Chapter Fifty-Eight: Xianyang's Death
The hazy sky, the torrential rain in the distant mountains, the raging streams.
All of them give a layer of scorching breath to heaven and earth.
Li Chang paced back and forth in the backyard of the mansion, already restless.
He was like a trapped beast, waiting to tear open the last cage.
The henchmen hurried in the cold rain, bringing in a trace of cold breath.
Li Chang hurriedly greeted him, "How?" ”
"My lord, it's done."
Li Chang was overjoyed but still had doubts.
"It's been confirmed that Fusu is dead?"
"Falling off a cliff, life and death unknown."
"But under the cliff is Huaishui, the torrent is turbulent, and there is no way to live."
Li Chang stroked the organs that were about to jump out of his chest.
"That's fine, that's fine."
The tight string bow is temporarily loose.
If the news doesn't come for a day, he will not be at peace for a day.
In the nightmare, Fusu can be seen standing in the main hall of Xianyang Palace with three people.
The voice pointed directly at him colluding with mountain thieves, hoarding money and grain, and eradicating dissidents.
The family was escorted to the execution ground, the guillotine fell, and blood was splashed, which was the punishment of beheading.
And the real mastermind, Li Si, stood aside indifferently.
No matter how he cried and begged, he didn't move.
With only eyes like ice, words like swords, and said coldly:
"Lord Yushi, one person does things and one person is in charge!"
Every time I woke up, my back was already soaked.
"That Fusu's henchmen, a cadre of people, can there be a mouthful?"
The henchman is in trouble,
"I don't know yet, but without Fusu, can they still live to Xianyang!"
Li Chang's expression suddenly turned a little gloomy, and then he said fiercely:
"Closely track their whereabouts, and if there is any news, leave no one behind!"
"Yes!"
The henchman left, and Li Chang couldn't calm down for a long time.
The crackling rain crashed on the rubble and the stone steps of the doorway, disturbing him.
Li Chang frowned tightly and looked at the blurry sky mist from afar.
Obviously I should be relieved, but there is always a heavy piece of iron holding it down.
However, two days later, the news of Fusu's salary falling off the cliff reached Xianyang.
At today's court meeting, the first emperor's face was gloomy, like an angry lion.
Crackle and smash all the music on the shore on His Highness.
The ministers all held their breath and kicked their heads, not daring to say more.
"Presumptuous! Thieves dare! ”
"Fusu went to the remote county to work hard to raise food, and he received my order and obeyed my will."
"In the past, you were not able to speak well, and when you were impeached, one was more eloquent than the other."
"Why, all the ministers are dumb today!"
"Huh?"
Seeing that no one dared to speak.
Li Si had no choice but to bite the bullet and move forward.
"Back to Your Majesty, I heard that Gongzi Fusu exterminated a gang of thieves in Chencang."
"There are still wanderers."
"I never thought that the thief would have hatred in his heart, and he would rob and kill him halfway."
"Childe is invincible and falls off the cliff, life and death are not yet known."
"Please take care of your noble body, and the minister can send someone to search, and he will definitely find the son."
The First Emperor's face was like ice, his eagle eyes stared at him, and he didn't say much in anger.
Li Si started, and the envoy of Zhili also echoed:
"The minister also thinks that the prime minister is polite, and the top priority is to find the son, Your Majesty."
"Gongzi is a virtuous person, and he will definitely be safe, please rest assured that Your Majesty."
The First Emperor's chest rose and fell violently, and he only felt that his heart was stagnant.
Angry and anxious.
Fusu is his most satisfied son, and he has been too sharp recently.
His blade-like gaze stared around the faces of His Highness.
The mountain thieves' deliberate revenge is far-fetched.
It must have been those who saw him as a thorn in their side and took this opportunity to make a move.
Wang Jian and others also spoke:
"Murdering the prince of the clan, I'm afraid this matter is not that simple."
"Please ask Your Majesty to conduct a thorough investigation, find out the villains, and find out the truth."
The First Emperor swept through the earnest faces one by one.
I want to cut through the surface to see who is so bold.
He dared to attack his son.
"Where is the history of the prison?"
Li Chang was suddenly hit.
I was shocked, but I quickly calmed down.
Cheng Cheng stepped forward in fear, "The minister is here." ”
"What do you think about the local area?"
"Back to Your Majesty, Chen Cang's thieves have been rampant for many years, and the ministers have heard of it."
"The mountain thieves are all extremely vicious, and they were taken to their nests by Fusu Gongzi not long ago."
"I think that the revenge of the mountain thieves should be true."
As soon as Li Chang's voice fell, the first emperor had not yet spoken.
The pawn Gan Luo immediately sneered.
"Huh!"
"Mountain thieves, mountain thieves are reckless."
"You should also know that Fusu Gongzi is the son of His Majesty, and if there is any determination, he will do his best to investigate it."
"At that time, they will just have no nest, and their lives will definitely be difficult to protect."
"I think that ordinary mountain thieves will not be so bold."
Gan Luo's words made Li Chang's heart extremely empty.
He immediately retorted:
"Lord Dianke has been in the court for a long time, so naturally I don't know how fierce these mountain thieves are."
"The soldiers in the county have encircled and suppressed it many times, but they have not succeeded."
"You can see that they are extremely cunning."
"Even if it's such a powerful mountain thief, why does Xianyang never know about it?"
Gan Luo's words turned and pointed directly at Li Chang's negligence.
"If it weren't for Lord Supervisor Shi knowing about it and not reporting it, why would Chen Cang leave such a hidden danger."
"So much so that today he will extend his poisonous hand to Childe."
"Could it be that the adults deliberately didn't report it?"
"Your Excellency, you will have to spew blood."
Li Chang was ashamed and angry.
"It's just a mountain thief, why bother Your Majesty to hear it."
"But it's just a mountain thief who killed the son of Fusu."
"You ......"
In terms of eloquence, few of the Manchu courtiers were Ganluo's opponents.
Li Chang was choked up and speechless for a while.
His face was red, his forehead was beating with green tendons, and his heart was like a drum.
"Presumptuous!" From the high hall came the angry rebuke of the World Bank.
The two immediately knelt down and pleaded guilty, not daring to say anything more.
"My son's life and death are still unknown, but you are arguing in the court."
"What do you think of the court! There's still me in my eyes! ”
"Your Majesty is happy and angry, and the ministers are out of order."
The First Emperor was angry, but he was more worried about Fusu.
"Zongzheng, Tingwei."
"You two quickly go to Chen Cang to find out the truth."
"In addition, Chen Cang and the heads of nearby counties are strictly ordered to send additional personnel to find Fusu with all their might."
"Yes."
Li Chang also took the initiative to ask.
"Your Majesty, the minister is the supervisor of the imperial history, and the prince has such a thing in Chen Cang, and Chen is responsible for negligence."
"I would like to assist the two of you in investigating this matter thoroughly, and ask Your Majesty for your permission."
"That's right."
"The wandering mountain thieves must all be arrested and tortured!"
"Is it the revenge of the mountain bandits, or is it deliberate by the gangsters."
"I'm going to get a result."
When the court dispersed, the First Emperor leaned on the back seat tiredly.
The cold light in his eyes was covered with sorrow.
Born as a father, he also hopes that Fusu can survive.
Under the high cliffs, there are big waves, and the chances are slim.
Ying Zheng's heart was sour and unbearable, so he had to close his eyes and calm down.
The first emperor, who dominated most of his life, was in front of the loss of his son.
After all, it lost momentum.
The son who talks eloquently and looks like a green pine.
Seriously, can't you come back?
On the stone steps outside the hall, the ministers talked about it.
For what happened to Fusu Gongzi.
There are those who sigh, there are those who gloat, and there are those who kick and are restless.
