Chapter 19: The Speech Surprises
Li Si looked at Fusu at this moment, his eyes were burning, and he didn't retreat.
He has already made a move against Fusu, and Fusu has already fought back.
In today's court, if Fusu is not completely overthrown, it will be difficult to deal with Fusu in the future.
"I'll explain."
Fusu smiled lightly, then turned his head to look at the ministers behind him, and then saluted respectfully to Yingzheng and said.
"Father, these things that Fusu has done are for my Great Qin Sheji and for my eternal inheritance!"
"In Fusu's heart, there is no selfishness!"
When Ying Zheng heard this, his face was pale, and he didn't say a word, but Li Si on the side stepped forward and spoke.
"Gongzi keeps saying that it is for my Great Qin and for the foundation of eternity."
"But the prince privately repairs the underground palace, collects money, monitors hundreds of officials, and privately farms property."
"None of these piles and pieces do not show Childe's heart for Daqin, but it is all Childe's selfishness."
"What's Childe's explanation for this?"
I have to say that facing Li Si head-on, Fusu is still a little apprehensive in his heart.
This Li Sinai is a fox cultivated for thousands of years, and he is comfortable in the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms, helping Yingzheng to destroy them one by one, and his mental city is already very invincible.
This man's words are pits, and every word is set, and once he does not fall into his verbal trap, it will be difficult to get out.
Fusu's eyes narrowed slightly when he heard this, and he was about to speak, but he heard a voice suddenly from among the ministers behind him.
"Minister, second!"
"Childe's actions are not the actions of human ministers!"
"The minister seconded the proposal!"
"The minister also seconded it!"
"Your Majesty, the prince is privately cultivating the underground palace, afraid that there is a suspicion of secretly tuning the armor, collecting money, controlling hundreds of officials, afraid of subverting the court, and hoping that Your Majesty will be discerning and arbitrary, and must not shake the foundation of my Great Qin!"
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that the son's behavior has already exceeded the power of the son, and he hopes that His Majesty will severely punish it!"
"Your Majesty!"
Present, many ministers stepped forward one after another, knelt on the ground, and said that Fusu was not, and kowtowed heavily.
Most of these people are the Qingliu people of the Great Qin Imperial Court, not the henchmen of Li Si, and they don't have much control over Fusu.
When they said this, they really considered Daqin, and felt that Fusu's practice had already transgressed, which was a disobedient move and suspected of rebellion.
It's just that because of the identity of Fusu's son, he didn't say anything about this rebellion.
During this period, many generals who had not said a word before also stepped forward and knelt on the ground, demanding severe punishment for Fusu.
The Manchu Dynasty was civil and military, and no one spoke for Fusu.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng frowned slightly, his face was pale, but he still didn't say a word.
On the side, Li Si was there, and he was confident again.
He had already forced Fusu to the edge of the cliff, but Yingzheng did not say anything to protect him, which means that his previous guesses were correct.
Yingzheng just wanted to roast Fusu on the fire, let him face the Manchu civil and military, and explain what happened to him.
If the crime of rebellion is convicted, even if Fusu has three heads and six arms, he will not be able to escape the laws of Great Qin.
In the face of the questioning and harsh criticism of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, Fusu's face was calm, he turned his head slightly, and looked at the people behind him, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he was not timid.
"Guys, can you listen to me?"
After Fusu's words were finished, he did not get any courtiers' support, and everyone just knelt on the ground, waiting for Yingzheng to speak.
Seeing this, Fusu smiled slightly, opened his mouth to himself, and said in a deep voice.
"I built the underground palace to hoard money."
"The money for the construction of the underground palace was given by my father, and it took half a year to complete it since four years ago."
"Hoarding money?"
Li Si chuckled and said.
"Childe, are you admitting that you have the intention of hoarding money?"
"When did I deny it?"
Fusu turned his head directly, looked at Li Si, and said in a deep voice.
"I built the underground palace with the craftsmen of the court, and I used the reward I received from Fusu."
"Is there any article in the Great Qin Law that states that it is against the law for the prince to build an underground palace under the mansion?"
This sentence stopped Li Si.
In the laws of Great Qin, there is indeed no article that explicitly stipulates that the prince cannot build an underground palace in the mansion.
It's just that this matter is taboo, and if the son builds a dungeon at home, it will be speculated, and he is suspected of rebellion.
Li Si didn't speak, and Fusu continued.
"And in my dungeon, you can see a soldier and a piece of armor?"
"Prime Minister, I said that I was hoarding money in the underground palace, but was it wrong?"
"This ......"
Li Si was speechless for a while, and he couldn't find a word of confrontation.
"In the past four years, I have collected acres of land inside and outside Xianyang, purchased houses, and rebuilt elegant gardens in order to earn money."
"Prime Minister, ministers, do you want to know, what am I doing this for?"
At this moment, Fusu's words had attracted the attention of all the ministers, and they were also curious in their hearts.
Since Fusu built the underground palace not to garrison soldiers, but to hide money, what was he so deliberately trying to earn so much silver?
"I, the ancestor of the seventh generation of Qin Fen, Yu Lie, my father is wise and martial, and finally pacified the sea, destroyed the six countries in a row, and made immortal feats through the ages, glorifying Kyushu!"
"However, after the world was pacified, the ministers were slack, the soldiers were arrogant, in just a few years, the Great Qin Dynasty was full of miasma, the ministers did not think about how to govern the country, the soldiers did not think about how to protect the family and defend the country, everyone only thought about how to enjoy themselves, how to be comfortable!"
"If this continues, where is the prestige of my Great Qin, and where is my Great Qin Society?"
"I'm just a son of Daqin, I only use hundreds of acres of land inside and outside Xianyang, more than a dozen mansions, just three years, but I have collected countless silver coins, and the underground palace is piled up into mountains!"
"However, my father wanted to build a foundation for all generations, build the Great Wall in the north, and break through Baiyue in the south, but I was trapped by the military salary."
"Such a ridiculous thing, I want to ask all the ministers, why?"
Fusu's words were deafening, and many ministers heard it, as if they were a blow to the head, and their hearts trembled.
Li Si was behind him, but cold sweat was already on his forehead.
Ying Zheng sat on the dragon chair, but his face was no longer iron-blue, but his eyes narrowed slightly, and he became interested.
"Ladies and gentlemen, who can answer?"
Fusu stepped forward and asked loudly.
All the courtiers were stunned on the spot, but none of them could speak.
"The Manchu Dynasty is civil and military, and eats the king's lu, but he doesn't think about the monarch or the country!"
"I'm a towering Great Qin, so I raised this group of moths, lying on the corpses of the six countries that still have residual warmth, and enjoy their blessings!"
"If this continues, the country will not be a country!"
"In the long run, do you want me to follow in the footsteps of the Six Kingdoms?"
After saying this, everyone was shocked, and even Yingzheng on the dragon chair frowned slightly.
What is the ...... Isn't it cursing Great Qin?
