Back to Daqin to be Emperor

Chapter 389 Li Si resigns
To Feng Quji, the rewards were not that valuable.

But it was a gift from the emperor, and it was of great significance. Feng Quji immediately thanked him and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En, old minister."

Fusu immediately entered Feng's residence under Feng Quji's guidance. At this moment, Fusu sat on the main seat and glanced at the guests who came.

There were indeed quite a few people who came, most of the nobles in Xianyang had already arrived, but, among them, Fusu did not see anyone from Mengshi and Lisi, which reassured Fusu a lot.

Seeing Fusu sitting on the main seat, many people immediately became more cautious. To them, this was a sudden attack by Fusu, and there were quite a few of them who were so desperate that they were all included. .

Fusu motioned for a glance, Han Tan understood, and immediately understood, he poured a glass of wine for Fusu, Fusu raised the glass and said with a smile: "Everyone, I came here suddenly today, just to celebrate Feng Xiang's birthday, you don't have to worry about it too much." too restrictive."

After drinking the glass of wine, Fu Su stood up and said, "Prime Minister, I still have some things to deal with, so I won't stay any longer."

After finishing speaking, Fusu left Feng's residence by car. At this time, after Fusu's sudden commotion, the atmosphere in Feng's residence suddenly became stiffer. It felt so twisted and uncomfortable.

..................................................................

Compared with Feng's house, which was brightly lit and welcomed by guests, Li's house seemed quite deserted.

For a long time, Li Si's popularity in the court was not very good. On the one hand, he was always planning for Yingzheng, and many reform measures were all from his hands.

Any change naturally involves the division of interests. Even a saint can't do everything, satisfy all parties, and not offend anyone at all.

Since those whose interests were harmed could not shake Qin Ting and these policies, they naturally focused their resentment on Li Si.

Originally, it was better for Li Si to have the support of Ying Zheng, but now, no one knows that Jinshang and Li Si have been at odds for a long time, and their political views are quite different.

Not only that, even the Meng family has many entanglements with the Li family.

Anyone with a little discernment thought that Li Si's prime minister probably hadn't been in office for long.

In Li's house, a few oil lamps were lit in the study. Li Si stood in front of the window in silence, then came to the desk, looked at the letter of resignation in front of him, and finally made up his mind.

Please resign, this matter has actually been lingering in Li Si's mind for a long time.

He is 74 years old this year, and he has reached the age of seventy-four. From the time when he was a small official in Cai Yijie, he made steady progress, and became the prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty. He was under one person and above ten thousand.

That day, in the sand dunes, he was bewitched by Zhao Gao, if Fusu hadn't stopped him in time, he would almost have committed an irreparable mistake.

But Li Si knew that after all, he couldn't serve Fusu the same way he served the late emperor.After all, how can the differences between the two be explained clearly in a few words?

Once the emperor and the courtiers, in the end, Fusu still had to place his own people in the court.

Just like himself, after Yingzheng came to power, he was made the guest minister of Daqin, Ting Wei and even the last prime minister.

Counting the previous kings of the Qin State, but among the Qin kings who have made a difference, which one did not install their own officials in the court?
Duke Xiao served as Shang Yang, King Hui Wen used Zhang Yi, and King Zhaoxiang used Fan Sui. Even the Doubi King Wu Qin who died lifting a tripod ascended the throne, quickly took power, and then drove Zhang Yi back to his hometown and arranged for his confidants.

Li Si knew that, judging from Fusu's previous behavior style, Fusu would never be a monarch willing to be mediocre. For such a monarch, his position as prime minister would be an obstacle to him after all.

Simply, it is better to submit the resignation letter now.

After enjoying the splendor and wealth, what does Li Si have to regret?For the rest of the time, if he could escape completely, return to his hometown, lead the yellow dog with his heirs, chase the cunning rabbit, and enjoy the family happiness, what more could he ask for in life?
That's why he watched with cold eyes what the Feng family did, although it seemed that the Feng family was fine at the moment.

But when Lu Buwei was in his heyday, it was so beautiful. There were three thousand diners under his door. He compiled the book "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" and hung it on the city gate. He threatened that if he could change a word, he would get a thousand gold.

At that time, Lu Buwei still controlled more than half of Qin's army. Which military regime could compete with him?
Does today's Feng family have half the energy of Lu Buwei's heyday?

Therefore, Li Si believes that this power struggle will eventually end with Fusu's victory, and the current situation is just that Fusu has not exerted its strength.

But if Fusu takes action, he must be like the first emperor back then, disintegrating Lu Buwei's forces in an instant.

In other words, it doesn't matter whether he participates or not.

That being the case, why should he get involved?It is better to withdraw at this time.

Outside Li's house, Fusu had already arrived here in a car, looking at Li's house in front of him, there was no aura of wealth and nobility at all, but a bit of purity.

Li Zhan was also taken aback by Fusu's sudden visit, and hurried out to greet him.

After seeing Li, Fu Su said, "Where is the prime minister now?"

Li Zhan bowed immediately and said, "Your Majesty, my father is in the study, so I will send someone to call him..."

Fu Su waved his hand: "No need."

While speaking, Li Zhan was ordered to lead the way, seeing a figure reflected by the oil lamp in the study, Fusu smiled slightly and stepped into it.

Li Si noticed that someone was coming in, looked at the door, saw that it was Fu Su, he was also startled, immediately stepped forward, saluted and said: "Your Majesty, Li Si, greets you."

"Li Xiang doesn't have to be like this." Fu Su smiled slightly, and said: "The night is getting dark, I didn't expect Li Xiang to be at his desk in the study, really..."

Fusu walked to the desk, picked up a memorial in front of him, saw the words on it, and stopped speaking immediately.

Fu Su frowned slightly, and said, "Prime Minister wants to resign?"

Li Zhan was also taken aback when he heard the words, but Fusu was here, but Li Zhan should not talk too much at this moment.

At this time, Fusu finally understood why Li Si had looked like a piece of wood these days, and many affairs in the court had nothing to do with him.

It turned out that I had already moved my mind to retire.

It's just that this is not good news for him. If Li Si is still in the court, at least he can restrain Feng Shi a little bit for him. If Li Si leaves, it means that he needs to spend more energy and move more. More brains to deal with Feng.
