Chapter 8: Debates in court

When the ministers got up, the first emperor inevitably had to say a few more words before announcing the start of the imperial meeting.

"I am the emperor's position, on the main hall, the purpose of holding a great court meeting is twofold, one is to continue the legacy of the ancestors, the great court meeting is the tradition of the Qin State, it will be held every year at this time, and this year's significance is more important, I don't need to say more." Qin Shi Huang said.

"The other two, look at the demeanor of the younger generations. The Great Dynasty Meeting is an important means for our dynasty to select talents, and I hope that the younger generation such as Er can speak freely, just like ordinary debates, and there is no need to be taboo. Hereby, I hereby forgive him, and the speaker is not guilty. ”

Meng Yi's mood was naturally not here, he was so excited that he had already flown out of the clouds, and when he heard Qin Shi Huang's voice, he was already shocked and amazed, forgetting that he was in the Qin Dynasty, and said in his heart: "Wow, that's Qin Shi Huang, I am standing in the same hall as Qin Shi Huang, I won't be dreaming." ”

As a history student, he has infinite admiration for Qin Shi Huang, and now that he has seen the deity, he can't help but feel the same emotion.

……

After another polite remark, Qin Shi Huang said: "So far, what the widow said, the next thing is the time of young people." The Great Pilgrimage Party Begins! ”

The ministers took their seats, and the young juniors gathered in the debate area, eager to try.

The rules of the court meeting were very simple, the students debated, and the final decision-making power was handed over to the emperor and his courtiers, and the first place was finally selected.

After a short time, the debate topic of the Great Dynasty Meeting was announced:

"The Way of Imperial Governance!"

"Sure enough." Meng Yi said to himself.

For example, if it is decided today, the generals who follow the first emperor to attack the world, as well as the children and grandchildren under the emperor's knees, do not need to be rewarded and get their due rewards.

More than 800 years ago, Jiang Shang proposed the "sub-feudal system", which was taught by the world, and now the state system of the empire is all an impact on the sub-feudal system.

Most of the people present enveloped "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn" and regarded the sub-sealing system as the king.

And Qin Shi Huang unified the six countries and achieved thousands of achievements, how could he follow the ancient way? Restore the system of the Great Zhou? Therefore, seeking innovation is the most urgent thing for Yingzheng.

It's just that he didn't say it explicitly.

……

At the beginning of the court, a young prince stood up and said, "Student, Doctor Wang Bo, if you have this strategy, please advise Your Majesty." ”

"Come on!"

"Students dare to ask Your Majesty, since ancient times, the way of governance is geometry?" Wang Bo was the first to ask.

The First Emperor replied: "There are three thousand avenues, but they are finally divided into two, royal and domineering." ”

Wang Bo said again: "Your Majesty, do you know how to choose between the royal road and the domineering?" ”

The First Emperor did not answer, and could not answer. Seeing that His Majesty was silent, Wang Bo continued: "Today, the Great Qin is unified, and the majesty is all over the world, and His Majesty's merits are both virtuous and three emperors, and his merits are better than those of the five emperors, and he is the first person in the ages. Therefore, students think that the way to govern the style should be to give up the domineering and take the royal way. ”

"Why?" The First Emperor asked.

Wang Bo replied: "The four seas are peaceful, but the troubles are inside, the world of Kyushu, the situation is different, and it is difficult to rule for a unified system." However, "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn Period" is the royal road, if you want to settle the world, you must follow it, follow the Zhou system, seal many princes and princes, supplemented by good ministers, and push the rule according to the time and place, so that the world can be determined. ”

A word fell, and the temple was surprised.

Even many ministers whispered: "He is worthy of being the son of Prime Minister Wang Juan, who is erudite and talented, and has the style of his ancestors." ”

Everyone was amazed, but only one person was disdainful, and Meng Yixin said: "Fallacy." ”

Ying Zisu heard it in the dark, nodded slightly, she was optimistic about Wang Bo's talent, and her remarks did not disappoint her.

At this time, Ying Zisu didn't forget to pay more attention to Meng Yi's eyes, but he didn't expect that where this guy was yawning, he didn't listen to Wang Bo's statecraft at all, and he was quite unhappy with his contemptuous attitude.

In the sound of approval, Wang Bo sat in place with a proud face.

After a while, another person stood up and said, "Student, Doctor Gong Bao Beringzhi also has a word. ”

"Come on."

Bao Bailingzhi bowed down and said: "The world is unified, I am newly opened, now the emperor is in the world, the four seas are one, and the three generations of peerless, the prosperity of the annihilation of the feudal country, so that all the princes and founding heroes have the land of the feudal country, and they all have the power of the king of Qin." In this way, the land has its own owner, the people have its king, and His Majesty can also save the labor of governing the people. ”

His remarks are no different from what Wang Bo said.

However......

They may not know the holy will, but Meng Yi knows that the reason why Qin Shi Huang titled this debate is: The Way of Imperial Governance. It is because Yingzheng saw the disadvantages of the sub-feudal system.

If it is unified today, and then divided, it will inevitably step in the footsteps of the Zhou Dynasty, and decades later, hundreds of years later, the descendants of the future generations will suffer from themselves, and history will be staged again.

Because, the purpose of the first emperor to convene a great court meeting was to seek a new way to govern the world, but this group of stupid idiots still tried to trick the emperor to continue to divide the seal, which is simply stupid.

I'm afraid that the government and the opposition are up and down, and only Meng Yi understands Yingzheng's thoughts.

At this time, another person stood up without long eyes, Meng Yi glanced at it and shrugged his shoulders, it must be someone from the Doctor's Palace, and he said, "Student, Uncle Sun Tong of the Doctor's Palace has something to say." ”

"Say!!"

"The student is a cloth cloth traveler, feeling the pain of the world's loss of governance, and now the chaos is decided, the world thinks about governance, the displaced people think of returning, I implore Your Majesty to divide the princes, we are willing to be a good assistant, so that the Quartet has governance, and the head of the Qianqian has a return. In this way, the world is also very lucky. Shusun Tong said.

"The heart of the people is the heart of heaven, Your Majesty makes it divided, you can win the hearts of the people, and the people are the foundation of the world, our generation, we are willing to serve the work of dogs and horses, the hearts of the people and the people are all known, and the world should be prosperous and peaceful."

The students who participated in the court meeting this time were mostly taught "LΓΌ's Spring and Autumn Period", and the so-called royal policy is the sub-sealing system.

Subsequently, many people put forward the idea of a sub-feudal system, but no one raised any objections.

……

When Qin Shi Huang heard that all of them were imitating the ancient system, he couldn't help but feel a little unhappy in his heart, but he didn't show it.

But at this moment, among the many juniors, a person's voice sounded particularly "piercing": "Shameless, such a dog's barking strategy of governing the world is embarrassed to say, it is simply humiliating." ”

That's right, this person is Meng Yi. He sat in his seat, tired of listening, and couldn't help but say something.

His piercing remarks fell on the ears of the others, and they were immediately attacked by a group.

On the contrary, Qin Shi Huang showed a strange expression.

"Meng Yi, this is a big court meeting, and the court is full of vulgar words, which is really immoral." Seeing that the opportunity had come, Wang Li immediately stood up and reprimanded Meng Yi. "I am here to advise on the way to deal with it, and you have openly insulted those here, and this act is a crime of disrespect."

But I saw Meng Yi replying: "At the court meeting, speak freely, why is it a sin?" Besides, Your Majesty has said that the one who speaks is not guilty. ”

"Isn't it ridiculous that a person who only knows how to spend all his time drinking and not knowing big characters will bark and talk about our words in vain?" Li You also said unceremoniously mockingly.

……

For a time, Meng Yi became the target of the students.

Before going out, Meng Tianqian told him not to talk nonsense, but he just didn't listen, and now he has become their target.

was attacked by a group of people from the Doctor's Palace, and Meng Yi didn't care about it at all.

He stepped forward, neither humble nor arrogant, audience the courtiers and students, and then saluted Qin Shi Huang, and said: "The boy Meng Yi knocked on His Majesty, and listened to their words, and the boy did not dare to agree." ”

Hearing that Meng Yi had other ideas, the First Emperor asked affectionately, "Meng Yi, do you have any other strategies for governing the world?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, whether it is a policy to govern the world, the kid does not dare to be high, but he can also be called a family." Meng Yi said.

For some reason, when the First Emperor saw Meng Yi, he had an indescribable feeling of joy in his heart, although this kid had a bad reputation, he always gave people an open-minded and bright heart.

"Then tell me about it?"

At this time, Meng Yi retorted: "Listening to their words, it is really ridiculous, called the Heavenly Heart and Heavenly Providence of the World? As everyone knows, it's just a group of selfishness. ”

"Nonsense!" Someone immediately stood up and said.

"Tell me if it's nonsense or not." Meng Yi said: "During the Warring States period, it was a good thing for you to enter the office. However, the Warring States soldiers are strong and frank, no matter what the policy is, what they say comes from the bottom of their hearts. Today, when the court will discuss the governance policy, you can agree with the feudal princes in unison, and no one disagrees? Isn't that weird? ”

"It's because of ......"

Without waiting for him to explain, Meng Yi said: "Now that the six countries are all destroyed, a group of dogs and flies have lost their support, and they feel that they are not worthy of His Majesty's great use, so they only want more princes in the world to find a place to stand, which has no harsh meaning." ”

"However, you ridicule other people's dissent, and prefer to play with the world's big plans as a pleasure, in the name of the people's discussion of heaven, and plot your own way out, but you have to be embarrassed!!"

Meng Yi's words were sharp and in one go, which can be described as a blockbuster, and everyone in the audience was stupid.

Everyone said that he was a loser and illiterate, but who was illiterate could say these words.

Win Zisu also looked at Meng Yi incredulously, the outside world said that he was uneducated, how could he say such a different way?

Meng Yi's words, where is the rebuttal, it is simply a slap in the face, especially the face of those old-fashioned students and ministers.

At this time, before the students could reply, some courtiers could not sit still, they got up angrily, forgetting that this was a big court meeting, and they could not speak casually: "Ignorant children, a bunch of nonsense." ”

"The dog barks, there is no nonsense, and he dares to deny the policy of the sages, and the talk of the concubine is not enough to conspire with it."

"This is an opposition discussion, and it is not a political discussion."

said that it was a contest between the younger generation, but as a result, those ministers became excited, angry and angry, which is really an unprecedented picture.

Seeing this, Qin Shi Huang did not stop it, but let it happen, Ying Zheng smiled secretly: "It's a little interesting." ”

Meng Yi didn't think so, but provoked and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, whether the words of the kid are unruly and ambitious, why not argue?" If the boy loses, he should kowtow and apologize; If the kid wins, I'm going to decide the first place. ”

The first place is the emperor's final say, and after the ministers asked for instructions, they saw Yingzheng's approval and said, "Okay, as you wish." I don't know how to argue? ”

"It's very simple, you guys go up together, the boy is willing to fight the ministers."

Wow!!

As soon as these words came out, the court was boiling, and he singled out everyone, including Ying Zheng, Fusu and Ying Zisu, and everyone was stunned.

Everyone's eyes looked at Meng Yi, and said in their hearts, this kid is crazy.

At this time, the old prime minister Wang Juan rose up angrily and said: "What an arrogant boy, the old man will first come to learn your skills, and see if you really have a three-inch tongue?" ”

"Prime Minister, please!!"
