My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 233 Strategic Fortress (please reward and subscribe!)
After the baptism of autumn rain, the flowers shrank into a ball, looking depressed.

With the howling autumn wind, the mountains are also covered with a little white.

As winter approaches, the wedding finally officially ends.

Before the bridal chamber was full of flowers and candles for a month, Fusu and his newlyweds finished worshiping their ancestors in the Qin Guo Temple, and then went out to guard the border with the army.

This time's border defense is an unprecedented opportunity for the entire Qin State to rest and recuperate.

There are more and more craftsmen in the workshop, almost a group of ten, dedicated to pounding grass, sinking pulp, making pulp and drying paper.

Over the past eight years, the papermaking process has developed into a complete set of mature technologies.

At the same time, the sound of reading was loud in the Taixue classroom, and more and more young people wearing jackal hats came out of the classroom.

Because half of them now have the opportunity to be promoted based on military merit. They have just climbed up from the bottom of society, and they know the situation of the people at the bottom best.

A new trend of governance is being carried from Xianyang to various counties and counties along with these officials who have been dispatched.

In Zhangtai Palace, Ying Zheng was personally meeting a person recommended by Fu Su.

This guy, he's a criminal.

When Gong Yeju was wearing coarse clothes and eating dry food in Tingwei's mansion, after several months, the prince finally thought of him.

"I heard from the prince that opposition forces in various places are ready to move, and there are many people who are dissatisfied with our great cause of unifying Qin. Is this true?"

Gong Yeju was a prisoner for a time and suffered a lot. Now he knows what it feels like to be oppressed and enslaved endlessly because of trivial things.

"Your Majesty, what the prince said is true. Among the six kingdoms, there are voices of anger and resentment against our Qin State. They are just afraid of the power of our Qin army, and they obey on the surface. In fact, they are lurking in secret, waiting for opportunities. And move.”

No one, no words, could escape Ying Zheng's shrewd eyes.

Being stared at by Qin Wangzheng with his eagle-like eyes, Gong Yeju couldn't help but shrink back.

"According to what you said, the memorials reported by county guards and people everywhere are all false."

Fusu left, but before leaving, he left a huge hot potato for the Qin court - hidden dangers in local governance.

"Your Majesty, the sinners dare not deceive your Majesty. The people of the Six Kingdoms have always been resentful of the Qin Kingdom. They believe from the bottom of their hearts that our Qin Kingdom is a country of tigers and wolves and a rude master. However, under the military conquest, although their names were included in the I have no record of my birthplace in Qin, but my heart is always full of anger and resentment towards Qin."

Ying Zheng felt nothing new after hearing this, "What else is there?"

Gong Yeju hesitated for a moment, looked at the ministers sitting beside Ying Zheng, and did not dare to speak for a long time.

Ying Zheng was originally very happy, but for this reason, he already believed that he was destined to be one in ten thousand, and that he would become the master of the world in the future.

But now Gong Yeju told him that everyone in the world hated Qin.It's like a man loves a woman, but the woman doesn't love the man, and in the end the man still forcibly marries the woman.

Everyone knows what will happen in the future.

And what happens in a family is insignificant compared to the country.

When the word "hate" was brought to Ying Zheng and Qin's senior officials, everyone knew that there was more to the annexation of the six kingdoms than hidden dangers.

"Tell me, what else!?"

Not only Gong Yeju, but also Wang Wan, Li Si, Feng Quji, Yao Jia and others were startled by this sound.

"Your Majesty, please calm down." The people on the left and right kept admonishing.

Gongyeju had no choice but to bite the bullet and explain everything about local governance one by one.

"For one thing, in the past, they never reported anything to the government. Instead, they relied on local famous people to take charge of important matters."

“For the second wedding and funeral ceremonies, local people are also invited to attend.”

"Only for these two things, they didn't rely on the law at all in the past and solved it themselves. This made them always reject our Qin's law, thinking that the Qin law is strict and follows the rules in everything, which hurts people's feelings."

"Secondly, local Qin officials are only in charge of legal provisions. Except for reporting to the government, they have difficulty in contacting the common people at other times. The common people do not report anything and are unwilling to report to the government. Not to mention major events such as weddings and funerals."

"Almost all the common people in a county are close neighbors and have known each other for generations. They all crowd into an ancestral hall during the annual festival. When something goes wrong in a family, relatives and friends are surrounded by help. They never ask the government for justice."

"Because these matters are the most important aspect of people's livelihood, this makes it impossible for our Qin officials to bring them under control no matter how fair they are."

In other words, Ying Zheng's orders cannot be implemented on these people.

"According to you, the one they oppose the most is Qin Fa?"

Gong Yeju thought about it. What the common people opposed was the more severe and severe oppression and exploitation of them by the Qin State.But such words cannot be said openly in court.

Gongye couldn't help but nodded.

Seeing that the situation was coming, Gong Yeju quickly kowtowed and asked:

"Your Majesty, I beg you to forgive the villain's sins and let him serve his crimes. Don't let villains be slaves anymore."

"Since it is the prince who intercedes for you and gives you this opportunity, then you can return to Xinzheng and assist the prince."

Gong Yeju felt refreshed at first, and then tears flowed down inexplicably.

"Your Majesty is so kind! Your Majesty is so kind! Gongye's event will be unforgettable."

When Gong Yeju was taken away, the palace fell into silence.

Li Si was the first to say, "Your Majesty, the people of the six kingdoms are accustomed to being free and loose, without the restraint of laws, and the whole country is in disarray. If Qin conquers the world and does not use Qin's system to govern it and strictly restrain its subjects, then Aren’t we just following the path of failure of the Six Nations?”

Li Si's words are indeed consistent with Ying Zheng's thoughts.

"What Tingwei said makes sense." Wang Wan said, "Now that the matter has come to this, what can be done next? I have also heard that the reason why many local Qin officials are unpopular is not because of their own inaction, but because of the resistance of the people. Especially in some local areas. The rebel forces instigated the situation and the common people gathered in crowds, so they lost the ability to think independently, became more blind, and fought against the government. These things happened from time to time, which made the situation more serious."

"In my opinion, we should start from the root of the problem. How about turning enemies into friends with one move. Select from the original officials of the six countries, and what's more, give local officials the opportunity to recommend talents."

"Any Qin official who is sent to various local counties, no matter how big or small, and if they find that there are talents available in various places, they can recommend and promote people from the countryside in their own name, giving them a chance to win the favor of the king."

"In this way, we can resolve the resentment of some local scholars who are ignorant of the overall situation of the world against the Qin State, and can also encourage local officials and common people to surrender to our Qin State and encourage them to serve our Qin State."

Feng Quji also said, "Your Majesty, I think this is feasible. Now the people in charge of the place should be our Qin officials. They are no longer relatives and vassals of the nobles of the six countries in the past. Those are ignorant and greedy people who only know how to plunder the people." Wealth and goods are too much to talk about governing a common people."

"There are some local tyrants and bullies. Although they have pavilion chiefs who specialize in arresting thieves, they are ultimately incomparable to the local tyrants. Now our Qin State should give more power to local Qin officials and pavilion chiefs, especially to local officials. Qin officials should be given the right to recommend local wise men, so that they can show the king's heart."

"The bustling world is all about profit; the bustle in the world is all about profit. People all over the world flock to each other for benefit, and they also go their separate ways for benefit. I have always believed that no matter what kind of problem, as long as we can grasp the benefit in the end, With the most fundamental guidance, everything can be solved.”

Ying Zheng looked at Feng Quji. Over the years, Feng Quji had become more and more prime minister-like.

"good."

This matter is settled like this.

It's just Qin Fa's matter that no one mentioned.

The foundation of Qin's law is to maintain the foundation of Qin as a powerful country.Only the restrictive Qin Law brought everyone who grew up on the land and originally moved freely into the country's system, allowing them to serve the country and obey the orders of one person.

It is said that the Qin Law is strict, but in fact the Qin Law itself is the predecessor of the centralized system-the emperor system.

What the people are resisting is the excessive oppression and exploitation of the bottom by the upper class.

When these things seriously exceed their load and they can no longer live their lives, and they have to deal with the country's taxes, who can not feel resentful?
But how can the oppressor, as a beneficiary, think about these issues?

Leaving Xianyang and heading east again, this time Fusu was surrounded by heavy armor.All he could see were either mountains and rivers or Qin soldiers, not even passers-by.

One hundred thousand troops were sent to guard the border between Qin and Chu.

Fusu set up the gate in Xinzheng, the old capital of Korea.

Xinzhengguan Station, South Korea.

The lake is as flat as a mirror, and the roofs of the tiled houses are covered with moss and green mud.

The wind is howling and the freezing rain is falling.

"Prince, why are you here in Xinzheng again?" Guan Fu couldn't help but ask, looking at the small courtyard where he had been beaten.

"This was the central area that originally radiated to the entire South Korea, and it is also the geographical center of the world today."

"To resist the Chu State, this army must be placed in a position adjacent to the Chu State and at the same time able to radiate and control the Wei State."

"There used to be riots in Pingfan in South Korea, but now the army is suppressing them here. It can also play a role in deterring and appeasing them. It will also have a great impact on the management of the Chu State that has been occupied."

Guan Fu: "But aren't we guarding the border? Shouldn't we be standing at the junction between Qin and Chu? Only in this way can we resist the Jing people."

"If you want to conquer the outside world, you must first make peace at home. You don't like driving a chariot by yourself and someone is shooting cold arrows at you from behind."

"This is the kind of person I hate the most. However, if Chu comes to attack, will we be able to move in time?"

Meng Tian was happy, "Wei Commander, don't worry. We have set up a beacon tower, raised the tower, and sent additional scouts. If there is any movement from Lord Chu, we will know it within half a day."

Li Xin stood on the edge, looking at the small lake, and his heart was as green as the bottom of the lake.

Originally, it would have been fine just to go out and have a good fight, but now he was asked to accompany the prince.

However, before the trip, the elders in the clan told me, "This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you to accompany the prince on the expedition. You must seize it."

Li Xin, who was tall and strong, looked at Fusu, who was more than ten years younger than him.

Although the prince is a king, he is not enough to accomplish anything.

The king has a clear mind and knows that the prince has no actual combat experience, so he appointed himself to support the prince.

A general who is brave and good at fighting will arouse the fear of the king if he has too many military exploits.

It would be good for the prince to supervise the battle.

But I still have to have real military exploits on my shoulders, and I must be the vanguard when attacking cities and territories. Only in this way can I be granted the title of marquis without spending 35.

Li Xin stood aside and watched the generals discussing military affairs around the prince. He didn't like to hear it.

There is no need for these things on the battlefield.

After staying with him for about half an hour, Li Xin couldn't control his feelings and bowed, "Prince, this is my first time coming to this place and I want to go out for a walk."

Everyone suddenly fell silent, just looking back at Li Xin.

Being stared at by everyone, Li Xin first looked at the ground, and then looked at the prince.

"Go." Fusu's face was calm.

Ren Xiao watched Li Xin walk away and couldn't help but said, "Captain Li has always been impatient. He doesn't hold back in front of the prince."

After saying this, everyone looked at Ren Xiao.

Ren Xiao looked left and right, wondering what he had said wrong, so he murmured in his heart: "How can you go on an expedition with the prince, just like accompanying the king. Originally, when generals stand together, they should say whatever they want."
