Chapter 65

Hu Hai returned to the military tent and unexpectedly found that Prime Minister Li Si was in the tent and was talking in a low voice with Meng Tian.

Seeing the second emperor coming in, Meng Tian and Li Si quickly presented the lord and ministers' tribute.

In the army, in order to establish the emperor's prestige, Hu Hai did not stop the two chief ministers, but waited for them to make some red tape before asking: "Why is Prime Minister Li here?"

Without waiting for Li Si's answer, Meng Tian said first: "The emperor personally entered the military camp and will personally fight in three days. There is a major event that I don't know very well. Only the old minister knew some clues back then. So I asked Prime Minister Li Si to come and discuss it."

Li Si nodded, and the wrinkles like a knife made him look even more serious. He said in a deep voice: "I have made the same choice as the candidates of the tribes lurking in the north, and I will wait for the emperor to decide. I happened to be invited by General Meng Tian and said that there was a major matter. I will come to see the emperor and do the official business by the way."

"What's the matter? So important?" Hu Hai looked at Meng Tian. There was nothing more important than personally exploring Zhou Wen, Wu Guang, contacting Sanchuan County, and the siege of Hangu Pass.

Meng Tian clasped his fists and said, "Your Majesty still remembers the elections that day. I once took out a token for Your Majesty to show you."

Hu Hai suddenly remembered that the material selection was interrupted that day. After Meng Tian took out the dark wooden token, Wang Ben changed color angrily. However, Hu Hai didn't care too much about the talent selection. Today, Meng Tian's old story was re-reported, and he remembered the resentful expression of Wang Ben that day.

"What is this tomb organization?" Hu Hai looked at Li Si with his eyes. Since Meng Tian invited him, he must be clear about this matter.

"Zhong!" After Li Si heard this, the wrinkles like a knife were shaking.

Meng Tian took out the black wooden token from his arms and handed it to Li Si.

Li Si took the token, looked carefully several times before sighing and saying, "The centipede insect will die but will not be stiff!" His words were exactly the same as what Wang Ben said that day.

Seeing that several important officials attached so much importance to this token, Hu Hai knew that it was of great importance, but looked at Li Si but didn't say anything. He knew that with Li Si's intelligence, he would definitely give him a satisfactory answer.

"If this tomb organization is said to be very related." Li Si sighed, as if he had returned to the past.

Li Si closed his eyes and calmed himself, then opened his eyes and said word by word: "Although Your Majesty was young, he should also know that the old emperor had once 'burned books and bursed scholars'."

He reiterated the incident of "burning books and burying scholars" back then.

Hu Hai couldn't help but think about the matter of burning books and burying scholars back then. It seemed that when the First Emperor and Li Si jointly decided on the plan to burn books and burying scholars back then, this trick was indeed too much.

In this case, except for the collection of the treasury of the Great Qin Palace, the rest of the books were destroyed in this incident. Why did the First Emperor do such a counterintuitive thing? Is it really a failure to seek immortality and take the anger of alchemy scholars and scholars?

Hu Hai hesitated for a moment and asked: "Why did the First Emperor burn books and bury scholars back then? I don't believe that the First Emperor took off his anger just because he failed to seek immortality. This matter now seems to be hidden!"

Li Si was silent for a while, sighed and said, "The First Emperor is wise and powerful, and unified the six kingdoms. I strongly agreed with the First Emperor's approach back then. I thought that since the world is unified and the cultural coins and other rules of the six kingdoms are different, I formulated a series of policies with the First Emperor, such as unified weights and measures, the same track, the same road, and the same characters. I invited all the cultural essences of the six kingdoms and the scholars of various countries to use for the Qin Dynasty. But this was a huge mistake."

Li Si told the story that he and the First Emperor did this matter together, and he still remembered it vividly.

It turned out that Emperor Qin Shihuang unified the world and wanted to do something great. He was ambitious and wanted to unify everything in the world. He integrated the coins of the six countries and made the coins of the outside and square coins that had been circulated for thousands of years since the Great Qin Dynasty, unified the weights and measures, and invited the world's past scholars to jointly formulate unified characters to replace the different languages ​​of the seven countries. He recruited various theories of the hundreds of schools of thought and wanted to be used by the Great Qin Dynasty.

At first, all this went very smoothly, and the world was thriving. However, the good times did not last long. The nobles of the six countries were unwilling to let the country be destroyed by the Qin Dynasty, and they had no strength to rebel against Qin. This small group of people who hated Qin and hated the First Emperor actually formed an organization that opposed Qin, called the "tom".

The Tomb Organization was originally just a thing caused by the delusions of the nobles of the six countries and did not have much strength. However, since a man who claimed to be an old tomb took over, the Tomb Organization underwent earth-shaking changes. Under it, two major branches of the Sword Tomb and the Dark Tomb were established, which were responsible for invading the court and assassinating the imperial officials respectively.

The First Emperor was so resolute and decisive, how could this anti-Qin organization be allowed to exist? The various schools of thought that surrendered and the world's assassins established the corresponding "Qin Soul" and confronted the tomb.

After many twists and turns, Emperor First Emperor found out that the tomb was no longer under the control of the nobles of the six countries, but gathered the elites of various schools of thought. Their ultimate goal was to control the First Emperor and then control the world.

The First Emperor was furious and wanted to declare war on the tomb, but his opponent was erratic. At the critical moment, Li Si helped the First Emperor. He made a plan for the First Emperor, pretending not to know the existence of the tomb, deliberately scolded the leader of the "Qin Soul" at that time, and disbanded the soul organization. Then he deliberately absorbed the people who were in the tomb and came to the First Emperor and entrusted them with important tasks.

Over time, the Tomb Organization was undoubtedly his. Most of the Confucian scholars entered the court one after another. In order to control the government in the court, these alchemy scholars and scholars even advised the First Emperor to go out to sea to find immortals and say something illogical. The First Emperor also followed the flow and inspected the thirty-six counties in the world under the name of seeking immortals in the East China Sea. It was not until Li Si and the First Emperor secretly fully grasped the list of the owners of the Tomb Organization that the First Emperor wanted to launch an attack.

At first, Li Si stopped the First Emperor's impulsive decision, but ordered people to plant melons in the greenhouse in the cold winter and then put them in a closed valley. Li Si deliberately informed all members of the valley's winter melons to all members and the First Emperor.

The First Emperor ordered them to go to the valley to appreciate the melons. The tomb organization thought that it had completely controlled the First Emperor, so it went into the valley without any precautions. They saw the melons on the bottom of the valley covered with snow, and were all attracted. At this moment, the army arranged by the First Emperor on the top of the mountain had long been lowered a large number of earth and stones, and buried all the thieves in the tomb organization alive in the valley.

Later, Emperor Shihuang believed that the reason for this tomb organization was that the various schools of thought were mixed and disturbed the people's audio-visual activities. So he began to collect folk books in large quantities, burn and destroy them in a concentrated manner, and only saved some of the classics in the Xianyang Palace. Finally, these classics were placed in the Taixue Pavilion to prevent their cultural concepts from disappearing.

After the incident of the Tomb Organization, the First Emperor's temperament changed drastically, and he was afraid that another group similar to the Tomb Organization would appear. So the First Emperor collected the iron of the world and cast twelve bronze men. He also established a harsh legal system, strictly prohibiting people from discussing the government and whispering. Violators would be at the least, abandon the market, and implicated the three tribes. Even the first emperor made excuses to kill the matter, and even the important members of the "Qin Soul" at that time.
