Chapter 18: Qin Xiang's Suffering!
"The last general commands!"
Baili Feng replied, and then left the palace, and led 10,000 of the 20,000 elite iron horsemen he brought back to leave Xianyang City, and went to the military camp of Gongzi Zhuang and Gongzi Yong to prepare to receive the military power of the 100,000 Qin army.
After watching Baili Feng leave, a trace of complexity flashed in Mi Shu's eyes: "Ji'er, this 100,000 Chu army is the test left by the eldest mother, if you don't have the ability to solve it, then it proves that Dang'er is not worse than you, but I will still use the 100,000 Bashu army and the 120,000 Qin troops around Xianyang City to clear the obstacles for you, so that you can become the king of Qin, and you can be regarded as making up for the debt of the eldest lady to you and the guilt of the Dang'er for you." ”
"When the king was still alive, he said that you were more suitable for governing the country than Dang'er, I want to see what means Ji'er will use to deal with these 100,000 Chu troops?"
This is the thought in Mi Shu's heart at this time, in order to prove that her child is no worse than Yingji, Mi Shu is also a little willful, but it is harmless, and the way Yingji solves the 100,000 Chu army in the future is even more shocking to Mi Shu!
Xianyang City, within the Prime Minister's House!
Xiangguo's mansion is the most important thing in the ruling class of the state, in addition to the king of a country, the Xiangguo of the state and the generals are the civil and military leaders of the entire state, and the Xiangfu located in Xianyang City is inhabited by one of the most powerful people in the entire Great Qin, from the Chu State, it is Miyue's half-brother Wei Ran, the Xiangguo of Qin, the world's largest warring state.
"It's delicious, it's really spicy, it's not as mild as Wei wine, it's not as tasteless as Yan wine, sister, it's useless for younger brothers, although you are a prime minister of a country, but there is no way to protect you and your nephew!"
In this luxurious and majestic mansion, a man in civilian clothes, with a scruffy beard and unkempt hair, said that the man was drinking and reproaching himself bitterly.
This person looks like he is only in his thirties, but he can't help but exude a majestic aura on his body, this person is now Wei Ran, the Xiangguo of Daqin, and he is also Miyue's younger brother and Yingji's uncle!
And at this moment, Wei Yuan's heart was full of guilt, although he was a prime minister, he had no way to protect his sister and nephew when Qin's civil strife occurred.
Letting his sister and nephew suffer in the Yan Kingdom also made Wei Ran the laughing stock of the princes and nobles in the Six Eastern Kingdoms.
Unexpectedly, the Xiangguo of the First Warring States Qin State, one of the most powerful people in the entire Great Qin, had no way to protect his relatives, how incompetent this was, and it also became a pain in Wei Ran's heart.
Everyone in the world knows that the prime minister of a country naturally controls the authority of the state, but who can know the helplessness in Wei Ran's heart, the Qin State has been different from other countries since the Shang Dynasty changed the law.
Like the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, the power controlled by a country's prime minister or a country's general is unimaginable, and if the king cannot control it and let it get out of control, then it may even overthrow the country's power!
This is the case with the Tian family on behalf of Jiang, otherwise the large eastern country of Nuoda was established from the early days of the founding of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the Qi royal family that was given to the Taigong was originally surnamed Jiang.
However, the Jiang family was stupid, so that the Tian family, the senior doctor who controlled the power of the Qi country, seized the opportunity to overthrow the Jiang family's rule, and even was recognized by Zhou Tianzi at that time.
However, since the Qin State experienced the Shang Dynasty reform, there is a truth in it, that is, any title is a false seal, and there has never been a real seal, which means that any official position obtained in the Qin State does not actually have much real power.
In fact, it is more to help the king deal with affairs and a symbol of honor, the difficulty of the Qin State is more than ten times that of the six eastern countries, and if you can be crowned, it is even more of a supreme glory!
But it also made countless scholars from the six eastern countries rush to it, after all, only the Qin State can realize the ambitions in the hearts of these humble scholars.
I have to say that Shang Ying and Qin Xiaogong had a long-term vision when they carried out the Shang Dynasty reform, and they have almost solved one of the most important drawbacks in the feudal dynasty, that is, the dictatorship of ministers.
The power of the Qin State was able to be concentrated in the king, and the possibility of civil strife and the destruction of the country was almost eliminated.
I didn't see that the Qin Dynasty established by Yingzheng later, after Hu Hai ascended the throne, even if Hu Hai was no longer popular, no matter how talented Fusu, who pinned the hopes of the people of the world, was talented, even if he had the support of the general Meng Tian, but in the absence of soldiers, he still couldn't even mobilize the army!
In the end, Fusu and Meng Tian could only commit suicide by taking poison, do you think that Fusu and Meng Tian really want to die, after all, they are not foolish and loyal people, and they also hope to return the world to a peaceful and prosperous world, but they really can't resist!
It can be said that the political system of the Qin State is already similar to the centralized political system, and the degree of centralization is very strong.
Didn't I see that after the Qin Dynasty even the most untalented and brutal Hu Hai ascended the throne, didn't the Qin Dynasty have no internal chaos.
It's not that I don't want to mess up, but when Shang Ying changed the law, the political system of the Qin State had already determined that this situation could not happen at all.
The fall of the Qin Dynasty was also caused by the collective restoration of the six eastern countries, and it was really unpopular to go to the Qin Dynasty, the criminal law was too harsh, there were too many taxes and miscellaneous taxes, and the people of the world were turned back.
And the current Qin Prime Minister Wei Ran is like this, in the eyes of the six eastern countries, the status of Qin Prime Minister Wei Ran is extremely noble, almost above 10,000 people under one person, but who can know the bitterness in Wei Ran's heart.
After all, he is a Wenchen, and he is usually not responsible for controlling state power as established by the Qin Dynasty, but is directly responsible to the emperor.
The current Prime Minister of Qin is only responsible for diplomacy with the state, plus putting forward opinions to the King of Qin on the strategy of governing the country, and he does not even have the slightest military power in his hands!
And the law of the Qin State is very iron, except for the monarch who can have the power of life and death, the rest of the people must abide by the law, even if it is the son of the royal family, and the punishment of the doctor is completely exquisite in governing the country according to law, even compared with the laws of later generations, it is also surpassed, so even Wei Ran, who is the prime minister, does not dare to exceed it in the slightest!
And there are only three ways to mobilize the Qin army, one is the edict of the King of Qin, one is the tiger talisman of the Qin army, and the other is the sword of Qin Mugong in the Spring and Autumn Five Hegemons, and each of these three things can only mobilize one-third of the entire Qin State at most.
This has avoided the situation of the generals within the Qin army supporting the army and respecting themselves, even if it is the general who controls the power of the Qin army, but if he dares to rebel with bad intentions, then the king of Qin can take back the military power at any time.
Even if he wants to stop the general, he can't stop it, so controlling military power is not a question of whether he can do it or not, but whether he wants to do it, which is the case for Wei Ran now, who seems to have a noble status but actually has no military power and cannot interfere in the internal affairs of the country.
And this is almost impossible to exist in the six eastern countries, so the kings of the six eastern countries must always guard against their ministers, guard against the doctor, the prime minister, and the generals, which is also the reason why the six eastern countries have not been able to develop for a long time, even if they are loyal, they can't be trusted, they can only be said to be helpless!
