my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 211 Zhao Gao VS Xiang Yu
I can really thank you ha!
Hu Hai cared about Zhao Ying to the extreme, but Shi Huangdi agreed with him, and sincerely helped him.

"Xiang Yu's son is brave and has ulterior motives. Apart from Ying'er, I'm afraid no one can restrain him. It's really wrong to stay by your side..."

Hu Hai: ...

Although the words were a bit heartbreaking, he also knew that it was really inappropriate for a person like Xiang Yu to stay by his side. If one day he had bad thoughts, he would have no place to regret it.

He could only forcefully agree with him with a smile, and then felt that in front of his own Aunt, if this was the case, it seemed a bit incompatible with his status as an uncle, so he casually cared about Zhao Ying.

"Ying'er, you have to be careful..."

Zhao Ying waved his hand with a smile.

"Uncle Eighteen, don't worry, this kind of character can't make any tricks in my hands, and can be killed with a backhand..."

Hu Hai: ...

do not want to talk!

Farewell!

With the excuse that he still needs to go out to patrol, Hu Hai left without looking back.

He hadn't gone out yet, when he heard behind him that A Weng and Zhao Ying had shifted the topic from himself to Xiang Yu.

"Although Xiang Yu is talented, your safety is the most important thing. If you can use it for yourself, it is a good thing. It will be a big help for you in the future. If you can't, just clean it up... "

Then I heard Zhao Ying's laughing voice.

"Okay, don't worry, Elder Father, with me watching, he can't make any tricks..."

Hu Hai couldn't help speeding up his pace a little.

……

At noon, after having lunch with the First Emperor, Zhao Ying got up straight away and left the palace. In addition to the title of champion general and governor of Hexi County, he was also in charge of the post of Jiangshan Sheji Secretary.

It's been three days since I came back, it would be a shame not to go and have a look.

The front hall of Abang Palace, Jiangshan Sheji Division.

It hasn't been seen for a few months, and the scale here has become a bit bigger than before I left.In addition to the huge sand table-making hall in the middle, dozens of rooms on both sides have been tidied up.

For the Ministry of Jiangshan Sheji to store materials and files.

At this time, a huge sand table was placed in the center of the main hall, and the adjustment of the part about the Hexi Corridor was almost completed.

Coordinating envoy Wei Weiyang is standing aside with the left and right supervisors, discussing with a group of map-making officials and making final adjustments.

"Here, and here, it needs to be raised a little bit..."

Everyone stared eagerly at the Jiangshan Sheji map in front of them. The Hexi Corridor they are playing with now was taken down by their immediate superiors.

Proud to all!

Because of being too involved, when Zhao Ying approached, someone noticed Zhao Ying's arrival, and hurriedly turned around to salute.

"Meet the grandson of the emperor—"

Seeing him coming, Wei Weiyang could not help but smile like a flower and raised her slender hands covered with clay.

"Your Highness, you came just in time. Come and see, is there anything wrong with this Hexi Corridor?"

The little girl's complexion was rosy, her eyes sparkled, her skin became more delicate and lustrous, and even her figure became a bit plump.

Zhao Ying's eyes lit up when he saw it.

"it is good--"

Zhao Ying smiled and saluted everyone, then stood beside Wei Weiyang very naturally, admiring everyone's masterpieces during this time.

"Not bad! It's very delicately done, everyone has a heart-"

Zhao Ying carefully looked at the map of Jiangshan Sheji in front of him, his face was full of admiration.

Regarding this part of the Hexi Corridor, although it is not to be restored one by one, the key points are already very close to the actual situation.

The results of my months of hard work have been recognized by my boss, and everyone can't help showing a happy smile on their faces.

"Don't dare, it's all up to His Highness to open up the territory and take Hexi, otherwise, I don't know how long it will take to complete this goal..."

Zuo Jian Cheng Tu Yu bowed his hands to Zhao Ying sincerely.

Although the Jiangshan Sheji Map of the Hexi Corridor has been continuously produced and adjusted in the early morning, the progress has been slow. Many details were completed after Zhao Ying took the Hexi Corridor.

As a large amount of more detailed and specific materials were sent back to Xianyang, their production progress was considered to be on the fast track.

Zhao Ying smiled and waved his hands.

"You don't need to be humble, I have seen all your hard work and achievements, and I will ask the court for your credit later - how about this, I, the chief official, will also express that everyone will be rewarded with a month's salary... "

As soon as Zhao Ying said this, everyone couldn't help being overjoyed.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for the reward—"

At this time, hearing the movement, the left and right Shangshu Chunyuyue and Tian Jian who were buried in their work also came out of their office.

"I have seen His Royal Highness, the eldest grandson—"

"You two don't need to be polite—"

Zhao Ying took two quick steps and helped up the two old gentlemen himself.

There were too many people in the hall, it was not a place for conversation, Zhao Ying said some polite words to the two old gentlemen, and then invited the two old gentlemen and Miss Wei Weiyang to his office.

Although he has been away for a while, his office is still very tidy, and it should be taken care of daily.

The Ministry of Rites is responsible for policy presentations, collection of folk customs, and promotion of casting the soul of the army.

Although Zhao Ying got a general understanding of part of the situation through the news from Tianxiang Pavilion, but for more detailed information, he still needs to consult these two respected old gentlemen.

"Your Highness, the land of the six kingdoms in Shandong, especially the land in the south of the Yangtze River, is full of resistance. Many heads of Guizhou don't take policy propaganda seriously, and are even quite resistant..."

Having said that, Chunyu Yue sighed.

"The old man studied the news in depth and found that it's not just the local people's problem, it's our policy itself that has a problem..."

Seeing that Zhao Ying's face was normal, with encouragement in his eyes, Chunyu Yue smiled wryly.

"Now the old man understands His Highness's good intentions in setting up the storyteller and the wind collector - many policies, the old man did not notice any inappropriateness in the past, but now as the storyteller and the wind collector go deep into the people, I understand more and more. After receiving the information, the old man suddenly realized that many of his thoughts in the past were a bit taken for granted..."

"For example, the currency policy. Although the imperial court ordered to unify the currency, and strictly stipulated the styles, specifications and materials of coins, many local people not only did not benefit from it, but suffered from it..."

"The original local coins are not allowed to be used, but many local people cannot fully exchange their own family coins from the government—many people have fallen into extreme poverty because of this..."

Zhao Ying couldn't help feeling heavy when he heard this.

Although the unified currency is indeed beneficial to people's transactions, there are policies at the top and countermeasures at the bottom. Many policies that seem to have no problems will cause problems once they are implemented at the local level.

For example, the question Chunyu Yue mentioned just now.

After the currency is unified, what should we do with the original currency in the hands of the people? It can’t be said to be invalid, so it doesn’t need to wait for Chen Sheng and Wu Guang to rebel, and the local people will have to fry the pot.

No one can just sit back and watch the wealth accumulated by their ancestors for generations disappear into nothing in one day.

The imperial court also knew this truth, and allowed the people to exchange their own currency for Qin Banliang at a certain ratio.But the problem is that Daqin is different from the six kingdoms of Shandong. The nobles and wealthy merchants do not have the right to mint coins, and the right to mint coins belongs to the court.

The court's minting speed alone cannot meet the actual exchange and circulation needs.

As a result, the common people in many places have returned to the original stage of bartering, while some local illegal subordinates and noble merchants took the opportunity to recycle old money at a low price, and then exchanged it with the government.

Under the double-layer exploitation, many families that could barely maintain themselves went bankrupt...

After policies like this are implemented, deviations and problems of one kind or another will occur.In fact, these similar problems have appeared in other dynasties.

But the problem is that these policies hurt the interests of too many people.

It turned out that everyone happily minted coins together and exploited the common people. As a result, you, Qin Shihuang, took back our coinage rights with a wave of your hand...

Most of the means of production are under official control, and the commodity economy has fallen into a semi-stagnation.

The land is not allowed to be bought and sold, the carriages and horses are not up to standard, and even offering sacrifices to ghosts and gods is illegal. In short, under the conflicts of the local nobles and powerful tyrants, the common people did not enjoy the seemingly long-term policy of the Great Qin Dynasty. How much welfare, but fell into a more miserable distress.

To make matters worse, Daqin's harsh punishment system.

If you make a slight mistake, it will be issued directly.The south is different from the north, the weather is rainy, if you serve a corvee, if you encounter some bad weather and catch up with a few heavy rains, you will lose your time, and you will be killed if you miss your time!

Inexplicably, the head is gone!

It was impossible not to harbor resentment.

Under such circumstances, simply preaching the policy has very little effect.

The information he got from Chunyuyue and Tianjian made Zhao Ying feel very heavy. Now Daqin's actual control power is still in Guanzhong, and the further away from Guanzhong, the lower the control power.

Under the collusion of local subordinate officials and local nobles, many policies were not acclimatized.

Wanting to change doesn't happen overnight.

Originally, he wanted to have an in-depth exchange with Miss Wei Weiyang alone, but after listening to Chunyu Yue and Tianjian's report, Zhao Ying lost his mood instantly.

He suddenly understood why Xiang Yu and Xiang Liang's nephew and uncle had been preparing secretly in Kuaiji County for so long in the previous life, and they were all safe and sound.

But in this case, there was nothing he could do for the time being.

The only thing I can do is to continue to maintain the strong deterrence of Daqin, and then try my best to bring those familiar strongmen in the future generations under my command.

Watch for yourself!

Then, draw it slowly.

He believed that if the first emperor could live a few more years, Daqin would not be messed up by the idiots Zhao Gao and Hu Hai, and if Daqin was given more than ten years to recuperate, these series of problems would become problems of development and disappear.

But history has no ifs.

Coming out of the Jiangshan Sheji Division, Zhao Ying took Xiang Yu to the recruit camp again, but in fact it can no longer be called the recruit camp, it should be called the guard camp.

More than 200 legitimate sons of Yuezhi nobles are currently stationed here temporarily.

Seeing Zhao Ying coming over, they thought that Zhao Ying was going to take him to Xianyang City to have fun, and everyone was quite excited.result.Zhao Ying came to check the progress of "Forging the Soul of the Army".

Everyone was dumbfounded for a moment.

In the past few days, where have you learned this?

Zhao Ying frowned slightly and looked at Meng Yu.

Meng Yu's scalp tightened immediately, and he explained in a low voice.

"General Qi, most of these people don't understand Qin language, and they are newcomers—so, the general thought that he could let them get acquainted with the situation here..."

Only then did Zhao Ying's face look a little better.

"Learning "Forging the Soul of the Army" is the most important thing, and there is no delay..."

Whether you can forcibly brainwash it is one thing, but whether you can wash it or not is another.

In short, if you want to stay in Xianyang, you must learn "Casting the Soul of the Army" first!
This is a matter of principle.

Meng Yu didn't dare to say more, and repeatedly said yes.

"Tomorrow, I will arrange a group of Confucian scholars to come over and teach them. You must cooperate well..."

"promise!"

It wasn't until Zhao Ying walked far away from the guard camp that Meng Yu secretly wiped the cold sweat off his forehead, stood up, and strode back to the camp.

"Everyone gathers and learns "Forging the Soul of the Army"—"

Although they were reluctant, they also knew that this was a task assigned by the terrible grandson of the emperor, and they didn't dare to complain, so they could only pinch their noses and force themselves to memorize it.

It's time to learn the words of Qin people.

……

"In the past few days, prepare well, take part in the martial arts exam in a few days, and come back with a champion..."

Zhao Ying casually tossed the reins to Xiang Yu who was following behind, and ordered in a faint voice.

Xiang Yu: ...

"Don't think that you are superior in force, you must know that there is a sky beyond the sky, and there are people beyond the human—"

Seeing Xiang Yu's indifferent face, Zhao Ying casually reminded him, then took out a world map from his arms, and threw it out with shaking hands.

"A man, you can't be like a frog in a well, you should look at the world—this map, after you go back, take a good look at it, and then tell me what you think..."

After speaking, Zhao Ying turned around and left.

Xiang Yu: ...

That's fine with the Jiji Lang, but now he still asks me, Xiang Yu, to lead the horse to fall!
I'm really aggrieved, suddenly I saw a middle-aged man wearing a short shirt with a white face, a beardless face, a handsome appearance, and a bit of a femininity, holding a horsewhip, walking unhurriedly from the side with a blank face Come.

Immediately waved.

"You—come here, and send the horse over to the young master so that he can take care of him!"

Zhao Gao:! ! ! ! ! !

It's fine for that bastard Zhao Ying to bully me, who the hell are you, a mere little bastard who is leading a horse and kicking, dare to order me!

He glanced at him with a cold face, turned his head and walked away, as if he had never heard of it.

Xiang Yu:! ! ! ! ! !

This is Huluo Pingyang being bullied by dogs. When he comes to the eldest son's house, even a mere groom who raises horses dares to ignore him. It's really unreasonable!
Without even thinking about it, as soon as he threw the reins, he wanted to rush forward to teach Zhao Gao a lesson.

Zhao Gao didn't even think about it, he shook his hand and whipped the horsewhip.

A new boy also came to humiliate himself!

How could Xiang Yu have thought that even the groom in this house dared to do something to him, if he was not paying attention, he was almost whipped in the face by Zhao Gao.
