Chapter 308: Wangs words are like silk, and his words are like fiber!
Fusu was completely unaware of his fault and said sternly: "Because of one family's mistakes, hundreds of families in the world are implicated, and all the books in the world are burned. Isn't it making a big deal out of a molehill? Isn't it an act of chaos to the country?"
Li Si's face became increasingly deserted.
Gongshou Road:
"Your Majesty's power lies in your insight and accuracy of decision-making, never in your brutality. In the more than thirty years since your Majesty has been on the throne, have you ever killed someone by mistake? Have you ever made a mistake in making a major decision?"
"Of course not." Fusu said.
Li Sidao: "It is precisely because of this that your Majesty's majesty can make the world tremble. Your Majesty never convicts people easily. This is the emperor's nature and the rule of law."
"Nowadays, the Confucian scholars are plotting to restore the government and slander the government. If I go and express my pardon, not to mention that Your Majesty will not agree, and the law does not allow it. Instead of complaining that I am taking advantage of personal interests and not knowing how to adapt, my mother would rather say that I am of the same mind as Your Majesty.
, are equally loyal to the rule of law.”
"How can I do anything that breaks the law?"
"This matter cannot be changed!"
Fusu's expression turned cold and he said, "So, the burning of books cannot be changed?"
"Exactly." Li Si replied directly.
"Fusu bid farewell."
Finished.
Fusu walked out the door angrily.
Li Si sincerely cupped his hands and said, "Please wait, eldest son. The eldest son is the pillar of the country, and your majesty has always been interested in nurturing him. I would like to advise you, and I hope you will understand."
"The Qin Dynasty established the country with the rule of law, but the young master used good words to mess up the law. This deviated from the new policy of the Great Qin. I advised the young master to give up studying Confucian books and instead study Legalist classics such as Shang Jun, so as to forge an iron will.
....”
Before Li Si finished speaking, Fusu left with a flick of his sleeves.
See the situation.
Li Si looked at Fusu's retreating figure and sighed heavily.
There was silence for a long time.
An uneasy atmosphere enveloped the vibrant political hall.
After all, Fusu is the most likely young master to succeed to the throne at the moment. If he holds such a disagreement, how can it affect anything in the short term?
Repeated political behavior is a taboo in the world!
Li Si stood there and sighed for a long time.
Not long after Fusu left the Prime Minister's Mansion, he received an urgent edict.
The person who came to announce the edict was Meng Yi, who was a good friend of Fusu. The emperor's edict contained only a few words.
"Fusu does not understand the general trend, fails to observe the overall situation, persists in his own opinions, and disrupts the state affairs. He is extremely ignorant. I have now given Fusu the post of supervisor of Surabaya and will take up the post immediately after leaving the capital."
After hearing the contents of the edict, Fusu's expression changed slightly.
I could only helplessly smile.
He felt very unexpected at first, but then he felt that it was expected. After the edict was written, he only asked in a low voice: "May I ask Mr. Meng Zuojian, is my father still angry with me?"
Meng Yi cupped his hands and said, "How dare you ask the eldest son to speak in the hall."
Hear the words.
Fusu's mind condensed, and he immediately handed over his hand and politely let Meng Yi into the main hall. Then Meng Yi ordered the servants and maids to exit the hall, and ordered the guards he brought around to guard the corridor and not allow anyone to approach. Then he sat down next to Fusu.
In front of the big eucalyptus opposite.
"Eldest Young Master, Your Majesty is very angry."
Meng Yi only said one sentence and stopped immediately.
Fusumu sighed softly, his expression full of desolation and depression.
Meng Yi was silent for a moment, then he cupped his hands and said in a low voice: "My eldest son, please listen to my words and stop being stubborn. Your Majesty has already issued a decree, how can you easily take it back?"
"Master, please hurry to Surabaya County later."
He helped Sumuran's forehead, stood up on the eucalyptus seat, turned around and walked out. Meng Yi stepped forward and stopped him: "Elder master, don't be anxious. It's not too late for me to finish what I have to say."
Only then did Fusu stop.
Meng Yi cupped his hands and said:
"My eldest son, I tell you the truth."
"This time when the eldest son comes back, he should not be discouraged from burning books."
"And the young master seems to be still feeling sorry for himself. This is enough to prove that the young master is not aware of his mistakes. The young master's fault does not lie in his political opinion itself, nor in whether he opposes book burning, but in interfering with state affairs after the decision has been made!"
"Your Majesty recalled the young master to return to the court this time."
"When Your Majesty asked the princes for their opinions, the prince made it clear that he should serve in counties and counties. At this time, he had clearly drawn a clear line with Confucianism, and then he supported Confucianism. Isn't this a self-contradiction?"
"Time and momentum!"
"The young master's decision at that time was not forced by the imperial meeting, nor was it forced by His Majesty's majestic pressure. This is the general trend of the world and the overall situation of the New Deal!"
"Young Master could understand it then, why can't you understand it now?"
"The recent civil war crackdown is no longer just about enforcing the law, but a battle between restoration and non-restoration. This is a major battle concerning the life and death of the country. How can we be lenient at all? And who in the world can say, Your Majesty?
The decision must be wrong?"
"In terms of talent, ability, perseverance, insight, and determination, His Majesty has already advanced beyond the past and present. Only after the edict is implemented will everything be known. But everything in the past has proven that there has been no problem with His Majesty's decision-making.
Naturally, the officials won’t have any doubts?”
"and......"
"Your Majesty has indeed shown utmost benevolence and righteousness towards Confucianism."
"It has always been Confucianism that was responsible for the Qin Dynasty, not the Qin Dynasty that was responsible for the Confucianism. My eldest son, you insist on opposing the burning of "Poems", "Books" and books on political affairs by various scholars, but can you say that Confucianism really did not use this to insinuate the government?
"
Fusu's eyelids twitched.
Naturally, he couldn't say the word "can".
Meng Yi continued:
"This moment is like a battlefield. Once a military order is decided, it must be followed by the three armies. No objections are allowed. Master, put yourself in your shoes. After the courtiers repeatedly made decisions, there was one person who stubbornly objected again and again. And this person is not an ordinary minister, but
He is His Majesty's eldest son, what will your attitude be?"
"The past."
"Your Majesty has high hopes for the young master."
"I have emphasized to the young master many times that we need to have a strategy that has an insight into the overall situation. It can be said that we have good intentions, but the young master always disagrees, and even goes his own way. He has no thoughts about the world at all, and does not think about everything. He only has his own stubbornness. Why don't you think about it?
Is this true?"
Fusu was stunned.
He held his hands tightly, feeling extremely upset in his heart. After hearing Meng Yi's words, he suddenly realized his problem. He shouldn't be stubborn at this time. If he could really follow his father's teachings, he would have the overall situation.
Think about it, how can you make your father furious?
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Fusu is already regretful and heartbroken.
Who is the eldest son?
The first pillar of the family tribe!
Instead of helping his father to solve his problems, he made his father particularly embarrassed and even openly challenged his majesty.
How can a person be embarrassed by such an eldest son?
Fusu Nannan stood there, facing the direction of Xianyang Palace, kneeling solemnly, and kowtowed heavily. His forehead was stained with blood. Then he stood up tremblingly, raised his hands and said loudly: "Fusu is unfilial and talks about kindness.
From today onwards, I will study the law carefully and never dare to disobey my father's teachings."
"Father, my son has gone..."
Finished.
Fusu saluted Meng Yi, turned around and left resolutely.
Its tall voice and shadow soon disappeared in the flickering lights of the hall.
Meng Yi stood tall, looking at Fusu's change, and nodded happily, then left the hall and returned to Xianyang Palace to resume his life.
Enter the palace.
Meng Yi bowed his head and said seriously: "Your Majesty, the eldest son has realized his mistake and regretted it. He has got up and returned to Surabaya."
Ying Zheng said coldly:
"That stubborn donkey won't listen."
"Even if he listens to it, he can only care about it for a while. When he really pays attention to the law, it is not too late to repent after he realizes his mistake."
Meng Yi hesitated and said: "Your Majesty, it is not a bad thing for the eldest son to have his own opinion when things happen."
Ying Zheng said indifferently:
"If he really insisted on his opinion, I wouldn't blame him, but he obviously didn't do it. In the same situation, if it were another person, that person would either completely give up Confucianism from the beginning, or try to protect Confucianism from beginning to end.
Even if I really carry out a cultural purge, it will always be the same."
"But did Fusu do it?"
"No!"
"What Fusu lacks is this overall view."
"He only has narrow thoughts of kindness!"
"He doesn't realize his own problems, and he can't find his own problems. Everything he does is based on his heart, and he doesn't think about it at all. Maybe it was a mistake for me to have high hopes for Fusu.
!”
Hear the words.
Meng Yi's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, the eldest son has already changed his mind. I believe that if you give him some time, he will be able to live up to your majesty's high expectations."
Ying Zheng shook his head and said nothing more.
See the situation.
Meng Yi resigned knowingly.
Walking out of the palace, Meng Yi had a worried look in his eyes.
Fusu's performance in the past few days undoubtedly disappointed the First Emperor.
Moreover, through this "cultural purge", many problems in Fusu were exposed. The key point is that Fusu has little understanding of the system.
Meng Yi also felt helpless about this.
When the empire was created, the regulations clearly stipulated that the order was "Zhi" and the order was "Edict"!
There is quite a difference between the two.
But Fusu didn't realize it at all.
This is a very serious cognitive problem, which proves that Fusu was not familiar with the Qin system and even did not understand the most basic regulations. This was a huge political mistake.
The king's words are like silk, and their coming out is like fiber!
The king's words are as small as silk, but when they are spread throughout the world, they will expand dramatically.
This expresses the prudence of the king's decrees.
It has been more than two hundred years since the Qin Dynasty was founded. During these hundreds of years, it has already developed an extremely rich political background, and has already reached the level of proficiency in handling complex national affairs.
There are so many major events in the world, and the king may not always act in the form of orders. There must be many degree differences that need to be carefully grasped. Therefore, when the empire was created, the emperor's instructions were specially divided into two forms.
That is, ‘Zhi’ and ‘Edict’.
‘System’ is a loose directive, and the implementing officials have the flexibility to handle it as appropriate.
‘Edict’ is a mandatory instruction, and the implementing official must comply with it.
His Majesty gave Prime Minister Li Si's book-burning memorial with "Zhi Yue", which means that it can be done, not "Chao Yue", it must be done. There was a lot of painstaking effort in making the distinction, but Fusu didn't notice it at all.
No wonder the First Emperor was so angry.
Meng Yi sighed softly:
"Eldest Young Master, you are really wrong this time."
"His Majesty seems to have issued an order to burn books, but in fact it is a big thunder but a small rain. It is mainly based on deterrence. Therefore, the relaxed attitude adopted from the beginning is only aimed at Confucianism and will not be easily implicated.
Hundreds of other stores and places.”
"Why don't you, eldest son, notice all your majesty's painstaking efforts?"
