Chapter 199
The literati in Xianyang City led the second emperor Hu Hai out after a riot at the Taixueguan and finally calmed down.
There were no scholars and scholars who were walking in small stalls on the street, but they secretly hid back to their residence because of Hu Hai's appearance and worked hard.
Fang Ru returned to his residence and opened Confucian classics, but could no longer watch it. In front of the Taixue Pavilion, he lost his face. Although he finally kissed the second generation Hu Hai and patted him on the shoulder to prepare, he was always worried that he would fail in the imperial examination and the scholarship.
At night, Fang Ru couldn't sleep while tossing and turning on the bed.
Until dawn, Fang Ru gritted her teeth and got up, looked at the white sky in the east, clenched her fists and said to herself: "I want to take the exam. If it is really on the list, it means that the emperor of the Great Qin is still reliable. If it is true that every word of the article is not worth the score, then I will write an article to elaborate on the bad policies of the Great Qin, so that everyone in the world knows what the current king is like!"
With this plan, Fang Ru's heart finally became clear. He returned to the house and lie down in a daze, and fell asleep in a daze.
At this time, Liu Mozheng followed suit and entered the Xianyang Palace.
Standing in front of Wuxin Hall, Liu Mo looked at the tall statue of Li Xin, stared at it for a while, clasped his fists at Li Xin's statue, and gave a deep salute.
Liu Mo admired this general who was loyal to the country very much. What's more, he and Li Jian were sworn brothers, and he had to worship him when he saw Li Xin's statue.
"I don't know how my three brothers are outside now!" Liu Mo shook his head and took a deep breath.
The slightly cool air in the morning entered Liu Mo's nose, which suddenly made his spirit excited.
Shaking his head, he threw out the distracting thoughts in his mind.
Liu Mo wanted to prepare for the face of the Wuxin Hall today, but he had no idea how to start.
After thinking about it, he decided that I would come to meet Emperor Qin Ershi openly.
"Liu Mo, Taixueguan, meet him." A eunuch proclaimed loudly.
"Cruff" the gate of Wuxin Hall made a heavy sound and slowly opened.
Liu Mo sorted out his clothes and climbed up the steps.
Before coming to the gate of Wuxin Hall, he lowered his head deeply and felt a heat coming from inside.
"It seems that the emperor has been in the Wuxin Hall." Liu Mo felt the heat and made a judgment in his heart.
Looking through the hall gate, I saw mountains of memorials piled up on the huge table.
Because of the success of papermaking, all memorials were replaced with paper, covering a much smaller area, but they were also very high.
Hu Hai was wearing a soft robe, holding a brush in his hand and circled the memorial.
Liu Mo wanted to show his respect, but Hu Hai waved his hand and signaled Diecui beside him to bring him a stool.
Diecui nodded and brought him a stool.
Liu Mo bowed to Diecui and sat down with a sign. This was his first time entering the Xianyang Palace.
The momentum of the deep palace made him a little nervous, and the casual mood he had before was suppressed.
Hu Hai quickly corrected a memorial from Zhang Han, and immediately looked up at Liu Mo, with a smile on his face and said, "Yesterday, in front of the Taixue Pavilion, the gentleman was heartbroken and had a sincere intention to plan the country. I want to hear how he views the current Qin Dynasty?"
Liu Mo didn't expect that Emperor II would ask so directly as soon as he came up.
He was stunned for a moment, obviously a little surprised, and was speechless for a moment.
Hu Hai saw Liu Mo's nervousness, lifted his robe, stood up, and smiled and said, "What? I am Qin Hu, you dare to ask me to drink. I am Qin Ershi Hu, you dare not speak. Since that's the case, I am Qin Hu now!"
Hu Hai directly replaced "I" with "I", and at the same time joked that he was Qin Hu.
Liu Mo was stunned. He did not expect that the rumored Emperor II was so funny, and his nervousness suddenly decreased a lot.
"This emperor is not an ordinary person. It is meaningless to say something irrelevant and cannot show his talent." Liu Mo clenched his fists secretly.
The next moment, he stood up, clasped his fists at Hu Hai and said, "If you dare to ask, I will dare to say it."
Seeing Liu Mo's condition, Hu Hai nodded with satisfaction.
"If Zhao Gao was killed, I wouldn't dare to say a lot. But since the emperor killed Zhao Gao, he has broad laws and light taxes and levies. He appointed Wang Ben and Zhang Han as marshals, held a competition to seize the commander, so that young generals could have a day to stand out. He even took risks himself and regained the treasures of Wuling. It was a precedent for setting a world-wide precedent, opening a statute to win scholars, and opening a road to heaven for scholars."
"Even the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Xia Yu and Shang Tang, and the Two Kings of Civil and Military Affairs have never heard of such achievements."
"As for the world of Qin, I still say the same thing. Governing the country is like making a meal, and when will it be sing the order? In the world now, there are chaos in all directions. We should focus on military strategists, pacify the world, and govern the six kingdoms. This is the most urgent matter of the Great Qin."
Hu Hai nodded and said, "I still have self-knowledge. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, Yao, Shun, Yu and Tang, I am still not as good as those of you. It is this time that you can recruit scholars, except for Meng Yi and others, there are still many families in the court that firmly oppose it. Some links touched their interests and took them away!"
Liu Mo's eyes flashed with a bright light and he stepped forward and said, "The aristocratic families have been cancers of the country since ancient times. The country is strong, and they enjoy it. If the country is weak, these people will gather forces and hold troops to respect themselves. According to the opinions of the ministers, these people are more terrifying than those who explicitly raise the anti-flagship. But the emperor cannot move them at this time."
Hu Hai turned to look at Liu Mo, and the scholar from the Imperial Academy in front of him actually spoke in his heart in one sentence.
There are many people from famous families in the court. Although a series of measures such as killing Zhao Gao shocked them, at a critical moment, those who can truly serve the country will be wiped out.
"The opening of imperial examinations is nothing more than giving the common people a chance to turn over. The aristocratic families do not want to see the common people turn over. The emperor either cancels the opening of imperial examinations, or finds a way to balance them." Liu Mo said.
Hu Hai waved his hand and said, "It is absolutely impossible to cancel the opening of the imperial examination and the recruitment of the scholars. This is my chance to recover in the future. Once the Qin Dynasty is stable, the opening of the imperial examination and the recruitment of the scholars must not only improve, but also give everyone in the world a fair opportunity. This is my big game of chess, and I cannot give up halfway. The method is to start with the balance of the great families of the aristocratic families."
Liu Mo nodded and said that he would cancel the opening of the imperial examination and the recruitment of scholars. This was his determination to test Emperor Qin II's rebellion to reform the bad policies of the Qin Dynasty.
As long as Hu Hai expressed his determination, Liu Mo would have been prepared for how to balance the aristocratic families.
The king and his ministers started chatting in the Wuxin Hall, and laughter came from time to time.
Some old ministers from aristocratic families heard that the emperor had been chatting with a boy from the Imperial Academy for the whole morning, and they all secretly exchanged ideas.
