Li Shui's countermeasures were eye-opening to the people of Qin. Yingzheng Longyan was so happy that he directly named Li Shui as the first grade A grade.
Li Shui smiled slightly, turned to Li Si and said, "Master Li, you can give me your title and reward now."
Li Si's face turned red, it was a shame and a great humiliation. This was a great shame and humiliation.
Just now Li Si said with a smile that he could give up his title and rewards. That was just to show his generosity and win a good reputation for himself.
Do you really want to give up the titles and rewards you have obtained now? That was simply embarrassing.
Fortunately, Ying Zheng still valued Li Si very much. Seeing his awkward look, he immediately smiled and said to Li Shui: "Huai Guzi, since you are number one, then Li Si is number two. Li Sijue will be promoted to a higher level and given a daughter." . I will upgrade you to two ranks and give you two thousand gold. What do you think?"
Li Shui immediately asked with interest: "After being promoted to two levels, what title will I have?"
Ying Zheng looked at Ji Ming.
Ji Ming said a little embarrassed: "Well... Huaiguzi didn't have a title before."
Among the courtiers, some showed expressions of dumbfounding.
Many people are thinking: "Huai Guzi, is an alchemist also worthy of a title? Now, I will give you a two-level promotion and start from Shangzao. Although Shangzao is also a title, it is too low. , some brave soldiers in the army cut off a few heads, and they became Shangzao. Now, it is an unprecedented miracle that Huaiguzi enters the court to discuss politics with the title of Shangzao."
Ying Zheng also felt that something was wrong. After thinking about it, he said, "That's all. After all, Huaiguzi has a genius, so I'm going to make an exception. I'll give you the rank of Five Doctors, officially a doctor, and permission to enter the court to discuss politics."
Everyone looked envious: "Fifth Doctor, if you take one more step forward, it will be you. To be honest, the title of Fifth Doctor is not too high. But the key is that this Huaiguzi has reached the sky in one step."
When everyone was envious, Li Shui suddenly said: "May I ask, what are the titles of these five doctors? Are they high?"
Everyone was speechless.
Ying Zheng was also a little helpless: "I made an unusual appointment and promoted him to nine levels in a row. I thought he would burst into tears with gratitude, but I didn't expect... this person doesn't understand titles at all."
Li Xin said with a smile: "It's not low anymore, I'm about to catch up with Chunyu Yue."
When Li Shui heard this, he suddenly smiled.
Chunyu Yue's face was ashen and he said: "Congratulations to Mr. Huai. Today I obtained the title and became a doctor. I will be able to join the court to discuss politics in the future. However... Mr. Huai must learn Chinese calligraphy as soon as possible. How can I discuss politics if I don't know the characters?"
Li Shui said calmly: "My last countermeasure is related to this."
Chunyu Yue was stunned for a moment: "Is there any countermeasure?"
Li Shui talked eloquently: "After more than five hundred years of war in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, all the princes in the world were in charge of their own affairs. Even the writing has changed. I am from Chu, so I don't understand small seal characters. I guess you may not be able to understand Chu writing. .”
"Not only the words, but also the measures, quantities, and balances in the world are different. In this way, although the world is unified, it is extremely inconvenient for the people to communicate. Because they will always have the idea in their hearts that I am Qin People, they are from Chu, we are not from the same country."
Ying Zheng nodded in agreement.
Li Shui cupped his hands and said: "Therefore, I request that the writing, currency, carriage tracks, weights and measures be unified."
Ying Zheng praised: "It makes sense, it makes perfect sense."
Li Shui added: "In the capital of Guizhou, there are many people who are illiterate, and very few who can't speak. However, the Central Plains is vast, separated by mountains and rivers, and the accents in different places are different. It is difficult to distinguish and communication is not smooth."
"Therefore, I request that the Xianyang dialect be used as the official language and encourage the people to learn the official language. Even if the speech is not standard, they can still be understood and can barely communicate with outsiders."
"As long as these few things are done, the people's concepts will inevitably change within thirty years. From now on, whoever wants to divide the world will probably have a hard time climbing to the sky."
Ying Zheng pointed at Wang Wan and said, "Prime Minister, write down all the strategies for dealing with Huaiguzi. Within a few days, detailed regulations will be drawn up."
Wang Wan nodded.
This court meeting turned into a performance performed by Li Shui alone.
The courtiers looked at the high-spirited Li Shui and thought: Huaiguzi is indeed very arrogant, arrogant and crazy. But...he's really a bit crooked, so I won't accept it.
Suddenly, Li Xin said: "Why do we have to spend so much effort on a matter that can be solved by three thousand tiger troops? I think it is not an exaggeration to rank me as the first in Class A."
Everyone: "..."
The court meeting ended and everyone filed out. An official who was close to Wang Li rubbed his butt that was still aching and asked, "General Wang, how is your thousand acres of fertile land? We are all looking forward to the corn harvest, so that we can breathe a sigh of relief."
Wang Li smiled slightly, glanced at Li Shui proudly, and said, "Not bad. There was a heavy storm yesterday, and 30% of the crops in the fields were lost."
In fact, although Wang Li organized people to set up tents, it was still a thousand acres of fertile land. How could he protect it all in a short time? As a result, 40% of the seedlings were lost.
But in order to attack Li Shui, I deliberately said less.
The people around them looked in amazement and said: "The storm yesterday was so violent. Many fertile fields outside the city lost more than 60%. However, General Wang's fertile fields only lost 30%. It seems that there will be a bumper harvest this time. Yes."
Wang Li laughed: "This is natural. After harvesting, I will cut off some people's heads."
When he said this, Wang Li turned to look at Li Shui and asked, "Master Huai, I wonder how your farmland is doing?"
Li Shui said: "I haven't checked, but according to farmers, the damage is very serious. It is only a little better than General Wang Li's farmland."
Wang Li choked immediately, and after a while he sneered: "I hope that by the time of autumn harvest, Lord Huai can still be so sharp-tongued."
Li Shui sneered and ignored Wang Li. He went directly to the palace gate and took a food box from Cang Fu.
Afterwards, Li Shui carried the food box and hurried to the alchemy room.
Since being granted the Shangjun Villa, Li Shui rarely came to the alchemy room. But I have an appointment today, so I have to come.
In the alchemy room, Wu Jiao was standing in the corner with his hands down, listening attentively.
Fu Yao was standing in the middle of the room and said to Wei Yang: "My master really showed off his talents today. Before entering the palace, Wang Li made rude remarks. My master acted decisively and slapped Wang Li. Not only did Wang Li not fight back, but I voluntarily received dozens of military sticks.”
Weiyang asked in surprise: "Why is this?"
Fu Yao scratched his head and said: "I don't know about this. The young eunuch who passed the message didn't explain clearly, maybe he was shocked by my master. When the court meeting came, my master refuted Tingwei Li Si one after another, and Dr. Chunyu Yue. He proposed five countermeasures to stabilize the world."
"Father, I am very happy. I have promoted my master to nine levels in a row. He has been promoted to nine levels in a row. Has such a thing happened since the founding of the Qin Dynasty?"
Wei Yang also heard her heart surge and whispered: "I have known for a long time that Mr. Huai has a strategy in his mind. He just doesn't want to imitate those hypocrites and hide his true temperament, so he will attract criticism from some villains."
Li Shui didn't hear Wei Yang's comment. He pushed the door in and said with a smile: "Princess, this time, I brought something new, and it's called dumplings."
