Chapter 12 Then I'll Give You Some Advice

It is really hard to say how much murderous aura there is in Ying Zheng, and there is not even a trace of murderous intent when he speaks.
Ying Zheng's murderous intent cannot be compared with that of generals like Wang Jian, Wang Ben, Meng Tian, ​​and Li Xin who struggled with blood and fire.
Even if he was fighting against an ordinary soldier, Ying Zheng was no match for him.
But what's funny is that even with such a non-murderous person and such a sentence without any murderous intent, the shadow in the Xianyang Palace seemed to become a little thicker.
A group of people, whether it is the famous general Wang Jian who has made great achievements, or the left and right prime ministers who have power over the world.
Everyone's heart stopped for a moment, and a chill seeped out from their bones, passed through their limbs, turned into a fine layer of sweat, and penetrated out of their body surface, letting the chill sweep over their entire body.
They lowered their heads slightly more, sat in a more standard posture, and slowed down their breathing rhythm intentionally or unintentionally . Even Li Si, who had been making excuses for Chunyu Yue, did the same.
His Majesty is angry.
This was what all the court officials thought.
At this time, no one was so blind as to attract Ying Zheng's attention and share the First Emperor's anger with Chunyu Yue.
The bloody smell outside the Xianyang Palace had not yet dissipated, and the dark red dried bloodstains on the white jade railings were so conspicuous.
The ghosts of eighteen Qin officials who died for insisting on giving advice were waiting outside the palace, waiting for the solemn and dignified Xianyang Palace. Someone had angered Ying Zheng and was cut into four pieces and thrown into the palace to keep them company.
Chunyu Yue straightened his clothes and looked at Ying Fusu for the last time with hope .
Some are nostalgic, some are reluctant to leave, and some are unwilling to give up.
I really want to see the day when my Confucianism becomes the orthodoxy in the world.
He bowed his head again and shouted in a deep voice: "Life is what I want! Righteousness is what I want! You can't have both! I would rather sacrifice my life for righteness!"
The words were sonorous and powerful, as if they were filled with infinite righteousness.
Ying Fusu, who was already disappointed and dejected, heard these words, and the fire that had been extinguished in his heart suddenly burned again!
Teacher, you must have your reasons!
He was just about to plead with Ying Zheng on behalf of Chunyu Yue when the hand that had been pressing on his head exerted force at the right moment.
The warm current that once soothed his troubled emotions this time blocked his meridians, leaving him unable to do anything for a moment.
Ying Chengjiao sighed.
I thought I could take a break, but I didn't expect that I would still have to perform on stage.
He didn't even need to look, just by feeling the strength of Ying Fusu's struggle under his hands, he knew how anxious his nephew was.
"His Majesty."
Ying Chengjiao shouted loudly.
In public, he never called Ying Zheng "Brother Emperor".
This is for the sake of Ying Zheng's majesty. As an emperor, he is alone and has no relatives or friends.
"I finally found someone who spoke up for me, can I not kill him?"
Ying Chengjiao spoke very casually, leaving the silent ministers with a lot of question marks in their heads.
Your Majesty is really angry, the kind that wants to kill people! You are talking as if Your Majesty is joking!
As expected, Ying Zheng's anger shifted.
"If you dare to say one more word, I'll fine you three years' salary!"
Some of the court officials whispered in private: "This matter was all caused by this bastard. Your Majesty should fine him ten years of salary!"
When something happened to Chunyu Yue, no matter whether they were friends or enemies, they would feel grief for the loss of the rabbit.
But when something happens to Ying Chengjiao, everyone will only feel gloating.
"Your Majesty, aren't you curious about why Chunyu Pushe, who has always been at odds with me, spoke for me today?"
Ying Chengjiao didn't care about the salary at all and continued talking to himself.
"Is it just that Chunyu Yue doesn't get along with you? Can you find a minister in the court who gets along with you?"
"Cough, cough, cough."
Ying Chengjiao felt an itchy throat and coughed a few times.
Just remind your brother to say a few words and give me a way out.
He didn't need to look to know that all the court officials agreed with Ying Zheng's words.
A bunch of ignorant bastards!
Ying Zheng didn't know what Ying Chengjiao was going to say, but due to the tacit understanding between the two brothers over the years, he naturally understood that Ying Chengjiao wanted him to cooperate.
He stopped teasing Ying Chengjiao and said casually, "But what you said does make sense. Tell me, when did you become so close to Chunyu Yue?"
Ying Chengjiao bent down and picked up a bamboo slip from the table in front of him. Looking closely, he could see wet traces of saliva on it.
Ying Chengjiao weighed the bamboo slips, feeling very proud.
"That's because I'm extremely intelligent and helped Confucianism a lot by annotating the entire text of the Analects."
What do you do by annotating the Analects?
Does "The Analects of Confucius" still need your annotations?
Ying Zheng was a little confused.
The Analects is a book written by Confucius' disciples to record Confucius' words and deeds. It has come with annotations since the day it was written. It is a Confucian classic written and annotated by Confucius' disciples.
In this era, no one has ever been heard of commenting on the Analects of Confucius.
After all, no matter how well you know Confucius, can you understand him as well as his disciples?
Moreover, many of Confucius' disciples who annotated the Analects were great sages. If anyone were to annotate it for the second time, wouldn't that be just showing off one's knowledge in front of an expert?
"Annotations to the Analects? That's quite interesting. It's new."
Out of trust in Ying Chengjiao, although Ying Zheng was a little confused, he could only continue speaking.
How can an unlearned person annotate the Analects? Your Majesty still favors this guy and saves his face.
The court officials did not believe what Ying Chengjiao said.
In their opinion, Ying Chengjiao could only rank the girls in the tower.
As for matters such as learning and warfare, they have nothing to do with this boy.
Chunyu Yue, who was determined to die, almost dropped his hat while speaking for Ying Chengjiao.
You put the Analects under your body when you sleep, and your saliva drips all over it. How can you treat the Analects like this and still call it an annotation?
Your so-called annotations are probably two erotic pictures drawn on the Analects. It is a waste of the Analects to have it in your hands!
etc!
No matter how despicable this guy is, he would never make up such an impossible excuse. Does he have other intentions? The Ying family should not be underestimated. Let's wait and see.
Among the court officials, no one believed that Ying Chengjiao could annotate the Analects. They thought that what Ying Zheng said was novel, and that he was just like them, and they mocked Ying Chengjiao for his delusion of annotating the Analects.
Little did they know that Ying Zheng had never doubted this matter. He was just curious about Ying Chengjiao's motives for annotating "The Analects of Confucius".
"Since the day the Analects was written, its true meaning has been misinterpreted by those who made annotations. Those who originally made annotations did not understand Confucius' true thoughts at all. I don't want Confucius to be misunderstood by the world, so I read it briefly and re-annotated it. Alas, if Heaven had not given me Ying Chengjiao, Confucianism would have been in darkness forever!"
"Cough cough cough cough cough cough cough!"
Among the court officials, the Confucianist Doctor Fusheng couldn't help but cough loudly.
Doctor is a very special official position in the Qin State. They have no real power and have nothing to do on weekdays.
But they have the right to participate in politics. Simply put, they are the emperor's think tank.
"Chang'an Jun is saying that the annotations made by Confucius' disciples are all wrong? Yan Hui, Zilu, Ran Qiu and other wise men do not understand Confucius as well as Chang'an Jun?"
Fu Sheng's doubts were also the doubts of the court officials.
The court officials just didn't want to wade into the muddy water and get involved in this dispute, but they were all speechless at Ying Chengjiao's big talk.
If Heaven had not given birth to you, Ying Chengjiao, would Confucianism have remained in darkness forever? What a big mouth!
No matter how much one looks down on Confucianism, everyone has to admit that, as a prominent school of thought in the world, Confucianism has its own unique features.
You are making it sound as if Confucianism was not founded by Confucius but by you, Ying Chengjiao. Are you worthy of that?
"Yes! Isn't this a very obvious thing?"
Faced with Fu Sheng's questioning, Ying Chengjiao agreed very readily without any hesitation.
Even though the shadow of Emperor Qin Shi Huang Ying Zheng still loomed over the Xianyang Palace, the ministers still couldn't help but remain silent and their faces twitched.
This guy is really shameless!
How could he say such a thing!
"Why else would Chunyu Pushe speak for me? It was because he listened to my annotations that he realized that the Analects he had learned before were all wrong. I know you don't believe it, so I will explain it to you word by word on the spot. I guarantee that after listening to it, you will be enlightened. Do you want to try it?"
Who is Fusheng?
Someone who has studied Confucianism all his life!
The name Fusheng was inconspicuous in the Qin Dynasty.
But if history had developed normally, by the Han Dynasty, Fusheng would have been a world-famous scholar.
Even Emperor Wen of Han had to send the Imperial Censor Chao Cuo to travel thousands of miles to ask Fu Sheng for the true meaning of the Book of Documents.
It can be said that more than half of the Han Dynasty scholars’ understanding of Confucian classics came from Fu Sheng’s interpretation.
If they were talking about something else, Fusheng would definitely remain silent, but when it came to the inheritance of Confucian culture, Fusheng would never sit idly by.
He bowed deeply to Ying Chengjiao and said calmly, "Please teach me, Lord Chang'an!"
"Okay, then I'll give you some pointers." Ying Chengjiao said casually without returning the greeting.
His perfunctory and arrogant attitude made all the officials want to punch him twice.
You will be embarrassed later!
Everyone in the court knew about Fusheng's understanding of Confucianism, and he was someone Chunyu Yue would always consult.
Why is Chunyu Yue the hidden leader of Confucianism?
It is because those who specialized in studying Confucianism regarded Fusheng as their leader, rather than Chunyu Yue.
Fusheng only studied and let Chunyu Yue make the decisions on all external affairs. Therefore, this group of Confucian scholars who only studied let Chunyu Yue make the decisions for the sake of Fusheng's face.
