My brother Ying Zheng, who dares to kill me?.

Chapter 1014: A clan should be neat and tidy! This house is nice, I want it!
In the afterglow of the setting sun, Chang'an Bookstore turned into a frenzy of excitement.

Tang Min looked at the setting sun in the sky, and for a moment he didn't know whether the sun was about to set or their era was about to set.

But Tian Huan had no time to think about it.

Tian Jia's gaze was like a thorn in his back, making Tian Huan feel like he had something stuck in his throat and was sitting on pins and needles. He had no choice but to try to save himself and stepped forward. He bowed and whispered, "May I ask, Lord Chang'an, do you really want to abandon the doctrine of Zhou Li and other doctrines that advocate feudal fiefdoms?"

As a person who aspires to become the King of Qi, Tian Huan's vision and cognition are far higher than ordinary people.

Unlike Confucian scholars like Dai Li and Xun Huo who were easily led astray by Ying Chengjiao, Tian Huan knew very well that Ying Chengjiao did not respect the cultural atmosphere of Linzi City as he said, and he knew even more clearly that Ying Chengjiao definitely did not value Linzi as much as he described.

Chang'an Bookstore is indeed of great benefit to the people and can greatly boost literary fortunes, but if Ying Chengjiao did not have a deeper purpose, he would never have opened the Chang'an Bookstore in Linzi City first!
Could it be that Ying Chengjiao's love for Linzi exceeds his love for Chang'an Township?

This is absolutely impossible!

After much deliberation, Tian Huan finally sorted out the most likely truth based on the attitude of Linzi literati towards the Qin Dynasty, the ideological spirit of "Zhou Li" and Ying Chengjiao's attitude towards governing the country.

Crack down on or even eradicate books such as "The Book of Zhou" that support the idea of ​​feudal fiefdom, and then use the books in Chang'an Bookstore as compensation to appease the public anger!

Facing Tian Huan's eager gaze, Ying Chengjiao looked at Tian Huan and asked calmly, "Why do you ask this, Master Huan?"

Tian Huan shuddered and hurriedly said, "Qi is dead, and the so-called Prince Huan no longer exists."

"I am just a commoner. You can call me by my first name, Chang'an Jun. Please do not tease me by calling me Young Master!"

"The reason why I asked this question is because I have admired the name of Chang'an Jun for a long time and have long been willing to be his disciple!"

"If Chang'an Jun really has this intention, Tian is willing to do his best to help Chang'an Jun realize this!"

The appearance of Tian Jia forced Tian Huan to change his thinking.

Tian Huan knew that it would not be as easy for him to gain Ying Chengjiao's trust as Tian Jia, but Tian Huan also knew that his ability was far superior to Tian Jia's, and he could do much more for Ying Chengjiao than Tian Jia could do for Ying Chengjiao!

Ying Chengjiao looked at Tian Huan steadily, and suddenly chuckled: "Am I such a narrow-minded person in the eyes of Master Huan?"

Tian Huan was panicking and hurriedly bowed again: "I have absolutely no such intention!"

Ying Chengjiao turned his gaze back to Dai Li and other students, and said in a gentle voice: "I will not prevent the spread of classics such as "Zhou Li", nor will I stop students from reciting "Zhou Li"."

"I just feel deeply that the shortage of officials in the current Qin Dynasty is serious. Even if I set up a military school and propose to select officials according to the imperial examination system, it will be difficult to make up for the shortage."

"I sincerely hope that Chang'an Bookstore can train more talents and officials for our Great Qin, so that the various government offices of the Great Qin can govern the people normally as stipulated by the court, so as to avoid chaos in various places."

“The road to truth is long, but the people of the world cannot wait!”

"In extraordinary times, we can only do extraordinary things, and practicality and usability are the most important!"

The path that Tian Huan talked about was similar to Ying Zheng’s plan of burning books, but the path that Ying Chengjiao wanted to take was different from the path that Ying Zheng wanted to take!

What Ying Chengjiao needs to do is to massively expand the number of books that conform to the core values ​​of the Qin Dynasty, reduce the difficulty for ordinary people to obtain such books, and guide more students to have access to the most abundant books that conform to the core values ​​of the Qin Dynasty at the first time through fame, wealth and power through the examination of different subjects.

Today, there are ten people who follow "Zhou Li" and one person who follows miscellaneous scholars. The voices of Confucian scholars in the world supporting feudal fiefdoms are even stronger.

One year later, there were only twenty people who followed the "Book of Zhou Rites" and a thousand people who followed the "Qin Laws". Even if there were more people who followed the "Book of Zhou Rites" at that time, the voices of Confucian scholars in the world in support of feudal fiefdoms would still be very small, and they would become a minority and be isolated by the world.

The enemy's voice will naturally be drowned out by the voice of the people!

At this point, if Ying Zheng carried out the policy of burning books again, it would not cause turmoil in the world or resentment among Confucian scholars. Instead, it would be a move that conformed to the will of the people.

Who can say that Ying Chengjiao and Ying Zheng were narrow-minded and cruel?
As expected, the common people and the powerful people all hurriedly bowed in astonishment: "Chang'an Jun is indeed a saint!"

Tian Huan also made a face of regret and said: "I am judging others by my own standards."

"The broad-mindedness, kindness, and love for the people of Lord Chang'an are like looking at the bright moon through a fluorescent light!"

Ying Chengjiao's heart was not stirred at all by these compliments. He just looked at Tian Huan with a half-smile and said, "Mr. Tian?"

"Since Prince Huan is a member of the Tian clan, why didn't he obey the king's order and move his entire clan to Guanzhong?"

Tian Huan's heart tightened, and he solemnly said the words he had prepared long ago: "In the past, the King of Qi was deceived by treacherous ministers and actually betrayed the alliance with Qin, and together with the two countries of Dai and Yan, he raised troops to attack Qin!"

"Tian is a former Qi general and will also go with the army."

"After hearing that Qi had returned to Qin, Tian was extremely excited and wanted to return to Qin with Qi that day, but was stopped by Dai Wu'an Jun and had no choice but to become an accomplice to the tiger."

"I can only be free when the war is over. So I immediately gave up the fame and fortune that Daiguo had given me and returned to Daqin!"

"When Tian returned to Qin, all the members of the Tian clan had gone to Guanzhong. Tian was at a loss as to what to do next."

"Fortunately, I learned that Lord Chang'an was going to Linzi, so I waited in Linzi, hoping to become Lord Chang'an's disciple and serve him!"

There is no falsehood in Tian Huan's itinerary and actions, and they can withstand scrutiny.

But the reason why Tian Huan returned to Daqin was not because he had already been loyal to Daqin, but because the Qi generals and soldiers who were taken to Dai were all led by the former Qi Crown Prince Tian Sheng. It was impossible for Tian Huan to realize his political ambitions in Dai. He also heard that the Tian family of the former Qi had all been moved to Guanzhong, so he wanted to return to the former Qi to try his luck!
After finishing his prepared speech, Tian Huan lowered his head slightly, holding his breath and preparing to respond to Ying Chengjiao's questioning and testing.

But what Tian Huan didn't expect was that Ying Chengjiao actually nodded slightly and said, "I see!"

"This is not your fault, but the court did not consider that there might be people from the old Qi Tian clan who would return to the old Qi land after the eighth migration."

"Linzi is my fief, so I will make the decision."

Can Zi immediately stepped forward and replied in a deep voice, "Disciple is here!"

Ying Chengjiao ordered: "As a clan, we should be neat and tidy!"

"Tomorrow we will search the entire county and summon the county magistrates of Langya, Qi and other counties to cooperate and make sure to find all the former members of the Qi Tian clan."

"Three days later, assign skilled personnel based on the number of descendants of the Qi Tian clan that you have obtained, and make sure to send Prince Huan and all the other members of the Qi Tian clan back to Guanzhong safely, securely, and quickly!"

Can Zi bowed solemnly: "Yes!"

Tian Huan immediately became anxious: "Lord Chang'an! I only wish..."

Ying Chengjiao interrupted Tian Huan's self-rescue and said with a faint smile: "Although I helped Master Huan's family reunite, Master Huan does not need to thank me."

Tian Huan was so anxious that he almost jumped up: "Tian thanked Chang'an Jun for his kindness, but Tian..."

Still not letting Tian Huan finish, Ying Chengjiao said seriously: "The number of people migrating this time may not be large, but it is the ninth migration after all."

"If my prediction is correct, Prince Huan will call himself the Ninth Huan in the future!"

Tian Huan: The Ninth Huan???

What the hell is this name!!!
How can there be such a careless surname!
Tian Huan cried out in a sad voice: "Lord Chang'an! I am Gui Ling's brother!"

"I beg Lord Chang'an to be magnanimous for Ling'er's sake!"

The last trace of smile in Ying Chengjiao's eyes slowly faded away. He took a step forward, pressed Tian Huan's shoulder, and asked softly, "Why do you think you are still standing here alive?"

Ying Chengjiao simply placed his hand lightly on Tian Huan's shoulder, but Tian Huan felt as if a mountain was pressing down on his shoulder!
And Ying Chengjiao's cold gaze made Tian Huan's heart feel as if it was grasped by a big hand!
The clothes on his back were completely soaked with cold sweat. Tian Huan lowered his head and said in a trembling voice: "Tian, ​​no, the ninth one thanks Lord Chang'an for his magnanimity!"

Ying Chengjiao patted Jiuhuan on the shoulder and said calmly, "Go."

The Ninth Huan took two steps back as if he had been pardoned, and hurriedly bowed: "Yes!"

Seeing Dijiu Huan stretching out his hands to Can Zi and waiting to be shackled, Tang Min and other common people and powerful people were all stunned.

Ever since Tian Huan returned to Qi, the people of Qi have secretly regarded Tian Huan as their leader, and all kinds of plans have been formulated under the leadership of Tian Huan.

As a result, now the leader has become the investor?

So what should they do!
Ying Chengjiao glanced at Tang Min and the others, and said in a cold voice: "Since no one welcomes me to Linzi, I will save myself the polite greetings."

"Pass on my order to set up camp outside the city and conserve your energy!"

Tang Min and others were even more confused.

God, behold! All the leaders of the powerful and wealthy forces around Linzi have been waiting for you and accompanying you for nine hours! Is this not considered a welcome?

And what do you mean by "recuperating your energy"? !

Tang Min hurriedly stepped forward and saluted: "Why do you say that, Lord Chang'an? Why do you say that?"

"We have long admired the name of Lord Chang'an. We did not get a chance to visit Lord Chang'an three times during his visit to Linzi, which has kept us awake all night and made us feel very regretful!"

"Now that Lord Chang'an has finally arrived in Linzi, I beg Lord Chang'an not to leave in a hurry. You should at least let us show our respect!"

"I only hope that Lord Chang'an will not regard me as a despicable person and do me the honor of staying at my humble home!"

Ying Chengjiao asked back, "How cold is it?"

Tang Min: Huh???

Fortunately, Tang Min reacted quickly and said immediately: "Compared to Chang'an Jun, 99% of the houses in the world are my humble abode."

"Although I am proud of my own house, it is still a humble abode compared to the dignity of Lord Chang'an!"

Ying Chengjiao nodded slightly and took the initiative to move forward: "Since you are so sincere, I will not hurt your kindness."

"Lead the way."

Tang Minxi's toes were curled up, and she quickly stretched out her right hand and said, "Changan Jun, please!"

The Confucian scholars and veterans were unaware of Ying Chengjiao's departure and were still squatting in the Chang'an Bookstore looking for their future and hope.

The common people, the powerful and the wealthy surrounded Ying Chengjiao and went to Tang Mansion, looking for their own turning point and way to survive!
Not long after, the group arrived at the Tang family's residence in Linzi.

Tang Min smiled carefully and flatteringly: "Changan Jun, please!"

Ying Chengjiao did not lift his feet, but looked around the outer courtyard of the mansion and said, "This house is nice."

"I want it."
