Ran Fang was the first to react. He looked at Ying Zheng and Li Si at the door with smiles in his eyes.
"Aren't you two old friends?"
"Why do you look so surprised when you see each other?"
Ying Zheng glanced at Li Si lightly, with an expression of sudden realization on his face.
Immediately, he turned around and explained to Ran Fang with a smile: "I didn't expect to see Brother Li here, but it was just a surprise."
"Since we're here, let's sit down and chat together."
Seeing Ying Zheng being so polite, Li Si reacted instantly and sat next to Ying Zheng with a smile. The expression on his face looked very relaxed, without any psychological burden at all.
"I really didn't expect to see Brother Su here."
As he spoke, he looked at Ran Fang, put the basket in his hand on the table, and said with a smile: "This is specially given to Mr. Su. Since Brother Su is here today, let's taste it together."
He took out the things in the basket and found the newly cooked beef. It was full of fragrance when he smelled it.
Li Si looked at Ran Fang with a smile, and pushed the beef forward very politely, but this smile was completely different from the smile he saw Ying Zheng just now.
Fusu, who was standing there at the moment, didn't know how to express his feelings, but he didn't dare to say anything. He could only try to reduce his presence as much as possible.
Ran Fang, on the other hand, glanced at the beef on the table, put it in his mouth and tasted it slowly without delay.
"Not bad, it tastes better than last time."
"Uncle Su, let's try it too."
Ying Zheng was not polite and followed Ran Fang's example of eating it directly with his hands.
Watching the two of them eating, Li Si asked seemingly casually, "I wonder what you two were talking about just now? It sounds like it is related to the recent corruption case?"
"The result of this corruption case has been reached. Do you think there is something fishy about this matter?"
This question was obviously meant for Ran Fang. In fact, he wanted Ying Zheng to hear Ran Fang's opinion. He also wanted to hear Ran Fang's opinion on Zhao Gao.
Ran Fang had been staring at Li Si and Ying Zheng, and he could clearly feel the difference in aura between the two people.
He saw that Li Si glanced at Ying Zheng involuntarily during the questioning, and he became more guessing.
However, he didn't show anything at this moment. He just said calmly: "The corruption case has nothing to do with me, so naturally I don't take it to heart."
"Not enough. Uncle Su asked just now, what does this corruption case have to do with Zhao Gao?"
"Oh?" Li Si looked a little confused in his eyes and asked Ran Fang in surprise, "Is that so?"
Having said that, Li Si's guess became firmer. It was not that he did not doubt Zhao Gao, but that he had deep suspicions about Zhao Gao. That's why he did not issue an order to investigate Zhao Gao when he was in Zhangtai Palace.
However, now that Ying Zheng is here, he has no choice but to say this.
"What do you think, sir?"
This time no one interrupted, Ran Fang continued the topic that Ying Zheng had just asked: "Your Majesty has the courage to outwit the six countries, how can you not see through Zhao Gao's mind?"
"Zhao Gao can be so high-profile this time, I am afraid that His Majesty is behind it, otherwise he will offend all forces at once, and Zhao Gao will have to think carefully about it."
"If you want to destroy it, you must first make it crazy. Therefore, in this corruption case, His Majesty wants not only Zhao Gao's madness, but also the liquidation of all the forces in the DPRK."
"As far as I know, a total of more than sixteen people have been brought to justice in this corruption case. Except for Lian Liangcai, there are more or less other people behind them. So the people who are working for them this time, especially for them The person who intercedes must be someone related to it."
"When the time comes, Your Majesty will ask someone to re-investigate. If there is no corruption, then it means they know where their thoughts are?"
"If it's corruption, wouldn't it be a good idea to arrest it?"
"As for Zhao Gao, his corruption case is a desperate attempt. When it is discovered that it was an unjust case, he will either find a way to get His Majesty's forgiveness, or he will have no choice but to escape."
"After all, he must have a lot of power in the court. Ministers in the court, such as Li Si, have a very good relationship with Zhao Gao. If Zhao Gao avoids this incident, he may join Li Si in executing him in the future. Fu Su, let Hu Hai ascend the throne."
Ran Fang just said that it was possible. After all, he came to Daqin now. He didn't know if the fate of Daqin would change because of his arrival.
But what he said was possible, but if it fell into the ears of those present, it was not possible.
Especially Li Si, he didn't expect that the topic would fall on him. He turned his head and glanced at Ying Zheng, feeling as flustered as ever before.
Ying Zheng's scrutinizing eyes happened to be looking at him as well, which made him even more confused.
"Sir, where did this come from?"
"As far as I know, the Prime Minister is loyal to His Majesty and to Da Qin. How could he collude with Zhao Gao?"
Ran Fang smiled lightly and said casually: "This is true, Li Si is loyal to His Majesty and Da Qin."
"But when Li Si's interests conflict with Great Qin's interests, will he continue as before?"
"Who doesn't have selfish motives? Who can say with certainty what will happen in the future?"
"Isn't it?"
In this case, Li Si had nothing to say.
But this incident also reminded him that he must win over His Majesty when doing things in the future. If His Majesty has a grudge against him because of this matter, then the matter will not be easy to deal with.
This time he came to Xianyang Prison just to know whether His Majesty would take action against Zhao Gao. Now that he knew His Majesty's attitude towards Zhao Gao, he felt a lot more relieved.
"Hahaha, what sir said is absolutely true."
"However, I do believe that the Prime Minister's loyalty to His Majesty and to Da Qin will remain unchanged!"
After saying that, he stood up and saluted Ying Zheng and Ran Fang, bent down slightly and said, "I just came here to deliver some food to you sir today. Now that the things have been delivered, I will leave first."
"You two, let's chat."
After saying that, he turned and left.
When I left, I was still thinking about how to win back His Majesty's heart.
Ying Zheng, on the other hand, looked at Li Si leaving without any expression.
After a while, he said: "Young Master sees things very clearly. The only constant law in this world is change."
These words made Ran Fang couldn't help but look at Ying Zheng a few more times.
I think this person is also a thorough person, but I didn't find it in my previous conversations with him.
"Hahaha, what Uncle Su said is true, it is indeed the truth."
"If Your Majesty could understand this, I'm afraid he wouldn't pursue the so-called immortality."
"After all, everyone is mortal. Even if His Majesty is the emperor for eternity, he cannot escape this theorem."
This time Ying Zheng did not follow his words, he was still very concerned about this matter.
Ran Fang did not look at his expression and continued: "Life and death also change. If someone is dead, but his life's achievements are still alive in people's hearts, how can we say he is dead?"
"This life and death is just a matter of a thought. It may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather."
"Do what you should do and maximize your awareness of life. Why bother worrying about life and death?"
"Uncle Su, what do you think?"
Ran Fang's words fell deeply into Ying Zheng's heart.
He has been pursuing the art of immortality and wants to lead the development of Great Qin for thousands of years. But if he can achieve the ultimate goal of Great Qin now, why should he fear life and death?
Either heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather, this is the meaning of life.
"Thank you sir for your advice. These words have entered my heart and I am really enlightened."
