Chapter 50: The Old Man Talks About Teenage Madness
"Oh?"
Chu Yang raised his eyebrows, and the matter in front of him that could be asked for advice was probably not so simple.
He first asked people to bring tea, and then sent a few delicate snacks.
Li Si looked at the clear and fragrant tea in the cup, took a sip gently, and his eyes suddenly lit up.
"Good tea!"
"If the prime minister likes it, you can bring some when you go back, this tea is also a new thing that Chu has nothing to do, and it can't be climbed into the elegant hall." Chu Yang said with a smile.
Lees shook his head.
"Although tea is a trivial matter, it can see the avenue, and the lieutenant of Chu can turn decay into magic with a stroke of his hand, which shows the talent of the son!"
Li Si looked at Chu Yang and said slowly:
"Before, the old man heard Gongzi say, my Daqin should rule the country by law, does Gongzi really think so in his heart?"
"So you're waiting for me here......" Chu Yang glanced at Li Si and nodded secretly.
At this time, although Li Si did not reach the mad state of deposing a hundred schools and respecting Confucianism like Dong Zhongshu when Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was in the later generations, it was actually not far behind.
In Li Si's own words, it is to depose the hundred schools of thought, respect the law, except for the code and the necessary mathematics and agricultural knowledge, other superfluous knowledge should not exist in this world.
As a result, there was the famous book burning and Confucianism incident in later generations.
As for the few scholars who were talking nonsense at the beginning, it was just a disguise.
Chu Yang knew that Li Si's question seemed random, but in fact he was looking for allies.
Speaking of which, don't look at Li Siquan's life, he is actually a tragic figure.
Now that Qin Shi Huang is still there, he can naturally implement the emperor's will at the expense of offending anyone, but when Qin Shi Huang is not there, Li Si at that time will inevitably be counted as a counterattack.
In addition, he offended too many powerful people, and he had a very bad relationship with the military led by Meng Tian, so he could only go to the end of the edict.
Maybe at this time, I can help Li Si?
As soon as Chu Yang had this idea, the system prompt sounded.
γDing! Congratulations to the host for triggering the hidden quest, starting a sect to save Li Si, please start your own school, and invite Li Si to join! γ
[Complete this hidden mission to increase the chance of blue items dropping 100%!] γ
"Founding a sect?"
Chu Yang was slightly stunned, this is a good idea.
Although he has always been known as the heir of Guigu, if he can start his own school, it will undoubtedly be a more fulfilling thing.
What's more, the knowledge he taught was far from enough to be summarized by a single Guiguzi's knowledge.
Thinking of this, Chu Yang looked at Li Sidao:
"Governing the country according to the law is indeed what Chu thinks in his heart, but in addition to governing the country according to the law, Chu feels that it should also be educated by morality, and the two complement each other, and finally achieve external Confucianism and internal law, which is the royal way!"
"Outer Confucianism and Inner Law?"
Hearing this, Li Si was stunned.
Over the years, he has painstakingly studied the way of governing the country, and he is bent on creating a different path for the Qin State than the other six countries.
Confucianism has long been destroyed with the destruction of the Lu State and has become the laughing stock of other countries.
The way of Legalism of Daqin, in troubled times, can be said to be unimpeded, not only forming an unprecedented national combat power, but also stimulating the people's warlike heart, and at the same time there is no worries.
But now, the flaws of this method have begun to be exposed, otherwise there would not be so many places where chaos would have arisen.
Don't look at Daqin's impregnable now, but Li Si knows that at some point, an incalculable crisis will erupt.
Therefore, when he heard that Chu Yang was a disciple from the Guigu Sect, he had the intention of asking for advice.
"Please also ask Childe to teach me!" Li Si said sincerely.
"In Chu's view, the biggest role of Confucianism is to educate morality, and his function is to set a clear example for everyone in the world, how to become a person of noble character, but if you want to use Confucianism to govern the country, it can only be a castle in the air, a fantasy."
Li Si bowed slightly, obviously agreeing with Chu Yang's statement.
Confucianism is not good at other skills, but it is indeed outstanding in teaching disciples.
The concept of "education without class" introduced by Confucius alone is worthy of admiration from all ages.
In fact, it is precisely because of the emergence of Confucianism that many grassroots people have been sent to the position of "scholars" of the aristocratic class.
"In the same way, the important function of Legalism is to establish a code of conduct for the country and even the people, and to do things in a standardized manner, which is also the bottom line of everyone's life, so that with the life goals set by Confucianism in the front, and the bottom line measured by Legalism in the back, then the space that ordinary people need to live in is divided."
Chu Yang looked at Li Si and expressed his views on Legalism and Confucianism.
When he talks about this, he inevitably carries some thoughts of later generations.
But Rao is like this, which also makes Li Si shocked.
Because since he started his studies, he has visited famous teachers, but he has never heard such a subtle point of view.
He knew that the old Qin people lived hard and were bound by the law everywhere, but he didn't dare to remove this shackle easily, because he was worried that Great Qin would follow in the footsteps of the Six Kingdoms.
But today's words of this Chu Gongzi made him suddenly enlightened and had a new direction.
"Is there room for living? That's an interesting statement......"
However, Li Si immediately thought of something and frowned again.
"Dare to ask Gongzi Chu, there is this living space, but how should my court choose talents?"
You must know that Daqin is now a teacher of officials, and only those who are familiar with the law will be entrusted with important tasks.
However, this approach seems to be somewhat contradictory to the external Confucian and internal laws mentioned earlier.
"If each of us can perform our own duties, those who know how to calculate can be in charge of household registration, taxation, the art of war and military, the generals who fight wars, those who know how to spin and dye, those who are responsible for civil affairs, those who know how to do business, and those who are responsible for diplomatic negotiations, so that the imperial court selects officials according to the merits of their skills, and lets professional people do professional things, wouldn't it be very good?"
Hearing Chu Yang's words, Li Si nodded, and then remembered the discussion between the two on the imperial examination system recorded by the crown prince Fusu in the chapter before.
At that time, he thought that this Chu Gongzi was just talking casually, but when he saw it today, he understood that the other party was definitely well thought out, and even had a set of specific methods.
Li Si then remembered that when he entered the back house, he saw those children wearing the word "Li", and couldn't help but look at Chu Yang and asked:
"Those children, could it be the experiment done by Gongzi Chu?"
Chu Yang was stunned, and then laughed.
What the prime minister said is good, Chu believes that all things in this world can't escape the word "reason" after all, and what people do is to explore the reason of all things in the world. Chu's lineage, called Lizong, is involved in all things in the world, in order to find a direction for people. β
"As for those children, whether it is experiments or upbringing, after all, they have a livelihood, Chu's biggest ideal is to think of me as a person of Daqin, everyone is like a dragon, happy and dignified life!"
"Shhh
As soon as Chu Yang's words fell, he saw Li Si gasp and look at him in a daze.
Next, I saw Li Si suddenly get up and bow down towards Chu Yang.
"Young Master Chu is talented, Li Si has been taught!"
Chu Yang smiled and shook his head.
"The prime minister is serious, this road is easy to say, but it is difficult to do, Chu is just trying his best and not paying attention to regrets."
"Well, it does."
Lees sighed and sat down.
Don't look at the scene depicted by Chu Yang is very beautiful, but the reality is extremely cruel.
Once Chu Yang makes his thoughts public, I am afraid that he will first attract the reproach of the hundreds of schools.
Because Chu Yang completely blocked other people's roads.
If other people's families can't recruit disciples, what kind of inheritance can they do?
"But today I can hear the high opinion of Chu Gongzi, the old man is already satisfied, what you said about the external Confucianism and internal law, the old man will tell Your Majesty truthfully, at least for now, this is really a good suggestion."
Looking at the young man in front of him, Li Si said with envy:
"By the way, Your Majesty asked me to tell you, do a good job, he is still waiting for you to play the prelude to the palace!"
Hearing this, Chu Yang hurriedly got up and arched his hand:
"Chu Yang must bow down and die!"
As he spoke, he looked straight at Li Si and said word by word:
"I wonder if the prime minister is willing to walk with me all the way?"
"Huh? Do you want the old man to join your sect? "Li Silen is there.
Chu Yang nodded.
"As the so-called legal principles and legal principles, the Legalist faction and my Sect originally had the same path, is there anyone more suitable in this world than you, Prime Minister?"
Li Si looked at Chu Yang and was silent for a long time.
It stands to reason that he has become the head of the Legalist faction, and it is not suitable to participate in other people's schools at all, but seeing the other party's convincing appearance, I don't know why, Li Si has an impulse to gamble.
What if this young man really did something that he didn't do himself!
That's it, the old man will talk about juvenile madness once!
"Okay, as long as Gongzi Chu is united in knowledge and action, what does it matter if the old man joins this Li Sect!"
