Even these officials did not know, but when Bai Yu mentioned the role of the Embroidered Uniform Guards, a sense of crisis appeared!
This sense of danger seemed to be able to take their lives at any time, making them feel fear in their hearts and their expressions extremely terrified.
It was as if he had been targeted by a ferocious beast.
"The nine ministers of the Supreme Court conferred by me will be responsible for the establishment of Brocade Guards.”
On the dragon throne, the First Emperor looked at all the officials and said.
"Your Majesty!"
At this moment, the official of Qi State stood up and said,""The purpose of establishing the Embroidered Uniform Guards is to monitor Great Qin, so it naturally requires a large amount of money and manpower. Now that Your Majesty has unified the world…isn't it too rushed?”
He stood out precisely because of that sense of danger.
Secondly, it was already impossible to change Bai Yu's position as one of the nine ministers. If they still objected, the outcome was self-evident.
Moreover, he had just said that he wanted to unify the world, not the six countries.
He was originally from Qi State, one of the six states. One could imagine how he felt when he said this.
"Your Majesty, I also feel that this is too hasty.”
The Wei official also stood up and said,""Once the Embroidered Uniform Guards are established, it will definitely cause panic among the people.”
"I agree!"
Very soon, the original officials of the Six Nations also stood up.
"Ministers, His Majesty established the Embroidered Uniform Guards to monitor Great Qin and prevent the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, not to monitor you.”
Bai Yu's eyes turned and he said," Although the Brocade Guard can arrest anyone, as long as you are loyal to His Majesty, the Brocade Guard will only protect you."”
As soon as he finished speaking, all the officials subconsciously looked at Bai Yu.
For some reason, the sense of danger in their hearts grew even stronger. It was as if they would be captured after the Embroidered Uniform Guards were established.
"Your Majesty!"
"I think it's feasible to establish the Jinyiwei," Wang Ben said.”
"I agree!"
Meng Wu said," Once the Embroidered Uniform Guards are established, all information about Great Qin will be controlled by the Embroidered Uniform Guards. Those who want to plot against His Majesty will not dare to appear easily. This way, we will have more time to capture them!”
Yesterday, the Emperor summoned the two of them into the palace to select loyal people from the Meng and Wang families to be used as candidates for the Embroidered Uniform Guards.
The Meng and Wang families were extremely loyal to the First Emperor and agreed without thinking.
At this moment, the two of them naturally could not object to this matter.
"I agree!" Li Si said.
"I agree!" Zhao Gao said.
"This…"
All the officials looked at Li Si, and their expressions changed.
They did not expect Li Si, the Prime Minister, to agree to this plan!
It seemed that even if they opposed the establishment of the Jinyiwei, it would be useless.
"From today on, the establishment of Brocade Guards will be handled by the nine ministers.”
"The Jinyiwei's headquarters is in the side hall of Epang Palace!"”
Epang Palace was the largest palace in Great Qin!
The first emperor ordered people to start building it after the same six countries, and it has not been completed yet!
If it was completed, it would take at least a few years. No, it might even take more time than this!
Epang Palace was the palace that the First Emperor loved the most and cared about the most!
Now that the First Emperor had set up the headquarters of the Embroidered Uniform Guards in Epang Palace, it could be seen how much the First Emperor cared about the organization of the Embroidered Uniform Guards!
'No, what the First Emperor cares about might be Bai Yu who has become the dean of the nine ministers!'
Qin Shi Huang's sworn brother!
However, they could not understand why the First Emperor would care so much about this sworn brother.!
He was clearly just a sworn brother.
Why was it like this?
Even Li Si and Zhao Gao only understood a little. It was impossible to know what the Emperor was thinking!
…………
All the officials waited quietly for the emperor to say the third thing.
First, Bai Yu had been appointed as the chief justice of the Supreme Court.
The second was to establish the Jinyiwei.
The first two events had already shocked all the officials, so the third event would probably shock them even more.
"The third thing is that I am preparing to hold the imperial examination!”
The First Emperor's voice rang out in the hall.
Imperial examinations?
Meng Wu and Wang Ben frowned, not knowing what he meant.
"May I ask Your Majesty, what is the imperial examination?”
As the Prime Minister, Li Si was the first to speak. Even though he already knew what the Imperial Examination meant, he still needed to ask.
Because he was the Prime Minister!
The leader of all officials!
"The imperial examination is a selection system.”
" I plan to hold an imperial examination in all of Great Qin," Qin Shi Huang said calmly." Regardless of background, as long as one can pass the imperial examination, one can enter the court as an official!”
Regardless of his background?
After hearing the Emperor's words, all the officials could no longer remain calm.
Even Meng Wu and Wang Ben's expressions changed. They couldn't imagine why the First Emperor would have such thoughts.
"Let me tell the ministers more simply.”
" No matter what background or identity," Bai Yu said softly," even a commoner can participate in the imperial examination.”
Most of Great Qin's residents were illiterate, but there were still some knowledgeable people.
Zhang Liang, Xiao He!
Whether it was Zhang Liang or Xiao He, they were several times stronger than the officials in the court!
"Your Majesty, you must not do this!!”
an old official of Great Qin hurriedly said.
Once the imperial examination was held, if someone passed the imperial examination and became an official, their status would naturally be threatened!
If there were only two or three of them, it would be fine. But if there were dozens of them…their official positions would probably be removed by the First Emperor!
They were also very clear that the First Emperor had long disliked them. Now, the Imperial Examination was the opportunity that the First Emperor had found!
As such, both the old ministers of Great Qin and the original ministers of the six dynasties strongly opposed this!
"Your Majesty, please reconsider!"
