Chapter 83 Chapter 83: Ziying recognizes his uncle
After Yan Le died, several Yinglong soldiers chopped off Yan Le's head like they did with Zhao Gao's body, wrapped it in cloth, and then quickly fled the Yan Mansion with the young emperor Ying Kui hostage.
In the next few days, all the Yinglong troops who were hiding in Tan County continued to lurk in disguise as beggars.
Strangely enough, everything in Tan County went as usual for the next period of time. Except for the little emperor's family, there was not even a group of soldiers searching for the little emperor and Yinglong's army.
Logically speaking, this is a bit strange, but it is reasonable. When Zhao Gao was there, all affairs in the court were controlled by Zhao Gao. Now that both Zhao Gao and his son-in-law have died at the hands of Yinglong's army, there is no need for Tan County affairs.
The presiding officer and the remaining ministers have long been fed up with Zhao Gao's oppression. Once Zhao Gao dies, who will think of finding Zhao Gao's murderer? As for the little emperor Ying Kui, he was only temporarily found by Zhao Gao.
It's nothing more than a puppet, and the ministers will not rush to find it.
There is another important reason that prompted the Tan County civil and military officials to choose silence, that is, the person who assassinated Zhao Gao this time was Fusu's Yinglong Army. Intimidated by Fusu's power, these ministers could only choose to remain silent.
A few days later, seeing no response from the Tan County government office, Han Chuan led Yinglong's soldiers to leave Tan County and headed for Xianyang.
When Han Chuan returned to Xianyang with the heads of Zhao Gao and Yan Le, Fusu immediately announced to the world the news of the execution of Zhao Gao, Yan Le and his son-in-law, and ordered the heads of Zhao Gao and Yan Le to be hung.
At the city gate to warn people all over the world.
After disposing of the heads of Zhao Gao and Yan Le, Fusu prepared to place the young emperor Ying Kui in his place.
On this day of the court meeting, Han Chuan brought the young emperor Ying Kui to the Qilin Hall. He saw a child of only six or seven years old coming to the lobby tremblingly under the leadership of the guards. The child's face was pale and his expression was depressed. It was obvious that he was in trouble.
I suffered a lot on the way to Xianyang.
After seeing Fusu, Ying Kui didn't say anything and knelt down at the foot of the stairs, waiting in panic for Fusu to deal with him.
Fusu Su looked at Ying Kui who was prostrating himself at the foot of the jade steps. He sighed and asked the guards to help Ying Kui up.
Throughout thousands of years of human history, how many ignorant children have been pushed to the throne. Some of them became wise kings, but more of them were just puppets manipulated by powerful officials, and eventually died.
"Go and call Ziying," Fusu ordered the guards beside him as he looked at Ying Kui.
After a while, the guards brought Ziying to the court hall.
"Prime Minister, how senior are Ying Kui and Ziying?" Fusu asked Li Si.
"Master, in terms of seniority, this Ying Kui is a generation older than the young master."
"Ziying, I found a brother-in-law for you, please go and see him." Fusu pointed at Ying Kui and said to Ziying.
"At first glance, he is younger than me. He is almost like a brother-in-law. I am almost his elder brother."
Ziying looked at Ying Kui standing at the foot of the stairs and said dissatisfiedly.
After hearing what Ziying said, the whole court burst into laughter, and all the civil and military officials were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.
"I deposed you as emperor and asked you to study with Ziying. Are you willing?" Fusu looked at Ying Kuai and asked.
"I do," Ying Kuai replied without hesitation.
For Ying Kui, this choice made him extremely happy.
Ever since he was elected emperor by Zhao Gao, his life has completely changed. He was hurriedly taken into the Tanxian Palace by a group of guards. From then on, he became a puppet under Zhao Gao's despotic power, even meeting his father.
It all depends on Zhao Gao's eyes. Even if Zhao Gao agrees to let him meet his father, he must be under the supervision of guards. All this makes the seven-year-old child feel extremely difficult.
When Ying Kuai heard that Fusu asked him to accompany Ziying to study, he excitedly agreed to what Fusu said, fearing that Fusu would regret it if he was too late.
"You take your 'brother-in-law' and go down first," Fusu said teasing Ziying.
Ziying glanced at Fusu speechlessly and walked towards Ying Kui.
After seeing Ziying glance at Fusu, the officials laughed again.
After a while, Ziying pulled Ying Kui away and left. Little did Fusu know that the child he released would become the best general under his command in the future and would make immortal contributions to his conquest of European countries.
"My lord, now that Zhao Gao is dead, Donghai County and other places will inevitably fall into civil strife. This is the perfect time for Da Qin to regain the counties formerly under Hu Hai's rule. I suggest that we send troops to take them back immediately," Meng Yi suggested to Fusu.
.
"Your Majesty, I also agree with you."
"I second the proposal"
…
Seeing that all the courtiers had expressed their stance, Li Si also stood up from the chair given by Fusu, and seconded: "Master, I also think that what my colleagues said is true, and we should send troops to take back Donghai County and other four counties."
"What you all said is reasonable, but the time is not ripe now, so we won't discuss it in advance."
Fusu glanced at the ministers and said to everyone.
"Sir, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. It would be a pity if you miss it!" Meng Yi hurriedly persuaded.
"Meng Yi, what you said makes sense, but the time has not yet come."
After listening to what Fusu said, Meng Yi looked at Fusu with a look of regret and prepared to speak again.
"Meng Yi, since the young master said that the time has not come yet, then the time has not yet come, so don't say it anymore."
Seeing that Meng Yi wanted to speak, Li Si quickly spoke to dissuade Meng Yi.
Until the end of the court meeting, no courtiers discussed sending troops to regain Donghai County and other four counties.
"Two prime ministers, Xiao He and Fan Zeng, please stay here for a while."
Just as the ministers were leaving the Qilin Hall, Fusu stopped Li Si, Meng Yi, Xiao He and Fan Zeng who were about to leave.
Hearing that Fusu asked the four of them to stay, Li Si and the other four stopped, turned around and walked to Fusu's side.
After the other ministers who participated in the court meeting left, Fusu looked at Li Si and the four others and spoke:
"Peng Yue and Zhao Shi sent a letter saying that Nanhai County and Minzhong County have stabilized, and asked me to select the governors of the four counties in Minzhong County. I have already thought about the candidates for the governors of each county in South Vietnam. You
Let’s discuss it and see if it’s suitable.”
"Master, since you have already thought about it, let's just arrange it as you want," Li Si said.
"Well, this matter affects the livelihood of millions of people in the four counties of South Vietnam and must be discussed. I intend to let Wu Guang be the governor of Guilin County, Li Yan be the governor of Xiang County, and Zhao Shi will remain unchanged and continue to be the governor of Minzhong County. It's just that
There is currently no suitable candidate for the post of Nanhai County Sheriff, how about you recommend someone?" Fusu looked at Li Si and the four of them and asked expectantly.
"Sir, isn't Zhang Liang in Guilin County? How about letting him be the governor of Nanhai County?"
"Meng Yi, anyone can do it, but Zhang Liang can't. He has to come back and continue to assist Baili Yue in managing the affairs of the Daqin Military Academy." Fusu shook his head and rejected Meng Yi's suggestion.
The reason why Fusu wanted Zhang Lianglai to serve as the deputy dean of the Daqin Military Academy was because he wanted Zhang Liang to teach the students all the military tactics and strategies he learned from the old man in Yuanshang. Otherwise, it would be a waste of natural resources.
"Young Master, why don't you let me be the governor of Nanhai County?" Xiao Hemao then recommended himself.
In fact, Fusu was waiting for Xiao He's words. Fusu wanted to reuse Xiao He, but Xiao He had no merit. Reusing him rashly would cause dissatisfaction among the ministers. Han Xin, Peng Yue and others who came with Xiao He had already made meritorious deeds on the battlefield, but Xiao He still had
He had no meritorious service that could convince the public, only some merits such as being sent to Jiangdong as an envoy. Therefore, Fusu thought of arranging for Xiao He to go to Nanhai County to serve as the governor for two years. Firstly, he could accumulate merits for Xiao He, and secondly, Xiao He could train in Nanhai County.
Ichiban.
"I think this is feasible. How about letting Xiao He serve as the governor of Nanhai County? What do you two prime ministers think?"
"Young master's arrangement is very good, I have no objection." Li Si was the first to express his position.
"I have no objection," Meng Yi agreed.
Soon, Fusu asked his scribes to draft an edict appointing Xiao He and others as governors of the four counties of South Vietnam, and sent people to the four counties of South Vietnam.
After deciding on the candidates for the governors of the four counties in South Vietnam, Li Si and the others left Qilin Hall, but Meng Yi looked a little worried, obviously still regretting that Fusu gave up the opportunity to take back Donghai County and other four counties.
Seeing Meng Yi like this, Li Si shook his head helplessly, looked at Meng Yi and tried to persuade him: "Meng Yi, the young master must have his own plan for doing this. It's just that you and I can't understand it for the time being. Don't worry, the young master is doing this."
It's definitely not an unintentional move, there is definitely a bigger plan, it's just that you and I can't see through it."
After listening to what Li Si said, Meng Yi felt less regretful and at the same time looked forward to the purpose of the young master's move.
