Chapter 14: Show Strength! (Ask for collection)
Ji Heng slowly sat up straight and said eloquently: "The imperial court actually anticipated this situation a long time ago, and responded to it very early. ”
Hu Hai was condensed and listened.
Ji Heng said: "At the beginning of Qin's domination of the world, Wei Wei, a native of Wei, suggested to the First Emperor to 'bribe his powerful ministers to disrupt his schemes'. ”
"This suggestion was eventually adopted by the First Emperor."
"So there is a situation in the back where Nei Shi Teng attacked Han with the body of surrender, got Han Wang An, took all his land, took his land as a county, and ordered Yingchuan, in addition to Nei Shi Teng, there are also many people such as Nei Shi Sheng."
"The Great Qin Dynasty sensed the problem very early."
"I also know that the aristocratic power in the Kwantung Six Kingdoms region is entrenched, even deep-rooted, and it has been deliberately targeted from the beginning, from the initial bribery with heavy money, to the use of other means to recruit surrenders, and then to appoint people to serve as officials, all to achieve the goal of dividing the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms."
"It's just not good."
Partition wall.
Fusu slightly forehead.
Nei Shi Teng, Sheng these descendants, he knows.
They used to be officials in South Korea, Teng for Han Nanyang fake guard, when the Qin army pressed the border, chose to go out of the city and surrender, and then for the first emperor to give a heavy responsibility, as a general to serve as the internal history, and then led the army to destroy the country, capture the old monarch, after Han annihilated, he was appointed as the county guard of Nanjun, mainly responsible for dealing with the affairs of Han and Chu in the southeast.
Teng was demoted to the status of a person, and finally promoted to a high position.
In addition to the first emperor's intention to buy bones, it is indeed as Ji Heng said, in order to divide the country.
Let them hate each other and not be united.
Ji Heng said again: "In addition to buying people's hearts and dividing the aristocracy, the first emperor also made a move. ”
"Strong !!"
"Showing strength?" Hu Hai was stunned.
What Ji Heng said earlier, he can probably understand, but what is Sheqiang?
Show the nobility to be strong?
Wouldn't that be counterproductive?
Hu Hai looked at Ji Heng suspiciously, and finally resisted and prepared to listen to Ji Heng's explanation.
Ji Heng didn't sell it, and said directly: "You may have heard that in the past few years, the First Emperor has toured many times. ”
"And the purpose of the parade is to show strength."
"Patrol the counties to show strength, to subdue the sea, to deter the Quartet."
"And the first emperor chose a more radical and tougher approach, that is, to 'show strength' to alleviate the situation of 'the head of the Qian' is not attached."
"Great Qin is the world won by force, and the people of the Six Kingdoms are also the most afraid of the Great Qin army, so the First Emperor used the way of parade to let the people of the Six Kingdoms feel the strength of the Great Qin army again, so as to deter the world, so that the old nobles did not dare to easily give birth to the heart of rebellion."
"Other than that."
"Every time the First Emperor parades, he will carve a stone to praise him."
"It's the so-called grace and power."
"The huge scale of the parade is a deterrent, and the carving of stone praise is a propaganda."
"The first emperor carved stones to preach to the world the ideal situation of Great Qin, so as to achieve the purpose of attracting nobles and leaders."
"It's just that it didn't work very well."
"It even led to a big problem."
"What's the trouble?" Hu Hai asked.
Ji Heng glanced at Hu Hai lightly and said, "How long has it been since the First Emperor has been on a cruise?" ”
Hu Hai thought about it in his heart and said, "More than three years." ”
Ji Heng sighed lightly and said: "Yes, it's been more than three years, at the beginning of the founding of the Great Qin, the First Emperor would go out almost once in the early years, but now he hasn't toured for three years, how can this not make the outside world think about it?" ”
"If you don't patrol today, you will see weakness, and you don't need to be a subservient animal!"
Hear the words.
Hu Hai's face changed slightly.
Naturally, he understood the meaning of the words.
Now that the First Emperor is no longer on tour, it means that the Qin court is weak, or can no longer rule the world.
The old aristocracy had already intended to restore the country, but after perceiving this discovery, it was only afraid that it would be more difficult to give birth to the heart of return.
Ji Heng drank all the wine in the pot.
Said lightly:
"You don't have to worry."
"The First Emperor will definitely notice it."
"I'm sure I'll be out on the cruises again."
"It's just that it shouldn't be in the next year or two, after all, the First Emperor still has some things to do."
"The road he paved for Fusu is not completely paved yet."
Hearing Ji Heng's words, Hu Hai's eyes were cloudy, with a bit of emotion, and said, "What else does the first emperor want to do for the eldest son?" ”
Ji Heng said lightly:
"I want Fusu to completely sit in the world."
"Now that the wine has run out, it stands to reason that I should not talk about it again, but since you want to understand it so much, I will say a few more words."
"When Fusu ascends to the throne, Meng Tian must be the prime minister."
"Li Si is a member of the Legalist family, and he is not used to it."
"The First Emperor knew that very well."
"Meng Tian is a soldier with a relatively pragmatic personality, and Fusu has a close relationship with Meng Tian, in order to better implement benevolent government in Fusu in the future, and also to win over Meng's family and stabilize the court, the first emperor will definitely let Meng Tian ascend the throne in advance."
"It's an exchange of power."
"The First Emperor used the Montessori position as a supreme minister in exchange for Montessori's support for Fusu."
"With the support of the brothers Meng Tian and Meng Yi, Fusu can basically ascend to the throne safely, but it completely depends on the Meng clan, which is definitely not what the first emperor wants to see."
"Therefore, in the next two years, there will be great moves in the imperial court."
"Some officials will go up, some officials will retreat, and eventually most of the officials in the court will be replaced by those who are close to Fusu."
"In the future, the court needs to rely on hundreds of officials to check and balance Montessori and avoid Montessori's power from being too powerful."
"The army has to be balanced by the Wang family, which is already declining."
"Wang?" Hu Hai was stunned.
Ji Heng nodded and said, "I know you have doubts. ”
"When I was in prison, I heard that there was a problem with the body of Wang Ben, the Marquis of Tongwu, with the current medical conditions, most of them will not survive this winter, Wang Jian has already passed away, with Wang Ben's death, the Wang family, which was very prosperous in the past, will be in decline with the naked eye."
"But emaciated camels are bigger than horses."
"Even if the Wang family declines, the remaining prestige in the army still exists."
"Therefore, it is very appropriate for the army to use the Wang clan to balance the Montessori."
"One is the most prominent family in Great Qin in the past, and the other is the most prominent family in Great Qin, both of them have extremely high prestige in the army, check and balance each other, restrain each other, and avoid the emergence of a dominant family in the army, this is what the First Emperor really wants to do."
"As for what the First Emperor will do, when Wang Ben dies, you will understand after a little inquiry."
"The First Emperor really worked hard for this eldest son."
Ji Heng shook his head.
I wiped my palms with a sweat towel and got up and walked outside.
When he was about to walk out of the hut, he seemed to remember something and said, "Master Ji, prepare more wine next time, I should tell you...... Why did the situation in Daqin deteriorate so quickly, if you have a way, you can go and learn about the dispute between the feudal and the county in advance. ”
"This is where the root cause of deterioration comes from!"
After speaking.
Ji Heng walked away.
Hu Hai frowned and sat on the seat.
In fact, he still didn't figure out why Ji Heng would say that the First Emperor would use the Wang clan to balance the Montessori.
Wang's current decline is obvious, how can he balance the Montessori?
After thinking about it for a while, Hu Hai didn't bother to think about it again.
When Wang Ben dies, everything will be clear by then, why bother with this thought?
And if the Wang clan rises, it will actually be beneficial to him.
After all......
His wife is from the Wang family!
