At this moment, Yan Dan only needed to compare what Ying Chen had done in less than four months to the higher-ups of the Mo Family who were struggling to survive but still thought highly of themselves and did not put the commoners in their eyes.
At this moment, Yan Dan felt hopeless and hopeless.
However, even a giant like Yan Dan could not say such words in front of so many people!
In the end, if even he, the giant of the Mo family, was not optimistic about the great cause of rebelling against Qin, how could he make others believe in this matter?
The reaction of the Confucians and Mohism was a microcosm of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy's reaction to Ying Chen's promotion of Qu Yuanli and his recent actions!
Farmers, doctors…and so on.
They found that at this point, they no longer recognized Ying Chen and Great Qin.
However, the natural opposition between their positions and interests made them unable to accept everything objectively.
Just like how the Mo Family scoffed at Ying Chen's Qu Yuan Li, the farmers only attributed the corn, sweet potatoes, and potatoes brought by Ying Chen to Ying Chen's luck.
After all, the Hundred Schools of Philosophy were all descendants of the aristocrats of the Six Nations.
Actually, after thinking about it carefully, he could understand!
In this era where knowledge was not developed and a book was enough to support a family, one had to be at least a noble to be able to read!
The Hundred Schools of Philosophy had dominated the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, preaching to the world, relying on knowledge.
Since you want to teach others knowledge, you should at least be literate, right?
During the Spring and Autumn Period, when knowledge could only be recorded in bamboo slips, it was unusual for the disciples of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy to not be nobles.
And because these descendants of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy were all nobles, most of them were definitely nobles from the original six states!
Now that these people had joined the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, it was easy to explain why the Hundred Schools of Philosophy would naturally oppose Great Qin.
The Mo family's giant, Yan Dan, was the Crown Prince of Yan Country!
There was also Chen Sheng and Wu Guang, who were also the commanders of the farming clan.
Han Xin was a descendant of Han Country's nobility.
Xiang Yu was the descendant of Xiang Yan, the general of Chu State.
Look, were these people originally nobles of the Six Nations?
The most unfortunate thing was that they actually succeeded in the end.
Right, there was also Liu Bang!
Liu Bang was once Zhang Er's hanger-on, and Zhang Er was once the hanger-on of Lord Xinling, the fourth son of the Warring States Period!
How was it? This relationship was deeply intertwined!
As such, even though Great Qin had unified the world and was incredibly powerful, it did not have as much control over the regions as one might imagine.
The reason why Ying Zheng had repeatedly patrolled the east was because he wanted to use this method to bring Great Qin's prestige to the four seas and flatten all the unstable places!
But the result?
As long as Qin Shi Huang didn't die, the world wouldn't fall into chaos!
Qin Shi Huang died and the land was divided.
As the first Dynasty to unify the six countries, Great Qin was naturally great!
However, in this world, being first often meant that one would suffer the greatest backlash!
This was Great Qin's tragedy and helplessness!
Therefore, just as Ying Chen's name spread throughout the world, under the guidance of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, another undercurrent began to surge!
In an instant, three rumors spread throughout the world!
Firstly, the First Emperor Ying Zheng was actually the son of Lu Buwei, the former Prime Minister of the Great Qin Dynasty. Back then, Lu Buwei and Lady Zhao plotted against each other, and then deceived everyone. When Ying Zichu took Lady Zhao in, Lady Zhao was already pregnant!
Secondly, Crown Prince Ying Chen was the son of Chun Shenjun of Chu State. When Chun Shenjun Huang Xie died, he let his henchmen escape with a maid who was pregnant at that time, and this maid was coincidentally taken into the harem by Ying Zheng.
Therefore, Ying Zheng had raised a son for Chun Shenjun for nothing.
Thirdly, Crown Prince Ying Chen was the hope of all the people in the world. He was kind and benevolent. Now, all the people in the world were looking forward to his ascension to the throne as soon as possible. If Ying Zheng continued to rule, the Great Qin Empire would fall!
It had to be said that these three rumors were extremely vicious!
No matter what era it was, bloodlines were something that could not be mixed up!
And rumors were often the easiest to spread.
Coincidentally, it was true that Ying Zheng's mother, Lady Zhao, was a promiscuous woman who had almost deposed Ying Zheng's throne.
It was also true that Mistress Zhao was Lu Buwei's maid in the beginning!
Ying Chen's mother was indeed Chun Shenjun's maid in the beginning.
Of course, Ying Chen definitely wasn't Huang Xie's posthumous son. This was certain.
When Huang Xie died, Ying Chen had to wait a few years before he was born!
Could it be that Huang Xie could come back to life?
However, the harm of rumors was that most people did not care if they were credible or not.
Surprise, excitement, and boldness were enough!
The last rumor was truly vicious.
This was a blatant attempt to sow discord between Ying Chen and Ying Zheng!
Here, another crucial problem appeared!
It was the kind of fear and suspicion that an Emperor who was gradually aging and no longer glorious would have when facing a Crown Prince who was in the prime of his life and had high prestige!
Since ancient times, many father and son of the Tian family had drawn their swords against each other because of this!
Now, the conflict between Ying Chen and Ying Zheng, which could have been covered up, was completely exposed along with these three rumors.
What was even more terrifying was that the people of Great Qin, even the people of Guanzhong, really felt that Ying Chen being the Emperor was more beneficial to them than Ying Zheng being the Emperor.
Ying Zheng was powerful, overbearing, and had swept across the six dynasties, unifying the world. He had indeed brought endless pride and honor to the people of Old Qin!
However, this pride and honor were exchanged for by the blood of countless relatives.
In the end, even after the world was unified, their days did not seem to be much better.
Survival was still so difficult!
And the appearance of Crown Prince Ying Chen had only been seen for four months, yet it had already brought about an earth-shattering change in their lives!
With more food, farming became easier.
To the ordinary people, this was simply a great crown prince!
Thus, regarding the previous matter of Crown Prince Ying Chen being Chun Shenjun's posthumous son, these commoners didn't care.
However, they were very concerned about the fact that Ying Chen could become the Emperor!
