Da Qin: Self-destruction and time travel, I will extend my life for Qin for a thousand years

Chapter 66: The sharp knife that penetrates the six countries!

"The first one?"

Zhang Liang's lips trembled.

Although he was holding a large stack of Hsinchu paper in his hand, Wang Li's words still shocked him!
Such an outrageous strategy, but there are more?

Are you going to give the remnants of the Six Kingdoms a way to survive?
Before coming, he really didn't expect that he would be so stimulated.

"Cui Neishi, you are really good at it!"

He couldn't help but look at Cui Yuan, his eyes filled with resentment.

The latter didn't speak the whole time just now. He was obviously expecting this scene and was snickering at the show.

"Everyone underestimates you. I thought that cleaning the entire Kuaiji was already the biggest undertaking. Who would have thought that this is just a prologue?"

Zhang Liang originally thought highly of Cui Yuan, but now he seems to have underestimated him.

"It was just a fluke,"

"And I didn't expect that there would be so many rebellious officials and traitors in Kuaiji County."

Cui Yuan smiled modestly.

Originally, according to his plan, these supervisory system reforms were to wait for the first batch of graduates from Liucunbao College to appear, and then implement them around Xianyang.

After all, they will shake the interests of many officials and easily arouse their resistance.

If these people gather together and give up their responsibilities, Confucianism will not have that many people to use.

Then the blow to the official administration of Great Qin would be absolutely devastating.

Only by slowly bringing meritorious generals to power can reforms be implemented smoothly.

This is what Lao Tzu said in the Tao Te Ching - "Governing a country is like cooking fresh vegetables."

But no one expected that this trip to Kuaiji would yield so much.

Not only did he regain Xiang Yu, he was also allowed to go to the Great Wall to resist the Huns.

Moreover, he also exposed a large number of remnants of the Six Kingdoms who were lurking in the officialdom of Da Qin.

There are both witnesses and physical evidence, and with Brother Zheng's personal presence, it won't be easy to take down these rebels.

In just one month, the entire Kuaiji officialdom was completely transformed, and it was just enough to become a testing ground for the supervision system!

"Just keep watching, the reforms to come will be more in-depth."

Cui Yuan introduced Zhang Liang and became more curious.

He opened the Hsinchu paper at the back and looked at it carefully.

There are many measures to follow. This is a brand new system, but they can be summarized into three points.

The first point is to set up alternative officials, with three people for each official position.

These people have no real power, but they can contact their superiors and supervise the officials in office.

The second point is the change in punishment methods. The highest punishment is no longer the traditional death penalty and exile.

Instead, it has been changed to prohibit immediate relatives within three generations from becoming officials. Even relatives who are already officials will be demoted one level unless they hold important positions!
The third point is the substantial reduction of sentencing penalties, canceling the inhumane death penalty such as quartering the body with five horses, and replacing it with hanging and life-long corvee.

Moreover, in addition to receiving a large amount of money, those who report criminals can also receive meritorious service and the opportunity to study in a school!

If it is reported by an alternative official, after confirmation by the court, it can be replaced!
Just after reading it, Zhang Liang couldn't help but shudder!
Yang conspiracy!

This is a blatant conspiracy!
If it can be extended to the whole country, I am afraid that before the court finds out who is the remnant of the Six Kingdoms, people will rush to report it in order to study!

Even the other remnants of the Six Nations couldn't help but report each other.

After all, no one would be too little interested in this kind of good thing that can not only drag down the opponent, undermine the opponent's momentum, but also support the candidate officials to take office.

No matter in the past or now, the six countries were not monolithic, otherwise there would not have been the Warring States Period.

If it weren't for Da Qin, I'm afraid they would have broken up with each other now!
This kind of reform is like a knife, thrust hard into the six countries, just like the original He Zong Lian Heng!

"Cui Neishi, I can't believe that you actually succeeded in convincing His Majesty to adopt this reform."

After being amazed, Zhang Liang felt admiration again.Because although these policies were extremely terrifying, they had one thing in common - they all reduced Da Qin's punishment.

The laws of the Qin Dynasty have always been strict and comprehensive, and the First Emperor has always attached great importance to them.

"It's not that exaggerated. I just told His Majesty a few days ago about a very small matter about the future."

"What's going on in the future? Can I ask what the ovary is?"

"It's very simple, it's..."

"Ha ha!"

Zhang Liang was filled with doubts, Cui Yuan smiled and was about to explain.

But before he could finish speaking, a voice came from inside the room, and Ying Zheng, wearing a black dragon robe, came out.

In the past, he stayed at the palace in Kuaiji County, but now he obviously came here specially to see Zhang Liang.

"Meet Your Majesty!"

Zhang Liang saluted quickly, Cui Yuan and Wang Li did the same.

Ying Zheng waved his hand nonchalantly and walked in front of a few people.

"No need to be polite, can you let me answer your question?"

"This is the honor of the common people!" Zhang Liang stood at attention.

"This is the story of an Emperor born a thousand years in the future."

Ying Zheng began to tell: "His name was Zhu Yuanzhang, and he established the Ming Dynasty more than 500 years later."

"When this emperor was in power, he was very disgusted with corrupt officials. In order to punish them, he also invented a cruel punishment called peeling off the real grass."

"It means peeling off the human skin of corrupt officials and then filling it with straw to make a straw man and hang it in front of the palace."

"So cruel?" Zhang Liang was surprised.

The cruelty of this kind of punishment can probably be compared with the cannon fire during the Shang Dynasty!

"Once such a punishment is issued, corrupt officials in the world will not dare to commit crimes, right?" Zhang Liang guessed.

"No, quite the opposite."

Ying Zheng shook his head: "This punishment is indeed cruel, but in addition to being effective at the beginning, the effect becomes worse as it goes on."

"Even in the later period, almost all officials did not care about it and were all corrupt."

"Why?" Zhang Liang was surprised.

If the punishment is so harsh, why would anyone still break the law?
"Because too much is not enough." Ying Zheng replied: "Appropriate punishment can stop crime, but excessive punishment will drive people to a dead end!"

"It's a very simple truth. If a person embezzles one tael or 100 taels, the final punishment will be death."

"Then why didn't this person embezzle 1000 taels?"

"It is cruel to peel off the skin and make the grass real, but it cannot really deter those corrupt officials."

"Similarly, dismembering the body by five horses cannot truly deter the remaining sinners of the Six Nations. Only by gradually imposing punishments and ultimately implicating future generations can we truly make them fearful."

"I see."

Zhang Liang nodded bitterly: "Thank you for your advice, Your Majesty. It's just that the ovary didn't think well."

I originally wanted to report the crime and make meritorious deeds, but I didn't expect that I was taught a lesson. This experience was really bizarre.

"Now that I am here, except for a piece of information, I have nothing else to do."

When Ying Zheng saw this, he looked serious on the surface, but he was very happy in his heart and felt inexplicably happy.

No wonder Cui Yuan likes to spoil the future so much. This feeling is really not an ordinary pleasure!
Cui Yuan glanced aside, speechless at His Majesty taking away his opportunity to pretend, and also curious about the information in Zhang Liang's mouth.

What kind of information is it that Zhang Liang needs to come to tell in person?
"Cui Neishi, I'm afraid all the various schools of thought are going to attack you."
