Saint Qin Batu

There is no doubt that apart from Xun Kuangzhi, there is probably no other person who can have such a great reputation in Qi County, and even the entire six countries in the Kanto region.

Perhaps due to the pressure from the empire, Prince Fusu finally invited Xun Kuang out of the mountain to meet Ying Zheng in the city of Linzi.

Of course, apart from Xun Kuang, Fu Nian, the head of Xiaoshengxian Village, and Yan Lu, the second head of Xiaoshengxianzhuang, also came to Linzi City.As for Zhang Liang, he was left behind in Xiaoshengxianzhuang under the pretext.

"Mr. is able to come to Zi, it is really a blessing for me, and it is also a blessing for the empire!" Among the buildings in the palace, Ying Zheng said with a hint of joy.

To be honest, even Ying Zheng never thought that Prince Fusu would actually be able to invite Xun Kuang out of the mountain.You know, the old man in front of him is notoriously stubborn!

Facing Ying Zheng's words of praise, Xun Kuang didn't show the slightest expression of joy, but said flatly, "If Xun Xun doesn't come, I'm afraid there won't be a peaceful life..."

At Xun Kuang's words, Fusu Lisi and others behind Yingzheng shuddered.Such presumptuous remarks, if spoken by ordinary ministers, would probably kill the nobles and kill them, and they are all light.

However, Ying Zheng smiled. Instead of being angry, he nodded in agreement and said, "What you say makes sense. If you can't come, helping Su, I'm afraid it will really give you a headache for a long time."

Although Fusu is already the crown prince and has even performed the coronation ceremony, he is only 16 years old after all. With Yingzheng's status, it is natural to say that he is a child.

In a word, it not only covered up Fusu's soft and hard tactics against Xun Kuang and Xiao Shengxianzhuang, but also secretly affirmed Fusu's achievements.

After hearing Ying Zheng's words, not only Fusu, Li Si and others breathed a sigh of relief.Fu Nian and Yan Lu also breathed a sigh of relief.

"I really don't know whether it's right or wrong to invite Mr. Xun Kuang here." Fusu couldn't help sighing secretly.

Although Yingzheng's words and his performance were full of affirmation, Fusu couldn't help feeling a little bitter in his heart.

Worried about what might happen to Xun Kuang's stubborn character, Ying Zheng didn't speak up.He just accompanied Xun Kuang, admiring the elegant demeanor of the palace casually.

However, after the previous incident, not only Xun Kuang was not in the mood to look at this gorgeous palace, but even Fusu and the others couldn't help speeding up their pace.

After much difficulty, they finally arrived at the main hall of King Qi's early dynasty.However, the real gladiatorial fight, until now, can be regarded as the real beginning.

"Since Mr. Xun Kuang has come to this palace, he must have already answered." Ying Zheng waited until everyone sat down, looked at Xun Kuang, and stopped beating around the bush and asked bluntly.

Xun Kuang was silent for a moment, and then said: "My Confucian teacher took it as his duty to educate the world. If Your Majesty wants to enlighten the world, my Confucian school will naturally fully support it."

Xun Kuang's words sounded like he had already agreed to Ying Zheng's proposal, but everyone present knew that Xun Kuang, who had always been famous for his stubbornness, definitely had something to offer.

Sure enough, without waiting for Ying Zheng to speak, Xun Kuang said again: "However, my Confucian power is too weak to take on important responsibilities. As for the bishop His Majesty mentioned, I dare not steal his position."

"Since this is the case, Mr. Xun Kuang thinks, who among the Confucianists is worthy of this job?" Ying Zheng asked rhetorically.

Xun Kuang was silent for a while, and then said: "The old man thinks that Li Si, Prime Minister of the Left, can be an important task."

As soon as Xun Kuang's words fell, the atmosphere in the hall suddenly changed.Li Si, who was the prime minister on the left, glanced at Xun Kuang but remained indifferent.

"No!"

However, at this moment, there was an excited voice of opposition from the hall.

Everyone looked at the last seat, but they saw that Chunyu Yue, who had always been ignored by everyone, stood up excitedly and said, "Master Zuo is a member of Legalism, how can he replace my seat of Confucianism?"

As soon as this remark came out, not only Xun Kuang and the others frowned, but also a ruthless look flashed in the eyes of Li Si, Prime Minister of the Left.

Educating the world sounds nice in name, but in fact it offends the sensitive positions of other schools of thought. Li Si, who is the prime minister of the left, cannot fail to see it.

However, even so, Li Sigui was the left chancellor of the empire, and by no means a little Chunyuyue could point fingers at him.

"Who does Chunyu Aiqing think is suitable?" Ying Zheng smiled and asked without rhetoric.

"After Confucius, Kong Yu!" Seeing that Ying Zheng didn't refute him, Chunyu Yue hurriedly said the answer in his heart.

"What do Mr. Xun Kuang think?" Ying Zheng looked at Xun Kuang again and asked.

Xun Kuang's face was uncertain.In his heart, he was even more annoyed that Chunyu didn't understand the overall situation.

Confucianism agreed to cooperate with the empire, which was a helpless move.If he really agrees to the conditions of Yingzheng, I am afraid that before the Confucianism can take the position of enlightening the world, it will be retaliated by the forces from all corners of the country.

Even, not only in the Jianghu, but also in the court, there will be many people secretly making troubles.At that time, Confucianism will be in a dangerous situation of not being human inside and out.

Xun Kuang ignored Chunyuyue's suggestion, but instead said: "To enlighten the world, we need enough letters. Without these, everything is empty talk..."

"Zhen, I heard that Confucianism is full of ancient books from the six countries!" Ying Zheng interrupted Xun Kuang's next words without waiting for Xun Kuang to finish.

"Although there are many slips in the library, they are not enough for the world to use..." Xun Kuang still shook his head and sighed.

"Since I let my husband be in charge of enlightenment, I will naturally handle this matter well." Ying Zheng waved his hand and said.

Ying Zheng's words surprised Xun Kuang.I thought that the empire would use Confucianism to divide the power of the rivers and lakes, but I couldn't help being shaken.

Xun Kuang, after all, has his own ambitions.

If Yingzheng's "education of the world" can really be implemented, he doesn't mind taking a risk and fighting for a chance to be famous in history.

"Zhao Gao, present the things here." Ying Zheng glanced at Zhao Gao and said.

"Here!" Zhao Gao bent over and walked towards the side hall.

Xun Kuang frowned and couldn't help being curious.

Burning letters is a time-consuming and consumable matter, and it is the biggest obstacle to enlightenment.It is impossible to educate the world without sufficient financial resources.

Zhao Gao soon returned to the hall again, but there was an extra box in his hand that wasn't too big.

"Crack!"

Zhao Gao gently opened the box, and several items that looked like cloth but were as light as cicada's wings appeared before everyone's eyes.

"This thing was created by the Gongshu family. I call it paper!"

Chapter 382

The paper, as thin as a cicada's wing, was placed in front of Xun Kuang.

Xun Kuang frowned, looking at the novelty in front of him, he couldn't help being curious.It's just that, out of face, I'm not ashamed to ask.

Fortunately, Ying Zheng didn't intend to hide it from everyone.He directly ordered Zhao Gao to take out a pair of ready-made paper books and present them in front of everyone.

The thin paper is different from those bamboo slips in the past.Not only is it lighter, but the content that can be written far exceeds that of bamboo slips.

And the paper book that Zhao Gao took out later shocked Xun Kuang even more.

A paper book that is not too thick can even write a lot more than the expensive silk in the past.

Xun Kuang silently flipped through the paper book in his hand, his face was cloudy, but the light in his eyes became brighter and brighter.

The box of paper Zhao Gao took out was not too much, but it was enough for everyone present to have a copy.
