
As the most important son of the first emperor, Fusu can be sent to repair the Great Wall and have the opportunity to reconcile with Meng Tian at the same time, and there are 300,000 troops on the side, which can be regarded as a yellow card warning, indicating that if you continue like this, the issue of the heir will have to be reconsidered. But if grandma doesn't love Yinggao, who doesn't love uncle, it's not necessarily what happens, and he won't take this risk.
Back in the house, Yinggao had to start thinking about countermeasures again, Fusu went, I am afraid that the end is doomed, what he can do is undoubtedly only to make amends, after thinking for a long time, Yinggao had to sigh and go out again, and his destination is naturally Fusu's mansion, he was not persuaded in advance, but after going to Shangjun, it is not that there is no chance to fight back, what he has to do is undoubtedly let Fusu pay attention to his own situation and stop feeling good about himself.
When he arrived at Fusu's mansion again, it had been three or four hours since he left the last time, and the slaves and maids in the mansion all had gloomy faces. Yinggao, who was in a hurry to see Fusu, didn't see it, and in the shadows not far from the door of Fusu Mansion, a pair of hazy eyes were staring at him who entered Fusu Mansion, and then slowly disappeared.
The attendant led Yinggao to Fusu, and Fusu sat there as if he hadn't seen it, full of decadence.
"Why is this so, brother? Could it be that my father did not listen to his brother's advice? ”
Pretending to know nothing, Yinggao knelt in front of Fusu and asked with concern. Although he despises Fusu in his heart, he can't say that you didn't listen to persuasion before, but now you're honest, right? What he wants to do is to cultivate his sense of distress in helping the Soviet Union.
"My father really killed all the four hundred and sixty monks, even if Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng were at fault for bullying the king, but how could I catch all the monks, under my hard persuasion, I was sent by my father to Shangjun in anger to assist General Meng Tian to build the Great Wall and fight against the Huns, and I will set off tonight, it can be seen that my father has lost confidence in me!"
With this sentence, Yinggao knew that it was perfect to describe Fusu's mood at this time with frustration. From the eldest son who is the most important, to being sent to Shangjun in boredom, the gap is indeed something that cannot be perceived by non-personal experience.
Ying Gao knew that such a Fusu, he could only persuade him, but fortunately, in his previous life, he had also studied the state of mind of the first emperor, so he approached and said: "If my father really lost confidence in my brother, how could I let my brother supervise the 300,000 army, and General Meng Tian is a person who is extremely trusted by his father, and his brother Meng Yi is a favorite minister in front of his father, didn't my brother feel that although this is my father's punishment, but it is also a chance for my father to give my brother?" ”
Hearing this, Fusu finally raised his head and looked at Yinggao, obviously waiting for his next words, the huge blow had made Fusu forget that his younger brother, who was supposed to be on the same front, may not have said as much as he did today in the previous year.
"My brother is now respected by hundreds of officials in the court, and the people at the head of the Qianqian also know the name of my brother's virtue, the only thing missing is military power, my brother is going to reconcile with General Meng Tian, and the 300,000 border troops will not listen to my brother's orders when they arrive, isn't it a great thing, and in the middle of the court, Meng Yi will inform his brother and General Meng Tian that no matter how bad it is, the younger brother will also pay attention to it, and he can't hide it from his brother."
Ying Gao had already figured it out before, this Daqin, which was full of holes, if it could really be managed by Fusu, wouldn't it be beautiful if he only clicked on key issues. Otherwise, this huge Daqin, just reviewing and reading the folds every day, where else can he have time to enjoy life, Fusu has a benevolent temperament, and he is in the same camp as himself, so Yinggao didn't pay any attention here, he really hoped that he could take the throne and be the one who stood behind the emperor.
"Having said that, my father's disappointment in me is true......"
Obviously, for a person like Fusu, who is innocent and has few strings, what he cares about most is his father's attitude.
"Father's love for his brother, but the depth of his love, the responsibility is just that, the brother is gone, the only thing to pay attention to is the father's body, in recent years, the father has been frequently consumed pills, the body has been much worse than before, in case the brother has changed when he is in the county......"
"Silence! How can such remarks be made indiscriminately? If you are heard by someone with a heart, even if you are the prince, you will not escape heavy punishment! ”
Like last time, Yinggao didn't finish speaking, and was blocked back by Fusu, when he wanted to speak again, Fusu had already stood up and said helplessly: "It's already a little dark, my father ordered me to leave Xianyang before dark, and if I don't set off, I will make my father unhappy......
Ying Gao's most important words at this time have not been reminded in place, so naturally he will not return home, and hurriedly said: "Gao is willing to send my brother out of the city, ten miles outside the city!" ”
Yinggao's support naturally moved Fusu quite a lot, because Shangjun is not very far away from Xianyang, and it can be reached in a few days by horseback, so Fusu did not carry many things, only a team of guards to protect him, and Yinggao also staggered on a horse, following Fusu's side.
Due to the many people on the road, there was no chance for Ying Gao to open his mouth at first, but he was sent to ten miles, and the sky was already dim, Ying Gao approached Fusu and said: "Brother, can you take a step to speak, some words, Gao is really like a fish in the throat." ”
This time, Fusu was very face-saving for Ying Gao, a few steps faster in the belly of the horse, and slightly distanced himself from the guards behind, obviously to make it easier for Ying Gao to speak.
Seeing that he finally got the opportunity, Ying Gao hurriedly said: "Brother, after two years at most, my father will ......"
Just when Yinggao said this key, suddenly there was a sound of horses' hooves in his ears, Yinggao subconsciously turned around, only to hear a 'poof' sound in his ear, and then his face was cold, as if something was splashed on his face.
When Yinggao turned back again, the scene in front of him almost frightened him and fell off his horse, but when he turned around, Fusu didn't know where he was injured, and there was blood around his mouth and nose, and it was Fusu's blood that sprayed on Yinggao's face just now.
Yinggao, who had never seen such a situation in his previous life, opened his mouth for a while but couldn't say anything, so he could only tremble and dismount to support Fusu, but soon Fusu was picked up by his own guards, Yinggao saw that the person who assassinated Fusu rode a fast horse and was about to run away, but one of Fusu's guards opened his bow and arrow between the lightning and flint and hit the back of the heart, and fell off the horse.
But when Fusu's guards approached the assassin, something happened again.
