After a while, the guards brought Han Chuan to Fusu.
"My lord, I wonder why you called me to your humble post?" Han Chuan asked.
So Fusu told Han Chuan the events that happened in Tan County in detail. Han Chuan was dumbfounded. He had no idea that Zhao Gao would dare to act like this.
"Sir, now that the false emperor Hu Hai is dead, should we take the opportunity to take back the counties that were originally under Hu Hai's rule?"
"The time has not yet come to take back the counties under Hu Hai's rule, but there is an important matter that you need to take care of right now." Fusu looked at Han Chuan and said.
Han Chuan looked at Fusu expectantly, curiously wondering what important thing Fusu was planning.
"No matter how you say it, Hu Hai is my brother. Now that he was killed by Zhao Gao, I, the elder brother, really can't swallow this breath. I want you to sneak into Donghai County, take down the heads of Zhao Gao and Yan Le, and return them to
Let’s capture the little emperor Ying Kui as well.”
After hearing Fusu's arrangements, Han Chuan's excitement rose again, and he knew that Fusu's arrangements would not disappoint him.
In fact, Fusu at this time was fully equipped militarily to regain Jiangdong and the counties under Hu Hai's rule. However, if he did so, Da Qin's finances would be on the verge of collapse. Due to Zhao Gao's misbehavior, the people under Hu Hai's rule had already
They are extremely poor. There are millions of people in Donghai, Jibei and other places. Once these people are brought under the rule at this time, the finances accumulated by issuing Daqin bonds will be exhausted. By then, the plan for Hexi will be
Also stop.
It will take several more years to restore Great Qin's national power. Fusu knows that he is already thirty-three years old, and the last thing he dares to waste is time. If he wants to expand Great Qin's territory to Europe in his lifetime, he cannot choose to go step by step.
For the development route, a radical and efficient governance model must be found to allow Da Qin to rise rapidly in a short period of time. At this time, Fusu had already thought of a mature governance plan in his mind.
According to Fusu's arrangement, Han Chuan led a thousand Yinglong troops to Donghai County first, while Fusu and his party headed for Xianyang step by step.
Fifteen days later, Fusu led the Huben army to break away from the main force and went straight to Xianyang, entering Hangu Pass first.
The reason why Fusu rushed to Xianyang non-stop was to meet his precious daughter Princess Wuyou as soon as possible, and of course Yu Ji. This expedition to South Vietnam took a year, which meant that Fusu left Yu
Ji has been away for a whole year, how can he not miss Yu Ji! This time another little princess was born, which further fueled Fusu's longing for home.
When Fusu and his party rushed outside Xianyang City, they saw Li Si and Meng Yi leading all the officials to greet them outside the city. Yu Ji, who was holding a child, was also in the team to greet him, as was the young master Ziying.
Seeing Fusu get off his horse, Li Si and Meng Yi immediately led all the civil and military officials to come up to him, knelt on the ground and saluted Fusu.
"Your Majesty, Li Si, respectfully welcomes the young master back to the court." Li Si said and bowed down.
"I respectfully welcome you back to the court," all the civil and military officials echoed, and after saying that, they also bowed to the ground.
"All ministers are exempt from courtesy"
Fusu said and walked towards Li Si, leaned over and helped Li Si up, and all the ministers also stood up.
Fusu looked at Li Si in detail, and saw that Li Si had much more white hair on his head than when he went on the expedition, and his body was stooped. It was obvious that it was not easy to work on the affairs of the country.
"Old Prime Minister, thank you Fusu!" Fusu said and bowed to Li Si.
"Sir, what are you talking about? This is the duty of a minister."
Seeing the old Li Si, Fusu felt a little uncomfortable. During the year he went on the expedition, Li Si had to rely on Li Si to preside over all matters in the court. Although he was assisted by Meng Yi, the left prime minister, according to Li Si's character, he would still
Worry about everything.
After meeting Li Si, Fusu also met with Meng Yi and other courtiers.
After finishing these official matters, Fusu came to Yu Ji and saw that Yu Ji's beautiful face was a little thin. It was obvious that he had been worried about his own safety during the expedition.
"Madam, I'm sorry for you."
"Husband, I'm not bitter, it's just that you've lost weight." Yu Ji looked at Fusu and said distressedly.
"Princess Wuyou, look, this is your father."
I saw the little princess in Yu Ji's arms supporting Su intently, as if she understood what Yu Ji said.
"Little Wuyou, come here and let dad hug you."
Fusu said as he took Princess Wuyou from Yu Ji's hand. The chubby little princess stared at Fusu for a while, then turned her mouth aside and started crying.
"It seems that this little princess doesn't know our young master from Da Qin!" Li Si walked over with a smile.
"yes"
Fusu smiled and said to Li Si, then stretched out his right hand to stroke the back of Ziying's head who was standing next to him.
"This sister hasn't been named yet, why don't you give me one?" Fusu looked at Ziying and said.
Fusu asked Ziying to name Princess Wuyou because he was deliberately inspecting Ziying's studies.
Ziying frowned and thought hard for a while. After a while, Ziying looked at Fusu and said, "Father, I am an incompetent child. I really can't think of a good name for my sister.
"
Fusu did not blame Ziying, but turned to look at Li Si.
"The Prime Minister is very knowledgeable, why don't you let the Prime Minister name the little princess?"
"Sir, let me name the little princess for you. I can't afford it, and it's not in line with etiquette." Li Si said to Fusu flattered.
Being asked to name the princess was a huge favor given to him by Fusu. Li Si was both happy and frightened. He was both afraid that he could not name the little princess well and that he was suspected of violating the rules.
"Hey, Prime Minister, you deserve it. Fusu is a junior in front of you, so it is most appropriate for you to name the little princess." Fusu persuaded.
"Since the young master is determined to give me this great honor, I won't shirk it."
As he spoke, Li Si lowered his head and fell into thinking, and began to painstakingly choose a nice and meaningful name for the little princess.
Yu Ji looked at Li Si expectantly. When Fu Su asked Zi Ying to name the little princess just now, Yu Ji felt a sweat in her heart. Zi Ying was by her side every day, and she knew how much knowledge she had, so she was afraid of Zi Ying.
Ying gave her precious daughter a name that was neither pleasant nor meaningful, but because of Fusu's reputation, she could only secretly pray that Ziying could come up with a good name.
When Ziying couldn't think of a good name, Yu Ji felt relieved. Just then she saw Fusu asking Li Si to name Princess Wuyou, and Yu Ji showed a relaxed expression on her face. After all, Li Si was famous for his knowledge.
With all the people in the world, his name should be right.
"There are Fusu in the mountains, and lotus flowers in the sky." Li Si repeatedly murmured this sentence from the Book of Songs.
"Sir, yes, how about the little princess be called He Hua?"
"Hehua..., Hehua..., madam, what do you think of this name?"
"How about calling him He Hua?" Yu Ji looked at Fusu expectantly and said.
"Thank you, Prime Minister, for naming the little princess."
"My lord, I am flattered that you can name the little princess." Li Si said excitedly.
The little princess of Da Qin was named by herself, which was more valuable to Li Si than any reward. This kind of honor is not something that can be obtained easily.
"Ziying, did you see that? You still have a lot to learn." Fusu said to Ziying lovingly.
"I understand, father, the child must study the teachings of the saints carefully and become as knowledgeable as the prime minister in the future."
After hearing what Ziying said, Fusu nodded with satisfaction and looked at Li Si with a bit of a nagging look.
"Prime Minister, you have named this little princess, how about you not make this kid your disciple?"
"Sir, this... this..." Li Si was so excited that he stammered.
"Prime Minister, you will leave these affairs of the DPRK and China to these young people, and you will train them, and you will help them check it. Take an hour every day to teach this brat, do you think so?" Fusu pointed to Meng Yi and others.
The man said to Li Si.
Li Si didn't know that teaching Ziying was much more important than handling government affairs. After all, this was Fusu's eldest son. If nothing else happened, he would inherit Fusu's position in the future. Fusu asked himself to teach Ziying. It can be seen that Fusu
Trust in yourself.
After thinking carefully, Li Si spoke: "I thank you for your trust in me. I am willing to teach you."
Fusu asked Li Si to teach Ziying, not just to train Ziying. Fusu also showed sympathy for Li Si. After all, teaching Ziying was easier than handling government affairs.
…
While Fusu was busy looking for teachers and names for his son and daughter outside Xianyang City, Han Chuan and his party had already mingled with a group of refugees and slipped into Tan County.
