My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 162: Everything I did was obviously right

Chapter 162: Everything I did was obviously right (please give me a monthly reward!)
Wang Wan originally wanted to say that in everything, he was most afraid of going too far.

As the prince said, imposing severe punishments on newly conquered countries will only lead to resentment and curses from the people.

At this time, Li Si saw that Ying Zheng was angry, and he hurriedly stepped forward.

"Your Majesty, I believe that if small evildoers are not severely punished, those who have made mistakes but only received minor punishments will secretly be complacent. Once things start, if such a situation is not curbed, the situation will be troubled in the future. It’s hard to end.”

"I dare to steal openly today, but I don't know what kind of things I will do in the future."

As we all know, today's world is full of thieves.

Compared with modern society, the social security level at the end of the war was very low, so as soon as every household saw that it was getting dark, they would immediately let out the dogs and close their doors.

At present, only the situation in Qin is better. To judge whether a country's public security situation is good or not, just look at how many warriors the nobles in gorgeous clothes bring with them when traveling.

"It's obviously robbery and theft, but it's said to be picking up unwanted things. If such a bad behavior is not punished, then people all over the world will commit theft in the future. As long as they say that they are just picking up things that others don't want, does this mean? Yes, they can all be given a lighter punishment."

When Ying Zheng heard this, he was naturally kind.

"What Tingwei said makes sense. We must not tolerate small evils, otherwise it will lead to big disasters in the future. I have decided to behead all these people in public."

Wang Wan's eyes lowered and he looked at the ground.

Ying Zheng just watched this scene quietly.

When all the matters were discussed, Wang Wan, Wei Zhuang, Feng Quji, Li Si and others came out one after another.

Ying Zheng was sitting alone in Zhangtai Palace. He looked at the seat where Wang Wan had sat, and doubts arose in his heart.

Ever since Wang Wan became prime minister, he has been different from before.

In the past, he always agreed with the widow's ideas, but now, his attitude towards politics is obviously different from the widow's.

Wang Wan left the palace. As the prime minister, the carriage he traveled in was very simple.

He only used a two-horse carriage, which was also richly decorated, and his servants looked like pleasant-looking people, with no arrogance or arrogance on their faces.

There were only four barefoot servants following the carriage.

Such a carriage drove out from the palace and drove slowly into the streets and alleys of Xianyang City. It looked very inconspicuous in Xianyang City, which was full of bells and dishes.

The carriage followed the flow of people and headed to the south of the city.

Wang Wan's new home is a house with seven entrances.In the society at that time, this was equivalent to living in a luxury villa thousands of meters high in later generations.

But Wang Wan's home is as simple as his carriage.

The King of Qin gave him a house with seven jins, but the whole family could not live in more than three jins.So Wang Wan planted grain in other yards of his house.

Wang Wan's family was originally from a farmer's family. He was able to sit in the position of prime minister, but he did not forget his past life and was able to face farming calmly. People of insight naturally admire him.

As for the servants and slaves, Wang Wan felt that the number was enough, so the number of servants around him was always very small.

Therefore, outsiders always think that Wang Wan's family has a mountain of wealth and a pile of gold like dirt.

Because everyone saw that the gold and silver treasures were going into the Wang's house, but not leaving the Wang's house.

On this day, Wang Wan returned home and sat on the banquet, letting out a long sigh.

"Ugh……"

Wang Wan has always been a down-to-earth person, always cheerful, and always has a smile in his eyes.The person he admired was Confucius' disciple Yan Hui.As the saying goes, one basket of food and one ladle of drink means that in a back alley, one cannot bear the worries and will not change his happiness when he returns home.

Wang Wan felt that as long as he could live up to his own conscience and be worthy of the world and the people, anything would be fine.

Such a person, after he became the prime minister, was always worried and frowning all day long.

Wang Wan's wife then approached and asked, "What happened to my beloved today? Could it be that something big happened in the court?"

When Wang Wan saw his wife, his eyes lit up with smiles, and he just said, "No, no. Madam, you heard wrong."

"Okay then." The Prime Minister's wife just walked away.

Wang Wan looked at the spacious house alone. This was the house awarded to him by Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng didn't say anything, but Wang Wan knew that this was Ying Zheng's response to his years of hard work.

But for some reason, he felt that the king gradually changed after destroying Zhao and South Korea.

The current king is becoming more and more arbitrary and can no longer listen to what others say.

Your Majesty has now destroyed Zhao and South Korea. This is an unprecedented feat in the entire history of Qin.

Anyone who is immersed in pride and complacency will become stubborn and will make wrong judgments about the people and things around him over time.

Wang Wan was deeply worried about this.

At this moment, Ying Zheng in Xianyang Palace felt more and more lonely. In the past, Wang Wan would play chess and chat with him, but now he left after talking about things.

Wang Wan seemed to be hiding a lot of things in his heart and was afraid to say them outright.

Now, there is only one Zhao Gao beside me, and then there are Li Si, Feng Quji and others.

But even if there are such people, Ying Zheng knows very well that the value of their existence is to make themselves feel comfortable, not because they do the right thing.

Ying Zheng felt more and more lonely in his heart, but the queen no longer came to him as before.It is impossible for him to go to the queen, it seems that he does not have the majesty of an emperor and is only emotional.

Sitting on the cold throne, Ying Zheng couldn't understand why everyone didn't understand him even though he was doing the right thing.Even the queen gradually distanced herself from him.

Could it be said that between people, feelings can always give way to interests?

Zhao Gao saw what was on Ying Zheng's mind and hurriedly took this opportunity to say to Ying Zheng, "Your Majesty, the princess of the Yan Kingdom has arrived in Xianyang. Why don't you move there? I heard that this princess of the Yan Kingdom is famous. She is a great beauty, and she is also very young, only 17 years old.”

Ying Zheng was naturally interested in this, "Zhao Gao, Zhao Gao, you are really a roundworm in my belly."

At Zhao Gao's reminder, Ying Zheng went to see the princess of Yan that night.

Zhao Gao has always been picky, so the beauty he mentioned was naturally beautiful. As soon as Ying Zheng saw this beauty, he fell in love with her very much.

For several days, he went to the palace of Princess Yan.

When Ying Zheng was having fun with Princess Yan in the harem, Wang Jian also led an army back.

The effective forces of Yan State were wiped out, and Wang Jian brought back the elite troops of Qin State's main force.

His son Wang Bi chose to flood the rice fields. Within half a month, people in the Wei city had already died due to secondary disasters due to water blocking the outside of the city.

The attack on Chu State was finally officially put on the agenda.
