"What Chang'an Jun said?" Zhao Gao asked in surprise.
Li Si's writing was a little slow, as if a movie had been played twice as long.
From this tone, it seems that Zhao Gao did not know much about the Lord of Chang'an.
"Brother Zhao seems to be very surprised." Li Si delivered the sentence very smoothly.
Zhao Gao knew that the question he just asked gave Li Si a glimpse of a flaw, but he could not think of any other remedy for a moment.
He could only say as naturally as possible: "It is indeed true. He can perfect such a detailed system by himself. Anyone else would be amazed by Gao."
Li Si nodded with sympathy and said: "It is true. Hearing Lord Chang'an's words is still shocking to this day. Lord Chang'an seems to have seen the future development of the county system with his own eyes, and the certainty of what he said shocked him deeply. If it weren't for
I came up with this system of prefectures and counties in three days of meditation, and I thought it was Lord Chang'an who came up with it."
Li Si wrote the last stroke and finished it with ease and ease.
It is said that calligraphy is like the person he is, but Li Si's handwriting is completely different from his rigid self. His handwriting is beautiful and elegant, and can be called a masterpiece of calligraphy.
Li Si blew the bamboo slip gently to make the ink dry faster.
Then he rolled it up from the right side of the bamboo slip to the left and handed it to Zhao Gao. He said to Zhao Gao apologetically: "Brother Zhao, please help Si carry one roll. This bamboo slip is too heavy. It will be very difficult for Si to hold three rolls."
Zhao Gao did not take the bamboo slips handed over by Li Si, but held the two volumes of bamboo slips written by Li Si in his hands.
Looking at him, he looked very calm and relaxed, as if the two scrolls of bamboo slips in his hands, which were as long as an adult's forearm, weighed nothing.
"Brother Li used wisdom and strength. This bamboo slip is indeed extremely heavy. Maybe it won't be long before the Chang'an Palace has something as thin and light as a cicada's wings that can replace the bamboo slip." Zhao Gao said, if not unintentionally, in fact.
This time, Li Si did not slow down his movements, nor did his speaking speed change. His rigid face made it even harder for people to see what he was really thinking.
"Thank you very much, Brother Zhao, for your advice. I owe all my successes to Brother Zhao."
The two traveled together, and as soon as they left the front door of the Li Mansion, they were stopped by an official from the Tingwei Mansion.
"Sir Tingwei, Mr. Tingweizheng, please return to Tingwei's mansion as soon as possible to review the case."
Both Li Si and Zhao Gao ignored this little official.
As if they didn't hear what the clerk was saying, they bypassed the clerk and headed towards the carriage that had been parked outside Li's house.
Seeing this, the clerk trotted between the two people and the carriage, opened his arms, looked directly at Li Si and repeated: "Sir Tingwei, Mr. Tingwei Zheng, please return to Tingwei Mansion as soon as possible to review the case.
"
Zhao Gao smiled slightly, feeling that this little official was a bit interesting, but he didn't know which courtier had bewitched him, and he even risked his life.
"roll."
Li Si saw Zhao Gao's attitude towards the minor officials and knew what Zhao Gao was thinking.
But he knew that this little official was born with a stubborn mind and was not a pawn of others in the court, so he said with a straight face: "Has the suspect been caught?"
The clerk's outstretched arms suddenly felt a little weak, and his answering voice was much softer than before.
"Never."
"The suspect has not been arrested. Who do you want me to interrogate? Why don't we arrest the suspect quickly?"
"only."
Zhao Gao looked at the back of the young official who ran away with a puff of smoke.
"When it comes to life and death, I can still tell the difference clearly."
Li Siming knew the temperament of the junior official, but he still agreed: "What Brother Zhao said is absolutely true."
In Tingwei's Mansion, Tingwei was waiting and waiting, guarding the left prison of Tingwei who was struggling hard. He finally saw the officer sent to look for Li Si enter the house, and his eyes lit up.
"Where is Lord Tingwei?"
"In Li's Mansion."
Tingwei's vision went dark and he almost fainted. He held on to the wall of Tingwei's house and gritted his teeth and said, "Master Tingwei is in the house, so what are you doing here?"
The clerk said confidently: "How can we arrest someone if there is no suspect? Lord Ting Wei said, arrest the suspect first."
To arrest the suspect? The one who commanded was His Majesty's own brother Ying Chengyu, and the one who took action was Zhang Han, the Commander-in-Chief of the Nine Palaces. Without His Majesty's orders, who would dare to arrest these two? Ask Li Si if he dares?
"Go back to the Li Mansion! Go and invite Lord Tingwei again! Forget it, I'll go with you!"
"Master Tingwei is no longer in the Li Mansion. When I came back, Master Tingwei was getting into the carriage with a eunuch."
Tingwei, who was originally walking in a hurry and looking panicked, suddenly lost his hurry when he heard the word eunuch.
In the entire Xianyang City, there was only one place with eunuchs, Xianyang Palace.
Tingwei turned around and looked at the clerk, pointing at Tingwei's left prisoner and saying: "Look at the left prisoner, I'll go find Lord Tingwei."
After leaving Tingwei's mansion, Tingwei stopped and looked in the direction of Xianyang Palace, showing no intention of looking for Li Si.
Your Majesty intervened, and this matter had nothing to do with the Tingwei Mansion.
Zhangtai Palace.
The First Emperor lay on the table and looked at the three bamboo slips covered with Li Si's writing on the table. He was overjoyed.
"Cai! This is the real system of counties and counties! This is the system of Great Qin that I want in my heart!"
The First Emperor did not hide his inner thoughts, he was overjoyed, dancing with his hands and feet. Judging from his performance, he actually didn't know how to be happy.
"Mr. Li's great talents, even if they are Guan Zhong and Fan Li, are far inferior to him. Mr. Li's entry into the Qin Dynasty is a blessing to me and a blessing to the Qin Dynasty. Gai Nie proposed that Li Sijue be promoted to the third level and be granted the title of prime minister.
As a reward to the state, you will be rewarded with a fine horse, five thousand gold, and a pair of jade!"
The First Emperor spoke so quickly and urgently that Li Si had no room to interrupt.
Li Si did not dare to forcefully interrupt the First Emperor's speech, so he could only listen, feeling ashamed on his face because of the success of pretending to be the leader of Ying Chenglong, and bleeding in his heart because he could not be promoted to the third level and granted the title of Prime Minister.
It wasn't until Gai Nie was about to polish his ink and draft an edict that Li Si had a chance to speak. He quickly said, "Your Majesty, this is the work of Lord Chang'an. I dare not take it away from you."
The First Emperor, who held Li Si's hands tightly and shook them constantly to show that he valued Li Si, stopped shaking.
"Cheng Xi?"
"It's Mr. Chang'an."
"What you wrote was what he told you?"
"Ninety-nine percent of it is what Lord Chang'an said. I, at most, played a general role in this."
How come this Zhuzi understands everything? It was clearly Li Si who came up with the county and county system under my guidance, but looking at these bamboo slips, it seems that this Zhuzi came up with it. With such a comprehensive and meticulous county system, this Zhuzi seems to have seen its implementation.
For more than a thousand years, the county system has been perfected to the extreme.
The First Emperor snorted coldly and said, "Then what else did Zhuzi say?"
Li Si bowed down and bowed, and said with sincerity and sincerity: "Your Majesty, Lord Chang'an really has some unfinished words. Lord Chang'an said: 'If you want to finish the unfinished business in the court, you can steal the sky and change the sun in the name of Legalism.' Lord Chang'an really is that."
Genius, I have never seen anyone like the King of Chang'an, I have never known anyone like the King of Chang'an in history, and I have never heard of rumors that there is anyone like the King of Chang'an."
I have never seen anyone as talented as Lord Chang'an in real life. There is no person as talented as Lord Chang'an in the history that I know of, and there is no person as talented as Lord Chang'an in the rumors I have heard.
These three words of Li Si raised Ying Chengxiao to a height that was simply as high as the sky.
Gai Nie looked at Li Si, who had a stereotyped face, expressionlessly, and labeled the Tingwei, who had the same facial paralysis as him, as a "dog licker."
Zhao Gao silently kept Li Si's words in mind, planning to polish them and find an opportunity to tell them to the First Emperor in the future.
The First Emperor didn't show much reaction to Li Si's words of flattery to Ying Chengyu. He showed that he was very interested in what Li Si had just said on behalf of Ying Chengyu.
Pulling Li Si to sit on both sides of the table, the First Emperor waved to Gai Nie and Zhao Gao and asked them to stay out of their way.
After driving away the two men, the First Emperor sat upright and said: "Why do you steal the sky and change the sun in the name of Legalism?"
Li Si didn't dare to sell the truth - not to mention that the truth was not his in the first place, he was just a sounding board.
"Your Majesty has seen the whole picture of the system of prefectures and counties. When the court meeting is held again, I and the Legalist disciples in the court will work together to refute the feudal system with the system of prefectures and counties perfected by Lord Chang'an. Your Majesty will implement the system of prefectures and counties at this time.
This is because the enfeoffment system is inferior to the system of counties and counties. The implementation of the system of counties and counties requires many officials. At this time, the minister proposed the assessment standards for regulating local Qin officials - that is, taking the legal stripes as the first assessment standard. So far.
If we don't move forward, the officials will only think that this is an introduction to the system of prefectures and counties for the millennium development of Legalism, and will not think that this has anything to do with His Majesty."
The First Emperor began to speak from Li Si and listened from beginning to end without interrupting Li Si.
After listening, the First Emperor was sitting there in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking.
Li Si felt a little surprised and a little hard to understand when he didn't get any words of praise from the First Emperor.
What he just boasted about Ying Chengxuan was naturally exaggerated, but Li Si actually really felt that Ying Chengxuan's suggestion was indeed good.
First of all, when the First Emperor did not die, the disciples of Legalism worked together to refute the feudal system with the system of counties and counties. This would lead to an established fact that the feudal system was inferior to the system of counties and counties.
So the fact that Li Si is the trumpet of the First Emperor will be a relatively big impact - can one person come up with such a complete system of counties and counties? This is obviously the result of the collective efforts of all Legalist disciples.
Then Li Si asked again: The first evaluation criterion for all local Qin officials is legal provisions.
This is equivalent to using Legalist theory as Qin's teaching material, which is obviously for the Millennium Development Plan of Legalism.
It is said that the interests of development are higher than the interests of feudal states. This view is now accepted by most people. Isn’t this the reason why Confucianism keeps jumping up and down?
Using the development of Legalism as a shield to block the First Emperor from behind was the remedy given by Ying Chengyu.
This remedy cannot be said to be perfect, but it is definitely feasible.
"What else did Cheng Yu say?"
The First Emperor came to his senses and broke the moment of silence.
"With Cheng Xi's character, as long as he is not present, it means that he has full confidence in his plan. In this case, he will usually not just make one plan in case I disagree."
"One country, two systems."
Li Si spoke without any hesitation, as if he had been waiting for Ying Zheng to ask questions.
At night.
Chang'an Junfu.
In an empty open space, a blazing bonfire dissipated the cold air and darkness of the night.
"One country, two systems."
Ying Chengyu said while holding a large handful of mutton skewers skewered on wooden skewers and flipping them back and forth on his homemade barbecue grill.
The charcoal fire in the barbecue grill burns quietly, and from time to time a drop of suet drips, making a beeping sound, and an alluring aroma wafts out.
Beside the bonfire, there were six figures in total.
Because night fell and the bonfire's light coverage was limited, it was not possible to illuminate all of these figures, and four of them were always in shadow.
The bonfire only illuminated two people, one was a drunkard in white--Jun Zhao Wu'an Li Mu, and the other was a scholar in blue.
Li Mu was holding the bottle of wine that he could never live without in his hand. He stretched out his hand to pull open the front of his shirt and asked for the scholar in blue shirt beside him who was writing on his lap: "What is one country, two systems? I stuttered the question."
After Li Mu finished speaking, the scholar in blue shirt nodded slightly at Ying Chengyu, with three big words "please popularize science" written all over his face.
It seems that the scholar in blue shirt is not disgusted by the word "stammer" used to address Li Mu.
"That is, the system of prefectures and counties and the enfeoffment system are implemented at the same time, also called the parallel system of prefectures and states. Guanzhong, Bashu, Han and Wei, which are close to Xianyang, implement the prefecture and county system. Qi, Chu and other places are enfeoffed to
If you have a strong person, let him suppress you nearby."
While Ying Chengyu was answering, he luxuriously used his inner strength to wrap the mutton on the skewers so that every piece of mutton was heated evenly.
His cheating grilling method means that even a master who has grilled mutton skewers all his life is still not as delicious as the mutton skewers grilled by Ying Chengyu. If he had had this skill in his previous life, he might have become a small internet celebrity.
The scholar in the blue shirt who was called stuttering used his hand to write on Li Mu's lap.
When Ying Chengyu saw this, he joked: "Why did the drunkard become a mouthpiece for stammering today?"
Li Mu said helplessly: "If he destroys a piece of paper, he will not let you go, just like the Huns who are addicted to plundering."
"Your Majesty, is it ready to bake?"
A white figure wearing the same white clothes as Li Mu appeared and landed next to Ying Chengyu.
Bai Ying's appearance was very sudden. He was not among the six people at the campfire. If we include him, besides Ying Chenglong, there were seven people present.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! "Almost, have a taste. Hey, I asked you to take a bunch, and you took them all. What does it mean?"
"Your Majesty, don't be so stingy, just bake it again."
Bai Ying's figure moved for a while, and in a moment, everyone present except Ying Chenglong had fragrant mutton skewers in their hands.
In this era, most of the mutton is real mutton, without technology or harsh labor, and the meat is delicious.
Everyone devoured the food, and the food was delicious.
"Your Majesty's craftsmanship has become much better, and your martial arts have improved a lot?"
"I can eat twenty kilograms of meat in one meal."
"Eat slowly, never tire of fine food, never tire of delicate food."
Ying Chengyu said angrily: "You are such a reckless man, this monthly salary is completely gone."
The reckless man hurriedly cried out: "Everyone has eaten. Your Majesty, you can't just target me."
"Play some tricks with me that won't offend the public?"
At this moment, Stuttering finally finished writing on Li Mu's lap. Li Mu said on behalf of Stuttering: "The system of prefectures and counties is a system of great unification. It only takes King Qin twenty years to reign, and the world will be truly unified. Why do you want to give King Qin prefectures?"
Parallel system of states? Delay the unification of the world?"
"The land of Yanzhao is full of happy and tragic people."
Under the warm firelight, Li Mu and Mangfu nodded slightly, agreeing with Ying Chengyu's praise of Yanzhao.
"The people of Qi are rich and do not communicate with other countries. The Wus of Chu are arrogant and despise the heroes of the world. The people of Wei are brave and resourceful but are burdened by the king. The states of the world are all different..."
Ying Chengyu took several kinds of meat skewers this time, including tiger meat, bear meat, rabbit meat... there were fifty or sixty skewers in total, and he placed them all on the barbecue grill.
He continued his career as a kebab master while solving his stuttering questions.
"Han?"
The young man in blue shirt, who was called a stammer by Li Mu and Ying Chengxuan, but looked more like a mute, spat out a word, interrupting Ying Chengxuan's words.
"Han gave birth to Han Feizi."
One of the four shadow people said with a smile.
There was no teasing in that laughter, but full of pride and admiration.
Stuttering gave the man a Confucian thank-you ceremony, and then continued to stare at Ying Chengyu with piercing eyes.
Qi, Chu, Yan, Zhao, and Wei all have their own strengths, but what about Han? What is Han's strength?
Ying Chengqiao Kebab didn't waste any time in speaking. From the looks of it, he probably didn't even think about this step before he just opened his mouth.
"Han doesn't have any strengths."
There was a look of dissatisfaction in Stutter's eyes, and he began to write and draw on Li Mu's thigh again.
Li Mu stopped Stuttering - there was no need for Stuttering to write this time, he also knew what Stuttering wanted to say.
