Chapter 226: One Year After Being a National Master in Qin
Chapter 226: One Year After Being the Imperial Master in Qin
Time flies by like a white horse, and in the blink of an eye, a year has passed.
Since Hao Shuai offered countless suggestions and techniques to the First Emperor a year ago, the entire Qin Dynasty has undergone earth-shaking changes under the leadership of the First Emperor, who is increasingly energetic.
Especially with the application of papermaking and printing, the emergence of a large number of books has had an impact on the entire Qin Dynasty that is no less than Shang Yang's reforms!
Let's not talk about anything else. Except for a few schools of thought such as the Legalists and the Military Strategists, all the schools of thought that had always looked down on the Qin Dynasty, after seeing the publication of books, all ran shamelessly to Xianyang to lick the First Emperor.
Especially the Confucians who cursed the First Emperor as a tyrant every day and refused to serve the Qin Dynasty, the Confucians who licked the First Emperor were the most shameless. Under the leadership of the great Chunyu Yue, the entire Confucianism flattered the First Emperor in Xianyang City every day.
This coquettish operation of the Confucianism made other schools of thought dumbfounded.
Sure enough, when it comes to shamelessness, it’s still the intellectuals!
But we can’t blame the people of the various schools of thought for being spineless.
The main reason is that the temptation to spread their own doctrines, to be famous for thousands of years, and to be famous for generations is too strong!
Compared with these, a little face is nothing!
The Confucian leader even shamelessly recommended himself as the teacher of Prince Fusu.
For all this, the First Emperor was happy to see.
In fact, as early as after unifying the six kingdoms, the First Emperor knew that the rule of law that had been implemented since Shang Yang’s reform was no longer suitable for the development of the Qin Dynasty.
The ambitious First Emperor certainly understood the reason for using heavy punishments in troubled times. When the seven kingdoms were unified, it was necessary to slowly change the idea of governing the country. Confucianism advocates the use of rituals to maintain the status and relationship between people, the use of virtue to influence the people, and the use of people to let the wise spread this idea. It is naturally suitable to be used as a governing idea.
This is also the reason why Emperor Wu of Han later dismissed all schools of thought and respected Confucianism, and why the emperors after him followed Confucianism.
As an excellent emperor, the First Emperor had no prejudice against any doctrine. If the Legalist thought could better govern the government, then he would use the Legalist; if the Confucian thought could better govern the government, then he would use the Confucian; if the novelist's thought could govern the country...
Uh~ forget about novelists!
They are destined to be sent knives and live in poverty!
Unfortunately, the Confucians had always looked down on the Qin Dynasty, which they regarded as barbarians. Not only did they refuse to serve the Qin Dynasty, they also criticized the First Emperor every day, which caused the First Emperor to burn books and bury Confucian scholars.
Now the situation has changed!
You ignored me back then, but I am out of your reach today.
It's the First Emperor's turn to choose among the various schools of thought!
However, the First Emperor was indeed broad-minded. He did not embarrass these various schools of thought. Instead, he compiled their thoughts into books and sent them all to teach in the newly established private schools.
In short, during this year, the officials of the entire Qin Dynasty were like wound-up springs, busy and about to explode.
Only Hao Shuai, the idle national teacher, occasionally went to Dengxian Tower to talk with the First Emperor about the policy of governing the country and guide the First Emperor's practice. The rest of the time he took Lu Su and Lu Zhi to travel around the mountains and rivers, and his life was still very leisurely.
Of course, Hao Shuai was not without troubles, which was related to the practice of the First Emperor.
It's not that the First Emperor practiced slowly, but that he practiced too fast!
Your~~sister~~
In just over a year, our Majesty the First Emperor's internal strength level has reached the peak of the second-rate level.
It's too unfair. This is the result of the First Emperor practicing for more than an hour every morning and being busy with government affairs the rest of the time.
If the First Emperor had practiced diligently like those martial arts fanatics, wouldn't he have ascended to heaven and become an immortal right away? !
Is it true that if there is no woman in my heart, I will become a god when I draw my sword?
Is it because women affect my cultivation speed?
Thinking of this, Hao Shuai unconsciously lowered his head and looked at himself
Pah
What are you thinking!
Without the joy of this place, what's the point of becoming an immortal? !
Hao Shuai decisively gave up the terrible idea just now.
During this year, the development of Daqin was not smooth sailing. There were many obstacles in the middle, including a small matter related to the plot.
About half a year ago, the small country of Tuan invaded the border of Daqin and abducted many corvée laborers who were building the Great Wall, which delayed the construction of the Great Wall and angered the First Emperor. Then~~ there was nothing else.
The small country of Tuan was directly destroyed by the Meng family army sent by the First Emperor to show the military power of Daqin.
Tuan Kingdom did not struggle, but it was useless. In the end, Tuan even wanted to marry his beloved Princess Yushu to the First Emperor as in the plot, in order to save Tuan.
When this request was placed in front of Meng Kuo, Meng Kuo refused without a second thought, because he knew that his Majesty had not been close to women for more than half a year in order to cultivate immortality.
In addition, Meng Kuo was not a bootlicker like Yi Xiaochuan, so in the end, Tuan Kingdom was destroyed so gorgeously. The king and his family were all sent to Xianyang City to perform singing and dancing, and the people were taken to build the Great Wall.
Hao Shuai did not participate in this matter. He only took a look when the king of Tuan and his family were taken to the Qilin Hall. Hmm! It was indeed not eye-catching!
Then he casually proposed to give Princess Yushu to Meng Kuo's younger brother Meng Yi, that is, Yi Xiaochuan.
That's right, it was Yi Xiaochuan.
After disappearing for more than a dozen chapters, our hero finally appeared again. After Hao Shuai modified his memory, Yi Xiaochuan went north to find Meng Kuo and successfully recognized him as his relative. He became the young commander of the Meng family army and led the troops and fought bravely in this war to destroy the country.
The First Emperor agreed to Hao Shuai's suggestion without thinking. As an emperor, he was very familiar with this method of winning over subordinates. Besides, the First Emperor was not interested in women now.
In this way, the hero and heroine of the myth world were happily together in this way!
Now Hao Shuai is still in the myth world just to wait for the meteorite that fell from the sky.
As for Cui Wenzi, he was found and sent to the National Master's Mansion in Xianyang a year ago.
…
Cui Wenzi is not a fictional character in the TV series. He really existed in history. He was from Taishan County and a medical scientist in the Qin Dynasty. He saved countless people and was mythical as the immortal in the folk legend.
In the "Biographies of Immortals" of the Western Han Dynasty, it is written: He is a native of Taishan, and his family likes Huang Lao. He lives at the foot of Qianshan. Later, he made Huang San and Chi Wan, built Shifu Temple, and sold medicine in the city. He said he was 300 years old. Later, there was an epidemic, and tens of thousands of people died. Wen, the chief official, asked for help. Wen held a red banner and tied Huang San to the door. Those who drank the powder were cured, and tens of thousands of people were saved. Later, he sold Huang San in Shu. Therefore, the world treasure Cui Wenzi's red pills and Huang San are really close to gods!
If this is the world of immortals, Hao Shuai would not dare to send someone to bring Cui Wenzi. Fortunately, Cui Wenzi in the mythological world is an ordinary person with excellent medical skills, some martial arts and proficiency in divination.
As for why Cui Wenzi always appears on time when Yi Xiaochuan is in trouble in the plot, for example:
When Yi Xiaochuan was sick and dying, Cui Wenzi suddenly jumped out and saved Yi Xiaochuan's life.
When Yi Xiaochuan was feeling hopeless, Cui Wenzi suddenly appeared to enlighten him and taught him the skills of drunken boxing and drunken sword.
When Yi Xiaochuan was about to be beheaded for delaying the construction period, Cui Wenzi suddenly appeared again and cured the poisoned craftsman.
When Yi Xiaochuan was building the Yunding Palace, Cui Wenzi suddenly appeared again and gave Yi Xiaochuan a construction drawing of the Yunding Palace.
When Yi Xiaochuan needed the elixir of immortality, Cui Wenzi suddenly appeared again and had someone deliver the elixir of immortality to Yi Xiaochuan.
Every time Cui Wenzi appeared, Yi Xiaochuan was about to or was in bad luck.
Hao Shuai could only say that this was a coincidence, a will of heaven, and an arrangement by the screenwriter, otherwise he couldn't let the protagonist die early!
