My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!
Chapter 550: A new trend
Chapter 550 A New Wind (2 updates! Ten thousand words)
It was already Xu Shi and it was about to be Hai Shi.
Half of the moon hung high in the sky above Xianyang.
Li Si sat in the carriage, his face as dark as iron.
This Liu Ji, he actually educated me openly.
Although he was the sword that the prince was looking for, he actually dared to openly insult the dignitary, one of the nine ministers.
That's too arrogant.
Li Si, who was sitting in the copper carriage, couldn't help but beat the carriage heavily when he thought of the scene today where Liu Ji educated him regardless of the occasion.
The driver was so frightened that he stopped immediately.
"Tingwei——"
"Drive well. I'm fine."
On the same road, Liu Ji and Xiao He soon came out of the palace together.
The officials in the Crown Prince's palace were naturally equipped with vehicles to see them off. Liu Ji was the one who drove Xiao He.
After sending Xiao He to the door, Liu Ji was invited in by Xiao He's wife for dinner. After finishing the meal, Liu Ji started picking his teeth on the table, unwilling to leave anyway.
"I think I did something I shouldn't have done today."
Xiao He asked the servant to leave and said with a dark face, "You still have the nerve to say that. Why do you talk like that? No matter how messy you are on weekdays, you will never say that kind of thing on a big occasion. You almost gave the prince a hard time. Do."
Xiao He kept tapping on the table.
"Don't you realize that we are quite out of place in Xianyang City?"
"So what. I thought about it carefully on the way here. The prince has the King of Qin above him. The prince wants to promote good culture and education, so that the people can just obey orders and perform their duties."
"But the King of Qin believed that the people could only be driven by oppression, but could not make them knowledgeable and thoughtful. In fact, the King of Qin did not admit that the people had knowledge and thoughts."
"The prince has been a talented person since he was a child. He began to simplify writing when he was eight years old. Since then, it has been rumored that the prince of Qin was making paper. In the past few years, he has been trying his best to reform."
"What he did in Yingchuan County was simply what people wanted. When he got to the battlefield, he won every battle, and he only thought about reforming the military merit system."
"For such a person, his first half of life has been brilliant enough. So do you think he will be happy when he comes to the King of Qin?"
Xiao He looked at Liu Ji and said, "Don't talk about unfounded things. Besides, what does this have to do with you openly mocking Tingwei?"
Liu Ji squatted on the stool, patted the dining table and said, "Why doesn't it matter? I just know that there is a reason for this, so I want to talk about this Li Si. Look at how he talks to the prince on weekdays."
"If it's not true, it's Han Fei's training. Then he was the one who killed Han Fei. How can you say that such a person doesn't have a dark heart? I just kept looking at him, and the prince actually didn't like him in his heart."
Xiao He shook his head, "Then you shouldn't say that. You let the prince offend Li Si."
"No, no, no - Xiao Sheren, you were wrong this time. The prince we are following is not that simple at all. He is usually not showy, but when he met Li Si today, he was very capable of dealing with him. "
"Tell me, why did the prince have a dream and rush to Pei County to find us. This means that the prince is anxious! There is no one around him to help him."
"But since I met the prince, I have discovered that this is not the case. There are many talented people around the prince. But have you noticed that these people have a big problem?"
"What's the problem?" Xiao He lowered his head, and three horizontal lines appeared on his forehead.
He was actually not used to participating in these intrigues.
All day long you plot against me, and I plot against you.
If a country's three ministers and ministers spend their energy on intrigues, where will they find the energy to take care of the people?
"They are cowards! They fear King Qin more than the prince! They fear King Qin even more!"
"So whatever the prince wants to do, he can't find help. No one can help him speak in the court."
Xiao He started drinking unknowingly, "So?"
"So, someone needs to be the person to stand in for the prince and fight against the King of Qin."
"You are confused." Xiao He poured wine for Liu Ji.
Liu Ji grabbed Xiao He's hand and said, "You and I should not pretend to be stupid at this time. The prince is most kind to you. You shouldn't be planning to pretend to be stupid at this time."
"Liu Ji!" Xiao He rarely became serious, "Can you speak through your head first?"
Liu Ji sat down and said, "What's the hurry? I'm not talking harshly, I'm talking to your heart."
Xiao He's face twitched.
Liu Ji rolled up his sleeves and squatted on the bench. "Think about it, how would the prince react to today's incident?"
"I want you to apologize."
"This is a big deal! The more I think about it, the more something is wrong. The prince we are following is not that simple."
"Aren't you talking nonsense? You became a prince at the age of eight, and you are already a man among men." Xiao He said.
"On my way back, I had another thought. This prince, he was cold-blooded a lot. The prince of Yan State scolded him for doing carpentry, so he killed him. The soldiers of Chu State ran to Changge , the prince of Qin gave an order to kill them all."
"For such a person, if I really did something wrong, he would be more eager to punish me than anyone else. But he only asked me to apologize to Wei Ting. In that case, how could Wei Wei punish me."
"So you suspect that the prince wants you to be his sword to help him fight against his father, the king?"
Liu Ji nodded, "I asked, why did he fall in love with me? Firstly, I am not proficient in Qin's laws, secondly, I am not the person of his dreams, and thirdly, I am rude and immodest. He is a dignified prince, pampered, elegant and quiet, and there is nothing like him." He is someone who will like me."
"But the single greatest advantage of me is that I am brave. I really dare to do things that others dare not do."
The more Liu Ji said, the more Xiao He frowned. Xiao He still had the prince's expression of concern for him in every possible way in his mind today.
"Are those all fake?"
Xiao He got up and kept wandering in the yard.
Liu Ji also walked out.
"The prince is true to you, but it's different to me."
Xiao He looked at Liu Ji, the moonlight was unclear, and his expression was also vague.
"But why are you so kind to me?"
"Humph - it's just the emperor's technique. Some people are his swords, and some people are his treasures. I happen to be a smelly stone. If I sharpen it, I can help the prince achieve things." Liu Ji was very indifferent, even though he knew how to help the prince. Su was just using him, but he didn't care at all.
Under the moon, Xiao He looked at Liu Ji. He suddenly lay on Liu Ji's shoulder, "It was me who harmed you. He wouldn't have summoned you, but I introduced you. It made you come to Xianyang and get involved in such danger." among.”
"I should have thought of it earlier. The prince also told me that Xianyang is a place of right and wrong, and what I am asked to do is also very dangerous. Although I was mentally prepared, I didn't have time to tell you the ins and outs."
Xiao He said and squatted on the ground. Liu Ji couldn't see his face clearly under the moon, but just helped him up.
When Xiao He stood up, two crystal pillars of water hung on his face.
Liu Ji laughed.
"But if you don't recommend me, then do you know what I am doing now? I will continue to lie in the field. Maybe I will marry a widow in the future, make do with children, and live in peace for the rest of my life."
"But after dinner, I still have to listen to other people talking about you and how you are doing in Xianyang. But I can only talk to the dirt on the ground while killing dogs with Fan Kuai."
"Without you, without the crown prince of Qin, I might never have been able to reach Xianyang or even enter Xianyang Palace. I might never have known that there are so many beautiful women in the world, like fairies descending to earth."
"We will never know that the senior officials of the Qin State that we criticized in the past are a hundred times more powerful than we thought. What I see and hear will always be limited by the small world of Peixian County."
Xiao He couldn't help but stop crying when he heard what Liu Ji said.
"Really? You don't regret coming to Xianyang?"
"How could I regret it? I am Liu Ji. I am determined to become a man!"
"It's better to let me die than to trap me in Pei County for the rest of my life. The prince at least gave me a chance to make a difference!"
In Liu Ji's mind, Fusu cannot be described as good or bad.
For Liu Ji, Fusu was the most noble person he met in his life. With this dragon, he can borrow the other party's strength to reach the nine heavens.
As for this noble man, what exactly do you need him to do? Liu Ji actually didn't care that much.
When Xiao He heard this, the guilt in his heart disappeared.
"But you did it despite knowing the danger."
"He is the king and I am the minister. If the king wants the minister to die, the minister has to die."
Xiao He was naturally angry when he heard this, "I'll go find the prince. Ask him to let you go back."
In the darkness, Liu Ji stopped talking.
Xiao He said again, "No big deal, I'll quit with you."
Xiao He is really such a person.
Liu Ji asked, "Then, you want me to go back to farming? Have children?"
Xiao He listened and was slowly stunned. He suddenly realized that this was a matter between the prince and Liu Ji. He couldn't get involved at all.
The prince needs someone to help him fight against his father, King Qin. And Liu Ji needed the prince to let him get what he wanted.
Xiao He felt that his eyes were dark and he could not see Liu Ji's face clearly.
"I know you are doing it for my own good and you are really doing it for my own good. But please let me pursue what I want."
After Liu Ji finished speaking, he walked back into the house, picked up the sword on the table, and walked to his house next door.
On one side is the house with three entrances, and on the other side is the courtyard with one entrance.
One is the prince's minister, who will be an important minister in the court in the future; the other is the prince's guard, who may be a pawn for the rest of his life.
He is not jealous of Xiao He, nor does he resent Fu Su.
Liu Ji just felt that he should not just be a little guard.
Liu Ji thought about it when he returned home and saw that his son had fallen asleep.
But he was lying on his couch and touched the side. Not to mention women, there was not even a woman's clothes.
Thinking back on what he had seen and heard in the past month or so since he met the prince.
Liu Ji slowly fell into sleep, falling deeper and deeper into sleep.
-
Early the next morning, Liu Ji came to the palace with Xiao He as usual, as if nothing had happened yesterday.
The genius had just dawned, and the two of them had to get up early to wait for the service.
The palace has a strict hierarchy and many rules.
As soon as the two entered the palace, Liu Ji immediately followed Xiao He, seemingly to protect him.
Xia Houying entered the royal fleet and was responsible for the prince's horses. Such a person was an important person among the important people and had almost no vacation. There was no way for him to meet Liu Ji Xiaohe.
Early in the morning, he started raising and training horses like everyone else.
Even though it was just a job of serving horses, a stable was bigger than the county court in Peixian County, and it took only two hours for someone to take away the filth inside.
The entire palace is like a huge precision machine, and everyone is just a small link in the small parts.
Everyone is working non-stop.
Xia Houying finished drinking water for the horses at dawn, and then came over to check the carriage compartment. No one knows when the prince will use the car, so he must check it frequently.
Suddenly, several Qin brothers came over.
Qin brothers, this is the code name Xia Houying gave them in his heart. These people are not bad, and they also have their own families in Xianyang City. They are more generous and generous than they think, and they are very willing to accept themselves.
Unable to leave the palace and unable to see his wife, they took the initiative to contact their female relatives to help her.
These things allowed Xia Houying to quickly integrate into this environment, and even completely eliminated his resistance to Qin.
"Xia Houying—that brother of yours, Liu Ji, is amazing!"
Xia Houying has always been worried about Liu Ji. He was worried that Liu Ji's personality would not get along with others in the palace.
"What, what happened to him?" Xia Houying jumped off the car.
"You don't know yet? Everyone in the palace has gone crazy today."
"Did he get into trouble?"
The Qin brothers looked at each other, then laughed at Xia Houying, "Look how scared you are."
"Last night your brother Liu Ji actually educated our Tingwei in public."
"What! Education Tingwei!" Xia Houying's face darkened, "Is he crazy?"
"What's the hurry? The king was praising him this morning."
Xia Houying's eyes widened, "Aren't you kidding me?"
"What are you lying to?"
"There was news in Zhangtai Palace this morning that someone told the king about this while he was changing his clothes. When the king heard this, he was very happy and said that Liu Ji was extraordinary."
When Xia Houying heard this, he just murmured in his heart, "What does the king mean by saying it's unusual?" The people in Xianyang Palace are very articulate in their words, and one sentence can have several meanings. '
The chariot guard in the palace smiled and said, "Don't worry. The king laughed. It's not a big deal. Besides, the relationship between the prince and the court lieutenant has always been good. They both like to read classics and have often worked together."
Xia Houying listened, and then a stone fell to the ground in his chest.
A few people were talking and joking when suddenly Lang Wei from Hengyang Palace came out to deliver a message.
"The prince will go to Shanglin Garden immediately. Please prepare quickly and drive to the gate of the palace."
"only!"
Xia Houying was overjoyed when he heard that he felt that he would be able to see Liu Ji.
Sure enough, Liu Ji really followed Fusu...
Not only that, but also Xiao He, Lu Ze of Qi State, Feng Jing, the nephew of the young master of Qin State, and Guan Fu, the fifth official of Qin State.
Xiao He naturally followed Fu Su and sat in the car.
Liu Ji became much calmer, as if he had changed into a different person overnight.
When he saw Xia Houying, he didn't say a word and followed Fusu very quietly.
The other generals slipped onto the chariot together.
The remaining people could only run and catch up on foot as infantry following the carriage.
A team of a thousand people marched out of the palace in a mighty manner.
The queen's condition improved, and Fusu was also happy and naturally wanted to go hunting.
When I first returned to the palace, there were too many bad things.
Fortunately, the clouds are clearing now.
The palace was busy preparing for the banquet again. Feng Wuze and Feng Jie escorted 200,000 surrendered soldiers back to Xianyang City.
When they arrived at the hunting ground, this was when Liu Ji really opened his eyes.
The vast plain stretches as far as the eye can see, with the Weishui River flowing through it. The wide river channel even gave rise to a large river beach.
There are numerous peaks and dense forests in the distance. Wild deer are chirping in the mountains and forests. The sound of tigers is heard from afar. White snakes hang high on the trees in twos and threes. Monkeys are also on the trees in groups.
From deep in the forest, the roar of tigers can be heard from time to time. Rhinos and crocodiles lie down in a pool with iron railings set up around it.
In addition, there are peacocks, various tall and rare rare birds, all locked in giant iron cages.
Liu Ji, Xia Houying, and Lu Ze were all stunned.
They were not surprised to see these previously unseen animals for the first time.
But the Qin State actually gathered so many rare species in such a place, locked them all in a cage, and sent so many people to care for them.
The manpower, material resources, and even funds consumed behind this are beyond their imagination.
While several people widened their eyes, they couldn't help but sigh, "As expected of the Qin State!"
"That's how much it costs to buy it."
The brothers of the Qin State introduced them, "These do not cost money. Many precious species are tributes from the state, and some are donated by the ministers. You are still low-ranking. When you get to the position of Wei Commander, you will meet every morning. There are people queuing up in front of your house to give gifts.”
"This is why many people are desperate to get to the palace. As long as they have power, many things will be given to them naturally."
After Lu Ze, Liu Ji, and Xia Houying heard this, they naturally understood that these words were a reminder to them that they were able to enter the palace because they had actually turned over.
While Fusu, Guan Fu, Feng Jing and others were hunting in the forest in front, the others were waiting behind.
Several Qin people took the opportunity to express their attachment to Liu Ji, "Brother Liu, when you become prosperous in the future, don't forget to support us."
"Yes, the king and the prince both have a good impression of you. You must seize the opportunity. If you need anything in the future, just tell us."
When Xia Houying heard these words, he was heartbroken.
He strolled away alone and returned to his brothers who worked in the stables with him. They sat on the edge of the river beach.
These brothers asked him, "Why don't you join them?"
After all, Xia Houying is related to Liu Ji, Xiao He, and Cao Shen, and they are willing to give Xia Houying benefits, as long as Xia Houying is willing to say good things to them in front of Xiao He.
Xia Houying said categorically, "I can't stand it."
A new wind blew over and hit everyone's faces. The sultry stench that had lingered in Xianyang for a long time began to be dissipated, and everyone gained temporary clarity.
The brothers all looked at Xia Houying, and before they knew it, everyone began to sit around him.
Liu Ji was also unhappy, but he was very good at dealing with these people. He didn't agree, but he didn't refuse either. Anyway, he just talked about it with these people.
Lu Ze looked honest and honest, and he didn't look like someone who would take bribes; besides, Lu Ze's status was higher than theirs, and there was a woman in the palace as a backer for the prince, so they didn't dare to talk to Lu Ze casually.
