Yong Temple.
Fusu was in the study thinking about how to get the officials to agree.
at this time.
Wei Sheng came to report, and Zhang Cang asked to see him outside the palace.
Hear the words.
Fusu was stunned for a moment.
He has not communicated with Zhang Cang in the past few months. In the last "Huai County shipwreck" incident, he also knew that he had cheated Zhang Cang badly, and he was really embarrassed to look for it again. Moreover, Zhang Cang had been keeping silent for the past few months. He deliberately avoided contact with himself, and he noticed it.
Therefore, he did not choose to add trouble to Zhang Cang.
But this time, Zhang Cang came to look for him uncharacteristically, which surprised Fusu a little.
This is unusual.
Fusu put down the bamboo slips in his hand and said with a smile: "Xuan."
Wei Sheng agreed and quickly issued the order.
Not long after.
The potbellied Zhang Cang appeared in the side hall.
Fu Su looked intently and saw that Zhang Cang's originally 'round' figure seemed to have become much thicker in the past few months, and the Yintang had even turned slightly black.
Enter the palace.
Zhang Cang said quickly: "Your Highness, Zhang Cang, is here to see you."
"Your Highness is well."
Fu Su fluttered his sleeves and said in a deep voice: "Zhang Cang, I see that your face looks a little gloomy, and your body is much larger than usual. Sweets should be taboo, otherwise I'm worried that your body may be a little bit... Can’t hold on.”
Zhang Cang was startled, his heart warmed, and he said gratefully: "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness. It's just that I only like this food. Without sweets, life will be boring. But I will pay more attention to it in the future."
"Thank you, Your Highness, for reminding me."
See this.
Fusu didn't say much about this. He looked at Zhang Cang and asked curiously: "Why are you free to come to my place today?"
Zhang Cang cupped his hands and said, "I am here to congratulate His Highness."
Fusu chuckled for a lifetime, shook his head and said: "There is no need to say more words of congratulations. I have heard too much in the past few days. With your talent, you will definitely not come here to just give a few compliments. If you are also like that. People like me would no longer avoid me in the first place.”
"Say it."
"What do you mean you came here this time?"
Hear the words.
Zhang Cang smiled awkwardly.
He had never tried to hide what he had done before from Fusu.
It was even done deliberately to show Fusu.
But Fusu pointed it out in person, which still made him slightly embarrassed.
But he also knew that Fusu was just joking and had no dissatisfaction or displeasure.
Zhang Cang bowed and said: "Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from His Highness's gaze. In addition to congratulating His Highness, I came here this time to tell you that Feng Chang came to see me just over half an hour ago."
"Hu Wujing?" Fusu frowned, a little confused as to what this had to do with him. He asked, "What does he want from you?"
Zhang Cang said: "Feng Chang opened the Prince's Mansion for His Highness Zhang Luo."
After hearing Zhang Cang's words, Fusu, who was still calm at first, turned cold and said with cold eyes: "What did you say? He is organizing the opening of the mansion for me? Why did I ever ask him to organize it for me? And why did I ever say I wanted to open a mansion?"
Fusu is no longer what it used to be.
Moreover, after he became the crown prince, he met Ji Heng in private.
Ji Heng also specifically told him not to be too showy, not to do anything that crosses the line, and only to do what he clearly should do and what he can do. As for things that have not been clearly informed by the First Emperor, do not do them, even Don't mention it either.
The closer you are to the center of power, the more you must respect power.
Zhang Cang lowered his head and said no more.
But he was secretly shocked.
I haven't had close contact with Fusu for several months, but I can still feel the clear changes in Fusu. His power seems to be getting heavier and heavier, and he even has a faint aura of calmness and self-power.
Let people not dare to feel contempt.
Fusu glanced at Zhang Cang coldly and quickly understood what was going on.
He snorted coldly and said with a sullen look on his face: "This Hu Wujing is really bold. Relying on his authority as the Crown Prince Fu, he dares to act recklessly. Without telling me, does he still have eyes for me, Fusu?"
"This is really unreasonable."
Swear a few times.
Fusu quickly calmed himself down.
But his face was still ashen.
he knows.
Ji Heng is right.
He is indeed the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, but those meritorious ministers and founding officials of the Qin Dynasty who have not made great achievements think that they are the founders of this huge empire, so how can they really take him seriously?
High power covers the Lord, high power covers the Lord!
Be proud of taking credit and be proud of serving merit.
This is the most common situation between monarchs and ministers.
Hu Wujing's actions were nothing even in Hu Wujing's heart.
It's just his own little willfulness.
Hu Wujing knew that he was the crown prince of the Qin Dynasty, but his outstanding achievements in the past had long blinded the ears and eyes of these heroes, making them confident, even self-righteous, and completely focused on their own interests.
Because they think they deserve it.
They have made great contributions to Da Qin.
Seeing Fusu calm down so quickly, Zhang Cang was even more shocked and confused.
He looked at Fusu deeply, and he was very sure in his heart that the old ministers in the court might have underestimated the prince of Qin. Fusu was no longer what he used to be, and he was no longer the ignorant elder in the past. Young Master.
he's changed!
Fusu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you Zhang Yushi for reminding me, otherwise I might have been kept in the dark."
Zhang Cang shook his head and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, please do not underestimate this matter."
"Your Highness, this should be treated with caution."
Fusu raised his eyebrows and said in confusion: "Oh? Please give Zhang Yushi a clear explanation."
Zhang Cang said: "It doesn't matter whether His Highness is involved or not, but His Highness cannot escape his involvement in the opening of the Prince's Mansion. Even if His Highness did not participate, nor did he instigate Hu Wujing to Fengchang, Hu Wujing did attack the opening of the Prince's Mansion. In the name of this, His Highness will definitely be implicated in the end, no matter how dissatisfied or displeased His Highness is, there should be a positive response."
"Otherwise, if it arouses His Majesty's suspicion, it may have an impact on His Majesty's heart."
Fusu nodded.
What Zhang Cang said is indeed reasonable.
This matter cannot be ignored. As the crown prince, he must have opened the palace for himself. Whether he wants it or not, he cannot get away with it. Even if he continues to indulge, it will only make Hu Wujing more unscrupulous.
In the end, you will only harm yourself.
Fusu said in a deep voice: "Thank you Zhang Yushi for reminding me, Fusu was almost careless."
"I will submit a copy to Your Majesty immediately."
"Explain this matter one by one."
"I, Fusu, have no intention of opening a mansion. This is entirely Hu Wujing's own decision."
"at the same time."
"I will also send someone to order Hu Wujing not to do it again."
After hearing what Fusu did, Zhang Cang shook his head and said, "Your Highness, if you really do this, then you are really making the same mistakes again and again."
"This matter must not be directly related."
"Otherwise it will do too much harm to His Highness."
"Why is this?" Fusu looked puzzled.
It was Zhang Cang who told him about this matter. Why did he stop himself from writing this matter to the First Emperor now?
Zhang Cang said: "Your Highness is a little too underestimated."
"I am aware of His Highness's situation and have not been persuaded by Feng Chang, but what about the other officials in the court?"
"They may not."
"If these people are convinced, wouldn't His Highness's actions betray these people?"
"Whether these people have selfish motives or really want to get close to His Highness, they are indeed on His Highness's side. Your Highness's current memorandum will implicate most of them. When the time comes, Your Highness His prestige in the DPRK may take a huge blow."
"How can this be a good thing for Your Highness?"
Fusu's expression changed slightly.
He has already reacted.
Zhang Cang added: "This is the brilliance of Hu Fengchang."
"His Highness has never been mentioned from the beginning to the end, but he has been doing things under the banner of His Highness. If His Majesty finally agrees to open the palace, he will be able to occupy a high position openly, and these courtiers are all won over by Hu Wujing, and they will Being closer to Hu Wujing, if His Majesty is dissatisfied, those courtiers will not blame Hu Wujing, but most likely they will blame His Highness."
"I think His Highness betrayed them."
"No matter from which perspective, Hu Wujing will not be affected too much in the end. On the contrary, His Highness will be deeply harmed, and it will even deepen the courtiers' distrust of His Highness, and even cause His Majesty's dissatisfaction."
"It's so important, how can your Highness underestimate it?"
Fusu's heart trembled.
He didn't think too much ahead.
I just thought that since I didn't do it, I would just tell His Majesty the truth. But after hearing Zhang Cang's words, I suddenly woke up. Now that he had changed his identity, he had to think more about the situation in the court.
You can't just think about yourself.
If he blindly cherishes his feathers and punishes officials who originally wanted to get close to him, it will have an extremely bad impact on his future influence in the court.
Think of this.
Fusu's eyes became even colder.
He clearly had no involvement in anything, yet he ended up having to deal with this mess.
Moreover, this was entirely caused by Hu Wujing, and now he was somewhat restrained, which made Fusu quite angry.
He looked at Zhang Cang, bowed and said, "How dare you ask Zhang Yushi to help Su out of trouble."
He also understood now.
This matter must be handled with caution. If it is not handled well, it will easily cause trouble for oneself. It seems that it is not easy to handle it well, but Zhang Cang took the initiative to find it this time, so he must have a solution in mind.
Zhang Cang pondered for a moment and pretended to be mysterious: "There is actually a way."
"That is, I will submit a letter directly to His Majesty."
"Please open the mansion!"
Hear the words.
Fusu's face changed slightly, and he shook his head quickly and said: "This is absolutely impossible. I am still clear about my talents. How can I have the ability and energy to preside over a small court? Please don't mention this suggestion again."
Zhang Cang was not surprised by Fusu's veto.
What Fusu said was not true.
It's just that His Majesty didn't speak, he didn't dare to have an idea.
However, the two of them knew this well and did not try to point it out. Zhang Cang touched his chin and said with a smile: "Your Highness, you may have misunderstood. I didn't mean to open the Prince's Mansion, but something else." House', some affairs house."
"Although Hu Fengchang is making plans in the name of His Highness, he does not dare to blatantly say that he is opening the Prince's Mansion."
"So there is room for maneuver."
"His Royal Highness can apply to His Majesty to be responsible for a matter, and then in order to accumulate administrative experience, open another affairs office. The main function is to be responsible for this matter. When the matter is almost handled, he can ask for an order from His Majesty to turn this affairs office into a new one. Disbanded.”
"In this way, this incident was calmed down quietly."
"No trouble up and down."
Hear the words.
Fusu's eyes lit up.
This is indeed a way.
Just like the last "Guan Shan Hai", it is just a temporary "special government". When the matter is resolved, the officials of the major government agencies will return to their respective official positions. This will not only solve the difficult problems they will face, but also Let Hu Wujing really do things for him. In addition, through this move, he also indirectly negated the idea of opening the Prince's Mansion.
Even better.
I really have something important to do right now.
Think of this.
Fusu was also excited.
He looked at Zhang Cang and said with joy on his face: "Zhang Yushi's words really turned the clouds and made people enlightened. I know what to do. Thank you Zhang Yushi for your guidance this time. If it hadn't been for Zhang Yushi's help, I would have lost my mind." It’s really a mistake.”
Fusu praised Zhang Cang repeatedly.
Zhang Cang smiled and stroked his beard, his eyes looking quite proud.
He deliberately kept a certain distance from Fusu in front of him. Although Fusu didn't seem to care, he couldn't help but care. Therefore, it was the right way for Zhang Cang to show his abilities appropriately.
Especially Fusu has now been established as the crown prince.
In order to avoid unnecessary rifts, it would be more beneficial to me to lower my profile and make friends with Fusu.
Why not do it?
Zhang Cang thinks very low of himself.
He has an understanding of Fusu and a proper friendship with him. For him, there are only advantages and no disadvantages. He also has self-awareness. Compared to Ji Heng, he still considers himself inferior, so he will not speak easily about big political affairs. , but he was still able to speak appropriately for some things within his ability. He never thought about comparing himself with Ji Heng, and he couldn't compare with him.
Zhang Cang said: "Your Highness, this matter should be resolved as soon as possible to avoid long nights and endless dreams."
Fusu nodded.
Naturally, he knew the importance of it.
He nodded and said: "I really have something important to do, but I didn't announce it to the outside world before, and only disclosed it to a few courtiers from beginning to end. Just after listening to Zhang Yushi's words, I suddenly realized , a person’s power is always limited.”
“Sometimes it’s just a matter of teamwork.”
"If I want to apply for an office, would Zhang Yushi be willing to join it?"
Fusu looked at Zhang Cang eagerly.
Zhang Cang's face was solemn, and he quickly raised his hands and said: "Your Highness invites you, how dare I refuse?"
"Haha." Fusu laughed loudly and said with a smile: "With Zhang Yushi's words, I feel relieved. I will write to His Majesty what I will do in the next two days, and Zhang Yushi will be allowed to enter at that time. in."
Hear the words.
Zhang Cang felt an inexplicable thump in his heart.
An ominous premonition suddenly appeared in his heart.
He secretly cheered himself up in his heart. Now that Fu Su was the new crown prince, there would be nothing important. But then, he suddenly thought of the origin of Fu Su as the crown prince, and his expression changed.
Oops!
Zhang Cang screamed in horror in his heart.
He suddenly remembered that the prince Fusu had arrived very suddenly. At that time, he secretly guessed that His Majesty and Fusu were planning something secretly. He just wanted to prevent Fusu from caring about him, so he patted his head. coming.
This time I might have bumped into him on my own initiative!
Zhang Cang's face was pale, his lips were trembling, and he said tremblingly: "May I ask, Your Highness, what has His Highness been worrying about recently? It shouldn't be a big deal, right?"
Go, go, go!
The big chapter update will officially start tomorrow.
Yesterday, it was because Zhang Cang didn't have a good idea. There were problems with the solutions he had thought of before. He changed it several times and it was very awkward. He changed it again and again, and finally it was not released.
After thinking about it for a while today, I finally got the answer.
(End of chapter)
