Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 219: The establishment of Imperial College, the central official school (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)
Ying Zheng's edict was issued, but within a month, people from various schools of thought poured into Xianyang City.

Xiao He was wearing plain clothes and holding a wine bag in his hand. He was pushed here and there by the crowd, and was finally rolled into an alley.

Everyone said that the front of the Xianyang Palace was empty and solemn, but in front of the gate of the general, prime minister, and doctor, there were cars and horses like a dragon, and there was an endless stream of pedestrians.

Comparing the two, Xiao He couldn't help but stand on a high ground and stop and watch.

The scorching sun was above our heads, and the crowns of the two willow trees were like canopies. Their branches drooped under the scorching sun.

Because there was an endless stream of pedestrians coming and going, the dust was constantly flying on this road.

High-ranking officials also greeted guests from far away in front of the mansion.

The guest system has not yet been abolished. Those who are invited to come to Xianyang can only have the opportunity to be recommended to the imperial college that is being built by joining the ranks of high-ranking officials and living there temporarily.

The Ministry of Industry ordered Ji Hao to build another building directly south of Xianyang Palace, covering an area of ​​5000 hectares, in order to accommodate Fusu's request to accommodate [-] people.

There is no doubt that this is another big project.

For a time, just south of Xianyang, tens of thousands of prisoners gathered again, knocking stones on the open ground, laying foundations, rolling wood, and pushing materials on carts.

Standing on the high platform of Xianyang Palace in the northwest, you can clearly see the large museum building under construction in the distance.

The name of the building has been established, it is Taixue.

This residence of the central official school was mainly used for the compilation of new laws.

There are so many scholars in the state of Qin who are familiar with the law. In the future, all of them will be moved to this imperial school in order to study new laws.

Not only that, more and more disciples from hundreds of schools will flock to this Imperial Academy.

At this moment, Ying Zheng was standing on the high platform of Xianyang. He looked at the Imperial College which was being repaired and at the many cars and horses on the street.

On the towering high platform, Ying Zheng could not help but recite a poem.

"Duke Zhou vomits and feeds, and the world returns to its heart."

Fusu's expectations for Taixue were much higher than Ying Zheng's desire to attract talents from all over the world to come and pledge their allegiance.

Taixue is the central official school. It is not only used to compile new laws, but also to control the world's cultural education.

"Father, I wonder who will be entrusted with the duty of offering wine after the Imperial College is completed?"

Ying Zheng held out his slightly bulging belly and looked at Xianyang with a bit of melancholy in his eyes.

Taixue offers wine——

The first person Ying Zheng thought of was naturally Li Si.

Li Shi knew the law well, and he once became a disciple of Xun Qing, a high-ranking disciple of Confucianism.Li Si can be regarded as a scholar of both Confucianism and Legalism.

But Li Si was already a court captain, and he also served as a sacrificial wine drinker.

Among the others, Meng Yi is a master of law, and I have always wanted to promote him, but Meng Yi is too young.

For a moment, Ying Zheng himself couldn't make up his mind.

"Do you have anyone to recommend?"

Fusu smiled.

He really didn't know about this.

"Your Majesty, you are putting your minister in a difficult situation. There are only two nerds under your command, and these two are only in their early thirties. How can they afford the sacrifice of our Qin Imperial Academy?"

After hearing this, Ying Zheng didn't ask any more questions, and slowly moved forward with his sword along the pillars supporting the eaves of the palace.

Fusu held his sword and followed Ying Zheng, his eyes focused on the hem of Ying Zheng's crown uniform, watching the black hem swaying.

The position of offering wine must be held by a person with high moral standing and profound knowledge.

Looking at the court, when talking about people with high moral prestige and rich knowledge, Ying Zheng naturally thought of Wang Wan, Li Si, Feng Quji and others.

But Ying Zheng did not ignore his Ph.D. servants.

Chun Yuyue——

After Ying Zheng denied Li Si, he quickly thought of him.

But he is a Confucian scholar.

Appointing a famous Confucian scholar to serve as the Imperial Academy's wine sacrificer was undoubtedly a matter of great concern to the ministers of the Qin State.

The tide of political reform actually made the generals in the court panic.

If I continue to offer Confucianism as a sacrificial wine at this time, wouldn't it make the ministers think that I have the heart to value Confucianism?

Law is the foundation of Qin.

After much thought, Ying Zheng made an important decision.

It was this decision that directly led to the distance between Li Si and Phase.

"I have decided to order Li Si to serve as the sacrificial wine."

Fusu felt a little happy after hearing this.

Li Si actually has no foresight on the empire's politics. If he steps down from his high position, it will be easier for a truly knowledgeable person to take over.

The three ministers and nine ministers, the high positions with real power, are all monopolized by those old ministers.

And this wine ceremony is not a ministerial position. Letting Li Si serve as the wine priest actually demoted him by several official ranks.

Li Si is definitely aware of this.

However, Fusu wanted Li Si to fall from the peak of power and not rise again. This person's influence on the Qin Empire was almost always evil.

And once he becomes the sacrificial wine, if he dares to propose such things as threatening books or burning books to embarrass Confucians.It would be easier to move him when the time comes.

Fusu's face showed embarrassment.

"Master Li is knowledgeable about the past and present, and is well versed in the law. He is also the person appointed by the king's father to compile the new law. He is indeed the most suitable candidate for the post of sacrificial wine. However, Li Tingwei is one of the Nine Qings. , Now that Jun’s father suddenly asked him to serve as the Imperial College’s sacrificial wine, I’m afraid Li Si may not be willing to accept it?”

Ying Zheng turned around immediately after hearing this.

Fusu stopped walking.

"You mean, Li Si dares to disobey my orders?"

"My son just feels that Li Tingwei may not be willing to go."

For Ying Zheng, Fusu's words were the same as before.

Ying Zheng didn't care if Li Si was willing or not, all he wanted was for Li Si to be obedient and serve as the sacrificial wine.

Regarding Li Si's character, Fu Su had already told Ying Zhengming before.

This time, Fusu inadvertently hinted to Ying Zheng about Li Si's ambitions.

Li Si wanted to be the prime minister.

Fusu's words quickly took effect.

Ying Zheng immediately gave the order.

"The imperial edict was passed down. Li Si, the imperial officer, is a highly virtuous man and has learned from ancient times to the present. The imperial college of our country is about to become a mature one. I think that because of his advanced age and meritorious deeds, he will be able to control the imperial college. I asked Li Si to offer wine to the imperial college."

After hearing this, Shangshu Ling praised him repeatedly, and then went down to draft the imperial edict.

"Then Mr. Jun, can Li Si still be a court lieutenant?"

"Let Li Si concentrate on codifying the new law."

Fusu asked again.

"Then who will be given the position of Tingwei?"

Ying Zheng looked into the distance. The extreme point of his gaze was the intersection of the cyan horizon and the white sky.

"Meng Yi."

Fusu was surprised when he heard the name.

In fact, Fusu thought that Ying Zheng would mention Wang Wan's son Wang Wu.

In fact, Wang Wu was the best candidate for the post of Ting Wei in terms of age and status in the court.

As for Meng Yi, although everyone in the court knew that he knew the laws of Qin, his age was too young.

Meng Yi is now only 32 years old.Meng Yi's brother Meng Tian is only 35 years old and has never been a general.

Although in history, Meng Yi also served as a minister, and he must have been a court official.

However, at the beginning of the founding of the country, Ying Zheng appointed a 32-year-old Meng Yi as a court captain. Ying Zheng was too fond of Meng Yi.

Moreover, if Meng Yi can serve as a court captain, then Zhang Cang can also serve as the Taixue's liberator.

Ying Zheng looked at Fusu who looked confused.

"Why, do you think my edict is inappropriate?"

Fusu answered honestly:
"Doctor Meng, you are too young. The position of Tingwei is one of the nine ministers. Your father asked Doctor Meng to serve as Tingwei. What does this make the doctor in the middle of the court who is over fifty think?"

After hearing this, the attendants and officials on the side couldn't hold it back for a moment. They all couldn't help laughing and laughed out loud.

Fusu looked to the left and right, puzzled.

"Why are you laughing at me?"

(Hurrah, spin in a circle, thank you all for your monthly votes and recommendation votes! I will go home on the 28th. During the next two months of vacation, I will definitely repay you with thousands of updates. Bow)
