It should be said that Li Si made this decision based on many factors.
On the one hand, although he is the prime minister, he does not know many secrets.
Prime Minister? What about Xiangguo?
The emperor Ying Zheng had a lot of affairs deceived by his loyal ministers and generals, so what if he was a prime minister?
At any rate, Ying Zheng must have his own intelligence organization in private. What does Li Si, a Legalist prime minister, have?
With insufficient intelligence, the judgment of the situation is naturally inaccurate.
On the other hand, times have changed, and he is no longer the same person he was then.
Li Si, who had nothing back then, was basically the same as being chased by Wenxin Hou Lu Buwei and was sent to South Korea as an envoy. He dared to fight hard and take risks, and he was mentally prepared to pay any price to get ahead.
To this day, he has successfully realized his dream, becoming an official and prime minister, and becoming a highly respected minister.
Now, how can he dare to fight so hard?
His current code of conduct is to do his best to meet all the requirements of the emperor Ying Zheng, and strive to be safe and watertight.
As long as it is stable enough, there will be no problems with his official position, and having no problems with his official position is Li Si's lifelong pursuit.
………………
On the other side of the General's Mansion, in Fusu's residence, a conversation also took place.
Fusu was still wearing an off-white gown and an off-white cloak, standing tall and tall at the top.
Below him, Zhang Han, a lean and aged man, was half-kneeling on the ground, with his hands clasped in fists and saluting.
"General, please pay homage to His Royal Highness."
Fusu stretched out his hand and said, "General Zhang, there is no need to be polite."
"I came to you mainly to ask about the rebels. Do you have any clues?"
Zhang Han stood up, lowered his head and replied in a deep voice, "The search work related to the Mohist rebellion has been incompetent and has yielded no results so far. Instead, it allowed the Yin Yang Family to get a breakthrough first."
"Now, the general has been searching for the whereabouts of the Mo family's treason within the designated area step by step."
"Judging from the various clues discovered so far, the investigation direction is not wrong."
"General Zhang, how long do you think it will take to find someone?" Fusu asked in a calm tone without revealing his voice.
"I think within a few days, General, there should be substantial progress." Zhang Han gave a more precise answer directly and conclusively.
Normally, he would not be too sure about what he said to avoid making mistakes, but this matter was indeed certain. The difference was just three days and five days, or seven days and nine days.
Fusu has a kind-hearted personality and has now become the de facto leader of the Shadow Guard. Zhang Han doesn't mind speaking more frankly.
Fusu was not very happy about this answer which was regarded as good news. He nodded calmly and then asked, "What about other aspects?"
Zhang Han asked tentatively, "What are you referring to?"
Fusu turned sideways, paced a few times, and said, "Prime Minister Li told me before that in order to deal with the complicated situation in Songhai, he allowed Zhao Gao, the commander of CRRC, to gather a snare for Songhai. manpower."
Zhang Han immediately nodded and smiled, understanding that he wanted to know the movements of Luo Sheng.
"During this period, Luo Wang's manpower has been spread throughout the city, monitoring various key points in the city. Starting yesterday, Luo Wang's manpower has been assigned to assist the general in searching for the Mohist rebellion."
"Sounds like everything is normal?" Fusu turned to look at Zhang Han with a smile.
Zhang Han bowed slightly and replied, "Actually, that is not the case. There are still some hidden actions in the net that have not been clearly discovered by the general."
"The general is worried that there may be some ulterior conspiracy."
This is enough to say the least.
conspiracy?
It's not unusual for the Empire's blades to have any conspiracies, let alone worries. As the leader of the Shadow Guard, the only things that Zhang Han should worry about theoretically are conspiracies that threaten the interests of the Empire.
Fusu nodded slightly, understood Zhang Han's meaning tacitly, and asked, "Do you have a clue?"
"Hmm..." Zhang Han thought about it and replied, "It will take some time for further investigation."
"Just do it." Fusu gave his support.
Zhang Han's attitude became more and more respectful, "I will obey your orders."
At this time, he has been tightly tied to the eldest son's faction, so he will naturally spare no effort to target Luo Wang. Even if Fusu doesn't tell him, he will not relax his vigilance against Luo Wang.
Zhang Han didn't think there was anything wrong with this binding. How many people wanted to follow the eldest son but couldn't?
Although the empire is still making frequent moves, anyone with a discerning eye can see that it will definitely become calmer in the future, and there will be fewer and fewer wars. Naturally, there will be fewer and fewer opportunities for generals like them. For those who are not from aristocratic families, Even more so.
Zhang Han knew very well that if he wanted to truly ascend to a high position and become a military aristocrat who could last for generations to come, the most feasible solution was to follow the merits of the dragon.
"One more thing." Fusu raised his hand and asked, "Luowang's surveillance network is spread all over the city. Is there anything missing?"
Zhang Han thought for a moment and shook his head, "The only place where no snare spies have set foot is where the Imperial Master stayed. Apart from the first time, there should be no more. Even the general's palace is full of snare stakes."
"Little Saint Xian Manor is no exception?"
"No exception." Zhang Han replied decisively, "But it is a special place after all. Luo Wang's operations are very careful, and only relatively tight surveillance is arranged on the outermost perimeter. Internally, there are probably only a few exploratory unannounced visits."
That's right, Zhao Gao didn't tell the truth to Li Si at all. How could he let go of such an important place as Little Saint Xianzhuang just because of Li Si? Of course, it's hard to say that Li Sixin didn't believe his lies.
Since Zhao Gao came to Songhai City, Xiaoshengxian Manor has been a place he must not let go - this Confucian holy land hides many secrets that interest him.
Anyway, it is Zhao Gao's unique skill to obey the law and violate the law. Unless the emperor comes to Songhai in person, it will be useless for anyone to say that Xiaoshengxian Village is not allowed to be inspected!
Besides, Li Si himself didn't have any good intentions for Little Sage Village, and Zhao Gao had no scruples.
After Fusu pondered for a moment, he did not comment on Zhao Gao's behavior, but just ordered, "Be sure to keep an eye on the snare, General Zhang."
"The general will understand." Zhang Han clasped his fists in salute and bowed to accept the order.
Then Zhang Han resigned and left.
Fusu stayed alone in the house, muttering the name of the Little Sage Village to himself, thinking to himself that it was time for him to find time to formally visit this Confucian holy place.
I just don’t know when the person I invited will arrive?
Outside the house, Zhang Han caught a glimpse of Dianqing guarding the door.
He is as strong as a blind bear, and it is hard for anyone to ignore him. There is no emotion on his stiff face, and the blindfold tied on his head makes it impossible to pry into his thoughts. It is like a piece of inanimate granite, silently Standing outside Fusu House.
Considering that there might be some problems with the other party's line of sight, Zhang Han did not try to signal to the other party. After glancing in other directions, he walked away coolly.
