Time Travel: The First Female Imperial Teacher of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 8 Confucianism can be used as a whetstone

"Okay, just tell me what you need and I will satisfy you." Ying Zheng said proudly.

"With these things, if the First Emperor still cannot destroy the Huns within a year, I will have nothing to say!" Lin Anlan raised her head and said with high spirits. She had the qualifications to be high spirits. After all, she possessed insights and knowledge that surpassed this era.

Wang Li's breathing quickened: "Mr. Lin, are you serious?"

For military generals, nothing can make them more excited than fighting.

Lin Anlan nodded affirmatively.

"Great! With these things, our Great Qin army will be the most powerful army in the world." Wang Li said excitedly, and then he bowed to her, "Mr. Lin, on behalf of the soldiers of the Great Qin, I thank you."

He was really impressed by Lin Anlan. Producing 5,000 kilograms of grain per mu was something he had never dared to imagine, but she said she could do it.

At this moment, Wang Li seemed to see the scene of the Qin army conquering the world.

"Mr. Lin is very talented, but..." Ying Zheng suddenly thought of something and frowned, "But Mr. Lin, will the appearance of these things make those soldiers slack off?"

"Brother, you're worrying too much." Lin Anlan smiled slightly.

Ying Zheng looked at her curiously: "Oh? Why?"

"Do you think that since the campaign against the Baiyue people ended, have the soldiers started to slack off? Because they no longer have enemies, they are eager to return to their hometowns." Lin Anlan smiled slightly, "I have a plan that can help His Majesty the First Emperor become famous throughout the world."

"Please teach me, Mr. Lin, and I will inform His Majesty the First Emperor." Ying Zheng's eyes lit up and he said quickly.

Even Meng Yi's eyes lit up. They had seen the power of Lin Anlan's strategy. As soon as the Enfeoffment Order was issued, those vassal states disappeared. They really wanted to know what good idea she could come up with this time.

"Everyone says that Confucianism is useless, and some even think it is a disaster." Lin Anlan shook his head, "But I think Confucianism can be used as a whetstone."

"What is a whetstone?" Ying Zheng asked puzzledly.

"The soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are the swords, and Confucianism is the whetstone." Lin Anlan smiled mysteriously.

Ying Zheng's eyes suddenly lit up, as if he had grasped something key: "Mr. Lin means that Confucianism can inspire the bloodiness of soldiers?"

"That's right." Lin Anlan nodded with a smile, "There are thousands of ancestral dragon statues in the Great Qin."

"Thousands of ancestral dragon statues of the Great Qin?"

The three of them were shocked and looked at Lin Anlan in disbelief.

"That's right. Build a thousand statues of the Zulong all over the country so that people all over the country will believe in the First Emperor."

"Hiss~" Meng Yi and the others took a breath of cold air. They seemed to see a statue of Qin Shi Huang as tall as a mountain, towering over all parts of the Qin State. Every citizen who went out could see the heroic figure of the First Emperor.

Ying Zheng suppressed his excitement and nodded: "This is a great idea!"

He knew that if these one thousand statues could really be erected throughout the Qin State, then his personal cult would be nailed into the hearts of the people.

"Mr. Lin's plan is very good." Meng Yi also looked at Lin Anlan in shock. He did not expect that Lin Anlan could come up with such a plan so easily. It was simply... simply mind-blowing.

He suddenly saw Wang Li standing beside him and said quickly, "Little Wang, hurry up and pour wine for Mr. Lin."

"Yes, yes, yes." Wang Li quickly poured wine for Lin Anlan, and then said very sincerely, "Mr. Lin, I, Wang Li, have never been convinced by anyone in my life. You are the first one."

"Nothing, just some little tricks." Lin Anlan waved his hand.

"If these strategies are used, they are much better than those military books." Wang Li said with emotion. He found that he liked chatting with Lin Anlan more and more. Lin Anlan, who could easily come up with such a powerful strategy, was definitely worthy of his respect.

Ying Zheng said with a smile: "Mr. Lin, after I return, I will arrange this matter and let His Majesty the First Emperor know as soon as possible."

"it is good."

Lin Anlan nodded.

Ying Zheng looked at Wang Li and said, "My little prince, I will give you one month to bring people to build all these statues. Meng Er and I will pay for all the money needed. Just focus on your work!"

"Yes, Uncle Zhao." Wang Li responded quickly, "I promise to complete it within a month."

Meng Yi, however, looked at Ying Zheng with a bitter face and some resentment after hearing this: Your Majesty! If you want to pay, just pay. Why do you take me with you? Where can I get so much money? My elder brother is also penniless, alas!

"Okay, I believe you." Ying Zheng simply ignored the former's gaze and patted Wang Li on the shoulder.

"let's go."

The matter has been discussed and he has to go back to arrange the next things.

Looking at the backs of several people, Lin Anlan showed a smile. Her plan was half successful. Next, it depends on the operation of Ying Zheng and others. Once successful, the rest will be much easier.

In the carriage, Ying Zheng looked at Meng Yi and asked, "Meng Yi, what kind of official position do you think would be best for Mr. Lin?"

Meng Yi's expression was very serious: "Your Majesty, I think Ms. Lin must serve as an official in the court. Only by serving as an official in the court can Ms. Lin's talents be brought into full play. Moreover... she must be given a relatively large degree of freedom, so that she can fully display her abilities."

"Then what official position would be most suitable for her?" Ying Zheng asked.

"This..." Meng Yi fell into deep thought.

Wang Li's eyes suddenly lit up: "Your Majesty, I think there is a place that is very suitable for Mr. Lin."

Ying Zheng and Meng Yi looked at him at the same time: "Where?"

"The Imperial Censor!"

The Grand Censor was responsible for supervising all officials.

However, after a while, Ying Zheng shook his head and said, "No, although the Imperial Censor has the responsibility to supervise all officials, his actual power is not great. What Mr. Lin wants to do is not something that a Imperial Censor can handle alone!"

"Your Majesty, there is no suitable position for Ms. Lin in the court." Meng Yi sighed, "Let her be a general? Or a prime minister? Neither is suitable, unless a special position can be set up for her."

"Hmm." Ying Zheng thought about it and nodded with satisfaction, "Okay, then I'll do as you say and create an official position for her."

"I see that Ms. Lin likes farming so much, why not let her be the Minister of Agriculture?" Wang Li said after thinking for a while.

"Grand Minister of Agriculture?" Ying Zheng and Meng Yi were stunned.

"Yes, it is the Minister of Agriculture." Wang Li said, "Mr. Lin's contribution to the Qin Dynasty is enough to qualify him for the position of Minister of Agriculture."

But Ying Zheng still shook his head: "The official position you are talking about actually already exists. It is one of the Nine Ministers, the Internal Affairs of Zhili. Moreover...Ms. Lin's talents are far more than just farming. She also has unique insights into military tactics and business. She even has talents that we don't know about."
