Chapter 23 It should be broken with the ambition of King Qin!
Li Si took a sip of hot tea, and his awe for the young King of Qin grew even more.
Through this period of contact, he knew that the young King of Qin had two skills. He was a peerless king who was wily and calculating.
After being silent for a long time, Li Siqing gave a wry smile and said word by word: "My sect's academics are based on the rule of law, with three parts of Wang Dao and one part Confucianism, with Wang Confucianism assisting the law."
"Orthodox legalists such as Li Li and Shang Jun emphasize only following the law and putting the rule of law first. The two are naturally different. It all depends on who uses it!"
"Whether it's Shang Jun's legal system or "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals", it's all a means, it just depends on how the king uses it..."
…
Li Si is a smart man. He can observe the rat in the barn and the rat in the toilet, decide to study, and then resolutely join the Qin Dynasty. Naturally, he knows when to stop.
Seeing that Li Si remained silent, Qin Wangzheng tapped his fingers on the long case several times, looked at Li Si, and said, "Sir, you are indeed a great talent at that time. These words made Ying Zheng suddenly feel enlightened."
"There's just one thing that Ying Zheng still doesn't understand: Since Marquis Wenxin has already sent "Lü's Spring and Autumn Annals" to the palace, why did he use extraordinary means to announce it to the world?"
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng was not completely ignorant, but he was a little unsure of his guesses and hoped to confirm one or two things with Li Si's insights before making a decision.
Hearing this, Li Si was silent for a while.
On the one hand, there was the Prime Minister Lu Buwei who had given him a favor, and on the other hand, he was the current king. This made Li Si feel troubled.
This is a multiple choice question.
For Li Si, this multiple-choice question is not difficult.
Seeing Li Si silently, Qin Wangzheng did not force him or speak. He just stared at Li Si intently in the dim light, like a ghost in the dark night, which put great pressure on Li Si.
This question was asked sharply, and Li Si knew that he could only choose one.
However, he had already made his choice from the moment he stepped onto the ship.
He chose Qin Wangzheng.
After all, an older Marquis Wenxin could never compare to the young King Qin who was already in charge.
This choice is actually not difficult to make, especially for someone as ambitious as Li Si.
The silence did not last long!
After all, at this moment, neither Li Si nor Qin Wangzheng was in the mood to listen to the sound of wind and water outside the cabin. They both needed to make a choice and come to an end.
"The purpose of Marquis Wenxin's move is to use "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals" to induce people's hearts and coerce public opinion!"
Qin Wangzheng didn't speak, and still stared at Li Si intently, but the meaning in his eyes signaled Li Si to continue.
Sensing the hint in Qin Wangzheng's eyes, Lista paused and said: "If the people's hearts are in favor of "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals", the king will definitely have some scruples. Once the king is scrupulous, he will inevitably implement lenient policies. At the same time, he can
Stabilize Qin’s law!”
"call……"
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time he breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes burning: "Sir, do you mean that Qin's law is unpopular with the people?"
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng was a little nervous. It was a matter of great Qin, so he had to be cautious.
Looking at the government of the King of Qin, Li Si spoke decisively and said: "Although Qin's law has won the hearts of the people, the common people respect and fear Qin's law. Naturally, they are happy about the lenient government and the reprieve."
"As for how to choose, Your Majesty is well aware of it, and I dare not say more!"
Li Si knew that there were some things he could say, but there were some words that were too much to point out, and it was a bit heart-wrenching to say them, and even made him angry in vain.
There was silence for a long time, and Qin Wangzheng did not speak. The boat sailed slowly in the lake, as stable as if it were on flat ground. Li Si was not in a hurry, and just treated it respectfully.
After a while, a full quarter of an hour passed, Qin Wangzheng suddenly raised his head, his eyes as sharp as a sword: "May I ask, sir, how to choose and how to make a decision?"
Li Si had already decided to lean towards the King of Qin, so at this moment, he no longer hid his clumsiness, nor did he want to hold back. He said bluntly: "Use the king's ambition to choose, and make the decision based on Qin's plan to govern the country!"
Hearing this, King Qin Zheng was heartbroken, and a fire flashed in his eyes. He stood up suddenly, bowed solemnly to Li Si, and said: "Ying Zheng is stupid, please teach me sir."
"call……"
At this moment, Li Si also felt the pressure. He sighed heavily and returned the favor to Qin Wangzheng: "The king's ambition is to be the leader of the princes and to share the world with the six kingdoms, then "Lu's Spring and Autumn" is stronger than Shang Jun's legal system.
."
"If the king's intention is to strengthen the army and calm down the disputes, and unify the eight wastelands and six regions, then Shang Jun's method will be better than "Lu's Spring and Autumn Annals".
…
Li Si knew clearly that King Qin would definitely choose the legal system of King Shang. After all, all the kings of Qin in the past were determined to unify the world. Perhaps when King Shang made the reform, he would use Qin to unify the world as a foothold.
Everyone has the same characteristics. When there is a better choice, they will never settle for the second best.
…
After solving the confusion in his heart, Qin Wangzheng finally had a peaceful sleep. The uneasiness in his heart since the publication of "Lu's Spring and Autumn" completely disappeared.
A conversation with Li Si made his heart even more determined.
Early the next morning, Qin Wangzheng came to the study. As he had just taken power, he was very enthusiastic about government affairs and did not dare to show any slights.
"Your Majesty, General Wang Ben wants to see you..." Zhao Gao was now under the porch. Even though King Qin couldn't see him, his expression was still respectful.
"oh?"
After a moment of surprise, Qin Wangzheng's calm voice came out: "Invite General Wang Ben in -!"
"promise."
Due to Wang Jian's surrender, Qin Wangzheng was at the peak of his favorable impression of the Wang family. When he heard Wang Ben's request for an audience, he agreed without hesitation.
Zhao Gao walked over quickly and said respectfully to Wang Ben: "Young General, your Majesty, please come in -!"
"Thank you!"
Zhao Gao was very respectful to Wang Ben.
When Wang Jian defected to Qin Wangzheng, he was there. Having accompanied Qin Wangzheng for such a long time, Zhao Gao naturally knew Qin Wangzheng's character. He knew that Wang Jian's help in times of crisis was remembered by Qin Wangzheng.
From now on, the Wang family will surely soar into the sky.
Moreover, Wang Ben was the eldest son of Wang Jian, and his talents were not inferior to anyone else.
"Your Majesty, Wang Ben, pays homage to your Majesty. Your Majesty will last for ten thousand years——!" Entering the study, Wang Ben immediately bowed solemnly to the King of Qin.
Wang Ben raised his eyebrows. He had seen Qin Wangzheng one after another recently. Qin Wangzheng's brows were furrowed on previous days, but now he was in a good mood and felt happy.
"Young general, don't worry about false courtesy!" Qin Wangzheng put down the bamboo slips in his hand, raised his head and looked at Wang Ben, and said: "You are much more heroic!"
"Young General is entering the palace this time, but you have something to ask me about?"
Hearing this, Wang Ben looked hesitant and was silent for a moment. Then he gritted his teeth and persisted, saying: "Your Majesty, the Third Young Master has something to ask for. He cannot see the King, so..."
"Is the young master tall?"
Suddenly, there was silence in the study, and Wang Ben couldn't help but feel anxious.
