Saint Qin Batu

Originally, as the prime minister on the left, Li Si naturally didn't have to perform such a grand ceremony.However, since Chun Yuyue who came with him has all paid homage, if he continues to perform ordinary etiquette, he will lose the point of talking.

Li Si, who lowered his head, felt extremely regretful in his heart at this moment.

However, what he regretted was not this mere worship.Rather, Chunyu Yue's pedantic problem has not been corrected in the past few decades, on the contrary, it has intensified.

"I hope His Majesty won't take his anger out on me..."

At this moment, Li Si didn't even dare to ask Chunyu Yue not to offend Yingzheng.I can only pray that Ying Zheng's anger will not burn on him in the future.

"Mr. Chunyu, please stand up. Zhao Gao, give me a seat." Ying Zheng, who was above the main hall, gave an order to Zhao Gao while pretending to be supporting him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chun Yuyue saluted respectfully again before taking the cushion and sitting down.

"I've heard that the Master has always been famous in the world for his learning of sage-kings. I don't know, what is the learning of sage-kings?"

Ying Zheng's straight-to-the-point words made Chunyu Yue happy.Secretly thought, Yingzheng is indeed a generation of Mingjun, with an ancient style of humbly asking questions.

"Returning to Your Majesty, the so-called sage king's law is not only the law of the ancients! It is also the words of the ancestor of my Confucianism, self-denial and ritual."

"Learn from the ancient law? Restrain yourself and return to the courtesy? I hope you will explain it in detail!" Ying Zheng continued to ask with a hint of interest in his tone.

The joy on Chunyu Yue's face became more and more intense, and he continued: "Since King Wu opened the Zhou Dynasty, the rule of the Duke of Zhou has been based on ritual and music, and distribution of feudal titles."

As soon as Chunyu Yue's words came out, many courtiers immediately started discussing in low voices again.

It's just that, unlike Chun Yuyue, compared to Chun Yuyue who paid more attention to rituals and music, what they cared more about was the method of enfeoffment.

Today, although the empire has passed ten years.However, rumors about enfeoffment have been circulating in the court all along.

In particular, Ying Zheng's attitude of turning a blind eye made such rumors or voices intensify among the scholar-bureaucrats in the court.

However, intimidated by Ying Zheng's prestige, no one dared to take advantage of his official career and put forward such an idea in this hall that belonged to Ying Zheng.

But, what kind of reaction will Ying Zheng have?All the ministers were unavoidably feeling uneasy at this moment.

Chapter 327 No more weekly rituals

Unlike the courtiers who fantasized about becoming kings and domineering princes, Li Si, who knew Yingzheng's intentions well, felt a bit cold at the moment.

If Yingzheng really had the slightest intention of entrusting him, how could he wait for ten years?If the old system is really feasible, how can Ying Zheng go to great lengths to implement the new system?

Ying Zheng tapped on the throne, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of what Chunyu Yue said.

Chun Yuyue, who didn't know much about Ying Zheng, thought that Ying Zheng's heart was moved by his words, and immediately said: "Your Majesty is merciful, allowing the people who have suffered from wars to recuperate. For ten years now, they have all the fields to cultivate and clothes to wear." Wear. Foot can be described as, Wufu Minfeng!

Guanzi has a saying, if the granary is real, you know the etiquette, and if you have enough food and clothing, you know the honor and disgrace.Your Majesty must feed and warm all the people in the world, so that you can learn from the countryside and enjoy rituals and music..."

"allow!"

Ying Zheng's majestic voice resounded in the hall, and Chunyu Yue, who was still talking freely, was slightly taken aback.

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Chun Yuyue, who was stunned for a moment, was overjoyed, stood up, and bowed respectfully again.

In the main hall, Chunyu Yue's excited voice kept echoing in the ears of all the courtiers.

However, those courtiers who have been in court for more than ten years still looked at Ying Zheng in a daze, with some disbelief.

Even Zhao Gao, who was beside Ying Zheng, looked at Chun Yuyue in his feminine eyes, which was a little strange.

"Your Majesty agreed so easily?"

"Separation, is it possible that His Majesty has long thought of distribution?"

One question after another lingers in the minds of the officials, and at the same time, it is more about the desire for enfeoffment.

However, this longing had never really arisen before it was mercilessly extinguished by Ying Zheng's cold water.

"I agree with what Mr. Chunyu mentioned earlier. However, I am not optimistic about the method of enfeoffment proposed by Mr. Chunyu."

"This……"

Chun Yuyue, who had just been recognized, hadn't reacted from the joy, but was shocked by Ying Zheng's words.

The Zhou system of ritual and music was originally created to cater to the enfeoffment system, but now Yingzheng only revived the ritual and music, but not the enfeoffment, which made Chunyu Yue a little puzzled.

It's just that Ying Zheng just agreed with one of his points of view. If he contradicts Ying Zheng with strong words at this time, it will inevitably make people feel that they don't know how to reciprocate.

And this is obviously against the law of a gentleman that he has always followed.However, without enfeoffment, how can ritual and music be truly revived?

After hesitating again and again, Chun Yuyue cupped his hands and said under the earnest eyes of all the courtiers: "Your Majesty, the more you think, the restoration of rituals and music will lead to the restoration of feudal titles. How can..."

"Fuli music?"

However, this time Yingzheng did not wait for Chunyuyue to finish speaking again, and said in a doubtful tone: "When did I say that the system of ritual and music will be restored?"

"Your Majesty, how can you be dishonest?" Chunyu became anxious when he heard that Ying Zheng wanted to go back on his word.

"I only agreed to set up a rural school, but I never said that it would revive the rites and music of the Zhou Dynasty." Ying Zheng's cold voice shattered the last illusion of the courtiers.

Seeing Yingzheng's blatant nonsense, Chunyu Yue blushed unexpectedly, and said, "Confucius, the ancestor of my Confucianism, established rural studies for the purpose of revitalizing Zhou rituals. How can your majesty change it in vain?"

"Sir, he opened his mouth and kept his mouth closed. Do you think that a person surnamed Ji is more suitable to sit in my position?" Ying Zheng also completely put away his previous amiable face, and his murderous intent was revealed in his words.

"presumptuous!"

"Bold!"

Li Si and Feng Quji, who were the two prime ministers on the left and right, shouted at Chunyu Yue at the same time.A strong oppression from the superiors made Chun Yuyue, who had never really set foot in the court, retreat several steps incessantly.

In addition, many of the courtiers who were originally full of dark thoughts also fell into the ice cave, and their backs were even wet with sweat.

Apparently, what happened today has been considered by them to be a deliberate attempt by Ying Zheng to test their selfishness.

"The more dare not!"

Chunyu knelt down in a hurry, and a layer of fine beads of sweat formed on his forehead.Although he is pedantic, it doesn't mean he doesn't even understand the most basic imperial taboos.

Otherwise, he would not work hard to enter the court to see Ying Zheng, but would starve to death on the barren hills like Boyi and Shuqi at the end of the Shang Dynasty.

"Sir, open your mouth to return to the etiquette, but shut your mouth to learn from the ancients. If the ancient people's method is really as the master said, it is a perfect method, then why, today, it is I who have changed Zhuxia, not a person with the surname Ji?"

The beads of sweat on Chunyuyue's forehead grew bigger and bigger. Ordinary people would dare not answer such harsh words.However, after hesitating for a moment, Chun Yuyue suppressed the fear in his heart, and still said, "Zhou Zhihuai belongs to King You, not Zhouzhi."

Ying Zheng stood up slowly, squinting his eyes slightly, as if he wanted to smash Chun Yuyue, who had been contradicting him, to death on the spot.

"Since sir thinks Zhou is in decline, in King You, then tell me, why is Zhou still weakening 400 years after King You?"
