Chapter 238 Li Si's Unethical Revelation
Recently, because the First Emperor suddenly took a rest and Prince Yuan became regent, the court officials saw the situation in the court change day by day.
I watched as Feng Quji, the right prime minister of that generation, lost his position in a confused manner.
Then there was Zhao Gao, the Emperor's confidant, who died in unclear circumstances.
Immediately afterwards, a group of people threw away their weapons and armor, and many even lost their lives.
Then, the old imperial general Wang Jian "regained his youth", and the aristocratic families collectively resigned from their posts...
It can be said that although Gongzi Yuan was regent for a short time, he really had a lot of fun.
At the beginning, all the court officials were quite worried.
But as they watched, they discovered it.
These things actually have nothing to do with me.
These are all people from aristocratic families, noble families, Confucian scholars, or in other words, those who are secretly against the empire.
However, perhaps the First Emperor did not take these people seriously in the past, or perhaps he did not want to start a war?
Anyway, at least since the Prince Regent started working, the court has become more and more cheerful day by day.
Look, they saw the same drama again today.
"Oh my god! This must be fake! I know that Gongzi Yuan and Gongzi Fusu have a good relationship, but is it really this good?"
"Haha, the relationship between these two brothers has never been bad. They used to fight and quarrel. This is what brothers are like!"
"Well, brothers are friendly and respectful to each other. This is what a young master of Daqin should be like. Daqin is so lucky!"
"Well, but I feel weird about the siege. Gongzi Yuan is so angry, why does he just talk but not do anything? Shouldn't he just push him out and chop him up?"
"No, do you want to see who is standing opposite you? Do you want Gongzi Yuan to push Li Xiang out and chop him up?"
"."
As discussions rang out, all the civil and military officials felt that things were not simple.
But, there is a lot of fun here.
It has nothing to do with them anyway, so just watch.
Only a few smart people were watching with great excitement.
One old and one young, two foxes with sophisticated acting skills are showing off their acting skills here.
In other words, Chunyu Yue's old man Bidden doesn't know anything.
Look, I'm still confused.
In fact, it’s not Chunyu Yue’s fault that he is confused.
He was about to get angry.
But before he could burst out in anger, Ying Yuan got there first.
Not only was he angrier than him, but the key point was that he had basically said everything he wanted to say.
As a result, Chunyu Yue was left there grunting for a long time without being able to fart, feeling almost suffocated to death.
However, Li Si is also a veteran player and is best at controlling the rhythm.
Seeing that the audience's emotions had cooled down, he immediately spoke with an embarrassed look on his face.
"Sir, there are still some solutions here."
"Although the national treasury is indeed not very full, but some things don't necessarily have to use the national treasury's money, right?"
Seeing Li Si's expression, the anger on Ying Yuan's face disappeared instantly, and instead he nodded repeatedly with a smile on his face.
"Li Xiang is indeed the dragon pillar that supports the sky and the purple gold beam that spans the sea of our Great Qin."
"I knew that such a small problem would be difficult for our Prime Minister Li!"
"good very good!"
"Prime Minister Li, if you have any ideas, just speak up!"
Li Si felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Ying Yuan, who was clearly devoted to the country but whose eyes were full of gloating.
Damn! These kids are growing up too fast these days.
How old is this?
Do you need to study to be able to cooperate with us?
However, let’s not think about these for the time being. In Li Si’s view, anyone who can take ruthless action against Confucianism is a friendly force.
Great ally!
"Well, Sir, please allow me to report this matter. After thinking about it, I have come up with a solution!"
"That's right. This matter may embarrass the Confucian officials!"
"I have heard that the Confucian officials contacted each other privately and pooled a sum of money every year."
"The purpose is to worship Confucius, the founder of Confucianism!"
"Of course, it would cost more than that just to make offerings."
"So all this money was sealed up in the Confucius Temple in the old Qi State."
"It is said that this money is prepared for the promotion of Confucianism!"
"In my opinion, this money can be taken out first!"
"Oh, and since all the Confucian officials are wealthy enough to support the spread of Confucianism, then there's probably nothing to be gained from using next year's salary to support it!"
"In this case, I suggest that the Confucians take out next year's salary and the money they have saved to cover the corresponding expenses of the Heroes Association!"
"After all, hasn't Confucianism always claimed to unwaveringly support Prince Fusu?"
"You can't just shout loudly, but when you really need to use it, you won't be there, right?"
Li Si's words were such an understatement.
But the smile on his face, that blatant gloating, was not hidden at all.
His idea is simple.
Does Confucianism want to be implemented throughout the world?
snort!
I will dig up all your roots first!
I'll take away all your savings, and see how you can promote it?!
what's going on?
Do Confucian scholars not need to eat or wear clothes or something?
If you can promote Confucianism without spending money, then that's your ability and I really admire you.
If you can't do it, then you can't blame the original appearance.
After all, it was you who proposed this matter!
But when Li Si said this, all the Confucian officials looked extremely unhappy.
Because, damn, what Li Si just said was actually true.
The so-called money hidden in the Confucius Temple was actually all the expenses for the operation of the Confucius Temple.
Moreover, the money there was not just donated by these people.
Confucianism promotes "education for all", which means that it seems that anyone can learn.
But in fact, the concept of "Shuxiu" was popularized by Confucianism.
Those who had no money at home had to provide rice and meat to support the teachers, and also help with laundry, cooking and serving.
As for the young men from wealthy families, it goes without saying that they would spend huge sums of money on tuition!
On the one hand, this money was indeed spent.
After all, these teachers and students really need to eat and wear clothes, and sometimes they even have to pay attention to things like burning incense.
This is all money.
Of the remaining parts, most were placed in the Confucius Temple.
This money is actually used to promote Confucianism.
Of course, repairing the Confucius Temple is also part of the promotion.
After all, this Confucian facade cannot be too shabby.
As a result, the secrets that Confucianism had kept hidden were actually exposed by Li Si so brazenly?
What the hell is this?
This is money!
