"Young Master, be careful with your words!"
"His Majesty has his reasons for everything he does.”
Before Meng Yi left the palace, Ying Zheng did not say that he was going to tell the world about the kitten.
He could not tell these people that Meow Cub had brought Great Qin a Celestial item.
In case someone had ulterior motives and wanted to steal the kitten!
After thinking about it, Meng Yi could only change his words.
"Your Majesty, with these two Celestial items, Great Qin's people will no longer suffer from famine for a few years.”
"These two immortal items appeared out of thin air beside that cat.”
"His Majesty believes that the cat brought good fortune to Great Qin, so he made it a National Beast.”
However, Meng Yi had underestimated the pedantic thinking of these people.
Ying Zheng believed that there were immortal mountains and immortals in the sea, and that there was a way to live forever.
But these Confucians didn't believe it.
It was even more impossible for Meng Yi to use Great Qin's auspicious beast to convince these people!
Fu Su laughed sarcastically.
"Hahaha! Ridiculous!"
"This is ridiculous!"
"How can a cat become an auspicious beast of Great Qin? I'm afraid…it's a demonic beast!"
"I don't know where this wild cat came from, but it bewitched Imperial Father and actually made Imperial Father do such a foolish thing!”
The Confucians standing behind Fu Su echoed.
"That's right! That cat is a demonic beast!"
"That demon cat should be executed!"
Seeing so many people's murderous looks,
Meng Yi's expression turned cold.
A bunch of ignorant people!
How could you imagine the blessings that the kitten had brought to Great Qin?
He finally understood why Ying Zheng had such a headache over his son, Fusu.
If it was his son who led a group of people to oppose his orders every day, he would have kicked him to death!
Suddenly.
" Li Si?" Meng Yi asked in surprise when he saw Li Si standing beside him.
"Lord Prime Minister is also here to advise His Majesty to withdraw the decree?”
The indifferent Li Si shook his head.
"I'm waiting here for the order to enter the palace.”
" Oh…" Meng Yi.
The atmosphere suddenly became a little awkward.
It was mainly because Meng Yi saw that Li Si's expression did not look too good.
Just now, when Young Master Fusu had said that Great Qin was tyrannical, he had been shocked.
Li Si felt like he was pointing at a mulberry tree and cursing a locust tree.
He was the one who had set up some of Great Qin's cruel laws.
Young Master Fusu even dared to scold his father, Ying Zheng, so what was he, the Prime Minister, to him?
If one day, Fu Su ascended the throne, who knew if Fu Su would sharpen his knife against him?
This boy is not worth planning!
This was the second time Fu Su had offended Li Si.
……
Very quickly.
The people from the palace had brought Ying Zheng's order that only Li Si could enter the palace.
After Li Si entered the palace, he saw Ying Zheng flipping through the memorials.
He bowed slightly.
"Greetings, Your Majesty."
"Get up."
Ying Zheng put down the memorial in his hand and asked about what had just happened.
"Did Fusu and the others retreat?"
Li Si said honestly.
"Young Master Fusu and the ministers threatened to meet His Majesty, otherwise they would not leave.”
Ying Zheng gave a cold snort, as anger rose in his heart.
"Do these people treat my palace as a market?”
"Men!"
"Put all the officials outside the palace in prison. Young Master, help Su back to the residence!”
Li Si was shocked when he heard that.
He did not expect Ying Zheng to give such a direct order. He thought that at most, he would make those ministers kneel outside.
It seemed that Ying Zheng had made up his mind to confer a cat as the beast of the Great Qin Empire!
Had Ying Zheng doted on a cat to this extent?
He did not believe what Meng Yi said about the auspicious beast just now…
However…
Even though Ying Zheng could see the confusion on Li Si's face, he did not explain anything.
His trust in Li Si was far less than Meng Yi's.
He did not need to let Li Si know about the kitten for now.
"Zhen asked you to enter the palace to instruct you to immediately record Zhen's orders into Qin Fa.”
"Anyone who dares to disrespect the kitten, kill!"
Ying Zheng said with a stern look in his eyes.
Ying Zheng felt that this law was not excessive at all.
It was the kitten that allowed everyone in the Great Qin Empire to eat their fill.
It was already good enough that he didn't ask the world to build an ancestral temple for the kitten.
However, anyone who was blessed by the kitten and still spoke ill of the kitten behind its back must be executed!
Ying Zheng did not need to ask Li Si to know that Fusu and the other people outside must not have anything good to say about his kitten.
However…
He, Ying Zheng, would never kill meritorious officials.
Out of sight, out of mind.
Put these ministers in prison and let them out when they surrender.
If they dared to rebel after being released, they would be killed.
It was equivalent to giving those people a chance. They were useless.
For the details, he could refer to Lu Buwei. It was not that Ying Zheng did not give him a chance back then…
Li Si looked at the decisive emperor in front of him.
He knew very well that the other party was still the same ambitious person who had made great achievements and was praised by the world.
He was not stupid.
From the looks of it, the decision he made was correct. He remained neutral.
Between Young Master Fu Su and the princes, he would not support anyone!
Two days ago, Fu Su wanted to overthrow his county system, but now that there was trouble outside the palace, Li Si had already ruled out the idea of supporting Fu Su.
Both of them ended the conversation with reservations.
……
After Li Si left.
Ying Zheng continued to deal with the memorials in Zhangtai Palace until night fell.
Everything that happened today was also seen by another person.
That person was Zhao Gao.
In the eighteenth prince's mansion.
Zhao Gao leisurely drank a cup of tea with a faint smile on his feminine face.
"Looks like we can prepare our plan in advance.”
