Ji Hong nodded his head, looking thoughtful.
"You have to know that the land in our hands combined is not as much as the Feng family's!”
"Can he, Feng Quji, just watch as his benefits are taken away?”
"So Prime Minister Feng will definitely make a move. We just have to wait and see and follow Prime Minister Feng.”
Ji Hong stood up and asked Bai Fang again.
"Even if he is Li Si, he might not be able to defeat Prime Minister Feng. With the help of us nobles, the final outcome of this battle is still unknown!”
Ji Hong's few words immediately suppressed Bai Fang's anxiety.
" That's not enough," Ji Hong continued.
"Even if Li Si has most likely received His Majesty's approval this time, so what?”
"You have to know that we nobles have developed to this point and have deep roots. Even if His Majesty wants to touch us, it won't be so easy.”
"If things really blow up and get out of hand, His Majesty might even push Li Si out to take the blame!”
"Master Bai, have you forgotten about Lord Shang when Great Qin was still Duke Mu?”
Ji Hong's last sentence shocked Bai Fang.
They knew about Duke Mu of Qin and Shang Yang.
Shang Yang's reform was also targeted at the nobles, and he had the full support of Duke Mu of Qin.
It was indeed glorious in the past, but in the end, wasn't it still dismembered?
Now, Li Si dared to jump out and attack the nobles again.
No matter how strong Li Si was, could he be stronger than Lord Shang?
After thinking it through, Bai Fang laughed loudly.
"Hahaha, I knew it. The Ji Family Head is so calm. So he had a plan!”
Ji Hong smiled faintly, looking rather proud.
"I've already ordered people to stand guard at the palace gate. If they see Prime Minister Feng, they will immediately inform me.”
"When I see Prime Minister Feng, I will tell him that we nobles will support him with all our might and let him do whatever he wants!”
"When the time comes, the current Prime Minister will naturally stand up for us nobles.”
Just as Ji Hong was boasting proudly, footsteps came from outside.
"Patriarch, Prime Minister Feng has come out!"
After receiving the report from his subordinate, Ji Hong stood up and waved his sleeves.
"When the time is right, we will set off immediately!”
"Prime Minister Feng must be burning with anger right now. As long as we give him more firewood, he will have no choice but to stand out and fight Li Si for us nobles!”
……
At the palace gate.
Li Si followed closely behind Feng Quji with a smile on his face as if he was going to eat him alive.
This really made Feng Quji unhappy.
"Li Si, it's too early for you to be happy. One day, you'll lose the emperor's favor!”
"When the time comes, don't blame our colleagues for kicking me when I'm down and not helping me!”
Looking at Li Si again, he was indeed very pleased with himself. He was just short of saying," A scoundrel has achieved success!"
In actuality, Li Si knew that Feng Quji was not a traitor and truly wanted Great Qin to become powerful.
Li Si had just figured out this thought…
The reason why the two of them were at odds was because of their different political views.
It was obvious that Li Si had the upper hand and was suppressing Feng Quji, so it was normal for him to be mocked.
"Aiya, my Prime Minister Feng, even if His Majesty trusts me so much and dotes on me, this old man can't do anything about it.”
"Moreover, the words on the jade seal were all personally carved by this old man. This, sigh…I have no choice but to be favored.”
Feng Quji was furious.
"I don't know where I was when I was the Left Prime Minister!”
"Even now, this old man is still the Right Prime Minister, and I will still suppress you!”
"Hmph, who do you think His Majesty trusts more?”
However, Li Si was not angry at all. He was overjoyed.
However, he held back his laughter and fiddled with the Shang Army Sword and Duke Mu's Nation Sword.
As he fiddled with it, he pretended to be helpless.
"Sigh, now that Prime Minister Feng said this, I'm also a little confused. I really don't know who His Majesty trusts more.”
Looking at the two swords, Feng Quji turned green.
"You…Hmph!"
Feng Quji was so angry that he was panting heavily. He suddenly pulled his sleeves and turned around to get into the carriage.
The speed of the carriage seemed to be exceptionally fast, as if it contained Feng Quji's anger.
Li Si was happy from the bottom of his heart when he saw this.
In terms of official positions, Feng Quji was the Right Prime Minister while Li Si was the Left Prime Minister. He was indeed suppressed.
Coupled with the political discord, Li Si was often targeted by Feng Quji and had many grievances.
Now that he had finally won once, the feeling of comfort was indescribable!
Li Si was the only one left in the empty space. He turned around and looked at the majestic and magnificent Zhangtai Palace in Xianyang City. He could not help but feel emotional.
" I really don't know why I would make such a decision based on the original development of history.”
"I wonder when the next turning point and choice point will be.”
After muttering to himself, Li Si got into the carriage and headed straight for Feng Quji's residence.
Since Feng Quji was willing to hand over the title deed, Li Si would definitely take over.
……
Feng Quji's mansion.
Feng Quji, who had just gotten off the carriage, saw Fang Bai and Ji Hong at first glance. A dark light flashed in his eyes.
What are the two of them doing in my residence? Could it be that news of the morning court session has spread so quickly?
Fang Bai and Ji Hong walked towards Feng Qu with flattering and fawning expressions.
"I haven't seen you for many days.”
Facing the two of them, Feng Quji's face was stern and his eyes were cold.
"Alright, let's not talk about these pleasantries. The two of you have always been here for no reason. What do you want to do today?”
Seeing Feng Quji speak so bluntly, even to the point of sounding a little unpleasant, Fang Bai and Ji Hong did not get angry. After all, they had a favor to ask of others.
"Hey, that old Prime Minister Feng, we've heard about the things that happened in the morning court.”
"Li Si actually proposed such a strategy. He really wants to exterminate my nobles.”
"Even if he has the support of His Majesty, as long as the old Prime Minister Feng calls out, our families are willing to follow him closely!”
Feng Quji saw through Ji Hong's thoughts.
Raise your arms and shout?
Wasn't this purely treating it as a bird that stood out and a spear?
Thinking of this, Feng Quji spread out his hands with a helpless expression.
"So what if I raise my arms and shout? When will His Majesty's decree be changed?"
"Besides, with the Sword of Lord Shang and Duke Mu's Nation Sword, Li Si has the privilege to act first and report later. Who dares to resist?”
Ji Hong whispered.
"Old Prime Minister, why are you so pessimistic? Wasn't the Shang Lord back when Duke Mu was still much stronger than Li Si?”
"Therefore, this matter is not impossible. Moreover, the land is the life of my family!”
As soon as Ji Hong finished speaking, Feng Quji pretended to be moved. His eyes moved a few times as if he was really moved.
Ji Hong saw this scene and instantly felt that he was about to convince Feng Quji.
"Minister Feng, this matter is really promising!”
"Even the Shang Lord is dead, what can Li Si do?”
"And I heard that Your Majesty's body seems to be…"
When Ji Hong said this, he stopped abruptly with a meaningful expression on his face.
"You mean, to find His Highness Fu Su?" Feng Quji raised his eyebrows.”
