Chapter 369: If you commit your own evil, you will not live!
In the spacious and bright royal chariot, an important Umrah meeting was being held.
Ying Zheng was wearing ordinary clothes and sitting behind the imperial desk. Although his hair and beard were gradually turning gray and his body was much thinner than before, he was not listless or tired.
Li Si, Hu Wujing, Feng Jie and others were present solemnly.
Ying Zheng said: "Now that we have decided to pay attention, we still need an overall countermeasure."
Li Sidao: "Confucianism is stubborn and incompetent. It has repeatedly resisted New Deal laws and regulations, and its misdeeds are known to both the government and the public. Confucianism has long been beyond redemption. I suggest that from now on, the book burning order will continue to be implemented nationwide, except for the national collection of books.
, no one is allowed to keep poems and books privately."
"Order officials from all over the country to conduct strict searches. Those who dare to hide poems, books, and criticize the New Deal will be beheaded and abandoned in the market. Anyone involved in plotting private scholars will be exterminated. Officials who fail to report them will be punished with the same crime. All private scholars will be sentenced to tattoos.
Hard labor!”
"Those who are led by Confucians will be killed!!!"
"If people want to learn literature, they must take officials as their teachers and the law as their teachings!"
These words were like the autumn wind blowing through the forest, making everyone feel horrified. The previous killings had already shocked everyone, but now Li Si was killing everyone. This was completely to uproot Confucianism and not give Confucianism any chance of survival.
Chance.
Cruel and creepy.
"Do you have any objections?" Just when everyone was stunned, Ying Zheng's question seemed to come from the sky, waking everyone up instantly.
Hu Wujing said:
"I think what the Prime Minister said is too damning."
"I advocate dealing with Confucians, but I dare not agree to massacre Confucians."
"Since ancient times, the book trade has been in a bad mood. Nowadays, Confucian private schools are spread all over the country. If we follow the Prime Minister's words, I am afraid that countless people will be imprisoned, and local officials are not aware of it, let alone how many people there are. Such punishment will only stir up anger.
Greater public dissatisfaction.”
"I advocate that only Confucians should be dealt with."
"For the students involved, we can be more liberal. In my opinion, even if the Confucianists follow the nobles of the Six Nations, they are probably just borrowing the power of the nobles of the Six Nations, and they do not want to be completely tied to the nobles of the Six Nations."
"The Prime Minister's countermeasures have passed!"
"Furthermore, for thousands of years in China, there have been almost no revolutionaries, rebels, rioters, or regicides who were scholars. How could such scholars make the court feel like it was facing a formidable enemy? Furthermore, the Warring States Period travelers spread all over the world and spoke widely.
Kyushu, but who has really brought down a country?"
"I believe that Confucianism should be severely punished, but its orthodoxy must still be preserved."
"In this way, we can show that our great Qin is compatible with a huge number of people."
"This is the best policy!"
Li Si refuted:
"Pedantic opinion."
"It is true that great events in the world are not caused by scholars, but they are caused by scholars. If there are no scholars, rebellion or revolution will fail ten times out of ten. Scholars will cause chaos in the country. The damage they cause is not their conduct but their noise.
, causing trouble."
"An ant in a long embankment, a worm in a building, and a scholar's nonsense!"
"Why did the nobles of the Six Kingdoms spend a lot of manpower, material and financial resources to help Confucianism, expand the influence of Confucianism, and expand the right to speak of Confucianism? It is precisely because the nobles of the Six Kingdoms know very well the dangers of scholars."
"If a scholar has the intention to disrupt the government, he will definitely cause trouble."
"Words can cause chaos, and chaos can destroy a country!!!"
"Feng Chang has been holding on to the scroll for a long time, but he didn't see Confucius killing Shaozheng Mao?"
"What about Confucius, a scholar? Why did he want to put Shaozheng Mao to death in the first place?"
"It is precisely because he knows the dangers of words. If Confucianism cannot be used by the Qin Dynasty, it will be used by the rebellion. Confucianism has widely opened private schools in local areas. In time, these students will become educated, and a large number of them will become the backbone of the anti-Qin movement."
"Such abominable things, if not severely punished, will lead to endless disasters!"
"As ministers who govern the country, how can we mess up the great government with mere benevolence? My suggestion is to clean up the filth, eliminate the beetles, and get rid of the black sheep."
"If we just want to show our compatibility and listen to people's words and deeds about restoration, wouldn't this be a real mistake for the country and the people?"
"Nowadays, a large number of insects, ants, snakes, and rats have spawned in the territory of Daqin. We don't want to get rid of these insects, ants, snakes, and rats. We only want to cover it up with some branches and leaves. Isn't this deceiving ourselves and others?"
"My suggestions will indeed make the place flow into seas of blood and tears into rivers, but compared to the mountains of corpses in the Warring States Period, it will undoubtedly be much better. Some things must be resolved before the situation completely deteriorates, otherwise there will be endless troubles."
"Compared to the so-called benevolent government in vain, I am more willing to use the so-called infamy to exchange for the long-term peace of the Qin Dynasty."
"Well said!" Ying Zheng smiled faintly, "The same principles are tolerated, but different principles are not tolerated. Since Qin and Confucianism are not compatible, why do I have to make all kinds of trade-offs and concessions for the so-called false reputation?"
"Nowadays, there are frequent troubles in the world. If you treat Confucianism lightly in order not to intensify the conflicts, isn't this deliberately condoning it? The Qin Dynasty cannot tolerate these muddy waters, nor can it tolerate these insects, ants, snakes and rats. The Confucianists have chosen to turn their backs on the Qin Dynasty.
He should be punished."
"I will fight a war against restoration!!!"
Li Sidao: "Your Majesty is wise."
After hearing this, the other officials did not speak again.
Ying Zhengdao:
"Confucian scholars are all over the world. It is not easy to capture them in one fell swoop. Moreover, they are very close to the nobles of the six countries. With mutual protection, it will be even more difficult to capture them, but the court still cannot sit idly by and ignore them."
"As the saying goes, to catch the thief first, catch the king."
"The Confucian school is headed by Confucius. After the last escape, some Confucian scholars chose to remain anonymous, and some returned to Confucius's old city. Since the Confucianists are determined to oppose Qin, I naturally cannot tolerate the existence of Confucius's old city."
Ying Zheng thought for a long time and finally became firm.
"Burn it!!!"
In fact, Confucius did not receive much respect during his lifetime. Until the end of the Warring States Period, he was still just a great scholar who was almost forgotten by the mainstream of the world because of his restoration ideas. He did not have any sacred halo, but this was only for other schools of thought and Confucian scholars.
, Confucius’s old wall is a belief.
Many Confucian scholars voluntarily spent time, money and life to maintain it.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! After Confucius died, Confucian disciples from various countries went to Mr. Cai with trees from their countries. Now they have gathered into a unique grove outside Confucius's tomb. People at that time said
The tomb of Confucius is called Queli.
Confucianism has broken with the imperial court.
The imperial court wanted to completely destroy anything related to Confucianism.
Only in this way can Confucians be deterred to the greatest extent, and Confucians can truly feel fear and fear.
Li Sidao said: "I suggest sending Tingwei Zuojian Meng Yi to go."
Ying Zheng closed his eyes slightly and said coldly: "Come here, summon Qin Luoheng."
Hear the words.
Everyone looked slightly strange.
During this period, they could naturally see that the First Emperor was close to Qin Luoheng, but the Confucian matter was of great importance. Was it inappropriate to leave the matter to Qin Luoheng?
Li Sidao:
"Your Majesty, I am not questioning Qin Shangshu Ling's ability. It's just that Qin Shangshu Ling has never been a deacon and has no relevant experience. I think it is inappropriate to leave this matter to Qin Luoheng."
"Besides."
"Qin Shangshu Ling was a doctor in the past and worked with Confucian scholars in the doctor's academy. I think Qin Shangshu Ling should avoid this matter appropriately."
Ying Zhengdao:
"It doesn't matter."
"I don't believe he dares to show favoritism."
Li Si's face was sluggish, he opened his mouth, and finally said nothing.
The other courtiers looked at each other with a hint of surprise in their eyes. They naturally knew that the First Emperor trusted Qin Luoheng, and that Qin Luoheng had saved the First Emperor's life and was indeed worthy of the First Emperor's trust. But was the First Emperor's closeness a bit too much?
Already?
However, although they were very puzzled, no one dared to ask.
soon.
Qin Luoheng arrived outside the imperial chariot.
After the eunuch made an announcement, he was able to enter the imperial chariot.
When he first entered the house and saw so many courtiers, Qin Luoheng's heart trembled. He knew that something might have happened again.
He said respectfully: "Your Majesty, Qin Luoheng, is here to see you."
Ying Zheng bowed his head slightly and raised his hand slightly. The eunuchs around him immediately understood and handed the memorial to Qin Luoheng. Qin Luoheng took it, looked at it for a few times, and frowned.
Ying Zhengdao: "The nature of Confucianism is hard to change. Confucius left his post without authorization and fled the country. He held the whole family hostage without any thought of repentance. The moral principles of monarch and ministers were all lost. When he came back to the court, he promoted the feudal system. He conspired with the nobles of the six countries in the countryside and promoted private schools.
They neither serve the public nor abide by the law."
"Such Confucianism has no law, no heaven, no king, and no country."
"I order you to set out for Qufu tomorrow, arrest all the Confucian scholars in Confucius's old wall, burn Confucius' old wall, and burn all the poems and books privately collected by Confucius."
"In this attack, we should not use ordinary criminals against Confucianism, but we should use battlefield enemies against Confucianism."
"In this way, we can clarify the Qin government, rectify the country's laws, and control the restoration!"
Qin Luoheng said: "I accept the order."
"Get off." Ying Zheng waved his hand and asked Qin Luoheng to retreat. Qin Luoheng did not dare to stay any longer and quickly walked out of the chariot.
Get out of the car.
Qin Luoheng took a deep breath.
But he didn't expect that Confucianism would still commit a crime.
And it's so eye-catching.
When Confucian fled, he thought that the Confucian affairs were over, but he did not expect that Confucian had done so many things in private that harmed the country. To be fair, he did not think there was anything wrong with the decision-making made by the imperial court.
The Qin Dynasty already treated Confucians very favorably.
As a result, the Confucians not only did not want to serve the country, but also did anti-Qin and illegal things behind their backs. This kind of thing made people very angry, and they even just felt betrayed. How could this not make people have murderous intentions?
Confucians should be killed!!!
Qin Luoheng said coldly:
"Confucians are becoming increasingly ignorant of good and evil."
"Although Confucianism has a good academic reputation among the scholar class, it has always been the least popular among the people. Most of the Confucian scholars are people who are indifferent to their four bodies and five grains and do not love labor. If Qin's laws were really strictly enforced, they would have long ago
He was classified as a scoundrel and a lazy man, and was dragged into the military service early. As a result, the imperial court took advantage of it and gave preferential treatment to Confucianists. Instead of seeing good things, the Confucianists stabbed the imperial court in the back many times."
"It's really your own fault, you can't live!"
He had no good impression of Confucian scholars.
In addition, Confucianism is too self-righteous and does things that go too far. Today's situation is complex and a little carelessness may cause turmoil in the world. Confucianism does not want to appease the people, but instead becomes the source of trouble. How can he
