Longyang loves Qin

Ying Zheng asked with an interested expression, "What's so good about it?"

Ye Yu replied, "Isn't it a good thing that so many talents have come to the king's country?"

Ying Zheng understood what he meant, but still asked, "This man is only going after Xiang Lu."

"No," Ye Yu shook his head and said, smiling unabated: "More people should come here for this work." He stretched out his hand and pointed to the stack of papers in front of Ying Zheng.

These are really two different meanings, it's just... "How should the widow use these people for the widow?"

Ye Yu blinked his eyes, and said seriously: "Mr. Lu is dedicated to his duties and will definitely recommend a lot of talents for the king." But he didn't lie at all. Lu Buwei's job is to recommend talents. As for whether he will...

Ying Zheng also showed some understanding, but frowned again, "Won't this encourage his power? Besides, how will the widow use those people?"

Ye Yu didn't answer right away, but asked instead: "How does the king want to deal with Prime Minister Lu?"

Ying Zheng was stopped by this sudden question.If Lu Buwei rebelled like Chun Shenjun, there is only one result for how to deal with him.But the current Lu Buwei did not rebel, but his ambition was too great, and the ordinary position of Xiangbang could not satisfy him at all. He is indeed working hard to strengthen Qin.

Seeing that Ying Zheng didn't reply for a long time, Ye Yu said, "I heard that if you pluck out a few feathers from a bird, it can still fly, but if you pluck out all the feathers from a bird, even if its wings are intact, it will still fly." Can't fly. Aren't those talented people just like Lu Xiang's feathers?"

In view of Lu Buwei's achievements for the state of Qin, Yingzheng can't just execute him casually, he can only abolish his power so that he can't make any troubles again, just like Lord Xinling.

Ying Zheng cleared his mind and understood, he nodded and waited for Ye Yu's next words.

"If it's a bird that can't fly, so what if it's famous? Isn't it you and Qin who get the benefits?"

Ye Yu paused, and then talked about the most important part, "There are only three kinds of followers of Prime Minister Lu. Among them, those who follow because of fame and fortune don't need the king to bother. Those who are loyal to Prime Minister Lu are useless even if the king takes care, but there are only a small number of such people. The rest are the ones that the king needs to worry about, which is what I call talented people."

"Lu Xiang's "Lv Lan" brings together the wisdom of a hundred schools of thought, and this is its most attractive part. Then why doesn't your majesty do the same?"

Ye Yu pursed his lips and said with a smile: "Using the territory of Qin as the paper, using the theories of various schools as the ink, and using the students of hundreds of schools as the brush, to write the most magnificent works in the world. This is something only you can do." It was the end of the Warring States period, and the hundred schools of thought were gradually declining, but Ye Yu still wanted to revive the contending among the hundred schools of thought.

Seeing Ying Zheng's thoughtfulness, Ye Yu continued, "You don't need to pluck out those feathers one by one, you just need to blow a strong wind, and those feathers will come naturally." It's just a pity that this era is not suitable for imperial examinations system.

"The theories of each school can stand up to now, there must be their reasons. I know that you, the king, admire the Shang Jun and like the Legalists, so you will not use the "Lu Lan", which is mainly Taoist, as evidence for governing the country , but I want to know, what kind of Legalism does the king want to use?"

Ying Zheng said without thinking, "It's just like Mr. Fei said."

"I have the honor to read the book written by Han Keqing. Although I don't dare to speak falsely, I know that if the king wants to attack other countries with a strong army, you need a military strategist; if you want to reduce the pain In suffering, you still need doctors; if you want to have abundant food, deal with drought, hunger and natural disasters, and understand people’s thoughts, you also need farmers; if you want to educate the people, you also need Confucianism; There are walls that are stronger than concrete, and you still need the Mohist..."

Finally, Ye Yu said in a deep voice: "I think that you also need a copy of "Lu Lan" of your own, whether it is tangible or intangible. Now, the people you need are coming to Qin. In Lu Xiangfu, they must be more willing to carry forward their own abilities and their own theories. I think this is also the purpose of their coming to Qin.

Since they came, they probably had a heart for Qin, and even if they didn't, they would most likely stay when they saw the prosperity of each family.As long as you are willing to use it, the young and promising monarch and the aging Xiangbang, why worry about them becoming Lu Xiang's power? "

"Looking at it this way, isn't it a good thing?" Ye Yu smiled.

Ying Zheng didn't reply right away. At this time, he was not fully in charge of the government, and his policy had not yet been set in detail. Therefore, Ye Yu's remarks were not difficult for him to accept.

After digesting what Ye Yu said, Ying Zheng seemed to have changed somewhat, but when Ye Yu took a closer look, nothing seemed to have changed.

"I understand." Ying Zheng turned his head slightly to Zhao Gao and said, "Go to Xuan Ganqing."

Except for themselves, no one knew what the three of them were talking about, but at the subsequent court meeting, Ying Zheng suddenly said to Lu Buwei: "I heard that many children from hundreds of families have gone to Qin in the name of Mu Zhongfu." .”

It is not that Lu Buwei does not know Ying Zheng's fear of Lu Buwei, but at this time he was puzzled when Ying Zheng mentioned this matter, and even his complacent demeanor today restrained a bit, "What the king said was too much. Exaggerated."

However, combined with the recent scene of Lu Buwei, to others, his modest words are also full of pride and showing off.

Ying Zheng was not affected at all, he even said that Lu Buwei was too modest, and when Lu Buwei couldn't figure out what he wanted to do, Ying Zheng finally got to the point.

"The widow would like to trouble Father Zhong with one thing."

Lu Buwei said again and again: "Don't dare to do it, don't dare to do it, your majesty said it bluntly."

"No one can do this except Father Zhong."

Lu Buwei looked puzzled, "Please tell me, Your Majesty."

"Father Zhong's book has inspired me a lot. I feel that the theory of a hundred schools of thought is very useful to the state of Qin, and I intend to use those who can." Ying Zheng said loudly: "So I decided that Father Zhong will be in charge of the children of a hundred schools of thought, and then It is up to the widow to decide after seeing and hearing the theories and capabilities of each school one by one."

Lu Buwei frowned. One of his many purposes in writing "Lu Shi Chun Qiu" was to use "Lu Shi Chun Qiu" as the policy of Qin, but Ying Zheng obviously rejected him.

Could it be that he didn't see it?

Compared with Lu Buwei's frowning, some officials in the court are happy, because they are people from some schools of thought who came to Qin to take up positions in Qin to promote their theories, but they are struggling in Qin. Their official career is good, but their original purpose is difficult achieved.

But it's different now, Ying Zheng gave them a clear way, they looked at Lu Buwei with burning eyes, waiting for his response.

This is the reason why Ying Zheng could discuss it with Lu Buwei first, but he didn't do so, because this is an opportunity not to be missed for each family. If Lu Buwei objects, the pile of sand will disperse as soon as he gathers. up.

Lu Buwei also knew that he had been tricked, so he could only agree, but he thought about it, if the Taoists persuaded Ying Zheng, his "Lushi Chunqiu" would still shine.

He doesn't know whether Taoism can do it, he only knows that there are many capable people under his sect, and those people can write this book, and their eloquence and ability are not bad.

Thinking of this, Lu Buwei relaxed a lot and complied, "I will definitely live up to the king's expectations."

"Okay." Yingzheng said with satisfaction: "It's just that there are a lot of people in each family. I'm afraid Lu Xiang will have to work hard alone. Lao Ganqing assisted."

"The minister obeys the order." Gan Luo, a 16-year-old Pianpian boy, stepped forward and responded.

It's just a mere deputy, and Lu Buwei doesn't care about it. What he's thinking about now is how to persuade Ying Zheng, and maybe he can use this to make another name for himself.

At this time, Feng Chang stood up and reported the progress of the preparations for the crowning ceremony of Yingzheng.

After hearing this, Lu Buwei also stepped forward and said: "Now the king is going to welcome children from hundreds of families. I think it's better to wait for the king to make a decision and then perform the crowning ceremony when he is ready?" His eyes swept over everyone.

After a while, someone stood up and said: "Nowadays there are many people in the city, and they may endanger the safety of the king."

Before the second person could stand up and say something, Ying Zheng replied, "Father Zhong's words are reasonable, but I plan to meet with you sons after I reach the crown."

Very good, this sentence sent many ministers back.

Ying Zheng also said: "The widow wants to receive the ceremony at the Qinian Palace after the spring. Yongcheng should be much more stable. In this season, you will not bother me to go to Qin in the cold winter. Fengchang Temple will use this to make another divination."

Once the hammer is set, Lu Buwei below can't say anything more. Who told Ying Zheng to connect the two things first.

The King of Qin, who was about to be in charge of the government, wanted to hear a lot of theories from a hundred schools of thought, and the news spread that he would use the best of them. Those who had not been able to carry forward the theories in Qin State, or those who were competitive and ambitious seized this opportunity and came to Qin State.

Lu Buwei, who had specially designated a place for hundreds of families to settle in, found out that his number of diners had shrunk suddenly. Many people who helped him write "Lu Shi Chunqiu" lived in, and carefully prepared for their respective schools. He will also respond to his request to be a lobbyist for Taoism.

Not only that, but many people who he heard originally planned to join his sect also moved in.

Suddenly realizing that he had been cheated in more than one place, Lu Buwei had to grit his teeth secretly, but after hearing what a few disciples around him said, he suddenly understood.

That's right, since he is the host, the people here will be his followers sooner or later, even if they are not, they have accepted his favor, and maybe they will be used by him in the future.

Thinking like this, Lu Buwei slipped around among hundreds of families, and returned home happily after receiving a lot of respect.

The author has something to say: ① At this time, there was no miscellaneous theory, and Lu Buwei was considered a Taoist.
