Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 238: Combination of Confucianism and Legalism, haven’t I thought about it? (Please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

"Your Majesty is the head of a country. If you only serve your own selfish interests, how can the world last long?"

Ying Zheng naturally frowned after hearing this.

But soon, he became very disdainful of Fusu's words, and he immediately snorted coldly.

This cold snort made Fusu feel cold.

Before leaving the palace, Fu Suzi thought about it carefully.If the result of the satire is good, then the history of Qin will begin to be rewritten right after Ying Zheng proclaimed himself emperor; even if Ying Zheng's changes are very weak, for a newly born empire, the changes made by Ying Zheng alone are enough. Too much has changed.

And if the result of the sarcasm is not good, it will not be a big loss for him.

Ying Zheng will not depose the prince by accident.

"Be flat."

Ying Zheng suddenly said.

Fusu thought he had heard wrongly and looked at Ying Zheng slightly, but his face was still ashen.

Fusu stood up dubiously.

"Thank you, father——"

Ying Zheng suddenly said.

"Although there are tens of thousands of people, you are still going."

After hearing this, Fusu bowed his head solemnly.

Ying Zheng saw his obedient look and said leisurely.

"I have been in politics for many years, and few people have criticized me."

"The king's father has a clear virtue. This is something that everyone in the court knows. In the past, in front of all the ministers of the court, when your Majesty heard the words of the state captain, he not only did not blame him, but worshiped him as the state captain; later, the king My father listened to Mao Jiao's advice and took Grandma Fusu back to Xianyang Palace, so my father made Mao Jiao a doctor."

"Both of these can be seen that His Majesty cares about the world and can accommodate all things. He is indeed a wise monarch rarely seen in the ages."

When Ying Zheng heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched slightly.

If an emperor is not ambitious, he will become a short-sighted person.

"Is that why you are deliberately challenging my patience?"

Farewell to Fu Su.

"This is not what I want. I am just doing it for the Great Qin Empire. I think that if your Majesty is not kind to the people of the world, your majesty's ambition for thousands of generations will only become a dream."

When Ying Zheng heard this, he couldn't help but feel jealous.

This kid only thinks about how to govern the world.

How can the world be governed by father and son?

It never happened before, and it never will happen in the future.

"What do you mean, if you are a king and a general, you are better than me?"

Fusu was also frightened after hearing this.

"I would never dare to think this before I knew it. Your Majesty, please take a closer look."

Ying Zheng was very calm after hearing this.

"In the whirlpool of power, it is a crime to do something, and it is also a crime not to do anything."

Fusu felt moved in his heart.

"Your father is wise."

"On that day, you said that I was a tyrannical king, but afterwards I thought deeply about myself and asked myself that my words and deeds were not wrong, so how could I say that I was tyrannical?"

Ying Zheng really reflected on himself.

He does have some similarities with King Zhou in that they both want to make a career.

But Di Xin failed and was defeated by Di Xin instead.

The land of Qilu and the hometown of Jingchu is full of hidden dangers.No matter what, one day King Wen will appear in the land of Qilu...

Such consequences are obviously something that Ying Zheng does not want to see.

In order to maintain the unification of the world, I will do it even if there are many difficulties and dangers ahead!
And at the moment, Ying Zheng already understood what Fusu Wangwan and others told him.

He can use thousands of soldiers and horses to conquer the world, but he can't stop the mouths of thousands of people.

And this process of conquering the hearts and minds of the people of the world obviously cannot be used in the past.

Looking at Ying Zheng's calm, resolute and cold face, it was obvious that nothing had changed in him.

Has Ying Zheng really reflected on himself?
Fusu was dubious.

If it is true, it will stimulate him to push Ying Zheng to take the right path.

"Your Majesty has a reputation for tyranny. In fact, Qin attacked the six countries. Wherever the iron cavalry went, people died and cities were destroyed, and the world was afraid. Now that the world is unified and there is no more war, if your Majesty has the intention to burn books, it will undoubtedly be Show the harsh side of His Majesty to the people of the world."

What Fusu wanted to talk about was, of course, the burning of books.

When Fusu watched helplessly, Ying Zheng, who he had been accompanying for a year, when he faced a matter that could have been solved easily and safely, he instead used very violent means, and pointed the finger directly at the scholars. .

This move will naturally be criticized by people all over the world.

Ying Zheng just said.

"I have decided to burn books. Books cannot be burned, and private studies must be banned. However, I am determined to accept books from all over the world."

Fusu opened his mouth slightly.

No more burning books.

It seems that Ying Zheng really compromised.

But then, Fusu lowered his head again.

Receive the book of the world.

The name is indeed nice, but isn’t it just confiscating and robbing books from the countryside?
Fusu's mind already had scenes of Qin soldiers destroying private schools and robbing scholars of their classics.

This move will definitely cause an uproar in the world.

Fusu asked again.

"I wonder if Your Majesty has ever thought about changing the name of this matter?"

"Speak and listen to me."

"The world has a history of a thousand years, and the countries have a history of 500 years. Everyone has their own sentiments. If you collect books, the people will naturally be willing to do so. Why not collect them from the people on the grounds that compiling new laws requires local customs, people, and aspirations? Books. He also used gold to buy books on the pretext of filling up the collection of books in our Great Qin Shangshutai. When the people heard of the benefits, they would definitely donate books one after another."

Ying Zheng's eyes naturally lit up after hearing this.

That's a good idea.

"This plan is very clever."

Ying Zheng thought to himself, fortunately, the previous edict has not been issued yet.

Fusu added.

"Your Majesty wanted to abolish private schools earlier, but I thought it would be better to establish primary schools all over the world while abolishing private schools. Teach them Qin Law and Qin Wen."

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows.

"Educate the people? Demonstrate my benevolence and righteousness to those leaders of Guizhou? Don't you hear the teachings of our ancestor Han Fei? The rule of saints is not suitable for today's world."

Fusu was worried and said timidly.

"Father, the Master - it was the Master who mentioned "Five Worms" in Korea when he saw that Korea was about to be destroyed by Qin's crossbows. At that time, the world was still raging with war, and Korea was weak and exhausted, and was completely unable to fight against Qin. .”

"The first master is the son of Han, and he is worried about his country, so he wrote this article to seek the strength of Korea to resist Qin. Therefore, this method is used in wartime, but not suitable for today's world."

"Your Majesty has now unified the seven kingdoms, and the people of the world are all surrendered to your Majesty's feet. Such achievements are beyond the reach of the three emperors and five emperors; the territory that he rules is beyond the reach of the Emperor of Zhou; and all the princes in the world are not as good as your Majesty."

When it comes to flattering, Fusu is also very good at it.

Ying Zheng was naturally very happy after hearing this.

Fusu changed the subject.

"The current situation in the world is unprecedented in the history of the Yanhuang land. Since our ancestors have already said: It is common for saints to violate the law if they do not seek to cultivate the past. Then I think that your majesty is in an unprecedented situation, so it is even more important. Don’t look forward to repairing the past. The old system of Qin Dynasty should be reformed to cope with the world."

"And benevolence and righteousness - although it does not apply to ancient times, many people today praise Yao, Shun and Yu. Therefore, the government of benevolence and righteousness is indeed advisable. Although the Qin law is strict, it restrains the ministers and cannot be illegal, so The law cannot be abolished. And benevolence and righteousness may not be useless."

"Your Majesty, why don't you combine these two into one?"

As soon as Fusu's words came out, Ying Zheng suddenly became enlightened all over his body.

Isn’t benevolence and righteousness just Confucianism and Taoism, and isn’t law just the art of the emperor?

Fu Su suddenly coincided with Ying Zheng.

But Ying Zheng still put on a cold face.

"The combination of the two is wonderful. Haven't I thought about it?"

Between Confucianism and Legalism, Ying Zheng had indeed vacillated for a long time as to which one he should choose.

But to combine the two, it sounds nice, but how to combine it.

"A country should only have one set of standards for governance. Using Confucianism and Legalism at the same time will only lay the foundation for future turmoil in the country."

(I’m going to take the exam! Wish me good luck.

Then there will be no updates in the past two days. I hope you can still recommend monthly tickets to support me and help me rush to the data list. It is almost the end of the month. Thank you everyone! )
