Chapter 25: King Qi's Confusion

"County system?" Lu Buwei became interested. "A book can also help me clean up the city?"

Shang Yang smiled: "Since King Wu's defeat, Zhou Tianzi has conquered the four seas and divided his relatives and heroes, so that the world has been divided into hundreds of scattered princes. ”

"But the vassal states are big and small, strong and weak, in fact, there is a direct relationship with the talents of the monarch and the fief lord."

"But if you want to make a country strong, it is too dangerous to pin the whole country or city on one person. What if there is a mediocre person? ”

"Therefore, I want to fix the policy of governance in the form of law, and the local administration is no longer decided by sub-feudalism, but directly dispatched by the central government, so that the entire policy of governing the country and the city will have an extremely reliable system to help operate, without relying on the strength of individuals!"

Shang Yang said this, a roll of bamboo slips, and knocked on the table.

"Under the county system, even if a pig is the lord of the city, the whole city can run freely and there will be no chaos!"

"Good!" Lu Buwei stood up excitedly, didn't care about the metaphor of "pigs are the city lords", and held Shang Yang's hand tightly.

"If the prime minister plans to govern for me, then I can have no worries and level the city's economy!"

Wang Guo also looked at the palace and said with emotion: "This is not my work, it is all the king's strategy, I just happened to understand the king's thoughts." I suggest, the three of us, toast the king here! ”

Jiang Shen and Lu Buwei also got up, filled their wine glasses, and the three of them spilled the wine on the ground.

"My king, we will do our best to create a great plan for you!"

The three of them looked at the palace with a determined look in their eyes.

It just seemed that there were a few faint sneezes coming from the palace.

……

The coast of the East China Sea, the country of Qi, the palace of Qi.

"Xuan'er, you have worked hard for your father, how can you be so stubborn!" King Qi looked at the twenty-eight-year-old daughter in front of him with a graceful posture, and he was angry.

Tian Xuan hid behind the wall pillars of the palace, and his attitude was resolute: "I don't want to marry Qin Jun!" The land of Rongdi in the Qin State is dilapidated, so I don't want to be a queen for him! ”

King Qi looked gloomy: "The State of Qin is a hegemon in the West, and the King of Qin is a rare talent in the world. If the Qin State and I intermarry, the combination of East and West will definitely be able to deter the Central Plains! As the princess of Qi Guoyan, how can you be so unreasonable! ”

Tian Xuan had tears in his eyes, but he was still hoarse: "You only care about your overlord dream, how have you ever considered your daughter's feelings!" The daughter couldn't stand the barbaric land of Qin, and asked her father to return the marriage letter! ”

"You dare! Great powers are allied, you are the daughter of a widow, how can you be so willful! Qi Wangqi's eyebrows trembled three times.

Tian Xuan gritted his teeth: "My daughter would rather be a concubine to the king of the sea country than marry the queen of the Qin country!" ”

"Presumptuous, presumptuous!" King Qi was furious, "In the land of the sea country, the widow can be destroyed with a backhand!" His monarch is mediocre and incompetent, and no one will agree to it after you do it, how can you talk about being a concubine! ”

After steasing for a moment, King Qi continued: "The Qin State is the overlord of the West, echoing with my Great Qi from afar! This King Qin, you have to marry if you don't marry! ”

"your dreams!" Tian Xuan couldn't control it anymore and scolded King Qi directly.

"Rebel, rebel!" King Qi couldn't stop trembling.

At this moment, suddenly the eunuch came to report: "My king, I sent two secret agents before, and now they have returned, and they are waiting in the side hall." ”

"Hmph, the widow will deal with government affairs first, and then I'll clean up your rebel later!" King Qi shook his hand, and suddenly thought of something, "Xuan'er, you follow your father into the side hall and listen carefully to the current situation of the Sea Kingdom behind the screen!" Look at that dilapidated little country, are you still willing to marry! ”

King Qi went to the side hall in a huff.

Tian Xuan also followed closely, hiding behind the screen, listening to the information brought back by the two secret agents from Haiguo.

King Qi sat down and looked at the two secret agents: "Say, if there is no food, the sea country should be messed up, right?" ”

The two spies glanced at each other, and then hurriedly replied: "My king, there is no shortage of food in Haiguo, and the political situation is stable. ”

"Hmph, I'll just say that under the sanctions of the widows, the sea country will definitely ......," King Qi said as he relieved himself, "Huh? Not short of food? ”

Isn't it, the widows have sent people to block the passage of the sea country to buy and sell the grain of other countries, how can there be no shortage of food?

You two idiots are going the wrong way, right?

"The widow is talking about the sea country!" King Qi reiterated it again.

The two spies hurriedly knelt down again: "My king, this matter is true. As far as we know, although the harvest of the Haiguo this year is not good, the monarch of the Haiguo does not know where to get 30,000 stone of grain to stabilize the market and provide relief to the victims. ”

"Those big families in the sea country, seeing that there is enough grain, they can't make much money by storing grain, so they no longer stock grain. Instead, they began to sell grain. ”

"Based on the observation of the two of us, the grain on the market in Haiguo is enough to support more than a month, and by that time, it is estimated that a new crop of grain will also be planted."

King Qi frowned, but heard a very low "poof" sound from behind the screen.

"This little girl who is against the widow everywhere!" King Qi was secretly unhappy in his heart.

But what's the use of just having food to eat!

In the era of competition among nations, military strength is the ultimate guarantee!

Girl, the widow has to let you see today, such a dilapidated and small country as Haiguo is absolutely impossible to go!

"Even if there is no shortage of food in the sea country, then the military discipline is very lax, right? The widow can always remember that the forbidden army of the Sea Country is known as five thousand elites, hahahaha! King Qi lightly twisted his three-inch-long short beard and laughed.

Obviously, the strength of the forbidden army of the Sea Kingdom has long been known on the coast of the East China Sea.

The two spies leaned over and replied: "My king, now under the rectification of Jiang Shen, the general of the Sea Kingdom, the 5,000 forbidden army has become 3,000. ”

"Hahahaha! Sure enough, the few guesses are good, in the land of projectiles, you can't even pick out the garbage! King Qi was even more happy, and deliberately raised the volume a little, wanting to dye the screen behind the princess Tian Xuan heard it clearly.

The two spies were stunned for a moment, looked at each other again, and then continued: "My king, the two of us once saw an archer, but because the ten arrows hit an average of 8.9 rings, and did not reach the standard of 9 rings, they were directly cleared out by the forbidden army......"

Well? Ten arrows have an average of 8.9 rings, so they have to be cleared?

The passing standard turned out to be an average of 9 rings in ten arrows?

It doesn't seem like the script is quite right, right?

Although it is said that the average of ten arrows is 9 rings, it is not a particularly difficult thing, and among his Qi Wang Wei, there is no shortage of such masters.

But it's too incredible to list such high requirements as an entry-level standard, and it is still among the weak sea countries, right?

Moreover, 8.9 and 9 are basically the same, and they are not so cruel that they are almost cleared, right?

No, no, there must be something else going on.

Maybe this man was fired for trickery?

Anyway, he King Qi doesn't believe that Haiguo can be strict enough to this standard!
