Sand dunes!
Li Si was already in his seventies. With a walking stick and a head full of white hair, he slowly walked into Zhao Gao's attic.
Zhao Gao had already come out to welcome him.
"Minister Li!"
He cupped his hands.
accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.
Not to mention Qin Shi Huang, this kind of heroic lord?
Zhao Gao had been able to stay by his side for many years because he was observant and tactful.
"Zhongche Prefecture Magistrate, how is Your Majesty today?”Li Si asked worriedly.
"The Imperial Physician ordered me to wait on him," Zhao Gao said."It's the same as a few days ago. There's no improvement."”
"Sigh!"
Li Si sighed heavily.
"What brings you here, Prime Minister?" asked Zhao Gao.”
"Have you heard about the matter of Xianyang?"”
"Yes, what's the matter?"
Zhao Gao was puzzled.
He had been busy taking care of the First Emperor, giving Huhai pointers, and planning for the future, so he didn't pay much attention to Xianyang.
After the First Emperor fell seriously ill, the news and state affairs sent by Xianyang were handled by Li Si.
"I received news that a few days ago, a strange phenomenon appeared in Xianyang. Lord Wu 'an appeared and illuminated Xianyang, allowing the people to see it!”
"Lord Wu An?"
" I don't know which alchemist came up with the fake news." Zhao Gao laughed coldly." Haven't we killed enough?!"”
Since the First Emperor killed the alchemist, there was no lack of divination and divination about ghosts and gods all over the world.
What is the destruction of Qin must be Hu, Qin Shi Huang died and the land was divided, the destruction of Qin must be Chu and so on.
Every year, the people of the six states who used the name of necromancers or colluded with necromancers would come up with some rumors.
Lord Wu An had been dead for fifty years, yet he could still resurrect?
Who are you lying to!
"These people are just fooling a few fools.”
Li Si sighed." It's different this time. Something's not right."”
"Hmm?"
" I thought the same as the Prefect of Zhongche," Li Si said." But my son, Minister Feng, and the secret letter from the palace all said that they saw it with their own eyes!"”
"You saw it with your own eyes?" Zhao Gao was surprised.
"That's right, the people of Xianyang have seen it.”
Li Si said," Right now, every family in Xianyang City is worshipping Lord Wu 'an, and the incense offerings are flourishing. Not only that, but everywhere in the world, similar situations are happening wherever Lord Wu' an's shrine is held or places where he is worshiped.”
"Right now, this matter is also spreading among the soldiers!”
Li Si pointed outside and said,""There are already old Qin people secretly worshiping Lord Wu 'an in order to seek peace.”
The so-called old Qin people referred to those who had lived in Guanzhong for generations.
However, the strength of Qin could not be separated from foreign famous officials and generals other than the old Qin people fighting to the death.
This was the key to Qin's ability to destroy the six states.
This was a very tolerant country.
As long as you had talent, the king would not care about your background. He would treat you with respect and entrust you with important tasks.
For example, Wei Yang, Zhang Yi, Wei Ran, Lu Buwei, Li Si, and so on.
Perhaps it was because of such an all-inclusive and majestic heart that it could accommodate the land and people of the six dynasties.
However, the opposition still existed.
Old Qin and outsiders had always had conflicts.
Like Wei Yang, even though he had laid the foundation for the Qin State to rise to the east, he had not received the true recognition of the old Qin people.
It was just that the past Qin Kings had great talents and strategies, and they were able to turn this internal conflict into an external conflict.
Now, the world was unified.
In the imperial court, the "foreign" minister was the most powerful.
The old Qin people who claimed to have fought to the death for generations were showing signs of falling.
The people of the six states and the people of the Qin country had different regional customs and cultures. When they collided and blended, it would naturally magnify the contradictions.
In the past, he could shift the conflict to the outside world.
But now, he couldn't.
In fact, the First Emperor had tried.
He attacked the Xiongnu and conquered South Vietnam.
Not only did it not solve the problem, but it also destroyed Great Qin's national strength.
The Six Nations were suffering.
Old Qin's life was also bitter!
At this moment, Baiqi, who was regarded as the representative of the Qin faction, suddenly appeared. How could he not be excited?
Zhao Gao pondered for a moment, frowned, and said coldly,""Lord Wu An's manifestation? I think someone is causing trouble!"
He did not believe in ghosts and gods.
If he believed in ghosts and gods, he wouldn't be like Zhao Gao today.
"I'm afraid that the news of His Majesty's illness has already been leaked. Some people want to take the opportunity to rebel!”
It was not surprising that Zhao Gao had such a deduction.
Li Si nodded slightly." I thought so too. I wonder which young master it is!"”
"Who else could it be?"
" That's the only one who's close to the Confucians and alchemists," Zhao Gao said coldly." Meng Yi also has a patrol team. It's not difficult to contact his big brother."”
Zhao Gao and Meng Yi had an old grudge.
Once, Zhao Gao committed a serious crime, and Qin Shi Huang asked Meng Yi to punish him according to the law.
Meng Yi did not dare to bend the law, so he sentenced Zhao Gao to death and stripped him of his official position.
Qin Shihuang remembered that Zhao Gao was usually very serious in his work, so he pardoned him and restored his official position.
From then on, Zhao Gao hated Meng tribe.
Li Si knew about this and shook his head.""But Meng Yi has already returned to Kuaiji to pray to the mountains and rivers.”
"Prime Minister, don't forget that the older generation of the Meng and Wang family were once under Lord Wu An.”
Zhao Gao became more and more certain. He said,"Only they can cause such a huge commotion everywhere!”
Fu Su had made a good move!
The Wang and Meng families were both on the side of supporting Su. Now that they were using Lord Wu 'an's name, they could evoke the memories of the old Qin people.
He would also make up some stories about gods and ghosts to fool the people, especially the First Emperor.
Qin Shi Huang had always pursued immortality. Even though he killed alchemists, he still believed in ghosts and gods.
If he heard that Lord Wu 'an had appeared, he would definitely rush back to Xianyang to offer sacrifices.
As the old subordinates of Lord Wu 'an, the Wang and Meng families would naturally enter Qin Shi Huang's eyes.
Then, it was logical for Fusu to succeed the throne.
Fu Su didn't treat Zhao Gao as well as Huhai. He even wrote a letter accusing Zhao Gao of being a crafty official.
If Fu Su succeeded to the throne, wouldn't he lose all his power and wealth?
Zhao Gao thought about the imperial edict of the First Emperor.
"No, we can't let His Majesty know about this!”
"We can't even let him return to Xianyang!”
Zhao Gao's eyes flashed with viciousness.
An idea that even he was shocked by appeared in his mind.
Anyway, Qin Shihuang was about to die.
It was better to end his pain as soon as possible.
Zhao Gao's scheme was like a venomous snake, coiling around him and growing stronger.
"Prime Minister, in my opinion, this matter is not yet known. It's best not to let His Majesty know for the time being!" he sighed.”
" I think so too!" Li Si raised his eyes and nodded. It wouldn't be too late to report to His Majesty after the truth was found out!”
Zhao Gao raised his eyebrows.
He immediately reacted.
Li Si did not want Qin Shihuang to know about this, so he came to find him.
Li Si deliberately mentioned the " Old Qin people ". Could it be that he thought of Shang Yang's fate and was still afraid, so he wanted to protect himself?
Zhao Gao's mind was racing. After Li Si left, he sneered.
Protect yourself?
He wanted power and also wanted to retreat unscathed. How could there be such a good thing!
