Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 240 There is someone behind Fusu, this person is called Mr. Zhong! (seeking subscription)

Xianyang.

Hu Wujing's house.

The current Hu Mansion has long lost its former glory.

No one is there.

Hu Wujing sat slumped in the courtyard, staring at the leaves in front of the courtyard with blank eyes.

He has stepped back.

But even so, the heart is still suffering.

At the age of 50 or [-], this is the time when he is the most vigorous, and it is also when he shows his talents, but his head has already turned white, and his whole body is extremely vicissitudes.

He was filled with resentment for everything that had happened to him.

He was originally a good man, but now he has not only lost his official position, but also offended officials big and small in the court. Even if he wants to recover in the future, he may not have any chance, which makes Hu Wujing feel aggrieved and uncomfortable.

Even after several days, it still hasn't adjusted.

aside.

Hu Xian waited on him respectfully.

He was also deeply disturbed by his father's haggardness, but as a son of man, he really didn't know how to comfort him.

I can only wait quietly on the sidelines.

a long time.

Hu Wujing turned his head, looked at Hu Xian beside him, and said, "You must have been under a lot of pressure in the government office some time ago."

Hu Xian nodded, then shook his head again.

Hu Wujing gritted his teeth and said: "It's really a shame, when I was in the court, how dare those people treat you like this? And once I step back from the court, these people will no longer restrain themselves, it is really unreasonable."

Hu Wujing's eyes were full of resentment.

But there was nothing he could do about the affairs of the imperial court.

He is afraid to go out now.

What happened this time was a devastating blow to him, and even the entire Hu family. Dozens of people in the Hu family basically stayed at home during this period, not daring to go out. Once you go out, you will be pointed out by others.

At this time.

A Lichen came to report.

CRRC Mansion ordered Zhao Gao to ask for an interview outside the door.

heard.

Hu Wujing's face turned cold, and a look of anger appeared in his eyes. He has indeed lost power, but he still can't allow an eunuch to bully him.

Hu Xian also looked puzzled and said, "Zhao Gao?"

"What is he doing here?"

"What else can you do? Naturally, you came to laugh at me." Hu Wujing looked indifferent, but still suppressed his anger and asked someone to bring Zhao Gao in.

Soon.

Zhao Gao came to the courtyard.

Seeing Hu Wujing's gray head, his expression was extremely haggard, Zhao Gao also sneered in his heart, once upon a time, Hu Wujing was ranked among the nine ministers, and he was very prominent in the court, but what about now?Under Fusu's deliberate calculations, his reputation was notoriously ruined.

Extremely miserable.

But he didn't show it.

And he also knew that he was not much different from Hu Wujing. When he was in glory, he could hold his head high even when he saw Li Si and others, but now he would nod and bow when he saw a courtier.

Zhao Gao respectfully said: "Zhao Gao has met Feng Chang."

Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Hu Wujing frowned and snorted coldly: "Zhao Gao, even you want to mock me?"

Zhao Gao said with a look of surprise: "Why did Feng Chang say that? I, Zhao Gao, have always respected Feng Chang very much. How dare I be disrespectful?"

For Zhao Gao's words, Hu Wujing didn't take it seriously, even found it harsh.

Hu Xian said from the side: "my father has retired from the court, and now he is just a white body. It is really inappropriate for the CRRC mansion to call him Feng Chang. If the officials of the court know about it, they will not only provoke my father Trouble, I'm afraid it will cause you a lot of trouble."

"I also ask the order of Zhao Zhongche's government to speak carefully."

heard.

Zhao Gao shook his head.

He said solemnly: "Feng Chang has indeed stepped down from the court, but I, Zhao Gao, really don't mean to ridicule at all. If Feng Chang is dissatisfied, Zhao Gao apologizes."

After saying that, Zhao Gaozhen bowed down and apologized.

see.

Hu Wujing's complexion softened a little, although he was still a little gloomy, but somewhat relaxed, but he looked at Zhao Gao full of doubts, he has retired from the court now, and he has no official position, and this time The incident dealt a great blow to him, fearing that no one in the court would speak up for it, and basically declared the end of his political life.

It is impossible for Zhao Gao not to know this, so why did he come to him.

Hu Wujing stared straight at Zhao Gao, and said coldly: "What do you want to do when you come to my house this time?"

Zhao Gao smiled, with a cold look in his eyes.

He said coldly: "Feng Chang, do you want to know who is plotting against you behind your back?"

Hu Wujing frowned, and said with a sneer: "Who is plotting against me, I don't think you need to tell me. Basically, no one in the Manchu court knows?"

"It's our Highness."

immediately.

Hu Wujing didn't dare to make a fuss, and added: "But this is all my own fault, if I didn't have some thoughts that I shouldn't have, I wouldn't have fallen to the current situation."

Zhao Gao laughed loudly, and said resolutely, "Feng Chang, you are wrong."

"It's not His Highness who plotted against you."

"It's someone else."

"Who?" Hu Wujing's eyes sank.

Zhao Gao didn't directly mention Ji Heng's name, but said calmly: "Feng Chang, you can actually think about it carefully, has your Highness changed too much in the past half a year? Under normal circumstances, everyone can make such a quick change. ? And Feng Chang should also know what His Highness looked like in the past."

"It's just a benevolent person who is full of benevolence and morality."

"But now?"

"He has become a scheming, calculating and scheming person. With such a big change, doesn't Feng Chang have any doubts in his heart?"

Hearing Zhao Gao's words, Hu Wujing fell silent.

Naturally, he was aware of Fusu's changes, but he didn't have much contact with Fusu, so he wasn't sure if this was a recent change in Fusu, or just a faking in the past.

Hu Wujing said in a concentrated voice: "According to what you said, is someone behind His Highness secretly guiding?"

Zhao Gao nodded with certainty.

Zhao Gaoyin smiled pitifully, and continued: "As an important minister of the court, you have made great contributions to the establishment of the Great Qin. Who knows this? Even though Feng Chang has worked so hard and made great achievements, you are still calculated to be extremely miserable , and all of this is actually inevitable.”

"Because that person doesn't want to see the important officials of the empire."

"There is even resentment!"

"What do you mean by that?" Hu Wujing froze.

Zhao Gao sneered and said: "This person is a remnant of the Six Kingdoms, now Feng Chang knows why he was targeted like this, right? And now he also knows why His Highness did not choose Chao Zhonglang this time, and he has criticized all kinds of officials before. You've been slandered."

"Because His Highness was bewitched."

"How did you know?" Hu Wujing was still a little unsure.

Zhao Gao chuckled lightly, a look of resentment flashed in his eyes, and said in a cold voice: "Because this person is very close to Mr. Hu Hai, during this time Mr. Hu Hai is even more reluctant to make progress, and ran to this man all day long. You mess around, completely forgetting your identity."

"And as Mr. Hu Hai's foreign teacher, I also won the trust of Mr. Hu Hai in the past, so Mr. Hu Hai also told me about this matter."

Hu Wujing's eyes moved slightly.

He still couldn't believe it.

Zhao Gao also knew that it would be difficult to convince Hu Wujing, but he had his own way, Zhao Gao smiled and said, "Can Feng Chang still remember the things His Highness was in charge of before?"

"Guan Shanhai?" Hu Xian seemed to have thought of something, and subconsciously blurted out.

Zhao Gao glanced at Hu Xian, with a hint of approval in his eyes, and said with a smile, "And if Feng Chang had paid attention to the 'Guan Shan Hai' policy last time, he should know that someone else was actually responsible."

"Which Mr. Zhong?" Hu Xian asked uncertainly.

"Mr. Zhong?" Zhao Gao muttered a few words, but still nodded, and said, "It is this Mr. Zhong, and this person is the culprit for His Highness's changes. What this person says is regarded as the standard, and he will do exactly what he says."

"This person is from the remnants of the Six Kingdoms."

"How can he have a good impression of the courtiers of the empire?"

"He is afraid that the empire will decline as soon as possible, so this person has been trying to destroy the empire from the inside with the help of His Highness's trust. I, Zhao Gao, have been keenly aware of this, and I can't bear to see Fengchang fall into such a difficult situation. , so I took the risk and told Fengchang about it."

Hu Wujing's eyes were cold.

He didn't respond to Zhao Gao's words, but turned around and asked Hu Xian. About this 'Mr. Zhong', he knew very little about these things, and he didn't even ask.

After learning something from Hu Xian, Hu Wujing's eyes immediately changed.

Become very indifferent and tyrannical.

But soon, Hu Wujing calmed down.

He looked at Zhao Gao coldly, and said with a half smile but not a smile: "Zhao Gao, what is your plan for telling me these things? You should know my situation. Even if you tell me about this, I can't do anything."

Zhao Gao nodded.

He said: "Feng Chang is indeed stepping back now, but is Feng Chang really willing?"

"So what if you are willing? What if you are not willing? Do you think that I, Hu Wujing, still have a chance to stand up? As long as His Highness is still here, I, Hu Wujing, will not have this chance." Hu Wujing said.

He is naturally not reconciled.

But no matter how unwilling it is, it cannot change the status quo.

In particular, he was still targeted by Fusu, and Fusu was the heir of the Great Qin Dynasty, which also meant that from the day he retired, he had no chance to stand up.

No one dared to help himself.

Zhao Gao didn't comment on this, and said slowly: "I, Zhao Gao, know Fengchang's current situation."

"And why is my situation different from Fengchang's? I used to be trusted by His Majesty, but now, although I hold the official position of the CRRC Mansion Order, the power has already fallen into the hands of others. In the palace, dare to treat me There are too many eunuchs shouting five and six."

"How can I, Zhao Gao, be so willing?"

"but."

Zhao Gao paused for a moment, and then continued: "Feng Chang seems to have overlooked one thing. There is actually only one reason why Feng Chang has fallen into the current situation."

"It offended His Highness."

"And His Highness is the crown prince recognized by His Majesty, so Feng Chang is disheartened."

"But what if Fusu is no longer the crown prince?"

The words fall.

Hu Xian's face changed slightly.

Regardless of his surroundings, he quickly walked to the door, looked around the door for a while, and made sure that there were no servants and servants around, and then quickly closed the door.

Hu Wujing's complexion changed slightly.

Just different from the previous reaction, Hu Wujing was silent at this time.

Zhao Gao was right.

All his encounters originated from Fusu.

The reason why he has no room to resist, and even dare not give birth to any resistance, is precisely because of Fusu's status as the crown prince.

But what if Fusu is no longer the crown prince?
If he committed a crime this time, I'm afraid it's not a problem.

Hu Wujing's eyes flickered.

He fell into a long hesitation.

a long time.

Hu Wujing raised his head, pretended not to understand, and asked knowingly: "I don't understand what you mean by that."

Zhao Gao didn't hide any more, and said directly: "We are all frustrated, but Fusu would rather believe in the remnants of the Six Kingdoms than me and other veterans who followed the establishment of the empire. Are you so willing? And Mr. Hu Hai You should have heard about his performance in the South China Sea before."

"Young Master Hu Hai, I watched him grow up."

"Mr. Huhai is also familiar with laws and regulations, and he is even more proficient in Qin law. Compared with Mr. Fusu's apostasy, I think Mr. Huhai is more suitable for the heir apparent than Mr. Fusu."

"and"

"The time Fengchang left for you is really running out."

"Now Fengchang has been deposed from his official position in the court, and Fengchang may not know that the second son and other sons have not been idle for a while, and have been cooperating with officials from the Character Survey Office to compile new literacy textbooks. We will use our "Bo Xue Pian" and "Yan Li Pian", and all the written characters will be changed to official script."

"This is equivalent to erasing Fengchang's achievements from all aspects."

"I, Zhao Gao, am just an eunuch, and I don't value these reputations, but Fengchang is a man of great talent, and he was famous for a while. If it ends in such a miserable way, will Fengchang really be reconciled?"

Hu Wujing was silent.

willing?

How could he be willing?

And he knew what Zhao Gao said.

He had been quite resentful before, but Fusu firmly insisted that he didn't dare to offend, but if the world really changed Qin Zhuan to clerical script in the future, then Hu Wujing would really disappear in the world.

After a hundred years, who still remembers Hu Wujing?

Life is nothing more than fame and fortune.

He also cannot escape.

What's more, the Qin Zhuan script is the font set by the first emperor, how can it be changed so easily?And his "Bo Xue Pian" was hand-picked by His Majesty as the model of the world's knowledge dictionary, how could it be tampered with like this?
And
He was not willing to lose power like this.

Seeing a bloodshot flash in Hu Wujing's eyes, Zhao Gao felt complacent, he knew that Hu Wujing was still tempted after all, and he couldn't tolerate Hu Wujing not being tempted, who can really give up the temptation of power?
Fame and wealth are what life seeks.

Hu Wujing's eyes were cloudy and he said: "I don't think there is a problem with His Royal Highness Fusu being the crown prince."

Zhao Gao smiled and said: "It's natural. His Highness Fusu was appointed by His Majesty, so there is no problem. The problem is only the 'Mr. Zhong' who is behind His Highness's orders from the beginning to the end. As long as this 'Mr. Sir, if you clean it up, the court will be restored to peace, and the world will be on the right path.”

"It's just that His Highness may be affected on the way."

"But that's all."

heard.

Hu Wujing and Zhao Gao looked at each other and laughed heartily.

"good!!!"

　I can't stay up late, I can't bear it.
