It has been three to five days since the secret memorial was submitted, but Li Si has still not received a reply. ∈八∈八∈Read∈Book,.≦.o≧
Li Si was very surprised. He was deeply trusted by Ying Zheng. Ying Zheng always obeyed the suggestions he made in the past. Why was there no news this time?
Just when Li Si was restless, a young eunuch came to the door.
Li Si was overjoyed and quickly welcomed the young eunuch home.
The young eunuch saluted Li Si and said, "Your Majesty ordered your servant to come."
Li Si nodded repeatedly, thinking: I naturally know that His Majesty asked you to come. It must be my memorial that makes His Majesty very happy, so he should give me some praise.
However, the young eunuch did not say any praise, but smiled slightly: "Your Majesty ordered your servant to ask, Lord Tingwei, does he have any children?"
Li Si was stunned and said, "Of course he has children."
Obviously, Ying Zheng had expected this answer, so the young eunuch immediately said: "Your Majesty also asked the servant to ask, are the children in Lord Tingwei's family preparing to take the imperial examination?"
Li Si hesitated: "This..."
The young eunuch added: "Your Majesty said that as an important minister of the imperial court, Tingwei can naturally recommend his children to become officials in the court. He does not avoid relatives when promoting talents, and your majesty also understands. I also heard that Mr. Tingwei has made an appointment with the Prime Minister. Mr. Tingwei recommends. The prime minister’s children, the prime minister recommends the children of Tingwei, so that the children can enter the court, and the adults will be good-looking."
Cold sweat started to flow from Li Si's head: Your Majesty, what does this mean?
He was not afraid that Ying Zheng would see through his tricks, after all, civil and military officials throughout the dynasty were doing such things. What he was afraid of was, why did His Majesty suddenly say this? What's the purpose?
Seeing Li Si's pale face, the young eunuch comforted him in a low voice: "Don't worry, Ting Wei. Your Majesty has no other intentions."
Li Si wiped the cold sweat on his head: "Does your Majesty have any other instructions?"
The young eunuch said seriously: "Your Majesty said that even if the children of Tingwei do not need to take the imperial examination, it is best for them to learn common sense, literature, arithmetic, and policy theory. It will be of great benefit to themselves and the country."
Li Si nodded in agreement.
The young eunuch added: "Your Majesty said that Shangjun Academy was opened today in Shangjun Courtyard. Famous teachers are invited to teach the students, which is quite effective. Many scholars study here, which can not only increase their knowledge, but also is a good place. . Lord Tingwei, why don’t you send your disciples?”
"When you arrive at Shangjun Academy, you will have a serious experience and experience. The things that were confusing in the past will be understood. The misunderstandings in the past can also be solved. Seeing is believing, and it is better than catching wind and shadow."
Li was stunned for a moment.
The young eunuch bowed and said, "Master Tingwei, your Majesty's words are over here."
Li Si thanked the young eunuch blankly and sent him out.
Li Si stood at the door, confused in his heart: "What does this mean? Your Majesty asked me to send my children to Shangjun Academy? What is the purpose?"
Li Si thought for a while, and finally told the housekeeper to prepare a car immediately and go to Wang Wan's mansion.
Li Si and Wang Wan discussed for a full hour, and finally they felt that Li Si's secret trick worked.
After reading the secret report, His Majesty has already become suspicious of Shangjun Academy, but there is no conclusive evidence, so it is difficult to take action against the academy. Therefore, he needs someone to break into the academy, obtain some information, and collect some evidence...
At this point in the discussion, Li Si and Wang Wan were both excited and gearing up.
No matter how many people came forward, they could not shake Huaiguzi. Unexpectedly, Tingwei just sent a secret memorandum, which made His Majesty suspicious of Huaiguzi. ▲≥eight▲≥eight▲≥read▲≥book,.√.≧o
Wang Wan and Li Si thought happily: We are important ministers of the country after all. Unlike others, His Majesty naturally values us very highly.
Finally, Wang Wan and Li Si discussed some details. In the end, the two people felt that it was best not to reveal their identities when sending their children into Shangjun's courtyard, so as not to arouse Huaiguzi's vigilance and get nothing in the end.
Li Si had an eldest son named Li You, who had obtained an official position a few years ago. It was naturally inappropriate for him to enter Shang Jun's Courtyard. Fortunately, Li Si also has a young son named Li Yu, who is only fifteen years old. This Li Yu is very quiet and quiet. He has always stayed in the house and has never appeared in public. Very few people know him. It is most suitable for him to come forward.
After the two discussed it, Li Si went back happily.
In order to avoid long nights and dreams, Li Si ordered his family to send Li Yu to Shangjun Courtyard that day. It’s just that the enrollment quota is full and Shangjun Villa will not accept students.
Li Si had no choice but to ask around. After turning many corners, he finally found a man named Scalper, who was said to have connections.
Finally, with the help of scalpers, Li Si spent ten times the price, and Li Yu finally enrolled in school.
Of course, although Li Yu's name has not changed, his identity has. He lied that he was the son of a rich man named Li near Xianyang, rather than the young son of Lord Tingwei.
After completing this matter, Li Si breathed a sigh of relief. It hurts to think that so much money has been wasted. But he also thought that if he could overthrow Huaiguzi and help Fu Yao ascend to the throne, the rewards would be huge.
Li Shui didn't know about Li Si's son entering school. In fact, he did act as the shopkeeper and didn't care much about the affairs of the academy. He is currently busy collecting signatures.
Recently, Li Shui and his people went door to door in Xianyang City, visited every courtier, and asked them to write down their names and aphorisms.
Li Shui explained: He felt more and more that he had read too little and his level was too low, so he wanted to study hard. I want to follow the example of all of you talented adults. These aphorisms are to be framed and hung in the study.
Everyone agreed to Li Shui's request. There was no other reason, because it was rare for everyone to see Li Shui be so polite, and of course they wanted to experience the feeling of being complimented by an immortal.
Within three days, Li Shui collected everyone's handwriting, then took out the memorial from that day and began to check the notes one by one.
Half an hour later, he took pictures of several cases: "It turns out to be this old dog named Li."
This loud shout startled Li Xin, and he spilled half of the wine in his glass.
Li Xin said with some dissatisfaction: "Brother Huai, who are you scolding?"
Li Shui was stunned for a moment and said: "I was scolding Li Si. Alas, there are too many people named Li in our Daqin, and they were accidentally injured."
Li Xin walked over with a wine glass in hand and asked, "Has the person who wrote the secret memo to His Majesty been found out?"
Li Shui nodded: "I found out, it's Li Si. These courtiers are determined to kill me."
Li Xin asked curiously: "What are you going to do?"
Li Shui thought for a while and said: "There is nothing to do, be vigilant and wait and see what happens. After all, this Li Si is a good man in the world, and he is still useful. And his secret play is not to get rid of me, so it is Let’s fight over political opinions.”
Li Xin looked at Li Shui in confusion: "Brother Huai, this is not like you. According to your temper, shouldn't you eradicate the root?"
Li Shui lay on the cases: "I'm tired from fighting and killing all day long."
…………
"Aren't you tired from fighting and killing all day long?" The prefect of Kuaiji looked at Xiang Liang with a wry smile.
The prefect of Kuaiji is named Jufu, and he has just been in office for less than a year. Within this year, many things happened. Sometimes there were rumors about Xiang Liang, sometimes there were thieves making trouble, and sometimes weapons were found from so-and-so's house.
Jufu regrets coming here to take up his post. Chu Di, a troubled place.
After finally waiting for His Majesty to confer the title of king, there was a King of Kuaiji in Kuaiji. As soon as Young Master Gao arrives, Kuaiji County will be divided into two, with one half under the jurisdiction of the county governor and the other half under the jurisdiction of the King of Kuaiji. By then, the pressure on me will not be so great.
However, before Young Master Gao arrived, Xiang Liang suddenly led his men to the mansion, and the shining sword was already placed on the giant's neck.
The giant husband is not necessarily afraid, but he feels very tired. He was already frustrated by Xiang Liang's torment.
Xiang Liang said coldly: "The governor of Wu County has surrendered, what do you say?"
The giant man said: "I should also surrender."
Xiang Liang laughed loudly: "I have conquered the world, just like searching for things in a bag."
Jufu's personal followers were all dismissed, and all the soldiers in the county were incorporated into Xiang Liang's troops. Those who occasionally wanted to resist were all killed.
Seeing this situation, Jufu accepted it. At this time, if you want to go to the court, it is a dead end. It is better to follow Xiang Liang. If you can succeed, you can still gain glory and wealth.
As a result, Jufu, like the governor of Wu County, really surrendered to the enemy.
After capturing Jufu, Xiang Liang asked with a smile: "Ying Zheng once sent an envoy to find out whether this general had conspired to rebel. Where is this person?"
The giant man said: "He is in the post house. If the general wants to take him, I am willing to lead the way."
Xiang Liang waved his hand: "Don't worry, I want you to take care of him and not allow him to leave."
Xiang Yu whispered from the side: "Wang wants us to let the envoy go and spread the news of the rebellion to Xianyang as soon as possible."
Xiang Liang chuckled and said: "We don't have to worry about the Wang family. While the governors and magistrates of the Chu region know nothing about it, we can quietly capture a few cities first. The most important thing is that Ying Zheng The prince of Kuaiji, Prince Gao, is his son. If you can hold this person in your hands, you can command some people."
Xiang Yu's eyes lit up and he nodded with great admiration.
Xiang Liang told his surroundings: "Be careful not to leak the news these days. If you scare Young Master Gao away, I will take your heads off your neck."
His subordinates all responded. Then went to get ready.
…………
Gongzi Gao's chariot has entered the Chu region and reached the boundary of Kuaiji.
Along the way, he was playing chess with Shen Lun. At first, the two people played a game in an hour, and the fighting was very fierce. Later, it took two hours, and now, a game of chess cannot be finished in a day.
This was mainly because as they entered Chu Land, the two of them became more and more nervous and absent-minded, so the game of chess was played in a mess, and no one could kill the other.
Finally, Gongzi Gao couldn't hold on any longer. He pushed the chessboard and said, "Master, now we have entered the realm of Kuaiji. What should we do? I'm afraid Xiang Liang will attack us at any time. How about we master and disciple disguise themselves Dress up and pretend to be a pedestrian. As for the chariot, keep going in the same way."
Shen Lun thought for a moment and said, "No, there is not only the rebel Xiang Liang here, but also countless thieves. If those thieves meet you and me and seek wealth and life, we will definitely die."
Young Master Gao sighed, looking disappointed.
Shen Lun thought for a while and asked the general outside: "Where are we?"
The general said: "It is still fifty miles away from Kuaiji City. We are currently at the foot of Yuewang Mountain."
Shen Lun asked curiously: "Yuewang Mountain?"
The general said: "It is said that Gou Jian, the king of Yue in the past, once stationed troops on this mountain. The terrain of this mountain is dangerous, easy to defend and difficult to attack. It strangles several valleys and overlooks several important roads."
When Prince Gao heard that the mountain was easy to defend but difficult to attack, he was overjoyed and said, "Why don't we set up camp here and build the palace?"
The general was stunned: "On Yuewang Mountain? This... this is not easy. The young master may have to suffer a little."
Young Master Gao said: "What's the point of suffering? It's worth suffering a little for the Qin State."
The general nodded in agreement, and then led the team slowly towards Yuewang Mountain.
At first, Gongzi Gao and Shen Lun could still sit in the carriage, but as the mountain became steeper, they could only get down and walk.
At first, the general was worried that Gongzi Gao would not be able to endure the hardship. Who knew that the more difficult the mountain was, the more excited Gongzi Gao would be, and even burst out laughing.
The general suddenly felt a little emotional, feeling that the King of Kuaiji he was following was no ordinary person.
During the mountaineering process, Gongzi Gao saw the ruins of several camps. They were dilapidated by the wind and rain. They must have been established by Gou Jian.
Prince Gao told the generals to repair the camps immediately to make the mountain stronger.
The general nodded in agreement.
Soon, a group of people climbed to the top of the mountain, then buried pots to make rice and looked for spring water.
In the eyes of the Central Plains people, the Chu land was originally a barbaric land, and the uninhabited Yuewang Mountain was even more barbaric among the barbarians.
Some soldiers began to feel dissatisfied. They are elite soldiers and generals selected by the young master Gao. They thought that when they arrived in Chu land and defended the palace, they would be able to yell at them, but they didn't expect that the young master Gao actually wanted to build the palace here. Isn't this a joke?
The soldiers were dissatisfied, and the group of civil servants who followed the young master Gao were also dissatisfied. In their view, this was a learned man led by a long crown, who had turned into a barbarian who drank blood.
These people had the courage to ask Prince Gao and Shen Lun to abandon Yuewang Mountain and enter Kuaiji City as soon as possible. With the help of the Kuaiji County Sheriff, they established the royal palace.
Unfortunately, this request was flatly rejected by Gongzi Gao. Gongzi Gao even stated that he received the guidance of the banished immortal when he resisted danger in Yuewang Mountain.
After hearing this, the civil servants and generals cursed Huaiguzi. But after the scolding, they didn't have the guts to leave on their own, so they had no choice but to swallow their anger and settle down here.
More than ten days later, the camp was basically completed. Prince Gao and Shen Lun discussed it and decided to send a dead soldier to Kuaiji City to inform the county governor.
According to Gongzi Gao's understanding, this trip is extremely dangerous, because Xiang Liang's assassins may be waiting in the city. For this reason, he prepared a hundred yi of gold and wanted to rely on a heavy reward to find this brave man.
As a result, before he could take out the gold, he only said that he would send someone to Kuaiji City to deliver the message. The soldiers volunteered themselves frantically and almost broke their heads.
The young master stood on the top of Yuewang Mountain, his eyes blurred: "Oh, everyone is drunk and I am sober. Today, this young master finally feels a little bit like an immortal. I must have felt like this from time to time when my uncle looked at the ignorant people in Xianyang City. It’s a sigh of relief.” 11 Go to Baidu to read the latest chapter of “I was a hero in the Qin Dynasty” for free as soon as possible.
