Can you live forever

Chapter 390 The first emperor's succession, the world is shocked

Regarding the fact that the emperor hired a power leveling agent, the entire court was ignorant, and the whole world was a little bit ignorant.

If it is said that other emperors must first understand the ministers, control the court, and balance power...the first emperor did not do it, he just told the entire court what to do.

Officials of sufficient grade, no one dares to tell a lie when the imperial prelude is right.

Even, dare not not try our best.

Because where you did not achieve the expected level, the emperor actually knew it clearly, and the two beatings that were neither serious nor heavy made people sweat profusely and panic.

And once you surrender all your loyalty and have a clear conscience, the emperor will give you the greatest forgiveness, making you feel like a spring breeze.

Any courtier, in front of him, will have a feeling of unfathomable wisdom.

He never takes the initiative to propose anything, and only gives you a direction to solve the problem. When you report, he will point out the key points and the better solution direction in a calm manner.

His eyes seem to be able to see all talents.

He didn't care about his reputation in the imperial examinations, and the selection of talents was like an antelope's horns, but after looking at it, he only felt that it was extremely subtle.

He maximizes the efficiency of talents, but does not rely on talents at all. The implementation of various policies, looking back, actually echoes each other, making people feel like falling into a huge cage without knowing it.

Under the rules he made, everyone can only work hard, and there is no room for sloppyness.

His will is fully carried out, and no one can resist it.

From the capital to Northern Zhili, and then to the entire north, in just one month, the entire empire was mobilized by him, and everyone carried out his will non-stop.

Harvesting and averaging of interests.

Everyone is cautious, not daring to take a step beyond the threshold, but they feel extremely safe under the rules.

In front of him, who had to go through a long struggle to equalize land and exempt taxes, and the stubborn resistance of the entire northern gentry, it seemed as if they did not exist.

The [-] Qin troops had clearly been stationed in the capital and had not moved.

But under the whole world, people feel that there are Great Qin King Masters everywhere...

The Xuanda Frontier Army expedition to Jianzhou arranged by Xia Yan did indeed successfully bring warmth to Jianzhou, but the frontier army, which should have been in chaos, did not dare to make any mistakes. The Governor's Mansion was formally established.

Tatar, Wala, Kazakh, Timur, Yilibali, Kaqi, Tianzhu, Nibala, Burma, Siam...

The border countries cooperated extremely, and even formulated a garrison system for cooperative defense management.

Only one cavalry went north to Tatar. After Dayan Khan first surrendered, he took troops from various countries and began to parade.

It was a very mysterious feeling.

They knew that Qin Shihuang was acting as the monarch in Daming, and their fear suddenly rose. Obviously, the situation had not changed much from before, but it gave people a feeling of being out of breath.

Because, as long as anyone who understands history knows it.

After the first emperor unified the six countries, how many things did they do in just 11 years? They didn't feel at all that they were safe if they were far away.

If it is said that Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty's "Counters can go, I can go" is a strategic attitude towards the Xiongnu, which means that no matter where you are, I must maintain the posture of attacking ability.

Then the first emperor has only two words-conquer.

Baiyue far enough?Too much miasma in the deep mountains and old forests?Troop supplies can't keep up?Then send 50 troops, gather the strength of the whole country to maintain the logistics, use the Qinchi Road to ensure land transportation, and repair the Lingqu Canal to ensure water transportation.

War has always been a battle of national power.

I can afford it, how about you?
No one doubted Qin Shihuang's determination, and no one doubted whether the will of the first emperor could be carried out. It was only because he was there that the entire empire knew what would happen and how to do it from top to bottom, from inside to outside.

and so.

What he commanded was never a court, nor a certain system, but hundreds of millions of people.

This is Shihuang.

……

Donglin Academy.

Under the pressure of the first emperor, Zhan Ruoshui finally came to visit Xu Jie, and the two played chess, Zhan Ruoshui said in a deep voice: "Now is not the time for you and me to be angry."

"too fast."

"Ying Zheng replaced Jiajing and has already done too many things in just one month. We can't just sit idly by like this. Otherwise, when Ying Zhengping pushes us over and we are captured, we will have to follow in Xia Yan's footsteps! "

After the court meeting that day, Xia Yan was dragged to Caishikou and executed Ling Chi.Gloriously became the first Chief Assistant of Ming Dynasty to be Ling Chi.

Different from Jiajing.

The pressure given by Qin Shihuang not only frightened the foreigners, but the gentry in the south of the Yangtze River also became ants on the hot pot, which was a kind of strong anxiety from top to bottom.

Xu Jie took his time and said, "Don't worry, Emperor Shi Huang used power to reach the pinnacle, but after all, he only replaced Jiajing in governing."

"Three months is not enough for him to attack Jiangnan."

Zhan Ruoshui was not so calm, he said excitedly: "If you don't do anything for three months, what about three years? Or even a hundred years? If Yingzheng doesn't return to Jiajing, under this situation, Jiajing won't be able to regain the throne at all. .”

"This is not a problem with the imperial court, but the hearts and atmosphere of the entire empire."

"terrible."

"From the officials to the grassroots, everyone believes in him and takes the initiative to act according to his will... Look at the Law of the Ming Dynasty."

"Even with Deng Wengu, there are not many people who are willing to believe in the law. Many people are forced to take the legal route."

"And now..."

"A tenant who holds the Daming law dares to tie up the landlord and take him to the capital."

"It's not that there were no such things during the Hongwu period, but the frequency of the two is completely different. Let's not talk about the north. We have this kind of thing happening all over the south of the Yangtze River. Nanjing doesn't accept it. It's unfair. They go to the capital!"

"If this goes on like this, it won't take three years for Jiangnan to be completely defeated!"

Listening to what Zhan Ruoshui said, Xu Jie took a sip of tea and said with a smile: "Who gave you the confidence to last three years under the Emperor Shihuang? According to your level, if this situation continues, it will be good to last for a year."

Zhan Ruoshui's face turned blue: "Now is not the time to be quick with your tongue."

Xu Jie said with a smile: "Don't worry, war is just an extension of politics, and politics and institutions are just to serve the economy, and the economy is the appearance of development. In the final analysis, this is a battle of civilizations."

"Zhang Zhixiang's plans are very big, and Qin Shihuang's vision is naturally more long-term."

"They didn't have the idea of ​​attacking Jiangnan directly. Now that they are destroying Jiangnan, it's just a flash. The problem is far from being solved, it's just being hidden."

"At that time, if you want to find out the symptoms and hidden pathogens, it will be more than a hundred times more difficult?"

"Disease enters from the outside and enters the inside, and it is difficult to get rid of it."

"so."

"Qin Shihuang will definitely return to power, and he will inevitably leave Shangzhou. What we have to deal with is still Jiajing. It's just that Jiajing got a big deal because of the first emperor."

"Not to mention the officials, even the common people, after a sigh of relief, they will find that working under the first emperor is very tiring."

"Because of the comparison, they will support Jiajing more and more, and the first emperor has already made a good start and finished all the evil things. Those gentry who survived by chance must also be grateful to Jiajing."

"In just three months, it is almost necessary to complete what can only be done in three years."

"I can only say that he is worthy of being the First Emperor."

What kind of influence does an excellent emperor have on the country? Only when he actually saw the first emperor did Xu Jie understand what kind of gratitude it was. The whole country carried out a will, and the burst of power was simply destructive.

Zhan Ruoshui calmed down a little, and understood that Xu Jie's reasoning was indeed very possible.

But even so...

"Even if the first emperor returned the government to Jiajing and was willing to leave Shangzhou, if he went to Shangzhou, Shangzhou would be completely unified. In the battle of Yizhou, Xu Hai was defeated. Daming has already regained a considerable part of the sea power."

"After that, with Daming and Shangzhou echoing each other, the sea power will completely lose our share."

"When the lifeblood of ocean trade is controlled by them, the entire Jiangnan economy will be shaken. Raw silk, tea, porcelain, steel, and various industrial products. Who do we sell to?"

"It's a question we can't avoid."

"We can't just let Yingzheng attack, we have to fight back, it's best...get rid of him!"

Xu Jie raised his head and glanced at Zhan Ruoshui, as if looking at a mentally handicapped person, not to mention how much this glance provoked Zhan Ruoshui's anger, Xu Jie just said flatly: "When the first emperor was still in the capital, you assassinated one for me. have a look?"

"Even if he let go of the terracotta warriors and let them return to the imperial mausoleum."

"Just taking those few people from the Mo Sect across the ocean, but who can stop him? Who can assassinate him?"

"Don't forget."

"We, the First Emperor, have collected all twelve talismans..."

An emperor who has no way to assassinate and assassinate is really too difficult, especially when the emperor is still immortal, it is a kind of despair.

Zhan Ruoshui said ferociously and self-destructively: "In this way, everyone surrenders! Why do you fight!"

Xu Jie smiled slightly, leaned forward, and looked at Zhan Ruoshui with great power. He looked at Zhan Ruoshui and said, "So...you can only rely on me. I am your only life-saving straw."

"Just as you couldn't assassinate the First Emperor, they... couldn't forcefully kill me either."

"Otherwise, do you think that after the martial arts conference is over, what forces in the world can protect you and me?"

"It only needs to be beheaded by a grand master, and everything will be over."

"If there is such an opportunity, do you think they will not do it? Zhang Sanfeng is invincible, why not do it? Is it simply because of fear of cause and effect?"

"neither."

"They were not sure that they could defeat me, so they gave up and beheaded directly."

Xu Jie's arrogant tone made Zhan Ruoshui very uncomfortable. You are so powerful, why do you still use these tricks?Wouldn't it be good to go directly to Zhang Zhixiang and them for a decisive battle?

If Jiajing and Zhang Zhixiang were killed, this longevity revolution would be considered a failure.

But you don't even...

Zhan Ruoshui was cursing at first, but stopped abruptly, because the Buddha bone scepter in Xu Jie's hand, the white snake came out from the eye socket, what Zhan Ruoshui saw was not a small white snake, but entwined around the world, Looking down from the clouds, the world-destroying snake that can devour the sun and the moon...

"Ah……"

"See? Zhang Zhixiang and their enemies are no longer pure gentry."

"What are you capable of? You need a longevity revolution to deal with it?"

"The problem they have been addressing is the law of cycles. It is to let civilization go beyond the stage of reincarnation and enter the stage of longevity."

Zhan Ruoshui was obviously frightened, tried his best to calm down, looked at Xu Jie in disbelief and asked, "Who are you?"

"Xu Jie, Xu Zisheng."

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! Stop pretending, Xu Jie has already been eaten by you, right? Monster, you are a monster, Qin Shihuang has also been resurrected, and the world is in chaos!"

Zhan Ruoshui's spirit was a little unstable.

It's not that anyone who looks directly at the White Snake can be safe and sound. What Xu Ming saw at the beginning was only the white snake's virtual form, and its own strength is not bad, but it's okay, but now the White Snake...is a real body.

"eat?"

"You underestimate the White Snake too much. It doesn't need to eat people. What it can serve as food is probably the Buddha's parietal bone relic. I'm just the one chosen by the White Snake."

"It's easier to understand. Today, I am the incarnation of the White Snake."

Zhan Ruoshui stood up and backed away, his eyes filled with fear.

He didn't care at all whether the white snake ate Xu Jie or whether Xu Jie was the incarnation of the white snake, he just asked, "You, what kind of monster are you? I've never heard of such a white snake."

Xu Jie frowned slightly, and said, "You should have heard of it."

"Leifeng Pagoda is the origin of the story."

"During the Five Dynasties period, the powerful families withdrew from the stage of history, the scholar-official class became the ruling class, the imperial examination system was bound to the scholar-official class, the culture was unprecedentedly prosperous, and a large number of scholars entered all walks of life without fame. And it started to explode."

"Since the gentry came to power, I was doomed to wake up."

"Do you know what Da Song has?"

"There is cultural prosperity, technological explosion, commercial prosperity, a perfect geographical environment, a market that can be dumped, the richest court, the largest army, and the most peasant uprisings."

"So, what did you find?"

"Do you think that all the peasant uprisings in my Ming Dynasty were deliberately planned by someone? No, even if there is overseas trade that can increase capital density, the price will still be transferred to the countryside. They are unwilling to bear the price, so they will naturally revolt."

"Do you think that the uprising is against the court? Is it against you who have taken advantage of it?"

"Neither, they...are trying to deal with me."

"Tell me, what kind of monster am I?"

Zhan Ruoshui is in a trance, the surroundings seem to be changing, the steam is rumbling, the steel and concrete high-rise buildings are like forests, the sky is dark, the world is full of dead air, and the earth begins to wither...

"I am the Dragon of Destiny."
