The Disappointed Ying Zheng
The Qin Emperor sat in front of Fu Su, holding a bamboo slip in his hand and reading it.
He understood Fu Su's character. He had too much benevolence and righteousness in his heart. If he was in a peaceful and prosperous world, this kind of benevolence and righteousness would be icing on the cake.
However, in this seemingly peaceful era, benevolence and righteousness were not blessings, but a knife hanging over one's head!
For example, he had long known that Fu Su had established the Hall of Talents, but the effect was not great. There were many people in the Hall of Talents who were more famous than real. Only a benevolent person like Fu Su would recruit all the 'talents' who had some reputation.
With the remnants of the Six Nations in the dark, who knew if this Sage Selection Hall would become a news center?
Ying Zheng had a broad mind, and he thought of many things. He had seen too many conspiracies, and it was difficult for him to look at anything with a peaceful gaze.
In addition, he was troubled by a group of complicated matters today and was also thinking about the divine doctor in Kuaiji. How could he still be in the mood to listen to Fu Su recommend others?
Waving the bamboo slip in his hand, Ying Zheng said calmly,""Is there anything else?”
Seeing that Ying Zheng had no reaction, Fu Su's heart was still filled with the desire to recommend Jiang Bai. He then recalled what he had seen in the tavern.
He pursed his lips and continued,"Father!"
"The Great Qin Empire will command the other six countries to establish eternal achievements. His father had set up the empire's sacred policy of using the same language, using the same carriage, and unifying the weights and measures…The remnants of the six countries who rebelled against Qin were among them. Gradually being nibbled away was a long-term strategy. However, if Imperial Father were to recruit talents and celebrities, it would further highlight Imperial Father's reputation as a virtuous person. Fu Su believes that this would speed up the process of the Sacred Strategy of Heart Attack."
In the end, what he said did not deviate from the heart of recommending talents.
Even after listening to Jiang Bai's advice, he could not complete the transformation of his thoughts in a short period of time.
Otherwise, how could Confucianism, which had influenced later generations for more than two thousand years, be so consolidated?
However... Fu Su's words also attracted Ying Zheng's attention.
Ying Zheng put away the bamboo slips and placed them on the table.
He glanced at Fu Su, who was kneeling on the ground.
He had set the rules of using the same language, using the same carriage, and unifying the weights and measures. Everyone thought that he was the domineering ruler of the Qin country and that he respected the Qin country.
However, no one would have thought that he was doing this to appease the rebellious hearts of the remnants of the six dynasties, in order to create an unprecedented, truly unified country.
Now, this Fu Su, whom he thought was too benevolent to be the successor of the empire, could actually see through his thoughts. How could he not be surprised?
"Fu Su! Do you know my intention of writing the same text and riding the same carriage?”Ying Zheng stood up and walked to Fusu.
Even though Ying Zheng was just standing there, it was enough to make Fu Su feel a great pressure.
That was the might of a king that came with a generation of emperors.
No one in the world can surpass him!
Fu Su's pupils gradually narrowed. He mustered up his courage and said,""A hundred years later, where Fanjiang River will be! The sun and moon shone! All for Qin!"
He directly quoted Jiang Bai's words. After saying that, he felt his heart suddenly open up, and a relaxed aura flowed through every inch of his body.
The great regal might completely dissipated. Fu Su felt that he had also completed a transformation.
It was only when he said this that he truly understood what Jiang Bai meant by a hundred years of planning.
"Fanjiang River!"
"The sun and moon shine!"
"All for Qin!"
"Fanjiang River!"
Ying Zheng kept pacing in front of Fu Su, his hands behind his back. With every step he took, he would mutter Fu Su's words.
This sentence drew a perfect ending for his hundred-year plan.
The entire study seemed to be extremely quiet. The sound of Ying Zheng's pacing back and forth footsteps seemed to be stepping on the hearts of the palace officials on night duty, making them extremely nervous.
"Good!" After a long while, Ying Zheng finally spat out a single word.
"What a good way to say that wherever the rivers go, wherever the sun and moon shine, all are Qin soil!!!”
Ying Zheng swept away the gloom that had accumulated in the imperial court and laughed heartily.
Hearing Ying Zheng's hearty laughter, Fu Su knew that it was the right time to recommend him.
"Fusu!" Ying Zheng asked. Your words today have surprised me.”
"It's really rare for you to think of this level!”
"However, a hundred-year plan is too long. In the future, you children will have to carry it out. Now that I have some difficult questions, I will test you first."
The eunuchs and maidservants at the side revealed complicated expressions when they heard this.
He left the room.
After all, they knew that this kind of examination was related to the future ruler of Great Qin, and they could not listen to it or say anything.
Ying Zheng did not say much about the dismissal of the eunuchs and maidservants, but merely reached out his hand to pull Fu Su up.
He said in a clear voice," Fusu, I have a few questions that I have pondered for a long time in the Imperial Court today. Tell me your opinion."”
"Most of the people in the Imperial Court are the officials of the Great Qin Kingdom. They have a large amount of land and wealth in their hands, and they are eyeing the Great Qin Kingdom's treasury covetously. Just as you thought, the remaining six countries have not perished. If Great Qin suffers too much internal strife, how will it deal with internal and external problems?”
Hearing this, Fu Su instantly choked up. He opened his mouth but could not say a word.
It wasn't that he didn't have any ideas. If it was before, his ideas would definitely be based on Confucianism.
But now, he finally understood his father's good intentions. He knew that it was impossible to cure it with Confucianism, so he fell silent.
Seeing that Fu Su remained silent, a look of disappointment flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes.
Then, he walked forward and patted his shoulder, comforting him,"This is a problem that even the sages of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy couldn't solve. This is the root of the problem.”
"Yes! Fusu will take his leave!" Fu Su thought for a long time but could not get the gist of it. He could only give up and go back to think about it.
Ying Zheng watched as Fu Su left.
He shook his head in disappointment and sighed,""In the past, even though his decisions were mediocre, he still had his own views. Why did he not say a word when he saw that Fu Su was clearly different today?”
