Chapter Thirteen Fusu
"Why doesn't the Prime Minister go?" Zhang Han asked.
Logically speaking, this is a great achievement. Why should Li Si give all the credit to himself? This is unreasonable.
Li Si sighed and said: "You have forgotten. Mr. just said that I was one of the accomplices of the Qin Dynasty. Fortunately, Your Majesty did not go into details. But at this time, if I say so much in front of Your Majesty, it will only make the picture darker and darker. It is better to leave it to you." go.
As the chief manager of the Black Dragon Guard, His Majesty has great trust in you and can definitely stop this matter. If you can't do it, just say it was sir.
Your Majesty now fully believes what you said. "
"Okay, I'll go to Xianyang right now." Zhang Han said.
Regardless of whether this matter is true or not, nothing can happen to the eldest son, and Qin II must not ascend the throne and proclaim himself emperor, otherwise he will also end up dead.
On the other side, after Ying Zheng returned to the palace, he went directly to the palace where Xu Fu lived.
"See your Majesty." Meng Tian saluted immediately when he saw the First Emperor coming.
"No need to be polite, you come in with me." Ying Zheng said.
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Meng Tian pushed open the palace door.
When Xu Fu saw the palace door opened and knew that Ying Zheng was coming, he immediately stepped forward and knelt at Ying Zheng's feet.
"See Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng sneered and said: "Xu Fu, I came back with the golden elixir. Someone told me that these golden elixirs are poisonous. Do you think these golden elixirs are poisonous?"
"Your Majesty, how could the golden elixir be poisonous? There must be someone who is deceiving the public with their evil deeds and trying to prevent His Majesty from becoming immortal. He does not want His Majesty to live forever and the Qin Dynasty will last for eternity." Xu Fu said hurriedly.
The golden elixir cannot be poisonous, and even if it is true, he will never admit it.
Ying Zheng sneered and said: "You said that the golden elixir is not poisonous, so I will reward you with it.
I ask you to lead three thousand boys and girls to the sea to find the elixir of immortality, and then I will order the soldiers to let you eat all these elixirs. "
The first half of the sentence made Xu Fu very happy and he was free. The second half of the sentence made him feel as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Your Majesty, you can't. This golden elixir was specially refined by your Majesty. It can only be taken by your Majesty. If others take it, not only will they not be blessed, but they may also attract heavenly punishment. Please think twice, your Majesty."
"I have made up my mind. You don't need to say anything. I will let you go to sea tomorrow. By the way, your whole family will accompany you to sea." Ying Zheng said.
"Your Majesty, no." Xu Fu was completely panicked.
This is someone who has been stabbed a thousand times and said that the golden elixir is poisonous. The First Emperor was fine after taking the golden elixir for so long. How could it be poisonous?
"Hmph, I have made up my mind. You don't have to say anything. You should think about how to help me obtain the elixir of immortality."
Ying Zheng bit the words "Elixir of Life" very seriously.
After that, no matter what Xu Fu said, no matter what the immortal said, Ying Zheng seemed to have become determined after eating a weight and ignored Xu Fu.
This has never happened.
In the past, no matter what Xu Fu asked for, Ying Zheng would satisfy Xu Fu.
After leaving the palace, Ying Zheng ordered Meng Tian to gather all the alchemists he had captured and tell the people of the world that the First Emperor would kill all the alchemists and not allow the people of the world to mention the elixir of life again.
In a large house in Xianyang City.
A group of Confucian scholars were discussing one thing, which was to rescue the captured Confucian scholars.
The leader was Dr. Chun Yuyue of Qi State.
Chunyu Yue was once an official of the Qin Dynasty, but when Yingzheng held a banquet for his ministers, he asked the First Emperor to abolish the system of prefectures and counties and restore the feudal system.
Many fiefdoms were established and awarded to the princes and meritorious sons of the powerful.
This caused the First Emperor to become furious and directly dismissed Chunyu Yue from his official post.
Chunyu Yue still refused to give up, so he took refuge with the young master Fusu, and then instilled his thoughts into the young master Fusu.
In this regard, Chun Yuyue was very successful, and the young master Fusu perfectly inherited Chun Yuyue's ideas.
However, the First Emperor always wanted to live forever and put Legalism into practice, so Confucianism never had a chance.
Fusu also often made the First Emperor angry, which led to him being demoted to Chang'an. This also made Fusu unable to recover from the fall, and he was forced to commit suicide by a fake edict.
Because the First Emperor valued alchemists, Fusu and others came up with a plan: Confucian scholars pretended to be alchemists, and then said some good things to the Confucian scholars in order to get some benefits.
But now these Confucian scholars pretending to be alchemists have been caught.
"My eldest son, now you are the only one to ask your Majesty to let those Confucian scholars go." Chunyu Yue said.
Fusu nodded and said: "Dr. Chun, please don't worry, I will go and beg my father now."
"Thank you, young master." Chunyu Yue said.
Other Confucian scholars also saluted Fusu and said, "Thank you, young master."
Fusu nodded firmly and said, "Don't worry, everyone, I'll be right back."
Immediately, Fusu got on the prepared carriage and asked the coachman to drive the carriage to the palace.
"Dr. Chun. How confident do you think the eldest son is in this trip?"
Chunyu Yue said: "No matter how confident you are, you still need to give it a try. If you don't try, those Confucian scholars will definitely not be saved."
Not long after Fusu left, Zhang Han arrived.
"Where's the eldest son?"
"I have gone to the palace to see His Majesty."
The guard looked at Zhang Han's service in the black dragon guard and didn't think about it, and directly answered Zhang Han's words.
"One step too late." Zhang Han couldn't help but say.
In the palace, Ying Zheng was already sitting in Xianyang Palace reviewing the memorials. There was a eunuch waiting next to him. He was the famous Zhao Gao.
"Your Majesty, it's a little late. Please take care of yourself." Zhao Gao asked with concern.
Ying Zheng smiled and said, "You still care about me."
"It is the duty of a slave to care about Your Majesty. The better your Majesty's life is, the better your life will be." Zhao Gao said with a smile.
Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Gao with a smile and said, "You just like to tell me the truth."
"My slave just likes to tell the truth." Zhao Gao said with a smile.
"Haha, let me ask you, how is the eldest son?" Ying Zheng asked.
Damn it, why did your Majesty suddenly ask about the eldest young master? Could it be that Your Majesty also wants the eldest son to learn the law from me?
This is not possible. I have just trained the 18th Young Master and he can be used by me, just in case the eldest Young Master comes too.
He made irresponsible remarks in front of the 18th Young Master. What if he doesn't listen to me in the future?
The most important thing is that as soon as the eldest son comes, the 18th son's naughty nature will be known to His Majesty, and I will definitely not be able to escape the responsibility of neglecting my duties.
"Reporting to your majesty, the eldest son is kind and filial. This is a well-known thing." Zhao Gao said.
His answer was very pertinent, and he talked about things that everyone knew. He did not highlight Fusu's advantages, nor did he deliberately belittle Fusu.
Ying Zheng sighed and said, "This Fusu is indeed kind and filial. All the brothers and sisters admire him."
"Your Majesty, the eldest son wants to see you." A eunuch came to Ying Zheng and knelt down.
