Chapter 8 Above the court
"Hey! Isn't this our eldest son?"

"Why, you've only been out for more than a month, and you're running back in despair?"

Under the white jade pillar outside the main hall, Xu Fu leaned on the pillar and sneered softly to help Su.

He entered the palace early this morning, and has been waiting for Fusu on the only way in the morning, just to laugh at him now.

"Eldest son, don't forget the bet between us, the three-month period is coming soon!"

"Hey, I just hope that by then, a certain young master won't be dishonest and break our agreement!"

Xu Fu seemed to think that he had settled for Fusu, and his words were full of disdain and ridicule.

Unexpectedly, Fusu didn't even look at him, and regarded him as air, as if these words were not what he said at all.

Before entering the hall, he tidied up his clothes and walked into the hall calmly.

"Damn it! You can't complete the three-month period, shouldn't you be begging me like a pug? How dare you be so arrogant?!"

Seeing Fusu's expression, Xu Fu almost exploded his lungs.

"I wanted to save some face for Emperor Qin. Since you are so arrogant and conceited, see how I will make you lose face in front of the officials later!"

Looking at Fusu's tall back, Xu Fu gritted his teeth and followed him into the hall.

……

Above the main hall, following Fusu's entry, everyone present also turned their attention to the eldest son of Great Qin.

"Am I not dazzled? Is this the eldest son? Shouldn't he be busy building Linjin Road now?"

"Why did the eldest son suddenly appear in this court? Could it be that he has completed all the fortifications of Linjin Dao?"

"How is it possible that such a large amount of work can be completed by you? I guess the eldest son must have encountered some difficult problems that are difficult to solve, so he returned to Beijing!"

The ministers who had not received the news last night talked a lot.

"Young Master's energy-raising skills are almost catching up with His Majesty, how dare you still be so calm and relaxed even though you still have a gambling contract!"

Prime Minister Li Si looked at Fusu secretly, and secretly commented.

"Even if it's not finished, my son still hasn't messed up, not bad!"

Ying Zheng slowly sat on the dragon chair, looked at Fusu, and nodded appreciatively.

Until now, none of the people present had thought about whether Fusu might have completed the construction of Linjin Road...

"Ministers, start playing if you have something to do, and leave the court if you have nothing to do!"

Beside Ying Zheng, eunuch Gao shouted loudly with his throat closed.

"I have something to report!"

Among the generals, General Meng Tian stood at the top.

"Your Majesty, with the coming of summer, the border Huns are becoming more and more rampant!"

"This kind of nomads, relying on their characteristics of not being afraid of heat, constantly provoke our army, harass and massacre the residents of the frontier fortress!"

"In order to protect the stability of the border of Daqin, Your Majesty, please send some more troops to me, so that I can guard the frontier!"

Listening to Meng Tian's words, Emperor Qin's eyebrows were furrowed.

Now the situation in China is much worse than it looks, and there are non-stop cable reports that the remnants of the six kingdoms are uniting all over the country and trying to move!
It’s hard to know how many thieves like Zhao Gao are there in the domestic imperial court.

If you allocate too many troops to resist the Huns at the border, I'm afraid that if something happens in the country, it will be difficult to deal with it for a while.

"Isn't it that the Great Wall has been being built over at the border fortress? Wouldn't the Great Wall be of any help in resisting the Huns?"

Suddenly thinking of this, Qin Huang's eyes lit up, and he asked in a deep voice.

"..."

General Meng Tian frowned, and responded: "Reporting to Your Majesty, the Great Wall is still under construction, but due to insufficient materials, the enemy often comes to provoke and harass, and many other reasons, the progress... is slow!"

"Then...my dear friends, do you have any good ideas?"

Hearing this answer, Ying Zheng sighed helplessly, and questioned His Highness and ministers.

The scene... fell into a deathly silence!

No one can think of a best-of-both-worlds solution.

"That's all! After all, the domestic turmoil is our domestic matter. We must not let the Huns outside the border fortress set foot on half of my land in the Central Plains!"

Emperor Qin looked at the helpless people and let out a long sigh. Just as he was about to order more people to be dispatched, a familiar voice sounded again at an inappropriate time.

"Your Majesty, isn't Master Fusu very proficient in architecture?"

"In just over a month, the construction of Linjin Dao has been completed. Presumably, he will have a clever solution to this matter!"

This person who barks like a mad dog regardless of timing and occasion is exactly Xu Fu!
He concluded that Fusu hadn't completed the road construction, and he deliberately said this irony, just to humiliate Fusu in front of the government and the opposition!
"Little Xu Fu, if you didn't know how to make elixir, I would have kicked you out long ago!"

On the dragon throne, Emperor Qin was on the verge of breaking out.

What are they doing now?Talk about state affairs!

It's fine that Xu Fu has repeatedly disobeyed the holy will, but now he is discussing state affairs, and he still teases Fusu without distinction!

But at this moment, Xu Fu, who was used to being arrogant and arrogant on weekdays relying on his status as a fairy teacher, was looking at Fusu jokingly, expecting him to turn red and come forward to defend himself.

However, the scene he expected did not appear...

With a confident smile on his face, Fusu stepped out slowly.

"My son arrived in Xianyang late last night, and I haven't had time to pay my respects to my father, and ask my father to forgive me!"

"In addition, Master Xu's words are true. The Linjin Road has now been built, and the Great Wall matter, I really have a way to solve it!"

Fusu's words fell into the crowd like a ticking time bomb.

The government and the public exploded instantly!

"Did I hear you right? Eldest Young Master, is he in a coma?! What nonsense are you talking about?!"

"Hahahaha, the eldest son boasts without blinking an eye! Completed the construction of Linjin Road in one month? Why don't you say that you unified the six countries?!"

"How dare he! Talking nonsense here in front of His Majesty! Even the eldest son, this is a crime of deceiving the emperor!!"

In the court hall, representatives of various families who had always been unfavorable to the eldest son were talking a lot, and there was a lot of ridicule in their words.

"Hey, this Fusu is so nice. To save face, he disregards the facts and speaks nonsense in front of His Majesty and the officials! Today, even if His Majesty intends to protect him, it will be difficult to end!"

Prime Minister Li Si remained calm on the surface, while secretly observing Qin Huang's gradually changing face, while secretly shaking his head and sighing softly.

"Hahaha!"

"Aren't you jumping into the fire pit by yourself?!"

Xu Fu was even more ecstatic, almost going crazy with joy.

"Boldly support Su..."

Just as Qin Huang was about to reprimand him, suddenly there was an urgent call from outside the hall.

"Report!"

"Report to Your Majesty, I will make an urgent report to the Shaofu!"

"Master Huang Huang, who is responsible for the construction of Linjin Road, has submitted a secret letter!"
