Squeak-——

As the door opened, the house was empty.

Ji Heng looked at the empty courtyard, but his eyebrows were furrowed.

Hu Hai's desire to compete was something he didn't expect.

He had actually persuaded Hu Hai before, Hu Hai didn't have that ability, nor did he have that strength, even if he really won the battle, it would be difficult to sit firmly on the emperor's throne, but he just thought about it, and he did underestimate the temptation of power to people.

He himself can't talk about fame and fortune, how can he persuade Hu Hai?

In addition, there is also Zhao Gao instigating on the side.

It is human nature to have a desire for power.

He's had a bit of it before.

He stood with his hands in his hands, just standing at the door of the house, quietly looking at the courtyard, under the breeze, the chess cloth tied under the mulberry tree had been lifted, which seemed to indicate that the current situation in Daqin had entered a new stage.

Ji Heng just looked at it calmly.

He saw a lot of things through the faded chesscloth.

Jin Ge Iron Horse, splendid mountains and rivers.

"The chess pieces have been arranged, and the next step will be handed over to the First Emperor." Ji Heng suddenly moved his gaze upwards, and finally looked at the Xianyang Palace in the distance, at this moment, it seemed that the chess cloth in the courtyard also fell to the Xianyang Palace with his gaze, and fell in front of a majestic figure, the man calmly glanced at the chess cloth and looked at Ji Heng.

The two just looked at each other.

Ji Heng said: "Ten thousand years is too long, just seize the day." ”

Hearing Ji Heng's words, this figure seemed to be in a trance, and finally didn't know what expression it revealed, and then disappeared from Ji Heng's sight.

Ji Heng whispered: "The big chess has been arranged, waiting for the king to fall." ”

"After the salt and iron, as long as the nobles of the six countries are not too incompetent and ignorant, they can basically understand the intentions of the imperial court, and they can also deeply understand the matter of salt and iron, and the further improvement of Guanzhong's strength, they may be a little unable to sit still."

"As the saying goes, there are priorities, and so is the attitude of the world towards Daqin."

"Different people see things differently."

"Now only the merchants and the nobles of the Six Kingdoms are in a hurry."

"One of them was strangled by the "Law of Commerce" and "Law of Work", and they had a deep grudge against Daqin, but the power of the merchants in the world was weak, and it was difficult to shake the world in the slightest, even if there was trouble in front of Qidi, but it was not Qi Shang who really made trouble, but the nobles of Qidi."

"With the imperial court's action, Qi Di has been calm."

"The businessman can't afford to make waves."

"They don't dare, and they don't have the guts."

"The only thing they hope for is that the world can be chaotic, or the control of Great Qin over the world will be further weakened, so that they can break free from the influence of the "Law of Commerce", and even hope that the nobles of the Six Kingdoms can overthrow the Qin court, but with the fall of the salt and iron matter, it will not be visible in a short time, and the merchants will pursue profits, and after weighing the pros and cons, they will not act rashly."

"Merchants don't have to be afraid."

"The nobles of the Six Kingdoms are different."

"They are full of fear and hatred for the Qin court."

"They can't see that the situation in the Qin court is half better, and now this turmoil in Guanzhong, I'm afraid that it will also spread to the world, and the nobles of the six countries will be able to sit still for a short time, but with the situation in the army, I'm afraid that they will become more and more unable to sit still, and not everyone can keep their senses."

"Change in Kanto!"

"On the restlessness of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms."

"As long as the nobles of the six countries begin to take action, the imperial court will have the opportunity to implement some new policies on the grounds of strengthening the control of the Kanto, and use the Kanto incident to suppress some of the controversies of the imperial court, and then reduce the resistance faced by the court and China."

"It's a change on the surface."

"As for the shadows, I can't see it."

"Even Hu Hai was completely unexpected."

Ji Heng chuckled and shook his head.

In his original idea, he just changed depending on the situation and then made follow-up measures.

What is really foreseeable is only the incident created by the East Meeting.

As for the rest, he could only take one step at a time, but what he didn't expect was that as soon as his thoughts were spoken, Hu Hai gave him a variable.

Ji Heng raised his head and looked at the white sky like jade, and his heart was full of emotion.

This is the principle of the world.

The only thing that remains constant in the world is change!

It's unpredictable, it's hard to fathom.

Ji Heng walked out of the door, returned to the courtyard, and continued to lie on the recliner.

He gave Hu Hai three tips.

It's not a whimsical idea, it's just some sparse and ordinary words.

The first is to drink hot water and eat hot food.

The weather in Lingnan is hot and humid, the jungle is dense, and the forest is full of miasma, because of the climate, the corpses in Lingnan decompose quickly, and it rains, and then forms pools of stagnant water, and most of the water sources are polluted after the corpses are corrupted.

So he suggested that Hu Hai go there and drink more hot water and eat hot food.

The second is not to interfere in military politics.

People are self-aware, Hu Hai is going to pay money, and he has no ability and qualifications to lead the army, so don't put yourself too high, the conditions in the South China Sea are difficult, if you provoke the dissatisfaction of the soldiers, then Hu Hai will become the target of public criticism.

As for the third.

Ji Heng thought about it, it shouldn't be needed.

He pillowed his head with his hands and relaxed his body, but he thought of Zhao Tuo in his heart.

"Zhao Tuo, can you still keep your original intention now?"

Ji Heng didn't think much about it.

After all, Hu Hai is the heir of the first emperor, even if he does anything wrong, he basically can't get out of anything, and he doesn't bother to think about it.

The wind rustled and stirred the treetops.

The other side.

Fusu returned to Yonggong.

This chat with Ji Heng shocked him a lot and completely broadened his horizons.

He has a new perspective and understanding of the way of governance in the world.

He was sitting on his back.

reviewed what Ji Heng said in his mind, suppressed the faint ripples in his heart, picked up a blank bamboo slip from the case, and began to write down what Ji Heng said one by one.

Therefore, it is prudent to write it down.

Half an hour.

Fusu has written dozens of bamboo chips.

The bamboo pieces are densely stacked with neat and uniform Qin seals.

Fusu looked at it and nodded with satisfaction.

He sighed: "Mr. Ji, he is really a great talent, if it weren't for Mr. Ji's order, I probably wouldn't have imagined that the law of governance in the world could still be in this way, but unfortunately Mr. Ji appeared in front of me too late, if it could have appeared earlier, when Daqin was founded, maybe Daqin would not have fallen to the current point." ”

"Time is also fate."

"Maybe this is the fate that Great Qin is destined for."

"And what can I do about it?"

Fusu shook his head.

He spread the bamboo slip on the table again, took out a blank bamboo slip again, carefully copied the contents on it, and after making sure that it was correct, he took it to the fire and roasted it, completely dried the ink on it, and carefully closed the bamboo slip.

He put the bamboo slip on his sleeve and prepared to write what Ji Heng said to the first emperor for the first emperor to see.

He's not what he used to be.

If it was the previous Fusu, I am afraid that he would not be in a hurry to write these things to the First Emperor, but would have thought of discussing them with someone and asking about the feasibility of these ideas, but he is not what he used to be now, and he will not boldly tell others what he wants to do.

Everything should be done with caution.

Not much.

Fusu went to Xianyang Palace.

After telling the eunuchs outside the palace what he meant, he respectfully handed over the bamboo slips, and then stood outside the hall, waiting for the first emperor to summon him.

Time passes.

Fusu felt that today was a long time.

He didn't know how long he had been standing outside the palace, and when the eunuch sent an order and the first emperor summoned him, he faintly felt that his legs were a little numb, he patted the corner of his clothes with his hand, sorted out the placket, and entered the hall with a solemn face.

As soon as he entered the main hall, he bowed directly and said, "The son of the minister Fusu sees his father." ”

Ying Zheng's face was as usual, his fingertips were on the bamboo slips, but he was not in a hurry to speak, as if he was thinking about something.

Looked at.

Fusu didn't dare to disturb either.

"Heaven and earth are all working together, and heroes are not free," Ying Zheng whispered, and after a long time, he moved his gaze to Fusu and asked, "What does Ji Heng say about this sentence?" ”

Fusu was stunned for a moment.

At one point, I was a little suspicious of my ears.

He did remember this sentence in the bamboo slip, but isn't the content on the bamboo slip more valuable than this sentence?

He was puzzled.

But he didn't dare to ask, so he had to say: "Mr. Ji doesn't have much explanation for this sentence, just said that if Daqin wants to succeed, the follow-up may depend on the time and place, and it will no longer be completely controlled by the imperial court as in the past. ”

"Do you think Great Qin needs to see the color of heaven and earth?" Ying Zheng said coldly.

Fusu's face froze, and he hurriedly said, "Erchen doesn't dare." ”

Ying Zheng glanced at Fusu coldly, and finally took his gaze back, and said, "Ji Heng's ideas are too whimsical. ”

Fusu Road:

"In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures should be performed."

"Daqin has been harsh for a long time, and it is not a big break to solve it, and the people at the bottom are tired, and it is not suitable for any more action, so there is only another way, and Erchen thinks that what Mr. Ji said is a good policy, if the court can seize the opportunity, I am afraid that it will solve the shortcomings of squeezing the court for several years or even decades in one fell swoop, which should be a blessing for the world."

"Great Qin's luck!"

"Father, please enlighten me."

"Do you have such a high opinion of Ji Heng's idea?" Ying Zhengdao.

Fusu said: "Erchen doesn't dare to hide it. ”

"Erchen thinks that Mr. Ji's talent is far beyond the world, even if he is Prime Minister Li Si, I am afraid it is far from it, Mr. Ji's thoughts and thoughts are considered very comprehensively, and he will not speak in a hurry, and it will hardly affect the bottom too much, so that the people will rest, and it will be beneficial to the country."

"How can the sons and daughters not be tempted?"

Fusu told the truth.

He has blind trust in Ji Heng's views.

Because Ji Heng is trustworthy.

And if it weren't for Ji Heng's help, Daqin wanted to achieve 'solid foundation', but he didn't know when, and even if he continued to insist on going his own way, he would not be able to consolidate his foundation at all, and he could only let the world erode, and then lead to chaos in the world, and then the whole world would be opposed, where should Daqin go?

Ying Zheng frowned slightly.

He said in a condensed voice: "I wrote on the song, you want to go to Beiyuan? ”

Fusu was stunned, and hurriedly said: "Father Qi, the son has indeed written, at present, Daqin has collected a lot of money and grain through the 'official mountains and seas', as well as follow-up measures, and the sons think that these money and food should be distributed to the soldiers in a timely manner to win the hearts of the army, so as to truly realize the 'solid foundation of Guanzhong'." ”

"The son is the eldest son of the father and the emperor, and he should do such important things himself."

"That's just the book."

"I hope my father will grant permission."

Fusu bowed down again, his voice trembling a little.

Ying Zheng did not speak.

Just looked at Fusu coldly, as if he was thinking about something.

The temple was quiet.

Fusu subconsciously held his breath.

The pressure on him from the First Emperor was too great.

He simply couldn't parry.

Ying Zheng didn't seem to be conscious at all, and still stared at Fusu and didn't speak for a long time.

Just when Fusu was about to lose his support, the eunuch who was originally waiting outside the palace suddenly entered the hall and said, "Father Qi, Prince Huhai asks to see him." ”

"Xuan." Ying Zheng's eyes were uncertain.

Soon.

And Hu Hai went into the temple.

He glanced at Fusu, who was sweating, and was still a little excited, but immediately became serious, and saluted the first emperor respectfully: "Erchen Hu Hai sees his father, his father has every opportunity, please take care of his body more often, and his son is really worried about his father's body." ”

Ying Zheng said coldly: "Tell me something straight." ”

Hu Hai lowered his head, not daring to look directly at the First Emperor, and said, "Erchen. Erchen also came back from Mr. Ji and was very tempted by the method proposed by Mr. Ji, but Erchen knew that Erchen's ability was not enough to share too much worry for his father, so he wanted to go to the South China Sea for his father. ”

"Father, please grant permission."

After speaking.

Hu Hai knelt directly on the ground.

Ying Zheng said coldly: "You two brothers, but just say it in private?" One goes to Beiyuan, and the other goes to Lingnan. ”

Hear the words.

Fu Su and Hu Hai hurriedly shook their heads.

How dare they take this word, if they make their father dissatisfied, I am afraid that something will happen at that time.

Ying Zheng's eyes swept back and forth on Fusu and Hu Hai, and he kept looking at the two of them, and after a period of contemplation, he nodded, and said, "You two brothers, since you have the heart to worry about state affairs for me, how can I not be allowed to do it." ”

"One south and one north, I'll hand it over to the two of you."

Hearing that the First Emperor finally nodded, Fusu couldn't help but be overjoyed.

He was actually very worried that the First Emperor would disagree.

Now that the First Emperor spoke, the big stone in his heart finally landed, but the First Emperor finally nodded, and it was not because of Hu Hai, which made Fusu frown slightly, and he was even more wary in his heart, and he was also very curious, why did Hu Hai give birth to this idea?

Could it be that Mr. Ji suggested it?

Hu Hai ignored these, and when he heard the first emperor's agreement, he also hurriedly shouted: "Thank you for your father's grace." ”

Ying Zheng obviously didn't want to say more, and after nodding in agreement, he let the two leave.

Outside the temple.

Hu Hai left excitedly.

Fusu stood in place, looking at Hu Hai like this, hesitated for a long time, and did not open his mouth to ask, and finally, after Hu Hai's figure completely disappeared, he walked away.

Inside the temple.

Ying Zheng once again spread out the bamboo slips presented by Fusu.

He didn't look at it carefully from beginning to end, but just spread out the bamboo slips, pondered for a while, and said to the outside of the hall: "Come on, go and invite Zongzheng." ”

With the retreat of Yingteng, some time ago, the first emperor had appointed a new Zongzheng.

The current Zongzheng is Yingben.

Ying Ben is over sixty years old and has a very stable personality.

Not much.

The new Zong Zheng Yingben arrived in the hall.

Ying Ben said: "The minister Ying Ben sees Your Majesty." ”

Ying Zheng raised his head slightly, with a smile on his face, and said: "Zong Zheng doesn't need to be so polite, you just took over the Zongzheng Mansion not long ago, I shouldn't have summoned him in such a hurry, but I just wanted to ask Zong Zheng about something, so I invited Zong Zheng here." ”

"The minister is His Majesty's courtier, and it is the duty of the courtier to share the worries and solve problems for His Majesty, please speak up for Your Majesty." Ying Ben smiled uncontrollably.

Ying Zheng said: "I want to know, what have these sons of mine done in the palace recently?" ”

Ying Ben pondered for a moment, and said directly: "Back to Your Majesty, the eldest son has been busy with the affairs of "Business Law" and "Gong Law" recently, while the second son is busy sorting out books. ”

"During this time, the second prince and others have been obsessed with this."

"Compile the easy-to-learn "Book of Words"?" Ying Zheng frowned, he gestured with his hand on the bamboo slip in front of him, and soon, he found a correspondence in one of the places.

Ying Ben didn't dare to slack off, and hurriedly said: "Back to Your Majesty, the "Character Book" compiled by the second son and other sons, compared with the "Way of the Officials" studied in the school, is very different. ”

"What the minister said is true, please see it clearly."

Ying Zheng said: "Zongzheng's words, how can I not believe it?" ”

"They are so hearty, they think they are perfect."

"Zongzheng can take more care of them during this time, and let the officials of the Word Survey Department participate more, so that the "Book of Words" compiled by these boys will come out as soon as possible, I am a little curious now, these boys can make the "Book of Words" in the palace."

"Haha."

Ying Zheng laughed out loud.

Ying Ben smiled bitterly and had to nod yes.

He was curious.

Why did His Majesty suddenly pay so much attention to the second prince and others?

And what is the significance of this "Book of Words"?

The teaching content of the Daqin School has long had a fixed paradigm, and it is more in line with the reality of Daqin, even if the second prince sorts out the "Book of Words", it is difficult to get the approval of the courtiers, and this tossing is a complete waste of time and energy.

Pointless.

Yingben continued to speak.

After clarifying all the sons' information one by one, Ying Zheng inquired a little, and made some advice to Zongzheng, and let Zongzheng leave.

Inside the Xianyang Palace.

It's quiet again.

Ying Zheng closed the bamboo slip on the case and said softly: "Ji Heng, you really know me well, and you can even say that you like it, with your ingenuity, how can you only do this?" Especially after consolidating the foundation, there are too many directions for Great Qin to choose from, and the reason why you propose these methods is entirely out of me. ”

"You deliberately chose a shortcut."

"You're worried about my body, if you go step by step, my body may not last that day, if it really can't last that day, with Fusu's ability, it will be difficult to continue to execute, and you are worried that it will fall short in the end, so you deliberately said these to Fusu, in order to grab time."

"Before there is a problem in my body, solve the existing shortcomings of Great Qin."

"But I'm on it!"

"I also want to see if the Great Qin I created single-handedly has a destiny."

"Heaven and earth are all working together"
