Chapter 11: Exterminated
"Thank you, comrade village chief." Qin An thanked him, "Comrade Li Si, is your ancestor Li Si, the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty?"
"Do you know Li Si?" Li Si asked in shock.
Qin An smiled and said: "How could you not know that if the Qin Dynasty could be destroyed, your ancestor was also one of the accomplices?"
"What?"
Ying Zheng, Li Si and Zhang Han were shocked at the same time.
Li Si immediately said: "Sir, you can't say this nonsense. My ancestor was loyal to Your Majesty. How could he become an accomplice to the destruction of the Qin Dynasty?"
When saying this, Li Si's eyes kept looking at Ying Zheng. In fact, these words were also telling Ying Zheng that I, Li Si, was loyal to the First Emperor and would never become an accomplice to the destruction of the Qin Dynasty.
Ying Zheng asked: "Sir, you said Li Si was an accomplice in destroying Qin. How did he become an accomplice?"
Qin An said: "Of course it is because Li Si helped Qin II ascend to the throne. Without Li Si's help, Qin II would not be able to ascend the throne. If he does not become emperor, Fusu will not die.
If Fusu doesn't die, Qin II may become Fusu. As long as Fusu becomes emperor, Great Qin may not necessarily die. "
"What, Fusu will die?" Ying Zheng was shocked.
Will the eldest son die?
Li Si and Zhang Han were also surprised, but they didn't say it out loud.
Qin An said: "Don't be so surprised, not only Fusu, but also the son and daughter of the First Emperor will be killed by Qin II.
Except for your ancestors, Gongzi Gao, the other sons and daughters of the First Emperor have no descendants at all. "
Ying Zheng's face became very gloomy. Qin An mentioned this matter, but he always thought that Qin II was Fusu and did not expect that there was someone else.
"Sir, how did Fusu die?" Ying Zheng asked.
Qin An replied: "Fusu was poisoned to death by an order issued by Qin II. To be precise, he issued an order in the tone of the First Emperor, forcing Fusu to commit suicide."
And me? And me? I haven't figured out the issue of loyalty yet. Li Si roared in his heart.
Ying Zheng stood up with a livid face and said, "Don't Fusu have any doubts about this fake edict?"
"Fusu didn't, but Meng Tian did. Meng Tian reminded Fusu, but Fusu was disheartened at the time, so he refused to listen and finally committed suicide," Qin An said.
"What do you mean?" Ying Zheng asked.
Qin An sighed and said: "Actually, it was because the First Emperor was very angry with Fusu because of some things, so he demoted Fusu to the border to build the Great Wall and stay with Meng Tian.
Therefore, Fusu was always worried about the fact that he had angered the First Emperor, thinking that the First Emperor no longer liked him, but hated him.
Therefore, a fake edict from Qin II easily made Fusu commit suicide. "
"Stupid, really stupid." Ying Zheng cursed angrily.
Li Feng said: "Fusu is indeed stupid. In fact, the First Emperor is also to blame for this matter. He has always dreamed of immortality.
Thinking that he would never die, he didn't care much about cultivating the next generation of emperors, and was eventually taken advantage of by Qin II. "
Ying Zheng calmed down and said, "Is it really the fault of the First Emperor?"
Li Si and Zhang Han did not dare to speak, so they could only lower their heads and remain silent.
Especially Li Si. At this time, he has not yet gotten rid of the suspicion of being an accomplice in the destruction of Qin.
Qin An said: "Of course it's the First Emperor's fault. Think about it, if the First Emperor's dream of immortality comes true, he can be the emperor for generations to come. What else does he need Qin II for?"
Ying Zheng was immediately embarrassed. He had really thought that as long as he lived forever, there would be no problem with the next emperor, so he didn't pay much attention to the training of his sons.
I didn't think there was anything wrong with it before, but now I know that immortality doesn't exist at all, so it's really my fault for not raising the next generation properly.
Qin An continued: "The reason why Fusu committed suicide is that the First Emperor cannot shirk his responsibility.
As for Li Si, if he is said to be an accomplice, that is because Qin II became Qin II with his help.
Li Si did this just for his own official position and power. He was afraid that after Fusu ascended the throne, the two brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi would be reused, which would affect his future.
Therefore, based on the interest analysis of a caring person, Li Si ruthlessly helped Qin II instead of Fusu.
However, Li Si was not involved in forcing Fusu to death. If he knew about it, he would definitely object. "
"Objection, definitely object." Li Si said immediately.
He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.
What the heck, even if what you are saying is that history will really happen, there is no need for you to say it in front of His Majesty. Do you know how serious the consequences will be?
Ying Zheng rolled his eyes at Li Si and said nothing.
Qin An looked at Li Si and said: "Actually, I am very curious. Li Si was supposed to be exterminated by Qin II, how did your lineage survive.
By the way, it's Li You. History books say that when Li Si was cut in half, the Yi tribe was defeated, but Li You, who was guarding the vital points, was not touched.
But Li You finally died under the rebels of Xiang Yu and Liu Bang, and did not survive. "
"What did you say?" Li Si was shocked, "You said my entire clan was wiped out?"
"Huh?" Ying Zheng made a sound with his nose and looked at Li Si sideways.
Li Si's face turned pale with fright, but he was a smart man and immediately said: "Sir, you said that my entire Li family has been wiped out, then my lineage is not alive and well."
"Maybe it was deliberately arranged by Young Master Gao. It's been two thousand years since this happened. It's hard to tell whether you are of Li Si's lineage or not," Qin An explained.
"This is wrong," Li Si said. "According to what Mr. Li said, Li Si helped Qin II ascend to the throne. Why was his clan exterminated by Qin II?"
Qin An said: "In fact, in addition to focusing on power, Li Si is also devoted to the Qin Dynasty. As the prime minister, he is dedicated to his responsibilities. He often advises Qin II not to just play around and do more things that an emperor should do.
But Qin II didn't listen. Once, Li Si, Feng Quji and other ministers warned him together. This made Qin II very angry, so he arrested Li Si and finally beheaded Li Si and his three clans. "
Li Si was speechless for a while, what the hell, what kind of situation is this? He was exterminated because he advised Qin II to be diligent in government affairs and disturbed Qin II's interest in having fun.
This ending is too frustrating.
Ying Zheng was even more angry and said: "Why does this Qin II only know how to have fun, but doesn't know how to deal with government affairs at all?"
"It would be great if he could handle government affairs, and Great Qin would not have died in the second generation." Qin An said, "However, this was two thousand years ago, so you don't need to pay too much attention."
"Hehehe..." Ying Zheng and the others smiled awkwardly.
Qin An said: "If you want to hear history, I will tell you next time. Now I will show my skills and cook you a delicious meal."
