Chapter 953: Eastern Inspection

Time flies. Since that day in the main hall of the Xianyang Palace, the "Hall of Four Seas Unification," Seeing Ying Zheng held a banquet for Meng Tian to celebrate his triumphant return, ennobled him as the "Marquis of Jiuyuan," and took that opportunity to read the second imperial edict, intending to perform the Fengshan sacrifice, two months have passed.

During these two months, the Confucian School and other schools argued endlessly. Their main purpose was to argue about the rituals of the Fengshan sacrifice. Although there are records about the Fengshan sacrifice in many history books, too many years have passed since the ancient sage emperors performed the Fengshan sacrifice, and many corresponding rituals have disappeared in time.

Not only were the Confucian School and other schools arguing, but even within the Confucian School, they were arguing endlessly.

It must be known that there are many factions within the Confucian School. Although the Little Sage and Virtuous Village is the holy land of the Confucian School and Fu Nian is the well-deserved Sect Master of the Confucian School, this is only because Fu Nian holds Tai'a and is relatively good at fighting. In matters like formulating rituals, even the people of the Confucian School do not necessarily agree with Fu Nian's opinions.

For a time, many Confucian scholars serving in the Qin Guo argued endlessly every day. Besides these people, there were many great Confucian scholars scattered all over the world. They were originally not very willing to serve the Qin Guo, but they did not want the Qin Guo to not follow rituals in such a major event as the Fengshan sacrifice, so they traveled thousands of miles to rush toward the Qin Guo and express their views.

Seeing Ying Zheng also heard about this matter.

He could not help but be speechless.

Regarding the Fengshan sacrifice, he had the idea because of Su Xuan's words. Later, after understanding the meaning of the Fengshan sacrifice, he felt that with his merits, it was indeed necessary to perform the Fengshan sacrifice. Seeing Ying Zheng actually did not take to heart what rituals should be used for the Fengshan sacrifice.

He himself did not have much fear of Heaven, Earth, and the gods.

Especially after learning from Su Xuan what those ancient sage emperors had done.

The Yellow Emperor Xuanyuan cast the Sword of Humanity and defeated Did Chi You, who possessed a sword cast by the gods. Emperor Zhuanxu performed the "Severing of Heaven and Earth," cutting off the channel between gods and humans. Afterward, in the era of Emperor Yu, he condensed the Nine Provinces Barrier, making this world completely belong to mortals.

If one follows these past events, the so-called immortals and gods are just another kind of human with powerful strength. They rely on powerful strength to wantonly manipulate everything in the mortal world.

Therefore, because of these reasons, it is really difficult for Seeing Ying Zheng to develop a sense of awe for them.

Similarly, he did not have much awe for the Fengshan sacrifice and the sacrifice to Heaven and Earth.

Even if he did not perform the Fengshan sacrifice and did not sacrifice to Heaven and Earth, he was still a well-deserved king. The so-called Heaven's mandate was eventually controlled by him with powerful strength.

But Su Xuan said that the Fengshan sacrifice would have benefits, so Seeing Ying Zheng eventually decided to perform it.

Regarding the rituals of the Fengshan sacrifice, it was a small matter he casually handed over to the Confucian School to handle. As a result, it caused such a big movement. Seeing Ying Zheng was immediately a bit angry. He was prepared to reprimand the Confucian scholars. If it really didn't work, he would just use the rituals of the Qin Guo's sacrifice to perform the Fengshan sacrifice.

Although there were many sage emperors who performed the Fengshan sacrifice in ancient times, it was I don't know how many years ago, and the relevant rituals had been lost. If they still couldn't be discussed, it was fine to abandon those ancient rituals.

However, before Seeing Ying Zheng was about to speak, Su Xuan stopped Seeing Ying Zheng.

He said that by the time the Fengshan sacrifice began, the relevant rituals would have been discussed.

Thus, Seeing Ying Zheng did not care about this matter.

Then he focused all his attention on another matter.

That is... Eastern Inspection!

Since he was already prepared to perform the Fengshan sacrifice, and both Mount Taishan and Mount Liangfu were in the land of Qi and Lu, located in the east, instead of making a wasted trip to the east just to perform the Fengshan sacrifice, it would be better to take this opportunity to do one more thing, which is the Eastern Inspection.

The territory of the Qin Guo is really too large.

And Xianyang is located in the west, and its management ability over the Six States of Shandong is limited. Since the annihilation of the Six States and the unification of the world, although the Qin Guo has constantly strengthened the management of the Six States of Shandong through various measures, there are still many anti-Qin elements remaining in the old lands of the Six States of Shandong. Especially, Seeing Ying Zheng also wanted to see with his own eyes what the Six States of Shandong were like.

This time is a perfect opportunity.

Through the Eastern Inspection, inspecting the world, one can understand the specific appearance of the world more clearly, and one can take this opportunity to manifest the Emperor's power. It must be known that he practices the way of national fortune. The more loyal the people of the world are to the Qin Guo, the more condensed the national fortune will be, and his strength will become more powerful. If the Fengshan sacrifice is a way to increase strength that Su Xuan told him, then the Eastern Inspection is a way to increase strength that he has verified through experience.
