When Fusu walked out of Xiaotao's room, the murderous intent in his eyes had calmed down. Meng Tian was still standing there waiting for him at the door. Fusu smiled at him and said, "I'm fine. I want to be alone and think about some issues."

.”

"Yes, I'll take my leave for now." Meng Tian bowed and walked away. Fusu also returned to his room.

He looked at the room, which was not very luxurious, and deeply understood that he had nothing now. The only thing he could rely on was his identity as the eldest son of Qin Shihuang. But this was not enough for him. There was no one in the court.

There are not many people supporting him, even if there are, because history has proved that although Fusu made a lot of achievements after being sent to the north by Qin Shihuang, no one spoke well of him in front of Yingzheng, and Hu Hai eventually killed him. As for Fusu,

All the military power here belongs to Meng Tian. Although it can be known from history books that Meng Tian was loyal to Fusu and committed suicide because of Fusu's death, but now he should be loyal to Qin Shihuang. If you want to persuade him to help now,

When dealing with Hu Hai by himself, would he think that he was disobedient and instead put himself in a passive position? But if he does not cultivate his own strength quickly, then after Qin Shihuang dies, Zhao Gao, Hu Hai, Li Si and others will

If all the people who were originally loyal to Qin Shihuang were taken into his own hands, then he would be like the original Fusu, either killed or committing suicide. Even if he escaped, his life would not be easy in the future.

"It seems that I have to take this gamble. Time is running out. As long as I can persuade Meng Tian to stand on the same front as me, then through his relationship, I can get hundreds of thousands of Da Qin's border troops. With this

With the family wealth, I can compete with Hu Hai and others, and I will not be passive after the sudden death of Qin Shihuang." Fusu made up his mind, but he did not relax because he knew that he had to wait and see if he wanted to get that family wealth.

Meng Tian meant that as long as he refused to help him, everything would be the same as what happened in history. Thinking of this, he walked towards Meng Tian's residence.

Meng Tian was arranging the defense changes of some generals at this time. When he saw Fusu coming, he hurriedly asked the generals to go back. Then he asked Fusu to sit down and asked: "Is the eldest prince personally coming here for the purpose of assassination?"

Fusu was not busy answering him, but asked Meng Tian: "Does General Meng think the world is peaceful?"

Meng Tian smiled and said: "The world is peaceful, but some remnants of the Six Kingdoms have resentment towards our Great Qin, which makes people panic. The Huns who always harassed our borders have been pushed back hundreds of miles.

As long as we give time, our country, the Qin Dynasty, will be able to regain the prosperity of the Zhou Dynasty."

"What does General Meng think of my emperor's younger brother? If he is allowed to inherit the throne, will our country be able to bring the world to its center?"

Meng Tian couldn't help but be startled when he heard this. He didn't expect Fusu to ask such a straightforward question. He thought for a moment and prepared his words: "The second prince's personality is similar to that of the emperor."

"You mean he is cruel? He is not suitable to inherit the throne?"

"No..." Meng Tian quickly denied after hearing this.

"Does that mean that he can inherit the throne, and under his rule our Great Qin will be prosperous for generations to come?"

Meng Tian didn't expect that Fusu's words today would be so aggressive, and he didn't know how to reply.

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Fusu changed the topic: "I know that you are loyal to the emperor and to our Great Qin. You also hope that our Great Qin will last forever, and you also hope that the emperor can really live forever, but there is really no chance of immortality.

Human? Don’t you think about who will inherit the throne if the emperor dies?"

Hearing this, Meng Tian fully understood the purpose of Fu Su's visit. It turned out that he was trying to convince himself to stand on his side in the struggle for the throne. Thinking of this, Meng Tian's eyes lit up: "The eldest prince seems to be

I have forgotten what Meng Tian said to you back then. When the emperor first unified the world eight years ago, the last general once said that I should be loyal to the eldest prince just like Wang Ben is loyal to the emperor. At that time, the eldest prince even scolded me and said that I should only be loyal to the emperor.

There’s only one person.”

"Is there such a thing?" Fusu was overjoyed, but he said calmly: "I was still young back then, and you were young and vigorous. What I said at that time was not accurate, and I didn't ask you to be loyal to the emperor.

Wrong."

"The general will know. But if I have to choose between the second prince and the eldest prince, Meng Tian will definitely be loyal to the eldest prince."

Hearing his words, Fusu was really relieved. With Meng Tian's promise, Fusu got hundreds of thousands of horses under his command, and at the same time, he got the generals of three generations of his Meng family.

Huge network of connections. "Thank you, General, for looking up to me, Fusu. To be honest, my brother Hu Hai was responsible for this assassination. Now I have no way out and can only fight with him." Fusu said sincerely.

typical.

Meng Tian said: "Although I have made a promise to the eldest prince today, my family background has been favored by Great Qin, so I am still loyal to the Great Qin court. Although I am loyal to the prince, I will not do anything that will harm my Great Qin."

"Of course." Fusu said with a smile, "I just want you to help me inherit the throne." After saying that, he stretched out his right hand, and Meng Tian also stretched out his hand to hold it together. With these two hands firmly holding each other,

Together, the great wheel of Chinese history began to turn.

Zhao Gao and Hu Hai were still sitting opposite each other at Hu Hai's house in Xianyang. Zhao Gao took a sip of the wine in his hand and said, "Second Prince, did you really send someone to assassinate him?"

Hu Hai said calmly: "Yes, I don't know if the assassination was successful or not."

Zhao Gaodao: "The second prince sent a royal descendant of Qi State to assassinate him. How sure do you think you can be?"

Hu Hai asked strangely: "How do you know that the people I sent are descendants of Qi's royal family?"

"Because I also sent people, and he died in the hands of the people I sent."

"What?" Hu Hai stood up suddenly and stared at Zhao Gao, "Don't you want his life? Or have you surrendered to him?"

Zhao Gao chuckled, pressed Hu Hai's shoulder and said: "Why is the second prince so angry? I haven't finished speaking yet. It is true that my people killed him, but it was after he fell into Fusu's hands.

My men shot him to death in order to silence him, and they also shot the eldest prince with an arrow."

"Is he dead?" After hearing Zhao Gao's explanation, Hu Hai calmed down and asked.

"No, he was blocked by someone, so the arrow didn't hit him. My people realized that there was no chance and were afraid of being caught, so they left. After that, he tried to sneak into Fusu's hotel several times but failed

They couldn't succeed, so they had to rush back and report to me. After this assassination, I'm afraid it will be impossible for us to assassinate Fusu again, and we can only do it from the emperor."

"I didn't expect that his fate would be so great." Hu Hai sighed, without a trace of flesh and blood. "It's true as you said, we have no chance to assassinate him again. Meng Tian will definitely keep his defense to a minimum.

We can only start somewhere else.”

Then the two discussed some countermeasures and the officials they wanted to win over in the court. It was not until dawn that Zhao Gao hurried back to the palace.

Three months later, in Fusu's hotel in Shangjun.

Fusu and Meng Tian sat opposite each other. Below them were the loyal and astute soldiers of the Qin army that Fusu had selected from Meng Tian's army in the past few months. This was the first time they had a real face-to-face meeting with Fusu.

Before meeting Su, Fusu had secretly observed them and selected them from tens of thousands of soldiers. When they learned that Fusu and Meng Tian were going to meet them in person, these thirty people were extremely excited because they felt

Your opportunity has come.

Fusu took a sip of wine and said, "Don't be polite, everyone. Just go ahead and eat. Don't feel restrained just because I'm here."

Everyone hurriedly responded, but how could they eat and drink with peace of mind when something was on their mind? Only one of them was calm and composed. The wine was as dry as a whirlwind, and he had finished all the dishes in front of him in just a while.

.

Fusu glanced at the man, showed admiration, and asked Meng Tian: "Is this man a member of Baihu under your command?"

Meng Tian said: "Yes, he is a warrior named Wu Lin who has killed countless enemies and accumulated merits for hundreds of households."

"It seems that he is very suitable to be the leader of these people. Not only is his official position higher than them, but he is also unafraid of authority."

"The eldest prince really has a keen eye for talent. But you never told me what you were going to do with this group of people."

"There is a saying in Sun Tzu's Art of War: Know yourself and the enemy, and you can fight a hundred battles without danger. Now that we are outside, it is impossible to know what is going on in Xianyang. In this way, we cannot prepare early, so I plan to send them to Xianyang to deliver the news for me."

"They went to Xianyang to deliver the news? But after they got the news, even after they got the news, it might be too late to rush back to report it."

Fusu said confidently: "General, have you forgotten that in addition to training your troops and selecting these people a few days ago, I also asked you to find someone to help me build a few cages on the way from here to Xianyang? This is me

A method used to convey information.”

"What is it?" Meng Tian couldn't help but become curious.

"That is a kind of bird called a pigeon. It is a kind of bird that will fly back to its home no matter how far it is. As long as a pigeon is arranged within a certain distance, the information from here to Xianyang can be sent quickly.

It's much faster than a horse-drawn report." Fusu understands the importance of the immediacy of information to decision-making. When he thinks of the transmission of information, the first thing that pops into his mind is flying pigeons to deliver letters. These days

In the past few months, he ordered people to make dozens of attempts, and he had already grasped the flight distance of the pigeons. Then he ordered people to build some small hidden buildings on the road to Xianyang to send and receive pigeons. The reason why he did this

In addition to wanting to quickly obtain information about Xianyang, the main reason was to know the whereabouts of Qin Shihuang. These days, he tried desperately to recall the history he remembered, and thus remembered that Qin Shihuang died in a sand dune during his eastern tour.

So he wanted to know when Qin Shihuang would make his eastward tour so that he could be prepared. Of course, he would not tell anyone this, otherwise some people would think that he was a lunatic.

"I called you here today because I have an extremely important matter for you to handle." Seeing that they had finished eating, Meng Tian said to them, "It is to go to Xianyang City to find out the important events there, especially about Prince Fusu.

"

The sergeants obviously had great trust in Meng Tian, ​​and they left without any doubts after listening to his words. Fusu kept the man from Baihu named Wu Lin behind and told him some things about the pigeons and asked him to pay attention at the same time.

Regarding Qin Shihuang's behavior. Although it was impossible for him to know Qin Shihuang's true behavior, he could still quickly learn about such a big event as the Eastern Tour.

Everything begins to develop in the direction of Fusu's arrangement...
