Chapter 13: The Clouds Move in All Directions
Xianyang Palace, in a partial hall.
The dim candle flame flickered, reflecting Hu Hai's somewhat nervous face.
He was the only one in the hall, and it was unusually quiet.
Hu Hai had words in his mouth, but he didn't know what to say.
Outside the door, there was a soft sound, and the sound came into Hu Hai's ears, like a lightning strike.
Hu Hai got up suddenly, opened the door, and saw a little eunuch who had never seen him standing at the door, saluting Hu Hai.
"Childe."
"Come in!"
Hu Hai stretched out his hand, pulled the little eunuch in, and hurriedly closed the door of the palace.
"What's going on? What did Master say? ”
Hu Hai grabbed the little eunuch and asked with a little anxiety.
"Back to Childe's words, Grandpa didn't say anything, the little one came to tell Childe about the current situation."
"Grandpa's meaning is to let the son make his own decision."
"Say! Say it! ”
Somehow, Hu Hai felt dry at the moment, and his eyes looked directly at the little eunuch in front of him, looking a little scary.
The little eunuch bowed slightly and spoke softly.
"Your Majesty came out of Ganquan Palace, and he didn't bring his son Fusu."
"It is rumored that Your Majesty will let Gongzi Fusu go to the court tomorrow and confront the hundred officials, but the slave doesn't know what the specific confrontation is."
"Imperial Hall...... Confrontation of hundreds of officials! ”
Listening to the words of the little eunuch, Hu Hai repeated it again, and then his eyes burst into ecstasy.
"Good! Good! ”
"Father let Fusu confront Baiguan, that is faith! Believe it! ”
"You go, tell the master, let him find a way to help me contact some people, and put pressure on Fusu in the court!"
"I ...... I'm going out, I'm leaving! ”
Hu Hai was a little excited, so much so that he was a little incoherent.
He didn't pay attention to the little eunuch, but turned his head directly, opened the door of the temple and walked out.
The little eunuch didn't speak, turned around and blew the lamp in the hall, slowly walked out of the temple door, closed the door, and then took a broken step and quickly disappeared into the darkness.
At the same time, Ganquan Palace.
After Fusu had dinner, he went into the bedroom to rest, but Zhao Ji looked anxious, and her face was cloudy.
"Lao Tian!"
Zhao Ji suddenly spoke, and Tian Shuo on the side immediately stepped forward and bowed.
"The old slave is here."
"Go, go to Li's house, and make today's thing clear to General Li."
"Let him contact some people and help Su talk in the court!"
Zhao Ji looked at Tian Shuo with a bit of decisiveness in her eyes.
"Also, I'll do it tonight for you to figure it out, hurry up!"
"The old slave obeys."
Tian Shuo bowed and saluted, and turned his head away.
Zhao Ji looked at the candle flame in front of her, the candlelight reflected on her beautiful face, but it was a little cold.
"Move me Su'er, I will let you die a good death!"
"Whoever it is!"
Bedrooms.
Fusu sat on the soft collapse of the bedroom, frowning slightly, thinking about what happened today, and had the feeling of being on a roller coaster.
In the past four years, he was cautious in front of Yingzheng, for fear of a little mistake.
He knows Yingzheng and his people very well, and before he crossed over, he had watched books and TV series related to the history of the Qin State more than once, and the Qin Emperors in them were tyrannical and suspicious.
In terms of implementation, the current Yingzheng is indeed like this, with a perverse personality, suspicious and tyrannical.
It's just that he is very good to his close ministers and children, much better than other founding emperors.
Today's events, although Fusu was unexpected, he has been preparing for a long time.
After getting the system, Fusu had an inexhaustible supply of money, and he used these money to spread his eyeliner in Xianyang and do business, in order to accumulate strength for himself in case of emergency.
These things are only halfway through, and they have not yet reached the point of full outbreak.
He didn't expect that Li Si, the prime minister of the Qin State, really had his hands and eyes, his methods were already very secretive, and most of the people he used were inconspicuous and determined, but he didn't expect to be caught by Li Si.
He didn't expect Hu Hai to do it to himself at this time, nor did he expect that Li Si and them would already be connected at this time.
This matter is indeed a headache to deal with.
Although Fusu collected the records of hundreds of officials, he didn't plan to take them out at all, he just wanted to screen the people available to him, make good contacts, and lay the foundation for the future emperor's road.
But he didn't expect that this matter was caught by others and became a favorable means of attacking himself.
"I'm afraid I'm going to give up on this matter."
Fusu said secretly in his heart and sighed softly.
For tomorrow's court meeting, Fusu is actually not afraid, he has saved the records of the hundred officials, and they are all stored in the Siquan Palace, and he has never used the records of the hundred officials to do anything.
It's just that after this matter was exposed, his follow-up plans were interrupted, and everything had to start from scratch.
"Talking about words, but tomorrow I want to meet these insects head-on to see how capable they are."
Xianyang, Prime Minister's Mansion.
It was late at night, but the study of the Prime Minister's Mansion was brightly lit.
In the study room of Nuoda, there were more than a dozen people sitting, and everyone looked solemn and bowed their heads slightly.
Li Si was in the first seat, his eyes were slightly closed, and the old god was there.
In the study, no one spoke.
A moment later, the door opened, and a man flashed in, whispering a few words in Lis's ear.
Li Si's expression moved slightly, and he opened his eyes.
"Let's go down."
The man immediately saluted and turned away.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the matter has been ascertained, all the entry and exit records of you entering and leaving the Yayuan inside and outside the city, as well as what you have done in the Yayuan and how much money you have used, are all recorded by Fusu."
"These things are compiled into a book, and they are placed in the Siquan Temple."
After saying a sentence, the hall was stunned, and everyone looked sideways with a shocked face.
Nothing like this has ever happened before.
"Prime Minister, how is this good?"
"What the hell is Fusu going to do?"
"We're just going to the garden to drink and have fun, so what's the matter? How did he record this? ”
Despite what they say, these officials know that this matter is important.
Now that the national treasury is bottoming out, the emperor is building everywhere, whether it is the Great Wall in the north, the war in the south, the emperor's mausoleum, or the emperor's palace, all need a large amount of silver to support.
And at this time, if the emperor knew about their extravagance and spending a lot of money on the pleasures of the elegant garden, who of them would have good fruit to eat?
"He gathers your ways, and he will use them for himself, otherwise what else will he do by writing them down?"
Li Si smiled lightly and looked at everyone.
"As I said before, Gongzi Fusu seems to be loyal, but in fact he is a treacherous and unscrupulous person."
"Dare to ask you, if this matter is presented to His Majesty by him, what will happen to you, and what about his son-in-law Fusu?"
After saying this, everyone fell silent.
As a result, Fusu's status has risen sharply, and these officials have become a stepping stone for Fusu.
"Your Majesty's will, tomorrow the court, Fusu and the palace will confront you, and be strict about right and wrong."
"Guys, this is your chance to clear yourselves."
Li Si's face showed a little sinister smile.
