In Zhangtai Palace.
The fate of Young Master Fu Su and his followers was in the hands of Li Si and Han Qiu.
If Young Master Fusu built the Hall of Gathering Virtues, the great scholars like Chunyu Yue would definitely become phoenixes and would no longer be idle clouds and wild cranes outside the court.
He was no longer seeking fame.
Meng Tian's expression suddenly became nervous. She had always been on good terms with Young Master Fu Su and had often helped him in the open and in the dark. Now that the Emperor had asked about the Hall of Virtue, she immediately said,""Your Majesty, not only can the Hall of Gathering Virtues gain a good reputation for Young Master, but it can also gather the famous people of the six dynasties in Xianyang for Your Majesty and Young Master to use!”
Hearing Meng Tian's words, Ying Zheng said thoughtfully,""Li Si, Han Qiu, what do you think?”
After a moment of silence, Li Si said,"" Your Majesty, I believe that Young Master Fusu is still young. Moreover, Your Majesty is healthy and can stand for ten thousand generations. I believe that Your Majesty can personally appease the celebrities of the six countries without relying on Young Master Fusu…"
When Han Qiu heard Li Si's words, she thought to herself,""Young Master Fusu and Li Si might really have an old grudge. Otherwise, as long as Li Si put in a few good words for Fusu today, the construction of the Hall of Virtue would definitely be successful!”
Ying Zheng listened to Li Si's and Meng Tian's opposing opinions without showing any expression...
"What do you think, Inner Lord of the Pass?"
At that moment, Li Si and Meng Tian looked at Han Qiu. Meng Tian hoped that Han Qiu would support Fu Su in building the Sage Gathering Hall and give Young Master Fu Su a good name.
Li Si had a grudge against Fu Su and was unwilling to see Fu Su rise to power.
"Your Majesty, the world has just been settled and the six states have just been unified. It is inevitable that the remnants of the six states will want to restore the country. If Young Master Fusu is unable to control the Sage Gathering Hall, I'm afraid that he will be controlled by the remnants of the six states and become a marionette!”
Han Qiu ignored Li Si and Meng Tian's gazes. He only spoke his true thoughts. In history, Young Master Fusu had established the Hall of Virtue, and a large group of famous people from the six dynasties had gathered there to discuss the government and even list the crimes of the First Emperor…
Although the appearance of the Hall of Gathering Virtues gave Young Master Fusu the reputation of cherishing talents, he was controlled by the Confucians of the Hall of Gathering Virtues. Not only did he not get angry at them for listing Qin Shihuang's crimes, but he also stood behind them and became the puppet of the remnants of the six dynasties. In the end, when he was killed, he even followed the teachings of these Confucians.
If the monarch wants me to die, I have to die!
If the father wants the son to die, the son has to die!
With 300,000 Meng family troops, as long as they marched south, who would dare to stop them?
The eldest son, Fu Su, had a legitimate reason!
Could Zhao Gao stop it?
Could Li Si stop it?
However, Young Master Fusu was so foolish. He followed the Confucian teachings and hanged himself when the First Emperor's fake edict arrived!
When Meng Tian heard that Han Qiu did not support Young Master Fusu's decision to establish the Hall of Virtue, she thought to herself,""Young Master, it's not that I don't want to help you, but I really can't do anything!”
……
In Young Master Fusu's mansion.
Chunyu Yue and the other Confucian scholars gathered in Fu Su's residence and waited quietly. Young Master Fu Su had already submitted a memorial. Once the Sage Gathering Hall was established, it would definitely shake the Great Qin and the nobles of the six dynasties!
The ambitions in their hearts could also be displayed!
They didn't know if the First Emperor would be prepared. Their fates were now tied to Zhangtai Palace.
Whether or not they could succeed depended on the First Emperor's decision!
At this moment, they had yet to realize that their wish to become a phoenix had already been completely snuffed out in Zhangtai Palace.
……
Ying Zheng placed Fu Su's memorial on the desk and said,""Alright, I understand. The three beloved ministers should go back and rest.”
After Han Qiu and the others left, Ying Zheng picked up Fu Su's memorial. He had to consider the matter that Li Si and the Marquis of the Inner Pass had mentioned. It seemed that it was better not to build this Recruitment Hall.
In Ying Zheng's eyes, he was in his prime, and it would be a little too hasty to cultivate Fu Su's forces now. It would not be too late to let Fu Su build the Recruitment Hall after he had grown up for a period of time and was able to understand the truth and change right from wrong.
……
Han Qiu returned to the residence to rest. The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and Han Qiu woke up early.
Today was his first day in office. It was time for him to see what kind of abilities the officials of the internal history office had. If they were ignorant and incompetent, Han Qiu did not mind chasing away a group of officials!
Han Qiu changed into her official uniform and brought Xiao He to the office of the internal historian…
In the office of the internal historian, many officials were on standby. Today was the first day of the new official's appointment. They still did not know what kind of personality the new internal historian had. If he was as easy to fool as Ying Ju, this official position in the office of the internal historian would definitely be a lucrative one!
They had heard of the power of the internal historian. The internal historian had entered the court with the imperial roll and was granted the title of Marquis of the Pass. He had also presented Xuan paper, abacus, and other items in Zhangtai Palace. Even Right Prime Minister Wang Wan had been suppressed by the First Emperor.
Right now, the Marquis of the Pass was the emperor's favorite!
……
In Zhangtai Palace.
Ying Zheng had just woken up when a temple attendant came into the palace and reported,""Your Majesty, Young Master Fu Su requests an audience!”
"Let him in!"
After Ying Zheng wiped his hands, Fusu had already entered the palace. After he entered the palace, he knelt down and said,""Father, why did you reject the establishment of the Hall of Virtue?”
"Who are your subordinates?”
"Reporting to Imperial Father, the great scholar of the world, the famous scholar of the six countries, and the wise minister of governing the country! Imperial Father, if the Recruitment Hall is established, will your son be able to get more celebrities to join your son's Recruitment Hall?”
"You plan to open up more channels? Recruit celebrities from the six dynasties?"
"Your Majesty, those who join because of your reputation need to show extraordinary talent. If you don't have talent, you are not allowed to enter the recruitment hall!”
Looking at Fu Su's solemn expression, Ying Zheng asked,""Are Chunyu Yue and the others in your residence?”
"Reporting to Imperial Father, it is the great scholar Chunyu Yue!”
Ying Zheng smiled and said," Now, go and convince the Marquis of the Pass. No matter what method you use, even if it is the advice of the great scholar behind you, if you can get the Marquis of the Pass to come into the palace and speak for you, I will agree to your request to build the Talent-Gathering Hall. Otherwise, I will not agree to your request!”
"This…"
Young Master Fu Su immediately understood. This was a test given to them by his father. If they could get the Inner Marquis to speak for them, His Majesty would allow them to build the Sage Gathering Hall. If they could not get the Inner Marquis to speak for them, then the strategists and scholars in the Young Master's residence would be useless. It was better not to have such people!
Fu Su stood up and cupped his hands." Father, your son will definitely ask the Marquis of the Pass to stand up for your son!"”
"Oh, you are full of confidence. I will wait for your good news. If the Marquis inside the Pass really speaks up for you, I will not only let you build the Hall of Virtue, but I will also personally carry the plaque for you.”
"Your son will not disappoint father's expectations!”
After Young Master Fusu left Zhangtai Palace, he immediately asked the person beside him,""What is the figure of the Inner Marquis of the Pass?"
"Reporting to Young Master, the Marquis of the Inner Pass is the Nine Ministers 'Grain Internal History. He should be in the Grain Internal History Office right now!”
"Good! Follow me to the office of the internal historian!”
Young Master Fu Su thought to himself, This time, when I go to see the Inner Pass Marquis, no matter how hard-hearted he is, I must warm him up!”
