Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 442: Keep it secret (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

Li Xin was not pretending, he really believed that the new emperor was not as good as the First Emperor. Not to mention young and energetic, he was much stupider than he was back then.

Not only that, Li Xin thought that now he, Li Xin, and His Majesty the Emperor were on the same side.

The enemy of your enemy is your ally. This law applies in any environment, especially in politics.

Therefore, Marquis Yongwu believed in the second generation easily, but how could the second Qin Emperor, who successfully succeeded to the throne, be so simple-minded.

Fusu doesn't do meaningless things.

He would not hastily choose a young general with outstanding merits and let him lead an army against the Huns.

First, war requires a large amount of national power.Meng Tian's 30-strong army was guarding the border and had to build Chi Road because of the need for heavy supplies.

But if it is Li Xin, he has always fought with light cavalry and is a very good person who enjoys great achievements. He should choose to fight while grabbing.

At least for now, the quantity of Cointreau he needs is 30 less than Meng Tian's.

Qin's army has a very strict internal hierarchy, and the treatment enjoyed by different ranks can be said to be very different.

This is the reason why the military merit system continues to rebel against the Qin State. The rulers of this country do not need war, but most of the country's common people who are in the army need military merit to improve their poor living conditions.

Although the military merit system has been abolished and a large number of troops have been dispersed, what cannot be ignored is that the remaining troops were originally those with higher status and stronger combat capabilities.

Behind the words "Daqin Elite" can mean a lot. Food and grass need not only to be supplied, but also to be of high quality. As for those clothing grades and the like.

Ying Zheng loves these elites, and Da Qin Ruishi is his treasure.

Therefore, sometimes harsh governance is unavoidable, in order to provide the best treatment for the common people like the Great Qin Ruins.

Just think about it, if we hadn't gone to great lengths to abolish the damn military merit system, one million Qin troops would have been a huge number, not counting the strength of the Six Nations' armies that had been reorganized and merged after the Six Nations were conquered.

Such huge expenditures on military support will naturally deplete national strength.

The Qin State raised a large number of soldiers, and the result was that the people all over the world paid the bill, and high taxes were completely natural.

Now it seems that Qin mainly supports these 30 troops.

Fusu must ensure that this elite group is his own.

As for the other 20 naval troops, their preparation and establishment cost a huge amount of financial resources. Except for this part, they are scattered military forces used for border suppression.The total number of tens of thousands of Qin soldiers has exceeded 30, but in general, when they go to that place to guard the border, their treatment will naturally not be higher than that of the Qin warriors.

After all, Marquis Yongwu's choice is directly related to how his army is deployed.

Historically, when Qin II succeeded to the throne, Qin's army was in all directions.

Fusu is not Hu Hai, but he has not forgotten that he will now be the second Qin in the history books.

Fusu needs to let the whole world know that the army is in his hands.

The second reason for supporting Li Xin is that Meng Tian has become the Wang Jian he used to be, and Fu Su needs to hang a sword over his head.

It's a pity that for Fusu, Li Xin cannot become Mengtian in the future.

Fusu took out the biggest and reddest carrot that Li Xin had ever seen, and Li Xin, the donkey, naturally followed him.

Shen Yu only felt that the emperor had gone too far.

"Your Majesty, you promised to give Marquis Yongwu the position of captain of the army, are you not afraid that he will speak out?"

Fusu was being dressed by eunuchs in the middle of the process.

"There are tens of thousands of mouths in this palace. Even if Li Xin doesn't tell anyone, the people in the palace will. Do you think so?"

As soon as Fusu said these words, those who had served the late emperor were already familiar with this kind of scene, and they quickly took the lead and knelt on the ground.

"The ministers saw nothing and heard nothing today."

"What if someone asks?"

Fusu raised his eyebrows.

Under the dim light, the young emperor's figure was slender, and the shadow of the lamp was stretched extremely long.

No one dared to answer yet.

"When the late emperor was alive, there were rules according to the late emperor. The reason why I use you is because I know that you are all capable servants serving the late emperor."

"The late emperor passed away, but this does not mean that this palace has no master. I am the master."

"The death of the late emperor does not mean that the rules established by the late emperor are no longer there. I have made it clear today that if any more news from the palace reaches the ears of the courtiers, I will exterminate the three clans."

The voice of these words was low, and there was still some fatigue, but the punishment of exterminating the three clans had already made these servants tremble.

Shen Yu should not have stayed in the palace. After all, he was promoted to minister, but he was allowed to live in Xianyang Palace by the emperor.

Why didn't Shen Yu think too much? The emperor was afraid that he would live outside the palace and leak the things inside the palace.

After seeing this scene today, my heart naturally shrank suddenly.

After Fusu finished changing his clothes, only Fusu and Shen Yu were left in the palace, and Shen Yu felt even more frightened.

Fusu was sitting on the couch. The moonlight was too bright today, and a silver glow shined through the window into the hall.

Before Fusu could take the initiative to speak, Shen Yu trotted forward and bowed to apologize.

"Your Majesty, you are just a humble minister who spoke rashly. Please punish me."

"You are my servant. You should always remember that you are different from the prime minister, but your status is only below me."

After hearing this, Shen Yu's heart suddenly rose in his throat.

At first, he just wanted to make a good living and not be bullied, but he didn't want to be inferior to one person or superior to ten thousand people.

"Confidentiality is what everyone at the Chancellery should do. If you can't do it, then the people under you will definitely not be able to do it either."

After hearing this, Shen Yu's scalp naturally started to feel numb.

Although he was a minister, Shen Yu just thought that he had changed his position and was not much touched in his heart.

Shen Yu never expected that the emperor would say such a thing.

"Your Majesty doesn't know that His Majesty is so important to your ministers."

"Then from today on, you should know what this minister does. Moreover, when you meet the ministers in the future, you will use the minister to call yourself a minister. There is no need to call yourself a minister."

"Not only do you need to know your status, but the courtiers should also understand it."

After hearing this, Shen Yu felt that he suddenly jumped from the bottom of the valley to the ground and then directly rose to the clouds ten thousand feet high.

Don't forget, most of the ministers in the palace come from criminal backgrounds.

Such a change of status is from dirty mud to pure white clouds high above.

For a moment, Shen Yu also began to feel light on his feet.

Shen Yu was so excited that he finally broke into a sweat.

"I would like to thank your Majesty for your appreciation. But your Majesty, please rest assured that no matter how others look up to me, I will always be a subordinate in front of Your Majesty."

Fusu smiled gratifiedly.

"A good bird chooses a tree to roost in. I will reuse those who want to be loyal to me. I will continue to recruit trustworthy people to join the Secretariat. When the time comes, these people will all be suppressed by you. In the future, you will wear a sword here. When walking in the palace, I won’t choose which sword to wear with you. Whatever you like, just go to the treasury to get it."

After hearing this, Shen Yu woke up from his trance and realized that all this was real and not a dream.

Shen Yu naturally thanked the second generation again.

But that incident still made Shen Yu very worried.

"His Majesty the Emperor gave Marquis Yongwu the position of Captain of the Army Guard as a promise today. Aren't you afraid that he will cause trouble? In my humble opinion, I personally believe that Marquis Yongwu is not worthy of this position."

"I have already said it before. The post of Captain must be filled by Meng Tian now. If it is really necessary to replace him, I have already decided on the candidate. But the reason why I chose Li Xin is because I have another worry."

"What I'm afraid of is that Li Xin will rebel and take over the mountain as king!"

"Although the soldiers under the late emperor are not all self-respecting soldiers, they have already become full-fledged and can no longer hold back."

"The reason why they have not come to force me to reward them together is because they sympathize with me for the sake of the late emperor and want to watch the fire from the other side to see how I and the captain will fight. When we go to court tomorrow morning, everything will be settled. We will see each other."
