Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 65 Magic Potential

The main hall of Zhangtai Palace.

Qin Wangzheng turned his back to the officials, his eyes were cold, but he didn't say a word.

Yao Jia's face showed a trace of anxiety, and he hurriedly stepped out of the group of officials, with a bitter old face, and said slowly: "Your Majesty, Han Fei has no talent, he is just a Confucian scholar who sits and talks about Taoism!"

After finishing speaking, Yao Jia showed a fierce look on his face, his brows were furrowed tightly, and there was faint anger rising between his brows, and he said loudly: "Your Majesty, please kill him!"

Qin Wangzheng turned around suddenly, staring down at Yao Jia in the court hall, he was so startled that beads of sweat appeared on Yao Jia's forehead.

I saw Qin Wangzheng's face was dignified, his eyes were stern, and he said: "The lonely king invites you to enter Hangu Pass, why not?"

Please, Qin Wangzheng deliberately raised his voice, which frightened many courtiers into a cold sweat.

Qin Wangzheng once again scolded Yao Jia in a cold tone: "What is Han Fei's crime? The lonely king killed him indiscriminately. Could it be that he wanted to declare to the world that the lonely king is an unkind and unjust king?"

A heavy hat was placed on Yao Jia's head, which made Yao Jia's chest feel hot, and he knelt down on the ground in an instant: "I dare not!"

Nian Yao Jia once lobbied the state of Chu for the king of Qin, and he made great achievements, but the king of Qin did not convict him.

Qin Wangzheng smiled and said, "Sir, please get up."

Immediately, the smile on Qin Wangzheng's face disappeared, and he looked at Baiguan coldly and said, "Is there anyone else who wants to persuade the lonely king?"

It has to be said that Qin Wangzheng's method of killing chickens to scare monkeys is really useful.

The noisy court fell silent in an instant, while Qin Wangzheng gradually calmed down his complicated mood, and knelt down on the emperor's couch.

Han Fei was declared into the hall by Qin Wangzheng. Although all officials thought of Qin Wang and dared not scold Han Fei angrily, it was difficult to conceal their inner anger and hide their ferocious faces.

"Meet King Qin."

Han Fei saluted and cupped his hands.

There was an indelible smile on Qin Wangzheng's face, and he said lightly: "The lonely king loves talents, and the lonely king has admired the son's literary talent for a long time. Reading the son's magnificent essays is like drinking nectar."

"The summoning of you into Qin today is due to the situation, don't blame the lonely king."

"I've heard about the great name of the Duke for a long time. I wonder if you can assist the lonely king and do some unworldly deeds to benefit the people?"

The tone and attitude were quite gentle, which made Han Fei start to look at the young king again.

Han Fei smiled lightly, cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty is a great talent, and I have admired him for a long time, so I came to Qin to see the majesty of the King of Qin."

Li Si was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that after three years of absence, Han Fei would start to be courteous and learned the art of vertical and horizontal.

I saw Han Fei continued: "I'm not talented, I can only state a rough opinion."

After King Qin nodded in agreement, Han Fei took out three bamboo slips from his collar, and explained to the officials: "This is the result of my minister traveling around the world, looking at the ways of governing the world, taking the essence and discarding the dross. Personal opinion."

Qin Wangzheng looked at the bamboo slips in Han Fei's hands and became more and more curious.

A few days ago, the two bamboo slips brought by the little childish slave all the way could enlighten the lonely king. I don't know what kind of way to govern the country is the three bamboo slips selected by Han Fei this time?
Han Fei caught a glimpse of King Qin's shocked face, and his heart was like a river bursting its embankment, and he couldn't help getting excited.

But his joy was not enough, and Han Fei said solemnly: "Shang Jun's method can only enrich the country and strengthen the army, but its shortcomings are increasingly exposed, I'm afraid it is no longer suitable for the times?"

Finally, all the officials couldn't bear the anger and raised questions one after another.

"The law of Shang Jun is the law of enriching the country and strengthening the army. It makes the Qin State stronger and stronger. What are the disadvantages?"

"Young master, don't speak wild words. The benefits of the Shang monarch's law are obvious to all six generations of kings. What is not suitable for Qin?"

"The young master is from Korea, and he has only a half-knowledge of Qin, so he brazenly talks about the inappropriateness of Shang Jun's law?"

Yao Jia rolled his eyes at Han Fei contemptuously, and said with a sneer, "Han Fei, you are ignorant and ignorant, you are nothing more than a paper talker like Zhao Kuo!"

There was endless laughter in the hall, and they were all accusing Han Fei of just talking, playing lip service, dropping his book bags, and talking nonsense that had nothing to do with the community.

Qin Wangzheng hammered several cases, and the hall quickly fell silent.

Han Fei sneered, held up the bamboo slips and said, "Shang Jun's method is indeed inappropriate for the times. It has three disadvantages."

"First, beheading and establishing a noble. The Qin army is a division of tigers and wolves, but they are not benevolent. Even soldiers who have surrendered must be killed on the spot. The robes even killed each other for military industry."

"Secondly, the practice of co-existing, reporting on each other, and distance from each other makes the people live in fear of mutual suspicion,"

"Third, light crimes are punished with heavy penalties, so that enlightenment is underestimated, and the common people are exploited and oppressed."

"Its shortcomings are becoming increasingly apparent, and I am afraid that it cannot be used as a way for a king to govern the country."

"The minister gathers the power of magic and one body, and is the law of the king. Please read it."

After all, Han Fei placed the bamboo slips on top of his head, and the eunuch Ling Xi stepped forward to take the bamboo slips for King Qin to read.

After Qin Wangzheng unfolded the bamboo slips slowly, a sentence caught Qin Wangzheng's attention.

"Clear the rule of law and avoid personal favors. Husband's orders must be followed, and prohibitions must be stopped."

Looking at the dry goods between the lines, Qin Wangzheng felt a sense of pleasure from reading poetry and books.

Just reading the whole article, Qin Wangzheng couldn't put it down, which is enough to see how important the three-way bamboo slips presented by Han Fei are.

It combines Shang Yang's method, Shen Buhao's technique, and cautious approach into one.

Taking the monarchy as the axis of the legal system, taking the inspectors and ministers as the key to the law, and taking the law as the only criterion, he explained the correct concept of governing the country to Qin Wangzheng.

Seeing that King Qin was intoxicated by it, Han Fei took it upon himself to explain every sentence of the article to King Qin.

"Use the majesty of the king to make all officials submit, and order to prohibit. Officials can only be appointed and dismissed according to the basis, and the king holds the power of life and death, yes."

Han Fei was intoxicated by his impassioned speech. At the end of the speech, Han Fei raised his eyes and glanced at King Qin.

Seeing King Qin's silence, Han Fei breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Wangzheng also took a deep breath, his mind was full of every word of the bamboo slips, and Han Fei's solemn statement echoed in his ears, each sentence was memorable and worthy of Qin Wang's repeated reading.

I don't know if it's the recognition of Han Fei's philosophy of governing the country, or the touch of knowing that life is hard to find, or the respect for the great talent in governing the world, two lines of tears hang from the corners of his eyes.

In the main hall, all civil and military officials held their tempers and began to listen to Han Fei's impassioned speech. Although they were silent on the surface, they felt turbulent waves in their hearts.

The next moment, Qin Wangzheng said with great joy: "Young Master Fei is really talented and has outstanding strategies. From now on, Young Master Fei will be promoted to Keqing Ling."

All the officials were dumbfounded, and a trace of astonishment flashed in their eyes.

But Qin Wang tried his best to disregard the objections of the ministers and insisted on this. Han Fei couldn't refuse, so he could only bow his hands and thank him.

Han Fei successfully passed the first test of Qin Wangzheng. Qin Wangzheng was very envious of Han Fei, and even threatened to treat him with the courtesy of a prince.

but.

Yao Jia and Li Si were not happy at all.

Not only because of jealousy of Han Fei's talent, but also because of disgust for Han Fei's intention to unite the six Shandong countries to fight against Qin.

The two looked at each other, with an indescribable sinister hanging on the corners of their mouths.
