Chapter 20: Birthday Banquet, Hibernation Behemoth Appears
This chapter is the starting point of the greatest conflict in the court, but it takes a lot of effort.
The restoration of the dark tide and the book burning order were an important turning point for Daqin to be crowned as a violent Qin, and also laid various dark mines for the historical Daqin.
There are many characters involved in this chapter, and there are Zhou Qingchen, Chun Yuyue, Shusun Tong, Kong Kun, etc. in the Doctor's Palace alone, but it may be a little obscure to read.
This chapter is written with great care, so don't miss it as much as possible!
At the very least, don't think of it as a poison point.
======
Today, the whole palace is jubilant.
In addition to the important ministers of the court, the seventy-two doctors of the Doctor's Palace were invited to attend the birthday banquet of the First Emperor.
In the eyes of the courtiers of the old Qin State, this is the tradition of respecting the virtuous from the Qin State.
At the beginning of today's feast, the doctors were surprised to find that the emperor had suddenly aged and his beard was gray and his face was gloomy.
Zhou Qingchen, the doctor's servant, was in charge of the affairs of the doctor's palace, and had the most contacts with the imperial city and various official offices, and he also had the deepest understanding of Qin Zheng and the hard work of the imperial monarchs and ministers among the doctors.
Seeing the emperor so haggard and senile today, his heart was unbearable, so he stood up and said loudly with his hands:
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to say."
"Good. Say. Emperor Yingzheng smiled indifferently.
"Your Majesty's ......"
Zhou Qingchen's clear voice swayed in the hall, "The minister heard that since last winter, there have been many discussions in the government and the opposition, saying that Qin Zheng has all kinds of shortcomings, and even predicting the difficulties of Qin Zheng with astrological signs.
I think this is a big fallacy!
Rely on Your Majesty's divine spirit to calm the world.
The southern expedition to Baiyue, the northern imperial Huns, and the places where the sun and the moon shine are all called subordination.
The world is unified, the vassal states are changed into counties, everyone lives and works in peace and contentment, and there is no disaster of war......
This great feat will be passed down through generations.
Since ancient times, the three emperors and five emperors have not been as good as Your Majesty!
Your Majesty need not be anxious and heavy, and there is no need to be burdened by some distractions. ”
Thousands of wears, but sycophants don't wear!
A piece of sycophant ironing of the first emperor's dragon heart is happy, and it is extremely refreshing.
In the eight years since the unification of the world, the centralization of power, the three princes and nine secretaries, and the county system are the masterpieces of the great first emperor under great pressure, who overrode public opinion and forcibly implemented it with the power of the lord.
It can be described as a masterpiece of painstaking efforts, and it is of course extremely pleasant to be affirmed and supported by the ministers.
Like a painter, the most proud painting is criticized as worthless; A novel by a small author who has worked hard has been trampled on the body, and it is strange that the mood can be refreshing!
"Good! For the words of the servant, I drink a knight! Emperor Yingzheng high-fived and laughed.
"Long live the Doctor's servant shot!"
The ministers were moved by Zhou Qingchen's frankness, and the hall cheered.
……
"Zhou Qingchen is openly flattering, and it's a big mistake!"
A discordant roar, overwhelming the group sound, and the hall was stunned.
Dr. Chun Yu Huo Ran left his seat and pointed directly at Zhou Qingchen and said, "Qingchen is not ancient in the present, disrespects the royal way, faces the emperor, and bewitches the world, this is a big fallacy!" ”
After Chun Yu Yue reprimanded him proudly, he immediately turned to the emperor's throne and bowed his hand, "I heard that the minister ......
Since the Yin Dynasty and the Zhou Dynasty ruled the world for more than 1,000 years, they divided their sons and daughters into meritorious heroes, as their own auxiliaries and guarded the center.
Now His Majesty has the sea, but the children of the Ying family are horsemen, in case there is a rebellion and there is no auxiliary wing, who will come to the aid of His Majesty?
If you don't learn the practices of the ancients, you can still do it for a long time, it's unheard of! ”
Chun Yuyue ignored everyone's shocked gazes, and arched his hand and said loudly:
"The minister and the twenty-three doctors wrote by name, and then asked to end the county system, follow the example of the Xia Shang Dynasty, and push the fiefdom to build the princes.
Those who do not learn to emulate the ancients for thousands of generations have never heard of it! ”
"The ministers seconded it! Things are not learned from the ancients, and those who can last a long time have not heard of it! ”
More than twenty doctors shouted in unison, and the hall was suddenly shocked and silent.
"Boom ......"
The First Emperor finally had a birthday, but when he was celebrating, he really exploded with a thunder that shook the heavens and the earth, and the world was discolored.
The joy of the birthday banquet suddenly became treacherous.
The biggest confusion of the imperial officials is that after eight years, this group of doctors suddenly jumped out and insisted on the county system, what kind of forces are behind it?
Otherwise, even if a celebrity is an official, how can he be so uncontrollable and dare to attack the established national politics with such a strong and arrogant statement?
……
"Chun Yu Yue's words, eating the ancient is not transformed!"
Abolishing the division of feuds, and the county system is the iron-blooded proposition of Zuo Prime Minister Li Si.
Thin and cold, Li Xiang's body swayed like a hemp stalk, but his voice was golden and jade, and the sound was rolling.
"Back then, before the bones of King Wu of Zhou were cold, there was a great disaster, and the victims were the princes!
What about Gongwei Tianzi? What about defending the royal family?
The princes are like enemies to each other, attacking each other but not forbidden, beggar-thy-neighbor and trampling on the people's livelihood......
For hundreds of years, the princes have been divided, the soldiers have been fighting, the wars have not stopped, and the people have no livelihood.
All this, aren't the feudal princes the bane of the world?! ”
Li Si's words were painful, and what he said was the key point of the princely system, and the expressions of the ministers changed again.
A large group of courtiers and doctors were buzzing with each other.
"As far as today's theory is concerned, Chun Yu Yue Ming is crying out for the emperor, but in fact, he is making a name for the princes!
Li Si continued to say coldly, "The county system of Daqin County has been implemented for eight years, 'one rule in China, no two laws for the people', and the people of Qianshou all over the world are well-being. What is the intention of such an abrupt attack?
The old family of Shandong is violently restored, and the others are vigorously advocating the princely system, isn't it colluding? ”
……
"That's too much!"
Chun Yuyue's face turned red, and he said angrily, "Most of the old clans of the six countries of Shandong have moved to Xianyang and become ordinary households, how can they be restored?" It's very inappropriate for adults to criticize their hearts! ”
"Heart-wrenching! Big inappropriate! The group of doctors shouted in unison.
……
"The restoration of the world, who will punish the heart?"
Feng Quji's cold and bright voice sounded again, "The old minister is the household registration of the world, and he knows very well about the nobles of the six countries!"
Chun Yuyue said that most of the old clan moved into Xianyang, which is a big mistake! What are the facts?
It has been eight years since His Majesty the Emperor issued the edict of the nobles of the six countries. There are only more than 1,000 households!
Where did the great nobles of the Six Kingdoms go? Run!
Chu Guoxiang clan, Jing clan, Zhao clan, Qu clan, Korean Zhang clan, Qi Guotian clan, Wei Guo Wei clan, Zhang clan, Chen clan, Zhao Guo Zhao clan, Wu clan, Yan Guo Ji clan, Li clan, etc., all the great nobles of the Six Kingdoms fled and hid!
Dog day!
The old man should have known that these bird clans were evil and harmful to the people and plotted to restore, and they should not have left any of them!
Dog day! ”
Sven's Feng Qujian actually scolded at the court meeting.
……
"Your Majesty, the minister has a discussion."
The eighth generation of Confucius's descendant, Confucian leader, Wentongjun Kong Kun, finally spoke.
"Say."
Emperor Yingzheng said a faint word.
"The minister thinks that this should not be suspicious of the Confucian doctors who obey the princely system.
Of course, the Confucian doctors advocated the princely system, but it was different from the restoration of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms.
The ministers pursued the princely system and advocated that His Majesty's children should be the princes.
The nobles of the six countries were restored, and they tried to restore their own social institutions, and the similarities and differences here are self-evident.
In line with the proposal of Wang Juan, the previous prime minister of Great Qin, to send His Majesty's heirs, Ying clans, and meritorious ministers to remote places in Yan, Qi, Chu and other countries, and let them guard all parts of the country in order to maintain the stability of the country.
This is very different from the restoration of the nobility of the Six Kingdoms.
Dare to ask Your Majesty to take a clear look. ”
"It makes sense." Emperor Yingzheng slapped the case and said loudly, "There are no ministers and doctors, as long as they speak in the court, they all talk about politics and have nothing to do with them." If Wentongjun has a topic, it doesn't hurt to say it. ”
……
"Minister, Doctor's Uncle Sun Tong forwarded the Shandong Wanderer Chapter!"
A word fell to the point, and the temple was surprised.
The courtiers, the kings and ministers, are for the court.
The traveling bachelor is a common person, so it is a discussion of the people.
There is no fixed procedure for the opposition and the people's deliberations, and they are not included in the deliberative system of the monarch's "lower council".
Presented in the form of a book, it is often the most important of the people's opinions, or it may even be regarded as a kind of providence.
Suddenly, there was a wild discussion chapter, and the meaning here was unpredictable, and the ministers of the main hall were immediately as quiet as a valley.
"There is a wild discussion of the chapter, and it can be read in the hall." The Emperor spoke.
"Obey the edict."
Shusun Tong unfolded a volume and recited it aloud, "There are two hundred and thirteen Shandong travelers waiting for the ministers, and the emperor is playing:
The chaos was initially decided, the world thought about governance, and the displaced people thought about returning. I, the cloth cloth travelers, feel the pain of the world's lack of treatment.
For this reason, I implore His Majesty the Emperor and the feudal princes, and we are willing to be good assistants, so that the Quartet will be governed and the heads of Guizhou will be returned. In this way, the world is very lucky! ”
After reciting, Shusun Tong added loudly, "The heart of the people is the heart of heaven."
Scholars are the foundation of the world, and those who have the heart of scholars win the world!
The minister agrees with the proposal of the world's scholars! ”
"The ministers agree with the Wanderer's Chapter!" The doctoral chair echoed.
"It's just a group of petty selfishness, what kind of heavenly will can you talk about the world's scholars?" Wenchen District suddenly sneered and teased.
"Whose words are heart-wrenching! On politics! Uncle Sun Tong shouted back.
"The old man is weak! Then he replied. ”
Although he is weak and old, his spirit is still strong.
Originally, at the end of the Warring States Period, famous and unruly, he was famous all over the world for not worshipping the King of Qin.
Unexpectedly, by accident, he actually took charge of the Black Ice Platform, the most mysterious institution in Daqin.
Suddenly left the marquis's seat and stood in an open place, and said loudly to the sinking seat area, "Nine times out of ten, you, including the old man, have been cloth clothes to study in other countries.
Today, isn't it strange that 213 scholars can agree with the feudal princes in unison, and none of them disagree?
The reasons for the period are self-explanatory.
Now that the six countries are all destroyed, a group of people from the dog and fly battalion have lost their support, and they feel that they are not worthy of the emperor's usefulness, so they only want more princes in the world to seek a place to stand.
People seek to make a living, and they are blameless. If they don't fit this kind of character, they prefer to play with the world's plans as a pleasure, and in the name of the people's discussion of the heart of heaven, they are really planning their own way out, which is honestly not selfish!
Everyone, let's say, the old man's argument, punish the heart? On politics? ”
At this time, he did not make a speech right, but made a polemic, and for a while he saw the old style, and the hall was silent and silent, forgetting to applaud.
……
"The son of the retainer Fu Su has a play."
As soon as the eldest son of the emperor stood up, the eyes of the ministers immediately lit up.
Fusu has a generous temperament, a young man, and is both civil and military.
Compared with the young Yingzheng of the year, the courage and ambition of the brave and brave are indeed incomparable, but in terms of open-mindedness and plainness, Fusu has a different atmosphere.
I saw Fusu bow to the emperor's throne and said solemnly, "The world is unified, and the rebellion of the princes is ended, and the county system should be fully implemented."
However, it is very easy to fold, and if things are slow, it will be round, and it will be difficult to achieve results.
Erchen thinks that people are selfish.
Waiting for the general is the pursuit of almost everyone's struggle.
Erchen believes that conditional restrictive separation, which is a necessary excess.
Take out one-twelfth of the land, divide the soldiers and nobles and restrict the private soldiers, and the internal resentment within the empire will be discharged seven or eight out of ten, which is a soldier who surrenders without a fight.
The fiefdom was divided and surrounded by eight or nine out of ten central counties like tigers, and when they found signs of chaos, they immediately bloodily suppressed and canceled the fiefs and titles.
Daqin Society is safe! ”
"Color......
"The eldest son has a great weather, and the Great Qin Society is safe!"
In the two major regions of civil and military, some people shouted and praised.
Only Ying Zheng suppressed the monstrous anger, his face was expressionless, and his eyes were wandering.
……
"Hu Hai has a play!"
A clear voice shook abruptly.
The ministers were surprised, and the courtiers in the back row stood up and looked forward.
The emperor couldn't help laughing: "You kid dare to play?" Good! Have the guts, said. ”
The emperor's voice fell, and the hall swirled brightly: "As a prince, Hu Hai does not seek his own interests, but only wishes for the rule of the world!" Hu Hai is not a feudal prince, only a good minister of Great Qin! ”
Hu Hai lost face in the martial arts arena, and at the birthday banquet, he was instructed by Zhao Gao to obey the holy will and make Yingzheng happy.
"Color......
There was no political opinion in the hall, and a burst of laughter erupted.
……
"Death please."
"The prime minister said it all." Emperor Yingzheng still smiled faintly.
Li Si's solemn and clear voice echoed in the hall: "Today's birthday banquet, unexpectedly, because the doctor shot Zhou Qingchen's approval of Qin Zheng, the doctor Chun Yu Yue criticized the county system, and asked to pursue the princely system again."
The government has been stable for eight years, and to be able to make such an astonishing argument suddenly, Li Si thinks that things are unusual.
Poetry goes: The wind and rain are like obscurity, and the rooster crows.
The nobles of the six countries merged with the evil and wanted to restore, the government and the opposition talked about wanting to do the royal road, and even the astrological rumors, the dead Qin carved stones, the assassins came out one after another, and the nobles fled, all of which proved that the dark tide of the restoration of the old system was raging.
When the dynasty discusses politics, it is not a crime, but if it can be invited again after eight years, there will also be a big dark tide of wind and rain like obscurity.
The so-called hurricane started at the end of Qingping, and such a violent momentum could not cause it to spread into a disaster.
In ancient times, the world was scattered, and it was impossible to rule the world at once, so there were many princes, and those who talked about it worshiped the past and harmed the present, and made a big statement to confuse the facts.
Scholars and sons are all private, and the study of the state cannot be established.
Now that I am Daqin, I have decided on a statue of black and white, but private scholars still teach illegal learning.
However, when an official decree is issued, everyone criticizes it according to their own learning.
People are wrong-minded, and when they go out, they talk about it, promote their own school to gain fame, uphold heresy as a maverick, make noise and slander.
If such evil winds are not stopped, the authority of the state will be dispersed at the top, and private friends will gather at the bottom.
The nobles of the Six Kingdoms were still able to make waves after losing their country, and they relied on this wind.
Therefore, the old minister asks Your Majesty:
It is forbidden for people to discuss politics in private, and go to the temple to discuss the system, so that the state affairs and powers are unified. ”
"Color!"
The old ministers of the empire drank in unison.
The Doctors were silent, and none of them tried to speak.
"In view of this, the old minister asks to enforce the book burning law."
Boom
Boom
A thunderbolt on a sunny day, the sky cracked.
Like a thunderclap, the doctors stood up and stared at the emaciated prime minister in astonishment.
"Extinct civilization, exterminate heavenly principles, can't ......" Kong Kun screamed in despair.
"Talk again!"
Yingzheng Gujing has no waves, "Li Si and Fusu stay!" ”
"Scatter!"
The fat CRRC Fu ordered Zhao Gao to make a sharp sound.
