"Lady Moon Goddess, everyone in Xianyang City is talking about Young Master Fu Su's foolish actions. What do you think about this?”
In the Yin Yang School's residence in Xianyang, a young man dressed in auspicious clouds looked at the Yin Yang School's protector, Moon God, with a playful smile.
This young man was none other than Yun Zhongjun, Xu Fu, the leader of the Five Elders of the Yin-Yang School.
The Yin Yang School's Right Protector, Yueshen, was currently looking into the distance from the balcony. She was looking down at the bustling Xianyang City. Her gaze was deep under her blue veil.
After a while, Yueshen's cold voice rang in Yun Zhongjun's ears."
"Ordinary people can only see the vision of ants. How can they know what the Old Dragon is thinking?
Based on the previous incident where Fu Su had outwitted Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, Fu Su had a deep mind and would never do something he was not confident in.”
Hearing Yueshen's words, Yun Zhongjun, who had just arrived in Xianyang, nodded."
"Since the Moon Goddess has said so, then it can't be wrong. Should we send someone to keep an eye on Fusu?
The smarter he is, the harder it is to control him. If this child ascends, it will be detrimental to our Yin-Yang School's grand plan.”
The Moon Goddess was silent for a moment before she slowly nodded."
"Yun Zhongjun, send a few of your clever disciples.
But remember, don't be discovered by Fu Su or Qin Wang's people, and don't attack Fu Su privately.
After all, he was the young master of the State of Qin. Even if the Yin-Yang School did not support him, they could not touch him now!”
The Moon Goddess's voice was cold and calm, but there was an unquestionable majesty in her tone.
"Then this subordinate will take his leave!"
Yun Zhongjun excused himself and turned to leave.
The moment before he left the threshold, Yun Zhongjun looked at a little girl wearing a veil in the hall. The little girl was only about four or five years old, but her eyes were big and bright, as if they were carved from jade.
The moment he saw this little girl, Yun Zhongjun finally understood why Yueshen had chosen this little girl to be the next Young Master Si Ming of the Yin-Yang School!
This was because the little girl's eyes were deep and ethereal, which even Yun Zhongjun could not see through. Yun Zhongjun was so dazed that he almost tripped over the threshold.
"Rustle ~"
A strange sound came from the air. Yun Zhongjun felt the temperature in the hall drop rapidly, which meant that the Moon Goddess was angry.
Yun Zhongjun's heart skipped a beat. Out of fear for Yueshen, he quickly withdrew his gaze and left the room.
At the same time, in a mansion in Xianyang, a father and son were drinking.
This pair of father and son was Wang Jian, who held a prominent position in the Qin army, and his son, Wang Ben.
"Father, what do you think of Young Master Fusu?
This child seemed wise and steady, but he actually dared to be enemies with the Prime Minister. Wasn't he a little too smart?
After all, even His Majesty was afraid of Lu Buwei!”
After another glass of wine, Wang Ben finally lost his cool and looked at his father, Wang Jian.
Wang Jian was in his early forties and was still in his prime. His every move had the might of a general.
At this moment, Wang Jian glanced at his son and said with a cold snort,
"How many times have I taught you? The art of war is the art of deception.
It was the same for the knowledge in the imperial court. You could only see Lu Buwei's glory, but you couldn't see his foundation. It was just a castle in the air.
This Qin country's territory was ultimately still surnamed Ying.
If Fu Su did not have some ability, how could he be so highly regarded by the King?
In the past few years, Fu Su had not shown his true colors. As a result, he had been bullied by the Eighteenth Young Master Huhai many times, but he only had the false reputation of being a gentle and modest old man.
Now, it seemed that this kid was quite scheming. At such a young age, he knew how to hide his strength.
It was only now that he could participate in politics and stand in the imperial court that he had some self-protection power. Only then did he begin to show his claws and teeth. He could not be underestimated!”
Wang Ben didn't agree with Wang Jian's words,
" If it's really as father said, Young Master Fusu is wise and resourceful, then why didn't he learn from the king and continue to endure it? Wouldn't it be safer to wait until Lu Buwei is old and weak before revealing his claws?”
Wang Jian glanced at his young son and suddenly shouted in a low voice,"
"You're the one who thinks you're smart!
Although Lu Buwei was old, his body was still healthy, while the King was almost thirty years old. According to the Confucians, he should be in his thirties.
With the power in Lu Buwei's hands, the king could not even make any achievements. Seeing that his youth was fading away and his prime was about to pass, how could the king be willing to be like King Zhaoxiang, who only took power when he was old?
Thus, even though the King seemed to be enduring, he could not hold it in anymore.
However, the King was now weak and could not openly fight for power with Lu Buwei. If he failed, there would be no room for reconciliation in the power struggle.
Lu Buwei could totally depose the king and make the king's younger brother, Chang 'an Jun Chengjiao, king.
Therefore, the King still needed to continue to pretend to be patient and push out others to fight against Lu Buwei on his behalf.
This person had to be loyal to the king and have a high tolerance for mistakes. Even if he made a mistake and had a conflict with Lu Buwei, the king could step in and mediate.
The king's son was naturally the best candidate.
Among the young masters, the eldest son, Fu Su, was only twelve years old, and the eighteenth son, Huhai, was two years younger. At this age, he could take on some political affairs, but he was still a young child, so he was undoubtedly the best candidate.
Young Master Huhai was too sly and did not dare to offend Lu Buwei. Therefore, the only person the King could think highly of was Young Master Fusu.
Therefore, Young Master Fu Su's actions seemed foolish, but it was inevitable. Fu Su needed to use this to show his ability and value, and King also needed Fu Su to open up the situation!”
Wang Ben broke out in a cold sweat after hearing Wang Jian's analysis. After all, he had planned to persuade his father to get close to Lu Buwei, who was at the peak of his power.
"Then should we support His Majesty and Young Master Fusu?”
Wang Jian shook his head once again.
"It's still too early. The State of Qin belongs to the Ying family, but it's hard to guarantee that Lu Buwei will fight to the death in a moment of desperation. Therefore, our Wang family won't stand on either side.”
After that, Wang Jian stood up and left, leaving Wang Ben alone to reflect on Wang Jian's teachings.
……
Just as the people in Xianyang City were discussing Fu Su, the young master, who everyone thought was stupid, had already left Xianyang Palace secretly. He brought Yu Huatian, Yu Huasheng, and the other attendants to disguise themselves and head out of the city.
Patriarch Sunflower followed him like a shadow. He wanted to follow Fu Su, but all the spies died without a complete corpse, including those unlucky disciples of the Yin-Yang School.
Without a tail to follow him, Fusu rode his horse as he pleased. He left Xianyang for more than a hundred miles and arrived at the eastern region of Guanzhong, where the drought was the most severe.
Only by coming here could Fusu's plan to solve the drought be carried out and put into practice!
