Qin Shi Huang couldn't understand that his sons, one or two, were all angry with themselves?

"What do you say? Say it again!? ”

In the dormitory, Qin Shi Huang angrily pointed at Gongzi Gao, who was secretly summoned into the palace by him, and Gongzi Gao had fallen to the ground, his head bowed to the ground, and repeated in a low voice what he had just said.

"The sons have no talent and no virtue, and they are afraid of ruining the state affairs, and they dare not ...... for their father's emperor."

Gongzi Gao is the second son of Qin Shi Huang, twenty-seven years old this year, and is the strongest of the sons.

Not only that, in the past twenty years, although Gongzi Gao was not as high as Fusu and not as favored as Hu Hai, he was also filial and filial, harmonious with his brothers, and loved his wife.

He had never read poetry or books, but he had a fairly firm grasp of the law, and after the peasant family moved to Guanzhong, he became a disciple under his disciple. In the garden outside the home all day long, tending with crops, cooking vegetables and fruits, and even with the farmer Ye Lao, he successfully planted the "grapes" from the Western Regions on the land of the Central Plains, which is also a small and virtuous name.

What's more, Gongzi Gao's wife is the daughter of the right prime minister Feng Quji, and he can at least get the support of the Feng family......

Because of this, after Fusu was already out, Qin Shi Huang thought for a long time, thinking that the past should not be forgotten, and the future was the teacher, so he decided to put a double insurance for this trip without knowing the return date, so he secretly ordered Gongzi Gao to enter the palace and wanted him to stay in the prison country.

Although it was not explicitly stated that Gongzi Gao would be appointed as the heir, the ancients said: "The king walks, the prince lives, and the country is also supervised!" "Qin Shi Huang's meaning is very clear.

But what the emperor didn't expect was that Gongzi Gao actually refused this honor!

It was not a fake push, but a real refusal, and his expression was panicked, as if Qin Shi Huang wanted to take him to the execution ground.

"Why?"

Qin Shi Huang, who was obsessed with power and enthusiastic, was puzzled, and thought that each of his sons was staring at this position, but he didn't expect an anomaly

Gongzi Gao said: "My father loves "Han Feizi", you should remember what he said, 'Powerful people pity the king', right?" ”

The so-called "bad" refers to the leper, who is regarded as a terminal disease, how can the miserable man pity the king in turn?

Qin Shi Huang knew why, he was silent, and Gongzi Gao continued.

"Although this is disrespectful, Erchen believes that there is no false proverb in ancient times, and it must be ignored."

Gongzi Gao was fond of this sentence and said: "This is really for those monarchs who were robbed and killed. If the monarch does not have the skill to control his courtiers, then even if he is old and has good qualifications, the ministers will still gain the power of the monarch, monopolize political affairs, hold great power, use the public for personal gain, and even kill the eldest king, and support the young and cowardly new king, abolish the eldest son who should succeed to the throne, and support those who should not succeed to the throne......"

This remark seemed to be satirizing the Fusu incident, which made Qin Shi Huang very uncomfortable, but what Gongzi Gao said was indeed the truth.

"Although the sons have little reading, they have also heard many similar things, in the Spring and Autumn Period, the State of Chu ordered Prince Yin to ask Zheng Guo, and he had not yet left the country, and when he heard that the King of Chu was sick, he immediately rushed back to the palace to inquire about his condition, but he took advantage of the moment of shielding the left and right, and strangled the King of Chu to death with his tassel and established himself as the king."

"Cui Zhu, the doctor of Qi State, his wife committed adultery with Qi Zhuang Gong, Cui Zhu took advantage of Qi Zhuang Gong to come again, led his retainers to attack it, Zhuang Gong asked to divide Qi with Cui Zhu, Cui Zhu did not agree; Zhuang Gong asked to commit suicide with a sword in the temple, but Cui Shu refused to listen. Zhuang Gong then escaped over the wall, was shot in the thigh by an arrow, fell to the ground, and was pecked into meat by Changge, and then Cui Shu supported Zhuang Gong's brother Qi Jinggong. ”

"In the fourth year of the Huai Gong of the Qin State, Shu Changchao and the ministers surrounded the Huai Gong, and the Huai Gong committed suicide. Prince Huai said Zhaozi, flea died, the minister is the son of Prince Zhaozi, is for the Linggong, the chief controls the government, Qin III is restless......"

"As for Li Dui's reign in the Zhao State, he surrounded the father of Zhao for hundreds of days and starved him to death; Nao Ya was appointed in the Qi State, so he pulled the tendons of the King of Qi, hung him on the beam of the temple, and died overnight, which happened in the past hundred years. ”

After that, Gongzi Gao bowed again: "So although the body of the powerful man is full of abscesses and rotten scars, compared to those kings who were robbed and killed, strangled their necks and shot their strands, and starved to death, their inner fears and physical pain are probably no less than those of the powerful people, isn't it worth being sad and pitiful?" So there is some truth to this proverb......"

Gongzi Gao is indeed a smart man, and it is not in vain that Qin Shi Huang thought of him first.

But he is also a very self-aware person!

After this long foreshadowing, Gongzi Gao carefully confided in his heart.

"The merits, talents, and fame of the sons and daughters are not as good as those of the brother Fusu, and the wisdom of the sons and daughters is not as good as the favor of the father and the emperor, even if they are in prison of the country, I am afraid that the brothers and the ministers will not be satisfied, not only will they not be able to rectify the dynasty, but they will also suffer robbery and murder in the long run, so that people will pity me......"

Qin Shi Huang laughed angrily: "Are you afraid that you will not be able to restrain your ministers and brothers, resulting in being robbed and killed?" Don't you know that with power, you can speak your word and follow the law, and kill whoever you want! Whoever wants to die, he will die! Wouldn't it be enough to get rid of all those who are threatening? ”

"The son is not as good as his father, but I am afraid that I don't have this ability, let alone that perseverance."

Gongzi Gao still resolutely refused.

Qin Shi Huang stiffened his face: "But don't you know, Qin Luli said that those who are punished and those who are not punished are invited to die!" Reward and please die to those who don't! Let you be the prison country, this is a great reward I have given you, and I can't refuse you! Otherwise, I can give you an edict to die right now! ”

Even though he was forced to die, Gongzi Gao still didn't change his mind, and he didn't stop laughing:

"The sons are afraid of death, but they are even more afraid that their wives and children will be implicated, so they would rather be given death and burial by their father and the emperor, rather than be killed by their fathers because they are not intelligent, and do wrong things in the future, and be like the monarchs such as Qi Zhuanggong, they will be intercepted and killed, and the whole family will die, or like the emperor's brother Fusu, he will become a lost dog, and his wife will be separate......d."

Gongzi Gao and Fusu have a good relationship, Fusu's matter brought him a huge shock, and the things hurt him, Gongzi Gao only felt that his father wanted to supervise the country by himself, just like pushing himself to the fire!

What he has to do, but the heir of Qin Shi Huangdi, in this world, is there a more difficult errand to do?

If you are sitting on pins and needles, you can't say, he is the next Fusu.

Gongzi Gao understands very well that he can also achieve some achievements in farming, as for the power of governing the country, he never thought about it in the past, and now he doesn't know anything, and he gets the important task in a hurry, once the mountain collapses, he is not even confident that he can succeed to the throne smoothly!

When it comes to Fusu, Qin Shi Huang was a little tired and gave his son to death for no reason? Even he couldn't do such a thing.

"Gao, in your opinion, this Kyushu world, the great imperial power, but not as important as enjoying yourself with your wife and son?"

The more he spoke, the angrier he became:

"Would you rather be a crow and guard a rotting rat than be a yuānchú, climb the sycamore, eat and practice food, drink the liquor spring, and finally turn into a bird and go up to 90,000 miles? Look at the scenery from the heights and feel the supremacy that tramples the world under your feet? ”

"It's the son's short ambition that disappointed his father, and asked his father to choose another brother. The retainer would rather go to the countryside and have nothing to do with the imperial power! ”

This is the final attitude of Childe Gao.

"Yes, yes! It seems that you really can't afford the heavy responsibility of this prison country! ”

Qin Shi Huang coughed again.

"In this case, then I will demote you to a concubine, go to Yongdu, and guard the ancestral tomb!"

He picked up the slip on the desk and smashed it at Gongzi Gao!

"The rotten wood that can't be sculpted, the mud that can't support the wall, you go to Weishui, go to Zhouyuan, be an old farmer, cultivate your land, grow your vegetables, and carry dung buckets with your wives and concubines, and live happily!"

……

Covering his smashed head, Gongzi left Xianyang Palace in embarrassment.

It's still late at night, this time it's a secret summons, and no one should know about his entry into the palace.

When he boarded the car, Gongzi Gao wiped the blood from his forehead and said secretly in his heart: "My father said that it is a great reward to supervise the country, and even to succeed the crown prince to the throne, but I thought otherwise, ......"

Throughout the ages, has there been a more powerful monarch than Qin Shi Huang? But even though he is he, who has succeeded to the throne for decades, behind the mountain call, there is only a lonely figure and a heart that is gradually aging......

Even though there are thousands of beauties and fandels from six countries, they can't rest assured that any woman will accompany them through the long night.

There is no one who is not afraid of Qin Shi Huangdi, no one is not afraid of him, even if it is a descendant, they are trembling.

But there is no one who loves him anymore......

People all over the world are looking forward to the emperor's death.

Lonely people, especially lonely people who are in danger, Gongzi Gao doesn't want to do it!

The blood continued to flow down from the cracks in his hands, dripping onto the side of the car, splattering onto the stone bricks, and quickly condensing into ice......

Here, it's so cold, much colder than outside the palace.

"Father is wrong."

Turning his head and looking at the gloomy huge palace room, Gongzi Gao had palpitations.

"The throne is not glory, not a reward, but a curse! It is a shackle that no matter who wears it, it will never break free! ”
