Great Qin's son-in-law

Chapter 360 It's too expensive to see what's missing! (seeking subscription)

After half an hour.

Qin Luoheng went outside the imperial chariot of the first emperor.

The guards in front of the imperial chariot were very strict. Even the first emperor's personal guards were searched repeatedly. Qin Luoheng stood tall, outside the imperial chariot, and respectfully said: "The minister ordered Qin Luoheng to meet your majesty."

There was no sound.

After a while, a response came from inside the imperial chariot, but it was not Shihuang who spoke, but the eunuch serving in the chariot said loudly: "Your Majesty has an order, and the Qin Shangshu ordered you to enter the chariot."

The voice fell.

Inside the imperial chariot, an eunuch jumped out of the chariot, placed a wooden pier outside the imperial chariot, and said with a smile on his face, "Qin Shang Shu Ling, please."

Qin Luoheng bowed slightly, then stepped on the wooden pier and entered the imperial chariot.

It was cold outside, but the inside of the imperial car was very warm. Qin Luoheng dared not look around, and as soon as he entered the car, he bowed directly and said, "My minister, Qin Luoheng, sees Your Majesty."

Ying Zheng didn't look up, but just hummed, and then said, "I heard you want to go out?"

Qin Luoheng said:

"I dare not lie to Your Majesty. I have indeed applied to the Prime Minister to go out. The journey is hard. I usually have nothing else to do except help with some trivial military matters. Now it is spring plowing, and the Secretary under my leadership happens to have a farmer's son. Therefore, it is the minister's duty to work on spring farming."

"Your Majesty, please learn from me."

Ying Zheng raised his forehead slightly, and said flatly, "Your secretary does have peasant children, but the matter of spring plowing belongs to the internal history of millet. Your excuse is not enough."

Done.

Ying Zheng waved his hands in all directions.

The eunuchs around immediately understood, bowed to the first emperor, and slowly withdrew from the imperial chariot.

see.

Qin Luoheng's expression became more upright.

When all the eunuchs around got out of the car, and there were only the two of them in the car, Ying Zheng said: "I know what you think, but you just can't stand loneliness and want to go out for activities, what kind of farmhouse and so on, everything It's an excuse."

Qin Luoheng smiled awkwardly.

Ying Zheng shook his head, not caring about it, and said lightly, "Come closer."

Qin Luoheng hesitated for a moment, moved his body, and got within ten steps of the first emperor. The distance was so close that he could even see the gray hair on the temples of the first emperor. I really felt the hard work of the First Emperor these days.

He cupped his hands and said:

"The journey is difficult, Your Majesty must take good care of your body."

He is genuine.

After he came out of Mount Li, he met Shi Huang many times, and he really tasted the great hard work of Shi Huang. But in retrospect, Shi Huang's hard work may have been like this since the unification of the world.

In a short period of more than ten years, the state of Qin has expanded into the whole world.

As the country grows larger, there will naturally be more state affairs. Yingzheng has also changed from the lord of a country to the lord of the world, and into the first emperor who is respected by all people. halo.

But Qin Luoheng saw it more clearly.

Daqin has indeed achieved the expansion of the country and the surge in power, but at the same time, the requirements for the emperor are also much higher, and some requirements are even at the cost of life.

Just one year.

But Shi Huang had aged several years.

Ying Zheng Road:
"People from the outside world think that my grand duke is supremely enlightened, that he handles political affairs, that he lives endlessly and never rests. Do you think so too?"

Qin Luoheng said: "I think His Majesty has indeed done this."

Ying Zheng chuckled, noncommittal, and said coldly, "I don't think so. In many aspects, I haven't done it. I'm even aware of the evils in the world, but I chose to let them go."

"Governance has never been easy."

"When I returned to the country when I was young, Guanjian was in the right place. At that time, I was also passionate and wanted to create a paradise for the world. After going through all kinds of ups and downs, my original intention has actually changed a long time ago."

"You once suggested that I use the clan's children."

"Don't I know this truth?"

"Even if I don't understand, how could Confucian scholars let them go when they were still alive? Chun Yuyue has said to the outside world more than once: 'Your Majesty now has domestic affairs, and his children are ordinary people. There is the problem of Tian Chang Liuqing, and the country has no assistants. Why? Help!'"

"Local lands are merged, and the remnants of the six kingdoms are stirring up trouble, don't I really know about it?"

"Some news has already spread all over the world, but I deliberately chose to ignore it. Do you know why?"

Qin Luoheng shook his head, cupped his hands and said, "I don't dare to presume Shangyi."

Ying Zheng Road:
"A politician, in fact, the most important feature is to pretend to be confused."

"Regardless of any speech, as long as it is not written into the memorial or mentioned in the temple, it will never be heard, and it will never be discussed based on it."

"The ancestor Xiaogong and the Lord Shang corrected the laws of Qin, and the rulers of Qin followed the laws of the Lord Shang as sacred, but if the laws of the Lord Shang were so beneficial, why should I reform and break the law? The so-called innovation is only when the situation has deteriorated to a certain extent. It’s nothing more than a remedy, but if you can really revolutionize the world, how can you achieve the level of revolutionizing the world?”

Qin Luoheng was startled.

It was the first time he had heard this kind of statement, and after hearing it, he half-understood. He had some thoughts in his mind, but he didn't realize much.

Ying Zheng didn't say much on this matter.

continued:
"After leaving Guanzhong, I did send many officials to inspect the prefectures and counties where the guard camps are scheduled. Do you know what is recorded in the documents submitted by these officials?"

Qin Luoheng continued to shake his head.

Ying Zheng said: "The whole article is about boasting about the governance of the world, saying that the consolidation of China's general plan has achieved initial results, and the roads in local counties and counties are smooth, and the road is full of vitality."

"It's expensive to see what's missing!"

"The deficiencies they listed are almost all related to people's livelihood, and all the practical things are still complicated, such as the reform of the world's currency, population registration, and land tax corvee and so on."

"And is this really the so-called fact?"

Ying Zheng chuckled.

shook his head and said:
"Now the army is stationed in Jinyang, Taiyuan County. This is the land of Zhao. After the battle of Changping in Zhao land, the people of Zhao land have always held grudges against the Qin court. Although the resentment has weakened in the past few decades, the people still Full of hostility towards Daqin."

"How did Qin Zheng spread so quickly?"

"If Zhao, who is the most hostile and hostile to Great Qin, can practice Qin's government in this way, why are there so many disasters in the North?"

Ying Zheng's eyes were cold.

Qin Luoheng remained silent.

He clearly understood what the first emperor said.

This is the grand occasion of local officials whitewashing peace.

Think of this.

Qin Luoheng couldn't help shaking his head.

The first emperor's hunting tour this time was originally to appease the northern land. If the northern land did not breed chaos, why did the first emperor bother to start the hunting tour?However, the local officials and the officials who went to the local inspections were falsifying under the watchful eyes of the public.

Immediately, Qin Luoheng thought that after being in the army for so long, he had never heard that the first emperor had punished the accompanying officials. After thinking about it, he thought about what the first emperor said before, and it was also thoughtful.

There are some things that Shihuang knew well, but he just pretended not to know.

Ying Zheng looked at Qin Luoheng, his eyes had regained his calm, and he said indifferently: "I can choose to ignore or let things go, but it doesn't mean that I really don't do anything. My eyes and ears, the officials who inspect the places are also my eyes and ears."

"But these can only be on the surface!"

"A politician cannot listen to everything, nor can he believe everything. He must make his own judgment and balance in everything, and he must have his own reliable eyes and ears."

"There are things that require trade-offs."

"I know that the local officials are deceitful, but why don't I punish them? Because I still need them to govern the place for me, and along the way, there may be countless such officials, and I can't deal with them."

"I won't deal with it lightly."

"At least they did something, even if it was just a show."

"and"

"The news that I want to patrol the northern land has already spread. The officials in the counties and counties where the camp is scheduled to be stationed by the garrison guards have probably colluded with everything. It is difficult to find out the results in a short time, so I don't want to bother too much at all. .”

"The purpose of my hunting tour this time is to appease the Northland, so how can I really ignore it?"

"I won't care too much about the pre-scheduled garrison camp counties and counties, but it is not the scheduled garrison guard camp counties and counties, which is the focus of this rectification. You want to inspect the scheduled garrison guard camp counties and counties. would not agree."

"I want you to go to an unscheduled county."

"What I want is for you to be my eyes and ears, to see the real situation of the place."

"How corrupted is Shandong? Is it true that the people are in dire straits, and that they want to mix with the remnants of the six kingdoms? All these require you to investigate on the spot. You did have some cleverness in the past, but governing the country never depends on whether you are smart or not. , but only to see whether it is suitable or not."

"You still have a lot to learn."

Qin Luoheng cupped his hands and said, "I will live up to your majesty's entrustment, and I will find out the real situation of the place."

Ying Zheng Road:
"I allow you to act cheaply."

"The army will stay in Jinyang for half a month. I will give you half a month to allow you to roam freely in the counties and counties of Taiyuan County. After half a month, the army will set off. You can join the army or continue to go north along the road. I won't ask."

"also."

"Don't delay farming, don't delay government affairs. Although you have the power to act cheaply, you are only limited to wandering around, and you don't have the power to make decisions in various places."

"I hope you won't disappoint me."

Qin Luoheng's heart trembled.

Hastily said: "I will do my best."

Ying Zheng raised his forehead slightly, and waved his hands, "Go down, you have been in Xianyang for a while, and it's time to go to the place, to see the current situation of the place, to see the real world."

Qin Luoheng looked solemn, cupped his hands and said, "I will leave."

Done.

Qin Luoheng retreated slowly.

When he walked out of the car door, he only felt that his footsteps were a little vain, and he even felt a sense of stepping into the air. He turned his head and glanced at the closed imperial car, with a look of determination in his eyes.

He saluted to the imperial chariot again, and then strode back to his own train.

After half an hour.

The small team with only seven or eight people suddenly broke away from the army, and then rode their horses towards the surrounding counties, and quickly disappeared from everyone's sight.

Cool breeze.

　There was a mistake in the previous chapter. It was to arrange officials to go to the pre-booked camp counties and counties, which has been corrected.
