Hu Hai left.

With a look of confusion and incomprehension.

Regarding Hu Hai's departure, Ying Sinian looked at it curiously, and didn't think much about it, but just moved the 'paper' made by Hu Hai to a cool place to avoid the 'paper' that had just been made from being exposed to the sun, and eventually there would be problems.

It's hot.

Ying Sinian didn't stay in the side courtyard for too long.

Soon went to the shade of the trees.

Holding a bamboo fan in his right hand and a bowl of herbal tea in his left hand, he looked at the book quite leisurely.

As for Ji Heng, he didn't bother, Ji Heng has always liked to enjoy the cool at the door, from time to time he would look through a few rolls of bamboo slips, and sometimes muttered a few words in a low voice, but he didn't really hear it, and some of the words were also very weird, and he couldn't hear the specific meaning.

The courtyard was quiet.

Only the mulberry trees in the courtyard rustle in the hot wind.

City.

The hot and dry weather has greatly reduced the popularity of the city.

It's just that at this moment, there are a lot more cars and horses in the city, galloping all the way in the city, rampage, as if they are on the straight road, and it also startles the city people on the side of the road for a while.

Hu Mansion.

Hu Wujing was already dressed in black and wearing a high crown.

The look was a bit of style and majesty.

Hu Xianhou was on the side.

Looking at Hu Wujing's spirit, he couldn't help but praise: "Father's majesty, my Hu family has been low for more than a year, and now when it is finally time to raise his eyebrows, my father is still wearing this black dress to show more majesty." ”

Hu Wujing chuckled, shook his head and said: "It's not the same year after all, when I wore a deer crown on my head, a black Xuanxuan, a wat board in my hand, and a bag hanging from my waist, which contained silver seals and green ribbons, now it's just a clumsy imitation." ”

"But after today."

"Your father and I will be reinstated."

"It is even very likely to go further, although it is difficult to be included in the position of prime minister, but Jiuqing's position should always go forward."

Hu Wujing smiled.

Hu Xian nodded and said, "The child congratulated his father in advance." ”

"It's just news from Zhao Gao, but seriously? If it's a business trip, something big will happen. ”

Hu Xian couldn't help but be suspicious.

Hu Wujing hesitated for a moment, shook his head and said: "This shouldn't be, Zhao Gao doesn't dare to lie to me, he is the mastermind in this matter, if something really happens, he himself will not escape death, and it is impossible to die at will, since he dares to communicate with us, it must be the first emperor who really has something to do, otherwise he wouldn't dare." ”

"Now everything is ready, all we have to do is the final edict."

"Once the edict is in order."

"The prince of Hu Hai is the second Qin appointed by the first emperor."

"General Zhao Tuo and others, I'm afraid that they will go to the palace early, control the nearby palace gate, and when Fusu arrives, they will directly fire arrows, and with Fusu killed, at that time, who would dare to question the problem with His Majesty's edict?"

"They can only support Gongzi Hu Hai as the emperor."

"It's almost time."

"Are the carriages ready?"

"Today."

"I, Hu Wujing, will return to the court."

Hu Wujing's face was solemn, and his eyes were full of excitement and excitement.

He had waited too long for this moment.

Hu Xian said respectfully: "The carriage and horses have already been prepared, just waiting for my father to get into the car." ”

Hu Wujing nodded, flicked his sleeves, put his back behind him, and strode out of the house.

Although he was dressed in black, it was extremely hot in this hot summer, but Hu Wujing didn't care about this, compared to his official reinstatement, what is it to bear this heat? And isn't he enjoying the dignity brought by this black robe?

Hu Wujing stepped into the carriage.

Drive towards the Royal Palace.

Outside the palace, there were already people arranged by Zhao Gao to respond.

And the reason why Hu Wujing dared to be so bold, in addition to receiving a letter from Zhao Gao, another reason was that he had been inquiring about the situation of the first emperor, and in the past few days, the medical hall in the city was temporarily closed, and all the imperial doctors who were sitting in the clinic were also hurriedly called back to the palace.

The implications speak for themselves.

Besides.

He heard from other courtiers from time to time that the first emperor's health was getting worse and worse, and he was reluctant to even preside over the government, and now the great dynasty is basically dominated by Fusu alone, and the first emperor just sat on the side and pressed the formation, and there were no words in the whole process.

And today it is hot.

The First Emperor is very prone to accidents.

He also knew the dangers of the trip.

But he didn't have a choice.

If he didn't dare to give it a go, his Hu clan was destined to decline more and more, and he would become more and more unpopular.

And what Zhao Gao planned was their best opportunity.

He is a frustrated.

Zhao Gao is the same, and Zhao Tuo is the same.

There are also five doctors, Zhao Hai, Yu Shide and so on.

They are all frustrated.

They are all greedy for power.

The temptation and charm of power are too great for anyone to refuse.

They are all eager to turn around.

Hu Wujing sat upright, although white sweat was breaking out on his forehead, he was unmoved.

His mind is no longer in the car, but in the palace and in the court, and he is even thinking about what kind of attitude he should take to face the courtiers when Zhao Gaoli Si and others succeed in usurping the edict, not only to show his talents, but also to justify his name.

Hu Wujing thought so.

The carriage galloped all the way down to the outside of the imperial city.

As Hu Wujing handed over a jade seal, his carriage and horse were soon released.

After Hu Wujing's carriage and horses entered, the gate of the imperial city was also closed.

But.

The move didn't cause anyone to take notice.

It's sparse and ordinary.

In the palace.

Zhao Tuo also wore a black Xuanxuan, but instead of wearing the 'hedgehog crown' worn by officials such as Tingwei and Yushi, he wore a 'martial crown', with a mink tail inserted in front of the 'martial crown', decorated with 'Jin Jue', and a pair of 'crane tails' on both sides, which is the meaning of showing bravery.

Today's Zhao Tuofei is the chief general of the South China Sea Army.

It should have been wearing a pig crown.

Now he is wearing a martial crown, which is quite meaningful.

It's just that Zhao Tuo is now full of worry and uneasiness in his eyes.

He already regretted it.

regretted that he was moved by Zhao Gao's words and was involved in this palace strife, especially when he thought of what he was going to do, his face was even more bitter, he did admit that he had suffered injustice, and he was indeed dissatisfied with the court, but it was never to the point of trying to be poor.

If it doesn't work out this time.

It's all over my own people.

Come to think of this.

Zhao Tuo's face was gloomy as water.

But soon, his eyes changed to firm and decisive.

There was no turning back from the bow.

As the chief general of the South China Sea Army in the past, he is well aware of this truth, and he will not change his mind before the battle, even if he regrets it very much in his heart, it is impossible to turn back now, and he can't turn back.

Otherwise, both horizontal and vertical will die.

No one can accept such a courtier.

Zhao Tuo said in a deep voice: "The matter has come to this, and I can't think about it anymore. ”

"I, Zhao Tuo, went to the soup for His Majesty, and served the stability of the world, but because of an accident in the South China Sea, I was so snubbed."

"Wu'er is still relegated to Kanto, not an inch can enter, if there is no accident, I am afraid it will be difficult to return to Guanzhong, I Zhao Tuo was originally the main general of the South China Sea, and now it is only for a pawn, for the attitude of the court's dislike, it has been revealed, not that I Zhao Tuo has different intentions, but the court does not allow ministers."

"I, Zhao Tuo, just want to do more for Daqin."

"What's wrong with me Zhao Tuo?"

"If he hadn't been bewitched by Zhao Gao at the beginning, the minister might have a way out, but since the ghost was confused by Zhao Gao's words at that time, the minister couldn't turn back, as a general, he was disloyal to His Majesty, and he had two hearts, no monarch could tolerate the minister, and it was impossible for the minister to live again, there was no way to retreat, His Majesty was both a minister, and the minister could only take a risk once for himself."

Let's talk about it.

Zhao Tuo's eyes were resolute.

He tightened his sword and looked at the hundreds of guards below.

Completely ruthless.

Boom!

A sharp cold light appeared, Zhao Tuo pulled out his long sword, and said solemnly: "Second and third sons, listen to my orders, follow me to Zhangtai Palace to change guards." ”

"After that, wait for my follow-up orders."

"Let's go!"

Zhao Tuo waved his hand and walked in the forefront.

He didn't dare to say bluntly that something happened to the first emperor and asked them to guard the palace, but he only dared to replace the soldiers who were originally guarding outside the Xianyang Palace in the name of changing guards, so as to facilitate the follow-up operation, otherwise the soldiers below may not agree.

After all

The prestige of the First Emperor in the hearts of the subjects of the world was too high.

Let the palace guards rebel.

It's simply not realistic.

Only when it was determined that the first emperor had died, Zhao Gao's edict was successful.

In this case, these soldiers will really let go of their doubts and obey the order to take action against Fusu.

Meanwhile.

There are still some abnormalities in the palace.

It's just that the movements are all slight, and they don't get much noticed.

Fusu has not received any news now.

is still in Xianyang Palace to deal with the day's government affairs.

The other side.

Zhangtai Palace, the first emperor's dormitory.

Now there is full martial law outside the palace.

Only in but not out.

Zhao Gao didn't know when he appeared in the corridor outside the hall, and when he saw Zhao Gao appear, a eunuch ran over from the shadows.

Zhao Gao nodded, hurriedly walked towards the shadows, looked around vigilantly, and asked in a low voice, "Is there a mistake in the news you transmitted?" Your Majesty is really not going to do it? ”

The eunuch nodded hurriedly and said, "How dare the little one lie?" ”

"It's not a small one, it's the imperial doctor in the palace who said it, and the small one heard it with my own ears."

"Now the imperial doctors in the palace have been watched by Zongzheng, only two or three people are left in the palace, when I came out, Zongzheng had already sent someone to call Prime Minister Li Si and His Royal Highness Fusu, Your Majesty is afraid that it will really not work this time." The eunuch looked sad.

Hear the words.

Zhao Gao frowned.

He said coldly: "What do you mean, that is, you have not personally determined that Your Majesty is dead?" ”

The eunuch smiled bitterly: "The chief official said that he was joking, the little one is just a eunuch, how can he be qualified to inspect these?" Now the small ones can't even get close to His Majesty, and they are not small, and the other eunuchs and maids are not allowed to approach, it's been a few hours. ”

Zhao Gao's gaze was uncertain.

He also knew that what the little eunuch said was true.

But there was some uneasiness in my heart.

I can't be sure that the First Emperor is really dead, then there are variables in everything, and this variable is not something they can bear, once the First Emperor is not dead, they are exposed, then they will all die, and none of them will live.

Zhao Gao raised his eyes, looked at the vigilant attendants around him, and said in a low voice, "What is the situation in the hall now?" ”

The eunuch lowered his voice and said: "Now there are only Zongzheng and two imperial doctors in the palace, as for the eunuchs and maids who originally served His Majesty, they were all called out and were not allowed to approach the main hall, but I listened to the words of the chief and gave an errand with another eunuch, and I went to pass on His Royal Highness Su." ”

Zhao Gao bowed his head.

He said in a deep voice, "You did a good job. ”

"You wait another half an hour, and you can go to Fusu."

"Huh?" The eunuch was stunned for a moment, and said with some confusion: "Chief, what are you going to do here?" It's been a lot of time now, and if it's delayed any longer, if something happens, the little ones can't afford it. ”

Zhao Gao's eyes closed slightly, and he said with pity: "Don't worry, I can't blame you." ”

"You just have to do it."

After speaking.

Zhao Gao walked towards Zhangtai Palace.

He didn't come closer, just waited, as if waiting for someone.

Not for a while.

A panicked figure came into view.

At this moment, Li Si had messy hair and beard, and he didn't have the slightest temperament of a prime minister, obviously he heard something.

Zhao Gao showed a touch of respect on his face, walked over, bowed to Li Si very humbly, and said respectfully: "Zhao Gao has seen Prime Minister Li Cheng. ”

Li Si frowned, and said in a condensed voice: "Zhao Gao? ”

"What are you stopping me for?"

"Do you know what a felony it is to obstruct the ministers of the court?!"

Zhao Gao smiled and said: "The lower officials are not talented, and they have also read the laws and regulations, so they know the crimes. ”

"The reason why the lower officials stopped the prime minister was that there was really something important to discuss."

Lees was unmoved.

He said coldly: "Zhao Gao, I came this time on the orders of His Majesty, how dare you stop me?" ”

Zhao Gao's gaze was uncertain.

He indifferently glanced at Zhangtai Palace, and then looked outside the heavily guarded hall, with a hint of fierceness and struggle in his eyes, in the end, the desire for power overwhelmed reason, and also overwhelmed the current uneasiness.

"Your Majesty?" The corners of Zhao Gao's mouth swept up with a sneer, shook his head and said, "It is not Your Majesty who has passed you on, but Zongzheng." ”

"And"

"If there is no accident, Your Majesty has died."

Hear the words.

Li Si's face changed in shock.

His face was full of horror, he pointed at Zhao Gao angrily, and shouted angrily: "Zhao Gao, do you know what you are talking about? ”

"Just these words are enough to punish your three clans!"

As he said the words 'Your Majesty has died', Zhao Gao seemed to have completely opened the shackles, his eyes were full of madness and hideousness, and he hissed: "Of course I know what I'm talking about?" I also know exactly what I'm talking about. ”

"But it's true."

"Your Majesty is indeed dead."

"I, Zhao Gao, have been in the palace for many years, and I have a few close people around me."

"And they are now serving by His Majesty's side."

"I know more about Your Majesty's situation than you, Your Majesty's body has long been overwhelmed, although the medicine stone has been continuing, but how long can the dying body last? The fire is flowing in July, the weather is scorching, and Your Majesty's body can't support it, what's the problem? ”

"But none of that matters."

"I, Zhao Gao, don't want to tell you this."

"I just want to discuss one thing with the prime minister this time, one thing related to the prime minister's future power."

"Do you really want to assist Fusu?" (End of chapter)
