Three days later, the First Emperor Ying Zheng hosted a banquet in Zhangtai Palace to entertain his ministers.
The wine that was served at the banquet was the latest 42-degree wine that had appeared in Xianyang City!
This matter…was indeed related to the First Emperor, Ying Zheng!
Li Si did not dare to act rashly anymore…
But at the same time, Li Si was on guard!
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, had been busy dealing with government affairs all day long. He definitely did not have the time to personally take charge of the winery.
Then, there must be a person who was extremely favored by him…
Who…could this person be?
While the ministers were praising the 42-proof wine, Li Si was clearly distracted.
It wasn't just because that person touched Li Si's cake…
It was also because Li Si suddenly felt that he was no longer trusted by the First Emperor, Ying Zheng.
Otherwise…
Making wine was such a big matter, so the First Emperor Ying Zheng should have left it to him!
He was the Prime Minister of Great Qin!
It was his duty to supervise the brewing of wine!!
But the winery in the outskirts of Xianyang City…Ying Zheng did not even discuss it with Li Si, let alone hand it over to him!!
First Emperor Ying Zheng naturally had the right to do so...
Li Si's glory today was all due to the First Emperor Ying Zheng's trust!
Therefore, Li Si did not dare to have any opinions about the First Emperor Ying Zheng, but the person who was in charge of the winery, the person who was deeply favored by the First Emperor Ying Zheng…
However, Li Si wanted to get rid of him quickly!!
Otherwise…he might even lose his position as Prime Minister!
And just as Li Si was feeling apprehensive…First Emperor Ying Zheng threw out the art of making paper!
"Congratulations, Your Majesty!”
"With this auspicious sign, the fate of Great Qin will be completely in the hands of the Imperial Court!!”
"Great Qin's fishing ship will also undergo earth-shattering changes!”
"The Hundred Schools of Philosophy…the world's famous scholars…the remnants of the Six Nations, there's no need to worry!!”
“……”
Just like potatoes, the officials of Great Qin also called paper making an auspicious sign for Great Qin!!
The ministers were in high spirits. They didn't expect that apart from being able to drink a 42-degree wine today, they would actually have an unexpected harvest!!
Paper Making Technique!
This would greatly reduce the burden on the officials and make them more efficient!
And this…was only the additional benefit!
The greatest benefit of the Paper Making Technique was that it could allow Great Qin to control the world's literary fate!!
As the ministers had said, although the First Emperor Ying Zheng was a peerless monarch, with unparalleled talent and strategy, the burning of books and burying of scholars was definitely not worth it.
He shouldn't have agreed to Li Si's advice!
However…they did not expect that the First Emperor Ying Zheng was waiting for them here!!
Paper Making Technique!
From then on, the Great Qin's literary fortune would soar!!
What was that?
You said that burning books and burying scholars ruined the Great Qin Dynasty's literary fortune?
There were only a few thousand bamboo slips and a few hundred Confucian scholars.
How could this ruin the Great Qin Empire's cultural fate?
That would be looking down on Great Qin!!
Burning the books and burying the Confucians is only ruining the fate of the Great Qin Dynasty's long-term stability!!
Paper Making…should be the foundation of Great Qin's culture!!
The ministers were excited. They looked at the white paper…
They all had a kind of eagerness to write books!!
Unlike the ministers 'excitement, Li Si's eyes lit up as he looked at the paper making technique.
He thought…he knew who was in charge of the winery for the First Emperor Ying Zheng!
That 'cheap merchant' who took out the three divine artifacts of potatoes, curved plows, divine arm crossbows, and horses!!
He didn't expect that those were not all of his talents…
42 degrees of fine wine! Paper Making Technique!
Just how many good things did he not take out?
What made Li Si extremely dissatisfied was that the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, was not only brewing wine behind Li Si's back!
He had even built a paper mill behind Li Si's back!!
This made Li Si even more wary…
Logically speaking, the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, should be in charge of such a big matter!
But now, the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, had bypassed him!!
Could it be that…His Majesty wants to abolish me, Li Si, and establish a new Prime Minister?
An alarm suddenly sounded in Li Si's heart!
If Li Si had only wanted to get rid of them before, then at this moment…looking at the Paper Making Art in front of him, Li Si was determined to kill all three of their clans!!!
Only then could the hatred in his heart be resolved!
This was the only way for Li Si to sleep soundly!!
"Lord Li!"
"Prime Minister!"
"Wake up!"
"His Majesty has orders…"
Just as Li Si was immersed in his thoughts, he heard a reminder from the person beside him.
When he came back to his senses, he saw the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, looking at him. There was not the slightest hint of joy or anger in his expression.
Li Si was shocked and quickly cupped his hands.""Your Majesty!"
"Is the Prime Minister so happy that he has lost his mind?”Ying Zheng asked.
The viciousness in Li Si's expression just now could not escape the eyes of First Emperor Ying Zheng.
It seemed like the Prime Minister was jealous of the talented!!
Did he really think that the First Emperor, Ying Zheng, did not know who Li Si was and what he was thinking?
How Han Fei died…The First Emperor Ying Zheng had not forgotten!
This was also why Li Si was only the Left Prime Minister of Great Qin and not the Right Prime Minister.
Great Qin respected the right side, and the left prime minister was still below the right prime minister!!
The First Emperor, Ying Zheng, wanted the Right Prime Minister, Wang Wan, to suppress Li Si, so that he would not be able to do whatever he wanted!!
However, Wang Wan…was truly a little unworthy of the First Emperor Ying Zheng's trust.
As the Right Prime Minister of Great Qin, not only did he not seize power from Li Si, he even obeyed Li Si…
"42 degrees of fine wine and the art of making paper are both important. Li Si…I'm sorry!”Li Si cupped his hands apologetically.
"It's fine…I can understand the Prime Minister's joy.”Ying Zheng waved his hand and continued,"
"I just said that I want the Prime Minister to come up with the most detailed laws of Great Qin!”
"There's also the dictionary and human relations!"
"Can the Prime Minister do it?"
Li Si stood up with a respectful expression." I'll sacrifice my life!”
"Yes, take the paper. Take more back. Be detailed and orderly!”said Ying Zheng.
"Here!"
Li Si felt slightly relieved…
The fact that His Majesty had given him such an important task meant that…he still trusted Li Si.
What Li Si was most afraid of was that the First Emperor Ying Zheng's favor would be transferred to that 'cheap business'...
And since he was favored and trusted, and he was the Prime Minister of Great Qin…
He didn't believe that he couldn't beat a lowly merchant!!!
