Chapter 65 The Dune Transformation
Xiang Shaolong pondered for a moment, nodded and said: "I do agree with Mr. Fusu's opinion, and I also think that the construction of Efang Palace is a waste of money and people."

The First Emperor said, "Then why didn't you bring it up before him?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "Young master Fusu brought it up because he is not deeply involved in the world. I didn't bring it up because I am old and cunning."

The First Emperor laughed and said: "You also know that you are old and cunning. How dare you go to see me off if you are so old and cunning, not afraid of my wrath?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "I didn't bring it up because I was afraid that His Majesty would punish me, but because I thought it wouldn't change anything if I raised it."

The First Emperor asked, "Do you think I won't listen to persuasion?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "The world has not been stable for too long. Your Majesty has devoted all his energy to the national economy and the people's livelihood. How could he not know that the construction of Afang Palace is different from the construction of the country's infrastructure, but His Majesty still decided to build it. It is human nature to be greedy for pleasure , His Majesty is also rich in the world, and has worked hard for the country for many years. It is understandable that he wants to enjoy himself now. I just hope that His Majesty can treat the laborers well, provide generous returns for the laborers, and a little extravagance is fine."

The First Emperor said: "All the good people let you do it. If you don't speak out, when my son is reprimanded for speaking out, you will go to see him off again. Are you not afraid that I will take my anger out on you?"

Xiang Shaolong asked: "How will His Majesty punish me when he is angry?"

The First Emperor thought for a while, and said: "After you resign, I really have nothing to do with you. Now that you have no desires, I'm afraid that even if I take your title, you don't care."

Xiang Shaolong said: "Why don't I have an official position, I'm the president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences now."

The First Emperor said: "What kind of official is that? How can you compare with Cheng. The only thing you are worth now is the prince."

Xiang Shaolong secretly sighed, in the eyes of the emperor, the president of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is far less important than the prime minister, not only the emperor, everyone thinks so.

Xiang Shaolong also felt that his requirements were too high, and there would never be a day when he could put the two in the same position.

Xiang Shaolong still replied very seriously: "This dean is the most important position since I was in Qin Dynasty. It is more important than the prime minister and also more important than the king of Jin."

Emperor Shihuang didn't expect him to say that. This position has no real power, and many people don't even know what he does.

But he knew that Xiang Shaolong's choices had always been different, and he had always attached great importance to Xiang Shaolong's opinion, although he still couldn't see what was so great about this dean.

The First Emperor no longer bothered about the importance of this position, and continued to ask: "You have never made friends with princes and important ministers, why did you openly see off the degraded prince this time?"

Xiang Shaolong said: "I think General Meng's place is a good place. My Great Qin ruled the country by law, but Mr. Fusu was surrounded by a group of unsuccessful Confucian scholars. They taught Mr. Fusu benevolence and righteousness. Of course it is a good thing, but Confucianism alone cannot govern a country well. Going to the army to experience the test of blood and fire is a good thing for Mr. Su. I even think that every man should experience military life once. .To this day, I still often think of the heroic ambition of defending the border and fighting against the Huns. Ride the fastest horse, drink the strongest wine, and kill the most vicious enemy. Drink the wine in the cup and kill the heads of the enemies. Help Mr. Su It is not a good thing for him that he has not experienced any hardships from birth to now."

The First Emperor was also a man of pride and courage, but unfortunately, due to his limited status, he did not do such a pleasant thing. It was a pity that he couldn't help being jealous of his son, and said slightly mockingly: "Do you think this is because I value support? Su, so go to have a good relationship with the future emperor?"

Xiang Shaolong nodded, and said: "Yes. Mr. Fusu has traveled thousands of miles, and is alone on the road, isn't it desolate? I'll go to send some warmth, this is a rare opportunity!"

The First Emperor shook his head helplessly, Xiang Shaolong admitted everything, making him unable to sarcastically say a few words.

Of course, the First Emperor was not worried about Xiang Shaolong making friends with Fusu.Now that Xiang Shaolong has ascended to the top of the title, the official position was given up by himself, and he is more than ten years older than himself, and has no heirs. It can be said that he has no desires and desires. Maybe this is the reason why he resigned from the position of prime minister and concentrates on scientific research. Bar.

So all along, Emperor Shihuang treated Xiang Shaolong differently from others, he was not worried about his clique for personal gain, he was blinded by profit, and his personal relationship was closer, so he was willing to listen to his opinion.

Xiang Shaolong's arrival in this era has already changed many people and many things. When the time came to 210 BC, the First Emperor still started his eastward tour.

Xiang Shaolong didn't know whether this east tour would be the death of Emperor Shihuang, he couldn't even say a word to remind him, he couldn't explain his own prophecy, and he couldn't be sure whether the trend of history would change.

The First Emperor didn't invite Xiang Shaolong to go with him, because Xiang Shaolong didn't go on the previous few trips, and with Xiang Shaolong sitting in Xianyang, the First Emperor was very relieved.

Looking at the motorcade that the first emperor left, Xiang Shaolong still didn't keep him, but just watched him leave.

Xiang Shaolong felt that Emperor Shi Huang was in good health and he was in his prime, and he hoped that he could escape this catastrophe, and also let Da Qin escape this catastrophe.

He wanted to tell Li Si a few words, but he couldn't say anything, so he could only sigh in his heart, hoping that his worries were unfounded.

Ever since the first emperor left, Xiang Shaolong has been restless.Finally, Xiang Shaolong decided to write a letter to Master Fusu.

Xiang Shaolong would occasionally communicate with Fusu in the past two years, Shi Huang knew about it, but he didn't intervene.He knew that the relationship between Xiang Shaolong and Fusu was not that close, whether it was Xiang Shaolong or Fusu, he knew each other well and was very relieved.

There is nothing special about Xiang Shaolong's letters, they are just homely chatter.He mentioned that the first emperor set off on his east tour, and before leaving, he was still thinking about Mr. Fusu. He was very satisfied with his growth in the past two years, and hoped that he would continue to work hard, full of care and love.

In this way, once Mr. Fusu received the death edict from the first emperor, he would have doubts and not commit suicide rashly.

The great force of history crushed everything, and due to inertia, Shi Huangdi died on the road to the east.

What Xiang Shaolong received was not the news of Shi Huangdi's death, but the edict of Shi Huangdi forcing him to commit suicide.Xiang Shaolong knew that the First Emperor had passed away.

The edict said that he had the heart of disobedience, intended to rebel, and forced himself to commit suicide.

In fact, this was beyond Xiang Shaolong's expectation, he was never worried about his situation.All he thought about was Mr. Fusu and the Meng family. He looked at all this like an outsider, but he ignored that he was actually a person who could influence the government, and he was already in the middle of the situation.

Xiang Shaolong felt that with the state of the First Emperor when he left Xianyang, he shouldn't have died of illness suddenly. From a conspiracy theory point of view, the biggest possibility was that he was killed by Zhao Gao and Hu Hai.

It should be that Hu Hai knew that there was no hope of succeeding to the throne, so he united with Zhao Gao and made a decisive move, killing the first emperor, and then forcing the death of his competitors to succeed him.

In real history, they succeeded.But Xiang Shaolong is not someone who just sits and waits to die.He made a decisive decision, arrested the person who sent the order, and immediately wrote a letter to Fusu and Meng Tian, ​​believing that they should also receive the edict.

Xiang Shaolong bluntly said that Hu Hai and Zhao Gao murdered the First Emperor, and they also collaborated with Li Si to keep the funeral in secret, and wanted to make Mr. Hu Hai the emperor.

Ask Fusu to go back to Xianyang immediately, and Meng Tian raises troops to serve the king and arrest Zhao Gao, Li Si and Hu Hai.

He didn't say that he guessed all of this, but said that he got definite information, so he was afraid that the two of them would hesitate.

Xiang Shaolong summoned a group of ministers to directly take over Xianyang.

At this time, General Wang Jian is dead, and there are still a group of old subordinates such as General Li Xin, Wang Ben and Meng Yi in the city.He even made it clear to Meng Yi that the imperial edict to kill Meng Tian had been issued, and Zhao Gao wanted to clean up the court.

Gan Luo, the spy chief, is also in Xianyang. He is not well-known, and no one knows that he has a secret service in his hands.He had always believed in Xiang Shaolong, and believed in Xiang Shaolong's words.

Gan Luo is the real confidant of the first emperor, based on his understanding of the first emperor, it is impossible to kill Xiang Shaolong suddenly without warning.He also quickly activated his secret service agency and went to the sand dunes in person to cooperate with Xiang Shaolong and Meng Tian's actions.

It's not that Zhao Gao's talent is not high, otherwise he wouldn't be able to understand Li Si.

Zhao Gao felt that Xiang Shaolong would think that Emperor Shihuang believed the slander and sent Xiang Shaolong to prison. He would not resist violently, and would wait for Emperor Shihuang to come back in prison before defending himself.Unexpectedly, Xiang Shaolong directly guessed that the first emperor was dead, and even guessed about Fusu and Mengtian, and reacted immediately.

Mr. Fusu traveled day and night, hurried back to Xianyang, seeing that Xianyang was already under Xiang Shaolong's control, he felt resolute.

Mr. Fusu has been trained by the First Emperor as his successor, and the results are remarkable. He has both civil and military skills, both ability and political integrity, and all the officials in the court are convinced.The only surprise was that he offended his father last time and was dispatched to the border, but he also made friends with General Meng. At this moment, Xiang Shaolong is escorting him, so whether the ministers have doubts or not, they are still stable.

Mr. Fusu comforted the ministers first, and then discussed with Xiang Shaolong what to do next.

Fu Su bowed to Xiang Shaolong to the end, and said: "Thanks to His Royal Highness King Jin for saving my life this time, otherwise I would never have imagined that Hu Hai would be so vicious and dare to kill his father and brother."

Xiang Shaolong said: "His choice is also very normal. His Majesty has more than one son, but there is only one emperor. Under normal circumstances, he has no chance at all. If he is not poisonous, he will not be able to become the Ninth Five Supreme. I think he will make the same choice There are not a few people."

Fu Su was so shocked that he couldn't speak. He always took succession to the throne as a matter of course, and never thought of fighting for power, so he never thought that the power struggle would be so ruthless.

This is because the monarchy was first established, and everyone has little experience to learn from. Everyone is crossing the river by feeling the stones.After a long time, you will know that father and son, brothers turn against each other, and the extinction of human relations will happen again and again. The tragedy of human relations in the royal family is the worst in the world.

Xiang Shaolong appreciates Fusu's benevolence, but if he is too naive as an emperor, it will be of no benefit to himself or the country. He wants Fusu to understand the cruelty and ruthlessness of politics.
