Ran Fang looked at Fusu, shook his head slightly, and sighed softly.

"Young master is wrong."

Hearing this, Fusu was stunned for a moment.

wrong? Where did you go wrong?

After hesitating for a moment, Fusu asked: "May I ask, sir, what did the student do wrong?"

Ran Fang's expression was as usual, and he did not feel any displeasure because of Fusu's questioning. He just handed Fusu a cup of tea and said, "Young master, you are wrong. You are putting the cart before the horse."

"Replying books and solving the sufferings of people all over the world are actually the same thing."

"Young master, please note that the purpose of compiling books is to unify the world's thoughts, and to make the people regard Qin as their country. This is fundamental!"

"But..." Fusu frowned, lowered his head and pondered for a moment, and then said, "But now that the people are suffering, shouldn't this matter be resolved first?"

"At that time, even if there are no books, won't the people in this world return to the Qin Dynasty?"

Ran Fang smiled and said, "Young Master cares about the people. If he becomes an official, he will be a blessing to the people in the world."

Before Fusu could be happy, he heard Ran Fang say again, "But if the young master is the master of the world, it will be a disaster for the people."

Fusu was shocked, but he didn't expect that Ran Fang would comment on him like this.

Isn't this mocking him for not knowing how to be a king?

But Fusu knew that Ran Fang did not know his identity, and his words were just unintentional, but it was obvious that what Ran Fang wanted to say was the way to be a king.

As a descendant of Ying Zheng, no matter how benevolent Fu Su is, he still has the qualities that an imperial disciple should have.

"Please give me some advice, sir!"

Ran Fang did not continue the topic. He sat there and filled a cup of tea for himself. He pursed his lips and said, "Before I give you any advice, I have something to ask you."

"Sir, please speak."

Ran Fang smiled and said, "Master, do you know why Your Majesty has to go on tour four times?"

"This..." Fusu was stunned for a moment, and then hesitantly said: "Your Majesty went on tour to inspect the world."

Ran Fang changed into a comfortable posture and explained to him: "This is only half correct. The remnants of the Six Kingdoms' old land are watching with eager eyes, and even the old Six Kingdoms are still gathering people's hearts, hoping to find the right opportunity to deliver a fatal blow to Da Qin. "

"Your Majesty's tour of the world is, in the final analysis, just to frighten the remnants of the six kingdoms."

Fusu was slightly startled. What he just said was just what the courtiers said.

But in the eyes of Confucian scholars and myself, my father's tour of the world is a waste of people and money!

He had never thought that his father's tour had such a meaning!

Seeing Fu Su in a daze, Ran Fang smiled slightly and continued: "The world doesn't understand the reason. They just think that His Majesty is wasting people and money, but this is also a helpless move."

"The reason for this situation is simply that His Majesty cannot win over the people of the six countries."

"Then, in my opinion, the book repair and the people must be taken into consideration at the same time, but how should we grasp this scale?"

Ran Fang looked at Fusu helplessly, why didn't this man understand anything?

He shook his head and said: "The purpose of revising the book is to solve the problem fundamentally, and to let the people always remember that this world belongs to the Qin Dynasty and is a unified world."

"The second thing is to do more things like Zheng Guo Canal that benefit the country and the people. The old lands of the Six Kingdoms are in ruins and waiting for redevelopment. Your Majesty only needs to slightly divert resources to the old lands of the Six Kingdoms, and you can win over a lot of people."

"For example, in the process of compiling books, we sorted out the Mohist theory and the peasant theory that benefited the country and the people. They were widely spread in the old lands of the Six Kingdoms and supported the people to cultivate their bodies and minds. This was also a suitable move for book compilation."

"And this is also the main purpose of repairing books!"

"In this way, we not only gain fame for His Majesty, but also gain benefits for the people. Isn't it the best of both worlds?"

"Although it takes a long time to compile the book, it can subtly change the thinking of the old people of the Six Kingdoms in rejecting the Qin Dynasty."

"When the time comes, and with the government's decree to benefit the old people of the Six Kingdoms, how can the world not be united?"

“If one of these two is missing, you will get twice the result with half the effort.”

"That's why I said that the young master was wrong and shouldn't favor one person over another."

After hearing this, Fusu admired Ran Fang even more.

If what Ran Fang said can really be implemented, it will also solve the father's biggest problem!

"Sir, this plan is very clever. If you can serve as an official in the court with your talents, it will be a blessing to our great Qin Dynasty."

Ran Fang laughed.

Don't look at the current situation. Now he can't even get out of this small prison, and he has offended the current Prime Minister Li Si, and he still wants to enter the court to worship the prime minister?

Isn't that just rushing to kill people?

"Young Master is joking. In my capacity, I'm afraid it's inappropriate to talk about this matter."

Fusu smiled sarcastically.

“Da Qin is so lucky to have Mr.



It was dark at night, but the Xianyang Hall was still bright.

On Ying Zheng's desk, there is a pile of bamboo slips, which are the daily letters of advice from ministers.

But what is now in front of Ying Zheng is a special bamboo slip, which records every word and deed of Fusu and Ran Fang in prison today in great detail.

Ying Zheng looked very carefully, fearing that he would miss any details.

When he saw the two of them talking about book repair, he frowned slightly and read more slowly.

Especially when he saw Ran Fang mentioning Zheng Guoqu, his heart moved slightly, which gave him a wake-up call.

Although there are some practical aspects of the book revisions of these hundreds of schools, most of them are theoretical and how to be an official.

There are indeed too few books on agriculture.

"Zhao Gao, please visit Zhengguo."

"Here."

Although this Zheng Guo official had a small official position, he was deeply loved by Ying Zheng and had a close relationship with Li Si.

Since the unification of the Qin Dynasty, Zheng Guo's life has become much more leisurely, and his interactions with officials in the DPRK have also decreased a lot.

Suddenly being summoned to the palace by His Majesty late at night, he was still a little excited. Is Your Majesty planning to dig a canal somewhere?

But why hadn't he heard anything about it before?

At the same time, I was also complaining in my heart. I heard a few days ago that His Majesty summoned Meng Yi at this time, and when Meng Yi came out of the Shaofu, he looked very haggard.

Now that His Majesty has summoned him into the palace, he shouldn't end up like this, right?

With an anxious mood, Zheng Guo entered the Xianyang Palace, knelt in the middle of the hall, and said, "Greetings to Your Majesty."

"Get up."

Zheng Guo stood up respectfully, then saluted Ying Zheng and said, "I wonder what the purpose of your Majesty's summoning ministers to come late at night?"

"You must also know about the book repair."

As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Guo immediately knelt on the ground, lowered his head nervously and said, "I have heard about this, but I only know how to build canals and farm fields. I can't help your majesty by repairing books. It is really my fault!"

Ying Zheng has always been tolerant towards Zheng Guo, and he was not angry when he heard what he said, but just smiled slightly.

"I asked you to come here not to repair books, but because I want you to write books."

"Write a book?" Zheng Guo then raised his head, not daring to wipe the sweat from his head. He knelt there and asked carefully, "What book does Your Majesty want me to write?"

"The Book of Farming."

"But..." Zheng Guo hesitated. Although he had helped the agricultural development of Da Qin, it was only to build canals, and he did not fully understand other agricultural aspects.

"I have never written a book, this matter..."

Before he could say the next words, Ying Zheng raised his hand and interrupted the next words, "I understand."

"As for book repair, you can go to Xianyang Prison and ask Fusu. He can help you solve the problem."

"Remember, your true identity must not be revealed in prison."
