Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 284 Zhao Gao’s sincere words! (Please subscribe)

boom!
Yan Le kicked out the bloody tea bowl and cursed: "Bad luck."

He sat on the table, tapping his fingertips on the table, and carefully considered Xu She's suggestion in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more feasible it became, and he finally couldn't help but applaud and praise it.

"good."

"This suggestion is okay."

"Not only could I avenge Ji Heng's humiliation that day, I also went to arrest Ji Heng legitimately and legally. Even if Fusu knew about it, there was nothing he could do to me. I, Yan Le, also followed the law. What could he really do to me? "

"Once caught and thrown into jail."

"Then you can just let me control you?"

"Haha."

Yan Le couldn't help laughing.

Some time ago, he went to test Ji Heng. He still remembered Ji Heng's attitude towards him, but Ji Heng didn't take him seriously, and he didn't even take him as the Xianyang Order seriously. Yan Le felt sad in his heart. Always holding in a fire.

Not to mention, he was blackmailed by Ji Heng for more than a dozen Qin Banliang.

Although the amount of money is not much.

But who is he?

He is the son-in-law of Zhao Gao, a close minister of Prince Hu Hai, and the dignified Xianyang Order of the Qin Dynasty. He was actually insulted by a remnant of the Six Kingdoms and asked for money. This was undoubtedly a slap in the face in public. How could the always arrogant Yan Le not do this? Can you swallow this bad breath?
Before, Ji Heng protected Fusu and he couldn't find any reason or excuse, but it's different now.

Yan Le sneered, with a very indifferent expression, and said sarcastically: "Ji Heng, Ji Heng, when you touched me so lightly last time, did you ever think that one day you would fall into my hands? I, Yan Le, have always been He is not an easy person to deal with. When you get to prison, I will have a hundred ways to make you confess and make you regret!"

"I want to make your life worse than death!!!"

"Humph!"

Although Yan Le's mouth was full of joy, he still kept calm in his heart.

And he knows his status.

It is absolutely impossible for him to dare to plan such a big thing with the Xianyang Order. He does not have such great power and ability, and it is impossible to persuade the courtiers. After thinking about it, he decided to first Tell Zhao Gao about this and let him make a decision.

He did not dare to disobey his uncle.

If he had angered his uncle and made him dissatisfied because of his private behavior, he didn't even dare to think about what kind of misery he would encounter. Moreover, without his uncle opening his mouth, Yan Le would not be able to see those courtiers at all. , let alone talk about it, it’s completely idiotic.

Xianyang is where hundreds of officials gather.

His official position was too low for the Xianyang Order, who was older than him.

Fart fights are not considered a thing in Xianyang.

The reason why he was received by these courtiers in the past was that he never reported his identity. Basically, he reported his identity to Zhao Gao, which is actually equivalent to reporting his identity to Hu Hai.

at this point.

Yan Le knew it well.

He took out a piece of wood from under the case, grinded it himself, picked up a rabbit-hair pen, and began to write. He would not dare to leave such a big matter to others. If it were leaked to others, even if he had ten heads, he would probably be killed. Not enough to cut with a knife or an ax.

A flourish of ink.

Yan Le completed this special secret letter.

He put the stick on the fire and roasted it. After the ink on it was completely dry, he blew it carefully. Looking at the vigorous and powerful writing on it, Yan Le felt quite proud of himself.

The reason why he became Zhao Gao's son-in-law was that he was good at writing and writing.

When everything was done, he took out another piece of wood from under the case to 'check' it, and covered the 'letter' he had written. Just in case, he put another piece of wood under the 'letter', and then Only then tied with rope.

Then a layer of special sealing mud is applied to the knotted area, and a seal is stamped on the mud surface.

After the "sealing" was completed, Yan Le put the letter in his sleeve and went out to mail the letter.

Chen County.

The First Emperor's cavalry left Hangu Pass in the east and passed through the land outside the river all the way south. They did not stop in the prosperous Sanchuan County, but went directly to Chen County according to the established route. The cavalry was still on the road, preparing to Pass through Chenjun, cross the Huaihe River, and reach Yunmengze.

at this time.

It was noon.

The weather is still a little cold.

Zhao Gao was gathered in front of a car and kept persuading him.

The person sitting in Jin's car was Hu Hai.

Listening to Zhao Gao's constant persuasion, Hu Hai only felt a little headache. Ever since he followed the First Emperor's patrol convoy, Zhao Gao had been persuading him to please his Majesty more, get closer to other courtiers, and show more of his politics. Opinions, especially on the concept of governing the country, must know how to submit to His Majesty's favor, and also speak ill of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and Confucian scholars.

But Hu Hai looked very resistant.

When he came out this time, his original intention was to travel around.

I didn't want to interfere in political affairs.

He has long recognized the reality. He does not have the ability, let alone the material. To do this forcefully will only do bad things. Moreover, the eldest brother has already positioned his father as the heir apparent. The battle for the heir apparent has long been settled. Now he will show off. , what kind of decency is this?

If it causes the dissatisfaction of the father and the eldest brother, wouldn't it be asking for trouble?
He really didn't want to go through this muddy water again.

It's just that when he was in Xianyang before, he was in the palace after all. If he couldn't do it, he could still run to Ji Heng's side, but now he was in the convoy, but he couldn't avoid it, which made Hu Hai feel sad.

And he was really impatient.

In the past few months, if Zhao Gao hadn't forced him, he wouldn't have wanted to go out at all. However, he thought that if he did as Zhao Gao said, Zhao Gao would be able to calm down a little. Unexpectedly, Zhao Gao seemed to be getting more serious and treating himself more harshly. There are more demands.

This made Hu Hai also deeply depressed.

Zhao Gao looked solemn and said tirelessly: "Master, I know that the master is dissatisfied and even intends to escape, but the master is a born nobleman, and there are some things that cannot be escaped. I am sincere to the master. Is it possible, master?" Do you think I will harm the young master?"

"Since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, His Majesty has visited the world four times."

"This is the fifth time now."

"And this time His Majesty's purpose is obviously different from the past. In the past, His Majesty's tours around the world were mainly for patrolling the borders, intimidating the restoration and supervising actual government affairs. But this time His Majesty's purpose is different. From the past to intimidate the restoration, it has changed to Suppression and restoration, with the long-term goal of purging internal affairs, emphasized New Deal propaganda."

"As far as I'm concerned."

"This is a blatant declaration of war against the remnants of the Six Nations."

"But the world is currently in panic because of the celestial phenomena, and the courtiers have many objections to many political affairs. As the son of His Majesty, the Young Master should step forward at this time and help His Majesty solve his problems. How can I continue to sit back and watch?"

"And there aren't many things I asked you to do."

"I'm just saying a few words to please Your Majesty. What's the difficulty in that?"

"However, for the young master, it has many benefits. Not only does it please His Majesty and win His Majesty's favor, but more importantly, the Young Master is on His Majesty's side. This is more important than anything else."

"in addition."

"It's not that I insist on forcing the young master."

"Young master actually knows that your majesty's body is not completely healthy. In the past, he relied on taking medicinal stones to boost his spirits. Now, although the medicinal stones are no longer used and he is using other medicines to recuperate, his majesty has not changed his living habits. He reviews the memorials every day. The total amount is at least one hundred stones. No matter how strong your Majesty is, he cannot withstand such a high-intensity review of memorials."

"The reason why I suggested that the young master help your majesty handle some political affairs."

"Not only for the sake of the young master, but also for the sake of your majesty. If the young master starts to assist your majesty in handling political affairs, firstly, it can help your majesty solve problems. Secondly, it can ease your majesty's heart and make your majesty feel much more relaxed." "This is not the best, sir." A little bit of filial piety.”

"I do have some private thoughts, but most of all I care about my family and country."

"I really can't bear your Majesty to work so hard anymore."

heard.

There was a trace of struggle in Hu Hai's eyes.

He has persuaded Zhao Gao.

It is true that he no longer has the desire to fight, but as the son of the First Emperor, he has always been full of admiration for the First Emperor, and as a son of a man, he saw his father sleeping and eating late at night, but he stood aside and watched. This is unacceptable in any case. It should.

finally.

Hu Hai still relaxed.

He said softly: "Thank you, Zhao Qing, for reminding me. I have indeed been a little negligent. My father is tired of traveling and traveling, and he has to deal with surrounding political affairs day and night. It is indeed too hard. My father's body may not be able to withstand such wear and tear. As a human being, I Son, you should share some of your burdens for your father."

"only."

Hu Hai looked a little hesitant and said hesitantly: "Although I have been accompanied by my father on patrol, my father has never let me handle political affairs. If I rashly raise it to my father now, I may cause my father's dissatisfaction."

Hearing that Hu Hai finally relented, Zhao Gao couldn't help but be overjoyed and said quickly: "Young Master, please don't worry. The reason why I came to persuade you is precisely because some courtiers are grateful for your majesty's hard work and want you to come forward to persuade your majesty. Now that you are interested, I Go tell the other courtiers about this, and they will give advice to His Majesty."

"That's it." Hu Hai groaned, and finally nodded: "I'll let you do it."

"I obey." Zhao Gao couldn't hide his excitement.

The car creaked forward.

Zhao Gao stood there and watched the car drive away.

a long time.

He straightened up.

Zhao Gao raised his hand and wiped his forehead with his sleeve. Although the weather was cold, a lot of sweat had already overflowed from his forehead. However, Zhao Gao didn't pay attention to the sweat-soaked sleeve at all, and looked very proud.

He sneered: "Master Hu Hai, you have indeed grown up."

"If it were before, I wouldn't have to waste so much words, but I watched you grow up. How could I not know what your character is? How could I, Zhao Gao, miss such a good opportunity now?"

"You're still too young after all."

"But if you hadn't been so grateful to His Majesty, it might not have been that easy for me to persuade you this time."

talking.

Zhao Gao raised his head and looked toward the sky.

He said coldly: "Ji Heng, your ability to confuse people is really great. Not only did you fool Fusu around, but you also made Hu Hai trust you. The more than ten years we have spent together, I can't even compare to you." Two years of acquaintance?”

"Ha ha."

"But so what?"

"If you have never entered an official career, how can you know the charm of power? How can you know the pleasure of mastering power? Hu Hai was indeed bewitched by you before, but you can deceive him for a while, and deceive him for a lifetime?"

"He'll wake up eventually."

"Until then"

"You will be completely regarded as an enemy by Hu Hai!!!"

Zhao Gao sneered.

Although Hu Hai is still wary of him now, the tour this time is still long. He has plenty of time to win back Hu Hai's trust, and during this time, he will continue to make Hu Hai feel the charm of power.

He believed.

No one can resist the temptation of power.

nobody! ! !
Even a physically challenged person like him couldn't resist, let alone Hu Hai, who had a chance to ascend to the throne?
Zhao Gao withdrew his gaze.

Looking at the ruts on the ground, he walked towards another cart.

He has not been idle these days. He has been moving around secretly. He has communicated with many ministers and has already discussed it. They will wait a few days on the grounds that they are worried about His Majesty's health and to avoid having His Majesty on patrol. He showed signs of fatigue on the way, so he will give a message to His Majesty, begging Your Majesty to hand over some political affairs to the accompanying officials.

Normally speaking, even if political affairs are decentralized, they should be handled by the prime minister.

But this time there was also Hu Hai accompanying him.

Hu Hai is the son of Da Qin.

Zhao Gao has been out and about a lot in the past year and has won over many courtiers. These people are also happy to see Hu Hai's status in the heart of the First Emperor continue to improve, so they are also willing to give Hu Hai a hand.

At that time, the courtiers jointly submitted a letter requesting Hu Hai to help handle political affairs, which may not be possible.

A quarter of an hour later.

Zhao Gao stepped out of the car with satisfaction.

He had gotten the result he wanted, and he couldn't help but feel very happy.

Every step creates wind.

However, Zhao Gao also knew very well that the biggest obstacle to whether his plan could finally come true was Prime Minister Li Si. He had always been very afraid of Li Si. He was very scheming and good at maneuvering. More importantly, he Yes, Li Si's desire for power is only stronger than his own.

Li Si may not relent.

But Zhao Gao was not too worried.

Because he is still the official CRRC official.

The petty officials who drive these chariots still have to obey his orders. After all, Li Si is over seventy years old. How can his body withstand too many bumps and tosses?

Li Siruo didn't let go.

He had plenty of ways to make Li Si relent.

There are some good sayings in the countryside that county magistrates are not as good as current officials. He, the official of the Chefufu, is actually a big official, but he also has a little power on the patrol road.

He doesn't mind a little indulgence of power.

after all
The reins of the carriage were in his hands.

As long as the method is appropriate and subtle, who can detect it?
Zhao Gao looked at the Zhen car that was still moving steadily in front, and a smile slowly appeared on the corner of his mouth.

It's just that the smile is cold.

The convoy continued to move forward for two hours.

Ying Zheng finally ordered the camp to be set up, and Chenjun became the first camp for the convoy.

at this time.

The place where the riders stopped was Yangxia County, Chen County.

Not long after the rider stopped, a secret letter with a mud seal was delivered to Zhao Gao.
