"Young Master Fusu, don't speak carelessly in front of the king in the imperial court!
You have to know that you have made a military pledge in the imperial court. Military orders are like mountains, not child's play!”
When Fu Su said that the problem of the drought had been resolved, Lu Buwei immediately became angry and scolded him.
Lu Buwei didn't believe Fu Su's words at all. He thought that Fu Su was lying in court to escape punishment.
"The drought is like fire, and the people are in dire straits. Young Master has been in Shanggu Village for three days, but even the villagers of Shanggu Village have to rely on the old, weak, women, and children to carry water to irrigate the fields.
Under such circumstances, Young Master still reversed the situation and dared to deceive His Majesty!”
Lu Buwei waved his sleeves, his face filled with rage. His hair and beard floated up as he waved his sleeves. He was so aggressive that his tiger-like might shook the entire imperial court.
This was the first time Lu Buwei had shown his dominance and majesty in front of Fu Su.
Its momentum was majestic and terrifying!
Most of the courtiers in the court were trembling with fear. They lowered their heads like quails and did not dare to stroke the Prime Minister's tiger beard at this time.
He was afraid that he would be misunderstood by the prime minister because of a wrong look or action.
There were also some officials who were calm and unfazed by Lu Buwei's anger. At the same time, they didn't express their stance, and they acted as if this matter didn't concern them.
Even if Fu Su was a Young Master, it was not up to them to help him at the risk of offending Lu Buwei.
At this moment, Ying Zheng, who had returned to his throne, had a slightly dark expression on his face.
Lu Buwei's actions had already constituted the crime of bellowing at the imperial court, and bellowing at the emperor's son in front of the emperor had also become an offense to the royal family and the emperor's authority.
However, Ying Zheng still resisted the urge to draw his sword and break off his relationship with Lu Buwei. After all, in the past years, Lu Buwei had dominated the imperial court, roaring and even waving his sleeves away more than once.
And every time, Ying Zheng had to endure it.
"Ying Zheng, do you remember Gou Jian, the King of Yue?”
Ying Zheng clenched his fists tightly under the sleeves of his robe, reminding himself loudly in his heart that a little impatience could ruin a great plan.
"If you don't believe me, then follow me!”
In this storm-like court, Fu Su's confident and energetic voice rang out once again.
Fu Su looked at Lu Buwei calmly. He didn't shout himself hoarse like Lu Buwei, but his calmness stunned Lu Buwei and all the officials.
For so many years, Fu Su was the only person in the entire State of Qin and even the entire world who could speak to Lu Buwei so calmly after the Prime Minister had lost his temper!
One had to know that even the King of Qin, Ying Zheng, had to respect Lu Buwei!
At this moment, everyone felt that regardless of whether Fu Su had thought of a solution to the drought or not, just this courage of a newborn calf that was not afraid of the tiger was enough to make people marvel.
"Hehe, it seems that Young Master won't turn back until he hits the south wall!”
Lu Buwei was so angry that he laughed. At the same time, he was thinking about the motive behind Fu Su's words and actions.
He did not believe that Fu Su would have a way to dredge the entire Guanzhong area, so Lu Buwei thought that Fu Su was bluffing and was actually trying to escape from the hall.
"Alright, then this old minister will follow Young Master to take a look. For the sake of fairness, this old minister invites Your Majesty to move with your colleagues.”
Thus, Lu Buwei nodded his head and agreed to Fu Su's request. At the same time, he held the Prime Minister Seal and the Tiger Tally and ordered,"
"Ask the officials to mobilize a large number of troops to protect the king and the officials.
The entire network was mobilized to closely monitor every corner to prevent spies from the various countries from assassinating the king!”
Seeing Lu Buwei giving orders, Fu Su couldn't help but sneer in his heart.
"This old fox is really cunning. He mobilized a large number of troops and a net just to prevent me from escaping.
I'm afraid that an old fox like you can't wait for the death of the Qin royal family so that you can rightfully become king!”
Since Lu Buwei had spoken, then how could the monarch and his subjects of the State of Qin reject the Prime Minister's request? Therefore, Ying Zheng nodded and ordered Fu Su to lead the way.
Under the protection of a large army, all the officials and ministers of the imperial court marched towards Shanggu Village in a mighty manner. They only arrived after half a day of rushing. Some of the weak civil officials were already dizzy and did not look like humans.
"Hey, kick harder!"
"Children, work harder!"
"Those by the river, don't just stand there. The water is coming!”
As soon as Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei got off the carriage and stood on the official road beside the village, they heard a loud noise coming from the direction of the river. However, they were still far away, so they could not see it clearly.
Ying Zheng looked at Fu Su with some doubt, and after seeing Fu Su smiling back at him calmly, Ying Zheng felt more confident, so he said,"
"Prime Minister, please, let's go to the river and see what this kid Fu Su is up to!”
Lu Buwei gave a faint " hmm ", and then walked towards the riverside with Ying Zheng, surrounded by a crowd.
As the monarch and his subjects of the Qin Dynasty approached, the movement by the river suddenly changed.
It turned out that the villagers standing on the riverbank were stunned when they saw the army pressing down on them and so many extraordinary figures arriving. Some of them even trembled in fear and knelt on the ground.
There were still many villagers below the river bank. They did not know what was happening above and were making a ruckus below.
"Chunsheng, what are you guys doing? Don't you know that water is precious?”
Accompanied by such a clamor, Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei, and all the officials of the State of Qin were stunned by the scene before their eyes.
At the edge of the river bank, waves of water sprayed onto the bank, even drenching the villagers who were in a daze by the river!
"What…what's going on?"
"Yeah, didn't the water level of Wei River drop by half compared to the previous years due to the great drought? How come the water level of this section of Wei River still overflows the embankment?”
Some of the officials were so shocked that they could not close their jaws, and there was an uproar.
Ying Zheng's eyes lit up in an instant, and he was a little agitated at the moment. He quickly walked towards the shore.
Ying Zheng did not know why such a miraculous scene would happen there. He only knew that all of this was the credit of his son, Fu Su!
Fu Su did not disappoint him!
Meanwhile, Lu Buwei's expression changed immediately, and his face was filled with disbelief and disbelief. Therefore, Lu Buwei followed closely behind Ying Zheng and rushed to the riverside, looking as if he was determined to see what kind of trick Fu Su was playing.
But in reality, this was just a futile struggle.
"Sima Yi greets the king and the prime minister!”
"Servants Yu Huatian and Yu Huasheng pay their respects to Your Majesty and Prime Minister!”
When Ying Zheng and Sima Yi walked to the riverside, there were also three people walking towards them. The first one was Sima Yi, the companion of the King of Qin.
The other two were Fu Su's trusted eunuchs, Yu Huatian and Yu Huasheng.
The three of them had been waiting here for a long time under Fu Su's orders.
At this moment, Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei had also arrived at the riverside. When they saw the scene below the riverbank, both their emotions were stirred to the extreme!
It was just that the king of Qin was overjoyed and the prime minister was shocked…
