As soon as he finished speaking, the air in the prison suddenly became quiet, and the sound of the silver needle falling to the ground was clearly audible.
Fusu glanced at Li Si. He was extremely nervous at the moment. Was his father's identity that he had managed to conceal so easily discovered by Fusu?
And once Ran Fang recognizes Li Si, won't all his previous efforts be over?
Li Si was calmer than Fusu, although he was a little surprised and curious about where his flaw was.
In the end, it was Li Si who took the lead to break the embarrassment.
I saw him laughing "hahaha", and then he took the initiative to explain.
"How about a high position? I'm just serving as a small official in Xianyang City. It's not a big official position."
Fusu also breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. In any case, it was a reason.
Fusu didn't know if Ran Fang believed it at this time. He was holding two handfuls of sweat in his hands and his heartbeat was getting faster and faster.
Ran Fang smiled and looked at Li Si in front of him without answering, with obvious distrust in his eyes.
After two seconds, he suddenly chuckled, the expression on his face became much more casual, looked at Li Si and said, "That's it." "
"But I think your husband has extraordinary bearing, and every move reveals his heroism. He will definitely achieve great things in the future."
These words were very meaningful. Li Si was slightly stunned. Did Ran Fang see his identity?
I just thought about it for a long time and still didn't understand the situation.
In desperation, Li Si could only respond with a smile: "Thank you for your good advice, if it is true in the future as you said, I will definitely come to thank you."
Ran Fang changed into a relaxed posture, half-lying there, and said something meaningful: "Then I will take it seriously. Sir, don't forget your promise then."
This time it was Li Si's turn to be silent. He did not continue talking about this matter.
Instead, he changed the topic and asked seemingly casually: "I wonder what crime you have committed, sir, and why are you here?"
Ran Fang did not pursue the question, but glanced at Fusu beside him, and said with a sad tone: "Like Mr. Su, I am also a Confucian sect."
Li Si understood this sentence.
He nodded, indicating that there was no need to say the rest, he understood.
I was just a little confused and asked: "At that time, His Majesty ordered the release of Confucian scholars, why was Mr. not released?"
Ran Fang became angry when he talked about this, and felt a little resentful in his heart. The expression on his face changed slightly. He looked at Li Si and said angrily: "I was expected to go out, but I don't know where I offended the prime minister. He decreed that he should remain in this prison."
Hearing what Ran Fang said, Li Si was stunned for a moment, wondering when he had given such an order?
Could it be that his subordinates made their own decisions?
Before he could figure it out, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Fusu lowering his head in embarrassment, and he immediately understood that this must be His Majesty's words.
After figuring out the key, he nodded slightly: "I see, the Prime Minister is still such a small-minded person. It's a bit unreasonable to embarrass a little Confucian scholar like you."
Fusu looked at Li Si in surprise. This man actually took the initiative to speak ill of him?
Ran Fang, on the other hand, had a surprised expression on his face when he heard what Li Si said, and then he understood that this person was probably also from the Confucian sect.
Then he could speak more boldly, so he continued Li Si's words and said: "Sir, I am just a Confucian scholar. If I say it offends me, it is just because my words may be a little extreme. The prime minister actually bent the law for personal gain and locked me in Xianyang Prison for a long time." , it’s really too much!”
"If I can be released from prison, I will definitely talk to him about it. Why does the dispute between Confucianism and Legalism have to be resolved in prison?"
"Sir, do you think what I said is right?"
Seeing Ran Fang talking endlessly about his opinions, Li Si didn't feel a trace of anger, and even found it a little funny. This was the first time someone dared to say that to his face, and even asked for his opinion.
He also had an angry expression on his face, "What you said is true!"
"The Prime Minister has gone too far, and everyone in the world must condemn him!"
Seeing that Li Si was more excited than himself and even wanted to go to the Prime Minister, Ran Fang couldn't help but look at him a few more times, thinking that this person wouldn't go to the Prime Minister in anger after being released from prison, right?
After thinking about it, he changed his tone and said, "It doesn't have to be like this. Although I have some opinions about the Prime Minister, after all, Prime Minister Li Si is also a hero of the Qin Dynasty and a representative of Legalism. From his standpoint, these things are Unmistakable.”
As soon as these words came out, not only Li Si, but also Fusu was stunned.
None of them expected that Ran Fang, who was so indignant about what he just said, would still follow Li Si's words now.
In particular, Li Si was a Legalist. Although he did not have such a big hatred against the Confucian sect, the Confucian sect and the Legalist sect had always been at odds with each other. It was rare to hear words of praise for Li Si from a Confucian scholar.
Li Si looked at Ran Fang with a look of disapproval, even a hint of blame.
"Sir, as a Confucian, do you still want to say good things for the Legalists?"
Hearing Li Si's sharp tone, Ran Fang knew that he was also a member of the Confucian sect, and wondered why there were all pedantic people in this Confucian sect?
"Sir, you're wrong. I'm not saying good things for Legalists. I'm just seeking truth from facts. After all, the achievements of Legalists are there. It's just that the current Legalist system is no longer suitable for the development of the Qin Dynasty. But Legalists and the Prime Minister His achievements are there."
"At the beginning, Qin Xiaogong supported Shang Yang's reform, which strengthened Qin's national power and laid the foundation for Qin's later unification of the world. This is the credit of Legalism, and there is no doubt."
"It's just that since the founding of the Qin Dynasty, the DPRK has wanted to promote the system and culture of the Qin Dynasty to the old lands of the Six Kingdoms. However, the cultures of each country are different. Naturally, some policies cannot be accepted by the people and nobles, which will definitely lead to other conflicts and contradictions. If the Legalists persist, it will definitely be detrimental to the unification of Qin."
"How many years have passed since the fall of Qi State, and this problem has still not been solved. If it is allowed to develop, it will definitely become more serious, and then the Qin Dynasty will be in a situation of life and death."
"That's why I said that although the Prime Minister's approach is a bit biased, he is right from the perspective of safeguarding Legalism. From the perspective of the future development of Da Qin, he is wrong."
Ran Fang's words made Fusu and Li Si think deeply. They had never thought that the dispute between the Legalists and the Confucians would affect the rise and fall of the Qin Dynasty.
Although Li Si didn't believe what Ran Fang said, he had to say that what he just said did reveal the crux of the matter.
Especially now, His Majesty released the Confucian scholars without any warning and asked them to participate in the revision of books. Is this a signal?
"In your opinion, sir, if your Majesty puts more emphasis on Confucian scholars, Da Qin's current problems can be solved?"
