Chapter 9: Shocking the government and the opposition
When Wang Juan came to the center, there was an uproar all of a sudden, who is he?
The prime minister of the empire is a rare erudite master in the empire.
But now, the old prime minister is arguing on stage in person, and he is still arguing with a loser like Meng Yi, which can't help but make people feel that they are overkill.
"The old prime minister personally went out, this Meng family kid is going to be unlucky."
"Who made him arrogant, he actually had to fight the ministers with the strength of one person, and now he has annoyed the prime minister, he deserves it!!"
β¦β¦
Many people whispered in private and discussed a lot, and most of them fell into the well.
Even Ying Zisu was not optimistic about Meng Yi, and she was quite unhappy with his arrogant attitude, she bowed her head and said: "Brother Wang, this son is really arrogant, I'm afraid I'm going to die this time." β
Gongzi Fusu was silent when he heard this, he frowned, and he was also a little worried, after all, the opponent was Wang Xuan, not the young student of the Doctor's Palace, and when it came to knowledge, there was no one else in Xianyang City.
Because of this, he really sweated for Meng Yi.
Meng Yi is not a fool, when he sees the court, all the royal nobles, ministers and students are whispering, he knows what they are discussing.
He ignored it completely, stepped forward, looked at the old man with snow-white hair, bowed and saluted: "It is both a debate and a priority, the prime minister is a senior, please give advice." β
In the DPRK-China debate, polite and polite words are absolutely indispensable.
However......
Wang Juan didn't appreciate it, he waved his sleeves and snorted: "How can the old man be virtuous, how dare he teach you, but he has his own words and argues with you." β
Anyone who understands can hear that this is a sarcastic remark, deliberately satirizing Meng Yi's arrogance.
"Please!!"
Meng Yi made a gesture of invitation, and then listened to Wang Juan ask first: "The princes of Fang Jin have just broken and the world has been decided, can you know what the trouble is?" β
Meng Yi pondered for a moment and replied, "But the trouble of the Six Kingdoms? β
"Not bad. Although the six countries are destroyed, they are dead but not stiff, if the remnants of Zhao, Han and Wei once something happens, they can still be put down nearby. However, the land of Yanqi Chu is remote and difficult to govern, and if there is an unforeseen chaos, Xianyang is beyond the reach of the whip. Looking at this trend, it is similar to the place where Zhou destroyed Shang. β
Meng Yi nodded, did not deny it, but continued to ask: "Then according to the Prime Minister's words, what should I do?" β
Wang Juan replied: "If Great Qin wants to settle the world, the feasible law should follow the feudal partition, seal the princes of the country, and guard the remote frontiers, so as to stabilize the world, this is a long-term plan, not a temporary strategy." β
"Of course, it is incomprehensible to your rhetoric."
I have to say that Wang Juan's argument can be described as sharp, more than a hundred times stronger than the empty macro theory of those students, taking the difficulties of the empire as the starting point, and by the way, Meng Yi is short-sighted and does not understand the affairs of the world, but he vainly talks about the bad of the feudal system.
When many people in the DPRK and China heard the prime minister's words, they all boosted their morale, and they said it well, and they deserved to be the old prime minister, and they only used three words or two sentences to regain face for the doctoral students.
Just when everyone thought that Meng Yi didn't know how to refute, they heard Meng Yi laugh and said: "Haha~~, whether it is on paper or not, the prime minister will know after hearing it." β
"Hmph, the old man wants to listen, you are a stinky child, what kind of high-level strategy do you have?"
Meng Yi was also unceremoniously, pondered for a moment, and said: "Today, the prime minister is talking about governing the Tao, but the world is divided into two parts: the land of Zhao, Han and Wei is one, and the land of Yan Qi and Chu is one. The foundation of the argument is only in the distance of geography, and it is difficult to quell chaos. Dare to ask the prime minister, one day and two rules, the politics are many and chaotic, and the picture is chaotic? Trying to govern it? β
"Moreover, if the way of governing the world is determined by geographical distance and difficulty in pacifying chaos, and those who are easy to govern are strict, and those who are difficult to govern are lenient, wouldn't it be conniving at the lawlessness and chaos in distant politics? Where is the fairness in governing the way in this way? Where's the right path?! β
Wow!!
As soon as these words came out, the ministers immediately felt the breath of decisive battle, and the hall was silent.
And Meng Yi was fierce, and all the attacks were at the point, which made countless people breathtaking.
Everyone, including the First Emperor, looked at Meng Yi with surprised eyes, was this really from the mouth of the first loser in Xianyang? Hearing Meng Yi's words righteous, awe-inspiring, neither humble nor arrogant, Yanran looked like everyone, and thought he was dreaming.
At this time, Ying Zisu's eyes widened, and a trace of strangeness flashed between her eyebrows, she wouldn't have thought that how could this notorious loser say something shocking? Did you have auditory hallucinations?
Wang Juan was also surprised and impermanent, saying that the Meng family kid was a loser, and he couldn't read big words, but what he said just now, if he didn't have great wisdom in his heart, he would definitely not believe it.
"Meng family boy, the old man really underestimated you."
"There are many people who look down on me, and they don't care about you, Prime Minister, should you say it?" Meng Yi shrugged and said.
Wang Xuan's face froze, and Meng Yi's defense was absolutely sharp and impermanent, and it seemed that he had to deal with it carefully, so he immediately said:
"The right way in the world has been since ancient times. In the world of King Huiwen, he took Bashu, and led Bashu directly with the royal ministers for nearly a hundred years, how similar it is to the feudal princes! In the world of King Zhao, there is a marquis to govern the pottery land. Where the emperor is today, there is a royal brother Cheng Jiao who governs Taiyuan. Actually, too. And with the theory of governing the Tao, Wen Xinhou also has a practical theory, advocating feudalism, determining the size of the feudal country, and so on, why is there chaos! β
In the face of Meng Yi's harsh words, Wang Juan also did not give in too much, citing the past and discussing the present, showing his erudite and talented side, and at the same time, he unceremoniously angrily went back.
And there are many people in the court, clapping for Wang Juan, and asking the world, who has such a wonderful right? I'm afraid that Wang Juan is unsurpassed.
Looking at the situation in the DPRK and China, a layer of mist appeared on the face of the First Emperor, and it was obvious that this result was not what he wanted.
If you want to push through the old and bring forth the new, you must put Wang Juan down.
As the core figure of the feudal system, Wang Juan has the absolute right to speak, once he has nothing to say, then others are naturally happy to surrender and have nothing to say.
Meng Yi was as calm as ever, not panicked, he said indifferently: "Non-yes, non-yes, the words of the prime minister, but they take Wen Xinhou as the theory, but they don't know his learning, and they don't fit the avenue, how can it be used as the main point of argumentation?" Meng Yi said.
Wen Xinhou is LΓΌ Buwei, and his book "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn" is a classic for everyone, however, Meng Yi's words caused dissatisfaction among many people.
"Hmph, what a big breath, you are an illiterate loser, and you dare to say that the Lu family's learning is not in line with the Great Dao, what are you?" Someone said angrily.
"Lu Clan's learning, how can you judge it?"
"What a mouth that reverses right and wrong, and now he dares to say that his ancestors are classics, and he can't do it himself."
β¦β¦
For a time, a crowd of people rose up to attack it, most of whom were students of the Doctoral Palace; "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn" is their belief.
It's like the ancient Confucian scholars who regarded Confucius as a saint. If someone insults Confucius in front of them, they will also criticize him verbally and in the form of a war of words.
Wang Xuan's face was also gloomy, his heart was angry, he held back his anger, and asked: "Dare to ask what you said about the second person who is not in line with the Great Dao, what are those two points?" The old man would like to hear about it. β
Meng Yi stretched out two fingers and said, "First, it is not in line with the trend of the world for five hundred years. Since the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the rites and music have collapsed, the tile kettle thunders, the high bank is the valley, and the deep valley is the mausoleum; The changes in the country, the monarchy, the officials, the people, and the law eventually led to a great change in the trend. During this period, hundreds of schools of thought were surging, competing with each other to explore the road of governing the country, and finally caused a tide of change. β
"Second?"
"Second, who is the changer? It is to change the country, the way of governance, the livelihood, and the people. The so-called ever-changing is nothing more than a change in governance. The feudal princes divided the land, causing the world to be in constant war. Today's unification, when the sages are in trouble, the old brings forth the new, and the situation today is almost the same as that of Zhou's extermination? The kid didn't think so. β
Meng Yi's words were written in one go, and among the endless talks, there was no lack of grandeur, and his voice echoed in the hall, and everyone was silent.
"Fallacy, fallacy." Wang Juan said excitedly.
"Whether it's a fallacy, and listen to the juniors continue." Meng Yi argued with reason and said: "Since the three emperors and five emperors, the world has not been agitated, but there is no feudal system; Since the Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty, the vassal system was practiced and the ancient royal road was subverted. β
Sure enough, after hearing Meng Yi's words, the corners of the First Emperor's mouth pursed a curvature, with a faint smile.
"Therefore, the way to govern the country should be to change at the right time and bring forth the new; And Jiang Shang's policy of dividing the feudal is out of step with the times, if the feudal princes are repeated, hundreds of years later, the Warring States will rise together, is this what you want? β
"The chaos of the Zhou family, the fighting of the royal family, and the rekindling of the beacon fire, the root cause of this lesson of blood and tears is the feudal princes. Now, the world is unified, if you want to achieve the empire of all ages, you must abandon the princes and find a good way, so as to be the road of the empire. β
When Meng Yi's sonorous words fell, the atmosphere in the entire court was solemn, just because his arguments were perfect and impeccable.
"Well said!"
After listening to his words, Qin Shi Huang finally couldn't help but stand up and clapped his hands.
What he wants is to push through the old and bring forth the new, and Meng Yi's views coincide with him.
At this moment, his mood was as if he had been searching for a long time and finally learned the news, and instinct drove him to stand up and cheer for Meng Yi. Who would have thought? The person who reads the heart of the First Emperor is actually a young man who has been criticized by the world.
At this time, Meng Yi looked at Wang Juan again, and said mercilessly: "Dare to ask the prime minister, what the kid said just now is on paper?" β
ββ¦β¦β
Wang Juan's face was flushed, and he was speechless, if Meng Yi was all on paper, then there would be no real conspiracy in the world.
After a long time, Wang Juan said slowly: "I...... Lost!! β
As soon as these words came out, the entire government and the opposition were boiling.
