Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 420: A general amnesty for the prisoners, and the nobles of the six countries were buried with Emperor Qin (please subscribe and reward!)
Ying Zheng's will to power was fully implemented by Meng Tian as his mission in life.

But how many people can clearly understand what role they play under a limited perspective and structure?

Perhaps Meng Tian's original intention was good, but the fact is that anyone who holds great power and has a will independent of the emperor is destined to become 'Lu Buwei' in the eyes of the emperor!
On the issue of enfeoffment, Meng Tian and Feng Quji looked at each other and reached a certain consensus.

But they also know that at this moment, the thoughts of the person in the palace are also very important.The only thing worth looking forward to is that the new emperor's temperament is much better than that of the previous emperor.

The new emperor is no better than the previous emperor and can be exhorted.

Several young masters paid homage to the new emperor, and then went to pay homage to Ying Zheng. These children who grew up under the watch of Ying Zheng had far more opportunities to see Ying Zheng than those younger brothers who were born later, so this feeling naturally also Deeper.

Seeing Ying Zheng's coffin, the brothers and their party all felt sad.

They were sad for the father's love they never got, sad for the loss of the inheritance of the empire, sad for the death of the father who had worked hard all his life but could not get his recognition, and sad for the biological father who was not able to see him before he died.

When the sadness was written on the faces of these grown men, the tears of the queen, the wives and the young men seemed a little fragile, and their tears became a little fake.

The young masters soon arrived and knelt outside the hall. They were not qualified to kneel in the inner hall and could only kneel with the royal family members in the side hall.

And according to the etiquette, they, the concubines, are not qualified to worship their king and father in the future.

This is the tragedy of the feudal system.

After the older gentlemen retreated, Shen Yu took the initiative and whispered in Fusu's ear:
"Your Majesty, it was reported that the three young masters met on the way, so they came together. Along the way, all the young masters have stayed in the same room many times."

After hearing this, Fusu just burned another stack of paper money.

Just now he was thinking about the reaction of the old nobles outside the pass.

But I didn't expect that troubles would come one after another.

What did Ying Zheng mean when he called them back in the first place?

Did he use his authority to order them to defend his power on the border, or did he deliberately intend to let the young masters stay in Xianyang City?

If you can't figure it out, then don't think about it.

"Continue to order people to watch. Also, find an opportunity to tell the prime minister and others about this matter quietly and see how they react."

After finishing speaking, Fusu said loudly again:
"Tell the prime minister to come over as the young mansion."

Feng Quji was Yingzheng's prime minister, but he was not Fusu's most preferred prime minister. Feng Quji actually felt a little panicked.

How to achieve a political alliance with the new emperor, it will take time for him to express, but if he can't do this, he, the prime minister, is afraid that he will go home soon.

Zhang Han was very sad about Ying Zheng's sudden death, but he was not worried about his own life.

Because of the thousands of troops and horses that His Majesty had previously entrusted, not all of the pottery figurines have been completed yet, and there are still many pits that have not yet been fully laid out.

In short, the mausoleum has not yet been completed, but what needs to be done now is to let His Majesty enter the tomb and then seal it, which requires mobilizing more people to complete this task.

But those 70 prisoners have long lost their former vitality, and the construction period has been repeatedly delayed. They are now living like zombies.

At this time, Zhang Han entered the Zhangtai Hall like a guilty mouse. His strong and upright figure was in front of Fusu, but he did not dare to raise his head at all.

"Zhang Han."

"His Majesty--"

"I heard that the imperial mausoleum has not been completed yet."

Zhang Han looked troubled.

"Your Majesty, the main tomb has been repaired and the cinnabar has been filled with rivers. However, the side tombs and other palaces have not yet been repaired. Moreover, it cannot be completed in one month."

Fusu knew this would be the case.

In fact, in history, the renovation of Ying Zheng's tomb took longer than his reign.

"Prime Minister, what do you think?"

Feng Quji thought about it, the new emperor was someone who really cared about the people. In the past, the new emperor had always kept silent about the construction of the imperial mausoleum.

Now that His Majesty has gone, he has no control over matters on the ground.

Therefore, Feng Quji boldly advocated:
"I believe that the late emperor's tomb must not be hastily decided. This matter of sealing the tomb can take more time, but it must be done properly without any omissions."

"How long does the prime minister think it will take?"

Fusu was kneeling at the front and could not get up, while the two people behind him were kneeling next to Fusu.

Facing the new emperor's questions, Feng Quji and Zhang Han looked at each other.

"I thought it would take a year."

Fusu asked Zhang Han again:

"Is one year more than enough?"

Zhang Han took the initiative and said:
"Your Majesty, I don't think it will take more than two years to complete."

Fusu frowned naturally after hearing this.

"For 70 prisoners, the cemetery has not yet been built, and it will take two full years for the tomb to be sealed."

"Your Majesty, please calm down, but even within the two-year period, there is a possibility that it will be overdue."

"Why is this?"

"Your Majesty, this mausoleum has been expanded three times. Each expansion meant starting over and consuming a lot of manpower and material resources. However, the latest design and construction of the main tomb began seven years ago, with a large amount of cinnabar injected into it. , and it consumes countless manpower. Moreover, the prisoners have worked hard for a long time and have become weak and old. Many of them are no longer suitable to work in the mausoleum."

Fusu frowned.

"Prime Minister—"

"The minister is here."

"I have not yet ascended the throne, but I have already drafted the first edict to be issued. I will amnesty the Lishan prisoners on the day when the tomb is sealed. What do you think?"

"I think your Majesty's move is very appropriate. Your Majesty has not yet ascended the throne, but he is thinking of showing mercy to the prisoners in Lishan Mountain. When the people of the world hear about it, they will surely sympathize with your Majesty."

"In that case. Zhang Han, I will give you one year to complete the repairs of the mausoleum. Tell those prisoners that they have contributed to the construction of the mausoleum, and I will reward them as appropriate. For the maids who have not been blessed by the late emperor, I will be here. Drive them out of the palace and let them get married; in addition, the craftsmen who have made merit in building the tomb will also receive preferential treatment."

He has not officially ascended the throne, so Fusu cannot call himself me yet.

After hearing this, Zhang Han frowned and said seriously:
"I thank Your Majesty on behalf of the 70 prisoners."

After Feng Quji listened, he felt that the emperor really had a problem.

Moreover, compared to the late emperor, Fusu had an advantage and had a reputation for benevolence and righteousness.

"The matter of sealing the tomb has been settled for the time being. In addition, when the late emperor was still alive, he made it clear that he would use pottery figurines instead of thousands of troops to accompany his majesty to sleep underground. Although the system of life and death has been abolished, my monarch He is the first emperor of all ages, the third emperor of virtue and virtue, and more meritorious than the five emperors. Being buried with thousands of troops will inevitably damage the vitality of the empire; but it is still necessary to be buried with nobles."

Feng Quji was naturally shocked when he heard this.

This honorable person must be buried alive, but alive.

"And among the buildings in Lishan, they are all descendants of the clans of the Six Kingdoms, and many of them are dissatisfied with Qin. For example, Han Cheng, the Korean prince, still dissatisfied with Qin after changing his surname."

Feng Quji was shocked when he heard this.

Even His Majesty the Emperor doesn't want to be cruel to people of the same ancestry and origin. I'm afraid it's inappropriate for Your Majesty to do this!
Fusu said again:

"After the Six Kingdoms, there are many people who are unwilling to submit to Qin. When my father was still alive, he patrolled the land of the Six Kingdoms in the east and encountered many assassinations. So far, no one has been arrested and brought to justice. I just succeeded to the throne now, and I want to use this The royal family of the six kings will be buried with my father later to give a warning to those who intend to cause trouble."

"Feng Quji—what do you think?"

It seems that His Majesty has already thought about these things. If he says something bad at this time, wouldn't he be doing something right with the prince?

And the new emperor obviously wanted to use this method to establish his authority in the world.

Show mercy to the criminals, and then use the killings to remind the royal families of the six kings.

In this case, Feng Quji had no choice but to follow the new emperor's ideas.

Feng Quji tremblingly said:
"What your Majesty said is true. After the Six Kingdoms, there are indeed people who have the intention of restoration. Now that your Majesty has just established, you really need to take action to show your ambition to the people of the world."

The people in the inner hall were chattering away, obviously discussing state affairs.

Meng Tian and Meng Yi are all waiting in the outer palace.

Meng Yi naturally had some thoughts on this matter.

Your Majesty has summoned Feng Quji, Wang Wu, and Zhang Han many times today, seemingly to discuss important matters, but he has not invited my brother in. Why is that?

Doesn't the new emperor know that the last person the former emperor summoned before his death was his brother?

The late emperor had a legacy, asking his brother Meng Tian to serve as the new emperor's minister.

Meng Tian has not thought about that place yet. What he wants is to let the young masters stay in Xianyang in the name of guarding the spirits and not be allowed to return to the frontier.

Meng Tian was afraid that Fusu might think of enfeoffment again.
