Chapter 668 Three words to make a man live for me! This great Qin will die at your hands sooner or later!
Lu Buwei doesn't quite understand why Ying Zheng thinks he is a conservative.
In an era when merchants are looked down upon, who can step up to the position of Prime Minister of Qin as a merchant will be a conservative?
As a foreigner, in the years after the death of King Zhuang Xiang, Lu Buwei controlled the affairs of the Qin Dynasty. Is it possible that Lu Buwei relied on concessions and compromises?
In the past, King Zhaoxiang of Qin brazenly destroyed the Western Zhou Principality where the Emperor of Zhou stayed, but he did not dare to touch the Emperor of Zhou at all, let alone the Zhou royal family to offer sacrifices.
But Lu Buwei dares!
When King Zhuang Xiang ascended the throne, Lu Buwei rolled up his sleeves and led his troops to brave the world's disgrace to destroy the Duke of Eastern Zhou, capture the emperor Huiwen Jun of Eastern Zhou, and completely put an end to the Zhou Dynasty's sacrifices!
Even if King Zhaoxiang is reincarnated, he still has to praise Lu Buwei: What a strong man!
This kind of person is actually a conservative in Ying Zheng’s eyes?
Perhaps it was Ying Zheng's decree that made Lu Buwei sadly leave the court, giving Ying Zheng a psychological hint that he was too heavy.
Or maybe, compared to Ying Zheng, Lu Buwei is really just a conservative.
After Ying Zheng was silent for a long time, he finally spoke: "I want to rule the world."
"Marquis Wenxin always discouraged me, saying that I was too radical."
"But now Marquis Wenxin is worse than the others."
Lu Buwei hated him and said: "The king's desire to dominate the world is not radical, but crazy!"
"If I say that my great Qin will not only unify the world, but also conquer the Xiongnu in the north, conquer the East Hu in the east, and conquer the Baiyue in the south!"
"What does your Majesty think?"
Lu Buwei is waiting. Ying Zheng said that this policy was too radical, and then told Ying Zheng that this was how he felt when he heard that Ying Zheng wanted to unify the world.
Lü Buwei hopes that Ying Zheng can understand Lu Buwei’s good intentions after thinking from his perspective.
Who would have thought that after Ying Zheng pondered for a while, he actually said thoughtfully: "If a few people can really dominate the world, we, the Qin Dynasty, will definitely continue to expand our territory."
< br>
"Donghu has been peaceful recently, so we can put it aside for the time being."
"However, the Xiongnu Baiyue, I must be defeated!"
Lü Buwei:...
Lü Buwei was even angry. He smiled: "This great Qin Dynasty will die in your hands sooner or later!!!"
At this moment, Lu Buwei didn't want to die at all!
He has to live!
He cannot just watch as Ying Zheng drags the utopia he spent half his life building into the abyss!
Ying Zheng stood up and glared at Lu Buwei: "Marquis Wenxin, you are so presumptuous!"
What do you mean by this?
Could it be that the great Qin Dynasty of a few people has to be controlled by you, Marquis Wenxin, in order to prosper, and if it is left under the control of a few people, it will not be far away from the country's destruction!
Lu Buwei also looked at Ying Zheng without giving in: "As a minister, you should directly remonstrate!"
As a master, a lonely and important minister, Lu Buwei cannot do anything to flatter Ying Zheng!
Ying Cheng was so numb that even the snacks in his mouth no longer tasted good.
Why are you arguing again?
Ying Chengyu hurriedly said: "Brother, calm down, calm down!"
"Since Marquis Wenxin dares to speak such arrogant words, let him speak clearly!"
"We have to listen to see why Marquis Wenxin dares to say such things!"
Ying Zheng subconsciously wanted to continue scolding, but then Ying Zheng saw Ying Chengyu half-bowed, clasping his hands into fists, shaking wildly.
Seeing Ying Chengyu like this, Ying Zheng had to suppress the anger in his heart and turned around to sit down.
Ying Chengyu looked at Lu Buwei again and said: "What the king wants is advice, not facts!"
"As a minister, Marquis Wenxin should explain things easily and help the king accept advice, instead of angering the king!"
Ying Zheng glared at Ying Chengyu speechlessly.
What is a fact?
Explain to me what facts are!
Lu Buwei's anger subsided a bit, and he asked in a stiff voice: "We can't kill all the people!"
"Local officials can't be killed all!"
"Even if our Qin Dynasty kills all the people in the world, there will be more people in the future."
"Even if our Qin Dynasty replaces it with a new one Criticizing local officials, these local officials will still make the same mistakes."
"Does the king think so?"
Ying Zheng nodded slowly: "Yes."
Lu Buwei asked again: "Although the people of Guandong all live in Guandong, their cultural customs and interests are different."
"Does the king think so?"
Ying Zheng said two words again. Lai: "Of course."
Lu Buwei nodded slowly: "Therefore, the people should not be the enemies of our Great Qin, and the local officials should not be the enemies of our Great Qin."
"We, the Great Qin, We cannot and should not establish such an enemy!”
"The enemies of the king are the few common people who disobey the king, and the few local officials who are illegal and corrupt."
"If we directly regard all the officials and people of Guandong as enemies, how can we, the Qin Dynasty, not be destroyed?" !”
Ying Chengyu’s eyes lit up and he blurted out: “So I, Da Qin, should kill a group of people, pull a group of people, and beat a group of people?”
Lu Buwei finally revealed himself and entered the imperial study room? The first smile after that: "What Lord Chang'an said is true!"
"What Lord Chang'an did in the old Chu land is an excellent demonstration."
"The Lord of Chang'an enlisted the heads of Guizhou, bandits, servants, and Jing clan in the Chu region to jointly kill the Chu royal family and their supporters, and then personally led his troops to knock on every door in the name of helping Chu restore the country. The people of a Chu land were shocked. "
"I heard this, and my joy could not be concealed by drinking for three days."
"This move of Lord Chang'an can at least protect the Chu land. There will be no chaos in ten years!”
“This policy was inspired by Lord Chang’an.”
Ying Chengyu was a little embarrassed.
He really hoped that the people of Chu would stand up and regain Chu. How could it be a deterrent?
Ying Zheng felt proud in his heart.
Is the widowed brother Wang smart?
If it weren’t for the help of the few people in the past, such a wise and brave brother Wang would have been killed by an old man like you!
Doesn’t this further prove that I am right and you are wrong! Ying Zheng said in a rather brisk voice: "I think so too."
"I have already decided on the strategy of making friends far away and attacking close by."
"Remote areas such as Wu and Yue will focus on pacification, while close areas such as the old Han and old Wei areas will focus on governance."< br>
“Wait for great governance in the near area, and then control the distant area.”
Lü Buwei subconsciously wanted to reprimand Ying Zheng like he reprimanded his disciples.
But just as Lu Buwei's expression changed, he caught a glimpse of Ying Chengyu half-bent again from the corner of his eye, clasping his hands into fists and shaking them wildly.
Lu Buwei finally endured it, shook his head and said: "Internal affairs and foreign war are not the same."
"How can an official ask the king to surrender at all costs?"
"How can the common people lead the king to order an attack?"
"Distance is important, but distance is not the only thing."
Hearing Lu Buwei's words, combined with the conversation between Lu Buwei and Ying Chengyu, Ying Zheng thought thoughtfully: "I think that officials and people can be further differentiated based on their identity, temperament, and interest demands."
< br>Lu Buwei looked at Ying Zheng with encouraging eyes: "Then who does the king think is the most worthy of the king's wooing?"
Ying Zheng frowned slightly and thought deeply: "The royal family of the king should be beaten."
“The sons of the important ministers of the motherland should be beaten.”
“The powerful men and women entrenched in various places are the main force resisting Qin’s laws and should be beaten.”
"Children of declining common people's families may be able to win over."
"School..."
After taking stock of the various forces, Ying Zheng's frown deepened.
Ying Zheng suddenly discovered that there seemed to be no people in Guandong who were worthy of being won over by him or who could be won over by him!
Ying Chengyu ate the snacks with peace of mind.
He is only responsible for allowing Ying Zheng and Lu Buwei to communicate calmly here today.
He has no intention of participating in the rest of the matter!
Lu Buwei said warmly: "In addition to these people, there is a group of people who always follow the king."
"If Da Qin is strong, they will be strong."
"Da Qin If they are rich, they will be rich.”
"They advance and retreat together with Great Qin, and they are the group of people that Great Qin should trust most!"
Ying Zheng subconsciously said: "The descendants of the clan are also nobles!"
But then Ying Zheng shook his head subconsciously: "No."
"The clan members cannot be fully trusted, and they must not be released from Hangu Pass."
"Most of the nobles live in Guanzhong, how can we govern Guandong? ?”
Lu Buwei said casually: "If the fields granted by the imperial court are placed in Guandong, and more fertile soil and good fields are given, they will naturally go to Guandong happily!"
Ying Zheng shook his head again: "If so, then the people in Guanzhong will be generals. It is becoming more and more scarce!"
"The people in Guanzhong are weak, and the people in Guandong are numerous. This is a matter of great unrest!"
The great unification of the Qin Dynasty was built with human lives. .
Under the supreme throne are not only the bones of the people of the Six Kingdoms, but also the bones of the old Qin people themselves.
Continuous wars have already made Dingkou in Guanzhong extremely thin.
That’s why the Ying Zheng in history would repeatedly enrich the population of Guanzhong through various methods such as forcibly recruiting merchants and dignitaries, and recruiting prisoners for corvee labor.
At the same time, Ying Zheng also dragged all those who were considered unstable by Ying Zheng back to Guanzhong for custody, so that the originally empty Neishi County became overcrowded.
As Ying Zheng wished, the number of Dingkou in the Guanzhong region skyrocketed, suppressing the careerists and assimilating many of their descendants.
Then, chaos breaks out in Kanto!
Lu Buwei sighed softly: "As early as when the king ordered all Chu'an troops who were willing to follow Chang'an to enter Qin to settle in Guanzhong, I had the intention to advise the king."
"The Qin territory in Guanzhong is the capital of Qin , The Qin territory in Guandong is also the Great Qin!"
"The king thought that by bringing many people from Guandong into Guanzhong, the world would be free from worries."
"But it is impossible for the king to move all the people in the world. In Guanzhong, there will still be chaos in Guandong. "
"I think that the king can move the people of Guandong, the powerful merchants, etc. into Guanzhong, but he should not move the heads of Guandong and Guizhou into Guanzhong. Instead, he should move some of them. The nobles entered Guandong.”
"Taking advantage of the gap between the powerful people in Guandong being moved into Guanzhong, we, the nobles of Great Qin, will replace them and become the new local powerful people, and then use their words to influence the surrounding Guizhou."
"In this way, Only then can the Guandong region be returned to Qin as soon as possible!”
In Lu Buwei’s view, it is impossible for the region to be without powerful people.
Then use the power of the imperial court to move away the powerful people in the area, so that the nobles of Great Qin can quickly become the new local powerful people, and let your own people fill this position!
These new powerful people are originally from the Old Qin. They are naturally closer to Da Qin and tied to the interests of Da Qin, making them more trustworthy.
These new powerful people can even use their influence and control over the local area to make more Guandong and Guizhou leaders change their minds and become Qin people.
This can also solve the problem of rewards for nobles, allowing them to obtain more and more fertile land.
Why not?
Ying Zheng refuted without hesitation: "Guanzhong is the top priority of the Qin Dynasty."
"If the people of Guandong are filled with dignitaries in Guanzhong, on the contrary, the nobles of Guanzhong will go to Guandong in large numbers. , this will inevitably lead to more thieves in Guanzhong and fewer people in Lao Qin.”
"If these common people and powerful people collude to cause chaos, what will happen to our Qin Dynasty!"
This question is difficult to answer.
Because no one can say that the people of Kanto at that time would not collude and cause chaos.
The Guanzhong area where the old Qin people are becoming increasingly scarce does not have enough Dingkou to quickly pull out an escort army.
But Lu Buwei calmly turned his eyes to Ying Chengyu who was twisting a piece of honey bean curd cake.
Ying Zheng was thoughtful when he saw this, and turned his attention to Ying Chengyu who was putting the honey bean curd cake into his mouth.
Ying Chengyu: Why do you think (chew~chew) this honey bean curd cake (chew~chew) is so delicious!
