Chapter 352: Fan Sui's Evil Star? Savior? (3rd Update)
Xianyang, Yinghou Mansion.
Fan Sui was in a very bad mood.
Very bad.
Although it has only been a few days since he returned to Xianyang, the rumors of disturbance in the entire Xianyang City have inevitably reached Fan Sui's ears.
What made Fan Sui very angry was that most of the rumors believed that if Fan Sui hadn't instigated Qin Wangji to launch this battle against Chu, then the Qin State would not have been able to defeat at all!
Hell, don't these stupid things know that Fan Sui didn't want to fight this battle from beginning to end?
Don't these stupid guys know that Fan Sui even did not hesitate to protect his sworn enemy Bai Qi as the main general for the sake of this battle?
In fact, in this battle, Fan Sui felt that his opinions were correct most of the time.
But it was these correct opinions that were completely ignored by Qin Wangji and most of the people in the Qin State!
If this is just a few rumors, then that's fine, after all, pink eye is everywhere and never ends.
Since Fan Sui became the prime minister, the rumors attacking Fan Sui have never stopped.
Fan Sui's heart is very clear that the reason why these rumors are rumors and have not become reality is actually very simple, that is, Qin Wangji is unwilling to let these rumors become reality.
In the Qin State, as long as Qin Wangji is unwilling to happen, it will definitely not happen!
Therefore, although Fan Sui's phase has not been known to attract many coveters, due to the protection of Qin Wangji, this position has always been as stable as Mount Tai.
But now it's different.
Ever since Qin Wangji, who had returned from that day, had an extremely rare scolding of Fan Sui on the spot, Fan Sui had a feeling.
I may be deposed.
Although it is said that since the defeat of Changping, Fan Sui's phase has not been stable, but it was not until that day that Fan Sui really had a sense of precarious crisis.
What made Fan Sui even more uneasy was that during the few days of returning from Luoyi to Xianyang, Qin Wangji didn't even summon Fan Sui once, nor did he say even a word to Fan Sui!
All of this deepened Fan Sui's sense of crisis.
In order to survive, Fan Sui actually did not make any efforts.
After entering the palace several times to ask to see Qin Wangji and being refused, Fan Sui set his sights on Zhao Zhu, the prince of Qin.
As the crown prince, An Guojun has a strong influence in the heart of Qin State, especially Qin Wangji, and if Zhao Zhuken helps persuade Qin Wangji, this matter is likely to turn around.
But what made Fan Sui extremely angry was that An Guojun Zhao Zhu just said that he was sick at this moment and refused all visits.
Needless to say, the people who were rejected certainly included Fan Sui.
So the question is, apart from An Guojun, is there anyone in the Qin State who can keep Fan Sui's phase in front of Qin Wangji?
The answer is no.
Fan Sui now felt as if he was a beast trapped in a cage, obviously seeing the approaching Sen Leng knife light and the footsteps of the god of death in the dark night, but he was helpless about what was about to happen.
Escape? Shang Ying is a lesson from the past, under the strict system of the Qin State that even staying in an inn must be presented to the messenger, it is almost impossible to escape.
But if you don't escape, wouldn't staying in Xianyang be no different from waiting for death?
At this time, Fan Sui actually heard such a news from the mouth of his henchman.
"There is a Yan person in Xianyang City who said that his guest name is Cai Ze, and he once threatened in front of everyone that if he can be summoned by the king, the king will definitely dismiss Fan Jun and order Cai Ze to be the prime minister!"
Fan Sui felt very, very, very uncomfortable when he heard this.
Now even a little-known lobbyist from Yan Kingdom can ride on my Fan Sui's head to and pee, and use my Fan Sui's name to brush up his reputation?
How can this be endured?
No!
So Fan Sui summoned Cai Ze.
As the prime minister of the Qin State, it is still very simple to find someone in Xianyang City.
After seeing Cai Ze, the corners of Fan Sui's mouth first showed a smile, and then his face immediately became more gloomy.
It's such an ugly monster who also wants to step on my top position?
Cai Ze came to Fan Sui with a big grin, and made a gesture to Fan Sui: "Yan Cai Ze, I've seen Ying." β
Fan Sui was suddenly furious.
This Cai Ze is just a man of cloth, I am a dignified minister of the Great Qin Empire, and I was even named a candidate by the king, you actually didn't give a big gift in front of me, just made a gesture?
Fan Sui stared at Cai Ze viciously, and his tone when he spoke was a little colder than the cold ice of winter: "I have heard from people that you want to replace me as the prime minister of the Qin State, but is there such a thing?" β
Cai Ze nodded unhurriedly and said, "Response, there is indeed such a thing." β
Fan Sui sneered: "How can you dare to say such a wild word!" β
Cai Ze faced Fan Sui's questioning, and there was no panic on his face, but said with a smile: "Should you know the matter of Wengen, Shang Jun, and Wu Qi?" In my opinion, we should soon follow in the footsteps of these three people! β
Wen, the doctor of the Yue Kingdom, once helped the Yue Wang Gou practice to lie down and taste the courage, and finally defeated Wu Wangfu to restore the country successfully. But in the end, because of his high merits, he was jealous of Gou Jian, and ended up committing suicide with a sword.
Shang Jun, that is, the famous Shang Ying. Shang Ying presided over a change that completely changed the fate of the Qin state, but after the death of Qin Xiaogong, he was torn apart by King Qin Huiwen, and there was no body left.
Wu Qi, a Wei military strategist, reformer, famous, once invincible Wei Wushu was founded by Wu Qi, under the leadership of Wu Qi, Wei captured Qin's Hexi land, compressed Qin's territory to the extreme, and almost brought Qin to the brink of annihilation.
After the death of Marquis Wen of Wei, Wu Qi was deposed, and then fled to the state of Chu and was appointed as Ling Yin by the king of Chu Mourning, and carried out changes in the state of Chu, so that the state of Chu quickly became strong, and defeated the old club Wei State one after another, so that the Wei State began to slide from the peak.
But Wu Qi's change offended the old nobles of Chu, and after the death of King Chu Mourning, Wu Qi was shot by the old nobles on the corpse of King Chu Mourning.
Although these three guys have experienced different things, they can be summed up in one word - not a good death.
Now Cai Ze uses the fate of these three people to describe Fan Sui, that is, he points out that Fan Sui will not die well in the future.
Therefore, after hearing this, Fan Sui was naturally furious, and retorted: "Cai Ze, how ridiculous your words are! If these three sons are all people who are safe and secure, who establish the people, who expand the territory, and who are loyal to the king. The righteousness is also the same, and the festival of loyalty is also. Therefore, it is difficult for a gentleman to die with righteousness, and he regards death as home; It is better to be humiliated than to be honored. Soldiers are born to kill themselves to become famous, although righteousness is located, although death has nothing to hate. What is indispensable? β
To put it simply, these three people are considered to be loyal and righteous people by the world when they die, so if I, Fan Sui, can die in the name of loyalty like them, then why not?
Fan Sui felt that after his righteous and awe-inspiring words came out, this Cai Ze should close his mouth and then get out of this door, right?
However, what Fan Sui didn't expect was that Cai Ze not only did not feel any frustration after hearing Fan Sui's words, but laughed sneeringly, with an extremely mocking expression on his face.
After laughing for a while, Cai Ze spoke: "This is not the case." Ze dared to ask Ying, if it was based on the merits of the Qin State, how would Ying Hou compare to Wu Anjun? β
Fan Sui was silent for a moment, and finally shook his head: "My merits are far inferior to Wu Anjun's." β
Fan Sui's words are really not modest.
You must know that since Bai Qi came to prominence, he has won a total of Hedong County, Sanchuan County, Nanyang County, Nan County and half of Hanoi County for Qin, expanding the territory of Qin State to twice the original size.
Not to mention Fan Sui's credit, that is, from the Qin State to the present, no one can compare with Bai Qi's credit.
Cai Ze continued: "With Wu Anjun's great achievements, what is the situation now? β
Fan Sui opened his mouth and was speechless for a long time.
Cai Ze said again: "With Wu Anjun's great merits, once King Qin doesn't like it, he will still fall into the current situation. So I would like to ask if there is a day when the King of Qin does not like to wait, what will happen to the waiting? β
"Enough!" Fan Sui suddenly slapped the table in front of him and shouted, "No need to say it again!" β
However, Cai Ze's words continued: "Wait, I have made it clear so far, why don't I understand it yet? If this is the case, it will be self-defeating! β
Cai Ze's words pierced Fan Sui's heart like a knife, making Fan Sui's whole life painful, and he felt breathless.
Could it be that I Fan Sui is a wise man, but in the end I can only end up in a dead end?
Just when Fan Sui was about to fall into despair, he suddenly saw the expression on Cai Ze's face that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.
The next moment, Fan Sui suddenly realized.
This Xiangbang of the Qin State suddenly stood up and bowed deeply to Cai Ze, who was just a white cloth in front of him.
"Please save me, sir!"
It was precisely because he lowered his head that Fan Sui didn't see the scheming smile on Cai Ze's face when he lowered his head.
In fact, even if Fan Sui saw it, it might not change anything.
After all, no one knows better than Fan Sui what kind of desperate road Fan Sui is facing at this moment!
As long as there is a chance to get rid of the fate of this dead clan, then even if it is a slim opportunity, Fan Sui will definitely not miss it!
Cai Ze sat there and accepted Fan Sui's salute, and after sitting down, Fan Sui looked at himself with a pleading face, and fully enjoyed this little vanity, and then spoke without hurrying.
"If it is Ze's opinion, this matter is easy."
Fan Sui was overjoyed in his heart, and hurriedly said, "Please also ask Mr. to teach me." β
Cai Ze smiled at Fan Sui and said, "Haven't you heard about Tao Zhugong?" If you follow the example of Tao Zhugong and retreat bravely, you can solve this murderous misfortune. β
"Tao Zhugong?" Fan Sui's heart moved when he heard this.
Tao Zhu Gong Fan Li, and Wen Chong are the right-hand men of Goujian, the king of Yue, and he is a great hero who helped Goujian restore the country.
But unlike the final tragic death of Wen Chong, Fan Li resigned after helping Gou Jian restore the country, and he was in business three times and became rich three times.
But after thinking about it, Fan Sui shook his head again and sighed: "Mr. doesn't know, even if I want to emulate Tao Zhugong's actions at this moment, if there are young people who attack me in front of the king after resigning, I will also be a dead end!" β
Cai Ze shook his head and said: "This is wrong, in Ze's opinion, if you should resign, you will definitely be attacked." But if someone can excuse Ying Hou in front of King Qin, how can Ying Hou be tragically killed? I can't say that I can enjoy the end of my life! β
After Fan Sui heard Cai Ze's words, his body was shocked, and a burst of light suddenly erupted in his eyes, staring at Cai Ze deadly.
Cai Ze's face remained unchanged, and he looked at Fan Sui with a smile.
After a long time, Fan Sui's face suddenly disappeared, and a burst of hearty laughter erupted in the sky.
"Come on, and prepare a banquet, I want to get drunk with Mr. Cai Ze today!"
