Chapter 133 There is a female Shunying
To suddenly give this order to Ying Zheng, the ministers guessed Ying Zheng’s intention after thinking about it for a moment: The king named him to let the smart children from all over the world enter Xianyang. Let them learn something.
Who will these children learn from?
Two words popped up in the minds of all the ministers - Li Nian!
It’s that Li Nian again!
The king ordered officials from all over the country to select smart young people to go to Xianyang and let them study under Li Nian.
Some ministers couldn't help but frown. If this were true, would all the officials in Da Qin be from Li Nian's family in the future?
If that happens, will this world belong to Li Nian or to the king?
And Li Nian does not seem to belong to any of the hundreds of schools today. His preaching and teaching may be more than one among the hundreds of schools of thought.
Not only that, Li Nian teaches prodigies selected from various places. Although it is still late to establish a school, with these outstanding disciples and the support of the king, can other schools still have a way to survive?
At this time, they thought they had figured it out: It turned out that the king did not only respect Legalism and did not want to use Confucianism. The school and thought of governing the country he wanted came from Li Nian.
The ministers were even more curious about Li Nian. Who is this person?
Although many ministers did not dare to say what they thought due to concerns about the unclear relationship between Li Nian and the king, some ministers still stood up and asked: "Does the king want to teach these children to Li Nian? ”
Ying Zhengdao : "What's wrong?"
The minister said sternly: "I think it's very wrong! I know that the king trusts Li Nian, and Li Nian also has great talents and great achievements, but the king does not favor him too much. It will be harmed..."
At this time, Da Qin still had ministers who dared to speak out. In fact, even during the time of Hu Hai, there were still ministers who dared to speak out and give advice. Unfortunately, they were all wiped out by Zhao Gao's move of "turning a deer into a horse".
After that, there were no ministers in the Qin Dynasty who dared to speak out and remonstrated. The ministers who were still in the court either collaborated with Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, or remained silent and ate and drank.
At that time, the Qin Dynasty was completely rotten to the core. Even if the First Emperor climbed out of the grave and ascended the throne again, he could not save it.
Seeing that Ying Zheng was not angry and did not stop him from speaking, the minister continued: "The king trusts Li Nian now, and Li Nian is also loyal to the king. It is a good story for a king and his ministers to get along well with each other. People who can learn from Li Nian Will he be with Li Nianyi? Are you loyal to your Majesty?”
“Li Nian’s disciples are all smart and young people in the world. They have achieved success and will definitely be our great masters in the Qin Dynasty. They may sit in command or occupy high positions in the court. When the time comes...”
After the point was made, the minister did not continue. He believed that his words were enough to make the king understand:
You trust Li Nian too much and let Li Nian accept these smart and young people as disciples. In the future, the Qin Dynasty will If all the important ministers are from Li Nian's sect, by then, will the Qin Dynasty belong to Li Nian or to you, the king?
Even if Li Nian himself is very loyal to you, the disciples he taught may not be. It is impossible to give Li Nian a royal robe: you disciples are really hurting me!
Ying Zheng looked at the minister and said: "You have shared my worries for me, so I will reward you with one piece of Shu brocade and five pieces of silk!"
Not only did the king not get angry, he also rewarded himself. , the minister quickly thanked him: "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the reward!"
After the reward was given, Ying Zheng said again: "However, I have already thought of what you said, and I have also cared about it in my heart, so there is no need to say more."
This is not Ying Zheng lying, it is true, he has already thought of it. solved this problem.
This time he ordered officials from various places to send smart children to Xianyang to study with Li Nian. This was also an experiment of his.
He planned to first see how much impact Li Nian's "enlightening the people's wisdom and opening up education" would have on the monarchy, to see if the young people who studied with Li Nian would be loyal to him, and to see if Li Nian could solve this problem.
If the results he sees are not in line with his expectations, then some people will die.
No matter how good the knowledge and technology of later generations are, it is useless if it does not benefit him.
He could tolerate the modification of Qin's laws and the promotion of new plows, briquettes, tables and chairs in the world, benefiting all people, because these would not harm his power as king, but would be beneficial to him. But if Professor Li Nian's knowledge of future generations threatens his power, he will not hesitate to block it, even if those things are very good.
After hearing what Ying Zheng said, the minister took the initiative to plead guilty and said: "I didn't know that the king had already calculated, and showed off his wisdom in front of the king. Please forgive me!"
From Ying Zheng's words, the ministers also heard other meanings: The king has his own ideas and does not completely trust Li Nian.
This made many ministers breathe a sigh of relief. If the king completely trusted one person, it would not be a good thing for them.
The king is already on top of them, and they don’t want another second king after the king to appear.
Ying Zhengdao: "You are loyal to me, and share my worries for me. What crime do you have? If I punish you, won't the world think that I don't distinguish between loyalty and treachery?"
After the court meeting, Ying Zheng Yiran sent a summary of the contents of the court meeting to Liuying Palace.
In the Liuying Palace, Li Nian, who had just finished class with Su Xu, saw the bamboo slips that were delivered again and shook his head.
During this period, it became a routine for the First Emperor to send bamboo slips for court meetings to him.
But he also knew that this was because the First Emperor wanted him to help check for leaks and fill them up, and to see from the perspective of future generations whether there were any problems with the decrees set by the court.
Opening the bamboo slips, Li Nian saw the decision between the First Emperor and the Dukes of the Qin Dynasty on the paper, and then saw the conversation between the First Emperor and the minister. He thought to himself: "Even if he is called the emperor of the ages, the First Emperor will never be the same." After all, the emperor could not transcend the limitations of the king's class. ’
‘Not only the First Emperor, but also other emperors. Even Erfeng, who is considered quite enlightened in modern times and can accept advice and accept others, may be like this. ’
When Li Nian was looking through the bamboo slips of the court meeting, Ying Zheng was not handling government affairs in Zhangtai Palace. He was in the harem area of the Qin Palace, where his concubines and daughters lived.
Due to what happened to Lao Ai and his mother Zhao Ji, Ying Zheng had extremely strict management of the harem. Except for necessary guards, almost no outside men were allowed to enter.
It is absolutely impossible that Meng Yi and Ying Zheng's favorite concubine Yu Shu are in love like in "The Myth".
Once discovered, no matter how favored the Meng clan is, they will surely be defeated by the three Yi clans. As long as Meng Yi is not stupid, he will never approach Yu Shu.
Today, Meng Yi accompanied Ying Zheng in, but Meng Yi did not dare to look around and followed Ying Zheng with a serious expression.
Ying Zheng came to a palace. A young girl had been waiting there early. When she saw Ying Zheng approaching, the girl saluted and said, "Shun Ying has met my father!"
Like "Fu Su", "Shun Ying" also comes from "The Book of Songs. Zheng Feng", but it is another article "A Girl Riding in a Car":
A girl riding in a car, her face is like Shunhua. The general will soar, the jade will fly. He is beautiful, Meng Jiang, both beautiful and beautiful.
There is a female companion with a face as beautiful as Shunying. The generals will soar and fly, and the generals will wear jade. Meng Jiang is beautiful and his virtues are unforgettable.
I didn’t want to write “Ying Yin Man”. I felt that at this time, his age might be very young and not suitable, but I couldn’t think of a name, so I chose one from the Book of Songs, which happened to be the same as “Shan You”. "Fusu" belongs to Zheng Feng in "Ode to Fengya".
