Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 162 Xu Fu
"what?"

Qin Wangzheng's eyes flashed with surprise, and his face was full of disbelief.

The person who died in Qin Dynasty, Hu Shiba, isn't this referring to his 12-year-old son?
He is benevolent and benevolent, he despises wealth and emphasizes land, and he argues with his heart but speaks with his mouth. I love him very much.

Many years ago, I ordered Zhao Gao, who was proficient in Dharma, to teach him and let him learn the laws of Qin and Qin.

Li Si, Feng Quji and others also felt that Hu Hai was smart and proficient in Qin's laws. From time to time, they used language to hint to me that he was the best candidate for the crown prince.

Why is he the king of subjugation?
Qin Wangzheng glanced at Xiaozhinu with his peripheral vision. Xiaozhinu nodded heavily, picked up the bamboo curtain paper, and placed it in Qin Wangzheng's hand.

Qin Wangzheng watched it repeatedly, and it seemed that every word on the bamboo curtain paper was what the little childish slave wanted to pass on!

Immediately, King Qin became ruthless and immediately called: "Order the eighteenth son Hu Hai to enter the palace!"

In a quarter of an hour, Hu Hai stepped into the hall in his robes, leaned over and cupped his hands and said, "Greetings, father!"

Qin Wang Zhengduan is sitting on the emperor's couch, so no one can imagine that the clever Hu Hai will destroy the foundation I have laid.

Although I don't know if the rumors are true, but the news delivered by Xiao Zhinu has always been the most reliable.

I would rather kill a thousand by mistake than let one go!
I made an oath before I was ready to build the career of future generations of emperors, and any obstacle is a stumbling block.

Before Hu Hai could speak, Qin Wangzheng looked fiercely, coughed lightly, and the knives and axes in the hall rushed out in unison.

Hu Hai was dumbfounded, his legs were so frightened that his legs became weak, and his knees hit the ground heavily, and he said in a trembling voice, "Father, why is this?"

Qin Wangzheng smiled contemptuously: "Bold! Hu Hai, as a prince, you don't know how to respect yourself, yet you want to compete with Fusu for the crown prince?"

boom!
Hu Hai stared blankly.

I wouldn't dare compete with my eldest brother for the crown prince's position, even if I were ten times more courageous!

Hu Hai begged for mercy in a trembling voice: "My son, I dare not have any wrong thoughts. Your Majesty, please don't listen to the villain's slander. I hope your Majesty will understand clearly!"

Qin Wangzheng smiled coldly: "If I don't have a clear understanding, how can I make a judgment on my own?"

"Come here! Capture Hu Hai. He has evil plans and joins forces with treacherous ministers to seek the crown prince position. He will be beheaded in Nanshi tomorrow and put Hu Ji in the cold palace!"

Zhao Gao knelt on the ground with a thud. As Hu Hai's teacher, he would also be implicated, but Zhao Gao said that Qin Wangzheng couldn't bear to kill him, so he pardoned him.

Hu Hai was panic-stricken and could not utter any words. He said to himself: "Why would your Majesty say that my eldest brother and I are competing for the position of prince? I am very cautious in everything and I don't have any unreasonable thoughts!"

It's a pity that Hu Hai's status in Qin Wangzheng's heart is far lower than that of Xiao Zhinu.

Just like that, Hu Hai was dragged out of the main hall without any wailing. He knew Qin Wangzheng's character, and if he asked for help, his end would only be worse.

The news of Hu Hai's death spread in the palace, and many officials in the court entered the main hall one after another to intercede for Hu Hai.

Among them was Li Si, who was a representative of the legalist school and had always been at odds with Fusu.

If Hu Hai died, the successor must be Fu Su, wouldn't he fall out of favor, or even be demoted?

This was not what Li Si wanted to see, so Li Si entered the palace to intercede: "Your Majesty, when did the eighteenth son Hu Hai conspire to become the crown prince?"

Qin Wangzheng stood up suddenly, walked on the high platform, and said slowly: "I don't know either!"

Li Si became even more panicked, with cold sweat rolling down his back, and Qin Wangzheng added: "There is no need for it!"

Hearing Qin Wangzheng's words, Li Si felt a chill running down his spine.

what?
Needless to say?
Why did Your Majesty make such a hasty decision?

Qin Wangzheng saw what Li Si was thinking, and slowly handed a piece of bamboo curtain paper to Li Si, and said calmly: "This is Lu Sheng's take from the fairy mountain, it is written by the immortal, and it is the prophecy of the Qin Kingdom!"

Li Si's eyes were dull, looking at the five characters "Hu Ye, the one who destroyed Qin", and wondered: "Why aren't they the foreign barbarians from the north?"

Qin Wangzheng's eyes were fixed, killing intent burst out in his eyes, and he immediately took out the Chapter 2 bamboo curtain paper.

Li Si took a breath and was completely stunned.

He does not believe in immortal prophecies, let alone the way to immortality, but Qin Wangzheng has no doubt about it.

Therefore, he wanted to persuade but couldn't open his mouth, and then looked up at Qin Wangzheng's tiger eyes, and swallowed the words that were on his lips.

Qin Wangzheng's face was not happy or angry, calm as water, he tossed his sleeves and said: "Is Prime Minister Zuo doing other things?"

Li Si didn't dare to speak, so he could only shake his head lightly and leave slowly.

Hu Hai's death has been basically confirmed, so that no one can believe that his death is because of a frog!
In the spring of the next year, Qin Wangzheng once again traveled to Langya, Shandong.

Qin Wangzheng stood on a high place facing the sea, and could vaguely see celestial-like pavilions on the sea, and palace maids moving about.

He shouted for others to see, but no one saw it.

This incident convinced Qin Wangzheng that he was the emperor and that the palace in the sea was built for him by heaven. If he became an immortal, he would surely enjoy it in heaven.

Since then, Qin Wangzheng has been alienated from state affairs, dreaming that one day he can become a fairy emperor.

He ordered people to build a boat, and then sat on the boat around the Shandong Peninsula for three months.

The alchemist Xu Fu once saw these three fairy mountains with his own eyes, so he went to the ship to persuade the King of Qin: "Your Majesty, I have seen the three fairy mountains overseas, which are called Penglai, Yingzhou, and Abbot."

"I have also heard the legend of the three fairy mountains. Your Majesty, please order me to build a ship and cross the vast sea to find the fairy mountains overseas!"

The way of longevity is a dream in Huangliang, but Qin Wangzheng still has a glimmer of life, so Xu Fu and others went into the sea to find the fairy medicine.

After a three-month boat trip, Xu Fu spent a lot of time and money with his team but failed to find it. He was afraid of being punished, so he deceived Qin Wangzheng and said: "Your Majesty, there are three sacred mountains in the sea. But we are often troubled by sharks, so we can't reach it."

"I hope that the emperor will send someone who is good at shooting to go with him. If he encounters a shark, he will shoot it with a repeating crossbow."

It so happened that Qin Wangzheng had a dream of fighting with the sea god, whose shape was similar to that of a human.Dr. Zhanmeng said: "Water God can't see it, he uses big fish and dragons as detectives."

"Now the emperor's priests are thoughtful and respectful, but this kind of evil god appears. Only by getting rid of it can we find the real good god."

Therefore, Qin Wangzheng ordered the people who entered the sea to carry tools for catching big fish, and personally took a bow and crossbow to shoot a big fish.

After shooting the big fish, Xu Fu continued to lie to the first emperor, saying: "According to the old man, there is a fairy mountain on the east side of the ocean. Immortals live on the island and can make immortal medicine. Those who eat this elixir can live forever, but the fairy mountain needs a lot of virgins. .”

Qin Wangzheng believed it was true, and recruited five hundred boys and girls from the people, and brought Xu Fu a lot of money for shipbuilding.

However, the shipbuilding technology of the Qin Dynasty was not well developed, and the shipbuilders frowned, but they were helpless after all.

Therefore, Xiao Zhinu took the initiative to go to another world to find advanced shipbuilding technology.
