Daqin: When I return from sea, I will offer you a map of the world

Chapter 138 The First Emperor Thinks Zhao Si Is Not a Loyal Official!
"Whoosh!"

Between lightning and flint, accompanied by the sound of piercing through the air, a feathered arrow flew straight across Wang Li's head and nailed it to a tree as thick as the mouth of the bowl. Nearly a third of the arrow penetrated.

"Zhao Si!"

"Where are you shooting!"

Wang Li looked at the slightly swaying arrow tail and turned around.

"The shot was wrong..." Zhao Si smiled awkwardly.

"What's going on with you today?" Wang Li looked at Zhao Si strangely and came up to him, and walked around Zhao Si.

"Nine out of ten times you shot arrows today, you shouldn't..." Wang Li frowned.

Wang Li knew Zhao Si's archery skills, he was able to open a three-stone hard bow, basically he could hit wherever he pointed, nine times out of ten, but today he really couldn't hit no matter what he did.

"My heart is disturbed..." Zhao Si threw the bow and arrow to the ground, then looked up at the sky.

Inside the palace...

The first emperor was lying on the rocking chair. Now, it was the first emperor's lunch break.

It's just that after Zhao Si left, Emperor Shi Huang fell asleep slowly, and he was thinking about the strategy of strong stems and weak branches that Zhao Si said in his mind.

"The foundation of Daqin has never been the public clan, but the old Qin people!"

"Your Majesty, this is war!"

"The minister can only die for His Majesty to see..."

The first half of Zhao Si's high-spirited and high-spirited image formed a strong contrast with the second half of Zhao Si's expression of bitterness and resistance.

"It's quite honest..." Shi Huang smiled.

Thinking of Zhao Si, who was being chased away, with a bitter face like a concubine, although there was a little bit of offense, it still made Emperor Shi Huang couldn't help laughing.

In fact, Zhao Si is very self-aware.

It is a national policy to relocate the old nobles of the six countries, strengthen the cadres and weak branches, and centralize power. With Zhao Si's ability, it cannot be played.

Zhao Si's self-awareness is correct. With his current level, it's okay to be a speech officer, but it's still far from being a real official.

The first emperor never thought of handing over the burden to Zhao Si. In fact, this was just an evil taste of the first emperor.

Zhao Si likes to hide his clumsiness, and if he is a little at ease, he will naturally put away the edges and corners. The first emperor's original intention was to deliberately put three points of pressure on Zhao Si, so that Zhao Si could say what was in his heart.

The suggestion was made by Zhao Si, and Emperor Shihuang was also moved, so it is understandable for Zhao Si to try his best to fill in the details and ideas.

Zhao Si really opened up a new way of thinking and a new direction for the First Emperor, so much so that the First Emperor unexpectedly developed a three-point ambition at this moment.

The first emperor never attributed the achievements of destroying the six kingdoms to himself, nor did he ever think of denying the achievements of his ancestors and monopolizing the achievements.

The remaining martyrs of Fen VI were admitted by the first emperor himself.

He disdained to obliterate and deny the credit for occupying the ancestors, and he would never rest on the existing merits. It's just that the six kingdoms have been destroyed, and the opponents who can be faced by the first emperor are really lacklustre.

But it was Zhao Si, a young man in his early twenties, who aroused Shi Huang's interest in what he said.

People in the world believe that during the Warring States period, the frequent wars between various countries were a time of great contention.Zhao Si said that now is the world of great struggle.

Zhao Si said that now is the great change in China that has never happened in thousands of years.

"Call Li Si into the palace!"

The First Emperor got up from the reclining chair. In the midst of his lackluster daily work, there was a rare thing that revived him. The original calm mood of the First Emperor unexpectedly fluctuated.

That's right... Emperor Shi Huang had no intention of handing over this matter to Zhao Si from the very beginning.

Not enough status, not enough status, not enough power, not enough prestige, not enough energy.

Zhao Si is just a tool to save time for planning and preparation...

Originally, Emperor Shi Huang did it on purpose, wanting to hear what Zhao Si was thinking, but he did not expect that he was really pleasantly surprised.

……

Zhao Gao took the order, and Li Si was summoned to the palace within a short while.

"Move the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms to enter the customs?" Li Si groped for his short beard.

Li Si has a beautiful beard, but unfortunately, his beard is not very long, but it is very precious.

Whenever he fell into deep thought, it was Li Si's habit to stroke his precious beard.

"This...is a way." Li Si stroked his beard.

In fact, Li Si is not a serious old Qin person. Li Si's ancestral home is Shangcai of Chu State, but there is no job opportunity in Chu State, so he came to Xianyang all the way.

Seriously speaking, Li Si is a nobleman from the Chu Kingdom, so his ass should sit on the side of the nobles from the Six Kingdoms.

In fact, this is indeed the case. South Korea once sent a hydraulic engineer Zheng Guo into Qin to help Qin build the Zheng Guo Canal. In fact, it was to consume Qin's national power. Sincerely helping Qin, but with ulterior motives, the first emperor issued an order to expel guest officials from the six countries.

Because of this, Li Si wrote the famous book of expelling guests, speaking for the justice of the Six Kingdoms in Qin Keqing, the first emperor therefore withdrew the order of expelling guests, and Li Si was named a court captain because of this.

If you look at it at first glance, the entry of the old aristocrats from the six countries seems to be hostile to the nobles from the six countries.

But this is not the case, and today's Li Si has fully integrated into Daqin's political ecosystem.

In fact, after Li Si ascended the throne and the First Emperor ruled the world, it was Li Si who hit the old nobles of the six countries hardest.

There are not a few old nobles of the Six Kingdoms that Li Si tortured and killed, and more than a dozen old nobles of the Six Kingdoms were bombed by Li Si after the Great Qin ruled the world.

When the Yan was destroyed, Li Si also advised to slaughter all the nobles of the Yan Kingdom with more than [-] shi. Li Si personally carried out this matter and charged them one by one.

Li Si studied under Xunzi, but he really followed Confucianism to Law. How could he lack understanding of Shang Jun, a senior?

Many of Li Si's behaviors were imitating Shang Yang's, but the Qin Dynasty now encompasses the world, which is completely different from the Great Qin Dynasty that used to be a mere Guanzhong.

Li Si did not go out on his own path of innovation, he was taking action, but the efficiency was too slow.

But Li Si, just went in the wrong direction, not a fool.

When the first emperor spoke, Li Si was just a little surprised at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he became more and more able to understand the meaning.

It's a shift from walking past to letting them come here.

In the past, Li Si's idea was to train Qin officials, implement policies step by step, and push them from one place to another to gather power and strengthen centralization.

The idea of ​​​​moving the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms to enter the customs is to let them go to Guanzhong to accept the rule and accept the laws of Qin. Through the short vacuum period formed by the migration of the great nobles, the Qin Central Committee quickly gathered power.

And this does not conflict with Li Si's strategic deployment.

It doesn't mean that the current policy must be abandoned if the old nobles of the six countries are moved to the customs.

The two can be carried out at the same time. Qin laws must also be cultivated, and laws must also be popularized.

Li Si's national policy is slow and step-by-step. Although it is slow, it is solid. As long as there is enough time and enough Qin officials are trained, then sooner or later, the Great Qin will be able to be like Guanzhong.

But it's too slow...

The current governance of Guanzhong is the efforts of the six generations of Qin Jun.

What Li Si did was not something that could be accomplished in a generation.

And moving the old six countries to enter the customs can greatly shorten the time.

The original 100-200-year work will be done in more than ten years.

This is the bottom line policy!

This strategy is also an absolutely correct poisonous strategy!
Li Si was not dazzled by the prospect, he was the prime minister on the left, and he could see the risks at a glance.

A little carelessness will lead to the restoration of the Six Kingdoms!
This is a real military strategy!
The nobles of the Six Nations are not fools, so Li Si immediately thought of several ways to implement this strategy.

"Called into Guanzhong as a false official? No, the ones who will be relocated are the big nobles. They look down on the false officials here, and they will meet each other in the end!"

"It's expensive to move to another place first? No... the current situation, if one hair affects the whole body, the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms are not fools."

"Calling with righteousness? It doesn't work either..."

This strategy is very good, but Li Si couldn't think of how to make the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms obediently move their family to Guanzhong. Could it be possible to give them benefits?
Just kidding, letting them come is for their benefit, not for their benefit.

"Hiss! Your Majesty... I dare to ask Your Majesty, who proposed this strategy?" Li Si thought for a while, but couldn't think of a way to avoid the risk for a while.

"Why do you ask this question?" Shi Huang glanced at Li Si.

"Although this strategy is good, it is too dangerous... When I heard about this strategy for the first time, although I had an idea in my mind, I couldn't solve it for a while." Li Si said.

"From my point of view, although the monarchs and ministers of the Six Kingdoms are stupid and short-sighted, there is one thing that they love money and cherish their lives. This kind of thing where people are swords and I are fish is something that can make them fight to the death. " Li Si said.

"This strategy is from Zhao Si!" Shi Huang replied.

Li Si was slightly surprised, Zhao Si?
Minister Zhao Si?

Of course Li Si had an impression of Zhao Si, after all Zhao Si came back from the sea and brought back three kinds of new food.

It's just that Li Si didn't pay too much attention to Zhao Si. Even if Zhao Si was emotionally arguing with him today, Li Si didn't have too many fluctuations in his heart.

Only when Li Si heard that this strategy came from Zhao Si, Li Si's heart moved slightly.

Because in Li Si's view, no matter in terms of character, personality, or knowledge base, Zhao Si didn't seem to be the person who could come up with such a poisonous strategy of cutting the bottom of the pot and cutting off children and grandchildren.

This is a national policy, and it is also a poisonous policy!

It is the kind of vicious strategy that the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms would like to cut the proposal to death upon hearing it.

"According to what Zhao Si said, this is war, just like Qin's war of destroying the six kingdoms, even worse." Shi Huang calmly narrated.

Li Si's heart moved slightly.

This is war!
This sentence perfectly explained the contradiction in Li Si's heart.

What Li Si has been struggling with just now is how to reduce the influence and gather power at the same time, but he has neglected that this is a war that takes food from the mouth of a tiger and does not tolerate the slightest compromise.

This is something that can only be accomplished if you have to show your sword and gun, and do it with real swords and guns.

No one would be willing to hand over their wealth, power, and land to others.

Li Si may not be unable to figure out the core of it, if he is given a day or two, he will definitely be able to figure it out, but this does not prevent him from feeling the joy of receiving these words.

This is war!
This is the essence of the Qiangui Order. Li Si keenly realized that not only the Qiangui Order, but everything he had done before, whether it was promoting the Qin law or strengthening the centralization of power, was essentially a war without soldiers and horses.

It's just that Li Si's actions were too slow in the past, so there wasn't much gunpowder, and there wasn't too much blood and rain. Everyone played games in a relatively peaceful environment.

Once the Qiangui Order is implemented, it will put all the contradictions in the open, and do a real fight.

The stakes are high!

A little carelessness is the danger of the Huo country, and even he himself is very likely to be martyred.

But the income is also very high. As long as the Qiangui Order is successful, Li Si can guarantee that in his lifetime, he will be able to implement the laws of Qin to the localities and rule the country like it is in the middle of the country.

Shi Huangdi is a lunatic full of adventurous genes.

That's why he desperately chose to take a brand new path after reunification.

As the most powerful arm of the First Emperor, Li Si also possessed a crazy risk factor.

"Your Majesty! This strategy is feasible!"

Li Si looked at the First Emperor with burning eyes!

Just kidding, this kind of temptation is too much for Li Si!
In his lifetime, if he could spread the laws of Qin to the world and make the world rule like Guanzhong, then Li Si's achievement would surpass that of any courtier in the past and present.

Shang Yang's reform is nothing more than a change in the pass!

He Li Si, if he can rule a country!
Then he is the god of Legalism!It is the acme of human minister!

This kind of temptation was too great for Li Si, so big that Li Si didn't care about his own danger at all.

For Li Si, if there is a chance to accomplish this kind of goal, then death doesn't matter.

Reformers have never lacked a heart of martyrdom.

In history, the reason why Li Si chose Hu Hai was not necessarily for power.

How could he accept the restoration of Confucianism and the revival of feudalism?How could he be willing to accept that his decades of hard work would be ruined?Compared with these, life and power are the most irrelevant.

"It's feasible? What if Zhao Si is the main one?" Shi Huang smiled.

"Servant Zhao can't do it." Li Si shook his head calmly.

"Then who should I use?"

"Minister!" Li Si said firmly with sharp eyes.

"In the world, only ministers can do it, dare to do it, and can do it!"

At this moment, Li Si seems to have regained the vigor and vigor he had when he wrote the letter of remonstrance and expelling guests.

The first emperor was noncommittal.

"No hurry... Zhao Si will bring the first volume in three days."

"If you want to do this, don't be in a hurry..."

Zhao Si is a kid, so he has to force him.

The so-called cherishing one's body?fear death?The First Emperor never believed it.

A lunatic who can travel thousands of miles and return to Qin after a narrow escape, is he afraid of death?

Emperor Shi Huang didn't believe it...

He could clearly feel that Zhao Si always seemed to be hiding something, subconsciously alienating everyone.

It's just that this insignificant estrangement will always be covered up by Zhao Si's harmless and approachable appearance.

This faceless little guy...

Not one who is afraid of death.

The first emperor believed in his own vision...

It was as if he could feel Zhao Si's closeness and respect for him.

But he has never found the unwavering loyalty that should belong to his subordinates in Zhao Si.

(No, let me ask you, what are the aftereffects of Eryang? I have dizziness and nausea every day, very mild, very short-lived, tinnitus, and always lack of energy. Is this normal? How long will it take to subside? Is there any relief? No way.)
