Qin Shi Mingyue Taoist Master Uncle

At the court meeting in Xianyang Palace, all the ministers in the palace fell to their knees.

Ying Zheng looked at this scene, and said in a deep voice, "What are you all trying to do, is it because you want to force the palace?"

An old man kneeling on the ground replied: "I dare not wait, the old man and all the ministers are kneeling here, but there is one thing I want to ask the king."

"Say." Ying Zheng spit out a word lightly.

"Also ask the king to withdraw from the Tiandao Academy!"

Many ministers kneeling below shouted in unison.

Ying Zheng looked calm, and said, "The Heavenly Dao Academy was jointly established by various schools of thought, not by a few people. If you object, feel free to go to various schools to trouble you. Gu will definitely not stop you."

"However, the widow has something to say beforehand. This in itself is not a matter of the court, and power cannot be used for personal gain. If you really want to get involved, you will be responsible for what happens. Gu will not ask any questions."

Those kneeling ministers had ugly faces when they heard these words. Their pressure here was to use the power of the country and the army to dismantle the Tiandao Academy, but they did not expect Ying Zheng to throw the pot out directly.

Without the support of the army, it would be an act of death for civil officials like them to confront those people in the Jianghu.

But at this moment, a middle-aged literati said: "Your Majesty is right, the Heavenly Dao School Palace was originally established by a hundred schools of thought, and has little to do with the court, so there is no need to worry about it."

Speaking of this, the person paused for a moment, and then continued: "The court and the Jianghu have always had nothing to do with each other, so those who enter the academy are considered half of the Jianghu, so the lower officials think that they should not be reused. "

Hearing this, many courtiers also echoed: "That's right, people from the Heavenly Dao Academy cannot enter the court as officials!"

"That's right, since ancient times, scholar-bureaucrats have ruled the world, and this rule cannot be changed!"

"Official titles should be handed down in the same line, so as to ensure the stability of the country..."

Hearing these words, Ying Zheng sneered in his heart.

How could he not know the thoughts of those ministers.The originally implemented Shiqing Shilu system allowed those official positions and titles to be occupied by fixed families all the time. Over time, these people gained more and more power and formed a big clan.

For example, the Mengxibai clan in the Qin State before, each had great influence and monopolized a large amount of resources.It wasn't until Shang Yang's reform, which weakened the privileges of nobles on a large scale, and established the system of conferring military merits, that the previous situation was broken, and Qin State developed rapidly, becoming the most powerful of the Seven Kingdoms.

However, although the reform made the country strong, it also seriously hindered the interests of the clan's elite, and almost caused turmoil. Shang Yang was executed to suppress this matter.

The current practice of selecting talents through the academy is not as radical as before, but its nature is similar. Once implemented, it will definitely hit the rights of nobles again.This is what those who rely on Shiqing Shilu to maintain their prosperity do not want to see.

But since Ying Zheng has chosen to do this, he will not back down.

After a cup of tea, he said in a firm tone: "Appointing people on merit is the way to strengthen a country. A decision has been made on this matter, so please stop talking about it!"

"Your Majesty, please think again. If this is the case, I am afraid that the court will be unstable and the country will be in turmoil!" Another minister kowtowed and said.

Ying Zheng snorted coldly: "Hmph, unstable? You want to keep your status and wealth alone, but if someone uses some small means to coerce, then don't blame the widow for being ruthless!"

"Warning you, if there is a problem in the food, salt, bronze and other markets in the future, then everyone kneeling here today will be confiscated, dismissed, and exiled into the army!"

-------------Chapter Dividing Line---------------

In the end, the court meeting broke up unhappy, and many ministers walked out of the hall with bitter faces.King Qin's meaning is very clear, no one is allowed to make plans for Tiandao Academy.

They were helpless about this kind of result. Although after Shang Yang's reform, they still ended up being divided into five horses, but because of that reform, the power of the Qin clan's clan was greatly weakened, so that it is difficult to be like before. That would have a deterrent effect on the king.

Moreover, the current Qin monarch is more domineering than the previous kings, and his wrists are also extremely tough. The queen mother was placed under house arrest in Yongcheng, and Lu Buwei, who had power over the government, also died in the prison for no reason.

After eliminating those forces, Yingzheng highly centralized power in several individuals, with the military and government at his fingertips, intervening in all matters large and small, and his power is overwhelming.In the current state of Qin, as long as it is what it wants to do, no one can oppose it.

So after learning about the Tiandao Academy, many courtiers chose to exert pressure in this relatively gentle way, hoping that the other party could compromise.However, not only did it not achieve the slightest result, but it was also warned, which also made some people who wanted to use their brains put away their thoughts.

After all, the king of his family is not very reasonable when it comes to some problems. If something happens, no matter whether they are involved or not, they probably won't be able to escape.

Although they love power and money, they love their own lives more. Moreover, although Yingzheng's support of Tiandao Academy will affect their own interests, there is no quality control to deprive them of their own power, which leaves some room for it.

Of course, in the final analysis, it was also because of the fear of King Qin's cruel methods.There is a line in Ying Zheng's heart. If you don't touch this line, it's no big deal. Once you touch that line, no matter who the other party is, if you say kill your whole family, you will kill your whole family. It is unambiguous at all!

After going to court, many officials and nobles also gathered together to discuss countermeasures.Now that the matter of the Tiandao Academy has become a foregone conclusion, the next step is to consider how to minimize the losses of these elites.

In the end, everyone came up with an answer, that is to send their juniors to the academy and let them graduate with excellent grades. It is best to suppress all those from poor families.This will not only not offend King Qin, but also make him greatly appreciate it.

The Tiandao Academy is not dedicated to serving ordinary people. The nobles can also study in it, and because those gentry and aristocrats have more money and resources, they can get a better development prospect in the Academy.

After careful consideration, some officials found that this is not necessarily a bad thing for them. Everyone hopes that their juniors can become talents.

After the discussion came to an end, everyone went back separately, some went to inform the juniors at home to get ready, and some went to Bei Chen, wanting to go through the back door and ask the latter to take care of their nephew.

In general, the emergence of the Tiandao Academy has made the court, the people, and the rivers and lakes become uneasy, and the wind and clouds of all parties are gradually converging.

Han Fei was walking on the streets of Xianyang City, holding a jug in his hand, pouring a sip of fine wine into his mouth from time to time.

But it didn't take long before the jug was empty, and after pouring out the last drop of wine, his face became a little depressed and he sighed.

Although Han Fei is extremely intelligent, he is not proficient in money-making methods. The daily expenses of Quicksand are basically managed by Zi Nu, so he, the Lord of Quicksand, is essentially a pauper. Agreed so.

As for the intelligence organization Wei Zhuang established in Qin State called "Sha Chi", because it has just developed, it also agrees that it lacks funds.Naturally, they cannot provide financial support to themselves.

If this continues, don't talk about ideals and aspirations, even your own survival estimate will be questionable.

Han Fei now clearly understands what it means to be a hero with a penny. In South Korea, he is the ninth prince of the royal family. He doesn't have to worry about making a living, and he has pocket money every month. It is also a worry-free life.

But now in the state of Qin, he lost his honorable status and had to start over as an ordinary person.

First of all, he has to solve the problems in front of him first. With his talent and learning, he can easily find a job that can make a living, but that is not what Han Fei wants. After all, this trip to Qin is not pure Come experience life.Even for a living, do something meaningful.

But at this moment, he found a group of people gathered in front of him, who seemed to be reading a notice, and Han Fei stepped forward to read it.

"The Heavenly Dao Academy has just been established. We are sincerely recruiting talents from all walks of life as teachers. Food and lodging are included, and the salary is generous. Those who are interested can come to the recruitment office of the Academy on the eighth day of this month to apply for the required positions. Those with outstanding abilities will be given priority. !"
