Chapter 212 Su Jie fools Lu Buwei! Li Si was driven away!
In the main hall of the Prime Minister’s Mansion.
Lu Buwei, Sima Kong and other guests had a little dull expression.
The table tables in front of the few people were filled with bamboo slips. When you look closely, they were all classics of the teachings of hundreds of schools.
At this time, Lu Buwei was naturally discussing the book.
Everyone present knew very well that this matter was of great importance. As long as it could be recognized by Ying Zheng, it would be the Taifu, which was very important to Lu Buwei.
However, how to write books has become a problem.
Everyone had been arguing for an hour.
There is no definite statement.
Sima Kong said: "Prime Minister, if the eldest son wants to learn the emperor's learning, it is not necessarily a crowdfunding school of learning. If he forcibly excerpts, it seems that the Prime Minister's perfunctory behavior is. A academic requires thousands of training and multi-faceted debate. It is definitely not something we can achieve classics by discussing behind closed doors."
Lu Buwei nodded and said, "Mr. I know what the teacher said naturally. Can the three thousand people under the school be able to work together to achieve this goal?"
Sima Kong pointed to the scripture in front of him and said, "These theories of Mo, Confucianism, Law, etc. involve ethics, morality, governance, etc., and the content is complex and difficult to become a systematic one. The theory must have its own core concept. Even if we excerpt, we cannot get rid of this point. However, the concepts of the hundreds of schools already contain thousands of things. How can we give birth to a new family of theory?"
For a moment, the hall fell silent.
Suddenly, the servant quickly came to the hall from outside.
He bowed and said, "Prime Minister, Wu Hou and his wife are here to visit."
Lu Buwei widened his eyes, looked around, and murmured: "Mr. Wuhou? Mrs. Wu?"
Sima Kong and Qiao looked at each other and were surprised. How did Marquis Wu come to visit? This lady?
Lu Buwei's face turned dark. Yesterday, he was in the palace, and he was plotted against by this Marquis of Wu, and he had not recovered yet.
Lu Buwei looked at Sima Kong.
Sima Kong said: "Since Wu Hou is visiting with his wife, if the Prime Minister refuses, he may lose his etiquette. After all, Wu Hou is also a powerful minister in the court."
Lu Buwei nodded and said, "Put these documents away."
Sima Kong immediately said: "Prime Minister, there is no need to be like this!"
Lu Buwei said: "What do you mean by sir?"
Sima Kong said: "Didn't the Prime Minister say that yesterday in the palace, was the statement of writing books mentioned by Wu Hou? I have been discussing for a long time today and I don't know how to act. Why don't the Prime Minister listen to Wu Hou's opinions? Let's tell us that if he is vague, it means that Wu Hou must have some plans yesterday. We can try to find out the truth or falsehood, or will Wu Hou really have some tips?"
Lu Buwei said with a slight forehead and said, "Sir, I'm so anxious!"
Soon, Su Jie brought Lu Caiwei to the main hall.
Su Jie smiled and immediately bowed, "Prime Minister, I am polite."
Lu Buwei and others looked at Su Jie, then looked at Lu Caiwei on Su Jie's side, and exclaimed, "It's no wonder that even Marquis Wu is so powerful."
Lu Buwei stood up, laughed, and said, "Wuhou, hurry up and take your seat, and your wife will invite you."
Sima Kong and others bowed: "We will meet Wuhou, Madam."
Lu Caiwei's expression turned slightly red and she didn't say anything.
Su Jie was not polite, so he helped Lu Caiwei sit down first. This action surprised everyone. What is Wu Hou’s identity? Even if Lu Caiwei is Wu Hou’s eldest wife, it is impossible to treat him like this.
Even Lu Caiwei didn't expect Su Jie to do this.
She could not understand Su Jie's beautiful character from later generations.
As soon as Su Jie sat down, he said, "I will take the liberty to disturb you today, and I hope the Prime Minister will include it."
Then Su Jie took out an exquisite bamboo slip from his arms.
Lu Buwei looked at it and said, "In March, the banquet will be held in Wuhou's mansion! Is this?"
Su Jie looked at Lu Caiwei, and his eyes were full of pampering expressions.
Lu Buwei immediately understood and laughed: "So that's it. I want to congratulate Wu Hou. Calculate that, Wu Hou is indeed looking for a good man. Mrs. Zun is so beautiful and is a good match with Wu Hou. At that time, the emperor will definitely prepare a generous gift!"
Su Jie smiled and said, "That's so thankful to the Prime Minister."
Su Jie looked at Lu Caiwei with love. Lu Caiwei and Su Jie's eyes touched and blushed.
He thought to himself: "Is this Wuhou really possible?"
Su Jie looked at the spreading book scripts in front of Lu Buwei and said, "Prime Minister, is this?"
Lu Buwei and Sima Kong looked at each other and were immediately delighted.
Sima Kong said: "Wuhou, this is the scriptures learned by hundreds of schools. Yesterday, after the Prime Minister came to court, he said to us that Wuhou proposed to write a book within one month and let the eldest son read it. We were discussing how to do it, but we had no idea. At this time, it was Wuhou's proposal, and we didn't know that Wuhou might give some advice."
Lu Buwei and others nodded when they heard the sound.
Lu Buwei frowned and said, "Sima Kong, this matter was proposed by Wu Hou. Wu Hou himself wanted to write a book. It is too rude for you to ask questions like this."
Su Jie smiled secretly.
He said calmly: "The Prime Minister is so serious. Mr. Sima's words are loyal words. How can he be wrong? It was the proposal of this marquis that caused trouble to the Prime Minister. Since Mr. Sima mentioned it, can we tell me what questions we have?"
Sima Kong said: "What the eldest son said was that he wanted to learn the study of hundreds of schools, but the study of hundreds of schools was complicated, and his ideas were refuted. He expressed his opinions on governing the country. Even though we tried to write a few classic articles, it was difficult to understand, let alone have a unified concept. We thought hard but couldn't have any clues. I wonder if Wu Hou could give a hint."
Su Jie nodded and said, "There are three thousand diners under the city and many well-educated people. Could it be that the Prime Minister has not found a suitable solution?"
Lu Buwei said: "The original minister has ordered the people who can write several prologues. The articles are of different quality, but the original minister also has several classics, which does not match the needs of the eldest son."
Su Jie said: "Can I let this marquis look?"
Lu Buwei nodded, and Sima Kong packed up several documents on the desk and handed them to Su Jie.
Su Jie looked at it one by one.
A heart moves.
He shook his head and said, "This person is not good at writing. He seems to be governing the country, but it is full of boastful talk, and some ideas are even far away from the common people. It is inconsistent with our Qin Dynasty politics. Let me see, how is this article written?"
Lu Caiwei was stunned. He didn't know how to govern the country, so how could Su Jie let her see it?
However, since Su Jie spoke.
Lu Caiwei didn't dare to ignore it, and held Wen Jian in her hand and looked at it.
For a moment, he became dizzy, and after a moment, he blushed and said, "I don't understand."
However, in the eyes of Lu Buwei and others, what kind of talent Su Jie can let his wife read? Naturally, the wife is also a strange woman who is proficient in classical documents. After saying this, this article is really so unbearable.
Lu Caiwei nervously held the document in her hand.
Su Jie said: "I only then did I realize that the Prime Minister could not make a book because the diners and such people who were just making up the numbers. In my opinion, it is not difficult for the Prime Minister to write works that satisfy the eldest son. It turns out that the real reason is that the disciples are taking the opportunity to show off their academic skills and do not know the Prime Minister's real difficulties, so they cannot help the Prime Minister solve it."
When Lu Buwei and Sima Kong heard this, they were shocked.
Lu Buwei asked, "What do you say about Wu Hou!"
Su Jie took the book from Lu Caiwei's hand and said, "What the book says is that the great sage governs, establishes rules and regulations, and distinguishes the rules and regulations. Foreign teachers and princes will give full play to Wenhui and make clear the principles of righteousness."
This means that when the wise monarch began to govern the country, he established a legal system, making the discipline more prominent, educated the princes to the outside world, and gave culture and education and favors, so that they could understand the principles and principles.
Sima Kong said in confusion: "This is a good word!"
Su Jie said: "This statement is indeed good, but the remarks of Mencius, Zhuang Zhou and Mo Qu are all good."
Sima Kong immediately wondered: "This?"
Su Jie explained: "This is the Legalist remarks. These remarks have been spread throughout the country during the Shangjun period. Now, the prime minister wants to use the old and implemented remarks as references. How can he create new ideas? This person knows the prime minister's intention, but he still only writes a single theory. Isn't that saying, Prime Minister, you are a businessman who is born without learning skills and use this old principle to show off your power, and naturally, the purpose is to show off your power."
Sima Kong looked at Su Jie and said, "Wu Hou means that this person is not right."
Su Jie nodded: "This person seems to be very talented and knowledgeable. According to the principle, he should understand what each school says, but the articles written to the prime minister are more in the same field. Do you think such articles are in line with the needs of the eldest son? Has he considered the situation of the prime minister?"
Sima Kong nodded and looked at Lu Buwei in shock.
Lu Buwei was furious and said, "Who is this?"
Sima Kong said: "This person came from Chu not long ago and was said to be Xunzi's disciple, named Li Si! He is currently engaged in compilation work in the mansion."
Lu Buwei said angrily: "Have you told him about the needs of the true form?"
Sima Kong bowed and was frightened and said, "I said it, but this person said that the Legalists are the foundation of the Qin State's prosperity. Governing the world lies in punishment rather than virtue, and there is no need for the hundreds of schools of thought."
Lu Buwei slapped the table vigorously and said angrily: "Blow him out for me, don't step into the prime minister's mansion!"
Sima Kong immediately took the order and said, "I'm going to do it right away. Prime Minister calms down. Marquis Wu is still here."
Su Jie's eyebrows and eyes were pissed off and said to himself: "It's really Li Si!"
Lu Buwei suppressed his anger and said, "Wuhou laughed!"
Su Jie shook his head and said, "The Prime Minister's behavior is wise. If there are many talented people like Mr. Sima around the Prime Minister, such a thing can be easily solved."
Sima Kong said: "Thank you, Marquis Wu, for telling me. I only heard what Marquis Wu said at the time. This kind of troubles us seems not a difficult thing in Marquis Wu's eyes. Can you ask for advice and solve your doubts."
Su Jie was silent a little and looked at Lu Buwei.
Lu Buwei reminded: "Sima Shangshu and Wuhou also want to write books, which is also a hundred schools of thought."
Su Jie smiled and said, "The Prime Minister misunderstood. It's not that I don't say it, but that I am thinking for the Prime Minister what kind of works are more suitable for the Prime Minister and can impress the eldest son. Now I really think of it."
