Chapter 10 Wind and Snow Going to Xianyang

Time flies by so fast, and half a year has passed in the blink of an eye. It is the New Year of the tenth year after Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries.

There was heavy goose-feather snow in the sky above Shangjun, and the sky and the earth were so vast that only the outlines of people could be seen clearly from a few steps away. At this time, an army was slowly marching in from outside Shangjun City. The leader was wearing a white bear skin coat.

The long sword hanging on it is none other than Fusu.

It turned out that because of Meng Tian's help, Fusu began to continuously confirm his prestige in the army. In the past six months, he had become a general second only to Meng Tian in the frontier army. This was largely due to his status as a modern man, because

He treats everyone equally and does not look down on the soldiers because of his special status. Except for sleeping, he can be said to eat and live with the Qin soldiers completely. Therefore, the soldiers' feelings for him are also

As he becomes more passionate, it may not take long for him to truly become the absolute leader of this elite army, and Meng Tian is also happy to see this happen.

Back in the hotel, Xiao Tao took off the big cloak and thick bearskin jacket for him, and he walked to the bedroom in light clothes. In the hotel, he ordered people to go everywhere

They all had a brazier burning, so they didn't feel cold even though they were wearing thin clothes.

As he walked, he smiled at Xiao Tao and said, "The snow is really heavy today, and the snow scenery is beautiful. It's a pity that your injury has just healed and you can't bear the cold. Otherwise, I would have taken you to see the snow scenery."

Xiao Tao's face turned red due to the heat of the brazier, which was really cute. She laughed when she heard the sound and said: "The prince went out not to enjoy the snow scene, but the servant followed him and asked the prince to take care of him. It's better to watch the snow scene from a distance in the pavilion. You can enjoy it at the same time."

Wouldn’t it be nice to see the snowy scenery without getting cold?”

"Well, what you said makes sense." Fusu said and pinched Xiao Tao's cheek affectionately. Xiao Tao's face showed a shy look after being squeezed by his hand: "Prince...

." The voice became softer and softer.

Fusu knew from the look on her face that this little girl was in love with him, but he didn't dare to have any wrong thoughts about this little girl who was much younger than his sister in the previous life. Although he knew that she was like a girl now.

Even if a woman like Xiao Tao had her own child, it was normal, but he still couldn't do such a thing.

Just when the feeling between the two became subtle and awkward, a guard came over and broke the awkwardness.

"Prince, this is a secret message sent from Xianyang." The guard said and handed over a small roll of silk. In order to use pigeons to convey messages, Fusu and Wu Lin all used silk to communicate with each other.

.Although it was a large expense, Fusu thought it was worth it. Thinking about how much manpower and material resources were spent on timely intelligence by various countries in the 21st century, he felt that this investment was already considered.

What a big deal.

He reached out and took the silk book but did not open it to read it. He just asked: "It has been snowing heavily for several days on the border of my upper county. How did this pigeon get here?"

"What the prince said is that this secret message was not sent by pigeons, but by people."

"Oh? Where is that person now?"

"My subordinates have ordered someone to bring him here and are waiting outside."

"Call him here. I have been exchanging letters with them, so I can ask him about the details of Xianyang." After saying this, Fusu went to the side room where he often discussed military and political affairs with Meng Tian and others.

After the visitor greeted Fusu, Fusu said with a smile: "You have worked hard all the way through the snow. Come and have a sip of soup to warm yourself up." As he spoke, he put the bowl of thick soup cooked by the orcs in front of him.

put it in front of him.

The man took the bowl, his eyes were filled with tears of gratitude, and he drank the thick soup in one gulp without fear of burning it. He wiped the soup stains around his mouth with his sleeves and said, "Thank you, Prince, for the gift."

Tang, my subordinates came here from Xianyang this time. One reason is that the snow is too heavy to fly pigeons to deliver messages. More importantly, Captain Wu has heard that the emperor is about to patrol the east. The prince has also told you to report to you quickly once the emperor leaves the palace.

, and then we came here after traveling day and night.”

Fusu asked them to watch Qin Shihuang's movements just on a whim. He didn't really think that they could complete the task completely. Unexpectedly, they got an unexpected gain. He hurriedly asked: "How did you find out about this news?"

"This is the news that Captain Wu sent a brother with relatives in Xianyang to sneak into the palace and learn from the maids and eunuchs. Just because they were preparing carriages and horses for the emperor's eastern tour, he went through many twists and turns

I just heard the news."

"I didn't expect Qin Shihuang to be on an eastward tour. It seems that after spring it will be time for him to set off. I have to hurry up." Fusu thought about it in his mind and then asked: "Do you have anything else to learn about Hu Hai in Xianyang?"

Have you heard about what happened?"

"Except for what is said in the silk book, there is nothing else going on. He went to the Prime Minister's Mansion three times but was not allowed to enter."

"Prime Minister Li Si won't let Hu Hai enter the palace?" Fusu asked.

"Yes, Hu Hai came to see Li Si with gifts, but he refused to meet him because he was not feeling well. Our brothers even laughed at Hu Hai privately, saying that he had a cold face on someone's hot ass."

"Isn't Li Si another accomplice of Hu Hai becoming the emperor? Why would he reject Hu Hai?" After hearing what he said, Fusu felt even more confused and had to say: "You go down and have a rest first."

"Yes, I will resign first."

Fusu sat on the couch, closing his eyes and thinking about the news. Xiao Tao behind him was gently beating his back for him. "Obviously Li Si is not completely on Hu Hai's side yet. Maybe Li Si is not on the side of Hu Hai in history."

I also vacillated between Fusu and Hu Hai, but finally I was forced to fall in favor of Hu Hai due to the situation, which means that I still have a chance to win Li Si's support for me." Fusu's mood changed when he thought of this.

Although he subconsciously did not think about Li Si, he still knew in his subconscious that Hu Hai had such a capable person to help him, which made him confident that he could defeat Hu Hai.

With great hope. But now that he knows that Li Si has not sided with Hu Hai at least yet, he can accept him as his support.

"But how can we convince him to choose me over Hu Hai? After all, I am far away from Xianyang, but Hu Hai can be close to the water. And it is not easy to find someone to convince him. I only have people who are good at fighting, not people who can argue.

Ah." The more Fusu thought about it, the more clueless he became, so he had no choice but to stop thinking about it and sighed dejectedly.

Xiao Tao heard his sigh and asked, "Is there something you can't understand, Prince? Why are you sighing?"

"You won't understand even if I tell you." Fusu said.

"The slave doesn't understand, but now there are people in the hotel who can understand."

"Who are they? Except for General Meng, there are all ordinary soldiers here. What I want to do is too complicated, how can they understand it."

"That's Dr. Li Hengli who treated Xiao Tao's injuries. When talking to him, Xiao Tao found that he was very knowledgeable."

Fusu then remembered that Li Heng behaved differently from ordinary doctors when they first met him. He had already made a decision and stood up and said, "I'll go to Doctor Li's place to have a look."

Li Heng was admiring the snow in front of the window. When he saw Fu Su coming in, he hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen the prince before."

Fusu also gave a salute and said: "Sir saved my life and Xiaotao's life, but Fusu forgot to thank you because he was in the military. I'm really ashamed."

"The prince's status is noble. The only thing a villain can save the prince is God."

"Looking at your behavior, sir, it seems that he is not the country man you once said he was." Fusu said straight into the tunnel.

"This... why did the prince say this?"

"Sir, you can live calmly in this hotel, and you can drink wine and enjoy the snow without feeling anything wrong. It can be seen that you are a pampered person. I hope you can tell me your true identity. Fusu will not

It’s difficult for you, sir.”

Li Heng looked at Fu Su for a long time before saying: "It seems that the prince has already been suspicious of my identity. Well, I will tell you frankly that I am a guest of Zhao State General Li Mu. After Li Mu was killed

He wandered around until he was captured and built the Great Wall."

"It seems that you, sir, have a lot of ambitions in mind. Can you join me and serve under Fusu?"

When Li Heng heard this, he was overjoyed and said: "That's why I don't dare to ask for it."

Fusu was also overjoyed, and arranged for a banquet to be had with Li Heng. After drinking for thirty days, Li Heng said: "The prince suddenly came to see me today. He must have something difficult to explain and wants to ask me."

Fusu said awkwardly: "As expected, Mr. Fusu has something difficult to solve. I would like to ask you to give me some advice." After that, he told Li Heng everything about Li Si.

Li Heng listened to him quietly, and then said: "It seems that Prime Minister Li did not express his position because of one person."

"What's the meaning?"

"Li Heng once heard that the emperor now has a favored chamberlain named Zhao Gao, and the relationship between him and Hu Hai is quite close."

"You mean that Li Si doesn't completely side with Hu Hai because of Zhao Gao?"

"Yes, as the saying goes, one mountain cannot accommodate two tigers."

"Then it seems that I still have a chance. Fusu is willing to ask Mr. to go to Xianyang on my behalf to convince Li Si to help me." Fusu stood up and bowed.

Li Heng hurriedly stood up and said: "I'm afraid I can't even get through the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion if I speak softly. And the best candidate to convince Li Si is the prince himself."

"Yes, I can only really convince him if I go there myself." Thinking of this, Fusu hurriedly bowed to Li Heng and said, "Thank you, sir, for your advice."

Then the two discussed how to persuade Li Si until late at night.

Early the next morning, Fusu called Meng Tian over and told him what to do after he left.

"As long as I can convince Li Si this time, we will be even more certain of defeating Hu Hai. The general will first announce that I have caught a cold and need to rest, and Fusu will definitely come back as soon as possible."

"Meng Tian wishes the prince immediate success."

The snow between heaven and earth did not weaken at all, but Fusu and more than a dozen guards rushed to Xianyang City despite the heavy snow. Xiao Tao's words of concern were still ringing in his ears. Fusu knew that this time he was not just doing it for himself.

People are busy and working hard for those who are on the same front as themselves...
