"Hehe, another guy who claims to be a sage has come. Why are there so many of these Confucian scums?”
"It can't be helped. In this day and age, as long as you use the name of Confucianism, you can deceive some ignorant people and easily obtain wealth and honor.”
"In the past, our various clans were forced out of the various countries by the scholarly faction through various means.”
"There's nothing we can do about it. Who asked us to be less thick-skinned than the Confucians?”
"That's right. Even if you can't read much and can't be a Confucian scholar, you can still be an alchemist and use some evil techniques. You can still swindle people!”
"Xu Fu, Lu Sheng, and the others who were killed by Young Master Changqing were all from the scholarly faction, and they had very good relationships with many important figures in the scholarly faction!”
"According to the accounts of Xu Fu's accomplices, most of the money they swindled was given to the scholarly faction as a fee to cooperate with their tricks. It can be seen that they are a nest of snakes and rats!”
"Just now, these so-called great scholars were forced by Young Master Changqing and began to expose each other's shortcomings. That scene was really exciting!”
"What infighting, framing, slander, and even secretly poisoning the opponent? He's even more vicious than the street hooligans!”
"The internal structure of the scholarly faction isn't a sacred sect that specializes in studying and learning. It has long since hatched into a territory for power struggles.”
"They kept saying that His Majesty's system of prefectures and counties was not good and that they advocated for the system of enfeoffment. They were simply speaking up for the remnants of the Six Nations and hoped that Great Qin would return to the days when the Six Nations were divided and wars broke out.”
"Because only in this way can these people be able to eat from both sides of the world and continue to maintain their high and mighty status!”
Just as Ying Changqing had expected, seeing that the Confucian scholars had a chance to rise up again, the disciples of the other families all jumped out and started to attack the Confucian scholars.
Many knowledgeable citizens of Xianyang City also stood out.
This was Great Qin's Imperial City, the territory of the old Qin people.
The people of Xianyang City had always loved the First Emperor and the seemingly brutal Young Master Changqing, who was actually helping the people punish the silkpants and protect the peace.
Seeing their idol being slandered, the citizens who were originally enjoying the show could not sit still anymore.
"Hehe, the Confucians claim that benevolence, righteousness, and morality are the first path of governing the country, but in reality, they are very useless when it comes to implementation.
Old Master Kong couldn't even protect his hometown, the State of Lu. Zhongshan, the State of Zheng, and other countries that believed in Confucianism were also quickly destroyed by other countries. One could see how unbearable Confucianism was!”
"If you really want to govern the country, you have to look to Great Qin!”
"Great Qin was able to destroy the six countries in such a short period of time because we insisted on ruling the country according to the law. No matter who it is, everyone has to abide by the law and be equal. Even the most ordinary people have hope of becoming outstanding through the military merit system!”
" This is the true way to treat us commoners as humans, unlike the Six Nations of the past, where the Confucians boasted about the nobles and nobles, but in reality, the commoners were treated as slaves and cannon fodder!”
"Everyone, follow me. A group of bastards who dare to slander His Majesty and Young Master Changqing in Xianyang City!”
Many of the citizens of Xianyang City who had a good temper rolled up their sleeves and started fighting.
"This kid is really good at sorting out people's hearts!”
"This method, even this Imperial Father has to admit defeat!”
In the restaurant, looking at the Confucian scholars who were surrounded and beaten up by the angry people, Ying Zheng's face could not help but show a hint of emotion.
As the first emperor of Great Qin, Ying Zheng was very clear about the sanctimonious appearance of the Confucian Sect, as well as the fact that they were decayed on the inside.
However, considering the hundreds of thousands of scholars of the Confucian Sect and their influence among the common people, Ying Zheng did not dare to attack the Confucian Sect without sufficient reason and evidence.
Otherwise, if they really fell out with the Confucian Sect, Great Qin's already bad reputation in the Six Nations would become even worse.
These Confucians were good at boasting about governing the country, smearing people's names and smearing dirty water, but they had been trained to perfection in the internal strife. In addition, Xianyang City was far away from the emperor, and the people who did not know the truth could easily be incited by these Confucians, which made even Ying Zheng have to be wary of them.
Otherwise, with the First Emperor's temper, these Confucians would have long taken them all down if they dared to publicly slander and advocate the prefecture and county system.
However, in Ying Changqing's case, Ying Zheng saw the best way to deal with the Confucian scholars.
He would directly attack the reputation that the Confucian Sect relied on to survive, forcing the scums of the Confucian Sect to stand up and expose the Confucian Sect's crimes, completely cutting off the opportunity for them to bewitch the people.
The second thing was to make use of the Imperial Court's credibility and make the people of the six countries understand the benefits of living in Great Qin, so as to win over the hearts of the people.
After stabilizing the people's hearts, Great Qin's Imperial Court would be completely invincible, and they would be able to deal with these Confucian scholars however they wanted.
To put it bluntly, the Confucian Sect was nothing more than a group of educated students. It was only because of the God-Creation Movement that Confucius had been turned into a sage, so that he could use the name of protecting the descendants of sages to swindle people everywhere.
In terms of contribution to Great Qin, even the most inconspicuous and easily overlooked farmers were much more powerful than the Confucian Sect.
At the very least, most of the disciples of the peasant family were in contact with Tian Di. If the teachings were to spread, it would allow the people to harvest more food and eat more.
"If only this kid could keep a low profile and have a higher reputation!”
"But if that's the case, then it's not him.”
"Forget it, this kid has done so many things for Great Qin and for Us, our Imperial Father. If We continue to force him, We won't be able to get through this.”
"Moreover, this one has promised him that he can do whatever he wants. No matter what kind of commotion he causes, this one, as his father, will support him.”
Ying Zheng's expression changed for a long time, but he finally made up his mind.
Since Ying Changqing had already started a war against the scholarly faction, and had even taught his father a lesson on how to deal with the scholarly faction, he might as well just go all out and attack the scholarly faction.
A school of thought should do its part, educate the people, and assist the imperial court in governing the country. It should not attempt to stand above the country and become a tool for some ambitious people to seek benefits!
However, just as Ying Zheng was about to return to the palace, the situation in the arena changed again.
