Be quiet.

Be quiet.

The entire Dazheng Palace.

Everyone became incredibly quiet.

Don't know what to say.

Even after hearing Yingcheng's words.

A little clearer.

Yingcheng is lighting a fire, but he doesn't know how to extinguish it.

Restriction of imperial power.

Boy.

Not to mention that His Majesty the First Emperor is angry or not angry.

This is to formulate a 'four-character policy', and then the rest of the content is all up to everyone's imagination.

No one spoke at this time, for fear of having something to do with Yingcheng.

And in the face of Yingcheng's remarks without any scruples.

The First Emperor pondered for a long time and said, "Who will tell you Aiqing, how about these four strategies to stabilize eternity?" ”

Be quiet.

Still quiet.

Even Li Si and Feng Qujian did not react at all.

I don't want to ask me, I don't know.

"Li Si, let's talk about it!"

Seeing that no one expressed his opinion, the First Emperor directly named him.

Li Si panicked in his heart, raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, the Great Law has ordered these four strategies for eternity, and the ministers are stupid, and their eyes are not as good as those of eternity, so they can't make any opinions." ”

He didn't dare to speak at all, even if he had doubts, he didn't want to speak.

Yingcheng is bold and can have no scruples, but he doesn't dare.

"Feng Quji?"

Seeing this, the First Emperor asked Feng again.

Feng Qu shook his head and said, "Forgive the old minister for being stupid and not knowing his understanding!" ”

"So, Feng Aiqing also agrees with restricting imperial power?" The First Emperor asked suspiciously.

Feng Qujian panicked in his heart, and said in a shocking voice: "Restricting imperial power, nonsense, since ancient times, imperial power has been supreme, and there has been no change, and the monarch and ministers are always the same, and they cannot be changed." ”

"If there is no master in this world, wouldn't it be the chaotic war of the princes in the past."

Let's talk about it.

Feng Qujian did not forget to praise: "Your Majesty is the Holy Monarch of the ages, the lord of the world, and the ministers should look forward to Your Majesty." ”

After listening to Feng Quji's reply.

The First Emperor still didn't react, looked at Wang Ben again, and asked, "Wang Ben, tell me about it?" ”

Wang Ben raised his head, shook his head and said: "The last general is dull and not good at political affairs. ”

He agreed with the military disarmament.

But the problem is four ultimate questions at once, and he doesn't dare to answer them.

Ask left and right.

Seeing that they all avoided answering.

The First Emperor frowned, passed on Yingcheng's long and 10,000-word Four Strategies for Ten Thousand Ages, and said, "Take a look!" ”

】

"Today's discussion, shielding the surroundings, freedom of speech, you are all my humerus, but it doesn't hurt to say it."

Let's talk about it.

The First Emperor paused and continued, "Let's talk about it first! ”

"The first one, abolish the capital, set up a system to accompany the capital!"

"In this regard, from a long-term point of view, this system is indeed better than the fixed capital system, first, the reason why the four extremes are poor is simply beyond the reach of the imperial court, and it cannot effectively restrain the distant territory."

"Second, after hundreds of years of sedimentation, the land of Guanzhong has actually formed a situation of being full of nobles and overcrowding, and even the land is also a place where all eyes can see.

However, as long as you skim the world, it is not difficult to find that in fact, the scene of the large population is only Guanzhong, in addition to Guanzhong, there are many, many lands in a state of desolation.

There are even large areas of land, and no one has even cultivated them, and the reason for this is that the economic and population center is located in Xianyang, and since Xianyang is the center, it has formed a scene from dense to sparse. ”

"Third, such as the Jiangdong chaos, although it has been pacified, but the Xiang clan is not allowed to go and return to continue to troubles Jiangdong, Mengwu's ability, and even the imperial court to send the ability to govern the world, it will take at least ten years to work hard to completely stabilize Jiangdong.

However, if the military and political center of the court is moved to the land of Jiangdong, within three years, Jiangdong will be the next Guanzhong. ”

In order to truly understand this, the imperial court sent a large number of officials directly under the central government to inspect the Quartet. Being in Guanzhong is beyond the reach of Jiangdong's governance, but being in Jiangdong is handy for Guanzhong's governance. ”

"Fifth, in fact, since I ruled the world, the time to inspect the world is far more than the time in Xianyang, counting these five inspections, I established the northern defense line, stabilized the land of Yanzhao, prepared to build the Jibei granary, formed more than 1,000 warships to patrol the rivers, lakes and seas, took over dozens of copper mines, discovered seven large salt ponds, beheaded more than 1,000 corrupt officials, and at the same time carried out drastic rectification of the nobles in the troubled places, and moved the nobles of the six countries to Guanzhong, why is this?

I also felt during the inspection, sending patrol envoys, patrol envoys and other officials, the imperial court will not hand over all the military and political power to these officials, and these officials only carry three or five people, although they have the power to inspect, but they are also constrained by all parties, unable to thoroughly investigate the inspection, one for three or five years, but the effect is not great, the reason is because there are too few inspectors they carry, and the inspection of things is very large. ”

"However, what I have done, I have a complete set of soldiers and horses, and I have more internal attendants, court officials at all levels, intelligence investigations such as nets, and where I have done, I do not need local officials to provide investigations, I can investigate myself, and I know all parties well."

"What I have done is not just me, but a giant horizontal fishing net, which I can recognise as a traitor."

Be quiet.

At this time, more than many important ministers quieted down.

Even Yingcheng fell silent.

Didn't expect it.

The First Emperor actually agreed to accompany the capital system.

"But!" But at this time, the First Emperor shook his head: "Labor moves the people!" ”

"My travels cost 500,000 minutes of grain and grass for each trip, and this is the reason why I streamline my travel, if I let the entire court accompany me, it will be difficult to maintain the heavy cost of traveling."

"Moreover, although I am on patrol, there are still consul generals and political officials in the court to deal with the world's major affairs, although I have asked for instructions, but as I get farther away from Xianyang, this government affairs has become prolonged and extremely inconvenient.

But if you accompany the capital system, in the midst of migration, how to deal with the world's government affairs, this is less than one month, and at most three months and half a year. ”

"At the same time, even if you accompany you to move the capital, if you want to take away anything, take it all away, I am afraid that hundreds of thousands of people may not be able to move away from the Xianyang Treasury for a year, especially the National Treasury Mansion and the grain depot, it is impossible to move away."

You can see it.

The First Emperor was thinking very seriously.

And when the Li Si people below saw this, they also quickly circulated the slender four strategies of Yingcheng.

The First Emperor, on the other hand, continued:

"As for the military dismantling system, I believe that it is beneficial to our Qin State, no matter at any time, a strong military force is the foundation to ensure the stability of a country."

"Under the military dismantling system, our Qin State can no longer forcibly recruit troops and command a million-strong army at any time, and this greatly reduces the expenses of the imperial court."

"But."

"There is a serious problem in this, which greatly delays the military response, and in the past, if there was chaos, troops could be directly dispatched to quell it."

"However, under the military disbandment system, it is necessary to gather troops first and then quell the chaos, at least dozens of days, and at most a month to gather troops and horses."

"If there is really chaos, this time span is too long."

"Moreover, military strength is not comparable to individual bravery, it requires a long time of running-in, it requires the tacit cooperation of continuous training of soldiers, and it is even more necessary for soldiers to strictly implement military orders and not disobey."

"Once the soldiers are dismissed, this will make the soldiers no longer familiar with each other, and the soldiers will have a sense of relaxation, and the consequences will be even more serious."

There was a pause.

The First Emperor continued: "Divide the clan and establish the ancestral tripod. ”

"There are many problems in the clan, but it is good to establish a human ancestor."

"Dividing clans can indeed weaken the Xungui clan and weaken the power of various clans, including the power of the clan, but the ancestral hall is not lightly divided, it is a symbol of a clan, if the clan is divided frequently, it means that the ancestral hall needs to be divided frequently."

"And more importantly, the biggest core of the clan is the common wealth, including the wealth that the clan should have, once separated, how to divide it is the biggest problem, if the division is uneven, the clan is divided from each other, and even hatred is not conducive to the Qin State."

"The clan is too large and the court can suppress it, but it causes constant clan fighting, but it is not something that the court can mediate."

"And for now, the court is very chaotic now, and it is more conducive to stability to implement the law with fewer disasters!"

As he spoke, the First Emperor glanced at the silent Yingcheng and said, "As for restricting the imperial power, the world has decided that the imperial power must not be shaken in any way, and once shaken, the consequences will be more serious than you think." ”

"Instead of making a fuss about restricting imperial power, it is better to think about how to cultivate a Shengming king who can rule the country and the people with virtue and reason, and on the basis of the primogeniture inheritance system, let this eldest son know how to advance and retreat, know how to appoint, be loyal and treacherous, manage state affairs, and settle the world.

That's the finishing touch.

Knowing that he doesn't show his attitude, in the face of this kind of thing, these people below don't dare to express their opinions easily.

Immediately, the First Emperor also nodded and said: "You Aiqing can express your opinions, since you are discussing the policy of governing the country, I should absorb the words of a hundred schools of thought, and will not pursue the speech." ”

"At the same time, I have never blocked out the hearing and hearing, and I will say whatever I want."

It can be said that this has been made very clear.

It is necessary to let many important ministers not hold back the discussion of the four strategies proposed by Yingcheng.

Whether it is for or against, it is reasonable.

It's good to be controversial.

"Your Majesty, the old minister has a discussion." Seeing this, Li Si had no scruples.

Over here.

He had no choice but to instruct the horse pawns to explore the way first, so he could only go up on his own: "As Your Majesty said, the capital is a symbol of a country and cannot be abolished. ”

"But as the Great Law Decree said, under the centralization of power in the imperial court, all the resources of the world are inclined to the capital, and the farther away from the capital, the poorer it is, and the poor are fickle as the truth!"

"Therefore, the old minister believes that it is not advisable to abolish the capital, but it is also feasible to accompany the capital, and there is nothing wrong with Youdu, it is better to compromise it, and the imperial court regularly dispatches the capable ministers in the palace of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries to accompany the government of Youdu and preside over local government affairs, just like the joint inspection team of the Thirteen Divisions, the joint inspection team of the Three Princes and Nine Secretaries, which can directly command all local military and political affairs."
