Chapter 492: The Imperial Tomb Meets the Dead
"Why don't you want to be my disciple and come with me?" Chu Fei looked at the palace beauty in front of him with interest, this was the first time he had been rejected by others.
Seeing that a woman was able to completely fuse the medicinal properties of the elixir, Chu Fei had the idea of taking the initiative to accept apprentices for the first time.
"Because...... Because I'm waiting for someone to take me out of here. The palace woman said with some embarrassment.
If this was in front of other people, she would definitely not say such a rebellious thing, but the man in front of her is different, he has just suppressed the terrible Majesty, and he is a very powerful person, which makes people feel that they can open their hearts and don't have to hide their thoughts.
"Oh...... Are you waiting for your lover?" Looking at the woman's shy expression, Chu Fei seemed to have guessed something.
The woman nodded.
"Okay then, can you tell me who that person is?" Chu Fei asked curiously.
When the woman told Chu Fei the man's name, Chu Fei couldn't help but be surprised for a while.
Immediately, he couldn't help frowning, he didn't think that this Meng Yi was unreliable, but he knew that this person was loyal to Yingzheng, even if he loved Concubine Li in his heart, it would be difficult to betray Qin Shi Huang.
Thinking of this, Chu Fei couldn't help but be full of worries about the fate of the woman.
So, Chu Fei handed a paper crane made of Dao talisman into the woman's hand and said, "If you encounter any trouble in the future, or change your mind, you can use it to come to me at any time." ”
Although the woman didn't understand the specific meaning of Chu Fei's words, she still took it in her hand very cautiously and put it away like a baby.
......
"Lord Zhao, where is Your Majesty?"
After Li Si entered the palace, he saw that there was no figure of His Majesty except for Zhao Gao, and his face couldn't help but be full of question marks.
"Prime Minister, in fact, it wasn't Your Majesty who passed you on, but me!" Zhao Gao said with a grin.
"You?" Li Si frowned, puzzled.
You know, he is a prime minister under one person and above ten thousand, when did a eunuch dare to be so bold, dare to tease him, the prime minister, and falsely convey His Majesty's will, that is a capital crime, how many heads does he dare to do this?
"Lord Zhao, do you know that it is a capital crime to falsely pass on the holy decree!" Li Si said sharply.
Zhao Gao's face was not the slightest fear, and he was still smiling.
Li Si's brow furrowed even deeper.
"Prime Minister, of course I know that it is a capital crime to falsely proclaim the Holy Decree, but what if Your Majesty is gone?" Zhao Gao had a treacherous expression on his face.
"What do you mean?" said Lis.
"Your Majesty, he's dead. Zhao Gao said softly.
"What?"
Li Si was shocked, he didn't receive any news at all, and there was no rumor in the palace for such a major matter.
"Is Your Majesty really dead?
"That's not untrue, I saw it with my own eyes! Not long ago, His Majesty died in front of me. ”
Zhao Gao lied without a trace of discoloration, there are only four people in this world who know the traces of His Majesty, but now His Majesty is almost like dead, and it will never be possible to stand in front of the world, so he said that His Majesty is dead, and it is not a complete deception of Li Si.
Hearing Zhao Gao say this, Li Ston believed it, because Zhao Gao had the courage to arrange His Majesty's death.
Seeing Li Si's changing face again and again, Zhao Gao said: "Before His Majesty died, he issued an edict to help Su Gongzi return to Beijing, but before this letter was sent, His Majesty was already dead. Now, no one knows that this letter is in my hands. It's up to me to decide who will succeed you, what do you think, Prime Minister?"
Since you've already lied, don't care about another one.
This is both a tone of listening and an element of pressure.
Because if he wants to control the court, he must win over Li Si, just because he is a eunuch, the courtiers will not take him seriously, for this, Zhao Gao is still self-aware. Therefore, he had to pretend to pass on His Majesty's will to let Li Si enter the palace, just to pull Li Si into his camp.
Zhao Gao's words can be said to have grasped Li Si tightly, and Li Si couldn't hear the other party's deep meaning.
However, he must be the prime minister of Great Qin, how could he compromise like this, so he said with a serious and righteous face: "Lord Zhao, you are a remark about the death of the country, how can you say such a thing as a minister?"
Zhao Gao saw that Li Si was pretending, looking like a fake Taoism, and sneered in his heart, so he simply didn't do anything, and directly pulled Meng Tian out to compare with him Li Si.
"Prime Minister, the so-called once a son of heaven and a courtier, now that His Majesty is dead, how long do you think you can stay in the position of Prime Minister, Fusu Gongzi is resolute and brave and good at fighting, and he will definitely appoint Meng Tian as Prime Minister after he succeeds to the throne. And now the world is actually in the hands of me, Zhao Gao, as long as I say that Your Majesty has passed the throne to Prince Hu Hai before he died, and the fate of his Fusu and Meng Tian, including you Li Si, is not up to me. ”
Li Si's face changed several times when he heard this, and after listening to Zhao Gao's meaning, he was ready to support the son of Hu Hai to ascend the throne.
Being forced by Zhao Gao like this, Li Si immediately realized that if he did not obey, not only might he not be able to keep his official position, but he was afraid that he would not even be able to get out of this palace today. For there is not a conspirator who, after telling his own conspiracy, has left others alive who are not with him.
And even if Zhao Gao doesn't kill him now, he goes to Fusu, and he may not be reused in the future, if he attaches to Zhao Gao and supports Hu Hai, then he is a meritorious man.
With this idea in mind, Li Si decided to cooperate with Zhao Gao and jointly support the son of Hu Hai to ascend the throne.
Seeing that Li Si finally compromised, Zhao Gao couldn't help but be overjoyed.
"Prime Minister, you have made a very wise decision, after he waits for Prince Hu Hai to ascend the throne, you will still be the prime minister above 10,000 people under one person. ”
Li Si didn't have the slightest sense of joy, he knew very well that he was roasted on the fire, and he had no choice!
Seeing that the conspiracy with Li Si had been achieved, Zhao Gao quickly thought of another hidden danger, that is, Meng Yi, who was loyal to His Majesty.
His Majesty's sudden death, and rumors of Hu Hai, will definitely arouse his suspicions.
In order to avoid this hidden danger, Zhao Gao must eradicate Meng Yi.
"Now that Meng Yi is not in the palace, I asked my son Li You to lead someone to pretend to be a bandit but intercept and kill him. Li Si said after listening to Zhao Gao's analysis.
"That's very good!" Zhao Gao stroked his palm and smiled.
"Ah......h
But at this moment, there was an exclamation from inside the screen.
"Who?"
Concubine Li's expression changed, knowing that she had exposed her whereabouts and would definitely be persecuted by Zhao Gao and the others, so she hurriedly took out the paper crane that Chu Fei handed over to her and left a message to the other party to help Meng Yi immediately.
Soon, Zhao Gao caught Concubine Li who was eavesdropping on the screen.
"Prime Minister, now that this woman has heard our plan, she just doesn't do it......" Zhao Gao's face flushed ruthlessly.
"No, Concubine Li is Your Majesty's concubine after all, and doing so will definitely attract the suspicion of outsiders. ”
Li Si hurriedly refused, and then thought for a while and said, "Since Your Majesty is dead, it is better to let Concubine Li be buried with Your Majesty!"
"It's still your cultural people who have high ideas. Zhao Gao clapped his hands and said, I have to say that Li Si's plan to kill people is too high, it is completely reasonable, and it will not arouse the suspicion of others.
Some fragments flashed in Concubine Li's mind, but she was pulled back to reality again by Lin Fan's words.
"By the way, Yu'er, why didn't that monster dare to come in here?" Lin Fan suddenly thought of a question, so he asked curiously.
"That's because there's a ban on it, so he doesn't dare to come in. Concubine Li said.
"The monster didn't seem to be roaring any more. At this moment, Lu Yunxian suddenly spoke.
Lin Fan also listened carefully, and sure enough, he didn't hear the roar, but there was a faint sound of fighting.
Could it be that someone has come in again?
"Let's go, go out and have a look. ”
After Lin Fan and Lu Yunxian came outside, they soon saw that the four of them were fighting with Qin Shi Huang, and among the four of them, there were actually Zu Long and Li Qingxuan who they knew.
In the face of the powerful Qin Shi Huang, Zu Long and Li Qingxuan couldn't cause the slightest damage at all, and it was thanks to the other two that Qin Shi Huang was restrained, so they couldn't let the two directly face Qin Shi Huang's blow.
Although he didn't know who these two people were, seeing that Li Qingxuan and the two were in danger, he naturally couldn't stand by and watch, so he also joined the battle.
"Duan Fei, you're still alive!" Li Qingxuan was suddenly surprised when she saw Lin Fan appear.
Zu Long also immediately cast a surprised gaze.
"Yes!" Lin Fan couldn't help but sigh for a while, that time was really nine deaths, fortunately, the goddess of luck favored him.
"Huh......" The mysterious man suddenly saw Lin Fan's appearance, and suddenly showed a strange look.
"Husband, be careful!"
At the moment when the man was distracted, the woman exclaimed and reminded.
The man immediately dodged Qin Shi Huang's blow like lightning, and slashed at Qin Shi Huang's body, suddenly making a clanging sound, as if it had been slashed on a metal object, which was extremely hard.
Immediately afterwards, the woman hit the monster with a purgatory fire behind her back, but it only burned the white cloth wrapped around Qin Shi Huang's body, and her body was not affected.
The man's expression became more and more solemn, and sure enough, this monster was very difficult to deal with, and if he continued like this, not only would he not be able to subdue the other party, but he was afraid that he would be killed with all his strength.
Lin Fan also saw that the battle situation was unfavorable to his side, so he said to a few people: "Everyone come with me, avoid it first." ”
With that, he immediately broke away from the battle circle and ran towards the safety of the palace.
Although the four of them didn't know where Lin Fan was going to take them, they didn't have the heart to think about it at the moment, so they could only follow them all the way.
"Concubine Li!"
When a man saw Concubine Li in the palace, it was like seeing an old man he hadn't seen for a long time, there was no surprise in his eyes, only joy, and he seemed to have known that Concubine Li was here.
"Are you the disciple next to Mr. Chu?"
Concubine Li was also very surprised to see the man, because this was more than 2,200 years since she saw an old man of her own era in the real sense, and she had a feeling of being close to home.
