Great Qin had a prosperous age

Chapter 540: Something happy finally happened in the empire (please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)

Someone shivered;

The empire's military nobles have never been so desperate as tonight. This incident, which involved no bloodshed on either side, gave the empire's military nobles a profound understanding of the current general trend in the DPRK.

War has become a thing of the past, and culture and education are the mainstream of the new era.

As the two ministers and twelve dukes returned to their mansions, countless lights suddenly lit up in the west of Xianyang City, but the doors on the street were all tightly closed.

In the dead of night, a few dogs bark occasionally, and then the sound disappears into the fields further away, blending into the deathly silence.

Old things are passing away with the rolling eastward, and the city of Xianyang has become beyond recognition. The sun still rises, with rose-red dawn spreading in the sky, and golden sunshine covering the earth.

It was just dawn, and the voices of people were already heard on the banks of the Weishui River.

The gates of Xianyang City were opened at five o'clock, the woodcutter went out to chop wood, and the scouts sent urgent messages and fled.

There are six tall observation towers on the city wall of Xianyang City. The Imperial College is already open, and the sound of reading can be heard from time to time.

Gongzihui changed his usual style and put on plain dark dark clothes of soap color. He walked to his school building and found a brocade box on his desk.

The young man looked at it and naturally asked who sent it.

"Go back to me, sir, I don't know."

Confused, Hui opened it and saw that it turned out to be a piece of paper.

Waiting for a closer look, he saw that the black and white characters on the paper were exactly the "Five Worms" he had copied.

Hao sat down on the ground and felt dizzy for a long time.

I was born into an emperor's family. My grandfather was an unparalleled lord who was one of the three emperors of virtue and virtue, and more accomplished than the five emperors. My father is the current emperor, but I happen to be a concubine.

With the idea of ​​a king and father governing the world, when I grow up, my king and father will definitely grant me a land and let me manage a people. From the etiquette and law, there is no possibility for me to succeed to the throne of the emperor.

However, giving up is a very simple thing, but once you give up, there is nothing.

Gongzihui carefully put away the pieced papers. In front of everyone, he said nothing and just went to study by himself.

……

……

……

Xianyang, Huayang Palace.

Young Master Yao had already begun his cruel career as a prince, getting up before dawn every day to go hunting in the mountains and forests.In the past, Gongzi Yao and Gongzi Hao took the initiative to ask Ying to accompany him, but now Gongzi Yao has no peers of his own age.

The sun rises in Shanglin Garden, and golden light emerges from the deep shadows of the forest.

Yao took a bow and shot an arrow with all his strength, but looking at the lush mountain forest, he could not find his target.On the contrary, it was the surrounding mountains and rivers that made him feel depressed and breathless.

Now, Gongzi Yao couldn't run away even if he wanted to.

Everything he is learning now is to become a good emperor in the future.Judging from his father's reaction to him, he wasn't nearly enough.

The wheel of habit always likes to fall into a pit in the same place. Little did Gongzi Yao know that more than ten years ago, his father had faced the same valley and had the same confusion.

Those knowledge and ideas have no room for implementation in the face of reality.

Yao's status as the eldest son has a fatal flaw.He has all the advantages innately, which makes him unable to realize the complexity of human nature.Whether we can use advanced knowledge and ideas to solve practical problems must first recognize human nature and handle interpersonal relationships well.

If you cannot understand this, then the emperor will be no different from a fat lamb.

It was precisely after realizing this that Fusu decided to involve Yao in the struggle early.

In the struggle for power, if the successor fails to realize early on that interests are far greater than friendship, then he will definitely die miserably in the future, and his country will also suffer heavy losses from the power struggle.

Even if it's painful, Yao must be able to withstand it. If he can't bear such a test, then Fusu really has to consider replacing him.

No matter who you choose, it is for the sake of a bright future for the empire.

However, the emperor himself has to explore the art of emperors and keep pace with the times. There are very few ministers who can understand this art.

On the way to Zhangtai Hall, Fusu realized this problem.

The road of a king is inherently lonely, full of thorns, bloody, and invisible to the enemy.

Maybe what I want to arrange for Yao is not a perfect master, but a bloody lesson.

"Your Majesty, the young master is here to report——"

"read."

"Your Majesty, Shaofu Zhang Han has led the prisoners back to Xianyang. They will arrive in Xianyang at noon today."

"Finally home."

Shen Yu noticed from the beginning that the second generation had always cared about Zhang Han, the young master.

This time, Shaofu Zhang Han has made great achievements, and your Majesty will definitely reward him heavily.

When they arrived at Zhangtai, Ji Hao was already waiting at the entrance of the palace.

"How long will it take for the late emperor's mausoleum to be completed?"

"His Majesty……"

"What? But what happened to the imperial mausoleum?"

"The mausoleum is completed, and wood is needed. Although the burial chamber is completed, there are still tomb passages and tomb chambers that need to be taken care of to prevent people with ulterior motives from knowing the location of the imperial mausoleum. So..."

"So what?"

"The imperial mausoleum cannot be completed by the end of this year..."

Fusu stopped.

"Do you know how much manpower and material resources were spent on the construction of the imperial mausoleum? For this mausoleum, the empire pays tens of thousands of people every year, and requires a lot of manpower. These people should have been able to make a living by farming at home, but now they need to be supported by the national treasury."

This consumes too much, and it is just to satisfy that person's wish in life!

It's something meaningless to the country at all.

"I asked Li Xin to defend me against the Xiongnu, and Li Xin asked me to give him 50 stones of food and grass, and I still have to spend my energy on this matter. So do you know why I am in a hurry to promote you as Minister of the Ministry of Industry? Because I I need someone else to dig out the imperial tomb as quickly as possible!"

The second patted the armrest of the back seat.

"Your Majesty, calm down!"

"The late emperor's old ministers are still here. They have nothing to do but eat twelve hours a day. They look at the imperial mausoleum every day, as if they want to use the matter of the imperial mausoleum to attack me. In order to implement the policy of light corvee and low tax, and rest with the people , you have to make trade-offs on other things.”

"I understand what your Majesty means. I will definitely complete the imperial mausoleum at the minimum cost, and at the same time, I will make the old ministers obey me."

"You were once the general's young master, and later you entered the court. Although you are not as good as a great official like Zheng Guo, I believe you will not disappoint me in completing the imperial mausoleum. The completion of the late emperor's work must finally come to an end. , this mausoleum, which has been built for more than 30 years, has not yet been completed. But the people of the world are listening and watching, and the white officials in the DPRK are also listening and watching. I hope this matter can be settled as soon as possible. "

"I gave Zhang Han a two-year deadline, but Zhang Han didn't follow the engineering drawings when he took action. He only sealed the main tomb chamber for so long. Someone told me that it would take another two years for the tomb to be completed, but it has been inconsistent for a long time. Tomb, how can the late emperor rest in peace?"

"Your Majesty, it is true that the mausoleum designed by the Prime Minister and others was too grand. This imperial mausoleum is simply unprecedented, or even unprecedented."

After hearing this, Fusu naturally felt his head hurt.

This is why the First Emperor regarded the world as his own harm, and used the whole country to build a tomb for himself...

Even if you die, your name will last forever.

"But your Majesty, don't worry. I will definitely have the mausoleum completed before the end of the year, and the nine ministers in the court will be satisfied with it."

"The late emperor's mausoleum has not been completed, but the young master came to urge me to mobilize people as soon as possible to build the imperial mausoleum a few months ago."

"His Majesty……"

Ji Hao looked embarrassed.

"What's so embarrassing about this? Sooner or later, my soul will return to the land. And after the new king ascends the throne, the construction of the mausoleum must be started immediately. This has been the rule throughout the ages. I have decided to leave the address of this mausoleum to you to choose for me. "

"only!"

"I have one more thing to leave to you."

The main hall was very deserted, and the palace guests were dismissed in advance by the emperor.

"Keep an eye on the family that has made great military achievements for me. They will definitely not let it go without me excepting my position as the Twelve Dukes."

Ji Hao looked panicked.

"Your Majesty, there are thousands of military clans in Xianyang City, and there is only one minister."

"You are only one person, but you were once the young master and in charge of the five schools. Under these five schools, there are also prisoners and workers. In the house of Zhongming Dingshi, it is best to build a tall mansion to show its prestige. They all I have used craftsmen before. I believe that you can follow the clues, find these people, and let them do things for me."

"only!"

Ji Hao accepted the order and walked out with a heavy heart.

Fusu looked at the twelve golden men and felt heavy in his heart.

How could a clan with thousands of military achievements be easily shaken by Fusu.

While you obviously want to give them benefits, you must also be careful secretly.Who knows that these aristocratic families are obviously bowing their heads to Fusu, but secretly they are not thinking of joining forces to force me.

Fusu returned to the case and began to deal with the backlog of government affairs that had become covered with a thick layer of dust.

What comforted Fusu was that these days, there were more local talents recommended by local officials.This shows that he is still quite prestigious in the world.

When Fusu saw it, he was naturally overjoyed. Fusu had read the names of all the recommenders and approved them one by one.

"Something happy has finally happened in my empire."

Apart from these, the others are all criminal cases.

Fusu summoned Yousi and asked about the situation before giving his approval.

But at this moment, someone suddenly came outside the palace.

"Your Majesty, the Prime Minister's Mansion came here to send a message, saying that the Prime Minister is sick."

"He is going against me."

Shen Yu reminded the emperor:

"Your Majesty, do you want to visit the Prime Minister?"

"I am busy with official duties and have no time. You go and deliver some medicines to the Prime Minister on my behalf. In addition, bring the best doctors in the palace to see the Prime Minister in person."

"only."

"My political affairs hall cannot be delayed. If the Prime Minister cannot get up, then leave it to the Imperial Academy to handle it."

"Your Majesty will convey your Majesty's wishes to the Prime Minister."

"Where is Feng Changan?"

"Your Majesty, your servant is at the Chancellor's desk at this time."

"Find someone to approach him quietly and keep an eye on him. No matter where he is, I must know his movements."
