Qin Dynasty Novelist

Choices and trade-offs have always been decisions that everyone has to make. In Xiaoshengxian Village, Fu Nian was chosen as the inheritor of Confucianism, while Han Fei was burdened by his family and country. He was alone. Only in Qin State, will get what you want.

Li Si has always understood his own strengths, and Li Si also understands his shortcomings even more. Therefore, he is confident that he can do something in Qin, and when he ascends to the throne, what about those people of noble blood in the six kingdoms of Shandong?

"Your Majesty has not held a court meeting for the past three days, and has been reading "Han Feizi"?"

After returning from Xinzheng, Zhou Qing handed over the mahogany box that Zi Nu gave him to Qin Wangzheng. Among the Xia, the only one who can really value this book is Qin Wangzheng. Inside the mahogany box are dozens of books engraved by Han Fei himself. A collection of books, containing the essence of a body.

Originally, when the members of the Zheng family were sent back, Qin Wangzheng notified the court that three days later, a court meeting would be held to reorganize the new government order, open a new dynasty and a new atmosphere, and lay the foundation for the world.

However, I never thought that from that day onwards, for three days in a row, and now Zhao Gao, the young mansion order, entered Xuanqing Palace to invite him to Xingle Palace, not only the big court meeting was gone, but also the small court meeting for these three days was also gone.

All affairs were handled by civil and military officials. Although outsiders did not know what really happened, Zhou Qing deduced a little bit, recalling the scene of handing over the mahogany box to Qin Wangzheng that day, and seemed to understand something.

The dozens of volumes of books in the mahogany box can be read at Qin Wangzheng's reading speed in an hour or two at most, but now three days have passed, and there is still no sign of going out of Xingle Palace.

This situation is very similar to how Lord Shang first entered Qin State a hundred years ago, and talked with Duke Xiao for three days and three nights. There was no court meeting, and they got together in one room, and the two joined hands to build a brand new Qin State.

"Yes."

"In the side hall, the king has read the book "Han Feizi" sent by the master dozens of times. In the past three days, he only had two meals. Just now, the king read it again and drank a little sake. Master Gao Xiangzhao."

Zhao Gao, the Shaofu Commander, was behind him. Hearing Zhou Qing's words, he quickly nodded in response. His clear words came out. His Majesty has always appreciated Han Fei's talent. Now it seems that he still underestimated Han Fei's position in his heart.

However, that Han Fei is really ignorant, the king has already condescended to go to Xinzheng with the gift of a national scholar, and took great risks to invite him, but he is arrogant in his talents, in order to respond to the king's words, I really don't know what kind of person it is people.

"Sweeping away the internal troubles of Changxinhou and Wenxinhou, and building Jingshui canals, what your Majesty needs most now is this book."

At this moment, the state of Qin has completely got rid of the signs of weakness in the past [-] years since King Zhaoxiang, and even got rid of the stable policies of King Xiaowen and King Zhuangxiang since the two generations. Two years of sweeping clean.

Although the expulsion order has not been issued, but as far as I know, Luo Wang is much stricter in monitoring Shandong scholars in Qin.

This is the way of kings, and this is also the way of emperors!

From Xuanqing Palace to the side hall of Xingle Palace, the distance is not long. The palace slaves in front of the door whispered that Zhou Qing stepped in. It was not long before entering, the sky was still bright, and so was the side hall. However, Zhao Gao, the Shaofu Commander, did not follow.

In the open and bright side hall, Qin Wangzheng was sitting cross-legged by himself behind a table. There was wine on one side of the table, and a scroll beside him was smooth because it had been read many times. of the letter.

Zhou Qing was very familiar with those slips of letters. When he returned from Xinzheng, he had already read these slips on the way. Naturally, he clearly understood what they said and what they meant, and also understood their significance to the representatives of Qin Wangzheng.

"Xuan Qing met the master!"

He bowed his hands and smiled slightly. After three days, Qin Wangzheng seemed exhausted, but his red and phoenix eyes kept flickering. He was holding a wine cup in one hand and a letter in the other, as if intoxicated. .

"Master is here, sit down!"

Hearing a sudden voice in the side hall, Qin Wangzheng was taken aback for a moment, then shifted his gaze from the bamboo slips in his hand to Zhou Qing, couldn't help but smile in the same way, put down the wine cup in his hand, and pointed to a note on the opposite side.

Afterwards, Qin Wangzheng tidied up his clothes a little, carefully placed the bamboo slips in his hand on the table, away from the drinks, took a long breath of relief, and brought back the spirit immersed in the slips.

"The master entered Xinzheng this time, although he failed to invite Han Fei again, Han Fei did give him a book, with a detached heart. At first, I thought that Han Fei was burdened by his family and country, and he was unwilling to help Qin. Now that I think about it, it is absurd. "

"Han Fei's talent is unrivaled, and Han Fei's people are also unparalleled. His purpose of staying in Xinzheng is not only for his family and country, but also for the common expectations of all legalists."

"That is to personally change a country in order to verify its laws. As a master of legalism, Han Fei has no such intentions. Although the road is difficult, Han Fei is still moving forward!"

I have read the book "Han Feizi" before, but I have never really read all the slips in one go. What's more, this is a bamboo slip carved by Han Fei himself, which is very meaningful.

Qin Wangzheng put one hand on the slip of paper that he had just put down on the case again, still a little bit reluctant, his words really said deep in his heart, it was really the essence of Legalism.

Recalling the scene of entering Xinzheng a few years ago, he asked if it would like to create a world of ninety-nine with him. Han Fei responded that he was the world of South Korea or the world of Qin.

He thought that Han Han was burdened by his family and country, and he didn't want to join the Qin Dynasty, but from what he said in his letter today, it was not the case. Naturally, he could clearly see the general trend of the Xia Dynasty from his perspective.

Even so, he still insists on his own opinion. Legalism is not empty talk and rhetoric, but a theory that must be verified. This is probably another reason why he left Korea.

"Your Majesty is reading the book "Lonely Wrath"?"

Zhou Qing slowly knelt down behind the table on the other side. On top of the table, there was also a jug of fine wine. The self-serving dumper, hearing Qin Wangzheng's exclamation, seemed to think of something.

The only thing that can confirm King Qin's heart at this moment is this book slip, which is Han Fei's new work in the past two years. It seems that it has not been circulated, and it is the first time I have seen it. Mottled with blood and tears.

"That's right. Three days ago, I read the book "Solitary Wrath" for the first time, and my whole body was covered in cold sweat. From the book "Solitary Wrath", I seem to understand why Shang Jun would rather the execution ground was filled with bones and blood a hundred years ago. Everywhere, not far away from Qin, go away in seclusion!"

"I also seem to understand why Wu Qi fell beside King Chu Mourning with his body full of hidden arrows, why Shen Buhui, who failed in the reform a hundred years ago, killed himself on the city wall, why Su Qin, a disciple of Guigu, was assassinated, why Zhao Wuling The king will have a catastrophe in the sand dunes!"

"The words of "Lonely Anger" are actually a book of pleas for all reformers in the Spring and Autumn Period. Before the reform, they were very clear about the future path, but even so, they are still willing to implement the reform."

Still couldn't help but grabbed the bamboo slips in his hand again, while continuing to look at the small characters on the bamboo slips, while slowly responding to Zhou Qing, the current state of Qin can only speak these words to the master.

At the end of the sentence, Qin Wangzheng couldn't help but sigh again. Among the many people he talked about before, the sage he respected the most was Lord Shang. Without Lord Shang, there would be no Qin State today.

Xiao Gong and Shang Jun joined hands to strengthen Qin, talked freely with each other, and had a deep affection. The public is like a green mountain, and I am like a pine and cypress.

Without this point, the Qin Law cannot be implemented at all!

"There is a saying in "Solitary Anger": capital must be invincible, but power does not exist at the same time. How can a man of magic be safe? Those who can be accused of crimes and framed should be punished by public law! Those who cannot be accused of crimes should be impoverished with private swords !"

"That's why, those who understand the law and rebel against the Lord will not be killed by officials, but will die by private swords! Han Fei said that there are five invincibles in the reform: first, the official rank is low; Four, lack of old friends, five, estrangement from the king and his cronies."

"That's why Shangjun's reform was successful. At the beginning of the reform, he led the right concubine, Xiaogong, and Ying Qin's clan to help him, and with the help of Jing Jian, Che Ying, and people from the six kingdoms of Shandong who entered Qin, he overwhelmed Gan Long and Du Zhi. The old gentry, in just twenty years, the reform of the Qin State has been successful, the Hexi Plateau has been recovered, and the power of the country has begun to emerge."

"It's a pity.... Even so, even though Lord Shang is dead, his law is carried out. Since the Warring States Period, only Lord Shang has achieved success among Legalists!"

For Shangjun, not only the great kings of the Qin Dynasty respected him, but also the ruling and opposition parties admired him a lot. In the Qin Kingdom at that time, it was such courage to implement reforms.

Just like what Han Fei said, there are five invincible reforms, and the great success of Shang Yang's reform is his own choice, and it is also the choice of Qin State. Under the rank of military merit, the common people can also be named marquis, and under the plowing and fighting, farmers can also have the title.
