Inside the palace.
Fusu bowed respectfully and said, "My son, Fusu, comes to see my father."
Ying Zheng did not raise his head and continued to review the memorial at his desk. It was already noon, but he had no idea of taking a rest.
Fusu took out a memorial from his sleeve and said, "To inform my father, I would like to request an order to open the palace."
The words fell.
The rustling in the hall suddenly stopped.
Fusu panicked and continued quickly: "My minister requested the opening of the Affairs Office. Yesterday, my minister summoned all the ministers to ask for advice on how to solve the long-overdue reward problem of the Qin Dynasty. However, my minister knew that his ability was limited, so he I want to open a temporary affairs office to assist my son in completing this matter."
"Please also ask for your permission, Father."
Finished.
Fusu lowered his head and raised the memorial in his hand.
Ying Zheng raised his head, glanced at Fusu lightly, and waved to the eunuch below. The eunuch immediately understood, ran a few steps, took the memorial, raised it above his head, and presented it to the case respectfully.
immediately.
He walked quickly and left the hall.
In an instant, only the father and son were left in the hall.
At this time.
Fu Sucai continued: "My son had no idea of opening a palace before, but after my son told the court what he was doing, Hu Wujingfeng often worried that his son would be unable to do anything because he was the prince Fu, so he decided to Hu Fengchang took the initiative to open a mansion for his son while he was away. Hu Fengchang was so considerate of his son that he really didn't dare to disappoint him. At the same time, he also remembered his colleagues in the three mansions during the last "Guan Shan Hai", so he wanted to ask for an order to open an affairs office. .”
"Please allow me, Father."
Fusu buried his head very low, his voice trembling slightly.
he knows.
I said the wrong thing before.
Ying Zheng did not respond immediately, but reached out and opened the memorial on the case. After scanning it for a few times, he roughly understood what he was talking about. He nodded and said, "Feng Chang is so concerned about your affairs. I really shouldn't let you down. What we have done is indeed not easy, so it is only natural that we should find people to help us.”
Hear the words.
Fusu's face was filled with joy and he quickly said: "I am grateful."
Ying Zheng nodded and said, "Is there anything else you want to say?"
Fusu pondered for a moment, with a hint of hesitation on his face, and finally decided to speak out, "I want to tell the officials in the affairs office what I want to do."
Ying Zheng’s eyes flickered.
He took a deep look at Fusu, with a rare hint of relief in his eyes.
Ying Zheng said calmly: "As the crown prince, you have full authority to decide this matter. There is no need to ask me for instructions."
"No." Fusu nodded.
My mind was completely relaxed.
"Is there more?" Ying Zheng continued to ask.
Fusu shook his head and said, "My son is fine."
"Father, please pay more attention to rest."
"My son, please retire."
Finished.
Fusu bowed again, then stepped back and left Xianyang Palace.
After Fu Su walked away, Ying Zheng turned over the memorial on the case, with a smile on his lips.
Fusu has really changed.
If it were in the past, Fusu would not have such an overall view, and he would rarely consider it so thoughtfully. He would almost always act on impulse and not care about the consequences and impact. However, this memorial is completely different from the past.
Not only did he explain the whole story, he didn't criticize too much, and he also said good things for Hu Wujing.
at the same time.
He did not betray those officials who were persuaded by Hu Wujing.
Even worse.
These officials were also tested.
This style of doing things is completely different from Fusu's in the past.
And this is the quality that the heir to the empire should have.
Sharp and decisive.
Know how to weigh the pros and cons, and know that everything is focused on the overall situation. You no longer act on impulse, and you will not be affected by emotions. You can even turn passivity into initiative, and gradually turn a situation that was originally unfavorable to you into your own use.
Fusu has really grown up.
Although there is Ji Heng's shadow behind this growth, it is indeed growth.
and.
What Fusu had to do was tricky.
A single move can move the whole body and have a great influence on the world.
In fact, it is not easy for him to intervene.
Fusu's current progress made Ying Zheng feel more at ease, and he no longer worried that Fusu would be unable to resist. From the current point of view, Fusu's response was reasonable and did not cause too many problems.
also.
Fusu's decision to tell the officials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs what he wanted to do was even more clever.
Hu Wujing would never talk about this matter to the outside world, and he must have done it in the name of opening the Prince's Mansion. And the officials he persuaded were basically tempted to enter the Prince's Mansion. If they found out that it was not the Prince's Mansion, they would But if the so-called affairs office still deals with such serious matters, these officials may be scolded by Hu Wujing in their hearts.
finally.
Hu Wujing will only reap the consequences.
In addition, through this move, officials who pretend to cater to him and have double-minded intentions can be screened out, because these officials will definitely have huge headaches and panic when faced with what Fusu wants to do, and they will definitely not dare to touch it.
Those who dare to stay in the Affairs Bureau are the officials who have a sense of responsibility for the empire.
Kill multiple birds with one stone.
He also reversed the situation that was unfavorable to him in one fell swoop.
The method can be described as brilliant.
Ying Zheng closed the memorial and put it aside.
He had no intention of intervening.
He knew very well that after Fusu's methods, Hu Wujing would have a difficult time in the court from now on, and he did not dare to have random thoughts anymore.
That's enough.
the other side.
Out of Xianyang Palace.
Fusu turned around and sighed.
He now understands more and more what Ji Heng said that the closer you get to the center of power, the more you need to know how to respect power.
If you don't go deep into the whirlpool of the court, you have no idea of the darkness, complexity, and weirdness in the depths. If you hadn't gotten some tips from Ji Heng, you might not have realized the key points, nor the importance of the so-called trivial details.
A thousand-mile embankment was destroyed by an ant nest.
That's it.
If Zhang Cang hadn't reminded him this time, he might not have reacted at all.
Or after knowing it, they rush to report it and try to get it out, but in the end they will be tricked.
This time he only faced Hu Wujing, but he almost made a big mistake. And the First Emperor faced more than just Hu Wujing? But the situation faced by the entire court, the entire officialdom, and even the entire world will only become more severe, and the officials will have more thoughts. Even so, the First Emperor rarely had problems with major affairs.
The First Emperor had reigned for more than thirty years, and had he really not killed anyone by mistake? Have you ever forgiven a transgressor?
No!
But the First Emperor was still able to shock the world.
Why?
It lies in the clarity of insight and the accuracy of decision-making.
Rather than the brutality that the world accuses.
Only in this way can the majesty of the First Emperor make the world tremble and prevent the remnants of the six kingdoms from easily showing up.
Fusu sighed softly: "My father repeatedly told me how to gain insight into the overall situation, and he was really well-intentioned. Unfortunately, I was too impulsive at the time and couldn't listen at all. I only believed what I saw and heard. real."
"well."
Fusu shook his head.
The closer he got to the center of power, the more he was in awe of the First Emperor.
He is also more and more ashamed of what he has done in the past.
It's really ridiculous and childish.
soon.
Fusu adjusted his mind.
He looked at the sky and walked towards Hu Wujing's official office.
He wanted to tell Hu Wujing about this.
Fengchang Mansion.
Hu Wujing has returned to the official office.
He has persuaded many officials in the past two days. The construction of the Crown Prince's Mansion is now beginning to take shape. He only needs to finally submit the matter to His Majesty. No matter whether it succeeds or not, he will be able to benefit from it.
Therefore, Hu Wujing was in a very happy mood at this time.
He drank the tea that had become popular some time ago, but it felt extremely sweet in his mouth.
at this time.
Suddenly a small official came to report that His Highness was here.
Hear the words.
Hu Wujing was shocked.
Fusu's sudden arrival was somewhat beyond his expectation.
It's too early.
He had actually expected that what he had done would be known to Fusu, but he didn't care. At that time, Fusu came to find him, but the matter had already been settled. What could Fusu do to him?
He was also thinking about Fusu.
It just came too early.
Hu Wujing held the tea bowl and took another sip.
He thought about it in his mind and finally thought that Zhang Cang was probably the one who reported the information.
He snorted coldly and said: "Zhang Cang, what can you do even if you tell His Highness about this matter? I have told other officials about the opening of the mansion, and now these officials think that His Highness instigated me. Blaming everyone, not to mention involving so many courtiers?"
"hehe."
Hu Wujing put down the tea bowl, stood up and went to greet him outside the palace.
"Your Highness, Hu Wujing, is here to see you." Hu Wujing stood outside the official office and greeted him respectfully.
Fusu came forward enthusiastically, helped Hu Wujing up, and said in a deep voice: "Fengchang has really broken me. Fengchang has devoted himself to the Qin Dynasty in the past few decades and has made great contributions. How dare Fusu accept such a great gift?" ?”
"Feng Chang, please get up quickly."
Hear the words.
Hu Wujing also took advantage of the situation and stood up.
Immediately, Hu Wujing pretended not to know: "Why did Your Highness come to Fengchang Mansion?"
Fusu looked around.
Hu Wujing understood immediately and quickly stretched out his hand and said, "I was negligent. Your Highness, please come in."
Fusu stepped into the official office.
Entering the lobby, Fusu did not sit down and asked directly: "I recently heard that Feng Chang is planning to open a mansion for me?"
Hu Wujing closed his eyes slightly, stroked his horn beard, and did not deny it. He responded and said: "It is indeed true, but I think I acted cautiously. I wonder who informed His Highness?"
"This is not important." Fusu said coldly: "What is important is the matter of opening the mansion."
Hu Wujing nodded and said: "Your Highness is the Crown Prince of the Qin Dynasty, so he should make plans to open the palace, and as the Crown Prince Fu, I should also consider it for His Highness, so I have been busy making arrangements for His Highness these days. There are dozens of officials interested in joining. Mansion."
"His Royal Highness's appeal in court is truly gratifying."
"I congratulate Your Highness."
Hu Wujing congratulated loudly again.
However, to Hu Wujing's expectation, Fusu seemed to be very happy about this, and even directly praised him: "Fengchang is worthy of being my crown prince, and everything is considered by me. I have indeed thought about opening a mansion. I also requested an order from His Majesty before."
"Oh?" Hu Wujing was overjoyed and said quickly, "I wonder how your majesty responded?"
"Your Majesty agreed." Fusu said calmly.
Hu Wujing could hardly stop smiling. He bowed and shouted, "I would like to congratulate Your Highness again."
But before Hu Wujing's congratulations ended, Fusu's voice came again.
"I accepted Fengchang's congratulations."
"And I also want to thank Feng Chang for recruiting officials for me."
"Otherwise, I don't know when this office of affairs will be established, and I don't know when the things I asked you to discuss before will be implemented. From now on, it will all be thanks to Feng Chang."
Hear the words.
The smile on Hu Wujing's face stopped abruptly.
Eyes wide open.
The whole person was shocked and speechless.
He stared at Fusu tightly and said in disbelief: "Your Highness, what is the affairs office mentioned earlier? Shouldn't the office opened by His Highness be the Prince's Office?"
"this"
"Where did this come from?"
This time it was Fusu's turn to look surprised.
Fu Su was surprised and said: "It's the Affairs Office, right? Last time I summoned the ministers of the DPRK and China to discuss important matters, Feng Chang was also among them. The main affairs handled by the Affairs Office are also this matter, Feng Chang should be clear about it. , and isn’t Feng Chang organizing this matter on my behalf?”
"I only told Feng Chang this about this?!"
"Did you, Feng Chang, tell other officials something else?"
Fusu looked confused.
Hu Wujing's face turned livid.
He just felt like his chest was about to explode.
When did he set up the affairs office for Fusu? What he was planning was always the Prince's Mansion.
It’s just that I can’t say this right now.
Because Fusu had made it clear that he did not allow himself to do anything else. He only told himself one thing. After all, it became clear that he, Hu Wujing, was the only one who had misunderstood.
But this misunderstanding problem is too big!
Until then.
Hu Wujing also reacted.
Fusu knew very well what he was doing, but he didn't dare to tell the officials that he was opening a prince's palace, so in the end he got himself involved.
Hu Wujing had a sullen face.
He gritted his teeth and said: "I am the Crown Prince Fu, and I am responsible for planning the Prince's Mansion."
Fusu shook his head and said: "Feng Chang's words are wrong. Since I became the crown prince, have I ever said that I would open a prince's palace?"
Hu Wujing said: "Your Highness is busy with everything, how dare you bother with such a trivial matter?"
Fusu shook his head again and said: "Fengchang is too preoccupied. How could Fusu dare to expect too much when he is the new crown prince? At the moment, he only wants to solve the military merit reward, but he really doesn't dare to think about anything else, so he just listened to Fengchang. I said that many officials have been summoned for the affairs office."
"This is a great good thing!"
"I am worried about what to do. With the help of these officials, the issue of military merit and rewards should be properly resolved. If this matter can be resolved smoothly, I will ask your Majesty to take credit for Feng Chang."
"It's just that I don't know who Feng Chang summoned."
"So I might have to trouble Feng Chang to explain the situation to these officials for me, and at the same time explain in detail what the Secretariat has to do, which is to implement the solution you have discussed."
"I feel very relieved to have Feng Chang help me."
Fusu encouraged Hu Wujing with a few words and then left directly.
Hu Wujing was left with a livid face.
a long time.
Hu Wujing finally couldn't stand it any longer.
He directly smashed the tea bowl on the case to pieces.
he knows.
He was tricked by Fusu.
Now with a few words, Fusu not only removed Fusu himself, but also threw all the questions back to him. Now he was going to explain to these officials.
How could he explain this?
And the affairs office handles personnel affairs?
Wasn't this just asking him to slap himself in front of those officials?
Fusu! ! !
Hu Wujing roared in his heart.
