Chapter 326: The Learning of the Holy King
On the solemn hall, the ministers of civil and military affairs are divided into left and right. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
Today, it is just an ordinary routine court meeting, but, a little strangely, the position above the court is missing Li Si's figure.
Since ten years ago, after Yingzheng changed to the emperor, the court has also become a system of three princes and nine secretaries.
As the left minister, although his status is slightly inferior to that of the right minister Feng Quji, he is also a powerful figure with a high status, and his absence for no reason really surprised everyone.
"Your Majesty has arrived!"
Zhao Gao's slender voice sounded in the main hall, and the ministers who were still wondering where Li Si was going immediately quieted down and saluted Ying Zheng respectfully.
"Zhu Qing, let's get even."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Ying Zheng's gaze swept lightly between the ministers, but as if he had deliberately skipped the vacant Li Si, he waved his hand lightly to signal the beginning of the court.
The huge state apparatus will not stop because of the absence of Li Si alone. What's more, a court meeting like this is more just a faΓ§ade, and those who can be related to the country's fortune will not have the opportunity to be moved to this kind of occasion.
A long pilgrimage meeting will naturally not be anything interesting. Most of the time, it is Feng Quji, the right minister who is the head of the hundred officials, who is stating government affairs.
Finally, by the time the report was over, nearly an hour had passed.
On the high hall of the blue pool, Ying Zheng was sitting precariously, and he did not immediately comment on the things reported by Feng Quji as usual.
There was a moment of silence before Ying Zheng's voice sounded.
"Recently, I heard that there is a saying of the Holy King in Xianyang City, I don't know if you have ever heard of it?"
In Ying Zheng's words, I couldn't hear whether it was joy or anger. However, the usual plain words made the hearts of the ministers jump suddenly.
In Xianyang City, the name of Chun Yuyue is clear to many courtiers. Regarding the holy king's statement mentioned by Chun Yuyue, many people are also moved in their hearts.
"Still, these are the words of the market. It's better to see than to hear, today, I specially invited this Mr. Chunyu, but I want to ask for advice. β
All the ministers in the court are shrewd, and they naturally know the reason for Li Si's absence at this moment......
It's just that since Ying Zheng ascended the throne, he has purged the court several times, and almost the entire Qin State is Ying Zheng's Yiyantang.
Even the left and right ministers who are now in the middle of the court can only obediently obey Yingzheng's orders in the face of Ying Zheng's orders, and dare not have the slightest objection.
"Pass on Li Si, Chun Yu Yue." Without waiting for the ministers to think about it, Ying Zheng waved his hand directly and ordered Zhao Gao beside him.
"Biography, Zuo Xiang, Chun Yu Yue Hajk!"
The sound of the herald came from inside the main hall. However, after waiting for a long time, at the entrance of the main hall, Li Si and Chun Yuyue were still not seen.
It stands to reason that it is only a few dozen steps away, and it will be there in a moment. No matter how slow you go, you won't be there for so long.
For a while, a whispering sound also sounded above the court.
"Your Majesty, do you need the slave maid to send someone to take a look......" Seeing that the situation was not quite right, Zhao Gao also turned slightly sideways and asked for Yingzheng's opinion.
However, Ying Zheng didn't seem to hear it, just quietly looked at the empty palace door, and didn't seem to be anxious.
Seeing that Yingzheng did not react, the voice of discussion below became louder and louder.
"Chun Yuyue, meet His Majesty the Emperor!"
A shout suddenly sounded at the entrance of the hall, and Chun Yuyue, who was more than forty years old, slowly bowed down in the eyes of the ministers of different colors.
Ignoring everyone's gaze, Chun Yuyue took three steps and bowed, knelt on the ground in nine steps, and walked to the front of the blue pool.
Looking at Chun Yuyue's rigorous attitude, the faces of all the ministers in the court changed greatly.
This set of rituals is a gift for foreign ministers to meet the Son of Heaven.
However, in this era of decay of etiquette, such rituals have long been no longer applicable among princes. Over time, it will not be forgotten.
However, now that Chun Yuyue is so rigorous in using this gift to meet Yingzheng, in the eyes of these courtiers, it is undoubtedly a huge sycophant!
"This person is either ambitious or flattering!"
Many people's eyes showed a trace of disdain. They have lived in the court for a long time, and naturally they know better than Chun Yuyue what kind of person their first emperor is.
The only difference from everyone else is probably only Li Si, who is also respectfully saluting now.
Originally, as the left minister, Li Si naturally didn't have to make such a big gift. However, since Chun Yu Yuedu, who came with him, worshipped, he would fall into the wrong place if he performed ordinary etiquette.
Li Si, who lowered his head, was extremely remorseful in his heart at this moment.
However, it was not this mere worship that he repented of. On the contrary, Chun Yuyue's pedantic problem, in the past few decades, has not only not been changed, but has intensified.
"I hope Your Majesty won't be angry with me......"
At this time, Li Si didn't even dare to ask Chun Yuyue not to anger Yingzheng. I can only pray that Yingzheng's anger will not burn on him in the future.
"Mr. Chunyu, please get up. Zhao Gao, give a seat. Ying Zheng, who was above the main hall, made a false appearance, and ordered to Zhao Gao.
"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chun Yuyue saluted respectfully again before taking the cushion and sitting down.
"I have heard that Sir has always learned from the Holy King, and he is famous in the world. I don't know, what is the study of the Holy King? β
Ying Zheng's words that went straight to the point made Chun Yuyue happy. Secretly, Yingzheng is really a generation of Ming Jun, and he has the ancient style of asking questions with an open mind.
"Back to Your Majesty, the so-called Law of the Holy King is both the Law of the Ancient Teacher! It is also the ancestor of Confucianism, the words of self-denial and revenge. β
"The ancient law? Self-denial? I hope Mr. will explain it carefully! Ying Zheng's tone showed a slight hint of interest and continued to ask.
The joy on Chun Yuyue's face became more and more prosperous, and he continued: "Since King Wu opened the Zhou, the rule of the Duke of Zhou, one is in Lile, and the other is in the separation. β
As soon as Chun Yuyue's words came out, many courtiers immediately attracted them to talk in a low voice again.
It's just that, unlike Chun Yuyue, compared with Chun Yuyue, they pay more attention to the etiquette and music, what they are more concerned about is the method of separation.
Now, ten years have passed since the empire. However, all along, rumors about the division have been circulating up and down the court.
In particular, Ying Zheng's attitude of turning a blind eye made such rumors or calls intensify among the scholars and doctors in the court.
However, intimidated by the prestige of Ying Zheng, in this hall of words belonging to Ying Zheng, no one dared to take advantage of his career and put forward such an idea.
It's just that what kind of reaction will Ying Zheng have? The ministers were inevitably apprehensive at this moment.
