Chapter 132: Zhao Si: That minister can only die for His Majesty!

"Your Majesty, when Shang Jun changed the law, the territory of Daqin was still very small, so whether it was the accessibility of the decree or the popularization of the law, in fact, the left and right were only in Guanzhong, the big nobles, the old clans, most of them surrounded Xianyang, three or four days, the decree could be reached in less than three or four days, even if it was the farthest place, it would not take more than a month to arrive.

Shang Jun's change was to go in, and he told them door to door that Daqin's law had changed, and Daqin's law had changed.

But now that Great Qin dominates the world, how far are the nobles from Xianyang?

The farthest place can only go back and forth in half a year, whether it is the transmission of the king's order, or the punishment of crime according to the law, the time is long, the news transmission is slow, the distance is private, and the slow is changing!

Therefore, the current Great Qin, if he wants the government decree to be accessible, and wants the law to be the same, he can no longer walk in according to the Shang Jun's practice, and tell them from door to door that the law of Great Qin has changed, and that the law of Great Qin has changed, and telling them in other people's homes that they will implement the laws that are not good for them, they will naturally become selfish and change their minds.

What today's Great Qin should do is not to walk in, but to let them come over. ”

Zhao Si has been working hard to read these days, and he basically reads some of the works of the hundreds of schools, especially the relevant books of the Legalists, and Zhao Si even memorizes the books of Shang Jun, not to mention asking for advice from the donkey every day.

Zhao Si is now regarded as the personal secretary of the First Emperor, although Zhao Si has no way to make decisions when dealing with government affairs, but when the First Emperor is dealing with government affairs, Zhao Si has to help the First Emperor check the classics and past years.

And these have also become a new source of nutrition for Zhao Si.

Today's Zhao Si dares to stand here and make nonsense, and even denies the wrong direction of the current Great Qin's centralization, not only because Zhao Si stands on the shoulders of history, but also because Zhao Si is now a genuine man with ink.

"The nobles of the six countries gather in the place, they have a large number of subordinate concubines, many disciples, and even private soldiers who are willing to die for them. They would even think that without them, Great Qin would have no way to govern the place.

The mountains are high and the sea is far away, they occupy the fertile land, do not pay taxes, do not obey the king's orders, do not abide by the laws of Qin, and are lynched at every turn, isn't this a betrayal of Great Qin, a betrayal of His Majesty?

Is it because they did not blatantly propose the restoration of the Six Kingdoms that they should be forgiven and tolerated for this?

For them, they should be relocated to Guanzhong, let them lose their fields and private soldiers, and let the old Qin people surround them around them, hanging long swords over their heads, only in this way can they settle down. ”

"It's just that this move will inevitably provoke a revolt from the old nobles of the Six Nations...... If you are a little careless, it is not known to repeat the old story of Changping Jun......" Zhao Si said seriously.

"The old nobles who need to be relocated are all influential in the local area, and they may not have elected the six royal families because of this, and therefore have the idea of restoration. and even the division of the local ...... Raise troops to compete with Great Qin......" Zhao Si said seriously.

This is essentially a struggle by the central government to disenfranchise local forces.

But where there is a struggle, there is no one who does not shed blood and does not resist.

The nobles are not fools, they are good people in the local area, and they want them to move their families to Guanzhong with a piece of edict.

It is impossible for them not to understand that when they arrive in Guanzhong, they are swordsmen and I am fish and meat. Nor can they give up their land, their slaves, their power, their prestige.

No matter how high-sounding this kind of thing is, in the end it is a real struggle for interests and power, and there are a hundred high-sounding reasons, no matter how righteous you are, it is useless to be for the country and the people.

"You're worried about the restoration of the Six Kingdoms?" The First Emperor looked at Zhao Si with a smile and asked.

"The Six Kingdoms naturally don't dare to restore, they are not fools, they have already been destroyed by the Qin State once, and it is the old nobles of the Six Nations who push them to carry out the restoration."

"If they were really so loyal and patriotic, they would have already begun to restore the Six Kingdoms, and the current Great Qin would not be so peaceful, and there would have been constant strife and strife for a long time, and what Your Majesty encountered would not have been a simple assassination.

At the end of the day, it is they who will not be content with being deprived of their power and wealth.

Previously, Great Qin recognized their titles, recognized their fields and property, and even needed to rely on them to govern the country, and the restrictions on them were just a new Qiantou military order, their power and wealth were still there, and the losses suffered were minimal, so they naturally would not be willing to openly rebel against Great Qin's rule and use their lives to restore the Six Kingdoms as kings and pioneers.

Your Majesty has already destroyed the Six Kingdoms once......

The unification of Great Qin relies on the division of tigers and wolves!

Therefore, the hundred schools are willing to serve the destiny of Great Qin!

However, in Chen's view, the so-called Mandate of Heaven is always only within the range of Qin's crossbow. ”

The First Emperor nodded, looked at Zhao Si playfully, and said, "The Mandate of Heaven is only within the range of the Qin crossbow?" I've already destroyed the Six Kingdoms once, so what are you afraid of? ”

"Qianshou!" Zhao Si spoke in a deep voice.

"They have local power, fame, wealth, and vast fields, and the head of Qiantou will be bewitched by them because of this, and the fame of Great Qin, out of Guanzhong, is indeed not very good...... Daqin is not afraid to prune branches and leaves, no matter how many branches and leaves are cut, it will not affect the growth of the trunk, on the contrary, there is some gain, but it cannot leave the land and rain.

If Qin loses the people, he will gain the people, and if he loses the people, he will gain the people.

In the past, Great Qin retained their power, prestige, and land, essentially letting them implement the Qin law and Qin law to oppress the people, so that they could become the spokesperson of Great Qin and the practitioner of Great Qin's law.

The current Great Qin, if you want to prune the branches and leaves, you must change the image of Great Qin, and choose to abandon them while gaining the support of the people.

If there is no Qiantou willing to pay taxes for them and fight for them, even if they are restored, they will not be able to stir up any storms. Zhao Si replied.

"Gain the value and lose the people, lose the value and gain the people......"

"Your Majesty, what the head of Qiantou has done is just trying to survive...... This is also the main reason why the minister proposed to reduce the price of salt. ”

"Hmmm......"

To tell the truth, the First Emperor was tempted!

He's really tempted!

He also has every reason to do these things, a capable person who can abolish the feudal system and adhere to the county system, and create a precedent for great unification.

In the face of the strategy of centralizing power, there is no reason not to be moved.

Throughout history, those who are eloquent and strategic will control the power of the world.

The First Emperor has never been a person who likes to compromise, and the king who likes to compromise may be a benevolent monarch with a good name, but he can never be an emperor through the ages.

"If you were asked to do it, what would you do?" The First Emperor looked at Zhao Si playfully and asked.

Zhao Si's heart suddenly ......

This kind of thing that defies the world's condemnation, to be honest, Zhao Si only dares to talk about it, but does not dare to do it.

Because Zhao Si really can't do it well......

His conclusions, plans, and theories of action are directly copied from history, but history only records the macro trend, but does not introduce the details.

Not to mention that the times are still different, and the situation faced is also different.

Just like Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's Tui En Decree and Migration Order, it was established that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty was himself an ambitious king, and the central army was enough to suppress the local government to be able to carry it out smoothly.

Put it in the Song Dynasty to suggest that the rich move and the family moved, I am afraid that it will change the dynasty in minutes.

To do this kind of thing, it is necessary to have the right time and place, the king must have great ambitions, and the ministers must have skills and ability.

And even so, there are still many dangers, the king will face the risk of losing everything by accident, and the courtiers must also have the determination to die with their bodies and feed their swords with meat.

Throughout history, how many good deaths have there been for those who have changed the law?

Shang Ying was punished by a car split, and Chao was beheaded in half.

Chao Cuo forcibly cut the feudal domain, taking a great risk. Chao Wrong's father's persuasion was ineffective, and he committed suicide by taking poison.

So the question is, does Great Qin have the ambition to be called the first emperor of the ages?

Of course there is, the First Emperor sat in front of Zhao Si.

Zhao Si knew the danger, but he didn't have the determination to die for his life.

As a modern person with refined egoism, it is Zhao Si's moral quality to ensure his own safety and clothing while benefiting others and the people.

But Zhao Si has never made preparations and thoughts of martyrdom.

So Zhao Si decisively confessed......

"Your Majesty...... The minister didn't dare to do it, and he couldn't do it well. ”

When the First Emperor heard this, he glanced at Zhao Si with a strange face and smiled dumbly.

"Wasn't you quite bold when you said that?"

"Excuse me...... It's not to do, since ancient times, the unity of knowledge and action is the most difficult, and the minister can only know but can't do it now. ”

The First Emperor was interested in Zhao Si's remarks that he was greedy for life and afraid of death, and carefully examined the little guy who was ashamed in front of him but now directly confessed.

"What if I don't let you carry out the relocation order?" The smile on the First Emperor's face slowly converged, and his sharp gaze looked directly at Zhao Si's pupils.

Zhao Si was shocked!

The First Emperor's face was serious, and he didn't look like a fake!

God is pitiful, Zhao Si can't be unified with his knowledge and action, this is no longer a question of whether he dares or not, but whether he can, even if he catches the ducks on the shelves, in the face of such a national policy, with Zhao Si's current ability, he can't understand.

At present, most of Zhao Si's knowledge comes from books rather than practice, and it is easy to make suggestions, after all, there is history to learn from, but it is very difficult to do practical things.

"Your Majesty, the minister is not capable of ......"

"You proposed the relocation of the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms, who will do it if you don't do it?" The First Emperor frowned slightly.

When Zhao Si heard this, the First Emperor didn't seem to let go of his thoughts.

……

He's really just giving a suggestion...... Zhao Siren was a little numb, but he looked at the first emperor's expression that did not seem to be a fake.

Zhao Si could only answer solemnly with a bitter face: "That minister can only die for His Majesty." ”
