Chapter 547 The grown-up little child slave

The forty-fourth year of the First Emperor...

Another new year has arrived...

It is the second year of the implementation of the Qin Five-Year Plan.

As winter turns to spring, flowers and green grass grow freely...

"Young Master... Come down quickly... Young Master..."

In the palace, a group of palace people were running around in the corridor, stretching out their hands and looking up at the sky, full of panic.

On the eaves, a little child slave rides Amber, raising the big kite in his hand high...

"Fly..." the little child slave shouted, and Amber jumped down.

The palace people hurriedly rushed to greet...

It just so happened that this boy inherited the physical fitness of Zhao Si, with a rough skin and thick flesh. Although Yu Ji and the First Emperor would usually learn a lesson from him, in fact he could not break his defense at all.

Firstly, the two have a very deep relationship, and secondly, because amber is indeed auspicious.

The little child slave made a quick decision, looked at the fallen Amber and called for help.

Um...yes, Xiao Zhinu accepted Amber as his godmother when Xiao Zhinu turned one year old.

Grandpa Fusu and great-grandfather Shi Huang stood a little further apart. The smile on Grandpa Fusu's face was a little helpless, but great-grandfather's smile was still so friendly.

Sure enough, Yu Ji, who was still watching, immediately ran over, picked up the little child slave from the ground, and looked at Zhao Si angrily: "How can you beat a child like this?"

"Do you think Gu is as brainless as Hu Hu?" Zhao Si raised his eyebrows and threw the little child slave to the ground, then kicked him three meters away.

"I've been busy with government affairs lately, so it seems I've neglected to discipline you." Zhao Si brought Xiao Zhinu in front of him with an evil look on his face.

"That's right, how can anyone beat a child like this? People just hit me with a bamboo stick and it's fine. My father just gave me a bastard... Mom, let me tell you, my father beat me with his own tricks... …”

Looking at the panicked palace servants, the little child slave showed a proud smile.

Ok?
The little child slave blinked his eyes, as if he realized something. He turned around and saw that the back of his neck was being grasped by his father. Not far behind his father, he saw his mother using angry words. Looking at himself.

Before he finished speaking, Amber had already been kicked far away by Zhao Si. He stuck out his butt and buried his head in his two paws, looking like he was giving in.

Looking at his father again, he also forced a smile on his face, but it was a bit fake.

The little guy is smart and has learned to act very early. As soon as he is beaten, he will show his attitude of admitting his mistakes. If Zhao Si didn't accidentally discover this later, I'm afraid this kid doesn't know how long he will continue to act.

"Godmother, help me!"

The little child slave immediately lay on the ground and groaned, looking like he was seriously injured.

The little guy has been loved by millions since he was born, and he is naturally smart. Although he is not bad in nature, he is really naughty.

"It's none of my business, it was my godmother who took me up there!" Xiao Zhimu immediately blamed the blame on Amber.

After that... Amber fell to the ground, but the little child slave did not fall to the ground, but hung in the air.

Of course, this dry marriage was not very formal, and there was no verbal ceremony, but it had to be said that Amber did spend more time with Xiao Zhinu than Zhao Si.

Not to mention Yu Ji, even the smiles on the faces of Fusu and the First Emperor disappeared.

He also hit the palms of his hands with a board. Even if the peach board was broken, this little thing wouldn't be able to break his defense...

Fortunately, Zhao Si, the father, discovered the problem in time and began to use personal force. Only then did the little child slave truly understand what a father's love is like, so much so that the child slave was very afraid of Zhao Si recently.

Because Zhao Si's attack really breaks the defense... Of course, he will inevitably file a complaint if he catches the opportunity.

Zhao Si's kick could not be said to be that of a child. An adult would probably not be able to stand up if he was hit.

But who made the little child slave so gifted? However, it flew a few meters away at once, and the visual effect seemed a bit exaggerated. The First Emperor also quickened his pace and came over, wanting to see if his great-great-grandson was in any serious condition.

"Don't let this kid fool you...he is not stupid..." Zhao Si shook his head.

"This kid has a good physique. Although he is young, his muscles and bones are strong. Not to mention this kick, even if he just jumped off the eaves, it would not be a big deal... Otherwise, why do you think this kid dares to play like this? He is not stupid, he is just teasing these palace people." Zhao Si shook his head and spoke helplessly.

When the little child slave heard this, his expression suddenly froze while he was performing. No one else, but his father's words hit the target.

How could a young slave be so smart by nature that he could do something dangerous to his own life?
He loves to play, but he doesn’t love to play so much that he has no brains.

Children are children after all. Although they are talented in acting, the First Emperor still saw the clues. The First Emperor looked at the childish slave with a half-smile, touched his beard and said with a smile: "In this way, the one who was beaten earlier Are you feeling lighter?"

"If the eldest father said that a few hits with a bamboo board would be considered a beating, it would be worse than a mosquito bite to this kid." Zhao Si spread his hands.

After the words fell and the First Emperor had not spoken, the expression of his biological mother Yu Ji had already changed. When she lifted the little child slave's ears, the expression in her eyes began to change.

"Mother! Mother! Listen to my explanation..."

Zhao Si laughed loudly when he saw this, and Yu Ji asked the little slave to teach him a lesson because of being deceived.

However, Zhao Si, the First Emperor, and Fusu, the three top decision-makers of the Qin Dynasty, sat down in the pavilion in the palace with smiles.

"Wei's envoy has arrived, how do you plan to respond?" The First Emperor looked at Zhao Si and asked.

At present, Zhao Si is responsible for all diplomacy and military affairs of the Qin State, and Fusu is responsible for all daily government affairs. As for the First Emperor, he has been completely liberated. Except for some general control, the First Emperor rarely interferes in political affairs. Just provide a seal...

Now we can really say that the First Emperor was an out-and-out stamped emperor.

Zhao Si handed over the folding paper and stamped it, Fusu handed over the folding paper and stamped it... In short, the content of the day's work was roughly the same.

Sometimes when he wanted to be lazy, the First Emperor didn't even want to stamp it, and he didn't even review it.

"The Wei family is allowed to pay tribute and all the princes and kings will be enfeoffed as guards..." Zhao Si said with a smile.

"The domestic army is being restructured. Let Weiman and Ji Zhun fight first... wait until they are free, and then annex them together. No... it shouldn't be called annexation... If you insist on saying so, it is actually regarded as the territory of Zhuxia." Zhao Si said. The concept of Zhuxia, the concept of great unity...

Along with the lifting of academic bans, Confucianism has made great progress again.

Although Legalism still dominates the current Qin Dynasty, due to Zhao Si, hundreds of schools of thought have been preserved, and the living environment has been greatly improved.

Among them, Confucianism, which is the most tenacious and the most adaptable, has made great achievements again.

Fu Qiubo, a great Confucian of Qi State, was a representative figure in history from Old Confucianism to New Confucianism, and formally proposed the theory of grand unification.

Of course, due to different times, Fuqiub's academic theory has also undergone considerable changes.

Compared with the views put forward by Confucians in history, Fuqiubo's views are more radical and expanded. This is mainly because the Qin State's national power is too strong.

Historically, at the turn of the Qin and Han Dynasties, the Central Plains was severely damaged, so that the barbarians benefited... Therefore, the theory of unified unity has a sense of resentment and revenge.

And now...

The academic theory put forward by Fuchubo sounds complicated, but it is very simple to understand.

To put it bluntly, it means that the Qin Dynasty is officially included in the dominant position in the history of the Xia Dynasty, inheriting the three emperors and five emperors and even the Xia, Shang and Zhou systems.

To put it simply, the Qin Dynasty should unify all the regional national governments affected by the history of the Xia Dynasty.

That is what later generations often say since ancient times...

For example, Jizi North Korea...Jizi, a Shang noble, the uncle of King Zhou, and the founder of Jizi North Korea.

Originally, it was incompatible with the Qin State, but according to Fu Qiubo's theory, since ancient times, the Qin Dynasty, as the successor system, had the responsibility and obligation to unify it.

Another example is the barbarian Rong Di... As opponents who once competed with the Xia in the Central Plains, Da Qin also had the responsibility and obligation to unify them.

And it is not just the unity of the region, but the unity of the race.

To put it simply, the former barbarian Rongdi living area has actually moved thousands of miles away. For example, at the beginning of the founding of the Qin State, this place was originally the gathering place of the Xirong.

Technically they have been driven away...

But that's not important. According to Fu Qiubo's theory, wherever you live, Da Qin has the obligation to conquer... until it is completely unified.

Of course, strictly speaking, there is no Xirong anymore, but that doesn’t matter. Your ancestors are, so that’s no problem...

Well... In short, Confucianism is scary when it comes to radicalization. Of course, Fu Qiubo cannot fully represent Confucianism, but it is obvious that his thoughts are more in line with the needs of the First Emperor and Zhao Si.

It is a pity that Fu Qiubo was committed to academic development and was unwilling to serve as an official. However, his disciples Shen Peigong, Bai Sheng, and Mu Sheng were promoted to Langguan by Zhao Si as an exception and officially entered the court of Qin.

To put it bluntly, it is to establish a strong reason for declaring war. As long as this theory is complete and popular enough, it is natural for the Qin Dynasty to expand its territory.

Whether morally or from any aspect...

"Where's the Peacock Kingdom? We've been fighting for so long... If it still doesn't work, we will impose additional levies in the country. What are your plans?" The First Emperor continued to ask.

"Follow the plan... It is difficult to attack an enemy of 30 million with 40,000 people, or to raise troops across the sea. It is difficult to remain invincible. How can it be so easy to achieve decisive results in one battle?
Besides, if the King of Giant Chariots really had strong teeth, he would bite him to death and refuse to give in. Could it be that he expected Li Xinxin to destroy the Peacock Kingdom with these 40,000 men? "Zhao Si rolled his eyes.

Attacking the Peacock Kingdom... don't even think about expanding the territory. The purpose of Da Qin is to flex its muscles.

But what can I say about this? People have great careers, and if they are really tough and refuse to bow their heads, then there is nothing you can do in a short period of time.

Strictly speaking, this is a war of attrition, and no one will be hurt.

It was impossible for the Qin Dynasty to destroy the Peacock Kingdom with 40,000 troops, and it was impossible for the Peacock Kingdom to cause great pain to the Qin Dynasty just because it won.

The two sides were bleeding each other. The Qin Dynasty had enough foundation, but the giant chariot king was just a tough talker. This man was worthy of being the king of the country, and he had almost no brains.

"Who told him to be tough-talking? Having said that, if Da Qin really destroys the Peacock Kingdom, but he is still tough-talking and refuses to accept it, what can he do?" Zhao Si said with a smile.

"However... the results are not without success. The current situation has actually become clearer." Zhao Si rubbed his brows and sorted out the recent war situation in the Peacock Kingdom.

"So far, all the ships of the Peacock Kingdom that can go to sea have been almost completely destroyed by the Qin Dynasty. The channels for using troops at sea have been completely cut off. The total number of enemies annihilated is more than 60,000... The Peacock Kingdom spent a lot of money to mobilize troops. There has been considerable turmoil, and the most important thing is that several forces in remote places have begun to contact Great Qin..."

"Actually, reaching this point has fulfilled my expectations. The king of giant chariots is now riding a tiger and is unable to get off. Peacock has demonstrated its ability to be strong and weak abroad. The princes from all over the country have already seen its emptiness and began to secretly prepare to contact Da Qin. Our side is There are not many, but the embassy in Ye Tiaoguo has contacted no less than a dozen local forces. Although the words are ambiguous, the thoughts are already obvious.

The most critical thing is Ye Tiaoguo. According to recent reports, Ye Tiaoguo has recently expressed the intention of joining forces with Great Qin. Obviously, Ye Tiaoguo has also seen that Peacock Kingdom is strong on the outside and cadres on the inside. After learning that Great Qin is about to withdraw its troops, I want to take the opportunity to take a bite of meat..."

Zhao Si sighed with emotion after briefly summarizing the information on Peacock Kingdom.

"Obviously, the Peacock Kingdom has reached the point of survival..."

In fact, the Peacock Kingdom perished under the leadership of the Giant Chariot King. The reason for its demise was naturally due to the lack of control by the central government, the expansion of local forces, and the increasing and irreconcilable conflicts...

This is the trajectory of history, but the sudden war between Qin State exposed the emptiness of the Peacock Kingdom earlier, and caused more people to develop ambitions...

Just as the old aristocrats of the Six Kingdoms were determined to subjugate the Qin Dynasty, the establishment of the Maurya Kingdom was originally the result of King Asoka's forced annexation during his southern and northern campaigns. How could the established aristocrats from various places loyally accept the rule of the Maurya Kingdom so quickly?

Now the situation is very optimistic for Da Qin.

First of all, the prestige of the Qin State has been firmly established. Next, even if the King of Giant Cars is still stubborn, he may not be able to stop the local forces of the Peacock Kingdom from starting trade with the Qin State.

Secondly, because of the combat effectiveness shown by Da Qin and the fact that Da Qin is far away from the Maurya Kingdom and there is no actual conflict of interest, local forces will be more inclined to cooperate with Da Qin to fight against the central government.

Da Qin has fulfilled all its roles as a war controller.

Therefore, although after two years of fighting, it seems that there is not much result, in fact, Zhao Si's goal has been achieved.

"In other words, can we withdraw our troops now?" the First Emperor asked.

"Wait a minute. In short, the food is still enough. Let's go according to the original plan. When will the food be ready and the troops withdrawn? Although it is not less than a year and a half, I always feel that at this time, Li Xin will give It’s a surprise for me…”
