Chapter 285 Printing and Papermaking, Has Been Leaked
Inside the Xianyang Imperial Palace.
Qin Shihuang was looking at the document in front of him, but his brows were slightly frowned.
"Lang'er's influence on Confucianism and Legalism is somewhat weaker."
"Although the head of Confucianism prefers him, Su'er's reputation in Confucianism is actually higher than him."
"Legalism is Gao'er's world."
Now that the great debate between Confucianism and Legalism has come to an end, many Confucian scholars have come to the fore.
Among the younger generation, Fusu and Gao had the best prestige.
Of course, although there are pushers behind both of them, it can also show that they still have some talents.
On the contrary, Zhao Lang, who he was most optimistic about before, didn't seem to have made any progress.
Not to mention Hu Hai, if he hasn't gone out to cause trouble these days, he has already performed well.
At this time, Zhao Gao, who was at the side, responded with a smile,
"The old slave congratulates His Majesty, and the young master Fusu has lived up to your expectations."
"The old slave heard that everyone in the market now knows that with such a son Su, if he becomes prime minister in the future, Daqin will not have to fight to build the Great Wall!"
Hearing this, Qin Shihuang's face changed slightly, and he said calmly,
"Well, it's very popular."
Zhao Gao responded again and again,
"Yeah yeah!"
"Young Master Gao has also won the support of many disciples of the Legal School."
Zhao Gao praised Young Master Gao again, and then said,
"It's Young Master Lang, who has been busy with Heming Academy and farm affairs recently."
When Qin Shihuang listened, he couldn't help but have a contrast in his heart.
Although Fusu and He Gao are making good progress, their horizons are somewhat narrow.
And only for their own benefit.
And Zhao Lang worked hard alone to build a school, and he didn't forget to give him the position of principal.
This vision and awareness, who is higher and who is lower, is clear at a glance.
At this time, Zhao Gao was still praising Su and Gao, but Qin Shihuang felt a little displeased.
"Why, Lang'er said a few words to you in front of you last night, and you held a grudge?"
When Zhao Gao heard this, his face turned pale with shock, he knelt down and said,
"Your Majesty! This old servant dare not!"
"I just think it's rare for young masters Fusu and Gao to make you feel at ease for a while, so I just praised a few more words. This old servant has absolutely no malice towards young master Lang!"
Only then did Qin Shihuang snort coldly, and said,
"I'm sorry you don't dare!"
Seeing Zhao Gao kneeling on the ground, Qin Shihuang couldn't help but hear Zhao Lang's words, Zhao Gao and Li Si are just two vicious dogs who surrender to the strong.
If there was such a day, would Fusu and Gao be able to hold them back?
Just as Qin Shihuang was thinking.
A servant came in and told,
"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister seeks an audience."
Qin Shihuang raised his eyes slightly,
"Let him in."
Now that the legalist debate is over, it is not surprising that the other party has come over.
Probably because of Gao Er, Confucianism has its own spokesperson, and Legalism will naturally not lag behind.
"I have seen His Majesty."
Soon Li Si appeared in the palace.
"Why did the prime minister enter the palace?"
Qin Shihuang looked at Li Si and asked directly.
Li Si said slowly,
"Your Majesty, I'm here for the Legalists."
Qin Shihuang was calm in his heart, he still knew his courtiers very well.
Moreover, he had already heard the report from the Black Ice Guard that the legalists had been preaching that the law is the teaching and the officials are the teachers.
If it was before. Maybe Qin Shihuang agreed.
But now, he had already been attracted by what Zhao Lang said, and he was attracted by Baijia.
Soon, Li Si said,
"Your Majesty, I have a request to accept a prince as a disciple."
The prince's apprenticeship must be approved by the emperor.
Qin Shihuang said in his heart that sure enough, the other party came for Gao'er.
He doesn't mind either, although he has long been optimistic about Zhao Lang, but if he wants a prince to mature, he must have a few whetstones!
Immediately said calmly,
"Okay, I promise you."
Li Si was taken aback for a moment, and said,
"Your Majesty, do you agree?"
"Well, when will I go back on my word?"
"Thank you, Your Majesty! I don't know when His Majesty will inform Young Master Lang of his identity, and I can prepare the ceremony as soon as possible."
Li Si said with a smile.
Qin Shihuang was startled when he heard Zhao Lang's name, and returned,
"Who are you talking about?!"
Liz back,
"Young Master Lang, Your Majesty, you just agreed, you can't go back on your word!"
Qin Shihuang heard clearly this time, but he was even more confused.
If it is Confucianism, he can still understand, Zhao Lang's performance in the first two times is still very good.
But Zhao Lang didn't go to the Legalist debate even once!
What are you doing for fun?
After Qin Shihuang thought about it, he looked at the earnest eyes, coughed pretendingly, and then said,
"Langer's matter, I am not so able to decide."
"If you want to accept him as a disciple, I'm afraid you still have to show some skills."
"Besides, you know Lang'er's appetite."
Who is Qin Shihuang?
How could he not find a chance to trick Li Si at this time.
I thought Li Si would hesitate, but I didn't expect the other party to say very simply,
"What Your Majesty said is that my Legalists are naturally sincere."
But this sincere attitude completely made Qin Shihuang a little bit confused.
The opponent was pushy before.
At this moment, a black ice guard came in and reported,
"Your Majesty, Young Master Lang has sent an urgent message, inviting you to the Zhuangzi to meet, saying that it is extremely urgent."
Qin Shihuang was stunned for a moment, it was the first time he saw Zhao Lang use a thousand urgency.
Without hesitation at the moment, he said,
"Getting ready to leave the palace, Prime Minister, you just happen to be with me."
Soon, the three left the palace.
All the way to Zhao Lang's village.
Sure enough, Zhao Lang was very anxious this time, and he hurriedly said to the three of them when they met,
"Father, come with me!"
Neither said hello to Zhao Gao nor Li Si.
It wasn't until we were in the room that we said eagerly,
"Father, Uncle Li, Uncle Zhao, it's bad, our printing and papermaking skills have been leaked!"
It's a lie that Zhao Lang is not in a hurry at this time.
Because he just saw the strange thing of the Mohist in the wooden house where the Mohist solved the puzzle!
It turned out to be a piece of paper with words printed on it!
What does this mean! This papermaking and printing technique have already been leaked!
He still counts on this thing to make money!
Hearing this, Qin Shihuang couldn't help saying,
"Lang'er, how do you know...what's going on?"
Zhao Lang recounted what happened just now.
Qin Shihuang frowned slightly. He didn't expect that the Mohists would still get the original paper after he had stepped up his guard.
Fortunately, it seems that the other party doesn't know how to do it yet, otherwise they wouldn't be able to solve the puzzle.
So comforted,
"Lang'er, don't worry too much, the Mo family hasn't mastered how to make it yet."
Zhao Lang nodded, of course he knew it too, but he was not worried about this matter,
"Father, what my son is worried about is that Daqin may have acquired these two technologies."
