Chapter 60: Speculation

Seeing Zhao Gao like this, Li Si knew that if he didn't explain it, he wouldn't admit it easily.

He simply didn't follow up on the question, and said slowly with a calm expression: "You also know how many things have happened in Xianyang City recently, and you have also seen the strength of Ran Fang, do you think this person is easy to deal with?" ”

"People like him, don't be an enemy easily, it won't do you any good."

Zhao Gao had obvious disdain on his face, and he couldn't agree with what Li Si said at all.

"It's just a small Confucian student, no matter how strong his strength is, he can't become a big climate."

"It's just that now it's because of His Majesty's favor that he has gained some fame, and in my opinion, it's not worth mentioning at all."

"You!"

Seeing that Zhao Gao looked like he didn't want to advance, Li Si had no interest in persuasion, and glanced at the other party with a faint expression.

"No matter what, now that Ran Fang is beneficial to Great Qin, and Your Majesty values him the most."

"If something happens to him, no one will be able to eat and walk around!"

"The old man is thinking about our feelings, and that's the end of it, as for how to do it, it's up to you!"

After speaking, Li Si made a gesture of please, signaling that Zhao Gao could leave.

Zhao Gao knew that Li Si should have found something, and this time he was just here to remind himself.

It seems that his plan is half successful, but now that Li Si is blocking it, I am afraid that this matter is not easy to continue.

He sat there without moving, hesitated for a moment and asked, "What do you mean by Your Majesty?" ”

Hearing him ask this, Li Si knew that he was asking when he would be able to get out of Xianyang Prison.

He didn't know the bottom of this matter, no one could guess His Majesty's thoughts, not to mention that Ran Fang also suspected that Zhao Gao did this matter, so His Majesty probably also had this suspicion.

He looked at Zhao Gao and shook his head, "Let's wait, who knows Your Majesty's thoughts." ”

"You go back first, and I'll let you know if there's anything."

"Xianyang Ling left a letter before leaving, taking all the blame, and His Majesty has received it."

Hearing this, Zhao Gao nodded, not surprised by this result at all.

He looked at Li Si with a smile, and said in a lazy tone: "Then I should congratulate Prime Minister Li now, presumably the prime minister has been selected now." ”

Li Si didn't say anything, smiled and said lightly, "Your Majesty is in charge of everything, I'll just listen to orders." ”

"Still, I'll warn you that there are some things that are better not to do."

"It's okay if Your Majesty investigates, but if Your Majesty directly follows Ran Fang's advice and doesn't investigate and determines that you did it, do you think you can still get out of this Xianyang Prison?"

"You are the person who knows Your Majesty best, what do you think Your Majesty will do to you?"

Listening to Li Si's words, Zhao Gao sat there without saying a word, not caring about the authenticity of his words.

After a while, he smiled, "Thank you Prime Minister for reminding me, the slave knows." ”

After saying that, he lifted the curtain and got out of the carriage directly.

Looking at his back, the smile on the corner of Li Si's mouth suddenly disappeared, and his eyes suddenly became gloomy, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a few moments, he whispered, "Keep an eye on it, and don't make any more mistakes." ”

Zhao Gao got out of the carriage and glanced back at the carriage, the smile on his face instantly dissipated, and then returned to Xianyang Prison without looking back.

When passing by Ran Fang's cell, he deliberately coughed lightly.

Just met Fusu's shocked eyes, he nodded slightly, and walked straight forward without greeting him.

Back in the cell, Hu Hai immediately greeted him.

He looked at Zhao Gao and said anxiously, "How?" Is my father going to let us out? ”

"No," Zhao Gao shook his head and said with a sigh, "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that we are still suspicious, and the assassination may be exposed." ”

Hearing this, the expression on Hu Hai's face suddenly became flustered, and he paced back and forth in the room.

Finally walked up to Zhao Gao and asked in a low voice, "What should I do?" ”

"Now those assassins haven't entered Xianyang City, do you want to inform them?"

"Father's ......"

Seeing Hu Hai so uncomposed, Zhao Gao's eyes were a little disdainful, he was obviously a prince, but he was so timid.

"Second son," he called out to Hu Hai, who was scurrying around the house, and pointed in the direction next door, reminding him that there were still Ran Fang and Fusu over there.

After Hu Hai calmed down, he continued: "Relax, those people are not what we are looking for, they are here because they hate Ran Fang's refined salt." ”

"Moreover, those people are all people from the salt merchants in Guanzhong, and there are even Baiyue's killers, who have nothing to do with us at all."

"Now that the case of refined salt has been revealed, we will be able to get out of this Xianyang Prison in a few days, what else is there to worry about at that time?"

Seeing that he was so confident, Hu Hai was a lot more relieved.

……

If it was said that some time ago, after listening to Ran Fang's words, it would be understandable that Zhao Gao was arrested.

Why?

He glanced at Ran Fang, who was sitting there, studying the newly brought peony flowers, and he didn't seem to care about anything, so he had to sit closer.

I tried to open my mouth several times, but I swallowed the words back to my mouth.

Although Ran Fang was focused, his expressions and movements were too obvious, and they all disturbed him.

"Young Master Su, what do you want to say when you want to speak?"

Now that Ran Fang has spoken, Fusu will not refuse.

He sat closer and asked in a low voice, "Sir, you say, will Your Majesty put Zhao Gao in Xianyang Prison now?" ”

Hearing this, Ran Fang raised his head and glanced at him inexplicably, as if he didn't expect him to ask such a question.

Then he lowered his head again and said indifferently: "Didn't Lord Zhang say before that Your Majesty has locked up Zhao Gao?" ”

"Now, it's supposed to be released, right?"

"After all, the biggest suspect in this matter is Zhao Gao, if he is locked in prison, I am afraid it will be difficult to catch anything, and he will not dare to do anything in prison."

"Only by letting him out and restoring his trust in Zhao Gao can he dare to do other things, so that he can catch the handle, and who are those people under him."

Fusu also felt that Ran Fang's words made sense, but when he saw Zhao Gao just now, he was indeed escorted in by the jailer.

Moreover, Zhao Gao should have coughed on purpose, just to let himself see him in prison, why is this?

"That being said, what if His Majesty suddenly decides to imprison him?"

This was inexplicable, Ran Fang put down the peony flower in his hand and glanced at him impatiently.

Stood up and put the peony flower on the shelf, before answering his question: "Your Majesty's decision, then who can guess?" ”

"Maybe it's to teach Zhao Gao a lesson, after all, Zhao Gao is also an old man by His Majesty's side, if he hadn't made a big mistake, His Majesty wouldn't have made up his mind to get rid of him."

"Now Zhao Gao's matter is not important, the important thing is Gu Siyuan's assassination."

Fusu's eyes flashed, he didn't understand why Ran Fang wanted to connect this matter with Zhao Gao, he thought for a moment and said, "Could it be that Zhao Gao did it?" ”
