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

Chapter 537: Those who abide by the law cannot be alone, but those who violate the law and commit crimes can respond to everything!
The ministers made great efforts and sacrifices to tear apart the relatives of the Chu family.

Now that the Chu family relatives have been torn apart, the officials are eagerly preparing to carve up the benefits.

As a result, Ying Chengyu suddenly wanted to introduce a group of new people to seize the benefits. How could the officials be willing to do so?

Those are their trophies!
It's theirs!

Even if Ying Chengyu has outstanding achievements, he can only become the target of public criticism in the face of interests!
Ying Chengyu faced Wang Wan and said in a deep voice: "I believe that those who seek talents can betray the Qin Dynasty and conspire against the Qin Dynasty, just like Wei Yang."

"The recommended talents are also likely to betray the Qin Dynasty, conspire to cause rebellion, just like Xiong Qi and Zheng Anping!"

"Comparing the two, it is the recommended ones who rebel against our great Qin."

"I believe that whether the courtiers can abide by the law does not depend at all on how they entered the Qin Dynasty, but on how we govern the government in the Qin Dynasty!"

Now that Xiong Qi had just rebelled against Qin and surrendered to Chu, and a large number of recommended officials were expelled from the court, Ying Chengyu's rhetoric was very convincing.

But Wang Wan refuted it without hesitation: "False!"

"On the other hand, if you look at the talents obtained through seeking talents, even if there are many law-violators and criminals, it is difficult for one person's crime to cause turmoil in the court, and it is even more difficult to coerce others to commit crimes because of the relationship between recommending or being recommended."

Those who are on the high-ranking side can even use this to coerce many subordinates who had no second thoughts to rebel with him, just like Xiong Qi.

"Those who abide by the laws and regulations cannot be alone, but those who violate the laws and commit crimes can respond to a hundred calls!"

If Ying Chengyu doesn't point out anyone, then Ying Chengyu's words will not stand.

Those in the lower position no longer care about implicating others and can rebel if they want. Instead, they will implicate those ministers who are willing to serve Qin, just like Zheng Anping.

"Recommended talents can be restricted by the recommended person, but how can the talents obtained through seeking talents be restricted?"

"Sad!"

The original intention is good.

"The reason why there are so few people in the Qin Dynasty who seek talents is that the talents gained from seeking talents are even more uncontrollable!"

However, with the development of the times and the decline of morality, the benefits of the recommendation system have been greatly weakened, while the disadvantages of the recommendation system have become more and more obvious.

However, this system of guarantee for common crimes will inevitably lead to collusion and cliques for personal gain.

"There are many people who betray our Qin Dynasty because of their recommendations, but it is because of their recommendations that many people serve our country in the Qin Dynasty."

Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "The talents obtained through recommendation can be restricted by the person being recommended. This is both beneficial and harmful!"

If Ying Chengyu singles out one person, the next round of criticism will begin, and Ying Chengyu's remonstrances will be tacitly ignored.

"The people who are recommended are loyal to the Qin Dynasty, and it is difficult to tell whether the recommended people are loyal or treacherous."

"Can you please contact me so that I can thoroughly investigate and punish you and bring justice to the court!"

"If Xiong Qi hadn't held a high position and recommended many rebellious officials to join the court, how could Xiong Qi's defection cause such an uproar?"

The recommendation system of same-guilt guarantees not only fostered factions in the court, but actually caused bad money to drive out good money, seriously deteriorating the ecology of the court!
Wang Wan could also detect the phenomenon mentioned by Ying Chengyu, and could not launch a counterattack from this angle. He could only seize the loophole in Ying Chengyu's words and punch him: "Mr. Chang'an thought that there were still violations in the Qin Dynasty. To punish criminals?"

The same-guilt guarantee system will allow the recommender to try to restrain the recommended person, and also allow the recommended person to abide by the law in order not to implicate the benefactor.

"If the talent obtained through seeking talents has the intention to violate the law, how do you think Lord Chang'an should control it?"

"The people who are recommended have their hearts set against the Qin Dynasty, but those who are recommended cannot guarantee that they will have their hearts towards the Qin Dynasty!"

Who would have thought that Ying Chengyu would point his finger at himself calmly: "Aren't you one of them?"

"How many laws have I broken?"

"There are so many!"

"If it hadn't been for the great king's repeated protection, I would have been chopped into dozens of pieces!"

Wang Wan: (д；)
It’s his mother’s fault!

Wang Wan really couldn't refute what Ying Chengyu said!
Although no one thought that Ying Chengyu would have second thoughts.

But the crimes committed by Ying Chengyu are simply too numerous to describe!

Ying Chengxuan continued: "As for how to control the talents gained from seeking talents?"

"I think there is no one who can do this better than the imperial censor."

"Today, Da Qin's territory is expanding rapidly and it needs too many officials. Although the courtiers will definitely be able to recommend a large number of talents, it is far from enough to meet our Da Qin's demand for officials."

"What should we do with the remaining official positions after being recommended by our colleagues?"

"I believe that only those who are worthy of their talents should be appointed!"

"So I have to trouble the imperial censor to complete this strategy for me!"

With Ying Chengyu gaining the advantage, Wang Wan thought that he would face Ying Chengyu's violent attack.

But I never thought that Ying Chengyu would actually propose to recommend the ministers to select the remaining positions and then use them to recruit talents!
What else can Wang Wan say?
Could it be said that even if those positions are left vacant, even if the circulation of government orders is blocked, and even if the Qin government is hindered from governing the country, those official positions must be reserved for the courtiers?

How absurd!

Wang Wan suddenly realized that perhaps Ying Chengyu had never considered the issue of profit sharing at all. He was just trying to find enough officials for Da Qin!
Wang Wan laughed at himself and bowed his hands: "Although Lord Chang'an's plan has many omissions, it also has merits."

"The Lord of Chang'an can write this thought into a memorial and submit it to the ministers for discussion."

Ying Chengyu breathed a sigh of relief and held his hands solemnly: "Thank you, Prime Minister!"

After dealing with Wang Wan, Ying Chengyu looked at Wang Jian and Meng Wu again: "I have always tried my best to educate the army, and even opened a military school to teach high-ranking people how to be generals and officials." "What I want is, It is to make our officers and soldiers of Great Qin have the ability to serve as officials!"

Even if Wang Jian, Meng Wu and other generals did not accept Ying Chengyu's advice, they had to admit that Ying Chengyu was right.

Throughout the ancient and modern Qin Dynasty, Ying Chengxuan was definitely the person who went the furthest on the road of preaching to the army. Ying Chengxuan's intention to help the army officers and men enter the court was never concealed.

Ying Chengyu sighed softly: "I firmly believe that the Great Qin Military Academy will contribute many talents to our Great Qin."

"But, it's not enough!"

"Far from enough!"

"The Great Qin Military Academy only has over a thousand people in one term, which is not even enough to support my Great Qin's eastward and westward conquests. How can I be willing to let them work hard to make documents?"

"Even if all the graduates of the Daqin Military Academy from several periods are allowed to join the court as officials, the vacancies for our Daqin officials will only be a drop in the bucket!"

Meng Wu said in a deep voice: "I also know that our great Qin government is short of officials."

"However, the number of nobles in our Great Qin is not just a thousand, but hundreds of thousands!"

"If we can promote enlightenment in the army, so that hundreds of thousands of nobles can read and write, then the shortage of officials in our country in Qin will be solved!"

Ying Chengxuan asked: "Has General Meng ever taught the lieutenants in the army how to read, digit, and handle government affairs?"

Meng Wu's voice weakened and he had no choice but to answer: "I have not, general."

Besides Ying Chengyu, who would have the heart to teach all the soldiers in the army how to read and write and handle government affairs?
Who dares to teach soldiers how to serve as officials on a large scale without clear orders from Ying Zheng?

Do you really think that the Qin Dynasty only allowed legal officials to be teachers just to squeeze the legal officials?
Ying Chengyu said in a deep voice: "I taught you."

"Thanks to the persistence of the soldiers and the help of the legal officials in the army, 130,000 soldiers can read and pronounce, and more than 20,000 soldiers can recite the entire Qin Code."

Wang Jian said happily: "Take a look!"

"More than 20,000 soldiers who can recite "Qin Code" can become officials!"

"Wouldn't this problem of official shortages be solved immediately?"

Ying Chengxuan said regretfully: "I also thought that this move could solve the problem of official shortage."

"Of course, there is a difference between being able to recite the "Qin Code" and being able to use the "Qin Code" and uphold the "Qin Code" as an official."

"After testing by me and the legal officials at all levels, most of the more than 20,000 soldiers can only be minor officials."

"There are less than a thousand people who can be the chief official of a township."

"There are less than a hundred people who can be the chief official of a county."

"And most of these people are military generals, so they are qualified to enter the Great Qin Military Academy!"

Just as a person who can recite the "Civil Code", "Criminal Code", "International Law" and other legal provisions may not necessarily become a qualified judge.

Just like an old scholar who can recite the Four Books and Five Classics may not be able to manage the place well.

Being able to memorize the "Laws of Qin" is the foundation for being an official in the Qin Dynasty, but it is only the foundation. It is still far from becoming a qualified local official!

Meng Wu argued forcefully: "Maybe the soldiers who accompanied Lord Chang'an on this expedition are less intelligent and more brave."

"I thought that if we promote education in the army, many talents will emerge!"

Ying Chengyu frowned slightly: "General Meng's words are ridiculous!"

"The soldiers accompanying me on this expedition are not only brave, but also smart!"

"If they weren't smart, how could there be so many soldiers who not only followed their generals in a series of victories in less than a year, but also used their free time to read and recite the "Qin Code"?"

Meng Wu was speechless.

Have you said all the nice things?

Meng Wu immediately asked: "If this is the case, why did Chang'an Lord abandon the near for the distant?"

Ying Chengxuan said sincerely: "I believe that the intelligence of the soldiers is no worse than that of others."

"What they lack is experience, experience and guidance!"

"As long as they give them time, experience and guidance, they will be able to serve as high-ranking officials."

"Of course, it takes time to train enough legal officials to carry out a great education in the army."

"It also takes time to wait for the soldiers to grow into talents worthy of being officials."

"But our Great Qin territory has been growing rapidly, and what we lack most now is time!"

"Our Great Qin is in urgent need of a group of officials who can be recruited, rather than officials who need several years or even more than ten years of training before they can grow up!"

Although most of the lieutenants of the Great Qin Army came from poor backgrounds, Ying Chengyu never despised their wisdom.

Ying Chengyu always believed that as long as they were given enough time and experience, an army of soldiers could rule the country!
It's a pity that Ying Chengyu doesn't have time for them to grow up, and Da Qin doesn't have time for them to grow up!
Moreover, in Ying Chengxuan's view, the promotion of education in the military is a false proposition.

Ying Chengyu had already given similar advice, but Ying Zheng disagreed!
Wang Jian smacked his mouth: "I don't understand these twists and turns."

"I just want to ask Lord Chang'an a few words."

"The soldiers were knighted, but after being disarmed, they had no official positions to hold. How should I explain to them?"
