Chapter 358 Conspiracy in the Shadows

The news that Maodun was killed in Xianyang by Emperor Ying Gao of the Qin Dynasty had not dispersed much. Even Fusu, who was far away in Nanhai County, knew about this and specially informed the tribes of Nanyue for a while, so that they could also understand some of the major events that had happened in the Qin Dynasty.

Obviously, the tribes in Nanyue have heard of the strength of the Huns. Even big brothers like the Huns were broken into the hands of the Qin Dynasty. Of course, there was nothing to be proud of like a scattered small tribe like Nanyue. Moreover, since Zhao Tuo, who had contacted them for a lot of contact with them, left Nanyue and was sent back to Xianyang by Fusuda, Fusu has completely taken charge of the tribes in Nanyue himself.

Moreover, Fusu did not do a one-size-fits-all approach. Fusu's policies are still very gentle about these tribes that were not Qin. As long as your army does not exceed a certain number and then pays tribute to the Qin Dynasty for many years, Fusu will not care about your affairs on your territory.

Of course, there are always some who are a little stubborn, but unfortunately, they are all wiped out by the soldiers under Fusu. By the time Maodun was sentenced, at least in Nanhai County, Fusu had achieved considerable results, and almost no one dared to oppose the rule of the Qin Dynasty on them.

Fusu's next goal has been aimed at Guilin County and Xiang County, which are still relatively chaotic next to Nanhai County. When he was chasing the survivors under Liu Bang, Fusu had already sent people to lead his army to explore the way. The day to really take those two places was not far for Fusu. His younger brother came to such a big fight in the north. Fusu knew that his brother, who was the elder brother, could not always be so calm, right?

However, when Nanhai County was just as popular as the Qin Dynasty, some not very good sounds appeared in Xianyang City, and these sounds appeared extremely hidden.

The cause of this incident was initiated by the family of the Jianyi Doctor who had not gotten any good endings before Lu Jia. The position of the Jianyi Doctor was originally controlled by the people in their family for many years. In order to maintain this position, they visited Mr. Feng Quji, which was considered to have invested a lot and received very valuable gifts.

But the result they saw was that the gift was given out, and Mr. Feng Quji agreed to do the work. However, no one in the family had ever been there. They all heard that Mr. Feng Quji did as they asked him when they went to find him before. However, because the emperor and prince of Daqin were not as good as the emperor, this led to the later tragedy of the counselor.

Originally, their family had already planned to endure it, but they couldn't resist their thighs, right? They were the emperor of the Qin Dynasty, you were just a nobleman in the imperial city. Isn't it a matter of minutes to kill you?

But I don’t know when this family can always hear legends that the position of this counselor in their family was deliberately hacked by Ying Gao. Even if there was no such thing, he had to find something else to criticize him. The reason was that Ying Gao had long been dissatisfied with the nobles of the old Qin people. Sooner or later, they would erase all the old Qin nobles from Xianyang City, but now they are doing it step by step.

The patriarch of this family was really furious when he heard this statement. It was unbearable. This old guy also let him be over 60 years old. Seeing that the foundation he created in Xianyang City, the capital of the Great Qin, was about to be eaten away by the Emperor of the Great Qin, he was really anxious. He thought that when Emperor First Emperor was young, he had to call me "Brother, what kind of onion are you, a little baby?"

If such an idea is not available, everything will be easy to say. Once it appears, it will be really difficult to control. The patriarch has almost just come up with such an idea. One of the former disciples from South Korea in the family directly made a bold statement, that is, based on his understanding in Xianyang City, the nobles who have opinions about the current Emperor Ying Gao of Qin are not only their family, but have already had a considerable number. However, everyone is now unwilling to show it due to Ying Gao's pressure.

According to the Korean disciple, the nobles in the Qin Dynasty now need a leader to take them to restore their position in the Qin Empire. Otherwise, the word aristocrat would be gone in the Qin Empire in two or three years.

When the patriarch thought about it, he thought to himself that I was over 60 years old anyway, what else am I afraid of? I’ll just finish it?

So, the old guy secretly began to connect left and right in Xianyang City, connecting many nobles in the court who were punished by the counselor Lu Jia and Ying Gao because of the new policy, and secretly formed an alliance against Ying Gao.

This incident came very suddenly, with almost no signs, and there were always their own circles between the nobles. Ying Gao and his confidants seemed to be disdainful to enter such circles. In addition, these people deliberately avoided families like Feng Quji and Meng Yi, which had a close relationship with Ying Gao or had not been damaged in the Qin Dynasty, so they were thinking about how to implement the ideas proposed by Lu Jia in the Qin Dynasty. Ying Gao, who had not noticed the changes in the Qin Dynasty's noble circle at all.

Under the leadership of the Korean disciple, the noble old man finally chose the families with all the radical attitudes towards Ying Gao, and then he came forward.

After discussions by these families who seemed to be seriously injured in Ying Gao's new policy, they discovered a very terrifying problem, that is, they were making trouble below, and Ying Gao was of no use for someone like Ying Gao who was not afraid of being afraid of his relatives. In the end, they could only let Ying Gao punish them more severely.

In other words, they concluded that as long as Ying Gao was still sitting in the position of Emperor Qin, then these nobles would almost never have a chance to stand out.

They did this summary correctly, but one thing they were wrong, that is, when they were sitting here and making a lot of noise against Ying Gao, their awe for the Emperor of Qin began to dissipate little by little. All they could think of was how their family could not be ruined, and how to enjoy what they felt they should always enjoy as before.

In this way, it is inevitable that Ying Gao gradually came to the opposition between them, the old Qin nobles. For Ying Gao, they successfully completed the gorgeous transformation from awe to fear and then to hatred. In this way, Ying Gao became a demon-like figure in their hearts, and the usual way to deal with the demons is of course to come out, that is, to get rid of him.

And during the time when all this happened, our emperor, who devoted himself to the reform of the Qin Dynasty, was still deeply hidden in the dark.

In fact, it is not Ying Gao's fault. His current status in the Qin Dynasty is at its peak. Almost all the people in the world have been beaten down by him. If there is nothing left, Ying Gao is really bragging, but the rest are all those he is not willing to fight for the time being. For example, a player like Yelang Kingdom who was so scared that he had been so scared that he hadn't even bothered to destroy him before he could meet.

So as far as the current situation is concerned, Ying Gao felt that the people in the territory of Daqin had only two feelings for him, either respecting him or fearing him, but he never expected that there were people who hated him in his imperial city, and there were not one or two.

In order to allow Lu Jia to better introduce his theory to the court of Daqin, Ying Gao knew that it would definitely not work with such a Lu Jia alone. So Ying Gao actually discussed with Xiao He, Lu Jia and others. He decided to summon a group of representative figures from various schools that taught in Xianyang City and the surrounding areas to come to the Xianyang Palace to talk about his school in front of Ying Gao.

Then Ying Gao stayed a group based on the openness of these people's thoughts, letting them discuss together and put forward Lu Jia's views.

The purpose of this is to prevent people from other schools from standing up after the ideas of many schools are proposed. Through Ying Gao's arrangement, if you want to stand up before you want to bombard, there are also your comrades here. In this way, the response caused by this idea must be much more friendly, right?

Ying Gao and his friends' idea was really quite reliable, and it was not difficult to implement it. Through the officials in this county, this idea was directly passed to the ears of those lecturers from various schools.

Because of Lu Jia's previous lessons, those who gave lectures had already held their breath. All the smarter cultural people had already seen it. What was Ying Gao doing? Isn't this just pulling some truly knowledgeable people into the court of Daqin? They all believed that Lu Jia was the first, but he would definitely not be the last one.

Sure enough, isn’t this opportunity here now? If you can produce a Lu Jia in Confucianism, our Legalism is not bad, our Mohism is not bad, and our Taoism is not bad...

This incident spread quickly around Xianyang City, because Ying Gao gave a total of twenty days of registration time. Even many people from other counties and counties not far away around Xianyang were ready to rush to Xianyang to try their skills. Not to mention anything else, what if their opinions and knowledge were attracted by the Emperor of the Qin Dynasty, although they could not be such a great official position as a doctor, as long as they could stand in the court of the Qin Dynasty, wouldn’t it be a very great honor?

Just when many people were actively rushing to Xianyang and not preparing to attend this grand event of intellectuals of this era, a very unexpected conversation occurred in a mansion in the center of Xianyang City.

Outside the study of this mansion, there were all soldiers holding spears. Inside the house were several figures who would have caused a lot of reaction if they appeared together in Xianyang City. They were the heads of several noble families of the Great Qin Dynasty. Of course, there was also the Korean guest minister who had been with his head for a long time and gradually gained his trust.

"You guys can tell that before, I was struggling with the young master Gao's attack on me, but I had no choice but to let him slaughter. But today, there is a huge opportunity before us. If we can seize this opportunity, we can change the unfavorable situation at this time!"

The one who finished speaking was the patriarch of the Jianyi Doctor clan who was dealt with by Ying Gao. Almost all the older men were older than him. Of course, if it weren't for the elders of the three dynasties, they wouldn't have the courage to sit here and talk about such things.

"Is the opportunity you mentioned is the incident of the sensational Emperor of the Qin Dynasty recruiting people from all schools to gather in the Xianyang Palace to give lectures?"

Seeing someone asking, the clan leader who had spoken before gave a wink to the Korean guest sitting beside him. The Korean guest immediately saluted the Qin nobles around him, then stood up, a hint of cruelty appeared in his eyes, and finally spoke.

"You guys can you tell that if the lectures held by the young master Gao in the Xianyang Palace of the Great Qin this time were successfully held, there would be countless people like Lu Jia pouring into the court of our Great Qin. At that time, the people in the family of the people would have many opportunities to speak in the court of the Great Qin. How many people would be left in the old Qin aristocrats in the Yangyang old Qin aristocrats and the people in the Great Qin aristocrats, and how many old Qin aristocrats would be tragically killed by the young master Gao?"

His words were real heart-killing words. After hearing this, the old guys in front of him frowned deeply. These words were not allowed to be believed or questioned.

Because last time, Lu Jia was the only one who mixed up the Qin Dynasty's court, they still empathized with it at this time. This time, this time, they had reason to believe that what the Korean said was definitely a very likely thing.
