My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 125: Use fishing nets to catch sediment (please give me a monthly ticket!)
"Prince, we can't do our best. It's really these stupid people who don't understand the king's painstaking efforts. The king wants to make the world war-free through annexation war, but they are working against the king and us."

The speaker is Gong Yeju, a long-time official in Xinzheng.

"In accordance with the order issued by the king, we implemented the Qin Law in Xinzheng step by step, but they were very resistant to it. We even taught them the Qin Law on the front foot, and they sang Korean songs in groups behind the house, with their voices rising and falling."

"They were organized and planned in advance to deliberately create obstacles for us to hinder us."

Fusu and this official were sitting across the curtain.

To make sure nothing goes wrong.

No one wanted the prince to make a mistake and lose his head in the end.

"I heard that although Xinzheng is now nominally the land of the Qin State, this city is extremely dangerous. By analogy, the situation of other lands donated by the King of Han in the past is not much better."

This long official Gong Yeju knew that this was an excellent opportunity to please the prince.

"What the prince said is absolutely true. An old Korean capital like Xinzheng is heavily guarded. These mobs don't take the king seriously, let alone other weakly guarded areas. Please give us a clear path."

"Shall I show you the way?"

Gong Yeju smiled and said, "Prince I don't know, my daughter is the same age as the prince this year, but she grew up listening to the prince's stories. In the minds of girls of their age, the prince is a figure in myths and legends." .”

"There are still many nobles in Xinzheng who are acting secretly. They are far more familiar with Xinzheng than us Qin people. It is very difficult to govern. They are like loaches. It is not easy to catch them and punish them, but soon Just slipped away again.”

"I'm really helpless here. Fortunately, the prince is here now. The prince is always witty. Please give me some advice."

Gong Yeju's tone was full of excitement, pretending to be embarrassed.

Fusu sat, dissatisfied with the Gong Yeju in front of him.

This long-time official will do whatever he wants, no matter what his own daughter is.Moreover, both inside and outside of these words, he wanted to please the prince for profit.

Meng Tian's shrewd eyes came over and fell on Gong Yeju. Seeing Meng Tian's expression clearly disgusted with his words and deeds, Gong Yeju shrank his hands and feet and pretended to be submissive.

"General Meng, what do you think?"

Meng Tian said bluntly, "Prince, Xinzheng is now the legitimate territory of our Qin State. This Korean noble is now also a nominal subject of our Qin State. If they incite the people to rebel or rebel, they can be dealt with according to Qin laws."

"My opinion is to conduct a strict investigation and then catch all the people behind these mobs and catch them all to serve as a warning to others."

Xin also thinks what Meng Tian said is right.

"Prince, I also agree with General Meng's proposition. These rebels cannot be let go at all. We have to dig deep into the ground to catch them."

Fusu thought of Zhang Liang as early as on the way to South Korea.

He believed that Zhang Liang must have been involved in everything.

"If you dig the ground three feet, why can't you find the rebels?" Fusu asked.

Lin Xin and Meng Tian looked at each other.

Meng Tian bowed and said, "Prince, your Majesty often teaches us ministers that everything depends on people. As long as we go and investigate, we can give these people a deterrent."

Fusu shook his head, "The fact that they dare to rebel shows that they are not afraid of death. Even if we use Qin officials and censors to investigate and spend a lot of manpower, I think it may not be effective. They may not reveal the mastermind behind it, and they can instigate two rebellions The mastermind who has not yet surfaced shows that he is very thoughtful.”

"I don't think that we Qin people are not good. It's just that we can win every battle only if we know ourselves and the other side. Our Qin State seems to be powerful, but dealing with these small and scattered rebels is like using a fishing net to salvage the bottom of the river. The fine sand and silt. What do you think you can catch?"

After Fusu said such words, neither Meng Tian nor Lin Xin could answer.

Gongzi Teng, who was sitting aside to watch the show, finally couldn't help clapping his hands and applauding.

"The prince said it well. Every time we mobilize troops to hunt down suspected rebels throughout the city, they always escape. It is said that there are many tunnels underground in Xinzheng City to facilitate their operations. We want these tunnels to be flooded. So as to destroy the den where they gathered, but they couldn’t find the entrance, and they were very tight-lipped.”

"If we continue to mobilize troops to deal with this matter, not only will the people of Xinzheng be panicked, but we will have little effect, and we will also be exhausted. Over time, the soldiers will also suffer unspeakably. On the contrary, it will make those lawless elements hiding in the dark more and more miserable. furious."

When Gong Yeju heard this, he just kept bowing his head to express his approval of the words of the prince and Nei Shiteng.

"What the prince and the internal history said is absolutely true. A big net cannot catch fine sand. The more we try to suppress them, the more fiercely they resist." Gong Yeju suddenly changed the topic again, "But if we let it go, They will still become more rampant.”

"Then let's solve the problem from the root. Give Korean people land to farm, first raid the homes of a few nobles, and distribute the land to the common people with little land and the landless servants. Gong Yeju, you will take all the land in Xinzheng City. The aristocratic family should prepare an account for me, and then report their household registration in Xinzheng City."

Gong Yeju's originally smiling face froze. "What are you doing standing still?"

Gong Yeju didn't understand, "Prince, since you want to confiscate all the fields of these nobles, are they really going to be distributed only to Korean common people and farm servants?"

Fusu smiled and said, "When we disintegrate these connected aristocrats and allow the common people of Korea to settle down and sincerely submit to our Qin State, it won't be too late to divide this land."

Hearing this, Gong Yeju could only nod.

Although he felt that what the prince said was a bit far-fetched, the person in front of him was the prince after all. What if he accidentally made the prince angry and he hacked himself to death.

"I'm going to rest. I'm too tired these days. If there's nothing serious, don't come to me within three days."

"only."

Gongyeju took the order and walked out, but he was thinking on the way.

Qin officials who came all the way from Xianyang to govern the place could hardly obtain a large amount of land unless they compromised with the old local aristocrats.

But there is Nei Shiteng here, and once he discovers that he has the intention of collaborating with the enemy, he is destined to die.

I don't think this prince is as witty as the rumors say.

He actually wanted to rob the Korean nobles' land and distribute it to the common people and servant cultivators.

Isn't this a crime?
This is the first time I've seen someone handle government affairs like this.

After Gong Yeju left, Teng stood up and said, "Prince, a banquet has been prepared in my house, specially set up to entertain the prince. Please move over."

Fusu had no reason not to go, as his elders were calling him to eat.

"Wait for me to change clothes and go immediately." Fusu saw that Meng Tian had something to say to him.

"Then I'll wait for the prince outside." After saying that, Teng stepped out first.

After going out, he couldn't help but think to himself that this Meng Tian didn't know how to read words and emotions, and his likes and dislikes were all written on his face. He wanted to be an upright and upright gentleman, but there was no guarantee that he would offend many people in the future.

Teng stood waiting outside the courtyard.

In the room, Meng Tian said to Fusu, "Prince, I see that this act of justice is frivolous, so it would be best for Prince to stay away from this person."

Guan Fu didn't understand. He didn't know why Meng Tian said that.

He felt that Gong Yeju was quite good at doing things, and he praised the prince lavishly.

"General Meng, let's go have a drink together."

"But the prince, the chief official of Xinzheng, can't convince the public by acting like this. He will only attract some flashy people to gather around him. Such a person as a chief will only alienate all the officials under his command.

What Meng Tian said did make sense, so Fusu asked, "Then what do you think we should do?"

"When I get back, I will go to the king and expose this villain. Please ask the king to choose another official to come."

"Then there are only a handful of people in the world who can strictly abide by the Qin officials' ways, even the two in front of me."

Fusu looked at Xin and Mengtian.

Meng Tian was speechless for a moment.

"No one is perfect. I do think that the reason your father chose to send Gong Yeju here must be because he has something special about him."

Fusu said, but Meng Tian did not agree with this.

What he hates most is villains.These villains obviously did something wrong, but they refused to admit it. They didn't dare to admit it to themselves, and they would only make small moves in secret.

Because Meng Tian suffered a lot from the villain, he hated the villain and felt that it was the villain's fault when things went bad.

　It's mid-month, shake it and reward.
