Chapter 158: Fusu admits his mistake
Of course, Zhao Si actually has a little bit of standing and talking without backache.
After all, when Fusu was young, the First Emperor was busy seizing power.
After that, the Chu relatives were purged, and these Chu relatives were the staunchest supporters of Fusu in the strict sense, and at the same time they were also Fusu's relatives, among which Chang Wenjun was also Fusu's teacher...... Obviously, this was a great blow to the young Fusu and caused an extreme deterioration in the relationship between father and son.
And the most important thing is that Zhao Si has a jade aura in his body.
One of the most important abilities of the Jade Aura is that it can make people feel close.
Therefore, if you have to say how superb Zhao Si's communication skills are, it is not actually enough, Zhao Si can have a close relationship with the First Emperor, on the one hand, because Zhao Si knows how to communicate, and on the other hand, it is also because the jade aura allows the First Emperor to be calm, even if there are occasional oversteps and improprieties, the First Emperor can also smile generously.
Of course, Zhao Si will definitely not say anything about cheating.
Zhao Si's straightforward words seemed to sting Fusu, so that Fusu snorted and stopped talking, but fell into deep thought.
There was no word all the way until he drove straight into the palace.
Fusu and Zhao Si came to the palace together.
The First Emperor lived in it, and Zhao Si and Fusu bowed down one after another.
The First Emperor raised his eyes and skimmed Fusu, and when he saw Fusu lowering his head and not saying a word, he snorted and waved his hand.
"Sit down......"
Fusu and Zhao Si sat down on their knees honestly.
There were no words to each other, and the atmosphere fell into an awkward silence.
Part of the reason why the first emperor called Fusu was deliberate.
Let Fusu come over and see his Lao Tzu with his own eyes.
Let Fusu see if his father is as tyrannical as he thinks he is.
But when Fusu came, seeing Fusu bowing his head and being silent, the First Emperor was in no mood.
It's silent again, still pretending to be dead......
"Let's pass on the food...... Emperor Shi opened his mouth, waved his hand, and finally extinguished the thought of giving Fusu a face.
The palace people were ordered, and the fish rushed in and served meals.
In a moment, the cases in front of the three were full of delicacies.
The meal came, but the first emperor did not move the chopsticks, and Fusu did not move the chopsticks.
The father and son don't get along like father and son, and they don't eat like a serious meal, obviously they have their own hearts.
Only Zhao Si had already generously picked up the chopsticks and started to make rice, the movement was not big or small, and the quiet and silent hall seemed a little noisy.
The depressing atmosphere was reduced a lot with Zhao Si's happy cooking movements and voices, the first emperor's eyebrows and feet jumped a few times, and then extinguished the mind of opening his mouth, and glanced at Fusu, who was silent and didn't know what he was thinking, and said angrily: "What are you doing in a daze?" Eat? ”
When Fusu heard this, his body trembled slightly, and he was silent for a long time before he raised his head to look at the First Emperor, and said with a little hesitation: "Father......"
It's called Father, not Father, and it's not Your Majesty.
The First Emperor was a little angry by Fusu's silence, because his father calmed down a lot because of this voice, but he still didn't let it go at all.
"Something?" The First Emperor raised his eyebrows.
"The child is wrong...... Fusu took a deep breath, and finally raised his head and looked directly at the First Emperor, his face showing a bit of openness.
The expression on the First Emperor's face stiffened for a moment, then he put down his chopsticks and leaned back slightly.
"You have a heart for the common people, you have a kind heart, and you propose amnesty to the world, why is it wrong?"
Zhao Si, who was immersed in cooking, also unconsciously slowed down the speed of cooking when he heard the sound, and pricked up his ears to eavesdrop.
"The son's mistake is that he shouldn't speculate about his father's ......," Fusu said.
Oh, admit the wrong drama!
The First Emperor snorted when he heard this, and then threw the book on the table next to Fusu.
"Look at it, the eight unforgivable sins that Li Si has discussed."
Hearing the sound, Fusu picked up the book on the ground and read it word by word, and the first emperor raised his sleeves and began to eat slowly.
Fusu watched very carefully and slowly, so that the First Emperor and Zhao Si had finished eating, and Fusu could finish reading.
After solemnly closing the recital, Fusu showed a relieved smile on his face, and then said softly: "Good! ”
"Where is the goodness?" The First Emperor's brows moved slightly.
"Good is between forgiveness and unforgiveness, thoughtful and careful consideration, and there is no hidden danger." Fusu spoke.
The First Emperor waved his hand when he heard this: "Okay, take it back and take a good look." ”
"My son thanked my father!" Hearing this, Fusu got up and held up the book and saluted solemnly.
"Full?" The First Emperor leaned slightly and asked.
"This book is better than food!" Fusu had a smile on his face.
"Stand down when you're full...... First Emperor chuckled.
Fusu didn't care, and retired with a book.
The footsteps faded away, and there was no movement.
Fusu came, he didn't eat a bite of rice, and he got out after being beaten by the first emperor.
But obviously, this time the father and son get along a little more harmoniously than before, although the father and son still reveal a strong estrangement and alienation, but in the end there is a bit of family.
"I learned a lot from Confucianism." The First Emperor muttered a sentence and looked at Zhao Si again.
Seeing this, Zhao Si smiled: "I'm full!" ”
"I didn't ask you about this ......," the First Emperor said angrily.
Of course, he knew that Zhao Si was full, so he didn't stop cooking this kind of food, and he made a fine light.
"What did you say to your father?" The First Emperor asked.
Zhao Si scratched his head when he heard the sound and smiled: "I didn't say anything, family, there is something to talk behind closed doors." ”
When the First Emperor heard this, he didn't ask the bottom of it, but lowered his eyes and fell into deep thought.
Family......
The next few days passed as usual, and in a blink of an eye, seven days passed in a flash.
The First Emperor convened a court meeting again to discuss the matter of amnesty for the world.
After the cumbersome etiquette, in the sound of ritual music, the first emperor sat in the first place accompanied by Zhao Si.
Zhao Si followed the speech prepared in the evening and made an opening statement.
Probably the meaning is that last year of rebellion, all parts of the country were deserted, the first evil ambush, Li Shu was also implicated as a sinner, the people were short-witted, His Majesty was merciful, unwilling to criticize them, the eldest son proposed an amnesty to the world, I thought that there was a certain truth in what I said, so I summoned the courtiers to discuss the matter.
The ministers were shocked when they heard this......
It is nothing to put amnesty on other emperors.
But the first emperor was sympathetic to the people, but they couldn't fix it.
Especially Feng Quji...... A few days ago, he was still frightened by Fusu's recklessness, worried that Fusu, who had just become the crown prince, would anger the First Emperor again, and he would not stay in Xianyang for a few days and be sent out by the First Emperor.
And now...... Amnesty to the world, did the first emperor really take it out for the ministers to discuss?
And looking at this meaning, Your Majesty, in his heart, did he agree to amnesty the world?
It's really outrageous, it's outrageous, it's outrageous.
You must know that the First Emperor has enough experience to deal with the sudden increase of millions of people.
Afang Palace can catch up with the schedule, the Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang has not yet been completed, and it is now in a state of semi-shutdown.
It would be nonsense to say that this group of people has no place to place, and the last thing Qin Guo is afraid of is that there are many sinners.
Repair bridges and pave roads to open mountains and build cities, Longxi has just expanded thousands of miles, and Lingnan is still very short of people.
So in the final analysis, it's not that the First Emperor doesn't know what to do with these people, but that the First Emperor really has a conscience?
Well?
But when the eldest son proposed an amnesty to the world, the first emperor was angry on the spot, and Feng Qujian was on the scene.
Feng Quji...... Even the eyes of the courtiers finally converged on Zhao Si.
Could it be ...... Is it His Royal Highness Taisun who made a move?
After all, the previous tax reduction was also proposed by Zhao Si, and he successfully persuaded the first emperor to implement it.
If anyone can reverse the will of the First Emperor, then it is only His Royal Highness Taisun, after all, His Majesty loves Taisun, this is a recognized fact.
Even if the facts are in front of them, they are more inclined to turn the tide rather than the heartfelt decision of the First Emperor himself.
Perhaps the starting point of the First Emperor was not leniency and conscience, but the choice after weighing the pros and cons, but Zhao Si knew in his heart that if the First Emperor didn't have this idea, it would be useless for him to wear out his mouth.
The ministers secretly speculated in their hearts, but the discussion did not stop.
Immediately, some courtiers engaged in a heated debate over whether the amnesty should be implemented or not.
Some are for and some are against.
On the whole, those who are in favor account for the majority, and Confucianism is the backbone of the flag-waving voice.
And the opponents are, of course, the group of old officials, who are known for their coolness.
Of course, what they don't know is that the biggest old official, Li Si, has gradually begun to betray them.
Not all those who study the law and follow the law can be as proficient in both doctrines as Li Si, and they are also good at arguing.
In essence, if it weren't for the choice of the First Emperor, they would have been abandoned with the course of the times.
The outside is full of enemies, and the inside is full of divisions.
Therefore, they can only turn their gaze to Lis.
However, Lees pulled a big lump in front of their eyes.
Lees has a shot!
I took out a well-prepared recital.
Approved the proposal of amnesty for the world.
At the same time, the Eight Deadly Sins were proposed, and the doctrine of the king's privilege was proposed.
"The so-called amnesty is not forgiven, there are eight deadly sins.
One is rebellion, the second is rebellion, the third is rebellion, the fourth is rebellion, the fifth is unrighteousness, the sixth is great disrespect, the seventh is unfilial piety, and the eighth is civil strife......"
This is not the first time that Li Si has rejected the coercion of the old officials, but this is the first time that Li Si has consciously begun to cut and screen.
He wants to take a new path that is different from Shang Jun and the old law, so some stubborn people must be kicked out, but he also needs to give the people below a certain space to react, give them certain hints, and let them pass their own screening to keep up with their own footsteps.
As for those who can't keep up, they can only be eliminated.
And that's just the beginning......
Li Si's opening can be said to be final, among the ministers, naturally there are most people who support amnesty in the world, and Li Si, who has the most weight in the three dukes, personally speaks, Wang Jian does not express his opinion, and Feng Quji seconds the proposal, no one can veto the amnesty of the world.
Therefore, the matter of amnesty is already a foregone conclusion.
As a result, the trend of the next discussion changed from whether or not the world should be amnesty to which sins cannot be forgiven by the world.
Because Li Si has put forward the theory of eight heinous crimes, and these eight crimes are indeed indisputable, either people and gods are angry, or they violate the majesty of the emperor, no one will not open their eyes and find fault with these eight crimes, so the direction of most people's dispute is whether to add a few more unpardonable crimes.
"The eight evils mentioned by Li Xiang are indeed unforgivable, but I think that in addition to this, two more evils should be added!" Yu Shi Su Yu walked out from one side and spoke in a deep voice.
The eight evils proposed by Li Si are not separately designated crimes, but the classification of crimes, which requires a certain amount of preparation time for most people, and what is discussed is only whether a single crime should be added, but Su Yu, I want to add two evils to the eight evils.
"Two more? Isn't that heinous? Zhao Si's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he thought secretly in his heart.
As a traverser, he must have heard of the heinous, but Li Si only proposed the eight heinous, and Zhao Si only knew the idiom of the heinous heinous, but he didn't know what the specific crimes were, so he couldn't rely on the identity of the traverser to talk about it, but the heinous became the heinous, and Zhao Si always felt that something was missing.
Therefore, Su Yu opened his mouth to add two more evils, and Zhao Si immediately became interested in it.
"Speak!" The First Emperor nodded.
Su Yu bowed and saluted, and then spoke in a deep voice.
"There are two evils of which I speak, one is disharmony and the other is unrighteousness!
The son does not respect the father, the wife does not respect the husband, and the young do not respect the elder.
The unrighteous deeds are said to be unusual, the disciples do not respect the teacher, the disciples do not respect the lord, and the officials do not respect the officials......"
Su Yu opened his mouth to supplement the two sins of disharmony and injustice in detail, and listed some cases.
For example, the wife beats and insults her husband, the elderly, for example, betrays the interests of the master as a guest, denounces the superior as a subordinate official, and so on......
Zhao Si sounded wrong from the beginning, and the more he listened to it, the more wrong it became.
The so-called homely routine, Gangchang, this is not the Confucian set?
The son does not sue the father, the slave does not sue the master, the wife takes the husband as the key, the official as the official, and the official as the king?
Listen to it again, isn't this a kiss and a secret.........
Weaken the authority of some people to satisfy the authority of others......
Did Su Yu give those examples, did they commit a crime? Definitely a crime.
But is it really to the extent that it can be compared with the eight evils proposed by Lis?
Ten heinous heinous, can't it really be these ten heinous?
But Zhao Si thought about it, it seemed to be true.
The so-called amnesty of the world has gradually become popular since the Han Dynasty, and because of the popularity of amnesty in the world, it is natural that targeted remedial measures have been made.
And so the heinous came in......
At that time, it happened to depose the Confucianism of the hundred schools, and after the ram lost power, he paid more attention to the outline.
Isn't this so-called disharmony and injustice a crime full of Confucian flavor?
What do you mean by this?
Before the Han Dynasty, filial piety was also emphasized.
Unfilial piety in the Qin Dynasty was also a felony, and Li Si also listed it as one of the eight evils.
But in the Han Dynasty, filial piety became demonic.
Even the Jin Dynasty was even better than the blue.
In the Qin Dynasty, there will also be aggravated punishment for the crimes committed by relatives like this, which is indeed against the simple feelings of human beings.
However, the reason why Li Si did not include the unpardonable sin is because Li Si did not think that this kind of sin reached the point where it could not be forgiven.
The so-called amnesty of unforgivable sins, to put it mildly, is to warn the people of the world.
There are sins that cannot be forgiven by the whole world, and they are the anger of man and God.
A gleam flashed in Zhao Si's eyes......
"Well, it turns out that the heinous ones are bringing private goods......
(And ...... )
