Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 249 Freezing three feet is not a day's cold! (seeking subscription)

The next day.

Xiao He took the initiative to ask Fusu to see him.

After all, it was their own decision to follow Liu Ji, so they still had to seek Fusu's consent.

County government.

At this moment, the county government lobby has become Fusu's office, while the magistrate and magistrate of Lingling have gone to the side room next door.

in the lobby.

When Fusu heard that Xiao He asked for a meeting, he also showed a strange expression.

Normally speaking, even if there is a problem, it will not be so fast after his order is issued.

Although he was very puzzled, Fusu still met Xiao He.

burglary.

Xiao He looked solemn, cupped his hands and said, "Your Highness, Xiao He."

Fu Su smiled and said: "Xiao He, you came to me so suddenly today, is there something wrong?"

Xiao He nodded slightly, with a heavy expression on his face, and said with a bow: "Back to Your Highness, the reason why I suddenly asked to see you this time is because I have something to tell you, and I really don't dare to hide it from Your Highness. In fact, this is entirely my selfish intention. Please ask Your Highness to let me speak."

Fusu looked at Xiao He in surprise, with a hint of doubt in his eyes.

From the information he has seen, Xiao He has always been very strict and upright, and will hardly do anything improper or unrighteous. It is precisely because of this that Xiao He can stand out in the annual evaluation of the scheme and win the top spot. Right now Xiao He actually said that he had done some disgraceful things in private, which aroused Fusu's interest for a while.

Fu Su smiled and said: "Xiao He, but it's okay to say."

Xiao He said slowly: "Returning to Your Highness, I gained His Highness's trust and was able to enter the Office of Affairs. However, in the order of His Highness at that time, there was actually only one of you. However, I have a friend in Pei County who was in trouble at the time. At that time, I was in a hurry. However, he lied about the decree, saying that His Highness allowed the minister to bring one or two followers, so that Liu Ji could use his status as a follower to get away from the troubles in Pei County."

"However, this is ultimately my own decision."

"The minister is terrified."

"Before His Highness arrived at Lingling, I couldn't sleep all night, tossing and turning, fearing that I would be hated by His Highness, and even more worried that I would betray His Highness's trust. After His Highness came to Lingling County, I dared not come again. If there is any delay or hesitation, I just want to tell His Highness about it as soon as possible."

"Your Highness, please let me know."

Xiao He lowered his head, not daring to breathe too much.

He is very clear.

What I did was actually very serious.

This is tantamount to tampering!

Fu Su closed his eyes slightly, looked at Xiao He coldly, his eyes swept back and forth on Xiao He.

In the end, he decided to listen to Xiao He's reasons for doing this, and Fusu said, "I want to know more details."

Xiao He looked a little hesitant, and said with cupped hands: "Back to your highness, the name of the person I brought this time is Liu Ji. I am both from Pei County. He is now a pavilion chief, but in the past, he offended someone in the county because of his righteous speech. An official, this person is quite powerful in the county, and has secretly stirred up trouble for Liu Ji many times, and some time ago, this person asked Liu Ji to escort the prisoners to Lishan Mountain."

"Your Highness may not know something."

"The prisoners escorted by Pei County in recent years, although they are prisoners, most of them are gentle and kind heads of Guizhou."

"It's just because the people in the Kanto region don't understand the laws of Qin, they were convicted by the government and were eventually punished as prisoners. Over the years, there have been a lot of slander and curses against the imperial court in various parts of the Kanto region, and some aristocrats from the six countries have fueled the flames. The people in the Kanto region are full of distrust of the imperial court. As a result, the number of escaped prisoners in the Kanto region has remained high."

"My friend, if he is really responsible for this matter, he may also be held responsible for it."

"I couldn't bear it, so I took matters into my own hands."

"That's what it's all about."

"Your Highness, please convict me."

Xiao He didn't make too many excuses, but simply apologized.

heard.

Fusu's eyes narrowed slightly.

He also fell into hesitation at this time.

Normally speaking, Xiao He committed the crime of transgression.

This crime can be big or small.

It all depends on Fusu.

If he were to be accommodating to Xiao He, and others could learn from it and apply it, wouldn't his order become a joke?

It’s just that Xiao He was recruited by himself after all, and Xiao He is indeed a talented person. He still couldn’t bear it if he was left idle or accused of guilt. After hesitating for a while, Fusu finally decided to turn a blind eye and close his eyes. only eye.

Fu Su said: "I know about this matter."

"I have some understanding of the situation in Kanto. Compared with the smoky atmosphere, it is actually understandable for you to do such a thing to protect your friends."

“But one size fits the bill.”

"You are indeed at fault in this matter."

"Love can be tolerated, but law cannot be tolerated."

"This person cannot enter the Affairs Office, let alone interfere in any affairs, or even know the specific matters of the Affairs Office."

"It can only serve as your entourage."

heard.

Xiao He showed joy and said gratefully: "Thank you, Your Highness, for your kindness."

"My minister Xiao He is grateful."

He naturally understood the meaning of Fusu's words.

Fusu actually let it go, and didn't do too much investigation, but Liu Ji can no longer do things in the name of an official of the affairs government, or even participate in any political affairs. A follower brought over to increase knowledge.

That's it.

Xiao He was very satisfied with this result.

Before he asked to see Fusu, he had prepared for the worst.

It was him and Liu Ji who were held accountable together.

Or Liu Ji was driven back.

Now it's just that Liu Ji doesn't participate in the affairs of the affairs government, but he won't be punished by other means. From any point of view, this is acceptable.

Fusu snorted coldly and said, "Let's stop here."

"No more offenses."

Xiao He hurriedly said: "Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will never commit another crime."

Fusu nodded and said: "The Affairs Bureau is still in the initial stage, and the burdens on you are not light. We will deal with it properly when we go back later, communicate more with other officials, and finalize the retirement of the Nanhai Army non-commissioned officers as soon as possible."

Xiao He said: "I obey the order."

Fu Su waved his hand, indicating that Xiao He could step back.

Xiao He understood.

Also walked out quickly.

When Xiao He walked away, Fu Su's eyes were slightly cold.

He was actually somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao He's behavior, but after thinking about it, he decided to take it lightly.

After all, the First Emperor said it before.

As long as some things are not brought to the light, they should be treated as ignorance.

It's all about the big picture.

immediately.

Fu Su also frowned, and said in a concentrated voice: "Just now Xiao He said that the person he brought was framed by the county officials, so he had to make such a bad plan, but it can also be seen from this that the people of the Kanto Unfamiliarity with the laws and regulations of the Great Qin Dynasty, as well as the local misconduct, and at the same time, there are also a large number of local fugitives."

"This is the consequence of the failure of the head of Guizhou!"

Today it is today.

He gradually recalled some things about what Ji Heng said at the beginning.

I also deeply realize that some words are correct.

However, it is not a day's cold to freeze three feet.

Even if he wanted to solve it, he was really powerless.

Moreover, Daqin simply can't spare so much time and energy to win the hearts of the people in Kanto right now. Daqin has only one thing to do right now.

Solidarity! ! !

Other than that, everything else can be put on hold.

Fusu withdrew her mind and began to shift her attention to political affairs.

Xianyang.

The weather has gradually turned cooler.

It's just that Hu Hai seemed a little absent-minded.

Ji Heng saw Hu Hai's abnormality, but he didn't ask too much.

He didn't care about other people's affairs.

It's just that Ji Heng didn't pay attention to his thoughts. After struggling for a while, Hu Hai decided to tell Ji Heng about the matter. He looked around and said in a low voice: "Ji Heng, Zhao Gao has something strange recently. Today, Zhao Gao suddenly Look for me, tell me not to give up easily, and say that I will do my best to help me get to the top."

"even."

Hu Hai paused, and continued: "He also said that many officials in the DPRK actually trust me more."

heard.

Ji Heng nodded slightly and said calmly: "What do you think of this matter?"

Hu Hai smiled wryly, and said, "I don't have any ideas. Now that the elder brother has been established as the prince for the father, this also means that our other brothers have no chance to fight, and I will naturally not fight again."

"And I don't like to deal with things. If the affairs of the whole country are entrusted to me, how can I handle it?"

Hu Hai is very self-aware.

He is actually a very lazy person, and sometimes he does have a three-point enthusiasm, but it is really torture to let him deal with the memorials day after day, year after year. Hu Hai thought he could not persist, so Shihuang established Chu Jun, it can be regarded as freeing Hu Hai.

this time.

He has been staying with Ji Heng.

Also enjoyed a rare quiet time.

He even enjoyed it.

He never thought of becoming the crown prince again.

It's just that he didn't expect Zhao Gao to be so courageous, knowing that the crown prince was established, he would still try to struggle and change the current situation, and when he heard the news, Hu Hai also showed a look of horror.

He even felt strange to Zhao Gao.

Now Zhao Gao seems to be a little paranoid, too persistent to let himself fight for the reserve.

Ji Heng smiled and said: "Although you don't mean it, others do. Fusu is indeed not welcome in the court now. Some of Fusu's past behaviors are actually contrary to the courtiers' thinking, so it is very difficult It is easy to cause dissatisfaction among the courtiers, so it is logical for someone to cooperate with Zhao Gao."

heard.

Hu Hai looked at Ji Heng suspiciously, and asked in doubt, "Are you so calm?"

"I've been running towards you recently, and many people in the court may have discovered it. Don't you worry that someone will target you?"

Ji Heng chuckled lightly, and said indifferently: "Why worry? What if you don't worry? The right to determine the matter is not in my hands, and although I live in a place that is not prosperous, there are many attendants and guards. If you want to target me, you may have to weigh the consequences."

"Especially Fusu is still the crown prince at the moment!"

Hu Hai shook his head.

He said: "It seems that more and more officials in the court are dissatisfied with the elder brother. I am worried that something will happen in the future."

Ji Heng sneered, shook his head and said: "You think too highly of the officials in the court. They are indeed capable and smart, but sometimes when there are too many smart people, many things cannot be done well. These people have too many thoughts. It’s too complex, and even if it’s barely put together, it’s destined to be short-lived.”

"and"

There was a strange look in Ji Heng's eyes.

He teased: "This scene is not necessarily a bad thing."

"Even a good thing."

Hearing Ji Heng's words, Hu Hai frowned even tighter.

He didn't understand.

But he didn't rush to ask.

Instead, he thought about it independently. After thinking for a while, he gradually thought of something. He suddenly looked at Ji Heng, thinking about Fusu's past actions, and said in surprise: "You actually expected this situation a long time ago." , and even the suggestion you gave to eldest brother at the beginning was actually to make it like this on purpose."

heard.

There was a look of surprise in Ji Heng's eyes.

He didn't expect that Hu Hai realized it.

Hu Hai was right.

This is actually expected.

It's just that he didn't expect Zhao Gao to take the lead.

But if you think about it, it is indeed reasonable, Zhao Gao is a person who is unwilling to be silent, especially in the past, he has tasted the taste of power, but Zhao Gao has not figured out his identity, the power he enjoyed in the past did not come from him It is from the first emperor himself, but Zhao Gao obviously didn't realize it.

After being deprived of power, Zhao Gao became somewhat possessed.

He wanted to regain power.

It's just that the way of pleasing the first emperor as in the past is no longer feasible, so Zhao Gao can only retreat and try to push Hu Hai to a high position, so that he can make a comeback.

Desires are hard to fill.

Ji Heng smiled and said nothing.

He didn't explain too much.

Some things don't need to be said too clearly, once they are explained, it is easy to cause problems.

see.

Hu Hai didn't ask any more questions.

He knew that if he could tell himself, Ji Heng would not hide his secrets.

Therefore, it is only possible that they cannot tell themselves.

Think of this.

Hu Hai sighed softly in his heart.

During this period of time, Zhao Gao walked around and lobbied courtiers everywhere, but he didn't know that all of this was in Ji Heng's calculations, and in the end it was very likely that the gains outweighed the losses, and he might even involve himself in it.

After all, he and Zhao Gao were a teacher and a student, and he still thought of his kindness in his heart.

It's just that he is very self-aware and knows his own abilities. He may not even be able to handle some basic trivial matters well. If he gets involved in these intrigues, he might end up dying without knowing how to die. He really doesn't want to get involved Intend.

Moreover, Zhao Gao's self-assertion again and again made Hu Hai feel a little annoyed.

Because Zhao Gao played his name.

If the emperor knew about this matter, he might be angered even more.

Thinking of this.

He was extremely depressed.

He has already hid here with Ji Heng, so he can't stay out of it?

What made Hu Hai even more speechless was that those courtiers really believed Zhao Gao's one-sided words.

Now it put him on fire instead.

Ji Heng saw the depression on Hu Hai's face, he chuckled lightly, pretending he didn't see it, and lay leisurely on the chair, looking up at the blue sky, enjoying the beautiful sunshine.

Hu Hai turned his head to look at Ji Heng for a few times, hesitated to speak, and finally did not speak.

Because everything is in Ji Heng's plan.

It's hard for him to really change.

It's just that I was inexplicably involved, and I really can't feel better.

The wind rustled under the tree.

Ji Heng shook his fan, Hu Hai sighed.
