Chapter Eighty-Seven: This Old Man Is Bad
Li Yang rolled his eyes in his heart, and had no choice but to reply: "Back to Your Majesty, the fundamental reason for the chaos in various places is actually caused by the lack of food at home. However, this chaos should not last long, nor should it be too serious, because the people's fields have already planted seedlings and grains, and when autumn comes, they will have food to eat, and with this hope, most of the people will not be willing to rebel. ”
Yes, the rebellion is because there is no way to live, and in the territory of Daqin today, it can be said that every family has seedlings and grains planted in the fields, and this is their hope.
With this hope, as long as you hold on for about three months, you will have a way to live, just ask, who would be willing to rebel and fight?
Obviously, the rebellious refugees can only be a small area, a small part of the victims, and it is impossible to create a general trend that threatens the dominance of the Great Qin Empire.
Ying Zheng sighed, but he didn't blame Li Yang for his light servitude.
In fact, Yingzheng is not a faint monarch, what is the situation of Qin State, he does not know less than these ministers in the palace.
He also knew that since the beginning of this year, Qin had entered a dead end.
Because he has too many things to do, in recent years, the forced labor has become more and more heavy, making the situation that there is no land and no one cultivating it in Daqin.
This is why the two million servants were disbanded and returned, and only two or three months passed, and this chaos broke out.
And if you don't take Li Yang's road of light servitude, the consequences will not only be the small riot in front of you.
If the two million servants do not return to their hometowns this year, it will be impossible for the fields of the people to be cultivated, and if there is no grain in the fields, the people will not see hope.
In this way, when the famine comes, the whole country will inevitably rise up one after another, and this general trend is irreversible.
In other words, whether you are a servant or not, there will be a famine today.
In other words, just now Ying Zheng just heard that the rebellious people had reached the point of attacking the county seat, so he was angry in his heart, so he said such a sentence, which was to blame Li Yang for his light servitude, but rather to blame those rebellious people, and he had no gratitude for the benevolent government he had implemented this year.
En will take revenge, but instead create a rebellion, this is the pain point of Yingzheng's anger.
As the saying goes, the speaker is unintentional, but the listener is intentional. This sentence could not be more appropriate to describe the people in the Qilin Hall at this moment.
Emperor Yingzheng is the speaker is unintentional, and when this sentence is heard in the ears of those ministers in the palace, they think that Yingzheng is blaming Li Yang and denying the sustainable development strategy.
It is rare for the emperor to deny Li Yang, such a good opportunity to suppress, how could Feng Qujian not grasp it, and immediately came out to suppress it: "Prime Minister Zhong's words are bad!" This chaos won't last long, and it won't be too serious? I don't agree with that. ”
Li Yang was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and asked, "What is Feng Xiang's opinion?" ”
Feng Qu said: "Now that chaos has arisen, there are even people attacking the county town under the banner of anti-Qin, this is a real rebellion." Did the prime minister think that as soon as the grain in the fields was ripe, they would each disband and return to their homes and become good citizens who kept to themselves? I can say with certainty that if this chaos is not suppressed by troops as soon as possible, the chaos will inevitably grow rapidly, and eventually become a big trouble in my Great Qin's heart! ”
Speaking of this, Feng Quji arched his hand to the emperor and said: "Your Majesty, this chaos is worrying, the two million servants who were disbanded in the spring are all young and strong people, and they are bound to rebel with the thieves in the face of famine, so it is an army of two million thieves, and Daqin is in danger!" ”
I have to say that Feng Quji, this old guy is really bad.
Although his words sounded like he was discussing the seriousness of the chaos on the surface, in fact, he blamed the seriousness of the chaos more on Li Yang's strategy of light servitude.
It was because you asked the emperor to dismiss the two million servants, and now the two million servants have become anti-thieves and rebels who are about to rebel, and the two million anti-Qin army, no matter which emperor hears this, he will be shocked.
As long as the emperor is scared of this, he will naturally regret even more that he listened to Li Yang's strategy of light conscription, so that Li Yang is in the emperor's heart, and the image of "auspicious Xiang" will collapse and disintegrate, and he will eventually be snubbed and completely lose his favor.
It can be said that although it is just such a simple and ordinary sentence, Feng Quji, an old guy, has put a lot of thought into it.
This is really old, and once you use your mind to get bad, it's really scary. Treacherous and slippery, no wonder the idiom "old traitor and slippery" would describe these old guys.
Sure enough, after Ying Zheng heard this, his brows immediately tightened, and his face was full of worry, because what Feng Quji said was indeed very reasonable.
If the current chaos develops in the worst aspect, it is bound to be really as Feng Qujian said, two million young and strong forces, maybe it will become two million anti-Qin army.
This is fatal to today's Great Qin, and there is even the possibility of the death of Qin.
Thinking of this, Ying Zheng became solemn and said: "What Feng Xiang said is also reasonable, these two million young strong forces can't let them become anti-thieves, otherwise my Great Qin will be worried!" ”
"Your Majesty Shengming!"
Feng went to slap a sycophant.
Obviously, he won this game. Didn't you Li Yang say that this chaos shouldn't last long, and it won't be too serious? But the emperor doesn't believe you.
At this time, a councillor came out and said: "Your Majesty, the minister believes that in this extraordinary period, strict laws should be issued immediately, and severe punishments should be imposed to deter the hearts of the troubled people, so that they will not dare to easily rebel and cause chaos." ”
Another speaker also said: "The minister also agrees with this proposal, because the new law has abolished the joint sitting, so it has invisibly made these chaotic people even more lawless and unscrupulous!" ”
Another speaker also seconded: "The minister also agrees that the law should be strict, or the law of joint sitting should be restored." If there is still a way to sit together, even if someone in the pavilion tries to rebel and cause chaos, it will also be stopped by everyone in the pavilion, which can be a good deterrent. ”
When Li Yang heard this, his brows were twisted together, and his heart suddenly became angry.
You attribute the seriousness of the chaos to the policy of light forced labor, and that's it, and now these sluts are trying to restore the law of joint sitting?
This is no longer a denial of the new law, but an attempt to subvert the new law!
If the new law is suspended, this is equivalent to the failure of the new law reform, and why can he Li Yang be the prime minister? Isn't it because he opened the government and changed the new law?
Therefore, Li Yang is really angry, they want to bring him down!
"Bold!"
At that moment, Li Yang shouted angrily, glaring at the three sluts with a thick anger and murderous intent in his eyes, and asked, "Are you going to change my Great Qin New Law?" ”
