Chapter 133 Li Si's Objection (Please recommend, thank you!!!)

In the Qilin Hall, Ying Zheng listened carefully to Fusu's report.

Sometimes nodding and sighing, sometimes silent.

After Fusu finished speaking, the hall was already full of discussions.

"The minister also bought this newspaper, the writing is really good!"

"Those articles, my blood boils after reading those articles!"

"Who thought of this? It's really ingenious. It promotes the power of the Great Qin and frightens the world. In this way, all the people will return to their hearts, and the country of the Great Qin will become more stable. Good!"

"Need to say? It must be the method given by the immortal master!"

"Immortal masters always have these exquisite ideas, which make us feel so incomprehensible!"

"Is it a fairy, how can we compare shoulder to shoulder?"

……

"Good job!" Ying Zheng praised with a smile.

Fusu blushed slightly, and was very excited to be recognized by Ying Zheng.

"Your Majesty!" Li Si stood up, "I have something to say about this newspaper!"

"Oh?" Ying Zheng smiled, "What's the prime minister's opinion?"

Li Si straightened his expression, and said seriously: "This newspaper is an important weapon of the country, and the articles on it will be circulated by the whole world, so we must carefully select them!"

"And Mr. Fusu and his ministers have revealed that starting from the next issue, there will be a section called 'A Hundred Schools Controversy'."

"That's right." Ying Zheng nodded, "This was decided by the immortal master early in the morning, and Fusu also told me about it."

"Your Majesty, no!" Li Si hurriedly said: "In this way, can Confucianism, Taoism, etc. be able to spread their ideology all over the world?"

"Great Qin established the country by law. This 'contending of a hundred schools of thought' section is not good for the country. Please order your Majesty to ban this matter!"

Ying Zheng and Fu Su looked at each other, and they both saw the smile in each other's eyes.

What the immortal master said was not wrong, the fish was already hooked even before the bait was put in.

They were not surprised that Li Si was in such a hurry.

As long as it is a scholar with a slightly higher IQ, who can't see the power behind this thing?

Especially these people from all schools of thought will definitely not miss this opportunity.

"Prime Minister, don't be in a hurry. This matter was specially ordered by the immortal master. It should be a good thing for Daqin."

Ying Zheng shook his head and rejected Li Si.

Li Si was a little annoyed and said, "Your Majesty! Confucianism is full of benevolence, righteousness and morality, and Taoism pursues governance through inaction. If people in the world learn this, Great Qin will be in danger!"

"Hey! The prime minister is serious!" Ying Zheng waved his hand, "Besides, the immortal master said, in this way, useful people can be found, so that I can recruit talented people!"

"Not only do I not plan to ban this matter, but I even plan to vigorously promote it!"

"Once the article is used, I will reward you heavily. If there is a suitable one, you can even let him enter the court as an official!"

No matter how much Li Si objected, Ying Zheng insisted on going his own way.

Let him ban it?Just kidding?
Before the "Contending among a hundred schools of thought" section appeared in the newspaper, Li Si, the legalist representative, couldn't sit still.

If it is really carried out, one can imagine how violent the reaction of those scholars in Daqin will be.

As an emperor, one of the most important things is to let the people under him check and balance each other.

Therefore, the harder the fight among the various schools of thought, the happier Ying Zheng would be.

Besides, the right to distribute the newspaper is in his own hands, and whoever's article he wants to use is up to him at a moment's notice.

In this way, as long as people from a hundred schools want to promote themselves and their theories, not to mention that they must please Ying Zheng, at least they will not dare to oppose him.

"Fu Su!" Ying Zheng turned his attention to his son, "This is the first issue of 'A Hundred Schools Controversy', have you selected the article?"

"Go back to Emperor Father!" Fu Su cupped his hands and said, "Dr. Chunyu has already written it. I have read it. It is really good. I will show Father Emperor tomorrow."

"No!" Li Si shouted: "The old thief Chunyu revived respect for etiquette, tried in vain to restore Daqin to the Zhou Dynasty etiquette system, and let him write articles in newspapers, isn't this playing into his hands?"

"Confucian scholars don't study law, but only focus on learning the backward etiquette system. In private, they talk about government affairs and confuse the people. I hope your majesty will think twice. Don't let Chun Yuyue's article be published in the newspaper!"

Li Si's words were almost exactly the same as what he said in history when he suggested that Ying Zheng burn books and bury scholars.

But now and then, with Jiang Sheng's help, Yingzheng is afraid of these Confucian scholars?
Can Confucian scholars feed the common people?cannot!

Can Confucian scholars make Great Qin victorious in every battle?cannot!

But these, he Yingzheng can!In other words, with the various fetishes bestowed by Jiang Sheng, it can be done!

It is self-evident whose side the world will stand that day.

Therefore, the current Lao Zhao has completely lost the thought of burning books and burying scholars.

If these scholars go to make trouble, nothing will happen.

Without the support of the common people, what is the use of these Confucian scholars?

Take a ten thousand step back and say, if something really happens, just use force to suppress it!
Looking at this issue with a different mindset, Lao Zhao also saw that Li Si, as a legalist, was deliberately suppressing Confucianism, and his words were exaggerated.

Politics is like this. There is no shadow of swords and swords, but it is more dangerous than the battlefield.

Once it happens, it will kill the opponent.

"The prime minister is too extreme." Fusu explained: "I am sure of the degree in the middle. And Dr. Chunyu's article is not so bad. Some fresh views, even the emperor will probably read it will be applauded."

"Besides, it still needs to be approved by the emperor in the end before it will be published in the newspaper. The prime minister doesn't have to be so urgent."

Li Si still wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Ying Zheng waving his hand.

"Li Si!" This time, Ying Zheng called his name directly, and the atmosphere in the hall was choked, "I know what you're thinking!"

"When Chunyu has finished the article in this issue, I'll let you come in the next issue!"

"Let me see how you refute Chunyu Yue's point of view."

"Let the world see whether Confucianism is better or Legalism is better!"

Li Si's heart was slightly awed. At first he thought that Ying Zheng was also dissatisfied with Confucianism, but now it seems that he is a bit neutral?
"Here!" He hastily responded without further entanglement.

Since Ying Zheng disagreed, he could only touch Chunyu Yue.

Anyway, he, Li Si, wouldn't be afraid of this mere rotten scholar.

Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction, and then said to Fu Su:
"In two days, the immortal food such as potatoes will be ripe. I plan to invite Xianyang Qianshou to come and watch. Please remember to record this in the newspaper!"

Fu Su agreed repeatedly, with a happy face, this is another good opportunity to promote the great Qin's national power!

After discussing domestic political affairs with the ministers, Ying Zheng announced his resignation.

After retreating, he took Fusu, Meng Yi and Li Si with him, and rushed out of Xianyang City.

There, Daqin's first expressway is under construction at this time.
