Xianyang Palace, Orchid Pool Hall.
After Ying Zheng finished dealing with the memorials sent by Lord Chang Ping and Feng Quji, he stood up and went to the backyard.
Concubine Yan sat beside the pool, her fair feet swimming back and forth in the pool, looking very happy.
"Done?"
Concubine Yan looked at Ying Zheng with a gloating expression.
Ying Zheng's daily routine was observed by her.
There were twenty-four hours in a day. Other than eating and sleeping, it would take twelve hours to deal with official business.
This was simply not something a human could do.
Even though Ying Zheng was powerful and unrivaled in the world, he still felt exhausted.
"I'm done."
Ying Zheng sighed and sat down in the pavilion, not paying any attention to Concubine Yan's teasing.
This little girl is becoming more and more impudent in front of me.
Recently, he had also felt a little annoyed.
Drunk on the knees of a beauty, awake in charge of the world's power.
It sounded like a wonderful thing.
Unfortunately, in reality, as the King of Qin, what he faced every day was mostly the memorials submitted by the civil and military officials.
With Xu Ling as the center, the Ministry of Agriculture was established, and with Gongshu Chou as the center, the Great Qin Academy of Science was established. There was also the construction of the Great Qin Empire's Level 4 Academy.
He thought back to the rumors in his previous life about the First Emperor dying from exhaustion.
Ying Zheng felt that he needed to make some changes.
At the very least, he couldn't waste his time on useless memorials.
Decentralization was not only an incentive to the people below, but it could also free up his own time. It was killing two birds with one stone.
In this aspect, the various systems of the Ming Dynasty were very good.
However, even though he had changed, he couldn't take too big a step. Otherwise, it would be very easy for him to become indifferent.
Ying Zheng recalled the official system of the Ming Dynasty in his memory, and gradually, he had a plan in mind.
"Ta Ta…"
Suddenly, a Black Ice Guard walked over and handed Ying Zheng a wax pill, saying,
"King, Lord Dunrou has sent news.”
Ying Zheng crushed the wax pill, took out the white paper and opened it.
Soon, Ying Zheng's eyes lit up.
"Very good. I already know about Dunrou's plan. Let him begin.”
"As for Meng Wu, I will personally oversee him so that he can rest assured.”
"This subordinate will obey." The Black Ice Guard cupped his hands and left.
"Men."
An inner servant came out and respectfully stood under the pavilion.
"Your Majesty."
"Pass on my orders to Feng Quji and Lord Changping. I will be in seclusion for a period of time. I will deal with all the memorials first.”Ying Zheng said.
"Yes." The chamberlain responded and retreated.
"If you want to go to the border, what about the various academies?”
Concubine Yan put on her shoes, walked to Ying Zheng's side and asked.
She had always seen how much importance Ying Zheng placed on this plan, and he had even forced the Confucians, Mohism, and other philosophers to complete it.
Now, the Daoists, Confucians, Physicians, and Mohists had all given clear replies, agreeing to help Great Qin complete this task.
Without Ying Zheng, this plan would not be easy to carry out.
"Aren't you here? You've seen my plans for this matter, so just follow them.”
"Later, I will issue a royal order to make you a princess consort and lead the five-year education plan of the Great Qin Empire's fourth-tier academies.”
"I have placed all the money and food in the palace treasury.”
"As a member of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, it'll be easier for you to communicate with each other.”
Ying Zheng looked at Concubine Yan and said smilingly.
"Humph." Looking at Ying Zheng's smug face, Lady Yan snorted, but did not refute him.
She was very touched by Ying Zheng's trust in her.
"Right, you have to remember the main point of this matter. When compiling teaching materials, you must let the Confucian, Mohist, and other schools of thought participate.”
"The textbooks for primary and county schools only compile basic knowledge about the world. No one is allowed to spread their own theories.”
"Only the county school and the Imperial College allow the students to come into contact with the essence of hundreds of schools and freely choose the direction of their research.”
Ying Zheng said to Concubine Yan.
He didn't want to cut off the essence of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, but he also didn't want these schools to become a channel for the Hundred Schools of Philosophy to spread their faith.
According to his rules, a fourth-level academy would last three years for each level.
Even if Great Qin's children started school at the age of five, by the time they graduated, they would already be 11 or 12 years old.
The ancients matured early, and there were many people who got married at the age of twelve.
At this time, people had almost established their own outlook on life and values. There was no problem for them to choose.
Of course, even so, he still could not avoid the petty tricks of the Hundred Schools of Philosophy, and Ying Zheng naturally had other ways to deal with it.
After all, no matter which school of thought it was, when it came to influence in the world, it depended on the right to speak in the imperial court.
As long as Ying Zheng firmly grasped the conditions for selecting officials, the Hundred Schools of Thought would have no choice but to submit.
People always sought advantages and avoided disadvantages.
In this period, wasn't the purpose of ten years of hardship to be an official?
"I understand." Lady Yan nodded solemnly.
This was the first major task she had done for Ying Zheng, and she could not afford to make any mistakes.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng smiled. With a thought, the black dragon of national fate appeared and carried him up to the Nine Heavens, heading towards the border between Qin and Han.
On the other side, Lord Chang Ping and Feng Quji, who had received King Ying Zheng's order, were a little confused.
His Majesty was going into seclusion?
Shaking their heads, they didn't think too much about it.
……
At the border.
Meng Wu sat in the main tent of the central army and asked the generals about military affairs as usual. After confirming that there were no mistakes, he waved his hand to dismiss them.
Then, Meng Wu stood up and took off his heavy armor.
"General Meng Wu."
Suddenly, Ying Zheng's voice rang out from behind.
Meng Yu was startled, he turned around and saw that it was really Ying Zheng.
Why is the king here?
"Greetings, King."
Meng Wu was surprised, but his movements were not slow. He immediately stepped forward and bowed to Ying Zheng.
"General, there's no need to be so polite."
Ying Zheng stretched out his hand and pulled Meng Wu up with a gentle force.
"General, to make a long story short, I came here this time to destroy Han.”
"Destroy Han?"
Meng Wu frowned, cupped his hands towards Ying Zheng and said,
"Your Majesty, this time the army is in a hurry and the country is not strong. We only brought 300,000 dan of grain, which is only enough for one and a half months.”
"Korea's 100,000 soldiers might not be as strong as Great Qin's soldiers, but they should be able to defend.”
"One and a half months might not be enough to destroy Han.”Meng Wu said tactfully.
In fact, Meng Wu knew very well that it would be good enough if they could take down the pass in front of them, let alone destroy Han.
However, facing Ying Zheng, who was becoming more and more dignified, he did not dare to be too disobedient, so he could only try to persuade him tactfully.
"General, don't worry. I'm here for the rations.”
"As for destroying Korea, please take a look, General."
Ying Zheng smiled faintly and handed the message that Dunrou had sent over to Meng Wu.
"This…is actually possible?"
"Your Majesty, is this true?"
Meng Wu took a quick glance and was overjoyed. He quickly asked Ying Zheng,
"Of course. Would I lie to you about military matters?”Ying Zheng said unhappily.
"No, no, no. This lowly official did not mean that.”
"Your Majesty, if Dunruo's plan works, the day of the destruction of Korea is right in front of us.”Meng Wu said excitedly.
"So, you should start preparing. When news of Dunrou arrives, I will inform you.”
"This lowly subject accepts your orders."
Meng Wu cupped his hands and bowed. He walked out of the tent excitedly and began to prepare for the great battle.
"Bai Yifei…"
Ying Zheng looked at the note on the table with a subtle expression. He burst out his true energy and crushed the note in an instant.
