VII

Fusu pulled out the sword in his hand very slowly, the sharp blade gleamed with a cold light, reflecting Fusu's calm and indifferent face to the point of frightening, thin cheeks, pale skin, like the narrow eyes of the emperor , the long eyebrows that are as thick as ink fly slantingly into the temples, the temples are cut like a knife, and the nose is like a gall, such a similar face, how can you not like it?How could you not like it?But unfortunately, that person doesn't like it...

So, Fusu raised the corners of his mouth slowly, smiled slowly, and gradually laughed uncontrollably until he bent over laughing.Meng Tian, ​​who followed closely into the inner room, saw Fusu laughing wildly as if in a daze, and was about to step forward to comfort him, but saw Fusu suddenly stop laughing, and read word by word: "I travel the world, pray Shrine to the gods of famous mountains to prolong life. Today, Fusu and general Meng Tian have hundreds of thousands of troops in the border area. It has been more than ten years, and they can't move forward. The soldiers are exhausted, and there is no merit. It is an anti-counterfeit letter that slanders me. He resented him day and night. Fusu was unfilial, and he gave him a sword to kill himself! General Tian and Fusu were outsiders. It belongs to the general Wang Li." The blade was half drawn, Fusu closed his eyes, the hand holding the sword exerted strength, pulled out the blade, threw away the scabbard, and slashed the sword across his neck.

Meng Tian panicked, stepped forward to hold Fusu's sword-holding hand, and said in a hurry: "Your Majesty lives outside, and the crown prince has not yet been established, so the envoys will guard the border with 30 people, and the young master is the prisoner. This is a heavy responsibility in the world. Today, as soon as the envoy comes, he commits suicide. Do you know it’s not a fraud? Please reapply, reapply and die before it’s too late.”

As if reciting a line, Fu Su said without emotion: "The father gave the son to die, Shang An please." Then he looked at Meng Tian quietly, at this general who was like a teacher and a friend.

Those ashes-like despairing eyes were lifeless, as black as a deep pool, cold and silent, so Meng Tian sighed, let go of his clenched hands, turned around and walked out of the inner room.

Being unfilial, exhausting soldiers, making merits of no size, writing outright slander, which one is not shocking, which one is not bloody, from the very beginning of crying to the present calm, Fusu has accepted this imperial edict six times.Yes, six times.Familiar with every word of the imperial edict, he could copy it with his eyes closed. Master Li Si's Xiaozhuan, which is the most famous in the world, every word is as beautiful as a painting, and every word can kill him.

For the first time, he wept in despair in disbelief. For a little bit of dignity, he didn't want to die in public, so he chose to enter the inner room and commit suicide.I thought it was all over, but in a blink of an eye, he returned to the moment when he received the imperial edict. At that time, he was stunned. He took the sword bestowed by the emperor and walked into the inner room in a daze, about to kill himself again. Fu Su woke up, this time he chose to obey Meng Tian's words, put down the sword in his hand, turned around and wrote a bamboo slip asking for instructions, rolled it up and handed it to the messenger outside the door, after all there is hope for life, who wants to die?What's more, he still wanted to see the emperor again with his own eyes, even if it was only for one side.

At this time, he was in a trance, and he didn't see the disdainful or even mocking eyes of the messenger.Waiting anxiously, rushing for eight hundred miles, traveling day and night, and back and forth in less than half a month, the one who waits is still to die!Even the wording of the imperial edict became more and more intense, hurting Fusu to the brim!This makes Fusu, who has always been proud, so embarrassed!At the moment when he received the reply, Fusu drew out the sword in the envoy's hand without even thinking about it, and killed himself in front of the envoy!At this moment, that is, at this moment, Fusu saw the contempt in the eyes of the envoy, and a deep suspicion welled up in his heart, but it was too late.

For the third time, Fusu, who woke up from the darkness, quietly listened to the envoy's edict, knelt down respectfully, received the edict and the sword, and stood up, "Take it for me!" Unexpectedly, Fusu waved his hand Pointing to the envoy and his group, and speaking, suddenly even the soldiers present were stunned. "What are you doing in a daze! Do you want me to do it yourself?" Fu Su turned around and shouted.Meng Tian was also taken aback by Fusu's sudden attack, but he also chose to remain silent, and even gave the guard a wink, telling the guard to take down the envoy and his party.After all, it was not only Fusu who was given death, but also him!

Resolutely detaining the envoy, Fusu turned and went into the inner room, casually prepared some dry food for the road, rushed to the stable, found his beloved horse, and was about to ride away.Meng Tian who rushed over stopped Fu Su and asked, "Where is your master going? What are you going to do?"

Fusu didn't have time to explain, so he said in a hurry: "Go to the emperor! The army will be handed over to you, general! Be sure to keep an eye on those envoys!" He rode his horse and passed by Meng Tian. He didn't bring any guards with him, so he rushed to the unknown unknown so eagerly.

Naturally, the army is relieved to have Meng Tian Fusu. What he didn't expect was that when he arrived at the sand dunes, what he saw was not his father, but his favored younger brother—Hu Hai. Hu Hai saw him as if he saw a ghost. Ran into the palace in panic.Fusu wanted to chase in, but was stopped by the guard outside the door.Fusu didn't dare to force his way in, so he had to shout loudly: "My minister Fusu pays homage to my father! I have something to report! I beg my father to allow me to face him in person! That's it! My son will die without regret!"

I thought that if this was the case, at least I would be able to see the last side, but I didn't expect that there were countless archers waiting, and the arrows in the cold light pointed directly at Fusu's whole body. Cool to the bottom of my heart.Zhao Gao carried Hu Hai, and Li Si walked out of the palace gate. Hu Hai was still panicked. Li Si looked with impatience and pity in his eyes. Only Zhao Gao looked at him with complacency and said, "Your Majesty said that it is disrespectful for the son to help Su to resist orders. Leaving his post, now he even wants to break into the Forbidden Palace! Do you want to kill the king and rebel?!"

"I...don't dare..." Fusu knelt down on the ground, put his head on the ground, and cried again.He never thought of killing the king, how could he kill the king?That is his king, his god!

"Fire arrows!"

"Zhao Gao! You! You are so courageous!" Li Si looked in disbelief at Zhao Gao who ordered to shoot the arrow, and at Fusu who was lying in a pool of blood like a hedgehog, and was shocked.It is one thing to order Fusu to commit suicide by a false edict, but another thing to personally order Fusu to kill him with an arrow!What's more, it's not just anyone!He is the eldest son of Daqin and the heir to the empire!He is Li Si's favorite son-in-law!Even because of political differences, he never thought that he would die so painfully!

"Courage? Lord Li! Don't forget! Your majesty gave you the courage of your subordinates! It was given by you, Lord Li! It was given by Mr. Hu Hai!" Zhao Gao looked at Li Si and said with a smile, full of malice , are all grasshoppers on the same rope, if something happens, no one can run away, if Fusu doesn't die, they will die!

Hu Hai looked at Fusu, who was still alive, with a pale face. What he didn't expect was that what happened this time was just the beginning, and he had more than 20 older brothers and sisters, one by one, who would be like the big brother in front of him. die!What was even more unexpected was that this huge empire, in his hands for only three years, would be wiped out and become the dust of history...

Li Si was silent, he didn't know, his silence made him so close to death.His loyal life, in the end, will not be guaranteed at the end of the year, and his stigma will last forever.What was even more unexpected was that just one year later, he was sentenced to five tortures that he was familiar with because of "rebellion": tattooing (stabbing on the face), cutting off the nose, cutting off the tongue, chopping off After the toe, he was chopped up in the middle of Xianyang's busy market, destroying the three clans...

Hot blood flowed into his eyes, and the world was blood-red. Fusu thought, if he did it again, he would never be so stupid... The emperor in the world has a heart made of iron and stone. not to him.In his gradually fading consciousness, he heard in a trance that Zhao Gao ordered everyone to clean up the scene, tidy up their belongings, and set up an order to drive to Xianyang.In a trance, I saw that the dune palace slowly opened.Hearing it in a trance, a faint rancid smell lingered on the tip of the nose and never dissipated...
