Chapter 44 Captive

Fusu hasn't enjoyed this treatment for a long time after working again. Perhaps because after working again, I found that many things were different from what I remembered. Fusu not only didn't feel sad, but also felt that it was quite novel.

Such a father inexplicably made him feel both strange and close.

When Ying Zheng asked someone to come and lead him over, Fusu got up and tidyed up his clothes and went to see Ying Zheng quickly.

Li Si and the others had already left, and two groups of people came and went, and now only Ying Zheng was sitting there in the room.

Ying Zheng was cleaning his hands, obviously preparing for a meal. When he saw Fusu coming in, his face was not angry. Instead, he asked Fusu to sit beside him kindly.

Fusu followed Ying Zheng seriously and cleaned his hands.

Ying Zheng glanced at Fusu with a sideways. Such a young boy, who had so many ideas all day long, dared to take Li You and the others out. He asked, "Where did you go today?"

Fusu did not hide it and told Ying Zheng everything.

This matter is simple. Cheng Miao thought that he was here to ruin the situation. Fusu had seen the views and methods of improvement put forward by the other party, and felt that he was a talent criticism, so he wanted to meet him in person.

Ying Zheng casually wiped his hands dry, looked at Fusu and asked, "Have you met?"

Fusu nodded: "I'm here." He introduced Xu and thanked Ying Zheng, saying that they had been with their disciples in various countries and finally chose to stay in the academy. This shows that their academy was well run!

Tabooing is tacky, but it is very useful!

Ying Zheng was amused after hearing this: "It sounds like they compared the market and finally chose Qin?"

Fusu said: "Father, you are right."

Ying Zheng said: "Are there any Mohist masters among them?"

In the minds of many people, it may be commendable to be praised for his righteousness, but this is not a good thing for the king. For example, this Mo family master has a huge influence on the children of the Mo family, and all Mo family members are willing to give their lives to the sons. If the Mo family grows to a certain level, the Mo family master will undoubtedly be the king without land!

Fusu said: "No." According to Mr. Xie, they were just a small branch of the Mo family, and they were not even qualified to be excluded by Chu, Qi and Zhao. The only thing that was more promising was that they carried a complete "Mo Jing", which was much richer than the collections in the palace.

Ying Zheng didn't want Qin to have an "earthless king". Since this Mo family branch has no great men, Fusu should stay if he wants to.

I just didn't expect that this fun-like school would really attract two children.

The dinner was delivered, Ying Zheng didn't say much, and asked Fusu to eat first.

The father and son have had a lot of meals together in the past six months, and the atmosphere is quite harmonious.

When he had enough food and drink, Ying Zheng took Fusu out for a walk and digest food.

Today, Ying Zheng finished discussing government affairs with others. After dinner, it was dark and lights were lit everywhere in the palace.

The palaces in the night make people feel a little strange.

Fusu followed Ying Zheng for a while and couldn't help but ask Ying Zheng: "Father, are you angry about having a baby today?"

Ying Zheng glanced at him without saying a word.

Fusu earnestly promised: "Next time the child goes outside, he will definitely report to his father first."

Ying Zheng glanced at him again and said, "If you have time to see the sky running out, I don't have the time to listen to your report."

Seeing that Ying Zheng was willing to speak, Fusu immediately reviewed his random behavior and said that he would definitely do a good job in class in the future and would never skip classes.

Ying Zheng patiently waited for Fusu to finish the review before saying, "In the future, more and more people in the academy have different ideas. Which one do you believe in?"

Fusu answered honestly: "Confucius said, choose the good ones and follow them, and change the bad ones. If the words of the hundreds of schools make sense, I believe it, but if the unreasonable ones do not."

The reason why people are different from poultry and livestock is simply because they are intelligent and know how to distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong, rather than following the crowd and believing in whatever they hear.

Fusu raised his head and said, "There are not many omniscient and omnipotent people in the world. If the father wants iron tools, he will look for blacksmiths; if he wants wooden tools, he will look for carpenters. The same is true for academic matters. If there are agricultural problems, we should look for farmers, and if there are legal problems, we should look for people who study the law. If there are many schools of thought, all the problems will naturally be solved."

This idea coincides with Ying Zheng. No matter which company they belong to, they can be used as long as it is useful.

He would ask this question, but he was afraid that Fusu would be fooled and dived into the ditch.

For example, if you go to learn the Mohist school, you will commit suicide by wiping your neck or killing your relatives for justice.

He doesn't have such a stupid son.

Facing Fusu's bright eyes, Ying Zheng turned the topic without asking for permission, "You go back to China to arrange your time, and you will free up the afternoon in two days to give you something to do."

Fusu doesn't need to attend classes for the time being, and he is still a half-sized child, so there is no need to do physical training all day long. With his small body, just practice riding and shooting, and there is no need to spend a whole day.

Fusu was a little confused: "Father, what are you doing?"

Ying Zheng said, "You will know in two days." He thought about it and decided the date directly, "Just come to Feng Quji the day after tomorrow, you go and find Feng Quji and learn from him."

Feng Quji is a good at managing government affairs. His son Feng Jie went to war with the army this time. If he could come back, the father and son would have a literary and military future, and his future would be limitless.

Fusu has never had much contact with Feng Quji and is not familiar with Feng Jie, but he vaguely remembers that both of them are outstanding in talent.

After listening to Ying Zheng's arrangements to go and learn from Feng Quji, Fusu was not repelled and nodded and agreed.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and sent Fusu back to rest.

Fusu talked about this with Li You and the others the next day.

When Li You and Wang Li heard about Feng Jie, they thought of Feng Jie.

Feng Jie is not a few years older than them, and now he has the opportunity to go to war with the army. Everyone is in martial arts, and he is inevitably a little envious.

Wang Li's grandfather and father were both generals in the army and were more familiar with the affairs in the army than Li You. He immediately talked to Fusu about Feng Jie: "Feng Jie is very good at skill and has a very good military strategy. My father even asked me to ask him for advice."

But young people always don’t like to listen to such words. Who doesn’t think they are the best in the world?

So Wang Li added another sentence inwardly, saying that Feng Jie is more proud and doesn't take others seriously.

Although Li You talked little, he couldn't stand Wang Li secretly slandering others. He demolished Wang Li's platform without hesitation: "Feng Jieren is very good."

Before seeing him, Fusu would certainly not make a conclusion about someone else's evaluation. He smiled and said, "I have never seen him before. When he comes back from the army, you have to recommend it to me."

Li You agreed immediately.

Wang Li felt that Li You didn’t like him anywhere!

After discussing with Li You and the others, Fusu adjusted some of the training content and freed up most of the day for Fusu to report to Feng Quji.

Fusu was quite curious about what Ying Zheng wanted to learn by himself, and the next day he estimated the end of the morning court and went to see Feng Quji.

Feng Quji was a little dissatisfied with the fact that he wanted to start raising children.

This year, Ying Zheng especially likes to hear people praise his son (specially referring to Fusu). People are rebellious. If they pinch their noses and praise them too much, Feng Quji will not have much affection for Fusu.

In Feng Quji's opinion, how smart can a seven-year-old child be?

As for what fairy child comes to the world, it is nonsense. Although papermaking techniques are magical, they are actually not that difficult to figure out after figuring out the raw materials and papermaking process. It is very likely that Ying Zheng asked someone to make it out and stuff it on Fusu.

As for why Ying Zheng didn't put himself on his head, it's unknown. Perhaps it's because Ying Zheng especially likes Fusu's son.

Anyway, Feng Quji didn't believe what was said outside at all.

When Feng Quji thought of Ying Zheng asking him to take care of a child when doing a serious business, he felt awkward when Feng Quji thought about it.

Isn't this a joke?

Although he was not very happy, Ying Zheng had spoken, and Feng Quji couldn't say anything.

When the court in the world saw Fusu waiting there early, Feng Quji even showed a perfectly flattered look on his face. He said politely: "Young Master, come here so early?"

Fusu smiled and said, "I only practice riding and archery in the Imperial College, and I am usually very free."

Feng Quji thought to himself, you are very idle, I am not idle.

Even though he muttered, Feng Quji still led Fusu to obtain the new book.

While walking to the government office where he was, Feng Quji introduced Fusu what he would do next: "Send a group of prisoners back from Nanyang. We must place them and mobilize a considerable number of soldiers from the local area to Nanyang."

In the past, when the two armies fought, they generally killed all the defeated parties. Bai Qi was once called "human slaughter" because too many people killed.

As for the local people, those who refuse to surrender will also be killed. Those who are willing to surrender will basically force them to migrate to remote areas to open up wastelands and farmland.

After all, the population of various countries is limited, and no matter which country can work, it is necessary. The prisoners of these defeated countries are more worry-free to use, and they will be given stuttering. They don’t have to give anything else. If they don’t work, they will use a whip. No one will pursue it if they die. It is simply free labor.

These prisoners sent back from Nanyang were a group of free laborers moved back from the defeated areas.

At present, there are quite a lot of places to hire people in various places. Think about it, when men from all over the country have been recruited in war, there must be a shortage of people in the local labor service. Who wouldn’t want to take him hundreds of people back to be a cow and horse envoy!

So the court has now decided to register the prisoners and record their origins and destinations so as not to grab a batch of them, and I will not know where they are going. I don’t know if anyone takes the opportunity to raise private soldiers, but it has become a safety hazard!

Fusu is not unfamiliar with this work. In his previous life, Meng Tian built the Great Wall and opened the straight road. Among the people he used were prisoners from the six countries.

But there were too many civilians and prisoners recruited at that time. He remembered that he did not register the book, and he counted the total number.

Some things may have changed because of his return.

Fusu obediently followed Feng Quji to prepare the Ding Book and distribute it to the people below to carefully calculate the prisoners' situation.

Next, Feng Quji has to deal with some boring official documents.

Because Fusu followed suit well throughout the whole process, without asking any stupid questions, and without making any random tricks, Feng Quji's impression of him was much better and said, "The king mainly asked you to learn how to place prisoners. The affairs in my yamen are quite complicated and trivial, so you don't have to stay by your side."

Fusu knew that Feng Quji had good intentions, so he thought about it and said, "Then I'll go and see the prisoners."

The prisoners were specifically supervised by the army, and there was not much chance to make trouble. Feng Quji thought that it was normal for the child to be more curious, so he didn't stop him. He ordered someone to take Fusu to see the prisoners.

The author has something to say:

Ying Zheng: I don’t have a silly son who always wiping his neck

Fu Xiaosu:...
