Chapter Ninety-Seven: The Three Lighthouses of Great Qin
At night, Xianyang City is as calm and serene as ever.
Especially since Zhangtai Street was closed and the night sheng song of the music education department disappeared, Xianyang City has been quiet since nightfall.
And as the night deepened, the lights of thousands of homes went out one after another.
The sky in Xianyang City gradually darkened.
Then the lantern palaces of the imperial palace were extinguished one after another.
There was silence.
And in the dark.
There are three lighthouses that seem to be in the middle of the lonely night, looking for a way forward for this great unified dynasty that has opened up the world since ancient times.
Da Ri Fu.
For officials in the Da Ri Mansion, this seems to be just the beginning of the first sleepless night.
"Since the fifth class and the ninth stream are already divided into class levels, there must be a clear division, and there must be no nonsense."
"Waiyi sees the inner slave, and the status of the inner slave is high, so the outer Yi must bow down and worship the inner slave."
"If the inner slave has no function, he cannot command the outer slave."
"Worship with respect, for the sake of courtesy, if you exceed your authority and act without permission, it is a sin."
"In addition, since it is a new law, it will be reversed and restarted, copying the previous Qin law, which is no different from painting a snake!"
……
Taiwei Mansion!
The bright light is always on, and Guo Huaiyi is as far away as a bamboo pole.
Just ahead, on the steps next to a huge sand table.
The First Emperor,
The First Emperor folded his legs and bent his knees, crossed his arms on his knees, and rested his head on his arms, staring at the huge sand table in a daze.
At the next step.
Li Si, Feng Quji, Meng Yi, Feng Zai, Wang Qian, Meng Tian, and Wang Ben seemed to be the same as the First Emperor, sitting in a row and bending their knees.
From the perspective of a bystander, this is more like a stupid group of eight!
Stupidly looked at the sand table of the forty-two counties in the world.
"Your Majesty, there will definitely be chaos, once you use paper to balance the world's bachelors, and lead the world's scholars into Xianyang, the farther away from Xianyang, the more chaotic it will be!
In the past, the nobles of the Six Kingdoms never wanted to see my Great Qin gather literary scholars from all over the world to sort out the world and become the center of the world's bachelors.
Lao Chen thinks that there are three places, of which there are two in Chu, one in Jiangdong and one in Xuzhou, and Linzi must be chaotic! ”
Li Si got up gloomily, walked barefoot on the sand table, and said:
"After the destruction of Han, Han Wang'an rebelled in Xinzheng and responded to every call, but he was defeated by our army, and the old Han Xungui was gone."
"In the past, Wei was the first vassal state to change the law, and its national policy doomed it to be difficult for the noble family to form a deep-rooted influence in the local area."
"Although there were nobles in the land of Zhao in the past, Zhao was destroyed for a long time, and it was the closest to Xianyang, so it has long been resolved, so there is no need to worry."
"In the past, the nobles of the Yan Kingdom, with the escape of King Yan to Liaodong, they can no longer regroup, they can only get farther and farther away from my Great Qin."
"In the past, the country of Qi valued business and the people, and the wealth was hidden from the people, and several generations of people changed the thinking of the nobles of the Qi country, and the merchants were profitable, and now these Qi merchants have been like a stream."
Liston paused, and seeing that no one raised objections, he walked in the land of Chu, faced the First Emperor, and said:
"Only the former feudal monarchs of the Chu State have created the Chu State is full of feudal monarchs, and all of them are hereditary feudal monarchs, and the fiefdoms and feudal households are deeply rooted, and it is by no means possible to solve the problem by uprooting the three clans of Qu Jingzhao."
"When the old generals destroyed Chu in the past, although the Chu State was weak, it could still gather 600,000 soldiers and horses, and this does not include the private soldiers of the feudal monarchs in various parts of the Chu State!"
"Qu Jingzhao's three clans were demolished, and there is no need to worry about it, and they can't make any big waves.
However, in the land of Wuyue in Jiangdong, the people are fierce, and most of the nobles of the Chu State are active here, among which the Xiang family is the most, as the military leader of the former Chu State, it should not be underestimated.
The second place, the land of Xuzhou, the former Chu State's Chunshenjun, Dongjun, Pengchengjun, Shangjun, and Sheyangjun fiefdoms are all here.
Originally, it was possible to sort out these nobles step by step and slowly, but as soon as the paper came out, it would make these people feel a great sense of crisis. ”
"Forgive the old minister's presumptuousness, the old minister thinks that the land of old Chu needs to be like the old Han to have a fierce rebellion, so that all the nobles who have the idea of recovering the country will wave their flags and betray my Great Qin!
Only then can the war be settled. ”
"As for Linzi!
It is very likely that this is the first place of turmoil, and the appearance of paper will directly annihilate the Jixia School Palace, and if the old minister wields a knife, he must destroy the Jixia School Palace first.
But here, where literature is flourishing, the people are simple, and commerce is rampant, it can become the most stable place to lure them with paper and appease their hearts. ”
Li Si's voice gradually landed, and Wang Ben suddenly got up and said: "Your Majesty, the last general will ask for his life, sweep the land of Jiangdong, and destroy those nobles, so there is no need to worry about rebellion." ”
The First Emperor raised his hand, asked Wang Ben to sit down, shook his head and said: "There are too many feudal monarchs in the land of old Chu, and it is enough to destroy a battalion of soldiers and horses of the nobles in Jiangdong, but if you destroy one, I am afraid that it will make the nobles of the entire land of old Chu panic." ”
……
Department of Agriculture!
Tian Zhen's pestle was behind Yingcheng, his eyes were about to narrow into a slit and keep knocking his head.
After a stump, Tian Zhen looked up at Yingcheng a few more times, and when he saw that Yingcheng was still in front of him, he slowly stumbled down again, and his head was moving back and forth.
Yingcheng quietly swam in the sea of literature, and with the understanding of the distribution of acres of the agricultural department, the distribution of planting, the yield of the field, and the taxation, he finally had a clear concept.
The collectivization of agriculture was more suitable for the current Qin state than the privatization of land.
The imposition of taxes on collectivized agriculture on a 'li' basis can greatly eliminate the influence of excessive taxation on the capitation tax system and the tax-land system for single-family households.
At the same time, it can be as much as possible to reduce the impact of the soldiers' military exploits that have not been able to obtain the full amount of the fields.
"Tian Sizheng, what is the influence of this gentleman clan in the township, in the past farming, there are troubles!" Yingcheng asked again.
Suddenly, Tian Zhen raised his head and stared wide, tears dried up, and he replied with a yawn: "Within Guanzhong, there is basically no existence of the squire clan anymore. ”
"Even if there is, it has become the three elders, the township lord, the sifu, the pavilion chief, and the lieutenant chief, all of whom are appointed and dismissed by the county government at any time."
"Places such as Shangdang, Hanoi, Dai County, Nanyang, and Handan, in fact, for so many years, government decrees have been able to go down to the countryside, and there is no one who cannot obey them."
"The difficult thing is the southeast of Huaiyang, not the gentry clan, mainly those noble clans who are entrenched in the yang and yin, and it is not uncommon to conceal the affairs of the land people."
"It's also very difficult to get an official, and if you want to make accurate statistics, it takes a lot of manpower, material resources and time, and there is a lot of resistance."
"There are squires in Jibei, Qi County, Langya and other counties, but there is General Mengwu stationed in Linzi, even if there is chaos, it is still in a stable transition period."
