That's the way it is.

Many things, many times, have nothing to do with whether you are willing to take responsibility, whether you dare to die generously, there is no relationship between half Qin and half taels, before you decide to make a dangerous move, it must be doomed, and countless people will be dragged into the water by your decision and pay a heavy price.

Qu Kuo endured humiliation and revenge for the country, and it can't be said that there is anything wrong, but before he decided to fight to the death and wanted to make a move against Zhao Ying, didn't he really think that this move would implicate many people related to him?

This kind of thing is no longer possible to investigate.

The fact is that after this incident broke out, all the people who had been friends with Qu Kuo before and had provided him with help and convenience suffered one after another.

If you want to concoct an excellent bow and crossbow, the production cycle is very long, and many materials are needed, such as beef tendon and other things, which are prohibited items in this era.

For example, beef tendon, horn, cowhide and other materials have strict processing processes.

Whoever dies of the cow and how it dies must be reported in time, and then the officials sent by the yamen will personally come to the door to check and verify, and then they can be slaughtered, and after the slaughter, the government will uniformly purchase materials that can be used to stop weapons and armor and other equipment, and the rest will allow the people to buy and sell freely.

In this case, it is not easy to get the materials to make a crossbow, especially this excellent strong crossbow.

But wealth can be channeled, and nothing is absolute.

In any era, there are always some people who can bypass the system and get something that ordinary people can't get.

This kind of thing, as long as people are still in charge, it cannot be completely banned.

For this situation, the people above know that as long as you don't be too arrogant, don't go too far, no one will chase after you and hold you back. But the problem is that you don't have an accident, especially if something big happens. Things like the assassination of the First Emperor and the assassination of the Emperor's eldest grandson, once they break out, then no one will run away!

All those who have raised their noble hands and given the green light for this matter can almost be regarded as accomplices!

The cost of this is unimaginable.

Under the full pursuit of the Black Ice Terrace, no one can hide the secret, and even if you can, others can bite you out. For this reason, there are countless people who have broken their homes and destroyed their families.

Many people don't even take it seriously and have forgotten about it.

But someone to help you remember!

In the past few days, every day, the family members of the prisoners knelt in front of the eldest son's mansion and begged bitterly, and blood came out of their foreheads. Zhao Ying didn't see any of these people, and in the end, he was so annoyed that he directly called the officers and soldiers in charge of public security in Xianyang County and expelled them directly.

Poor people will have something to hate.

At the beginning, if he had been shot to death with a crossbow, none of these people kneeling today were innocent.

……

Zhangtai Palace.

Looking at His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun who was striding away, Hei couldn't help but turn his head to look at the First Emperor on the side, hesitated, but couldn't help but speak.

"Your Majesty, is there really no need for Weichen to intervene?"

Speaking of this, Hei paused in his tone, secretly glanced at the reaction of the First Emperor, and saw that the First Emperor's expression was as usual, so he cautiously persuaded.

"Your Highness is young after all, and he has always been kind-hearted......"

The First Emperor waved his hand and said lightly.

"It's okay, let's take a look - I want to see how I, the imperial grandson, will choose in this situation......"

Hearing this, he silently withdrew his gaze and said no more.

It's just that from time to time, looking outside the main hall, his eyes are full of a trace of imperceptible worry.

The emperor's eldest grandson is benevolent and loves others, and is kind to others, which was originally one of the places where he admires the emperor's eldest grandson the most, but at this moment, he hopes more than ever that His Royal Highness the emperor's eldest grandson can be more ruthless and harder.

Because, he has been by the side of the First Emperor for decades, and he knows better than anyone the thoughts of His Majesty.

Today's move, which seems to be unfazed, is actually dangerous.

Once the emperor's eldest grandson makes a mistake, it may lead to many unpredictable changes.

……

At this time, Zhao Ying didn't know what he was about to face today.

He came out of the palace and went to the Jiangshan Society Division step by step to take a look around and look at the progress of the work on the side of the Jiangshan Society. The co-ordinator Wei Weiyang was temporarily transferred to the palace to revise the classics, but there were two left and right prisoners, and all the affairs were in order.

Seeing that Mr. Chun Yuyue was also there, he chatted a few more words in the past.

This old gentleman is very busy right now.

Recently, the old gentleman has been busy sorting out the materials collected from various places, and those Daqin storytellers, in addition to publicizing Daqin's policies and helping Daqin seize the high ground of local public opinion, are also collecting people's customs from all over the world.

These first-hand information is not only reliable information for understanding people's livelihood and public opinion, but also has great research value. Mr. Chun Yuyue is very scholarly, and has recently become more and more obsessed with these, and he has been working hard every day, faintly meaning to keep up with Confucius's "Poems".

In addition to this, he also has to teach and educate people.

Not only did he take the time to give public lectures in his own Xishui Grass Hall in the west of the city, sit and talk about Taoism, and try his best to spread the ideas of Confucianism, but also from time to time he went to the new school in the palace of the great general of the champion to personally check the learning situation of those young children of the royal family.

Although it is not allowed to teach Confucianism specifically, it is inclusive and has all theories, but the more so, the more it cannot be ignored.

If Confucianism wants to rise, seek its newness, and seek its change, it must take the initiative to seek change, and try to absorb the essence of each school with a pragmatic spirit. And looking at the whole world, there is no place that can compare to this new school.

It is an extremely rare opportunity for me to serve as the head of this new-style school. In this regard, he regarded it as even more important than the lecture on the side of the Xishui Cottage.

Therefore, it is also an unexpected joy to meet Chun Yuyue here today.

If it was in the past, it was usually a simple polite sentence between the two of them, and then Zhao Ying would sit down by himself and read the information that the old gentleman had recently sorted out, or the articles he had written.

Sometimes, I stop to debate and exchange ideas.

The stone of the mountain can attack the jade, Chun Yu Yue old Mr. is not anything else, this moral article, written really very level, and it is rare that at such an old age, he is not complacent, the article is becoming more and more pragmatic, and there is already a faint shadow of Legalism, Taoism, and even Mojia.

Even for Zhao Ying, it is of great reference significance.

But today, it seems to be the same.

"Wechen has seen His Royal Highness the Emperor's Eldest Sun—"

Seeing Zhao Ying walk in, Chun Yuyue immediately put down the brush in his hand, stood up, straightened his clothes, and bowed to Zhao Ying very formally.

"Today, can you say anything for Your Highness......

Seeing this, Zhao Ying couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, glanced at the old man with both hands, and smiled noncommittally.

"But you speak for those who kneel outside my door every day......

Chun Yu Yue: ......

Zhao Ying's words were too direct, directly skipping the discussion stage that he had painstakingly prepared for a long time, and directly entering the topic, which almost made him completely unable to do it at this time.

But looking at Zhao Ying's straight gaze, he couldn't force him to jump back again, and tell Zhao Ying what kind of benevolence and compassion and other things, so he could only nod a little stiffly and dryly.

"Your Highness is ...... wise"

Zhao Ying stopped smiling now, he looked at this Confucian leader calmly, the old gentleman who had successfully brought his own Ah Weng to the eggplant field, and said lightly.

"What do you want me to do......"

Mr. Chun Yuyue hesitated for a moment, but still bowed deeply again with a determined expression.

"Please be extrajudicial to your Highness......

Zhao Ying didn't speak, just looked at him steadily, until Chun Yuyue was uncomfortable, and his bowing movements began to deform, and then he said lightly.

"The old gentleman is very knowledgeable and respectable, do you know what you are talking about? As big as a family, as small as a country, there is no morality, and the people's hearts are lost, but if there are no rules, there is no way to form a circle, and if there is no law, there is no way to protect the order, and if a country is chaotic, the country will not be a country. ”

"Morality is above the law, but the law is the cornerstone of protecting morality and protecting the country!"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying was condescending, looking at Chun Yuyue who was bowing himself.

"Why is it extrajudicial to be gracious? Why does Lone want to be extrajudicial? Where there is one, there are two, and there are two, there are three, such as a thousand-mile embankment, which can collapse in an anthill, and a spark can start a prairie fire, and today it is alone here, and the law is broken once, and tomorrow there will be more people under various banners who want to be extrajudicial and benevolent——"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying sneered and looked at Chun Yuyue, who looked a little pale.

"Do you think that once my Great Qin's law loses its majesty and there is no law of it, anyone can trample on and change, and who will suffer in the end?"

Speaking of this, he stood up and walked in front of Chun Yuyue.

"If you don't know, you might as well tell you! Once it reaches that point, it is not those high-ranking officials and nobles who will suffer, nor us princes and grandchildren, but those ignorant people who have no power and no power, and who are originally humble to the dust, ordinary people, it is the people who you keep shouting for benevolence and benevolence......"

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying snorted coldly.

"Now you tell me, where is your Confucian Tao? What kind of people do you love? Or is your so-called charity only used in the end under the guise of self-deception! ”

Chun Yu Yue is like being struck by lightning.

He opened his mouth several times to argue, but closed his mouth several times, and for a moment, the thoughts in his heart were full of thoughts, almost shaking the concept he had insisted on and pursued all these years.

So, who do you love with kindness?

So, what is compassion?

So, who comes first and who complements law and morality?

……

For a moment, he lost his soul.

Even when Zhao Ying walked away, he couldn't react.

Zhao Ying originally wanted to go to Tian Zhen to have a look, after all, the ideas he proposed to improve the seeds were almost difficult to implement in this era.

There are many obstacles that cannot be overcome.

But this kind of thing, someone has to try, as the initiator of Tian Zhen, a Mo family with such a strong spirit of hard work, to this direction full of great emotions, in fact, it is difficult to have any real results, and he can't really be a hands-off shopkeeper.

But because of Chun Yuyue's matter, he suddenly lost interest, and simply got up and left Jiangshan Shejiji.

Beat the horse and went to the recruit camp.

Of course, now it is no longer called the recruit battalion, but the gentleman's battalion.

Compared with the old pedants like Chun Yuyue, it is still this group of freshly baked gentlemen who are cute, although they are all high-nosed and deep-eyed, and speak half-baked Guanzhong dialect, but one by one is much more interesting.

Here, no one will persuade him to raise his noble hand, and no one will persuade him that as the eldest grandson of the emperor, he must be broad-minded and compassionate.

Everyone drank tea, drank alcohol, played the piano, played chess, and sometimes, they would laugh with their palms, chant a poem, or draw their swords and dance.

Then he looked forward to his own pride, shouting that he would sweep away the grievances for His Royal Highness the eldest grandson.

It's very cute.

Zhao Ying already has the intention of putting this group of people back to Hexi, Hexi is deep and wide, so he needs this group of educated, educated and sensible humble gentlemen and gentlemen.

……

Zhangtai Palace.

Listening to the report of the captain of the Black Ice Terrace, the First Emperor's face couldn't help but soften a little, and he couldn't help but show a smile between his eyebrows. Hei, who is the head of the Black Ice Terrace, can't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

So far, His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson has performed remarkably, fully meeting His Majesty's expectations.

"His Royal Highness's words, deafening, Chun Yuyue's pedantic old gentleman, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep today......"

When the First Emperor heard this, he laughed.

Yun Danfeng waved his hand lightly.

"This stinky boy still understands some simple truths, and my hard work has not been in vain......

"Your Majesty......"

Hei looked tentatively at the First Emperor, who waved his hand.

"Don't interfere, look again, look again-my country, after all, it can't be handed over to a good person with the kindness of a woman......"

Hei quietly retreated, silent.

He understood his majesty's thoughts, so he did not persuade him.

With the situation that Great Qin is facing now, Great Qin's successor can be a tyrant or a benevolent monarch, he can be cold-blooded and ruthless, unscrupulous, or he can promote the royal road and reduce the burden on the head of Qian, but only he can't be a good person who has no position like the eldest son, who is blindly benevolent, and almost benevolent like a woman.

Your Majesty has moved His Royal Highness's mind today, and I am afraid that this is the idea of wanting to establish a prince.

His gaze passed through the heavy gate of the main hall, looking at the rows of palaces outside, and there was a faint worry in his eyes, he was not worried about how His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun would deal with it, but worried about what His Majesty would do if His Royal Highness the Emperor Eldest Sun made a mistake?

At this moment, Zhao Ying didn't know this, he had a pastime in the Junzi Camp, and he had recovered his state of mind, riding his own dark clouds and snow, and rushed to his mansion with reins.

At this moment, he suddenly realized that something was wrong, frowned slightly, grabbed the reins on the spot, and subconsciously made a defensive posture. With the last assassination, his vigilance has also increased a lot.

Of course, this is not a grange outside the city, and on the streets of Xianyang City, especially so close to the palace, it is almost unimaginable to assassinate it.
