Qin Wang Zheng couldn't help but laugh. Zhao Gao was also a little embarrassed. When a son came to visit his father, he should bow three times and kowtow six times. What Jiang Lu learned was the etiquette of a minister greeting the King of Qin, and it was neither fish nor water.
Zhao Gao was the quick-witted one. He turned around and knelt down."Reporting to the King of Qin, this servant has neglected my duty. I forgot that Young Master Jiang Lu once lost his memory and did not understand the etiquette of the palace.”
"I'm afraid you're afraid he'll beat you up, so you don't dare to teach him!" Qin Wangzheng smiled.。
Zhao Gao smiled awkwardly and replied," I don't know why, but I feel like I'm facing a fierce tiger when facing Young Master Jiang Lu. I don't dare to look at him."”
This flattery made Qin Wang feel good. He faced Jiang Lu and said,""This child doesn't need to be so polite."
Meng Ling looked at Zhao Gao in confusion.""Father, what did I do wrong?”An eight-year-old body with a twenty-two-year-old head. Meng Ling dared to say that she had a photographic memory. Li Si had also been like this when he greeted her.
Qin Wang Zheng laughed." Your etiquette is wrong. You should have kowtowed when you met me. What you did just now was the Confucian etiquette, which is also the etiquette for a minister to greet Lone Vile."”
"I, f * ck, made a big joke the first time I met the King of Qin.”Meng Ling's face turned red as she glared at Zhao Gao angrily.""You damned transvestite, why didn't you warn me?”
Qin Wang shook his head and smiled." Zhao Gao is like a mouse seeing a cat. It's good enough that he didn't turn around and run away."”He turned to look at Zhao Gao." Jiang Lu is not someone you can teach. I forgive you this time. Get up!"。”
That was true. Zhao Gao crawled up and looked at Jiang Lu in fear. Whoever met such a student would be extremely unlucky. He would fight without saying a word. His strength was extremely great, like a ferocious tiger. Moreover, if he were to beat him up, there would be no place to complain. He could not possibly come to the Qin Emperor and complain. Your son beat me up. Do as you see fit. I'm afraid your head will fall off first.
Qin Wang Zheng picked up Li Si's letter and said,""Jiang Lu doesn't even know a single word and is a loss of the royal family's dignity. What kind of master should I find for you?。”
Young Master Fu Su's master was one of the three heroes of the scholarly faction, the great scholar Fu Nian. Could it be that this cheapskate father had also found a great scholar to be his master?。
Meng Ling didn't want to be taught by a sour scholar. She shook her head and said,""Your child only needs to be able to read. There is no need to read any scholarly articles.”
"Oh, why is that?" Qin Wangzheng was very interested. It was rare to see a weirdo who only wanted to read and did not want to study.
"Father, Confucianism advocates etiquette and wants to restore the ancient style of the Great Zhou. What it teaches to disciples is only etiquette and music, benevolence and faith. Although the so-called six arts include riding and archery, they pay more attention to the etiquette of war and do not attack innocent countries. The other four subjects focused on the doctrine of the mean, which was not suitable for Great Qin's current situation. If all the nobles of Great Qin learned the Confucian doctrine of the mean, it would be impossible for Father to unify the seven kingdoms.”Meng Ling said as she pondered.
"What do you mean?" Qin Wang Zheng said anxiously.
"Ever since the previous king appointed Wei Yang to carry out the reform, the six countries have been afraid of Great Qin's military power, not etiquette. In the future, when conquering the world, it would definitely be using force to conquer, not etiquette.”For thousands of years, ever since the rise of Confucianism, China had always abided by the doctrine of the mean and allowed foreign countries to bully them. This had something to do with the deep-rooted Confucian culture. Genghis Khan had never read Confucian books, but he could conquer the world.
The way of war that Meng Ling learned in the military academy had completely abandoned the etiquette culture of Confucianism. The military camp was a wolf's nature.
Meng Ling continued," Confucius 'home country was Lu. Confucian culture flourished, but does Lu still exist? The seven war-torn countries were all about hegemony and martial arts. Any country with a strong martial arts culture could become a powerful country.
If the Confucian culture was allowed to flourish in Qin, the nobles would pay attention to etiquette and be greedy for ritual and music. They would become modest gentlemen, and the country would no longer have any generals.”
"Jiang Lu is right." Qin Wangzheng seemed to have found a soulmate. In the imperial court, everyone was ashamed of the fact that Qin was once a barbarian. A kind of court discussion that became a country of etiquette prevailed in Qin. After Jiang Lu's analysis, Qin Wangzheng was also scared out of his wits. The generals of Qin were all from the nobility. If Confucian culture was allowed to prevail in Qin, the consequences would be unimaginable.
Meng Ling smiled." If a sheep is allowed to lead a group of tigers, the tigers will quickly become weak and easily bullied. However, if a tiger is allowed to lead a group of sheep, the sheep will also become unstoppable. Therefore, the general is brave, and the commander is scheming. The Confucian culture used etiquette to imprison the thoughts of the Qin people, turning a group of fierce tigers into a group of sheep that abided by etiquette. By then, the six countries would no longer be afraid of the Qin country, and his father's dream of unifying the world would come to an end.”
Qin Wang Zheng was drenched in cold sweat as he listened. Jiang Lv was no longer an eight-year-old child, but a wise and experienced man. If this wasn't his son, Qin Wangzheng would have killed him. If the State of Wei and the State of Zhao obtained such a monster, Great Qin's destruction would be imminent.
Qin Wangzheng laughed and looked at Jiang Lu with admiration."Based on what Jiang Lu said today, I don't know how to reward you.”
Meng Ling looked fearfully at the mountain of memorials on the King of Qin's table and shook her head with a bitter face.""This child is playful by nature and loves freedom the most. Father, it's better not to reward him.”
"Gan Luo became prime minister at the age of twelve. Jiang Lu is such a talented person, how can he shirk his responsibility?”Qin Wangzheng said seriously.
Meng Ling knew that Gan Luo was the prime minister.
Gan Luo was from Xiacai, Chu State. He had been smart since he was young. His grandfather, Gan Mao, was a famous figure in the Qin country and had once served as the Left Prime Minister of the Qin country.
As the saying went," A scholar comes from the prime minister's door." Gan Mao was ostracized by others and was forced to flee the State of Qin. Soon after, he died in the State of Wei. At a young age, Gan Luo had sought refuge under the Prime Minister of the Qin State, Lu Buwei, and became his customer.
At that time, the Qin State attempted to ally with Yan State to attack Zhao State. They planned to send Minister Zhang Tang as an envoy to Yan State, but Zhang Tang used an excuse to decline. Lu Buwei was at his wit's end. Gan Luo volunteered to persuade Zhang Tang to take up his post.
Lu Buwei didn't believe him at first, but Gan Luo said righteously,""In the past, Xiang Yu became Confucius 'teacher when he was seven years old. I'm already twelve years old now. Can't you let me try?”Lu Buwei had no choice but to agree to his request.
