Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 62 The conversation between Zhao Gao and Hu Hai! Zhao Gao's plan to win over ministers!
Zhao Gao entered the study, picked up the bamboo slips scattered on the ground and put them on the bookshelf.

"Teacher, you also saw Fusu's performance in the court today."

"Those ministers brought out all the ancestors of my master and wanted to use these ancestors to suppress Fusu."

"Fusu was unmoved. Instead of being suppressed, he used his ancestors to scold these ministers."

"What annoys me the most is that my father actually agreed to Fusu's suggestion."

"Teacher, you have been with my father for many years, so you naturally understand what this means."

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao and told him the reason for his anger.

Zhao Gao sat down with a gloomy look on his face.

How could he not know what Hu Hai had just said? The ministers in the court today mentioned the previous kings of the Qin Dynasty.

Zhao Gao also thought that His Majesty would choose to compromise, but unexpectedly His Majesty actually agreed to Fusu's request.

This made Zhao Gao feel a little scared, and His Majesty valued Fusu more and more.

After Hu Hai and Zhao Gao complained, they felt better.

"Why did the teacher come to the student's house today? Could it be that my father went to the alchemy room to refine elixirs again?"

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao with a trace of doubt on his face and said.

"The old slave came to the young master's house just to talk about this matter. After retreating from the court, your majesty asked the old slave to ask Fusu to go to the study."

"His Majesty is probably still talking to Fusu now. The old slave cannot enter the study to listen, so he came to the young master's house to tell the young master this matter."

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai and told him the reason why he came to the mansion.

"what?"

"Father actually met Fusu in the study?"

Hu Hai stood up and looked at Zhao Gao with his eyes widened and a pale look on his face.

It had been a long time since he heard his father meeting Fusu in the study, not just Fusu.

Even he was rarely called to the study by his father, and now Fusu was called to the study by his father.

Hu Hai had a trace of fear in his heart. This was very bad news for him.

"Teacher, can you guess why my father asked Fusu to go to the study?"

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao with a solemn look on his face.

Zhao Gao has been with his father for many years, and Hu Hai can only hope that Zhao Gao can guess the reason.

After hearing Hu Hai's words, Zhao Gao thought for a while, looked at Hu Hai and said:
"If this old servant is not wrong, Your Majesty will ask Fusu to go to the study."

"It's also because of Fusu's changes in the court these days. Fusu's changes are not limited to us."

"Your Majesty will feel suspicious when he sees Fusu now. Your Majesty will definitely ask why Fusu has changed so much."

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai and expressed his guess.

Hu Hai nodded slightly when he heard Zhao Gao's words. He felt that what Zhao Gao said made sense.

"Teacher, did the people you sent to investigate Fusu return any useful information?"

"Has the person who helped Su Su been found out?"

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao and told what he wanted to know most.

He and Zhao Gao have determined that Fusu has expert help behind him, as shown by Fusu's performance in the court today.

It further convinced the two of them that the person behind Fusu would not be Meng Yi.

If the person behind Fusu is not found out, Hu Hai will always be afraid.

Zhao Gao shook his head slightly when he heard Hu Hai's words: "The people sent by the old slave to investigate."

"The news came back. Except for Lin Xuan mentioned by several disciples who have taken refuge in your sect, no suspicious people have been found around Fusu for the time being."

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai and told him what he knew.

Including the news about Lin Xuan, a disciple of Fusu, which is exactly the same as what several disciples under Hu Hai said. In addition to drinking and watching the scenery every day, I just sleep in!
Hu Hai felt a little irritated when he heard Zhao Gao's words. He frowned and looked at Zhao Gao and said:
"Teacher, tell me, could the master behind Fusu be Lin Xuan?"

"Almost all the customers around Fusu have left, only Lin Xuan and a few customers are left."

"Students are worried, is this person hiding his clumsiness?"

Hu Hai mentioned Lin Xuan with a hint of doubt in his heart.

Zhao Gao had a helpless smile on his face and said, "Young master, you are worrying too much."

"Fusu has taken refuge with several of your disciples, and they have already told you about Lin Xuan."

"The people sent by the old slave also investigated this Lin Xuan, and it is exactly the same as what several of your disciples said."

"If this person was really capable of making such a big change in Fusu, Fusu would not have been scolded by His Majesty for so long."

"If this person is the master behind Fusu, why would he appear so arrogantly in Fusu's house?"

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai and expressed what he was thinking.

He felt that Hu Hai was too nervous and Zhao Gao had been in the palace for many years.

After experiencing too many ups and downs, he was very confident that Lin Xuan would not be the master behind Fusu.

He's just a lazy, lazy person who just pretends to be stupid.

Hu Hai nodded slightly when he heard Zhao Gao's words, maybe he was overthinking.

For such a arrogant and lazy person, Hu Hai now feels that he is not an expert capable of assisting Fusu.

"Young master, there is no need to be angry about what happened in the morning court today. Fusu shined brightly in the morning court today and got your majesty's support."

"But Fusu's suggestion also completely offended the ministers in the court."

"The next days for Fusu will not be easy."

Zhao Gao looked at the sad-faced Hu Hai and comforted him.

"Oh?"

"What do you mean by this, teacher?"

Hu Hai had a look of doubt on his face when he heard Zhao Gao's words.

"Once the elderly ministers of the Great Qin Dynasty resign, their eldest sons will inherit their positions."

"This is also the tradition of Great Qin. Your Majesty will start from the moment he succeeds to the throne."

"This tradition has continued. Today, Fusu proposed that all sons of ministers who resigned have the opportunity to inherit the official position."

"It is destroying the plans of these ministers. These ministers need their eldest son to inherit the official position and maintain the family's influence in Great Qin."

"Once the other sons of these ministers inherit official positions, they may not necessarily be dominated by the family."

"In this way, the influence of the family will gradually disappear."

"His Majesty agreed to Fusu's suggestion. These family-dominated ministers must really hate Fusu in their hearts."

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai and told the reason why these ministers hated Fusu.

Hu Hai had a smile on his face when he heard Zhao Gao's words. He quickly frowned and looked at Zhao Gao and said:
"Teacher, even if these ministers hold grudge against Fusu, it will not do the students any good."

"Fusu's proposal was approved by my father. The most the ministers in the court did was insult Fusu behind his back."

When Fusu heard that the ministers in the court had a trace of disdain on their faces.

In fact, he also disliked some ministers in the court. In Hu Hai's view, some ministers were just pretending to be good, and they just had good families to support them.

Zhao Gao shook his head slightly when he heard Hu Hai's words, raised the corners of his mouth slightly and looked at Hu Hai and said:
"Young Master, what you said would be wrong, if it weren't for Fusu's proposal this morning."

"The most the ministers in the court can do is talk about Fusu behind his back and insult Fusu."

"After Fusu's proposal was made public this morning, the hatred between these ministers and Fusu can't be resolved with just insults."

"This is about whether the families of these ministers can pass it on."
