Three Questions to the Confucians! The desire to destroy the Confucians!
Fu Sheng was stunned when he heard Han Xu's words.
"I wonder what the state preceptor meant by giving his life?" he asked.”
Han Xu said lightly," After years of war, it's already a problem for the people to survive, let alone study. As for the imperial examination, the premise is that there must be enough scholars. Only then can the best be selected."”
"As such, I need the Confucians to educate the world for Great Qin, enlighten the people, and nurture talents for Great Qin!”
Han Xu finally revealed his motive.
Ying Zheng's eyes were also fixed on Fu Sheng.
Previously, when Ying Zheng asked Han Xu to come out of the mountain, Han Xu had suggested this method. But at that time, Ying Zheng had said that the Confucians were dissatisfied with him and would not help him.
Han Xu said that he would deal with the Confucians.
Now, the state preceptor said that the time had come.
Then, what would the Confucians choose?
Fu Sheng frowned, but he didn't answer immediately.
Only now did he understand why Han Xu had laid the foundation for all those things.
Letting him know about the God roll first was to intimidate him!
The reason why he mentioned the imperial examinations was to give him hope. After all, once the imperial examinations were held, the Confucians would definitely benefit the most!
The club and sweet dates were all given.
In the end, he revealed his goal, which was to make the Confucians work for Great Qin without paying anything.
If it wasn't for the stick and sweet dates in front of him, Fu Sheng would definitely reject it without thinking.
After all, everyone knew that the Confucians had cut off the inheritance of the culture of other countries because of Ying Zheng's "writing with the same language", and were now opposing Ying Zheng.
So how could he agree to work for Ying Zheng?
He was still doing it for nothing, with no reward at all!
But now, he had to think about it.
Whether it was the deterrence of the God roll.
It was still the benefits of the imperial examination.
Fu Sheng didn't dare to reject her easily.
He pondered for a moment, then looked at Han Xu and said,"Enlightening the world has always been the goal of the Confucians.”
"If you want the Confucians to help Great Qin educate the world, you can, but the prerequisite is…"
He took a deep breath and said," If His Majesty wants to cancel the decree of the 'Book of Common Virtues,' the scholarly faction can take a step back and not let His Majesty apologize to the scholars of the six dynasties. However, the 'Book of Common Virtues' must be canceled.”
Bang!
Ying Zheng put down his teacup heavily, stared at Fu Sheng with a sharp gaze, and sneered,""No one has the right to make me revoke my decision!”
"If your scholarly faction isn't willing to educate the world for me, fine. I'll immediately burn the books and kill all the scholars of your scholarly faction. After that, I'll support a new faction and let them educate the world!”
"Although it will take a long time, compared to disobedient fellows like you, I prefer to personally nurture obedient people!”
Ying Zheng's eyes were filled with dignity.
As he spoke, the air seemed to freeze.
That terrifying aura made even Fu Sheng feel pressured.
Fu Sheng's expression changed slightly. He hurriedly said," Your Majesty, our scholarly faction doesn't want to go against you. We are also thinking for the sake of the people of the world.”
No matter how tough the Confucians were, they were still afraid of Ying Zheng pulling out his saber!
Han Xu sipped his tea slowly and watched the show.
Now, he finally understood why an emperor like Ying Zheng would burn books and bury scholars.
The scholarly faction was truly too stubborn.
He had already laid the foundation for so much, but this Fu Sheng still didn't take a step back.
"I have three questions for the Confucians." Han Xu looked at Fu Sheng and said.”
Seeing Han Xu so serious, Fu Sheng could not help but feel a chill in his heart. He quickly said,"State Preceptor, please speak."
"The first question is, Confucius said that the Confucians are benevolent, but what you are doing now, is there any benevolence?”
Fu Sheng couldn't help but stare. Han Xu seemed to have stepped on his tail. He said,"Dare I ask, Imperial Preceptor, how is the scholarly faction not benevolent?”
"Do you know the consequences if you don't read and write?" Han Xu said lightly.”
Fu Sheng frowned.
Han Xu said," If they don't use the same language, just like what you Confucians say, the people of the six dynasties will still use the languages of the six dynasties and read the books of the six dynasties. They won't think that they are from Qin, and they won't think that other people are their family!”
"If there are differences in thoughts, there will be differences in actions. In the end, the people of the six countries will sooner or later embark on the path of rebellion. At that time, it will be another Spring and Autumn Warring States!”
He looked at Fu Sheng. Fu Sheng's expression had already changed.
Han Xu said," During times of war, the lives of the commoners were very hard. I think you should know how hard it was for them. They did not have enough to eat or warm their clothes. Some people would say that after Great Qin unified the world, there was a great drought for three years. But why don't they say that before Great Qin conquered the world, there was famine every year?”
"At the very least, after Great Qin is unified, the Imperial Court will think of ways to provide disaster relief and help the people survive. However, in a time of war, who will provide disaster relief?”
He stared at Fu Sheng and asked,"Does your scholarly faction know how to do it?" Does your scholarly faction have the ability to save so many people?”
"I…I…"
Fu Sheng opened his mouth, but he couldn't refute for a long time.
"Benevolence?" Han Xu sneered,"You're deliberately helping the future war. Is this the so-called benevolence of your Confucians?"”
Fu Sheng was completely silent.
He lowered his head, and there seemed to be countless struggles in his eyes.
Hearing the Imperial Advisor's words, Ying Zheng felt extremely carefree.
These nerds knew nothing.
As expected, Imperial Preceptor understands me the most!
Ying Zheng picked up his teacup and drank a cup of wine.
It was a pity that he didn't have any wine at the moment. Otherwise, he would definitely not return until he was drunk!
"Second question!"
Han Xu did not give Fu Sheng the chance to think too much.
He continued," Meng said that you take righteousness. You Confucians also call yourself 'righteousness', but do you have righteousness?”
"The Imperial Court is providing an opportunity for your scholarly faction to educate the world and help your scholarly faction realize its ambitions!”
"I'll open the Heavenly Gate for your scholarly Humble Class. From now on, I'll let scholars stand up straight and be upright!”
"His Majesty doesn't care about the stubbornness of your scholarly faction, but not only do you not care about your feelings, but you are still stubborn. Is this what you call 'righteousness'?”
"Inhumane and unjust? Is this what your scholarly faction pursues?”
Fu Sheng couldn't say a word.
He opened his mouth and trembled from Han Xu's scolding.
However, he could not refute it.
Because every word Han Xu said was true.
Ying Zheng wanted to laugh out loud.
Happy!
Truly carefree!
These unreasonable scholars should be scolded to wake them up!
"Third question!"
Han Xu spoke again.
Fu Sheng's entire body trembled. He didn't dare to listen anymore.
Han Xu's every word was like a dagger that pierced through him.
"Why do you scholars study?”
Fu Sheng sat up straight and said,"Of course it's to cultivate one's moral character, govern the family, rule the country, and pacify the world!"”
"What a good self-cultivation, Qi family, rule the country, and pacify the world!”
"Then I want to ask…what stage are you at now?" Han Xu sneered.”
"Self-cultivation? You've even lost benevolence and righteousness, how can you cultivate?”
"The Qi family? Years of war have left less than half of the people alive, and countless families have been destroyed by the war. Now that the world is finally unified, there is no more war, but you insist on leaving behind the seeds of future war. When that time comes, how many families will be burned down because of you? So…what right do you have to talk about the Qi family?”
"As for governing the country and pacifying the world…"
Han Xu stared at Fu Sheng. His eyes were like sharp swords, as if they could pierce through the souls of the surrounding leaders of the scholarly faction.
"Ask yourself, do you think the current you are fit to govern the country and bring peace to the world?”
Fu Sheng suddenly opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood.
His face was pale. He stood up abruptly and took three steps back.
His eyes were wide open, and his pupils were bloodshot. The Righteousness Qi in his entire body was shaking violently, as if it was about to leave him.
Righteousness energy was the foundation of scholarly cultivation, and Righteousness energy…came from the heart!
Now, Han Xu was simply killing his heart!
The third question about the scholarly faction had actually directly shaken the foundation of the leader of the scholarly faction!
Han Xu looked at Fu Sheng and slowly picked up the teacup. He took a sip of tea and said calmly,"You have no right to answer me. Let Xun Zi do it.”
