Chapter 17 The Great Tour is not over, and the First Emperor thinks of returning!

Right now, the Great Survey is nearing its end......

Except for the occasional assassination, the entire Great Qin seemed to be calm.

But the First Emperor clearly knew that all peace was only based on his own survival.

He could clearly feel the undercurrent surging in the world.

From the court to the court, the contradiction between the old military nobles and the new military nobles, down to the land of the Six Kingdoms that seems to have been conquered, the people still do not know the Qin Law, and the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms seem to have been deprived of their titles, but in fact they still control the local economy and politics.

It's inevitable.

With the unification of the world, the political and economic resources that can be divided through war have been exhausted.

The plate is so big, and the person who has mastered the top-level resources must not want the situation to change.

And the newly promoted military nobles, those who have not received the ticket to the upper class, those who have obtained the ticket but cannot go further, will inevitably be eager to continue to expand outward, and in fact this group of talents is the majority.

This group of nobles, who were large and generally concentrated in the middle and lower classes, and the old military nobles had a great political conflict.

In the past, the Great Qin national policy was still in place, the Six Kingdoms were not destroyed, and the Great Qin of the cultivation and warfare system would inevitably not stop the pace of conquest, so the small nobles had the advantage, and the big nobles sought change.

Now, the four directions of heaven and earth have been cut off, and under the constraints of natural conditions, the top-level nobles have gradually begun to take advantage.

No matter how much you want to fight, what can you do if you want to get credit?

Breaking the sky to fight against Beidi Nanban, now Daqin is doing this.

And then what? The richest known lands have been completely conquered.

And between the four fields in the world, it is also stormy.

The regression of the Great Qin Dynasty is inevitable, the first emperor will encounter assassination almost every time he travels, and the assassination of Bolangsha seven years ago, so far, the murderer has not been found.

The First Emperor knew that there must be something wrong at the grassroots level and in the Six Kingdoms.

Officials, nobles...... The scope is too large to be checked.

Many of the appointments of officials in the land of the Six Kingdoms came directly from the old aristocratic groups of the Six Kingdoms.

It is not allowed to take office in the place of origin, and take office in another place, but it is still a symptom but not a cure.

Of course, the First Emperor also wanted to use the old Qin people, but there was no way, there were not so many officials, and there were not so many official reserves. Moreover, it is also a question whether the old Qin people will be corrupted when they arrive in the homeland of the Six Kingdoms, where the political environment is relaxed.

The system of official governance in Great Qin requires a large number of officials to maintain, and the reduction of officials will inevitably lead to the situation of returning to the local government, and in order to maintain the large scale of officials and let the officials rule the local areas, it is necessary to use the old aristocratic personnel of the Six Kingdoms.

It seems to be stuck in a strange circle......

As for the common people, there are also many contradictions.

The car is on the same track, the book is the same, the weights and measures are unified, and the currency is unified.

Leaving aside the same track book and the same text for the time being, it may have little impact on the people, after all, the real people of this era are illiterate and do not have cars.

However, the mandatory unification of weights and measures and money did not give the people much time to react, and there were too many hands and feet to move on.

Weights and measures and currency reforms, combined with the not-so-loyal officials of the Old Lands of the Six Kingdoms and the old aristocracy that controlled the local economy, one can only imagine what would happen.

The bad government caused by officials and officials is a traditional skill to be pushed on the monarch.

In order to further destroy the legacy of the Six Kingdoms, the First Emperor banned obscenity within the world.

What is obscenity?

To put it bluntly, it is a festival and a sacrifice to the gods that the Qin State does not recognize.

Although Li Si and Emperor Shi took into account the local inadaptability, they did not simply impose the festivals and customs of Great Qin on the land of the Six Kingdoms.

Rather, after deliberation, combined with the current situation, it is a sacrificial faith festival with Daqin as the main and the Six Kingdoms as the auxiliary.

For example, Qu Yuan's sacrifice, the first emperor did not forbid it.

In fact, for local celebrities and ministers, as long as they are not sworn to resist the Qin faction, basically the first emperor did not prohibit sacrifices.

However, even so, it still dealt a great blow to local customs and beliefs.

For example, the customs and customs of wild cooperation in some regions were expressly forbidden because of the reform of the First Emperor.

And the people were ignorant, and all the uncomfortable conscription and policies were attributed to Qin.

Therefore, the people's hearts are boiling!

In addition, it is the most critical point.

Corvee!

There were too many conscripts during the Qin Dynasty!

Mausoleum of Qin Shi Huang, the Great Wall, Afang Palace, galloping roads in various places, expanding in South Vietnam, and forging ahead in Longxi......

The annual conscription is an astronomical amount.

Each of these is an extremely large project, and each of them cannot be completed in a short period of time, and even in the original history, it was not completed until the death of the First Emperor.

For the people of the six countries, the reform of weights and measures is a bit painful, but it can be endured.

Forced changes in customs can be forcibly adapted.

Severe forced labor, combined with high taxes, had made them unbearable.

The First Emperor knew it and saw it.

However, he was able to hold it down.

He knew very well in his heart that now Great Qin was full of contradictions from top to bottom, and it was all up to him to tie it up alone.

He also sought change, so there was the struggle between Chun Yuyue and Li Si.

In the end, he chose Lis!

Choosing Chun Yuyue, he can let go now.

Like Zhou Tianzi, he enjoys 800 years of national fortune.

Taking history as a mirror, no matter how bad Great Qin is, it is very likely that he will follow Zhou Tianzi and extend the royal family for 500 years.

The First Emperor wanted more!

The shame of the Zhou royal family with jade shirtless is vividly remembered, because the first emperor is the one who witnessed it and the initiator.

Daqin has reached the pinnacle in his hands, and he has lived up to expectations and fulfilled the long-cherished wish of the old Qin people of all generations.

Out from the East! To unification!

He has enough qualifications to be proud!

His Great Qin is far from being measured by five hundred years or eight hundred years.

So, he chose Lees!

Compared with following the example of the Zhou royal family, he is more willing to take a road that has never been seen before!

Unified, no one has ever been seen before!

And every step after that, there is nothing to emulate!

Even the lessons of the mistakes cannot be learned from history.

Every step, right or wrong, is full of unknowns.

And the great policies made by the first emperor, the Great Wall, the Xiongnu, Nanyue, Chidao, the unification of weights and measures, the unification of currency, the unification of writing, the unification of customs, and time have all been proven.

And the Qin Terracotta Warriors and Horses, built for their own selfishness, have also become historical treasures in later generations.

There is no doubt about the county system......

Perhaps, since the Zhou Dynasty, since the great unification, there is no dynasty that lasts for 800 years like the Zhou.

However, since the Qin Dynasty, all dynasties have taken unification as their own wish, so that the land of China has been saved from fragmentation, and there will not be many countries on a small land.

Only, where do you go from here?

The First Emperor didn't know much about the world, he looked at the world map, his fingers twitching slightly.

What is the future of Daqin? And on whom? He didn't even know who to choose as his heir.

Pride and confusion are not in conflict.

Everything in Great Qin seemed confusing, and the First Emperor thought about it, and even felt stuffy in his chest.

The heavy government affairs, as well as the uncertain future, his pride and conceit, together continue to squeeze his body and become his burden.

He peeled back a corner of the fog, but saw more of it.

His body became more and more tired, the First Emperor frowned, skillfully opened the small bottle next to the desk, poured out a brightly colored pill and swallowed it into his mouth.

The green tendons on his forehead jumped, his lips slowly turned white, his tightly closed eyelids trembled, and sweat swept across his face.

The First Emperor was deeply tired, knowing that the carriage and horses were tired, and with his physical condition in the recent period, he was afraid that this trip to the world would not be finished.

But...... Now that the trip has passed a lot, there is no big problem turning back now.

Where you haven't gone, you can make up for it next year......

He needs to show up from time to time to tell the world that he is still alive!

He knew that everyone was afraid of himself!

But he also knew that no one was afraid of himself enough!

"It's okay, counting the time to turn back, the three new grains are almost ready to be harvested." The First Emperor muttered softly.
