Chapter 184: The Death of the Eternal Phase
Hu Hai watched Li Si stumble away!
Forgiveness is easy. Trust again, it's not that easy.
He understands, and so does Lis!
The palace where Hu Hai is now is just an inconspicuous uninhabited palace among the dozens of palaces in the huge Xianyang Palace!
Under the uncertain oil lamp, Hu Hai stood alone on top of the dark hall! Under the flickering oil lamp, Hu Hai's face was also cloudy!
In fact, everything that happened in Xianyang Palace tonight has become extremely simple by now!
Meng Tian had already handed Hu Hai a list of the nets that Li Si and Zhao Gao had handed over to the First Emperor! At that time, under the boundless imperial authority of the First Emperor, there were Li Si and Zhao Gao clamping each other, and I thought that the list should be detailed!
If there is a discrepancy, then it can only be after the first emperor returns to heaven, Li Si and Zhao Gao are included in the fine work and the dead in the net!
And before, Li Si didn't know that Hu Hai knew about the net, so for the assassination of Xianyang Palace tonight, he would inevitably use some of the dead soldiers recorded on the roster!
The two lists only need to be compared, plus some things that Zhao An knows, it will be clear whether Li Si is involved in this instantly! And in order to prevent Li Si from tampering with the roster, Hu Hai deliberately asked Long Xuan to follow Li Si back to his house to retrieve the roster!
Therefore, after Hu Hai's last chance to Li Si was denied by Li Si, Hu Hai simply ordered Long Xuan to follow Li Si back to his house to retrieve the roster! With Long Wei following, Li Si has no chance to tamper with anything at all!
With or without Li Si's participation, as long as Long Xuan brings the roster back, it will naturally be revealed to the world!
This is also what Hu Hai said before Li Si went out, "Now that you have left this gate, you will only have the friendship of kings and ministers left in Yu I!" The love of the throne, there is no more half a point! The purpose of this last sentence!
All he did was to give Li Si another chance!
However, Li Si still denied it!
In fact, people are the same as trees, the more they yearn for the sunlight in the heights, the more their roots will reach out to the dark ground.
Hu Hai, the same is true for sitting on this throne! There's so much darkness down there!
Lees, is it really as clean as he says?
Hu Hai doesn't know!
…… Long Xuan went for an hour before he came back!
At this moment, it is already the hour (3 to 5 o'clock in the morning)!
In addition to the large volume of the net roster, Long Xuan also brought back a report presented by Li Si to Hu Hai and Li Si's henchman Jing Yun! Of course, the report was written under Long Xuan's surveillance! As for what was written, Long Xuan didn't know!
And for what Li Si said about bringing Jingyun to see Emperor Long Xuan, I don't know what is going on! Therefore, Long Xuan did not directly bring Jing Yun into the side hall, but waited outside the side hall with the dragon guard.
Looking at the four words "Your Majesty's personal enlightenment" on the letter newspaper that had not yet dried, Hu Hai's heart trembled suddenly! Today's Hu Hai is no longer the Bai Ding who didn't know Xiao Seal at all when he first came to Daqin, and he made up his mind, Hu Hai rarely didn't let Long Xuan read it, waved his hand to let Long Xuan and the others step back, and personally opened the report.
"The guilty minister Li Si kowtowed to His Majesty: the criminal minister Ben Chu, born in Shangcai, has been poor since childhood, learned from Xunshi (Xunzi), and learned the way of governing the country and the world; In the first year of the first emperor (247 B.C.), the criminal ministers entered the customs to serve Qin, and it has been said that it has been 38 years since then. ”
Li Si's handwriting is as strict as ever, revealing a strong atmosphere!
"Meng Lu Gong's recommendation, the guilty minister can see the face of heaven, the first emperor Longen, first to the guards, then to the long history, and to worship as the guest, the guilty minister is grateful, carelessly panicked. In the eleventh year of the First Emperor (237 B.C.), the Korean Zheng State incident occurred, and the clan family thought it was true, and the First Emperor drove the six countries to the guest secretary, and the guilty ministers made a letter of admonition to the first emperor to present the first emperor, and returned to Qin. The first emperor Longen, and then to the court lieutenant.
Ten years of time, like a white horse passing through the gap. In the twenty-sixth year of serving Qin (221 B.C.), Great Qin finally became the unprecedented feat of the five emperors and three kings. Abolish the division of the county and the county, the level of Baiyue, the fixed measurement, the currency system, the car with the track, the book with the text. Inherit the kindness of the first emperor, don't suspect it as a criminal outsider, grant the prime minister, the marquis of Jin, there is no retribution, only the old body!
However, the will of heaven is unpredictable, the wind and clouds are impermanent, the Great Qin is like a dynasty when it is said to be high, the first emperor (210 B.C.), the ministers have no leader, the dynasty is chaotic, and the tide of restoration of the people of the six countries is surging.
Every time I think about it, the guilty minister has no shame to be kind to the first emperor! However, God bless Daqin, the first emperor is sacred, His Majesty is majestic and does not lose to the first emperor, if you come again, the guilty minister has no regrets! ”
At this point in the letter, Li Si seemed to be in a very agitated mood, and his handwriting began to be a little messy and scribbled, and Hu Hai often had to carefully identify it for a long time before he could understand it!
"Today's Great Qin, Your Majesty is working hard, wise and majestic, there are Feng Gong, there are Meng Gong, there are countless people with armor on the Ba, the soldiers are strong and brave, and the disaster of the Six Kingdoms is the chicken and the dog. His Majesty's only concern is the missing son, Zhao Tuo of South Vietnam. With the majesty of His Majesty, there should be a solution. The legacy of the clan for more than ten years, the old minister also hid in the suburbs of Xianyang for His Majesty, and the hiding place was known.
The matter of the net, the criminal minister sent to His Majesty's Jingyun also knows, but His Majesty has a question, and he will say everything!
And so far, it has been eleven years since the criminal minister held the high position of prime minister! The power of the people's hearts, the four-character disaster, is still known to the criminals. It's too late to regret it. The guilty ministers are ashamed of the first emperor, ashamed of your majesty, the rebellion in the palace tonight, the thorns of the three dukes, are all from the hands of the criminal ministers.
The guilty minister has no face to face His Majesty, only the courage to ask His Majesty to forgive Jing Yun's sins, everything is caused by the guilty minister, and the criminal minister only dies to thank the First Emperor and His Majesty Long En'er, but when I never see my Great Qin again, I regret it. Long live Your Majesty, the guilty minister Li Si bowed his head and bowed. ”
There's nothing you can't get by, it's just that you can't go back!
Gently put Li Si's letter in his hand on the bronze case, Hu Hai was silent!
After reading Li Si's last report, which was similar to his last words, Hu Hai's original anger and murderous intent towards the assassin were gone at this moment!
Yes, it's just an endless sigh for Li Si's eternal appearance!
originally thought that because of his arrival, Li Si would be able to jump out of the original cycle and get a good death. It's just that I didn't expect that Li Si still embarked on another road of no return again!
It's a pity, just four words are enough to explain Li Si's complex psychology when he wrote this letter!
Power obscured his original wise heart!
Presumably at this moment, Li Si is already dead. Come to think of it, with his old scheming, even if he dies, he will not leave himself with an intractable problem! Hu Hai slowly walked out of the side hall, looking at Half Moon, who had gradually moved west, and thought in a daze.
Although Li Si did not admit it in this side hall, he used another method to fulfill himself and Hu Hai!
Calming down at this moment, Hu Hai already somewhat understood why Li Si didn't admit it, but chose to break it off by himself!
In this side hall, if Li Si admitted that he did it at that time, Hu Hai should have jumped like thunder, scolded him, and let Li Si be dragged down and cut down directly? Or should he be judged directly in front of a large court?
Prime Minister Zuo of Great Qin assassinated the emperor, and it was on the eve of his daughter's canonization as empress! On the night when he was made a prince by the emperor!
Should the people of the world say that Hu Hai has no eyes, or should they scold Li Si for being a white-eyed wolf who can't be raised? Or both?
However, no matter which one it is, spreading this matter will have an extremely bad impact on Hu Hai and Great Qin as emperors! It will cause an earthquake to break out in the entire Great Qin! People with ulterior motives hidden in the shadows in various parts of Guanzhong will inevitably take advantage of the opportunity to cause chaos. The situation in Guanzhong, which Hu Hai had managed to stabilize with great difficulty, would collapse in an instant.
And if Hu Hai secretly killed Li Si directly in this Xianyang Palace, he would also not be able to hide it from the world! After all, Li Si is the prime minister of Great Qin, above 10,000 people under one person, and there are many people headed by him among the three princes and nine secretaries!
Of course, the strength in Hu Hai's hands now cannot be overturned by anyone in the DPRK and China! However, now, in the case of the external troubles of Great Qin, the regeneration of civil strife will only benefit those with ill intentions and Xiang Liang and others in Jiujiang!
Obviously, Li Si saw this and chose to make a decision on his own!
Li Si decided on his own, whether it was for him, Hu Hai, or now Daqin, it was the best way to solve this matter!
Of course, what Li Si did was not just for the sake of Hu Hai and Daqin. Naturally, there is also his daughter Li Yan who is about to hold a post-book ceremony, and the entire Li family to consider!
His death will minimize all the factors that are unfavorable to Great Qin and Hu Hai, so in dealing with Li Yan and the Li family, it is impossible for Hu Hai, as the emperor, to expose his shortcomings!
You're dead, and you're still scheming against me! What a damn one! Hu Hai muttered to himself, but the twitching corners of Hu Hai's mouth proved that the agitation and insincerity in his heart at this moment!
On the night of July 24 in the first year of Great Qin II, Prime Minister Zuo of Great Qin, Taifu, and Tonghou Li Si died suddenly in the study of the mansion!
This first phase in Chinese history, although in the end he still did not escape the fate of not ending well, but it is far better than being split in the vegetable market by Zhao Gaoche in the original history and punishing the nine clans!
At least, he died peacefully and decently! At least, his Li clan survived! At least, his Li clan can continue to enjoy the respect and wealth of the people of Great Qin! Of course, this is in the case that Hu Hai said that he could not settle accounts after the autumn!
The road is at the feet of the Li clan without Li Si. How to walk, only walk through to know!
However, no matter what, this night on the 24th day of July in the first year of Great Qin II will inevitably be recorded in the annals of Great Qin!
"Long Xuan!" Hu Hai retracted his mind and said loudly!
"Your Majesty is here!"
"You lead Long Wei to see Du Teng, take that Jingyun, you and Du Teng go and catch all the Sky Nets hidden in Xianyang City, and kill no one on the spot! At the same time, he ordered Longwei and Hei Bingtai to be on the list, search for people in the net everywhere in Guanzhong, and escort them back to Xianyang, and kill all the dead people! ”
