Ji Heng was speechless.

There are not even superfluous movements.

Still calmly drinking the glass of wine in his hand.

Looked at.

Fusu's expression was completely cold, he stood with his hands in his hands, and said coldly: "Since Mr. insists on this, then I won't force it." ”

"I know."

"I will not criticize the current situation that you have single-handedly promoted, and I know that by doing this, you are trying to completely lead yourself to the front of the stage."

"For the world to know."

"In order to use this to show his special status, to suppress other courtiers, and then to reduce the resistance and burden for the changes he will preside over in the future."

"I know all of this."

"You and I have known each other once, and I have made countless achievements for Daqin and the world, if these feats are true, I am afraid that the old prime minister Li Si who has retired will not be as good as you."

"But that's all over."

"After today, it will also be completely hidden, and it will no longer be known to the outside world, and you should be able to understand my intentions."

Ji Heng smiled and nodded.

He actually didn't pay attention to those things, and it was a deal, how could he care about those reputations and limelight?

Looked at.

Fusu secretly breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes were very complicated, the more Ji Heng was like this, the more Fusu felt a sense of aggrieved and helplessness, as if Ji Heng really didn't care about anything, and the fame and fortune that everyone in the world cared about, in his eyes, it was like a passing cloud.

None of them are worth a look.

However, because of this, he became more and more jealous of Ji Heng, and the more he showed no desire and no selfishness, the more terrible he often became.

for they are plotting greater.

Fusu looked at Ji Heng deeply, wanting to see something from Ji Heng's Gujing Bubo's face, but after looking at it for a while, he didn't see anything.

I can only see the traces left on Ji Heng's face by the years, but I can also vaguely see Ji Heng's restraint and composure under the washing of the years.

He turned around, no longer paying too much attention, and said lightly: "After today, the area where you live will be completely opened, and there will be no more attendants to escort you." ”

"The year of Ying Si will also leave from here."

"As for Hu Hai, if he is willing to stay here, he will stay, if he is not here, I will let him return to the palace, and you and the teachers and students of Yingsi Nian are over."

"And ......"

"I will fulfill my promise that year, and invest a part of the annual business tax into the Taixue you mentioned earlier, so as to cultivate students in other fields."

"And in the future, it will no longer be the 'Ji Heng' who has made great contributions to Great Qin, but the 'Zhong Heng' who I specially invited to restructure Great Qin."

"Everything in the past has nothing to do with you!"

"Don't mention it again."

Fusu didn't look at Ji Heng and said these things indifferently.

Ji Heng chuckled, accepted it easily, and said calmly: "There is nothing to do." ”

"And it's a deal, and when the deal is over, it doesn't matter to me for a long time, it's just that you care too much."

Fusu snorted coldly, noncommittal.

He can't afford not to care.

He can have such a high prestige in the world now, basically Ji Heng secretly planned, if it is known to the outside world, it will deal a great blow to his prestige.

It will even make people mistakenly think that he is Ji Heng's marionette, which is absolutely unacceptable to Fusu.

Nor can it be seen.

"I will fulfill you this time, personally put you in the car, and walk with me." Fusu said again: "This is also the last thing I can help you." ”

"The previous friendship between you and me is over."

Silence all around.

A breeze blew through the treetops and the leaves on the branches, making a rattling sound.

Ji Heng did not answer.

just calmly looked at the small courtyard, and finally walked out of the courtyard directly, without any stop or hesitation.

Looked at.

Fusu's face sank, and he quickly returned to normal, and then followed out of the courtyard.

Outside the hospital.

Ying Sinian, Hu Hai and others kept looking at the courtyard, and when they saw the courtyard door open, they also hurriedly looked at it.

into the eyes.

It's a man in a gray shirt.

The man's cheeks were very white, and he seemed to rarely work outside, and although his clothes were very simple, they were also very clean, but they were slightly whitish when they were washed.

The temperament is relatively literary.

Seeing Ji Heng walking out of the courtyard, even the attendants of the nearby guards couldn't help but look sideways, looking at Ji Heng curiously, curious about how capable this person was, and how much he could be valued by His Majesty.

Invited many times.

This time, it's even more in person.

I just looked at it a few times, and I didn't feel anything unusual, except for the long white spots, there was a trace of dust, and it was no different from ordinary people.

It's not like the fierce gods and evil spirits rumored by the outside world, nor is it like the three eyes and four ears rumored by the outside world.

Ji Heng stopped at the door, calmly looked around, his eyes fell on Yu Ke, and his eyes were slightly strange.

He still had a little impression of Miko.

I seemed to have mentioned it back then, but I didn't expect that I hadn't seen him for eight or nine years, and I had climbed to such a height, which was really like a world away.

Seeing Ji Heng looking at him, Yu Ke's heart tightened, and he didn't dare to nod in greeting, but he dared to hang his head slightly, not daring to look directly at Ji Heng's eyes.

Now Ji Heng is on the cusp of the storm, although he is very grateful in his heart, he does not dare to show it, otherwise he is afraid of suffering disaster for himself.

That's it.

Yi Ke couldn't help blushing and feeling ashamed.

But out of weighing the pros and cons, he didn't dare to make any more unnecessary moves, and seeing that Ji Heng didn't pay too much attention, he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Ji Heng's eyes fell on Gongzi Gao, Gongzi Jiang Lu and others, and several clan disciples also hurriedly saluted Ji Heng.

The attitude is very respectful.

They are very grateful to Ji Heng.

If it weren't for Ji Heng's help, they would probably still be living in fear, where would they have the opportunity to enter and leave the imperial city at will, let alone get a knighthood.

Subsequently.

Ji Heng's gaze fell on Hu Hai.

Hu Hai was still cynical at the moment, but he looked like Er'er, but when he met Ji Heng's gaze, he was still a little dodgy and didn't dare to look directly.

Ultimately.

Ji Heng's eyes fell on Ying Sinian, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, as if he was very pleased and satisfied with his student.

He bowed to the surroundings and said lightly: "Zhong Heng has seen you, and I am really ashamed to bother you to come here many times. ”

"I didn't want to be a leader."

"However, Your Majesty sincerely invited me and was willing to take on a heavy responsibility for me, and finally I Zhong Heng agreed."

The voice fell.

There was a commotion all around.

Ying Sinian and Hu Hai showed a look of horror, they had been with Ji Heng for many years, and they noticed the difference.

Zhong Heng?

What does this mean?

Although the edict under Fusu was indeed in the name of Zhong Heng, it was external after all, but now it was Ji Heng who took the initiative to say it.

And also.

Ji Heng's words are not right.

It is obvious that Fusu is begging Ji Heng to become an official, why has he become Ji Heng now, greedy for official positions? This is not Ji Heng's style at all.

And when Ji Heng came out just now, his meaningful eyes were just afraid that they also had a lot of meaning, what did he and Fusu talk about in the courtyard?

So that Ji Heng will have such a big change?

Ji Heng is a very proud person.

will never compromise and retreat easily, the first emperor couldn't do it back then, and Fusu couldn't do it, especially the names Ji Heng and Zhong Heng, although it is only a word difference, the difference is big.

In the past, Ji Heng did pretend to be 'Mr. Zhong', but he never really said his name, and now he has clearly given up his name.

He also gave up everything he had done in the past.

Why is that?

Yi Ke was also full of shock, but he didn't show it.

He didn't know as much as Hu Hai and the others, but he also knew that after these words, Ji Heng had been pulled to the ground from the cold and arrogant person in the past.

The difference between the two is too great.

For Ji Heng's reputation, it will also be a fatal blow.

Then.

Fusu came out.

His face was calm, there seemed to be a smile in his eyes, and he said loudly: "I heard that Zhong Hengjiu, in his early years, he also asked Mr. Zhong to help, but Mr. Zhong liked to be quiet in the past and did not want to be a leader, and I have never forced it. ”

"That's why I have to bother again and again."

"Mr. Xingzhong has always shown the greatest enthusiasm for Daqin and is willing to serve Daqin, and I am also very grateful in my heart."

"I came here this time specifically to ask for Mr. to become a professional, and now I have got my wish."

"Haha."

Fusu burst out laughing.

Laugh.

Fusu continued: "Today, I am so talented, I am very relieved, Zhong Heng, I am willing to ride with me to Xianyang Palace. ”

When the words fell, everyone was shocked.

Everyone was surprised, they didn't expect that this Zhong Heng was so appreciated by His Majesty that he was willing to let him ride in the same car with him.

To know.

Fusu is the Emperor of Great Qin, and it is a great honor to be able to ride in the same car with the emperor.

Ji Heng nodded lightly.

Then, the two boarded the chariot one after the other, and left the courtyard of Xicheng in full view of everyone.

Just not for a while.

Hu Hai and the others realized that something was wrong.

Because Wei Sheng went and returned.

And the carriage and horses prepared for Ji Heng before are still parked outside at the moment.

Then.

Wei Sheng trotted to Ying Sinian and said, "Eldest son, Your Majesty has an order, from now on, the prince doesn't have to study here." ”

"What does that mean?" Ying Sinian frowned.

Wei Sheng raised his eyebrows, looked around, and lowered his voice: "The minister doesn't know, this is His Majesty's commandment, but His Majesty only told the minister." ”

"The teacher-student relationship between Gongzi and Zhong Heng is probably over, and it has been over since Ji Heng changed to Zhong Heng."

"Childe's past master was Ji Heng."

"It's not Zhong Heng!"

Hear the words.

Yingsi Nian's face was displeased.

At this time, Hu Hai saw some clues and said, "You mean, you don't have to come over again in the future." ”

"Have you completely severed your relationship with Ji Heng?"

Wei Sheng showed a touch of embarrassment, but still nodded, and said helplessly: "This is what Your Majesty meant, the minister is just here to deliver the message." ”

"Father, what does this mean?" Ying Sinian looked dissatisfied and muttered: "I'm doing well here, why do you want to break off the relationship?" And get me out of here completely. ”

Hu Hai pondered for a moment and sighed lightly: "I'm afraid that your father's relationship with Ji Heng is stiff, and I don't want you to continue to be affected by it." ”

He was puzzled.

Why is this happening all of a sudden?

Without warning.

Wei Sheng showed gratitude, he didn't dare to talk nonsense about this kind of thing, he was a little wrong, but a catastrophe was coming, and with Hu Hai to help him speak, he also quickly changed the topic.

Wei Sheng said: "Prince Hu Hai, Your Majesty also said that if the prince is willing to return to the palace, he can also go back with the eldest prince, and the palace where you lived back then has always been kept for you." ”

Hear the words.

Hu Hai's eyelids jumped.

Then he shook his head very dryly.

"Go back?"

"I'm not going back."

"What's good in the palace, it's restricted everywhere, I'm just a white body, and it doesn't make sense to go to the palace, don't go back."

Wei Sheng smiled bitterly, and could only nod.

He added: "If Prince Hu Hai is unwilling to go back, His Majesty will not be reluctant, but there is one thing, but the minister wants to tell the truth." ”

"After today."

"The guards of the West City are going to evacuate."

"If Gongzi Huhai continues to live here, it will inevitably be a little unsafe, so the minister suggested that Gongzi should go back to the palace."

Hear the words.

Hu Hai and Ying Sinian's faces changed in unison.

If the previous two incidents only showed that Fusu was dissatisfied with Ji Hengsheng, now this withdrawal of attendants is even more unusual.

To know.

The attendants were arranged by the First Emperor back then.

is to prevent Ji Heng from being known to the outside world, and now that the attendants have withdrawn, doesn't that mean that Ji Heng can be known to the outside world.

But this is clearly impossible.

Then there is only one situation, that is, Ji Heng is really dead, and now there is only one hermit named Zhong Heng in the world.

This Zhong Heng is not Ji Heng.

Therefore, Ying Sinian had to return to the palace, and he no longer recognized Ji Heng's teacher-student relationship, he was also affected to a certain extent, and it was precisely because Ji Heng was gone, so naturally there was no need to guard.

In the future, Zhong Heng's life and death have nothing to do with Daqin.

"How is this possible?"

"Wei Fuling, did you really hear it right? Is this really my father's order? ”

"I don't believe it."

"My father and emperor used to trust the master and son so much, how could the relationship suddenly fall apart? And so thoroughly, so decisive?! ”

Wei Sheng smiled bitterly and said slowly: "The eldest prince, even if you borrow ten guts from the ministers, the ministers will not dare to tamper with His Majesty's dictation, this is indeed what His Majesty said himself." ”

"The minister has no lies."

"I don't believe it, I'm going to see Your Majesty." Ying Sinian looked incredulous, and after speaking, he walked in the direction of the imperial city.

Wei Sheng looked bitter, and arched his hand towards Hu Hai: "Young Master Hu Hai, now Your Majesty is with Ji ...... Zhong Heng is no longer the same as he was at the beginning. ”

"Childe, please make a decision early."

"The lower official retired first." Wei Sheng bowed and hurriedly chased in the direction where Ying Sinian had gone.

Hu Hai stood in place, watching the two leave, his face was cloudy, and he whispered, "What happened?" Why is this happening? And for all this, Ji Heng accepted it very calmly. ”

"Why is that?"

He turned his head to look at Gongzi Gao and a few people, and said curiously: "A few brothers, do you know the inside story?" ”

Gongzi and the others glanced at each other, all of them looked dazed, and then shook their heads and said, "I don't know, but some time ago, His Majesty convened many courtiers to discuss some things, but in the end, it was over." ”

"And that's it."

"Judging from the degree of your majesty's break with Ji Heng, there is only one possibility, that is, Your Majesty thinks that he has been betrayed, or that he has been stabbed in the back by Ji Heng."

"Otherwise, it wouldn't have been like this!"
