At night, the cold wind was bitter, and the Qin army, which had just set up camp in the plain, had to brave the cold night wind and embark on the journey to the west again.

This time, Zhao Gao did not accompany the First Emperor's Luanyu, he chose a horse and followed the team, the First Emperor's illness affected the hearts of tens of thousands of people, at this time, Zhao Gao had to seriously think about the back road, how to completely control the situation.

Although he comforted Hu Hai that as long as he took Li Si, he would be carefree and control the situation, but this was just the words used to stabilize Hu Hai, whether it would be effective or not, Zhao Gao was not completely sure in his heart, but Zhao Gao knew very well that once the first emperor died of illness, it must be very difficult to control Fusu.

At this time, the sky was already slightly bright, and an officer rushed over and arched his hand in front of Zhao Gao: "Lord CRRC, the sand dunes have arrived in front, do you want to rest for half a day?" ”

"Can't stop, give orders, and the whole army is moving forward at great speed." The officer sang the promise and left, at this time, Zhao Gao's eyes unconsciously looked at Luan Yu, inside, the first emperor was still in a coma, how to deal with the aftermath, he was worried in his heart, just when Zhao Gao was thinking nonsense and wandering all over the world, I don't know when Li Si came to the front: "Lord Zhao, is Your Majesty better?" ”

Zhao Gao was interrupted by Li Si to ponder, and couldn't help but smile and said: "Prime Minister Li, hehe, Your Majesty is still in a coma, and the imperial doctors have already given // medicine." ”

After hearing this, Li Si couldn't help but sigh lightly, "Your Majesty is old, and you have to force the eastern tour, this time you are sick on the way, and the Qin State is worried." ”

After speaking, Li Si glanced at it and asked in a deep voice: "Lord Zhao, in the past few days, has Your Majesty had any will?" ”

Seeing that Li Si suddenly asked about this, Zhao Gao was slightly displeased, and scolded: "Prime Minister Li, what do you mean by this?" Could it be that I, Zhao Gao, have not concealed the holy decree? ”

Seeing that Zhao Gao was angry, Li Si hurriedly smiled and said, "Don't dare, don't dare, I just asked casually." ”

After speaking, Li Si bowed his head and said nothing, the first emperor's life, the most taboo is the word 'death', if he opens his mouth to ask about the will, he will definitely be angry, if he doesn't get it right, he will also be implicated, but if he doesn't ask, Li Si feels faintly uneasy in his heart, if it is delayed like this, once the first emperor dies, I am afraid that there will be chaos.

Li Si hesitated on the horse, but he didn't dare to say anything, at this time, Luan Yu suddenly stopped, Li Si and Zhao Gao looked at each other, and an attendant opened the door and walked out, and said hurriedly: "Lord Li, Lord Zhao, Your Majesty is awake and wants to see you." ”

Both of them glanced at each other, hurriedly dismounted, and walked towards Luan Yu.

In Luanyu, the First Emperor sat up with the support of an attendant, he was in much better spirits at this time than a few days ago, Zhao Gao faintly felt that this was the appearance of returning to the light, but he didn't dare to step forward to ask the First Emperor how he felt at this time, so he had to stand side by side with Li Si, quietly waiting for the First Emperor's orders.

I don't know what the First Emperor was thinking at this time, he unconsciously popped out two "good" words from his mouth, then he looked at Li Si and ordered: "Li Si, make a decree for me." ”

Li Si couldn't help but be overjoyed in his heart, the First Emperor seemed to have a premonition, he finally decided to draft a decree, so that the Qin State would not be divided because of the sudden collapse of the First Emperor, he immediately walked to the side of the imperial case, picked up the brush, picked up a bamboo slip, and waited for the first emperor's next will.

Zhao Gao was beating a drum in his heart at this time, he knew very well that the first emperor would not consider passing on the throne to Hu Hai at this time, after all, Hu Hai was young and did not have the courage of his eldest son Fusu, so he could stabilize the court, but in any case, Zhao Gao had to fight, but not at the moment.

After a short silence, the first emperor said in a deep voice: "I have come to the throne, reigned for thirty-six years, cold, summer, spring and summer, soldiers drank blood, unified China, ascended the throne and called the emperor, it has been twelve years, now, the old dragon clock, can not manage the government, although there is reluctance, but whining and lamenting, since the day of my death, I ordered the eldest son Fusu, succeeded the second emperor, led the Qin State, and created glory until thousands of generations......

The First Emperor seemed to be a little tired, he slowly lay down, and thought about it for a moment before he burst out two words slowly: "Qin this." ”

Li Sifen wrote the book, after writing, he gently dried it with his mouth, and then walked in front of the first emperor, opened the holy decree, and wrote the holy decree of the throne of Fusu on the bamboo slip, Li Si knelt respectfully, and said: "Your Majesty, please read." ”

The First Emperor's eyes were firmly fixed on the holy decree, and he never left, but in the blink of an eye, half a pillar of incense had passed, and the First Emperor was still watching intently, because Li Si was kneeling beside the First Emperor, always keeping his head down, he didn't feel that it was wrong, but Zhao Gao on the side felt something strange, he walked over, took the holy decree in Li Si's hand, and put it in his arms, and then tried it on the nose of the First Emperor, and couldn't help but exclaim: "Your Majesty...... Crashed! ”

Li Si's body trembled, he hurriedly got up, but Zhao Gao reached out and pressed Li Si, and said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty's death, don't make a noise for the time being, so as not to be turbulent in Xianyang and disturbed in all directions. ”

Li Si also knew the importance of this matter, nodded slightly, at this time, Zhao Gao pretended to be nervous and anxious, pointed outside and said: "At this time, the army still does not know about the death of His Majesty, please go out immediately to preside over the overall situation, stabilize the hearts of the people, don't leak the news, I will deal with the matter here first." ”

Li Si didn't know that Zhao Gao was cheating, so he thanked him: "There is Master Lao Zhongche here." ”

Li Si left quickly, Zhao Gao let out a long breath, as long as the holy decree was in his arms, everything could be controlled, he wiped the sweat on his forehead at this time, looked at the door, standing in the car was his henchman Cheng Le, at this time he had closed the door of Luan Yu, looked at Zhao Gao, waiting for Zhao Gao's orders, after a short period of thought, Zhao Gao said: "Go and find Zhang Shaofu." ”

Cheng Le was ordered to go, Zhao Gao looked at the body of the First Emperor lying on the bed, couldn't help but snort coldly, picked up a piece of brocade cloth, and threw it on the head of the First Emperor, then walked to the imperial case and sat down, thinking in his heart, how to get through the difficulties.

At the moment, how to control Li Si is the most important, and the rest, as long as Li Si doesn't say it, he can arrange it calmly, just when Zhao Gao was thinking, outside the door, there was a sound of hurried footsteps, at this time the carriage stopped at some point, Zhao Gao looked up, Zhang Han opened the door and walked in quickly.

He saw the body of the First Emperor not far away, he instinctively wanted to salute, but was coughed by Zhao Gao, Zhang Han then remembered that the First Emperor was dead, so he walked quickly to Zhao Gao, saluted, and asked, "Lord Zhao is looking for me, is there something wrong?" ”

Zhao Gaolang laughed and asked, "Zhang Shaofu, do you remember how you climbed up in the first place?" ”

"Thanks to Lord Zhao's cultivation." Although Zhang Han was unhappy in his heart, he didn't want to offend Zhao Gao at the moment, at this time, Zhao Gao said again: "Now that Your Majesty has returned to the west, the ministers of the court and the central government are the most loyal to Zhang Shaofu, and Prince Hu Hai has also mentioned Zhang Shaofu many times, hoping to get the support of Zhang Shaofu." ”

Zhang Han heard the meaning of Zhao Gao's words, and immediately gave up his hand and said, "The lower officials are willing to serve." ”

Zhao Gao was secretly happy in his heart, Zhang Han has always been his own person, he is so tempting Zhang Han today, it is also a last resort, after all, the situation is serious, not to be sloppy, at this time Zhang Han to show loyalty, Zhao Gao Lang laughed and said: "In this way, I will say good things in front of Prince Hu Hai, he will ascend the throne in the future, and Zhang Shaofu will make great contributions." ”

"Lord Xie Zhao." Zhang Han thanked him again, at this time, Zhao Gao's eyes showed murderous intentions, looked at Zhang Han, and said coldly: "You go to give an order, the whole army is in the south of the sand dune, you secretly transfer people to block Li Si's camp, and you have protected the prime minister's safety. ”

Zhang Han pondered for a while, looked at Zhao Gao again, and had to leave with his fists clenched, at this time, Zhao Gao looked at the hourglass, then looked at the door, and said to Cheng Leling: "If someone comes, you can reply, Your Majesty is asleep, no one will be seen, and those who dare to trespass will be killed!" ”

。。。。。。

At night, Zhao Gao was busy with the business at hand, and hurriedly went to a big black tent, outside the tent, three hundred Qin soldiers held halberds, patrolling back and forth, at this time, they saw Zhao Gao coming quickly, because Zhang Han deliberately ordered, allow Zhao Gao to enter, the soldiers immediately divided into two rows, saluted Zhao Gao, and let him go.

In the big tent, Li Si wandered anxiously, he suddenly heard the sound of hurried footsteps, his heart was surprised, looked up, it was Zhao Gao, Li Si was slightly displeased, and asked: "Lord Zhao, what do you mean by this?" ”

Zhao Gao pretended to be innocent and asked rhetorically: "I came to visit late at night, why did Prime Minister Li Cheng say this?" ”

"Lord Zhao, why do you want to control my freedom!" Li Si was a little excited, but Zhao Gao waved his hand, came to the table and sat down, pointed to the opposite position and said with a smile: "Prime Minister Li, why is the anger so big?" Come, let's sit down and talk. ”

Although Li Si was unhappy in his heart, he still sat opposite Zhao Gao, and the two looked at each other for a while, and Li Si asked, "Has the holy decree ever been issued?" ”

"Prime Minister Li, now shouldn't be the time to discuss this matter, right?" Zhao Gao deliberately bit the three words of Prime Minister Li very hard, had emphasized his dissatisfaction, and looked at each other for a short time, Zhao Gao said again: "Just now I went to tell Gongzi about His Majesty's death, but I didn't expect that Gongzi would leave the holy decree!" ”

Zhao Gao pretended to be flustered, and said: "Now, Gongzi Fusu is far away in Mobei, and the only one who can influence the court situation and your life is ...... Gongzi Huhai."

When Zhao Gao said this, he paused, Li Si was so frightened that his hands trembled, and it took him a long time before he hurriedly said: "This is going to be a mess, we must stop Hu Hai Gongzi, otherwise, the Qin State is in danger!" ”

Zhao Gao saw that Li Si refused to conspire, so he was slightly angry, and drank: "Prime Minister Li, didn't you participate in the Confucianism case back then?" If Fusu ascends the throne, you and I will not be able to save our lives! ”

A sentence poked Li Si's weakness, he began to hesitate, at this time, Zhao Gao said again: "At this time, we have no way out, Hu Hai is on // position, we can still survive, otherwise, the door will be destroyed!" ……”
