My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 15 Reforming the Qin State and Reserve Qin Officials (Ask for a monthly ticket!)
All eyes fell on Fusu.

After all, who would have expected that an eight-year-old child could say such reasonable things.

This stubborn and stubborn boy on the outside has a feeling of compassion for all living beings in his heart.

No one noticed that behind the copper screen, someone in full-length clothes left quietly.

Ying Zheng sat back on the throne, slightly raised his head to look at the window on the left side of the main hall, the high sky was in front of his eyes, and several tall mulberry trees were planted outside the hall.

He took a long breath of relief.

At this moment, deep in his heart, he had made it clear about the future heir to the throne.

Outside the palace gate, Liao looked at Fusu, and couldn't help being surprised by Qin Guo again.

Isn't the eldest son of Qin the future prince?
What kind of virtues has been accumulated in this Qin country, it has survived for six generations, and there is such a wise young man as the heir.

For a moment, he was full of confidence in Qin, and he believed that Qin would be able to rule the world in the future.

When he left, his footsteps were windy and he was in a very happy mood.

He murmured to himself, "As long as people are human, they are destined to suffer when they are born. Even if the war is over, it will still be like this. No matter whether the country rises or falls, it is the people who suffer in the end."

"That's really good!"

"It makes sense."

Fusu watched Liao leave, her heart was full of admiration for him.

This person was able to make an assertion before Ying Zheng conquered the world.

He once said, "Sincerity enables the King of Qin to aspire to the world, and the world is all captive."Don't travel with him for a long time. '

If one day King Qin takes over the world, then the world will become his prisoner.Do not serve him for long.

He can predict the outcome before it even begins.

By no means ordinary people.

But what he admires most about this man is that he clearly knows that the King of Qin will succeed in the world, and the people in the world will suffer, and he will not have any good fruit to eat.

But he still came to do it.

Knowing that things won't work, they will still do it.

According to his ending in the history books, as well as Wei Liaozi's art of war unearthed by later generations.This person retired after Ying Zheng ruled the world.

While Fusu was in a daze watching Liao leave, the eunuchs in the palace saw Liao coming out and hurried in to serve Ying Zheng, change Ying Zheng's drinks and prepare food.

"Your Majesty, the Eldest Young Master is asking to see you."

"Xuan."
-
Fusu came in a hurry, and Yingzheng asked immediately when he saw him.

"No courtesy. What is there to see the widow? The widow heard that you have been waiting outside the hall for half a day today."

Fusu looked around, and signaled Ying Zheng with his eyes that it's best to get rid of all these eunuchs.

A smile appeared on Ying Zheng's face.

What kind of trick is this kid trying to play?

"You all step down. The young master has something important to report to the widow."

All the eunuchs couldn't help it and laughed.

They followed each other like fish and retreated obediently.

In the absence of everyone, Ying Zheng loosened his belt, with obvious fatigue written on his face.

"Tell me—"

It seems that Ying Zheng is in a good mood today.

"Father, my son recently thought of a clever plan. This plan will allow Qin to consolidate our newly occupied territory on the premise of winning the battle and destroying other countries."

"When our Qin State goes to war, it is always overwhelming, invincible, and invincible. However, the speed at which we occupy other places is far slower than the speed at which we govern them."

"If your father wants to unify the world, he must send our Qin officials to other places. But our Qin officials go to the territories that originally belonged to Zhao, Han, and Qi. On the one hand, they are not familiar with the place, and on the other hand, they are those who have perished. The people are numerous and powerful, but we in Qin have very few officials."

"If this continues, I'm afraid it will not be conducive to the governance of local counties. Even if the world is conquered by then, there will still be a problem of insufficient manpower to govern the world."

Yingzheng originally thought that Fusu had come to act as a demon today.

But I didn't expect him to say such thoughtful words.

An eight-year-old child who has such insights is definitely a political genius.

Ying Zheng did find the same problem when dealing with government affairs.

Because after the Qin State attacked and occupied other counties and counties, it took a lot of time to send officials to take over or send troops to suppress them.

And the military takeover of the crackdown is prone to riots.

Soldiers are struggling to fight outside, and their hearts are full of depression.For them, staying in other places for a long time is more tormenting than fighting.

The soldiers will clash with the local people.

Another example is the land that Korea voluntarily ceded to Qin, where mobs often caused rebellion.

The war has just ended, and troops are needed to suppress it; and even those places that have been captured for a long time, there will still be riots from time to time.

Therefore, Qin's soldiers and horses are always in a state of fragmentation, and the Qin kings of all dynasties were not allowed to send generals to garrison various parts of the country.

Doing so will help to disperse military power, so that the [-] elite troops in your hands will always have the upper hand.

But it also has a fatal weakness.

The army is scattered in all directions, and its combat effectiveness will decline after a long time in place.

The army cannot be used to govern local counties, it can only be used for repression.They are stuck in the same place.

And also because the takeover speed is too slow, he can't attack the city quickly.

Because it takes a lot of time to take over from the rear, the rear is unstable, and the soldiers fighting in the front are also panicked.

Therefore, every time after attacking the city, Yingzheng had to keep a large number of troops stationed there in case of accidents.

Over time, the supply of food and grass became a problem again.

He had to increase taxes on the people in the country, and at the same time he had to constantly pull people from other people's homes to lead troops to fight.

As time went by, there were rumors in the Qin State that having sons was not as good as having daughters.

The people of the Qin State said that as long as they are the sons of the Qin State, they will either die in taxation or in the battlefield.

One link after another, the ills in each link have been accumulated for a long time. Once they break out, big trouble will occur.

Therefore, those who are really in high positions are walking on thin ice.

Because they know that the lowest level of power is in danger of collapsing at any time.

And what disgusted him was that those who were recommended by the three lords and nine ministers would only sing praises, and had no idea about how to deal with these court ills.

But his son actually thought of this problem on his own without any instructions.

"Good. Go on."

"Father, my son thinks that if we start from the problem of insufficient officials, this matter may be cured."

Ying Zheng was slightly disappointed.

"Is it just starting from the shortage of officials? You have to know that my Qin State is a country that has been fighting for a long time. As early as when King Zhaoxiang was alive, he had already started on the issue of officials."

"Originally, the Qin officials in our Qin State could only enter the government if they were hereditary, and continue to serve as Qin officials. Later, in order to train Qin officials, we selected talents who could gradually become available among the eunuchs in the palace and specially trained them."

After Zhao Gao was convicted of a crime, he had no chance to turn over, but he only enjoyed the rules set by the late King Zhaoxiang, and that's why he achieved his current status.

"Later, the state of Qin established a special school, and stipulated that scholars who were not hereditary officials of the Qin Dynasty could also enter the school to study through recommendation."

"Now that I have succeeded to the throne, I immediately issued an order to slowly promote Qin officials from among the sword and pen officials."

"If we only solve these problems based on the shortcomings of Qin officials, does it seem that the former king Zhaoxiang and the others were too stupid?"

"However, you have done well enough. This idea is very good. At least you have seen the many problems that exist in my country of Qin."
