The speaker has a beard on his chin and a thin face. He is Yao Jia, a famous minister in Qin State.
A few years ago, Chu, Yan, Zhao, Han and other countries wanted to unite to deal with Qin. Ying Zheng summoned his ministers to discuss the matter, and Yao Jia volunteered to send envoys to the four countries.
In the end, Yao Jia fortunately lived up to his fate.
With a pair of sharp teeth and money and treasures, he stopped the four kingdoms from collaborating, eliminated an unforeseen catastrophe for Qin, and won Ying Zheng to be worshiped as his minister.
From this, we can see Yao Jia's ability of speaking.
Moreover, Li Si and Yao Jia were on a joint mission to South Korea, and the two of them brought Han Fei back together. He had experienced Yao Jia's power at close range, so how could he not be afraid of him.
"Brother Yao also wants to speak?" Li Sidao said.
If possible, he really didn't want to face Yao Jia.
First, the personal relationship between the two is pretty good.
The second is fear of Yao Jia.
Even with the perfect county system that Ying Chengyu gave him, Li Si didn't think he would win.
All schools of thought have their own strengths, and the specialty of famous scholars is debate!
The famous theory that a white horse is not a horse was put forward by a famous scholar.
"The great system in the world can be discussed by Tingwei, but not by Jia?"
The positions were different, and his descendants were involved for eternity, and Yao Jia had no intention of retreating.
Li Si took a deep breath and said, "Your Majesty, please speak."
"Jia asked, when will this Chi Road be completed?"
Li Si's expression changed.
He never expected that Yao Jiaqi was so astute, and he instantly saw the only flaw in his plan.
He could only say with a dark face, "As short as five years, as long as ten years."
"Jia thought that Tingwei would be able to complete the journey in five years with the help of gods and men. I dare to ask Tingwei, how can we explain the chaos that has occurred in the past five years?"
Yao Jia spoke neither hurriedly nor slowly, but pressed forward step by step. He had no intention of wanting Li Si to answer.
He did this not to compete with Li Si over a chidao issue, but to compete for enfeoffment.
"Now the princes are first defeated, the world is first settled, and the undercurrent of restoration is still surging. In terms of general trends, if there is trouble in the lands of Zhao, Wei, and Han, it is still possible to stay close to calm the chaos. However, the three lands of Yan, Qi, and Chu are remote and difficult to control. If there is an unexpected chaos, , Xianyang is beyond reach."
"The dangers at this time are similar to those at the beginning of the Zhou Dynasty's destruction of the Shang Dynasty. In order to stabilize the world, the Qin Dynasty should temporarily follow the rule of enfeoffment and enfeoff the emperor's princes as feudal princes to guard the remote border areas in order to stabilize the world. This is a temporary plan. .”
Yao Jia used retreat to advance. He did not say that the system of enfeoffment would be completely implemented, but that it would be temporarily enfeoffed.
But the land has been divided, and it is not that easy to come back.
"color!"
The officials cheered.
As soon as Yao Jia came out, the officials felt more confident. When it comes to words, few schools of thought can compete with the famous ones.
Li Si's heart sank heavily.
In fact, Yao Jia's remarks were not difficult for him, and he could refute them.
But it works this time, but what about next time?
This is the famous Yao Jia!
It's useless to think too much. No matter who stands in front of Si today or doesn't let Si become the prime minister, it won't work!
A sharp look flashed in his eyes, and he was about to speak.
An arrogant voice interrupted him.
"My steps are so majestic!"
Another Qin minister wearing Shangqing's clothes walked out. He was seven feet tall and his eyes were higher than his head. He faced Yao Jia.
Looking like that, he seemed to be going against the famous Yao Jia.
Li Sifu reached his heart and turned his head to look at Ying Cheng.
Seeing Ying Chengyu blinking at him, he felt reassured.
Today, Lord Chang'an is in the court, so he can sit back and relax.
…
A few breaths ago, when Yao Jia had just spoken, Ying Chengyu grabbed the official uniform of a Qin minister next to him and whispered: "Return the favor!"
When Qin Chen sat down, he was half a head shorter than Ying Chengyu. Hearing this, he whispered: "How can I pay it back?"
Ying Chengyu stared at the slow and leisurely Yao Jia.
"Do you remember the county system I told you about that day?"
Qin Chen looked unhappy.
"Li Sidu remembers it. What can't I remember? Who am I looking down on?"
"Then go ahead and get him!"
"Who? Yao Jia?"
"Yes, cash him out, you and I won't owe each other anything."
Qin Chen was silent.
Ying Chengxuan thought it was a refusal, because if the Qin Dynasty implemented the enfeoffment system, the Qin official next to him would definitely get a fiefdom based on merit.
"If you don't want to do it, forget it. Nai Gong doesn't like forcing others, I'll do it myself!"
"Can you argue with Yao Jia?"
"I shouldn't be able to argue, but I want to try." Ying Chengyu said with bright eyes: "For historical figures like you, I am very excited to compete with you in the fields you are good at."
"You are a historical figure! Can you speak human language? Every time you say some unknown words, which makes people angry." Qin Chen looked at Yao Jia and said proudly: "Read well and study hard. I am the one who is arguing about academics. If I’m not as good as you, I’m invincible in debate.”
He stood up slowly and said in words that only Ying Chengyu could hear: "I still owe you my life. This trip is not to repay your kindness, but to repay your kindness. As a minister of Qin, I have eaten Qin Lu , I should repay Qin's kindness. I wish there is only Da Qin and only China in this world."
…
Originally, Yao Jia's appearance had already made all the ministers overjoyed. They were so happy that they almost rose into the air, believing that they were sure of victory.
But the appearance of this seven-foot-tall proud Qin Chen made the mood of the officials drop to the bottom.
Because this Qin minister is called Dun Ruo.
Dunwei was an unruly political strategist at the end of the Warring States Period. He was famous for two things.
One of them saw that Ying Zheng refused to worship him and scolded Ying Zheng's imprisoned mother for being unfilial.
The second is to alienate the harmony between the kings and ministers of Zhao. He wants the king of Zhao to move to his own country and defeat Wang Jian, the war god of Qin, and to make it difficult for the Qin army to advance further. Zhao Wu'an Jun Li Mu.
The life trajectories of Dunruo and Yao Jia are highly similar.
Like Yao Jia, he also opened his mouth and the money given by Ying Zheng. Lobby the four countries, use words and money to break the alliance between the four countries.
The difference between Dunruo and Yao Jia is that the four countries he lobbied are different. He has fewer Chu and more Wei than Yao Jia.
The lobbying environment is also different. When Yao Jia travels, Ying Zheng blatantly sends gifts to him. Everyone in the world knows that Yao Jia is a minister of Qin, which is Ming Dynasty.
When Dun Rui traveled, Ying Zheng did not show up, nor did he admit that Dun Rui was a member of the Qin State. All countries regarded Dun Rui as a white body, which was dark.
Therefore, although the two men's achievements were to lobby the four countries.
But compared to Yao Jia, who wears a gold medal "valued by the King of Qin" to avoid death, Dun's weak situation is more dangerous.
"Dun Shangqing? Why did he confront Yao Shangqing?"
"The power of defeating the weak is enough to gain a fiefdom. How could he..."
"Another one like Li Si, madly mad!"
"..."
The ministers were whispering.
The faces of Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang, Feng Quji and others who had had in-depth exchanges with Yao Jia a few days ago changed.
No wonder we looked for Dunwei, but Dunwei disappeared. He actually didn't want to enfeoff. Now we can only see whether Yao Jia can argue...
"After the Warring States Period, the general trend of the world has become two types of governance: the feudal princes are one, and the prefectures and counties are one. Today, when you are talking about governance, you want to enfeoff first and then change it. If you are not naive and unreasonable, your mind is not right and your heart is not right. .”
"I dare to ask your Majesty: Once the world is unified and the dynasty is divided into prefectures and counties, when the prefectures and counties come out, can the princes give up the land and return their titles? Today, the court has no princes, but it is like this. At that time, it had many soldiers and strategists. Will you give up your wealth?"
Crazy, all crazy!
Zuo Xiang is crazy, Li Si is crazy, Dun Wen is also crazy!
Such things should be tacitly understood in the heart, how can we declare them with our mouths?
While they were speaking weakly and eloquently, the officials' faces became paler and paler, and they peeked at the First Emperor's expression from time to time.
The expression of the First Emperor was the same as before when Li Si said that he was going to repair the palace and the civilians in the imperial mausoleum went to repair the Chi Road. It was hard to tell whether he was happy or angry, and the officials were even more panicked.
Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang, Feng Quji and other top supporters of the feudal system also became increasingly disheartened.
They have a feeling that today, the county system should win.
Yao Jia's face was no longer calm, and this famous celebrity was turbulent in his heart.
It wasn't that Dunwei's words were so sharp that he couldn't resist, but that Dunwei dared to speak more than he did.
Dun Rui is just like Li Si, pointing at their noses and saying that they want to rebel in the future and don't act according to the rules.
"At that time, the world's princes were in charge of political affairs, and the world was in chaos. Do you want chaos? Do you want governance? Furthermore, the governance of the world should be determined based on the geographical distance and the difficulty of chaos. Those who are easy to govern are strict, and those who are difficult to govern are lenient. , is it not to condone the lawlessness of distant politics and cause chaos? How is the fairness of Qin's laws in governing like this! Where is the righteousness of heaven and earth!"
After Dun's weak argument, Yao Jia looked uncertain. He didn't think he was weaker than Dun.
But when it comes to debating, one person has concerns, and the other dares to say anything. When there is a big gap in level, they can still use technology to make up for it, such as him and Li Si.
But in a situation where the level is almost the same, for example, if he and Dun are weak, how can he win?
This is like playing King of Glory, Yao Jia, King Rank, with 0 inscriptions he can beat Li Si, who is in diamond rank and has 150 inscriptions.
But against someone who is at least the same king as him, and who is weak at 150 inscriptions, he will definitely lose.
Yao Jia actually has the intention to quit, but if it continues like this, it seems that he, Yao Jia, is too incompetent.
If I had known that Dunwei was on the side of the county system, I would not have responded to Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang, and Feng Quji's invitation.
Why bother coming to this old age when your reputation is not guaranteed?
"When King Wu of Zhou founded his country, his territory was only two million miles away. When the Qin Dynasty took over the world, its territory was seven million miles away. It expanded the territory more than three times, all of which were the result of enfeoffment."
Yao Jia's autonomy was bound to lose, but in order to preserve its reputation, it could not lose so quickly and had to continue exporting.
"Absurd! When King Wu of Zhou founded his country, he had a territory of two million miles. When the Qin Dynasty destroyed Zhou, Zhou only had one city, Luoyi. This is the result of enfeoffment!"
Without thinking, he replied bluntly.
He has never lost to anyone in debates in his life.
The debate between the two people recognized as the most eloquent people in Da Qin began.
The ministers held their breath. They all knew that this debate would determine the enfeoffment system and the prefecture and county system.
Even Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang, Feng Quji and others are like this, and they are obsessed with it.
But Ying Chengyu, who had been in high spirits just now, lost interest after listening to the first paragraph of Yao Jia's speech about Dun Rui.
Yao Jia's previous speech to Li Si was very aggressive.
But what I just said about Dunwei was just talking about the benefits of the enfeoffment system.
Based on this alone, Ying Chengyu knew that Yao Jia was timid.
Those who are timid will be defeated!
Ying Chengyu was not interested in a debate whose outcome was already known.
Listening to the heated argument between the two, Ying Chengyu looked at those Fa Sheng who were holding their breath.
When the matter has reached this point, Li Si has not yet allowed these legal students to participate in the discussion.
That proves that the imperial brother did not choose Fa Sheng as the legalist millennium development plan, and the collective brainstorming group proposed the option of counties.
Instead, they chose one country, two systems, with the prefectures and states running in parallel and issuing grace orders.
Now the more desperate these people are after being told that they are weak, the more grateful they will be when the counties and counties are launched in parallel and the grace order is pushed out later.
Not bad, perfectly meets my expectations.
Now we just have to wait for the Yao-Jia debate to end, and the ministers to ask the emperor to make a decision, and the emperor shows mercy.
I just don’t understand one thing. If this institutional problem is solved in this way, doesn’t it matter whether I am present or not?
What does the emperor want to do behind my back?
…
"Jia is speechless."
Yao Jia let out a long sigh and admitted defeat in this peaceful debate.
This long sigh was like the first falling card of a domino, triggering a chain reaction.
All the courtiers sighed deeply and looked at Li Si and Dun Rui with hatred.
It was these two people who ruined the eternal blessings of their descendants!
Dunruo smiled proudly and faced the First Emperor on the throne.
The First Emperor looked at Dunrui, with a gleam in his eyes, and said softly: "Dunrui, last time you taught me how to break the alliance, and I promised you the position of minister. Today you teach me how to govern the country, but if you ask for something, please do as much as you want. Come on."
Li Si wants to be the prime minister, so what do you want?
The ministers looked sideways, everyone was looking at Dunwei, and they also wanted to know. What exactly is the reward for using the blessings of their descendants for all eternity?
The First Emperor was never stingy in rewarding meritorious ministers, a fact that all Qin officials knew.
"Your Majesty, what do you want from me?"
Even when facing the First Emperor, he still did not change his arrogant nature.
In this Xianyang Palace, Dun Rui faced the First Emperor without raising his hand or saluting.
He put his hands behind his back, raised his face and looked directly at the First Emperor, and said loudly: "I am weak, I only have one thought, I hope there will be no more arbitrariness in this world! Is your majesty satisfied with being weak?"
