Given the current state of the empire, once something happens to Ying Zheng, it will immediately fall apart and recreate the chaotic situation of the Warring States Period in the past.
It's not even as good as princes fighting for hegemony.
After all, the major vassal states still have legitimate political powers. If Ying Zheng suddenly dies suddenly, God knows how many chaotic mountain kings will appear.
Ge Nie couldn't stand what Ying Zheng was doing now, but he didn't want the world that had finally been put together to become fragmented again.
However, although he disagreed, he was too lazy to express his opinion.
There is no need to go out of your way to prevent something that has a zero success rate.
As for whether people will die or not...Genie can only say that everyone has his own destiny.
The focus of Gai Nie's current attention is still the Taishan Fengchan itself.
Although the whole thing is still unclear, he always feels in his heart that maybe everything is over.
At this time, Thieves Zhi changed the subject and asked, "By the way, Mr. Gai, Mr. Xiaoyao, what's going on over there in the empire? I received news before that the armor-piercing soldiers were transferred to perform defense duties. Is it true?
"
Xiaoyaozi nodded, "Indeed, he is an armor-piercing soldier."
"Who is the general?" Robber Zhi asked, "Didn't Wang Li withdraw?"
"Uh..." Xiaoyaozi glanced at Gai Nie and couldn't help but smile.
Gai Nie then replied, "It's Han Xin."
"Han Xin..." Thief Zhi nodded clearly, and then he was suddenly startled, "It's Han Xin!?"
"Is...is...is that Han Xin?" he stammered and asked in disbelief.
Master Ben and Xue Nu also looked in disbelief.
Then they saw Xiaoyaozi and Gai Nie both nodded.
"Tsk...what does this mean? Is Ying Zheng trying to beat up the Wang family?" Thieves Zhi said, somewhat dumbfounded.
Han Xin, who had defeated the Hundred Battles Armor-Piercing Soldiers led by Wang Li, was asked to lead the Hundred Battles Armor-Piercing Soldiers. No matter how he thought about it, Thief Zhi felt that this was targeting Wang Li.
Master Ban took over the conversation in a quiet voice, "Ying Zheng probably doesn't know that it was Han Xin who severely damaged the Hundred-War Armor-Piercing Soldier in Daze Mountain."
"Then what kind of operation is this? Is it a coincidence?" Pirate Zhi spread his hands and raised his eyebrows.
"Maybe...?" Master Ban replied uncertainly.
Whether it was a coincidence or intentional, they seemed to be quite happy.
The snow girl blinked and did not express any opinion on this.
But in her mind, considering the news that Han Xin was allegedly promoted by Gu Xun, she judged that this was most likely not a coincidence, but someone creating fun.
………………
Although the county seat of Zouxian County was nearby, Ying Zheng did not choose to leave the convoy and settle in the city.
It's not that I dislike the environment of a small city, it's just that it's not necessary.
His carriage was not too luxurious at all, but it was not so comfortable when running, and it would also be somewhat uncomfortable for people to stay in it all the time.
Now the entire convoy is parked near the foot of Mount Yi, so living in the carriage does not have much impact on him, nor does it hinder his activities outside.
Going inside the city is inconvenient.
It is just that the deployment of the garrison is a bit troublesome, but this is not within the scope of Ying Zheng's consideration.
At this time, one of the carriages in the convoy got on.
Ying Zheng sat in front of the chessboard, holding the black pieces.
The person sitting opposite him, holding a white piece of paper, was Fu Nian, the head of Xiaoshengxian Village, a holy land of Confucianism.
Ying Zheng had made it clear to the world before that he invited Confucian scholars from Qilu to gather in Xue County to discuss the matter of enshrining Zen in Mount Tai. Xiaoshengxianzhuang was also in the Qilu area, so of course he had to participate.
Not to mention that Fu Nian has already decided to take the initiative to participate in the Feng Chan matter.
So he came to Yishan himself.
Besides him, Zhang Liang also came.
Among the three heroes of Qi and Lu, only Yan Lu stayed in Songhai - he must not run around and must stay in the Little Sage Village.
And as the head of Xiaoshengxian Village, Fu Nian's treatment is not comparable to that of ordinary Confucian students.
The others could only argue outside the East Tour team, but Ying Zheng invited him into the team in advance... to play chess with him.
Of course, playing chess is not the purpose, just like dinner is not just for eating.
"Many years ago, did I meet Mr. Fu Nian?" Ying Zheng asked casually.
Fu Nian carefully considered his move and replied calmly, "The common people are appreciated by Your Majesty and have taught scriptures to the princes."
In fact, he mainly taught Fusu, but to avoid being misunderstood, he deliberately vaguely referred to all the princes.
Ying Zheng didn't care about this. This question was just the starting point for him to start the topic, and he continued:
"I have benefited a lot from listening to your principles of inner saint and outer king."
"Fu Nian is ashamed!" Fu Nian responded cautiously, still cautious.
However, he felt a little relieved.
He somewhat understands Ying Zheng's character, and his willingness to say these polite words to him shows that he doesn't have much ill will towards Little Saint Xian Manor.
Regardless of Fu Nian's psychology, Ying Zheng continued, "Mr. Fu Nian is humbled. As the head of Xiaoshengxian Village and the leader of Confucianism, you are a well-deserved role model for Confucian scholars."
Fu Nian's heart skipped a beat, knowing that the topic was about to come.
The topic suddenly extended from him to all Confucian students. It was definitely not a casual comment.
"Nowadays, there is a lot of fuss over the issue of Zen Buddhism. Mr. Fu Nian, as the leader of Confucianism, understands that, right?" Ying Zheng's question came up immediately.
Fu Nian remained calm and nodded seriously.
"What do you think, Mr. Fu Nian?" Ying Zheng asked again.
Fu Nian replied without hesitation, "Your Majesty, your Majesty, your Majesty's Holy Judgment, will make your own decision."
In short, you have the final say.
Ying Zheng's expression showed no signs of change and he continued to play chess unhurriedly. At the same time, he said, "Mr. Fu Nian is indeed loyal to the monarch and the country, but it seems that not everyone in Confucianism is like Mr."
Fu Nian fell into silence, and the chess game seemed to be at a stalemate. He held the black piece and was unable to make a move for a long time.
Ying Zheng did not rush, he looked at the chessboard and waited quietly.
After a long time, Fu Nianluozi replied at the same time, "Only His Majesty's Holy Judgment can judge."
Translate it, it’s up to you.
Speaking of this, Fu Nian basically followed Ying Zheng's wishes.
You can do whatever you want with Feng Chan.
How do you want to deal with Confucian scholars who don't agree with you?
It's not that Fu Nian has no integrity, but that he really can't go against Ying Zheng right from the start.
No matter what, he had to find a way to preserve the Little Saint's Village, at least for the stupid fools in the Confucian family who were not able to ruin the life of the Little Saint's Village.
Moreover, his private talks with Ying Zheng were at most just a statement, showing that Xiaoshengxian Village had no intention of disobeying the emperor.
As for how to do it specifically, that is another matter.
It is impossible for Ying Zheng to go out and tell others that Fu Nian, the head of Xiaoshengxian Village, said that he, the emperor, can do whatever he wants.
Now that the decision has been made, there is no need to waver when expressing your stance.
As for the integrity and persistence he should have as a Confucian disciple, that can wait until he looks back.
Although Ying Zheng is domineering, he does not allow his subordinates to say "no".
