==============================================

Qin Yang rode the snow-treading wind across Wu'an, bypassed Handan, and then drove east along the old Zhao Qi official road. His destination was Xiajin Town, which was three hundred miles east (note).

While riding a horse, Qin Yang had already analyzed that the first emperor fell ill in Pingyuanjin in early July, and his plan to go north to Jiuyuan would be shelved.If you want to return to Xianyang from Pingyuanjin, you will definitely take this official road.Moreover, the first emperor was seriously ill and would stop and go, and he did not arrive at the Dune Palace until July 21.Today is July [-]th, so the first emperor's camping car has only reached the vicinity of Xiajin at most.

Just as Qin Yang expected, Shi Huang's camp was camping in the woods next to the official road less than twenty miles away from Xiajin.When the first ray of dawn quietly embraced the entire earth, the entire camp was still immersed in silence.

Apart from the patrolling guards, the only person who was sober at this moment was Li Si.

It has been six full days since the first emperor fell ill again on July [-]th, and Li Si has not had a peaceful night's sleep.During the day, I was fine, reviewing various memorials, picking out those urgent documents waiting for His Majesty's decision, starting and stopping the general manager's camp, discussing with the accompanying ministers the emergency plan for the emperor's serious illness, everything was exhausting and busy.But at night, when he was alone, Li Si felt a loss in his heart, and all kinds of thoughts disturbed him, making him restless for a moment.

He seemed to feel that he had lost himself, that he was no longer the former Li Si, who was full of spirit, pointed out the country, and acted decisively.He couldn't figure out why, and what made him feel this way.He found that he seemed to be worried about something and seemed to be afraid of something?

Last night, Li Si had another sleepless night. When he realized that there was already some light, he immediately came out of the tent, thinking of going outside to clear his mind.

Breathing the fresh air, feeling the coolness of the midsummer morning, facing the red in the east,

Li Si's mind was heavy and erratic, heavy like dark clouds, and erratic like catkins in the sky.

Since the autumn and winter of last year, the emperor's words and deeds seem to have undergone some unfathomable changes, and there are some unspeakable thoughts on his mind.What kind of change?What's on your mind?Li Si seemed to have vaguely caught some kind of shadow, but he couldn't confirm anything.After returning from shooting sharks in the East China Sea, Li Si felt even more uneasy after the emperor suddenly changed his hunting route.In the past years, Li Si had been ignorant of many things, but he was never so disturbed once.why?Since Li Si used the center of affairs, almost any major policy decision was agreed in advance between the emperor and him. Even if the final decision was different from his plan, he would know it in advance.But this time the hunting tour was different. He only knew about several things after the emperor made a decision.The key here is that it doesn't matter how many hours or days before the rest of the ministers know, the important thing is, why didn't the emperor discuss with him to make a decision?Why did the emperor change the tacit understanding of "conspiracy" reached with him over the years?

The past was vivid in his mind, Li Si began to sort out one by one.

When the emperor came back from presiding over Wang Ben's funeral, the first thing he wanted to do was to reduce the corvee service in the world. What kind of thoughts did he have on his mind? Did he just hear that Liu Bang fled in a gang and Ying Bu gathered a crowd to make trouble?Probably not, it seems that the emperor began to think about the gains and losses of the New Deal, and began to correct some decrees that would easily arouse public turmoil without any trace, and the proposal to change the corvee order is an obvious example.

However, this is full of strangeness.First of all, the emperor's chilling silence after hearing the situation of the old Qin people in Guanzhong that day seemed to contain some deeper meaning.Secondly, the emperor's motion in the past winter was very abrupt during this hunting tour, and he also clearly expressed his disapproval at that time.Because, with the emperor's physique, it is really not suitable to trek long distances, but His Majesty insisted on it, and after shooting sharks in the East China Sea, he insisted on going north to Jiuyuan. What exactly does the emperor want to do?Why do you avoid me in everything?Third, when Meng Yi returned to the capital, why didn't he let himself be in charge of the emperor's seal but gave it to Zhao Gao?What is this for?

After pondering for a long time, Li Si suddenly understood that the emperor had only one thought, and that was to secretly confirm the crown prince, and secretly excluded himself.Because, as far as Da Qin is concerned, only this most important event has never been clarified, and only this important event that cannot be determined in advance deserves to be treated as a secret by the emperor.It can be seen from His Majesty's insistence on going north to Jiuyuan that the crown prince to be determined must be Fusu.If the purpose of the emperor's hunting tour is to establish a secret reserve, but he, the prime minister, cannot hear about it, then there is only one possibility—the emperor has deep doubts about him, the prime minister!Otherwise, throughout the ages, how many precedents have there been for a king to be able to leave the prime minister because of his aftermath?And once the prime minister no longer hears about the important matter of "Gu Ming", his ending can only be dethroned and killed!Because, any king will not leave a powerful minister who is considered suspicious and talented as a future trouble.

But why did the emperor act so cautiously?Couldn't he issue an edict to summon Fusu to come to the camp and clarify Fusu's position as the heir apparent in front of all the ministers?What is the emperor worried about or afraid of?Could it be that the emperor was afraid that the edict would make it difficult to reach Jiuyuan?Why is this?

There should be two reasons. One is that the trip to Jiuyuan is nearly two thousand miles away. Even if it is a round trip day and night, it will take at least five or six days. The emperor was afraid that he would not be able to support that time. time; and then it should be worried that the imperial edict may not be sent out.And the emperor is probably most scruples about himself, because only himself, the prime minister, has this strength.

Think about Fusu again. Everyone in the court knows that only the elder son Fusu is the one who proposes to rectify the deviations of the Great Qin New Deal in general.Moreover, he reported Fusu's inappropriate words and deeds to His Majesty the Emperor as soon as possible because of the "deception of Confucianism", which directly led to Fusu's relegation to the Jiuyuan Supervising Army.After the unification of the world, I am not only the general maker of the new imperial policy, but also the actual implementer of the overall implementation.If Fusu is in power, facing the people all over the world criticizing the harshness of the Qin government, will he be held accountable for the crime, and the emperor will be held accountable?Impossible, because none of the subjects would openly criticize the emperor, let alone hold the emperor accountable for his crimes. Besides, he must bear the brunt of it and end up being called a "ruthless official and disorderly government".Coupled with the original rift, what will be waiting for him?

Can your credit be compared to that of Lord Shang?If Shang Jun's great achievements comparable to the sun and the moon are still torn apart by the car, what's the matter with you!Thinking of this, Li Si broke out in a cold sweat.Thinking about Shang Jun's affiliation is even more frustrating.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, think of me, Li Si, who has pondered everything for the past 30 years. I have always been cautious and careful, and I want to work together with you. Why do you doubt that I have come to this point! Li Si, Li Si, have you just given up on your career? You Are you really willing to stand still? If not, where is your path!?"

Li Si was really lost, he couldn't find a way out and he couldn't see hope.He just kept thinking and wandering in the woods, until the fiery red sun quietly jumped out of the horizon, until a strange light appeared in his eyes...

ps Note: "Hanshu Shihuozhi 1800" said: "The way of rationalizing the people is based on land. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a step and a mu to correct its classics. Six feet are a step, a hundred steps are a mu, and a hundred mu is a Husband, the third of the house is the house, the third of the house is the liter, and the well is one mile, it is for the nine husbands.” From this record, we can know that the nine hundred acres of cultivated land cultivated by the nine husbands with one mile of the well, the length of each side is Three hundred steps in one mile.One step is six feet, and three hundred steps in one mile is 0 feet.One chi is approximately equal to 231 meters, which was the same system in the Qin and Han Dynasties. From this, it can be calculated that one mile in the Qin Empire was equal to 1800 feet, which was 415 meters.
