That is to say, Fusu has the knowledge of a time traveler. If it were anyone else, he might really be deceived by these ministers. In terms of emotions and reasons, Zhou Bo's remarks are extremely shocking, especially the development of this matter.
It's actually not much different from Zhou Bo's prediction. It feels like it will develop according to Zhou Bo's prediction. It's really unreasonable to say that this matter has nothing to do with Zhou Bo.
In the face of such "conclusive" evidence, it was difficult for the officials to doubt Zhou Bo.
"People predicted this matter a month in advance, but it became a reason for suspicion among your colleagues. How 'sighted' you are? If you were a thief, would you inform others of your plan a month in advance?"
"This..." The minister who first suggested that Zhou Bo be handed over to Tingwei for interrogation was speechless and didn't know how to answer for a while.
Bailiyue's excuse also has a certain truth. If there is a conspiracy, would anyone in this world be stupid enough to tell others in advance? That would not be a conspiracy, but a naked conspiracy, like the disappearance of the Daqin envoy
It’s not a conspiracy, right?
Although Baili Yue's words can wash away Zhou Bo's suspicion to a certain extent, it still cannot reasonably explain Zhou Bo's motivation for making those predictions.
Fusu knew everything about Zhou Bo's prophecy, but he couldn't tell the officials clearly. He couldn't tell them that Zhou Bo was a great talent in the history books.
"Bai Liyue, why don't you call Zhou Bo here and let him defend himself in front of the ministers, and let him find an excuse for himself. If this person can't explain a reason, then
Let him explain to Tingwei."
Fusu said this. In fact, this was not because Fusu deliberately wanted to embarrass Zhou Bo, but to give Zhou Bo a chance to show his face in front of the ministers. Because Fusu himself was full of expectations for this Zhou Bo, and he did not believe that a person could be pacified in history.
The talented people who caused the chaos of the Seven Kingdoms in the Han Dynasty would not be able to withstand the censure of a group of ministers in the Qin Dynasty.
"My lord, Zhou Bo is waiting outside the palace. When I came to attend the court meeting, I had already brought this person with me."
Fusu gave instructions to the guard beside him and asked him to introduce Zhou Bo into the Qilin Hall.
After a while, the guard brought Zhou Bo to the court hall.
Fusu curiously looked at Zhou Bo under the jade steps, and saw that Zhou Bo was calm and majestic. Just standing there, he had the majesty of a general.
"The humble Zhou Bo pays homage to the young master," Zhou Bo said, prostrating himself on the ground and saluting Fusu. At this time, Fusu was still presiding over the Qin Dynasty as the young master of the Qin Dynasty, so he did not follow the emperor's etiquette.
"Free gift"
When Zhou Bo stood up, Fusu spoke with a serious face.
"Zhou Bo, I heard Bailiyue say that you predicted that trouble would happen in Hexi a month ago. Unexpectedly, you were right. But there is something fishy about this matter. Why don't you tell everyone about it?
Come on, tell me why. If you can't justify it, then you have to explain it to Wei Ting."
Seeing the "harmless" smile on Fusu's face, Zhou Bo was a little confused. Fusu in front of him seemed to be helping him, but also seemed to be deliberately making things difficult for him. He really couldn't understand.
Since entering the Qilin Palace, Zhou Bo's eyes have been on Fusu. Zhou Bo was also full of curiosity about the most powerful person in the Qin Dynasty. He raided Jiangdong to kill Xiang Liang, recaptured the land west of Hexi, drove the Huns out of Qin, and annihilated them.
South Vietnam. In terms of achievements and strategies, this Fusu is absolutely extraordinary, but why should he "embarrass" himself at this time?
As soon as it came, let it be. Seeing that he could not escape the censure of the officials, Zhou Bo had to calmly think about how to explain his sudden rashness. After thinking about it, Zhou Bo had some concerns in his mind and decided to tell the truth.
"Young Master, gentlemen, there is a certain basis for why Zhou Bo dared to say those words;
Our Great Qin defeated the Xiongnu, seized the land west of Hexi, and conquered the Kingdom of Nanyue. For such achievements, some people praise it, but even more people are afraid. The stronger our Great Qin is, the more fearful those who hate our Great Qin will be, and they will definitely take action.
, or unite with others, or plot secretly, they will inevitably make plans to weaken Qin.
At this time, our Great Qin's national power is growing, and they cannot find opportunities to weaken Qin from within, so they can only look for opportunities from the outside. At this time, the Xiang family in Jiangdong is quelling the rebellion in the original land of Hu Hai, and has no time to cause trouble. Even if someone intends to
Talking about Jiangdong will not stir up trouble, so the only choice for those who are anti-Qin is Hexi. Isn't this what happened when the Qin envoy disappeared in Hexi!"
After listening to Zhou Bo's explanation, Fusu nodded with satisfaction.
"Then how did you determine that this was not the fault of the Yuezhi?" Li Si asked curiously before Fusu could speak.
"Prime Minister, this is even simpler. The Yueshi have just been defeated by the Xiongnu and lost the land west of Hexi. At this time, the Yueshi's national strength must be weak. If they attack the Great Qin envoy at this time, they will be asking Great Qin to send troops to destroy themselves. As long as
King Huweishejia of the Yuezhi is not stupid, and he will definitely not commit suicide."
Fusu was very satisfied with Zhou Bo's clear explanation, and the officials also dispelled their previous suspicions, because Zhou Bo had explained it clearly enough. If he challenged Zhou Bo again, there would be no other better explanation than proving his stupidity.
Already.
"Then who do you think is responsible for the disappearance of the mission?"
Seeing that Zhou Bo's analysis was very clear, Fusu took the opportunity to ask Zhou Bo his doubts.
"My lord, I don't know about this because of my humble position."
From Zhou Bo's erratic eyes, Fusu judged that Zhou Bo had concerns and did not tell the truth.
After Zhou Bo's suspicion was cleared, the court meeting ended quickly.
…
When Baili Yue and Zhou Bo were about to leave Xianyang Palace, Mi Fu came to Zhou Bo with Fusu's order and informed Zhou Bo that Fusu would summon him alone in Xianyang Palace.
Zhou Bo was a little confused about Fusu's separate summons. Didn't he just meet him in the court? Why should he be summoned alone again? Zhou Bo had no choice but to ask Baili Yue for help.
"Mr. Bailiyue, this young master wants to summon the humble minister again. I don't know what is going on? I am very frightened. Is it possible that someone has slandered the young master again and wants to embarrass the humble minister again? Please give me some advice."
Baili Yue smiled and said nothing, turned around and continued walking out of the palace, leaving Zhou Bo panic-stricken in the cold winter wind of Xianyang Palace.
Seeing that he had no way out, Zhou Bo rushed to the inner palace of Xianyang Palace with the feeling of "stretching out your head will be a knife, and retracting your head will be a knife again". This was originally the palace of Concubine Yu. Since it was moved to Lanchi Palace, it has been occupied by
Fusu transformed it into a palace for reviewing memorials and receiving ministers.
Zhou Bo, led by Mi Fu, came to Fusu anxiously and watched Fusu quietly as he reviewed the memorial.
After a while, Fusu stopped and handed the memorial in his hand to Zhou Bo's hand.
"Take a look, how should we deal with this matter?"
Fusu suddenly handed the memorial to him, which was completely beyond Zhou Bo's expectation and frightened Zhou Bo into silence.
After a few breaths, Zhou Bo finally calmed down and said, "Young Master, I don't dare to look at you because of my humble position."
"Just watch it if I tell you to, what are you talking about?"
Zhou Bo had no choice but to pick up the memorial in his hand and read it carefully.
"Actually, you have already guessed the person behind the disappearance of the mission, but you just can't say it clearly in court, right?"
After hearing Fusu's words, Zhou Bo was so frightened that he fell to his knees on the ground.
