Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 154 Shooting yourself in the foot

Li Si rushed to the gate of Xianyang Palace in a carriage, and saw Prime Minister Feng Quji and Shangqing Mengyi also arrived at Xianyang Palace at the same time.

It seems that everyone has received news from Baoding!Li Si was not surprised by Feng Quji and Meng Yi's quick response. The Feng family had run the court for several generations and had deep roots. The Meng brothers, Meng Tian held a heavy army, and Meng Yi was a confidant of the First Emperor.

If you can't keep abreast of the movements in Xianyang City, I'm afraid there will be no bones left that have already been eaten!Not to mention anything else, even Li Si had many people who were loyal to him under his command. The moment the knight entered the city, such news was sent to the Prime Minister's Mansion as quickly as possible.

Otherwise, how could they come to Xianyang Palace at the same time.

The news that Bao Ding came out of Fen Sui should not be false, but the specific situation still needs to be learned from the emperor.

These days, Li Si, Feng Quji, and Meng Yi have also been troubled a little bit. When a celestial phenomenon such as Yinghuo Shouxin appears, which one of these important officials can be spared, and the worst one is Feng Quji.

Before Yinghuo Shouxin appeared, Feng Quji could be said to have reached the pinnacle of his life. All along, he was the right prime minister because the Feng family had run for several generations and received support from the court. But when it comes to the prime minister's mansion Government affairs have always been dominated by Li Si.

And Li Si was also the confidant of the First Emperor. Compared to Li Si, he was just a little nobler, that's all. In the rest, he was inferior to Li Si in every aspect.

And he tried his best to build momentum for Yinggao. Sure enough, under Feng Quji's call, many people chose to follow him and support Yinggao.

But as soon as Yinghuo Shouxin appeared, Yinggao, who was originally a sweet pastry, suddenly seemed to have become a plague god.Xinsu is the bright hall of the emperor, so who is Yinghuo?Thinking of the prince who rose up in Xianyang recently, it can only be Yinggao, and immediately, Yinggao is avoided by everyone.

And he, Feng Quji, won the support of others, isn't it because Yinggao is his grandson-in-law and the son of the first emperor?Everyone else was betting that Yinggao might inherit the throne, but Yinghuo Shouxin knew that the possibility of Yinggao inheriting the throne was very slim.

This kind of scene is very similar to the scene when Fusu left Xianyang, but it seems that Yinggao's end is even worse, and it also fully shows the nature of bureaucrats to play tricks.

Feng Quji was shooting himself in the foot. Li Si and Meng Yi couldn't help laughing at Feng Quji's jokes, but they didn't show it due to the self-cultivation cultivated in high positions for a long time.

The three met each other at a glance, and walked into Xianyang Palace together.

Seeing Li Si, Feng Quji, and Meng Yi coming, Ying Zheng couldn't wait to say: "The three Qing families, the treasure tripod came out of Fen Sui, and the destiny is in Qin!"

Seeing Ying Zheng's expression of joy from top to bottom, Li Si first cupped his hands and said: "Your Majesty's meritorious service is unrivaled in the world, and the treasure tripod is indeed the gift of His Majesty's blessing. I congratulate Your Majesty and congratulate the great Qin Dynasty for thousands of years."

Meng Yi and Feng Quji also immediately said: "I congratulate Your Majesty, congratulations to the great Qin Dynasty for thousands of years."

Ying Zheng said without hesitation: "Three Qings, I am looking for you! I decided to go to Hedong in person to welcome Baoding back. What do the three Qings think?"

Li Si knew that the birth of Baoding greatly relieved Yingzheng's predicament. Now, he couldn't restrain his restless heart. Li Si said: "Baoding, the most important weapon of the country, has been the ancestral temple of Sheji since Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties. I believe that your majesty should patrol the east of the river to welcome Baoding back."

"The ministers and others seconded the proposal." Both Feng Quji and Meng Yi agreed with this, Baoding was extraordinary, and it was only natural for the emperor to greet him personally.

Seeing that the three of them had agreed, Ying Zheng felt even more happy. This was the first time he was so happy after Yinghuo kept his heart.Reminiscent of the accusations made by some people in the court these days, Ying Zheng couldn't wait to show them this memorial to let them understand that Da Qin has always been destined by destiny.

"Your Majesty, who excavated Baoding?" Li Si knew clearly that the person who made Baoding come into being had a lot of credit.

The look of joy in Yingzheng's eyes was even greater, and he said, "It's my unicorn son Fusu." There was no concealment of his admiration for Fusu in his words.

Hearing this name, Li Si was completely shocked. Fu Su, Li Si knew that he was not dead, but Li Si did not expect that Fu Su would be the one who dug out the treasure tripod.

Meng Yi's expression was not much better either. The news that Fusu had died a few months ago was well known to the people of Xianyang, but now, Fusu not only survived, but also dug up a treasured tripod. Meng Yi said something good.

The one with the ugliest face was Feng Quji. It was a great effort to let Fusu leave the Feng family in Xianyang. Later, Fusu was assassinated again because of the acquiescence of the Feng family. What can be exchanged?It doesn't matter that Fusu is not dead, but he actually made a treasure tripod. It can be imagined that once Fusu returns to Xianyang, he will have more prestige than he left.

After paying such a high price, but getting nothing, and it seems that Fusu has been fulfilled, Feng Quji regrets that his intestines are green. If he knew today, he should not have colluded with the courtiers and forced His Majesty to punish Fusu severely.

"Your Majesty, what is going on?" Meng Yi eagerly wanted to know the reason.

Hearing Meng Yi's question, Yingzheng felt even more proud, Yingzheng said: "The day Fusu left Xianyang, he was assassinated by thieves. Fortunately, the Mo family rescued him and turned the crisis into safety. That bad son of Fusu simply decided to use his tricks and get out of his shell as soon as he came out. , making the thieves think that Fusu is dead, but in fact, Fusu has been in secret contact with me for the past few months."

Hearing Ying Zheng's words, Meng Tian suddenly realized, and Feng Quji's face turned pale. It was because he was played by Ying Zheng and his son, and he was kept in the dark from the beginning to the end.

Li Sidao: "I congratulate Your Majesty."

However, Ying Zheng smiled and said, "Prime Minister, your eldest son Li You is also good, and he is also responsible for the birth of Bao Ding." With that said, Ying Zheng handed the urgent report to Li Si.

Li Si was puzzled, so he immediately picked up the emergency report and read it carefully. When he saw that Li You was cooperating with it, he immediately understood.

This credit was given by Fusu to the Li family. Even if Fusu bypassed Li You and went directly to Hedong County, it would not be difficult to find Baoding, which made the Li family owe Fusu another favor.

Meng Yi and Feng Quji also read the report together, Feng Quji felt extremely uncomfortable at the moment, and Meng Yi also felt a little uncomfortable.

After all, Fusu has always been close to their Meng family, but in the past year, Fusu has become estranged from the Meng family a lot, and has shown kindness to Li Si several times, which makes Meng Yi feel a little uncomfortable.
