My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 552 Autumn Hunting Ceremony (please give me a monthly ticket!)
Qu Feng clung to Liu Ji and kept running against him.

Liu Ji is not the kind of person who holds grudges. He will avenge his grudges today.

As for the trouble later? He doesn't care so much!
This breath can’t go away, it’s really uncomfortable!

On the day when everyone returned to Xianyang Palace, Liu Ji made an excuse to check the carriages before setting off on their return journey, and took the opportunity to give the horses of Qufeng's chariot some delicious food.

Qu Feng is a general, and his rank is quite high. He likes to show off himself very much, especially to the outside world where he regards himself as the guard of the prince's traveling motorcade.

Every time he left the palace and returned home, he would fly a flag with the word Hengyang, order the soldiers to drive the chariot, and return home from Xianyang Palace.

Liu Ji fed Qu Feng's horse delicious food, but it had no effect when he returned to the palace.

Just when Liu Ji was worried.

The Qin brothers came to tell him, "Liu Ji - something happened to Qu Weiwei. Qu Weiwei's carriage suddenly lost control on the street, collided with a wealthy businessman's carriage, and scared his horse away. Now The wealthy businessman reported Qu Weiwei to Tingwei."

After Liu Ji heard this, he felt a little bad.

"Why are you suing Wei Ting?" He touched the back of his head.

"After trial, all cases in the world are handed over to the Tingwei for inspection. And the cases in Xianyang City are reported directly to the Tingwei. This is a big deal." These Qin soldiers often suffered from Qu Feng. He scolded him, and he naturally chuckled when he heard that he was unlucky.

Liu Ji put his hands on his hips. When his brother left, he patted his forehead.

"This is a big deal!"

As he spoke, Liu Ji took off his clothes and lay on his couch. It doesn't matter how old he is, let's get some sleep first.

Qu Feng's matter was really brought to Tingwei Mansion.

Li Si inspected the horses, confirmed the details, and listened to the confessions of both parties. It was time to decide the case. Not only would Qufeng be punished to compensate the other party, but he would also be deprived of his position in accordance with the law.

But the other party happened to be someone from the prince's womb, so Li Si put the case on hold for the time being.

He personally sent someone to ask Fusu for instructions.

"Tingwei, the prince replied and asked Tingwei to enforce the law impartially."

When Li Si heard this, it seemed that Qu Feng was not liked by the prince, so he could only go through the process.

This is how the case started to progress.

The trial of an official with such a special status takes many days.

At this time, everyone was preparing for the Autumn Hunting Ceremony.

This world seems to be the same world, but everyone's world is different.

Some people went to prison and were busy looking for connections to get out of the lawsuit; some people were working day and night in the palace to deal with national affairs; some people were in the palace with three glasses of light wine, singing about the wind and the moon; some people were busy Lu Lu excerpted classics from dictionaries and classics and re-recorded them.

Too learned.

On a hot autumn day, the sun hangs high in the sky over Xianyang.

Xiao He entered the Imperial Academy to work as a prince.

Only Liu Ji liked the days of eating, drinking and having fun with Fusu in the palace.

Xiao He can't do it.

When Liu Ji was in Peixian County, he was busy fooling around with Fan Kuai, Zhou Bo, Lu Wan and others, while Xiao He was studying and solving cases, and he had almost no time to spare.

Xiao He felt that the days were so long that he had to do something. If he didn't work hard for a day, he would always feel uneasy.

So Xiao He went to the palace on time every morning to pay homage to the prince, and then went to Taixue to sort out the books.

He organizes the books very carefully and makes no mistakes.

There were dozens of doctors in the palace. Some people once felt offended because Xiao He was born in the countryside, had never followed a famous teacher, and did not have a school of thought, but he relied on the prince's favor to compile the classics of hundreds of schools of thought.

Relying on their authority, they united to conduct a surprise inspection of Xiao He's work.

As a result, every word written by Xiao He had been verified. He wrote annotations on the side of chapters and sentences in classics that he was not sure of their origin.

By the time these people came to check, Xiao He had already written a large basket in just a few days.

Of course, Cao Shen and several minor officials also helped, but most of the tasks were completed by Xiao He.

Xiao He also gained the respect of those doctors and servants, and everyone praised him as a very talented person.

Some people even relied on their old age and persuaded Xiao He to become a Confucian disciple, so that he could have a place to live with him in the future.

However, Xiao He rejected all these.

Xiao He said, "I'd like to trouble you all to persuade you personally, but I'm just a commoner. For things like learning, I can only stand at the foot of the mountain like a child and watch from a distance. If I were allowed to become a master, I would join the rest of the world." I am not qualified to discuss doctrine.”

Xiao He refused this matter very humbly and was very courteous to those servants who were obviously ill-intentioned. This not only saved him from the disaster of verbal and written criticism, but also won him a good reputation in Xianyang City.

Xiao He didn't care about good or bad reputation. He only cared about whether he lived a solid life today and whether he lived up to the prince's trust.

Gradually, people in Xianyang City gave Xiao He a nickname.

Xiao Tingwei——

This is a very remarkable title.

People in Xianyang City all thought that Xiao He was meticulous, fair and courteous, much like their Tingwei Li Si.

However, whether Li Si acted impartially or not is another matter, but all the cases he handled were done with due process. In terms of form and procedure, it is almost perfect.

Anyway, as soon as Xiao He arrived in Xianyang, he asked everyone to compare him with Li Si, which was very impressive.

So much so that when Ying Zheng heard about these things, he couldn't help but want to summon him.

As a result, Xiao He quickly became famous in Xianyang City with his talents, and was summoned by King Qin to Zhangtai Palace.

In fact, Ying Zheng was just curious as to whether his son really had such magical powers and found someone who could rival Li Si through his dreams.

You ask Ying Zheng if he believes that Fusu really had that dream, of course he doesn't.

"The prince grew up under the watch of others. You probably don't know. There is almost no truth in the prince's mouth. But he doesn't tell lies either. He just tells the truth to everyone he meets."

"The dream he mentioned was a lie to you."

Ying Zheng had a sword on his waist and said this to Xiao He with a smile.

Xiao He recalled what Liu Ji told him before, and said to Ying Zheng:
"I heard people say that everyone in the world is afraid of the king and respects the king. The subjects in Xianyang City all admire the king and worship the king. Everyone only knows the king and regards the prince as your minister."

"But to the humble minister, the king is naturally the sky, but the sky overlooks all living things. But Xiao He is just a person under the prince's roof. The prince drove to meet him, took care of his ministers in every possible way, and treated him with courtesy. Such kindness, no matter what the reason is None of it makes me question the prince."

Xiao He didn't know why, he was quite afraid of King Qin.

But after meeting King Qin, he unknowingly began to defend the prince.

When King Qin saw Xiao He being so calm, he couldn't help but ask, "You only have eyes for the prince."

"The prince only has eyes for the king."

When Ying Zheng heard this, his eyes were naturally filled with admiration for Xiao He.

"A talent like you can only follow the prince to organize documents. If you intend to do something big, I can make you a court captain."

"Li Tingwei is the only one who can do the job of the king's court captain. I am of little talent, and being a prince would cause criticism if I sacrifice others. If I become the king's court officer, people in the world will laugh at me for not overestimating my ability and being petty. I'm afraid I will be scolded. The king doesn’t understand people well.”

Ying Zheng naturally fell in love with Xiao He even more. But he knew that Xiao He's heart had already followed Fusu.

Later, I stopped forcing it.

Feng Jing told Fu Su everything, "Prince, the king has taken a liking to Xiao Sheren and wants to make Xiao Sheren the king's lieutenant. Isn't the king poaching your corner?"

Fusu shook his head, "Father Jun is not poaching me, but he also values ​​Xiao Sheren's talent and character, and wants to take this opportunity to enhance Xiao He's reputation in Xianyang City."

Fusu said, and couldn't help but think of Han Fei.

In the past, Ying Zheng's power was not that great, and my love for him could bring him death.

But now, Ying Zheng can decide everything with just one sentence. His power isn't what it used to be.

A few words of praise for Xiao He would give him a gold medal to gain a foothold in Xianyang City.

Power is so important to the emperor, so why did he agree with the enfeoffment system from the beginning? He should help Ying Zheng first to establish the emperor system.

He can't reverse history by becoming an emperor. His father was an emperor, but in the eyes of the world, he was just a vassal king with a large territory!
This is not possible!

These things must be considered in the long term, and we must plan and calculate from now on.
-
Soon, the autumn hunting ceremony began.

Qu Feng's charges were cleared, and Li Si enforced the law impartially and re-tried the case himself.

Based on the testimony provided by the wealthy businessman and the statement made in court, Qu Feng was acquitted.

Qu Feng was finally acquitted in time for the Autumn Hunting Ceremony.

As soon as he came back, he said to everyone, "It is necessary to meet Wei Ting. If he meets anyone else, it may be an unjust, false or wrong case."

All the soldiers were shocked by his majesty, and they all made promises.

Liu Ji originally felt sorry for Qu Feng. The other party actually almost lost his official position, but when he withdrew from such a big lawsuit and was still so arrogant after coming back, Liu Ji felt that he was too soft-hearted.

However, when Qu Feng was away for more than ten days, Hengyang Palace was Liu Ji's home court.

By the time Qu Feng came back, Liu Ji had memorized the names of every guard in Hengyang Palace and even had a general understanding of the situation in each of their homes. Liu Ji has already begun to call himself brothers with other brothers.

A grown man in his early thirties soon convinced the young guards in the palace with his excellent psychological quality and strong mentality.

By the time Qu Feng came back, everyone had already called him Brother Liu Ji.

Even Fusu had not expected such a situation.

However, this was something he had never dreamed of for many years.

As the prince of Qin, Fusu could not easily talk to the soldiers, let alone have a "confidential" relationship with them, but this was what Fusu lacked the most.

Now that the two tigers coexist, the soldiers are obedient and don't know what to do.

It seems that he is loyal to everyone, but in fact he is loyal to no one.

As soon as Liu Ji arrived, all these things were resolved.

Because he won the hearts of these people.

Fusu sat in the courtyard and enjoyed the shade under a tree.

The apricot trees are covered with orange-yellow apricot fruits, and the colorful fallen leaves flutter down with the autumn wind.

With the strong wind, the golden leaves everywhere danced with the wind and rolled up to the eaves of the palace.

The leaves are flying, jumping from the palace to outside the palace wall, and floating to every corner of Xianyang City.

In autumn, when dandelions mature, their seeds will be blown everywhere by the breeze.

These seeds are tiny and inconspicuous. They fall on the ground and the world turns a blind eye. When next spring, countless dandelion seedlings will sprout from the ground.

The seeds of a great change have begun to slowly breed and spread in the Heng Yang Palace.
-
Autumn Hunting Ceremony.

Fusu released Hu Hai.

After Chun Yuyue's teachings and the careful teaching and supervision of everyone in Hengyang Palace, Hu Hai has now begun to be knowledgeable and sensible.

When he saw Ying Zheng, he bowed politely and said hello. He was wearing silk clothes that were better than those of the other young masters. He had a strong body and his eyes were full of light.

It seems that everyone loves him very much.

This made Ying Zheng look at Hu Hai and then at Fu Su.

How come the temperaments of these two people are more and more similar.

Why does Fusu love the widow's son so much? Hu Hai was not the youngest son, but he was born to a Hu woman. Other than that, there was nothing special about him.

A terrible thought flashed through Ying Zheng's mind.

But then he looked at the age difference between the two and shook his head.

When he was ten years old, Fusu was still endorsing Han Fei. Hu Hai was already born at that time.

Soon, the hunt officially begins.

The first thing the well-behaved Hu Hai did was to take off the dog's leash and take off the horse's rein.

For a moment, the horses were rushing through the crowd, and the carriage crashed and fell to pieces on the ground.

Both the driver and Hu Hai fell from the car.

Seeing this, the other princes felt that Hu Hai was afraid that his arms and legs would be broken. As a result, he miraculously climbed out of the car and continued to ride on the driver's neck.

"Hurry up and chase! Hurry up and chase!"

Hu Hai slapped the coachman on the butt with the reins and yelled.

Ying Zheng had already gone to the mountains and forests to hunt wild boars with his ministers.

Wild boar hunting is the most exciting hunting game.

The other young masters followed Fusu's group and laughed around Hu Hai.

Fusu looked at Hu Hai and was also surprised.

He did learn a lot of etiquette, but he didn't learn it in his heart.

Chunyu Yue, who was accompanying him, closed his eyes when he saw this.

The ancestor's methods of educating people were of no use to Hu Hai.

Teaching students in accordance with their aptitude, without being angry or enlightened, without being angry or angry, all failed with Hu Hai.

In fact, Hu Hai gave everyone a glimpse of what it means to be an external Confucian scholar and an internal Dharma scholar. On the surface, he is very polite, but deep down he is still extremely ambitious and tyrannical.

"My eighteenth brother will definitely be extraordinary in the future."

Fusu couldn't help but feel worried when he saw that Hu Hai's development exceeded his expectations.

Even the little Hu Hai knows how to rely on his power and position to bully the common people unscrupulously. If he is not more ruthless, how can he suppress these corrupt nobles of the Qin Kingdom.

At this time, Jiang Lu came over.

"Won't the prince stop Hu Hai? If he behaves like this, there will be big trouble in the future."

Chunyu Yue hurriedly stepped forward, "Second Young Master, this is my fault in teaching you. The Eighteenth Prince is acting like this because of my lack of ability. Let me take the Eighteenth Prince back to the palace."

"No need. Let me give it a try." Fusu was very curious about his status in Hu Hai's mind.

This Hu Hai was very good at acting, and he pretended to be so good in front of Jun's father. When Jun's father was gone and they were left alone, he began to reveal his true nature.

When Fusu approached Hu Hai, he was also deciding Hu Hai's life or death.

From the moment he brought him to his palace, Fusu prepared for the worst.

"Eighteenth brother, stand up."

Hu Hai was immersed in his own little world. He imagined that there was a horse under his crotch for him to ride, just like the ordinary father and son he saw playing when he followed Chun Yuyue out of the street.

Hu Hai just wants to imitate...

When Fusu came over, Hu Hai felt that his world suddenly became cooler.

What surprised everyone was that such a bastard was someone who no one could control.

After seeing Fusu, he really stopped.

Hu Hai slowly climbed down from the coachman.

The driver thanked Fusu again and again.

Fusu looked at Hu Hai and sighed that it was okay. This child can still be saved.

Fusu ignored the coachman and asked Hu Hai, "Why are you riding on him?"

Hu Hai looked at the accusing eyes of everyone, and even his eldest brother had a very angry expression.

He still didn't know where he went wrong.

"I saw other fathers playing like this with their sons."

The people present were all Ying Zheng’s sons.

Everyone was silent when they heard it.

Their family is a noble family that has been passed down for hundreds of years.

By Ying Zheng's generation, there is not much family affection left. Even if there is family affection, Ying Zheng's personality means that he rarely interacts with his son like this.

Hu Hai seemed to have unintentionally opened the scars in everyone's hearts.

At first, everyone thought that Hu Hai had been taught bad things, but now they suddenly understood why this kid was always going crazy.

Everyone looked at Hu Hai speechlessly.

Jiang Lu also fell into silence. He had never even considered what Hu Hai said. He didn't even know how ordinary father and son got along.

Can a son actually ride on his father's body as a horse...

Fusu looked at Hu Hai, his heart was in turmoil. He had always wanted to use culture and education to change something.

If even Hu Hai disappoints him, then what's the use of persisting.

Fusu leaned over and touched Hu Hai's shoulder, and said to him solemnly:
"Do you know that etiquette is a behavior that comes from the heart? Etiquette is for oneself, not for others to see. If you are a person who doesn't like to be restrained by nature, then I allow you to not be restrained in front of others; if If you want to be a polite gentleman, then you must always be strict with yourself in front of others and behind you.”

"Now, I want you to tell me in front of everyone whether you like to be yourself without restraint, or whether you want to be a gentleman who abides by etiquette and is consistent on the outside."

"No matter which decision you make, I will support you."

Fusu's words made all the brothers look at him sideways.

Fusu has never been the first person to resist false etiquette.

Hu Hai clasped his hands, looked up at Fusu, and then at Chunyu Yue:

"If being a gentleman means wearing these clothes and saying certain things to people when you meet them, then I won't be a gentleman anymore."
