Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 212 A man must not be powerless for a day! (seeking subscription)

With Ying Zheng's departure, many people began to speculate secretly.

Because there seems to be no need to discuss the candidate for the crown prince.

Hu Hai voluntarily gave up.

Then it can only be Fusu, why bother?
Many people are very puzzled.

Li Si walked out of the main hall, glanced at Xianyang Palace, and left with a flick of his sleeves. Although he didn't know much about it, he understood that many things might happen in the court next time. He couldn't see what he wanted to do.

Fusu was not present the whole time, which seemed even more strange.

Zhang Cang walked out of the hall.

He was also a little confused.

However, it is a good thing for Daqin Chaotang that Daqin decides to be the crown prince. At least if something happens, Daqin will not fall into the situation where the dragons have no leader. Chu, but Fusu was not present.

No matter how you think about it, something is wrong.

He didn't figure it out either.

subconsciously.

He thought of Ji Heng.

He felt that Ji Heng must know the reason.

It's just that he didn't have much contact with Ji Heng, and he didn't have the qualifications to meet him. Although he was full of doubts, he could only hold it in his stomach and didn't dare to ask it rashly. Besides, he had been avoiding the limelight for the past few months. I will never throw myself on the bright side.

But he also knew it in his heart.

Your Majesty must have a deep meaning in doing this.

But Hu Hai gave up, which was really beyond his expectation. He still knew a little about Hu Hai. It's a bit weird to give up directly.

Zhang Cang frowned and said, "What's going on? Why am I so confused?"

Zhang Cang raised his head, looked at the palace, and left quickly.

the other side.

As soon as the court meeting was over, Zhao Gao went to Hu Hai, with an obvious sullen look on his face, but still suppressing his anger, he asked, "My lord, why did you give up such a good opportunity this time? This kind of opportunity Once you miss it, it’s gone forever.”

"Du He, Yao Jia and other important ministers of the nine courts are so optimistic about the young master. As long as the young master says a few more good things about himself in the court and wins over the courtiers, many ministers will be close to the young master. The young master will also formally talk to the eldest son in the court hall. With the ability to stand against the court, why did the young master give up so easily?"

"Young master, do you know what you missed?"

"What you said not only ruined your future, but also offended all the courtiers who supported you. Even if you think about it again, it will be difficult for you to win their trust. My son, why are you so confused this time? ah."

Zhao Gao was going crazy with anger.

He couldn't figure it out, let alone figure it out, let alone understand it.

Hu Hai was a little afraid to look at Zhao Gao, and he didn't have much confidence in his heart. He knew how much Zhao Gao had done for him, and he knew how much Zhao Gao had put in for him, but he really wanted to understand that he didn't rule the world The ability, there is no way to convince the courtiers.

He sighed softly: "Zhao Gao, I know you are very puzzled by my actions, but I, Hu Hai, as the son of Great Qin, how can I plunge the world into disputes for my own benefit?"

"You know how capable I, Hu Hai, are. I'm not good at being an emperor, and I don't have the ability. This time when something happened in the South China Sea, I'm going to make a lot of ugly appearances. If it wasn't for Ji Heng's help, I might not be able to step down at all, but In this situation, if I really become the crown prince, I will definitely face more, how can I, Hu Hai, have the ability to face it?"

"I can't do well."

"If you do well, if you don't do well, let's talk about it. First of all, you must be the first." Zhao Gao said with hatred: "Young master, you are not even the crown prince. Why do you think so far? Even if some emergencies do happen, The young master can’t solve it, isn’t it still me? I, Zhao Gao, can’t do it, there are others, there is always someone who can do it.”

"And how can it be so difficult to be the crown prince?"

"It's enough to deal with the reports every day and look at some political affairs."

"My lord, you were clearly intimidated by Ji Heng."

"Then what did Ji Heng tell you, young master? You can't even trust me, young master. I, Zhao Gao, have been with you for more than ten years. I have known you for more than ten years. Could it be that I am no match for Ji Heng?" Is it a year?"

"I, Zhao Gao, have never harmed the young master?"

Zhao Gao's eyes were red with rage, and the anger in his heart could no longer be suppressed.

Hu Hai said: "Zhao Qing is kind to me, I am aware of it, but as I said, I, Hu Hai, is the son of Da Qin, and I should put the affairs of Da Qin first."

"You should have heard what I just said in the court hall. The country of the Great Qin is not stable. The remnants of the Six Kingdoms, Confucianism and other forces still have thoughts about the life of the Great Qin. The Kanto has been wandering outside. A little careless, the remnants of the Six Kingdoms It is possible to plot restoration, and I, with Hu Hai's talents, can barely become the King of Qin, and I will not be able to become the emperor."

"Zhao Qing, why do you insist on forcing me?"

Hu Hai looked disappointed.

Zhao Gaodao: "Is that the minister is forcing the son? It is the son who is forcing the minister to death."

"Young Master, it's easy for you to give up now, but when you are targeted in various ways in the end, no one will stand up for you."

"Young master, you don't understand the importance of power."

"A man lives in heaven and earth, so he must not be powerless for a day."

"Why don't you understand this truth?"

"Without the power in your hands, what is the difference between you and the ordinary head of Guizhou, my lord? Who would respect you among those courtiers? Fear you? When the officials of the Shizong Zhengfu and the officials of the Shaofu secretly withheld the money and food of the young master, did you, young master?" The place is loud."

"My lord, you have a great life."

"I have never seen the darkness and difficulty of society."

"But I, Zhao Gao, are different. I, Zhao Gao, am from Zhao. When I entered the court, I climbed up from humble beginnings. I have seen too many filthy palaces, some of which are dark and even unspeakable, or even not at all. The young master can imagine it, and it is because of this that I, Zhao Gao, have been urging the young master to fight for the crown prince."

"What for?"

"The purpose is to save the young master from having to suffer so much in the future!"

"Young master, you are confused!"

Zhao Gao's face was full of resentment.

Hu Hai lowered his head, not daring to look up at all, but timidly said: "Then what should I do now? I have already refused on the spot, even if I go back on my word, I am afraid that the courtiers will not believe me, and Zhao Qing, you don't even know, The hidden story behind Li Chu, the situation in the court is about to change."

heard.

Zhao Gao was taken aback.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and asked suspiciously: "Your Majesty knows His Majesty's intention to establish a reserve?"

Hu Hai nodded, shook his head again, and said with a wry smile: "I don't really know it all, I just heard about it a little bit, and Zhao Qing, you may not know that after returning from South China Sea, I, Hu Hai, have no chance to win the position of the crown prince. gone."

"I was doing stepping stones for my big brother the whole time."

"If not, why would I give up so easily?"

"Why?" Zhao Gao kept asking, his eyes flickering.

Hu Hai hesitated to speak.

He didn't know whether to say these words or not.

But out of trust in Zhao Gao, I still decided to say something.

He said in a deep voice: "Father established the crown prince in order to pave the way for the crown prince, to issue some decrees in the court, to make some changes to the status quo of the world, and the reason for it was the attack and killing I encountered in the South China Sea. The reason for the time father to lure and not say it is for this follow-up."

"even."

"It may cause dissatisfaction among many courtiers."

"And I, Hu Hai, as the leader of this incident, cannot be recognized by the courtiers anyway. Therefore, from any point of view, I, Hu Hai, have no chance to become the crown prince. This court dispute is just a passing scene. The results will not have any impact at all.”

"Zhao Qing, you overestimate the influence of courtiers."

Hu Hai shook his head.

heard.

Zhao Gao calmed down instead.

He glanced at Hu Hai meaningfully, pondered for a while, and said in a concentrated voice: "According to what the young master said, His Majesty has actually decided in his heart that the crown prince will be the eldest son?"

"That's true." Hu Hai nodded, and said with a wry smile: "I received a letter of submission in the South China Sea, and I was attacked and killed again, which also led to the fact that I am not a so-called law-abiding person in the heart of my father. .”

"So when I told His Majesty about this, I was scolded by His Majesty."

"That's why."

"It was also from this time that the battle between me and my elder brother for the crown prince has completely shifted."

"Father therefore chose the elder brother."

"I don't know why this court meeting is to discuss and establish a crown prince, but I think my father must have a deep meaning, but I just can't figure it out."

Zhao Gao was thoughtful.

He said in a condensed voice: "In this way, your majesty has not gone to the court these few days. It may not be that he is in poor health, but he deliberately did not go to the court in order to create an atmosphere for establishing a reserve, and then make a decision on the establishment of the reserve. , so as to do the follow-up arrangement that the young master said earlier."

"It is indeed possible." Hu Hai thought for a while and agreed.

Zhao Gao glanced at Hu Hai suspiciously, and asked curiously, "Why did you know this, Young Master? Was it Ji Heng who told him?"

Hu Hai said: "Zhao Qing, don't you have such a big resentment towards Ji Heng, he won't be an official, these are just his judgments on the world situation."

"How can I feel uneasy about a commoner?" Zhao Gao snorted coldly, and said with disdain in his eyes: "I am just worried that you will be seduced by this person. This person is a remnant of the Six Kingdoms, and his intentions are not right. If you trust this person too much, sooner or later Something will happen."

"And this person obviously trusts the eldest son more."

"Young Master, you don't need to take this man too seriously."

"Ji Heng is not such a person." Hu Hai subconsciously defended Ji Heng.

Zhao Gao shook his head and said, "Young master, you are not deeply involved in the world, and you don't know the dangers of people's hearts, but I, Zhao Gao, have been struggling since I was a child, how can I not understand this?"

Hu Hai opened his mouth, but didn't speak again.

Zhao Gao frowned, pondered for a while, and suddenly said: "Since Your Majesty will make a decision later, can you use this matter for your sake, to help you gain attention in the court?"

"After all, the prince is just a prince."

"If it can be destroyed immediately!"
