Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 184: The shocked ministers, Fusu supports the salt shop? An uneventful morning!
"Is this young man crazy when he scolds Da Qin's servant?"

"Who is this man in a bamboo hat? He prevented the government from sealing the salt shop and scolded the servants for shooting. All these crimes together are enough to put him on death row."

"Which young man is it that is so arrogant and domineering?"

Several ministers had surprised looks on their faces when they heard what the old man said.

They couldn't believe that Chun Yuyue went to Beishi in person and was scolded by the man in a hat.

In their opinion, this man in a bamboo hat was a young master from some house, and they must have known that Chunyu Yue was a servant of the Qin Dynasty.

Scolding Pushe in front of other people is no small matter.

The other ministers around heard a few people's discussion, and there was a hint of surprise on their faces.

They did not expect that such a big event would happen in Beishi, Xianyang City.

Pushe in the court was scolded by others. When this news spread, Chun Yuyue would definitely be laughed at by many people.

Some ministers looked at Chunyu Yue, who was standing there with a gloomy look on his face.

When the old man heard several ministers asking about the identity of the man in the hat, he looked ahead.

He turned to look at the ministers and said, "The man in the hat is not the son of any minister in the court."

"The man in the hat's true identity is Master Fusu, and this salt shop in Bei City is supported by Master Fusu."

The old man looked at several ministers and said Fusu's name.

The ministers around the old man all heard Fusu's name, and there were looks of shock on their faces.

They were all guessing the true identity of the man in the hat, but they didn't expect that the man in the hat was Mr. Fusu.

Everyone's eyes turned to Fusu, who was standing at the front. At this moment, Fusu stood there with a calm expression.

"Mr. Liu, are you telling the truth? Is the man in the hat really Mr. Fusu?"

"This is no small matter. Mr. Liu, you have to make sure this news is true."

"Young Master Fusu supports the salt shop, I always feel it is untrue."

The ministers around the old man had a hint of suspicion on their faces.

They all knew Fusu well. Mr. Fusu rarely had conversations with businessmen, let alone went to Bei City in person to support this salt shop.

They suspected that the news the old man heard were rumors spread from outside.

"Humph!"

"This is about Mr. Fusu, how dare I lie."

"The man in the hat is Mr. Fusu. The people in Bei City can see this clearly."

"Chun Yuyue was also in Beishi at that time. If you don't believe me, you can go and ask Chun Yuyue."

After the old man finished speaking, there was a trace of anger on his face.

Several ministers around him glanced at Chun Yuyue, and asking them to ask Chun Yuyue was just to rub salt into the wound.

Their official positions were not as good as those of Chunyu Yue, so how could they take the initiative to offend Chunyu Yue.

The old man looked at the people around him and continued: "You are also ministers of the DPRK."

"Everyone knows the laws of Da Qin, except Mr. Fusu."

"Who dares to stop the officials, and how can they scold Chunyu Yue, a servant, in front of so many people?"

The ministers around the old man nodded slightly.

They agreed with what the old man said just now, and they prevented the government from seizing it and scolded important officials in the court. This was a serious crime.

Even the sons of ministers in the court did not dare to do this, and only Mr. Fusu dared to do so.

As for whether Mr. Fusu will be punished for this matter, it depends on His Majesty's decision.

The old man glanced at Fusu and Chun Yuyue who were heading towards him, then turned to look at the people around him and said softly:
"Today's morning court will definitely not be that simple. In any case, Mr. Fusu's behavior violated the laws of Qin."

"Chun Yuyue and Fusu no longer have a teacher-student relationship. Chunyu Yue will definitely not give up after suffering such a great humiliation."

"He will definitely report this matter to His Majesty in court this morning."

"As for Chunyu Yue telling His Majesty like this, I couldn't have guessed it."

After the old man finished speaking, there was a look of helplessness on his face.

Some major events will happen in the morning during this period, such as the fine salt in Beishi.

Chunyu Yue was scolded, and the old man knew that Chunyu Yue would not let it go. Several other ministers nodded slightly when they heard the old man's words, expressing deep agreement.

Chun Yuyue, who was standing in the second row, looked at Fusu with a gloomy face.

My mood improved a lot yesterday at Hu Hai's house, and I returned to my own house.

Chunyu Yue learned from the housekeeper that there were rumors everywhere in Xianyang City that he had been scolded by Fusu.

As the cornerstone of Confucianism in the Qin Dynasty, Chunyu Yue valued reputation and face most besides money.

Now that his reputation and face have been damaged, how can he be willing to do so?

He will definitely sue Fusu this morning, even if he can't dislodge Fusu, he will still vent his anger.

Li Si, who was standing next to Chun Yuyue, had a smile on his face.

He also heard the news from Xianyang City yesterday from the housekeeper. Li Si was very surprised when he found out that the Beishi Salt Shop was supported by Mr. Fusu.

It was also the first time that he saw Fusu supporting a shopkeeper like this, but Li Si very much agreed with Fusu's behavior.

The fine salt sold in Beishi is delicious and cheap. People can save a lot of money by eating such good salt.

Li Si was very happy and could understand Fusu's behavior.

The housekeeper later told him that Chun Yuyue went to Bei City to support those evil shopkeepers in West City.

Being scolded by Fusu in front of so many people, Chunyu Yue lost face.

Li Si had always looked down on Chunyu Yue, and he was very happy to see Chunyu Yue in such a mess.

Hu Hai looked at Fusu next to him out of the corner of his eye. Fusu had made a lot of money using fine salt in the past few days.

This morning he must give Fusu some color and let Fusu know that money is not so easy to make.

"Hundred officials enter the palace!"

As the sharp voice calling for the eunuch came out, everyone entered the Qilin Hall in an orderly manner.

After entering the Qilin Hall, everyone knelt down and the atmosphere in the entire hall began to become a little depressing.

Most of the ministers have heard the news spreading everywhere in Xianyang City, and they know in their hearts that today's morning meeting is definitely not simple.

Not long after everyone knelt down, Ying Zheng strode into the Qilin Hall from the side wearing a black dragon robe, walked to the throne and sat down.

"See Your Majesty!"

Fusu Huhai and other ministers stood up and bowed their hands in front of the First Emperor.

"Be flat!"

With a smile on his face, the First Emperor waved his hand for everyone to get up.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After everyone bowed, they knelt down and sat down in their seats again.

Everyone who sat down on their knees looked at the First Emperor, and everyone felt a little strange when they saw the First Emperor's rosy face.

In the mornings these past few days, the First Emperor's face was ruddy and his voice was very powerful.

His Majesty looks more domineering now than before. Xu Fu's true identity was exposed a few days ago.

In their opinion, His Majesty will be very tired in the next period of time.

As a result, the next morning when Xu Fu was exposed, His Majesty's face glowed brightly and he spoke sonorously and forcefully.

The whole person seemed to be very energetic and not affected by Xu Fu at all. This was also the case in the next few days.

Apart from His Majesty himself, there is another person who makes everyone very strange.

That was His Majesty's attitude towards Fusu, even though Fusu had exposed Xu Fu's true face.

It spared His Majesty the need to take poisonous pills, but Fusu's behavior also told others that His Majesty was ignorant of people and was deceived by Xu Fu, a liar.

In their opinion, His Majesty would neglect Fusu because of this matter.

In the morning court in the next few days, when some ministers put forward suggestions, His Majesty would let Fusu express his views first.

This is not a sign of neglect, but it is clearly more important.

This made many ministers puzzled. They did not understand why His Majesty was not dissatisfied with Fusu because of Xu Fu's incident.

"Ministers, what do you have to say today?"
