Chapter 139
General Zhang Han Han's hand holding the teacup shook inadvertently, and the tea almost spilled out.
Good guy, if this question isn't answered correctly, will His Majesty immediately turn into a tyrant?
Ying Ying Zi Ye smiled faintly: "Father Emperor, you swept across the six states, kind and benevolent, unwilling to slaughter too much; as long as they surrender, you don't kill."
"The aristocrats of today, a large part of them were preserved in this way; this is kindness."
"As for the tyrant, that is even more nonsense; this is just those scholars and the remnants of the six states maliciously slandering you."
"And those common people who don't know how to read and write hear too much, and by hearsay, even a chicken will be passed on as a cow."
Ying Ying Zi Ye talked eloquently, and Ying Zheng and General Zhang Han Han nodded continuously; this is no problem, it is indeed the case.
Unfortunately, there are too few scholars in the world; they listen to whatever the scholars say, just not knowing right from wrong.
Ying Ying Zi Ye thought of the group of poems created by Li Bai.
Feeling something, he recited it.
"The King of Qin swept across the six states, how majestic his tiger gaze is! Waving his sword to decide the floating clouds, the princes all came from the west."
"The clear judgment comes from heaven, the great strategy drives the crowd of talents, collecting weapons to cast golden men, Hangu Pass opens to the east."
"Inscribing merits on Kuaiji Ridge, looking far from Langya Terrace, this is a great achievement, an emperor through the ages!"
Reciting to this point, Ying Ying Zi Ye stopped; if he continued, Brother Zheng would probably be furious.
Ying Zheng recited this poem several times in his mind and couldn't help but slap his thigh and call it good.
"The King of Qin swept across the six states, how majestic his tiger gaze is! Waving his sword to decide the floating clouds, the princes all came from the west."
"The clear judgment comes from heaven, the great strategy drives the crowd of talents, collecting weapons to cast golden men, Hangu Pass opens to the east."
"Inscribing merits on Kuaiji Ridge, looking far from Langya Terrace."
Emperor through the ages?
Ying Zheng's eyes flashed with essence; he liked this title.
"Wonderful wonderful wonderful!"
"Is there more after this poem? Why don't you continue reciting?"
Ying Zheng looked at Ying Ying Zi Ye suspiciously.
Ying Ying Zi Ye took a sip of tea: smiled: "No more, this is just my feeling."
Ying Zheng picked up the Xuan paper on the side and wrote down these poems.
After writing, he read it carefully several times.
And General Zhang Han Han also secretly gave a thumbs up; the Ninth Prince is learned and talented, and can make up poems casually.
Such a great achievement is indeed worthy of being called an emperor through the ages!
Describing His Majesty like this is indeed reasonable!
"Father Emperor, now there is a strategy to break the embarrassing situation of aristocrats monopolizing reading."
Ying Ying Zi Ye quickly changed the subject; this aspect cannot be investigated deeply.
Longing for immortality is the ultimate dream that Brother Zheng has been pursuing all his life.
He was afraid that if he investigated deeply, Brother Zheng would have this thought again, which would be bad.
"Oh, what good strategy do you have? Tell me about it."
Ying Zheng was curious; recently his mind was on the Ultimate Life-Nourishing Technique, and he didn't pay much attention to things in the court.
Only the Black Ice Terrace often sent various news to him here.
It is equivalent to handing over the state affairs to Ying Ying Zi Ye to handle.
Now that he heard there was a good strategy to change the situation of few scholars, he also wanted to listen.
In Great Qin, most scholars are the various schools of thought and those aristocrats.
It is difficult for common people to read; they only ask for food and clothing.
If there is a chance to change this situation, Great Qin will definitely take on a new look in the future.
"Now the treasury is full, I want to build academies in every county of Great Qin, so that more people can read."
"In this way, we can completely break the embarrassing situation where only aristocrats can read."
"Another point is to hold the imperial examination system; as long as there are talented people, they can come to the court to be officials, which can break the official recommendation system."
"Before, there might have been no way, but now with the appearance of Xuan paper, it happens to follow the trend, and everyone has books to read!"
Ying Ying Zi Ye knows that in Great Qin, wanting to be an official is difficult and easy.
If you want to be an official, you must find an official to write a recommendation letter; otherwise, you can't be an official.
But finding someone to write a recommendation letter requires extensive connections and money.
Once the imperial examination system is implemented, this recommendation system can be broken, and the monopoly of court officials forming cliques can be broken.
But these things cannot be completed all at once; it needs to be done step by step.
And he doesn't have that much time to do this; he can only arrange for people below to do it.
Now it's just to say hello to Brother Zheng first, so as not to be difficult to implement this plan later.
He wants to build Great Qin into an iron barrel, so he must reform to make Great Qin better!
