The court meeting dispersed, and the ministers walked out of the hall one after another.

As soon as the first emperor left, the ministers did not shy away from it, and they exchanged heads and ears in twos and threes, all of them were talking about the Fusu this time.

One wave vigorously praised Fusu for offering this 10 million gold and silver, and the other wave had many speculations about His Majesty's order to Fusu to raise grain and grass.

On the stone steps outside the hall, it was like a busy city for a while, and the noise was not long.

"Childe is really a talent in charge of Zhong, I admire and admire."

"Where, where, my lord praises it."

Fusu perfunctorily passed a few ministers who came up to talk, and left to prepare to return to Ganquan Palace.

Before stepping down the last staircase outside the palace, he heard a voice behind him.

"Childe stays."

Fusu was puzzled, and turned around to see the internal officials who were waiting for Yingzheng coming quickly.

Walking in front of Fusu, he said respectfully: "Your Majesty, please Fusu Gongzi move to the apse." ”

Fusu was slightly stunned, didn't ask much, and followed the internal official happily.

This scene was fully watched by Zhao Gao who was diagonally behind, his eyes were dark and his cheeks were tight.

If you look closely, you can see that the hand that he seems to have placed respectfully in front of his abdomen is stiff, and his joints are blue.

Zhao Gao narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his head and glanced at the little eunuch behind him.

The little eunuch immediately understood and walked away quickly in the direction of the palace gate.

When Fusu walked to the apse, the internal officials automatically retreated, obviously Yingzheng had something to say to him alone.

Fusu was slightly surprised in his heart, but he was also frank and indifferent, to this day, Yingzheng will definitely not attack him.

When he walked into the hall, he saw the candle flame flickering, and the proud figure of the first emperor was reflected on the curtain with red dark lines on a black background.

Ying Zheng stood behind the table with his hands behind his back, staring at the map of the Great Qin Territory.

Fusu leaned over the curtain slightly and shouted, "Father." ”

The voice of the First Emperor Shen Zhong came through the thin barrier, "You are here. ”

There are no waves, and I can't hear anything.

The candle flickered a few times, casting light and shadow intertwined on the drapery, just like the emperor's indistinguishable heart.

Ying Zheng turned to look at the slender figure of his eldest son.

In a short period of time, Fusu has grown to the point where even his father is amazed.

On the one hand, he was pleased that Fusu was of great use, but his tired face was reflected in the bronze mirror, and he couldn't help but have a few different thoughts.

The heir naturally has to be decided, but it must not be the time when he still has the strength to spare.

Ying Zheng will never allow that when he is still the lord of the world, someone threatens his position.

Even if it's his own flesh and blood.

Seeing that the figure hadn't moved for a long time, Fusu couldn't help but feel a little nervous.

When his bent back was a little stiff, Yingzheng finally spoke.

"Su'er, come in."

Fu Su walked in and sat on the side with Yingzheng's motion.

Ying Zheng slowly spoke.

"Fusu, I called you here, do you know why?"

Fusu bowed his head humbly, "The sons are ignorant, I think it is an errand assigned by the father, and I have to work hard to mention it for the sons." ”

"Huh."

Ying Zheng suddenly laughed, staring at Fusu and said:

"Su'er is the wisest of my sons, how can he be foolish."

Fusu keenly heard the meaning of jealousy, and expected that he was showing his edge today, although he won the affirmation of Yingzheng, but it inevitably made the emperor feel a sense of crisis.

Under his nose, a large amount of money was gathered silently.

Not only did the courtiers not believe it, but the emperor was even more suspicious.

The heavenly family is like this, no matter how deep the flesh and blood affection is, it can't resist suspicion and speculation.

Fusu's mind turned, and he was in a state of panic, and his head almost rested on the table.

"Fusu is all from the teachings of his father, and it is also to serve Daqin."

Seeing that he was so humble, the consideration in Ying Zheng's eyes did not disappear, and he reassured:

"Su'er doesn't have to be like this, you have solved the urgency of Great Qin, and it is also my pride."

"But I'm also curious about the money, how did you multiply it a hundredfold in a few years?"

Looking at the elegance in Yingzheng's eyes, Fusu knew that he also had doubts about this.

If he could not explain the source of the money, he would also leave the seeds of doubt in the heart of this unpredictable emperor.

At this time, he is a hero, and if he revolts in the future, it will be a disaster for himself.

He stabilized his mind and replied humbly: "Erchen is to follow the old way of managing Zhongzhong's business. ”

"Oh?" Ying Zheng showed great interest in this rhetoric.

Fusu slowly explained:

"Guan Zhong once put 700 women and levy her money for night meetings to be used for national purposes."

"The female Lu is indecent, so the sons and daughters are changed to Yayuan, and they also take advantage of the elegance of the ministers, the powerful and the vassals, and hire people to deliberately promote the Yayuan, and only those with noble status can enter."

"In order to show their dignity, people who go like this often spend a lot of money and linger like dirt."

"In this way, there will be a heart of comparison, and the benefits of Yayuan will rise."

"Don't hide it from my father, there are several elegant gardens outside the city, and there are a number of shops in the city, all of which are seeking profit and benefiting."

"And this benefit is on these powerful people."

Ying Zheng's joy was overflowing after listening to it, and the words were interesting.

He also said: "I know that Guan Zhong is nothing more than two words, "benefit" and "harm".

"Since Su Er can touch the interests of the courtiers and magnates so thoroughly, it can be seen that the control of people's minds has been perfected."

"Even I'm in your calculations."

As soon as these words came out, Fusu only felt that the cold sweat on his back flowed out of the ground.

This is too frightening to talk to the emperor, and a mistake or omission may plant a curse in the emperor's heart.

Fusu got up and knelt on the ground in panic, kowtowed, and said:

"Erchen is just following Guan Zhong's method of helping Zhou Tianzi with Jing Thatch, not his own creation."

"The thoughts of the father and the emperor are the divine consciousness of the world, and the sons and daughters dare not overmeasure and cannot speculate."

Ying Zheng's bent fingers lightly buckled twice on the table, and said in a deep voice:

"Get up, Su'er's character, I understand it, don't be so honest."

Fusu saw that Yingzheng's face was indeed normal, and his mood calmed down a little.

It is impossible for the First Emperor to believe it completely, but as long as he can fill the loopholes on the bright side.

When Yingzheng's treasury still needs money, he will definitely not be too careful.

The First Emperor confronted him and said:

"I want to ask you if you have any thoughts on raising grain and grass this time?"

Fusu raised his head and faced Yingzheng and replied: "Although my Great Qin has a vast land, there is a difference between east and west, and there is a difference between north and south. ”

"Erchen thinks that the matter of grain and grass does not need to go to great lengths to collect the whole country, but only needs to gather in the rich land of the granary."

"Hanzhong, Guanzhong, and Bashu are the three major granaries of my Great Qin, and my sons want to go here first."

Ying Zheng nodded approvingly and said solemnly:

"Raising grain and grass seems simple, but there are many doorways."

"There are rich places that can't afford to open positions, and barren places are full of homes, which must be closely related to local officials, and Su'er will have to carefully investigate for me at that time."

Only then did Fusu understand the other meaning of Yingzheng's order.
