Chapter 39 Feng Quji Eats a Fly
Even Feng Quji was shocked when he heard Chunyu Yue's request.
What Gongzi Yuan said is absolutely true. How could there be such shameless people in this world!
He had just impeached Yan Le and had him sent to the Supreme Court, where he was going to be executed in a few days, and now Chunyu Yue was making a fuss about Yan Le, a dying man?
There's a limit to shamelessness, right?
Although Feng Quji didn't mind others coming up to step on the Zhao party, he even welcomed it.
but.
What level and status do you, Chunyu Yue, hold? What the hell are you requesting?
Opening his mouth at this moment would be as disgusting as feeding a fly into the mouth of Feng Quji, the right prime minister of the current dynasty!
"Returning to hometown to worship ancestors?"
"This is a matter concerning the nobles of the old six kingdoms. Why are you, Chunyu Yue, making this report in the Qilin Palace?"
"Is there any private communication?"
Feng Quji snorted coldly.
He is not a person who loses his temper, but because of his position, he has to say something.
Just now he stepped on Yan Le and won the favor of Gongzi Yuan. Now Chunyu Yue is taking advantage of the Yan Le incident. Who knows what Gongzi Yuan is thinking?
To put it bluntly, court officials are just businessmen above politics, and the price of interests is sometimes clearer. For him, a Prince Yuan who came to the court to observe politics, won the favor of the army, and might even become famous for his divine grain a year later, is much more valuable than a corrupt scholar like Chunyu Yue.
These words were so heartbreaking that Chunyu Yue's face froze and his eyes looked a little strange. He even doubted his life.
Didn't I just help Feng Quji and stepped on Yan Le? Why did he bite me?
"Prime Minister Feng is wrong."
"Prince Fusu established the Hall of Selecting Talents and opened up avenues for people to express their opinions. The nobles of the old six kingdoms want to return to their homeland to worship their ancestors. This is a filial piety."
"Of course,"
"After all, it was the grace of His Majesty the First Emperor who raised them in Xianyang. They are afraid of failing to live up to His Majesty's kindness, so they submitted it to the Juxian Hall."
"One is to seek your opinion, and the other is to ask Master Fusu to submit the memorial on my behalf."
"Dr. Chunyu and I are the managers of Juxian Hall, so we will naturally share the worries for Prince Fusu."
At this moment, Shusun Tong stood up and responded with a smile.
He saw things more clearly than Chunyu Yue, and naturally understood the meaning of Feng Quji's words. He came up with a countermeasure immediately.
Using the excuse of the First Emperor's "kindness" and Prince Fusu's establishment of the Juxian Hall, Chunyu Yue was perfectly cleared of the suspicion of having secret dealings with the nobles of the six old states.
Moreover, using the name of "kindness" makes it difficult for others to refute.
Otherwise, wouldn't this be an announcement of the fact that Qin was placing the nobles of the six former kingdoms under house arrest?
But Shusun Tong was also a little strange.
Why did Feng Quji's attitude towards Ying Yuan change so much overnight?
Could it be that this Young Master Yuan has already had private communication with Prime Minister Feng?
Thinking of this, Shusun Tong couldn't help but glance at Ying Yuan.
And this glance almost made his eyelids twitch.
The Sixth Prince of the Qin Dynasty yawned loudly, looking as if he had no interest in the court affairs at all, and simply ignored their fight.
He was listening, of course he was listening, but this Young Master Yuan had absolutely no sense of kindness or fighting!
Feng Quji sneered and said nothing more.
His one sentence was enough, and naturally people would talk about the affairs of the nobles of the old six kingdoms.
"Your Majesty's kindness is known to everyone in the world, and there is no need for this to highlight it."
"The Great Qin has not unified the world for long, so sending the nobles of the old six kingdoms back to their homeland is not a good thing."
"If there was a rebellion in the area when these people were offering sacrifices to their ancestors, would it be related to this?"
"What if they return and are held hostage by others and then label themselves as members of the old royal family?"
"War and chaos should be eliminated without any trace, and should not be allowed to return!"
At this moment, Li Si slowly stood up and spoke in a deep voice. The previous words were fine, just expressing his opinion.
But the following words almost made it clear that if the nobles of the old six kingdoms were allowed to return to their homeland to worship their ancestors, there would definitely be a rebellion.
Feng Quji would not say such a thing, because he would offend someone!
Fusu!
Fusu's expression froze, and he first looked at his two teachers, feeling a little depressed.
They actually reported such a big thing directly in the court!
Immediately afterwards, the kind thoughts in Fusu's heart surged again.
Ancestor worship is a filial piety from ancient times to the present day. It is also the second most important ritual after offering sacrifices to heaven. It can even be said to be a must.
During the Spring and Autumn Period, even if there was a war, when it was the princes' turn to worship their ancestors, the powerful country could not attack.
Now if they really had to stop the nobles of the old six kingdoms from returning to their homeland to worship their ancestors, Fusu would feel reluctant.
At this moment, he was the most uncomfortable person in the court.
After watching the show for a long time, Ying Yuan turned his gaze directly to his brother.
He understood that the key to this matter did not lie with these two doctors and the two prime ministers, but with Fusu.
If Fusu shook his head, Chunyu Yue and Shusun Tong would be just two clowns!
But if Fusu firmly supports them, I'm afraid his father will be in a difficult situation!
Of course, the difficult part is not the resolution, but how the emperor should appropriately scold his elder brother when the time comes.
Thinking of this, Ying Yuan even smiled with a bit of evil humor.
Not to mention, he was really looking forward to seeing the greatest emperor in history scolding his son in public, such a famous scene of loving father and filial son.
"Fusu, since this matter is related to Juxian Hall, do you know about it?"
On the high platform, His Majesty the First Emperor glanced lightly and spoke softly.
he,
What I am asking is not Fusu's opinion, but whether Fusu knows!
When this question was asked, Chunyu Yue and Shusun Tong immediately became nervous.
If Prince Fusu shook his head, the two of them would be in trouble.
Fusu frowned, clenched his fists tightly in his sleeves until his knuckles turned white, and slowly stood up.
His face was full of hesitation and confusion.
All the civil and military officials in the court looked at the eldest son. They didn't expect much, after all, one sentence could not decide the matter. But... judging from their expressions, it seemed that Chunyu Yue and Shusun Tong were really being a little too bold and presumptuous?
"Your Majesty, I know."
As soon as Fusu said this, a hint of disappointment flashed in the eyes of Emperor Qin Shihuang on the high platform.
However, Ying Yuan's eyes were sparkling with surprise and expectation!
Hurry, hurry, hurry! Father, expose my brother, then show your kindness to your son, and kill Chunyu Yue and Shusun Tong, the two old bastards!
The famous scene immediately turns into a dark scene. Who wouldn't be looking forward to it?
This exciting feeling is so great!
However, this feeling of pleasure did not even last three seconds.
because
A majestic voice came from the high platform:
"Yuan'er, what do you think about this?"
After saying this, Ying Yuan almost burst into tears.
Dad, you are so unkind! My elder brother lied to you, so why don't you beat him up? It's a bit too much for me to answer this question while I am just watching the show!
