Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 500 God help me! (Please give me a monthly ticket recommendation ticket)

Fusu suddenly said seriously again:

"If we wait a little longer, I'm afraid this matter will be spread among the army. At that time, ministers like Dong Yi will also ask me how to deal with it, so that I can give them an explanation. In the end, this matter The thing is that some senior ministers of the royal family of the DPRK used the excuse to attack me because of the reform, and asked me to clear up the emperor. I know the pros and cons of this matter, but I can only fall into passivity. This is a lesson that I have been taught by the ministers. "

Shen Yu was taken aback when he heard that.

But he began to understand why a loyal minister like Meng Tian was deliberately ignored by the emperor, and why the prime minister let the emperor make his own choice, which one to choose between the civil and military officials and the head of Guizhou.

In fact, most people would choose the former, because all civil and military officials are powerful, and many veterans in the court are not allowed to call them by their surnames, because they have the royal surname Ying.This world is theirs.

It is definitely unscientific for one person to govern the world, and the political power can easily be overthrown.But if you have a group of people to help you govern the world together, then the power of the ruling class will grow and it will naturally be able to suppress the head of Guizhou.

This is the essence of the so-called aristocracy. The world is governed by one big family.

But Ying Zheng broke this situation and became the emperor of the world.The aristocratic system transformed into a bureaucratic system, and all major and minor affairs in the world were managed by him alone.

This seemed to be doomed to the failure of Emperor Qin, because he first gave up the nobility of the empire to help him rule together, that is, established the system of prefectures and counties; then he also gave up the common people of the empire.

Ideally, Ying Zheng wanted to make everyone in the world surrender to him, so he created China, where the world is one and everyone in the world belongs to the same country.But this ideal was based on Qin's annexation of the world through war. Therefore, if he could not handle the people's livelihood issues, the country would easily collapse.And psychologically, Ying Zheng just treats the people as social animals.

Destruction is always much easier than construction. Under the guidance of such a way of governing the country, everything is resolved with violence. The ethos of the entire empire is-kill if you refuse to obey.

Resentment was not only felt by the people of the Six Kingdoms, but the soldiers of the Qin Empire also felt the same. Over time, the elites of the empire also lived in fear of the rebellion of the common people, and the morale of the empire's army naturally changed drastically.

As a result, Ying Zheng lost two foundations of rule at the same time, the courtiers and the people.

If he lives longer, these problems will be exposed. First of all, the soldiers of Qin will not continue to support him, and the people of the world will not support him either.

His failure was doomed, but God favored him and allowed him to die before the empire collapsed in external form.

But Fusu, as a time traveler, should know that establishing a kingdom for all ages requires the efforts of many people, especially the efforts of future generations. The establishment of a relatively complete emperor system can help future generations avoid this problem.

Therefore, Fusu can only do two things to achieve himself. One is to build a prosperous age, benefiting the people of the time, and make the world return to the heart; , Let the people of Qin have a sense of family and country, and jointly forge the glory of the empire. The consciousness of the people is very important. From this, what he changed is not only the history of the Qin nation, but the history of the entire world.

But now, he has had such a difficult time in the first step, and not only that, his rule may be overthrown at any time. In other words, the emperor is dissatisfied by his ministers, and the throne can be replaced.

So Fusu felt chills on his back.

He naturally felt as if his fate was being pinched by the throat, and his back and neck were numb.

This matter, thinking about it, is extremely scary, thinking about it is terrifying!
"But Your Majesty also knows that by hiding it from the ministers in the army, once someone in the army gets the news from Xianyang City, there will be chaos in the army."

Shen Yu's reminder is naturally correct.

"Paper can't stop the anger, but I must not make this matter public now. I only regret that I only brought a few of you on this trip. If Zhang Cang is here, at least there will be someone around me who can help me come up with ideas."

Shen Yu looked ashamed and bowed:
"Your Majesty, it's all my fault for my incompetence."

At this moment, another person suddenly came outside the military tent.

"Report to Your Majesty, urgent report from the palace."

"What happened in the palace?"

"Your Majesty, I don't know this."

Shen Yu quickly took the memorial, then bowed and tiptoed and presented it to the emperor.

Shen Yu watched the haze on the emperor's face disappear.

"Your Majesty is looking happy. Could it be that there is room for maneuver in this matter?"

Fusu put away the memorial slips and the inner scroll of the silk book, and couldn't help but raise his lips slightly.

"I must thank the Queen after I return to the palace this time."

"Queen?"

Fusu threw the memorial to Shen Yu, who was kneeling.

It turned out that things were so serious that Feng Quji personally took Jiu Qing to capture Wang Wu.

But the queen of the empire personally came forward and took Wang Wu out of the hands of the prime minister, and then brought him back to the palace.That's why today's memorial was written.

It's just that the queen is now anxious to let the emperor decide the matter, because she cannot withstand the pressure of the ministers and the queen mother.

Not only that, the memorial also contains a copied silk book, which Feng Quji originally gave to Wang Wu.The memorial stated clearly that Wang Wu obtained the silk letter from the Prime Minister and then began to investigate the case.

Not only that, but the queen herself personally invited Si Kou Mengyi, Taixue Ling Zhang Cang and other high officials to help and hold the prime minister accountable.

Now the Prime Minister Feng Quji in Xianyang City has directly become the enemy of the military family and the Queen. There are constant turmoil in Xianyang City, but the Queen Mother stepped forward at this time to support Feng Quji and insist on continuing to investigate the treason case.

Shen Yuxi said:

"Your Majesty, the censor is still alive, so there is still a chance for everything."

All this still means that the emperor does not need to bow to his ministers on this matter, and the reform can continue.

"This matter has taken a huge turn. In this way, it has become a struggle between the prime minister and the censor. The twelve dukes have only been implicated. In this way, things have become much simpler. ”

"Your Majesty wants to punish Prime Minister Feng?"

"Grind the ink for me. I will draw up the memorial myself."

Fusu waved his sleeves.

"It can be said that God is helping me this time."

[The prime minister supervised Xianyang on my behalf, but he had a bad heart for selfishness, so he bewitched and encouraged Yu Shi Wang Wu with the case of treason, causing a catastrophe.I want to add more crimes, but the prime minister is old, and I can't bear to discuss this matter with the ministers.Now the position of prime minister is temporarily removed, and this matter will be discussed after I return to Xianyang City. 】

In this way, Fusu used ironclad evidence to make Feng Quji take the blame.However, because the Feng family was so powerful, the emperor could not directly order Feng Quji's execution. He could only use this method to make Feng Quji's wolf ambitions public.

Feng Quji just wanted to eliminate his political enemies, and at the same time, he also wanted to drag the powerful military families in the court into trouble. His intention was to be punished.

But in this matter, Fusu's mother-in-law did nothing wrong.The influence of the Feng family in the Qin State can be said to be very important, because easily deposing him for this matter will make the empire even more chaotic.

After all, Mi Lan was older, and she only considered this because Feng Quji was a veteran of three dynasties. Not only that, his family was also a prominent military family, and he was appointed prime minister by the late emperor himself.

In this way, there are three pillars in Xianyang City.

[I took pity on Zhao Ying, the fifth official, and promoted him to the rank of Zuo Shu Zhang.I originally wanted to pardon the twelve dukes and let them go home, but the case of treason must not be let go easily.I am asking Si Kou Mengyi to personally examine this case, and we must find out the spies in the court, so that the innocence of the twelve marquises can be restored. 】

Fusu never expected that in the end, it would be the two women he was guarding against who would help him solve the matter.

Although thousands of miles away, at this moment, Fusu only felt that his heart was hot.

It's thanks to common sense that things have room for change like they are today.

Fusu was naturally ecstatic, and he would definitely treat the queen well when he returned.

But before writing, Fusu sighed that he actually did Li Zhi once.

Fusu wrote another edict:
[I am away dealing with old Zhao affairs, and I am busy with official duties.However, the case of rebellion in Xianyang City is a serious matter and Xianyang must not be left without anyone to make the decision. Now I entrust the power to the Queen.All ministers obey the Queen's orders and regard the Queen's orders as my orders.Zhang Cang temporarily acts as the prime minister. 】

Only by handing over power to the queen can the reforms continue.

After writing this, the emperor pressed his national seal heavily on it.

This was the first time that Shen Yu saw His Majesty the Emperor being so diligent.

When Shen Yu went to seal the letter, he was naturally surprised to see the content.

"Your Majesty, does the Queen really understand political affairs? Why would you hand over power to the Queen? Moreover, although Taixue Ling is one of the nine ministers, it is just because of your promotion by Your Majesty. Let him act as the prime minister, and the ministers will obey him ?"

"Although the queen is young and has never asked about political affairs in these years, she is devoted to me. I trust Wang more than the one who lives in Gaoquan Palace. And I am worried that if I don't give the queen real power, she may not return it. Able to protect Wang Wu under the pressure of Gaoquan Palace."

Shen Yu thought to himself, isn't the person in Gaoquan Palace mentioned by the emperor the Queen Mother?
"As for Zhang Cang, he is Li Si's fellow disciple. Although he is young, I think he is far superior to these two. Because he is good at changing things and he is not a greedy person."

"Your Majesty - there is one more thing. Your Majesty knows that the Censor is loyal and considers your Majesty wholeheartedly, but doesn't Your Majesty intend to punish the Censor for this matter? All this happened because of the Censor. Could your Majesty please tell me a little bit? Punish the censor?"

Fusu took out the silk book and looked at the densely packed names on it.When Fusu saw the word Yao Jia, his eyebrows raised.

"Do you think Zhao Ying will rebel?"

Shen Yu shook his head.

"Doctor Zhao has always maintained himself as a gentleman and would not do such a thing."

"Then do you think Xun You is a trustworthy person?"

"Xun You is a native of Qi and a minister under the late emperor. Although he is not as high as Li Sixicai, he also comes from the Jixia Academy of Qi. He is also a member of the Legalist school of Qi. He is well versed in laws. He has always been very enthusiastic about Your Majesty's reform of Qin laws. Among the ministers, he is the most supportive of His Majesty."

"Then who do you think Sima Jing and Cao Xuan are?"

"They are all powerful military figures, but they uphold their character and will not betray easily."

"Then do you think Wang Yan will be a rebel?"

Shen Yu lowered his head and stopped talking.

"Where's Yao Jia?"

"I dare not speak."

"Then do you think there is anything wrong with Wang Wu, the censor, using the power given to him by me to investigate the case?"

Shen Yu was speechless when asked.

"Even you, the minister, can see this clearly. I want to give the ministers in the court more time so that they can figure out the whole thing. In fact, this matter is just the work of the prime minister. Wang Wu is just a victim. That’s right. And it’s because of me. It’s shameful for all the ministers to be blamed like this.”

In fact, the victim of this incident was none other than the emperor.

Those who planned this matter were making a fuss about the contradiction between the emperor who wanted reform and the military nobles who did not want reform.

No matter how Fusu makes a decision, it will inevitably cause some serious damage to Xianyang of the empire.

"I originally wanted to gain military power without losing any blood and completely solve the backlog of disasters accumulated by the previous dynasty. The country should put people's livelihood first, not farming and weaving, and the whole country should continue to wage wars. Can the people in such a country be happy? ? It’s simply ridiculous. How can a person who is full of resentment towards his own country be loyal to the empire? I think there should be people in the empire who have the foresight to support me in doing this."

"After all, to this day, I have not touched the interests of the Jun Gong Family Group. I have always been very patient with the people in the Jun Gong Family Group."

"But now, the prime minister couldn't hold back anymore. He was worried that after I dealt with the issue of military power, I would not take him seriously as a prime minister, so after thinking about it, he thought of a way to fight between the snipe and the clam, and the fisherman will benefit from it." .”

"This method is wonderful. It pushed me to the edge of the cliff. I have to jump even if I want to, and I have to jump if I don't want to."

Fusu said, murderous intention already arose in his heart.

"Feng Quji was bullying me when I was young and picked on me when I was at my weakest. But if I don't punish the Prime Minister who is bent on plotting behind my back all day long to make me hesitate in the face of reform, But to reprimand the honest and loyal Wang Wu, what kind of atmosphere will there be in the court?"

"If I want to rectify the government, I must first clear up the atmosphere in the government and the public. Let me give these people a good start."

Shen Yu repeatedly said:
"Your Majesty said it very well."

"Tell Dong Yi that I will start watching military exercises tomorrow. Ask him to prepare as soon as possible."

"only."

Shen Yu followed closely and walked out, but Fusu began to wonder if he had any interaction with Feng Quji, and he helped Feng Quji speak for him again and again today.

"Huo Cheng——"

Outside the big tent, Huo Cheng strode in immediately when he heard this.

"His Majesty--"

"Have the thousand elites I wanted to select previously been selected?"

"Reporting to your majesty, a thousand elites are ready. Just waiting for your majesty to take a look."

Although Fusu always felt at ease when Huo Cheng was doing things, Fusu still wanted to ask clearly.

"Selecting 30 elites from 1000 people, how refined can they be?"

"These people have all participated in wars. Some are masters at driving chariots, some are masters at archery, some are masters at swordsmanship, and some are so powerful that they can swing a sledgehammer that weighs a hundred catties."

(Can everyone chime in? I've been a bit busy with my papers and midterm exam week recently, and I'm finally done.)
