In the past, Li Xin didn't like to attend court meetings, because he was a rough man and a martial artist. He would not make any noise if he could do something.
However, this meeting was all about quoting scriptures, making lengthy arguments, quarreling, and arguing endlessly.
Li Xin would stare blankly every time and let those well-educated people talk endlessly.
And some confused thoughts kept flashing through Li Xin's mind: "Who is Liezi? What does Mozi do? Gongsun Long? How come I haven't heard of him at all?"
It's really embarrassing.
But today, Li Xin came early. Because this time he is full of confidence and wants to pick up the face that was thrown to the ground in the past.
Li Xin was the first to arrive. It didn't take long, and people came one after another.
After seeing Li Xin, several doctors were immediately elated, as if they had seen some rare birds and animals.
They stroked their beards and said to Li Xin: "General Li arrived very early. I wonder what he has to say this time?"
Li Xin hummed twice: "I have a good opinion, but I will only report it to the king and not tell anyone else."
Another doctor chuckled and said: "The title of 'First King' proposed by General Li last time was so exciting and breathtaking. I wonder if I can be unique again this time."
The doctors around burst into laughter.
The doctor asked excitedly before: "General Li, what title will you give this time?"
Li Xin said nothing.
The doctor shook his head and said, "I have drafted some titles based on General Li's style, but I don't know if they suit your taste."
Li Xin said nothing.
The doctors all asked, "What title have you chosen for General Li?"
The doctor said before: "For example: The First King in the World? Well... this title is a little too long, how about calling it: King of Heaven and Earth?"
The doctors laughed so much that they shed tears. They all held their stomachs and beat their chests.
After laughing for a while, a doctor reacted first, hissed and said: "Be careful, be careful. A gentleman talks but never touches."
As soon as this was said, the doctors all fell silent.
They seemed to have just remembered that General Li Xin was a reckless man. If they disagree, they will take action. Today he was laughed at by everyone. What if he became angry because of the shame?
The doctors are all gentlemen, and even one of them might not be able to defeat him.
However, Li Xin was very calm today. Even if he was ridiculed, he did not blush or glare. Instead, he looked at everyone with a calm expression, as if he were looking at a group of clowns.
The doctors were a little puzzled. Li Xin's performance looked very confident. Could it be that he thought of a suitable name?
Impossible, impossible. A martial artist who only knows how to dance with a spear and a stick can come up with a title, so why does he need a doctor? What else do you need all the schools of thought to do? Just burn the poems and books and go practice martial arts.
At this time, Chunyu Yue came over. Those doctors are all honest.
Chunyu Yue was a great scholar of the time and the teacher of Master Fusu. He was already considered the leader of the doctors.
Everyone knew about his relationship with Li Xin, so they would not make fun of Li Xin in front of him.
Although Chunyu Yue often scolded Li Xin, he was his own family. It’s okay to say whatever your own family members say, but not others.
After Chunyu Yue arrived, he glanced at Li Xin and whispered: "Don't speak today, just listen to the discussion."
Li Xin said unconvinced: "Dr. Chunyu, why do you order me?"
Chunyu Yue's lungs hurt a little from anger: "Li Xin, don't be ignorant. If it weren't for Li Ji's sake, I wouldn't bother to care about you."
At this time, a young eunuch said loudly: "The king has arrived, and the court meeting has begun."
So these officials all calmed down and lined up their queues.
Ying Zheng sat at the top and said a little tiredly: "We have been discussing the title for some time, but has there been any result?"
A doctor stood up and said: "The titles are nothing more than Wang, Emperor Qin, and Emperor Tai. Today's endless debates are all about these three titles."
Ying Zheng said with some distress: "It's these three names again. You are always at odds with each other, but each has his own opinion. When will the discussion come to a result? Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?"
At this time, Li Xin seized the opportunity and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the general has some ideas."
Chunyu Yue was shocked and angry, and shouted in a low voice: "Li Xin, go back. Don't show your ugliness."
Li Xin frowned and said, "I haven't spoken yet, how did you know that I was going to make a fool of myself?"
Chunyu Yue's face was ashen and he said: "This is to determine the honorary title. A well-educated man cannot yet make a final decision. You are a martial artist, what can you do with it?"
Li Xin said loudly: "Since the name has been decided and the warrior can't help, why do I and other generals still stand here and act as wooden stakes?"
As soon as these words came out, the generals nodded repeatedly. It was obvious that Li Xin's words had reached their hearts.
However, military commanders are not monolithic. For example, Wang Ben, Wang Li and his son.
Wang Li said with a smile: "Originally, military generals can participate in discussions, but there are always vulgar generals like General Li who speak randomly. The so-called mouse droppings ruin a pot of soup. General Li stands here and lets all those civil and military officials The talented general is a little inferior."
These words were a clear scolding of Li Xin: You have embarrassed the general, get out of here.
Li Xin was furious, pointed at Wang Li and said: "You recommended the rebel Lu Lie, and you don't know the person well. Why don't you remove yourself from office and leave the court? What do you think of standing here?"
Wang Li was a little speechless and explained: "The general has already given ten thousand gold and apologized to General Li. Could it be that General Li has forgotten?"
Li Xin sneered and said: "You gave me ten thousand gold, but you lost the bet on your life. Ten thousand gold is the money to buy your life. And you recommended improperly, and you haven't been punished yet."
Wang Li had nothing to say.
Wang Ben bowed his hands to Ying Zheng and said: "I would like to punish Quan Zi with an appropriate crime. He will be fined one year's salary according to the law."
Ying Zheng said calmly: "Yun."
Then, Ying Zheng looked at Li Xin and said, "What do you think about the appointment of the title? Feel free to tell me."
Li Xin agreed and said: "The title proposed by the general is only two characters. In addition to the title of Da Qin, it may be three characters."
The ministers laughed.
This Li Xin is really unique.
When others draw up their honorific titles, they are just the words Wang, Emperor, Huang, etc., with the word Qin and the word Tai in front of them as modifications.
Fortunately for him, he just said two words.
The "number one king" last time was weird enough. how? He hasn't learned his lesson yet?
When Li Xin saw that the name hadn't been spoken yet, but only the number of words, everyone laughed like this. Suddenly I felt a little unsure.
He bit the bullet and said, "Don't be biased. Yes, I, Li Xin, am a martial artist, but this title was negotiated between me and Huaiguzi. Huaiguzi has unique skills and is a great man in the world. He helped me choose it. Is there anything wrong with the name I decided on?"
As soon as these words came out, the courtier laughed even harder.
who? Sophora millet? Is that the alchemist who failed in alchemy and almost demolished the alchemy room?
Yes, he was lucky enough to cure Mr. Fu Yao. Even if he has great medical skills, even if he really dreams of immortals.
But this man acted recklessly and spoke vulgarly. I heard that he had beaten other alchemists twice today.
What good title can such a person come up with?
Even Ying Zheng was somewhat disapproving. He was convinced of Huaiguzi's ability, but Huaiguzi was far behind in terms of literacy and even etiquette.
