Chapter 24 The minister has three requests

In the Afang Palace, anger fell into a dead silence. The old scholars of Confucianism and Legalism were like chickens strangled.

"This betray is not for the camp, not for academics, but for the people of the world." Li Si bowed deeply to Li Chen.

At this time, Li Si was still clean. He may have conflicts due to different political views, different camps, and different knowledge, but he will never have conflicts due to the interests of the people.

"Give a seat." The voice of the First Emperor rang out.

In this way, Li Chencheng, except for Shi Huang and Wang Jian, was the third person qualified to sit in the hall. But he was not considered a civil servant or a military general. He had to form his own faction and place the big chair between the civil servants and generals. He sat opposite the Qin Emperor.

"Li Qing, what official position do I want me to set up for you?" asked the First Emperor.

"I have three requests, and I'll ask your Majesty to finish listening."

"This is the first request. I am the one whom I am invited by Your Majesty. Since the Shang Dynasty, all the emperors on earth have called Emperors and the sons of heaven. I think this is inappropriate. My emperor's merits are more than the three emperors and his virtues are better than the five emperors. How can he be the son of God? I ask Your Majesty to worship Mount Tai and become the Emperor of the Human."

The First Emperor was not weaker than others in his life, and he was the Fengshan Mountains three times in his life.

As soon as Li Chen said this, Zhao Gao, Li Sikuan, Wang Jian, and the civil and military officials of the court all said two words: "Listen Dogs".

"I'm going to reconsider." The civil and military officials in the court really responded in time. As soon as Li Chen finished speaking, he knelt down together.

This First Emperor is a person who can't rest. He just finished fighting with the Dayue people. Go to Fengshan. Climbing Mount Tai is better than fighting a war on a whim. What kind of palace is better to build? The civil and military officials in the court probably think this way.

"The second request was for civil and military officials in the court and soldiers on the frontier. I asked for the construction of three temples and one temple. These three temples are imperial temples, worship civil temples, and worship martial temples. This temple is a temple of loyalty and martyrs."

"The imperial temple worships His Majesty's ancestors, Kings of Qin throughout the ages."

"The Chongwen Temple should be worshipped by the ancestors who made great contributions to our Great Qin. I think Shang Yang and Shang Army should be the main priest, and Lord Li Si and Lord Li should enter it."

"Shangwu Temple should be worshipped as the generals who have lived and died in the Qin Dynasty. I think that Wu'an Jun Bai Qi should be the main priest, and Wang Jian and General Meng Tian should be included."

"If you can't do it, you can't do it. How can the old minister enter this temple with such a small contribution?" Wang Jian said with a disrespectful expression, but he said that he couldn't do it.

Li Chen ignored this shameless person and continued.

"The Loyal Martyrs Temple is built by thousands of ordinary soldiers in our army, and the Loyal Martyrs Temple is erected in the Loyal Martyrs Temple. As long as the soldiers, military craftsmen and leaders in our army are killed, they should leave their names in the Loyal Martyrs Temple. I believe that this is the king and those who shed blood for the country should not be forgotten."

"In this way, civil officials are willing to ask for the people's orders, military generals have the intention to die, and soldiers have no desire to live. The people's livelihood of our Great Qin will inevitably be even stronger and unparalleled."

"I'm going to review it." Before Li Chen finished speaking, he knelt down again.

"The third invitation is for the people of the world. I ask for the establishment of schools across the country and conduct three years of compulsory education. From recruiting young men aged eight to fifteen, I will write them into a book of thought courses by the heroic deeds of our Qin State. There should be military subjects, ideological subjects, and some shallow knowledge."

"In this way, my Daqin is truly united, and the whole people are soldiers and the whole people are fighting." Li Chen finished speaking.

"I will review it." The ministers said.

"I have agreed to all these three requests from Li Qing."

"Listen to your words, it's like a revelation."

"I deserve any official position, my dear," said the First Emperor.

"My science will surely become the mainstream in the future. Please build a university and teach science for me. I dare to be the vice president." Li Chen said.

"Why is the vice president?" asked the First Emperor.

"I think this dean must be done by Your Majesty. In the future, the world will be a disciple of the emperor. Isn't that a beautiful story?" Li Chen knew that the First Emperor must know the link. This routine of building a military school and becoming a principal and winning people's hearts will be a bald man in the future.

"Well, I'm sure." The Emperor of First Emperor responded lightly, and a look of satisfaction appeared on his face.

"I think about the construction of the school and the temple. Mr. Ronglu has already made plans, so let's talk about it together." The First Emperor asked.

"I think everything cannot be accomplished overnight. My Great Qin has been in short supply for many years. Now that we have just stopped fighting, our national strength has not yet recovered. I think it is enough to build a primary school in each county and build a Royal College in the Royal College of Qin in Chengjiao, Xianyang. This primary school is three years each year, and the exam is taken after the exam is over, and each elementary school is ranked first and will be included in the Royal College of Qin. The Great Qin Royal College lasts for six years, with a military department, a department of people's livelihood, a department of medical department, a department of craftsmanship, etc., and teaches according to your aptitude. Since this, all the talents in the world have been in your majesty's pocket. However, the cost from elementary school to university still requires the funding of your majesty. This plan is called nine years of compulsory education." Li Chen said slowly.

"From now on, the Shaofu will be responsible for preparing the three requests. All expenses will be allocated by the Shaofu, and the Ronglu Hou is ordered to be responsible for supervising the matters." The First Emperor ordered.

"Your Majesty, we have 36 counties in Qin State, totaling more than 1,000 counties. Although the autumn grain has been harvested now, it is not enough to support the cost of these more than 1,000 schools." The Shaofu Order knelt down and shouted, "This is really a skillful woman who can't cook without rice."

"There is a way for Ronglu Hou." The First Emperor asked Li Chen, but he did not blame the Shaofu Order. The current national strength of the Qin Dynasty really cannot support the construction of these more than a thousand schools at the same time.

"This imperial temple, Chongwen Temple, Shangwu Temple, Loyal Martyrs Temple and Daqin Royal College were funded by Shaofu. Although the project volume of primary schools across the country is larger, I have a way to make your Majesty rise up without spending a cent," Li Chen said.

"My dear, please tell me quickly if you have any solutions." The First Emperor asked hurriedly.

"I have a law called tendering. This powerful and wealthy households in the world can spontaneously build primary schools." Li Chen said.

"How to say this, it is well known that merchants are all people without kings and fathers, who are profit-making. How could they take out money to do such a thankless thing?" Li Si asked hurriedly.

"I plan that the first phase of the Great Qin Royal College is a crash course, and the school will start next year. Each county is a bid, and the businessmen of each county will bid, and the lowest price will win the bid. The winner is responsible for building county primary and secondary schools, and at the same time, you can get three places for the Great Qin Royal College." Li Chen said.

"Mr. Li's plan is very instant. In this way, these merchants are probably willing to build a school for one tael of silver for the title of the emperor's disciple." As soon as Li Chen finished speaking, Fusu suddenly realized.

"I ordered Ronglu Hou to be fully responsible for the three requests. The Shaofu will be the Shaofu to cooperate with him." After the scattered court, the imperial edict of the First Emperor arrived at the same time, Lijiazhuang and Shaofu will be the Shaofu.

"This son should not be underestimated." A low voice came from the prime minister's mansion.

"Li Zi, please be close to Ronglu Hou. You young people must be able to talk to each other." In the general's mansion, a white-haired old man was teaching his grandson.

"How many secrets do you have?" In the imperial garden, the red figure looked into the sky.
