Chapter 125: If Your Majesty does not distribute fiefs, you will become a big bird!
“Bold!”
Left Prime Minister Li Si stood up suddenly and pointed at Chunyu Yue angrily.
"Retreat quickly and don't disrupt the stability of the world!"
Although Li Si talked a lot about the county system in the court some time ago , which made the ministers bored.
But at this moment, none of the ministers thought Li Si was annoying. They all felt that what Li Si said made a lot of sense.
Back off, back off!
"What Chunyu Pushe said is also a big deal!" A Confucian scholar stood up and said loudly.
"It's even more important than what Your Majesty mentioned!" another Confucian scholar interrupted.
After all, six Confucian scholars stood up, all of them spoke for Chunyu Yue.
These six Confucian scholars are all the Confucian scholars present today.
Ying Chengjiao narrowed his eyes.
He glanced at Li Si who was about to continue speaking.
Li Si stopped talking, feeling a chill in his heart, but he looked at Chunyu Yue who was waiting for the First Emperor's reply without blinking.
"Ridiculous! What your majesty said is the most important thing, why don't you retreat!"
Confucian scholars stood up one after another, all of them were strangers.
How could there be people who have never been to the court before entering this grand banquet? Did His Majesty allow these people to enter?
All the ministers in the hall were smart men. They immediately realized that something was wrong and watched it calmly without getting impatient.
Wang Jian, whose reward was interrupted, suppressed his anger, closed his eyes and counted his breaths.
After calming down, he looked at Chunyu Yue coldly.
Chunyu Yue looked at the rigid Li Si and sighed inwardly.
How could he not know that Li Si was protecting him?
Li Si, who is now the left prime minister, also holds the duties of the chief justice.
Li Si saw the Confucian scholars thrown into the Tingwei prison early in the morning. After asking, he found out that Chunyu Yue had not left.
He looked for Chunyu Yue several times in broad daylight, but Chunyu Yue avoided him every time.
"I would like to ask, Your Majesty, what do you think of my achievements?" Chunyu Yue, who was seeking death, asked loudly.
Minister Zhou Qingchen stood up and said to Chunyu Yue: "In the past, the territory of Qin was only a thousand miles, and it was only thanks to your majesty's wisdom and bravery that you were able to unify the world. Now the people of the world are all subject to your majesty, there is no war, and everyone lives and works in peace. Who can compare with your majesty in such achievements!"
The First Emperor laughed heartily, tapping the bamboo slips and saying, "What Zhou Qingchen said is the truth."
"Your Majesty is wise!"
All the ministers shouted in unison, and their voices were loud and sincere.
Chunyu Yue remained unmoved.
The six Confucian scholars remained unmoved.
Chunyu Yue stepped forward and walked towards the First Emperor step by step amid the cheers of his ministers.
Chunyu Yue was sitting at the back, and at first not many people saw him take a step.
But soon, as Chunyu Yue passed more and more people, more and more people saw him moving forward.
The roar of the mountains gradually stopped.
Queen Afang gently patted the second son Ying Gao who was sitting next to her.
"Go to Da Zheng Palace to find your elder brother and tell him everything that happened in Xuanniao Palace."
Ying Gao is fourteen years old and already sensible.
Nodding his little head, the half-grown child rushed out of the Xuanniao Palace and ran towards the Da Zheng Palace.
As soon as Ying Gao arrived outside the palace, the eunuch who usually served him came forward and said, "Master, the matter is urgent. I will take the second young master with me."
The palace is really too big.
From the Da Zheng Palace to the Xuanniao Hall.
Considering the leg strength of a fourteen-year-old boy, it would take at least a cup of tea.
Ying Gao hadn't thought of this just now.
After the eunuch's reminder, I suddenly understood that this seemed to be the truth.
Ying Gao stopped running and turned his head to ask cautiously: "Do you know where I'm going?"
The eunuch stretched out his hand, and a glass bead with a little bit of mixed color lay in the palm of the eunuch's hand.
Ying Gao's eyes lit up and he snatched it away.
"This is the glass ball that my uncle stole from me a few days ago! You are actually my uncle's man? You are so handsome!"
"The water of the three rivers flows together for ten thousand years."
"Take me to the Da Zheng Palace quickly."
The eunuch carried Ying Gao on his back and galloped through the palace.
"Kang Jian, are you a secret guard?"
"It would be good if the Second Young Master knew about this matter."
"Aren't all the secret guards capable of flying and hiding? Why don't you take me to the Zheng Palace?"
"You should read fewer novels."
After saying this, the eunuch hurriedly added.
" This is what Lord Chang'an wants me to answer."
"Uncle's guess was so accurate..."
The young man's voice floated all the way to the Da Zheng Palace with the wind.
"Brother, your teacher asked what merits Father had, and he is looking for trouble with Father!"
As soon as Ying Gao got off the eunuch's back, he rushed into the Da Zheng Palace, shouting as he ran.
Ying Fusu, neatly dressed, was in the front hall. Ying Gao saw his elder brother as soon as he entered the room.
What Ying Gao couldn't understand were the people around Ying Fusu.
"Brother, why are you calling the eunuchs and the palace maids surrounding you?"
Ying Fusu's face was filled with anxiety. He pushed aside the eunuchs who had gathered around him, grabbed Ying Gao, and asked anxiously, "Did the teacher take the initiative to contradict the emperor? Didn't the emperor want to kill the teacher?"
"Brother, come with me. You will know when you get there. Mother is here to call you."
Ying Gao pulled Ying Fusu and walked out.
Crash~
The eunuchs and palace maids who had just surrounded Ying Fusu formed a larger circle, trapping the second son Ying Gao inside.
"Please, Master, have mercy on our lives!"
The eunuchs and palace maids all spoke in unison.
Ying Gao stared blankly at the kneeling people, then turned back to look at his elder brother.
"Brother, what are they doing?"
"My uncle said that if I dare to leave the Zheng Palace, he will execute them all."
"Is this what your uncle said? They are so pitiful." Ying Gao nodded sympathetically.
The eunuchs and palace maids breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the Second Young Master was quite kind.
"But brother, that's not what I'm asking." Ying Gao pointed at the eunuchs and the palace maid and said, "Are they stopping my brother?"
The eunuchs and palace maids were startled.
Ying Fusu didn't understand what Ying Gao meant. The current situation was already very clear, so why would Brother Gao ask such a question?
"Yes."
Ying Gao's eyes were filled with surprise. He turned his head to look at the eunuchs and palace maids who were kneeling in front of him, begging and wailing.
"How dare you do this?" Ying Gao shouted outside the gate of the Zheng Palace: "Kang Jian!"
The eunuch Kang Jian, who had been carrying him to the Zheng Palace, entered the palace, bowed his head and said, "I am here."
Fourteen-year-old Ying Gao stretched out his right arm, extended his right index finger, and drew a line in front of himself.
"Kill them all."
"only."
Xuanniao Palace.
Chunyu Yue had already walked to the first row of the banquet table.
The ministers had stopped cheering long ago and all looked at Chunyu Yue with respect.
Li Si knew that Chunyu Yue was determined, so he stopped scolding and just glared at Chunyu Yue.
The huge Xuanniao Palace.
All one could hear was the gurgling sound of the Jingtong River and the clattering sound of Chunyu Yue's footsteps.
When
Ying Chengjiao threw a wine jar and smashed it in front of Chunyu Yue.
"Stop, stop, stop. Don't go any further. If you go any further, you'll be within the distance where Jing Ke stabbed Your Majesty last time."
"Ignorant boy." Chunyu Yue said with disdain without even looking at Ying Chengjiao.
"Hey, I have such a bad temper!" Ying Chengjiao rolled up his sleeves and wanted to respect the elder.
"Cheng Jiao." The First Emperor stopped him with one word.
Ying Chengjiao sat down angrily.
But this wine jar prevented Chunyu Yue from taking any further steps and he stopped right there.
"Since ancient times, kings have always appointed their sons and meritorious officials to assist them. Now, Your Majesty has implemented a system of counties and kingdoms. The royal capital includes Bashu, Guanzhong, Zhao, Han, Wei and other places. It is important to know that distant water cannot quench nearby thirst. Your Majesty has such a large jurisdiction. If a traitor usurps the throne in the court, will the loyal officials of Qi, Chu and Yan be able to rescue you in time?"
"I have never heard of anyone who can survive long without imitating the ancients, so please think twice, Your Majesty, and don't easily believe Zhou Qingchen's flattering words."
"Your Majesty, unifying the country is a great achievement, but if you do not fully implement the feudal system, it will be a great mistake that will be infamous for thousands of years. It is not advisable to have counties and prefectures running parallel, and the feudal system is the right way!"
The ministers listened quietly and watched blankly.
Some are confused and some are puzzled.
You Confucians are making such a big fuss, are you talking about the feudal system?
Are you collectively suffering from madness?
Your Majesty has agreed to divide the land. Do you Confucians insist on forcing Your Majesty to divide up the whole world?
"Absurd! Fallacy! How ridiculous your words are!"
A man slammed the table and stood up. He had blue eyes and an exotic appearance. He was none other than Wei Zhuang who had blown the charge horn for enfeoffment before.
"Although the systems of the Five Emperors, Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties have similarities, they are different. The times are different and the situations are different. Your Majesty is now creating a unified situation, how can it be compared with the past? The system of counties and kingdoms running in parallel is a system that has never existed before! Are you, a mere Confucian scholar, qualified to talk about governing a country?"
Wei Zhuang said this sincerely.
After he was dismissed from his position as prime minister by the First Emperor, he suddenly heard the news of the parallel system of counties and kingdoms. Wei Zhuang locked himself in the room for three days to think about it, but he could not think of any major flaws in this system.
According to the national conditions of Qin State, both the feudal system and the county system were used.
It neither hinders development nor creates division.
It can win the hearts of the ministers without damaging the emperor's prestige.
It can win the hearts of the people without undermining the interests of Qin.
After thinking about it, Wei Zhuang was really amazed.
"Your Majesty, they are not of our race, so their hearts must be different. The fact that these Hu people are so supportive of the new system proves that this system can destroy the Qin Dynasty. Your Majesty must not be like Xia Jie or Shang Zhou, and give our Chinese land to the barbarians. If you do that, your Majesty will be cursed for thousands of years!"
Wei Zhuang was furious.
He stretched out his legs and rushed over to compete with Chunyu Yue.
Wang Wan stopped the blue-eyed Hu man and looked at Chunyu Yue in confusion.
What exactly do you Confucians want to do?
"Mencius said: 'Evils sent by heaven can be dealt with, but evils brought upon oneself cannot be survived.' It means that sufferings sent by heaven can be dealt with, but sufferings brought upon oneself are difficult to survive. Although Wan does not know what Chunyu Pushe meant, I hope to send these words to Chunyu Pushe."
"The Analects of Confucius says: A gentleman has things he does and things he doesn't do; a villain also has things he does and things he doesn't do. However, what a gentleman does is a great responsibility bestowed by heaven, while what a villain does is only for his own benefit. This means that gentlemen and villains both have things they do and things they don't do. But what a gentleman does is upright and noble, not for fame and fortune. What a villain does is all for fame and fortune. How can you villains understand what a gentleman like me wants to do? Let's cover it up with the words of Zongheng Hou. All of you here are birds."
Chunyu Yue looked at the First Emperor and said loudly: "If Your Majesty does not divide the fiefs, you will be a great bird."
