[Qin] Qin Shi

Yingzheng's decree was like a bomb dropped on the sea, setting off a huge wave, which was difficult to calm down.

Not to mention those important ministers who entered the palace overnight, even the military generals who have already handed over the government to civil servants and retreated to the second line to hide their edge, also hurried to the gate of Qin Palace, just to see their majesty.

However, Ying Zheng had expected such a situation a long time ago. As for his confidants, as soon as they arrived at the gate of the Qin Palace, a servant welcomed them into the palace with a smile.

"Is your majesty determined?" Li Si sat down and looked at his own king with a frown. "If this move is spread across the world, it can certainly buy the hearts of the people, but for some scholars..." He said Once studied in Confucianism, he is very clear about the principles of Confucianism. "It is undoubtedly depriving them of their rights."

"I've already expected it," Ying Zheng said calmly, "but what I want is not those poor scholars who only know how to wield a pen." It's hard to hide my dislike and dissatisfaction with these people, "If a few articles can turn my world , that only shows that there are not enough people in the world who can read and write."

"It's not this question, Your Majesty." Although Meng Yi is a military strategist, he has also had contacts with Confucianism. "Now the new policy of the Great Qin, if the remnants of the Six Kingdoms use this name to make a move, I am afraid that a large number of forces will tend to They are all afraid that they will be disadvantageous to Daqin."

"Then kill." Wang Jian raised his eyes. The arrogance of a general in his body has not diminished because of the pampering he has enjoyed in the past few years. "If you don't give up, kill one, if you don't give up, kill ten, if a hundred people don't give up, send someone to crush them."

In the early years, he also wandered away from various countries, and finally chose Yingzheng: "They are just scholars who only know how to write. As long as they win over the people, those scholars will not be successful. Besides, you really think those poor people What do you know about 'righteousness'? Whoever gives them food, they will obey."

Wang Jian, who was born as a knight-errant, knows this better than anyone else: "Why is it that outside the Great Qin Dynasty, the status of scholars is higher than that of warriors? Isn't it because those who know a little bit of kung fu and brute force can be called 'warriors'?" , and do scholars really need to be able to read and write?"

"Yi didn't mean to offend," Meng Yi shook his head. "The reason why the six countries looked down on our great Qin in the past was because the ancestors of the Qin State were born as grooms and could not understand writing. Your Majesty now wants to spread writing and ink throughout the world, so that all farmers The child can also learn to read and write, which undoubtedly touched the...nobility of those scholars."

He twitched the corners of his mouth and gave a sarcastic compliment: "Yi is worried that if he acts like this, he will push some talented people out of the Great Qin Dynasty. And making such a decision at this time will spread a message of selfishness to others." Daqin's wrong signal of 'emphasizing literature over military affairs' has misled me in Daqin's state affairs."

"Lieutenant Meng Guo is too worried about this." Wei Liao shook his head, "There are Xiongnu and Qiang people in the northwest of the Great Qin, and small countries such as Baiyue in the south. As long as our Great Qin's policy of judging titles based on military merit remains unchanged, no one will be light on martial arts. " As he spoke, his eyes fell on Bai Shu who had been silent all this time, "And there is Lord Yanbei here."

Hearing his name, Bai Shu looked up at Wei Liao.

"Your Majesty's strategy must have originated from the land of Yanbei." Gan Luo also echoed, "I have heard that Yanbei and Zhao Nai are two strategies, almost independent of Zhao State," he used questioning words, But the tone was affirmative, "It must have something to do with this policy."

Sitting at the top, Ying Zheng laughed happily when he heard someone finally pointed the finger at Bai Shu.He didn't say anything to stop them, they were all old colleagues, and his acquiescing attitude made more people turn their heads to Bai Shu who had been doing mural paintings before.

Regarding this, Bai Shu pulled his hair, not really wanting to get into the water: "Abandoning the remnants of the six countries, why did the people of the six countries turn against Qin in the past? Is it because of Qin's violence? Is it because of Qin's too strict laws? Or is it because of Qin? Are outsiders unworthy of ruling them? Neither."

"There are many nomadic people from the grasslands in Yanbei. At first, they had to submit to the management and rule of Yanbei because they were afraid of the cavalry in Yanbei. But later, they were given a place to live in, food and houses, Let them not have to worry about the severe cold and snowfall in winter. In this way, in less than ten years, whether they realize it or not, they are already a part of Yanbei."

"Teach them the characters of the Central Plains, teach them how to cultivate the Central Plains, learn the customs of the Central Plains, and let them live a better life than before. The people are such practical people." Straightened their backs slightly, "Beyond this, it is not No one misses their old life in the grasslands, but those people Shu always dealt with it directly."

"The people's worries are nothing more than food, clothing, housing and transportation. They are illiterate, so your majesty unified the weights and measures before, the world's carriages and horses are on the same track, and the writing of the six countries is returned to the Great Qin Xiaozhuan, which has little impact on the people. But now he wants to teach the world. The most important thing is to engrave 'Qin' in their blood."

"Ten years, no, five years is enough. If they want to restore, they must erase the word Qin in the minds of the people and eliminate the laws of Qin in their lives. If the Great Qin helps the poor with land, they will take away the poor If Daqin educates the children of all poor families, they will need to deprive these children of the right to read and write."

The corners of his lips curled up: "So, who else will follow them against Daqin?"

People, whether they realize it or not, are always the most practical creatures.Whoever can make them live happily and conveniently, they will obey whoever they want: "If they can live a good life, who will live with their head on the waistband of their trousers?"

Following Bai Shu's words, if everyone in the world could study, the status of a scholar would not need to be the same as before.Although it will cut off the livelihood of some people, Yu Daqin can provide more talents.

Mao Jiao frowned. Although he also had other worries, he had to admit that what Bai Shu said was very correct: "This is a century-old plan. In the long run, it is certainly a good strategy for our Great Qin, but at the beginning of the announcement of the world, I am afraid it will cause a wave. turmoil."

"Let them make trouble," Bai Shu glanced at Ying Zheng, and after confirming that the other party had no intention of speaking, he continued following his own train of thought, "but what name can they make a fuss about? It's a joint letter to resist this policy." ? Or declare that he will not grant his knowledge to others?"

Saying this, the smile on Bai Shu's face became worse and worse: "What's the use of their resistance? As long as the reward is paid enough, someone will always want this job. They just created conditions for the people of Qin by not moving. Why not take this opportunity to screen out some of the guys who are not loyal to me, Great Qin."

"As for not being willing to share your knowledge, isn't this a better opportunity to let the people know whether it is Qin Hao or those guys who only talk about empty truths?" This can be said to be a wave of scheming , "Furthermore, the school is only for children aged six to twelve. This time period is the most important time for children to establish three views... ideology. As long as the teachers in the school are well controlled, add something Ideological education is a matter of convenience."

Ideological education, you know what it is when you listen to it.

Gan Luo nodded. He was about the same age as Bai Shu, and he was young and ambitious: "This is indeed the best way to win people's hearts. If there are more literate people in the world, there will be fewer people who can be protected. Quite a lot." His mind was spinning quickly, "Let them realize the goodness of Great Qin, and naturally they won't follow the Six Kingdoms against Qin."

"Besides, a lunch is provided to those children who are studying. This free meal will cause many children from poor families to go to school. As long as we control the children, when they grow up It is the new wave of ministers of my Great Qin, and the Six Kingdoms will really have nothing to fear at that time."

"Then why do you want to burn books?" Mao Jiao interjected, "If it is to shape our image of Daqin, burning books in front of the people is not a good idea."

"Only burn those nonsense books," Ying Zheng gave the answer to this point, "I don't speak strange and confusing words, those books about gods, gods, gods, gods, and gods will disturb people's hearts if they are kept." He sneered, "If you do good deeds during your lifetime, you will be able to have a good pregnancy after death? This kind of nonsense is really funny."

Li Si looked at Bai Shu complicatedly, and swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

However, Ying Zheng seemed to be able to read people's hearts. He didn't look at Li Si, but his eyes fell in the air: "I know these words are very useful for the rule of Great Qin, but my world doesn't need these illusory things to come. Stable. I can unify, relying on all of you here, my soldiers who are leading the charge of the Great Qin, not the words of ghosts and ghosts reborn in the afterlife."

"I never believe that there are gods and Buddhas in this world, and my people don't need to believe it either." He stood up, "If there were gods and Buddhas in this world, they would have never acted when the world was in constant war, and now the world is peaceful and there is no need to help If you really blame me, let them blame me."

The king put his hands behind his back: "I have made up my mind about the burning of books, and I will leave it to Lord Yanbei to handle it."

"Yes!" Bai Shu got up, contrary to the previous laziness, saluted Ying Zheng and said yes.

Seeing Bai Shu's straightforward and decisive appearance, if he didn't realize that this was a drama that this pair of princes and ministers had already thought up, then it would be a shame to these smart people in the government and the opposition.

But if it is stopped?

Firstly, they were not the ones who stopped this hard work, and secondly, burning books was not harmful to them, and speaking out to stop them was just for Daqin's consideration from Qinchen's point of view.Now that His Majesty has made up his mind, the courtiers have nothing to advise except to mobilize to clear the tail for the king.

"What if someone blocks it?" Wei Liao interjected.

"Then kill," said the fate of a group of people lightly, "My Daqin, it's not up to outsiders to point fingers."

"Then the historian?" Li Si thought for a while, "Do you want them to stop writing?"

"It's not necessary, as long as they write non-fiction, let them do it." Ying Zheng didn't bother to deal with those scholars who were working on their pens every day, "Anyway, it's garbage that I will throw in the corner of the study, just for fun. That’s right. It’s those idiots who think that after reading their books, they have the right to comment on the merits and demerits of their predecessors.”

Ying Zheng sneered: "Even if they scold me as an eternal tyrant in the book, besides making people find that they can only point the world through the pen, they can really turn me into a tyrant."

The author has something to say:

Do you have any other ancient stalks you want to see?

If not, prepare to enter the southern tour

Oh, there is also a meteorite that fell from the sky that I didn't write
