After hearing this, Qin Gong became a little impatient: "It's so complicated to make a dish? It's a waste. Zhonglang, you are not allowed to eat this kind of dish! Gongzi Qian, what are you going to do when you buy the figurines and hands of the six stores? ”

Gongzi Qian hurriedly replied: "Lord! The minister did not dare to hide it. The minister just wanted to help the implementation of the new law, and had no other intentions. ”

After Qin Gong was stunned for a moment, he asked, "Oh, you also support the new law?" ”

Gongzi Qian returned very reverently: "Lord! The new law is a good way to change the bad habits and bad customs of the people. Although most of the people who committed the crime did it unintentionally. If you are punished after committing a crime, you will be resentful. A lot of resentment is certainly not good for Qin. For this reason, the ministers bought more figurines and hands and gave them to the hell orders. After the execution, it will be given to the people who have been tortured to dispel public resentment and help the implementation of the new law. ”

After listening to Gongziqian's answer, Gong Qin's good impression of Gongziqian increased greatly, so he asked, "Do you think there is a need to implement the new law?" ”

Gongzi Qian replied very simply: "Yes." Lord! It's like cooking. A beautiful dish must not only have the best main ingredients, but its auxiliary materials, cooking utensils, fire, and eating utensils must be matched with the best main ingredients. If one is missing, or that is inferior, no matter how good the chef is, it will make people feel awkward.

The minister is ignorant, and after thinking about it, he thinks: Governing the country is like cooking. Agriculture, mulberry, and conquest are the main materials; Qin folk customs, customs, customs, and feelings are condiments, cooking utensils, fire, and food utensils; If the main and auxiliary are missing or not compatible, their country is not considered a strong country. Lord! Qin is no matter how strong it is, but if the folk customs are rude, how can they serve the Six Kingdoms? If the lord goes to a strong country and encounters the people, the people will open their mouths and speak foul language; As soon as he entered the ground, the country was full of ash and debrass; As soon as you enter the house, the couch is horizontally and vertically eight; Do you still think he's strong? ”

After hearing this, Qin Gong was silent for a long time. Gongziqian's words really spoke the essence of Gongsun Ying's new law, which made Gong Qin look at Gongzi Qian with admiration. After pondering in his heart, he said, "I didn't think of it? Your six years of thinking have made you a great progress. The essence of the new law has been explained so thoroughly by you. It's getting late today, so you'll walk around with the widow tomorrow! ”

Gongzi bowed his hand and thanked: "Thank you for the gift of the lord!" ”

Half a month later. Qin Gong returned happily. As soon as he entered the central hall, he summoned the great Shangzao, Lang Zhongling, Zongzheng Ling, and the general.

As soon as the four of them entered the central hall, they saw that Qin Gong was so red and refreshed, and they thought that the immortality technique had made great progress. After Zong Zhengling saluted, he excitedly congratulated loudly: "My lord! It's only been half a month, and the lord's longevity technique has shown such an effect, which is really Qin's great blessing! Congratulations to the lord! He Qinye! ”

Qin Gong laughed, and Lang Lang said: "What kind of immortal technique has the widow practiced in this half month. The widow only went out of the palace once, and went to Zheng County, Chongquan, Liyang, and Lantian for a walk. ”

When Gongsun Ying heard this, he was taken aback! As soon as he was about to speak, he was preemptively played by the white tiger: "Lord! The minister is a rough man, and he is sixty years old. Please forgive the ministers for their blunt words! The lord is the responsibility of the country, how can he betray the ministers and act privately? Lang Zhongling. You, you audacity! How dare you hide such a big thing? In case something happens to the lord outside, how do you deal with the kingdom? All, to be punished for you! ”

Jing Jian was about to open his mouth to explain, but was preempted by Qin Gong: "General! The widow pretends to be a low lord and goes out on patrol, with Gongzi Qian and San Lang guarding, how can there be any accidents? However, this time out of the palace, the widow knows the great effect of the new law and the effect is good! ……”

Gongsun Ying didn't hear a word of the lord's perception of the trip and his praise for the new law. He was just thinking about it, why did the lord even hide it from Jing Jian and go out privately? How did Gongzi Qian keep up with the lord? Why did the lord change his attitude towards Gongzi's piety? After thinking about it, only one thing is certain: the new law did not explain the details to the lord. When the lord saw the huge number of executions in various places, coupled with the Xianyang Prison sentence record mentioned by Jing Prison, this made the lord suspicious. The lord was suspicious, and although he returned with doubts, he was suspicious after all. A suspicious word made him think about it.

When the lord excitedly and proudly finished talking about what he had seen and heard about leaving the palace. Wei Gong Sun Ying did not praise him, but arched his hand and said: "Lord! Qin can't be left without an owner for a day. As soon as the lord leaves the palace, it will be half a month? And this time out of the palace, not only the general, Zongzheng Gong and the ministers didn't know, but even Lang Zhongling, who was in charge of the affairs of Xianyang Palace, didn't know, isn't this the lord Don't you believe the ministers? Since the lord is so light on the ministers, no matter how well the new law is implemented, the ministers are afraid that the ministers will also despise the lord in private. Please think twice! In the future, we must no longer hide from our ministers. The lord of the Qin family is also in one body! The minister didn't dare to think about it. ”

Qin Gong is accustomed to Da Shangzao's outspokenness, and he feels very guilty about starting to have doubts about Da Shangzao! He said apologetically: "Great Great, Great General!" The two Aiqing's outspoken words were very kind. The widow went out of the palace without permission from the ministers this time, which is indeed the fault of the widow. In this way, the widow promises never to do it again. And admit your mistakes and punish the four! ”

Zong Zhengling hurriedly bowed his hand and said: "The lord can change his mistakes so quickly and admit his mistakes straightforwardly, which is the great blessing of Qin!" As long as the lord no longer goes out privately, there is no need for punishment. The minister thinks, the three adults must think the same as the minister. Right? ”

What else did the other three ministers say, so they had to follow and say yes.

When Duke Qin saw that the four ministers were no longer speaking privately, he suddenly remembered that Gongzi was pious. He said to the four ministers: "Gongzi has been thinking about it behind closed doors for six years, and his knowledge has grown greatly. Especially in terms of the incisive understanding of the new law, there is also the strong support of the body. The widow thought he could give him something specific to do. What do you think? ”

The crowd was silent. Duke Qin had no choice but to name Gongsun Marting. Gongsun Ying thought for a while and said, "Gongzi is very good at his skills, weapons, cars, and horses, so he will temporarily be a supervisor in the Tsukasa Mansion, can I?" ”

Qin Gong wanted to say something, but he couldn't say anything. After all, Gongzi Qian had no actual achievements, so he nodded in agreement.

Childe Qian is overjoyed! He does not underestimate the position of supervisor. This is the representative of Dashangzao in the national instrument system. This position is generally held by someone who is reassuring to Tsukasaki. Gong Qin must have made a great effort, otherwise he would not have been able to do this position. Da Shangzao is not at ease with himself, otherwise he would not put himself by his side to supervise. He deeply felt the importance of winning over palace officials and servants. So he racked his brains and tried every means to buy the people around Qin Gong, Chu Nu, and Han Nu. He also wanted to buy the people around Da Shangzao, Da General, and Lang Zhongling, but unfortunately they all looked down on him and didn't even give him a chance to speak. He wants to flatter the great! Dashangzao does not talk about human feelings. In the end, he did what he liked and was desperately busy with his official work, which made Gongsun Ying really believe in Gongzi Qian. I think he's just a matter of understanding, think it through, and turn the corner. Within three months, the crown prince Fu Baihu fell ill, and the Fu position was vacant. Gongsun Ying also agreed to the proposal of the Duke of Qin and reinstated the prince's pious officials.
