Chapter 17 Zhao Gao's murderous intent is gradually rising, what a hammer
This student of his own is so greedy for pleasure, and Zhao Gao is also very helpless. However, for the sake of his own future, Zhao Gao had to try his best to supervise himself, a student, in order to plan to become the next heir to the throne of Great Qin.
Zhao Gao knew very well in his heart that if Fusu ascended the throne, then he would be completely finished.
He is the teacher of his son Hu Hai, and the reason why the first emperor has not been crowned a prince is actually that he is swaying and hesitating between Fusu and Hu Hai.
Although the First Emperor had a total of more than 20 sons, everyone inside and outside the court knew that the First Emperor only loved Hu Hai's son, and not only often took him on trips to prove it, but also made Zhao Gao Hu Hai's teacher, and even planned to make him the crown prince.
Of course, everyone also knows that the first choice of the prince in the emperor's heart is naturally Fusu. However, Fusu was deeply influenced by the Confucianism of his teacher Chun Yuyue, and his character was very weak, so the emperor was not at ease to give him Daqin like this.
It is precisely because of this that it can be said that the two groups of people are competing brightly.
The Meng family and the Feng family are all preventing Hu Hai from becoming the prince, and Zhao Gao, as Hu Hai's teacher, is naturally trying his best to prevent Fusu from becoming the prince. In this way, if the crown prince is taken away by Fusu in the end, then he Zhao Gao will be a complete defeat, and he will not even be able to save his life if he loses.
At that time, even if Fusu doesn't kill him, the Meng family will kill him.
You must know that he Zhao Gao and the Meng family have a deep hatred.
At the beginning, he Zhao Gao committed a capital crime and fell into the hands of Meng Yi. Meng Yi didn't give any face, and even Hu Hai's plea was useless, and he was directly and truthfully sentenced to death.
In the end, fortunately, the emperor felt that he usually did things quite well, so he exempted him from the death penalty, so that he Zhao Gao was able to live to this day.
This is a mortal enemy of life and death, after he was pardoned, the Meng brothers also knew that they had a mortal enmity with him Zhao Gao, so Zhao Gao knew very well in his heart that if Hu Hai won in this battle for the crown prince, he would be able to avenge his blood hatred. On the contrary, if Fusu wins, then the Meng family, as Fusu's cronies, will be killed by the Meng family!
The battle for the crown prince is related to his own life, in the past, the two sides were evenly matched, no matter how big or bottom, but now a Li Yang who came out of nowhere directly made the current situation very unfavorable, do you say that Zhao Gaoneng is not in a hurry to get angry?
Especially thinking of today, Fusu worships Li Yang as his master, and he is even more bad.
Zhao Gao was extremely worried in his heart, but at this moment, the son Hu Hai looked disappreciative, and said with a slight complaint: "Today's morning dynasty, isn't it just to kill Li Yang and Meng and Feng's people who are engaged in the new law, such a happy thing, this son invited the singer to celebrate, does the teacher think there is anything wrong with this?"
Zhao Gao sighed, and when he thought of this, he couldn't wait to beat his chest in his heart, gritted his teeth and said: "Gongzi doesn't know anything, this morning, Li Yang is not dead!"
"What? He's not dead!"
At this moment, Hu Hai heard this, his heart trembled, he was suddenly startled, and said with a surprised face: "This ....... How is this possible? He ........ them get those "Public Laws", they are obviously going against their father, and they don't let their father levy labor, how can their father not kill them!"
Zhao Gao shook his head with a wry smile, and said helplessly: "Gongzi doesn't know, this Li Yang is far more cunning than I thought, he had planned a way out in advance, and actually gave the emperor a countermeasure that would not affect Ah Fang and other projects." Today, not only did he escape, but all the Attorney Ministers who participated in the reform are safe and sound. ”
"How so!"
When Hu Hai heard this, he couldn't believe such a result, and he was immediately stupid on the spot, his face was ugly, as if he had eaten.
Zhao Gao is not much better, and the result of today's morning dynasty is unacceptable to him
He couldn't help but hate: "That Li Yang is much more difficult to deal with than we imagined, and today Liu Yilang and Dr. Xu have been killed by the emperor because of their opposition to his new law."
Speaking of this, Zhao Gao sighed: "Fortunately, I had a premonition that something was not good, and I glanced at the other adults in time, otherwise, our people would probably have all been explained today."
Hu Hai was shocked, looked up and saw Zhao Gao's helpless appearance, and couldn't help asking, "Teacher, what should I do?" Today, the father did not kill Li Yang, which means that his position as the prime minister is firmly established, and it will be even more difficult to deal with him in the future. Or...... Let's go and get him over, what does the teacher think?"
Zhao Gao shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Before today, this method may still be possible, but from today onwards, this method is no longer possible." Because......... Today in the court, His Majesty has asked Fusu to worship him as a teacher. ”
"Ahh Hu Hai was directly stupid.
My heart suddenly pulled out the cold, staggered, and almost didn't stand firm.
This news, for him, was like a bolt from the blue.
Hu Hai knew very well in his heart, what does this mean?
Now, Li Yang has become Fusu's teacher, which is naturally a big help to Fusu, plus he is the prime minister of the central government, leading the implementation of the new law, his power is high, he is in charge of the law and politics of Daqin, and more importantly, he is deeply trusted by the emperor. With such a person to help Su, plus the Feng and Meng families, this is equivalent to the fact that the three major heads of law, politics, and the military have all become Fusu's people, so he Hu Hai can still compete with Fusu for the crown prince, this is completely out of play!
"Teacher, we lost, we have already lost......"
Hu Hai's heart was completely ashen, and he sat down on the ground with his buttocks, his eyes suddenly became wooden and hollow, as if he had lost his soul all at once.
Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, and then his eyes narrowed slightly, his eyes were full of unwillingness and ruthlessness, as if he was saying to himself: "No, we haven't lost yet, we can't admit defeat yet."
Thinking of this, he turned his head to Hu Hai and solemnly admonished: "Childe, this game of chess is still playing, and it has not yet reached the point of admitting defeat, how can you lose confidence, you must know that among the more than 20 princes of the emperor, only you are the most loved by the emperor, and the prince must not give up."
Hu Hai smiled bitterly: "Teacher, how can you still play this chess?" No matter how you play, isn't it a loss in the end?"
Zhao Gao shook his head, his eyes became like poisonous snakes, revealing a trace of cruelty and viciousness, and said silently: "The reason why we are at a disadvantage in this game of chess today is that there is more Li Yang's chess, without his chess piece, why is this change now, the throne of the Great Qin Emperor has long been your son."
When Hu Hai heard this, he was also furious, and he couldn't wait to dismantle Li Yang into eight pieces, gritted his teeth and said: "This Li Yang is really hateful!" Not only is it a big thing that Ben Gongzi has been planning for a long time, but now it has become a big help to Fusu, this person is simply Ben Gongzi's broom star!"
Hu Hai had to hate Li Yang, because Li Yang's appearance directly disrupted a layout they had been planning for a long time.
Since the beginning of the year, the emperor has suffered from a cold and has not been cured for a long time, and he and Zhao Gao have successively laid out three major events.
One is the meteorite event.
They buried a stone in Dongjun, and the words "The first emperor died and the land was divided" was engraved on the stone.
The second is the Yubi incident.
In the early years, when the emperor went out on a parade, the piece of jade that fell into the river was sent back to Yingzheng's hands, and he also gave such a spell as "Ancestral Dragon died this year".
The third is to let Tai Shiling make up the astronomical strange phenomenon of "Yingfu guarding the heart".
In this way, the three curses are bound to frighten the emperor, so as to find a solution
At this time, Tai Shi Ling could use the excuse of avoiding disaster and suggested that the emperor tour east.
Originally, everything went very smoothly according to their plan, and the emperor also agreed to the eastern tour to avoid disaster.
According to the plan, Zhao Gao and Hu Hai only needed to directly cut off the seriously ill Yingzheng on the road, and then in the name of the emperor, Xia Zhao would be assigned to Fusu and Meng Tian at the border of the Great Wall to die. Then Lizhao, the legend is located in his Huhai.
In this way, great things will be done!
However, such a perfect layout and such a perfect plan turned out to be disrupted in an instant because of Li Yang's appearance, and finally fell short.
Li Yang actually offered medicine to cure the emperor's illness, as soon as the emperor was well, this eastern tour was naturally put on hold for the time being, and more importantly, the emperor was cured, if he was still killed, not to mention whether it could be done, even if it could be done, it would arouse the suspicion of others.
As a result, in this way, the plan that was about to succeed was directly because of him Li Yang, and it came to naught.
What's even more infuriating is that not only did he sabotage this plan, but Fusu was also brought back by the emperor because of the offering of medicine.
All of this, do you think Hu Hai can not hate him to the core?
It's good now, he actually became Fusu's teacher, and Hu Hai was so angry that he wanted to go crazy!
This is not just a broom star, this is simply a roadblock for him Hu Hai to the throne, Hu Hai can't wait to eat his flesh, drink his blood, and crush his bones and ashes!
Thinking of this, although Hu Hai lost confidence in his heart, he was also very unwilling and asked, "Teacher, is there still a way to play this game of chess?"
Zhao Gao squinted his eyes slightly and said, "Since the disadvantage of this game of chess is caused by his piece, then we will remove this piece!"
Speaking of which, he made a neck-cutting motion.
When Hu Hai heard this, a killing intent appeared instantly, and he clapped his palms: "Okay, if this person doesn't kill him, it's really difficult to solve the great hatred in my son's heart!"
In other words, Li Yang, who was dispersed from the dynasty, went directly to the Taigong.
Now as a Taifu, he is in charge of teaching the eldest son the study of governing the country, so he naturally has to assign him some learning tasks.
At this time, he was in a good mood, and he was the youngest master in history, and he could even be said to be unprecedented, unprecedented.
He was proud, and he didn't know that because he was worshiped as a master, he had now become a thorn in the side of some people, a thorn in the flesh, and he wanted to kill him quickly.
Although the Qin Dynasty set up a prince in detail, it did not officially canonize the crown prince, which is rare in previous dynasties.
However, Li Yang also knew that as long as Fusu did not make any big mistakes, there should be no change in the position of the prince.
Not long after, Li Yang came to the Tai Palace.
This palace is too big, but it is extremely simple, and it is not as rich and luxurious as the backyard of Li Yang's Prime Minister's Mansion.
Entry, self-owned guard rate into the house to report.
Soon, Gongzi Fusu led a group of princess officials to hurry to the front entrance, came to greet the teacher, and bowed down together: "Taifu!"
Li Yang enjoyed this honor in his heart, but on the other hand, he also pretended to be favored, and hurriedly arched his hand: "Your Highness will be polite with the ministers in the future!"
Fusu hurriedly said: "Although Taifu is the same age as Fusu, he is now Fusu's teacher, how can this teacher be omitted."
Li Yang smiled, and he couldn't help him, anyway, there is such an eldest son who calls his teacher every day, and this feeling is quite fulfilling.
"Taifu, this person is Wang Zhan in my mansion."
At this time, Fusu pointed to a courtier in his forties behind him and introduced him to Li Yang.
Zhan Shi, Prince Qing, in charge of the prince's family, the commander of the prince's courtiers, rank 2,000 stones, Zhan Shicheng is the closest person to Fusu.
Wang Zhanshi bowed respectfully: "Your subordinates have seen Taifu!"
The Taigong official was not under the control of the prime minister, but was headed by the Taifu, so at this time, this Wang Zhan Shi naturally called Li Yang's identity as the Taifu and expressed his respect.
He had already heard that this Li Zhongcheng was very powerful, not only with the ability to govern the world, but also with the trust of the emperor, which could be said to be a combination of favor and power, so Wang Zhan did not dare to be disrespectful.
Li Yang also said politely: "Wang Zhan doesn't have to be polite."
Fusu first invited Li Yang into the hall, and then said: "The student was originally planning to go to Zhongcheng Mansion to meet Taifu and ask for advice on governing the country, but I didn't expect Taifu to come by himself."
Li Yang smiled: "The minister is trusted by His Majesty and His Royal Highness, and he worships him as the Taifu, and His Highness's study of governing the country, the minister does not dare to make any mistakes, so he specially came to talk to His Highness."
Fusu was overjoyed, and hurriedly said: "Let the Taifu bother, I don't know what the Taifu has to teach today?"
Li Yang said: "I don't dare to show the training, the minister wants to ask first, His Royal Highness's ambition in life!"
Fusu replied: "The student's ambition is to make my Great Qin peaceful world, and the people live and work in peace and contentment, so that my Great Qin will be eternal forever, so that I can be worthy of my father and the emperor, and worthy of the people of the world." Just ......."
"Just what?" Li Yang asked.
Fusu sighed and said with some loss: "It's just...... My father said that I have a compassionate heart and lack of fortitude and courage, so I am always dissatisfied. “
Li Yang smiled: "Your Highness doesn't need to be worried, this is the heart of the country and the people, which is incomparably rare and valuable, but His Highness used the wrong method in the past, which will be misunderstood by His Majesty."
When Fusu heard this, he was suddenly overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Taifu didn't lie to me?" Do you really think there's anything wrong with my will?"
Li Yang nodded: "How could the minister deceive His Highness, as the eldest son of Great Qin, His Royal Highness has this heart of worrying about the country and the people, and it will be the blessing of Great Qin and the blessing of all the people in the future, how valuable this ambition is."
As soon as Li Yang's remarks came out, even Wang Zhan on the side was overjoyed
Fusu seemed a little excited, he had been denied by his father in the past, but today he was unexpectedly recognized and appreciated by Li Yang, which was a very unexpected thing for him, and it also made him extremely excited.
In fact, after today's early dynasty, Fusu also has a general understanding of Li Yang's concept of governing the country.
Whether it is the "Public Law" compiled by him or the sustainable development strategy of today's court, they are all for the sake of the people's livelihood, that is to say, this Li Zhongcheng, in fact, his strategy of governing the country can be regarded as benevolent government.
It's just that the benevolent policy of this Li Zhongcheng can be supported and approved by his father, but the benevolent policy strategy proposed by himself is always refuted by his father.
Isn't all this what Li Zhongyu said, the method is wrong?
Thinking of this, Fusu hurriedly bowed: "I also hope that Taifu will teach me the study of governing the country."
Li Yang smiled slightly: "There is no way to learn the study of governing the country."
"Huh?" Fusu was stunned, his face full of question marks.
At this time, he was really a little confused, and he couldn't understand Li Yang's words at all, so he asked curiously: "What does Taifu mean by this?"
Li Yang said: "The study of governing the country is very different from Confucianism, Confucianism is all in the poetry and classics, and you only need to work hard every day to read the readers, and this Confucian essence will naturally be learned." However, this study of statecraft is a technique and a method. What is the solution? The solution is a strategy that can solve the problem. Therefore, there is no way to learn the study of governing the country, there is only one way, and that is to do it!"
"Do?" Fusu was confused.
Li Yang nodded: "That's right, only by keeping doing it, trying to do everything possible to solve the current difficulties of Great Qin, this skill of governing the country will naturally be learned."
Li Yang had already thought very clearly before he came to the Taigong Palace.
This son, in terms of knowledge, I'm afraid Li Yang himself can't compare, after all, people have been studying with Confucian University scholar Chun Yuyue since he was a child, and he hasn't learned any ancient poetry collections! It's impossible to teach him to read yourself, right?
Moreover, in real terms, in addition to knowledge, this governance really depends on insight and methods.
In the past, he talked a lot about the concept of governing the country, but it was better to let Fusu try to do it slowly, start from small things, and let him personally participate in the governance of the country, so that he would naturally understand what it means to govern the country and how to govern the country well.
If you do more things, you will naturally be able to learn this ability to govern the country.
Only in this way will he understand that it is impossible to rely solely on the benevolence, righteousness, courtesy, wisdom, and faith in the poems and books taught to him by Chun Yuyue, and the only way is truly effective.
Only then can we solve the country's problems, and only by truly effective methods can we achieve the result of making the world peaceful and the people living and working in peace and contentment.
After listening to Li Yang's words, Fu Su pondered for a while, and then suddenly brightened up, and bowed: "Taifu's words are really concise and shocking, and they are enlightening. It turns out that the study of governing the country is not in words, but in deeds, and Fusu is really open today. “
Fusu really has a sense of seeing the sun and waking up.
The most important reason why his policy of light conscription was not approved by his father and the emperor, and why he was directly degraded to worthless by Li Yang above the court today, was that when he proposed this strategy of reducing the number of conscripts, he did not think deeply about the results of this strategy of light conscription.
I just think that light forced labor is benevolent government, and the result will naturally be beneficial to the livelihood of the people.
Now it seems that only understanding theory and rhetoric is useless, and it will even lead the country into misdirection.
Thinking of this, Fusu really admired Li Yang completely, and pointed out the essence of governing the country in one sentence, this kind of teacher is really awesome.
Li Yang didn't expect that a casual sentence he said would give others so many ideas.
Seeing that Fusu agreed with his teaching style, he nodded with satisfaction, and said, "What's the matter, the minister wants to ask His Highness, what does His Highness think is the problem of Daqin?"
Fusu knew that this was Li Yang testing him, and in order to try to perform well in front of Taifu for the first time, Fusu thought about it carefully.
Then he replied confidently:
"Originally, there were too many problems in my Great Qin, the laws were too strict, the service was too heavy, the taxes were too high, and the people couldn't live in peace. However, now that there is Taifu's reform, as well as today's sustainable development strategy, this law is solved, and the worries of heavy service are solved. Therefore, Fusu believes that the only problem in our Great Qin at the moment is that the tax is too high, and it is advisable to urgently reduce taxes and reduce taxes. ”
After speaking, Fusu looked at Li Yang with a happy face, thinking that Li Yang would definitely be satisfied with this answer, not only flattering his merits, but also pointing out Daqin's current problems.
However, the praise did not wait ....
After hearing this, Li Yang rolled his eyes, and then looked at him like a fool, and two words came out of his mouth: "You are really an idiot!"
Fusu: ........."
