Da Qin: Rebuked the dissatisfied ministers, held the sword towards the emperor at the beginning

Chapter 124 Exposed! !Assassin’s madman…

"Political dynasty, military colonization, economic state ownership, corvée assessment, law is military law, culture depends on faith, even using the name of the God-Emperor."

Yin Lie didn't argue with Tu Ju, he directly concluded for the latter.

Simultaneously.

Yin Lie continued: "Regarding the Qinzhidao, my original idea was to mainly develop the economy. If you want to be rich, build the road first. As long as the Qinzhidao is successfully built and connected in all directions, Guanzhong and the Central Plains will be able to transform from trade, transportation and economic exchanges." Much closer."

"But if we completely follow your policy of dominating the Qin Dynasty, the Qin Zhidao must have only two functions. First, it is to transport military supplies. Second, the army can pass through the Qin Zhidao at any time to quickly suppress every rebellion in the Central Plains."

"Qin Zhidao, the Yellow River, the Yangtze River...all will become like the Great Wall, [-]% military..."

……

no doubt.

The purpose of the Great Wall is definitely to guard the border. It has no other purpose than military use.

At most, it can be turned into a cultural relic label in a few thousand years, and the tourism industry can be developed by the way.

But for now.

The Great Wall is only for military purposes, but in Yin Lie's opinion, the importance of the Qin Strait Road, the Yellow River, and the Yangtze River can be split [-]-[-] between military and economic and trade purposes.

Especially the Yangtze River...

Throughout the dynasties, relatively mature commercial and trade clusters were bound to develop along the Yangtze River.

Even according to Yin Lie's ideas.

In the future, Great Qin could even try to promote urbanization with both sides of the Yangtze River as the core, and build all those adobe and thatched houses into cities and towns.

That is to say: use water transportation to drive the commercial economy, and then use the economy to drive the urbanization on both sides of the Taiwan Strait. Then we can lay out the spread of culture and the improvement of politics and the legal system.

After all, only when there is food, drink, and business to do can culture truly flourish.

Just like the state of Qi...

Why is the Confucian Little Sage Village located in Linzi, Qi State?
Notice!

The Tian family is on behalf of Qi, and everyone in the world knows it!
This kind of usurpation of the throne and disloyalty!

It should have been met with crazy resistance from Confucians.

After all, Confucianism values ​​loyalty and filial piety most.

As a result, you, the Tian family, took over the magpie's nest and drove the original Jiang family of Qi to the island, where they starved to death.

No matter what the reason.

These are extremely bad acts of disloyalty and disloyalty!

how...

After Tian came to power, he quickly joined forces with the three dynasties of Wei, Zhao, and Han, which were divided into Jin, to force Emperor Zhou to issue a statement publicly recognizing the legal legitimacy of their throne.

Simultaneously.

Taking advantage of the open economy in Qi, the Tian family was really able to spend money on Confucian scholars.

As long as you have some knowledge, as long as you arrive in Qi State, the official will pay you money according to your reputation.

The more famous you become!

The more money he has, the more he becomes an official.

This perfectly conforms to the Confucian scholars' ideal world in which the book has its own golden house and the book has its own beauty like jade.

therefore.

A developed and open economy is the underlying foundation for cultural prosperity.

As a result, Tu Ju wanted to suppress the commercial economy and purely engage in the religious economy of the God-Emperor Faith Clan.

In fact.

Why is China godless?

In fact, there are reasons.

After the Spring and Autumn Period, pure religious belief in gods has become difficult to tolerate in China.

“There’s also the education aspect.”

Yin Lie asked with great interest: "Guowei, when it comes to education, I have to mention the imperial examination system that I created... I think Laiyou will definitely turn the Baijia Literary Examination into a direct examination on this basis. Let’s take the martial arts test, right?”

Yin Lie proposed the imperial examination system, but in fact the real purpose was to pave the way for the future imperial examination system.

That is to say, let Da Qin fundamentally change from military to literary.

At the same time, class circulation from the bottom to the top is taken into account.

To put it bluntly, it means replacing the military title system.

wrong.

It can't be said to be a replacement...

Anyway, the imperial examination is used when governing the world.

There is no inherent contradiction between the implementation of the military title system and the implementation of the military merit title system during wartime.

But if we do it like Tu Ju did...

Then Da Qin must have taken the lead in the direction of classical militarism.

Even education has become a martial arts test...

This time!

"Yes, a martial arts test is required!"

Tu Ju said excitedly: "Qin Yucheng, your imperial examination system is very suitable for the vassal system, but you ignore the martial arts examination. This is where chaos must be brought to order, and it is also the most important part of the national policy of dominating Qin!"

"..."

Yin Lie was speechless.

this moment.

He just felt a terrible headache.

Needless to say.

The civil and military factions in Guanzhong and the people in Guanzhong will definitely support Tu Ju's martial arts examination.

Because Guanzhong, from top to bottom, is extremely repulsive to the so-called civil affairs, they are warlike at heart!
The Qin Dynasty was established in Guanzhong.Build a country with force again!

The martial arts test will be held again...

It's a matter of course!

There is nothing wrong with it from the surface.

But according to Yin Lie's perspective as a future traveler... Da Qin is completely hopeless.

on the throne.

Ying Zheng took a deep breath and said: "Political chronology, military colonization, economic state-owned, corvee assessment, law is military law, cultural god-emperor belief, all water, land and dragon veins are used for military purposes, education examinations are changed to military examinations... Tu Ju, this Is this the Ba Qin in your heart!?"

Ying Zheng listened from beginning to end.

He understands.

Today he had to make a choice between Yin Lie and Guo Wei Tu Ju.

The policies pursued by the two men are completely opposite!
If you choose one.

Then the other person... will definitely die.

This is a complete death from the perspective of soul ambition, and has little to do with whether the body is destroyed or not.

"Look at Qin Qing again..."

Ying Zheng looked at Yin Lie and said: "At the political level, the migration system is adopted, and then the system of pure officials and corrupt officials is used to achieve preliminary political integration. At the same time, it can also solve the serious shortage of officials at the bottom of Da Qin."

"The disadvantage is that it needs to harm the interests of the old Qin people in Guanzhong in order to benefit the enemies and people of the Central Plains. This will in turn cause some resentment in the hearts of the people of Guanzhong!"

"At the military level, Qin Qing pursued the principle of elite troops in the Northern Expedition, and he also planned the Southern Expedition slowly."

"Economically, Qin Qing wants to achieve great development through the Dragon Vein of Water and Land Transportation."

"The land system binds corvee labor, benefits the people at the bottom of Kyushu, and will gradually reduce the time limit for corvee labor in the future."

"The law corresponds to the increase in land and population, which requires increased flexibility and the reduction of corporal punishment."

"Culture takes into account hundreds of schools of thought, and education continues to move in the direction of the National Literary Examination."

"Qin Qing...Have I comprehensively summarized the policies in your mind?"

……

Today, Ying Zheng met and talked with Yin Lie in advance early in the morning.

There were also many heart-to-heart discussions between the monarch and his ministers.

Let’s start with current policies and then talk about changes in national conditions and situations in the future.

Ying Zheng was shocked by Yin Lie's many thoughts, and could even be said to be amazed...

He believes that Yin Lie's plan is the real theory of governing the world!

This [Essay on World Governance] should be famous throughout the ages!
Praise for all eternity!

at the same time……

Then turn around and look at Tu Ju’s plan!
Ying Zheng actually struggled with this.

once Upon a time.

He is still a young King of Qin...

His heart is for domination!

Never look back!

however.

This is a moment.

When Ying Zheng became the emperor of Kyushu.

He just found out...

If you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight!
The name of the First Emperor was like a heavy burden, which weighed down Ying Zheng and kept him sleepless at night.Only during the shaky ride of the East Patrol, Ying Zheng could get a moment of rest.

This is one of the reasons why Ying Zheng likes the Eastern Tour very much.

of course!

The Six Patrols of the World were initially formulated mainly to frighten Jiuzhou Xiaoxiao.

However, it also resulted in extravagant expenses for the eastern patrol and made people's livelihood difficult.

In the middle of the hall.

"Your Majesty is wise."

Yin Lie bowed his hands.

About [-]% to [-]% of his reform ideas and measures have been approved.

What remains is detailed official reform, such as establishing a cabinet system and so on.

There is also the economic aspect, issuing banknotes, establishing banks, etc.

And finally Taoist thought...

Interpret the Tao Te Ching!
Yin Lie thinks that after he defeats Guo Wei Tuju, he will inevitably have to face Wei Liaozi...

And he wants to conquer the former Great Qin Imperial Master!

There is only one way!
That is to compete with each other's understanding of [Tao]!

correct.

There is also the first female physiognomist in the Qin Dynasty: Xu Fu, a Taoist elder, who will inevitably run into him in the future.

the reason is simple.

Xu Fu's existence seriously threatened the Yin Yang family, and naturally it also shook Yin Lie's political foundation.

This is something Yin Lie cannot tolerate!
"His Majesty."

Tu Ju thought for a while and then began to make the final effort: "I know that forcing your Majesty to do something with destiny is an unforgivable death penalty. I don't ask for your majesty's pardon, but I only want to imitate Lord Shang... People die and politics survive." ! I hope your Majesty will learn from it!"

Tu Ju was not afraid of death and was very ambitious. He always wanted to imitate Lord Shang!
This pinnacle ancestor of Legalism!
Tu Ju vowed to follow him to the death!

Yin Lie said...

Apart from sighing, he really didn't know what to say.

Upon seeing this, Ying Zheng said: "Qin Qing, at this moment, if you have anything to say, you can speak out."

Now that everything has been said today.

Then stop grinding and chirping.

Wouldn't it be better to simply express everything that's on your mind?
"Yes, Your Majesty."

Yin Lie bowed his hands and saluted, then he looked sideways at Tu Ju beside him and said, "Guowei, you imitate Lord Shang and have a will that is not afraid of life and death. I admire you very much!"

"But I also want you to have a clear look at what the Qin Dynasty was like during the Qin Xiaogong period where Lord Shang lived?"

"The King of Wei can rely on the country's wealthy merchants and financial resources to buy out the last straw of Qin...Guanzhong is really too poor, and there are foreign enemies around!"

"Not only the three Jin Dynasties in the Central Plains are watching with eager eyes, but the foreign races in the northwest also want to get a share of the Qin Kingdom's demise!"

"At that time, if the Qin Dynasty did not change the law, it would only lead to death!"

"Therefore, extraordinary methods should be used in extraordinary times. No matter how extreme the reform method Shang Jun chooses, as long as the effect is immediate, it is feasible."

……

Yin Lie had previously described Lord Shang's arrogance.

But he never mentioned that there was anything wrong with Shang Jun's reform at that time!
Put aside time to talk about policy.

That's all nonsense!
Lord Shang's contribution to the Qin Dynasty was his ability to stabilize the sea, and there is no doubt about it.

"Looking at the present day, we, the Qin Dynasty, have unified the world, and all the barbarians around us are frightened by the power of the Qin army!"

Yin Lie said in a deep voice: "At this time, why should we imitate Shang Jun and carry out extremely overbearing reform measures? There is no reason at all!"

Yin Lie was really tired of talking to Tu Ju!

The in-depth conversation between the two was essentially like playing the piano to a cow.

Tu Ju has practiced "Extreme Dominance" throughout his life, and he will never bow his head and admit his mistakes even if he dies.

That is: this is not a matter of debate and persuasion.

Sudden.

"Qin Yucheng!"

Tu Ju shouted lowly and was about to retort...

next moment!
"enough!"

Ying Zheng directly stopped this meaningless quarrel.

He has already made a complete summary of the core policies of both of them.

To put it bluntly, it’s all about civility and martial arts!
One king and one tyrant!
The difference is that Yin Lie's king... takes care of the hegemony at the same time and does not completely give up his dominance.

But Tu Ju wants to completely conquer the King of Destruction!
And there is...

Their attitudes towards the Central Plains.

Yin Lie's various policies are all aimed at promoting connection and integration.

Tu Ju is a military colonizer...

Anyway, they are incompatible with each other!

If the two of them were allowed to quarrel as much as they wanted, they would probably have their own reasons for quarreling for ten years.

at last.

Ying Zheng began to conclude: "When I was young, I did think that as long as I conquered the Central Plains, I would definitely carry out military colonization. With the people and material resources of the Central Plains, I would continue to support the war wheel of our Great Qin, rolling towards forward!"

"The ultimate domineering, purely based on Guanzhong!"

"This is indeed a very simple and hearty way of ruling. There are not so many twists and turns. It is nothing more than focusing on law, agriculture, and the army... and then killing people!"

……

Such a thing as murder.

For the current First Emperor, it really couldn't be simpler.

When the emperor got angry, he lay down millions of corpses and bleed for thousands of miles!

But from very early on...

Ying Zheng had already realized that simple killing would not solve the problem.

"Qin Qing mentioned a conclusion that impressed me deeply."

Ying Zheng thought for a while and continued: "Because of the existence of the military merit and title system, Da Qin can only continue to launch foreign wars, first the Northern Expedition, and then the Southern Expedition, just to meet the domestic military industry demand and production capacity."

Ying Zheng did not know what military production capacity meant before.

But later combined with Yin Lie's various statements.

He understood it naturally.

"However, the two-front battle of the Southern and Northern Expeditions will definitely require massive logistics and military resources!"

Ying Zheng continued: "To put it bluntly, we are constantly increasing taxes. But for every [-]% increase in taxes, we need to increase the corresponding number of Qin officials to calm down the chaos caused by heavy taxes!"

"The result is that in the 36 counties of Kyushu, the number of Qin officials will continue to double...The more Qin officials there will be, the more the court will spend on salaries, and the more taxes will be heavier."

"And the frontline military supplies for the Southern and Northern Expeditions cannot be reduced. In the end, they will inevitably lead to the complete collapse of the empire, and the whole world will attack Qin!"

"I think this conclusion is quite correct!"

"After all, the Central Plains has a population of about 2000 million... We, the Qin Dynasty, suddenly want to rule a population three times that of Guanzhong. We must take a long-term approach. Massacre alone will not work!"

……

That's all!
Ying Zheng is equivalent to making his own choice!

He abandoned the Three Dukes and Guowei who had accompanied him all the way, and firmly chose Yin Lie...

"His Majesty!"

When Tu Ju heard this, he was a little panicked and said: "Qin Lie's words are just assumptions. In fact, if we attack the northern border and Baiyue, we will definitely be able to win quickly..."

"Inevitable? Lieutenant Guo, are you sure?"

Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows and said: "The grassland in the north is vast, and we have been dealing with nomadic barbarians all year round. You should know very well that if the Xiongnu, Donghu and Dayue clan don't fight a decisive battle with us... the war will not be completed. One battle, let alone a quick victory?"

"As for the terrain of Baiyue Land, it goes without saying..."

"Tu Ju, you can make such fallacies casually in the military field, which really disappoints me!"

……

Obviously.

Tu Ju was really panicked.

Death is not terrible.

The terrible thing is...the way of practice and persistence have been completely rejected by the emperor and become meaningless.

That's a really scary thing.

"Your Majesty, why?"

Tu Ju said with great reluctance: "I have indeed violated the unpardonable crime that I have committed against Your Majesty with my destiny, but Qin Lie... no! Yin Lie, the madman who assassinated the emperor, also cannot escape the death penalty!"

"Your Majesty! I really don't understand why you always favor this assassin!"

"He even went so far as to personally arrange a fake death trial for him to escape. Does his royal way...must be the right direction for the country?"

"Your Majesty! The old minister still said the same thing. When the royal way of the empire prevails in the future and Confucian ideas spread, you will definitely realize that the old minister is right!"

"Using the country with a king's way is like a madman stabbing the king. It has been shown for a long time!!"
