Zhao Gao walked into his study, and Zhao Zhe, dressed in eunuch's clothes, was already waiting inside.

"What's the matter when I go home in such a hurry to look for me?" Zhao Gao asked in a displeasure and sat on the chair.

"Dad, I just heard from eunuchs in the palace that Chen Xu and Prime Minister Li of the Secretariat had a quarrel in Zichen Hall!" Zhao Zhe said quickly.

"Are you arguing?" Zhao Gao was stunned for a moment, his face became a little strange, and he pondered for a while and asked, "What are they quarreling?"

Zhao Zhe shook his head and said, "The child was not here at that time, and the eunuch who informed him was a little far apart and could not hear it clearly. However, he was very angry when he heard Chen Xu's voice, and seemed to insult Li Xiang, and scolded Li Xiang for not being in the position of Zuo and Shangqing..."

Zhao Zhe carefully explained the words he heard in the palace, and then said carefully: "Dad, the child thinks he can do some articles in this matter, so he rushes to come back and report!"

Zhao Gao nodded: "Zhe'er, this is done well. Chen Xu is the life-and-death enemy of my Zhao family. If you don't get rid of it for a day, my Zhao family will be in peace for a day!"

"Dad, what should we do?"

"No hurry, you have to find out this matter clearly. Li Si is now in charge of the Secretariat, with power in the court and the country, and no one can shake it except His Majesty. Chen Xu has a special identity and everyone is careful about him. As the saying goes, two tigers will suffer one injury. No matter who wins in the end, one of them will fall. I am just right to make a profit from this matter. After you return to the palace, you will be careful. By the way, what you told you last time is clear?"

"Dad, Chen Xu hasn't been to the harem very much recently. The fifth princess left the palace every now and then went to the Qinghe Marquis' Mansion to visit. The child has closely instructed the eunuchs who took care of Huayu Palace to monitor the movements of the fifth princess at all times. If there is a chance one day, he can seduce Chen Xu to the fifth princess' bedroom..."

"Silly!" Before Zhao Zhe finished speaking, Zhao Gao interrupted his words angrily, "You are not harming him, but helping him. The emperor had long wanted to marry the fifth princess to Chen Xu. The marriage was already rumored. Once Chen Xu was confused and committed sexual intercourse with the fifth princess, Chen Xu would no longer refuse to agree to marry the fifth princess, and the emperor would also follow the flow of the boat and make good things. Once Chen Xu became a real royal relative, it would become more and more difficult for me to touch him!"

"Then...what should I do? Chen Xu has less and less time to go to the harem now, so it is getting harder and harder to control the opportunity!" Zhao Zhe said anxiously.

Zhao Gao gently pressed the table with his fingers, and after a half minute of clamor, he said word by word: "No, he will definitely go. As the Ministry of Rites, I control the Zongzheng Department. The marriage of royal children must be carried out by me. Chen Xu is unwilling to marry the fifth princess. I can submit a memorial to the emperor and marry the daughter of Wang Ben, the current Princess Qingning, to Chen Xu!"

"Ah?!" Zhao Zhe's pale cheeks became a little hideous and distorted.

"Hmph, why, do you have any insignificant thoughts about that third lady of Wang?" Zhao Gao snorted coldly, looking at his son's body trembling slightly, knowing that this incident hit his son's pain again, so his face became slightly softer: "Zhe'er, you have no chance to marry and have children in your current status, but a real man can have no wife, but he must not be powerless. Dad will slowly give advice to the emperor to replace all the eunuchs in the harem with eunuchs, once all these eunuchs are turned into eunuchs.

Control, all the concubines, palace maids and princesses in the harem are under your surveillance, even the emperor. Now there are so many women in the harem, even the emperor cannot withstand this kind of joy day and night. Once the emperor is intoxicated, it is the opportunity for you and I to control the government and the country. Chen Xu and Li Si fight and insult each other. Isn’t I willing to let go of this opportunity? You go back to the palace to continue monitoring. You don’t need to worry about the rest of the matter for the time being, so my father will naturally arrange it!"

"Yes, I'll go back to the palace now!" Zhao Zhe had no choice but to agree.

"There is another thing. I'll find out carefully how the Qinghe Marquis treated Princess Qingning last time. There must be hidden information!" Zhao Gao stood up and said.

"Dad, the child has already inquired in secret. At that time, there were only Chen Xu and two maids in the room, but the two maids kept their mouths tightly and didn't reveal a word..." Zhao Zhe said in embarrassment.

"There are only two little maids, and they were taken from outside the palace. They will be told to a place to threaten them. Besides, Wang Qingxiu was not born by His Majesty, so he would not care too much about life or death. A mere palace maid from the folk will not ask anyone if he dies. Do you have to teach you such a thing?" Zhao Gao glared at his son fiercely.

"Dad, the child knows what to do! Now go back to the palace to handle it!"

"Well, go!" Zhao Gao waved his hand, and Zhao Zhe left the study and hurriedly left. Zhao Gao sat on the couch again and pondered for a moment, took out paper and pen to write a letter, and called the butler in.

"Send this letter to Li Xiang's mansion and say that this order invites Li Xiang to attend the spring banquet in three days!"

"Yes, lord!" The housekeeper took the letter and left. Then Zhao Gao slowly went to the back garden to continue drinking tea and enjoying the dance.

...

The next morning, Chen Xu got up a big bed, dressed and washed up under the servitude of a group of maids, and hurried to the newspaper office after breakfast.

After a night of rushing to print, although the new version of Daqin Metropolis Daily only printed 1,300 copies, it was piled up in a few bundles, tied neatly on seven carriages. Dozens of craftsmen in the printing room were still working overtime to continue printing, and on average, a newspaper was printed every two or three minutes.

The beggar boys in their thirties, both men and women, are almost all black and thin and malnourished, but their hair is neatly combed. After wearing the unified blue vest printed by the Daqin Metropolitan Newspaper behind them, they look much more energetic. Not only that, everyone also carried a linen bag with folded newspapers, and there was a small wooden sign hanging on their chest with the group and name on it!

When Chen Xu came, Chen Ping and a group of secretary editors and helpers from newspaper offices had already arrived, and all the newspaper boys were ready to line up in the yard.

"See Marquis!" As Chen Xu's carriage drove into the yard, everyone hurriedly bowed and saluted.

"No gift!" Chen Xu waved his hands to get out of the car, glanced at Chen Ping and other newspaper leaders who stayed up late and became rabbit eyes, then fell on more than 30 newspaper boys, nodded with satisfaction and said, "Well, it's good, go out when you're ready, try to sell the newspaper before going to court!"

"Yes, Marquis!" Chen Ping, Fu Anqiucheng and others immediately turned around excitedly and began to arrange.

"A group goes east of the city and the sales location is near Qinghe Park."

"The second group goes to the south of the city, and the sales location is near Liushangyuan."

"The three groups head west of the city, and the sales location is near Zongshan Villa."

...

"Six and seven groups go to the city, and the sales location is near the Huaxia Money House!"

“Out ~”

The path and location of the sale along the street had been arranged. At this time, Chen Ping still gave a loud reminder again. With the order, the group of newspaper boys who had already known that they had all climbed onto the carriages of each group, in groups of five, led by helpers. All the helpers were wearing blue vests with the unified logo of the Huaxia Metropolis Daily.

"Go~Go~"

As the coachman whipped, seven carriages quickly drove out of the newspaper yard.

"Mr. Marquis, I'm so excited. As soon as the newspaper comes out, Xianyang will inevitably be in turmoil today!" Chen Ping's face turned red with excitement.

This newspaper not only displays various news and strange stories, farming, novel stories, and remarks from hundreds of schools. Every article in these sections will indicate the author's name, but also publishes the submission address and the editors of various sections in the most prominent position of the first page, as well as the names of editors, editors and editors of the city newspaper, and secretary. That is to say, Chen Ping, Fu An, Qiu Cheng, Ji Tong, Pang Que and others will soon become famous in Xianyang because of this newspaper. After a few months, as the newspaper is taken to other places, the names of these people will surely resound throughout the Qin Dynasty.

This was something that Qiu Chengfu Anjitong and other groups of scribes who were in a state of desolation in Xianyang never expected.

"Don't be too excited too early. I'm afraid you will be busy these days and you will not be able to eat well and sleep well. Hurry up and urge the printing to speed up, and at the same time organize the manuscript and prepare a second newspaper. You are also strict, cautious, novel and interesting..." Chen Xu said with a smile.

"Mr. Marquis, even if I don't eat or sleep for three days and three nights, I will never complain!" A group of editors shouted excitedly.

"Okay, publishing newspapers is a long-term and tedious task. There are so many things that can be published in the world. Every manuscript must be carefully revised repeatedly. There must be no difference. This is not only your task, but also an important measure for our Daqin to be able to maintain peace and stability in the country. Don't forget that you were given an official position by Your Majesty yesterday. You are now officials of the Daqin. Therefore, you must abandon all your dissatisfaction with the Qin Dynasty and the court in the past. Do not be too subjective when you review any manuscript. Since it is a remark that is to spread the world, strive for fairness and impartiality, and do not lose all manuscripts correctly without being happy with things or sad. The only thing to note is that everything is your responsibility for the safety of the Qin Dynasty. No manuscript is allowed to cause trouble to the people and the court..."

After Chen Xu played the old tune again and gave close instructions, Chen Ping and others suppressed their excitement and their hearts turned back to their jobs, and began to work excitedly as if they were injected with chicken blood.

Looking at the lively situation in all the offices, Chen Xu couldn't help but twitch his face a few times.

The world is bustling for profit, and the world is bustling for profit.

These so-called famous scholars in the hundreds of schools of thought are all for fame and fortune. Among them, there are probably none of them who are willing to suffer poverty and concentrate on learning and educating the people.

In other words, from the Spring and Autumn Period to the Warring States Period, various schools of thoughts and speeches continued to rise, and used their thoughts and speeches to conquer the princes' wars, which also gave birth to military sects, Legalists, and Confucian theories that were more in line with the trend. The result of the collapse of rituals and music was that the gentry was forming a new class of powerful people, gradually replacing and filling the status of the princes and nobles, and the real ancient nobles had begun to die.

This is true for Chen Ping, Fu Anjitong and others, and the disciples of the hundreds of literate disciples in the world who all want to seek greater benefits and power through their own knowledge. To consolidate their rights, they must step on other sects.

This is what the Legal disciple Li Si wanted to do yesterday, and he has been doing it all the time.

Yesterday's incident was that two opposing groups, freedom of speech and unified thought, were in fierce confrontation, and then there was resistance and war between oppression and oppression.

These two hostile forces have been constantly fighting in the long river of human history development. However, with the gradual exchange and integration of human civilization, the scope of this game has become larger and larger, from princes to countries, and then expanded to the entire human being on earth, and finally formed two clearly distinguished hostile forces in the East and the West. There are differences in civilizations and oppositions at the philosophical and ideological levels. In fact, it is more about the mutual disagreement of culture, and it is a contest between the hundreds of schools of thought and the dominant Legalist forces in front of us. The two sides or multiple parties do not agree with each other's ideas, and there will inevitably be severe conflicts and competitions.

The winner is the king and the loser is the enemy.

Later generations, Mr. Mao once said: either the east wind overwhelms the west wind or the west wind overwhelms the east wind.

As a messenger who traveled through time in later generations, Chen Xu's heart was contradictory.

If the Legalist forces win, Chinese history will inevitably interpret the same process again. China will experience a great collapse of civilization under the rule of the Qin Dynasty, and the cultural treasures left by the predecessors of the hundreds of schools of thought will be burned, causing the pain of civilization for thousands or even tens of thousands of years in the future.

If the hundreds of forces win and the remarks of each other attack and suppress each other, it will inevitably cause chaos in the country, and the Qin Empire will inevitably fail to last long. In the end, it may fall apart and form a state of separatism of the princes again, and China will once again fall into an endless civil war.

Therefore, Chen Xu was actually confused in the unprecedented struggle between the Legalists and the various schools of thought.

Influenced by various remarks in later generations, it seems that China should have the atmosphere of a hundred schools of thought contending, which shows its prosperity and prosperity. During the Spring and Autumn Period, countless historians and thinkers have repeatedly written and written books, deeply exploring how this prosperous era of hundreds of schools of thought emerged, how could such brilliant and brilliant ideological and philosophical civilization suddenly burst out, and how could the sudden birth of people like Laozi and Confucius who were almost respected as sages.

However, after hundreds of years of competition between the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period and the current Great Qin Dynasty, only the Legalists could finally complete the unification of China. Whether it is the Confucianism, the Mohism, or even the Huang-Lao School, these schools with disciples gathered together could not complete this task. Without the Legalists, it can be said that China is still a mess and is still in a situation of war between the princes.

If Daqin allowed Li Si to continue to control the pure Legal disciples, the situation of unification would not last long. It was like a plate of vegetables, with all kinds of seasonings such as onion, ginger, garlic, mustard, oil, sauce and vinegar, all kinds of seasonings were discarded, only salt was added, and a can of salt was added. Over time, the final outcome was that the person who ate the vegetables would be choked to death.

Therefore, to establish a prosperous and powerful country without destroying the theory of the Hundred Schools and to calm down the fierce struggle between the Legalists and the Hundred Schools, we must find a different approach and find a theoretical method that is compatible with the Hundred Schools and the Legalists so that the splendid civilization of China can continue to be glorious.

But Chen Xu was still almost completely distorted in this method. Although he had had all kinds of seemingly simple and direct ideas before, when he really stepped into Xianyang and the court, he really had to face the problem of dealing with it, he felt that everything was difficult to move forward.

The first thing I face is Li Si, a famous person in history throughout the ages. Now Li Si is in power, and the emperor's trust in him can be said to be much higher than that in Chen Xu in governing the country.

Chen Xu's identity is mysterious, and Qin Shihuang is more respectful, and even said he is still a little scared.

But Li Si is different. Since Li Si became the court lieutenant, he has adhered to the concept of the Legalists. Every memorial has been deeply loved by Qin Shihuang, an emperor who also likes the law. Moreover, Qin has also continued the tradition of Legalists in governing the country for a century, and has formed a deeply rooted habit of magical thinking.

Among them, Li Si's proposal to abolish the feudal system and realize the national county system, which was completely in line with Qin Shihuang's idea, so he opposed the opinions of the people and implemented the county system.

You should know that when Li Si proposed the county system, almost all civil and military officials in the court held objections. To this day, this objection has not been eliminated. From the people to the court, they are still constantly opposing. Among them, the most powerful opposition is the Confucian disciples who respect the ancient times and obey etiquette.

If Chen Xu wanted to achieve his goal and not allow the historical repetition of burning books and burying scholars, he had to find a new route in the theories of the Legalists and the various schools of thought, which was to satisfy Qin Shihuang and the disciples of the various schools of thought, and to reach a general consensus.

And this difficulty is too difficult for a former delivery guy.

Governing a big country is like cooking a small fresh food. This sentence can only be said. Once the seasoning is sprinkled incorrectly or the heat is not well controlled, the fish will be made into poison.

What Chen Xu could do now is to feel the stones across the river, first use the newspaper platform to attract the attention of the disciples of the hundred schools of thought, and then selectively publish some guiding policy theories, such as Xunzi's theory of governing the country by rituals and law, and then publish some articles of the hundred schools of thought that support these theories, and then attract more famous scholars to participate in the debate, constantly play and compromise in theory, and finally form a new force, and then form a new theoretical trend, integrating the theories of mainstream schools and the idea of ​​legalists in governing the country, and finally being accepted by the gentry nationwide, by civil and military officials, and by Qin Shihuang.

This is the so-called public opinion guidance.
