"Eight handles are the system of the Zhou Dynasty, and the Qin Dynasty does not have such a statement......" Teng was stunned for a moment and reminded.

Neishi was an official position that appeared in the Zhou Dynasty, and its authority was very large, almost second only to the Three Dukes.

In the Qin Dynasty, due to the centralization of power, the authority of officials was generally weakened, and the eight handles of internal history were naturally gone.

"There can be ......," Zhao Si smiled.

Is there such a great power, isn't it still a matter of one sentence? The power is in the hands of the Son of Heaven, and now the First Emperor is busy coaxing his grandson to almost completely delegate power, which is nothing more than a report to the First Emperor.

Besides, Zhao Si is not a fool, the eight handles of the internal history of the Zhou Dynasty involve the whole world, but what Zhao Si gave is only limited to the eight handles in the pass, and the area has been demarcated, to put it bluntly, let Teng rely on his qualifications and fame with the eight handles to shelter the new officials from the wind and rain, and it can also be regarded as a spur to Li Xiang.

"Can there be?" Teng opened his mouth, he knew too well that it was the emperor, this was the eight handles, even if it was only limited to the Guannai......

Would the First Emperor be willing to delinquish power? Besides, he is not a close confidant of the First Emperor, and His Royal Highness Taisun, who met for the first time, was inevitably too determined.

"Don't worry......" Zhao Si waved his hand.

Teng has been away from the political center for many years, even if he pays attention to the big situation, he can't know the whole picture, and there are some things that can't be said, which can only be experienced slowly after Teng returns to the court.

Like Zhao Si's other doormen, they would never ask this kind of question.

If Zhang Cang is here, I am afraid that he will only wonder if he can still order something from the First Emperor, and he will not worry about not being able to come.

With the little childish slave, the future of Great Qin will also be there.

He is a little slave and his father, at least half of the credit, isn't it?

Race all the way...... Zhao Si caught Teng and asked a lot of questions, both for advice and for the school.

Although Teng's ability has been proven, Zhao Si's school examination and testing are somewhat redundant, but the process is essential.

Don't be afraid of 10,000, just in case.

After all, Teng has been away from the court for many years, and the position prepared by Zhao Si for Teng is quite important, and the consequences of sitting in a big position without great power are very vicious.

From outside Xianyang City, run all the way to Zhao Si's mansion in Xianyang City.

Teng has no official position now, so he naturally has no official residence in Xianyang, firstly, to settle Teng, and on the other hand, to meet the talent of Yijianxi by the way.

"Minxi, I've seen Your Highness!" Xi looked at Zhao Si and the ground behind Zhao Si with surprise and joy on his face.

He opened his mouth, snorted a few times, and spoke again.

"I've seen Mr. ......"

Teng smiled and stepped forward, looking at Xi's already gray hair, his face showed a little emotion.

In fact, Teng and Xi don't have much personal relationship, after all, there is a huge difference in status between the two.

Between him and Xi, he still stayed in the appreciation of a superior for a subordinate with outstanding performance.

If Teng does not lose his position, and under the continuous promotion, the friendship between the two will naturally gradually deepen.

It's a pity that Teng didn't have time to promote Xi, a dazzling talent, Teng had already lost his position, and under the general environment, Xi also lost his official position.

"Hello...... You're old! I remember when I first saw you, you didn't have so many gray hairs on your head. Teng laughed.

But now, time has passed, and everywhere I see it, there are old people, and they are sympathetic to each other, so they are also a little closer to Xi.

"Shaohua is stumbling...... So far, nothing has been accomplished, gray hair in vain, ashamed......" Xi smiled bitterly.

He got Teng's letter before rushing to Xianyang to accept the assessment of the recruitment order, but Teng did not write a letter to Xi alone, some of the talents he thought were acceptable, he wrote a letter, most of them passed the assessment and returned to work as officials, and a few people with more outstanding ability were arranged to become petty officials, but only Xi was alone, and did not make any arrangements after passing the assessment, but was left in the mansion, waiting for the arrival of Zhao Si.

Most of the new officials' supporters used to be young people......

After all, under the social conditions at that time, the new officials were originally a group of people with strong adaptability and thinking ability, and the active ideas produced in the face of social changes.

Just like the dispute between the young Zhuang faction and the old Cheng faction, most of the new officials are young, and most of the old officials are old and rigid for many years.

However, time has passed, because of Li Si's key attack, the idea of the new officials is regarded as a ban, and Li Si is personally responsible for leading the internal thinking of the Qin officials, and under the passage of time, the old officials are generally among the Qin officials, whether they are young or old, the former new officials are old.

In essence, there were actually many things in the Qin Dynasty that were against the trend of the times......

Of course, the great unification is definitely in line with the trend of the times.

"If you have ambitions, you are not old, and you are not ambitious to be 100 years old, why is this?

It was a blessing for the old people to see each other, but Mo Ti these, set up a banquet in the mansion alone, and went inside to talk in detail......"

Zhao Si waved his hand to interrupt the sadness of the two, ordered the ministers in the palace to prepare a banquet, and personally took the two to the main house to wait.

After a while, you will be served with fruit and drinks, as well as a simple snack and buttermilk.

Zhao Siteng and Xi have already started a discussion about today.

Zhao Si lamented that he issued a recruitment order but did not get too many talents who could take charge of himself, and he retorted immediately.

"No accumulation of steps, no thousands of miles, no accumulation of small streams, no rivers and seas. In the eyes of the people, a county must have the talent of a prime minister, but before that, it must have a certain amount of experience, if nothing is clear, even if there is such talent, if you come up to a high position, blessings and disasters may not be known.

Moreover, although he cannot be an official, he can be an official.

Qin has a law, the prime minister must start from the state department, and the fierce general must be sent to the army, with the officials as officials, so as to know the affairs of the people, so as to be more thoughtful, there is no shortage of officials in Daqin, what is lacking is officials. Xi said seriously.

"Oh?" Zhao Si's eyes lit up.

This point is happy to think of Zhao Si, and Zhao Si also thinks that what Daqin lacks is not an official.

After all, at the moment, Great Qin occupies the land of the Seven Kingdoms.

In the past, each country of the Seven Kingdoms had a court team, and the total number of court officials of the Seven Kingdoms must be much more than the total number of officials of Great Qin now.

It doesn't make sense that there was no shortage of officials in all countries during the Warring States Period, but there was a shortage of officials available in Great Qin.

Mainly officials......

The rule of officials of the Qin State involves all aspects, and the so-called complexity of Qin's laws does not rely on a decree, nor does it depend on a decree issued by the first emperor, and the people of the world will abide by it.

In practice, it is still necessary to rely on grassroots officials to deal with the leaders of the world.

The wider the Qin State managed, the more officials it naturally needed.

From the point of view of officials, the number of officials in the Qin State is less than the total number of officials in the Warring States Period.

From the point of view of officials, the scale of officials in the period of the unification of the Qin State was more than the total number of officials in the world during the Warring States Period.

The fate of an empire is by no means controllable by an official, and the collapse of the rule of officials is the beginning of the end of the empire.

"Tell me more!" Zhao Si looked at Xiang Xi and said.

Xi Wensheng spoke: "The people think that to govern the world, you need to govern the officials first."

Today, Qin has two drawbacks, one drawback, few officials, and two drawbacks! With that, Hi paused.

Zhao Si acted as a qualified pamperer and asked, "Then how to solve these two drawbacks?" ”

"There are many ways to solve the problem, there are few officials, and the officials are complicated, and the more things there are, the more officials are needed, and the higher the level of officials needed.

There are eighteen kinds of Qin laws, and the regulations involved are innumerable, from large to small, from top to bottom, and even all aspects of daily life.

Generally speaking, a clerk can only barely remember the eighteen kinds of Qin laws, if it is extended to the specific analysis and reference of the laws of a certain day, then I am afraid it will be a little difficult, the officials are still like this, let alone the head of Qian?

Therefore, if you want the Qianshou to live according to the laws of Qin, you can only rely on the officials to urge them to remind them.

In this way, the number of officials needed will naturally be more and wider.

It's very simple to find a solution, streamline Qin Law by half, and now Daqin's problem will be alleviated a lot. Hi said.

If you can't solve the problem, then don't ask the problem......

Well, also a way to solve the problem.

The so-called way of inaction is similar to this principle, no matter how much, naturally there is not so much political pressure......

This thing actually exists in modern times, such as the famous shock therapy......

"Qin Law really needs to be streamlined and deleted, and there are many provisions that are irrelevant and not in line with this era." Zhao Si nodded.

Qin Law is almost deleted and changed in every dynasty and every generation, but in the end, it can't be changed to be a dojo in the circle of Shangjun Law, so it also leaves a lot of anachronistic things, some are unnecessary, and some are even side effects, the so-called change of the law, must change Qin Law, which Zhao Si has long been mentally prepared.

Well...... Lees has also done a good job.

"What else?" Zhao Si continued to ask.

"Running a school......" Xi said halfway, and stopped talking.

Zhao Si keenly caught the joy and stopped, and continued to ask.

"What else?"

Xi pondered for a long time, and finally seemed to have strengthened some kind of confidence and then said seriously: "The priest separates!" ”

"The Priests are separated?" Zhao Si was startled at first, and then repeated it again, with a light in his eyes.

"The priests are separated! What a lawyer! Zhao Si clapped his hands.

The officials are the officials of the Qin State, but the Legalists are not necessarily the Legalists of the state.

In fact, both schools of thought try to confuse this concept.

Legalism is constantly confusing this concept, so the officials of the Qin State must come from Legalism.

Later generations of Confucianism were also confusing this concept.

Needless to say, the final result is......

Depose the Hundred Schools...... Exclusive Family...... Then involution, the bad money drives out the good money......

"Your Highness doesn't speak of a minister?" He was stunned for a moment.

"Actually, that's what I'm going to do...... It's just that this point will be more difficult to ......," Zhao Si pondered.

The so-called taking scholars for the country, in Zhao Si's view, no matter the sons of the hundred schools, as long as they can pass the regulations of Daqin and the assessment of qualified positions, they should not be treated differently.

Of course, the current Great Qin Ming is also like this, among the hundred officials, there are also many people who govern hundreds of schools, and not all of them are from Legalists.

However, in the grass-roots unit of officials, in fact, the officials are no longer separated.

The ideas of the Legalists permeated all aspects of the Qin laws, and in order to understand and implement these laws, it was inevitable to learn the ideas of the Legalists.

A clerk, even if he has not read a single book of the Legalists, but as long as he takes the officials as his teacher and becomes an official through the assessment of formal channels, then you take the books of the Legalists to test him, and the results you get are also very different.

The tail is too big to fall off...... Although the hundred schools have not yet been deposed, in fact, Legalism has become the national school of Great Qin.

If there is no second death, then the foreseeable Great Qin will inevitably be bound to death by the Legalist ideology.

The same is true of Confucianism...... In fact, after Confucianism was bound to the Han Dynasty, its student movement had far surpassed the national movement.

The Han Dynasty was only a few hundred years old? Confucianism flourished until modern times......

It's not that Confucianism is bad, it's not Confucianism...... In fact, as a study of statecraft, there is merit in either one, and even if it cannot be used to govern the country, there is no lack of insight.

However, in the past, the reference route for governing the country was one hundred, and after the deposition of the hundred schools, the reference route was just that version, and the snail lion shell was used as a dojo, and the thoughts were naturally fixed in a circle......

"If I'm not mistaken, you went to school from the place?" Zhao Si asked.

"How did you come up with such an idea?" Zhao Si asked.

"The wind of upward and downward effect is too much, there is a golden rule for everything, but I can't think about it, I don't know if it's Your Majesty or the Legalist...... "Xi shook his head and said.

"But in this way, I am afraid that the fundamental idea of governing the country will have to be redefined." Zhao Si sighed.

"It's not impossible, it's good to have a conclusion, not to use the remarks of any school, but to let the hundred schools of thought consciously rely on this aspect, and whoever cultivates well will use whom." Hi said.

To put it bluntly, it is to set the core ideas and concepts of Daqin.

Then the sons of the hundred schools of thought themselves will play according to this core idea and concept.

You can use whatever way of elaboration you like, and you can interpret it as you like, and you will also follow this core idea and concept in the selection of officials in the future.

Zhao Si was in a hurry, and threw out a sixteen-character mantra.

Give an outline, and write the content by yourself.

However, if you think about it carefully, from this point of view, Lee Sang, whose political position is quite flexible......

He's already leaked......

In this regard, Liss has an absolute advantage.

But it doesn't hurt, at least it gives hundreds of families a living space.

The supreme ruler has also expressed his stance on what type of knowledge is needed, and the hundred schools of thought can at least get a clear direction and work hard for it, so as not to run around with their heads bored......

"Thinking about it this way, it's easier to depose the hundred schools......

Zhao Si sighed, for those in power, this is obviously complicating simple things.

But as a modern person, there is always some insistence on the brilliance of the hundreds of schools of thought.

"Trouble, just trouble......"

After all, this is my Great Qin.

(I slept until 6 p.m....... I slept for eighteen hours, and it was a bit sudden...... ）
