Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 139 Gao Yao’s back-up plan, a mysterious visitor?

"What do you mean, sir? Gao Yao really invites you to go to the Southern Territory, and not just to take a look, but to stay temporarily?"

In Feng Quji's mansion, in front of the documents, Feng Quji asked Master Gao with a surprised look on his face,

"Indeed, someone even sent me a valuable gift."

"Haha, Gao Yao has a long-term vision that is beyond the reach of ordinary people."

"Sir, what does this mean?"

Hearing Feng Quji's words, which seemed to have a hidden meaning, Gongzi Gao also cast a curious look at him.

"Sir, you are closer to me. As for Gao Yao, you should know who he is closer to."

"Sir, you mean the Left Prime Minister Li Si?"

After hearing what Feng Quji said, Gongzi Gao quickly thought of someone. After all, he had heard about Li Si inviting Gao to dinner.

"That's right. I'm afraid Gao Yao's inability to come in person is just an excuse. He was just worried that Li Si would find out, so he specially asked the housekeeper in the mansion to come. After all, no one would care what a housekeeper did. This Gao Yao is really thoughtful."

"Sir, that being said, I still can't figure out Gao Yao's purpose."

"this......"

Hearing what Gongzi Gao said, Feng Quji's expression changed slightly. He was obviously a little hesitant, and it could even be said that he didn't know how to explain for a moment.

"Sir, I hope you can tell me the truth."

"This... Gao Yao is a man of deep thoughts and foresight, not something that ordinary people can achieve. Young Master, the death of Young Master Hu Hai should be considered a fuse. To this day, Young Master Fusu is still in the northern border, and this power has not fallen into the hands of any one person."

"Sir, what you mean is that Gao Yao actually..."

Hearing Feng Quji's words, Gongzi Gao's expression changed instantly. Gongzi Gao was not stupid. In the original history, after Hu Hai came to power, most of Qin Shihuang's descendants were brutally killed, but Gongzi Gao was an exception. The exception was that others were forced to be killed, but Gongzi Gao took the initiative to seek death and was buried with Qin Shihuang, thus preserving his entire family.

As for the rest of Qin Shi Huang's children, including Prince Fusu, almost all the related women, children, and even relatives were killed.

It was indeed Xiang Yu who killed the last person in the Qin Dynasty, but it was Hu Hai himself who killed the most people in the Qin royal family. Prince Gao heard the hidden meaning in Feng Quji's words, which was that Gao Yao was already calculating what would happen after Qin Shihuang's death. This was a taboo in the Qin Dynasty. Everyone in the court and the public didn't know how much Qin Shihuang valued the idea of ​​pursuing immortality. Not to mention talking about it, even just thinking about it would be a crime that would cost you your head if others knew about it.

"Sir, Gao Yao didn't say anything, but just invited you to stay in the southern border temporarily for future considerations."

At this time, Feng Quji also directly stated Gao Yao's words and the reasons and benefits of sending the housekeeper in the mansion to the door, that is, he would not be held responsible for anything. At the same time, as long as he thought about the problem later, he would naturally be able to think deeply.

"Sir, even so, I still don't understand. I am not the only one of my father's descendants. Why did Gao choose me? And why did he let me go to the southern border?"

"First, if the same words are said, it depends on whether anyone can understand them. Even if they can understand them, they must have enough ability to execute them. Sir, do you think His Majesty will agree to let any of you go to the southern border?"

"Secondly, as to why we want to invite you to the Southern Territory, the reason is probably because of future events. If the feudal system is restored again, you will definitely be able to gain a place. If you are already in the Southern Territory, it won't be difficult to obtain the Southern Territory as a feudal land. If this is really the case, Gao Yao will let you stay in the Southern Territory in advance. As long as we have a good relationship with you, the governance of the Southern Territory will naturally be a very easy matter in the future."

"Of course there is another possibility, that is, Gao Yao needs an excuse, an excuse for self-governance. Gao Yao has great ambitions."

"Hiss... then this matter..."

"My lord, either pretend you don't know or think carefully about it. Who knows that Gao Yao sent someone to send gifts? If you really want to explain this matter to His Majesty, I'm afraid that Gao Yao may be in trouble after you open your mouth. After all, Gao Yao only sent gifts to the lord. Even if it is confirmed, it is nothing more than Gao Yao looking for a young master to rely on. After all, Young Master Hu Hai is no longer here."

"But once you open your mouth, His Majesty will be furious, because once you open your mouth, things will get worse. So if you don't want to pay attention, it's best to pretend that this matter never happened."

After hearing Feng Quji's analysis, Gongzi Gao immediately broke out in a cold sweat. Fortunately, he took the initiative to ask Feng Quji. Otherwise, if he went directly to Qin Shihuang to report, the matter would most likely be troublesome.

"Sir, do you have any opinion on this matter?"

"Haha, young master, you should figure this out yourself. But considering your character, going to the southern border may not be a bad thing to some extent."

"Oh?"

"The tree wants to be still but the wind does not stop. After all, no one can predict the future power changes. Young Master is a kind person who does not fight or compete. However, your status here will inevitably become a reason for others to use their power against you sometimes."

Feng Quji also gave Gongzi Gao a reason, which made Gongzi Gao fall into deep thought. After all, Qin Shihuang had more than a dozen sons and daughters. The oldest one, Fusu, was already in his twenties, and the younger ones were still children. Qin Shihuang could not pay attention to so many of them, especially those sons who already had their own residences. Basically, it was more difficult for them to meet Qin Shihuang than for normal ministers in the court. They also needed to ask for permission. After asking for permission, they had to see whether Qin Shihuang was willing to meet them and the reason for the meeting.

At the same time, someone came to visit Yi Xiaochuan who was still in the mansion. Yi Xiaochuan didn't want to meet him at first, but after the servant came up and said something, Yi Xiaochuan immediately prepared to meet the other party. The three words were Tang Wushan.

Soon, in the Meng family's mansion, Yi Xiaochuan soon saw the mysterious visitor in his own yard. The visitor was wrapped in a cloak, and even most of his face was covered.

"Meng Yi? Or should I just call you Yi Xiaochuan?"

As the man spoke, a hoarse and somewhat gloomy voice appeared...
