The corners of Li Si's mouth twitched.
Fortunately, he still wanted to come to Peixian County and get in touch with Cao Xiu. The result was good, this boy was so lazy. He also thought that Cao Xiu was quite talented, and the remonstrance contained quotations from scriptures, but even the county governor might not be able to achieve this level.
The result was good, it was written by the emperor!
Wang Jian also had a smile on his face, and then continued. At first they didn't take Cao Xiu seriously, but the more they got in touch with him, the more they realized that he should not be underestimated. Not only was he a little smart, he was also good at farming, which also made the emperor cherish talents.
Of course, Cao Xiu has more shortcomings.
In addition to being greedy for money, he is also a rebel!
"He...he is a rebel?!"
Not to mention Li Si, Zhao Gao was shocked.
Is there such a thing?
When Zhao Gao saw this, he quickly bowed, "Although this person has the merit of saving the enemy, he attempts to commit rebellion, which is a capital crime for the Yi clan. In this case, we will definitely not be allowed to stay!"
He followed the First Emperor for more than 20 years, riding in front and behind the horse. Because he is a close minister, he clearly knows what the emperor's taboos are. Like what Wang Jian said before, they were just minor problems for the emperor.
What is greed for money?
It's a good thing that ministers are greedy for money!
For example, when Wang Jian attacked Chu in the past, in order to offset the emperor's doubts, he begged for all kinds of beauties with gold, jade, fields and homes. In fact, he wanted to let the emperor know that he, Wang Jian, had no objection and only wanted to be promoted and make a fortune and become a rich man.
Qin Shihuang glanced at Zhao Gao coldly.
Just this look scared Zhao Gao to the point where he quickly bowed and did not dare to speak any more. Except for the emperor, no one else could feel this terrifying sense of oppression. Even if you don't speak, you can scare people to death!
Wang Jian smiled at the side and said, "If this is true, then it is just to frighten the enemy. His majesty's plan, which he laid out despite the humiliation and humiliation, will also fall short because of this."·
"Forehead?"
Li Si frowned.
He seemed to understand what the emperor was going to do.
Set a trap and wait for the remnants of the Six Kingdoms to take the bait?
"Now not only is Cao Xiu a rebel, but I and Your Majesty have also become rebels."
"It turns out like..."
Such a ghost!
Li Si was so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head, and he looked at the two of them in bewilderment. He even wondered if the weather was too hot, causing him to hallucinate.
It’s just that Cao Xiu rebelled, but the emperor also joined in the fun and went to rebel? The key is that you always start your own rebellion. Is it possible that you will lead tens of thousands of rebels to attack Hangu Pass in the future?
Li Si knew that the First Emperor's ideas were unique, many of his ideas were unprecedented, and he often made changes. But this time, it’s really serious. Even if you tell this matter, who would dare to believe it?
Tired of being an emperor, now he wants to become a rebel?
Destroying the six kingdoms is not enough, so you want to destroy the seventh kingdom, right? !
Okay, okay, please take your time and play!
This prime minister is not appropriate!
Zhao Gao stood there with his mouth open and couldn't speak for a long time. Hu Hai, on the other hand, was full of surprise and found it quite interesting. Now it seems that the emperor knows more fun than he does, and he still plays like this?
Then, Wang Jian continued to tell. It probably started with Cao Xiu making salt and wine in private, and then Zhao Xie appeared later and mistook the emperor for Zhao Zheng, the son of Dai Wangjia.
"This this……"
"This Zhao Xie is really stupid!"
Li Si shook his head helplessly.
In fact, the main reason was that Qin Shihuang reacted quickly enough. After knowing Zhao Xie's identity, he went along without saying a word. What's more important is that Dai Wangjia wanted to escape Xianyang before, but Zhao Zheng fell off a cliff and died. Qin Shihuang knew all these things. Taking advantage of the information gap, Zhao Xie was naturally deceived. It's not that Zhao Xie is stupid, but that he met Qin Shihuang.
Wang Jian smiled and said, "Actually, Cao Xiu originally planned to continue to lie dormant and secretly hoard food to develop his power. The result was good, but Zhao Xie said that after discussing with the rebels, he would be allowed to leave the seclusion and join the Qin court as an official."
"How can it be so easy?"
Seeing the disdain on Li Si's face, Wang Jian ruthlessly demolished the situation and said calmly: "Didn't the Prime Minister personally order him to be promoted to the second rank and his official title to be a rural coward? Don't forget, he has not yet reached the rank. The most important thing is , he can benefit the world by just plucking one hair this time."
"Does Marquis Wu Cheng really mean what he said?"
"Your Majesty also saw it."
"Um."
Qin Shihuang nodded calmly.
With Cao Xiu's methods, it might be too early to be granted the title of marquis. But within two years, he will definitely become a representative figure of the Qin Dynasty's young faction, and it will be more than enough to join the Qin court as a minister. If he makes more contributions, his official title will only be higher. If the potato was real, he would immediately promote Cao Xiu to the rank of Shangqing!
"..."
Li Si was dumbfounded now.
Fortunately, the emperor had the foresight to discover it early. If he recommends Cao Xiu, after his identity is exposed, he will also be subject to the method of sitting together. Li Si became angrier the more he thought about it, why was his life so miserable?
At first he recommended his junior brother Han Fei to join the Qin Dynasty, but he died in Yunyang because he was devoted to Han. Later, he recommended Zhang Cang, his fellow disciple, as the censor. As a result, this guy broke the law again and used his name to carry a bucket and run away.
Finally found a young and capable official. He was about to contact and recommend him. He thought he would have a helper in the future, but it turned out that tnd was a rebel? !
"For so many years, the six kingdoms have made no progress." Qin Shihuang stood with his hands behind his hands and said disdainfully: "In the past, he ordered Zheng Guo to intervene in an attempt to weaken Qin and save Han, but in the end he helped Qin destroy the six kingdoms. The same is true for Cao Xiu... As long as With him as his son, we can uncover all the rebels from the Six Nations hiding in the dark. Besides, his abilities are quite outstanding, and I will continue to discover them slowly."
To the First Emperor, Cao Xiu was a living treasure young man. Regardless of any trouble, he can solve it easily as long as he takes action. How could you be willing to let him die without emptying out the ink in his stomach?
"I understand."
Li Si immediately raised his hands and bowed.
He was able to write such a famous piece as "Book of Remonstrance and Chasing Guests" that has been praised throughout the ages. Naturally, he was also well versed in the art of employing people. According to Wang Jian, Cao Xiu is a typical wallflower. He will seek refuge with whomever he can benefit from. It seems that he joined the Qin court to rebel against Qin, but if Qin's iron barrel is flawless, then he will submit to Qin.
"My property is not produced in Qin, but there are many treasures; my scholars are not produced in Qin, but there are many who want to be loyal." Qin Shihuang paused and continued: "The prime minister once gave advice in the past, and he envoys were among them. The princes and famous people can come down Those who have wealth should be generous with their inheritance. Those who refuse will be stabbed with sharp swords and separated from their rulers and ministers. The same is true for Cao Xiu!"
"Your Majesty, Holy Might!"
Li Si raised his hands and bowed again.
It was obvious that Qin Shihuang cherished talents. He would never give up until every drop of Cao Xiu was squeezed out, so there was no need for him to jump out and object again. Besides, this method is really good. If you make good use of this identity, you can do a lot!
Zhao Gao echoed, "In this case, Your Majesty can tell his true identity now. If he is willing to serve, then keep him, if he doesn't, then..."
However, Qin Shihuang shook his head. This trick is indeed simple and crude, but it does not apply to Cao Xiu. What if he can't accept the truth and runs away secretly? The ink in Cao Xiu's stomach hasn't been emptied yet, so we can't let him run away!
It won't be too late to talk about it after he is actually instigated to rebel.
"Azheng, Azheng!"
"Niang Xipi's, two big ones are gone?"
"Lao Zhou, take someone to look for you over there!"
Cao Xiu's loud voice came from afar.
Qin Shi Huang immediately frowned and realized something was wrong.
Sure enough, Cao Xiu and Cao Xiu are here!
