"I…"
Ying Zheng's old face turned red, and he was so ashamed that he wanted to crawl into the crack in the ground.
F * ck.
Did he have to be so disrespectful?
At this moment, the Ancestral Dragon wanted to take Xu Fu, who was hanging on the city wall, down and dismember him!
It was this bastard!
He had completely lost his dignity in front of Su Chen!
"Old Zhao, it's precisely because the people's wisdom has not been awakened that they have been used by evil people to resist Great Qin!”
Su Chen's voice sounded again.
"If the commoners are enlightened and can distinguish right from wrong, and their minds are influenced by Great Qin, will they still have any disloyalty?”
"Just as you thought, the people will have different thoughts. Unlocking the people's wisdom can strengthen Great Qin's unity and unite the people!”
"Think about it, if the people of the six countries were all influenced by Great Qin's culture and felt Great Qin's magnificence, would they still have the six countries in their hearts?”
Ying Zheng was startled. After a moment of contemplation, his eyes lit up.
That's right, if the people could be influenced by Great Qin's culture, how could there be six countries in the future?
The purpose of the First Emperor writing the same text was to unify their thinking and prevent the various cultures from interfering with the people of the world.
However, the First Emperor did not have the concept of unifying his thoughts!
The Great Qin Empire had always ruled the country with laws, and it did not have a culture like the Confucians that could educate the people!
Now, the commoners of the world had submitted to Great Qin because they were afraid of the harshness of Great Qin's laws, and they did not feel much sense of belonging!
However, if the people were allowed to assimilate into Great Qin's culture, they would feel proud of Great Qin and protect it!
Thinking about it, the reason why Liu Che wanted to abolish all schools of thought and only respect Confucianism was because of this!
The Confucians became the foundation of the Great Han Dynasty's culture and educated the people, allowing the people of the world to completely acknowledge the Great Han Dynasty.
From then on, the people of the world called themselves the Han people, and Confucianism had completely become the Han culture that had been passed down for two thousand years!
This was cultural assimilation!
"Old Zhao, educating the commoners is very important to Great Qin's rule.”
Su Chen continued, looking at Ying Zheng,""Perhaps you don't know, but Great Qin's control over the world has a huge problem!”
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"Government decrees cannot be passed on to the people of the world, and the people of the six countries do not understand Great Qin's laws!”
Su Chen took a sip of the water and said,"Do you know how the people evaluate His Majesty when I travel the world?”
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows." What's your evaluation?”
"Tyrant!"
Ying Zheng was speechless.
"Brutal beyond measure!"
Ying Zheng was speechless.
"Unbearably licentious!"
Ying Zheng was speechless.
"Impudent!"
Ying Zheng slapped his hand and stood up, cursing out of anger,""Nonsense!"
Su Chen was stunned. He looked at Ying Zheng and said," No, Old Zhao, why are you so agitated? Isn't this a very normal thing?"”
"Normal?"
Ying Zheng widened his eyes and wanted to get angry, but Su Chen waved his hand and said,"
"Everyone knows that Great Qin's laws are harsh, but they don't know how harsh they are. They also don't know that there are rewards and punishments in Great Qin's laws.”
"Why?"
"The common people have not yet awakened their wisdom, and they do not even know how to write. Once the decrees and laws are issued everywhere, they will be maliciously distorted.”
Su Chen said leisurely,"
"Three people become a tiger. The law of the people has been maliciously twisted into tyranny!”
"If that's the case, how can the people feel a sense of belonging towards Great Qin? How can they acknowledge the identity of a Qin citizen?”
Ying Zheng's expression froze, and he stood there in a daze. Seeing this, Su Chen smiled and said,"
"There is only one way to break this stalemate. Teach the people to be wise and not be deceived by others!”
"Instead of using harsh laws to intimidate the people, it's better to use education to assimilate the thoughts of the people.”
Assimilating the minds of the people?
The monarch and the people were united!
Ying Zheng was not a fatuous ruler. At first, he felt that it was inappropriate, but after Su Chen's persuasion, he came to his senses.
In the past, no one in the court had ever raised such an opinion to him.
There were not many civil officials in the Great Qin Dynasty. Most of them were from the old Qin Dynasty. Their actions had always been simple and crude. How could they understand such royal techniques?
Li Si also believed in Legalism, so he wouldn't bring up such a point of view.
They started farming, focused on craftsmen, promoted merchants, and spread culture...
Ying Zheng silently recited these words in his heart. Su Chen did not continue, but sat there calmly drinking water.
He knew that such a view was difficult for the Qin people to accept and needed time to digest!
"Master Su, you gave Qu Yuanli and the others to me because you want me to use this opportunity to give His Majesty my opinion?”
Ying Zheng looked at Su Chen with a half-smile. The latter coughed dryly and said without hiding anything,"
"I've been thinking about this for a long time. Old Zhao, believe me, if this matter succeeds, it will definitely leave a mark in history!”
"Then why can't Master Su go and find His Majesty personally?”
Ying Zheng looked at Su Chen with bright eyes and said seriously,""Perhaps I can introduce you to him!”
A recommendation?
It didn't exist!
Su Chen did not want to enter the royal court and scheme against each other. How could a person without a background like him resist?
Let's not talk about it for the time being. If the first emperor abolished the eldest son inheritance system, what if people knew that he did it?!
The nobles in the world would definitely want to skin themselves alive and not be able to sleep well.
Su Chen didn't want to stick his head out like this.
"Referred? Not to mention whether His Majesty will believe me, I'm just a businessman and I'm not suitable to serve in the court.”
Su Chen appeared very calm as he looked at Ying Zheng and said,"
"Old Zhao, do you know that if you want to do these things, you need someone to do it personally?”
"Enlightening the common people is not something that can be done in a day. Someone has to travel the world and gradually sow the fire of civilization. This is extraordinary!”
"I only lack the order of His Majesty the First Emperor. For the prosperity of the world, I am obliged!!!”
Ying Zheng's heart was shaken beyond words.
It was one thing to issue a decree, but it was another to execute it personally. Wandering the world would mean facing the nobles of the six dynasties and all the kings!
After all, there were still remnants of the original culture in the hinterland of the six countries. It was not easy to assimilate them!
Su Chen was willing to travel the world and personally handle this matter? How bold was this!
"Master Su's ambition is indeed extraordinary. I understand now!”
Ying Zheng took a deep breath, put his hand on Su Chen's shoulder and said resolutely,"
"Good! I'll handle the internal affairs of the court, and Head Su will handle the external affairs. You and I will work together to rebuild Great Qin!”
