Chapter Seventy-Four: The Order of Grace
At this moment, hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the main hall.
Everyone couldn't help but turn their heads to look in surprise, but they saw the old general Wang Qian, pulling a burly and radiant young man who was walking quickly, it was the emperor's eldest Sun Ying.
"Your Majesty, Daxi—"
The old general Wang Jian walked into the main hall, swept his eyes, strode forward, and bowed to the first emperor with a happy face.
"Congratulations to Your Majesty, congratulations to Your Majesty, my Great Qin Emperor's eldest grandson Ying, and I have developed a battlefield weapon, from now on, my Great Qin cavalry will be invincible in the world......"
Everyone, including the First Emperor, couldn't help but lift their spirits.
Everyone knows the temper of the old general Wang Qian, who is a very calm and rigorous person, who is cautious in his words and deeds all his life, and never lies in his words.
For him to say such things, Emperor Sun Ying must have developed something amazing.
"I don't do my job every day, I toss around, let's say, this is another tossed something, and it actually alarmed General Wang-"
The First Emperor said teasing words in his mouth, but the corners of his eyes were full of smiles.
All of them:......
The first time I saw His Majesty's face showing off his grandson, everyone almost didn't know how to manage the emotions on their faces.
"A little gadget, Takahashi saddle and stirrups, just make people sit on the horse more steadily......"
"Takahashi Saddle and Stirrup ......"
Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly remembered the words of General Wang Jian just now, and had some guesses in their hearts.
"This is the Takahashi saddle and stirrup......"
The First Emperor took a group of ministers to the front of the main hall, and looked at Zhao Ying's Dawan horse equipped with a high bridge saddle and stirrups, and the First Emperor's eyes couldn't help but light up.
The rest of the group also saw the benefits of these two pieces of equipment.
It felt like—
It's so simple, I didn't expect it!
Speaking of which, these two things seem really simple, so simple that everyone thinks, why didn't I think of it at the time!
But a lot of things, that's it, if no one nods, you may never think of it, just think about the saddle and stirrups, there is nothing complicated, just find a craftsman to look at it, and you can restore it to you as it is, but before he appeared, no one could have imagined that he could play like this.
"I'll try—"
The First Emperor was about to get on the horse with the reins with great interest, and Zhao Gao subconsciously wanted to step forward and kneel down to give the First Emperor a step, but he didn't expect that Zhao Ying next to him had already stepped forward and supported the First Emperor's arm.
"Father, slow down......"
The First Emperor happily sat on the back of a horse with the support of Zhao Ying, and it could be seen that his concern for his eldest grandson was very useful.
Zhao Gao: ......
Like a puppy that has lost its owner's favor, it silently retracts its steps and retreats to the side.
However, no one paid attention to the loss in his heart, and at this time, everyone's eyes were on Zhao Ying and the First Emperor.
"Drive-"
The first emperor shook the reins with great interest, and the war horse under his crotch galloped out, and the crisp sound of horses' hooves resounded in the square in front of Zhangtai Palace.
"Take my bow and arrows—"
Running back in a circle, the First Emperor's eyes were excited, and he commanded left and right.
The guards on both sides hurriedly stepped forward and presented the strong bow of the First Emperor. Originally, the First Emperor used a three-stone strong bow, but last time the three-stone strong bow was given to Zhao Ying, and he himself took advantage of the situation to replace it with a two-stone one.
Today's body bones are not as good as one day at a time, and the use of three stones is already very reluctant for him.
Taking the bow and arrow handed over by the guards, the first emperor hit the horse like flying, and then, in the midst of everyone's dumbfounding, the first emperor let go of the reins, and actually opened the bow left and right on horseback, while galloping, while holding the bow and shooting arrows, the movements were smooth, as steady as Mount Tai.
This is the role of Takahashi's saddle and stirrups!
Everyone, thinking about this, everyone couldn't help but gasp.
What does this mean, it means that from now on, there are hundreds of thousands more in Great Qin, and they can be like the Hu people, with elite cavalry who can gallop on horseback while holding bows and arrows!
Great Qin's cavalry combat power suddenly increased several times.
"The minister tries, the minister tries ......"
When the First Emperor turned over and dismounted, Feng Quji, who was watching from the sidelines, couldn't help but be eager to try.
The First Emperor smiled and threw the reins of his horse to him.
"You can all give it a try, feel free to mention it, and see what else can be improved in the Takahashi saddle and stirrups that this stinky boy tossed out......"
All of them:......
However, they couldn't help the curiosity in their hearts, and they each stepped forward to experience it.
After the experience, everyone couldn't help but look at Zhao Ying, who was standing beside the First Emperor with a relaxed expression, and then turned their gaze to Meng Yi.
With the high-bridge saddle and stirrup invented by the emperor Sun Ying, it seems that the strategy of crossing the desert and detouring behind enemy lines proposed by Meng Yi just now is not impossible!
"Alright, since you're here, stay and listen—"
The First Emperor glanced at the eldest grandson beside him and commanded lightly.
Zhao Ying's face was bitter and he reluctantly agreed.
The others gasped one by one, and looked thoughtfully at the emperor Sun Ying, who had suddenly popped up recently.
Audit!
It's not really a political participation, but it's a great grace.
Even Hu Hai, the eighteenth prince who was favored by the First Emperor before, had never had this kind of treatment, and today's First Emperor's light and breezy arrangement, the meaning of which made this group of people feel awe-inspiring in their hearts and secretly think to themselves.
Your Majesty, what exactly does this arrangement mean?
But no one dared to question it.
Zhao Ying also listened to this group of bigwigs discuss state affairs for the first time, and he didn't dare to interject rashly, so he could only prick up his ears, listen carefully, and ponder slowly, not that he was arrogant, but that he knew his own catties.
Before he crossed over, he was just a low-level commoner, the biggest official, and just a team leader who handed in his homework, where did he understand these principles of governing the country?
In fact, he was listening, and others were also secretly observing this eldest grandson of the emperor who suddenly listened.
Today, he looked serious and thoughtful, but he was always silent, and everyone couldn't help nodding secretly, not saying anything else, but this calm heart is far beyond ordinary young people.
"On weekdays, don't you have a lot of ghost ideas, why didn't you talk just now......
When the discussion was over, everyone retreated, and only the old general Wang Jian and Zhao Gao, who served him personally, were left in the hall, and the first emperor looked at his eldest grandson with a smile.
"Without investigation, there is no right to speak, I have never had experience in governing the country, and I have never understood what everyone says, I only listen to some side details, and I dare not interject indiscriminately......"
Zhao Ying is honest and admits his shortcomings.
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
"If you don't investigate, you don't have the right to speak, if everyone in the court and China had this awareness, I wouldn't have so many troubles......
Speaking of this, he casually ordered Zhao Gao, who was waiting on the side.
"Go, bring a few copies of the notes in the pass, and present them to the emperor's eldest grandson to take a look......
Zhao Gao's heart became more and more awe-inspiring, walked quickly to the front of a few cases, picked up the top few points, and respectfully held them and handed them to Zhao Ying.
Zhao Ying thanked him, walked straight to the side and sat down cross-legged, opened it himself, and read it carefully.
The first emperor didn't care about him, just chatted with the old general Wang Qian, and invited their family to participate in the banquet held in Zhangtai Palace this year, I don't know what to think, the old general Wang Jian subconsciously glanced at Zhao Ying, who was looking at the music next to him, hesitated slightly, and then nodded down.
Seeing that Zhao Ying had finished reading the recital, frowning there and thinking for a long time, the First Emperor turned around with a smile and looked at the eldest grandson of the emperor.
"Well, if this matter were left to your discretion, how would you deal with it......"
It was a few counties in Guanzhong, and it was forwarded to the local magnates who asked the imperial court for permission to transfer the fields in the buying and selling clans.
During the Qin Dynasty, the imperial court was extremely strict in land control, and all the people's land was uniformly distributed and managed by the government, and the private sale of land was strictly restricted.
Therefore, if these nobles in Guanzhong want to transfer and sell land, nominally speaking, they must actually obtain the approval of the government.
In fact, this land policy only works for ordinary people, because the people's land is allocated by the government, and once there are events such as weddings and funerals, the government needs to reclaim the distribution in accordance with regulations.
After the first emperor unified the world, he did not exterminate all the nobles, and those nobles who were more aware of the current affairs still occupied a large amount of land and property and lived a luxurious and wealthy life, but compared with before, they lost their political aristocratic privileges.
Therefore, within them, they still implement the default rules between themselves, and as for the transfer of land and property within the family, they will not stupidly run to the government to ask for the approval of the government.
Isn't that hard to get along with!
Therefore, this note is a bit strange.
But for a while, he couldn't remember where the weirdness was, so he couldn't help but raise his head in confusion and honestly ask the First Emperor for advice.
"Father, as far as I know, the private land and property transactions between them have never really been forbidden, why do they want to do so and ask to hand this note to you......
Seeing that he couldn't understand the joints, the First Emperor was not disappointed, but instead pointed to the eldest grandson in a serious manner.
"I've read "Liutao", the so-called bustling world is all for profit; The world is crowded, all for profit. In this world, all things are disturbed and fighting, in fact, it is difficult to escape the shackles of fame and fortune, those remnants of the Six Kingdoms, who have done so many things, are actually just fighting for fame and fortune......"
Speaking of which, the First Emperor spoke earnestly.
"Think about it again, if I approve this performance, who will really benefit......
Hearing this, Zhao Ying couldn't help but suddenly realize, and almost broke out in a cold sweat.
"They are testing the attitude of the imperial court, and they want to wait for an opportunity to annex the fields of the local people......
When the First Emperor heard this, he smiled and nodded.
"It's okay, it's not too stupid - in fact, governing the country is not so complicated, many things, you just need to strip away those vain and high-sounding reasons, think about the interests behind it, and figure out who will benefit from it, who will benefit from it, and you will not be far from the right decision......"
Zhao Ying nodded thoughtfully.
This governing the world is really more complicated than I imagined, and if I am not careful, I will fall into the trap of some people. He didn't believe it, and he couldn't see the purpose of this recital, but they still went all the way to the case of the First Emperor.
If there is no greasy thing in it, he doesn't believe it.
But the First Emperor obviously did not mean to pursue this matter, but took it out and handed it to everyone to discuss together, and from beginning to end, there was no statement.
"I'm tired today, and it's up to you to approve this note—"
The First Emperor waved his hand lazily.
Zhao Ying: ......
Father, you're obviously lazy!
As everyone knows, just when he was complaining in his heart, the old general Wang Jian quietly glanced at this new disciple, and his heart was full of indescribable shock.
Zhao Gao, the commander of the CRRC Mansion, couldn't help but sneak a glance at the young man's stiff back, and thoughts were surging in his heart.
Approve the folds, or in front of the old general Wang Qian!
What does that mean?
The first emperor asked him to reply, but he was not hypocritical, just wrote a few words left and right. But when he unfolded the music and pinched the brush, he couldn't help but move in his heart, and suddenly remembered a very famous policy in later generations.
However, he was also a little unsure of whether it was feasible, so he was silent there. Seeing this, Zhao Gao hurriedly bowed down and walked over, knelt on the side, and meticulously ground the ink for him.
"Father, otherwise, we will give them a smooth boat and grant their request......"
The First Emperor raised his eyebrows and looked at this eldest grandson who did not play according to the routine.
Knowing that he must have a follow-up, waiting for his introduction.
"Father, the so-called beauty of gentlemen as adults, since they are high-spirited and want to give favors to their clansmen, and ask the court to allow them to transfer and sell the property and land of the clan, then why should we be this wicked person——"
Speaking of this, Zhao Ying raised his eyebrows and smiled.
"Let's just be a good person to the end, not only to allow, but also to support, in the future, all the children of the big clan, regardless of the concubine, can be in accordance with the law, a share of the clan property, is called the order of grace, how does the father think......"
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, and looked at his eldest grandson with strange eyes.
Wang Jian and Zhao Gao couldn't help but gasp, and their eyes at Zhao Ying were even a little frightened.
What kind of freak is this emperor's eldest grandson?
Is this idea still in the minds of young people?
This heart is so dark!
As soon as this policy came out, there was no doubt that the nobles of the world, who had a headache for the First Emperor, would suffer a fatal blow. This is a proper yang scheme, if you divide the family property, the family will gradually weaken, if you don't divide it, the family will be separated, and sooner or later it will be torn apart.
Who is not selfish in this man?
They are all the sons of a father, once there is a policy of sharing the family property and the legitimacy of legal inheritance, who is willing to let himself, including his own children and grandchildren, only be a domestic slave of the eldest son?
"The talent of my grandson can already govern a country!"
The First Emperor couldn't help but sigh sincerely, and then waved his hand at Zhao Ying.
"Get out of the way, I'll approve this note......
When Zhao Ying heard this, he quickly got up and got out of the way.
The first emperor sat cross-legged, stretched out his big sleeves, carried a brush, and wrote down a clear line of small seals under that note: Tui En Order!
The First Emperor did not write quickly, and he was very careful about his words.
After writing, he turned his head to greet Zhao Ying, who took the opportunity to be lazy next to him.
"Come and see, what's missing......"
Wang Jian couldn't help but jump his eyelids and was silent.
Zhao Gao couldn't help but tighten his scalp, and gasped in his heart.
