As soon as he finished speaking, the wind and thunder were probably just like that.
Most of the people in the court were furious as they criticized Li Si.
It was just like how the people in the imperial court criticized Lord Shang hundreds of years ago.
People had changed. This group of people was the group of people who had been criticized back then, but things had changed. They had become the ones who blamed others.
The dragon slayer would eventually become an evil dragon.
Li Si turned a deaf ear to his words. He raised his head and looked at Ying Zheng,""Your Majesty, please accept it."
"I am willing to use my life as a guarantee to carry out this reform.”
He took off his hair crown and placed it in his hand."As long as the reform is not successful, I will no longer be the Left Prime Minister.”
Ying Zheng burst out laughing all of a sudden. He stood up, his voice suppressing all the voices of accusation.
"Hahahahaha, ahahahaha.”
"Good, good, good!"
"Li Si's words are great, I'll give you a prize!”
"What does Old General Wang think?"
Wang Jian opened his eyes, and a smile hung on the corners of his mouth. He suddenly took a step forward and took out a stack of land contracts from his bosom.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, this is the land that Your Majesty had previously bestowed to this subject, or that this subject had bought.”
"This subject is willing to sacrifice this land for Your Majesty. This subject is willing to sacrifice his life for Your Majesty!”
As he spoke, Wang Jian knelt on the ground. In his hand was the contract that represented all the land of the Wang Clan. His expression was solemn.
Wang Ben stood aside with a respectful look on his face. He knew what his father was planning last night, and he had no intention of stopping him.
All of the Old Qin people were willing to give up everything for Great Qin!
Ying Zheng looked at Wang Jian, waved his hand, and asked Zhao Gao to pick up the title deed. Then, he chuckled and said,""Alright."
"Old General Wang is loyal to the country. Zhen is truly gratified.”
He then looked at Li Si with admiration.
"Li Si, you really did something big this time. I really feel that you are more like a representative of Legalism than your junior brother.”
"In the past, the Shang King proposed a reform. Today, you have also proposed a reform, but you have expanded the boundaries of the law.”
"The Confucians have Confucius and Mencius, and the Legalists have Li Han.”
"If you can really succeed in the reform and explain the law thoroughly, your contribution will be greater than Han Feizi's and Xun Zi's.”
With a single word, the world was shocked.
However, no one had anything to say. After all, if Li Si could complete the reform, his contribution to Legalism would indeed be enough for him to become one of the philosophers.
This was a Sage!
He was the first Sage after the unification! The first existence that could be called a son!
Li Si's heart was pounding. He thought that even if he reformed, he might not be able to become a plum.
Becoming a plum was only the deepest wish in his heart. But, he had not expected that Ying Zheng would say it out loud right now.
Since Ying Zheng had spoken, who in the world would dare to refute him?
As long as he succeeded in his reform, he would be Li Zi, the only son of Legalism!
"This subject will definitely die!"
Ying Zheng waved his hand and said," The imperial edict conferred Li Si the title of Dharma Lord. His fief is near the fief of Lord Shang.”
"The imperial edict states that Li Si is in charge of the reform and the nationalization of the land.”
Li Si bowed deeply with a solemn expression.""This subject receives the decree."
After playing with the sweet dates, Ying Zheng cracked a smile. After playing with the sweet dates, he was ready to beat them with a wooden club.
He then said," Li Si, listen up. I will bestow upon you the Duke Mu's Nation Guarding Sword and the Shang Lord's Reformed Sword. If anyone disobeys or disobeys the reform, no matter who it is, behead them!"”
When everyone heard the two swords in front of them, they sucked in a breath of cold air. This was really too terrifying.
Shang Jun's reform sword killed his subjects, and Duke Mu's national sword killed the imperial clan!
It seemed that no one could stop His Majesty's intention to reform this time.
After the court session, everyone's faces were gloomy. Even the people who used to follow Li Si were now cold.
Many people wanted to draw a line between them and Li Si. They were afraid that when Li Si died, his blood would splash on them.
An official even walked up to Li Si with a cold smile.
"Li Si, don't be too pleased. You have to know that Shang Yang didn't end up well!”
These words were a blatant warning to Li Si. If Shang Yang's fate wasn't good, then would his fate be good?
Li Si's lips curled into a smile. Then, he instantly stabbed the sword into the man's chest.
"I don't know if my ending will be good or not, but I know that yours won't be.”
After saying that, Li Si stood there and said coldly,""The Wang family blocked the reform and killed Wang Li outside Xianyang Palace!”
"Let's set the record straight!"
Everyone instantly shivered in fear. This was f * cking serious!
afternoon
Ying Zheng stretched his back and changed into the casual clothes that he had prepared earlier, preparing to head to Xianyang City to see how Li Si's reform was going.
While helping Ying Zheng undress, Zhao Gao said,""Your Majesty, the Dharma Lord has set up a stall outside the city.”
"It's said to be a trial. Those who are willing to hand it over can go there to register.”
"Moreover, the compensation for the money that came first will definitely be more, and the money that came later will definitely be less.”
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, a slight smile on his face."" Li Si, this guy is really…"
"Let's go and see how Li Si's reform is going.”
As he spoke, he led Zhao Gao out of the palace. At this moment, outside Xianyang City, where Li Si was, there was a sea of people.
A group of people surrounded Li Si. Li Si stood in the middle, his expression unchanged.
In just a moment, the crowd burst into an uproar. Then, they opened up a passage, and an old man who looked to be in his seventies walked over shakily.
He was still holding something in his hand.
The old man coughed when he reached Li Si.
"This old man is Zhang Ruoke, the elder of the Zhang Village. Greetings, Lord Dharma Lord.”
Li Si quickly helped him up and said,""There's no need to be so polite, old man."
Zhang Ruoke shakily took out a stack of title deeds.""Dharma Lord, my Zhang Village has a total of 343 people and 538 Mu of land.”
"The title deeds are all here.”
As he spoke, he handed the title deed to Li Si.
Li Si looked at the title deed and felt touched.
At this time, these were their lifeblood. How could they call them out just like that?
"Aren't you going to ask for compensation?"
Zhang Ruoke cracked a smile. All his teeth had fallen out.
"We are willing to give everything for Great Qin!”
"Why bother with these small profits?”
The people from the Zhang Family behind him all said,""That's right, we old Qin people are willing to sacrifice everything for His Majesty and Great Qin!”
