Ying Zheng, the most powerful man in the world, is sitting inside right now.
The chief eunuch paid his respects and said: "Your Majesty, Yushi Yi is waiting for orders outside the palace."
Ying Zheng looked at the memorial without raising his eyes and said casually: "Xuan him to come in."
The eunuch agreed and slowly withdrew.
After a dozen breaths, Yu Shiyi appeared in the hall.
Enter the main hall.
Yi immediately bowed and saluted: "I, Yi, see you, Your Majesty."
Ying Zheng did not raise his head and said indifferently: "How did the scholar gathering go?"
Yi hesitated for a moment and then said: "There were some turbulences along the way, but they have been resolved by Qin Luoheng. Now the gathering of scholars is going on as expected."
"Proceeding as normal?" Ying Zheng paused with the brush in his hand, frowned slightly, and said again: "Tell me carefully what happened in the middle."
Yizuo bowed and said: "No."
"The grand meeting was held, and the people of Xianyang welcomed it with joy."
"Today, all ninety-six scholars who were selected through review were present. As soon as Qin Luoheng arrived at Jique, someone started to make trouble."
"They accused Qin Luoheng of not being able to take on big responsibilities because of his identity, status, and knowledge."
"And Qin Luoheng broke it with one word."
Ying Zheng frowned slightly.
Yi said: "Qin Luoheng said that when others were thinking about destruction, he was the first to propose construction, which is why this gathering of scholars was held. He even bluntly said that destruction is always much simpler than construction."
"Destruction is always much easier than construction?" Ying Zheng's eyes showed a strange look, and he said with his forehead: "You can understand this truth at a young age, but it is not easy to be true. Just by saying this, it is enough to sit on a high platform."
"Where's the back?"
Yi cupped his hands and said, "Someone asked: Scholars make no distinctions in their choices, which leads to poor families not being poor and noble families not being expensive."
"How did Qin Luoheng reply?" Ying Zheng said.
Yi said: "Qin Luoheng replied: There is no distinction between high and low in learning, and there is no so-called nobility in Da Qin. The only ones officially recognized by Da Qin are family clans, that is, clan clans."
Ying Zheng smiled and said:
"He usually puts a lot of thought into it."
"It is true that the government of the Great Qin Dynasty did not recognize any nobles. The nobles of the Great Qin Dynasty were all executed when Lord Shang changed the law. However, after the unification of the world, the people of the six places still followed the concept of the three generations and continued to refer to those clans that had a certain amount of power.
Just for the nobility."
"The family's wisdom is the family's wisdom."
"Gates valve?"
"What is this called?"
A flash of displeasure flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, but he didn't pay too much attention. Then he seemed to think of something and chuckled: "Most of the people present today are from Qin. These scholars are all well-educated people. No matter how dissatisfied they are,
, I don’t even dare to argue, but he knows how to take advantage of the situation.”
Yi nodded and said:
"Your Majesty knows things like a god."
"Those scholars really didn't dare to argue."
"Then the scholars changed the topic and began to talk about political differences."
"How did Qin Luoheng answer?" Ying Zheng became interested and put down the brush in his hand.
Yi said: "Qin Luoheng said that Qin became strong with law and finally unified the world. This is enough to prove that law is the most suitable way to govern in the world. It is the best, so naturally there is no need to talk about it, and because Qin is the third
A dynasty that truly realizes great unification needs a new method of governance, so this is a grand meeting to govern."
"Great unification?" A strange look flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes, "That's all?"
Yi held his hand and saluted, but did not dare to say another word.
Ying Zheng frowned and said in a deep voice, "I asked you to say it. No matter what you say that is too outrageous, I will pardon you."
Yibai thanked him and said:
"Thank you for your forgiveness, Your Majesty."
"These scholars behind you...they actually started to attack His Majesty's personal morality."
Ying Zheng laughed loudly and said indifferently: "My personal ethics? Then I have to listen to it carefully. I also want to hear it. What are the areas that outside scholars accuse me of? You can say it, but I won't listen.
No swearing."
Yi quickly fell to his knees.
He leaned over and said:
"Your Majesty is wise."
"These scholars accused Your Majesty of wasting the people's resources and building palaces indiscriminately. They also accused Your Majesty of being indulged in luxury and licentiousness, allowing himself to enjoy the palace ladies of six countries. They also accused Your Majesty of being cruel and unkind, building roads and destroying fertile fields, blocking the mouths of the world, and having no knowledge of literature.
road."
Yi's voice became quieter and quieter.
Ying Zheng said disdainfully: "What do these pedantic scholars know? They can only see the surface debauchery and immorality. Why am I like this? With the vision of these pedantic scholars, I am afraid they will never understand."
"Am I here for my own bed?"
"These are necessary to prevent restoration and stabilize the frontier."
"They don't understand!"
"How did Qin Luoheng respond?"
Yi's body trembled even more violently, and he said in a trembling voice: "Qin Luoheng said that when judging a country, one should look at the gains and losses of major policies, rather than focusing on one's personal morality. Then he listed one of His Majesty's major policies.
Political affairs are all achievements that shine brightly in the annals of history.”
"It's just...it's just that Qin Luoheng said something that offended His Majesty. I don't know if he was complacent or because he couldn't express his feelings."
Ying Zheng said calmly: "What did he say?"
It is now mid-August, the end of the scorching summer heat. Although there is no bright sunshine today, Yi seems to have been exposed to the sun. The sweat on his forehead cannot stop dripping, and a pool of sweat has formed on the place where he bows his head.
Yi tremblingly said:
"He...he said that your Majesty has worked hard for most of his life, why can't he enjoy it?"
"I think Qin Luoheng just said it unintentionally."
"Your Majesty, please forgive me."
Ying Zheng's face suddenly darkened and he said coldly: "Did he really say that?"
"I will never dare to lie." Yi said.
Ying Zheng was silent for a while, then waved his hands and said, "What's behind? What else did he say?"
Seeing that the First Emperor was not angry, Yi An breathed a sigh of relief and said in a deep voice: "Later Qin Luoheng said that Great Qin was a unified dynasty and what Great Qin had done to achieve great unification. What he said were all the great policies implemented by His Majesty in recent years.
And no other scholar dares to deny it."
"Then the real discussion began."
Ying Zheng's expression softened slightly.
Yi paused for a moment and continued: "These scholars obviously have two minds. One of them even twisted the direction in a roundabout way. The others not only refused to stop, but instead followed his words and spoke loudly in Jique.
What they said was all for their own selfish purposes and had no thoughts for the world."
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Qin Luoheng stopped immediately when he noticed it."
"He directly expressed his inner ambition through verbal and written criticism, and bluntly said that the Qin Dynasty's ambition is to be conquered by all people in the world."
"He even asked these scholars, what kind of world do they want to hand over to future generations?"
"When the people heard about it, they all clapped their hands and cheered."
Ying Zheng's eyes became colder and colder, and he said in a cold voice: "Do the people of Xianyang agree with what he said?"
Yi also noticed something strange.
He said in a tight voice:
"The reaction of the people in the city seems to be somewhat strong."
"Maybe I heard it wrong."
"I will go down and check carefully later."
Ying Zheng glanced at Yi coldly.
Fluttering his sleeves he said:
"No."
"I don't need to worry about this yet."
"Most of the scholars who participated in the grand meeting had counter-intentions. Even though Qin Luoheng said that the Qin Dynasty was a paradise for kings and kings, they were still unmoved. How did these scholars respond?"
Yi's expression completely changed.
He lowered his head and his body was shaking.
"explain!"
Yi leaned down to the ground, his face turned pale.
Wei Wei said:
"There was an ancient old man outside Ji Que who suddenly raised his voice and asked Qin Luoheng whether what he said about protecting all the people in the world was... the ambition of the Qin Dynasty or the ambition of an individual."
"How did Qin Luoheng reply?" Ying Zheng said coldly.
Yi said: "Qin Luoheng said it is a personal ambition."
"Then what did the old man say?" Ying Zheng's expression became increasingly cold.
Yi took a deep breath and said, "The old man said that Qin Luoheng can't make the decision. The one who can really make the decision is...his majesty in Xianyang Palace, not Qin Luoheng!"
"I am guilty!"
Finished.
Yi uses his head to grab the ground.
The fear on his face could not be concealed.
Ying Zheng's face suddenly darkened, but he finally calmed down.
He looked at Yi with gloomy eyes and said indifferently: "Don't be so nervous. I asked you to say it. Why are you so nervous? Am I that man-eating tiger and wolf?"
Yi tremblingly said:
"I absolutely did not mean this."
"It's just that the weather has been too hot recently. I suffered from the heat for a while, so I couldn't stop sweating."
"I...I have lost my manners in front of His Majesty."
"Your Majesty, please punish me."
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, withdrew his gaze and said, "How did Qin Luoheng reply?"
Yi said: "Qin Luoheng took the scholars from all over the world as examples and said that this was indeed his own opinion, but it may not be able to become the consensus of the people in the world. Then he based on his personal experience and began to understand these scholars.
, moved with emotion, but in the end Qin Luoheng advocated ending this event."
"It's just retreat as advancement." Ying Zheng said coldly.
Finished.
Ying Zheng seemed to have noticed something, and there was a hint of doubt in his eyes.
He carefully recalled the events of this event, and the look of surprise in his eyes became more and more intense, and he asked: "Who is that old man who is pointing directly at me?"
Yi's face turned pale and he said solemnly:
"The minister made an oversight."
"There are too many people coming to Xianyang this time, and this person was not selected into the top 100 celebrities. I came in a hurry just now, and I haven't found out this person's identity yet."
"Your Majesty, please punish me."
Ying Zheng pondered for a moment, shook his head and said:
"never mind."
"Since I allowed them to come, let's forget it this time."
Ying Zheng did not ask about anything related to the grand event, but asked about something else.
he asked:
"What books has Qin Luoheng read in the past few months?"
Yi pondered for a while and said slowly: "Qin Luoheng has indeed made a lot of preparations for this grand event and read a lot of books, but most of them are books by various scholars."
"Philosophers?" Ying Zheng frowned and then asked: "What are the Legalist books?"
Yi was stunned.
He frowned and thought for a while.
Not sure:
"If I remember correctly, Qin Luoheng has borrowed the Legalist classics "Book of Shang Jun", "Book of Laws", "Shenzi", "Guanzi" and "Shenzi"."
"Which books have you read the longest?" Ying Zheng asked again.
Yi said in a deep voice: "The most popular one is "Shang Jun Shu", followed by "Shenzi", "Shenzi", and then the "Fajing" and "Guanzi"."
Ying Zheng slightly raised his forehead.
Fushou said:
"I understand, please go down."
"I beg you to retreat." Yi responded quickly and slowly retreated.
Within the main hall.
Once again, only Ying Zheng was left.
Ying Zheng sat at the banquet, a gloom flashing in his eyes.
Cold voice said:
""Shenzi", "Shenzi"?"
"The three schools of Legalism, 'Shi, Shu, Dharma', have you understood 'Shi, Shu, Fa' so quickly? You can even learn and use it now. It's not that your talent is not high, but you just don't know "The Book of Shang Jun". You
How much have you learned?"
"I just want you to understand the law."
"You gave me a big 'surprise'!"
"If you watched "Han Feizi"..."
