"Robbery under orders?"
When Liu Bai said these words, even the old fox Wang Jian, who had been motionless in the court, was sweating on his forehead!
Robbery is a capital crime according to Qin law!
Now you still want His Majesty to order you to rob? ! !
"Presumptuous! Liu Bai, as the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, you know the law and break the law! This is your contempt for the laws of the Qin Dynasty!"
Chunyu Yue immediately stood up and shouted!
It was no longer just a matter of a day or two for their Confucian officials to see Liu Bai feeling unwell!
Now Liu Bai has stood up on his own and blatantly violated Qin's laws. Isn't this a God-given opportunity?
How could Chunyu Yue let go of such a good opportunity?
"Your Majesty, I think what Prime Minister Liu said is really too much!"
"We, the Qin Dynasty, have unified the world. Now the people live in peace and prosperity, and this is all due to the laws and regulations, so that no one can cause chaos!"
"Now that Liu Bai, as Zuo Cheng, is taking the lead in violating Qin's laws, this is tantamount to telling the people of the world that Qin's laws are useless!"
"Although I am a minister of the same dynasty as Prime Minister Liu, it is difficult for me to help Prime Minister Liu with even a word!"
Feng Jie stood up slowly, looking distressed.
Although he was defending Liu Bai in his words, both inside and outside his words were saying that Liu Bai's actions were sinful.
even...
Telling the people of the world that "Qin's laws are useless" is equivalent to admonishing His Majesty the First Emperor. Liu Bai must be killed to prove that Qin's laws are strict!
This kind of superficial protection, but actually adding insult to injury, is not uncommon in the court. Now that Feng Jie, the leader of the aristocratic family, used it, a group of supporting officials naturally came out.
"Your Majesty, what the imperial censor said is true! Liu Bai's move clearly regards Qin's laws as nothing, and he should be severely punished!"
"Your Majesty, Liu Bai used millions of dollars as an excuse to build an army and demanded his will. His intentions are to be punished!"
"Your Majesty, Liu Bai's actions are quite suspected of wielding power!"
"..."
Voices of support rang out one after another. Officials from noble families rushed to the front, and Confucian officials continued to support.
Even some idle officials are hesitating at this moment whether to step on him or not!
Li Si wanted to open his mouth several times, but found that there was no way to argue.
Cao Shen, who had just assumed the post of Chief Minister of Zuo in the Right Prime Minister's Mansion, saw the scene of the siege, and his blood surged up!
He came to Xianyang because of Liu Xiang's kindness to them.
And I heard from Brother Xiao yesterday that Prime Minister Liu’s plans are far-reaching and he is really asking for orders for the people of the world!
Although Cao Shen had never said a word to Liu Bai, he already regarded Liu Bai as his court in his heart, so naturally he couldn't bear it!
"Your Majesty, Prime Minister Liu was impeached by the ministers before he could finish his words! I thought that Prime Minister Liu should be made to express his thoughts!"
"One million dollars is indeed an extraordinary amount, and it is reasonable to use extraordinary methods!"
"You ministers are so urgent, whether it is for the sake of the country or because of personal anger. Cao Shen is entering the court for the first time, so I have no way of knowing!"
"On the contrary, Prime Minister Liu has already made it clear that what he did for the Xuanjia Army was with a bright mind!"
Cao Shen stood up suddenly, without fear of the chaos in the court, and spoke loudly!
He is a small chief minister of the Prime Minister's Office, and he is still a left chief minister. He can actually stand up at this time, which surprises everyone!
Even His Majesty the First Emperor, who is on the high platform, has such a high opinion of "official selection through literary examination" at this moment.
"You bastard! Cao Shen, you're new to the court, you don't understand the rules, and you won't back down!"
"This is the rule of law, and you cannot cross the line even half way! We speak uprightly, why should we have any personal anger?"
"Hmph! You're a kid with a dirty mouth, you don't know the importance of it, and you talk about national affairs. In my opinion, this time the official selection for the literary test has chosen a bug!"
"..."
Cao Shen's words directly scolded the ministers who had just besieged Liu Bai, and they instantly became the target of public criticism.
Although Cao Shen is determined, he is still young and has no court experience.
So many officials besieged him, and he didn't know what to do for a while.
"Who are you calling a bug?"
At this moment, Liu Bai spoke.
Liu Xiang, who was already at the center of the whirlpool, turned back to stare at one person and spoke in a cold voice.
As soon as this question came out, the officials who were still besieging Cao Shen immediately shut up!
"The selection of officials for the literary examination is in accordance with His Majesty's decree, and Old General Wang supervises the examination! Those selected will be the future pillars of our Great Qin!"
"A bug in your mouth?"
Liu Bai raised his eyebrows and spoke coldly.
"me..."
The official who had just scolded Cao Shen wanted to retaliate, but the killing intent in Liu Bai's eyes was so strong that he couldn't help but take two steps back!
"Plop!"
His right foot mixed with his left foot, and he fell a big butt!
"bed bugs!"
Liu Bai gestured with his mouth, glanced disdainfully, then turned his head and looked at His Majesty the First Emperor:
"Your Majesty, the robbery mentioned by me is just an adjective! Its true meaning is borrowing! What I want is a book!"
"It is well known that books are valued in wealthy families. There is even a joke among the people: books and wives are the only things that cannot be borrowed! If necessary, the wife can borrow them, but books can never be borrowed!"
"If I ask for your Majesty's decree, isn't that just borrowing it by force?"
"Forcibly borrowed, three words are too troublesome. It would be better to say robbery."
Liu Bai slowly explained, almost making all the officials dumbfounded!
Borrow a book? ! ! !
What does this have to do with making money?
Forget it, no matter what the relationship is, just press it down for now!
but...
Liu Bai, why does robbery sound like a good word in your logic?
In an instant, all the civil and military officials in the court felt a chill!
No wonder Prime Minister Liu is so decisive in killing, he can chop people more neatly than chop vegetables!
turn out to be...
In the mind of Prime Minister Liu, robbery is actually a good word!
What kind of logic is this for mountain robbers?
"Your Majesty, didn't I write before to build a library? To make money... you have to rely on the library to make money!"
"There are no books in this library, how can it be done? So I imagine that Your Majesty will ask for a decree and borrow books according to the decree, and use them as the treasure of the library!"
"Of course, I really borrowed it!"
Liu Bai spoke seriously.
The words he said made everyone stunned for a moment.
Li Si's right hand was a little weak and he touched the slight sweat on his forehead.
He was a little confused about what Liu Bai wanted to do.
"What? By borrowing the book, does this mean you are contemptuous of our Da Qin laws?"
"The ones who scolded me fiercely just now, come and talk to me!"
After Liu Bai finished explaining, he turned his eyes and glanced around!
Remember all the people who forced Lai Lai just now! When the time comes, I will be the first to go to your house to 'borrow' it!
"Your Majesty, I think that since Liu Bai is willing to pay for the military expenses of building an army, and the number of millions is really not a small number, why not just agree to it!"
"You won't lose any money by borrowing books. If that doesn't work, there are still a few volumes of books at Lao Chen's house. Prime Minister Liu can go to Lao Chen's house first!"
At this moment, someone stood up and spoke, and it was actually Liu Bai who was the first to 'strongly support' him.
And this person...
It’s actually the great Sinong, Yang Ye!
At this moment, the face of this famous stingy old man in Da Qin was full of smiles!
Completely forgetting the "sobbing" behavior before burning the incense.
