Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!
Chapter 240 Feng Quji meets Master Gao and tries to persuade him?
Since Gao Yao had already decided to do it, he naturally would not waste time. He notified the construction team as soon as he returned to the mansion. The infrastructure in the southern border was completed quickly and well, which was inseparable from these infrastructure teams. These infrastructure teams were basically able to perfectly use construction tools including hand saws, various pulleys and postmodern tools, and they knew how to calculate the labor and materials using simple mathematical calculations. Gao Yao's requirement was to build a heavenly altar within three days.
At the same time, Gao Yao also sent out all the caravan members and many spies to spread the news that Prince Gao Yu had become the king of the Southern Territory. This move would undoubtedly attract the attention of various forces, but Gao Yao did not care.
As the news spread, reactions varied from place to place, and there was no doubt that the counties closest to the border were the most fearful. After all, the next step to becoming king was to send troops to pacify the world. There was no room for two tigers in one mountain, and the two Qin states appeared at the same time. This situation instantly attracted the attention of countless people. Everyone was waiting for the movements of the southern border and what reaction Xianyang would make after receiving the news.
Three days later, the entire Nanhai County City, and even the entire southern border, was operating frantically because of this matter. A large number of people poured into the Nanhai County City, and generals of all levels in the army and political leaders in various places were all notified as quickly as possible.
Of course, those who were a little further away did not need to come. Gao Yao would notify only those who could arrive within three days. During these three days, Gongzi Gao was also restricted from going out, and a special tailor began to make royal clothes and various accessories for Gongzi Gao. Even Gongzi Gao's wife was arranged to make clothes. As for the dozen servants and maids that Gongzi Gao originally brought from Xianyang, they all disappeared, including the house, which was directly replaced with one of the best houses in the entire Nanhai County.
These changes made Gongzi Gao feel a little panicked and overwhelmed, but he knew that all this was to prepare for the upcoming enthronement. At this time, even if Gongzi Gao wanted to resist, it would be useless because he would not be given this opportunity. He could either accept it silently or his entire family would be in danger.
Gongzi Gao never thought that Feng Quji's words would come true, and now it has really come to this. He has completely become a puppet in Gao Yao's hands, and has no power to fight back. In the morning of the coronation day, Gongzi Gao's mansion began to get busy, and several servants had already been waiting outside Gongzi Gao's door.
"King Qin, there is someone outside the door claiming to be an old friend of King Qin, and he has come to visit specially." At this time, the servants in the entire mansion had changed their words and directly called Gongzi Gao the King Qin. In this regard, Gongzi Gao had no choice but to accept it. However, when he heard that an old friend was visiting, Gongzi Gao was still very confused. After all, he didn't have many friends in the southern border.
“Who is it?”
"Reply to the King of Qin, the man claims to be Feng Quji."
"What? Sir! Hurry up and invite the sir into the house."
"Here"
When he heard that the person coming was Feng Quji, Gongzi Gao became excited. He widened his eyes and his breathing became rapid, as if the blood in his body was boiling. Feng Quji did not contact Gongzi Gao after arriving in the southern border, because he knew that if he contacted Gongzi Gao, Gao Yao would probably find out. However, what he did not expect was that even if he chose a free and easy lifestyle, he still could not escape Gao Yao's surveillance.
When Gongzi Gao saw Feng Quji, his face was full of excitement and anticipation. He stepped forward without hesitation, eager to talk to Feng Quji. However, halfway through, he suddenly stopped, with a flash of alertness in his eyes. He realized that he couldn't let anyone know about their relationship.
Then he turned around and shouted to the servants around him: "All of you get out!"
The servants responded in unison, "Yes!" and quickly left the courtyard.
At this moment, only Gongzi Gao and Feng Quji were left. Seeing this, Feng Quji quickly stepped forward, bowed respectfully, and said, "Greetings, King Qin!"
Gongzi Gao quickly helped Feng Quji up, his eyes sparkling with gratitude, and said, "Sir, what do you mean? What King Qin? I was forced to do all this! What you said before is absolutely right. I really misjudged Gao Yao. He is really a man with ulterior motives!"
After meeting Feng Quji, Gongzi Gao finally couldn't help but say what he had been holding back in his heart: "Alas, Master, I actually arrived in the southern border a long time ago, and I thought I was hiding well, but I didn't expect that I would be discovered by Gao Yao so early."
"Gao Yao discovered you? That's right, otherwise why would you be here?"
Upon hearing that Feng Quji had also been discovered, Gongzi Gao was a little nervous at first, but he soon realized that if Feng Quji had not been discovered, given his current situation, how could anyone visit him casually, let alone on such an important day.
"Sir, for now, please cooperate with Gao Yao as much as possible."
"What? Sir, even you..." After hearing Feng Quji's words, Gongzi Gao showed a look of surprise on his face. He never thought that Feng Quji actually came to advise him.
"Sir, to be honest, Gao wants me to be your prime minister." Feng Quji looked at Master Gao, sighed and said,
Hearing this, Gongzi Gao showed a surprised expression on his face. He did not expect that Feng Quji, whom he had always trusted, would actually accept such a proposal. He could not help but say: "Prime Minister? Sir, you would actually..." His voice was filled with a hint of doubt and disappointment.
Feng Quji seemed to see what Gongzi Gao was thinking, and hurriedly explained: "Gongzi, do you think I really care about this so-called position of prime minister? In your eyes, am I really that kind of person?" His tone was full of helplessness and grievance.
After hearing this, Gongzi Gao's face changed slightly. He realized that he might have misunderstood Feng Quji's intention. Feng Quji had once served as the prime minister of Qin. If he really wanted power, why would he choose to join Gao Yao? Thinking of this, Gongzi Gao couldn't help feeling a little guilty.
He quickly apologized to Feng Quji, "Sir, I misunderstood your meaning. Please forgive my recklessness."
Feng Quji sighed and continued, "Sir, even if I were stabbed with a sword or threatened with my life, I would not bow my head. The reason why I pretended to agree to Gao Yao's request was entirely for your sake."
Gongzi Gao's eyes widened and he asked curiously, "Sir, what do you mean by that?"
