Chapter 152: Ying Zheng's obsession
"The criminal minister Wang Shouyi visited His Majesty, and may His Majesty crisscross the world and be in charge of the world. The sun and the moon shine together, immortal. Wang Shouyi looked respectful and humble, and saluted Ying Zheng.
Ying Zheng just looked at Wang Shouyi and didn't speak. His face was unwavering, and no one knew what he was thinking at the moment. And Wang Shouyi was kneeling on the ground, and his heart was worried.
"Do you hate me?" After a while, Ying Zheng said an intriguing sentence, and he looked at Wang Shouyi very calmly.
"The sinners don't dare, please let your majesty know it. Wang Shouyi was stunned at first, then shocked in his heart, and immediately shouted respectfully.
"Don't you dare, or don't you want to?" Ying Zheng said vaguely, and looked at Wang Shouyi with sharp eyes.
"There is no complaint in the heart of the criminal, the heaven and the earth can be seen, the sun and the moon can be expressed. Wang Shouyi showed his loyalty, and then said, "If Your Majesty does not believe, the guilty minister, I am willing to show it with death." ”
"Whether you have a grudge or no grudge, I don't care. As long as you sincerely do things for Daqin, you will have merit in Sheji. No matter who I am, I will be rewarded for my merits, and I will be punished for my mistakes. Ying Zheng glanced meaningfully at the cultural relics below, his eyes flashing with essence.
"Your Majesty. The cultural relics officials were all in their hearts, and then shouted in unison.
"Wang Shouyi. Ying Zheng suddenly shouted.
"The sinners are here. Wang Shouyi immediately responded, not daring to be careless.
"I remember your great achievements in war, and you have made great contributions to Great Qin, and I make an exception to allow you to restore your surname, and your merits and demerits will be offset by each other, and you will be innocent from now on. I hope that you can make persistent efforts and make contributions to Great Qin next time, so that you can be added to the rank and become a knight, and your name will go down in history. ”
"The criminal minister thanked His Majesty for the grace of heaven, and in this life, he will fight for the Great Qin in all directions, and he will be on the battlefield with blood. When Wang Shouyi learned that he could restore his name, he was immediately overjoyed and grateful.
"Stand down!" Ying Zheng waved his hand and signaled.
"The minister retired. Wang Shouyi immediately retreated, and his heart was full of excitement. Li Xu, a descendant of Xiaoxiao, can finally return to the sect and be blessed by his ancestors.
"Your Majesty, the minister has something to do. Li Changqing walked out and bowed to Yingzheng.
Li Aiqing, but it doesn't hurt to say. Ying Zheng sat in his position since he was a child, and looked at Li Changqing with a flat expression.
"Your Majesty, please signal, what should we do with those overseas barbarians?" Li Changqing asked, with a deep humility on his face.
Ying Zheng glanced at him, and looking at the expression of this thing, he knew that he had already made up his mind. It's just to make a decision, the emperor only needs to make the most difficult decision, if he is close to everything, there are so many things in the world, even if he doesn't sleep, he can't deal with it anymore.
"The result of Jiuqing's unanimous discussion. Ying Zheng just asked lightly, and he had already guessed seven seven or eight in his heart, so he calmed down.
"The ministers and others jointly worked out the following decision, the imperial court should send officials to census the population of various places, and then reduce all these overseas barbarians to slaves, which can be divided into three types: upper and lower, serving as servants for the Great Qin, and serving the enemy's army in war. Inferior slaves can be promoted to middle slaves for meritorious service, medium slaves can be promoted to upper slaves for meritorious service, and only for meritorious service can upper slaves be promoted to commoners and enjoy the rights due to the people of Great Qin. Li Changqing reported, waiting for His Majesty's holy judgment.
"Exactly. Ying Zheng didn't think much about it and directly approved this decree. Under the strict social hierarchy system, it is better to drive Daqin. He was not prepared to abolish slavery, nor was he averse to it. No matter how glamorous the 21 st century is, the separation between the people at the bottom of society and the powerful cannot be avoided.
Where there are people, there is struggle, and where there are people, there are status symbols, and this is true in ancient and modern times, so who can violate this ironclad law? It is just a slogan that sounds good, and without the competition of status and status, there will be no struggle in human nature, and society will stagnate.
Therefore, striving for fame and fortune is the ironclad law that drives social progress. A poor person from a humble background dreams of getting a lot of money and becoming a rich man, and in order to get rid of his humble status, he spends his life fighting for this goal.
The pursuits of the rich and the poor are different, but they are the same in the general direction, they are just to obtain a higher status. Power is what the rich want to obtain, because when you have money, you will find that money is actually no different from paper, but it is just a paper that is branded with power.
Human nature is never satisfied, everyone is chasing fame and fortune, everyone has a goal in their hearts, from emperors and generals to peddlers and pawns, they are all working hard for what they want in their hearts. Emperors want to go down in history and conquer more lands. Or enjoy all the glory and wealth, drunk and beautiful people's knees, and wake up to the power of the world.
Ying Zheng understood that Great Qin was in an eventful time, and this kind of exciting method was undoubtedly the most suitable. In the future, when Great Qin conquered more and more lands, the role of slaves would undoubtedly be highlighted. However, he also greatly changed the slavery system, not as ruthless as the previous slavery system, without the slightest human rights, but slaves did not have the welfare treatment of the normal people of Great Qin, and treated them differently.
"Your Majesty. The faces of the civil and military officials all showed joy and shouted in unison. After all, there were a large number of slaves, but their group of people was the most profitable group of people in Great Qin. The slaves assigned were undoubtedly the best.
Ying Zheng and all the officials and people enjoyed the performances on the school stage, drank and talked together, and the grand banquet continued until dark and lasted until late at night.
At this time, the stars twinkled in the middle of the night, a bright moon hung high in the sky, Yingzheng stood in the pavilion of the Daxiong Hall of Xianyang Palace, standing with his hands in his hands, looking at the sky, his eyes were deep.
"Your Majesty. Li Changqing didn't know why His Majesty summoned him late at night, and he was a little apprehensive in his heart.
"Do you have eyebrows about the things I asked you to investigate?" Ying Zheng frowned, and his mind couldn't help but think of Chu Yunyu's face that overwhelmed the country and the city. At the beginning, it was said that the three-month appointment was good, but the two brothers and sisters actually broke the appointment, which made Yingzheng depressed. After unifying the four seas half a year ago and eliminating the threat of the Thirteen Interstellar People, he asked Li Changqing to find the two brothers and sisters, and he has always been obsessed with Chu Yunyu.
Li Changqing's face was a little ugly, and his heart was up and down, but he didn't dare not answer, so he could only stubbornly say, "Returning to Your Majesty, Chu Yunyu, the first beauty in China, has disappeared in Hongchen as early as two years ago, and the minister has already sent someone to investigate the clues given by His Majesty, but so far there has been no news, and the Chu brothers and sisters are like evaporating from the world, please give your Majesty more time." ”
Ying Zheng didn't look back, looked at the sky, his face showed disappointment, and then said, "I will give you another three months, no matter what means you use, even if you dig three feet into the ground and turn over the mountains and seas, you will bring Chu Yunyu to Xianyang." ”
"Your Majesty, is three months too hasty, the minister ......" Li Changqing was immediately shocked, this Chu brother and sister might be hiding in that deep mountain and old forest, even if they mobilized the power of the whole world, they might have no clue, but before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Yingzheng.
"I only look at the results, I don't care about the process, three months, if I can't bring Chu Yunyu to Xianyang, where do you come from, you can go there!" Ying Zheng looked at the bright moon, and seemed to be a little out of his mind.
"Wow. Li Changqing couldn't say the bitterness in his heart, and he also understood that this was a test for himself under His Majesty. His Majesty only looks at the courtiers' ability to do things, and never asks about the process, to make it clear, if he can't find the Chu brothers and sisters again, I'm afraid he will really have to go back to his hometown in Liaodong to recuperate.
"Stand down!" Ying Zheng's voice reached Li Changqing's ears, and he stood looking at the night sky with his hands in his hands all the time, and his figure looked very lonely and lonely.
[The recovery has been updated, but the body is still a little uncomfortable, and I believe everyone should know the feeling of recovering from a serious illness.] The body is still very weak, the whole body is weak, I insist on a chapter, and I will continue to work hard tomorrow, I hope I can write more!
