Chapter 240: The Poisoner Chen Ping Strikes Again
Moreover, during this debate, Chunyu Yue and others made a shocking discovery.
That was Fusu, who had always stood firmly by Chunyu Yue and protected their teachers, but today he didn't say a word.
In fact, the reason is very simple, and Fusu was also thinking about it.
He discovered that, looking back on the past, a series of Confucian officials including Chunyu Yue had interacted with him.
In Fusu's view at the time, many of these words made sense and were beneficial to the Qin Dynasty.
But what kind of person was Fusu at that time?
He's just a young man who doesn't know much about the world.
He may have a good impression of Confucianism and have his own ambitions for the Qin Dynasty.
However, he had never come into contact with government affairs, the court structure of the Qin Dynasty, and so on.
Maybe his heart is good and his knowledge is real.
But even such a greenhorn could be fooled by Chunyu Yue and others in any way they wanted, right?
But things are different now.
The lazy Ying Yuan is not his father, the emperor with a bad temper. If he doesn't like Fusu, he won't give him any chance and doesn't even have the chance to get involved in government affairs.
As a salted fish, and a salted fish with system certification, Ying Yuan threw piles of various memorials into Fusu's hands.
Although he still had to keep track of things himself, at least it allowed Fusu, who was originally a rookie, to start having intensive contact with the political affairs of the Qin Dynasty.
From these memorials and daily discussions at Ying Yuan's residence, Fusu finally gained a more real understanding of the Great Qin.
It was also at this time that Fusu had a clearer and more real understanding of the Qin Dynasty in his heart.
It was no longer the false impression in his mind that was instilled by his own imagination and Chunyu Yue and others.
And here, a very interesting point is that Fusu's loyalty to the Qin Dynasty is beyond doubt.
As the eldest son of the empire, Fusu loved the Qin Dynasty and was proud of his identity.
So, it seems that Confucianism had coaxed him very well in the past.
That's because under the brainwashing of Confucianism, he truly felt that promoting Confucianism would be beneficial to the Qin Dynasty.
Of course he would do it!
But now he has seen many things clearly and understands what the interests of the Qin Dynasty are.
When I think back on it now, I feel something is wrong.
Why is it that the advice given by Master Chunyu and others in the past seemed to revolve around the interests of Confucianism?
Especially at the beginning, under the instigation of Chunyu Yue and others, he proposed the feudal system to the First Emperor.
As a result, he was scolded in class and almost lost his identity as the Prince of Qin.
The results of it?
Chunyu Yue and others advised him to wait for the right opportunity and take action at another time?
So, what about Fusu’s loss?
He had offended his wise and powerful father!
Didn't Chunyu Yue and others ever consider this?
Now it seems that there really isn’t!
All they care about is whether they can use Confucian ideas to rule this empire!
This is what they care about!
Of course, there is one more thing.
That is whether Confucian officials can obtain corresponding power in the court!
As a result, I became a pawn in the hands of these people without knowing it!
Thinking about it now, it’s quite sad.
But what about the other way around?
Fusu raised his head and silently looked at Ying Yuan who was sitting on the high platform, and his heart felt slightly warmed.
My sixth brother really has nothing to say about me!
Although he was the prince regent, he had no qualms about sending large numbers of memorials to his palace, allowing him to come into contact with practical matters that he had never been exposed to before.
At the same time, I won't mention that I often stand up for myself.
At least, if his sixth brother hadn't reminded him, he might still be indulging in the Confucian lies of "manners" and "benevolence"?
It seems that my sixth brother is still reliable. He really trusts my eldest brother!
"Sir, we, the Confucianists, will pay for this!" Just when Ying Yuan was excitedly planning to use Chunyu Yue to test whether the court stick worked, an anxious voice suddenly sounded.
Chunyu Yue turned around in surprise, only to find that it was Shusun Tong standing behind him. He stood up and jumped over him to agree to Ying Yuan's 'impudent' request.
Ying Yuan looked at Shusun Tong and nodded without hiding the disappointment on his face.
"Oh, so it is!"
"That's okay!"
"Please send the money from the Confucius Temple to Xianyang as soon as possible in the next two days!"
"By the way, I would like to remind you too."
"You Confucians are free to promote Confucianism, but if you use the Imperial Affairs to do this, you'd better make sure your hands are clean!"
"Otherwise, don't blame me for not warning you!"
"Retreat!"
With Ying Yuan's shout, this lively court meeting came to an end.
But things are far from over.
Just then, Chunyu Yue, who was keenly aware that something was wrong with Fusu, trotted and caught up with Fusu as soon as he got off court.
"Sir, please listen to my explanation..."
Fusu, who usually would stand still and listen carefully to Chunyu Yue's words, turned his head with a cold expression and spoke softly.
"Dr. Chunyu, I have something important to deal with. Let's find another opportunity later!"
"Let's say goodbye for now!"
Chunyu Yue stared in a daze as Fusu walked towards the outside without stopping, his expression changing constantly.
But Fusu had no time to pay attention to these things at all.
Because he really has something to do.
So, he went straight to Ying Yuan.
"Sixth brother, I understand your business of saving money by selling paper."
"But I don't understand why the Confucianists must pay for this Heroes Conference?"
"Others don't know, but I do."
"Compared to the money we got back from the noble families this time, this expense is just a drop in the bucket!"
Ying Yuan smiled as he looked at Fusu who had hurried over and asked him to take a seat first. Then, Chen Ping on the side spoke.
"Master Fusu Rong, this matter was Ping's plan!"
Only then did Fusu realize that the current situation seemed a little delicate.
Not only Chen Ping was present, but Xiao He and Cao Shen were also present.
It seemed that Ying Yuan had anticipated his coming and had prepared everything for him.
But Ying Yuan waved his hand and comforted him with a smile.
"Brother, don't worry!"
"Since you have questions about this matter, I will help you solve them!"
"Well, Mr. Chen, please help my brother explain a few things first!"
Ying Yuan winked at Chen Ping and pushed him to the front of the stage.
This scene was actually something Ying Yuan had prepared long ago.
The purpose is very simple, just to let Fusu see more clearly.
What exactly is Confucianism?
Just that scene in the court is not enough!
So, we have to increase the stakes!
Then, the poisonous scholar Chen Ping, move out!
