Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 471: Unified Thoughts, What the Times Needs (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

Feng went to listen quickly and was silent for a long time.

In this imperial approval, it was written that Chunyu Yue should take charge of the Imperial College.

"Grandpa, actually this is an opportunity."

Feng Changan reminded.

"My grandson can be regarded as a practitioner of both Confucianism and Legalism. There is indeed a lot of usefulness in Confucianism. Moreover, my grandfather just said it himself. It was precisely because Li Si had different political views with that man that he was killed. Grandfather, My grandson thought this was a good opportunity for us.”

"The reputation of Legalism is indecent, and many scholars in the world despise it; the harsh punishment and harsh laws are even more disgusting to the people of the six countries. This is what the imperial historian Wang Wu personally submitted when he inspected the land of Chu. The people of the six countries have long-standing habits In addition, the local officials did not have any effective measures to supervise and implement them one by one, which caused the people to disobey the law and lose their interests because they refused to obey the law. And timid."

After hearing this, Feng Quji just shook his head. He put on his socks and walked straight to the inner room.

Feng Chang'an thought what he said was too stupid, so his grandfather was so angry that he went to the inner room with a blow in his beard and a glare.

Unexpectedly, a voice came from the inner room.

"Come in."

Feng Changan walked in quietly.

What is displayed in the inner room of the imperial prime minister's study will naturally have things like state secrets.

Feng Changan walked in barefoot, and the furnishings inside were simple.

There is a copper lacquer table, eight candlesticks, and an incense burner. But next to the lacquer table, there are many bamboo slips, stacked into a hill.

This bamboo slip is different from ordinary bamboo slips.

Feng Chang'an worked at the Chancellor's desk in the palace and recognized this kind of bamboo slips. If it were not a secret, there would be no need to use such bamboo slips with excellent texture and appearance to record it.

Most of the outer edges of these bamboo slips are pressed, and there are also secret letters sealed in exquisite and small copper boxes among the bamboo slips. At first glance, they are secrets among secrets.

Feng Quji opened the copper box with the most unique appearance and the largest volume. It was not a bamboo slip but a silk book.

"Grandpa - this is it?"

Facing this memorial, Feng Changan habitually knelt down and bowed.

"Yes, this is exactly a secret message that the late emperor received. However, before his death, the late emperor gave this secret message to me. This is the only thing the late emperor asked me, Feng Quji. Take a look."

Feng Quji had a calm face, but Feng Changan frowned when faced with the late emperor's secret message. He took the silk book respectfully and then unfolded it to read.

""Spring and Autumn Dew"——"

Feng Changan read, and then he took it and started reading.

Feng Quji watched Feng Changan read with gusto. The room was warm. He had not slept all night last night. The warmth and tiredness came together, which naturally made Feng Quji fall asleep quickly. He Then he covered himself with clothes, propped up his head with his arms and lay down to sleep.

The inner room was warm and bright, and Feng Changan sat in the inner room and read with gusto.

"The unity of heaven and man...wonderful!"

"The unification of the Spring and Autumn Period, isn't this what the time demands?"

Feng Changan spent a whole hour reading "Spring and Autumn Fan Lu" through.

It was already noon, and the snow reflected the golden light of the sun. Soon the snow layer became thinner, and there were more people on the street.

Being in the Prime Minister's Mansion, it was so quiet that the sound of the snow on the eaves melting and falling to the ground could be clearly heard.

Feng Changan read to the end, and his expression suddenly changed again.

"Grandfather—this!"

Feng Quji was awakened at the right time, stretched leisurely, and then sat upright.

"Grandfather, the person who wrote this memorial turned out to be..."

Feng Changan was so surprised that he could not speak coherently.

"This is exactly what your Majesty presented to the late Emperor. The late Emperor did not dare to make it public when he got this book, so he had to leave it to me for detailed study. But you, why are you so surprised?"

Feng Changan calmed down, but he began to admire and worship the new emperor in his heart.

"Your Majesty is good at writing, and the world knows it. Your Majesty has mentioned the matter of abolishing the law and establishing Confucianism before. Now that I think about it, this article must have been written by your Majesty."

"Then do you still think that His Majesty wants to abolish the law and establish Confucianism?"

Feng Changan shook his head violently.

Feng Quji reached out and asked for the silk book back, then spread it out on the table and finally rolled it up and sealed it in a copper box.

"Your Majesty wants to wrap Confucianism in the art of Legalism, and now the world is in need of the art of unifying the great power of heaven and humanity. Although the territory is one, people's hearts are not the same."

Feng Quji nodded, his white hair shining golden in the sunlight.

"However, the late emperor once said that if we do this, I am afraid that the foundation of the Qin State will be damaged. Before the death of the late emperor, if there was anything he was worried about about your majesty, it was this matter. Don't look at your majesty today. He and the late Emperor may seem to have very different personalities, but in fact they are both people who will not give up until they achieve their goals."

"You gave me your Majesty's imperial approval yesterday. I knew that instead of giving up on this matter, Your Majesty was already making preparations."

"Letting Chunyu Yue and Meng Yi take charge of the Imperial Academy separately, isn't this the way to promote Confucianism? And I recently learned that His Majesty intends to let several great Confucians join the Chancellor's office. You must have heard about this. "

"My grandson has heard about it, but he also knows that someone in the court has already complained about this matter."

"It's natural to have criticisms. Among the three princes and nine ministers in our Qin Dynasty, none of them came from the Legalists, or Wang Wu, the censor, whose father was also a member of the Legalists."

"But Sun'er thinks that if the imperial censor learns that His Majesty intends to bring Confucianism into power, the imperial censor will not hesitate."

Feng Quji listened and he and Feng Changan looked at each other and smiled.

"What you said is right. That's why Your Majesty will pay more attention to Wang Wu, and even let Wang Wu influence Gao Wo and Meng Tian in the court."

Feng Changan finally heard about his grandfather Timengtian.

"Actually, my grandson has never understood that Meng Tian was clearly the more threatening to his grandfather's position as prime minister. Why was his grandfather not worried about Meng Tian being worshiped as the Dazhu Kingdom, but instead became angry about Wang Wu's affairs."

"Grandfather has now reached the top of the mountain. If he falls, it will not only be grandfather who falls to death, but the entire Feng family. If your Majesty really trusts Meng Tian, ​​he will let him stay in the army instead of choosing to He stays by his side. Confessing Dazhu Kingdom is a virtual reality, but seizing military power is the real thing."

"The first emperor wanted your majesty to appoint Meng Tian as prime minister in order to take back the military power, but the new emperor obviously had other plans. Just watch, a new general will appear in the empire soon. As for Wang Wu, his It’s the emperor who really has the backing behind him.”

"What I'm most worried about now is that if I obstruct His Majesty in this matter, Your Majesty will directly promote Wang Wu to prime minister."

After hearing this, Feng Changan's face froze, as if he had been frozen into a lump in the bucket last night.
