Chapter 88 Promoting the Work of the Propaganda Department
Investigator of the Nine Straight Paths!
It is the eyes of Dalufu.
It cannot be said that with these eyes, we can formulate the most suitable Qin law, but at least we can try to adapt to it.
The world's sufferings are not due to virtue, but to the Dharma!
After arranging the investigation affairs, Ying Cheng left Dalu Mansion.
Came to the Propaganda Department of the Xinli Thirteenth Division.
Chunyu Yue is very prosperous now!
Three people stood in an empty official office. The official uniforms and seals had not yet been made, and the staffing was uneven. The three of them were mere commanders.
"I have Confucian students here, why can't I be hired?"
"I didn't say that I couldn't be hired, but at least the knowledge and character of these people must be carefully examined."
"Yeah, we can't just stuff them all into the Propaganda Department!"
"These Confucian disciples are all Confucian disciples who followed me to Xianyang. Their sincerity and loyalty to Your Majesty are a lesson to the world!"
"I don't quite agree with your statement. People's hearts are separated from each other!"
"You just don't obey me, right?"
"Absolutely not. Don't slander me. We are just discussing with you the appointment of an official in the Propaganda Department."
…
Before he even reached the door, Ying Cheng heard a quarrel coming from the small official office.
The three of them were arguing and didn't even notice him coming.
Most of the left and right directors appointed by Li Si and Feng Quji were troublemakers.
certainly.
Ying Cheng also agreed with this approach.
A threesome is the best way to travel together.
"Ahem!"
Having heard enough, Ying Cheng stood at the door and coughed.
The main point of conflict between these people is the choice of propaganda department officials and subordinate officials.
Chunyu Yue wanted to select enough Confucian disciples to join the Propaganda Department, which was a desperate move.
Jiang Fu and Tang You, on the other hand, wanted to get some of their own people into the Propaganda Department... Well, it wasn't that they got some, they wanted to bring in a lot of their own people.
Therefore, the three of them could not compete for a long time.
Chun Yuyue and the other two people who were arguing were startled by the sudden appearance of Ying Cheng, and they hurriedly shut up and said:
"The lower official Chun Yuyue (Jiang Futangyou) pays homage to Duke Cheng!"
"No need to be polite!" Ying Cheng smiled, walked up to the main seat and said, "I heard your quarrel outside the door."
At this moment, the faces of the three people who were arguing turned red and froze!
"Dali Ling, I'm lowering my rank..." Chunyu Yue looked very unhappy and wanted to complain.
Jiang Fu and Tang You also gave refutational explanations.
Ying Cheng raised his hand, suppressed the three people's conversation, and said with a smile:
"You three adults, please take a seat. No need to be formal. As for me, I'm just here to have a heart-to-heart talk with you three officers!"
Chunyu Yue and the others looked at Ying Cheng suspiciously and sat on both sides with their hands folded.
Chunyu Yue is on the left, Jiang Fu and Tang You are on the right. It can be seen that a situation of opposition between the two parties has formed.
Ying Cheng doesn’t care about this!
"Chun Yuyue, are you considered the leader of Confucianism now?"
"Don't be nervous, just chat casually!"
Chunyu Yue replied vigilantly: "So... right?"
Jiang Fu on the side laughed and said: "Returning to Dali Ling, Chunyu Sizheng was born in Qi State and studied under Master Xunzi. Mr. Xunzi advocated the combination of etiquette and law. This is a slight inheritance. Otherwise, I am afraid Sizheng would not come to Xianyang.
Bar."
"However, to say that Si is the leader of Confucianism is an exaggeration."
"Confucianism has been divided into many factions since Kong Xian."
"There are Confucians of the Zi Zhang family, Confucians of the Zi Si family, Confucians of the Yan family, Confucians of the Meng family, Confucians of the Qidiao family, Zhong Liang Confucians, Sun Confucians, and Le Zheng family Confucians."
"This Mr. Xunzi is the leader of Sun Confucianism."
"Chun Yuyue and Shusun Tong are now the leaders of the Sun family."
"If we talk about Confucian leaders, I'm afraid we have to talk about Kong Xian's eighth grandson Kong Yu, but he is just a leader. Confucianism has long been divided and does not have the determination and attitude of the seventy-two sages to help the world."
"In the eyes of many Confucian scholars, Sun's Confucianism is not considered a saint of Confucianism, but just the end of the stream. The real mainstream of Confucianism is Zizhang's Confucianism, which is more inclined to love all, respect the virtuous and tolerate others."
“Mr.
"At the same time, Confucian scholars are divided into different categories and inherit seventy-two sages. Since Mencius, there are also countless Confucian scholars in the name of Confucianism."
"All in all, Confucianism is a very strange school of thought. It is so chaotic that even Mr. Li is not clear about it. Even the Confucian scholars within a single faction have their own opinions and hold different views."
"If Da Lü Ling is interested, I can tell you in detail!"
Jiang Fuyan's conclusive words made Tang You next to him couldn't help but shake his head, and looked at Chun Yuyue. I'm afraid that even the person in front of him doesn't know as much about Confucianism as the person next to him!
What Jiang Fu said is probably the result of a nationwide investigation.
It is rumored that in order to deal with Confucianism, Prime Minister Li organized a group of people to investigate Confucianism and used various means to make Confucianism different from the mainstream, causing disintegration and disintegration.
In order to bring their opinions into the court, Chunyu Yue and others colluded with the great alchemist, and only then did they gain a firm foothold in Xianyang.
Of course, this is also what I heard.
Chunyu Yue's face turned red because of Jiang Fu, and his eyes were about to be stared at by Jiang Fu.
"Hey, hey, stay calm, don't be impatient!" Ying Cheng raised his hand to stop Jiang Fu's remarks, continued to look at Chunyu Yue and asked, "Then I wonder how many Confucian scholars you can mobilize to come to Xianyang to join the Propaganda Department
.”
"This!" Chunyu Yue looked stunned and began to think.
Jiang Fu calmly replied: "There are probably between three thousand and five thousand people, mainly in the territory of Old Qi, such as Zhang Liang, Chi Songzi, Lu Jia, Huang Shigong, etc."
"For example, this Lu Jia was born in the seventh year of the First Emperor. He studied at Jixia Academy and was active in Qilu. Now he is twenty-four or five years old and is considered a little celebrity.
Zhang Liang, the Prime Minister of the old Han Dynasty after opening the land, although he was a Confucian of the Sun family, he hated His Majesty the First Emperor very much, and planned to assassinate His Majesty, and is still wanted."
"It's a bit small!" When Ying Cheng heard this, no matter who said it, he just shook his head. It was only three thousand, which was too little.
But seeing Ying Cheng's attitude.
Chunyu Yue, who originally had a bitter look on his face, immediately cheered up and said: "There are five thousand Confucian scholars who can come to Xianyang and join the Propaganda Department!"
"Da Lü Ling, I'm afraid this is not appropriate!" Jiang Fu also felt uncomfortable. He said so much. Could it be that he had said it in vain? Confucianism cannot be reused at all.
There are too few people.
"Yes, how can the Propaganda Department accommodate five thousand people? Wanwang Dalu must think deeply!" Tang You persuaded, unable to sit still.
"It's still not enough, it's too little. Think again, how many Confucian scholars can you bring to Xianyang!" Ignoring the nervous Jiang and Tang, Ying Cheng shook his head and continued: "There are 814 counties in the world, and you have five thousand
If a Confucian scholar sprinkles it in, it won't even make a splash."
Ying Cheng's words suddenly made Chunyu Yue's eyes gradually become excited. Hearing this, it meant that Confucian scholars should become officials and become low-level officials.
This is great, a great joy.
Chunyu Yue was very excited.
It was as if I saw the bright road of Confucianism.
