Great Qin State Teacher
Chapter 57
There are many mountains in the Shu land, and it is not uncommon to see rugged and steep places, so there is a saying that the Shu Road is difficult.
It was too difficult to find out the mountain in his dream, not to mention that there were no photos for him to filter through at this time, and he could only know which mountain in his dream it was only when he arrived in Sichuan.
But going to Shu... Xu Fu was a little hesitant.
Whether it is by carriage or on horseback, he finds it very difficult to go to Shu, not to mention that when he gets to a difficult place, he may have to dismount and walk, or he will have to climb mountains and mountains, and lose the luxurious bed of the palace. The personal service of the palace servants, not to mention the tonic soup delivered to him every morning... Xu Fu thought about it, and felt that he immediately dispelled the desire to leave Xianyang City.
Ying Zheng changed his clothes and turned around, only to find that Xu Fu was still holding his hands, sitting on the edge of the bed with a erratic expression, as if lost in thought.
Ying Zheng glanced over his loose neckline, and said casually, "Why did you suddenly ask about Shu?"
"Treat the flood!" Xu Fu blurted out without hearing what Ying Zheng said.
"What is the relationship between mountains and flood control?"
He didn't know, but the warning in the dream wouldn't happen for no reason, he didn't take a look and felt uncomfortable.
Fine!
How can we be afraid of the difficulties and obstacles on the road?
Xu Fu gritted his teeth, "There is something weird about the hexagram, I want to go to Sichuan to have a look."
Yingzheng didn't listen to the other words, but as soon as the words "Go to Shu" came into his ears, Yingzheng's face changed, "Why is this so? What's so weird about the hexagram? It's weird, and you don't need to go to Shu. I appoint so many officials, if no one can solve this matter, then what's the use of them?"
Lu Buwei angered him, so he was moved to Shu, now Xu Fu asked to go to Shu, what's going on?
Ying Zheng's face darkened.
What does the land of Shu look like, how...how is he willing to let Xu Fu go there?
When Ying Zheng stopped him, Xu Fu became more determined.
He also traveled to many places in his previous life, and learned some knowledge and experience from all over the place. Now that he came to Qin, which is completely unfamiliar, he can't stay in Fengchang Temple, stay in the palace, and can't even step out of Xianyang City. Bar?What's the point of sitting in a well and watching the sky?
"This is an important matter for the family and the country. I'll go and find out. If I can help, wouldn't it be a good thing?" Having made a decision in his heart, Xu Fu's face became calmer, and his eyes showed firmness.
If someone else had said such a thing, Ying Zheng would have agreed a long time ago, but the person who made this request was Xu Fu, and Ying Zheng felt unhappy anyway.
He is now the King of Qin who holds great power, and regardless of other things, at least he can do whatever he wants when it comes to Xu Fu's going or staying.
"The road is difficult and dangerous. If there is an accident, what should I do?" Ying Zheng said coldly with a sullen face.
But I had an accident, and it has nothing to do with you. You, Qin Shihuang, should not care about a small person like me. After a few years, you will forget it completely.Xu Fu secretly said in his heart.What's more, who said that if he goes to Sichuan, there will be accidents?He is a magic stick, and even Qin Shihuang can be fooled, so why don't he just run away and die?The more Xu Fu thought about it, the more he felt that his previous worries were nothing.
Ying Zheng didn't know that his refusal had the opposite effect.
Xu Fu's nature is like this, the more he is not allowed to do something, the more he wants to do something, and he is often so tenacious that it makes people bloody angry.
"I want to go to Sichuan." Xu Fu changed the phrase, biting the word "want" hard.
Since it is useless to understand it with reason, it is only possible to move it with emotion.
Facing Xu Fu's firm eyes, Ying Zheng keenly sensed that Xu Fu's insistence on going to Shu was not just because of the floods as he said. A suspicion suddenly rose in Ying Zheng's heart, but his face was calm and showed no emotion , he asked in a deep voice: "What attracts you in Shu?"
Ying Zheng's eyes were dark, and when he stared at Xu Fu, they were so deep that he couldn't see to the bottom.
It is obviously impossible for Xu Fu to tell Ying Zheng, because he had a weird dream, so he stubbornly wants to go to Shu, isn't that sick?Xu Fu himself thought he was crazy.
"Because..." Xu Fu said casually, "I want to go back to the teacher's school."
Ying Zheng: "..."
He really couldn't bear to expose Xu Fu's lies.
Where is Ghost Valley?It is clearly the opposite direction to Nashu!Why go back and forth to the teacher's gate?
Xu Fu was talking nonsense so casually, did he lie to him indiscriminately, or was Xu Fu not familiar with Guigu at all?Ying Zheng stopped his doubts and finally let go, "It's fine to go to the territory, but you have to bring a few people with you."
If Xu Fu really wanted to lie to him...
Ying Zheng thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't even be cruel.
He couldn't find out Xu Fu's origin, so he was more wary of Xu Fu before, but now his mind towards Xu Fu has changed, even if he finds out that Xu Fu is deceiving him, he can only pretend not to see it.No matter what plans Xu Fu has in his mind, he will never be harmed. Let's take a step back and say, if Xu Fu really has other plans, wouldn't he just do whatever he wants to do to Xu Fu at that time?This is really a good excuse to "dispose of" Xu Fu.
When all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, it was only a moment.
Xu Fu didn't expect Ying Zheng to be so gloomy just now, refusing to give an inch, and suddenly let go so quickly.
Could it be that he was moved by his firmness and sincerity?
"My Majesty and I want to go together. It is really inconvenient for me to go alone. If I can bring a few more people, my safety will be guaranteed." No matter what Qin Shihuang thought, he just agreed.
Xu Fu smiled a little at Ying Zhengzhan.
Ying Zheng's mind couldn't help but fluctuate slightly, facing Xu Fu's face, he couldn't say anything to blame.
Yingzheng ordered Zhao Gao to choose an attendant for Xu Fu, and the treatment was no different from that of a prince.
After convincing Ying Zheng, Xu Fu's tense heart was relieved, and he was not having that dream. If Xu Fu hadn't believed in his memory, he would have suspected that the dream of that night was It's not that he was thinking about it, so he fabricated such a picture by himself.
Xiong Yi was forced to recuperate in the Changping Lord's Mansion for several days, and the witchcraft case came to an end. In the end, Xiong Yi only lost a dog leg.
But that Bai Yao gradually lost sight of him, Xu Fu didn't pay too much attention to this person, but he just admired him when he saw him for the first time, and he had nothing to do with him at first, so he didn't pay much attention to the follow-up matters.
When the witchcraft case came to an end, it meant that Xu Fu was going back to Fengchang Temple.
This was probably the last time he went to Fengchang Temple before leaving Xianyang City.
After Xu Fu washed and changed his clothes, he arrived at Fengchang Temple.
Everyone looked at him with complicated eyes. He was sent to investigate the witchcraft case, and they all thought it was a thankless job. Xu Fu was not sure what kind of trouble he would end up in.But who knew, but after a short period of time, the witchcraft case was solved so easily, a group of people were killed and some were convicted, and Xu Fu easily became famous because of this errand.
Nowadays, no one in Xianyang city knows that on the day of the grand Nuo, there was a witchcraft incident in the palace, and now Xu Taibu, who is in charge of investigating the witchcraft incident, solved the matter very smoothly.
The common people may not know what kind of official position Tai Bu is, but when Xu Fu is mentioned, they are more or less appreciative.
That's all.
They even wondered if Xu Fu had a disaster physique?Otherwise, anyone who has a quarrel with him will be in bad luck.Now after Xiong Dianshi molested him in every possible way, he has also followed in the footsteps of Qiu Ji and Wang Liu. Oh no, Xiong Dianshi is even more unlucky. Then he became a blood man!
Thinking about it makes people feel shuddering, and involuntarily stays farther away from Xu Fu.
Xu Fu seemed unaware of those strange gazes.
It was still Su Yi who came forward to care about him first. Su Yi really cared about him, and would ask him about his situation without hesitation at any time.
Xu Fuqing's cold expression softened a bit, "I have nothing to do, this time the matter was resolved very smoothly. But..." Xu Fu paused, and decided to tell Su Yi about it first, so that he could have a mental preparation , "I'm going to Shu soon."
Su Yi's complexion changed drastically, and the expression on his usually rigid face was a bit ridiculous now with such a drastic change of expression.
"Didn't you make meritorious service? How could you be moved to Shu by the king?"
Xu Fu felt helpless.
It seems that many people regard going to Shu as a kind of punishment or torture.
Thinking about the scenery of the Land of Abundance that he had been to in his previous life, Xu Fu unconsciously argued for the land of Shu. Unexpectedly, he also disliked the rough roads of the land of Shu before.
"I once predicted a hexagram. The hexagram indicated that there is disaster in Shu. I am going here to deal with this disaster on behalf of the king."
"What hexagram? How come Fengchang Temple has never heard of it?" Su Yi was very surprised.
Woe to Shu, this is a big deal!If Xu Fu was sent there, the meaning would be different. It would no longer be equivalent to exile, but instead represented the king's trust in him. Su Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Fu lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Bring in the bamboo slips. I also want to know who erased the hexagrams I recorded on the bamboo slips."
Su Yi was much more sensitive than Xu Fu in this aspect, and his face changed immediately when he heard this.
"Could it be... Hou Taibu?" Su Yi lowered his voice and hesitated.He also saw Hou Taibu's cruelty and strictness towards Xu Fu, so it was inevitable to suspect Hou Sheng at this time.
Xu Fu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of arrogance flowing between his eyebrows, "Go and ask and you'll know."
Saying that he was about to go out, Su Yi was stunned for a moment, and it was too late to hold him back, "You..." Su Yi originally wanted to persuade him not to rush into conflict with Hou Taibu, Hou Sheng is different from others, he He came to seek refuge with Qin State with his true abilities, and Qin State would naturally give him some preferential treatment. If Xu Fu had a conflict with him, it was hard to say who Fengchang Temple would choose to keep.
Thinking of this, Su Yi suddenly stopped.
No, he was thinking too much.
It's hard to say who Fengchang Temple chooses to preserve, but who the king chooses to preserve... I'm afraid it's clear at a glance...
Su Yi was dumbfounded, and immediately stopped talking.
Xu Fu went directly to the hall where he had met Hou Taibu before.
Hou Taibu was sideways discussing something with other people, seeing Xu Fu approaching, Hou Taibu immediately pushed the people away.
"But something?" Hou Taibu asked calmly.
How dare this Tai Bu Cheng pretend to be extremely innocent!
Even if you see yourself, don't you feel guilty for erasing your hexagram image?
"I came here today, and I want to ask Hou Taibu, how come I was missing from the many verdicts on the bamboo slips? Could it be that the hexagrams I carved on the bamboo slips all grew legs and ran away by themselves? ?" Xu Fuke was not polite at all, and he spoke with a strong sense of mockery.
Hou Taibu looked at Xu Fu coldly, without the slightest sign of shrinking back, "It's not like this is the way for a newcomer to gain the limelight if he wants to be reused."
Hou Sheng didn't know anything, so he rudely positioned him in the position of Bo Fengtou, how unfair to him?It was just one sentence that wantonly obliterated his hard work.
"What does Hou Taibu mean? Does Hou Taibu think that what I said on the bamboo slips was fabricated at will?" Xu Fu confronted Hou Taibu without fear.
"Isn't it? Everyone failed to predict the disaster, but you did it. Could it be that everyone was wrong?" Hou Taibu sneered, "You don't have to argue with me, your divination seems to be deleted by me. That's right. You dare to engrave the two hexagrams that have not been determined on the bamboo slips, not to deliberately win favor, but why?"
"Since everyone failed to figure it out, but I figured it out, do you think I made it up? What a Taibu Cheng! He acted so perfunctorily! You can condemn me at will." Xu Fu sarcastically went back , He paused, and then said: "I don't want to argue with you again on this matter, just delete the content on my bamboo slips at will, and one day, Tai Bu Cheng will bow his head and apologize to me."
Hou Taibu remained unmoved, and said coldly: "Then you just wait for that day."
Xu Fu said coolly, "You don't have to wait too long."
Hou Taibu could not understand the meaning of his words.
But not long after Xu Fu finished speaking, there were noisy voices outside Fengchang Temple.
Seeing an internal servant walk in from outside Fengchang Temple with a cold face, Liu Fengchang had to take someone to greet him immediately, and Xu Fu also went out with Hou Taibu.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the servant raised his voice and said, "The case of witchcraft has been solved, and everyone in Fengchang Temple has been removed from suspicion."
Liu Fengchang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, fortunately they were not implicated because of that Xiong Yi.
The waiter paused for a moment, then said: "Taibu Ling Xu Fu followed the king's order to thoroughly investigate this matter, and he made great contributions to resolving the danger of witchcraft. Now Taibu Ling is promoted to Taibu Cheng."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
Hou Taibu's face also changed slightly.
There should only be one Taibu rank Cheng in the Taibu Department.
Now that Xu Fu has been promoted to Taibo Cheng, what kind of embarrassing position is he placed in?
The rest of the people didn't think as much as Hou Taibu. They looked at Xu Fu with indescribable envy and hatred. How can he not be envied by being promoted so quickly?
The waiter paused again, and said: "No one in the Taibu Office in Fengchang Temple has predicted any disasters. I got it from Xu Taibu today, and the disasters came from the south, so I ordered Xu Taibu to dress up and go with him." Go to Shu to save the flood."
After the servant finished speaking, everyone in Fengchang Temple was shocked.
What?No one predicts disaster?But Xu Fubu came out?What disaster started from the south, how could they not know after counting so many times?
Hou Taibu was even angrier, ignoring that his servant was still in front of him, he immediately scolded Xu Fu angrily: "How old are you? Who did you study under? Can you take such a muddle-headed thing seriously? There is a flood in Shu It’s true! But now it’s just winter, how can there be floods? After learning a little bit, I can’t wait to show it off. If you fool others, how can you afford it? How is it easy to go to Shu? ? If nothing happened, would you still have to apologize with death?"
Hou Taibu was so angry that he almost pointed at Xu Fu's nose and scolded him.
The servant's face suddenly darkened, "Hou Taibu, what are you talking about? This is Wang Ling, what is the meaning of Hou Taibu?"
Without Xu Fu saying a word, the servant blocked Hou Taibu's words back.
Hou Taibu calmed down and said in a deep voice, "I want to see the king."
When Hou Sheng came to seek refuge with the Qin State, he also failed to meet the King of Qin, but the servant thought about the special background of this Hou Taibu, and hesitated: "If you want to see the king, you have to wait for the king to summon you."
Hou Taibu seemed determined to see Yingzheng, he stood there without moving, and said in a low voice, "Then I will wait for the king to summon me."
The servant nodded, and ordered someone to give Xu Fu a new official uniform, and handed over the appointment order to Xu Fu. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, when Xu Fuyun took over the appointment order calmly, he could be considered as a showman.
Xu Fu secretly slandered.
Look, why does he need to make up a hexagram deliberately to show off?
Because of his promotion, Xu Fu naturally couldn't stay in his previous position. Someone had already moved his table case into another hall, and it just so happened that he had a table next to Hou Taibu.
Then Hou Taibu is not young anymore, at least ten years older than Xu Fu, no wonder he is worried, he is well-known in the six kingdoms, and now he comes to Qin, unexpectedly there is someone he has never heard of before. Boy, sitting in the same position as him, putting him in an awkward position, how can Hou Taibu not be angry?
Hou Taibu walked back to the hall with Xu Fu with a cold face, and each sat down.
Someone came to talk to Xu Fu carefully about Taibo Cheng's affairs, Xu Fu listened carefully.When the man finally finished speaking and left, as soon as Xu Fu opened the bamboo slips in front of him, he heard Hou Taibu say: "If you don't listen to my advice, if there is a joke at that time..." Hou Taibu didn't finish speaking, just sneered One sound.
"Hou Taibu just treat me as someone who doesn't know good and bad." Xu Fu said without raising his head.
Hou Taibu gritted his teeth, "I sincerely advise you, why did I delete your hexagrams and judgments before? It's just that I don't want you to go astray... You are so young, don't use it just because you have some skills. I have become the most powerful person in the world..."
Regardless of whether Hou Taibu's words were sincere or false, Xu Fu could not accept it. His hexagrams were said to be deliberately fabricated for the sake of gaining fame.
He returned it lukewarmly, "Although Hou Taibu is old, don't regard yourself as the most powerful person in the world just because he ate a few more bites than others..."
Someone nearby happened to hear such a sentence, and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Looking at Hou Taibu's face again, his face was already soaked in ink.
Hou Taibu finally realized that Xu Fu's docile appearance before was just a fake appearance, but now his eloquence is his real face, Hou Taibu's chest was blocked for a long time, and he wanted to reprimand Xu Fu again, but found that I can't speak to the other party at all.No matter how much he sarcastically scolded, in the end he himself was suffocated until his chest felt tight.
Xu Fu pushed the bamboo slips aside, then got up and walked out.
Today he is going to leave early in a fair manner.
Early tomorrow morning, he was going to take people from Xianyang City to Shu, and Qin Shihuang specifically asked him to return to the palace as soon as possible today, as Qin Shihuang still had something to tell him.If it weren't for the fact that the goal was too big, he would have left with the servant who came to Xuan Wang Ling.
After Xu Fu left, Hou Taibu held his breath for a long time, and finally thought of a word to hurt Xu Fu, but waited and waited for no one to come.
Only then did Hou Taibu realize it.
This kid left Fengchang Temple early again!
Hou Taibu was so angry that he almost accidentally stuck the pen knife in his palm.
As soon as Xu Fu returned to the palace, Zhao Gao brought several attendants to meet Xu Fu.
There are four attendants.
On the way to Sichuan, if people brought too many people, it would be easy for others to covet him, not to mention that Xu Fu originally had a pampered face, so someone would kill him as a son of a rich man.
These four attendants were all carefully selected by Zhao Gao, and their fist and kick skills were not weak.
Xu Fu could only sigh, fortunately he didn't have any martial arts at this time.
Ying Zheng sat in front of the table, frowning slightly.
Xu Fu had memorized the names of those four people, and looking back, Ying Zheng still looked worried.
"Your Majesty?" Xu Fu called softly.
Ying Zheng called a court lady over and said, "If no one waits for you, how can you get used to it? If you don't have someone to serve you, you will also send Ah Liu to you."
The maid named Ah Liu was the one who served Xu Fu to change clothes and wash in the past.
Xu Fu didn't expect Qin Shihuang to be so considerate for himself, but he really didn't need this maid.No one knows how difficult it is to go here, and it is enough to bring a few people for self-defense.Even if it is eating, he can easily handle it with his rich camping experience in his previous life.
"No need." Xu Fu thought for a while, and added, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng's frown could not be loosened, "How can you adapt?"
"Anyway, he will always come back." Xu Fu blurted out.After he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong again.In fact, no matter what, it is impossible for him to spend his whole life in Qin Shihuang's bedroom.Unless he really intends to recommend himself to Qin Shihuang as a lover.
As an asexual, even though Xu Fu had considered the possibility of being a lover with a man, he had never considered the possibility of being sexually abused.
If he recommends himself to Qin Shihuang, he will be the one who will be suppressed at that time!
Xu Fu dismissed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and listened to the servants outside the hall saying: "Your Majesty, Hou Taibu has arrived."
Xu Fu was a little surprised.
Qin Shihuang really summoned Hou Taibu?
Then Hou Taibu stepped over the threshold and came in, and saw Xu Fu standing in the hall at a glance, only he knew what Hou Taibu felt in his heart.
He wanted to see the king and waited to be summoned, but Xu Fu entered the palace as soon as he said yes.Thinking of the many rumors about Xu Fu in Fengchang Temple, Hou Taibu felt even more distressed.That Xu Fu is a talented person, but he doesn't know what restraint is.If the edge is exposed like this, won't it be broken one day?
Hou Sheng had never met the King of Qin. He just heard the decree promulgated by the State of Qin, so he couldn't help coming here. In his impression, the King of Qin should have a stubble and a rough and tough appearance.But when he raised his head, he saw a young man sitting behind the table, his complexion was slightly dark, and he was full of vigor and domineering. The man had a handsome appearance and handsome features. He couldn't help but want to kneel down and fall to the ground.
"Kings……"
Hou Taibu knelt down unconsciously and kowtowed to Yingzheng.
It was only then that Hou Taibu remembered that the current King Qin had just celebrated his 22-year-old coronation ceremony.
But such a young king of Qin is enough for people to appreciate the kingly spirit in him, and Hou Taibu unconsciously felt admiration in his heart.
Before Hou Shenghou Taibu could express his admiration, he listened to King Qin say, "Mr. Hou has been in Qin State for half a month?"
Hou Taibu didn't understand, so he nodded in a daze, "It's been half a month."
The penknife in King Qin's hand scratched across the surface of the table, making a teeth-piercing creaking sound.
Hou Taibu shivered unconsciously.
"Since it's been half a month, but I haven't seen Mr. Hou reveal half of his ability? I heard that Mr. Hou's divination is still quite different from Xu Taibu, so I decided to delete Xu Taibu's judgment?" Ying Zheng His voice was slightly cold, and his tone was extremely flat.
Hou Taibu's arrogance suddenly became much weaker, how could he still be full of spirit when he reprimanded Xu Fu before?
"Since the two of you have disagreements, Mr. Hou must remember to apologize to Xu Taibu after Xu Taibu confirms the hexagram and returns. Even if the hexagram is wrong, then Hou Taibu has to bear his own responsibility. Hou Taibu acted recklessly, and deleted the sentence on the bamboo slips as soon as he said it, so he didn't care about the widow? How can such a big matter be used as a joke?"
After a few words.
Hou Taibu was completely stunned.
"Your Majesty, I..." He had a very good impression of the King of Qin, and he didn't want to make the King of Qin feel bored the moment he showed up. He was a little anxious, but he couldn't say anything to defend himself.
"I also don't want to argue with Hou Taibu. I hope that Hou Taibu will show off his skills in Fengchang Temple after I leave. Let me learn the subtleties of Hou Taibu." Xu Fu suddenly said, although Hou Taibu's embarrassing situation was relieved, but what Xu Fu said made Hou Taibu's face ugly.
Xu Fu cut off the conversation, and Ying Zheng didn't say anything more, and after a few more simple explanations, he sent Hou Taibu out with a cold face.
After Hou Sheng came out of the palace, he suddenly remembered that he clearly came to ask the king why Xu Fu could sit with him and be the Taibu Cheng together?
But when he was questioned by the King of Qin just now, Hou Sheng felt a little guilty. He was dazzled by his fame, and when he came to Qin, he was still proud of himself...
Xu Fu followed closely from inside.
Hou Sheng hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and said, "Xu Taibu, I didn't mean to be joking. It's not easy to go to Shu. Xu Taibu should be careful."
Xu Fu sized him up, and seeing that he still had a cold and serious face, he blinked lazily, "Then I would like to thank Hou Taibu for reminding me."
Then Hou Shengfei said it was for his own good.
Could it be that if you go to Shu, will you be eaten?
It was too difficult to find out the mountain in his dream, not to mention that there were no photos for him to filter through at this time, and he could only know which mountain in his dream it was only when he arrived in Sichuan.
But going to Shu... Xu Fu was a little hesitant.
Whether it is by carriage or on horseback, he finds it very difficult to go to Shu, not to mention that when he gets to a difficult place, he may have to dismount and walk, or he will have to climb mountains and mountains, and lose the luxurious bed of the palace. The personal service of the palace servants, not to mention the tonic soup delivered to him every morning... Xu Fu thought about it, and felt that he immediately dispelled the desire to leave Xianyang City.
Ying Zheng changed his clothes and turned around, only to find that Xu Fu was still holding his hands, sitting on the edge of the bed with a erratic expression, as if lost in thought.
Ying Zheng glanced over his loose neckline, and said casually, "Why did you suddenly ask about Shu?"
"Treat the flood!" Xu Fu blurted out without hearing what Ying Zheng said.
"What is the relationship between mountains and flood control?"
He didn't know, but the warning in the dream wouldn't happen for no reason, he didn't take a look and felt uncomfortable.
Fine!
How can we be afraid of the difficulties and obstacles on the road?
Xu Fu gritted his teeth, "There is something weird about the hexagram, I want to go to Sichuan to have a look."
Yingzheng didn't listen to the other words, but as soon as the words "Go to Shu" came into his ears, Yingzheng's face changed, "Why is this so? What's so weird about the hexagram? It's weird, and you don't need to go to Shu. I appoint so many officials, if no one can solve this matter, then what's the use of them?"
Lu Buwei angered him, so he was moved to Shu, now Xu Fu asked to go to Shu, what's going on?
Ying Zheng's face darkened.
What does the land of Shu look like, how...how is he willing to let Xu Fu go there?
When Ying Zheng stopped him, Xu Fu became more determined.
He also traveled to many places in his previous life, and learned some knowledge and experience from all over the place. Now that he came to Qin, which is completely unfamiliar, he can't stay in Fengchang Temple, stay in the palace, and can't even step out of Xianyang City. Bar?What's the point of sitting in a well and watching the sky?
"This is an important matter for the family and the country. I'll go and find out. If I can help, wouldn't it be a good thing?" Having made a decision in his heart, Xu Fu's face became calmer, and his eyes showed firmness.
If someone else had said such a thing, Ying Zheng would have agreed a long time ago, but the person who made this request was Xu Fu, and Ying Zheng felt unhappy anyway.
He is now the King of Qin who holds great power, and regardless of other things, at least he can do whatever he wants when it comes to Xu Fu's going or staying.
"The road is difficult and dangerous. If there is an accident, what should I do?" Ying Zheng said coldly with a sullen face.
But I had an accident, and it has nothing to do with you. You, Qin Shihuang, should not care about a small person like me. After a few years, you will forget it completely.Xu Fu secretly said in his heart.What's more, who said that if he goes to Sichuan, there will be accidents?He is a magic stick, and even Qin Shihuang can be fooled, so why don't he just run away and die?The more Xu Fu thought about it, the more he felt that his previous worries were nothing.
Ying Zheng didn't know that his refusal had the opposite effect.
Xu Fu's nature is like this, the more he is not allowed to do something, the more he wants to do something, and he is often so tenacious that it makes people bloody angry.
"I want to go to Sichuan." Xu Fu changed the phrase, biting the word "want" hard.
Since it is useless to understand it with reason, it is only possible to move it with emotion.
Facing Xu Fu's firm eyes, Ying Zheng keenly sensed that Xu Fu's insistence on going to Shu was not just because of the floods as he said. A suspicion suddenly rose in Ying Zheng's heart, but his face was calm and showed no emotion , he asked in a deep voice: "What attracts you in Shu?"
Ying Zheng's eyes were dark, and when he stared at Xu Fu, they were so deep that he couldn't see to the bottom.
It is obviously impossible for Xu Fu to tell Ying Zheng, because he had a weird dream, so he stubbornly wants to go to Shu, isn't that sick?Xu Fu himself thought he was crazy.
"Because..." Xu Fu said casually, "I want to go back to the teacher's school."
Ying Zheng: "..."
He really couldn't bear to expose Xu Fu's lies.
Where is Ghost Valley?It is clearly the opposite direction to Nashu!Why go back and forth to the teacher's gate?
Xu Fu was talking nonsense so casually, did he lie to him indiscriminately, or was Xu Fu not familiar with Guigu at all?Ying Zheng stopped his doubts and finally let go, "It's fine to go to the territory, but you have to bring a few people with you."
If Xu Fu really wanted to lie to him...
Ying Zheng thought about it for a long time, but he couldn't even be cruel.
He couldn't find out Xu Fu's origin, so he was more wary of Xu Fu before, but now his mind towards Xu Fu has changed, even if he finds out that Xu Fu is deceiving him, he can only pretend not to see it.No matter what plans Xu Fu has in his mind, he will never be harmed. Let's take a step back and say, if Xu Fu really has other plans, wouldn't he just do whatever he wants to do to Xu Fu at that time?This is really a good excuse to "dispose of" Xu Fu.
When all kinds of thoughts flashed through his mind, it was only a moment.
Xu Fu didn't expect Ying Zheng to be so gloomy just now, refusing to give an inch, and suddenly let go so quickly.
Could it be that he was moved by his firmness and sincerity?
"My Majesty and I want to go together. It is really inconvenient for me to go alone. If I can bring a few more people, my safety will be guaranteed." No matter what Qin Shihuang thought, he just agreed.
Xu Fu smiled a little at Ying Zhengzhan.
Ying Zheng's mind couldn't help but fluctuate slightly, facing Xu Fu's face, he couldn't say anything to blame.
Yingzheng ordered Zhao Gao to choose an attendant for Xu Fu, and the treatment was no different from that of a prince.
After convincing Ying Zheng, Xu Fu's tense heart was relieved, and he was not having that dream. If Xu Fu hadn't believed in his memory, he would have suspected that the dream of that night was It's not that he was thinking about it, so he fabricated such a picture by himself.
Xiong Yi was forced to recuperate in the Changping Lord's Mansion for several days, and the witchcraft case came to an end. In the end, Xiong Yi only lost a dog leg.
But that Bai Yao gradually lost sight of him, Xu Fu didn't pay too much attention to this person, but he just admired him when he saw him for the first time, and he had nothing to do with him at first, so he didn't pay much attention to the follow-up matters.
When the witchcraft case came to an end, it meant that Xu Fu was going back to Fengchang Temple.
This was probably the last time he went to Fengchang Temple before leaving Xianyang City.
After Xu Fu washed and changed his clothes, he arrived at Fengchang Temple.
Everyone looked at him with complicated eyes. He was sent to investigate the witchcraft case, and they all thought it was a thankless job. Xu Fu was not sure what kind of trouble he would end up in.But who knew, but after a short period of time, the witchcraft case was solved so easily, a group of people were killed and some were convicted, and Xu Fu easily became famous because of this errand.
Nowadays, no one in Xianyang city knows that on the day of the grand Nuo, there was a witchcraft incident in the palace, and now Xu Taibu, who is in charge of investigating the witchcraft incident, solved the matter very smoothly.
The common people may not know what kind of official position Tai Bu is, but when Xu Fu is mentioned, they are more or less appreciative.
That's all.
They even wondered if Xu Fu had a disaster physique?Otherwise, anyone who has a quarrel with him will be in bad luck.Now after Xiong Dianshi molested him in every possible way, he has also followed in the footsteps of Qiu Ji and Wang Liu. Oh no, Xiong Dianshi is even more unlucky. Then he became a blood man!
Thinking about it makes people feel shuddering, and involuntarily stays farther away from Xu Fu.
Xu Fu seemed unaware of those strange gazes.
It was still Su Yi who came forward to care about him first. Su Yi really cared about him, and would ask him about his situation without hesitation at any time.
Xu Fuqing's cold expression softened a bit, "I have nothing to do, this time the matter was resolved very smoothly. But..." Xu Fu paused, and decided to tell Su Yi about it first, so that he could have a mental preparation , "I'm going to Shu soon."
Su Yi's complexion changed drastically, and the expression on his usually rigid face was a bit ridiculous now with such a drastic change of expression.
"Didn't you make meritorious service? How could you be moved to Shu by the king?"
Xu Fu felt helpless.
It seems that many people regard going to Shu as a kind of punishment or torture.
Thinking about the scenery of the Land of Abundance that he had been to in his previous life, Xu Fu unconsciously argued for the land of Shu. Unexpectedly, he also disliked the rough roads of the land of Shu before.
"I once predicted a hexagram. The hexagram indicated that there is disaster in Shu. I am going here to deal with this disaster on behalf of the king."
"What hexagram? How come Fengchang Temple has never heard of it?" Su Yi was very surprised.
Woe to Shu, this is a big deal!If Xu Fu was sent there, the meaning would be different. It would no longer be equivalent to exile, but instead represented the king's trust in him. Su Yi secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Xu Fu lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Bring in the bamboo slips. I also want to know who erased the hexagrams I recorded on the bamboo slips."
Su Yi was much more sensitive than Xu Fu in this aspect, and his face changed immediately when he heard this.
"Could it be... Hou Taibu?" Su Yi lowered his voice and hesitated.He also saw Hou Taibu's cruelty and strictness towards Xu Fu, so it was inevitable to suspect Hou Sheng at this time.
Xu Fu raised his eyebrows slightly, with a hint of arrogance flowing between his eyebrows, "Go and ask and you'll know."
Saying that he was about to go out, Su Yi was stunned for a moment, and it was too late to hold him back, "You..." Su Yi originally wanted to persuade him not to rush into conflict with Hou Taibu, Hou Sheng is different from others, he He came to seek refuge with Qin State with his true abilities, and Qin State would naturally give him some preferential treatment. If Xu Fu had a conflict with him, it was hard to say who Fengchang Temple would choose to keep.
Thinking of this, Su Yi suddenly stopped.
No, he was thinking too much.
It's hard to say who Fengchang Temple chooses to preserve, but who the king chooses to preserve... I'm afraid it's clear at a glance...
Su Yi was dumbfounded, and immediately stopped talking.
Xu Fu went directly to the hall where he had met Hou Taibu before.
Hou Taibu was sideways discussing something with other people, seeing Xu Fu approaching, Hou Taibu immediately pushed the people away.
"But something?" Hou Taibu asked calmly.
How dare this Tai Bu Cheng pretend to be extremely innocent!
Even if you see yourself, don't you feel guilty for erasing your hexagram image?
"I came here today, and I want to ask Hou Taibu, how come I was missing from the many verdicts on the bamboo slips? Could it be that the hexagrams I carved on the bamboo slips all grew legs and ran away by themselves? ?" Xu Fuke was not polite at all, and he spoke with a strong sense of mockery.
Hou Taibu looked at Xu Fu coldly, without the slightest sign of shrinking back, "It's not like this is the way for a newcomer to gain the limelight if he wants to be reused."
Hou Sheng didn't know anything, so he rudely positioned him in the position of Bo Fengtou, how unfair to him?It was just one sentence that wantonly obliterated his hard work.
"What does Hou Taibu mean? Does Hou Taibu think that what I said on the bamboo slips was fabricated at will?" Xu Fu confronted Hou Taibu without fear.
"Isn't it? Everyone failed to predict the disaster, but you did it. Could it be that everyone was wrong?" Hou Taibu sneered, "You don't have to argue with me, your divination seems to be deleted by me. That's right. You dare to engrave the two hexagrams that have not been determined on the bamboo slips, not to deliberately win favor, but why?"
"Since everyone failed to figure it out, but I figured it out, do you think I made it up? What a Taibu Cheng! He acted so perfunctorily! You can condemn me at will." Xu Fu sarcastically went back , He paused, and then said: "I don't want to argue with you again on this matter, just delete the content on my bamboo slips at will, and one day, Tai Bu Cheng will bow his head and apologize to me."
Hou Taibu remained unmoved, and said coldly: "Then you just wait for that day."
Xu Fu said coolly, "You don't have to wait too long."
Hou Taibu could not understand the meaning of his words.
But not long after Xu Fu finished speaking, there were noisy voices outside Fengchang Temple.
Seeing an internal servant walk in from outside Fengchang Temple with a cold face, Liu Fengchang had to take someone to greet him immediately, and Xu Fu also went out with Hou Taibu.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, the servant raised his voice and said, "The case of witchcraft has been solved, and everyone in Fengchang Temple has been removed from suspicion."
Liu Fengchang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking, fortunately they were not implicated because of that Xiong Yi.
The waiter paused for a moment, then said: "Taibu Ling Xu Fu followed the king's order to thoroughly investigate this matter, and he made great contributions to resolving the danger of witchcraft. Now Taibu Ling is promoted to Taibu Cheng."
As soon as this statement came out, everyone was shocked.
Hou Taibu's face also changed slightly.
There should only be one Taibu rank Cheng in the Taibu Department.
Now that Xu Fu has been promoted to Taibo Cheng, what kind of embarrassing position is he placed in?
The rest of the people didn't think as much as Hou Taibu. They looked at Xu Fu with indescribable envy and hatred. How can he not be envied by being promoted so quickly?
The waiter paused again, and said: "No one in the Taibu Office in Fengchang Temple has predicted any disasters. I got it from Xu Taibu today, and the disasters came from the south, so I ordered Xu Taibu to dress up and go with him." Go to Shu to save the flood."
After the servant finished speaking, everyone in Fengchang Temple was shocked.
What?No one predicts disaster?But Xu Fubu came out?What disaster started from the south, how could they not know after counting so many times?
Hou Taibu was even angrier, ignoring that his servant was still in front of him, he immediately scolded Xu Fu angrily: "How old are you? Who did you study under? Can you take such a muddle-headed thing seriously? There is a flood in Shu It’s true! But now it’s just winter, how can there be floods? After learning a little bit, I can’t wait to show it off. If you fool others, how can you afford it? How is it easy to go to Shu? ? If nothing happened, would you still have to apologize with death?"
Hou Taibu was so angry that he almost pointed at Xu Fu's nose and scolded him.
The servant's face suddenly darkened, "Hou Taibu, what are you talking about? This is Wang Ling, what is the meaning of Hou Taibu?"
Without Xu Fu saying a word, the servant blocked Hou Taibu's words back.
Hou Taibu calmed down and said in a deep voice, "I want to see the king."
When Hou Sheng came to seek refuge with the Qin State, he also failed to meet the King of Qin, but the servant thought about the special background of this Hou Taibu, and hesitated: "If you want to see the king, you have to wait for the king to summon you."
Hou Taibu seemed determined to see Yingzheng, he stood there without moving, and said in a low voice, "Then I will wait for the king to summon me."
The servant nodded, and ordered someone to give Xu Fu a new official uniform, and handed over the appointment order to Xu Fu. Under the watchful eyes of everyone, when Xu Fuyun took over the appointment order calmly, he could be considered as a showman.
Xu Fu secretly slandered.
Look, why does he need to make up a hexagram deliberately to show off?
Because of his promotion, Xu Fu naturally couldn't stay in his previous position. Someone had already moved his table case into another hall, and it just so happened that he had a table next to Hou Taibu.
Then Hou Taibu is not young anymore, at least ten years older than Xu Fu, no wonder he is worried, he is well-known in the six kingdoms, and now he comes to Qin, unexpectedly there is someone he has never heard of before. Boy, sitting in the same position as him, putting him in an awkward position, how can Hou Taibu not be angry?
Hou Taibu walked back to the hall with Xu Fu with a cold face, and each sat down.
Someone came to talk to Xu Fu carefully about Taibo Cheng's affairs, Xu Fu listened carefully.When the man finally finished speaking and left, as soon as Xu Fu opened the bamboo slips in front of him, he heard Hou Taibu say: "If you don't listen to my advice, if there is a joke at that time..." Hou Taibu didn't finish speaking, just sneered One sound.
"Hou Taibu just treat me as someone who doesn't know good and bad." Xu Fu said without raising his head.
Hou Taibu gritted his teeth, "I sincerely advise you, why did I delete your hexagrams and judgments before? It's just that I don't want you to go astray... You are so young, don't use it just because you have some skills. I have become the most powerful person in the world..."
Regardless of whether Hou Taibu's words were sincere or false, Xu Fu could not accept it. His hexagrams were said to be deliberately fabricated for the sake of gaining fame.
He returned it lukewarmly, "Although Hou Taibu is old, don't regard yourself as the most powerful person in the world just because he ate a few more bites than others..."
Someone nearby happened to hear such a sentence, and almost couldn't help laughing out loud.
Looking at Hou Taibu's face again, his face was already soaked in ink.
Hou Taibu finally realized that Xu Fu's docile appearance before was just a fake appearance, but now his eloquence is his real face, Hou Taibu's chest was blocked for a long time, and he wanted to reprimand Xu Fu again, but found that I can't speak to the other party at all.No matter how much he sarcastically scolded, in the end he himself was suffocated until his chest felt tight.
Xu Fu pushed the bamboo slips aside, then got up and walked out.
Today he is going to leave early in a fair manner.
Early tomorrow morning, he was going to take people from Xianyang City to Shu, and Qin Shihuang specifically asked him to return to the palace as soon as possible today, as Qin Shihuang still had something to tell him.If it weren't for the fact that the goal was too big, he would have left with the servant who came to Xuan Wang Ling.
After Xu Fu left, Hou Taibu held his breath for a long time, and finally thought of a word to hurt Xu Fu, but waited and waited for no one to come.
Only then did Hou Taibu realize it.
This kid left Fengchang Temple early again!
Hou Taibu was so angry that he almost accidentally stuck the pen knife in his palm.
As soon as Xu Fu returned to the palace, Zhao Gao brought several attendants to meet Xu Fu.
There are four attendants.
On the way to Sichuan, if people brought too many people, it would be easy for others to covet him, not to mention that Xu Fu originally had a pampered face, so someone would kill him as a son of a rich man.
These four attendants were all carefully selected by Zhao Gao, and their fist and kick skills were not weak.
Xu Fu could only sigh, fortunately he didn't have any martial arts at this time.
Ying Zheng sat in front of the table, frowning slightly.
Xu Fu had memorized the names of those four people, and looking back, Ying Zheng still looked worried.
"Your Majesty?" Xu Fu called softly.
Ying Zheng called a court lady over and said, "If no one waits for you, how can you get used to it? If you don't have someone to serve you, you will also send Ah Liu to you."
The maid named Ah Liu was the one who served Xu Fu to change clothes and wash in the past.
Xu Fu didn't expect Qin Shihuang to be so considerate for himself, but he really didn't need this maid.No one knows how difficult it is to go here, and it is enough to bring a few people for self-defense.Even if it is eating, he can easily handle it with his rich camping experience in his previous life.
"No need." Xu Fu thought for a while, and added, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng's frown could not be loosened, "How can you adapt?"
"Anyway, he will always come back." Xu Fu blurted out.After he finished speaking, he felt something was wrong again.In fact, no matter what, it is impossible for him to spend his whole life in Qin Shihuang's bedroom.Unless he really intends to recommend himself to Qin Shihuang as a lover.
As an asexual, even though Xu Fu had considered the possibility of being a lover with a man, he had never considered the possibility of being sexually abused.
If he recommends himself to Qin Shihuang, he will be the one who will be suppressed at that time!
Xu Fu dismissed the chaotic thoughts in his mind, and listened to the servants outside the hall saying: "Your Majesty, Hou Taibu has arrived."
Xu Fu was a little surprised.
Qin Shihuang really summoned Hou Taibu?
Then Hou Taibu stepped over the threshold and came in, and saw Xu Fu standing in the hall at a glance, only he knew what Hou Taibu felt in his heart.
He wanted to see the king and waited to be summoned, but Xu Fu entered the palace as soon as he said yes.Thinking of the many rumors about Xu Fu in Fengchang Temple, Hou Taibu felt even more distressed.That Xu Fu is a talented person, but he doesn't know what restraint is.If the edge is exposed like this, won't it be broken one day?
Hou Sheng had never met the King of Qin. He just heard the decree promulgated by the State of Qin, so he couldn't help coming here. In his impression, the King of Qin should have a stubble and a rough and tough appearance.But when he raised his head, he saw a young man sitting behind the table, his complexion was slightly dark, and he was full of vigor and domineering. The man had a handsome appearance and handsome features. He couldn't help but want to kneel down and fall to the ground.
"Kings……"
Hou Taibu knelt down unconsciously and kowtowed to Yingzheng.
It was only then that Hou Taibu remembered that the current King Qin had just celebrated his 22-year-old coronation ceremony.
But such a young king of Qin is enough for people to appreciate the kingly spirit in him, and Hou Taibu unconsciously felt admiration in his heart.
Before Hou Shenghou Taibu could express his admiration, he listened to King Qin say, "Mr. Hou has been in Qin State for half a month?"
Hou Taibu didn't understand, so he nodded in a daze, "It's been half a month."
The penknife in King Qin's hand scratched across the surface of the table, making a teeth-piercing creaking sound.
Hou Taibu shivered unconsciously.
"Since it's been half a month, but I haven't seen Mr. Hou reveal half of his ability? I heard that Mr. Hou's divination is still quite different from Xu Taibu, so I decided to delete Xu Taibu's judgment?" Ying Zheng His voice was slightly cold, and his tone was extremely flat.
Hou Taibu's arrogance suddenly became much weaker, how could he still be full of spirit when he reprimanded Xu Fu before?
"Since the two of you have disagreements, Mr. Hou must remember to apologize to Xu Taibu after Xu Taibu confirms the hexagram and returns. Even if the hexagram is wrong, then Hou Taibu has to bear his own responsibility. Hou Taibu acted recklessly, and deleted the sentence on the bamboo slips as soon as he said it, so he didn't care about the widow? How can such a big matter be used as a joke?"
After a few words.
Hou Taibu was completely stunned.
"Your Majesty, I..." He had a very good impression of the King of Qin, and he didn't want to make the King of Qin feel bored the moment he showed up. He was a little anxious, but he couldn't say anything to defend himself.
"I also don't want to argue with Hou Taibu. I hope that Hou Taibu will show off his skills in Fengchang Temple after I leave. Let me learn the subtleties of Hou Taibu." Xu Fu suddenly said, although Hou Taibu's embarrassing situation was relieved, but what Xu Fu said made Hou Taibu's face ugly.
Xu Fu cut off the conversation, and Ying Zheng didn't say anything more, and after a few more simple explanations, he sent Hou Taibu out with a cold face.
After Hou Sheng came out of the palace, he suddenly remembered that he clearly came to ask the king why Xu Fu could sit with him and be the Taibu Cheng together?
But when he was questioned by the King of Qin just now, Hou Sheng felt a little guilty. He was dazzled by his fame, and when he came to Qin, he was still proud of himself...
Xu Fu followed closely from inside.
Hou Sheng hesitated for a while, then stepped forward and said, "Xu Taibu, I didn't mean to be joking. It's not easy to go to Shu. Xu Taibu should be careful."
Xu Fu sized him up, and seeing that he still had a cold and serious face, he blinked lazily, "Then I would like to thank Hou Taibu for reminding me."
Then Hou Shengfei said it was for his own good.
Could it be that if you go to Shu, will you be eaten?
