Fusu glanced at Xiao He a few times, frowned and said, "What do you want to ask? Do you also think that the court's different treatment of Chu Di and me has something to do with it?"
Xiao He shook his head and said, "I don't think so."
Fusu said: "Why?"
Xiao He said:
"Because this is not beneficial to the young master."
"This move seems to be protecting the young master, but in fact it is putting the young master on fire. The young master has a deep connection with the Chu family. Everyone knows this. As long as the court behaves differently, others will definitely blame the young master.
On the body."
"Xiaguan actually thought so at first."
"It's just that it realized something was wrong later. If the imperial court was really protecting the young master, it would definitely inform the young master in advance and even recall the young master in advance. It would not act so abruptly, but the young master obviously didn't know about it."
Fusu said: "Besides this explanation, what other explanation can be used?"
Xiao He pondered for a moment.
He said slowly:
"This is exactly why I came to see you."
"The lower official believes that the court did not consider the young master at all, and acted according to established ideas. The young master was actually accidentally injured."
Fusu raised his eyebrows and said in confusion: "What do you mean, the situation in Chu Di was actually caused by the imperial court's intention? It's just that I happened to be in Chu Di, so I was inexplicably responsible for the black matter?"
Xiao He nodded and said:
"This is exactly what the official thinks."
"Xiaoguan just thought about it carefully. The strangeness of the imperial court this time can be explained by another reason, that is, the imperial court is actually deliberately plotting."
"Plan?" Fusu became more and more confused.
Xiao He said:
"It's just a calculation."
"So I'm a little confused."
"The court's traditional style of conduct has always been open and closed. It is rarely good at calculations, and it is even rarer to do this kind of maneuvering. This matter is obviously contrary to the court's style of conduct, so I feel a little strange."
"Master, you can think about it carefully."
"After the nobles of the Six Nations fled, the nobles from all over the country would eventually flee to their original fiefdoms, that is, they would flee to the Six Lands of Shandong. Logically speaking, the Six Lands of Shandong would pursue the escaped nobles of the Six Nations.
, but the other five places are strictly restricted at this time, and the Chu land is the only one missing. Is this really an accident?"
"Isn't this intentional?"
Fusu's eyes narrowed and he said in a deep voice: "Do you think someone in the court deliberately let go of the Chu nobles?"
Immediately, Fusu shook his head.
"wrong."
"The courtiers have almost no interaction with the Chu nobles, and there is no need for them to open the door to facilitate them. Furthermore, this move is too obvious. You don't even need to think about it carefully at all. You can see that there is something wrong with it at a glance."
"A courtier would not make such a mistake."
Xiao He nodded, then shook his head.
said:
"That's why I think it's strange."
"This is unreasonable!"
"But if you really think about it, you can actually understand it. However, those who dare to make such a decision must have a deep understanding of Chu Di. Moreover, this approach is too obvious and can easily turn into playing with fire and burning yourself."
Hear the words.
Fusu suddenly became interested.
The two walked side by side for a while to Fusu's residence. The two entered the lobby and sat facing each other. Soon a servant brought hot soup. Now that the weather is turning cold, hot soup is just in time.
Xiao He took a sip of hot soup.
He said slowly:
"This matter indeed has nothing to do with the young master."
"This is someone plotting against the nobles of Chu."
"Young master, you may not know something. There are actually many factions in the Chu region, and there are almost endless secret fights. Compared with the other five destroyed kingdoms, the desire for restoration in the Chu region is actually the strongest, because the nobles in the Chu region have never accepted the subjugation of the country."
"They don't think they lost to Qin."
"From the beginning to the end, the Chu nobles only thought that they died due to internal fighting."
"And this is actually a reason."
"At the end of the Warring States Period, only the two kingdoms of Qin and Chu had the ability to unify the world. Qin's soldiers were like tigers and wolves, invincible on the battlefield, while Chu's land was vast and abundant with resources. It had always been the most powerful princes in the world, but Chu had a huge problem.
The problem is that they are good at internal fighting."
"At that time, Qu Yuan had great ambitions and wanted to unite the power of Chu State to block the general trend of the world, but in the end he was dragged down by the nobles of Chu State, so that he could only sink in hatred. This is evident from the internal fighting among the nobles of Chu State. In fact, this situation has never improved.
Until Qin unified the world and at the same time moved a large number of Chu nobles to Xianyang."
"It's rare for Chu land to calm down these years."
"As the old clan was moved to Xianyang, the new nobles continued to occupy the Chu region. Without the obstruction of the old clan, the new nobles were like divine help. In just a few years, they occupied a lot of the fields that the old clan had annexed.
Without so many talkative people, it is difficult for the Chu region to reach a consensus. If the court does not pay attention to it for a long time, the Chu region will definitely be integrated by the new nobles."
"Although the major nobles have differences with each other, they are far less severe than the differences between the old and new nobles."
"Now the imperial court intends to let go of the Chu nobles, which is really a clever move. There has been a conflict between the old and new nobles for a long time. In the past, the old clans had the upper hand. However, because they were moved to Xianyang, they could not interfere much with the Chu land, so they had to give up.
"
"But now that the imperial court is conniving at the return of the Chu nobles, how will the old clans of Chu give up when they return? They will definitely gather their strength to take back the fields and houses taken away by the new nobles. There will definitely be a conflict between the two, which will intensify the Chu territory.
internal friction."
"The imperial court's move is really trying to drive away wolves and swallow tigers!"
Fusu's heart moved slightly.
He thought about it carefully, nodded, and said, "This is indeed a reasonable explanation, but is it necessary for the court to do this?"
"The world belongs to the Qin Dynasty, and the land of Chu is also the territory of the Qin Dynasty."
"Why do you need to use such a calculation?"
Xiao He said:
"The lower official begs to differ."
"In the opinion of the lower official, this move is a loss of reputation and great gain. The escape of the nobles of the six countries is a foregone conclusion. Although the imperial court has been chasing and intercepting people along the way, there will still be fish that slip through the net. In addition, there are rumors that His Majesty is ill.
If it goes out, the local turmoil will definitely intensify."
"The power of the imperial court is limited."
"If the whole place is in chaos, the court will obviously have too much time to take care of itself, but if the local nobles can be busy with internal fighting and not interested in conspiracy, this will undoubtedly reduce the pressure on the court and significantly reduce the scale of local turmoil."
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! "This is a wise move."
"Chu is the strongest among the six regions in Shandong, and has the strongest anti-Qin aspirations. The court's differential treatment of the old clans of Chu will undoubtedly arouse the suspicion of the nobles of the other five regions, and will also arouse the suspicion of the new nobles of Chu.
Suspicions, there are constant conflicts of interest among the nobles of Chu, and they cannot be explained clearly, so how can they sit together calmly?"
"finally......"
"The two will still fall into infighting!"
"And it will evolve into a situation where it will not end until death."
"No matter who wins in the end, their vitality will be severely damaged, and it will be difficult to recover in a short time. And when the court comes, how can it stand by and watch, and through various alienations and temptations, it can divide and dismember the large and small nobles in the Chu region."
"Then Chu will no longer pose a threat to the imperial court!"
Fusu said: "But based on my understanding of my father, it is absolutely impossible for my father to issue such an edict, and Prime Minister Li and others cannot make such a decision."
Xiao He said: "This is what surprises me. I don't think this is a decision made by the court, but judging from the current situation, it is indeed in line with my guess."
Fusu frowned.
His eyes rolled around, as if he remembered something, and suddenly said: "This is not the decision made by the court, this is Qin Luoheng's idea."
"And it must be him!"
"Qin Luoheng?" Xiao He was stunned.
Fusu nodded affirmatively.
said:
"You don't know something."
"Qin Luoheng has decided on political affairs with the officials of the Prime Minister's Office at this time. Officials of the Prime Minister's Office cannot make such decisions, and matters related to the army must require the nod of the father. Officials of the Prime Minister's Office do not have the guts to interfere, and
The only person with this influence is Qin Luoheng!"
"One of the generals who led the search this time is Qiang You. Qiang You was born in the Guanzhong clan and was very close to Qin Luoheng. If Qin Luoheng had told him in private, Qiang You might have complied with it."
Xiao He was slightly shocked.
Surprised and said:
"Did Young Master make a mistake?"
"Qin Luoheng is just a doctor. How can he persuade the generals? And as the young master said, without His Majesty's nod, it may be difficult to implement this matter. Can Qin Luoheng convince His Majesty?"
Fusu's eyes were profound.
He said in a deep voice:
"able!"
"It was Qin Luoheng who rescued my father this time."
"and......"
"You underestimate Qin Luoheng too much."
"He has never been simple, Doctor? That is just a claim to the outside world. His identity has never been that of a Doctor, not before, not now, and not in the future."
"This time driving away wolves and devouring tigers is obviously Qin Luoheng's style. He is the only one in the court who dares to do this. In the past, everyone in the court knew that my father did not like conspiracy, nor did he like people to play political tricks.
But Qin Luoheng is an exception."
Xiao He was a little confused.
He was a little confused. Why did the First Emperor look at Qin Luoheng differently? This made no sense at all. Qin Luoheng was just a doctor. He was even deprived of the power to participate in political affairs before. Logically speaking, he had no right to participate in government affairs.
Eligibility to participate in political affairs.
and.
Can Qin Luoheng affect military power?
This is something that even the eldest son cannot do.
Why can Qin Luoheng do it?
Xiao He's thoughts were a little confused. He originally thought that this strategy was recommended by the courtiers, but Fusu insisted that it was Qin Luoheng. This made him a little confused.
Fusu did not explain.
He also found it difficult to calm down.
He picked up the soup bowl and drank the hot soup in one gulp. His heart was filled with mixed emotions. From this, he could see his father's preference for Qin Luoheng, but he didn't feel much jealousy in his heart, because
Qin Luoheng is indeed worth it.
Just by saving his father, he deserves all this.
But Fusu also felt that the gap between himself and Qin Luoheng was getting wider and wider.
It's so big that it's hard for him to reach.
Take this incident as an example, Qin Luoheng may not have had any other intentions. He just wanted to plot against the nobles of Chu State. However, such a plan put him in a very embarrassing situation, and even made him unable to defend himself.
I could only respond in a muffled voice.
And this is something he has never done before!
Fusu's face was full of bitterness.
aside.
An idea flashed in Xiao He's mind.
This idea was very bold, but it seemed very reasonable, but it was so shocking that he even couldn't believe it.
