"What Chang'an Jun said?" Zhao Gao asked in surprise.

Li Si's writing was a little slow, as if a movie had been played twice as long.

From this tone, it seems that Zhao Gao did not know much about the Lord of Chang'an.

"Brother Zhao seems to be very surprised." Li Si delivered the sentence very smoothly.

Zhao Gao knew that the question he just asked gave Li Si a glimpse of a flaw, but he could not think of any other remedy for a moment.

He could only say as naturally as possible: "It is indeed true. He can perfect such a detailed system by himself. Anyone else would be amazed by Gao."

Li Si nodded with sympathy and said: "It is true. Hearing Lord Chang'an's words is still shocking to this day. Lord Chang'an seems to have seen the future development of the county system with his own eyes, and the certainty of what he said shocked him deeply. If it weren't for

I came up with this system of prefectures and counties in three days of meditation, and I thought it was Lord Chang'an who came up with it."

Li Si wrote the last stroke and finished it with ease and ease.

It is said that calligraphy is like the person he is, but Li Si's handwriting is completely different from his rigid self. His handwriting is beautiful and elegant, and can be called a masterpiece of calligraphy.

Li Si blew the bamboo slip gently to make the ink dry faster.

Then he rolled it up from the right side of the bamboo slip to the left and handed it to Zhao Gao. He said to Zhao Gao apologetically: "Brother Zhao, please help Si carry one roll. This bamboo slip is too heavy. It will be very difficult for Si to hold three rolls."

Zhao Gao did not take the bamboo slips handed over by Li Si, but held the two volumes of bamboo slips written by Li Si in his hands.

Looking at him, he looked so calm and calm, as if the two bamboo slips in his hands, which were as long as an adult's forearm, weighed nothing.

"Brother Li used wisdom and strength. This bamboo slip is indeed extremely heavy. Maybe it won't be long before the Chang'an Palace has something as thin and light as a cicada's wings that can replace the bamboo slip." Zhao Gao said, if not unintentionally, in fact.

This time, Li Si did not slow down his movements, nor did his speaking speed change. His rigid face made it even harder for people to see what he was really thinking.

"Thank you very much, Brother Zhao, for your advice. I owe all my successes to Brother Zhao."

The two traveled together, and as soon as they left the front door of the Li Mansion, they were stopped by an official from the Tingwei Mansion.

"Sir Tingwei, Mr. Tingweizheng, please return to Tingwei's mansion as soon as possible to hear the case."

Both Li Si and Zhao Gao ignored this little official.

As if they didn't hear what the clerk was saying, they bypassed the clerk and headed towards the carriage that had been parked outside Li's house.

Seeing this, the clerk trotted between the two people and the carriage, opened his arms, looked directly at Li Si and repeated: "Sir Tingwei, Mr. Tingwei Zheng, please return to Tingwei's Mansion as soon as possible to hear the case."

Zhao Gao smiled slightly, feeling that this little official was a bit interesting, but he didn't know which courtier had bewitched him, and he even risked his life.

"roll."

Li Si saw Zhao Gao's attitude towards the minor officials and knew what Zhao Gao was thinking.

But he knew that this little official was born with a stubborn mind and was not a pawn of others in the court, so he said with a straight face: "Has the suspect been caught?"

The clerk's outstretched arms suddenly felt a little weak, and his answering voice was much softer than before.

"Never."

"The suspect has not been arrested. Who do you want me to interrogate? Why don't we arrest the suspect quickly?"

"only."

Zhao Gao looked at the back of the clerk who ran away in a hurry.

"When it comes to life and death, I can still tell the difference clearly."

Li Siming knew the temperament of the junior official, but he still agreed: "What Brother Zhao said is absolutely true."

In Tingwei's Mansion, Tingwei was waiting and waiting, guarding the left prison of Tingwei who was struggling hard. He finally saw the officer sent to look for Li Si enter the house, and his eyes lit up.

"Where is Lord Tingwei?"

"In Li's Mansion."

Tingwei's vision went dark and he almost fainted. He held on to the wall of Tingwei's house and gritted his teeth and said, "Master Tingwei is in the house, so what are you doing here?"

The clerk said confidently: "How can we arrest someone if there is no suspect? Lord Ting Wei said, arrest the suspect first."

To arrest the suspect? The one who commanded was His Majesty's own brother Ying Chengyu, and the one who took action was Zhang Han, the Commander-in-Chief of the Nine Palaces. Without His Majesty's orders, who would dare to arrest these two? Ask Li Si if he dares?

"Go back to the Li Mansion! Go and invite Lord Tingwei again! Forget it, I'll go with you!"

"Master Tingwei is no longer in the Li Mansion. When I came back, Master Tingwei was getting into the carriage with a eunuch."

Tingwei, who was originally walking in a hurry and looking panicked, suddenly lost his hurry when he heard the word eunuch.

In the entire Xianyang City, there was only one place with eunuchs, Xianyang Palace.

Tingwei turned around and looked at the clerk, pointing at Tingwei's left prisoner and saying: "Look at the left prisoner, I'll go find Lord Tingwei."

After leaving Tingwei's mansion, Tingwei stopped and looked in the direction of Xianyang Palace, showing no intention of looking for Li Si.

With His Majesty's intervention, the case has nothing to do with the Tingwei Mansion.

Zhangtai Palace.

The First Emperor lay on the table and looked at the three bamboo slips covered with Li Si's writing on the table. He was overjoyed.

"Cai! This is the real system of counties and counties! This is the system of Great Qin that I want in my heart!"

The First Emperor did not hide his inner thoughts, he was overjoyed, dancing with his hands and feet. Judging from his performance, he actually didn't know how to be happy.

"Mr. Li's great talents, even if they are Guan Zhong and Fan Li, are far inferior to him. Mr. Li's entry into the Qin Dynasty is a blessing to me and a blessing to the Qin Dynasty. Gai Nie proposed that Li Sijue be promoted to the third level and be granted the title of prime minister.

As a reward to the state, you will be rewarded with a fine horse, five thousand gold, and a pair of jade!"

The First Emperor spoke so quickly and urgently that Li Si had no room to interrupt.

Li Si did not dare to forcefully interrupt the First Emperor's speech, so he could only listen, feeling ashamed on his face because of the success of pretending to be the leader of Ying Chenglong, and bleeding in his heart because he could not be promoted to the third level and granted the title of Prime Minister.

It wasn't until Gai Nie was about to polish his ink and draft an edict that Li Si had a chance to speak. He quickly said, "Your Majesty, this is the work of Lord Chang'an. I dare not take it away from you."

The First Emperor, who held Li Si's hands tightly and shook them constantly to show that he valued Li Si, stopped shaking.

"Cheng Xi?"

"It's Mr. Chang'an."

"What you wrote was what he told you?"

"Ninety-nine percent of it is what Lord Chang'an said. I, at most, played a general role in this."

How come this Zhuzi understands everything? It was clearly Li Si who came up with the county system under my guidance, but looking at the bamboo slips, it seems that this Zhuzi came up with it. With such a comprehensive and meticulous county system, this Zhuzi seems to have seen its implementation.

For more than a thousand years, the county system has been perfected to the extreme.

The First Emperor snorted coldly and said, "Then what else did Zhuzi say?"

Li Si bowed down and said sincerely, "Your Majesty, Lord Chang'an really has some unfinished words. Lord Chang'an said: 'If you want to finish the unfinished business in the court, you can steal the sky and change the sun in the name of Legalism.' Lord Chang'an really is that."

Genius, I have never seen anyone like the King of Chang'an, I have never known anyone like the King of Chang'an in history, and I have never heard of rumors that there is anyone like the King of Chang'an."

I have never seen anyone as talented as Lord Chang'an in real life, there is no person as talented as Lord Chang'an in the history that I know of, and there is no person as talented as Lord Chang'an in the rumors I have heard.

These three words of Li Si raised Ying Chengxiao to a height that was simply as high as the sky.

Gai Nie looked at Li Si, who had a stereotyped face, expressionlessly, and labeled the Tingwei, who had the same facial paralysis as him, as a "dog licker."

Zhao Gao silently kept Li Si's words in mind, planning to polish them and find an opportunity to tell them to the First Emperor in the future.

The First Emperor didn't show much reaction to Li Si's words of flattery to Ying Chengyu. He showed that he was very interested in what Li Si had just said on behalf of Ying Chengyu.

Pulling Li Si to sit on both sides of the table, the First Emperor waved his hands to Gai Nie and Zhao Gao, asking them to stay out of their way.

After driving away the two men, the First Emperor sat upright and said: "Why do you steal the sky and change the sun in the name of Legalism?"

Li Si didn't dare to sell the truth - not to mention that the truth was not his in the first place, he was just a sounding board.

"Your Majesty has seen the whole picture of the system of prefectures and counties. When the court meeting is held again, I and the Legalist disciples in the court will work together to refute the feudal system with the system of prefectures and counties perfected by Lord Chang'an. Your Majesty will implement the system of prefectures and counties at this time.

This was because the enfeoffment system was inferior to the system of counties and counties. The implementation of the system of counties and counties required many officials. At this time, the minister proposed the assessment standards to standardize local Qin officials - that is, taking legal stripes as the first assessment standard. So far.

If we don't move forward, the officials will only think that this is an introduction to the system of prefectures and counties for the millennium development of Legalism, and will not think that this has anything to do with His Majesty."

The First Emperor began to speak from Li Si and listened from beginning to end without interrupting Li Si.

After listening, the First Emperor was sitting there in a trance, not knowing what he was thinking.

Li Si felt a little surprised and a little hard to understand when he didn't get any words of praise from the First Emperor.

What he just boasted about Ying Chengxuan was naturally exaggerated, but Li Si actually really felt that Ying Chengxuan's suggestion was indeed good.

First of all, when the First Emperor did not die, the disciples of Legalism worked together to refute the feudal system with the system of counties and counties. This would lead to an established fact that the feudal system was inferior to the system of counties and counties.

So the fact that Li Si is the trumpet of the First Emperor will be a big impact - can one person come up with such a complete system of counties and counties? This is obviously the result of the collective efforts of all Legalist disciples.

Then Li Si asked again: The first evaluation criterion for all local Qin officials is legal provisions.

This is equivalent to using Legalist theory as Qin's teaching material, which is obviously for the Millennium Development Plan of Legalism.

It is said that the interests of development are higher than the interests of feudal states. This view is now accepted by most people. Isn’t this the reason why Confucianism keeps jumping up and down?

Using the development of Legalism as a shield to block the First Emperor from behind was the remedy given by Ying Chengyu.

This remedy cannot be said to be perfect, but it is definitely feasible.

"What else did Cheng Yu say?"
