Daqin: Zulong's Traveling Frog

Chapter 138 Jinshi
Qin Wangzheng was 16 years old.

Lin Qing Pavilion.

Dozens of bachelors from six countries in Shandong have been appointed as doctors and are discussing something.

After Zhao Gao entered the cabinet, he choked out and said, "Your Majesty is here!"

In an instant, a man with a strong imposing manner and cold eyes, wearing a black black robe, stepped into the hall. It was Qin Wangzheng.

Besides Zhonglang Guard and Zhao Gao, Li Si was following behind him.

The two people stepped into the main hall, and the hall was filled with awe. A strategic question spanning a thousand years was about to begin here.

Qin Wangzheng sat in front of the big bronze case with no joy or anger on his face. Li Si was on the right side facing Qin Wangzheng far away. ."

After finishing speaking, he waved his hand slightly and ordered Lin Qingge's servants to pour a glass of wine for the doctors, then Li Si stood up and said with a smile to everyone: "A good day is auspicious with good wine, let's have a drink!"

Unexpectedly, Li Si's human hospitality was ignored by the doctors.

The doctors rolled their eyes at Li Si from time to time, and some of them didn't even look at him.

Facing the doctor's neglect, Li Si, the Tingwei, felt very disappointed, with anger rising between his brows, he slammed the Bronze Jue heavily on the Bronze Case, making a clear and crisp sound.

As an important position in the center of a country, he was ignored by a group of scholars who did not have real names. No one could bear it. Li Si was about to stand up, glanced at everyone, and was about to curse.

Qin Wangzheng waved his hand slightly, signaling Li Simo to be impulsive.

In the mind of Qin Wangzheng, the reason why the doctors ignored Qin Wangzheng was simply because the Qin Empire used violence to level the six kingdoms instead of governing the world in a royal way.

The doctors' homeland was swept away by Qin's heavy armored infantry. The country was destroyed and the family was destroyed. Naturally, they would not treat the King of Qin well.

However, Qin Wangzheng believes that all this is temporary, and believes that in the near future, doctors will accept him because of Qin Wangzheng's warm hospitality.

And Qin Wangzheng also stated that the purpose of coming this time is to ask questions in class, so as to identify the true talents and learning of the doctors.

Who knew that the first question would be a bombshell, and King Qin ordered them to evaluate themselves.

No one in the lobby dared to answer. This question is very difficult. If you say a word wrong, you will lose your head.

Qin Wangzheng showed his tiger eyes, his gaze swept over everyone coldly, a trace of fierceness flashed in his eyes, and he said lightly: "Let's start with the Confucian scholars first!"

Several Confucian scholars were shocked suddenly, cold sweat broke out on their foreheads, and some even had their legs trembling uncontrollably.

Zhou Qingchen, however, was clever and came to flatter him first: "The First Emperor's civil and military skills are unparalleled; he will surely make the Qin Dynasty prosperous and secure forever!"

Qin Wangzheng smiled slightly, this sentence was exactly what he wanted.

Even though he knew in his heart that Zhou Qingchen was flattering, but the flattery happened to be slapped on the electronic screen, could the King of Qin be angry?

What's more, what the Qin Empire wants is doctors who obey the laws of heaven and work tirelessly for the Qin Dynasty. If they resist the Qin Dynasty, it is better to kill them to thank the world.

But Qin Wangzheng did not brag publicly, but looked at the other doctors from the corner of his eye, and asked, "Do the rest of the Confucian scholars evaluate me as Zhou Qingchen thinks?"

Chunyuyue was about to go in person when he was stopped by an elderly man, who was Huang Shigong.

Huang Shigong carefully studied Qin Wangzheng, and suddenly became disheartened.

I thought that Qin Wangzheng was the Mingjun of the prosperous age, but unfortunately he was wrong.

Unexpectedly, Qin Wangzheng actually liked a flatterer like Zhou Qingchen!
He stopped Chunyuyue because he was worried that Chunyuyue's direct remonstrance would arouse the wrath of Qin Wangzheng Longwei, and he might order him to be executed on the spot, which would outweigh the gain.

Chunyu Yue seemed to understand Huang Shigong's intention, took a step back, and joined in with the Confucian scholars.

Qin Wangzheng then glanced at the others, and the answers he received were nothing but flattery.

"The First Emperor's Majesty is proficient in all aspects of martial arts, virtue and three emperors, and his achievements surpass the five emperors!"

"Your Majesty has taken over the entire universe, encompassed the four seas, and conquered eight wastelands. He has Kunpeng's far-sighted aspirations!"

"For thousands of years, to rule the world, His Majesty the First Emperor is the one emperor through the ages!"

But these words did not make Qin Wangzheng happy. Qin Wangzheng wanted to hear some different opinions.

Zhou Qingchen's flattery is enough, others' flattery is just to curry favor with me!

Li Si smiled contemptuously, this policy question was the biggest failure!

The capable ministers and scholars from the Six Kingdoms are just sycophants. Why does the empire need such talents?

Therefore, Qin Wangzheng smiled indifferently and said contemptuously: "Don't you all have negative comments about me?"

Seeing Qin Wangzheng getting angry, everyone bowed their heads, not even daring to show their anger, but Huang Shigong smiled indifferently, stood up and said: "I have a different opinion!"

The doctors all looked at Huang Shigong, and even Li Si followed suit.

Huang Shigong solemnly cupped his hands and said: "I am old, I just want to find a generation of Mingjun, and I will show my loyalty to the death!"

"I thought that His Majesty the First Emperor would sweep away the heaven and earth, but he was a wise emperor through the ages, and his ministers traveled thousands of miles to come here to seek refuge, but I didn't expect that..."

Huang Shigong paused for a moment, then raised his voice and said: "The First Emperor turned out to be a foolish emperor!"

Li Si slammed his fist at the big bronze case, his eyes were as cold as ice, and he scolded: "It's a bunch of nonsense! How can the stupid king unify the world?"

King Qin's government was open to all rivers, so naturally he would not be angry because of the old man's words, but asked the old man: "Why did you say this, sir?"

Huang Shigong observed the situation, re-examined the Qin king's politics, and said sternly: "Your Majesty uses absolute royal power to press you, isn't it bullying others?"

"Isn't it self-deception to favor the flattery of all officials?"

"Aren't you a foolish king to bully others and deceive yourself?"

These two words were like a heavy hammer, creating a loud and loud crater in the hall, and the sound echoed in Qin Wangzheng's ears.

But Qin Wangzheng was not angry, let alone speak out what was in his heart, but glanced at Li Si from the corner of his eye.

Li Si noticed Qin Wangzheng's cold gaze, nodded slightly, stood up suddenly and said, "It's nonsense!"

"If Your Majesty uses his royal power to force you to question you, he can just summon you to the main hall of Zhangtai Palace. Why do you need to come to Linqing Pavilion in person?"

"If Your Majesty really likes flattery, why do you let you evaluate it instead of letting you praise it directly? Why do you ask your different opinions?"

"The purpose of His Majesty's coming today is to ask you questions, to test whether you have real talents and learning!"

"Obviously, this is not the answer His Majesty the First Emperor wanted!"

Upon hearing this, the doctors were disheartened, lowered their heads and sighed helplessly.

Huang Shigong gasped when he was refuted, and almost didn't recover, he sat down on the apricot wood floor, and Qin Wangzheng ordered the imperial doctor in the palace to treat him.

At this moment, Qin Wangzheng was already disheartened. It seemed that these wise ministers from the six countries were just in vain. They came to approach the First Emperor just to flatter and ask for my reward!

Qin Wangzheng did not express his position immediately, but ordered the guards of Zhonglang to dismiss everyone, leaving only the Confucian scholars represented by Zhou Qingchen.

Obviously, Zhou Qingchen's flattery saved Confucianism, and Qin Wangzheng still needed them to do more important things, to teach and help Su, so that future generations could produce a benevolent and righteous king to govern the country.

At the same time, Xiao Zhinu also traveled thousands of miles to the palace, bringing rich specialties.
