Chapter 64: Li Si's Inner Demon
In history, Hu Hai can be said to have been single-handedly crowned the emperor by Zhao Gao and Li Si. Of course, among them, Yao Jia, the head of the Jiuqing, is indispensable, and one of the Jiuqing, Fengchang Hu Wujing, Zheng Guo, the history of Zhisu Nei, and Shaofu Zhang Han are indispensable.
Of course, if Meng Yi, who was Lang Zhongling and concurrently served as the emperor's study chief at that time, was still in the army, if the first emperor did not let Meng Yi go to Langya to "pray for the mountains and rivers", then it would be absolutely impossible for Meng Yi to be the emperor in Huhai.
If it was Wang Jian or Wang Ben who was in charge of the Jiuyuan army at that time, then they would definitely be able to serve the country tenaciously and bravely raise troops to support Fusu to succeed to the throne, then Hu Hai would definitely not be able to be the emperor, but unfortunately although Meng Tian is benevolent, righteous and faithful, and uses soldiers like a god, there is no doubt about the defects in his surname, he has never been these two people.
Of course, history doesn't have so many ifs.
History also proves that Zhao Gao was a complete loser, and the reason why he supported Hu Hai was only because Hu Hai followed him to learn the laws of the Qin Dynasty since he was a child, and obeyed him, and Hu Hai succeeded to the throne to better implement his purpose of usurping the country.
Li Si is different, he pushed Hu Hai to succeed to the throne, firstly because he was his son-in-law to hold the power of the world, and secondly, because Hu Hai was his son-in-law.
He took it for granted that Zhao Gao was just an internal servant and did not need to be worried, and Hu Hai would definitely be able to restore Daqin and create an immortal cause under the assistance of his own supervision, not only to realize his own concept of governing the country, but also to have a famous name in history.
Fusu succeeds to the throne, then Meng Tian and Meng Yi, who are inseparable from Fusu and praised by the world, will definitely replace themselves and become the rulers of Great Qin, so he will be away from the court and lose all his rights, which is what Li Si is most afraid of.
And Zhao Gao grasped Li Si's point, pretended to recognize Li Si as the master, and successfully pulled Li Si onto his thief ship.
But the fact is that Li Si takes it for granted, Zhao Gao is not something he can control, and Hu Hai is not easy to assist, and the final result is that Li Si was accused by Zhao Gaoluo, and was beheaded in the city by Hu Hai's edict, and his family was wiped out.
Hu Hai killed Zhao Gao like lightning on the eastern patrol, returned to Xianyang by coercion, and took charge of the government, which made Li Si fall into deep anxiety, betraying Hu Hai to find out the truth about the succession Even if there is no warning from Hu Hai, Li Si will not dig his own grave and tell it, because he is not Zhao Gao, and he has not reached the point of breaking the net.
But Hu Hai's deep vigilance and precautions against himself also made Li Si restless, Zhang Han, who was originally inseparable from him, is now Hu Hai's hardcore confidant, Hu Hai's reuse of the Montessori brothers, Wei Yi made Li Si feel that his status was about to be lost.
Therefore, when Hu Hai Xing raised the matter of Qingzhang land, Li Si kept silent, he knew very well that although the ministers of the court and the central government were loyal to Daqin, when it came to the interests of the family and themselves, they would never let Hu Hai dig out his heart and lungs in three sentences.
Even if he has the intention to hand over the land and let Hu Hai grant the land to the people, but in a huge family, there will always be people who disobey the yin.
Li Si wisely handed over all the excess land in his palace, but secretly contributed to the actions of the other ministers and noble families in the court, he wanted to let Hu Hai see his important surname through this matter, and he wanted to prove his value in this Great Qin court.
Acting as an agent for the world's political affairs, what he originally wanted with all his efforts, thoughts, and dreams, was sent into his arms by Hu Hai lightly in such a situation.
Happiness came too suddenly, and Ren Lisi's decades of eunuch life and holding power couldn't help but lose his mind in this moment.
Wei Yi, who was sitting in the main hall, was also stunned by Hu Hai's unprepared words, looked at Li Si, who was distracted, and then looked at Hu Hai, who was smiling kindly, his mouth opened, but he didn't say it in the end.
"Why doesn't the prime minister want to share my worries?" Hu Hai looked at Li Si, who was distracted, and smiled.
"No, no, no, the old minister is willing." Li Si suddenly sobered up and hurriedly said, and then thought about whether he was too eager to do this, and hurriedly said: "No, no, no, the minister is not ......" Speaking of this, he suddenly stopped again, and the things he pursued for a lifetime were close at hand, but he could no longer say anything to refuse.
At this time, Li Si had already reacted to his gaffe, and suddenly felt that his face was hot, and he took a long breath helplessly, and solemnly got up and bowed to the ground and said, "Your Majesty forgives your sins." The old minister lost his temper. ”
Hu Hai and Wei Yi also didn't expect that Li Si, who had always been calm as a mountain, would be so gaffe and so eager in the face of this issue. Hu Hai's eyes flickered, he glanced deeply at Li Si, who was kneeling on the ground, raised his hand and said: "Prime Minister, please get up, I love Qing's heart, I know it very well, and I am very relieved." ”
Is this the demon you made a desperate attempt to push yourself to the throne than to seek skin with the tiger? What about you?
Wei Mi has a deep friendship with Li Si, and when Wei Mi first arrived in Xianyang, he has been living in Li Si's mansion when he has not been awarded any official position. He has always been very clear about Li Si's heart, but at this moment, seeing Li Si so out of shape, the corners of his mouth moved, and finally turned into a depressed sigh.
It can be said that Wei Yu now understands Hu Hai's mind the best, if the series of actions taken by Hu Hai when he first returned to Xianyang is considered ideal, then Hu Hai has gradually begun to face the reality and begin to face the turbulent court of Daqin.
After passing through the Qingzhang land, Hu Hai wisely gave up the idea of playing with the ministers of the court, and simply threw this burden to Li Si, but grasped the most basic thing, that is, the military power of Daqin.
Hu Hai's pro-government, weakening Li Si's authority, will inevitably cause Li Si's backlash, of course the decree can be issued, but Li Si can make your decree out of the court, but it can't be implemented.
Li Si is in charge, then Hu Hai can directly order Li Si to do whatever he wants, and everything else will be handled by Li Si, whether it is the backlash of the ministers in the court, or the infamy of the people, Li Si will face it.
Hu Hai can prepare for the restoration of the Six Kingdoms with peace of mind, and no longer have to face the various thoughts of the ministers in the court. Even if the officials in the world are all from Li Si's gate, as long as all the troops in the world are in the hands of Hu Hai, then Hu Hai can give it today, and he can also take it.
Wei Yi saw it clearly, and Hu Hai also understood it.
Of course, if all this is not Li Si's own experience, then he must be able to see it more clearly than Wei Yi, as the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed with bystanders, but unfortunately Li Si, who is demonic, has lost his state of being a planner.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Lisshane stood up.
"In this way, I will entrust all the things in my Great Qin world to the prime minister, and I only need to report the results to me, and I will have someone stamped it. But I have a request, and Aiqing must keep it in mind. Hu Hai changed his words.
"The old minister obeys His Majesty's will!"
"Benevolence should be the main thing in governance, supplemented by the law; Let the people of the world recuperate and recuperate, supplemented by political achievements and political merits; develop agriculture and open up industry and commerce; There is also the matter of exempting the edict of the world's Yao Fu, if any officials dare to collect taxes privately, they will destroy the nine clans! Qingzhang's land statist, Ding, livestock, and land granting were also handed over to Aiqing.
Aiqing only needs to inform me of the results of each county. If there are people among the officials who accept bribes and bend the law for bribes, they will destroy the nine clans! I will personally lead the army to quell the calamity of the Six Kingdoms, and Aiqing should guard the foundation of my Great Qin for me. Hu Hai said.
"Your Majesty! The old minister obeys the order! Li Si knelt respectfully in the tunnel.
