Chapter 15 The rough man also has spring

In the past, Li Xin didn't like to attend court meetings, because he was a rough man and a martial artist. He would not make any noise if he could do anything. But if he really made a quarrel, he would be clumsy and tongue-tied, and he would not be able to convince others.

However, this court meeting was all about quoting scriptures, making lengthy arguments, quarreling, and arguing endlessly.

Every time, Li Xin just stared at him and let the learned men talk endlessly.

And some confused thoughts kept flashing through Li Xin's mind: "Who is Liezi? What does Mozi do? Gongsun Long? How come I haven't heard of him at all?"

It's really embarrassing.

But today, Li Xin came early because he was full of confidence this time and wanted to pick up the face he had left on the ground.

Li Xin was the first to arrive. It didn't take long, and people came one after another.

After seeing Li Xin, several doctors were immediately elated, as if they had seen some rare and exotic beast.

They stroked their beards and said to Li Xin: "General Li arrived very early. I wonder what he has to say this time?"

Li Xin hummed twice: "I do have good advice, but I only report it to the king, not anyone else."

Another doctor chuckled and said: "The title of 'First King' proposed by General Li last time was so wonderful and breathtaking. I wonder if I can be ingenious again this time."

The doctors around burst into laughter.

The doctor asked excitedly before: "General Li, what title will you give this time?"

Li Xin said nothing.

The doctor shook his head and said, "I have drafted some titles based on General Li's style, but I don't know if they suit your taste."

Li Xin said nothing.

The doctors all booed and asked, "What title did you designate for General Li?"

The doctor said before: "For example: The No. 1 King in the World? Well... this title is a little too long, how about calling it: King of Heaven and Earth?"

The doctors laughed so much that they shed tears. They all held their stomachs and beat their chests.

After laughing for a while, a doctor was the first to react. He hissed and said, "Be careful, be careful. A gentleman talks with his words but never with his hands."

As soon as this was said, the doctors all fell silent.

They seem to have just remembered that this General Li Xin is a reckless man. He will take action if he disagrees with him. Today he was laughed at by everyone. What if he gets angry out of embarrassment?

Doctors are all gentlemen, and even one of them might not be able to defeat him.

However, Li Xin was very calm today. Even when he was ridiculed, he did not blush or glare. Instead, he looked at everyone with a calm expression, as if he was watching a group of clowns.

The doctors were a little puzzled. Li Xin looked very confident. Could it be that he had thought of a suitable name?

Impossible, impossible. A martial artist who only knows how to dance with a spear and a stick can come up with a title. So why do you need a doctor? What do you need a hundred schools of thought to do? Just burn the poems and books and go practice martial arts.

At this time, Chunyu Yue came over. Those doctors were all honest.

Chunyu Yue was a great scholar of the time and the teacher of Prince Fusu. He was already considered the leader of the doctors.

Everyone knew about his relationship with Li Xin, so they would not make fun of Li Xin in front of him.

Although Chunyu Yue often reprimanded Li Xin, he was a member of his own family. He could say whatever he said, but others might not.

After Chunyu Yue arrived, he glanced at Li Xin and whispered: "Don't speak today, just listen to the discussion."

Li Xin said unconvinced: "Dr. Chunyu, why do you order me?"

Chunyu Yue's lungs hurt a little from anger: "Li Xin, don't be ignorant. If it weren't for Li Ji's sake, I wouldn't bother to care about you."

At this time, a young eunuch said loudly: "The king has arrived, and the court meeting has begun."

So the officials all calmed down and lined up their ranks.

Ying Zheng sat at the top and said a little tiredly: "We have been discussing the title for some time, but has there been any result?"

A doctor stood up and said: "The titles are nothing more than King, Emperor Qin, and Emperor Tai. Today's endless debates are all about these three titles."

Ying Zheng said with some distress: "It's these three names again. You are arguing every day, but each has his own opinion. When will the discussion come to a result? Isn't there a way to get the best of both worlds?"

At this time, Li Xin seized the opportunity and stood up and said: "Your Majesty, the general has some ideas."

Chunyu Yue was shocked and angry, and shouted in a low voice: "Li Xin, go back. Don't show your ugliness."

Li Xin frowned and said, "I haven't spoken yet, how did you know that I was going to make a fool of myself?"

Chunyu Yue's face was ashen and he said: "This is to determine the honorary title. A well-educated man cannot yet make a final decision. You are a martial artist, what can you do with it?"

Li Xin said loudly: "Since the name has been decided and the warriors can't help, why do I and the generals still stand here and act as wooden stakes?"

As soon as these words came out, the generals nodded repeatedly. It was obvious that Li Xin's words had reached their hearts.

However, military generals are not monolithic. For example, Wang Ben, Wang Li and his son.

Wang Li said with a smile: "Originally, military generals can participate in discussions, but there are always vulgar generals like General Li who speak randomly. The so-called mouse droppings ruin a pot of soup. General Li stands here and lets all those civil and military officials

The talented military general is a little inferior."

These words clearly pointed out that Li Xin was scolded: You have embarrassed the general, get out of here.

Li Xin was furious, pointed at Wang Li and said: "You recommended the rebel Lu Lie, and you don't know the man well. Why don't you remove yourself from office and leave the court? What do you think of standing here?"

Wang Li was a little speechless and explained: "The general has already given ten thousand gold and apologized to General Li. Could it be that General Li has forgotten?"

Li Xin sneered and said: "You gave me ten thousand gold, but you lost the bet on your life. Ten thousand gold is the money to buy your life. And you recommended me improperly, and you haven't been punished yet."

Wang Li had nothing to say.

Wang Ben bowed his hands to Ying Zheng and said: "I would like to punish Gouzi with an appropriate crime. He will be fined one year's salary according to the law."

Ying Zheng said calmly: "Yun."

Then, Ying Zheng looked at Li Xin and said, "What do you think about the title decision? You can tell me."

Li Xin agreed and said: "The title proposed by the last general is only two characters. With the title of Da Qin, it may be three characters."

The officials laughed.

This Li Xin is really unique.

When others draw up their titles, they are just the words Wang, Emperor, Huang, etc., with the word Qin and the word Tai in front of them as modifications.

Fortunately for him, he just said two words directly.

The "number one king" last time was weird enough. What? He hasn't learned his lesson yet?

When Li Xin saw that he hadn't said his name yet, but only said the number of words, everyone laughed like this. Suddenly he felt a little unsure.

He bit the bullet and said, "Don't be biased. Yes, I, Li Xin, am a martial artist, but this title was chosen through negotiation between me and Huaiguzi. Huaiguzi has unique skills and is a great man in the world. He helped me choose it.

Is there anything wrong with the given name?"

As soon as these words were spoken, the courtiers laughed even harder.

Who? Huaiguzi? The alchemist who failed in alchemy and almost demolished the alchemy room?

Yes, he was just lucky enough to cure Mr. Fu Yao. Even if he has great medical skills, even if he really dreamed of immortals.

But this man acted recklessly and spoke vulgarly. I heard that he had beaten other alchemists twice today.

What good title can such a person come up with?
