Among the officials following Ying Zheng on his western tour, besides Chun Yuyue, there was another man who was suffering from hunger and refused to eat anything from Li Shui.

He is Feng Renji.

It's not that Feng Renji doesn't want to eat, but he doesn't dare to eat.

If Li Shui catches him and asks him to impeach anyone at will, he will really risk his life just for one bite.

It was late at night, and Feng Renji was lying on the low couch, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Hungry.

He was a little doubtful, how did Mr. Fusu manage to eat such simple meals?

Then Feng Renji began to doubt himself again. A year ago, didn't he eat this kind of simple food every day? How could he forget his roots in a year?

Just when he was thinking wildly, there was a knock on the door.

Feng Renji sighed and asked, "Who is it?"

There was a kind voice outside: "It's me."

When Feng Renji heard this voice, he immediately shuddered.

He recognized it as the voice of the banished immortal.

Now Feng Renji's intestines are filled with regret. If he had known earlier, he would have kept quiet. Now he can't even pretend to be asleep.

Immediately afterwards, Li Xin's voice came from outside: "Brother Feng, please open the door. I know you are inside."

Feng Renji gritted his teeth, got up from the low couch, and opened the door.

Li Shui and Li Xin stood outside with smiles, and then took out a basket: "Today, all the civil and military officials in the court had supper. You haven't eaten it yet, right? We brought it to you specially."

Feng Renji thanked him repeatedly and invited Li Shui and Li Xin in.

The food and wine were set out, and the aroma was so overwhelming that Feng Renji couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva.

Li Shui said: "Please use it, we have already eaten. You can do it yourself."

Feng Renji couldn't hold it in any longer and started eating and drinking heavily.

A quarter of an hour later, Feng Renji was full.

Li Shui said: "As for the meal money, just give me the market price."

Feng Renji responded repeatedly and began to pay.

Paying for meals is a natural thing, and Feng Renji doesn't think there's anything wrong with it. As for the price of this meal... they didn't force it on them.

After paying the money, Feng Renji looked at Li Shui and Li Xin awkwardly.

He was waiting for these two people to leave, but they had no intention of leaving.

Feng Renji had a bad premonition in his heart.

Sure enough, Li Shui said: "Brother Feng, have you paid back your five hundred yi gold deficit?"

Feng Renji said fearfully: "I'm still collecting money."

Li Shui said: "Oh, don't worry, I will never tell anyone else until you collect the money."

Feng Renji was obedient.

After threatening Feng Renji, Li Shui said to Feng Renji: "How about you help me impeach someone?"

Feng Renji suddenly wanted to hang himself from the beam on the spot.

But he did not have the courage to die. He could only ask anxiously: "Exiled Immortal, who are you going to impeach?"

Li Shui said: "It's not who I want to impeach, it's who you want to impeach."

Feng Renji wiped the cold sweat on his head and said, "Yes, who is going to be impeached if you banish an immortal?"

Li Shui said: "Impeach Young Master Hu Hai."

Feng Renji seemed to see himself being tied up by Wu Hua Da and being taken to the execution ground.

In the past, I only impeached the ministers, but now I am impeaching the young master. The game is really getting bigger and bigger, and it will never end.

Feng Renji said to Li Shui in a tone of begging for mercy: "To banish an immortal, a low-ranking official speaks lightly. First he impeached an important minister, and now he impeaches a young master. Maybe one day, his head will be removed."

Li Shui waved his hand: "What are you afraid of? You died because of your honest advice. When I write history books in the future, I will definitely praise you greatly."

Feng Renji's face turned pale.

Li Xin coughed dryly and cast a warning look at Li Shui.

Li Shui reacted immediately and changed his words: "Of course. Mr. Tingwei and the imperial censor are protecting you. You will not die."

When Feng Renji heard this, he felt even more desperate.

How do you know whether Mr. Ting Wei can protect me or not, whether Dr. Yushi can protect me?

You picked them both out, except yourself. What does this mean? Does it mean you are not going to protect me?

Li Shui and Li Xin stood up and said to Feng Renji: "Just do it boldly without any worries in your heart. We will not tell anyone about your greed for five hundred gold."

After making explicit threats, Li Shui and Li Xin went out.

At this time, Feng Renji tried his best to refuse the matter. He said carefully: "I have my destiny to banish immortals, how dare I disobey the official? It's just that... the official and Mr. Hu Hai are not familiar with each other. And Mr. Hu Hai

I have lived in the palace for a long time and have not violated the law. Even if I want to be impeached, there is no excuse."

Li Shui said with a smile: "Dr. Chunyu is such an incorruptible person. Didn't Master Feng find an excuse to impeach him? I believe that as long as you use one-tenth of your intelligence, you can always find a way to impeach Mr. Hu Hai."

."

Feng Renji remembered that after impeaching Chunyu Yue last time, His Majesty gave him a hundred canes. He also warned that if he impeached courtiers for such a messy reason again, he would definitely be punished.

Feng Renji suddenly felt that his life was really in danger.

Li Shui and Li Xin finally left.

Feng Renji lit the oil lamp, sat in front of the table, and thought hard, still not knowing what to do.

The crime cannot be too serious, otherwise it will set you on fire.

Don't take it too lightly. If it appears to be child's play, Your Majesty will definitely punish you.

But the key point is that there is nothing wrong with Mr. Hu Hai.

If you impeach other ministers and fabricate some charges, that's fine. Hu Hai is the prince of Qin Dynasty. If he is wrongly accused...

Feng Renji shuddered and did not dare to think about it any more.

It was already dawn, and Feng Renji didn't sleep all night, he was terribly worried.

At this time, someone came to visit again.

He is Li Si's servant.

The servant walked into Feng Renji's room under the rising sun, and then gave instructions: "My lord has an order, asking you to look for opportunities to impeach Fu Yao."

After saying these words, the servant left.

Feng Renji sighed, sat in the room, took out his brush, and sketched on the paper.

He was drawing a map of the mountains and rivers of Da Qin, and he was wondering whether the chances of being caught were high if he abandoned his official position and ran away.

…………

After daybreak, Ying Zheng sent an order to all officials to make preparations and set off for Shangjun in the afternoon.

So, after breakfast, everyone was busy and started packing their luggage.

Originally, according to the distance, we should go to Fuyao's Beidi County first. However, Hu Hai rushed to Longxi in person and warmly invited Ying Zheng to go to Shang County first, and Ying Zheng agreed.

He agreed to go to Shangjun first, also hoping that someone could send a message to Fu Yao so that he could make preparations early and not be like Fusu, who made everything in a hurry.

Ying Zheng didn't know that Hu Hai had already selected many people to ambush on the road to Beidi County, specifically to intercept the messenger. Now Fu Yao still doesn't know anything.

In the afternoon, everyone was already on their way.

Including Mr. Fusu, they also left Longxi County and went to Shangjun.

The officials were talking a lot, and most of them felt that this test was over. All the gentlemen were going to follow His Majesty back to Xianyang.

As for whether the various policies in Longxi will change after Fusu leaves. Most people think that there will be political changes here.

After all... Master Fu Yao's ideas are very different from His Majesty's ideas.

Whether His Majesty was satisfied with Mr. Fusu's governance results, he did not say explicitly. But all the ministers had an idea.

They felt that if they imitated the imperial examination and graded Mr. Fusu, it would probably be sixty points.

There are no bright spots and no big mistakes. After all, Longxi County is relatively peaceful, with no people displaced and corrupt officials everywhere.

Fu Su and Chunyu Yue were riding in the same car.

He said uneasily: "Master, did my disciple fail to do a good job?"

Chunyu Yue shook his head: "You have done a very good job. Since ancient times, it has been difficult to conquer the world, and it is even more difficult to defend the world. It is already very good that Longxi County can spend more than half a year in peace during your first administration."

"At least, your results are better than Fu Yao's."
