"That's why the father is not ignorant of the consequences of killing King Youxian, but rather knowing the consequences and letting the general kill him."

"As a result, the Xiongnu rebelled and fought again on the grasslands. Not only was the strength of the general greatly reduced, but he was also unable to separate himself."

Shen Bing nodded.

Then he said:

"This is one of them."

Fu Suqi said:

"Any other reason?"

Shen Bing nodded and said:

"The other reasons are not because of the emperor, but because of the son."

Fu Su was confused when he heard it:

"The general's intention...is that the emperor is worried about helping Su? Do you think that Fusu will join the general in making trouble?"

"No, absolutely impossible!"

Shen Bing cupped his hands and replied:

"Master Mingjian, this subordinate thinks that it is not because the emperor is worried about son, but because someone in the court does not want son to succeed to the throne."

Shen Bing felt that it was already this time, and he couldn't do without talking.

Otherwise, what if one day, like in history, Zhao Gao came to falsely preach an imperial decree to Fusu to commit suicide and Shen Bing was not by Fusu's side... What if Fusu really committed suicide?Did Shen Bing have to admit defeat or rebel?

Now at least I can remind Fusu to be mentally prepared.

But of course Fusu didn't believe it, he shook his head and said:

"Father is not in doubt, it is too early to talk about succession at this time."

"No one will harm me because of this!"

"General, worry too much!"

Chapter 481 Resignation

What Fusu said still had some truth.

At this time, Ying Zheng was only 40 years old. In history, he died at the age of 50, which means that there are still ten years from now.

Given that Yingzheng's health is not bad, it is indeed too early to consider succession.

But this is not the case for Shen Bing...

If, other things have changed because of Shen Bing's arrival.

For example, the timing of Qin's unification of the six countries was advanced, and even the defeat of the Huns was advanced. Does that mean that Ying Zheng's death is not strange?

Shen Bing asked back:

"Young master, do you still remember that Shen Bing was transferred to Hetao after the young master went through training with Shen Bing?"

Fu Su recalled it, then nodded:

"As the general said, Fusu also felt a little strange at the beginning."

"I heard from the general at this time... Could it be that it was done on purpose?"

Shen Bing nodded and said:

"Some people don't want your son to return to Xianyang."

"After that, they can overturn the clouds and rain in Xianyang to set up others."

Fusu seemed to make sense, especially when he wanted to go back to Xianyang Miansheng several times but was unable to achieve it for some inexplicable reason.

For example, the father is playing in other places, or the father is hunting...

Originally, Fusu thought it was just a coincidence, but now that Shen Bing said it, it seemed that it really meant something like that.

Thinking of this, Fusu frowned and asked:

"Then, in the opinion of the general, who will harm Fusu in the court?"

Shen Bing didn't answer and asked instead:

"My lord only needs to consider two points."

"First, if the young master is in power, who will be his prime minister, and who in the court will lose power because of this."

"Secondly, who in the court can control the emperor's thoughts intentionally or unintentionally."

Fusu thought for a while, then replied:

"If Fusu takes the position, he must be a great general, then..."

"The one who lost power is the current Prime Minister Li Si."

"And the only one who can influence Father Emperor's thoughts intentionally or unintentionally is... Zhao Gao!"

Thinking of this Fusu's face lost all color in an instant, and said:

"After being told by the general, Fusu remembered."

"Ever since Father decided to let Fusu train with the General, something was wrong with Zhao Gao."

"He seems...not happy to see Fusu follow the general."

Shen Bing replied:

"Young Master, he studied under the great Confucian Chun Yuyue before."

"Shen Bing is not a villain, but Chun Yuyue cares too much about etiquette and morality, and has no intentions and no military power."

"If the young master followed Chunyu Yue, Zhao Gao and his party probably didn't pay attention to the young master and Chunyu Yue at all."

"But the young master followed his subordinates to practice..."

Fu Su nodded heavily and said:

"The general is right."

"If Fusu travels with the master, he will be slaughtered."

"However, following the experience of a great general means that he has the military power in his hands, and what he learns is also the art of warfare and killing, which is naturally different."

"That's why Zhao Gao and the others are under more pressure."

"They transferred the general to Hetao, but they actually wanted to send Fusu out of the fortress, or even wanted to use the hands of the Huns to get rid of Fusu and the general."

"I just don't want the general to develop a wasteland in Hetao into a fertile land in just a few years."

"First defeat the Yue clan and then take over the Western Regions, and at this time conquer the Xiongnu to increase their power."

As he spoke, Fusu suddenly knelt down towards Shen Bing and said:

"General, save me."

"Fusu only thinks that the world will be peaceful when all the world returns to Da Qin, and he doesn't want to be in danger, but he doesn't know it."

"If the general hadn't pointed it out, Fusu might have lost his life in the dream without knowing why."

"The general will save me..."

Shen Bing quickly helped Fusu up, saying:

"Why do you have to do such a big gift, son?"

"Whether it's for the country or for oneself, it's Shen Bing's duty to assist the young master."

"Young master, don't worry, Shen Bing will definitely not let that traitor succeed."

Fu Su calmed down a bit, and asked:

"But now... the emperor ordered the general to behead You Xianwang, what should I do?"

This is indeed a problem.

It can also be said that Ying Zheng is testing Shen Bing.

If Shen Bing had any objections, then he would simply rebel if he was forced by Ying Zheng at this time.

But if Shen Bing had no objection, or if he had objection but dared not, he could only obey the order to kill Youxian King and let the grassland resume the war.

Therefore, killing or not killing is not a good choice for Shen Bing.

Shen Bing thought for a while and said:

"For now, the only thing I can do is to ask for my resignation."

Fu Suqi said:

"Please resign?"

Shen Bing nodded, then took a pen and paper and wrote a letter.

The content of the letter could not be that he lacked ability and suffered some injuries in the battle, and then changed the subject and said:

"If you were to behead You Xianwang and others to show the public according to the imperial decree, there would be chaos on the grassland."

"Shen Bing's ability is limited and he thinks he is unable to suppress it, and he may cause disaster to the Central Plains."

"So I ask the emperor to use others as generals to guard Longcheng, and Shen Bing is willing to return to Xianyang to wait for his punishment."

Fusu was not good at power, so he couldn't help feeling nervous when he saw what was said in the letter, and asked:

"General, if the emperor really transfers you back to Xianyang."

"At that time, I will have neither power nor power, how can I fight with Zhao Gao and others?"

Shen Bing replied:

"Do you think there are others who can suppress the situation in the grassland?"

Fusu couldn't help but "oh", then nodded:

"What the general said is right."

"If the general is here, they hope that the grassland will be in chaos, so they want to kill King Youxian."

"If the general returns to Xianyang, even if he doesn't kill You Xian Wang, the grassland will fight on his own and fight again."

"So the emperor can only withdraw his order."

Shen Bing nodded and replied:

"Besides this reason, Zhao Gao and others don't want me to wait to return to Xianyang."

"If we go back to Xianyang, with the identity of the young master and the prestige of Shen Bing, they will not be able to overthrow the clouds."

Fu Su nodded again and again, then breathed a sigh of relief, and said:

"Fortunately, there is a general. If this matter is Fusu, I don't know how to deal with it."

Shen Bing said again:

"Young Master, do you think this is the end of the matter?"

Fusu asked:

"Are there any other dangers?"

Shen Bing nodded and said:

"Even if the emperor withdraws his order, what if Zhao Gao and others secretly let out the news that the emperor ordered Shen Bing to kill King Youxian?"

Fusu couldn't help but change his face, and said:

"The Right Wise King and the Huns under his command are like frightened birds at this time."

"If you hear about this... I'm afraid it will be reversed first."

Shen Bing nodded.

Although Fusu didn't consider everything comprehensively, he could analyze the result with just one mention.

Fusu asked again:
