Chapter 215: Affection and Reason
The news of "Shang Jun's rebellion" and "Wu Anjun's rebellion" was like a meteorite falling on Chang'an, causing a huge shock in the entire city.
The residents of Chang'an City have long been accustomed to living a peaceful life under the protection of the imperial monarchs, but now that the two monarchs have had accidents one after another, they are inexplicably a little panicked.
So much so that rumors spread in Chang'an City, Chang'an Mansion and Tingwei Mansion were like great enemies, and there were obviously several times more people patrolling the streets, and countless people were arrested because of indiscriminate openings.
......
Lin Ze quickly got the news, and he had a lot of thoughts in his heart, he didn't need to think much about this matter, he could guess that all this was the handiwork of Emperor Qin, and he was attacking those grandmasters step by step.
Immediately after that, Chen Ping hurried over, and didn't care about taking a breath, so he said to Lin Ze: "Uncle Shi, the latest news just came, Your Majesty issued an order that the commander will be selected in the court, lead the army to crusade against the Shang Jun, and order the ministers to recommend themselves or recommend suitable candidates. ”
Lin Ze frowned and said: "Your Majesty ordered Wu Anjun to go to war, after he disobeyed the order and refused to fight, I am afraid that the only people left in the court who have the ability to crusade against Shang Jun are the old lady Wei Yu and the Marquis of Wucheng Wang Qian, it stands to reason that there is no need to go to such great lengths, could it be that Your Majesty is still trying something."
"Or Your Majesty is worried that there will be another phenomenon of resistance to the decree, which will damage your majesty, so you will adopt this method of self-recommendation and other recommendation to determine the personnel who will go on the expedition. ”
Lin Ze sighed: It's still not enough strength, and the information obtained is too little, so it's really difficult to guess what this emperor really thinks.
Just as Lin Ze was thinking about it, Hu Hai ran over with Huang Banban and shouted: "Lin Ze, something big has happened, Shang Jun has rebelled." ”
After hearing this, Lin Ze just wanted to cover his forehead, can you be a little slower with this news At the same time, he glanced at Chen Ping.
Chen Ping understood and said softly: "Before I came, I asked someone to send a message to my son." ”
Lin Ze was relieved, Chen Ping was right to do this, no matter what, the news should be sent to Hu Hai as soon as possible, and the priority should be clear, otherwise he would be cooked by a rabbit and a dog sooner or later.
Lin Ze said lightly: "Childe don't panic, this matter can't affect us yet, we just need to wait and see what happens." ”
Hu Hai looked at Lin Ze innocently and said: "It has already spread, just now a little eunuch came to pass the decree, and my father summoned me into the palace to discuss the crusade against the traitor Wei Ying." ”
"This son thought about it and didn't know the bottom in his heart, this didn't let people drag the little eunuch, so he hurriedly asked you about the plan. ”
Lin Ze......
Lin Ze asked rhetorically: "What does that son think about this matter?"
Hu Hai tilted his head and thought about it, and said: "This son thinks that Shang Jun and Wu Anjun are both my Great Qin Pillar Stones, and this son should persuade his father to focus on the overall situation, investigate the situation clearly and then draw conclusions." ”
Lin Ze said undeniably: "Zhongshu Ling has ever passed on the news to his son"
"Ao, that's right" Hu Hai suddenly remembered and said: "The teacher sent someone to send three words, don't plead." ”
In this way, Lin Ze had a bottom in his heart, and said: "Since the Zhongshu Order has asked Gongzi not to ask for mercy, Gongzi can keep silent as much as possible, if His Majesty asks, Gongzi only needs to express his support for His Majesty." ”
Hu Hai was dissatisfied: "But anyone with a discerning eye can see that it is impossible for Shang Jun to rebel." ”
Lin Ze said with a sigh of relief: "What a clear-eyed person thinks is not important, what matters is His Majesty's heart. ”
Seeing that Hu Hai didn't quite understand, Lin Ze further explained: "Please think about it from Your Majesty's point of view, Gongzi, as Your Majesty's biological son, do you want your son to reason with him and disobey yourself, or do you want your son to stand on your side unconditionally." ”
In Lin Ze's opinion, if it is in the future life, this may be a difficult choice, but this is in Great Qin, Hu Hai must choose to stand on the side of Emperor Qin.
Only in this way can Hu Hai get closer to that seat.
Hu Hai still couldn't understand and said: "My father will also make mistakes, and I am helping him correct his mistakes." ”
Lin Ze replied solemnly: "Childe, you are wrong, Your Majesty will always be right." ”
As an emperor, you can't be wrong, the wrong can be a courtier, or a god, but not the emperor himself, this is an inevitability of the ancient feudal system, even if the sacrifice is great, but also to maintain the majesty of the emperor.
Hu Hai was silent.
......
In the Palace of Cultivating the Heart, the four people who had been summoned, Li Si, Wei Yu, Wang Jian and Meng Fu stood in the middle in a row, quietly waiting for Emperor Qin's orders.
Fusu and Hu Hai stood behind the four.
Emperor Qin's deep and majestic voice echoed in the main hall: "Wei Ying's intention is to rebel, who is willing to be the commander, and capture him for me"
Emperor Qin went straight to the point when he opened his mouth, which showed that he was iron-hearted.
Fusu couldn't help but stand up and said, "Father and Emperor, the son has something to say." ”
Emperor Qin glanced at him coldly and replied, "Say." ”
I saw Fusu say with a straight face: "Erchen thinks that Shang Jun's rebellion may have hidden secrets, why didn't my father call him back to Chang'an and justify himself."
Emperor Qin's face immediately became gloomy, and Fu Su still didn't know it, and said to himself: "You must know that Shang Jun has made great contributions to my Great Qin, and he is loyal, if his father kills Zhongliang by mistake, doesn't this make people all over the world chill?"
I only heard Emperor Qin say coldly: "Then who will tell Wei Ying for me, rush to Chang'an, and plead not guilty?"
Fu Su said with a happy face: "If my father has orders, my sons will volunteer to serve." ”
Emperor Qin sneered: "Fusu, Fusu, you are really out of your mind, you want to ignore the safety of the empire and win over that Wei Ying." He's loyal, what's the matter, you've dug it out and seen it"
Fusu was suddenly reprimanded, and he was at a loss for a while, standing there, his face was extremely ugly, and it took a long time to react, and he wanted to say more.
Emperor Qin would give him a chance, and directly scolded: "Shut up for me, listen well." ”
Fusu looked helpless and stepped aside.
Emperor Qin was still angry, and said coldly: "Hu Hai, tell me, what do you think of this matter?"
Hu Hai remembered Lin Ze's reminder, but he didn't speak according to his thoughts after all.
Instead, he said: "Father, the son is dull, and he can't tell the right from the wrong in this matter. However, Erchen knows that his father will not be wrong, so his father's thoughts are Erchen's views. ”
After hearing this, Li Si in the front row glanced back at Hu Hai suddenly.
Emperor Qin was also stunned when he heard this, and then smiled with relief: "That's right, I won't be wrong." ”
Fusu, who was standing on the side, was extremely angry: Hu Hai actually flattered his father for the sake of sycophancy, and reversed black and white to say that his father was right, which was extremely hateful.
However, no one in the hall paid attention to him.
