Seeing Meng Yi's eyes throwing him for help, Fusu knew that he could no longer "see death without help", so he had to take the initiative to stand up and block Li Si's anger for Meng Yi.

"Prime Minister, this matter is not Meng Yi's fault, it is my mastermind." Fusu opened his mouth and took all the blame on himself.

"Childe, how can you deceive the old minister about this? There are 12,000 medical officers, and the amount alone is astronomical, and you can hide such a big event from the ministers, which is really a bit too much! ”

"Prime Minister, this matter is my fault, I can't live with the Prime Minister, and please forgive the Prime Minister, I know that the old Prime Minister is dedicated to my Great Qin, and I can't bear to help Su to consume my Great Qin's financial resources, the old Prime Minister has a fist-fighting heart, and Fu Su is grateful. It's just that there is one thing that the prime minister doesn't know, and I haven't said anything to anyone, in order to dispel the prime minister's doubts, Fusu informed the prime minister of the matter. ”

Li Si's complaint was not that Fusu hastily increased the number of medical officers to 12,000 without telling him, but that Fusu was spending money and food uncontrollably, which only increased the financial pressure.

Since the beginning of the first emperor, Li Si has been serving as the prime minister of Great Qin, he knows the importance of money and grain taxes for a country, although there is a lot of money and grain accumulated by issuing bonds of Great Qin, but it can not withstand such uncontrolled consumption of Fusu, he is still alive now, if one day he is not there, Fusu has developed the habit of spending money like running water, who can stop Fusu at that time?

Although Fusu said that there was still something he hadn't told him, Li Si knew that what Fusu said was nothing more than a rhetoric to justify Fusu's own loss of money and food. Helplessly, Fusu had already spoken, and Li Si could only listen to Fusu patiently.

"I don't know what Childe said?"

"Prime Minister, in fact, these medical officials don't have much money, and the government treasury only needs to supply it for one year."

"As long as you have a year's salary, you don't have to deceive the old minister anymore." Li Si said suspiciously.

"Fusu did not deceive Prime Minister Li Cheng, this matter is true."

"Oh, please also ask Gongzi to say that the old minister is willing to hear the details." Li Si's eyes lit up and he asked eagerly.

For Li Si, what Fusu said at this moment is tantamount to a sound of heaven for him, once what Fusu said is true, it will save a huge amount of expenses for Daqin, and the annual income of 12,000 people is not too heavy for Daqin's finances.

"Prime Minister, the construction of the Great Qin Medical Center this time, Fusu originally intended to be for the common people in the world, so after these medical officers have been practicing in the Great Qin Medical Center for a year, they will be sent to our counties and counties in Daqin, and the counties where these medical officers are stationed will fund the construction." At that time, the remuneration of these medical officers will be composed of three parts, the county where the medical officer is located will bear 60%, and my Daqin Treasury will bear 30%, and the remaining achievement will collect the consultation fee from the local people who come to see the doctor, and the reason why the people pay 10% is to reduce the burden of the people, so that everyone in Daqin can afford to see the disease. ”

After listening to what Fusu said, Li Si nodded with satisfaction, but his face soon became solemn.

"Childe, although this move can save a lot of financial resources for my Great Qin Treasury, but I still have to pay thirty percent of the remuneration of the medical officers, can I increase the consultation fees of the people a little, so that my Great Qin Mansion Treasury can save more?"

Fusu shook his head a little helplessly, obviously what Li Si said surprised Fusu.

"I don't know if the prime minister has ever heard Mencius say, 'The people are precious, the community is secondary, and the monarch is light.'" What do you say? Fusu looked at Li Si with some disappointment and asked.

"Yu Gongzi, the old minister knows what Mencius said."

Li Si's doctrine of statecraft came from the Legalists, so he did not take Mencius's remarks very seriously, but despite this, Li Si still studied Mencius's doctrine, so he also knew the sentence mentioned by Fusu.

In Li Si's view, except for enriching the country and strengthening the army, and ruling the country by law, other theories are empty and weak, and at this time, Fusu mentioned Mencius's remarks, and Li Si naturally did not agree too much.

"Prime Minister, Fusu knows that the Prime Minister has always advocated governing the country with the Legalist theory, and the Prime Minister has acted in the same way, it is undeniable that the Prime Minister's doctrine has made great contributions to my Great Qin's sweeping away of the Six Kingdoms, but it has also brought profound disasters to the people of Great Qin, this Prime Minister should be the most clear, otherwise the Prime Minister would not strongly agree with the revision of the Great Qin Criminal Law, right?"

Li Si stopped talking when he heard this, but looked at Fusu with a somewhat sluggish expression, not knowing what he was thinking.

After a long while, Li Si spoke: "What Gongzi said is completely reasonable, the old minister believed in the Legalist theory in his early years, and when the Legalist said to help the first emperor unify the six countries, Li Si was even more devoted to the Legalist statement, until the death of the first emperor, the anti-Qin things in various places were frequent, and Li Si knew that the Legalist theory was also missing, so he strongly agreed with Gongzi's revision of the Great Qin Law." ”

"Prime Minister, Fusu thinks that no matter which doctrine, there are its strengths and weaknesses, can not be simply judged the merits, according to Fusu's point of view, the theory of governing the country should meet the expectations of the people, the prime minister suggested that the people's diagnosis fee will be increased, thinking that I have some financial resources in the treasury of the Great Qin, Fusu thinks that this matter must not be done, Mencius said that there is also an end, the people and the community, by no means the primary and secondary order, the people are the community, the community is the people, and the hearts of the people can sit firmly in this country."

"The people are the people, and the people are the people."

Li Si kept muttering the words that Fusu said, and his mood couldn't calm down for a long time, and the words that Fusu said were like the Nine Heavens Xuanyin, which removed a doubt that had always existed in his heart, and gave him a feeling of enlightenment.

Li Si is not the only one who has this kind of awareness, who is Meng Yi and all the officials who heard what Fusu said who doesn't feel this way?

After a while, Li Si bowed respectfully to Fusu, and then said: "Yu Gongzi, Shi is the old minister is stupid, hearing what the son said, like thunder in his ears, solved a big doubt in Li Si's heart, my Daqin people can get the prince to govern, it is their blessing, for the matter of the Daqin Medical Hall, the old minister no longer has any objections, and he should do his best." ”

When Li Si saw that after the death of the First Emperor, the people everywhere raised the banner of anti-Qin, and for a while he had doubts about the Legalist theory, but the Legalist theory helped the First Emperor to unify the six countries was clearly placed in front of him, and he could not believe it.

"Is it the Legalist who is wrong, or is the people wrong?" This question had been haunting Li Si's mind, and he was puzzled.

It wasn't until he listened to Fusu's views just now that Li Si understood the key to it, not that the Legalist doctrine was wrong, nor that the people were wrong, but that every doctrine had a criterion for judging, that is, the likes and dislikes of the common people.

A few days later, the sentence "The people are the people, and the people are the people." When it spread from the mouths of a group of ministers to the streets and alleys, it soon spread throughout Xianyang. Whether it is the streets of the market or the Goolan Washe, they are commenting on Fusu's words, and for a time the people are all happy, and Fusu's prestige among the people has soared.
