Chapter 414: Those Who Are Clever!
"His Majesty the Emperor really cares about you!"
In Zhao Gao's mansion, he held a cup of tea, watched the blue smoke rising, and whispered to himself.
His mansion was very luxurious. Perhaps because Zhao Gao suffered a lot when he was a child, after he became successful, he pursued extreme enjoyment. His food, drink, and use were all extremely luxurious.
Perhaps it should be said, how could he afford such huge consumption with his salary?
Here, we have to mention the Net.
With the help of the power of the Net, Zhao Gao didn't have to spend a penny of his own money. The people of the Net had an improper origin, and an improper origin meant it was easier to get money with an improper origin. Sometimes, he only needed one sentence, and the people of the Net would come to honor and serve him.
Just like the tea in his hand at this moment, it is the best tea, usually used to be offered to Ying Zheng. Because of the Net, Zhao Gao was able to intercept a part and enjoy it privately.
As long as no one finds out, no one will know about this.
And because of the Net, it is extremely difficult to find out about this.
At this moment, what Zhao Gao cares most about is Ying Zheng appointing Su Xuan as the National Teacher 253. He originally thought that after he complained about Su Xuan, although Ying Zheng still trusted Su Xuan on the surface, secretly, he would be wary of Su Xuan. After all, Ying Zheng is now the First Emperor, the most noble person in the whole world. Above Ying Zheng's head, there is no need for such a person as Su Xuan who plays god.
As a result, he was wrong.
Ying Zheng directly appointed Su Xuan as the National Teacher, which made Zhao Gao unable to understand.
He never imagined that Ying Zheng would do such a thing. His false accusation of Su Xuan not only did not make Ying Zheng wary of Su Xuan, but Ying Zheng even expressed his trust in Su Xuan with practical actions.
Appointing the National Teacher is one.
The second is naturally because those officials from the Confucian School who stopped Su Xuan from becoming the National Teacher were dismissed.
They had just said righteously a few days ago that Su Xuan was not worthy of becoming the National Teacher. As a result, Ying Zheng's speed was faster than settling accounts after the autumn. A few days later, their official positions were dismissed.
As for why Zhao Gao knew that this was Ying Zheng venting his anger for Su Xuan?
The reason is that the evidence of these people was collected by the Net!
In this process, Zhao Gao originally thought about letting the Net disobey openly and secretly. Even if these people were really not clean and had deficient private morality, with the means of the Net, they could also be made clean and have no problems. But after thinking about it, he gave up.
If you look at the whole world, the strength of the Net is stronger, but it is located in the imperial capital Xianyang.
In Xianyang, there is another organization called the Shadow Secret Guard. They lurk in the dark and are the personal guards of the Son of Heaven. In Xianyang City, they possess extremely powerful energy. Even without the help of the Net, relying on the Shadow Secret Guard alone, Ying Zheng can also find those things.
The Net has no relatives or friends with those people, so it is really not worth taking this risk to help them hide their crimes.
"However, even if His Majesty the Emperor appoints you as the National Teacher and the Yin-Yang School indirectly becomes the state religion, you won't be proud for too long!"
Zhao Gao's tone changed again, and he appeared extremely confident.
Although Ying Zheng's trust in Su Xuan was beyond his expectations, he believed that as long as the Net was still in his hands, he would sooner or later find evidence of Su Xuan's crimes and pull Su Xuan, the National Teacher, off his horse. *** ### CHAPTER 673
It is easy to dodge an open spear, but hard to guard against a hidden arrow!
The Net is the arrow hidden in the dark.
How should Su Xuan dodge it?
The National Teacher's Mansion is located in Xianyang City. It is a luxurious mansion built by Ying Zheng for Su Xuan after he appointed him as the National Teacher.
Because he became the National Teacher, Su Xuan was not convenient to live in the Yin-Yang School, so he moved here directly. At the same time, he also looked at the layout of this mansion. Ying Zheng considered it very thoughtfully. In this mansion, alchemy rooms, secret rooms for closed-door cultivation, etc., were all available.
Over the years, Ying Zheng's grasp of Su Xuan's character was not extremely thorough, but it was considered to be 80% or 90%.
He knew Su Xuan's temperament very well. Su Xuan did not like enjoyment, nor did he have any special hobbies.
The thing he liked to do most was to stay at home and practice. Perhaps it was because of Su Xuan's serious attitude toward cultivation that he could reach this point and practice to such a realm.
After visiting the mansion, Su Xuan said to Yan Yan Lingji beside him: "At this moment, the most depressed person is probably Zhao Gao!"
"Why?"
Yan Yan Lingji wore a vermilion brocade robe, which covered her graceful figure. She stood quietly beside Su Xuan, vaguely like when Su Xuan first came to the Qin State. At that time, only Yan Yan Lingji accompanied Su Xuan.
"He set a trap some time ago, intending to introduce my Yin-Yang School into the trap, so as to alienate me and Ying Zheng. As a result, in a turn, Ying Zheng directly appointed me as the National Teacher, which is a direct declaration that his alienation plan failed. If I were Zhao Gao, after so many subordinates died and did not play a corresponding role, I would also become very depressed."
Su Xuan explained to Yan Yan Lingji.
Yan Yan Lingji also understood why Su Xuan would say such a sentence.
"In this way, he should indeed be depressed." Yan Yan Lingji nodded in approval and asked Su Xuan: "Although I don't know why Zhao Gao suddenly targeted you, do you intend to let him go like this?"
Yan Yan Lingji was very curious. She was the person who had been by Su Xuan's side for the longest time, and she also witnessed what Su Xuan did in the Han State.
Back in the Han State, Su Xuan was very vengeful. Bai Bai Yifei provoked him, he killed Bai Bai Yifei directly; Ji Ji Wuye offended him, he killed Ji Ji Wuye in public, which can be described as interpreting the four words "happy revenge" to the extreme.
Now that Zhao Gao provoked Su Xuan, does Su Xuan intend to let him go like this?
Even if Zhao Gao is the Zhongche Zhongche Fuling, but the Zhongche Zhongche Fuling is just a nice name. This official position is actually not an important position, just a groom leader. He is respected by the hundred officials only because he is closer to Ying Zheng and can talk to Ying Zheng directly, which makes the hundred officials a little wary. But in terms of the relationship with Ying Zheng, who can compare with Su Xuan?
Su Xuan was appointed as the National Teacher by Ying Zheng, which is a teacher of a country. If combined with the fact that Su Xuan taught Ying Zheng the way of cultivation, he can even be called a teacher of the emperor, a teacher of the emperor!
