This time, the First Emperor neither argued with Ying Chengcheng as before, nor did he deny Ying Chengcheng.

He thoughtfully, trying to retract the sharp edge of his eyes, and with an observation rather than a scrutinizing gaze, he looked at the people around him who were mostly envious in their eyes.

At present, it is the busy time of farming, there is no government organization, and the heads of Qiantou do not go to farming and gather at the gate of Yangcheng to join in the fun. Except for the days when the offerings are distributed during the New Year's Festival, this phenomenon is impossible in Guanzhong.

The First Emperor thought thoughtfully, thinking about the city gate, Cui Guang, the county magistrate of Yangcheng County, who had served as a doctor of Taoism in the doctor's office, and said softly:

"Do nothing."

After the five thousand men and horses entered the city, they went about their own thing.

The person in charge of horse food took the warrant to go to the Yangcheng granary to get grain, and asked the Yangcheng County Lieutenant to get the horse grass.

The Qin army guarding was stationed in the open space that Cui Guang had found in advance, and went out in four batches in turn.

The ministers, concubines and others who accompanied them were free to move and were not controlled.

"Disperse."

Zhang Han stood in front of the carriage of the king of horses and asked Cui Guang and other Yangcheng officials to leave.

"No."

Cui Guang responded, turned his head and left with his head held high, without dragging his feet and water, ignoring Lang Zhong's face that made Zhang Han's face turn cold.

Zhang Han was a little angry, angry at the attitude of these Yangcheng officials—too casual, so casual that they didn't have enough respect for the First Emperor.

Even though, the five horses behind him were all loaded with stones, and there was no First Emperor.

After the first emperor changed into civilian clothes and ordered everyone not to follow, he walked with his brother Yingcheng.

No one had any objections, not even Xia Wuji and Zhang Han, who were supposed to protect the safety of the First Emperor.

Chang'an Jun, who has a gun, is the best in the world in fighting.

With the warrant of Cui Guang, the county commander of the cultivation county, the two of them can enter and exit any area of Yangcheng at will.

But soon, the First Emperor found that this warrant was a bit redundant - there were few places in Yangcheng that were closed and not allowed to enter, and most of them were open areas.

The First Emperor once again learned the Taoist concept of governing the country, and the governance method derived from inaction - the people of Yangcheng can go wherever they want, focusing on a free will.

The First Emperor disagreed, and in his eyes as respecting the law, this way of governing was simply deviant.

Everything in Guanzhong is determined by the law, and a "Qin Law" involves all and is all-encompassing. This and Taoism's quiet inaction and laissez-faire are completely two extremes.

It stands to reason that Legalism should be a mortal enemy of Taoism, not Confucianism. At least Confucianism has something in common, both of which are ways of governing the country by setting standards to limit the people.

The reason why the Taoism and the Dharma are at peace is because the Legalists don't look down on the Taoists at all.

In the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, wolf smoke was everywhere, and various countries fought special wars and expeditions, and the fight was inseparable. In such a world of great controversy, any country that accepts the Taoist idea of quiet inaction and cessation of war is tantamount to self-destruction.

Since Lao Tzu founded Taoism, Taoism has never been accepted by any country. The Taoist doctrine that was rampant in the early Han Dynasty actually had a very low status in the Qin Dynasty.

Not to mention that compared with the Legalists who are in the sky, Confucianism, Mo, Ming, Vertical and Horizontal and other doctrines are all above Taoism. It is part of the ideas taken from Lao Tzu, and the Yin and Yang doctrine that has been lost in later generations can stabilize Taoism.

In the court of the first emperor, except for the Legalists, they took the lead.

The miscellaneous family has Xiangbang Lu Buwei, the famous family has Shangqing Yao Jia, and the vertical and horizontal family has Shangqing Dun weak......

There is a specialization in the art industry, and in addition to Taoism, each of them has capable people as important ministers of the court.

And such a Taoist, who was completely ignored by the First Emperor, became a parent official in Yangcheng and was in charge of a place.

"Cui Guang has gone too far."

The First Emperor said suddenly.

He and Ying Chengcheng shuttled through the streets of Yangcheng and had been walking for a while.

He heard that the surrounding Qiantou was talking about it, and after he learned that the group of people who came was the emperor, the emotions shown by the people of Yangcheng were not fear, trepidation, and honor, but the exploration that the First Emperor had never imagined.

"I don't know where the Emperor of Qin lives, let's go and see."

"Look what he does, the ground hasn't been planted yet, I want to go to you."

"Look at what the emperor eats, drinks, and does."

"I guess the emperor doesn't eat millet and eats steamed buns. He usually has to farm the land, otherwise what he eats, even if he hoes the land, he may use a gold hoe. ”

“……”

With the ear power of the two, as long as you want to hear the gossip around you, you can get it into your ears.

"They have completely lost their reverence for me, and these people in Yangcheng will become chaotic people as long as they are slightly instigated by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms."

The First Emperor was serious.

As far as he knew, there were many county towns governed by Taoists in Korea, and they all lost their reverence for him as an emperor when they thought of coming to these cities like Yangcheng.

"Why should I be in awe of you?"

Ying Cheng's rhetorical question as soon as he opened his mouth made the First Emperor squint his eyes and seriously pondered whether to take back the Han land.

If the subordinate does not have reverence for the superior, he will not unconditionally obey what the superior says, and the superior cannot govern the inferior.

Being able to ask this kind of question, the First Emperor felt that the problem of his brother's own positioning was more serious and tricky than the problem of his eldest son Yingfu Su Yuren.

"Why did the imperial brother want Chun Yuyue to be Fusu's teacher, it was to let Fusu know what 'benevolence' is, right."

The First Emperor nodded.

Blindly iron and blood, it will make those who dare to give direct advice disappear, it will make the people of the world panic, it will let those who tend to be inflammatory, and it will make the common people suffer.

One person counts short, and everyone counts long.

No one can always make the right decisions alone.

I don't know how to write the word benevolence, and in the end it will only lead to the destruction of Great Qin.

"Brother Huang, are you sure you know what 'benevolence' is?"

Ying Chengcheng asked seriously.

"Since I succeeded to the throne, I have never killed a person in vain because of my personal feelings, and I have acted in a relaxed manner, with clear rewards and punishments.

"The next "Book of Expulsion" is wrong, and I apologize in front of the heroes of the world. I didn't listen to Wang Qian's words, and it was wrong to use Li Xin to recruit 200,000 troops to fight Chu, and I personally went to Pinyang to invite Wang Qian.

"Suddenly, I made him a secretary. Li Mu held a sword and wanted to kill me, but if I didn't kill him, I would also make him the Marquis of Che and give him a fief.

"Isn't it kind enough for me to do this?"

Ying Cheng shook his head.

"Corporal Lixian, attach importance to talents, how can this be called benevolence?"

"Then you tell me what benevolence is."

"Benevolence is to put people."

Ying Chengcheng swiped a stroke in the air, so that the First Emperor would know which word he was talking about.

"Adulthood."

Ying Chengcheng pointed to the pedestrians who walked into the restaurant, the guy drying rice outside the rice shop, the boy who was holding his father's hand and jumping around, and finally pointed to himself and the first emperor.

"Diners are people, guys are people, children are people.

"They are the same as me, you, and they are all human beings.

"Ren is to treat everyone as if they were like you and me."

The First Emperor stopped, turning his head sideways little by little, the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were very calm, and his face was unwavering.

He said calmly:

"Ying Cheng, you are really crazy."

Five thousand men and horses stayed in Yangcheng for two days.

On the first day, the two brothers wandered around Yangcheng County.

The two arrived at the school.

In the sound of the book, the First Emperor watched Ying Chengchan, who had exploded his identity, praised by the teacher, praised by the students, and even a Confucian student bowed three times and bowed to Ying Cheng Chan in public, calling him a saint.

These First Emperors didn't care, licking him was much more than licking Yingcheng.

What made the First Emperor a little concerned was.

The fathers and mothers of those students, the eldest father and mother, took eggs, air-dried meat, pickled vegetables, and many other school students saw the food secretly swallowing saliva and stuffed it to Yingcheng.

These people who don't say too many pretty things just thank you vigorously. The gratitude in many of their eyes overflowed and turned to tears. In the hurry back from planting half of the field, two shallow marks broke out on his face covered with dirt.

All the counties in South Korea, under the vague signal of Xinzheng and their own wishes, have carried out a complete and vigorous publicity of Yingcheng's deeds.

From the very beginning, the Chamber of Commerce was dispatched to lead the people in an uprising.

Then to the invention of movable type printing, the use of paper, and the establishment of schools, the precious knowledge monopolized by the aristocracy was completely opened.

Finally, it is necessary to gather the heroes of the world and rebuild the order of the Korean land.

Han Di can not know who Ying Zheng is, but he can't not know who Ying Cheng Cheng is.

In Korea, the three words Chang'anjun are far easier to use than the first emperor.

The First Emperor

Yangcheng County Commander Cui Guang also arrived, first expressed his gratitude to Ying Chengcheng, the first Taoist since the establishment of Taoism, and then proudly stated the development of Yangcheng - the population of the people, food reserves, crime rate, literacy rate, etc.

These real data made the First Emperor standing on the side feel a little unreal.

In fact, these data did not exceed the data created by Qianshou under the guidance of the Guanzhong Decree, and in fact they were a little less.

But this already made the First Emperor feel incredible.

For the first time, he had a different view of Taoism, and no matter how perfect the theory was, it was not as good as the practice.

Taoism has proved with practical actions that without high-pressure policies, output can still keep up, and social development is still moving forward.

"You are good to the people, and the people know.

"They are close to me, talk to me, have no fear of me but have love, if I let them turn against Qin, the emperor brother said they will be against me?

"The great Shang died, the ancient sage Boyi, Shu Qi did not eat Zhou Su, avoided Shouyang Mountain to pick roses and eat, and finally starved to death. It has been recited to this day and is a model of keeping the will of the festival.

"Brother Huang, if everyone in the world is Boyi, Shuqi, who can go down to the Qin Kingdom?"

The First Emperor was silent for a moment and said:

"I'll talk about it all after reading it."

The two arrived at the only ancestral hall in Yangcheng.

This ancestral hall spontaneously built by the people of Yangcheng does not even have a statue, it is very simple, and there is only one brand - Chang'an Jun Yingcheng Cheng.

The tributes are not delicacies from the mountains and seas, but are all corn and other things that are commonly eaten by the people.

It covers a small area, but the ancestral hall of less than 100 square meters is full of people, and there are always people who enter and worship sincerely.

The first emperor entered the ancestral hall of his brother, and under the expression of "you don't want to be too outrageous", he learned from the people around him and worshiped twice piously.

"I hope Chang'an Jun will ensure that my brother is cured of epilepsy and will no longer go crazy."

Zhao Gongming, who is already the secretary of the Great Qin, has been waiting in this ancestral hall since he entered Yangcheng.

As soon as the two brothers Ying Zheng and Ying Chengcheng entered, Zhao Gongming noticed it. The two of them can change their appearance, but they can't change their inner breath.

Zhao Gongming didn't make a sound, and he didn't jump out until the two brothers left.

He looked at the back of the two of them leaving and smiled bitterly.

"I can't see through any of them."

The two went to the Yangcheng County Mansion.

The subordinate officials are very idle.

The two went to Yangcheng Prison.

There are only five inmates in a county town.

The two of them traveled around many parts of the city.

On the second day, the two brothers went out of the city to the fields near the county seat.

The peasants who worked one by one, and the ridges that were reclaimed one by one, made the First Emperor believe the data reported by Cui Guang before.

The First Emperor looked at the hard work of those peasants, as well as the yearning and joy on their faces, and felt very disobedient.

When the farmers in Guanzhong farmed the land, they worked just as hard, but in addition to numbness on their faces, they only had patience.

"Yangcheng collects very little taxes, most of them are kept by themselves, they do things for themselves, so they can laugh, and they have hope for their future.

"Guanzhong, I don't need to say it, you know what the situation is, Brother Huang."

The First Emperor didn't make a sound, how could he not know? He had given those decrees.

The peasants in Guanzhong had to work hard for 12 cents to barely get enough to eat, and most of the grain had to be collected as grain tax.

The farmers in Guanzhong are working hard every day to live, and they know that there will be no change in their lives.

"This is the first year after the food shortage, so they will work so hard, do you know what will happen to them the next year?"

The First Emperor shook his finger at the peasants toiling in the fields.

"Very few of them still toil, as they do now.

"Most of them will make careful calculations, deducting the grain tax to be handed over to the government, and then calculate the food to eat. Add a number to this number of grains that will give them peace of mind. They will work according to the calculated amount of grain, and their grain production will be reduced.

"This is not an empty phrase, but a case study of the past, most recently, such as the country of Zhongshan, which has low taxes.

"Grain production is reduced, taxes are reduced, and grain depots are empty, which is a sign of the country's demise.

"Don't forget, how Zhao Guo died.

"If Zhao Guo's food is enough to continue to support it, they will not replace Lian Po."

The First Emperor folded back with his hands on his back.

"Every time you slaughter more dogs, you are the most negative reader.

"You open up the books and teach the children to read and write.

"Father and Mother of the children are grateful to you because they are illiterate, they do not know reason, and they do not have many distractions in their hearts. You can be grateful from the bottom of your heart for giving their children the opportunity to become nobles.

"You may be able to command these people, but if my army is overwhelming, guess how many people are willing to die for you under your command? It took 600 years for the Shang Dynasty to produce two Boyi and Shuqi who did not eat Zhou Su.

"And when these children grow up, as long as I am not happy with you. These children will criticize you for the sake of standing in my favor and for the sake of profit, and even put a butcher's knife on your neck.

These are not empty words, they are also proven by history, Guo Kai, who has great kindness to Zhao, sold Zhao for personal gain.

"I saw this kind of maneuvering method of yours when I was in Xianyang, and those unconcerned veterans did give me a little shock at that time, but that's all.

"It is okay to control thousands of people, but not tens of thousands of people."

[Why do you have to think about driving people?] If I tell the imperial brother now that I have never done this to control people, the imperial brother will definitely say that I am crazy. ]

Ying Chengcheng sighed lightly in his heart and chuckled.

"Brother Huang's court is not only the Legalist, but also Yangcheng County."

The First Emperor's eyes lit up.

Although he is not 100% sure of Yangcheng, it is an indisputable fact that Taoism was not inferior to Legalism in the early days of governance, and even far surpassed Legalism in people's emotional control.

What the First Emperor is best at is to touch the bypass and use it for me.

During the trip to Yangcheng, the First Emperor was generally satisfied.

"I'm looking forward to it."

The convoy set off and departed from Yangcheng.
