Chapter 527

"What does Lord Feng mean?"

Li Zhen was made to feel somewhat blocked by Feng Quji's words.

He naturally knows that Imperial Prince Fusu is followed by a group of Confucian people.

But this group of Confucian people is only teaching Imperial Prince Fusu knowledge.

Because His Majesty doesn't like the Confucian school very much,

so this group of Confucian people hasn't completely entered the imperial court yet.

If it is really as Feng Quji said, Imperial Prince Fusu becomes the next Qin King,

I'm afraid the Confucian school will enter the imperial court in large numbers and replace various important positions.

"Why doesn't Lord Li set his sights on Imperial Prince Hu Hai?"

Feng Quji said.

Li Zhen, after hearing Feng Quji's words, was stunned for a moment.

"Imperial Prince Hu Hai doesn't have Imperial Prince Fusu's ability; he isn't valued by His Majesty at all."

"How can he become the next successor?"

Li Zhen originally thought Feng Quji's target was that group of Confucian people.

He intended to unite with himself to resolve that group of Confucian people.

Yet he didn't expect Feng Quji's target was actually the next Qin King.

"Lord Li, you must know that now His Majesty's body has slowly weakened."

"If he suddenly passes away one day, I'm afraid not even an imperial edict will be left behind."

"At that time, choosing which prince to become the successor isn't up to you and me to decide?"

Feng Quji reminded him.

You must know that Li Zhen is Zongzheng, specifically responsible for managing imperial clan affairs.

If Ying Zheng really left an imperial edict choosing the next successor, Li Zhen would definitely get the news.

As long as Li Zhen doesn't acknowledge it, then it can only be decided by the ministers.

This is Feng Quji's plan.

Li Zhen didn't expect Feng Quji to have this idea.

"This must not be; if discovered, this is a matter of losing one's head."

Li Zhen subconsciously intended to refuse.

Feng Quji's originally smiling eyes immediately flashed with a cold light.

"Lord Li."

"Are you really willing to wait until Imperial Prince Fusu becomes the next Qin King, and then have your own position slowly marginalized?"

Feng Quji reminded him...

"This is impossible; since I was able to reach this position, it's impossible to be squeezed out."

Li Zhen subconsciously retorted.

As long as you haven't made a mistake in officialdom, it's impossible to be squeezed out.

"Lord Li is perhaps still too young and doesn't know the darkness of officialdom at all."

"Why do you think Li Si died?"

Feng Quji suddenly threw the topic onto Li Si.

When he mentioned this problem, Li Zhen was indeed stunned.

Li Si's death still has no explanation to this day.

Ying Zheng, regarding Li Si's death, only casually said it was an assassination by an assassin.

But for a dignified minister to be assassinated and die in the imperial palace like this,

just thinking about it makes it seem somewhat impossible.

"Lord Feng, is there some inside story to this?"

A glimmer of curiosity flashed in Li Zhen's eyes.

"Lord Li, you must know that Li Si was His Majesty's favored minister."

"When he was favored, he was able to hold both the Left and Right Prime Minister positions in one person."

"But if he is not favored, or if he gets in His Majesty's way, what do you think his ending is?"

Feng Quji said with implication.

Actually, he was completely lying to Li Zhen.

Although he was also very surprised why Li Si died in the imperial palace,

but through his investigation during this period, he also guessed some things.

His Majesty seems to suspect Li Si was related to the events of five years ago.

That's why he summoned Li Si, Wang Jian, and others into the palace at 1.2.

As for why Wang Jian was able to return alive that night, Feng Quji also doesn't know.

But there is one point Feng Quji can be very sure of.

That is, Li Si's death must have something to do with His Majesty.

Hearing this inside story, Li Zhen's eyes widened again.

A kind of panic couldn't help but rise in his heart.

Sure enough, you gain His Majesty's appreciation and can dominate the entire court.

When you lose His Majesty's trust, you likely don't know when your death will descend.

"The favor on one's body is the hardest to predict."

"Why doesn't Lord Li grasp the opportunity in his own hands?"

"As long as you can sit in that position, even His Majesty will find it hard to shake you."

Feng Quji reminded him from the side.
