However, as an old fritter who has been in the court for many years, naturally he will not express his thoughts easily, but just greeted him with a smile on his face.
Seeing this, Ye Chen quickly stood up and saluted: "I've seen you all!"
Everyone's eyes sized him up without a trace, feeling a little curious in their hearts.To be able to let the king of Qin personally introduce him at the banquet is definitely not an ordinary person. I wonder what is so special about this young man?
Afterwards, Lord Changping, who was at the top on the left, said, "I remember that Li Si also studied under Master Xun, and he is the same as Mr. Ye?"
Hearing this, Li Si interjected: "This is the senior brother of the lower official, not only has extraordinary talent and learning, but also extremely strong martial arts. He is the best candidate to take over the head of Confucianism."
As he spoke, his eyes flickered slightly.
Although these words were praising Ye Chen, they actually implied other meanings.
The foundation of Confucianism is in the land of Qilu. If ordinary disciples can leave after their studies, they can go to other countries to find a suitable monarch and express their ambitions.
For example, he chose Qin, but Han Fei returned to South Korea. This is a normal thing.
However, if you are the head of Confucianism, you will not have such freedom.
As the head of the sect, although he can obtain great honor and rights, at the same time his own destiny will also unite the sect as one, and every move will be endowed with more meaning.
But now it is rooted in the state of Qi, and is highly regarded by the royal family. The current head, Le Zhengzi, is even the grand tutor of the state of Qi.Under such circumstances, if Ye Chen inherits the position of head, it will be very difficult for him to make great achievements in Qin.
In short, Li Si's words conveyed the most important message: my senior brother's future is not here, and Qin cannot keep him.
And the reason why he said this was naturally that he didn't want Ye Chen to stay in Xianyang.As a fellow student, he was very aware of this senior brother's abilities. Not only was he quick-witted, but he also had quite unique insights into the political situation and current situation, which even Xunzi appreciated very much.
Even the legalist theory that he relied on seemed very immature in front of the other party. When he was in Xiaoshengxianzhuang, Ye Chen directly pointed out many problems in it.
To be honest, if the two become rivals, he doesn't have the slightest confidence.
The most important thing is that Ying Zheng admires the former very much. He has no doubt that if Ye Chen is willing to step into an official career, Ying Zheng will definitely offer a high-ranking official and generous salary immediately.
Fortunately, the other party didn't seem to have any plans to get involved in the government, otherwise how would he gain a foothold in the Qin State, and what kind of extreme minister would he talk about?
So what he has to do is to prevent him from stepping into the court, so that his position will be more secure.
After hearing this, Ye Chen frowned slightly and glanced at the other party.
Li Si lowered his head and subconsciously avoided his gaze.
To be honest, this matter is indeed a little unreasonable, after all, Ye Chen helped him in Korea, but now he secretly made a stumbling block.
Although it would not bring any harm to the other party, it also broke the idea of many people to win over the former.
Mr. Chang Ping understood it, nodded slightly and said: "So that's the case. If this is the case, then I hope that Mr. will be crowned the head of the sect as soon as possible."
After the words fell, he picked up the wine cup in his hand and toasted.
Ye Chen also picked up the cup, and replied: "Thank you, Mr. Changping."
Although he has no intention of becoming the next head of Confucianism for the time being, he didn't explain much either.Let these people have less thoughts of making friends, and they can be more pure.
He is indeed more optimistic about Qin, but he has no intention of joining this camp. He may occasionally help out, but he definitely has no intention of becoming a courtier.
With the continuous improvement of strength, he no longer wants to participate in the vortex of the struggle of various forces.
Compared with becoming a marquis and worshiping a prime minister, what Ye Chen wants more is to escape from the pattern of the Seven Kingdoms and become a more detached existence.Sitting and watching the wind and clouds are surging, and pointing out the general trend of the world while talking and laughing, is the real freedom.
With the existence of the system, he is not far from this day.
After drinking for three rounds, the atmosphere gradually warmed up. Ying Zheng chatted and laughed with everyone. This time it was a celebration banquet and he didn't need to worry about court affairs, so it was quite relaxed.
At this moment, a small figure walked over.
This is a six or seven-year-old boy, well-dressed and well-dressed. He looks cute, but he is not as innocent as ordinary children. Instead, he has a kind of respect and seriousness similar to adults.
He walked up to Yingzheng's table in a proper manner, knelt down and kowtowed: "I pay homage to my father!"
Ying Zheng glanced at the other party, a trace of gentleness flashed in his eyes, but he said lukewarmly: "Get up."
Hearing the words, the boy stood up respectfully, then looked at the many ministers on the field, cupped his hands and said, "Fusu has seen you all!"
Everyone heard the words and quickly got up to return: "I have seen the eldest son!"
Ying Zheng raised his hand and said, "Everyone here is the elder of Fusu, so there is no need to be so polite."
All the courtiers responded and then returned to their seats.
At this time, Lord Changping, who was at the top on the left, looked at Fusu, with a friendly smile on his face, and said, "Young Master, he has already shown his bearing at a young age, and in the future he will surely carry on the ambition of a king, and his achievements will be limitless. "
Many ministers on the field heard the words and echoed one after another.
Seeing this, Ying Zheng also had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but he quickly hid it again.
Then he looked at Fusu and said, "Have you finished your homework today?"
Hearing this, Fusu cupped his hands and replied, "I report to my father, it has been completed."
Ying Zheng nodded: "Have you ever reviewed what you learned a few days ago?"
Hearing this, the expression on Fu Su's face changed slightly, and he said nervously: "No, never."
Ying Zheng frowned, and said lightly, "Since you haven't reviewed it yet, why are you here?"
Fusu became even more nervous, and said: "My son, my son knows that the father is hosting a banquet today, so I, I want to come..."
Hearing this, Ying Zheng said with a serious face: "Nonsense, don't study hard, and want to play around?"
"My son knows it's wrong!"
Seeing that the former seemed a little angry, Fusu quickly knelt down on the ground.
"I know I'm wrong, why are you still here, don't you continue to study?"
Ying Zheng drank lightly.
"promise."
Fusu responded, then stood up, turned around and left, with three points of loss, three points of sadness, three points of panic and one point of helplessness on her immature cheeks...
Chapter 2: Copper Head and Iron Arm Are Invulnerable
Seeing this scene, Ye Chen couldn't help but change his expression. This child should be Yingzheng's eldest son, Fusu.
His mother is from the Mi family of Chu State, and she is considered to be of the royal blood of the two countries. Today's Lord Changping is his uncle, and he is also the biggest force in the court to escort him.
Then he looked at Ying Zheng and said, "Brother Zheng, I think the eldest son is pretty good. Are you being too harsh on him?"
