Li Yuan's series of actions after returning to China plunged the Qin government and opposition into chaos, and this abnormal fluctuation was like throwing a stone into a calm lake.

The sky is unpredictable.

It is not intellectually possible to guess also.

In the historical records of the Qin State, the historian made such a judgment when summarizing a series of remarks and edicts after Li Yuan's return.

――。

No one knows about weishenme?

Treating dependent tribes such as Aries, Yiqu, and Loufu, Shenwu Emperor Li Yuan adopted a supportive attitude, giving land, giving preferential treatment, and helping them to get out of the predicament of extermination, and the reward of Qin was the gratitude of these small tribes, who joined the melting pot of Qin with admiration for the Qin people, fought for it, shed blood for it, and even died for it.

On the contrary, in the attitude towards the Xiongnu, Goguryeo, and Yamato, Li Yuan showed another side, he killed countless people, he was ruthless, he was indiscriminate, it can be said that Li Yuan's hands were stained with blood.

"It's a butcher!"

"That mad emperor of the Qin State is a murderer, and Amaterasu should take him away, so that he will be tortured by the evil ghosts in the shrine for eternity and cannot turn over." While the Qin army continued to march, the losers cursed viciously again and again behind their backs, but unfortunately, these spells not only failed to help them turn defeat into victory, but made them fall into the brink of life and death faster.

The remnants of the Huns, who were fighting with the Slavs for the nomadic lands of Zuihou in the Don Valley, whether they were victorious or defeated, Han Xin's cavalry was already eyeing the Ural royal line, pounced at any time, and gave the Huns only one way, and continued to be driven westward to the sea.

And on the peninsula in the east and west of Liao, in the south of Changbai Mountain. Goguryeo King Gao Zhumeng's day is not easy, the oppression of the Qin army is like a mountain, although the speed of the first-line flat push is not fast, but not rushing in means that there is no gap, for the Goguryeo people with a large gap in strength, there is almost no chance of turning the tables.

Of course, the Xiongnu and Goguryeo could still breathe and support, and Li Yuan never said in person that he would exterminate these two ethnic groups, but the Japanese were different.

Since Li Yuan's strict order was issued, starting from Chang'an. A sweeping sweep of the Japanese began vigorously, however, in this era, most of the Japanese who were able to travel across the ocean to the Qin State were bold adventurers, they were short in stature, their legs were particularly short, and their accents were different, so it was not very difficult to find out under the inventory of Fu's books.

Late September.

Qi Di. Langya County.

A sudden upheaval made the county, which had been quiet for many days, lively, and the operation of clearing the Japanese people was carried out in various places, but due to the lack of uniformity in the implementation standards, it also caused some misunderstandings. Among them, in Langya County, there are unlucky guys who look like Japanese people who are also locked up.

Qi Ren Ram Shou is one of the pond fish that has been reached.

Gongyang Shou is the leader of the Ram family, a famous Confucian school in Qi, and unlike the situation where public schools in Daqin replaced private schools, Qi people because Confucius, the founder of Confucianism, was here as a government school. Therefore, the disciples of Confucius and their disciples were numerous, and these made the coexistence of private and public schools. And gradually become the climate.

The doctrine of the ram is said to have originated from Zi Xia, one of the seventy-two disciples of Confucius. After six generations of Ram Gao, Ram Ping, and Ram Dare, Zuihou finally wrote a famous book "The Legend of the Ram in the Spring and Autumn Period", and the appearance of this book made the position of Confucianism in Qidi more consolidated.

Confucianism.

then the law is withdrawn.

In the academic field, you are no softer than on the battlefield, and the comments of Ram Shou and his disciples on current politics made the Qin officials who governed Qi very annoyed. This time, in the name of searching for the Japanese people, the county soldiers of Qin State went to the ram's house to make a fuss, and they didn't plan to do anything, but then, the ram students and the county soldiers fought fiercely because of the verbal conflict, and in a fit of anger, the county lieutenant who led the troops directly took the ram shou as a suspect of the widows.

This move.

Just like stabbing a hornet's nest, the Confucian students in Qidi, who had been dissatisfied with Confucianism for a long time, were so excited that they began to boycott schools, boycott classes, and occupy public schools, trying to pressure the county to release Ram Shou.

Coincidentally, Yuan Xu, the commander of Jimo County, Langya County, Qin State, was also a student of Ram Shou before, but Yuan Hao was not strong in his firm mind about Confucianism.

Feng Tang was a native of Zhongqiu, Zhao Di, and once served as the commander of the chariot and cavalry under the command of Su Jiao in Yunzhong County, and subsequently, Feng Tang was recommended as Qi Xiang, responsible for governing the internal affairs of Langya, Donghai, Dangjun and other places. Compared with the allusions of "Feng Tang Yi Lao and Li Guang is difficult to seal" in the early years of the Western Han Dynasty in history, the employment mechanism of the Qin State ruled out the possibility of Liu Bang dividing the sons and nephews as princes and kings, so a considerable number of official positions were also vacated in various places, and this just gave the opportunity to the children of commoners like Feng Tang.

Knowing that the Confucian students of the Ram School were making trouble, Feng Tang keenly felt that the meaning contained in this was not as simple as releasing the Ram Shou.

In this long letter, Feng Tang mentioned: The fundamental reason for the chaos of Confucianism in Qi is the problem of entering the office, because the selection mechanism of the Qin State mainly relies on the two ways of celebrities, village elders and public school examinations, which is equivalent to closing the door to enter the court as an official for students who enter private school.

Students can wait for one or two days.

In a year or two, even if they are impatient, they can stick to the ideals in their hearts, and they can still crusade with one voice against those wavering elements who are not strong-willed.

But when ten years passed, the unbearable Qin State in their mouths still firmly grasped the power of the imperial court, and the classmates they once looked down on gradually became officials in the county, and the depression that the Confucian scholars had deposited for a long time broke out.

While Feng Tang actively reported to the imperial court, Feng Xuan, who had the same surname as him, placed a jihua to lure the enemy, and the Qin army who came from the Jimo Sea took advantage of the night to arrest the families of the Confucian scholars one by one, and then divided them one by one, so that the Confucian scholars who were originally interested in one place completely lost their fighting spirit the next day.

The fees charged for Ram Shou's private education are also very expensive, and the Confucian students can concentrate on their studies, mainly because the family has enough financial support, and after the axe is drawn, this turbulent farce initiated by the Confucian students immediately subsided, and at the same time, the order from the imperial court also arrived.

Gongyang Shou, the great Confucian of Qidi Zuihou, was killed for inciting student unrest, and the entire Ram School was uprooted, and those Confucian students who participated in the turmoil were either sent to the West to fill the army, or directly imprisoned, waiting for them to have a long service career.

Feng Tang's excellent response also made him highly praised by the imperial court, especially under Feng Xuan's strong recommendation, Feng Tang was transferred from the position of Qi Xiang to Chang'an, serving as the commander of the CRRC Prefecture, this position was under the prime minister, mainly responsible for the handling of the daily affairs reported by the counties, and put forward his own suggestions, and his opinions will undoubtedly have an important impact on the next court discussion.

Qi Di Confucianism is a chaotic incident.

It was only a small episode in the national purges in the counties, and in these events, competent officials like Feng Tang were demonstrating their abilities, while incompetent people like Yuan Xu were found to be unqualified in the evaluation and removed from office.

The national politics of Great Qin are inadvertently changing.

This kind of change, in many cases, is inconspicuous and imperceptible, and as the initiator of this change, Li Yuan's real purpose is only one: that is, to change the mechanism of selecting and employing people.

In the past few months, Li Yuan has talked with hundreds of officials in the DPRK and China many times, and now he has learned from Yan Le and Menghu's Zhijing Department and Military Intelligence Department, so that he has a new plan for the future of Qin, and the Qin State, which is ruled by law and judged by law, after more than ten years of tranquility, the people's customs and morale in the country are gradually turning, and the most obvious manifestation is that human affection is higher than law and discipline, and this situation is not only reflected in the lawsuits and prisons, but also in daily affairs.

After Ji Di succeeded Chen Ping as prime minister, he was also worried about this trend, and when Li Yuan did not come back, this upright prime minister was like a lonely fighter, facing pressure from top to bottom alone. Now, he finally persevered to the return of the most powerful backstage.

"The future of the Qin State does not need the golden mean, it is a reward for merit, a punishment for excesses, and a punishment for crimes, this is the whole meaning of the country of laws, so I hope that officials at all levels will keep this in mind, not bend the law for selfishness, not be afraid of love, and not forget their public duties because of profit."

Under the court, Li Yuan's words were sharp and merciless, pointing to the deepest part of the hearts of hundreds of officials, before he was about to go on another expedition to the West, he wanted to use his words and deeds, and use a soul storm to lay the ideological foundation of the Qin State.

October is coming.

News came from the Middle East that the civil strife in the Roman Republic was coming to an end, and Fabian, who represented the conservative Shili, was criticized for misemploying people on the Carthage issue. The young Roman general Scipio had the support of more than half of the senators, and his ascension to the position of consul of Rome was a foregone conclusion.

With Scipio's ascension, the complex situation in the Mediterranean will become acute again, and it will be difficult for the Qin army to hide from the Romans for a long time in the secret operation of the Trojan training navy, and once Scipio wakes up to the purpose of the Qin army, the Roman fleet is very likely to take the lead in launching a sabotage war at sea.

Cut off the shipping lane.

The detention of merchant ships, the plundering of goods, and the intimidation of merchants into prohibiting them from trading with Qin and his allies would undoubtedly deal a serious blow to Qin's prestige, and weak allies such as Jews and Greeks would also cast their suspicious eyes on the Qin army.

To protect them, it was necessary to have a decisive battle with the Roman fleet? The Qin State did not have the right to decide, and this was what Li Yuan was most worried about. (To be continued......)
