Chapter 179: General Order
The clouds are rolling up, the wind is rising and disappearing, and the high under the slanting sun gradually leaves the shriveled bag on his back, and gradually disappears into the sky. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ο½ο½ο½Uο½Eγ info His mission is not over yet, but his value is almost exhausted, and this time he will go back and ask for an explanation and make a decision.
The hot spring palace was empty again, and one of the two prisoners was freed, and the other lived forever in joy and sorrow after seeing the brief sunshine.
Zhao Ji and Yingzheng died twenty years ago, and Lan Ji also informed LΓΌ Buwei of the matter, but three days after Zhao Zheng's wedding, LΓΌ Buwei asked Zhao Zheng to move back to Xianyang Palace.
"Lu Buwei is a hero, he eats people without spitting out bones, and he doesn't do it for a long time, which proves that he is still hesitating, and he is hesitating whether Lan Ji is lying to him."
Zhao Zheng thought that the bond that maintained the political alliance between the two was now only politics, and that white jade statue might be his last kindness. And after being disillusioned, will LΓΌ Buwei usurp the throne and stand on his own.
"Stabilize the Qin State," Zhao Zheng secretly decided, "this time for the great name of Yingzheng." β
With a fast horse and a jar of spirits, Zhao Zheng came to the three peaches where Wang Yi lived alone. Meng Yu has been here for many days, and the two of them are either drinking or fighting bare-chested, adding up to a century and a half of old men, who are like children when they are drunk.
"Wang Er, the old man doesn't understand, you old guy doesn't plan to go out, why did you go to my daughter's wedding, and save this muddy boy with his mother's help.
The old man drank wine with you for five days, was drunk for five days, and woke up for five days. Now that the boy is here, you can make it clear whether you want to go to Xianyang or not. β
Meng Fu held the wine jar, his face was red, his mouth was full of wine, but his eyes were still sharp, staring at Wang Yu and asking.
Not to be outdone, Wang Yi had an altar under his feet, holding half a jar in his arms, as if he was drunk but not drunk, and he seemed to smile and said: "Meng Laosan, you old man finally said it, decades of old brothers, you are the most treacherous."
Why, when you are old, you still want to take your old husband to die for King Qin, although the old man has no children or daughters, it is not so easy. β
Raising his neck, he drank the remaining half jar of wine, "Refreshing, not to mention anything else, our Royal Highness the Crown Prince, the wine is really good." β
Zhao Zheng waved his hand and smiled: "Thank you General Wang for your compliment, the kid has a lot of things that are not bad, such as the Quyuan plough used by the people of Santaoli, after it was introduced to the Qin State last year, the grain production increased by more than two percent, and at least one county can survive." β
"That's why the old man said that you are good, a hundred times better than your grandfather who only knows lewd pleasures, and ten times better than your bold and resourceful father."
Wang Yi sneered and said slowly, no matter if these words are heard by officials at the level of Qin, they will be asked for a capital crime, and even if they are heard by some people who are loyal to the King of Qin, they will be charged with rumors in the township.
Meng Fu shook his head and watched Zhao Zheng's next response.
Generals, the most important thing is not courage and skill, but loyalty, and only generals who are loyal to the king will be reused.
"Haha, why should my father-in-law be nervous, my son-in-law said that it was a person who came to visit General Wang and asked him to go out of the mountain to help Qin. The so-called courtesy must be courteous to others, and since there is a request, it is natural to be humble enough.
The old general insulted two generations of Qin kings, although it was a great rebellion, but he was right, Qin Wuxiaowen Wang Zhu did not lose Hangu; There is no such thing as a weak king today.
Ying Zheng is not here to ask the old general to go out of the mountain and solve the urgent need that Qin has no generals available. Instead, give the old general a chance to personally lead his troops to attack the Central Plains.
Hangu Pass is very important, the banner of Great Qin should be planted on the coast of the East China Sea, the Qin officials should be herdsmen Jing Chu, and the Qin iron cavalry should sweep the northern frontier. β
Meng Fu's expression gradually became solemn, and with Zhao Zheng's undulating tone, it seemed that he really swept the world on a horse. And Wang Yi pouted disdainfully, such encouraging words were just child's play for him.
"Prince Zheng, the old man will call you so, sweeping the world, herdsman Jing Chu, do you know that the six nationals have different customs and languages, and most of the nobles speak official language, but the people at the bottom are ruled by foreign officials.
Not to mention, the land of Bashu, since the first Huiwen King general Sima Cuo seized, so far Qin has been operating for nearly a hundred years, and there are still rebellions from time to time. Li Bing is so resourceful, the water dragon can be locked, but for the people under his rule, he is not a stupid way to marry, and Li Huai is born to take over as Taishou.
The Ba family monopolized Shuzhong, and the king of Zhaoxiang had no way to eradicate it, and the rebellion of the Marquis of Shu was still borrowed from the Ba family's money and grain to send troops to pacify.
The Qin officials, herdsmen, Jing Chu, Guanzhong officials, herdsmen, and Shuzhong are all difficult, what do you use to establish your prestige? β
Township party politics, the remnants of primitive clan society, seem to be difficult to eradicate in the Tang Dynasty, and the five surnames and seven families have given Li Lao Er a headache for a lifetime.
However, this is all a trivial matter, Zhao Zheng secretly laughed, with the three magic weapons of Taizu, 40,000,000 great countries can be dyed red, not to mention tens of millions of pure and good ancients.
"The prince is a man, the fifth-level title is like a five-story mountain pressing on the people, and the most hateful ones are hereditary, and the princes are generations of ministers.
The princes and princes are full of poetry and books, and they are proficient in power and strategy, and they are naturally stronger than poor scholars for the people, but if the people are not satisfied with the ministers on their heads, they must also stand up and fight to be a secretary of all generations. β
Wang Yi was shocked, he was up and down in the sea, and after being defeated at Hangu Pass, he was able to break through the secular officialdom, and regarded all officials as moths that oppressed the people.
The people of Qin are simple, and the Shang Jun said that ploughing and warfare can strengthen the country, and they plough and fight for a hundred years, but they couldn't eat enough a hundred years ago, and they are still like this a hundred years later, and only the fat-headed and big-eared aristocratic ministers have changed.
Zhao Zheng's words touched him, it seems that it has become the nature of the people to obey the aristocracy, and the fear of the government is also because the officials are nobles. If a group of foreign officials are replaced, even the nobles will leave the fiefdom, which is equivalent to a poor scholar, and the people of these two people are not afraid, or they are not obedient.
The aristocracy rules over the people, and the king rules over the nobility, thus forming a state within a certain range. But the scope will not be too large, the big difference in folk customs will make the remote areas actually independent, as Zhao Zheng said, let the people have the heart to rebel against the aristocracy, the majesty of the government may really become, but as a king, Zhao Zheng will do it?
Wang Ji hesitated for a long time, and asked in a low voice: "The prince is strong, why do you hurt orphans and widows, even if she is a spy, you shouldn't kill your siblings." β
Zhao Zheng said with a smile: "The old general is afraid that I will even kill my siblings, and he is a murderous tyrant in temperament." In the future, the general trend has been decided, and the generals will be cooked with dead rabbits and dogs, and the people will be knocked out of the bones and marrow.
Although it is inappropriate for the old general to think of me like this, I applaud the general. If you have no soldiers, you can't be a general, and if you don't have the people, you can't lead the army.
For example, General Wu Anjun Baiqi, who ruthlessly beheaded 200,000 prisoners in the Battle of Yique, and formed a mortal enmity with Zhou, which was criticized by the world. However, at the beginning, the Qin army did not have much food left, and if it was not killed and captured, the Qin army would be dragged down, and the Qin army would be defeated by the people of Qin. β
"Do you think the Admiral did the right thing?"
Wang Yi was like a child who asked the teacher if he wrote his homework well, and asked Zhao Zheng in a gaffe.
Zhao Zheng nodded, and he smiled.
At the beginning, King Zhaoxiang listened to the slander and thought that Bai Qi was too murderous, so he dismissed him from office and cut him down, and then let the traitorous ministers harm him, and ended up grieving and killing himself.
King Xiaowen ascended the throne, advocated Confucianism, and issued an edict to take away all the honors of the Bai Qi family, condemning this loyal minister who had served the Qin State all his life.
Wang Yi wanted to make a great contribution to the bloody battle of Hangu Pass, but he was defeated when the reinforcements were withdrawn.
Now that Zhao Zheng is justifying his reputation as the crown prince of Qin, Wang Yi feels that his long-dormant wish is about to come true.
"The old man can go out of the mountain, but the prince has to promise the old man one thing."
Zhao Zhengxi was overjoyed, and a veteran general was worthy of 100,000 troops, and hurriedly said: "The general said that it doesn't matter, I will do my best." β
"After the crown prince ascends the throne, he will correct the name of the eldest brother Bai."
It wasn't for himself, Zhao Zheng looked at Wang Yi, the rumors were true, Bai Qi promoted him to be a general, and he had a great kindness with him. And this generation of war gods naturally has to be offered high and admired by the people of the whole Qin State.
"The old general rest assured, Wu Anjun is the pride of the Qin people, you don't have to wait for me to ascend the throne, tomorrow I will enter the palace to supervise the country, and issue an edict to correct Wu Anjun's name."
