Chapter 218: The Great Dynasty Meeting, the Beginning of Change!

Zhao Si was shocked to find that as he traveled more and more time, many of his thoughts were changing.

But it was too late for him to grieve for the change in his thinking.

The new law has been completed, and Zhao Si basically agreed with Li Si's new code after reviewing it, except for some small mistakes, it has been able to perfectly adapt to this era, at least it is very applicable to the key transformation node of Daqin.

Without the slightest hesitation, Zhao Si made a decision immediately.

Three days later, a court meeting was held to discuss the abolition of the old and the establishment of the new.

This time, it was more of a debate than a court meeting, so the invitation was not limited to civil and military officials, but also representatives of the hundreds of schools of thought who gathered in Xianyang because of the opening of the school.

Three days are fleeting......

The court meeting was held as scheduled......

The hundred officials stand on the right, and the representative figures of the hundred schools of thought stand on the left.

Because of the rumors released in advance, and Zhao Si's attitude towards the old officials and the old law was not hidden, in fact, many people have already guessed the purpose of this court meeting.

The situation changes with the attitude of those in power and the course of history.

The Legalist family has been dominant for too long, and the old officials and old laws have been pressed on people's hearts for too long.

In the past, the opponents only suffered from lack of support, and they could not unite in a mess.

When a ruler clearly stated his attitude, at this moment, no matter what kind of political philosophy the hundred schools of thought were based on, there was no doubt that they were around Zhao Si.

The reason is also very simple, not to mention the conflict of ideas for the time being, everyone knows that if the old law is not gone, the living environment of the hundreds of schools of thought will only become more and more difficult, and many small schools have gradually faced the situation of almost extinction.

It's never been better, and everyone knows what to do.

And political speculators naturally don't care what school of thought, who is the real politician in power, and who they support.

Judging from today's court meeting, the collective of Guanzhong legal officials fell into disadvantage for the first time.

Some people were excited, some people were happy, and Qian Gong naturally noticed this extraordinary scene.

With Li Si's reversal, the example of the old official involuntarily changed from Li Si to Qian Gong.

Of course, no one said that, but the old officials were unanimous in the face of the current predicament.

If it is said that the formation of a close party is not enough, but the situation is so that it can only be grouped, if the dispute deepens day by day, the victory and defeat cannot be separated for a long time, and the result has been difficult to decide, then maybe Daqin will really usher in party struggle because of this.

Because of his support for Zhao Si's release of slaves, Qian Gong was also appropriately released by Zhao Si.

At the same time as the execution of the slave release order, Qian Gong naturally inevitably came into contact with more information, and he was one of the Nine Qings.

Those who can achieve this position are all smart people, Zhao Si did not hide it at all, and Qian Gong naturally guessed what Zhao Si was going to do.

Zhao Si was dissatisfied with the status quo of the old officials and the old law, and wanted to take action to change all this.

It's just that Qian Gong doesn't know what kind of way Zhao Si wants to achieve his goal.

Is it a purge? The old officials and the old law have been powerful for many years, and there are many enemies, all of which are life and death battles.

Maybe not, but simply feel that the old officials and the old law are not suitable for this era?

Qian Gong didn't know what Zhao Si wanted and what kind of situation he would achieve, but there was no doubt that today's dynasty would be the time when the future political situation of Great Qin would be determined.

It is also the final verdict of the old officials and the old law......

Although the group of old officials and the old law is very large and has a lot of power, if they can be gathered, they will definitely be able to cause the inevitable turmoil in the entire Great Qin......

But in fact, this is impossible, and the Legalists and the old officials themselves naturally do not have the attributes of rebellion and insurrection.

Secondly, this is still a Legalist and an old official who has been trained by the First Emperor himself.

And Qian Gong himself also knew that he didn't have the ability to control the old officials in the world.

Li Siquan couldn't do it when he was dominating the world, let alone him? The sense of identity between each other is only in the same Qin officials, with the strict political style of the Qin officials, there are not a few people between the upper and lower levels who are like enemies, how can we talk about a close combination?

So for Qian Gong, all he can do is wait for Zhao Si's verdict.

The only room for resistance is to go to the soup spring after getting the result, and come to the first emperor to cry and pray.

The first emperor is the only one in the world who can turn the tide, but Qian Gong knows that it is impossible for the first emperor not to know all this.

He even felt a little aggrieved in his heart......

In fact, from the perspective of Great Qin, the loyalty of the Legalists and the old officials is undoubted, even so far, they have always been the most loyal group of Great Qin, and they are also the foundation of Great Qin.

The various turmoil in the brewing place of Zhao Sijian is nothing more than holding a shackle on the head of a person who has not committed a crime.

In fact, Zhao Si agrees with this.

He walked to the throne amid the sound of ritual music, was silent for a moment, and slowly sat down on the side seat, his eyes scanning the ministers under his command and the representative figures of the hundred schools of thought.

Those who should have come have come......

Old officials, new officials, hundreds of schools, and pure politicians who don't care about the distinction between schools.

He noticed the expressions of Qian Gong, who pursed his lips, and the expressions of the officials who were old officials.

Some people are silent, some people are wronged, some people are angry, and some people lose their minds...... It can be seen that it is difficult for them to understand Zhao Si's decision-making.

He also noticed the expressions of the new officials and the hundred schools of thought.

They are excited, they are full of fighting spirit, they are happy...... It can be seen that they are eager to immediately sweep the old officials and even the Legalists into the garbage heap of history.

As for speculators, they are more curious and contemplative......

It can be seen that they do not care about the demise of the so-called family name, nor do they care about the academic struggle and the struggle for the future political path, they don't care who wins or loses, they will support whoever wins.

Zhao Si sat down, and the ministers saluted......

"Zhuqing, please get up ......" Zhao Si raised his hand, straightened his figure, and his eyes fell on the court.

"I call you today, because of state affairs, you are alone and confused, please ask you to advise me." Zhao Si spoke in a deep voice.

The ministers responded, and Zhao Si nodded and continued to speak.

"The Three Emperors ruled the world in the past ......"

Zhao Si's lengthy speech kicked off the prelude to the Great Dynasty Meeting, from the Three Emperors and Five Emperors to the unification of the Qin State......

Zhao Si spoke like a history book......

Politics is like this, and a very simple question can be said for a long time.

Fortunately, Zhao Si's current knowledge reserve is enough to be able to independently complete a profound speech.

From the reign of the Three Emperors, with the development of history, the changes in the world, and the changes in the ruling measures, it is said that the world prospers because of changes and dies because of sedimentation.

In the Spring and Autumn Period, the countries competed for change, and the country prospered.

During the Warring States Period, various countries changed their laws one after another, and they were all powerful for a while.

talked about Song Xianggong and praised Song Xianggong's benevolence, but the current situation in the world will not change because of his benevolence, and conservatism has become a foreshadowing of the country's loneliness.

Talking about the Shang monarch's change of law and the Great Qin went east because of this, the reform of the Qin dynasty and the government of the past dynasties, and proposed that the Great Qin prospered because of the Shang monarch, and even unified the world.

So he continued to put forward all kinds of chaos in the world after the unification of Great Qin, and raised his final question.

Qin was ruled by the rule of Shang Jun, the top was harsh and the bottom was ruthless, although Qin was unified, but after the unification, the world was in chaos, and the rule of the Great Qin was corrupted because of this, and the war was far from stopping, and the head of Qiantou did not get better because of this, on the contrary, even brewed all kinds of crises, and the assassinations against the first emperor were endless, and the resentment of the world did not disappear because of this.

Is it because the law of governing the country of Shang Jun is no longer suitable for this era?

"That's all there is to ask, can the old law be suitable for today's Great Qin? How should Qin rule the future generations? Please solve your doubts! ”

Zhao Si's speech was very cautious, he did not deny the old guards, and at the same time, he did not deny the reformers, but based on the different current situation.

He praised Song Xianggong, praised the conservative people of the Spring and Autumn Period, and recognized Shang Ying's contribution to the unification of Great Qin, all of which showed an attitude.

He was in favor of reform, not the Great Purge.

For now, just look at the hundred officials standing under the court today.

Putting aside the level of ability for the time being, the officials who were born as old officials have already proved their loyalty to Great Qin with their actions.

When Zhao Si is praising those outdated and conservative people, he is essentially praising them, and recognizing Shang Ying's contribution is essentially recognizing their contribution.

At least in the next 50 years, the old Qin people in Guanzhong, the officials who were born as legal officials in Guanzhong, will still be the most trustworthy group, even in terms of actual political behavior.

Of course, these things can only be understood but not spoken.

It is not that Zhao Si discriminates against the hundred schools of thought, nor is it that Zhao Si discriminates against the people of the Six Kingdoms, but it is the fact that this is the case on the surface.

However, it cannot be spoken, and speaking out will affect solidarity and even involve discrimination.

Zhao Si's political attitude is not obvious, unlike the opening ceremony of the school, the students are not interested in the headmaster's lengthy speech, and the current Manchu ministers and all the sons and daughters are eager to analyze every word Zhao Si said.

Zhao Si has always disdained to do ambiguous things, and he doesn't like to fight crickets.

Therefore, anyone with a little political acumen can understand it.

With the end of Zhao Si's speech, Qian Gong's heart finally slowly let go, the apprehension on his face was a little less, and his clenched palm loosened a little.

The gaze that looked at Zhao Si was also full of complicated emotions.

Thanksgiving? Regardless of the composition of the old officials and the old law, people's loyalty and ability to do things are definitely worthy of recognition, and from their point of view, it is a disaster.

But to talk about resentment?

Zhao Si has already made it clear that his political attitude is to keep the old officials in Guanzhong, of course, the premise is that they take the initiative to follow the changes of the times.

Zhao Si gave many examples, and the meaning is self-evident.

The old guard dies, and the reformer lives.

As long as the old officials in the Guannai were willing to follow Zhao Si's policy, no one could launch a purge and liquidation against them.

And if the old officials in the customs do not conform to the current situation, they can only die with regrets.

Even a fool with a clear attitude can hear it......

Qian Gong looked at the civil and military officials, and looked at the hundred families.......

His lips twitched for a long time, and he fell silent.

After Zhao Si raised a question, the first to speak was naturally a new official with Teng as an example.

Zhao Si asked Shang Jun if the old law could adapt to the current situation in Great Qin, and their answer was, of course, no.

In fact, this question is not new, as early as when the First Emperor ruled the world, the First Emperor himself raised this question, so the court of Great Qin ushered in violent political turmoil at the beginning of the world.

It's just that the winner at that time was Li Si, or the first emperor chose Li Si.

And now, it's just a repetition of the problems of the past.

The answerers are still the same group of people, but their positions have changed.

The new officials repeated the old steps and opened fire on the old officials, and the second round of the battle over national policy ushered in.

It's just that the former victor Li Si does not represent the old officials and the old law this time......

Because the new code was reformulated by him......

No one can win all the time, Lees is an exception!

Li Si's dismissal brought the controversy to a new climax, because a large number of speculators waited and watched, and the group of hundreds of schools of thought and the new officials were already more numerous than the old ones.

And Li Si's personal exit can be said to have given a real head-on blow.

After all, no matter what, Li Si used to be an example of the old law and the old officials, even if this betrayal had happened a long time ago, but the pain was still not something that the old officials could bear.

Qian Gong witnessed the loneliness of the old officials, and witnessed their speechlessness when they were refuted.

In fact, the old officials and the old law were against the times, and the only thing they could praise was loyalty, but when the rulers did not support them, these things were useless.

Moreover, the harshness and ruthlessness of the old officials also led to their relationship and communication with each other was not close, and in the face of such a collective large-scale debate, how could they withstand the encirclement and suppression?

Losing ground? No, it's a failure!

But this did not end there, with the opening of Kong Kui, who had just arrived in Xianyang, the Luru group was ready to launch a fatal blow against the old officials.

"The Qin officials, harsh at the top and cruel at the bottom, flattering and flattering, insulting the ministers and bullying the people, and wreaking havoc on the head of the Qianshou......"

In fact, whether it is speculators, new officials, or even Li Si himself, they only put forward the shortcomings of the old officials and the old law in relation to the current situation and politics.

After all, the new officials themselves were born from the old officials, and they were a new group of ideas that were born after realizing the inappropriateness of the old officials and the old laws that had changed in the current situation.

And Li Si himself has also been an example of the old officials and the old law group for many years.

As for speculators, not to mention, they are generally non-stick.

Therefore, in fact, although the old officials were defeated and retreated, they did not actually involve personal attacks, because the new officials and Li Si were quite restrained, after all, they all understood Zhao Si's subtext.

But the sons of a hundred schools are not......

The new officials do not lack the qualifications for promotion, they are born among the old officials, they are a member of the system, Li Si is also a member of the system, the so-called controversy is the dispute of Taoism, if the old officials' thinking can keep up with the changes, it is their own people.

Even Li Si and even the group of new officials recognized the gold content of the old Qin people, and everyone was from the same school......

However, the hundreds of schools of thought are different, and this is not only a dispute over Taoism, but also a dispute over political resources.

The new officials can absorb the old ones, but they cannot.

Moreover, if the new officials and the old officials coexist, then the political pattern is still close to the hundred schools of thought......

They still can't get involved!

Of course, long-standing grievances and hatred are also the driving force.

In short, the hundred schools of thought have moved the fiercest attack on the old officials, and they are trying to fight it!
