Chapter 163: I'm the Ancestral Dragon!
The ministers were silent......
Rumors can spread to such an extent, and many of the civil and military officials present are responsible.
Who spread the rumors? Who will preach it?
Why is the city full of rain in just a few days?
Putting aside the truth of the matter, the spread of public opinion was extremely slow in ancient times, and no matter how sensational things were, relying only on natural transmission, they could not be moved in just a few days in ancient times.
The strength of the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms is considerable, at least in terms of public opinion, Great Qin does not have any advantage at all.
At present, no matter how the First Emperor responds, in fact, the purpose of the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms has been achieved.
They struck at Qin's Mandate of Heaven and Jurisprudence, and at the same time showed their muscles, and public opinion spread to such an extent that it can be said that the five bodies of Great Qin were defeated and thrown to the ground, and for the civil and military officials in the main hall at the moment, and even the three dukes and nine kings, their faces have been pressed to the ground and rubbed fiercely by the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms.
Of course, the top priority at present is to save and make up for the damaged Mandate of Heaven and the legal principles of Great Qin.
When the ministers were silent and had different thoughts, the uncle and grandson moved.
"Your Majesty!"
"Heaven and man are inducted, yin and yang are in harmony!"
"A sign from heaven is a warning!"
Uncle Sun Tong begins with a lightning strike.
"Is there a celestial sense at this time? Wasn't this thing created by Dong Zhongshu? Zhao Si was shocked when he heard this.
Zhao Si also thought that his uncle and grandson were stupid, and planned to use the vision from the sky to blame the first emperor to persuade the first emperor.
Who knows that the uncle and grandson will turn their heads.
"If there is a difference in the sky, the country is at fault, and if the country is at fault, the minister is inactive!"
Zhao Si blinked, and his uncle and grandson went around for a long time, and actually explained this heavenly vision through the catastrophe theory of the I Ching and the Spring and Autumn Period.
How to explain it?
There is a vision in the sky, because there is something wrong with the country, this is a warning from God to the Son of Heaven, telling you that there is something wrong with you, and sounding the alarm for you.
Where will the country's problems lie? It must be because the courtiers didn't do their own thing.
Shusun Tong's argument is very crucial, he did not use celestial phenomena to restrict the behavior of the First Emperor, but used celestial phenomena to exonerate the First Emperor, and quoted scriptures to change the main responsibility for the changes in the celestial phenomena from the First Emperor to a courtier.
Anyway, the vision from heaven has nothing to do with the First Emperor, the First Emperor can't make a mistake, and the fault can only come from the princes under the court.
The most commendable thing is that the uncle and grandson quoted the scriptures, not only using the Spring and Autumn Book of Changes, but also using the Mohist theory of heavenly punishment and the five elements of the Yin and Yang family.
Zhao Si's cultural level has now risen, and his appreciation ability has improved greatly compared to before, but in the face of his uncle and grandson's frequent quotation of scriptures and classics, and the impeccable interlocking logic is still confused.
It sounds awesome, but I don't know exactly where it is.
However, Uncle Sun Tong dared to be the first to speak, obviously he was fully prepared, Zhao Si glanced at Li Si.
Li Si nodded slightly, saying that Shusun Tong spoke very well, the theory was very smooth, and it was a public relations manuscript with impeccable logic, and it was the kind of manuscript that the great Confucians of the world could not find the slightest fault.
Of course...... Li Si didn't like it.
The first emperor has no problem, the courtiers have a problem, the country has a problem, who is the fucking yin and yang weird?
This is a vision of the Emperor of the Guardian Heart, according to Shusun Tong, no one is worthy of such a big vision.
Li Si is also one of the Three Princes, and he is the only One of the Three Princes who holds real power!
Of course, this is the necessary public relations of Great Qin, and the First Emperor has already made a tough plan to patrol the world, but there must also be a public relations manuscript, and the prophecy of Zu Long's death this year will take a whole year to verify, and he can't let rumors circulate without any official explanation.
I can only pinch my nose and admit it......
With his uncle and grandson Tong Zhuyu in front, all families and factions began to speak freely.
How can heavenly visions interfere with the workings of earthly things? Your Majesty governs government affairs, rules the four poles, cultivates and plants with his own hands, and does it himself, even if it is a strange celestial phenomenon, how can it affect Great Qin? ”
The second one to open was an old farmer in short straw sandals, looking out of place with everyone present.
"Farmhouse!" Zhao Si's eyes lit up.
The farmer's idea is more in line with Zhao Si's idea in comparison, the farmer believes that the celestial phenomena are celestial phenomena, and there is no half-dime relationship with the world, and the real image of the celestial phenomena in the world is when it is windy and rainy, and the weather is cloudy and sunny, instead of staring at this star and that star to see the stars connected one by one.
From the perspective of modern people, the idea of the farmer is right, but in this era, it can only be said that the conformist Liao Liao, in this slightly primitive era, the farmer is not in awe of God enough.
The political thinking of the peasants was too advanced, they believed that the emperor was a duty rather than a enjoyment, that is, the power was given by the people of the world, and the Son of Heaven should be the right for the public, except for official affairs, and should be the same as everyone else in private.
The peasants believed that the Son of Heaven was not sacred, but only an example of the will of the people of the world.
So...... The peasants' remarks were not only not recognized by the various factions, but also by the First Emperor.
The third is Zhao Si's old acquaintance Fu Feng.
With the five behaviors of yin and yang as the starting point, he denied the rumors of the Jiang God, and directly pointed out that the other party was not the real Jiang God, but someone with a heart secretly promoted it......
After that, all the sons and hundreds of schools of thought shouted one after another, each insisting on one word......
Only the Legalists did not speak.
Zhao Si looked at Li Si and raised his eyebrows, now that the hundreds of schools of thought are shining, Li Si can actually hold back and not move, what Uncle Sun Tong said is so exciting, Zhao Si thought that Li Si would react.
Unexpectedly, Li Si just shook his head slightly with a smile on his face.
Remark?
Legalism is pragmatic!
It's about doing things!
After the hundred schools of thought publicized public opinion for Daqin, a conclusion was formed, and it was impossible for Daqin to reverse public opinion through public relations, but it was not completely in a weak position, and the energy of official public relations was still there, at least it would not be completely one-sided.
PR done...... It's the means to deal with it.
"Discussion ...... is strictly forbidden everywhere"
"Whistleblowing each other."
"One person has a voice to rule another, and one place has a voice to rule one place, and those who secretly preach a declaration will be punished with corporal punishment!"
Li Sidang spoke first.
Classic public opinion control tactics and counterattacks, broad strikes, physical silence.
The method may not be a good method, but it certainly works.
If it is indeed inappropriate to be convicted for words because of telling the truth, it is indeed inappropriate, but now this matter is clearly smeared by public opinion and damaged the image of the Great Qin country, and it is not enough to win people's hearts without punishment.
Li Si made an emergency response, forbidding each other to discuss what Emperor Star was fluttering and confusing to guard the heart of the Jiang God.
At the same time, it encourages whistleblowing and punishment.
It also incorporates the performance appraisal of officials.
Where there are rumors that are widely spread, officials are guilty of incompetence and will be punished for the same crime.
As an extension of the will of the first emperor, Li Si was full of aura, forcing the civil and military officials and even the bigwigs of the hundreds of schools of thought present.
This happened so quickly, and Daqin was so weak and powerless to parry, Li Si was holding back the fire in his heart.
It only took a few days to spread all over Guanzhong, and it simply pressed the face of the administrative officials of Great Qin to the ground.
Li Si was optimistic because he believed that it was just a rumor, and he was happy because the estrangement between the First Emperor and him had dissolved.
But it doesn't mean that he doesn't have fire in this matter, other people's knives are on his neck, he is the left minister of real power, the head of the three princes and nine secretaries, and the chief of the civil and military officials, the dereliction of duty of the hundred officials is his dereliction of duty, and the inaction of the hundred officials is his inaction.
Generally speaking......
This should be the end of the matter.
Public relations has also been done, and the means of dealing with the matter have also been decided.
Although the response was not too perfect, and the counterattack was not crisp and thorough enough, it was considered to have dealt with the past.
However, whether it is Li Si or Zhao Si or Meng Yi, it is clear that today's highlight is not these.
"Zulong died ...... this year"
After Li Si retreated, the First Emperor groaned softly.
"What is an ancestral dragon?" The First Emperor looked at his uncle and grandson.
"Ancestral Dragon, the first of men." Shusun Tong pondered for a moment before speaking.
Seriously speaking, the totem of Great Qin is not actually a dragon but a Xuanniao, so the title of ancestral dragon does not directly and explicitly designate the first emperor.
However, the totem of the dragon is semi-recognized as the length of all things.
Shusun Tong did not dare to assume the inner thoughts of the First Emperor, and gave an ambiguous answer.
Zulong, the original ruler of man.
The First Emperor chuckled, he could understand the caution in Shusun Tong's heart.
The Inhumans all said that Zulong died this year.
Recognizing the First Emperor as the Ancestral Dragon is equivalent to admitting that the Yiren said that the First Emperor died this year.
If you don't admit it, it's not suitable, the First Emperor can indeed be called the ancestral dragon.
In essence, the statement of alien ambiguity, saying that the ancestral dragon and not the first emperor is for the sake of an obscure metaphor.
But it doesn't matter, the First Emperor intends to admit it generously.
"Ancestral Dragon, I'm also!"
How could he not be called an ancestral dragon?
The unification of the world begins with him!
Originally, the prophecy of Zulong's death this year was somewhat ignored, and most of the hundreds of schools of thought were just making a fuss from the identity of Jiang Shen, pointing out that Jiang Shen was false, Jiang Shen was false, and what Jiang Shen said was naturally false, and there was no value in thinking about it.
However, the First Emperor admitted that he was the ancestral dragon, and he had to respond to the prophecy that the ancestral dragon would die this year.
Zhuzi Baijia hurriedly used his brains, planning to make up for this point.
However......
Not really.
"The mountain ghost doesn't know how to be a year old." The First Emperor shook his head and smiled.
"I am determined, ten days later, the world will be surveyed!"
The First Emperor decided to tour the world, and not many people knew about it.
Li Si, Zhao Si, Meng Yi, and some Lang officials.
The First Emperor did not publicly ask for advice, and only asked Zhao Si and Li Si from beginning to end.
Let the civil and military officials not know the decision of the matter until the Great Court Meeting, such behavior is very domineering and inappropriate.
However, he is the First Emperor!
It makes perfect sense!
This has always been the style of the First Emperor.
(No...... A monthly pass, begging. )
