My son, Fusu, please abdicate the first emperor!

Chapter 241 I have a good proposal (please give me a monthly ticket!)
Anyway, you can do whatever you want, don’t say you have to be a good person and be benevolent and righteous.

"There is no such thing as benevolence and righteousness. Now Yangqu is the territory of our Qin people. The purpose of repairing the city is to strengthen the defense; to repair the rivers is to increase food and grass; to restore the Chidao transportation is to facilitate the march of the army."

"To be a leader, you must consider the overall situation."

In fact, not many people believed this.

They were only convinced from these things that Prince Fusu was really a benevolent and righteous gentleman and was really good to the people.

All the generals are also very cooperative, and they all agree with Daowei.

Li Xin also admired the prince.Looking at the prince's words and deeds, he believed that the future King of Qin would be supported by all the people.

"Do you know that Yangqu is the place where King Qi of Xia once held the imperial palace. This is a geomantic treasure. If it is managed well, it can become a large city with abundant products in the future."

"In ancient times, there was plenty of sunshine and plenty of rain between heaven and earth, and water and grass were plentiful. All kinds of animals that are now extinct lived in the rivers and rivers."

"Yangqu is a place where elephants, buffaloes, bamboos, etc. have always been there since ancient times. Everything is prosperous and colorful."

"When Han Jinghou, the founding king of Korea, led his troops to this place and saw many wonders and rare wild animals, he repeatedly praised: "Yangzaizhai, Yangzaizhai!" "The accompanying civil and military ministers also echoed: "Yang Zai Zhai! ""Yang Zai Zhai! ""

"So, this place was called "Yangzhai"."

"In this city, King Qi of Xia had an alliance here, and the founding king of Korea was buried here. So many heroic spirits are buried here, and many more talents were born here. If you appease the people in this area, you can get the blessing of the local gods."

The senior officials of the Qin State do not believe in benevolence and righteousness, but they believe in evil.

They are very superstitious about ghosts and gods.

With this explanation, these generals naturally led their soldiers to build cities and practice Taoism happily.

Zhang Cang followed behind and couldn't help but look at Fusu with admiration.

It is really not easy for a prince to do these things in such an environment in Qin.
-
Shouchun, the capital of Chu State.

At this time, Xiang Yan was ready to go against Qin.

Winter and summer are good times for the Chu people to take action. The Qin army has been in the north for a long time and has difficulty adapting to the climate here.

The weather in winter was cold and humid, and the moisture invaded, which was a huge torture to the Qin army who had to wait and defend in place.

When Xiang Yan's new plan is shattered, they can only find ways to fight a tough battle.

This is the right time.

Jing Yi, Prime Minister of Chu State, said, "Right now, we must first destroy Prince Qin's task of guarding the city. As long as our army captures the Qin army's city, it will break the lie that Prince Qin told the King of Qin. Wait until the Prince of Qin has conquered the land of Han and Chu for a year When we can't defend it, let alone talk about arrogant words about destroying Qi and Chu within two years. The King of Qin will definitely become angry from shame, and the Prince of Qin will definitely be replaced by then."

The ministers discussed and all focused on themselves.

Since the Qin army came fiercely and made it clear that it would destroy Chu, the task of guarding Chu fell on Xiang Yan's shoulders.

At this time, Chu Chen all abdicated and gave up power to themselves.

At this time, the latest news about Yang Qu was quickly reported to the King of Chu.

In the court hall of Chu State.

When all the ministers heard this, they naturally felt inexplicable pressure.

"You are saying that the Prince of Qin has now ordered the soldiers of the State of Qin to build wells, dig canals, build roads, and mend walls for the people of the State of Chu?"

"Back to your Majesty, this matter is absolutely true. The entire people south of the Qin army's defense line now know these things." The King of Chu kept his eyes closed. He swallowed the lump in his throat and sat on the throne. People fall into a great sense of frustration.

Xiang Yan also felt at this time that the Prince of Qin was more difficult to deal with than he thought.

"He is a soldier who subjugates others without fighting. People's livelihood is foolish if they gather together. Once someone takes the lead, they will blindly follow him. According to his approach, within half a year, people all over the world will be grateful to him and willing to serve him and be his disciples. civil."

"Your Majesty, please give me an order to lead the Chu soldiers to do these things. Only in this way can we comply with the people's hearts and lead the people to compete with Qin."

But for some reason, the ministers of the Chu State who also grew up eating Jingchu fish and rice were collectively furious.

Prime Minister Jingyi laughed and said, "That's ridiculous! I am the great state of Chu, with hundreds of years of foundation. Prince Fusu is just a stupid boy. I think I can use these bad tricks to win over people's hearts after reading a few books by sages. It's simply Ridiculous. Most of the people have only seen the power of the king."

"Qin has destiny, but our country of Chu has always been protected by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, and Shao Si ordered to pray for the country. Qin can conquer the world, but our Chu country is not a part of the world. We have our own gods to protect us and take care of the people in several cities. do what."

"The ancestors have spoken, the ancestral temple is established, and the hearts of the people are united. Our country of Chu has always had ancestral temple priests. At this juncture, as long as the king goes to the ancestral temple to offer sacrifices and worship the gods, the ancestors will surely appear and the gods will bless them. The people of Chu will naturally return to their hearts. , why do you need to do anything to build roads for the people!"

Xiang Yan looked serious, "As the Prime Minister said, the king can govern the country not by implementing benevolent policies, but by simply worshiping the ancestral temple?"

Prime Minister Jingyi asked back, "Isn't it true? The general wants to imitate the treacherous minister Qu Yuan. Qu Yuan was so full of benevolence, justice and morality, but in fact he was most hypocritical and selfish. In the end, he couldn't win over the ministers in the court in his struggle for power, and he died."

"We have been working hard all day long for the sake of Chu and for the king. For the sake of Chu, the king gave the general 40 troops. Now, on the day when he should have conquered other countries, the general is here talking about national affairs. Is it because he is afraid of Qin? Are you a country boy? Or are you saying that the general is afraid that Qin and Chu will be at a disadvantage in the battle?"

The scholar opened his mouth, like a poisonous snake crawling around his body.

It doesn't bite you, it just spits messages at you.

Once a civil servant said this, the generals would naturally not accept it.

A quarrel broke out in the palace. King Chu's face was as dark as a weight that had accumulated rust for a hundred years.

Seeing that the situation was like this, Xiang Yan had no way to stop it.

There are too many treacherous officials and villains in the government.

Fu Chu's face turned pale.

Slowly, the palace became quiet.

"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Jing Yi asked.

Looking at Xiang Yan, he said helplessly, "General, hurry up and go to war."

"promise."

In the court, fighting with the ministers, he can still hold his breath for the sake of face.

Once back home, Xiang Yan immediately felt exhausted.

"Father, there are too many incompetents in the government. If they act like this, even if my father goes to fight, there is no guarantee that they will not use other methods in the rear."

"In this case, what will be done? I don't know how to fight this battle now? Judging from the series of actions of Prince Qin, he will not have thought of the consequences of leading a hundred thousand troops to guard the border. I am worried now, what has he prepared? Strategies await me.”

Xiang Liang was surprised, "Father, he has not been crowned yet. Why should father be so afraid of him?"

Xiang Yan sighed helplessly, "Liang! You don't understand the truth of this. The essence of war is to use people's hearts! The art of war is the way to govern a country!"
