Chapter 758: The Last Meeting
He rushed all the way, and one evening two days later, Hou's carriage slowly drove into Yinghou's mansion and stopped in front of the lobby.
With a tired look on his face, he walked off the carriage and met Fan Sui's second son who was waiting here.
The reason why he was the second son was because Fan Sui's eldest son was summoned to Xianyang as an official after the rebellion initiated by Yangquan Jun Michen was quelled.
This is of course because of the fact that the waiter is working hard behind the scenes.
Fan Sui's second son obviously recognized his elder brother's benefactor, so he respectfully saluted the old man.
Hou didn't say nonsense, and said directly: "How is Yinghou's current condition?"
Fan Sui's second son sighed and said to Hou: "I am very ill, and I'm afraid I may die at any time."
"What?" Hou was obviously surprised.
When I came to visit Fan Sui last time, Fan Sui was already ill in bed. Unexpectedly, it had been so long, but Fan Sui still did not improve.
Fan Sui's second son looked heavy and looked at the wait in front of him: "It was still good before winter, but since the beginning of winter, he has become more and more ill. He often falls into a coma and occasionally wakes up for a while, but he has been awake less and less recently.
After hearing this sentence, my heart slowly sank into the bottom of the valley.
You should know that as the actual controller of the Qin secret intelligence organization, Hou was actually very clear about the threats of the Zhao people to Qin. It was precisely because he knew the threats of the Zhao people that Hou even told Qin King Chu that he was not hesitant to tell a small lie to Qin King Chu, which made Qin King Chu firmly believe in the statement of the envoy of Qi.
This old eunuch dedicated his lifelong energy and love to the Great Qin Empire, hoping to use this to help the Great Qin Empire become stronger and build a foundation for eternity.
This has become an obsession.
To realize this obsession, Zhao State is the target that must be defeated, and Zhao State's annexation of Wei State must be stopped.
However, under the current situation, since King Qin and Chu had made a decision, it is naturally impossible for Hou as a minister to openly oppose King Qin and Chu's decision.
So in desperation, Houcai once again thought of Fan Sui and wanted to use Fan Sui's wisdom to help him break the deadlock again.
But Hou never expected that Fan Sui's illness was much worse than before, and now he was already in a coma and could not even meet with guests.
Fan Sui's second son stood aside and carefully observed Hou's expression, and finally couldn't help but ask: "Is what the distinguished guest wants to say very important?"
Hou took a deep breath and said to Fan Sui's second son in front of him very seriously: "To be honest, this matter is related to the life and death of Daqin!"
Fan Sui's second son was stunned when he heard this, but soon stood up and said, "Since that's the case, please ask the distinguished guest to wait for a moment. Then I will go and ask the doctor to take medicine, which may make my father awake."
After half an hour, Fan Sui's second son finally appeared in front of Hou again, and he spoke with a little apology: "My father is awake, please come with me."
Soon, Hou arrived in a somewhat dark room.
On the couch in this room, I saw Fan Sui lying there at first sight.
Compared with the last year, Fan Sui was obviously much thinner at this moment, and he looked skinny and lying there without moving.
If it weren't for the fact that there seemed to be a light flashing in his eyes, it would even make people feel that this might be just a corpse.
Looking at Fan Sui's appearance, Hou couldn't help but feel a little moved.
If Fan Sui was somewhat pretending to be sick last time, then this time he really couldn't pretend.
The man who once dominated the world and caused the six countries in Shandong to tremble and fear, has now been tortured to this extent by the disease.
Speaking of which, Fan Sui is about ten years younger than Hou.
Behind the wait, Fan Sui's second son gently brought him to the door.
Hou walked up gently and called out to Fan Sui on the bed, "Yinghou, Yinghou?"
After calling a few times, Fan Sui's expression suddenly moved slightly, and his eyes slowly moved, falling on Hou's body.
The next moment, Fan Sui's originally dull gaze suddenly showed a little bit of energy. He touched his upper and lower lips very hard, and said slowly: "What's the matter?"
Seeing Fan Sui's appearance, Hou was also a little confused, is this okay?
But no matter what, I have to put my hope on it now, so Hou cleared his throat and told Fan Sui everything that had happened in the past six months.
During this period, Fan Sui was lying quietly on the bed, not even moving his eyes for a while. The lights in the room shone on his eyes, causing yellow light to jump in his pupils.
It took about a quarter of an hour, and finally finished everything, and then said to Fan Sui who was lying on the bed with hope: "Well, in your opinion, what should we do in this situation?"
Fan Sui didn't move, his whole eyes seemed a little distracted, as if his soul had already gone to another world, leaving only the body to stay here.
I don’t know how long it took, but when the waiters began to doubt whether Fan Sui was already asleep or fell into a coma, Fan Sui finally spoke with great difficulty.
This time Fan Sui said two words: "King Zhao."
Hou nodded and said to Fan Sui: "King Zhao is indeed a key figure."
Fan Sui seemed to be in pain. He took a few quick breaths and suddenly said two more words: "Kill."
"Kill?" Hou looked at Fan Sui with some confusion. After a while, he suddenly realized and showed a surprised expression on his face: "Who Ying Hou meant, is he trying to kill King Zhao?"
Fan Sui breathed a sigh of relief, blinked his eyelids slightly, obviously expressing his agreement.
Hou sighed softly and said to Fan Sui: "We don't know that a few years ago, the Moxia faction under the Mo family planned an assassination, but failed. Since that assassination, the defense around King Zhao has been extremely strict, and our people can't find any opportunity."
There was silence in the room.
After a while, Fan Sui spoke in great difficulty again.
"Mi's."
This time, Hou suddenly understood: "Did Yinghou mean to kill King Zhao by marrying King Zhao? But all my eyes around Mi have completely lost contact. It is really difficult to contact Mrs. Mi who lives in the palace."
Fan Sui's eyes drooped slightly, and after a while, he repeated it firmly: "Mi."
Hou sighed and said, "Since that's the case, I will try my best to contact Mrs. Mi. If King Zhao can really be killed, then this time the Wei crisis will be resolved. But even if King Zhao dies, what should he do to stay behind is a powerful Zhao State. "
Fan Sui's face moved slightly, and suddenly he spoke two words softly: "Five Kingdoms..."
Hou was stunned when he heard this, and then couldn't help but say, "Wu State?"
Fan Sui's breathing suddenly became heavier a little. After a while, he said the remaining two words: "...fa Qi."
Hou stumbled carefully for a while and finally understood again: "When I wanted to follow the example of the five countries' attack on Qi and call on all countries in the world to jointly attack Zhao?"
Fan Sui's mouth twitched slightly, and then slowly closed his eyelids.
After a moment, a uniform breathing sounded in the room.
Hou stood up and walked towards the door. When he reached the door, he couldn't help but look back at Fan Sui, who was already asleep, and then sighed softly.
This should be the last time they met.
