Encounter Qin Shihuang on a deserted island

Chapter 487 If I Don't Kneel, How Can I Convince the Public?
"I hope the king will take back his life!"

When the First Emperor's announcement came to an end, Chang Yu immediately interrupted.

This sound made Shi Huangdi puzzled, and many ministers were inexplicably relieved.

But he didn't dare to relax, because he was afraid that the Marquis might have some ideas, so don't involve himself!
"Sir, why did you refuse? Would you even refuse to ask you to solve my problems?"

The First Emperor's tone could be heard to be very displeased, refuting him in front of so many ministers!
"Your Majesty, of course I am very willing to serve Daqin's officials who are not doing practical things."

"However, there are more important things than this." Chang Yu raised his head and stared at Shi Huangdi.

"Zhao Gao hasn't been caught yet, I have to..." He didn't finish his sentence, but expressed his determination.

Hu Hai is dead, Zhao Gao must die too, it must be a disaster to keep him here, no one knows when he will come back.

It is certainly imperative to review bureaucrats everywhere, but it seems insignificant compared to Zhao Gao.

He didn't need to do anything at all, just let Li Si and Feng Quji do it casually, it was enough to handle it.

Of course Li Si knew what Chang Yu meant, he immediately stepped out and begged for orders: "Your Majesty, sir is right!"

"It's too much for him to do these things. Just let Prime Minister Feng and I do it."

"Then Zhao Gao crossed the sea with a lie, deceived the emperor, and used himself as a substitute to die..."

"Hiding behind the scenes to manipulate anti-Qin people is really the root of my Great Qin's disaster!"

"If you don't get rid of the real Zhao Gao as soon as possible, I'm afraid..." Li Si cupped his hands slightly.

Feng Quji did the same. He walked out and raised his hands to the First Emperor: "Please, Your Majesty, fulfill the Marquis' proposal."

"It's not easy for the king to take action on this matter, and only Hou Ye can act on his behalf. I think the king will be satisfied."

Feng Quji is worthy of being one of the prime ministers. It can be said that he made a double entendre and directly pointed out Chang Yu's intentions.

What he is doing now is not convenient for the first emperor to deal with it.

For example, when Hu Hai was beheaded, the First Emperor must not take action, which would cause a lot of public opinion.

At that time, it will be confirmed that the appearance of a tyrant will make the common people think that the first emperor will not recognize his relatives when he became cruel.

The so-called tiger venom is not like eating children, as the first emperor, no matter what he does, it can affect the whole body.

Only Chang Yu, who is both Lord Hou and Tai Tuo, who holds Shang Fang's sword and the right to cut first and play later, did it.

After the two prime ministers came out, many ministers also stood up and pleaded: "Your Majesty, follow what Lord Hou said!"

From their point of view, as long as Zhao Gao survives, they are suspicious of using it, regardless of whether there is any treachery in their hearts.

Or, if they already knew that Zhao Gao was not dead, many people would have their own thoughts or something.

After all, in the face of absolute interests, I believe no one can refuse.

Zhao Gao must die so that they can be safe.

And those who can do this, look at the whole of Daqin... Chang Yu is the one who has been fighting with Zhao Gao since the beginning.

In fact, the original intention of the first emperor was the same.

However, he thinks that dealing with Zhao Gao should not be put on the bright side, otherwise Chang Yu will be very dangerous.

No one knows if there are any followers of Zhao Gao in Xianyang Palace.

In case, he directly accepts Chang Yu's fate, then Zhao Gao will know about it, so that he can attack him first.

This is putting Chang Yu in a passive position with his own hands, which is really dangerous.

But he never thought that Chang Yu didn't see what he was thinking, and asked for this in front of so many people.

Li Si and Feng Quji are the left and right prime ministers, and they didn't realize the meaning of this level, which really made Emperor Shihuang say that he couldn't help it!

However, with so many ministers coming forward to ask for orders, it can be said that it was difficult for the first emperor to ride a tiger.

Sighing lightly, Emperor Shi Huang nodded and began to make appointments in a solemn tone.

"Since it is the request of Lord Hou, then I will start appointing you!"

"Thank you, my lord!" Chang Yu's voice was calm, without any emotional fluctuations, but he was still kneeling on the ground.

"Feng Quji, two prime ministers, Li Si!" The First Emperor waved his hand, "I formally appoint you to wait..."

Feng Quji and Li Si took half a step back and slightly arched their hands, accepting the appointment officially authorized by the first emperor.

From now on, they will be responsible for the style of the entire Daqin bureaucracy.

Thoroughly remove the moths dormant in Daqin, and return the common people to a healthy and stable living environment.

At this point, the moths dormant in Xianyang City have been uprooted.

If there are still things that have not been found... they will be executed after collecting the relevant information.

I believe that under this kind of pressure, no one dares to go one step further.

The heavy rain was still torrential, and Emperor Shihuang was also deeply exhausted, so he sat down on the dragon chair and waved his hands: "Everyone back off, back off..."

Enough happened tonight, he has reached the limit of his psychological endurance...whether it is Zhao Gao or Hu Hai's various bad things.

He never thought that there would be so many problematic people hiding right under his nose.

He always thought that his methods were so ruthless that those ministers should be afraid of him.

But he never thought that after he unified the six countries, in order to strengthen his rule over various places, he had already reduced his deterrence to these ministers to a minimum.

Coupled with the fact that Zhao Gao was around, all kinds of rumors were tempted by interests, I believe they resisted the temptation at the beginning, but they never thought...

Fortunately, Chang Yu was there, so Emperor Shihuang knew that the most serious place...

Not in the frontier, but by my side, right under my nose.

When the ministers slowly retreated from Xianyang Palace like a tide, Chang Yu still knelt on the ground.

Li Si and Feng Quji hadn't left yet, they were the few people who saw through Chang Yu's behavior.

At the end when the ministers walked out of the palace gate and the guards closed the palace gate, they were about to go to help Chang Yu, but the first emperor who had been anxious for a long time rushed down first, and tremblingly threw Chang Yu who had knelt on the ground for a long time. Helped him up: "Sir! Why are you doing this! You know very well that if you don't kneel, I won't..."

Before the First Emperor finished speaking his concerned words, Chang Yu waved his hands tiredly and smiled bitterly: "If I don't kneel, how can I convince the public?"

"No matter what you say, I will eventually Hu Hai..." Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by the First Emperor.

"Sir, to be honest, I have known about Hu Hai from the very beginning." The First Emperor sighed softly.

Chang Yu was no longer calm: "What?" Immediately, he thought about it again, but it wasn't very strange.

Hu Hai is his son, what kind of fart does the son stick up his butt, as a father, can he not understand?

Indeed, as Chang Yu guessed, the First Emperor said: "From the time Zhao Gao was executed, I knew there was something wrong with Hu Hai."

"Even if he is my son, he is still Zhao Gao's student. He spends far more time with Zhao Gao than with me."

"Zhao Gao has anti-Qin intentions and has so many plans secretly. How could Hu Hai, his student, get away with it?"
