Ying Zheng could not wait to teach all the officials a lesson, to make them think that the Emperor would not be able to fight against them!
Mrs. Zhen, oh, Royal Concubine Zhen, stood up and left obediently. At the same time, she expressed her gratitude for the title.
Tsk! Finally, my mother has been given a nice title. What madam is so ugly!
But why was Brother Zheng so generous?
You want us to leave as soon as we arrive? Do you think you can fool us?
But Brother Zheng didn't do anything out of line. Did I misjudge him?
Hearing Ying Zhan's inner voice, Ying Zheng's mouth twitched," You brat, you're still pretending to be obedient after getting a bargain! I'm not that kind of person!
However, he did not have the time to argue with this kid now. He wanted to go out and show his might.
If the Ancestral Dragon didn't show his might, did these civil and military officials think he was a little kitten?
Ying Zheng excitedly walked towards the dragon throne, his footsteps loud and clear, causing the hearts of all the officials below to palpitate.
At this moment, the hall was filled with wails.
Just now, Ying Zheng had asked them to do push-ups, but most of them could not do it, so they just pretended to be dead.
When they saw Ying Zheng, they all cried out in tears.
"Your Majesty, this old minister is already so old.”
"Your Majesty, please pity this old minister. This old minister's kidneys are not good to begin with. This time, when I go back, I will be laughed at by my wife!”
"Your Majesty, it's not that we don't want to think of a way, but we really can't think of a good way!”
"Your Majesty, we've thought about it, but it's not very good. But we've tried our best!”
"Your Majesty, please forgive our incompetence!”
Everyone pretended to be pitiful to gain sympathy. At this moment, they were all on the same side. There was no longer any Li Si faction or anti-Li Si faction. They only wanted to tide over the difficulties together.
Meng Yi braced himself and handed over a piece of cloth."Your Majesty, this is the solution we can think of for the time being. Please take a look.”
Begging for mercy was begging for mercy. They didn't want the recommendation system to be abolished, but they still had to take care of the First Emperor's face. They still had to express their gratitude.
Of course, these so-called methods were all new. At most, they would only make a small change, or a big change on the surface. Even the name would be changed, but it would still be a new solution.
It was difficult for them to come up with a countermeasure in such a short period of time.
Ying Zheng took it over, and with just a glance, the cloth in his hand turned into ashes.
The officials below immediately fell silent, but this was within their expectations. With the intelligence of the First Emperor, he could naturally see that none of these methods were what the First Emperor wanted.
Ying Zheng looked down at the officials and said,"Is this how you treat me?" I trust you so much, and this is how you repay me? Li Si, Meng Yi, Feng Quji, Wang Ben…Are you worthy of my trust?”
"Do you really think that you can fool me alone?”
The few people who were named immediately knelt down and begged for forgiveness. They were also in a difficult position, but they were unwilling to change the recommendation system for their own interests. Moreover, they really did not think of any good ideas.
They were basically cursing those who wanted to take down Li Si. Wasn't this dragging everyone down with them?
He had to settle the score with these people later. Otherwise, he would have suffered all the anger today for nothing.
Now that they were so " pious " and kneeling down in fear and trepidation, the First Emperor was more than enough.
They all felt that no matter how much the First Emperor tried, it would be useless. In the end, the recommendation system was still maintained.
Ying Zheng knew what these ministers were thinking. He wanted to see the expressions on their faces!
His eyes were burning and his voice was like a bell.
"From today onwards, Great Qin will no longer have a recommendation system!”
"In the future, Great Qin's officials will be selected through the Imperial Examination. Only those with outstanding results will be hired!”
"The Black Ice Platform is in charge of keeping the imperial examination confidential and supervising it. Anyone who dares to violate the rules will be sentenced to death!”
"When the results of the imperial examinations are out, I will select a portion of the people for the court examinations and personally interview them. Once those whose talents and results are not compatible are found, they will be sent to the imperial prison and the officials involved will be sent to build the Great Wall.”
The domineering and dignified words echoed in the minds of the officials, and everyone was shocked and dumbfounded!
They had never thought that the First Emperor would actually come up with a flawless plan!
In the imperial examination, one could obtain an official rank based on one's strength. Those incompetent people who wanted to rely on their connections to be recommended as officials could forget about it in the future!
Moreover, if someone wanted to cheat, they would be exposed by the court examinations and would lose their head!
The officials all sucked in a breath of cold air. They knew that the recommendation system was really going to be swept into the trash can of history!
They were heartbroken. The recommendation system could give them huge benefits, but it would never happen again.
Instantly, those who wanted to take down Li Si in the first place were so regretful that they beat their chests and stamped their feet. Not only did they not take down Li Si, but they had also personally buried their path to wealth.
Moreover, this was an opportunity that they had given to the Emperor. They really regretted it!
They thought that as long as they didn't do anything, the First Emperor could only put on an act.
They had never thought that the First Emperor would think of such a wonderful method. Coupled with the bold move of opening up the private sector a few days ago, they felt that the First Emperor in front of them seemed very unfamiliar!
No, there was also the matter of killing Xu Fu. The First Emperor had shocked them again and again in the past few days!
At this moment, they were wondering what had happened to the First Emperor.
Li Si was the most terrified. He didn't believe that the First Emperor had thought of all this himself.
He felt that…His Majesty the Emperor must have someone outside!
Instantly, his heart turned cold. The Emperor had such an awesome strategist. His position as Prime Minister was about to be lost!
(Votes support!)
