Chapter 23: Competing with Heaven? Or with people?

Xianyang, Li's Mansion...

"Greetings to my son, my father."

A young man pushed open the door of the study and walked in. Looking at Li Si who was staring blankly with a book, he bowed and said.

"Yuer? Why are you back?"

Li Si looked at Li You, was stunned for a moment, and then asked.

"The court issued official documents to Sanchuan and asked the child to return to Xianyang to stand by."

Li You stood in front of Li Si, with a gloomy expression.

"Oh? That's it! It's good to be back."

Li Si put down the book in his hand and lay on the chair of the Empire's latest popular, thinking.

"My father, I heard that you were imprisoned by Your Majesty for three months in Sanchuan County?"

Li You stood in the guest seat next to the study, then looked at Li Si and asked.

"good."

Li Si nodded. There is nothing to hide like this, and it cannot be hidden.

"My father was loyal to the empire for the rest of his life, but because of three days of delay in food and grass, he was sentenced to his father to be imprisoned for three months. His Majesty was too unkind.

Li You's face was full of dissatisfaction and he muttered.

"Speak softly, you dare to say such words, are you afraid of your life?"

Li Si's eyelids trembled and he quickly scolded.

"Father, I feel unfair for you!"

Li You said indignantly.

“What’s injustice?”

"When you are as old as you, you can only crush you to death if you are a commoner. If you don't have your Majesty's cultivation and appreciation, how can you have the glory of your father for decades?"

Li Si sighed, revealing a remembrance.

"My father, how can you be so confused? It's different from the past. It's easy to get up. If you want to get down, it's a sea of ​​swords and fire! How many people can come down from your position since ancient times?"

"Look, you have not been dismissed from office by His Majesty! How diligent the fence-bearing people are on weekdays. Who else is here? They all went to Feng's mansion to flatter and flatter."

"The child had worked in Sanchuan County for many years, but now he has sent a transfer order to return to Xianyang. To put it nicely, he is on standby, and to put it badly, he is dismissed from office and seized power. Today is the child, so who will be tomorrow? Doesn't the father understand?"

Li You's face turned pale, and when he said this, he was indignant.

"You are the governor of Sanchuan County. Feng Quji does not have such great power. If you don't have your Majesty's approval, how could a member of the party be recalled? "

Li Si glanced at his son and reminded him.

Li You's eyes lit up, and he suddenly showed a sudden look and said, "It's still my father's consideration, but is your Majesty intentionally suppressing me, Li?"

"Your Majesty is unpredictable, how can you make a mistake as a minister?"

Li Si winked at Li You and shook his head.

The black ice platform is everywhere. Although it is in his own mansion, Li Si still dares not relax at all.

"The boy has lost his words."

Li You was definitely not a fool, nodded and said.

"Your Majesty has gone to Fuping. I heard that you will be back in the next few days. Since you are back to Xianyang, you should go to visit His Royal Highness."

Li Si said meaningfully.

Li You immediately understood the god, yes!

I am the son-in-law of the current dynasty and the husband of Princess Ying Laiman.

Your Majesty is about to return to Beijing, of course I can't plead with the saint, but the princess can!

After all, it is the royal bloodline. His Majesty's daughter, blood is thicker than water, so you can try it.

"The child rested for a while and then returned to the house to visit His Highness the Princess. My father continued reading! Don't pay attention to the child."

Li You shouted loudly.

Li Si stood up and gently tapped a stone brick on the wall behind.

Crunch...

With a sound, the bookshelf automatically separated, revealing a secret door.

Li You also stood up and carefully followed Li Si and walked into the secret door.

Soon the bookshelf closed automatically, and the father and son disappeared into the room.

When they arrived in a secret room, the father and son sat hugging each other, looking at each other, but began to fall silent.

"Father, will we, Li, sit still and wait for death like this?"

Li You looked solemn and said unwillingly.

"What about that?"

Li Si asked back.

"With my father's reputation, I, Li, is definitely not a person who can be slaughtered. Why not give up? Maybe I can fight for a broad sky?"

Li You thought for a while, his eyes flashed with dangerous light.

"How to fight? Fight with heaven? Or fight with people?"

Li Si asked back, his tone was quite intriguing.

"Your Majesty is powerful and has a natural heart, but he is not lazy. However, my father taught his children to be loyal to the emperor and patriotism since childhood, and he remembers them in his heart and never dares to forget them."

Li You thought for a while, and his tone eased a little.

"This is a great word, and no one can defeat His Majesty's power. If you act against the will of heaven, you will die."

Li Si clicked, very satisfied with his son's performance and praised him.

"What achievements does Feng's villain have in his success? What kind of Zeji have in the world?"

Li You said when he mentioned the Feng family, he was so angry that he said.

"Since ancient times, the officialdom has never lacked lucky people who succeed for a while. Sometimes, retreating is a good thing."

Li Si said meaningfully, but his expression did not change much.

"What does father mean?"

Li You was confused and asked.

"There have been rumors in the palace that Your Majesty is in good health. This time he goes to Fuping, Wang is afraid that he will be out of the temple again."

Li Si stroked his beard and said in a deep voice.

"Didn't my father always say that Your Majesty is afraid of Wang's military merits? Why is this..."

Li You was a little surprised and said incredible.

"It's different from the past. Maybe it's because of your father's mistakenness, maybe it's because of His Majesty's intention to arrange the funeral after death, who can really explain it?"

Li Si smiled and gave a vague answer.

Li You was stunned and his expression gradually became serious.

If Li was the upstart in the officialdom of the Qin Empire, he was a prominent party.

The Wang family and the Meng family were evergreen trees of the Qin Empire army and stood firm.

The nobles of generations and the tiger generals of the family are all powerful and famous in the Qin Dynasty, and no one can shake it.

If it weren't for the resolute rebellion of the king, Bai Qi was sentenced to death, I'm afraid the Bai family would have been considered a nobleman for generations.

But because of the incident back then, although the Bai family had served in the army for generations, they were still far behind the Montessus and the Wangtes.

"My father means that His Majesty is about to run out of energy?"

Li You's voice was very low and he asked incredibly solemnly.

"Zhao Gao's lesson is still ahead. Unless Your Majesty is really buried in peace, you will never believe in your father! As for others, you can't control your father, and you don't want to control it."

Li Si's words were quite intriguing, revealing a playful look.

"Did your father mean that your Majesty wants to use this to clear away dissidents and clear obstacles for the successor?"

Li You felt shocked and said in surprise.

"I don't know about my father, but I can't rule out this possibility. After all, Your Majesty is in poor health, so it's not a secret. It's almost a few years since the time has been around. Otherwise, if Zhao Gao is as cunning as cunning, how could he easily reveal his fangs?"

"Do your duty well. During this extraordinary period, you are a person with your tail and act in a low-key manner. You have already written your resignation for your father and are ready to live your old age. Old Man Feng can't stay for a few days."

Li Si reminded his son, then changed his subject and said confidently.

Li You was shocked and thoughtful. Is your father leaving a backup plan?
