Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 172 Winning and Compromising

After thinking this far, Fusu knew that the most important thing now is not to refute, if he refuted, it would only make Yingzheng more angry, because, in Yingzheng's view, it was contradicting, because Yingzheng had framed him, and instead would make Yingzheng even more angry. put yourself at a disadvantage.

Fusu was about to take off the crown on his head, put it on the ground, and said: "Father, my son is guilty, please punish Father."

Fusu's answer in this way was beyond Yingzheng's expectations. In Yingzheng's conjecture, Fusu should try his best to refute it!But why have these charges been admitted?

"Fusu, what do you mean by that?"

Fusu knelt on the ground and said: "It is said that "the ruler wants the minister to die, the minister has to die, the father wants the son to die, the son has to die. "For the public, the father is the first emperor who has made great contributions for thousands of years, and the son is just an insignificant courtier. In private, the father is the father of the son. No matter whether it is public or private, what the father said is true. Yes."

"Therefore, if the father wants the son to commit suicide, the son will immediately commit suicide in front of the father, but the son only asks the father to be able to make a clear decision." After finishing speaking, Fusu bowed heavily on the ground.

Beads of sweat emerged from Fusu's forehead. This sentence, when the king and minister die, the minister has to die, and the father wants the son to die, the son has to die. the point.

Fusu plagiarized it decisively. This sentence should be extremely lethal to Yingzheng. He completely handed over the initiative to Yingzheng.

Life and death are all in Yingzheng's mind, it is impossible for Fusu to say that he is not nervous.

However, this is the only way Fusu can think of at the moment. Only by telling Ying Zheng that he is not a threat to him at all can he dispel the doubts in his heart, and then slowly plot.

After listening to Fusu's words, Ying Zheng fell into deep thought, his eyes wandered back and forth on Fusu and Zhao Gao beside him, and finally said: "Fusu, raise your head."

"Tell me, you obviously only need half an hour to come here to meet me, why did it take two hours?" Ying Zheng stared at Fusu with eagle eyes, putting great psychological pressure on Fusu.

If it was in the past, the might of the emperor shown by Yingzheng really made Fusu breathless, but now, after a long time of training, his mentality has become very calm, Fusu said: "Father, my son is indeed I received the order from my father half an hour ago, and immediately rushed to the palace without any delay."

Yingzheng frowned, and immediately understood, but Yingzheng still pressed the matter temporarily, and said to Fusu: "Fusu, I will punish you to stay at home for three months, and you are not allowed to go out without my order. convinced?"

"My son bows down to thank the emperor." Fu Su immediately bowed.

After Fusu left, Ying Zheng fixed his eyes on Zhao Gao and asked, "Zhao Gao, do you know what crime it is to alienate the family from the Tian family?"

Zhao Gao knelt down immediately, and Zhao Gao never thought about Fusu's handling method. Originally, if Fusu defended, according to Yingzheng's suspicion, it would put Fusu in a disadvantageous situation, but Fusu simply put After admitting all the crimes, Yingzheng felt that Fusu had no such intentions at all.

Zhao Gaodao: "Your Majesty, this servant is just reporting to His Majesty some of the people's situation truthfully. This servant has never thought of alienating His Majesty's family. This servant is absolutely loyal to His Majesty. Please give your Majesty a lesson."

"Oh?" Ying Zheng sneered, and said, "Who is going to call Fu Su to come to the palace?"

Han Tan cupped his hands at the side and said, "It's Zhang Chang. The servants have already cross-examined them in detail. Zhang Chang first went to the Huanxuan (toilet) after eating a stomachache. I got itchy for a while, and I participated in it, so it was too late."

"May I ask His Majesty how to deal with it?" Han Tan asked cautiously.

Ying Zheng snorted coldly, and said impatiently: "What else can I do? Kill him with a stick."

After speaking, Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao again, and said, "Zhao Gao, in recognition of your loyalty, I will give you twenty sticks and a hundred gold as a punishment."

"My servant, thank you Your Majesty." Before leaving, Zhao Gao glanced at Han Tan gratefully.

"What's the situation in the palace now? Gambling has actually come to the palace." Ying Zheng said with a gloomy expression, "Han Tan, you did a good job this time, I'll leave it to you to clean up the palace. "

"No." Looking at Ying Zheng's appearance, Han Tan immediately understood and withdrew all the eunuchs and guards from the palace.

Ying Zheng was alone in this hall, raised his head, looked at the beam above his head, his eyes became deep.

Even without Zhao Gao's words, Ying Zheng was already planning to find an opportunity to punish Fusu. This time, Zhao Gao allowed him to go along with the flow and fulfill his wish.

The reason why Yingzheng did this was precisely to protect Fusu. Since returning from Hedong County, Yingzheng had been looking for such an opportunity, and the reason for everything was because of the school that Fusu proposed at the dinner that day.

Yingzheng could feel that Feng Quji's people had become restless since they heard the news. In order to promote the school and at the same time appease Feng Quji's old nobles, they could only be wronged and helped Su.

In the 34th year of Qin Shihuang, Yingzheng issued an order to burn books.And that time,
The reason was that Chunyu Yue mentioned the enfeoffment system again at the banquet.

On the surface, it seems to be to unify ideology and culture, but in fact, how can the actions of politicians be so simple and easy to understand?During the period before and after the book burning order, Feng Quji and the old nobles who strongly supported the enfeoffment system had become restless.

The book burning order is actually a pacification and bribe for them, because the world of Daqin still needs the support of people like Feng Quji. In the past, these people were also the most steadfast force behind his Yingzheng. As stable as Mount Tai, he can drastically integrate Qin's internal forces, then march to the six kingdoms of Shandong, and finally sweep the six kingdoms and dominate the world.

And precisely because of the unification of the world, the reason why these people strongly supported Yingzheng at the beginning was that they hoped that after the unification of the world, they could share the fruits of victory as heroes and old minions, and thus crack the soil and become the king.

It can be said that success and defeat here, Yingzheng still can't move these people, Yingzheng can feel that the entire empire is not peaceful, and the forces of the six countries hidden underground are about to move. It's not difficult to uproot them, but at that time, who can deal with those resurgent Six Kingdoms?

Even if he wins, Daqin will have to pay a heavy price for this, which is not what Yingzheng wants to see.

Considering all kinds of pros and cons, Ying Zheng finally chose to woo and compromise. He only hoped to buy some time and give himself a few more years, then such a disaster would not exist.
