But now, it seemed that he had hoped for too much.
After a long time, the First Emperor sighed and said,""Fusu, as Zhen's eldest son, you should know that Zhen has always valued you.”
"It's a pity that you didn't inherit even a ten-thousandth of my domineering and bold character!!!”
"The so-called benevolence is just a beautification of your weakness. How can you bear the great cause of this country like this?”
At this point, if it were anyone else, they might have lowered their heads and admitted their mistakes.
However, the other party was Fu Su.
Even though his eyes were bloodshot, he was still begging for mercy on behalf of his master.
" Father, I don't think that kindness is weakness. Master once said that in life, one should be benevolent, kind, polite, wise, and trustworthy..."
"Enough!"
The First Emperor's eyes narrowed, and a trace of anger flashed past his eyes.
All these years, after Fu Su had been baptized by Confucianism, it was as if he had been brainwashed. He firmly believed in the words of those old Lu Confucians.
Right now, he had even formed a group of scholars and remnants of the Six Nations as his main supporters.
Especially his master, Chunyu Yue, who had instigated Fu Su to go against him time and time again, trying to cause a conflict between the Confucians and Legalists.
And the ideas and decisions they proposed could be said to be completely contrary to Qin Shi Huang's way of governing the country and the ideology of the Legalism school.
It had to be said that Great Qin had been represented by Legalism, and it had been able to reach where it was today.
Moreover, his way of governing the country was the foundation of Great Qin.
In fact, how could a group of weak Confucian scholars casually discuss and modify it?
And those remnants of the Six Nations, they were just a bunch of rats hiding in the stinking sewers. How dare they be so unscrupulous?
The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his patrol last year had not intimidated those people. Otherwise, how could Fu Su, who had just returned from Longxi, dare to mention such a sensitive topic in front of him?
He didn't believe that there was no one behind Fu Su's back.
Hearing Fu Su's words, Shi Huang was really annoyed.
Now, Great Qin had only been unified for a year, and there were countless internal and external problems. The remnants of the Six Dynasties and the Confucians still dared to add oil to the fire. It could be said that Great Qin's situation was not optimistic.
As such, the most important thing for Great Qin now was to unify their governing ideals.
Although the Confucians were a bunch of weak scholars, they didn't have the ability to rebel.
However, they could use their mouths and thoughts to change the minds of the people around them, thus interfering with the First Emperor's decisions on many national affairs.
Since Shang Yang's reform hundreds of years ago, the Great Qin Empire's Legalism had been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.
Of course, this did not mean that Great Qin would only respect Legalism.
In fact, Qin Shi Huang did not hate the Confucians from the very beginning. Instead, he valued them greatly. He only wanted to use the power in his hands to unify money, carriages, measurement, and thinking.
Moreover, the first emperor's attitude towards Confucianism was completely different from that of Legalism and Mohism.
While he attacked those Confucian scholars who had their own independent thoughts in society, he also vigorously established the Doctorate Institute. The so-called Doctorate Institute was the senior advisor group of Qin Shihuang, and their positions were called doctors.
Not only could these people accept disciples, but they could also hold lectures, but the premise was that they had to be within the scope of the official regulations.
But from this, it could be seen that the first emperor had some expectations for the Confucian scholars.
However, ever since Chunyu Yue became Fu Su's master and guided Fu Su's teachings to its current state, it was hard for him not to be angry.
Therefore, although he did not reject other schools of thought, he definitely could not put the cart before the horse like what Fu Su had said, to preserve Confucianism with the law!
However, Fu Su was resolute and brave. To a certain extent, he was not a person without political foresight.
Thus, as long as the Confucian school and the enfeoffment system were mentioned, his mouth would open up like a chatterbox.
Not only did he speak like a piece of paper, but he was also eloquent.
Even though he noticed that the First Emperor's expression wasn't very good, he still insisted on continuing.
"Father, the world is peaceful now. You should not rule the world like before. You should stop killing with killing and rule the world with torture. It is impossible for the world to believe in such tyrannical actions!”
"Now that the world is united, between your son and me, we should use the Confucian ideology as the root of governing the country. Only benevolence and tolerance can obtain the love and support of the people!”
"As for those heavy punishments and cruel officials and the country, it's a hundred harms and no benefits!”
"Also, a large part of the reason why the old subordinates of the six countries are unwilling to submit to Great Qin is because of this. If we want to change their minds and willingly submit to Great Qin, we should abolish the counties and implement the system of enfeoffment."
Hearing this, let alone the First Emperor, even the servants around him couldn't help but gasp.
Fortunately, Ying Wei was not here. Otherwise, he would have opened Fu Su's brain to see what was inside.
The First Emperor's displeasure was already so obvious, yet he was still able to disregard everything else and say all those infuriating remarks.
As expected, Fu Su was a one-track-minded person.
Putting aside the fact that Great Qin should rule the country with laws, it should rule the country with Confucianism.
Just the identity of the First Emperor.
In this world, who didn't know that Qin Shi Huang was the ruler of the world, the one and only existence in the Great Qin?
Fu Su knew that he believed in Legalism, but he still stood on the perspective of Confucianism and brazenly refuted the First Emperor. He brought up the past and said that he wanted to abolish the county system and reopen the enfeoffment system.
Wasn't this clearly slapping Qin Shi Huang in the face and blatantly trying to overthrow Great Qin's national system?
This Fu Su, after staying in Longxi for a year, seemed to be completely useless!
This time, Qin Shi Huang was truly enraged.
A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and his tone turned cold.
"Fusu, you have disappointed Zhen.”
"There are no rules. You said that respecting Confucianism and implementing a benevolent government is the correct path for Great Qin, but have you ever thought that being kind to the enemy is being cruel to yourself?”
"After the implementation of the benevolent government, how many people do you think will still dig canals and build military defenses at the border to resist the resistance of the barbarians?”
"From today onwards, scram back to your residence. Without being summoned, you are not allowed to enter the palace!”
Seeing that Shi Huang's anger was about to explode, Fu Su, who had wanted to say something, immediately shut his mouth. Then, he bowed to Shi Huang quietly and turned to leave.
This scene made Qin Shi Huang's face turn even colder.
If the other party could continue to argue with reason, he might even think highly of that fellow.
