Meng Tian's words came out, and the needles in the hall could be heard suddenly!

If the Hun cavalry can break through the Great Wall of 10,000 miles and "leaping horses and whip to the land of Xianyang" is said from the mouth of any minister in the court, I am afraid that anyone in this palace will be the first to stand up and spit on him, and then scold, gossip or neurotic, of course, if Daqin has this saying that he is neurotic at this time!

However, from Meng Tian's mouth, the great Qin ministers in this hall, including Li Si and Wei Yi, all fell into contemplation!

Everyone knows that Meng Tian will not be alarmist, and as Meng Tian, he will not do alarmist things! Meng Tian, who is the first person in the Great Qin military, is now the person with the most experience in dealing with the Huns or fighting in the Great Qin government and the opposition!

It seems that listening to the words of the emperor and Meng Tian, this Huns are more dangerous than the remnants of the Six Kingdoms who have already set off a wave of restoration in Great Qin? It's just that what does this Hun have to do with the abolition of slavery?

When everyone was pondering, such a thought involuntarily appeared in their minds!

The young emperor who was standing high on the main hall spoke up at this time!

"What Meng Aiqing said, can you know Aiqing now? Presumably, at this moment, you Aiqing must be thinking about the connection between this Huns and this abolition. Then I'll talk about it.

It is impossible for me to join forces with Meng Aiqing to compete with my Great Qin National Fortune and the abolition of slavery! The threat of the Huns is still under control, after all, the Maodun unified the vast land and wiped out the Donghu and other tribes, and it will take time to digest such a huge land, and in the same way, it will take a while for the Huns to integrate their strength before they can really go south.

However, this time is certainly not too long, it may be a month, it may be two months, it may even be a year and a half, or half a month!

And my Great Qin is now in ruins, there is still Xiang Liang in the south that is unresolved, and the matter of the child has not yet been resolved. Fortunately, now Xiang Liang's army has retreated to the south of the Huai River, and the hinterland of the Central Plains and all parts of Shandong have returned to peace!

I want to abolish the slave status, not to snatch private slaves from your Aiqing, but so that my Great Qin has enough manpower to recuperate! After accumulating strength, you can have enough strength to deal with the Huns who are about to go south after quelling the rebellion in the south!

All over Daqin, after years of chaotic wars, the people's livelihood is withering, and the people are not prosperous. At this moment, countless lands in the Central Plains need people to cultivate, and I, Daqin, need enough people to rectify this desolate fertile land of Shenzhou.

However, now that all the people of Daqin are registered, each household can only cultivate those lands, and the remaining large amount of land is barren, who should cultivate it? There are only the many private slaves hidden among the many wealthy families of Aiqing and Daqin! Do you think so? ”

Hu Hai: This is a heart-wrenching word.

He had thought about the abolition of slavery for too long! I also know very well that abolition of slavery basically involves all aspects of Daqin! Once the abolition of slavery is mentioned, it is basically equivalent to his emperor digging the ancestral graves of all the people who have some power and family business in Daqin today!

However, now he has to bring up the matter of abolition and do it!

Xiang Liang retreated to the south of the Huai River, but with his retreat, Surabaya and Chen County have basically become two empty counties! All the people, men and women, old and young, were brought to Jiujiang County by Xiang Liang!

He went from Xianyang to Julu, and then from Julu to Jimo, and finally returned to Xianyang from Jimo, and he walked through more than ten counties in Shandong one by one, and saw too much fertile land along the way because no one cultivated it and became wasteland, overgrown with weeds!

Daqin is not without land, but uncultivated!

What the people lack is not land, but an environment where they can cultivate and recuperate with peace of mind!

Now, the entire Central Plains has finally been peaceful, Hu Hai thought about it, and the only thing he could think of was the tens of thousands of families in Guanzhong, the rich families, and the countless private slaves in the palaces of many ministers in the court!

The hall fell silent again!

The people present are not stupid, nor are they stunned, it is impossible for the emperor to really let him dig up his ancestral grave because of his heart-wrenching words! Private slavery is related to the vital interests of every dignitary and family!

Once agreed, everyone's worth will immediately shrink by more than half!

At that time, who will make up for your losses? Looking for the emperor to make amends? Then it's better to find a knife and wipe your neck!

The ministers did not speak, and the atmosphere in the hall was extremely dull!

Meng Tian and Zhang Han both got up at the same time and prepared to speak.

"Today, when it comes to the abolition of slavery, you Aiqing should think about it! Let's talk about it again! Hu Hai saw the movements of Meng Tian and Zhang Han, and hurriedly spoke before the two!

Meng Tian would agree that he had known for a long time, because he had discussed the abolition of slavery with Meng Tian on the way back, and Meng Tian was also very much in favor of it! Zhang Han, as the emperor's hardcore confidant, naturally knew that he should be on that side.

However, in the matter of abolition of slavery today, Hu Hai just said hello to these top and two important ministers of Great Qin, that is, to take a preventive shot. He said that he was going to do something about the abolition of slavery!

After letting the wind out, he believed that tomorrow the entire Xianyang would know what he said today, and at that time, he should stand on that side and not on that side, and all the ministers in the court would have a thought in their hearts.

And the real compromise and contest must be done in private!

He didn't think that he would talk about the abolition of slavery in this council today, in that case, he would think too highly of himself and underestimate the ability of the ministers of the DPRK and China!

If he has to talk about a result in this council hall, I am afraid that the Great Qin Dynasty will be divided within the court!

He could sweep these people away with a thunderbolt, but what about after the sweep? And how? So, take your time, everyone's good!

Hearing that the emperor didn't want to discuss a result on this abolition of slavery today, all the ministers in the hall, including Li Si, secretly breathed a sigh of relief! As long as you don't have to talk about a result today, then there is room for everything to turn around!

The dull atmosphere in the hall became light and gloomy in an instant because of Hu Hai's words!

"The abolition of slavery, you Aiqing will think about it more after you go down! For Daqin, for me! Hu Hai said in a deep voice!

"Your Ministers obey!"

This time, the voice was much louder and more neat!

"So good! Let's talk about the second thing, how is the land survey in Guanzhong? Zhang Aiqing? Hu Hai stopped his eyes on the white and fat Zhang Cang!

Zhang Cang, this is the first time he has come to this council hall since he took office as the governor of the government!

The last time Hu Hai summoned Zhang Cang was in the emperor's study. At that time, Zhang Cang's performance made Hu Hai extremely dissatisfied! Today, it's time to study the effect of Shangji Mansion in Zhang Cang's hands!

"Back to Your Majesty, all the land in Guanzhong has been measured!" Zhang Cang got up and bowed to Hu Hai!

"How's the tax on the merchants?"

"Several counties in Guanzhong, the government offices of the Shangji Prefecture have all been set up, and the matter of business and tax collection, Your Majesty's edict is feasible at any time!"

"Can the grain mill, iron utensils, salt mill sales and other government-run workshops be completed?"

"Back to Your Majesty, everything has been set up!"

"The price of grain, the price of iron can be set?"

"Eh, back to Your Majesty, it hasn't been decided yet!"

"Well, the matter of copper coins can be edicted all over Guanzhong? Did the people respond? ”

"Back to Your Majesty, the gold and copper coins are now circulating in Xianyang, and several counties in Guanzhong are collecting cloth coins and other things, which can be completed without saying anything! The people did not object! ”

"Is the count of the dead complete?"

"Back to Your Majesty, all the soldiers have been counted since the beginning of the twentieth year of the First Emperor!"

Hu Hai asked, Zhang Cang answered, extremely fast!

Hu Hai just asked if it was completed, and did not ask Zhang Cang about the specific number geometry! He didn't need to ask Zhang Cang! Because Long Wei has more detailed numbers and various reports than Zhang Cang!

It's just that Hu Hai didn't have time to read Long Wei's report, and he didn't have time to ask!

However, Zhang Cang's performance today has greatly changed Hu Hai! In less than two months, he was able to complete 90% of the many tasks he had given him, no wonder Zhang Cang seemed to have lost a lot of weight this time!

"Well, stop the matter of measuring the acres for the time being! Write a detailed letter to you to prepare a concerto, and you will hand it over to me tomorrow! ”

"Your Majesty obeys!"

When Zhang Cang heard the emperor's words, he breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, knowing that he had passed the test, and hurriedly responded! It's just that the emperor seems to be asking too simply!

When Hu Hai asked Zhang Cang, all the ministers in the hall looked at their noses and mouths, and they were silent!

"Ming said that it is the post-book ceremony! This is the end of the day! I'm tired! However, now that the drought in Guanzhong has been resolved, you Aiqing should perform your duties and make up for the cultivation in Guanzhong as soon as possible, and it is not too late to catch up with the autumn planting! ”

Hu Hai issued an eviction order!

Today, it seems that the emperor did not mention anything other than the addition of the three dukes and the abolition of slavery! Even if the god's prayer for rain was a trivial matter, there was no mention of it!

And what shrouded in the hearts of Li Si and others was the fact that there were only more than 6,000 people left in Xianyang after the return of the emperor's more than 20,000 personal guards, and the emperor also did not mention anything! Everyone didn't know what the emperor was up to!

Is this half-?

It is becoming more and more difficult to see through the actions of the little emperor, which is the unanimous idea of the ministers in this palace now!

Come to think of it, among the ministers in this palace, I am afraid that only Meng Tian has probably guessed a little bit and understood a little. That is, the emperor is acting more and more like an antelope hanging on its horns, and there is no trace of it!

Inadvertently, the emperor has achieved all the goals he wants to achieve!

The timing is accurate, and the foresight of the plan makes Meng Tian breathtaking!

I'm afraid that by the time it is rumored that His Majesty wants to abolish slavery in the Ming Dynasty, His Majesty has completed all the layouts and is ready to issue an edict to officially order the world to abolish private slaves!

Did Lees see through it? Meng Tian couldn't help but look at Li Si!

It seemed that he had discovered Meng Tian's vision, and Li Si nodded to Meng Tian with a rare smile!

"Wait for the resignation!"

All the ministers said in unison!
