Chapter 617 Fusu's Choice
Xu Fu hopes to use the identity of Prince Fusu to kill the Second Emperor of Qin? What a cold joke?
Although he received professional training, he would not laugh out loud. At this time, Cao Wei couldn't help but burst out his defense with a puff.
"Is there anything funny?"
Jiang Chen didn't understand what Cao Wei was laughing because of, so his eyes were confused when he raised his eyebrows.
"It's nothing. I'm just thinking that the Qin Dynasty was destroyed by Hu Hai. Xu Fu actually didn't have to do anything. He just had to wait. Qin would still die in the second lifetime. His calculations were just a battle of wits and courage with the air. The result was no change at all..."
"You can't say that."
Hearing this explanation, Jiang Chen shook his head first.
"You cannot examine your predecessors on the premise that you already know the results. It is not stupid to do so. You must know that in that era, Zhao Gao and Li Si supported Hu Hai in fact, a dangerous move."
"Young Master Fusu is the eldest son of the emperor. He has always been prestige and loved by the imperial ministers and royal family. In addition, the First Emperor asked the general Meng Tian to assist him, and there were 300,000 soldiers on the frontiers under his command. It can be said that as long as he thought, he was 700,000 soldiers at the Xianyang Palace, and no matter how Li Si and Zhao Gao were doing things, as long as someone questioned the will and made the guards guarding Xianyang have doubts about them, they would have the only result of defeat."
"Xu Fu is not stupid. Of course he can see this situation, so he naturally cannot put his chips on Hu Hai. But he never expected that things would not develop as he thought."
What is the specific situation? There have been records in historical books. However, the records in historical books should be somewhat different from reality.
"Historical books say that Zhao Gao forged an edict and ordered Fusu Mengtian to commit suicide in the name of Emperor Shi. But according to your statement, Fusu has become a zombie. Can zombies commit suicide? Or are there any other statements here?"
"Zombies are immortal. Apart from a few methods, it is difficult for you to kill a zombie. So it is naturally impossible to commit suicide with a sword as mentioned in history books. However, this is indeed an illusion arranged by Fusu."
"Hmm? How do you say this?"
"If you are Fusu, are you willing to believe in a alchemist who deceives the public and turns himself into a demon, or do you believe in an edict with the seal of the First Emperor? Even if this edict wants you to thank the world for your death?"
Cao Wei didn't need to think too much about this question, and he gave the answer directly.
"I don't believe anyone. I won't say anything from the alchemist, just say the edict. I want to commit suicide by saying a edict? Unless something goes wrong with my mind."
"However, Fusu is probably the kind of person you mentioned who has a problem with his brain, because in that era, he was indeed one of the few pure filial people. He dared not and would not go against the will of the First Emperor, even if it was just a forgery."
The general sighed and gave Cao Wei an answer that made him a little bit grinning.
He didn't make much comment on Fusu's choice. Because Jiang Chen's statement also made him realize that there was an insurmountable ideological gap between him and the ancients more than two thousand years ago. What he thought was right might not be right in the ancients at that time. But he was inevitably frustrated.
"He really committed suicide?"
"He did commit suicide in front of Meng Tian."
He committed suicide, but did not die... This should be what the emperor said.
"When Xu Fu didn't expose him, how could he bear to let his own plot be ruined?"
"You have to endure it even if you can't bear it. Meng Tian personally restrained Fusu into the coffin. In front of a great general like Meng Tian and a 300,000 army, so what if he doesn't want it? Try to see if the sword of Daqin can make him lose all his money?"
This is not surprising if you think about it carefully.
The First Emperor could have an Afang Guard around him to intimidate ghosts and gods. Meng Tian was at least the commander of the first army, and there was also an orthodox successor of a dynasty like Gongzi Fusu. He had to have a similar personal guard around him to be worthy of his identity. In addition, Meng Tian himself would not be a weak person, so he would never have any good results when he dared to be angry.
"So, Xu Fu just watched Meng Tian bury Fusu. Fusu was just lying there and pretending to be dead?"
"That's not. He is pure filial piety, not a fool."
Shaking his head, Jiang Chen gave Cao Wei an answer that he could accept and understand. If Fusu was just lying in the coffin as a living dead person, Cao Wei would probably really treat this guy as a fool.
"I thought about it for a long time before I realized that the reason why Fusu did this was, on the one hand, because of pure filial piety, he did not dare to disobey his father. On the other hand, he did not want Xu Fu's purpose to succeed."
"As the heir trained by the First Emperor, he knew very well that no matter whether the edict was true or false, it would mean that the Qin Dynasty had already changed its dynasties. If he resisted the edict, it would inevitably lead to conflict between Meng Tian's army, Li Si, Zhao Gao and others. As the prime minister of the First Emperor and the CEI sect, they could fully hold the seal of the First Emperor to order the central army. Then it would be an internal melee of the Qin Dynasty."
"No matter who wins or loses, what is shaken will be the foundation of the Qin Dynasty, and it will give opportunities to the destruction of the six kingdoms or the barbarians outside the border. He does not want the efforts of the Zhao clan of the Ying family to be destroyed by their brothers. No matter what, Hu Hai is his younger brother. So he chose to give in."
"Give the emperor's throne to Hu Hai, and then leave Jiuzhou by pretending to die."
Anyway, the history of the Qin Dynasty was destined. Compared to family, Cao Wei was more concerned about Fusu's whereabouts. He was very curious about the successor of the Zhao descendants of the Ying surname who had become a zombie. So he couldn't help but ask Jiangchen curiously.
"Fusu left Zhongtu, where did he go?"
"He has been in the Western Regions, Persia, Egypt, Rome, and almost all ancient countries. He wandered in the world like a rootless duckweed for nearly a thousand years. Until the end, he chose to settle in Britain. At that time, I remember it seemed that it was already the early nineteenth century."
"I remember it was the time when the Vikings invaded and prompted the Anglo-Saxons to merge."
"You remember clearly, yes, it was this time. And it was also because of this special time that Fusu encountered the pain of his life."
This statement is novel, and Cao Wei even raised his ears directly. Looking at his appearance, Jiang Chen couldn't help but curl the corners of his mouth, and picked up the teacup and moistened his throat.
"Before I tell you a follow-up story, I want to ask you a private question?"
“Private question?”
He glanced at Jiangchen with some confusion. Cao Wei felt that although the relationship between the two had indeed brought closer together in this private communication, he suddenly crossed the privacy of private issues, which made people feel that it was too rash.
Normal interpersonal communication often taboos is to make a simple and profound conversation. But considering that the other party is not a human being, and he has always been sincere in making friends. Cao Wei doesn't mind talking to him about privacy topics.
"You can ask, but I don't guarantee that you can answer anything."
"Of course, I understand, do people always have to have a little privacy?"
With a teasing smile, the Jiangchen didn't look like the king of zombies at this moment, but more like a bad friend who was holding back all the bad waters.
This feeling was very subtle. But it also made Cao Wei trust him more invisibly. He rolled his eyes in anger and asked directly.
"If you have anything you want to ask, don't forget, we haven't reached the point after talking for a long time?"
"It's soon, it's soon!" After evasive, Jiang Chen looked at Cao Wei up and down, and then opened his mouth with a smile.
"What I want to ask you is, do you know what it feels like to love a woman?"
"I know, of course I know. I'm not gay!"
I felt that this question was a bit stupid, so Cao Wei would not be very polite when he answered. However, Jiang Chen didn't care, but the expression on his face became more and more cramped.
"Tell me, what is your favorite woman like? How do you feel about her?"
"How can this feel? The woman I love the most is my mother, and it's how my son feels about his mother..."
"Cough..." He choked directly by this answer. Jiang Chen smiled bitterly and obviously didn't expect Cao Wei to answer like this.
This answer cannot be said to be wrong, but it was not what he wanted to ask. As soon as he was about to open his mouth, Cao Wei said first.
"But I guess you are not asking about this. You are talking about the kind of relationship between men and women."
"I know you're pretending to be stupid for me?"
"I have to rule out the extra options first." Cao Wei made an excuse for his behavior of pretending to be stupid. Looking at the almost uncovered gossip on Jiang Chen's face, although he was a little helpless, he still chose to confess and be lenient.
"Actually, you know that I'm so handsome. How could I not know about these loves. But if you want to say that I love the most... it's really hard to say, because one of my biggest characteristics is fraternity."
"I like that kind of tenderness as water, and I also like the unrestrained enthusiasm. Of course, the kind of heat as the flames under the ice is also my favorite... How can I say that, I just yearn for beauty, and then I can't bear to refuse. If I have to give up even though I am in love, it would be too cruel, isn't it?"
Although Cao Wei's statement was quite tactful, Jiang Chen still understood what he meant at the first time. He immediately showed an expression that seemed to be looking at garbage, and he couldn't help but stutter.
"Really, I thought people of your age should be more innocent. But I still didn't expect that you would be such a person..."
"What do you want to say? Shameless?"
"Hey, you can just know this kind of thing yourself, why bother to say it?"
I was a little surprised by the attitude of the general, or Cao Wei never thought that he would be so serious about such a problem.
After a little relevance, he couldn't help but show a cramped smile that was exactly the same as that of Jiangchen.
