Chapter 331 The First Emperor who "Doesn't Care"

In the Xinzheng County Governor's Mansion, the official documents to be processed in the entire Han area were piled up on the table with a height of three feet.

You don't need to open it to read the content. Ying Chengxuan's brain hurts from the height alone.Guiguzi is gone, and he needs to deal with all these in person.

He threw off his shoulders and picked up the pen to approve the words. He felt a little regretful. He shouldn't just let Guiguzi go.

"Isn't this going to work again? Why doesn't that old ghost finish processing the official documents before leaving!"

Ying Chengxue had a frowning face, and started to work cursing.

If the three-foot-high bamboo slips on the desk, Ying Chengxun would not be so uncomfortable.With the thickness of the bamboo slips, it would take less than three hours for Ying Chengxue to finish processing.

It's a pity that the three-foot-high piece of paper on the table is as thin as a cicada's wing.

Xianyang, Chang'an Monarch's Mansion.

The first emperor was fishing leisurely, experiencing the joy of the volunteers taking the bait. Now the first emperor has stopped writing memorials.

Minor matters are handled by the state government.

For major matters, the Xiangbang Mansion will give the results of the handling and report them up, and the first emperor will make a decision.

The Great Qin Empire has been operating like this for a month, and there is nothing wrong with it.The first emperor was worried from the beginning, and called Li Si every three days, and Wang Wan entered the palace to ask about politics.So far, I am used to asking the government once every seven days, and spot-checking the memorials handled by the Xiangbang government from time to time.

The first emperor, who has been in a busy state, is very satisfied with his current living conditions. Two concubines in the harem are pregnant again.

The Prime Minister of the Right, Wang Wan, once said euphemistically: Your Majesty, are you letting Lu Buwei too much by doing this?This is a bit inappropriate, his power is almost the same as before.

The first emperor replied directly: No problem, if I can give him the power, I can take it back, don't worry too much.

Qin Guochaotang, the new Prime Minister, Jiang Shang, is the dominant family.

"Meet Your Majesty."

Lu Buwei, whose alias was Jiang Shang, came to the small courtyard where he had been staying for almost ten years with a volume of memorials in his hand.

Not only did he not dare to express his dissatisfaction with the dove occupying the magpie's nest, but he had to bow his head respectfully and be grateful.

Other people's arsenic, my honey.

Lu Buwei, who has monopolized the power since King Zhuangxiang of Qin, didn't want to retire. He wished that the first emperor could live on forever, so that he could use all he had learned in his life.

"Why are you here again?"

The first emperor was dissatisfied and turned back.

Lu Buwei gave a wry smile, and handed over the bamboo slips in his hand.

"Please take a look, Your Majesty."

"Seven days so soon?"

The first emperor reluctantly put down the fishing rod and unfolded the bamboo slips.Check the contents of the bamboo slips very carefully. The bamboo slips record the major events of the Great Qin Empire this week, the handling methods of the Xiangbang Mansion, and the orders to be issued by the Xiangbang Mansion.

"The whole country replaces bamboo slips with paper. Is this an order from you?"

"Yes."

The first emperor fell into deep thought.

The lightness, speed, and ease of writing on paper perfectly surpass bamboo slips.The reason why the first emperor held down the paper to prevent Ying Chengxuan from releasing it was not because paper had any disadvantages, but because paper was too easy to spread.

In the past, bamboo slips were difficult to preserve, and even a piece of bamboo slips could not record many words.Replaced by paper, it is as big as a piece of bamboo slips, and the number of characters that can be carried on paper is five times that of bamboo slips, and it is lighter and easier to carry.

In this way, it will greatly increase the chances of people in the world to be literate and sensible, which is not conducive to the management of the Great Qin Empire.

Most of the people who scolded the first emperor were scholars, and the people in Guizhou, who were not full of food and clothing, couldn't take care of their homes, so they didn't have the time to scold the first emperor.

"Replacing bamboo with paper, and the following article to develop movable type printing, all of which are invalid."

"Your Majesty! Paper has been spread all over the world, and the people know how to make it. We don't use it, but the remnants of the Six Kingdoms use it. Great Qin will lag behind!"

Lu Buwei was in a hurry.

Traveling north and south, following the streets, the Lu Chamber of Commerce who went everywhere cut up the paper and then played it, and scattered it to the world.

Nowadays, it doesn't matter whether it's the land of Qi on the coast of the East China Sea, the land of Zhao near Donghu, or the land of Yan in the extreme north.Not to mention that paper flies into the homes of ordinary people, at least it is definitely not rare.

This situation was already discussed by Ying Chengxuan and Lu Buwei. The two of them cut it first and played it later, just to borrow a fait accompli if the emperor agreed to spread the paper.

"Could it be that your majesty is not promoting paper because of the relationship between the ministers?"

Lu Buwei knelt down on his knees, the old man felt a little humiliated, and said:
"Your Majesty, please put the world's common people first, and don't do it because of my minister..."

"Don't take yourself too seriously, you are not that important."

Ying Zheng didn't finish listening to Lu Buwei's remarks, and said casually:
"The world is still the world without you, Lu Buwei. The country of Qin is still the country of Qin without you, Jiang Xiangbang. Don't think too highly of yourself, I know what you and that Zhuzi are thinking. You can do whatever I say."

Lu Buwei was not reconciled.

Miscellaneous, it is Lu Buwei's lifelong wish to have a world without high and low.

And the premise of all this is to open up the wisdom of the people.Without the wisdom of the people, the head of Guizhou will be enslaved by the nobles forever.

Learning does not necessarily change destiny.

If you don't study, you must not change your destiny.

"Your Majesty, this matter..."

"Is there enough Xiangbang seats?"

Without raising his eyelids, Shi Huang grabbed the fishing rod and threw it in front of Lu Buwei.

"Does Mr. Jiang want to come back to fish?"

The Qin State is the Qin State of the First Emperor, not the Qin State of Lu Buwei.

The first emperor could let Lu Buwei take over the power and have the power to review memorials.The premise is that Lu Buwei wants to approve the memorial according to the wish of the first emperor.

If you, Lu Buwei, want to rule Qin according to your "Lu Shi Chunqiu", then you should come back as soon as possible and continue fishing.

Lu Buwei closed his mouth, stood up silently, and waited quietly for the first emperor to finish reading.

He doesn't love power, but he can't leave Xiangbang's position for the time being.As a Xiangbang who is under one person and above ten thousand people, he can get his hands on many things, and he can occasionally add a few favors to the ruthless Legalists.

Going back to Chang'an Junfu to fish, he can't do anything.He knew the first emperor well, and knew that the powerful emperor in front of him would not be a second time volunteer.

"The new ban on paper: kill the paper maker, kill the paper user, and kill the paper passer."

"only."

"Sent in the world, except for the seven counties in the northwest, except for Han."

"only."

In the next hour, Emperor Shihuang asked about other government orders on the bamboo slips, and learned about Qin's situation from Lu Buwei.After letting Lu Buwei express his opinion, think calmly, and then make a final decision.

After finishing the matter, Emperor Shihuang threw the bamboo slips that could determine the fate of the world to Lu Buwei, picked up the fishing rod and threw it into the water lightly.Watching the fish float up and down, with the breeze blowing, I feel at ease.

"Why haven't you left yet?"

The first emperor turned his head and said to Lu Buwei, who still hadn't left, that he thought Lu Buwei was an eyesore.The first emperor can let go of his personal grievances and let Lu Buwei want to help, but it doesn't mean that he has no memory of the changes in Qinian Palace many years ago.

"Recently, Gan Shangqing often holds banquets, and there are no less than a hundred people joining each time."

"You don't need to report this kind of trivial matter to me. If he likes to have a banquet, he can have a banquet. If you like, you can also have a banquet."

"The minister is saying that Gan Shangqing's frequent gatherings of family members may cause disaster."

"I said, if you find it difficult to deal with it, you can also win people's hearts. Qin Chen, who is not from a family, is right with your former genius disciple."

The first emperor was indifferent and authentic.

The first emperor never cared about forming cliques.

In the Qin army, the Meng family occupied half of the country, and the first emperor never took care of it.Wang Jian led Qin's 60 troops to the Chu State, accounting for 80.00% of Qin's troops, and the First Emperor did not doubt it.

Even Shi Huang, a military general who was able to rebel and held a gun, took a laissez-faire attitude.The first emperor didn't care much about the civil servants holding the pen.

"All Xunzi's disciples entered Xianyang, the skilled ones entered the court as officials, and the mediocre ones went out to govern. Some positions in some aristocratic families have been replaced by Xunzi's disciples. Now Chang'an Junfu still has many Xunzi's disciples. This action makes the Xianyang family uneasy. In my opinion, Xunzi disciples should be dismissed to reassure the hearts of all the aristocratic families."

A group of small families headed by the Baili family were completely eliminated.

Although he still has a title, his resignation was approved, and he lost his official position and was replaced by Xunzi's disciples.

After regretting resubmitting the memorial requesting the reinstatement of officials and being rejected by Emperor Shihuang himself, it was only a matter of time before the demise of these small aristocratic families.

Rootless water is hard to continue, they can only be swallowed up.

These speculators, headed by the Baili family who were abandoned by Gan Luo, and who abandoned Gan Luo's leadership, ended up miserable, so miserable that all the great families in Xianyang had lingering fears.

There was an endless stream of people at the gate of the Chang'an Monarch's Mansion, all of them were disciples of Xunzi, and the threshold was kicked down seven times.These speculators can be replaced today, and they will be replaced in the future.

People in Xianyang are panicking recently. Although Lu Buwei has no bad impression of these aristocratic families, for the stability of Qin State, he still has to appease these aristocratic families who occupy 80.00% of the official positions in Guanzhong.

There are indeed many disciples of Xunzi, enough to knock out a few more big families.But there is still a long way to go to completely replace the aristocratic family.

"No need."

"If all the aristocratic families submit their resignations..."

"They dare not."

"..."

Lu Buwei felt that Emperor Shihuang was a little arrogant.

Once all the aristocratic families submitted their resignations, Lu Buwei couldn't imagine how the first emperor could break the situation.Rather than being forced to make concessions at that time, it is better to stabilize the heart of the family now.

"Build a Xianyang school next to the doctor's office, and place all the students of Guigu and Xunzi in it."

The sudden words of the first emperor made Lu Buwei instantly confused.

Here he let go of his prejudices and blindly begged to appease the aristocratic family, the Xianyang Academy built by the first emperor?Isn't this adding fuel to the fire?This is equivalent to clearly telling the entire family that if you don't want to do it, some people will do it.

"Your Majesty, this..."

"Go ahead."

"……only."

Lu Buwei resigned with deep worry.

Although they all monopolize power, the feeling of serving the first emperor is completely different from that of serving King Qin Zhuangxiang. Lu Buwei misses the time when he was a prime minister for King Qin Zhuangxiang.

One day later, the order was sent to Xianyang.

Several large houses in Xianyang City have started construction, and the scale is larger than all government houses.Xianyang has never had a government institution that can accommodate more than [-] people, and Xianyang Academy is the first.

The already worried aristocratic family became even more worried. Under Gan Luo's order, the new building held a banquet again.

This time, as usual, there are still beauties like clouds, bells ringing and feasting, no matter how luxurious they are, how they show their difference from those untouchables.

But this time, the beauties were hardly played, and the wine and meat were hardly eaten, so everyone was in a bad mood.

The Xianyang Academy, which started construction, is a mountain that weighs heavily on the hearts of all the aristocratic families.

As long as the mountain has not been moved, no one is in the mood to play around.If you continue to play around, you will play around like Baili's family, and you will die.

"What are you all doing with frowning faces?"

Gan Luo sat at the head, looking very good. He has been out of Xianyang Prison for a long time.

The three great families of Mengxibai who were able to restrain Ganluo were defeated by Yingcheng.The Baobai family who strongly supported Gan Luo was raptured for meritorious service, while the Baili family who betrayed Gan Luo was about to perish.

After this series of combined punches, Gan Luo's reputation among the aristocratic families reached an extremely high point, much higher than before entering Xianyang Prison.

The current Gan family is well-deserved to be the dominant family, which has surpassed the category of a large family and is in the only family.

If we lose our horses, we can't know what a blessing is.

Gan Luo, who has deliberately forgotten some unhappy things, has been very proud recently.The prosperity of the Gan family is Gan Luo's vision.

Gan Luo gave a look.

The beauty next to her was winking, fast, elegant, and bowed to pour the wine.The gauze on his body has no effect on his body, it only has the effect of increasing attack speed.

Gan Luo smiled and picked up the wine bottle, holding it high.

"My lords, drink this bottle to the brim!"

Most of the patriarchs with bad complexions picked up the wine bottles with a forced smile, and drank the wine with Gan Luo.

Gang Chengjun, Cai Zecou, ​​was not conspicuous at all among this group of patriarchs, and he also drank all the fine wine in the wine bottle.

"Why are you so sad? But what happened recently?"

Gan Luo asked knowingly.

"Shangqing, this Xianyang Academy is going to destroy the foundation of my family, how can we not worry about it?"

"Your Majesty has recently ignored political affairs and handed over all matters to Jiang Shang. This must be Jiang Shang's fault."

"That's it. When Jiang Shang saw that we were outnumbered, he flattered and flattered His Majesty to build a Xianyang Academy. Since ancient times, our Great Qin has built a country by war. Where do we need an academy?"

"Whether His Majesty knows about this matter or not, Shangqing, why don't you take me into the palace to meet the saint?"

"..."

Everyone was chattering, and Gan Luo listened quietly.

The old man Cai Ze also joined the ranks of speech, neither too excited nor too calm, quite satisfactory.

As the voice gradually became louder and lasted longer, Gan Luo's face became a little ugly.

When someone mentioned that they would submit their resignation collectively as a protest, Gan Luo suddenly slapped the table and said angrily:
"You guys are not idiots, is Bendangluo an idiot?"

He pointed at the group of patriarchs who kept saying that Jiang Shang personally did this.

"This is not Xianyang Palace, everyone is on the same line, don't play those tricks. Without His Majesty's permission, who dares to build a school in Xianyang? Who can take His Majesty's power? Idiot!"

Then point to those who are going to take drastic actions, such as rushing into the palace to meet a fight, and submitting their resignations.

"Do you still think that there are not enough people who died? Meng Xibai's death can't alert you? The demise of Baili's family can't scare you? If you want to seek death, please feel free, don't hold me Gan Luo Together, okay?"

Gan Luo is not tall, but everyone is sitting, but he stands above them all.

"I was wrong for waiting, Shangqing, don't be angry."
