Li Si's eyes sharpened, and he looked at Ran Fang with a strong sense of scrutiny, but then he returned to normal, as if it was not him just now.
He raised the corner of his mouth and said softly: "I heard that my husband mentioned this matter about the school. He must be very familiar with it."
"Now that this errand has fallen on my head, I naturally have something to ask sir for advice."
"Your Majesty has only given a rough outline of what is going on in this school, but I am not familiar with any of the things involved. Do you have any good advice, sir?"
"Or is there anything I should pay attention to?"
"How about telling me as much as possible so that His Majesty won't blame you in the future?"
When he first proposed to build a school, Ran Fang just wanted to give the children of the common people a place to study and become literate.
This will not only give them a chance to choose life, but it will also be a good thing for the future development of Da Qin.
But now that Li Si asked, he had another idea. Since he wanted to give them a chance to choose life, why should they only be able to read and write?
Wouldn't it be better if you had a skill and taught them to understand things?
"This school thing was just a whim of mine. I wanted those Guizhou leaders who could only immerse themselves in farm work to get a new opportunity."
"Nowadays, the Qin Dynasty is full of waste and needs the help of talents in many places, so naturally this school cannot simply teach some knowledge."
"Therefore, the master in this school should be chosen from hundreds of schools, so that the master can choose the right candidate, and the students can also have the opportunity to choose the one that suits them."
"Even if they don't have the right skills, they can at least be able to read and understand."
"His Majesty happens to be revising books. Taking this opportunity, we can also let Baijia write books that can be used in the school. It just kills two birds with one stone."
"What do you think, Prime Minister?"
Hearing this, Li Si couldn't help but nodded, and had to say that Ran Fang's words still made sense.
Although he has selfish motives, what he hopes most in his heart is to see Da Qin become better, and Da Qin's Guizhou become better.
Now that Ran Fang has said this, he still agrees with it in his heart, but it's just a matter of this school...
"Sir, what you said makes sense."
"It's just... the things involved are a bit too complicated. I'm already old now, so I'm afraid I'm a little out of my depth on this matter."
"Since sir is so familiar with this matter, why not..."
"No," before Li Si could finish his last words, Ran Conveniently interrupted him, not giving him a chance to say it out.
If he said this out loud, it would be a bit unreasonable for him to refuse. Not only was Li Si's official position still higher than his, but such a straightforward refusal would be offended.
Even if I don't care, I don't like this kind of thing.
Seeing that Li Si was a little unhappy, he continued: "This matter is for the benefit of the Qin Dynasty. I have just joined the court as an official, how can I take away the credit from the Prime Minister?"
"What's more, this matter is just what His Majesty has said. How can it be changed overnight?!"
"If this reaches His Majesty's ears, wouldn't it mean that His Majesty would blame me?"
"Since the Prime Minister has a lot of questions about the school, I will write a booklet and write down all the things in the school in detail."
"If there is anything you don't understand at that time, the Prime Minister will just send someone to deliver a message, and I will personally go and answer the questions for the Prime Minister."
Ran Fang had already reached this point and brought up Ying Zheng. If Li Si said it again, it would be disobedience.
At this moment, Li Si maintained a smile on his face, but he was holding back a lot of anger in his heart, but he didn't know how to vent it.
"It seems that sir has a plan in mind."
"It's different from what I thought. What a pity."
"In that case, I won't stay anymore."
"It's just... if you encounter something in Xianyang City in the future, you can still go to me, and I am willing to help you once again regardless of the past grudges."
"I just don't know if I have that chance."
After saying that, Li Si stood up, flicked his sleeves and left.
It can be seen from his back that he is indeed very angry this time, and his attitude is different from every time he came to see Ran Fang before.
Even after returning to the mansion, the anger on Li Si's face did not dissipate.
He sat in the mansion and slapped it on the table, causing the water glass on the table to ripple slightly.
"Ignorant kid, how dare you argue with me like this!"
“I really don’t know the heights of the world!”
Li Yuan, who was standing next to him, could feel the anger on Li Si. Although he didn't know what happened, the person in the court who could make Li Si so angry and still be called a "child" would only be able to do so as long as the momentum in the court is normal. Ran Fang was so prosperous.
He bowed and lowered his head, and said very respectfully: "Sir, this Ran Fang is now very powerful in the court, and with the business he does in the city, he is very trusted by His Majesty."
"If this continues for a long time, I'm afraid I won't take the master seriously in the future."
"It's better to kill him before his wings are full..."
As he spoke, Li Yuan made a gesture of wiping his neck. It could be seen from his fierce eyes that he must have done this kind of thing often.
But Li Si shook his head. There were many capable people around Ran Fang, and Ying Zheng valued him so much. If something happened to Ran Fang, no one in the court would be able to escape.
"No."
"Now that Ran Fang is not someone who can be dealt with casually."
"However, this does not prevent me from finding something for him to do."
Li Yuan's face showed a smile that was determined to win. He nodded quickly and said: "It's better for you to think carefully."
"If His Majesty loses trust in him, wouldn't you just leave it to the master's disposal?"
Hearing this, Li Si showed a smile on his face, with a faint murderous intention.
Non-my family, its heart must be different.
Naturally, he would not keep anyone who could not be used by Li Si.
The polite attitude towards Ran Fang at the beginning was simply because he wanted to win over Ran Fang so that things would be easier for him in the future.
Now that he knew Ran Fang's thoughts, he would never let Ran Fang go.
"This matter is not urgent for the time being. Since I have agreed to the school matter, I will not let anyone talk about it."
"If Ran Fang is touched now, it will inevitably make people suspect that it is related to me."
"The most important thing now is the matter of the salt merchants in Zhang Han."
"Send someone to find Zhang Han. Tell him that I have something to discuss with him and ask him to go to the Xichuan Tea House tomorrow to discuss it."
After following Li Si for so long, Li Yuan knew very clearly about many things he did.
Therefore, I also understand his purpose of wanting to see Zhang Han.
But making an appointment with Zhang Han at Xichuan Tea House is a bit hard to understand.
He hesitated a little and said, "Master, that's Ran Fang's place. If the conversation was overheard, wouldn't it be a bad thing?"
Li Si smiled coldly and said slowly: "Just under Ran Fang's nose, I want to see what he is capable of?"
