Prime Minister of Great Qin

Chapter 333: Become a farmer in the morning, and ascend to the Emperor’s Hall in the evening! (13)

immediately.

Fusu seemed to have thought of something.

He suddenly said: "I remember that my husband mentioned before that if the officials of the Affairs Bureau recommend candidates, the court should try their best to accept them. Why is this? Just because these people have served in the Affairs Bureau, they must be lenient?"

Ji Heng glanced at Fusu with a strange expression.

He couldn't help but shake his head.

Sophisticated.

Fusu didn't understand at all.

But Ji Heng also knew that Fusu had a noble status and always treated others with respect, so why did Fusu need to consider these things?However, as a person in charge of power, you may not be proficient in the ways of the world, but you cannot understand them.

Ji Heng said slowly: "The legal system pays attention to fairness and justice."

"But can everything in the world really be implemented in accordance with the law?"

"When Prince Qin committed a crime, if he had followed the law, King Qin Huiwen would have been executed directly. Why was his teacher ultimately punished? This shows that the legal system is ultimately ruled by people, and rule by people is bound to have various biases and preferences .”

"It's just that the legal system pays more attention to justice for the bottom class."

heard.

Fusu was thoughtful.

Ji Heng continued: "You promoted Xiao He and others before issuing the order to seek talents, but can they be promoted truthfully based on the actions of the First Emperor in Guandong? This is impossible."

"If they really want to be promoted, officials like Xiao He would have been promoted after passing the official assessment in the past few years. The reason why they chose not to do so is because they don't want to be promoted. Now they just have some interaction with you. Can you change their minds by giving Shiran an order?"

Ji Heng sneered and shook his head.

He said slowly: "The reason why Xiao He and others were willing to be promoted after receiving your order was actually not the promotion order, but the subsequent order for seeking talents."

"You promote the people they recommend, and they take office accordingly."

"It's a deal."

"So the so-called promotion is not actually promotion."

"It's about wooing and making friends."

"Xiao He and others used this to achieve their own ideas, and you can also use them to take office to further promote the order of seeking talents, attract more people's attention, and more people become officials, so as to attract the hearts of more low-level scholars in Guandong."

"The world is bustling with profit coming and going."

"Vested interests are fundamental."

"If there is no profit, or even more harm than good, even if you are the Crown Prince of Qin, who will really care?"

"And the reason why they agreed is actually very simple."

"First of all, it is indeed related to the First Emperor's thunderous measures in Guandong, which greatly shocked the restoration forces of the Six Kingdoms, suppressed the arrogance of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms, and put an end to the rampant rumors. This undoubtedly made many people feel uneasy. , and the second reason is that you first issued them a promotion order, and then issued a recruitment order, which is undoubtedly a good sign to them."

"Especially since you specially sent them a letter before."

"It makes them feel even more moved."

"If you just promote a few of them, they may not agree, but if you promote a group of people, they will agree."

"Because a person is alone in an unfamiliar environment. If he is not careful, he may make mistakes. And you are far away in Xianyang, how much support can you give them? What can really support them is what they are willing to believe and what they are willing to put. The ones you give your back to will always be the people close to you."

"So they were finally able to agree."

"in addition."

"Your view of the world is too shallow."

"There has always been a saying in the world that 'birds of a feather flock together, and people flock together'."

"You have been in contact with the officials of the Ministry of Affairs, and you should have some understanding of their talents. They are all capable people, but how can you really trust someone who can be trusted by them and willing to recommend them? Is it that bad?”

"Especially when they live at the bottom, where the most philistine reality is."

"Just paying a few official positions to fight for petty officials has made the originally wavering and capable officials completely switch to the court. No matter how you calculate this account, you will make a profit."

Fusu was thoughtful.

He smiled bitterly, cupped his hands and said, "Fusu has learned a lesson."

Ji Heng shook his head lightly.

He said solemnly: "You have been living in the palace in the past. Although you have had contact with the outside world, after all, given your status, how many people dare not to please you? Therefore, the society you understand is always deviating from reality. ."

"The world is never just about fighting and killing."

"It's more of a human connection!"

"It's just that for the emperor's family, it is not necessary to be sophisticated in people's ways, but sometimes forced by the situation, they have to make certain compromises and concessions, so you don't have to be proficient in people's ways, but you must understand them."

"There is a difference between not having a sword in your hand and having a sword but not using it."

Fusu chewed in his heart what Ji Heng said.

It is also suddenly enlightened.

Ji Heng stood up slowly, stood with his hands behind his hands, looked at the bright moon hanging high in the sky, and said calmly: "For Da Qin, from the time when the country was founded, it chose to destroy and establish the country, which is destined to be a difficult road ahead. I think To truly complete the reform, a lot of things need to be done and a lot of effort needs to be put into it, in terms of upward channels.”

"What Da Qin should practice is 'Be a farmer in the morning, and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening'."

"Be a farmer in the morning, and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening." Fusu muttered something in his mouth, and his eyes lit up instantly. Before, he was a little confused and had only a half-understanding, but after hearing this sentence, he suddenly became enlightened.

I also know what I should do.

This is the path that Da Qin will take in the future.

Fusu looked excited.

He kept chewing it in his mouth, and the more he chewed, the more it felt right.

a long time.

Fusu also said with emotion: "Sir, you really have real insights. In just a few words, he directly cleared the way forward for Fusu. Fortunately, Fusu has his guidance, otherwise I don't know how long it would take for him to understand the truth."

"Fusu is grateful."

Fusu bowed respectfully to Ji Heng.

He admires Ji Heng even more now.

From this sentence, Fusu understood that Ji Heng's purpose was very clear and targeted from beginning to end, and he was extremely determined. Everything he did in the past two years was to achieve the goal. This sentence says, "Be a farmhouse man in the morning, and ascend to the emperor's hall in the evening."

And this is also in line with the original intention of Jun Gongjue.

Perhaps there will not be as many people who can serve as officials in the end as with military honors, but at least the Great Qin will give the lower class a channel to rise and give them room to move up, rather than the group of heroes in the court and the powerful local scholars like now. , completely controlled the official channels, leaving the people at the bottom with their backs to the sky and their backs to the earth throughout their lives.

Moreover, they have to endure various increases in taxes and rents.

How can the people at the bottom not feel resentful?

immediately.

The excitement on Fusu's face faded.

Because if you really do this, the resistance you will face will be extremely great.

Fusu sat back on the table again.

He lowered his head and pondered in his mind.

finally.

He raised his head resolutely, with a cold look in his eyes.

He had long been dissatisfied with the imperial court's group of heroes who were already proud of their merits and had been secretly undermining the law. What's more, Ji Heng's previous suggestions had already made it clear that most of these groups of heroes would eventually be cleared out of the court. , As for the local powerful scholars, Fusu didn't care even more.

Da Qin gave scholars opportunities.A doctoral school established since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

But do these celebrities and wise men ever care at all?

Moreover, the Great Qin Dynasty did not abandon scholars, but chose to recruit scholars from the public. Maybe there were not so many people at the bottom who were literate, and their talents were not as comprehensive as the scholars, but the officials at the bottom really needed to be so talented. ?

Obviously not.

Did Da Qin really use so many celebrities?
Naturally not.

If this is the case, what is the impact of abandoning the so-called celebrities?

Besides, who knew that among these low-level literate officials, they could not become capable officials?
Da Qin relies on quantity to win.

In one thought.

Fusu's mentality completely calmed down.

He now fully understands that Da Qin has always been on the right path, but it has never had a clear direction, and its foothold is only to seek change. Now after Ji Heng's reminder, all Da Qin's actions have become clear. Transformation has a purpose. If it is known to the outside world, it will definitely give rise to a sense of sudden enlightenment.

the other side.

Ji Heng looked at the night.

As if he noticed something, he said with a hint of surprise: "It's almost July."

Fusu nodded and said with emotion: "Yes, it will be July soon, and it will be almost half a year since His Majesty's tour. But counting the time, His Majesty will start to return."

Ji Heng didn't answer.

Just looking deeply at the sky.

If he remembered correctly, in history, the seventh month was a month of fire and the emperor fell.

The First Emperor died in July.

At present, the situation in the Qin Dynasty has undergone considerable changes, and the health of the First Emperor has also improved to a certain extent. He may not necessarily die suddenly in July, and even if something happens to the First Emperor, it will not have a great impact on the current situation of the world.

Because the First Emperor had already made arrangements.

Meng Tian is in Xianyang right now.

If something happens to the First Emperor, with Meng Tian in charge, there will be no chaos in Guanzhong. When Fusu comes to power, there may be some turmoil in the first two years, but as long as Fusu grants amnesty to the world, it can basically be maintained.

But in all fairness.

Ji Heng did not want anything to happen to the First Emperor.

When the First Emperor is here, the world is settled.

The world of Great Qin will be much less turbulent, and it will make people feel at ease. Even reforms will encounter much less resistance. If the First Emperor is gone, everything will become much more difficult. Even if Fusu can secure the throne, I think If we want to push forward reforms, we have to pay a higher price and make more compromises. After the compromises, we have to go through a lot of troubles if we want to take back the success in the future.

In the end, it is all living beings who suffer.

Ji Heng stood with his hands behind his hands, thinking of a poem in his mind, and couldn't help but sigh: "The world's winds and clouds come out of my generation, and the time comes when I enter the world."

"In the chat and laughter of Emperor Tubaye, I can't beat life's drunkenness."

“I don’t know how Da Qin’s imperial hegemony will end in the end.”

"I just hope it's not just a big dream."

Ji Heng shook his head.

Looking at Ji Heng who had mixed feelings, Fusu was also filled with emotion, and then sighed: "In the chat and laughter of Huangtu Hegemon, we can't bear the drunkenness of life. But in this world, what choice do we have? Before I met Mr. Fusu was still complacent and wanted to rule the world with kingly principles, but after meeting the teacher and being enlightened by the teacher, he gradually realized the difficulties of the world."

"Fusu actually can't keep up with my father."

"I can't keep up with Mr.'s ideas."

Fusu smiled wryly.

The more he understood the current situation, the more he felt powerless and unsupportable. If Ji Heng hadn't secretly reminded him, he probably wouldn't have been able to cope with it.

Ji Heng turned around, glanced at Fusu, shook his head and said, "You actually underestimate yourself."

"only."

"You have a very talented father."

"You end up looking mediocre."

"You are actually quite normal. How can there be so many born emperors in the world? How can there be so many people who are born with strategism? In fact, most people's talents are not as good as their ambitions. If it were other times, you would be enough to be a competent Shoucheng King, even a generation of wise kings, but you are the heir of the First Emperor. In this transitional stage from chaos to great rule, you are destined to bear more than usual."

"In his position, seek his government."

"It's just too much to take on in that position."

"And with an eternal emperor like the First Emperor in front of you, you are actually destined to live under his influence for the rest of your life."

“Being affected by it all the time.”

"even."

"You can't have too many opinions or too many ideas. The only thing you can do is to fill in the gaps for him. In other words, after you ascend the throne, you will spend your whole life handling the follow-up for the First Emperor."

Fusu chuckled.

His face was filled with honesty and respect.

He smiled and said: "Thank you sir for your enlightenment, but as a son of a man, Fusu is very grateful to his father. Without his father, where would the current unity of the world be? Where would the peace of the world be? How could Fusu seize such a high position?" "

"I am a mediocre person, how dare I think nonsense?"

"Fusu has been very satisfied to be able to solve problems for his father throughout his life."

"Fusu's only wish right now is that his father is in good health."

Ji Heng took a deep look at Fusu and finally said nothing.

Fusu smiled.

He recognized the reality this morning.

I no longer think about realizing my ideals and ambitions.

The only thought was to take over the banner from the hands of the First Emperor and stabilize the Qin Dynasty.

Give future emperors a peaceful world.

As for the others.

He has completely given up.

Ji Heng and Fusu stood side by side, both of them speechless.

Just stood there in silence.

When a gust of breeze blew, there was no one in the courtyard. Ji Heng had already returned indoors, and Fusu's figure had long since disappeared. Only the rustling wind was still floating in the courtyard.

On the rolling carriage.

Fusu sat upright.

After Fusu's carriage sped by, a middle-aged figure slowly appeared to the side. He looked at the carriage's retreating figure, and then looked at the direction in which the carriage was driving, showing a thoughtful expression.

This person did not linger.

He just followed the direction of the carriage and walked forward for a while. When he found an attendant in the dark, he quietly stopped, then looked around for a few times, as if he was surprised that he had taken the wrong way, and then he quickly turned around and left. .

Everything is just passing by.

It didn't attract anyone's attention.
