Chapter 4 Unexpected Assassination
When Fusu went there, Ying Gao knew that his next stop was to go to Shangjun and Meng Tian to meet. The First Emperor's patience with him reached the threshold. Although he would not exclude him from the heirs, it was true that he did not want to see him again for the time being.
The reason why Ying Gao did not follow him was very simple. Once he followed Fusu, he would almost certainly make the First Emperor think he was advising Fusu. But for the First Emperor, I was fooled by several alchemists and the thief leader was not caught. It was already very shameful to take hundreds of alchemists out of his anger. As sons, you not only can't understand, but also come to slap me in the face. It would be strange if you can have a good ending.
As the son of the First Emperor, Fusu was sent to build the Great Wall and had the opportunity to repair it with Meng Tian. There were 300,000 troops on his side, which was a yellow card warning, indicating that if you continue like this, the issue of the heir would have to be rethinked. But Ying Gao, who is not close to his uncle, may not be like this. He will not take this risk.
When he returned to the mansion, Ying Gao had to start thinking about countermeasures again. After Fusu's trip, he was afraid that the ending was destined. All he could do was to make up for the dead. After thinking for a long time, Ying Gao had to sigh and go out again. Naturally, his destination was Fusu's mansion, so he did not persuade him to stay in advance, but after going to Shangjun, there was no chance to fight back. What he had to do was to let Fusu pay attention to his situation and not feel good about himself anymore.
When he arrived at Fusu's mansion again, it was already three or four hours after he left the last time. The servants in the mansion all looked low. Ying Gao knew at first glance that his history must be correct. This time, Fusu was afraid that he would lose his wife and his troops. Ying Gao, who was in a hurry to see Fusu, did not see it. In the shadow not far outside the Fusu Mansion, a pair of gloomy eyes were staring at him entering Fusu Mansion, and then slowly disappeared.
The attendant led Ying Gao to Fusu. Fusu sat there as if he hadn't seen it, his face was silent, full of decadent aura.
"Why is this the elder brother? Could it be that my father did not listen to his elder brother's advice?"
Pretending to be ignorant, Ying Gao knelt in front of Fusu and asked with concern. Although he looked very despised by Fusu, he could not say that you didn't listen to advice before, but now you are honest, right? What he wants to do is to cultivate Fusu's sense of crisis.
"My father actually killed all 460 alchemists. Even though Hou Sheng and Lu Sheng were wrong to deceive the emperor, how could he catch all the alchemists? After my hard persuasion, my father was sent to Shangjun to assist General Meng Tian in building the Great Wall and fighting against the Huns. He was about to set out tonight. It can be seen that my father had lost confidence in me!"
Just based on this sentence, Ying Gao knew that it was perfect to describe Fusu's mood at this time with a discouraged heart. From the eldest son who valued the most to being so bored that he sent him to Shangjun, the gap between them was indeed unaware of it without personal experience.
Ying Gao knew that he could only persuade Fusu like this. Fortunately, he had some research on the state of mind of the First Emperor in his previous life, so he leaned closer and said, "If my father really lost confidence in his brother, how could he let his brother supervise the 300,000 army? In addition, General Meng Tian is a person his father trusts extremely, and his brother Meng Yi is even more a favorite minister in front of his father. Could it be that the elder brother could not feel that although this was a punishment from his father, it was a chance his father gave his brother?"
After hearing this, Fusu finally raised his head and looked at Ying Gao, obviously waiting for his next sentence. The huge blow had already made Fusu forget that he, his younger brother who was supposed to be on the same front, may not have said more in the past year than today.
"The elder brother is now respected by all officials in the court. The people of Guizhou also know the reputation of the elder brother's virtue. The only thing that is lacking is military power. The elder brother will make good efforts with General Meng Tian. The 300,000 border troops will not obey the orders of the elder brother. Isn't that a great good thing? In the court affairs, Meng Yi will tell his elder brother and General Meng Tian. No matter how bad the younger brother is, he will pay attention. Even if the troubles are made, he will not hide the consequences of his brother."
Ying Gao had already figured it out before. If Fusu really could manage this tragic Qin, it would be wonderful if he could only point out key issues. Otherwise, this huge Qin would have to discuss the stone title every day just by reviewing memorials, so how could he have time to enjoy life? Fusu is kind-hearted and in the same camp as him, so Ying Gao did not take any attention here. He really hoped that he could get up and be the person standing behind the emperor.
"With that being said, it's true that my father was disappointed with me..."
Obviously, what I care most about is his father's attitude when he is innocent and innocent.
"My father only loves his brother deeply and blames him very much. When he goes here, the only thing he needs to pay attention to is his father's body. In recent years, his father's health is much worse than before because of frequent consumption of elixirs. What if there is any change in his brother's life when he is in Shangjun..."
"Silence! How can you say such remarks randomly? If someone with a heart hears it, even if you are the prince, you will not be able to escape heavy punishment!"
Just like the last time, Ying Gao had not finished speaking, but was blocked by Fusu again. When he wanted to speak again, Fusu had already stood up and said helplessly: "It's already a little dark. My father ordered me to leave Xianyang before it gets dark. If I don't set out again, I will make my father unhappy..."
Ying Gao's most important words have not been reminded at this time, so he naturally would not return to his house. He hurriedly said, "Gao is willing to send his brother out of the city and go ten miles outside the city!"
Ying Gao's support naturally moved Fusu. Since Shangjun is not far from Xianyang, it can be reached in a few days by riding a horse, Fusu did not carry many objects, only a team of guards to protect him. Ying Gao also rode a horse in a shaky way and followed Fusu.
Because there were so many people on the road, Ying Gao did not have the chance to speak at first. He was about to be sent to the ten miles and the sky was already dark. Ying Gao leaned over to Fusu and said, "Can you please take a step to speak? Some words are like a thorn in your throat."
This time, Fusu gave Ying Gao a great face. He grabbed the horse's belly and quickly stepped a few steps away from the guards behind him, obviously to make Ying Gao easy to speak.
Seeing that he finally got the opportunity, Ying Gao hurriedly said, "Brother, at most, father..."
Just as Ying Gao was talking about this critical moment, a sound of horse hooves suddenly came from his ears. Ying Gao subconsciously turned around and heard a "puff" sound in his ears, and then his face became cold, as if something was splashing on his face.
When Ying Gao turned around, the scene in front of him almost shocked him and fell from his horse. However, when he turned around, Fusu had no idea where he was injured. His mouth and nose were covered with blood. What had just sprayed Ying Gao's face was Fusu's blood.
Ying Gao, who had never seen such a situation in his previous life, opened his mouth for a moment but could not say anything. He could only dismount and support Fusu tremblely, but Fusu was soon picked up by his own guard. Ying Gao saw the man who assassinated Fusu riding a fast horse and was about to run away, but was flashed by a person from Fusu's guard and shot his bow and arrow in the back center, and immediately fell off his horse.
