Li Jue was outside the door and was shocked when he heard this.

He quickly asked for a meeting.

After entering, Ying Zheng had stopped and said nothing. The venue was in a mess. Zhao Gao and Li Si were both standing, with more than a dozen people kneeling on the ground.

These people are all local officials, and they are all trembling.

They came to plead for the county magistrate. Without the county magistrate, many orders could not be implemented, and even more so that things could not be made progress.

After Li Jue came in, he ignored these people directly.

After bowing Ying Zheng with his fists, he said, "I heard that Your Majesty is angry, but I don't know where Your Majesty's anger comes from?"

Ying Zheng said: "I am angry that he will not fight. The Confucians actually gave me a look and told them to write sacrificial texts and refused to do so. But they wrote essays one after another."

Li Jue said again: "If this is the case, Your Majesty should invite them to come, explain them with emotion and move them with reason, and they should change their minds."

When talking about this, Ying Zheng was just angry.

Don't want to say more.

Zhao Gao explained: "The Grandpa Chang doesn't know that Confucians are stones in the pit, smelly and hard. When Tongwu Hou asked them to come, they rolled around and organized the people to obstruct them."

Li Jue frowned and said, "I dare to ask Lord Zhao, what to do?"

Zhao Gao said: "According to Your Majesty's wishes, everyone will be arrested. Since they refuse to come, they will not be used."

The kneeling official begged again.

Li Jue said: "This is a treatment of symptoms but not the root cause. After all, they are knowledgeable people. They think we are different from them, so they are in conflict. But if you don't ask the reason and just arrest them, what is the difference between them and Jie and Zhou?"

When Zhao Gao heard this, he was immediately happy, but pretended to be angry, pointed at Li Jue, and shouted: "Li Jue, you are arrogant, you dare to compare Your Majesty to Jie and Zhou. You are a bastard. If you commit the following crime, you should die."

Ying Zheng's face was not good either.

Just as he was about to get angry, Li Jue said, "Your Majesty is not Jie and Zhou, because Your Majesty has achieved the Three Emperors and Five Emperors, and it is not something that those emperors can compare with each other."

"And I say this, I just hope that Your Majesty will not listen to slander and act against his own people indiscriminately. They are all His Majesty's people, and His Majesty loves the people as much as his son, how can he treat his son so rudely?"

Zhao Gao was so angry that he wanted to speak but stopped, but he was unable to refute.

Ying Zheng was also half angry. After all, what Li Jue said made sense and flattered him very comfortable.

He said, "Then what do you think I should do?"

Li Jue said: "Your Majesty has nothing to do. This is your Majesty's rule. Of course, there are county magistrates, county magistrates, township magistrates and pavilion chiefs to deal with it."

"Your Majesty is already busy with all his life, so how can you be distracted by these things? After all, Your Majesty wants to become an immortal and live forever."

When it comes to becoming an immortal, Ying Zheng was excited.

If you think about it carefully, it seems to make sense.

He is about to become an immortal, and he has raised so many people, how can he let everything do by himself?

Zhao Gao said from the side: "Li Jue, are you pleading for the county magistrate? Do you know that he is not doing his job well, and His Majesty has already jailed him."

Li Jue said: "Mr. Zhao, please don't add any more to the fire. Do you have to bother Your Majesty with this little matter? Let the county magistrate go back and invite someone. If you still cannot invite someone over at that time, it will not be too late to ask for a crime."

Zhao Gao sneered and wanted to mock him.

Ying Zheng said: "Li Aiqing, are you confident that the county magistrate can do this well? I have decided to choose an auspicious day to climb Mount Tai. This tribute cannot be delayed."

Li Jue said: "Your Majesty asked Confucianism to write a tribute, which is to give them face. If they can't write it, the little minister is willing to replace him."

Everyone looked suspicious, and Zhao Gao also planned to mock him.

Li Jue continued: "Your Majesty has been reluctant to let Xiaoxia do it before, because Xiaoxia is the executioner and feels it is inappropriate."

"But, does Your Majesty know that I am the chief of the great ministers, who is on horseback, represents the military, holds the Longquan sword, and dismounts the horse to supervise the ministers. As for my other identity, I am still a disciple of a foreigner, and a master of calligraphy who is famous all over the world, even Kong Jie's calligraphy attainments are not as good as my ministers!"

Ying Zheng's eyes lit up, and it seemed to make sense.

Zhao Gao was very anxious. He didn't want Li Jue to have this opportunity to show off.

After writing a sacrificial text, it will be famous for thousands of history, and it will make Ying Zheng remember that the future will surely rise.

He quickly said, "Your Majesty, you must not. Li Jue is a great general and a military general, which is inconsistent. Secondly, he was an executioner before, and was plagued by sins, so he was even more unsuitable for writing articles. After all, it was written for the gods."

Li Jue smiled and said, "Mr. Zhao, the name is a gatehouse and a book is a house. I followed the world's masters and read poetry and books well. My calligraphy is even better than the Qin Dynasty. Since it is written for the gods, wouldn't it be more suitable for me!?"

Zhao Gao was anxious, but still couldn't accept it, making Li Jue famous for thousands of history.

but.

Before he could speak, Li Jue interrupted him and said, "Your Majesty, if you really offend the gods because of the identity of the executioner in the past, why not be as fast and bathe at that time, cleanse your anger and write for Your Majesty?"

Zhao Gao hurriedly stopped him.

Ying Zheng waved his hand and said, "That's it."

Li Jue said again: "Your Majesty, in fact, letting me write a sacrifice is a helpless act, but it is all right. If the Confucian giants are willing to come forward, it would be the best, after all, they represent the face of many scholars."

Ying Zheng nodded, but this was actually his consideration.

Li Jue continued: "If the county magistrate cannot persuade them successfully, then the little minister is the backup plan. If the persuasion can be successful, the little minister is willing to give them this opportunity."

Ying Zheng said: "You are really my loyal minister. It's very good, just do what you said. Also, you and Junjun Governor Liu will persuade those stubborn Confucians."

Li Jue clasped his fists and said, "Don't worry, your Majesty, I will fulfill my mission."

It was at this moment.

The sound of tiger roaring and dragon roaring came from the mountains, and then the sound of tapping came soon.

It was Ren Xiao, the commander of the Xuanjia Army, who came. He pushed the gold and jade and knelt down and said, "Your Majesty, a soldier found a kilin in the forest. The kilin looked like a deer but not a deer, a horse but not a horse, a tiger but not a tiger, a dragon but not a dragon, very strange."

"And the Qilin was not hurt when he saw the Xuanjia Army. Instead, he jumped to avoid it, teased the Xuanjia Army for a while, and then left."

When Ying Zheng heard this, his eyes straightened, he stood up and said excitedly: "That's great, God will live up to the hard work, Qilin is finally willing to come out to see me."

"Tell the soldiers to increase the search and must find the Qilin nest. I will see the Qilin with my own eyes."

Ren Xiao took the order and retreated.

All the ministers were surprised.

At this time, Li Jue bowed his fists and said, "Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, this is a blessing."

"And Your Majesty has made a decision to forgive all the people and give Confucianism a chance to start over. If you are so forgiving others, Qilin will appear immediately, and you must be moved by Your Majesty's sincerity."

After saying this, Ying Zheng laughed happily, and someone gave Li Jue a hundred jars of fine wine, plus a thousand gold.

After Li Jue thanked him, he left.

Zhao Gao was by his side, and his teeth were itchy when he heard it.

Li Jue naturally followed Liu Junjun to Confucius Temple and persuaded Kong Jie and others.

Zhao Gao returned to his residence.

Bodhidharma immediately appeared and said in anticipation: "Mr. Zhao, did Your Majesty the Emperor agree to let me replace Confucianism and recite scriptures and pray on Mount Tai!?"

Zhao Gao said: "I originally agreed, but Li Jue came out and he made a good thing."

Bodhidharma was shocked and quickly asked what had happened.

Zhao Gao told him in a singular way, and at the same time he added fuel to the fire, he said that when Li Jue was there, he would never let Buddhism bloom in the Great Qin.

He sighed and said, "Master, it's not that I don't help you, but that you are not lucky enough to encounter such a roadblock."

Bodhidharma was so angry that he said, "If my Buddhism is ruined, even if it is a roadblock, he will give way."

Zhao Gao said: "That won't work. You can't beat him, and he is a high-ranking official. If you kill him, you will also cause trouble."

When I saw Bodhidharma, I was silent and thought Bodhidharma wanted to retreat.

He quickly said, "But there is no way. As long as he makes a mistake and then kills him, it will be natural."

"There is another point, that is, if we find Qilin one step earlier than him, our great contribution will be forgotten by His Majesty."

Bodhidharma said: "Actually, I have been searching in Mount Tai these days, and I have not found any traces of the Qilin."

"This may be fake."

Zhao Gao said the soldier discovered Qilin, and Bodhidharma was shocked, "Is this actually the case? Could it be that I am wrong?"

After a moment of silence, he said, "Since that's the case, I will go into the mountain to look for it again. Even if I turn Mount Tai over, I will find the Qilin."

Confucius Temple.

At this time, he was surrounded by soldiers, and a group of people in the temple were tied up in their own cocoons. The leader was Mr. Kong Jie.

When Liu Junzhu and Li Jue arrived, many people around him were talking. When the people saw Li Jue and others, they all pointed and hated him to the core.

Li Jue directly ignored the people who were used, and no matter how many people said they were useless.

As long as he makes the Confucians bow their heads, they will beautify them at that time.

Push the door and enter.

Li Jue saw Kong Jie and others sitting quietly in Confucius Temple, and the soldiers were all outside the door. When they saw Li Jue and Liu Junzhu returned, they did not change their expressions.

When Junjun Liu saw that the bowls and chopsticks in front of Kong Jie and others had not moved, he said bitterly: "My master, why are you doing this? You have been on a hunger strike for three days and three nights, so eat some."
