Chapter 67: Things about Chunyu Yue (Part 2)
When Fusu heard this, he suddenly felt guilty towards Ying Zheng and began to feel disgust towards Chunyu Yue.
But he quickly dispelled his disgust.
After all, Chunyu Yue has taught him for many years. Confucianism has always been his belief in his heart. Now that his belief has been overthrown, he is very unwilling.
"Sir, you are indeed right. The First Emperor was indeed tolerant of Mr. Chunyu Yue. However, this does not prove that Mr. Chun Yuyue left a bad reputation in history.
This can only prove that the First Emperor was very tolerant of Mr. Chun Yuyue. In the end, killing Chun Yuyue may have been forced. This has nothing to do with Mr. Chun Yuyue leaving a bad name in history. "
"Sir, it doesn't seem to have much to do with it." Li Si followed.
Chunyu Yue is Li Si's good friend. Although the two have different ideas, at least the friendship is still there, and at least Li Si treats Chun Yuyue well.
Qin An sighed and said: "Then let me talk about the third thing. People say that the greater the knowledge, the stronger the ability.
Some people can work in the living room or in the kitchen, and they can thrive in everything.
For example, Li Si made great contributions to the unification of the Qin Dynasty, and finally became the prime minister of the dynasty, which was very glorious.
However, the more books some people read, the easier it is for them to become obsessed with their own ideas, rely on their own loftiness, and become dogmatic.
Chunyu Yue is the best example. "
"Sir, how can you talk about this?" Fusu asked in a deep voice.
Qin An sneered and said: "A rotten Confucian scholar did not have the ambition to rejuvenate the motherland by lying on his salary, nor did he not eat Qin's millet after the country was destroyed. However, he single-handedly added fuel to the flames and strengthened Qin Shihuang's determination to "burn books and entrap Confucians". He tricked his students completely, and eventually tricked himself into the guillotine.
Do you think Chunyu Yue was obsessed with evil spirits, tricking people into being insane? "
Fusu understood that the student was being tortured to death, and he was talking about himself.
Before meeting Qin An and knowing his fate, Fusu would never admit it. However, now he feels that Qin An's words still make some sense.
"Please also explain in detail how Mr. Chun Yuyue deceives people."
Ying Zheng said angrily: "You still call him sir?"
Everyone knew that the man Ying Zheng was referring to was Chunyu Yue.
Fusu didn't speak, just stared at Qin An.
Qin An smiled bitterly and said: "Hey, since you want to know, I will tell you in detail.
First of all, he spoke regardless of the occasion. As I said just now, when the First Emperor was hosting a banquet and everyone was praising the First Emperor, he stood up to deny the First Emperor's county system. Don't you think it's too much?
He was a Qi man whose country was destroyed by the Qin State. He worked as an official in the Qin State and received a salary. He ate and drank Qin Shi Huang's banquets, but he still denied Qin Shi Huang's political achievements and said that his colleagues who flattered Qin Shi Huang were not loyal ministers.
People would pick up the bowl to eat and then put down the bowl to scold their mother. Chunyu Yue was better, so he picked up the bowl and started to scold his mother!
Is this something humans do?
But, do you think Chunyu Yue was not a loyal minister? Those who can contradict someone on such occasions generally regard themselves as loyal ministers.
I won't judge whether he is loyal to his ministers or not, but he is really pretending to be noble. He is unscrupulous in criticizing others.
Secondly, he never talks about emotions when doing things. "
"That shows that he is upright." Fusu said.
"I think you are pedantic. You are obsessed with reading. I think you, Fusu, are almost obsessed with reading." Qin An said.
"Chun Yuyue and Li Si are close friends."
As soon as Qin An spoke, everyone looked at Li Si.
Li Si said awkwardly: "My ancestors did have friendship with Chunyu Yue."
Then he looked at Qin An with resentful eyes: Why are you making trouble with me again?
"Li Si advocated the system of prefectures and counties, but Chunyu Yue advocated the system of enfeoffment. Everyone knows this, so I won't go into details.
Both of them had their own opinions, which they ignored at first.
But Chunyu Yue often opposed Li Si. Can such a friend still sit down? Qin An asked.
"But Mr. Chunyu Yue did nothing wrong. What's wrong with advocating his own point of view?" Fusu asked.
"It's right to advocate your own opinions, but you can't challenge Li Si's authority over and over again.
Since the two of them are good friends, shouldn't they show some respect to each other? But Chunyu Yue never had this idea and repeatedly provoked Li Si.
As the saying goes, all clay Bodhisattvas have three parts of fire, so at the banquet, Li Si proposed on the spot to abolish all the theories of scholars, to use officials as teachers, to prohibit private schools without permission, to slander the present with the past, and to slander the government with private studies. The First Emperor immediately agreed. .
The day after the banquet, book burnings were ignited across the country. In less than 30 days, all the classical documents from before the Qin Dynasty were reduced to ashes.
Tell me, so many classical documents are gone. Should Chun Yuyue be responsible for this?
It's a pity that the blame for burning books and entrapping Confucianism fell on the First Emperor in the end. There was no way, who made the First Emperor his leader. "
Ying Zheng said angrily: "It turns out that I...my ancestors are also responsible for the infamy of this family."
Qin An said: "Village chief, please calm down. It's been two thousand years since this happened. Don't pay too much attention to it. Let's continue talking about Chunyu Yue.
Although Li Si taught Chun Yuyue a lesson by burning books and entrapping Confucians, but lessons are lessons, Li Si still cared about friendship and saved Chun Yuyue from the furious Qin Shihuang, allowing him to resign and return home.
As a friend, Li Si can be said to be the most benevolent, but it is a pity that Chunyu Yue does not appreciate it. Chunyu Yue only cares about his own emotions. Any friend or relationship, as long as I don't deal with it, is all nonsense!
This is such a selfish person.
Zhao Su, you learned from Chunyu Yue. Fortunately, you have not become selfish, otherwise your future will not be so bright. "
Fusu pursed his lips and said nothing.
Seeing that Fusu didn't answer, Qin An continued: "Chun Yuyue likes to express himself very much. The more he is looked down upon, the more he wants to express himself. He speaks regardless of the occasion and does things without asking whether he is right or wrong. When his mood comes, he becomes his biological father. Everyone has to step aside.
Although Chunyu Yue was dismissed from his official position, he was still Fusu's teacher.
So he began to use his connections to directly oppose the burning of books and humiliation of Confucian scholars, and showed his determination to fight against the First Emperor and Li Si.
After receiving the news, the First Emperor felt that there was something wrong with Chunyu Yue's brain, and it was absolutely impossible for Fusu to continue studying with him.
In addition, Fusu happened to plead for those Confucian scholars, which angered the First Emperor, so the First Emperor used this excuse to drive Fusu to the border, intending to ask Meng Tian to teach him so that Fusu could be more decisive and ruthless.
Without Fusu standing in the way of Xianyang City, the First Emperor directly ordered Chunyu Yue to be killed.
But the First Emperor and Fusu would never know that because of Chunyu Yue's relationship, Fusu would be killed by Hu Hai, Da Qin Hui II would die, and the First Emperor's son and daughter would be killed by Hu Hai. "
