Chapter 689: Carnivores are mean? (Please give me a monthly recommendation ticket!)
In the first ten days of the first month of the third year of the Second World War, there was heavy snowfall in Handan County.The dilapidated walls outside the city were pushed to the ground and covered with ice and snow, but the willow trees beside them were still there, with red streamers tied on them, and the round square-hole coins were jingling in the cold wind.

Looking up at the tower, there are men in their 20s and 30s everywhere in the streets and alleys. They have no thick clothes to wear on a snowy day, so they can only wear thin clothes and hide in dog holes.

Before 2000, there were not so many brick walls. Residents' homes were mostly made of earth, grass and mud.The so-called city wall is an earthen wall with stones added to make the wall stronger.The outer walls of residents' homes are four feet thick.

The rise and fall of the country was accompanied by the rise and fall of the family. Many yards were empty and precious objects were taken away, leaving only these thick earthen walls.

Those homeless people do not have as much work to do in winter as they do in spring and summer, so they can only crowd together under this thick wall and dig a big hole to take shelter from the wind.

There were refugees everywhere. Zhao Wan, the governor of Handan County, was wearing an expensive fox fur coat and stood on the city wall in the wind and snow, looking at them with his brows furrowed.

By his side, Liu Kai was naturally accompanying him.

"My lord, this is not a long-term solution. As time goes by, there will definitely be trouble in Handan."

Zhao Wan's face suddenly turned ferocious, like a wild wolf in the forest.He twirled his beard on both sides and said with suppressed anger:
"Since I came to Handan, there have been riots in this city almost every month. Since His Majesty came here once, the city has been quiet for half a year, and I feel relaxed. But now someone is preparing to cause trouble again. I am really I don’t know what to do with these people.”

After that, the two drove back to the mansion.

When they got indoors, the heat was rising, the maid served hot soup and wine, and the two sat facing each other in the snow.

Liu Kaidao:
"These new people who have poured into the city have no land and no place to live. If they stay here, they will be a huge disaster."

"But they can't be allowed to flow out. Now Mengshi is in power, and their aides are everywhere, waiting to picket the faults of us Qin officials. If the refugees flow out and the Mengshi knows, Meng Tian will definitely report to them. II.”

"Then let's report it to Your Majesty. Although we say that we are deprived of the emperor's salary and worry about the emperor, it is difficult to solve such matters even if we try hard. Furthermore, now that the emperor Yang Mu is stationed in the six counties of Guandong, his troops There are so many people. If he saw this scene and reported it to His Majesty in advance, Your Majesty would definitely accuse us of dereliction of duty."

Zhao Wan stroked his beard and said meaningfully:

"It's not like there's no solution."

"I wonder what the Duke has in mind?"

"This disaster started because of the Qin State, and now it is still up to the Qin State to quell it. The Qin State attacked the Zhao State in order to occupy the Zhao State's cities and land. As soon as I entered Handan County, I divided the fields for the brothers. Otherwise, How can there be Qin people in Handan County to obey me? You and I have already died!"

"But if we don't allocate land to the soldiers of the Qin State, how can the soldiers settle down in the army? But after I divided the land with the Qin people, the Zhao people hated the Qin people. They executed the leader of the Zhao clan, It can only let Zhao Guodu see His Majesty's thunderous methods, but this cannot fundamentally solve the problem of these refugees. Now that so many refugees are pouring into the city all at once, it can be seen that it is premeditated. If Zhao Xie dies, there will be more There is a second Zhao Xie."

"The common people are shallow and ignorant and cannot see the benefits brought by the unification of the world. They just hold a grudge against Qin for small interests. Now it seems that if we want to solve this contradiction, we still have to start with the land issue. Since now Zhao We are also Qin people, so why don’t we just redivide the land of Zhao State and put an end to this!”

Liu Kai couldn't help but be excited after hearing this. The cold wind was so strong that Liu Kai turned blue in the face.

"The county prince has done this, which is really a blessing to everyone. But this matter is not easy to handle. This is to reorganize the household registration land, which will involve a lot of people. But I see the county He looks like a man, but he is planning this matter."

"I decided to go to see His Majesty in person. It's best to get a result before the spring plowing. Otherwise, the entire Handan County will be bloodied again."

"If Qin and Zhao go to war, only Zhao people will die. The Duke really regards the Zhao people as Qin people. All Qin officials in the world should follow the example of the Duke."

"The world is one family. The late emperor created an immortal legacy, and I should protect this legacy. Handan County is the heart of the Zhao Kingdom, and it must not be corrupted from me."

"In that case, the Duke will report this matter to His Majesty as soon as possible. But I don't know when we will set off?"

"Leave the day after tomorrow."

"I heard something in the past few days. It was about His Majesty's appointment as prime minister."

"Say it."

"On the first day of the Lunar New Year, the ministers advised your Majesty to appoint the prime minister, but your Majesty actually chose Xun Qing's grandson."

"Xunqing's grandson?"

"Exactly."

"Xun Qing is naturally an outstanding person, but his grandson has long since fallen into decline in the countryside and is just a common man. How can he be the prime minister of our Qin country?"

"I don't know. They say that the atmosphere in Xianyang City has changed now, but we have no chance to see it. I don't think the new emperor is necessarily worse than the previous emperor. At least after the new emperor succeeds to the throne, there are fewer Qin officials who lie and conceal the truth. This is what he did Things are much more reliable, and there are fewer people in the world complaining about unification."

"You should only say this in front of me, and don't mention it in front of outsiders."

Liu Kai sighed helplessly.

"The main thing is that when the late emperor visited the way of immortality and seeking immortality, it really chilled the hearts of the Qin officials who were waiting outside."

"The emperor system is indeed the first of its kind, and it does have many shortcomings. I think His Majesty established enfeoffment and established the Guanzhong standard system. He had the intention of reforming the system, but basically he still changed the soup without changing the medicine. All major issues in the world are decided by one person. , if there is even the slightest mistake, the world will be in danger."

Liu Kai's eyes brightened after hearing this.

"Does the Duke want to give His Majesty some advice on this matter?"

"Before Cao GUI left, his fellow villagers said, 'Meat-eaters can't plan far.' GUI said: 'Meat-eaters are despicable and cannot plan far.' ". Do I really have to wait until people like Cao GUI come forward before I say it?"

"The Duke must be careful what he says. Don't offend His Majesty."

In the middle of the first lunar month, the princess in Xianyang City got married, and red streamers were flying up and down the city.

Xianyang Palace, Zhangtai.

Princess Yaoman's heart was filled with sadness. She was now a political tool, serving as a rope between the boat of Jingchu and the shore of Guanzhong.

Although it was her wedding day, there was no joy on her face.

(Is it easy for me? I, watch twice a day, and ask others to ask for concubines and eunuchs.)
