All Heavens: Start with a Heavenly Dao Building

Chapter 65 Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species?

Ying Zheng's face darkened.

There are really people who are not afraid of death!

He looked in the direction of the voice and found that it was the words of Right Prime Minister Feng Quji.

"I second the motion!"

"I second the motion!"

Before Ying Zheng could get angry, Shusun Tong and several other ministers also stood up to agree.

Among them were Confucianists and those from other schools.

These people have one thing in common, that is, they come from the powerful and wealthy class.

They opposed so fiercely, on the one hand to protect the saints and Confucianism, and on the other hand to protect the interests of the nobles and the wealthy class.

They vaguely guessed that the deep meaning of your majesty's building a temple to redress King Zhou was that it was most likely to change the official selection system.

This touched the core interests of the nobles and the wealthy class!

Ying Zheng's face became more and more gloomy.

How could he not know that these bastards opposed him fiercely just to "protect their food" and wanted to firmly control the official selection system in the hands of the nobles and the wealthy class.

What the gentleman said was right, the implementation of the imperial examination system was indeed met with huge resistance!

The imperial examination system is imperative. Otherwise, due to the solidification of the class, the Qin officialdom will not have fresh blood from other classes to supplement it. In the long run, it will become a stagnant pool of water, becoming corrupt and smelly.

In this way, the Qin Dynasty will not be far from destruction.

The Qin Dynasty belongs to me, and I will not allow you to be presumptuous!

Ying Zheng stood up, like a mountain rising from the ground, and said majestically: "Come on, take the right prime minister Feng Quji out, and punish him with 80 sticks, and the others with 50 sticks!"

Aren't these guys jumping high?

Then I will beat them one by one!

Ying Zheng swept across the six countries and unified the world, relying on iron-blooded means, how could these civil servants be coerced!

Moreover, at this time, the aristocratic families had not really risen, and the aristocratic families did not have the strong influence of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wei and Jin Dynasties, and could not make too much waves.

A group of black-armored guards immediately rushed in and dragged Feng Quji, Shusun Tong and other officials out.

"Your Majesty, you are so foolish and tyrannical. How can the records in the history books of the Western Zhou Dynasty be wrong? How can the judgment of Confucius be wrong?" Shusun Tong yelled.

"Crown Prince, Your Majesty has built a temple for a foolish and tyrannical monarch, which will be criticized by thousands of people and history books. Please persuade Your Majesty!" said Feng Quji, the right prime minister.

"Crown Prince..."

If it were the former Fusu, he would definitely stand up and stand on the united front with the officials, fiercely opposing Ying Zheng, even at the cost of his life!

But now Fusu has broken free from the shackles of Confucianism and looks at the problem from a completely new height.

He knows that what Mr. Tiandaolou said is right, Emperor Xin is a wise monarch!

Fusu also knows that if the Qin Dynasty wants to be well governed and flourish, the official selection system does need to be drastically reformed to break the class solidification.

Fusu walked out of the court and said to the ministers: "Your Majesty is right! King Zhou Dixin is a wise king of all ages and an ancient emperor!"

"Crown Prince, you..."

Feng Quji, Shusun Tong and other officials were so angry that they almost spit out blood.

Usually, they used Confucianism to teach Fusu earnestly and carefully, wanting to train Fusu to be a Confucian spokesperson, and when he succeeded to the throne, they could abolish all schools of thought and respect Confucianism alone!

At that time, Confucianism will be extremely glorious!

But Feng Quji, Shusun Tong and other Confucianists never thought that Fusu would betray Confucianism, making all their previous efforts in vain!

Ying Zheng waved his hand impatiently and said, "Drag him out!"

"Your Majesty, you will regret it!" Feng Quji roared.

"Your Majesty, what is the difference between what you do and the incompetent tyrant King Zhou!" Shusun Tong cursed.

Ying Zheng frowned and shouted:

"Feng Quji and Shusun Tong will be beaten with a stick 100 times each, and then put in jail!"

Some officials who wanted to yell and curse were all stunned when they saw this!

If Ying Zheng is angered again, he is likely to start a massacre!

Soon, the screams of slaughtering pigs outside the Qilin Hall were heard one after another.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said: "Come on, close the door of the hall!"

Then, Ying Zheng said in a deep voice: "Li Si listens to the order!"

"I am here!" Li Si bowed his hands.

Ying Zheng said: "From today on, you will resume your position as the left prime minister, and be responsible for building the King Zhou Temple in all counties and prefectures in the Qin Empire, and publicizing King Zhou's merits such as selecting talents!"

"Yes!" Li Si trembled with excitement, and said with a fist.

Your Majesty has finally resumed his position as the left prime minister!

In the future, I will swear to serve Your Majesty and be loyal to the Qin Empire until my death!

Ying Zheng said: "Come here, order Tongwu Hou Wang Ben to lead 100,000 elite soldiers to return to Xianyang immediately!"

Ying Zheng made such arrangements to escort the reform of the official selection system.

He promoted the imperial examination system, which affected the big cake of the powerful and wealthy classes. He was worried that these people would be desperate, so an elite army must be stationed in Xianyang!

"Yes!" The eunuch in charge of drafting the edict respectfully accepted the order.

Ying Zheng's tiger eyes were shining, and he glanced at the ministers and said: "Okay, today's court meeting is here, adjourn the court!"

The officials left the Qilin Hall and saw Feng Quji, Shusun Tong and others bleeding from their buttocks and being beaten to death. They couldn't help but shake their heads helplessly.

Soon, Ying Zheng's edict to build a temple for the incompetent tyrant King Zhou was spread to all counties and prefectures of Daqin.

This edict drafted by Li Si detailed the merits of King Zhou Di Xin, and the various suppressions and smears of Di Xin in the history books of the Western Zhou Dynasty and Confucian saints.

Suddenly, the public opinion of the whole Qin Dynasty was ignited!

One stone stirs up a thousand waves!

Many people were discussing in teahouses, taverns, streets and alleys all over the country.

"I never thought that there were such stories behind King Zhou Di Xin. He actually did so many things for the people!"

"King Zhou is truly a wise ruler throughout the ages. We were misled by the history books of the Western Zhou Dynasty and the criticisms of the saints!"

"This is the winner and loser. Shameless Western Zhou Dynasty, shameless Jiang Ziya, Bigan, Ji Chang..."

"King Zhou is a good monarch who truly cares about the common people!"

"Are kings, princes, generals, and ministers of different species? King Zhou gave ordinary people the opportunity to be officials!"

Compared to the admiration and applause of ordinary people, the nobles and wealthy classes in the Qin Dynasty frowned when they saw this edict of rehabilitation!

"What is your majesty going to do?"

"Does your majesty want to learn from King Zhou and use slaves and criminals?!"

"Your majesty must be thinking this! Damn it! There will be many low-class mud legs and untouchables competing with us for official positions in the future!"

"We must do something to stop the untouchables from taking official positions belonging to the nobles and the wealthy!"

"Those lowly and low-class civilians are not worthy of being officials and are above all other people!"

"..."

At the gate of the city in Huaiyin.

At this moment, it was surrounded by people, who were watching the edict of rehabilitation from Ying Zheng to King Zhou.

The literate people read the contents of the edict to the people.

The people talked about it.

A down-and-out young man in cloth, with stubble and holding a long sword, walked towards the gate of the city curiously.

What new thing happened there?

This person was Han Xin.
