Chapter 31 Departure to Longxi County
"That's it, you step aside, I have my own decision on this matter."
Fusu was slightly stunned, but he didn't expect Yingzheng to not respond immediately.
But it's not good to say anything more, and it seems suspicious to say more.
I had to retreat at the order.
As soon as he walked out of the apse, he asked the little eunuch who had been following him to report to Zhao Ji.
That night, Zhao Ji prepared snacks and coaxed Yingzheng to her palace.
During the banquet, Zhao Ji did not take the initiative to talk about Fusu, and only took care of the first emperor's drink and food.
Serve the emperor to a comfortable body and mind.
Recently, he has been quite appreciative of Fusu, and now he sees Zhao Ji a little more pity.
The gentle girl who held her smiled and said:
"Concubine Ai is virtuous, she teaches Fusu very well, and she is quite comfortable on my side."
"It's all taught well by Your Majesty, and the concubine is a woman, and she just wants to take care of Your Majesty and Su'er."
Seeing that the woman was gentle and submissive, Ying Zheng felt more and more intimate about her, and couldn't help but speak a little softer.
"Su'er is about to leave soon, why don't I order him to accompany you more in the next few days?"
"Your Majesty Xie is compassionate, Su'er is Your Majesty's eldest son, you should focus on business, and you must not delay because of your concubine."
"Besides, he is filial and has come to visit his concubine today."
Zhao Ji knew that Yingzheng's eyeliner was all over the palace and outside, even if he didn't say it, he knew that Fusu had come.
The first emperor was most taboo and implicated in the harem.
She discussed those things with Fusu, and she must not fall into the ears of others.
mentioned it frankly, but it made the emperor have no doubts.
Ying Zheng really didn't ask much.
only briefly mentioned that Fusu, as a son of man, should come to fulfill filial piety.
Zhao Ji took the opportunity to say as if unintentionally:
"Su Er also mentioned to the concubine today that I want to ask Your Majesty to temporarily seal the Siquan Palace."
"Oh?"
Ying Zheng's face changed slightly, thinking of whether Fusu would also inform Zhao Ji about the court.
Suddenly, the hand that had been holding Zhao Ji also let go.
Zhao Ji turned a blind eye and smiled helplessly:
"Speaking of which, this kid is too, saying that he has been dreaming of villains recently, and he is afraid that someone will use witchcraft in his temple to assassinate him."
"The concubine said that there was His Majesty's heavenly power in the palace, and he would not be threatened, so he gave up."
She hugged the First Emperor with a light smile, and said coquettishly: "Your Majesty, you said that Su Er is so old, and he is still afraid of villains." β
But the First Emperor did not speak.
He had been seeking immortality, and he was skeptical of these things.
Fusu is far away in the border county, and if there is really an evil art, it may not be effective.
Ke Siquan Hall is not far from the apse where Ying Zheng lives, if someone takes the opportunity to assassinate him, and then blame Fusu.
It's not impossible.
Fusu used villains to refer to those people behind him, and Wu Gu referred to the things inside, and did not tell the truth to Zhao Ji.
Ying Zheng remembered that Fusu asked him to seal the palace today, and he was afraid that there was also this reason.
The next day, Zhao Ji asked someone to tell him,
"Your Majesty has promised to seal the Siquan Palace, and no one will be allowed to enter until Fusu returns."
Fusu put his mind at ease and began to prepare for the food raising with all his heart.
In the past few months, there have been countless dangers on the road, and there are even Hu Hai and Zhao Gao's gang who will secretly release arrows.
The attendants, officers, and armor must be carefully selected.
Ying Zheng didn't let him go to the three granaries.
The rest of the remote homeland is mostly barren land, and the grain production will not be too much.
It is also a rich place in Huiji and Nanjun.
No matter how rich it is, it has to be done by local officials who are willing to open warehouses and pay grain.
In fact, the lack of food is secondary, after all, there is more than enough in the granary of his system.
The difficulty lies in how to make the food that has been replenished appear normal.
The sources are well documented, and this matter needs to be carefully considered.
A suburban garden.
Zhao Gao's hat and robe hurriedly came.
Hu Hai personally greeted him at the door.
"Teacher, how?"
The two of them hurried inside, and the door was quickly closed by the attendants.
Zhao Gao lifted his hat, and his face was extremely gloomy.
Seeing that Fusu turned over and was entrusted with a heavy responsibility, he couldn't sit still for the past two days.
When serving the first emperor during the day, he can't reveal half a minute, and in the dead of night, he can spread fire in his bedroom.
Today, the first emperor retired and went to Zhao Ji's dormitory, so he had to come in time.
Entering the house, Zhao Gao stared at Hu Hai and said:
"There is already news that Fusu will go to Longxi County first."
Hu Hai's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he clapped his hands excitedly and said:
"Okay, Zhang Chang, the county guard of Longxi, is my mother's cousin, and he has surrendered to me several times in recent years."
He snorted dissatisfiedly: "Fusu has arrived in Longxi, why can't we let him get his wish." β
Zhao Gao did not let go of this.
Fusu raised grain, the government and the opposition all looked at it, and the first emperor was even more.
If he planted a heel in Longxi, he would have a relationship with Hu Hai on the surface, and he didn't have to think about it to know whose instruction it was.
He said coldly: "Childe is too naΓ―ve, to this day, Childe will not still think that Fusu is a mediocre person who can be manipulated casually!" β
Hu Hai saw that his face was not good, so he immediately restrained his joy and lowered his head.
In the past few years, he has been able to form a rivalry with Fusu, relying on either Li Si or Zhao Gao.
No matter how stupid he is, he understands that without these two people, he Hu Hai is powerless to fight against Fusu at all.
"Then, what does the teacher think, what should we do?"
Zhao Gao walked straight to the back of the table and sat down, and Hu Hai followed behind him.
This seems to be an extremely unreasonable behavior to ordinary people, but he does it extremely naturally.
He is an internal official, even if he is in a high position, his status is still very different from that of the son of the first emperor.
It's a pity that this Hu Hai has long been held in the palm of his hand, and he is a puppet with a thread.
If it weren't for that, he wouldn't have fully supported Hu Hai.
With Zhao Gao's ability, the first emperor abdicated and other princes ascended the throne.
He can still be the best official in the house, the celebrity next to the emperor.
But it would be different if he was replaced by Hu Hai, he could hold great power and become a veritable controller of Great Qin.
Hu Hai consciously went to sit down on the other side, looking at him with blank eyes.
Zhao Gao Zhengse said: "Fusu went to Longxi, passing through Lintao County. β
"Longxi can't do it, but Lintao can."
"Pro...... Lintao, there is a small county order, what can you do? β
Hu Hai shouted irritably.
No matter how much he hates Fusu, he is also the eldest son of the first emperor.
Li Si is the prime minister of a country, and he can't help it, not to mention a small county order in the border county.
The sesame seeds are bigger than that.
"The controller of a county is the county guard, and the county is the county order, even if he is the emperor's noble."
"When you get to the local area, you can't know the whole picture."
Zhao Gao sneered, "He wants grain and grass, but we don't give him grain and grass." β
"Your Majesty gave him three months, why don't you delay him for three months."
Hu Hai saw that Zhao Gao already had a plan in his heart, and his nerves relaxed in an instant.
Grimly laughed:
"As soon as the March period arrives, Fusu has not been able to complete his father's order, and I will see how he will show off his power when the time comes."
"Besides, teacher, the county here is poor and the mountains and rivers are bad, and there are mountain bandits on the road, rolling down a mountain rock or something, so you don't have to do anything about them."
Zhao Gao saluted Hu Hai with a false salute, and said with a smile:
"Childe is right."
