Although Chen Xu was given the title of dozens of founding ancestors by the people, the New Legalist School was the name that Chen Xu himself recognized. The governing of the country by magic is also the concept that Chen Xu has always adhered to. Chen Xu’s favorite thing about reforming and implementing various laws.

Today, the number of laws in the Qin Dynasty is several times higher than that in Li Si's rule. Not only is it more, but it is also more careful and strict, striving to make every imperial edict, every job, every official, and of course, the actions of the civil scholars, farmers, industry and commerce be within the framework of various new laws.

If there is a law to follow, there is a law to follow, the law will be enforced strictly, and violations will be punished.

This is a sentence that the Daqin Metropolis Daily Law Section has been promoting, and it has not disappeared for so many years.

And the advocate of this sentence is Chen Xu.

Law is the basis of all political life in the Qin Dynasty, and everyone except the emperor is included without exception.

Therefore, it is recommended that Fusu go to the stage, which is almost impossible to pass by Chen Xu.

As for the more than ten remaining young masters in Xianyang, they are actually similar to Meng Yi's opinion, and there is not much difference between the cultural relics in the court.

Mainly, after hundreds of years of magical rule in the Qin Dynasty, a large number of royal families were excluded from the court. This was not only to limit the royal family's struggle for power and not to give other vassal states an opportunity to take advantage of it, but also to avoid the royal family's power being too strong and the intention to usurp the throne. In the past, the princes and kings defended themselves as if they were guarding against thieves. Once a certain royal family had the ability, they would fight and have strategies, and when the power was too great, there would basically be a fight.

This is true for the Xinling Jun Wei Wuji. Because he was too powerful, he was afraid of the King of Wei and directly seized military power and finally died of depression. As soon as Xinling Jun died, Wei no longer had a pillar to resist Qin. He quickly retreated under the attack of Qin. More than ten years later, the Wushu of the Great Wei, who had once shocked the world, could not save the decline of Wei and was completely trampled to death by Qin.

If this story goes a little further, it will make Meng Yi feel that his face is lost. Because the Meng family, who has outstanding meritorious achievements, had the first tragic defeat. The label of Xinling Jun was slapped on his face.

The first time the five countries joined forces to fight against Qin, Xinling Jun was the supreme commander, and he defeated the Qin army led by Meng Ao on the Yellow River, and then chased him to Hangu Pass in one go. The Qin army finally blocked the army of the five countries by relying on the advantageous geographical location of Hangu Pass.

That year, King Zhuangxiang of Qin happened to die, and the prince Zheng, who was only thirteen years old, ascended the throne and became the King of Qin.

In order to get rid of the huge pressure brought by the five countries' alliance, the regent Lu Buwei once again exerted the temptation of gold and sent someone to Wei to get rid of the relationship between King Wei and Xinling Jun. At the same time, he also sent an envoy to Wei to congratulate Wei Wuji on becoming the King of Wei. Therefore, the King of Wei's suspicion of Wei Wuji reached its peak and deprived his military power. Wei Wuji left, and the army of the five countries' alliance quickly fell apart, and the pressure of Qin completely disappeared. Lu Buwei also had enough time and energy to have an affair with Empress Dowager Zhao and create his own power.

Therefore, for foreign ministers like Meng Yi, they naturally do not want the royal family to be too strong. It is best to follow the ancient tradition when the power cake remains unchanged. The royal family will not be awarded titles without credit. This is not only the tradition of the Qin Dynasty, but also a better way to ensure the stability of the imperial power.

There are too many capable people among the people, and there is no need for royal family to do such things as making meritorious service in wars.

In fact, in the eyes of civil and military officials in the court, it is better for the royal family to be relaxed and retired. Without the royal family, foreign ministers can manage the Qin Dynasty in an orderly manner.

For example, it is best if this situation continues.

But at present, Meng Yi has to face a difficult problem, that is, Chen Xu's problem. Once the First Emperor collapses and does not establish a crown prince, even if Hu Hai and Zhao Hai and others are destroyed the attempt to usurp the throne, who will become the emperor?

"My father-in-law is so entangled that he really has no one to choose?" Chen Xu slowly drank tea with a calm expression.

"Difficult!" Meng Yi shook his head depressedly, "It's not that there is no, but that they are all unjust. Your Majesty does not issue an edict, and any young master ascends the throne will have the same end unless you can agree to assist the eldest son..."

"Fusu..." Chen Xu also slowly fell into silence for a long time, and then sighed slightly, "It's not that the son-in-law doesn't want it, but I'm afraid that Fusu will have a slight conflict with my governing position after he ascended the throne!"

"Do you still want to learn from Lu Buwei's one-handed approach to covering the sky?" Meng Yi's face twitched a few times and said coldly.

"Lu Buwei is naturally not easy to learn. Once Fusu ascended the throne, in order to implement the Confucian theory of monarchy, ministers, fathers and sons, benevolence and etiquette, you must first remove the position of supervising civil and military officials. In this way, you might as well surrender to Hu Hai!"

"Hmph, that's what I'm going to do later. What I'm worried about is that now, since you don't support Fusu, you have to support a young man. The family must not be without a master for a day, and the country must not be without a king for a day. Once there is no emperor in the Qin Dynasty, it will inevitably be even more chaotic. If this happens, I might as well be justified in favor of Hu Hai!"

"Wow, your fox tail is indeed exposed!" Chen Xu pointed at Meng Yi's nose and exclaimed.

Meng Yi snorted coldly: "I am just talking about the matter. No matter how much Hu Hai said, there is still a book of edicts available. It is much better than being empty-handed like you. Now I am dragging me into the water and following you to do this worry-free thing. If it weren't for you that this was a warning to the heavenly book, I would definitely consider your seventeen or eighteen books of the crime of rioting the court!"

Chen Xu rolled his eyes and continued to drink tea and think.

I have never had a good chat with my father-in-law.

An old fox who has been immersed in the court for more than ten years has a very stubborn mind and many things are simple, but if it is discussed, it will become more complicated because there are too many entanglements of interests and grievances.

Half an hour later, Chen Xu took a bus to leave Sanwei Teahouse.

Today's conversation basically did not get much useful content, but just arranged some of the things that Montessori needs to be executed more carefully, so as not to get lost.

Chen Xu's original test was unexpectedly seen through Meng Yi in an instant.

It is false to instigate Meng Yi to surrender to Hu Hai, and according to the performance of the Meng brothers in history, they will not surrender to Hu Hai. However, after so many years of contact with Meng Yi, Chen Xu found that this person was extremely smart and upright, but he had a narrow vision and a low level of thought. He has always been confined to maintaining the supreme status of imperial power. He has never seen the overall situation of the common people and the safety of the world. This is a manifestation of almost foolish loyalty.

The manifestation of foolish loyalty is a stubborn mind, believing in the truth but not knowing how to adapt.

However, Chen Xu's reforms require a large number of people with high vision and open minds to implement them. Future people's livelihood reforms and political reforms are the main themes. The Qin Dynasty is not the Qin Dynasty of the royal family, nor the Qin Dynasty of the kings and princes, but the Qin Dynasty of the whole world. Just like the Han Dynasty in later generations, it is necessary to make the unified Chinese people achieve a highly unified sense of identity, which is the racial concept of the Qin people.

To gather the power of the entire China, finally form a unified idea, take the Qin as the country, take the Qin family, and be proud of being the Qin people, instead of calling themselves Zhao people, Han people, Chu people, etc. This requires great strength to break the ideological inequality between the people of the seven countries, break the discrimination and differentiation between the seven countries, and let everyone feel the treatment of the court equally. However, in the eyes of the real power ministers like Meng Yi, this kind of thing has no meaning at all. The law comes from the king, the monarch is arbitrary, and the monarch is the supreme ruler. In his eyes, there is only the king, no people.

Meng Yi is now in full swing. As the top leader of the Shangqing and the Supervisory Provincial Department, he has a high position and a powerful position. Once he participates in the process of electing the new emperor to ascend the throne, he will inevitably continue to squat in this position in the future, and may have been squatting until his death for decades.

As long as these stubborn old guys occupy the center of the court, the reform will become more and more difficult as they go.

Because to the end of the reform, it will inevitably touch the interests of these important officials.

And the core of this interest is the monarchy.

The power of the monarch must be bound, and the power of the minister must also be supervised. Only by enhancing the civil rights can there be sufficient supervision.

In order to break the belief that monarchy is supreme, old stubborn men like Meng Yi cannot continue to stay in the court and take power.

This is the conflict between the old and new theories, and the conflict between the old and new interest groups. If these huge conflicts cannot be resolved, the future of the Qin Empire will still be like the feudal dynasty that has lasted for more than two thousand years, and there will be no foundation for inheritance for generations.

Standing at the door of the tea room, watching Chen Xu leave with his hands behind his back, Meng Yi's expression gradually became extremely serious, and his skin gradually turned black.

"Little fox, he actually wanted to drive me out of the court, and his conscience was eaten by the dog, hum!"
