This first emperor is awesome
Page 32
Li Si's heart beat faster than expected, and his palms were covered with beads of sweat.
From His Majesty's flat voice, Li Si felt a heavy feeling that the mountain rain was about to come and the wind was overwhelming.
It seems that His Majesty is determined to reorganize the court and eliminate the bad atmosphere.
"Your Majesty is guilty, please punish me."
Who hasn't been to the Painting Boat Art Museum!
As a man, Li Si was certainly no exception.
Even if the power is at the top of the court and the status is respected, as a man, wouldn't it be a pity if he never even went to an art museum in his life?
More importantly, the tide is like this, if you don't go, you will only be isolated by everyone.
When a group of colleagues and friends are drinking and bragging, if they talk about this, if they can't participate in it, they will definitely be laughed at.
"You are the prime minister of the Great Qin Dynasty, a model for all military officials. You are under one person and above ten thousand, with power pouring over the government and the public, and your status is respected."
"Let me ask, does Prime Minister Li have no concubines?"
Ying Zheng stared at Li Sidao with cold eyes.
"Return to Your Majesty, I have a concubine."
Hearing His Majesty's stern reprimand, Li Si was frightened and began to speak a little awkwardly.
"Then why do you still linger in the land of smoke and willows?"
Ying Zheng scolded angrily.
"Your Majesty, I was confused for a moment!"
Li Si said sincerely with a look of remorse.
"Are you confused for a while?"
"From my point of view, you are a lowly person, and the root of evil in human nature has not been eradicated."
Ying Zheng mercilessly reprimanded him severely, almost pointing at Li Si's nose and swearing.
"Your Majesty is guilty, please punish me."
Li Si's back was soaked with sweat, and he said in fear.
"Li Er's Tao Te Ching has been copied ten times, and if there is one word missing, I will get lost and guard the Xianyang Pass."
Ying Zheng snorted coldly, became furious, and directly attacked Li Si.
"Sir, if you accept the punishment sincerely, you must follow His Majesty's instructions carefully."
Li Si quickly bowed, and then returned to his seat in disgrace, feeling his old face was a little hot.
Your Majesty is using himself as a killing stick to tell Man Chaowu about the will and determination of the First Emperor.
Anyone, don't take chances.
Although His Majesty didn't actually punish him, he could punish him by copying Li Er's Tao Te Ching. It was undoubtedly His Majesty telling him that being a minister requires not only talent, but also character and merit.
This is worse than punishing yourself.
Li Si told himself repeatedly in his heart that he must spend more time on character in the future, so as not to arouse His Majesty's dissatisfaction again.
"Feng Quji."
Ying Zheng had just reprimanded Prime Minister Li Si severely in front of Man Chaowu, and then began to name Doctor Yushi again.
"The minister is here."
"Your Majesty, I have never been to that place of smoked willows!"
Feng Quji stood up and bowed his hands, and then quickly explained that he was afraid that His Majesty would harm the innocent.
"What? Can I wrong you?"
Ying Zheng gave Feng Quji a hard look, and said coldly.
"Sir, I don't dare."
"Your Majesty is unparalleled, how could you wrong your subjects?"
Feng Quji hurriedly explained.
"Who told you, I'm asking you, have you ever been to the Land of Smoky Willows?"
Ying Zheng raised his brows, and the corners of his mouth curled up.
"Your Majesty, please give me your instruction."
Feng Quji respectfully bowed his hands together.
"Marrying a wife and taking a concubine is understandable, but it is necessary to make a big fanfare so that everyone knows about it and rumors are rampant?"
"As the imperial censor of the Great Qin Empire, you don't feel ashamed, but I feel ashamed."
"What's going on in your head?"
"Do you want me to announce to you the whole world, so that the whole world can celebrate together?"
Ying Zheng beat his head and face, blushing and ashamed of Feng Quji's reprimand.
Chapter 40
Yingzheng was spitting all over the place, almost up to the prime minister, down to Jiuqing, and he reprimanded all of them in disgrace.
As for under the Jiuqing, the officials of various ministries are not qualified enough, and there is no need to reprimand and rectify them by themselves.
"The way to be an official is virtue first. The ruler has no virtue, so how can he govern with virtue?"
"The way to be a human being is to keep kindness in your heart. If you don't have kind thoughts, how can you be loyal?"
"From now on, in the selection of Daqin officials, those who are talented but not virtuous will not be hired, and those who are excellent in character and learning will be selected to be officials."
"The sons of officials, those who are not graduates of the National Academy, will never be allowed to be officials."
"On October [-]th, the Academy of National Sciences officially teaches. Those who have passed the examinations of the upper, middle, and lower academies will be appointed as the magistrate of a county."
"The top three candidates in the imperial palace examination will be appointed a prefect of a county."
"Whoever wins the first grade will be given the honor of the five great officials, and the official will pay homage to the Shaoqing, and it will be announced to the world, so that the salty envoys will hear about it."
"All the officials of the empire, no matter how big or small the official position, go to the romantic places, get involved in cult gambling, all will be dismissed from office, and their family members will not be allowed to be official for three generations."
"Using justice to enrich private pockets, accepting bribes to corrupt laws and regulations, cultivating land to harm the people, forming cliques to endanger the country, all families are ransacked and family members are exiled to bitter cold lands, guarding the borders and defending the country."
"Great Qin will be rewarded for meritorious deeds, and punished for demerits, but I give you a piece of advice. Merit does not pay off, so don't make mistakes."
Ying Zheng eloquently spoke with great momentum, and after finishing speaking, Man Chaowu, who was trembling behind him, left in a huff.
"Retreat."
Zhao Zhong hastily shouted loudly.
"Congratulations, Your Majesty."
Man Chaowu shouted and bowed in unison.
After waiting for Zhao Zhong to leave, Wu Qunchen were as anxious as ants on a hot pot, and left one after another.
The most prosperous area of Xianyang City is the place closest to Xianyang Palace.
Wangfu
Wang Jian had just returned to the mansion, and he hadn't changed his court clothes yet, when the housekeeper ran in in a panic and said, "My lord, a large group of generals have come outside to ask for an audience."
"My old illness has relapsed, and my health is not good. I thank you behind closed doors."
"I don't see anyone, no matter what."
Under the service of several maidservants, Wang Jian changed from court clothes to casual clothes, and said slowly.
"Order."
The butler ran out immediately.
"Father, what happened?"
A middle-aged man with a pale face walked in slowly and said with a smile.
"sit."
Wang Jian looked at his son's pale face and said with great distress.
Supported by two maids, Wang Ben sat cross-legged with his father.
"Daqin's sky is about to change."
Just as Wang Jian was about to pick up the jade pot, his son quickly picked it up, poured himself a glass of fine wine, and then filled the wine bar in front of him.
"Your injury hasn't healed yet, drink less alcohol."
Sighing, Wang Jian said with concern.
"Father, don't worry, Ben'er has his own measure."
Wang Ben picked up the wine jue, put it under his nose and smelled it, his face was intoxicated, but he never took a sip.
"Today's court meeting, His Majesty has severely reprimanded all Man Chaowu, and strengthened the rectification of the court program to eliminate the bad atmosphere in the court and the public."
"The National Academy is also drawing up today, and the date is set after the beginning of the year."
Wang Jian said worriedly.
"That's a good thing!"
"Those people are indeed too much. Although the Six Kingdoms are destroyed, people's hearts are not yet stable, and it's not yet the time for singing and dancing to rise to the level and sensuality."
"It's not bad for His Majesty to open the National Academy. Not only can it make the children of the rich and powerful more knowledgeable, but it can also make friends with each other."
"Why are you so worried, Father?"
Wang Ben was a little puzzled, looked at his father in confusion and said.
"Good thing?"
"Ben'er, you are a mighty general who leads troops in battle, and you can compete with Meng Tian."
"But when it comes to court games, you are far inferior to the Meng brothers."
"That's why father asked you to resign and return home to recuperate. With the military achievements of our father and son, and the rewards given by His Majesty, the descendants of the Wang family will not be able to squander them for hundreds of years."
"Whoever fights for the world must first fight for his own people. If he wants to secure the world, he must first rectify himself."
"It's been almost three years since they ruled the world. Some people have already carried away their self-satisfaction and took credit for it. Some people hang around in Yanliu Wine Lane drunk and dreaming."
"Today, His Majesty just showed his sword in the court meeting, and it is still pending."
"If the officials of the government and the public don't know how to restrain themselves, the sword of the Son of Heaven will be cut down. At that time, there will be a bloody storm, and all the sins of the world will be washed away."
Wang Jian drank all the fine wine in the wine bar, and said meaningfully.
Wang Ben was a little astonished, picked up the jade pot again, poured wine for his father and said, "Father, has Your Majesty moved to kill?"
"Our Majesty!"
"His heart is like an abyss, his thoughts are like an ocean, he can't figure it out, he can't see through it!"
"However, although His Majesty didn't say it clearly today, he directly abolished the recommendation system. In the future!"
"If members of the Wang family want to become officials again, they can only stand out from the National Academy."
"Pass down the order, let the clansmen of the Fuping Wang Clan, in this special period, behave with their tails between their legs, and don't make any big troubles, or you will be lucky!"
Wang Jian smiled bitterly, shook his head and kept sighing.
"Father is saying that His Majesty has entrusted all the selection of officials to the National Academy?"
"The son inherits the father's business and never returns?"
Wang Ben was stunned, and he couldn't believe it.
"Not only that, His Majesty also clearly stipulated that in front of the Manchao Wu, he established a code of conduct for Daqin officials, and even clearly ordered the four iron laws to destroy the clan."
Wang Jian knew that His Majesty was very strong, but His Majesty's tough attitude today refreshed his perception.
"Father, is Your Majesty going to skin and bone the world's most powerful people?"
