Da Qin: Confucianism, Dharma and Taoism

Fusu leaned forward slightly, as if he couldn't wait to know what happened in Xiaoshengxianzhuang.

Ying Wei understood that Fusu was eager for Ying Zheng to change his mind and pay more attention to Confucianism.

Based on Ying Wei's understanding of Fusu, it is probably not that Fusu was afraid that he would not be able to inherit the empire, so he had such a plan.

Rather, Fusu himself was a true and pure supporter of Confucianism. He regarded Confucianism as a criterion and believed from the bottom of his heart that Qin should implement Confucianism.

To a certain extent, Fusu's idea was not wrong. For an empire that has been unified, even the Confucianism of this era is actually stronger than the pure Legalism.

It's just that Fusu wanted benevolence and righteousness, but he didn't understand his father.

If Fusu was smart, he could pretend to support the Legalist thought and change his mind after the death of the First Emperor. This is the most correct political path.

“Six Zero Three” However, Fusu was not such a person, otherwise, in the official history, he would not be so stupid as to commit suicide directly with an imperial edict.

This also shows Fusu’s inferiority complex, and Fusu clearly understood Ying Zheng’s distrust of him.

It was precisely because of the problem in the relationship between father and son that Fusu took the imperial edict seriously and thought that Ying Zheng really wanted to kill him.

Ying Wei could not hate Fusu. His personality and political demands might not be suitable for the Qin State at this time.

But Fusu did have the gentlemanly style advocated by Confucianism.

Especially compared to Ying Zheng, Fusu admired his uncle more. For a child who was grown up by his eyes and admired him, Ying Wei did not hate him.

It was just for the future of Qin State, and for the future of himself and his relatives, Ying Wei had to make up his mind to take the throne very early.

Yan'er saw that Ying Wei was going to talk to Fusu about some serious matters. The clever and well-behaved girl took Ying Yin Man's hand and said:

"Sister, my father wants to talk to my cousin. Why don't we go to my room to play."

Ying Yin Man has a gentle personality, which is completely different from the eccentric Yan'er. Although they were born on the same day, Ying Yin Man always listens to Yan'er.

Seeing Yan'er say this, Princess Yangzi said softly: "Okay, then my sister and I will go to the room to play."

Yan'er looked at Yue'er again and said: "Yue'er, you come with my sister."

Yue'er, who is still young, is at the age of liking to play. Seeing her sister invite her, she ran to Yan'er happily.

Yan'er then bowed to Ying Wei and Fusu and said, "Father, brother, I'm taking my two sisters out to play."

Ying Yin Man also bowed and said, "Uncle Wang, please forgive Yin Man for being rude."

Ying Wei saw Yan'er was obedient, well-behaved and sensible, and smiled softly, "Go, pay attention to safety."

Then he said to Ying Yin Man, "Your sister is the most naughty, Yin Man, you have a gentle personality, watch her."

Yan'er listened to Ying Wei's words.She stuck out her tongue mischievously and left with her two sisters.

After the two left, Fusu said with some envy: "Sister Yan is really cheerful."

What he envied was the father-daughter relationship between Yan'er and Ying Wei, and the warmth revealed in the interaction.

He was strictly educated in the palace since he was a child. Ying Zheng would only criticize him with a stern face and would not say intimate words between father and son.

Fusu dared not act like Yan'er and act naughty and coquettish to his father.

"Everyone has his own responsibilities and missions, and they have different childhoods."

"Fusu, you don't have to envy her. There are countless people who envy you more."

Ying Wei said slowly.

Fusu is the eldest son of the empire. Of course, countless people will envy his birth and his life.

Fusu bowed his head slightly and said: "Uncle Wang taught me that the lives of the people are difficult. I have also seen the lives of some people around Xianyang."

"Even the lives of the people around Xianyang are so difficult. You can imagine how people live in other places. Whenever I think of this, Fusu feels nostalgic."

"Those people will envy my life."

The boy of fifteen or sixteen is not very old, but he also cares about the world.

Ying Wei was even more regretful. No matter which dynasty Fusu was in, if he was the second-generation king, he would be a qualified king who would accumulate national strength and slowly reach the peak of the dynasty.

But he happened to be born in this era that least valued Confucianism. He was lucky to be born in the Qin royal family, but he was unlucky to be the son of Ying Zheng.

"You can tell me this in private, but don't tell your father."

Ying Wei advised him.

What Fusu said just now seemed to be sympathizing with the people, and people would praise him when they heard it.

But if Ying Zheng heard this, it would only make Ying Zheng disgusted.

Because this is simply saying that under your rule, Ying Zheng, the people live in hardship, and you are not a wise ruler at all.

For the First Emperor who unified the six kingdoms and completed the great cause of unification, he was conceited, how could he like such words?

Living in the Qin Palace, Fusu was not a completely simple and stupid child. He was awed in his heart and immediately understood Ying Wei's warning, and hurriedly said: "Thank you for the warning, uncle."

Seeing Fusu looking at him with admiration, Ying Wei was a little embarrassed, because he obviously wanted to steal his throne.

But in Ying Wei's view, this is also good for Fusu.

At least he would not kill this nephew, at most he would put him under house arrest, and let him live his life safely, which is better than his end in the official history.

"As for what happened in Xiaoshengxianzhuang, I have to tell you one thing. Those Confucian scholars don't like your father at all. They are full of sarcasm and ridicule."

Ying Wei's words made Fusu stunned. He hurriedly said: "How could it be? If so, why did the father confer Xunzi as the most holy teacher?"

He didn't understand why his father did this since Confucianism didn't like him. He didn't think his father would be patient or humble.

"This involves some of the empire's treatment of Confucianism. You'd better not ask too many questions about these issues. Think about the reasons yourself."

Ying Wei didn't explain much in this regard, just said so.

Fusu was thoughtful. He bowed and said, "Uncle Wang is right. I should think more about some things to understand the deep meaning of my father and uncle Wang."

After a pause, Fusu said, "My father is touring the world. Uncle Wang has returned to Xianyang. Fusu will also fully support Uncle Wang to handle the affairs of the empire."

Seeing Fusu say this, Ying Wei smiled and said, "It seems that the rumors in Xianyang have also reached your ears."

Fusu's face was stern, and he hurriedly said, "Uncle Wang, since you also know that it is a rumor, please don't believe it!"

Recently, it has been circulated in Xianyang that Fusu dislikes his uncle Wang very much and thinks that he is the eldest son of the empire and the master of the future empire.

Now that the First Emperor is not in Xianyang, he should be the regent, not the King of Yong.

When Fusu heard this rumor, he was extremely frightened. This is one of the reasons why he came to see Ying Wei, and also to explain and apologize.

The order to let Prince Yong serve as regent was issued by the First Emperor. If Fusu really did this, wouldn't he be against his father and Prince Yong, Ying Wei?

He is not so stupid. Someone wants him dead!

Who wants to harm him? .
