My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 761 Know your father Mo Ruozi

When ordinary people get sick, they go to doctors. When doctors get sick, they go to Yi experts.

Industry rules.

When the new owner of Zhangtai Palace heard that Ying Zheng was ill, his lips curled up.

This made Ji Xin feel for a moment that the Second Generation was really cold and inhuman.

The others also bowed and looked around, wondering what the emperor meant.

Before, Your Majesty was very concerned about the diet and daily life of the retired emperor, and specially sent the best chefs in the palace to the retired emperor.

Fusu laughed several times and then asked, "This Yi family expert is Wei Liao, right?"

Ji Xin was so surprised, "Your Majesty, you also know this. We met the national commander on the way to the palace to meet His Majesty, and he told us."

In fact, if Ying Zheng and Liao were not in a monarch-minister relationship, they might have been good friends or brothers.

After all, Ying Zheng likes to play with capable people.

However, outsiders who did not know Qin Shihuang himself and Wei Liao found this story very magical.

Wei Liao was a more difficult person to deal with than Zhang Cang in the past.

Zhang Cang can't control his mouth, and he is a technical talent; Wei Liao is a strategist, the kind that Ying Zheng would be willing to exchange for ten Zhang Cangs for Wei Liao.

Qin Shi Huang wanted to imprison this man several times, and Wei Liao scolded Qin Shi Huang several times.

So sometimes when Fusu thought of Wei Liao, he always felt that Zhang Cang was much better than him. At least Zhang Cang knew how to be timid, while Wei Liao did not; Zhang Cang knew how to save face for Qin Shi Huang, but Wei Liao did not know how to save face for Qin Shi Huang.

Sometimes Zhang Cang wondered if he was too cowardly. If he had not been afraid of death and had not run away after insulting Qin Shi Huang, he would have been reused by Qin Shi Huang a long time ago.

However, there are no ifs in life.

Keke, get back to business.

Fusu heard that the emperor was seriously ill and all the doctors were helpless. "The emperor has a heart disease and needs heart medicine to treat it."

When everyone heard this, they were all convinced.

In fact, everyone understands the truth. If a person who was once so strong is suddenly locked up, something bad is bound to happen.

Everyone looked at each other, thinking to themselves, this is a matter between you and your son, don't involve me.

Chen Ping just felt annoyed.

He was such a talented person, but he ended up following Qin II to be a secretary. His goal was to be the Internal History of Ji Su, and he would follow Qin II to deal with such messy matters all day long.

Chen Ping is really annoying!
He wanted to follow Qin II to do great things, and he wanted to accomplish something earth-shaking.

In the end, he had to follow Qin II to deal with these trivial matters every day.

It is said that it is easy to conquer the world but difficult to keep it. In fact, when conquering the world, people are too lazy to care about trivial matters, but when the world is peaceful, there will be too many things to care about when protecting it.

A group of elite eunuchs, each with different thoughts at the moment.

Some thought that they should not be asked to wade into muddy waters, some felt extremely annoyed, and some wanted to seize this opportunity to cure the emperor's illness and then be promoted to a higher position...

"Chen Ping, what do you think?"

Everyone turned their eyes to Chen Ping.

"Your Majesty, I think what you said makes sense. This heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine."

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone showed contempt for Chen Ping.

I thought he would say something brilliant, but he ended up repeating the emperor's words.

Chen Ping was full of vigor and vitality, and when he saw the looks of these people, he naturally became competitive.

"Your Majesty, I have a good plan that can help the Emperor to recover from his illness as soon as possible."

Sure enough, upon hearing this, all the eunuchs looked at Chen Ping with admiration.

There is always a strong animal nature in human beings. Especially in the world of men, strength is always the key, whoever is stronger will be the king!
The simplest logic is engraved in the blood of every man, which creates men's super strong solidarity and enables them to quickly establish organizations and complete hierarchical distribution in the first place.

Whoever is strong is the boss.

This is the logic no matter where you are.

These Shangshutai Neishi, Shaoshi, Changshi, censors, etc., one by one began to show the attitude that a second-in-command should have for a thousand years, with a look of helplessness on their faces but having to accept the result.

Fusu knew that Chen Ping's strength was not limited to this. Sooner or later, he would enter the court and become a senior official.

Fusu always turned a blind eye to his little actions and thoughts in daily life.

Alas, who made him choose a lion as his follower?

"In your opinion, what should I do?"

"Your Majesty, it will soon be a year since you ascended the throne. By then, the princes and ministers will certainly present a memorial to congratulate Your Majesty, and the barbarians will also come to congratulate you."

"But before that, Your Majesty, why don't you recruit scholars and have talented scholars write odes for the Emperor?"

"The Emperor has the virtues of Yao. In the past, he wanted to ask the immortals to get rid of the sufferings of the world, but considering the empire's long-term plan, it is often difficult to take both sides into consideration."

"The Emperor was wavering between seeking immortality and governing the country, and finally succeeded in completing these tasks, so he hurriedly summoned Your Majesty back and passed the throne to Your Majesty."

"The virtue of the Emperor is like a mountain, high and deep."

Chen Ping talked incessantly, his bright red lips fluttering up and down like a red flag.

The on-duty usher felt like vomiting after hearing this. This guy Chen Ping is definitely not a good person.

He was the one who gave the most bad ideas to the retired emperor, causing the retired emperor to make the Xianyang Palace a mess, and the ministers all shook their heads when they saw it.

In the past, no one understood Chen Ping’s purpose, and at the beginning someone even reported Chen Ping’s misdeeds to Fusu.

As a result, after Fusu came to power, Chen Ping would ride in the same carriage with him when he went out and accompany him when he came in.

He is simply another Meng Yi who was highly valued by Emperor Qin Shi Huang.

Everyone realized what Chen Ping was here for, and no one dared to sue Chen Ping, or mention Qin Shi Huang's cultivation of immortality.

What's more, Fusu had the support of many ministers, and no one dared to do such a thing that would cost him his life.

For a moment, everyone felt sick of Chen Ping.

Chen Ping is really shameless.

He didn't care about the means at all when doing things. He even instigated the First Emperor to kidnap young boys and girls to practice Taoism. He did many other disgusting things.

Back then in the Xianyang Palace, Chen Ping was the number one favorite minister during the last critical moment of Qin Shihuang's reign.

But he suddenly transformed himself and became the number one favorite of Qin II.

He is such a two-faced villain.

It is no wonder that the gentlemen in the court looked down on Chen Ping. In fact, Chen Ping used tricks and did not care about the consequences at all. His purpose was just to avoid having to bear the consequences himself.

After Chen Ping's suggestion, all the eunuchs looked at Qin II in horror.

Since the accession of Qin II to the throne, no minister dared to say in front of Qin II how good Qin Shi Huang was.

There are many complicated issues here. Firstly, Qin Shi Huang offended too many court officials. Secondly, his cultivation of immortals made his officials sick. Thirdly, when Qin Er Shi ascended the throne, everyone was busy showing their loyalty and sincerity to the new master. Who would dare to speak highly of the old emperor in front of the new emperor?

It would be fine if he was gone, at least there would be no impact, but it happened that the other party was still alive and well, living in Yuzhen Palace.

So everyone remained silent and looked at Fusu anxiously.

Some people secretly gloated over his misfortune, thinking that Chen Ping had come up with a bad idea and that he was going to be in trouble.

But to everyone's surprise, Qin II liked this suggestion very much.

That’s right, Fusu understood Ying Zheng the best.

After Li Si and Zhao Gao were gone, the only person in Xianyang City who understood Ying Zheng's thoughts best was Fusu.

Fusu knew why Qin Shihuang fell ill. Losing power was one thing, but the key was that Qin Shihuang would feel extremely embarrassed to be driven out of office by his son.

He is Qin Shi Huang.

Although the abdication was done very well on the surface, Qin Shihuang drove his carriage to Mount Li himself that day.

But after all, being driven out by your son is not a decent thing.

The more Qin Shi Huang thought about it, the more ashamed he felt. Besides, he also wanted to cultivate immortality, so if things went wrong, he was bound to get into trouble.

In addition, it was his professional habit as an emperor for many years to always think about major issues concerning the country and people's livelihood.

In the past, he was able to at least get news from outside, and he knew that many of his subordinates were deceiving him, but the fact that they were deceiving him also allowed him to see many things.

If someone deceived the emperor, first, it meant that something really happened in that place; second, it meant that the minister was unreliable and had no ability to prevent or solve problems in advance; third, the minister's attitude could show whether he was afraid of himself.

It's just like reading fake history.

If it was forged, it means that the person who wrote history at that time had a guilty conscience. Why would he have a guilty conscience when writing history? Why didn't he forge other things, but this one?

This is logic. When a contradiction arises, study the contradiction itself.

It is not that the strong always have different thinking from ordinary people, but that the strong insist on not being brainwashed, insist on maintaining their own intuition and sensitivity, and never believe what others say.

This world is a huge makeshift team, and everything in it is designed by humans.

It would be absurd to believe everything you see with your own eyes.

Because you are implicitly admitting that everyone except you is an honest person, and everyone except you is an elite.

To get back to the point, the current Qin Shi Huang could not even hear a single piece of fake news, as he was completely cut off from any source of information. This left Ying Zheng alone in a closed space with his mind wandering every day. The more he thought, the more anxious, mad, and annoyed he became.

He tried his best to swallow the hot potato himself for his son.

As a result, the son refused to buy it and actually rebelled against his father.

Ying Zheng was imprisoned for more than half a year, and his emotions were severely damaged.

He was so pitiful that he fantasized that the two brothers Xiong Qi and Xiong Yi would come back to provoke him and fight with them again.

Poor Ying Zheng, no one talked to him.

He truly became a loner.

I cried all day long.

What a pitiful old man.

He failed in the political struggle, and if his opponent had not been his own son, he might have been beheaded by now.

Perhaps considering the source of his father's illness, or perhaps considering the political impact, Qin II still did as Chen Ping said.

This summer, the hearts of the scholars were as hot as the weather.

The scholars vied with each other to present their manuscripts in an attempt to gain the favor of Qin II and present them to Qin Shi Huang, so that his illness could be cured.

However, after ten days of conscription, the Zhangtai Hall in the Xianyang Palace received thousands of document scrolls, but after Fusu looked through them, he found only about fifty that were acceptable.

Due to my serious illness, I don’t have enough time to slowly collect beautiful articles.

Finally, after careful selection by a group of doctors in the Imperial Academy, ten articles were chosen and presented to Qin Shihuang.

To be honest, what Fusu did this time was very popular with the people.

Everyone knows that this is Qin II's love for his father.

Feng Quji, Kong Yu, Chunyu Yue and others all praised Fusu for this matter.

They felt that Qin II would definitely be a good emperor in the future.

When people are sons, they don’t understand the meaning of being filial to their fathers. But when they become fathers themselves, they suddenly understand their father’s distress and difficulties.

Those old people are experienced, and most of them want to be filial to their fathers, but their fathers are no longer around.

So these people attach great importance to filial piety.

Fusu did a good job and everyone praised him highly.

People are all made of flesh and blood. We can tell what you will do by looking at your daily behavior.

An emperor who can be filial to his father in time will definitely be a good emperor in the future.

The people of Xianyang also thought so. No matter what Qin II did, they liked to praise him.
-
It is said that Qin Shi Huang was bedridden at that time. It was heard that his son had recruited many scholars for him and wrote many articles praising him.

When Ying Zheng heard that his son had asked someone to write an article praising him, he immediately became energetic. No matter how sick he was, even if he only had his last breath left, he would finish reading those words of praise.

Most of those praises were flattering.

"Ji Xin, read to me quickly."

Ji Xin was very happy when he heard that. He studied the Qin characters hard every day, and as a general, he didn't need to learn characters anymore. But Ji Xin always believed that sooner or later he would be able to use them.

"Your Majesty, the first piece is "The First Emperor's Travels"."

"When the First Emperor traveled, the whole world was amazed. The eight horses galloped over mountains and ridges. They saw the vastness of the East China Sea, the beauty of the South Mountain, the depth of the North Sea, and explored the mystery of the Western Regions."

"The First Emperor went to the East China Sea and watched the sun rise in the east. The light was so bright that the sea and the sky merged into one color."

“When you go to Nanshan, you can enjoy the verdant pines and cypresses, surrounded by clouds and mist, as if you have entered a fairyland.”

“Go to the North Sea, watch the seagulls soaring, the waves surging, the majestic momentum.”

"Go to the Western Regions and explore the Silk Road, where the camel bells ring and merchants gather."

"When the First Emperor traveled, the whole world was amazed. His bravery and domineering spirit were unmatched. When he traveled around the world, everyone in the world knew his heart. The princes and grandchildren of the royal family should take the First Emperor as an example, work hard and create brilliance together."

After hearing this, Ying Zheng still had a bitter taste on his face.

He collapsed like a deflated ball and fell on the couch.

Ji Xin thought that she didn't read it wrong, so why did the emperor react like that?

Is this not well written?
Ji Xin raised the corners of her mouth and flipped through the articles again.
"The imperial wind is mighty, the world is in raptures, the world is at peace, and the First Emperor has accomplished his mission. He rides the lion among the eight steeds, tours the dust of the nine states, sees the magnificence of the mountains and rivers, and praises the creation of heaven and earth."

"The sky and earth are dark and yellow, the universe is vast and wild, the First Emperor was furious, and the six kingdoms surrendered."

"The sword points to the world, the horse's hooves trample the world, unify the country, and the achievements will last for thousands of years."

"The flames of war blaze across the sky, the drums of war beat, the enemy is at the gates, and they will not surrender."

"The First Emperor was mighty and domineering. He unified the weights and measures, writing system, and currency."

"With one script, one wheel, one moral code, all under heaven are one family."

"The Great Wall was built to protect China and resist foreign enemies, bringing peace and prosperity to the country and the people."

"The achievements of the First Emperor will be immortal; his contributions and accomplishments will be passed down through the ages."

After Ji Xin finished reading, she looked up and saw that the emperor had actually sat up from the couch, and his dragon eyes were looking straight at her.

Ji Xin shuddered all over.

Unexpectedly, the emperor stroked his beard and laughed.

"Good, good, great good."

“This is well written.”

Ji Xin was so scared that she broke out in a sweat. Seeing Qin Shi Huang smile, she thought that everyone's efforts were not in vain. Do you know how much effort it took to recruit scholars and collect articles this time?

Now it seems worth it.

When the doctors saw Qin Shihuang's performance, they all narrowed their eyes.

It turns out that heart disease needs to be treated with heart medicine.

Ji Xin understood Qin Shihuang's thoughts, so he selected two more articles and wanted to read them to the emperor.

He also hoped that the old man could be happier now.

"The autumn wind rises and the white dew falls. The Qin Emperor is so powerful that the six kingdoms bow down. The arrows are hidden and cast into hoes. The ambitious plan unfolds and the world is settled."

"My emperor is a man of great talent and vision, and he has carried on the legacy of six generations. He has swept away all the heroes, unified the world, and won the respect of all his friends and guests from all over the world."

“Dragons soar and tigers leap, phoenixes dance in the sky, the imperial power is mighty, no one dares to match it. I will create a hegemony that will last for thousands of years, leave my name in history, and be immortal.”

Ying Zheng stroked his beard and shook his head.

Ji Xin also took a deep breath. There were so many articles, and the ones selected were all excellent. But His Majesty only liked and praised one.

Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on Ji Xin's forehead. If these articles couldn't cure His Majesty, then there would be really nothing else that could be done.

"The autumn wind brings coolness and the white dew turns to frost, and the First Emperor of Qin ascends to the throne with his might and power."

"The princes bowed down and the people of the world came to him, and the king unified the country with his weapons and cavalry."

"Be determined to forge ahead and achieve great things, and be virtuous to all living beings and benefit the world."

"The universe is recreated, the sun and the moon shine again, the emperor's reign is long and his fame will last forever."

"The ceremony of enshrining the emperor at Mount Tai was announced to the world, and the imperial power was bestowed by God, and no one dared to disrespect it."

"With great pride and lofty aspirations, Qin Shi Huang will go down in history forever."

After listening to this song, Ying Zheng suddenly felt that he could see things clearly, his ears were sharper, and his whole body and mind felt extremely refreshed and comfortable.

But suddenly, he felt that this poem was very familiar.

"Who wrote this poem? It's the one that pleases me the most."

Ji Xin also felt that this article was somewhat unique, but when she turned to the last page, she found that there was no signature.

"Your Majesty, this is the only good article whose author did not leave his name."

Ying Zheng stroked his beard and smiled, and did not ask any more questions. He just asked Ji Xin to hand over the article and take away the others.
