Bai Zheng smiled wryly, and shook his head: "Wrong, you are wrong, eldest son."
"Wrong?" Fusu was puzzled, and said, "Why is there a mistake?"
Bai Zhengdao: "Mr. Zhen's purpose of going south to inspect this time is not at all for inspecting farming, let alone for the construction of our Great Qin's sea ships, but for another purpose."
"Another purpose?" Fusu frowned, confused.
"Yes, if I'm not mistaken, Lord Zhen went south this time to meet Hu Hai secretly!" Bai Zheng said with righteous indignation.
"What secret meeting Brother Hai!" Fu Su was greatly surprised.
Bai Zheng nodded: "That's right, the eldest son doesn't know that Hu Hai is actually in Dongyang County, the fiefdom of Lord Zhen, and the governor of any county. And this time Lord Zhen went to Dongyang County in Jiangsu Province. "
"Brother Hai is serving as the governor of Dongyang County? This...how is this possible!"
This incident was so unexpected and unbelievable that Fusu was completely stunned.
To be honest, he even felt that this news was almost absurd and ridiculous.
The reason why Hu Hai was expelled from the palace was originally due to Li Yang's credit. How could he still let Hu Hai serve as the governor of Dongyang County? It doesn't make sense.
Obviously, this is an unbelievable thing, and Fusu couldn't understand it even after thinking about it. How can this matter make any sense?
Fusu's doubts were naturally expected by Bai Zheng, so he immediately said: "It's understandable that the eldest son didn't believe it. When the old man heard the news, he couldn't believe it. According to common sense, it really doesn't make sense. But... this matter is absolutely true."
Seeing that Baizheng was so confident, Fusu couldn't help being startled, and said seriously, "Why are you so sure?"
Shi Hechi pointed behind Bai Zhengchao, and said, "This man's name is Shi Hechi, and he was the former governor of Dongyang County. However, after Wang Youxian was reappointed by Zhen Guojun and promoted to governor of Jiangsu, Shi Hechi was dismissed by Wang Youxian. The official position of Dongyang County Sheriff. The person who will succeed him as Dongyang County Sheriff is Hu Hai!"
"Young Master, I have indeed seen it with my own eyes. The person who will take over the position of the governor of Dongyang County is Mr. Hai." At this time, Shi Hechi hurriedly took a step forward and replied seriously.
Fu Su stared at this man called shit delicious, and asked, "How can you be so sure it's him?"
Shi Hechi said: "I used to be an official in Xianyang for five years, and I remember seeing Mr. Hai many times, so I won't admit my mistake."
"Why did Brother Hai serve as the sheriff in Dongyang County? No one told Gu, not even Gongsun Jing." Fusu was still puzzled.
Although Daqin has no less than a hundred county guards, as a county guard, he is still an important official of the court. If Hu Hai is the county guard, it is impossible for Gongsun Jing, who is the chief official, to know.
Bai Zheng seemed to understand Fusu's doubts, so he said, "Young Master, do you know what Hu Hai's name is now?"
"You mean...he changed his name and surname?" Fu Su was taken aback.
Bai Zheng nodded: "That's right, his current name is Qin Hai!"
"Qin Hai?"
Fusu frowned, and said to himself: "Qin Hai, Mr. Hai of the Qin Kingdom... Could it be... really him!"
At this moment, Fusu's brows were all wrinkled, as if slightly angry.
What made him angry was not Hu Hai being the governor of Dongyang County, but Hu Hai being the governor of Dongyang County. Li Yang never told him such an important matter.
In other words, Li Yang deliberately concealed him from the beginning to the end.
The Taifu, whom he trusted without reservation, told him everything in his heart, but in the end... the Taifu was not as trustworthy as he imagined, which made Fusu suddenly feel inexplicable. A feeling of being hurt.
Lost, angry, sad...
More importantly, why did Taifu do this?
Why did he hide this from himself?
Why did he secretly arrange Brother Hai to be the sheriff of his fief?He even changed his name and surname specially for this reason, so as not to let the officials know the true identity of Brother Hai?
Moreover, Brother Hai's relegation to a commoner was originally due to the Tai Tuo's credit. It stands to reason that Brother Hai and him are not deadly enemies, so there must be some hatred, right?But the result is...not only did the two seem to have no hatred, but Brother Hai became the sheriff of his fiefdom.This seems to be out of the ordinary.....
All of this made Fusu feel more and more uneasy when he thought about it, and for a while, he was not feeling well.
At this time, Shi Hechi said: "Just when the officials were leaving, I heard that Mr. Zhen took a boat from Shandong to the south, and he was going to land in Jiangsu to go to Dongyang County for inspection."
Bai Zheng also immediately said: "Hmph, the inspection is just a cover, the secret meeting with Hu Hai is the real thing."
Fu Su hurriedly asked: "Why did the Taifu want to meet Brother Hai secretly?"
Bai Zhengdao: "Young Master, you...you are really confused! What else can the Lord of the Town secretly meet with Hu Hai for? It must be to compete for the position of Prince Daqin!"
"impossible!"
Fusu said absolutely, but he felt a little flustered in his heart, or he was not very firm.
Bai Zhengdao: "Young Master, you really trust Lord Zhen too much. He arranged Hu Hai to Dongyang County without telling you. You really can't see what he has in mind?"
Fu Su sneered and said: "Old Bai, don't you forget that Brother Hai's expulsion is due to the Grand Tutor's credit. If the Grand Tutor wanted to make Brother Hai the crown prince, it would have been impossible to do so in the first place."
But Bai Zheng also said with a smile: "Young Master, the world is always changing, whether it is world affairs or people, they are always changing. Yesterday, Lord Zhen could help you, and tomorrow, he can also help Hu Hai. You have to know Although Hu Hai was expelled, His Majesty did not formally appoint you as the crown prince. What's more, His Majesty is not in the country now, and all the people in the court are his henchmen. Li Si is in the inner court, Xiao He is the order of Xianyang, and Zhou Bo is in charge of Lantian Daying. Although I dare not say that Li Yang controls the entire Great Qin Kingdom, it can be said that the entire Xianyang City is completely under his control."
Hearing this, Fu Su's face became serious.
Seeing this, Bai Zheng was overjoyed, and said again: "To say something disrespectful, although you are called to supervise the country, eldest son, you have no real power, and the real power is in the hands of Lord Zhen. If Lord Zhen really wants to help Hu Hai , it can be said to be a piece of cake.”
Fusu's heart tightened, but he still didn't want to believe that such a thing would happen.In other words, he didn't believe that Li Yang would do such a thing.
So he said: "Teacher would not do such a thing."
"Hahaha!"
Hearing this, Baizheng raised his head and laughed three times, then his face changed, and he asked seriously: "The eldest son thinks that Li Yang will not do such a thing, because he thinks that doing such a thing is not for him. No reason?"
Fusu nodded.
Indeed, he couldn't think of any reason why Li Yang would do such an unimaginable thing.
What is this called?
This is chaos!
Hu Hai has been demoted to a commoner, without his father's will, how could he help Hu Hai seize power and disrupt the country.
Even if he let Hu Hai supervise the country, it doesn't mean that Hu Hai is the prince, because who is the prince depends on his father's decision.
What's more, Tai Tuo helped Hu Hai, which didn't do him any good.
Can Hu Hai trust him unreservedly like himself?
Can Hu Hai unreservedly support his New Deal like himself?
It can be said that, no matter from which aspect, Taifu has no reason to change his flag.
