Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!
Chapter 194: Meng Tian’s death and the killing order against Gao Yao!
The reason why the mysterious man really showed up was the huge impact brought about by Hu Hai's death. Although there is no conclusive evidence that this matter is directly related to Gao Yao, the mysterious man still decided to show up in person. The original plan did not foresee such a major impact, but now the situation has exceeded expectations. Just when the plans for Hu Hai's death were completed, Liu Ji's unexpected death once again caused an uproar.
The mysterious man's attitude towards Gao Yao has always been to kill him if he can, and it doesn't matter if he can't. After all, it is not easy to grow and develop, and the general trend is that Gao Yao will eventually be doomed. However, Liu Ji's death made him unbearable. Gao Yao must die! The trouble he caused is getting worse and worse, and it is difficult to deal with. Not only does he not want to become Zhao Gao, he even killed Liu Ji. If Gao Yao is allowed to continue to act recklessly, it will be very difficult for the mysterious man to save the situation.
So now, for the mysterious man, Gao Yao must die, at any cost. The trouble Gao Yao has caused is too big, and he can't just leave it alone.
Xianyang City, Li Si's residence.
This mansion is magnificent, showing the noble status of its owner. There are exquisite gardens and spacious courtyards in the mansion, with green trees and fragrant flowers. The architectural style of the mansion is elegant and solemn, with carved beams and painted buildings, showing the luxury.
As an important official of the Qin State, Li Si's mansion was no exception. Not only was there a magnificent building and a beautiful environment, but there were also many servants in the mansion.
Li Si's mansion naturally had his own retainers, all of whom were talented people who were taken in and supported by Li Si so that they could provide help and advice when needed. In addition, the mansion also had its own separate dark room, where Li Si handled confidential matters and discussed important decisions.
At this time, in the dark room, Li Si sat on an exquisite chair, quietly looking at the man kneeling on one knee in front of him. The man had a serious expression and stared at Li Si firmly.
Li Si gently picked up a letter on the table, opened it with his hands, and read it carefully. As he read deeper, his brows gradually furrowed, and his eyes flashed with a thoughtful light.
"Your Excellency Prime Minister, my general said that he got his current position thanks to you, so he risked his life to report this matter to you, hoping that you would not fall into the trap of others." The person who came at this time was the confidant sent by Gao Yao. His voice was low and firm, with a hint of determination.
It turned out that this letter was sent to Li Si by Gao Yao's confidant. The content of the letter was not complicated, but it attracted Li Si's attention. This was a letter between Yi Xiaochuan and Yi Xiaochuan in the northern border, or more accurately, a letter between Zhao Gao and Meng Yi.
Li Si fell into deep thought, his fingers tapping the table lightly, making a crisp sound. This news shocked and confused him. Zhao Gao actually had such a close connection with Meng Yi? What did this mean?
He knew very well that Zhao Gao was ambitious. If Zhao Gao really had a relationship with Meng Yi, it would definitely not be a good thing for Li Si. After all, Li Si and the Meng family seemed to be harmonious on the surface, but in fact they were fighting overtly and covertly, especially since the other party supported Fusu.
Li Si decided to keep quiet and investigate the matter secretly. He needed more evidence to confirm the reliability of the news, but he also had to be careful not to fall into the trap set by others. After all, this matter was no longer about a single person or a question of trust, but about the future of the entire Qin Dynasty.
Even the content of the letter is not important at all. What is important is the conspiracy between Zhao Gao and Yi Xiaochuan. No matter how nice it sounds, Zhao Gao, Meng Yi, and Fusu in the north were secretly contacting each other at this critical moment, and they did it without Li Si's knowledge. This is enough.
This was also a foreshadowing that Gao Yao had arranged in Xianyang. After various personnel were arranged in Luoyang, especially for Zhao Gao, where he went, who he met, what he took, and various information were summarized before he got this letter. This letter was also the most advantageous stepping stone for prying Li Si and Zhao Gao into cooperation.
"Mr. Prime Minister, my general has received your help, so he is naturally willing to stand on your side. If Master Fusu can really come back, then..."
"That's enough, back off"
"Here"
Hearing that the other party wanted to say something, Li Si interrupted him and asked him to leave the room. However, Li Si did not move immediately. For Li Si, Gao Yao's calmness, decisiveness, and ability to react in times of crisis, ever since he faced Qin Shi Huang, made him realize that Gao Yao was much smarter than he originally thought.
As for why Gao Yao said this at this time, Li Si was able to think of the answer immediately, that is, he did not want to see himself and Zhao Gao join forces, and with the addition of Meng Tian in the north, the three of them could ensure that Fusu would stably take over the entire Qin Dynasty. When the time came, the Meng family would look for Gao Yao to settle the previous matters, and it was normal for Gao Yao to have such a move.
The only thing Li Si didn't understand was that he and Zhao Gao had agreed to use Prince Yan as the successor of the Qin Dynasty, but now Zhao Gao was secretly contacting Meng Tian. What did this mean? Was he trying to take over Meng Tian's hand and get rid of him, or did the other party have other plans? This was what Li Si really cared about.
Qin Shi Huang's efforts in government affairs were rare among emperors of all dynasties. After ascending the throne, he spent as much as thirteen or fourteen hours a day handling government affairs. However, after taking the so-called elixir, there was indeed some effect at the beginning, and he was full of energy.
However, as he took more and more pills, his body became dependent on them. He couldn't even cheer up if he didn't take the pills. Although he announced the Eastern Tour, anyone with a discerning eye could see that the daily court meetings had basically become unnecessary. The key point was that Qin Shihuang was negligent in government affairs. No one dared to say it, but it didn't mean that no one could see that Qin Shihuang's health was about to run out. Naturally, many people began to worry at this time.
Even Li Si was greatly affected. Fusu had the greatest chance of succession, but Fusu and Li Si had different political views. Once Fusu came to power, Li Si would inevitably lose power. Therefore, some people with ulterior motives had already begun to prepare to join other families in advance. Otherwise, how could Li Si agree to Zhao Gao's idea of cooperation?
Now that he knew about this, Li Si was naturally worried. The appearance of Zhao Gao was already discussed with Meng Tian. Zhao Gao was a means for Meng Tian to delay him so that he would not interfere in the subsequent events.
