Chapter 3 Chapter Two

There are many people who only qualify as legends after their death.And Han Fei was already a legend when he was still alive.His genius, his temperament, his life experience, his thinking, and even his stuttering, mixed together a magical and lofty magic power, which made the contemporaries look up and be fascinated.Li Si had been classmates with Han Fei for three years, and they got along day and night, and the feelings were still strong.Even compared with the prestige teacher Xunzi, the young Han Fei's brilliance is not much less.Being able to have a classmate like Han Fei was indeed beneficial to Li Si's growth at first, but later, it would turn into a hindrance and harm.If Li Si wants to achieve a unique self, he must get rid of Han Fei's influence. Otherwise, he can only remain Han Fei's vassal and younger brother, and this is unacceptable to the proud Li Si Ning.So he chose to stay away and grow up alone in Xianyang.

However, Han Fei was always a knot in Li Si's heart, and he couldn't get around it.Han Fei is Li Si's friend, but most of the time, Li Si would rather regard Han Fei as his enemy, as the whip of his life and the wings of his dreams.Now he is a guest minister of the state of Qin, with such achievements, no one under Xunzi's family can match him.However, he would always ask himself: If Han Fei saw him now, how would he evaluate him? Seeing Li Si's surprise, Zheng Guo smiled and said, "If it wasn't for Mr. Han Fei's instruction, how could it be a coincidence that Mr. Zheng found Mr. Zheng? At that time, Mr. Zheng was seeking help from Prime Minister Lu Buwei, so he couldn't take care of himself, so why did he bother to find Mr. Referrals? As for the gift of money, Zheng is just a plumber, even if he wants to help Mr., how can he get such a large sum of money?"

Li Si was stunned for a while, and then asked Zheng Guodao: "When Li Si's wife and children were in Cai in the state of Chu, someone sent money every year to help them. Could it be that Mr. Han Fei did it?" Zheng Guo nodded, and said: "Mr. Han Fei's eyes are high in the world, and he has never treated anyone lightly in his life, but he highly respects him, thinking that if a rare talent is lost in the grass and trees, it will be a pity for the world, so you Order Zheng Guowei to lay the steps in front of Mr. Ren, and order Mr. Renwei to settle down in the back. Mr. has today, and he will live up to your son's high expectations."

Li Si had mixed feelings.He didn't expect Han Fei to be so attentive to him.If Zheng Guo hadn't been imprisoned, he would probably continue to be kept in the dark.Why did Han Fei treat him like this?Is it just because of the relationship of friends?Li Si couldn't know.Li Si also heard that Han Fei was very unsatisfactory in South Korea. Although he is a high-ranking man and a member of the royal family, he has never been reused by the King of Han. In this case, why didn't he leave South Korea and come to Qin to seek development? ? Although Li Si was emotional, he quickly calmed down. The most important thing right now is to deal with Zheng Guo's problem properly.Li Sidao: "Master Han Fei's kindness will be repaid later. This is the time to repay Brother Zheng. Li Si will do his best to get Brother Zheng out of this cage."

Zheng Guodao: "Mr. Zheng is not worth saving. Mr. must save me, save the canal. Zheng Guo's life is cheap, and his death is not a pity. It's just ten years of hard work. Ten thousand people put their lives to work, digging soil and leveling fields, cutting through mountains and rocks. Success is easy and near. Once Zheng Guo dies, I fear that no one can follow him, and all previous efforts will be wasted. Isn’t it a pity! Zheng Guo is not greedy for life, and only wishes to wait until the day when the canal is completed before dying. There is no regret in this life.” Li Sidao: "Li Si has doubts, and he must wait for Brother Zheng to clarify himself, so that he can be rescued. Brother Zheng said that he was framed for South Korea, or is it true? Tell me the truth." In Li Si It seems that Zheng Guo was probably wronged, because Zheng Guo's project was approved by Lu Buwei.The purpose of bringing down the state of Zheng is Lu Buwei.

Zheng Guo lowered his head and hesitated.This answer is critical to his life, so he naturally needs to be cautious.Although he was tortured, he always gritted his teeth and refused to plead guilty.The point is, can he trust Li Si?Can he tell the truth to Li Si?After a long time, Zheng Guo raised his head, looked at Li Si, and said, "It's true." Li Si's face became serious, and said: "Since this is the case, Li Si has his own place. From now on, you are not allowed to talk to others. I will come back tomorrow." Li Si bid farewell to Zheng Guo, called the jailer, and told him not to speak to Zheng Guo again. torture.The country's most important criminals, in case something goes wrong, it is beyond your responsibility.Ting Wei's side, I have informed myself.

On the way, Li Si asked Meng Tian who knew about Zheng Guo?In today's words, it means which level has been notified.If the poke is not high enough, maybe it can be suppressed and not reported.Meng Tian said: "The dossier has been sent to Lord Changping and Lord Changwen of Xiangguo." Li Si's heart felt cold, and he had been stabbed to the level of Xiangguo, which could not be concealed no matter what. At night, Li Si still wandered in the courtyard, unable to sleep.His thoughts were not only on Zheng Guo, but with the gray sky above his head, he was thinking deeper and further.

Laplace Zeng said: As long as the initial conditions and boundary conditions of the birth of the universe are given, he can even calculate the evolution of the entire universe, whether it is past, present or future.Li Si is not Laplace, he can't figure out the vicissitudes of the political situation, and most of the time, he can only rely on his sixth sense.His sixth sense told him that ever since Lao Ai was defeated and the clan came to power, there had been an atmosphere, a dangerous atmosphere of xenophobia, pervading the political arena of Qin.All it takes is a catalyst for this air to evolve into a political havoc on an unprecedented scale.And Zheng Guo, as a foreigner, intervening in the Qin State and seeking the interests of South Korea, is exactly the negative model that the clans dream of.If the clan was allowed to make a big fuss about Zheng Guo, then Li Si would also become a fish on the anvil and be slaughtered.Therefore, to a certain extent, saving Zheng Guo is saving himself.

However, there was not much time left for Li Si.From now on, he must race against time and fight against fate.Li Si gasped to the sky, feeling uneasy in his heart, but behind him, his wife and children had already fallen asleep.
