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

Chapter 9 Zhao Gao and Hu Hai speculate that the master who gave Fusu guidance was Meng Yi!

"Teacher, why are you here? Aren't you supposed to be accompanying your father at this time?"

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao who walked into the hall and put down the plaything in his hand.

"After His Majesty retires from the court, he goes to the alchemy room to find Master Xu Fu to discuss the matter of the elixir."

"The old servant knows that the young master is angry in his heart because of what happened in the court."

"I came here specifically to see the young master."

Zhao Gao sat down and looked at Hu Hai with a smile on his face.

"Humph!"

"Teacher, you saw it in the court today. Fusu actually suggested to my father that the nobles of the Six Nations should not be allowed to return to their homeland."

"Yesterday in the court, he clearly suggested to my father that the nobles of the six countries should return to their homeland."

"Why did you change your statement today? My father's face softened a lot after hearing Fusu's words."

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao and expressed his dissatisfaction.

In the court today, he thought he could see his father punishing Fusu for the matter of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms.

Even if his father didn't punish Fusu, he would still scold him.

As a result, Fusu's performance exceeded everyone's expectations and overturned his own words yesterday.

It was as if he had become a different person, and he even won praise from his father.

Hu Hai always wanted his father to hate Fusu so that he could have a chance to become the next emperor of Qin.

Fusu's performance today made Hu Hai angry but also a little scared.

He is not afraid of Fusu contradicting his father, he is only afraid that Fusu will win his father's favor.

"Young master, please don't worry too much. I will also think carefully about Fusu's strange behavior in the court today."

"Fusu would never have thought that returning the nobles of the six countries to their homeland would be detrimental to the Qin Dynasty."

"Someone must be teaching Fusu behind his back, so that Fusu's remarks before overthrowing him in the court today were praised by His Majesty."

A cold light flashed from the corner of Zhao Gao's slender eyes.

Hu Hai was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhao Gao's words, and quickly reacted and looked at Zhao Gao:

"The teacher is saying that there is an expert behind Fusu. Could this person be Chun Yuyue?"

"Chun Yuyue, this old rotten scholar, is Fusu's teacher."

"He has the ability to make Fusu say these words in the court."

Hu Hai looked at Zhao Gao and mentioned Chunyu Yue's name.

Zhao Gao heard Hu Hai's words and shook his head: "Chun Yuyue does have this ability, but Chunyu Yue will not teach Fusu to say this in the court."

"According to the spies arranged by the old slave at Chunyu Yue's house, Chunyu Yue returned to the house and became furious."

"Not only did he throw away many precious books, but he also punished several servants."

"Fusu in the court today opposed the return of the nobles of the six countries to their homeland. This must have violated Chunyu Yue's interests."

"Chun Yuyue will not give up his own interests to help Fusu. This person became Fusu's teacher because he valued Fusu's status and reputation and could do many things for him."

Hu Hai had a look of confusion on his face when he heard that Zhao Gao had rejected Chun Yuyue's advice to Fusu.

All he could think of was Chun Yuyue. If not Chun Yuyue, who else could he be?

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai, who looked confused, with a smile on his face:
"Old slave has already guessed who is behind Fusu's back!"

"Who is it? Teacher, tell me quickly!"

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai, who had an anxious look on his face, and said with a faint smile: "The Meng family supports Fusu."

"Meng Yi also tried his best to support Fusu in the court. It must be Meng Yi who taught Fusu to say this in the court."

"The Meng family has been in the military for generations, and Meng Yi is also a famous general."

"Of course I know that the nobles of the six countries will do things that are detrimental to the Qin Dynasty when they return to their homeland. Fusu has always respected the Meng family."

"Fusu will definitely listen to what Meng Yi taught Fusu."

Hu Hai was stunned for a moment when he heard Zhao Gao's words, and then he realized there was a gloomy look on his face.

"Meng family!"

Hu Hai said these two words fiercely. The Meng family of military generals had always supported Fusu, and his father also knew it.

Fusu is his enemy. The Meng family supports Fusu, so naturally they are also his enemies.

Now Meng Yi taught Fusu again, which made Hu Hai even more angry. Hu Hai felt even more dissatisfied. He felt that he was no worse than Fusu. Why did the Meng family support Fusu but not him.

"When this young master succeeds to the throne, the Meng family will be uprooted from the Qin Dynasty."

"When that day comes, I will still need the teacher's help."

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

"Obviously, I will listen to what the young master says."

"Whoever is an enemy of Young Master is an enemy of me, Zhao Gao!"

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai with a hint of sinisterness on his face.

He was also very dissatisfied with the Meng family, and Meng Yi never had to look at him.

Zhao Gao just didn't say anything, but he remembered this hatred in his heart.

On the day Hu Hai succeeded to the throne and dealt with the Meng family, Zhao Gao also wanted to take revenge.

"Young master, there is no need to be angry. Fusu has only temporarily received your majesty's praise."

"Meng Yi is just a general. Even if he can teach Fusu, it won't last long."

"Fusu is still the same Fusu as before, it's just a temporary change."

Zhao Gao looked at Hu Hai and comforted him again.

"I understand what the teacher said, and I will count on the teacher for help in the future."

"This old slave is a young master, and he will go through fire and water without hesitation."

Hu Hai and Zhao Gao looked at each other and smiled, with a hint of viciousness in their eyes.

The Meng Family Mansion in Xianyang!

With a smile on his face, Meng Yi got off the carriage and entered the mansion, walked into the hall and sat at the main seat.

"Someone bring me a jug of wine, General!"

Meng Yi finished speaking, and soon a delicate-looking young woman wearing a white skirt slowly entered the hall with a pot of wine in her hand.

"Dad, what's going on today? Are you going to drink as soon as you get home?"

The young woman placed the wine bottle on the table in front of Meng Yi with a smile on her face.

"It turns out to be Yun'er. Why did you personally deliver wine to my father today?"

Meng Yi looked at the young woman with a smile on his face.

This young woman is Meng Yi's eldest daughter Meng Yun'er. She is proficient in reading and martial arts and is very fond of Meng Yi.

"When my father returns from the imperial court, Yun'er will naturally come to bring him wine."

Meng Yun'er looked at Meng Yi with a smile on her face.

Meng Yi drank a glass of wine and looked at his daughter: "My father is really happy today."

"Today in the court, Master Fusu once again mentioned the matter of the nobles of the six countries wanting to return to their homeland."

"My father felt very disappointed at the time. I thought that Mr. Fusu would be scolded or even punished by His Majesty."

"What surprised my father is that Mr. Fusu was in court today to oppose the return of the nobles of the six countries to their homeland."

"All the ministers in the court were shocked. They did not expect that Mr. Fusu would overturn the one who was in the court yesterday."

"His Majesty was very happy to hear Fusu's words today, and even praised Mr. Fusu a few words."

"Mr. Fusu has often been scolded by His Majesty during this period, and today he finally received His Majesty's praise."

"As a father, I am naturally happy. I must have a few drinks when I get back to my house."

Meng Yi said, pouring another glass of wine and drinking it in one gulp.

Being in the court today was more exciting for him than fighting. Fortunately, His Majesty praised His Highness Fusu.

The Meng family supports Mr. Fusu. It is a good thing for the Meng family that Mr. Fusu is valued by His Majesty.

Meng Yuner frowned slightly when she heard Meng Yi's words, and after a moment she looked at Meng Yi:

"Father, you just said that Mr. Fusu suggested to Your Majesty yesterday that the nobles of the six countries should return to their homeland."

"Why did Mr. Fusu overturn yesterday's remarks today and oppose the return of the nobles of the six countries to their homeland?"

"Yun'er feels that things are not that simple!"
