Chapter 130 Extra Story 2: The Mirror of Cause and Effect (2)
Li Si and Zhao Gao, two people who have been using for so many years, did not recall Fusu as he wanted after "his own" death, but instead forged an edict!
Zhao Gao, who was usually extremely humble, completely exposed his ambitions at this time. He lobbyed Li Si and said, "Young Master Fusu is already in conflict with you, and he doesn't take your father-in-law seriously. He is also particularly close to the Meng family. Once he succeeds to the throne, where will you have your place in the court?"
After Zhao Gao's persuasion, Li Si was soon moved. He and Zhao Gao worked together to forge an edict to send people to the north, and at the same time forged the illusion that "hisself" was not dead.
The reason why he was able to forge such an illusion is that "I" had been addicted to seeking immortals and asking for advice before, and was persuaded by the alchemist to not let people know about his conduct, so his whereabouts are difficult to be known by others, and he was not willing to listen to various matters.
He felt that the world belongs to him and that nothing could be decided by him alone? The following people just need to follow orders and do things, and there is no need to have their own opinions.
Looking further, "I" climbed Mount Tai and encountered heavy storms, crossed the Yangtze River and encountered strong storms, and was assassinated in Xianyang. My carefully trained son was brainwashed by Dr. Qi. He sang against him when he had nothing to do, and there was nothing going well.
Perhaps it is because of so many unpleasant things that "I" sleep more and more lightly at night. It is already very good to sleep for one or two hours a day. Sometimes I can't even fall asleep, and I suddenly fall ill on my last tour.
Ying Zheng looked at the scenes in front of him with a deep face, feeling that he had changed too much in his "self" more than ten years later. Did he not be able to make the world come back? Because there were too many things he wanted to do and felt that his health was getting worse and worse, he wanted to ask the immortal to ask, "Does he seek the way to live forever?"
Everything continues.
The forged edict was sent to the north.
Fusu has been in the army for three years and looks like he has lost some of his literary spirit and has become more determined, but after reading the edict, he is still very sad.
Fusu did not immediately commit suicide under Meng Tian's obstruction, but promised Meng Tian to go back and ask clearly before talking.
But after returning to his tent, Fusu once again spread out the edict and looked at the words above to scold him.
Originally, Ying Zheng was satisfied with Meng Tian's advice to Fusu. When he saw Fusu alone in the tent, he scolded Meng Tian in his heart.
This guy watched Fusu grow up, don’t you know what Fusu’s temperament is?!
Ying Zheng had heard Fusu talk about this past. When he heard Fusu talk about it, he was just angry. At this time, he saw Fusu crying at the edict, and his heart seemed to be held by an invisible hand.
Ying Zheng didn't want to look down any longer, but Fusu still drew his sword in front of him.
He watched Fusu commit suicide with his sword, and the red blood scattered on the hateful edict.
This kid has been like this since he was a child.
This kid has been obedient and obedient since he was a child. He never worries people. He never knows how to act coquettishly and pleases him. He always insists on what he thinks is right. Sometimes even though he knows what he does, he will not be happy, this kid will still stick to the end.
So, this kid has never been very likable.
When the civil and military officials in the court were silent, this kid liked to jump out and sing against him.
But if someone else made an edict forged in his name, the kid could commit suicide by slashing his sword.
Ying Zheng recalled what Fusu had done in the past decade, from his initial dodging and carefulness to his later efforts to get close to him, and felt that he had never seen such a stupid person again.
Even though he had all the adventures later, this kid still had no change. Knowing that "he" might have to kill him and make other brothers the crown prince, he also tried to create a nationality school, stuffed his brothers and sisters into it, found the best teacher for them, and urged them to study the art of civil and military diligently.
This boy said "going to sea by boat" and probably not just talk, but he had already made the worst plan.
Ying Zheng is never a person who is bound by emotions. If he had experience like Fusu, he would definitely take the initiative first, kill himself, and then cut off all his brothers, instead of taking out all the things he could take like Fusu, and only preparing a bad "boat and sea" retreat for himself.
How could he give birth to a son like Fusu?
But everything that makes this annoying is just a "cause", and the more hateful result is still to come.
The news of Fusu's suicide was soon returned to Li Si and Zhao Gao. The two of them were overjoyed and celebrated each other, driving the carriage and horse carrying "his own" bodies to support Hu Hai ascend the throne.
Hu Hai is not very young, but he is still like a child and trusts Zhao Gao very much. He will do whatever he says. Because Hu Hai has so many brothers, once the edict is discovered, there will definitely be a turmoil. Zhao Gao instigated Hu Hai to order the brothers and sisters to be executed.
Hu Hai and his brothers and sisters were not close at all. He quickly found many excuses to execute them, and many were not even buried in the imperial tomb. The remaining princes and princesses who could not find excuses to deal with them for a while were anxious every day, and some people offered to bury them with burial. Hu Hai and Zhao Gao were very happy and simply killed them and sent them to the imperial tomb to accompany them.
Ying Zheng would not be ruthless when he killed his brother. Seeing his son treating his "his" children like this, he would inevitably be angry. He killed his elder brother and all his brothers and sisters. He never saw that Hu Hai was so capable!
If Hu Hai was really cruel, scheming and scheming, he could pass on the Qin Dynasty well, but what happened next was even more annoying.
Zhao Gao quickly found an excuse to kill Li Si, Feng Quji and others, coaxing Hu Hai to eat, drink and have fun every day, and he took the power alone.
How powerful was Zhao Gao? Zhao Gao led a deer to Hu Hai and the civil and military officials and said it was a horse. Hu Hai said: "This is clearly a deer!" Zhao Gao turned his head and asked the civil and military officials: "Do you think this is a deer or a horse?" The civil and military officials were frightened by his power, and many of them echoed: "This is a horse!"
Later, chaos in the world broke out again, and Zhao Gao joined hands with others to kill Hu Hai to support another "royal bloodline" that emerged from somewhere. This "royal bloodline" was even more unparalleled. Before he could beat him, he showed weakness, and he only called himself the King of Qin, but did not dare to call himself emperor!
The "cause and effect" displayed by the Cause and Effect Mirror ends here.
The mirror of cause and effect also dissipated because of fulfilling its mission.
Ying Zheng couldn't recover for a long time.
Even if the mirror of cause and effect was not released, Ying Zheng knew that the "royal bloodline" that was promoted in the middle could not restore the good situation of unifying the world. The good Qin Dynasty was only passed on to the second generation and then fell apart!
And this second life was not his choice!
Ying Zheng took a deep breath and tried his best to calm himself down.
The successors are incompetent, not only will the people be in chaos, but the nobles of the six countries will also be revived, and the world will once again fall into chaos.
The Qin Dynasty's reunification to its destruction only lasted for more than a decade.
Zhao Gao, Li Si, Hu Hai.
These three people whom he thought could be easily controlled now ruined the world of the Qin Dynasty.
Just after careful consideration, it was not just these people who destroyed the Qin Dynasty. Although the Qin Dynasty unified the world, many people still never truly surrendered to the Qin Dynasty.
There is no need for bloodshed in the process of unifying the world. The hatred of destroying the country and destroying the family cannot be quelled by a few decrees. Those who have lost everything because of the unification of the world will never be willing to become subjects of the Qin Dynasty. As long as they have the chance, they will make trouble.
Ying Zheng closed his eyes and thought.
Kill all these people?
No, killing it all is impossible, that will only cause the unrest to break out earlier.
Ying Zheng was thinking about it when he suddenly heard someone come to report Hu Hai's request for a meeting.
Ying Zheng's brows hopped, thinking of the terrible things that this bad thing did in that "cause and effect", he said coldly: "Let him get out."
This child is spoiled to act coquettishly. He used to be quite happy to play with fun. Now that he knows that a cause and effect, Ying Zheng really lost his original love for Hu Hai.
If you rob the throne, you will rob the throne. Why can't you control the power if you rob it? You can make jokes like "Lu Weima" that can make people laugh for thousands of years?
Hu Hai's crying came soon outside, and it was Hu Hai crying outside and shouting "Father".
Ying Zheng was upset when he heard this and asked someone to go out and take Hu Hai away. He didn't think it was before, but now he started to get tired of Hu Hai, so he realized that he gave Hu Hai too much preferential treatment.
If nothing else, whoever he wants to see or not, who dares to have an objection? Hu Hai dares, and he dares to cry outside. It’s because he is too lenient to this child, so where does this child have this courage? If it were Fusu-
Ying Zheng felt upset again when he thought about this.
If it were Fusu, Fusu would have left in shame and never knew to fight for it. This disobedient thing makes people feel bad, and the obedient thing makes people feel bad. Why can't these bastards combine it?
Fortunately, Fusu has grown a lot in recent years and knows how to come to him often. Looking back, Fusu often comes to him for any reason, as if it is something that happened after Hu Hai was born.
Ying Zheng recalled what Fusu had done over the years and roughly figured out how much Fusu knew.
The Cause and Effect Mirror says that Fusu has never opened it and has been escaping that period of "cause and effect". It can be seen that Fusu really believed in the edict back then.
Fusu probably didn't know what happened later. What Fusu knew was that he took Hu Hai on a tour. Perhaps he felt that he particularly favored Hu Hai to be in Hu Hai, so he would only care about it after Hu Hai was born.
Fusu must not know whether Li Si, the father-in-law, participated in the forgery of the edict and wanted to kill him.
Thinking of the young couple who had just come to see him during the day, Ying Zheng's brows jumped.
Over the years, he has used Li Si very easily and is preparing to promote Li Si to prime minister in the future.
It was precisely because he was preparing to reuse Li Si that he married his daughter to Li Si's son and asked Fusu to marry Li Si's daughter. However, this man conspired with Zhao Gao to commit suicide by forgery!
Thinking of Li Si's overjoyed expression when he heard the news of Fusu's suicide, Ying Zheng wanted to dismember Li Si's five horses in advance.
Anyway, they will die sooner or later, so it would be better for him to send them to the road early!
Ying Zheng suppressed the violence in his heart and recalled the things that Hu Hai often came to him.
With so many brothers and sisters, why is he the most courageous and even dares to come to his office often?
In the past, Ying Zheng only thought that his son's father was by nature. Now, if no one was guiding him, how could he run straight to him if he was a child and a half.
Ying Zheng called someone to stare at the people around Hu Hai to see how they taught Hu Hai and who they had contacted with.
After the arrangements were completed, Ying Zheng took a break as usual. Shortly after waking up the next day, Ying Zheng was having breakfast when he saw Fusu hesitantly came.
"Don't you let you rest for three days?" Ying Zheng said slowly.
He now regrets letting Fusu and Li Si's daughter get married, but they have announced that the world has been announced. Even for the status of the prince Fusu, he will not rashly dismember Li Si's five horses, so as not to think that he is dissatisfied with the prince Fusu and has bad thoughts.
If you don’t kill, you won’t kill. For people like Li Si who are keen on power, death is not the most terrible thing. Seeing others rise step by step but have nothing to do, that is the cruelest thing.
This is not the first time Ying Zheng has done this. If Fusu can conquer Han Fei in the future, Ying Zheng is ready to promote Li Si's fellow disciple.
There are too many ways to make life worse than death. In contrast, the dismemberment of five horses is just the simplest and most brutal punishment, and it will only cause a little pain when you die.
Fusu still had a very hesitant expression, and he asked tentatively: "Father, did you have anything unusual yesterday?"
Fusu thought about it over and over again, feeling that the mirror of cause and effect would not disappear out of thin air. He remembered Ying Zheng's brief runaway yesterday, and some doubted that the mirror of cause and effect ran to Ying Zheng.
The causal mirror is not something that ordinary people can bear. He is afraid that Ying Zheng will fall ill like Shang Hua because of the existence of the causal mirror, so he entered the palace to look for Ying Zheng as soon as the arch opened.
"No." Ying Zheng replied lightly, with a calm expression on his face, and he also brought a perfect doubt, "Is there anything unusual about me?"
Seeing that Ying Zheng's face was normal, it seemed that he was lying. After hesitating, he still honestly told Ying Zheng about the existence of the Cause and Effect Mirror, saying that it was an "immortal" placed on Shang Hua, hoping that he could use the Cause and Effect Mirror to understand the causes and consequences of the edict in the "Dream". Last time Shang Hua fell seriously ill because of its existence. He was worried that the running around the Cause and Effect Mirror would make Ying Zheng sick too.
When Ying Zheng heard Fusu's incident, he even told him the truth, and felt that his son was even more stupid.
Ying Zheng said, "Do you think I'm having something wrong?" He talked nonsense, "Maybe it found that everything is different, so it disappeared by itself."
Although he promised the Cause and Effect Mirror to tell Fusu about the cause and effect, he did not say when it was told. Now, it is not the time yet.
Besides, if this kid ends that cause and effect, completely let go of his heart and go out to sea to find some fairy mountain, who will he be the prince?
Anyway, the mirror of cause and effect has completely disappeared, and no matter how suspicious Fusu doubts, he can't find it, so he just let Fusu think it disappeared out of thin air.
Seeing that Ying Zheng was indeed nothing, Fusu could only say with concern: "If the father is unwell, you must tell the child."
Ying Zheng said, "Okay, I will pay attention."
The author has something to say:
Ying Zheng: I didn't cheat on the mirror
Ying Zheng: When I am about to die, I will tell Fusu about this
