Half a day.

Zhao Gao left the Hu Mansion.

He had a smile on his lips and walked briskly.

Apparently what you had come to expect.

When he walked out of the street where Hu Mansion was located, Zhao Gao stopped, stopped and looked back, and said in a low voice: "Hu Wujing, you have now deeply experienced the taste of losing power, I will provide you with a chance to turn over, you must seize it." ”

"If you miss this opportunity, there may not be a next time."

"Huh."

Zhao Gao sneered and left quickly.

Zhao Gao has been uneasy in the palace during this time.

Hu Hai became more and more alienated from him.

And for some of his suggestions, he became more and more impatient, and even didn't listen to it directly, which made Zhao Gao is angry, angry and frightened, his only chance to turn over now is on Hu Hai, if even Hu Hai gives up, then he has no hope at all.

So he couldn't sit still any longer.

It is necessary to be proactive.

It's just that Fusu's position in the court has become more and more stable a few days ago, even if Zhao Gao intends to do something, he really can't find a means, but just when Zhao Gao is becoming more and more desperate, Fusu made a mistake by himself.

The moment he heard the list of affairs offices, Zhao Gao's whole person was excited.

He knows.

Your chance has come.

And it was sent by Fusu on his own initiative.

Heaven and Buddha take it, but they are to blame.

Fusu has been too smooth sailing recently, and gradually got a little carried away, he got too much help from Ji Heng, so he was destined to be blamed, and Ji Heng was a Yan person, and he had a good impression of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms, so it led to the fact that there were not too many Lang officials on the roster this time, but Lang officials were the foundation of the imperial court, and they were also the cornerstone of the court's stability in the future.

Fusu himself abandoned it.

And after learning what happened to Hu Wujing, he immediately set his eyes on Hu Wujing, because this person was the last to be wooed, he had lost his position, he was also deprived of his official position, and he had no power at the moment, and Hu Wujing must be unwilling to lose power like this, if there is a chance to turn over, Hu Wujing will definitely grasp it firmly.

But Zhao Gao also knows.

After all, Hu Wujing has stayed away from the court.

It is not enough to rely on Hu Wujing, and it is far from enough.

But he didn't care.

Hu Wujing has been working in the court for so long, there will still be officials who will buy it, his purpose is to win over Hu Wujing's power in the court, and at the same time, with the help of some rhetoric, let the other courtiers in the court gradually have a dislike with Fusu, and then when Fusu makes a mistake the next time, the courtiers will be dissatisfied, thus forcing Fusu to be abolished.

This is just the beginning.

Besides.

He also became more and more disgusted with Ji Heng.

If it weren't for Ji Heng, how could Hu Hai be alienated from himself? How can you not trust yourself?

Now Hu Hai basically doesn't stay in the palace, he hangs out with Ji Heng all day long, he has no fighting spirit at all, and he has lost any ambition, which Zhao Gao can't tolerate.

But.

He was not in a hurry to persuade Hu Hai.

He knows Hu Hai.

The reason why Hu Hai didn't fight was that he couldn't fight, but if one day, he had a chance to win, Hu Hai might not have the heart to fight again, and then he would win back Hu Hai's trust.

He was not worried that his approach would cause Hu Hai to be dissatisfied.

After all

Who can resist the temptation of power?

Not on your own.

Hu Hai couldn't do it either.

Although he hated Ji Heng in his heart, he didn't dare to say Ji Heng's name directly, Ji Heng was a dead person after all, if it was exposed, it would cause His Majesty to be angry, and no one would be able to save him at that time.

Therefore, when Hu Xian said 'Mr. Zhong', he responded directly.

Ji Heng died.

But Mr. Chung is a living man.

He had just told Hu Wujing the address of 'Mr. Zhong', and as for what Hu Wujing would do, it had nothing to do with him.

He didn't care.

If Hu Wujing found out Ji Heng's true identity and poked it out, it would also be Hu Wujing's business, this is actually what Zhao Gao is happy to see, after all, Ji Heng is not dead, after all, someone needs to be responsible.

And Fusu is such a close trust, and he is destined to be affected.

At that time, you can even use this to pull Fusu down.

However, Zhao Gao also knew in his heart that an old fox like Hu Wujing would not easily let himself take risks again, and it was not easy to let Hu Wujing stir up this troubled water, and he would not be easily fooled, but the more he knew about Ji Heng's situation, he would one day not be able to contain it.

Then his chance will come.

The other side.

After Zhao Gao left, the Hu Mansion still closed the door.

Hu Xian stood aside and said with some concern: "Father, this Zhao Gao is probably not well-intentioned, he clearly knows that father, you have retreated from the court, but he still urges his father to anger His Highness." ”

Hu Wujing sneered and said indifferently: "You don't have to worry so much. ”

"How could I really listen to a eunuch?"

"But what Zhao Gao said is actually right, there is no right or wrong in the matter itself."

"It's just people who are wrong."

"If Fusu is no longer His Highness, then can the mistake I made this time still be considered a mistake?"

Hu Xian was stunned.

He thought about it in his mind, and there was a hint of surprise in his eyes, and he said uncertainly: "What my father did this time, in fact, the problem lies with His Highness, if His Highness is replaced, then there will be no problem with what you do, father, and it will even become successful." ”

"Just."

"It's just that His Highness is appointed by His Majesty, so how can it be easily changed?"

Hu Wujing nodded and said: "Your Highness is related to the stability of Great Qin in the future, and it will not be easily changed, but you are also present, since you heard what Zhao Gao said, our Royal Highness is a cronie of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, and even to the extent of faith in Mr. Zhong, the reason why there are not too many Lang officials this time is probably because I heard this person's nonsense." ”

"Your father and I have stepped down from the court."

"Although I have the intention to place you in it, there is really nothing I can do."

"But are the other courtiers willing?"

"Fusu is the prince of Great Qin, and now that there is such a big difference in political views with the courtiers, how can he not make other courtiers uneasy? If this highness of ours really only wants to believe officials from Kanto, do you think the courtiers will be able to sit still then? ”

"We fought this world."

"It's not Fusu!"

"Fusu obviously hasn't understood one thing yet, it is up to us to govern the world, not officials from the Kanto region."

Hu Xian's eyes lit up.

He already understood what Hu Wujing wanted to say.

What Fusu is showing now is his distrust of the court officials, this time it is only his distrust of the Lang officials, but if it is suddenly rumored that Fusu listens to a remnant of the Six Kingdoms and ignores the court officials, how can the court officials have no ideas at that time?

It is true that one or two people alone cannot shake the status of Fusu.

But what if it's the entire court?

At that time, even if His Majesty wants to protect it, I am afraid that he will have to weigh one or two, and at that time, the position of the prince of Fusu can really be stabilized?

Once Fusu goes down.

Is what his father Hu Wujing committed before still a thing?

It doesn't have to be a chance to come back.

Hu Xian said excitedly: "The child understands. ”

Hu Wujing shook his head and said coldly: "You don't have to be happy too early, this Zhao Gao is also selfish, he wants me to help Hu Hai Gongzi ascend to the throne, but he forgot, I, Hu Wujing, only offended Fusu alone, so as long as Fusu is not the prince, for me, the meaning is actually the same." ”

"As for Mr. Zhong mentioned by Zhao Gao, you go down and investigate carefully."

"Find out as much as you can about this person."

"If this person is really the person behind His Royal Highness Fusu, he may not be able to make some articles at that time, the prince of the dignified Qin Empire does not believe in the courtiers, but believes in the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, if this is spread out, how can it make people feel at ease?"

"But since this person has such trust from His Highness, if you are not completely sure, don't provoke it easily."

Hu Xian nodded.

Waiting for Hu Xian to walk out of the door, Hu Wujing paced back and forth in the house.

Long.

But it was hard to hide the smile on his face.

He whispered, "It's really the way to the sky." ”

"I thought that I had no chance to turn over, I didn't think that someone would take the initiative to send it up, but this Zhao Gao, a eunuch, dared to give birth to such a bold and reckless mind, I am afraid that he is not a good calculator, but if I want Hu Wujing to make a move, it is not enough to rely on these three or two tongues."

"You've got to do more!"

Lingling.

Less than half a month.

All the officials on the Fusu roster were counted.

Lingling is not a tall city, at best it is a new city.

The population is not large.

However, because of the proximity to the Ling Canal, and with the construction of the Ling Canal, the living environment in the vicinity has been greatly improved, so there are many more people settling in the city than in the past.

Now.

This is not a well-known town, but there are many cars and horses in the city.

Xiao He and Liu Ji had arrived in this city three days ago, and after reporting to the officials of Lingling, they also lived in the nearby arranged residence, and before them, many officials had arrived, and they could be regarded as taking a look at each other in the past few days.

Compared with Xiao He's calmness, in this environment, Liu Ji is even more like a fish in water.

It's almost noon.

Everyone gathered in a dining house.

However, Li Dan, Zheng Ru and others are not among them.

Although they are Lang officials, after all, they have a background, so they will not eat in this kind of place, but eat in the county government of Lingling, and this dining house is only about officials from the east.

This situation is tacitly understood.

Although they are also officials recruited by His Royal Highness, Li Dan and these people are the sons of courtiers after all, and their status is prominent, and there is still an obvious gap between them and them.

The crowd didn't care.

These officials from the Kanto region quickly became one.

Liu Ji sat at the end, not feeling angry at all.

After he had eaten and drunk enough, he patted his stomach, leaned on the side of the desk, and asked curiously: "You are all capable people from various counties and counties, do you know what His Highness summoned us for this time?" ”

There was silence all around.

No one was the first to speak.

Qi County Prison Peng Cao Ji hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "I have heard some rumors, but I don't know if it is true or not, it is said that His Royal Highness summoned us here to complete what Hu Hai Gongzi said in the army before, but it seems to be different." ”

Jun Wuzhu of Minzhong County shook his head and said, "We are too far away from Xianyang, what news can we hear?" Even if we really get the news, I don't know how many hands have passed it on, in my opinion, we still don't think about these things, and when His Highness comes down, we will naturally be clear. ”

Wuzhu's words won the approval of many people.

Liu Ji waved his hand and said: "I think it's better to inquire a little more, after all, those officials from Guanzhong have always looked down on us, they must know more news than us, and when His Royal Highness came down and told the matter, these people are doing well, and we are still confused, isn't it even more despised?" ”

"What can I do? The only thing we know now is what is written in His Highness's order, and as for the rest, where can we inquire about it? Those Lang officials who were born in Guanzhong are not all the way with us, how can they tell us if they have information? "There is humanity.

Liu Ji smiled and pretended to be mysterious: "This may not be. ”

"I've really asked about something these days."

Hear the words.

Everyone in the room couldn't help but look at Liu Ji.

Liu Ji helped his bamboo crown and said slowly: "Among the Guanzhong officials who came with him this time, in addition to those children of important ministers, there are also some ordinary officials in Guanzhong, and these people are also not in the eyes of those courtiers, but after all, they are close to Xianyang and know more things than we know." ”

"From them, I got some inquiring."

"His Royal Highness recruited us this time, which seems to have offended many people in the court, and this time he rarely recruited the children of those meritorious heroes, which actually shows that His Highness attaches great importance to us, but because of this, these people are also very popular with these Guanzhong officials."

"It doesn't really matter."

"We are here to do things for His Highness, and it doesn't matter if we are treated by others or not, and from these people, I also heard that we seem to be making arrangements for non-commissioned officers in the army, but we didn't ask what we were doing, and these people didn't know."

"We're in Lingling now."

"Adjacent to it is the Ling Canal, which can go down the river and reach the three counties of Lingnan, so when His Highness arrives, most of us will have to go deep into the hinterland of Lingnan."

Hearing Liu Ji's words, everyone frowned.

If Liu Ji hadn't inquired about the mistake, they might really want to enter the three counties of Lingnan, but once they entered the army, their status as officials in the Kwantung region would be dissatisfied with the Qin people, and if they acted at that time, they would cause a lot of incidents.

even

There may also be a danger to life.

The edict that Fusu gave them actually said something.

It is to ask them to deal with the affairs of the non-commissioned officers.

It's just that there is no mention of what happened to the non-commissioned officers and how to deal with it, but there are 500,000 Qin troops in Lingnan, and if this is not handled well, there will be a big problem.

Many people can't help but look worried.

Looked at.

Liu Ji said with a smile: "Don't be so alarmed, the so-called soldiers will block the water and cover the earth, aren't there many heroes now?" They are already arrogant, and when something happens, we can let these people do it first, and then we can learn from it. ”

"So you're a little patient these days."

"Don't really stiffen the relationship, it will be difficult to deal with it then."

"You are all talented people, but now the situation is unclear, you should tolerate and endure, you should give in, don't be rash, the situation is clear, you have your own room to play."

"You have to be patient first!"

Three watches will start tomorrow.
