"Your Majesty, Qi is the last vassal state conquered by my Great Qin, and the people are also the most restless, this disaster relief can greatly collect the sense of belonging of the people of Qi to Daqin, this businessman Qi Mao is a Qi county person, and can be regarded as a representative of Qi businessmen and wealthy people, and Qi land has been the most prosperous place for commerce since ancient times, and now the merchants and wealthy households who have migrated to Xianyang, about forty percent of them are Qi people, so if you want to collect the hearts of the people in the world, you can start with Qi land, although the minister Xu Qi Mao gave back an advertisement to give back the credit for transporting clothes, But this is not enough to accept his heart, if His Majesty can still promise the name of righteous businessmen, then the world's businessmen will inevitably be tempted, and the future will follow! ”

"Aiqing is reasonable...... the emperor nodded after listening, but before the following words could be said, a household official couldn't help but stand up and say, "Your Majesty can't, businessmen are good at profit, good at drilling camps, how can you hear that there is righteousness, how can you allow the word righteous business, the minister thinks that it can be like the rules of the three chapters of the last covenant, and give Lang an idle official to show his reward!" ”

"The minister seconded the proposal, and the word righteous business should not be lightly allowed!" Several ministers stood up and gave up their hands.

"Oh, businessmen are of course heavy on profit and light righteousness, but you adults must not forget Fan Lihu, business is not only the word profit, but also faith and righteousness, people are not born to know, businessmen are not born and good profit and light righteousness, we are above the court, when there is the responsibility of educating the people, the road of yin and yang, everything is not either/or, orange Huainan is orange, orange Huaibei is orange, we are the people who plant oranges, identify all things because of the place and the time of planting, then naturally obtain different products, businessmen's things, the court declares righteousness, then the people believe in righteousness, such as the court to declare it to benefitNow the newspaper calls on all the people to donate clothes, the people of Xianyang are enthusiastic about the scene, all have kindness and benevolence, this is the work of His Majesty's education, and when all the businessmen are waiting, Qi Mao can stand up and help, there must be the idea of benevolence and righteousness in the heart, this kind of benevolence and righteousness regardless of size or not, are worthy of publicity and appreciation, now Xu Qi Mao in the name of righteous businessmen, then the world's businessmen will take Qi Mao as a model, and act with benevolence and righteousness in the future......"

"Your Majesty, Lao Tzu once said: Virtue does nothing, and there is nothing to do; The virtue is for it, and there is also a thought. The benevolence is for it, but there is nothing to do; The righteousness is for it, and it is also thought to be. The virtue of benevolence and righteousness is bestowed by heaven, and it is the virtue that all the people should have, and we have read the books of the sages, and should have the virtue of educating all the people to have benevolence and righteousness as the Marquis of Qinghe said, and the ministers thought that they should give the name of Qi Mao Yishang to promote the heart of His Majesty to educate the virtues of benevolence, righteousness, and righteousness. A doctor stood up and loudly posted for Chen Xu.

"Your Majesty, the Rites of Etiquette: The benevolent is also benevolent, the rational is righteous, the festival is also courteous, the powerful know, the benevolent and righteous are known, and the people are propped. Benevolence and righteousness are the foundation of humanity and the source of morality. A doctor stood up and put it up.

"Your Majesty, King Wen is benevolent and righteous and reigns the world. Now my Daqin weather is thriving, the mountains, rivers and seas are bathed in holy light, the people are not benevolent and righteous and can not be governed, the minister agrees with the Qinghe Marquis's doctrine, please Your Majesty Xu Qimao in the name of righteous businessmen, then the world's businessmen Jia Jing will do righteousness and goodness, and the people are the same! Another doctor dressed in Confucian robes stood up.

"It is Your Majesty's responsibility to educate benevolence and righteousness, and to return all people to virtue!" Above the court, a large group of doctors and doctors suddenly stood up and saluted together, chanting in unison.

Li Si glanced slightly at the young man standing in front of him, held back his beard and eyebrows trembled slightly a few times but did not speak.

Whether it is the dispute between righteous businessmen or the dispute over laws and regulations, Li Si has been falling behind recently, because of the appearance of Chen Xu, the atmosphere above the court has changed greatly, although the people who support Chen Xu seem to be idle officials within some doctors and doctors, but Li Si knows that it is far from being as it seems, as long as he has a weighty official or a disciple of the Legalist family in Zhongshu Province stands up to refute it, Shangshu Province and Supervision Province will inevitably have officials of the same level to stand up and cheer for Chen Xu, and even a big man in the army will jump out to find him unlucky, Because Chen Xu Jinyan built the Martyrs' Shrine, has become a place of great honor for the soldiers of Daqin, and now the daily incense is surrounded by all the people to worship, this Martyrs' Shrine greatly condenses the hearts of the soldiers and the people, almost all the soldiers are grateful to Chen Xu, and it is natural for a group of generals above the court to support Chen Xu, so in just half a year, Chen Xu has changed from a ragtag army above the court that seems to have only the skin of the disciples of the immortal family to a bridgehead fortress to resist Li Si. Therefore, Li Si generally does not make a move now without being sure, and he is becoming more and more forbearant and low-key, because he finds that the emperor's mind is becoming more and more incomprehensible, and it is not as easy to figure out as before.

Looking at a large group of officials who spoke out for Chen Xu, Qin Shi Huang waved his sleeves and nodded: "Although Qi Mao is a businessman, he has the idea of benevolence and righteousness, regardless of the return to transport disaster relief clothes, I promise it in the name of righteous businessmen, and later there will be palace people to go to Qi Mao's mansion to read the edict, this matter will be published in the newspaper and spread to the world, in order to educate the world's businessmen and all the people to take advantage of benevolence and righteousness, and cultivate virtue!" ”

"Your Majesty is benevolent!" Chen Xu chanted with a large group of doctors and doctors.

This time, because of Qi Mao's matter, the dispute between benevolence and righteousness in the court was just a small matter for Chen Xu.

Benevolence and righteousness are virtues, and all disciples of all schools of thought have inherited them, and even Legalists still preach benevolence and righteousness. King Wen is benevolent and righteous and the king of the world' is from the mouth of Han Feizi, and Han Feizi is Li Si's fellow brother, is a more authentic Legalist disciple, and the most respected for benevolence, virtue and righteousness is Confucianism, and Confucianism has developed to the Warring States Period has been divided into eight, there has been a concept of disunity and disputes between each other, and under the influence of these eight different factions, hundreds of schools of thought have gradually diverged, and different concepts and interpretations of Confucianism have emerged, the two most famous of which are Mencius and Xunzi, one preaches the goodness of human nature, and follows the ancient rites of Shang and Zhou to promote benevolence, virtue and righteousness, and one preaches the evil of human natureAs a result, the disciples of Mencius and the disciples of Xunzi have gradually become a force of fire and water, whether it is in the people or in the court, the fight is extremely strong, and the book burning and Confucianism in history are also inseparable from this kind of fighting, and it is unknown how much Li Si's revenge psychology contains.

Therefore, before the book burning and Confucianism were not successful, Li Si did not cover the sky with one hand in the court, and there were a lot of people who opposed him, and they took away a Chun Yuyue, but there was another Qinghe Marquis.

And Qinghe Hou is a big wonder, it seems to talk about everything, talking about morality and law at the same time, talking about benevolence and righteousness and holding a lot of money, he eats delicacies and seas while caring about the suffering of the people in the world, and he can sit and chat with beggars in his own fine clothes and food, so what Chen Xu did in the eyes of the entire Xianyang people is messy, it is a complex of contradictions, it can't be seen clearly or figured out, and it can only be seen from a distance and can not be blasphemed!

The disaster relief is still continuing, but Chen Xu's mind is no longer much on disaster relief.

It's the middle of June, and the hottest summer is coming.

The Qinghe Villa outside the city has been cleaned up and is ready to move in.

Therefore, when the people of Xianyang enthusiastically donated money, food, clothing, and the whole city was discussing the suffering of the people in the disaster area, the wonderful marquis Chen Xu moved to a new residence outside the city to enjoy happiness.

Qinghe Villa is almost twenty miles away from Xianyang City, but the Weihe Plain is almost unobstructed except for a small piece of woods, and you can see the head of Xianyang City in the distance when you stand at the door of Qinghe Courtyard.

Outside the city is not inside the city, this radius of hundreds of acres of land and mountains and forests are all Chen Xu's private property, several times rewarded dozens of hectares of land and real estate, after Wang Qingsleeve died, he was rewarded with a hundred hectares of mountains and forests and a hundred hectares of grain fields, as well as ten cemeteries, so from the bank of the Wei River to the northeast nearly thirty miles of territory are Chen Xu's sphere of influence, the crops and farmers above are Chen Xu's, and there is no curfew, when you go out and go home, no one will care, it is completely the most free emperor.

In the face of such a large private estate, Chen Xu naturally still has to take a good inspection, so since he moved here and settled down in the family, he will take the time to ride a horse and take a group of domestic servants with knives, guns, bows and arrows to check around the territory every day.

Talk to the farmer about the cultivation of crops, check the resources in his territory, where there are small rivers, where there are ponds, where there are mountains and forests, where there are delicious wild fruits, and after each survey, go home and draw a map, and then plan how to play the characteristics of these places according to local conditions, such as raising fish, such as planting vegetables, such as planting fruit trees, etc., so these days, this manor map that looks like a game map has aroused great interest in Xing'er and Yu Ji, and they will play games on the manor map if they have nothing to do.

This morning, Chen Xu came to a small stream, there is a water here, an area of about seven or eight acres, there are reeds, lettuce and other plants growing in it, frogs croaking around, dragonflies flying in groups like bombers, water snakes are also everywhere in the water and grass through the rope, it is definitely a primitive wilderness, no one has ever come on weekdays, there is no road.

Such a good water, it would be a pity for Chen Xu not to have to go on it, dig it up, build a dam around it is a primitive pond, raise some fish and shrimp, and then arrange people to build a farm nearby, raise a group of chickens, ducks and geese, and come to fish when you have nothing to do, it is really a good place to kill multiple birds with one stone.

Accompanied by the three elders and the Fu Youfu in the fiefdom, they all dared not come out, and followed behind Chen Xu respectfully.

"I'm going to dig a pond in this place, and after the summer grain is harvested, you will gather the villagers to do it, and the workers will take out five yuan a day to subsidize one pound of grain......"

"Master Hou, if you have a job, just arrange it directly, don't dare to ask for money and food!" Shofu and You Juan quickly shook their heads.

"It's okay, it's a reward, so that everyone can work harder......"

Just when Chen Xu led people to check around this piece of water, he only heard a faint noise on the hillside next to him, and then a spotted deer rushed out, followed by a sudden sound of a bowstring, a sharp arrow shot out of the woods, and with a thud it was deeply inserted into the neck of the wild deer, and the wild deer fell to the edge of the forest with a wail, and then, a young man wearing a coarse linen coat with a cloak and a big bow rushed out of the woods.
