Great Qin Empress's Infrastructure Handbook
Chapter 194 The Way of Being a King
Regarding the matter of corvee service, after asking my father for instructions, the corvee service will continue in accordance with last year's work-for-relief method, and the salary will still be the original salary.
During the few days he lived in Jingshui Pavilion, Ying Zheng was not idle at all. He ran into the school every day to listen to Zhao Wen's lectures.
It was the same when Fu Su came, and I didn't know what charm Zhao Wen had, which made both father and son like to run towards him.
In the evening, Zhao Qingrui came to the primary school, found her father and talked about going back.
She has already organized the people who will be brought back, and she has also arranged the affairs here.
The butler was unwilling to leave, so he stayed in Jingshui Pavilion to help Zhao Qingrui look after the house.
"Where is Mr. Zhao? He also wants to go back with us, right?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Wen and asked.
Zhao Qingrui has already told him about this matter, there are more people in Xianyang who need him, so he will naturally follow to Xianyang.
"Of course he's going. I still need him in Xianyang." Zhao Qingrui said calmly.
"That's good, by the way, those Mo family members, what are your plans?" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Qingrui.
"They, I haven't figured it out yet, what does the emperor want them to do?" Zhao Qingrui tilted his head and looked at his father suspiciously. Could it be that he is also trying to get ideas from these people from the Mo family?
"The widow wants to build a ship. These people have studied with Mr. Zhao for so long, and they have learned a lot of skills. The public losers are basically studying various weapons now, and there are not many other craftsmen who can use them." Ying Zheng's eyes flickered.
The fact that the Maurya Dynasty came to trade made him want to see the overseas world even more.
Daqin's existing shipbuilding technology and experience related to navigation are not enough to support them to find the overseas world in a warship. If they get lost at sea, the loss outweighs the gain.
"Then take it back and let them study it slowly." Zhao Qingrui had no objection, just to see how these people from the Mo family are learning.
Although I didn't study for a long time, these were taught by Zhao Wen himself, and I even gave them a small lesson. Zhao Qingrui still looks forward to the skills of these people.
The guard of honor of the first emperor set off again, and it was not far from Xianyang.
The speed of the guard of honor was not fast. It took more than two days to walk, and along the way, her father was instilling in her various ways of being a king.
What my father talked about was basically Mencius's way of being a king and things in Shang Jun's books. She has also read a lot of ancient books over the years. Of course, the content of these ancient books is not something ordinary people can read.
Especially the way of being a king, if ordinary people read it, in the eyes of others, this is treason, and those who don't know think you are going to rebel.
Zhao Qingrui could tell that his father admired some of Shang Yang's ideas very much.
The book of Shangjun talks about the way of being a monarch, teaching the monarch to "make the world public", "legislate for the public" and "open the public to benefit the private". The theory is a good theory, but there are many problems in practice.
The biggest problem is that it is divorced from the reality of the times and violates the principles of the feudal monarchy system, and its long-term development is unsustainable.
The biggest politics of the feudal monarchy is to maintain stability, maintain the rule and protect the interests of private individuals and small groups.
"Father, do you think Shang Jun's words are right?" Zhao Qingrui hugged Xiaobai, smoothed his hair, and supported his head with the other hand.
Ying Zheng raised his eyebrows, "Oh? You don't agree with Shang Jun's words?"
At least he felt that Shang Jun's words were correct. Without the series of reforms proposed by Shang Yang, there would be no Daqin now.
"The most noble person in the world is the king, and the monarch with all the power of the country must be a wise monarch, and he must be particularly wise to distinguish what is true and what is false." Zhao Qingrui sighed, Shang Yang is too idealistic.
"I don't think I'm a faint king, and you certainly won't be in the future. Shang Jun's theory is applicable." Ying Zheng pondered for a while and said.
"Father, you are wrong. Although this political argument is reasonable, it is fundamentally a failure, because the country's hope is based on one person, and it will be defeated by one person." Zhao Qingrui sat up straight.
"Why?" Ying Zheng frowned slightly.
Although he knew about the death of Qin II from his daughter, but now Hu Hai has been taken care of by him, and he also understands Zhao Qingrui's ability, and it is impossible for the situation in history to reappear.
"Father, human nature is complicated, just like you. In the past, you unified the six countries, and your books and texts were on the same track. These achievements are undeniable, but what have you done these years? Build the Afang Palace, heavy corvee, and believe in alchemists , Eating elixir, people are not static."
Ying Zheng was a little embarrassed to be exposed.
But the girl's words were not unreasonable, and Ying Zheng was a little stunned.
Zhao Qingrui continued, "Because people are selfish, the monarch will appoint his own descendants as emperors instead of the wisest people in the world. Therefore, no matter how many wise monarchs there were before such a monarchy system, it will inevitably go towards decay."
Ying Zheng was silent, he could not refute.
"And all of Shangjun's proposals are based on: the monarch is the monarch, the ministers are the ministers, and the people are the people."
"However, there are still some correct truths in it, such as 'opening public interests and closing private doors, so as to benefit the people, private labor is not shown to the state, and private doors are not invited to the king. If this is the case, the meritorious officials will persuade them, and the orders will be implemented and will be abandoned. Pi, the prostitution of the people is stopped, but there is no love for adultery.'”
(Interpretation: Don't bend the law for personal gain, otherwise it will make the law unconvincing, and eventually the society will be full of corrupt people.)
After being silent for a long time, Ying Zheng suddenly laughed, "You are right, being a father is not as clear as you, and you are a terrible young man."
"Then what do you want to do? You can't give up the throne, even if you want to, the widow will not agree." Ying Zheng chuckled.
The daughter is smarter than he thought, and she is also very sober. She is indeed his daughter, and she is very proud.
Zhao Qingrui glanced at him, "People are selfish, and I can only do my best to do what I can."
"The widow will watch and see the day when you surpass the widow." Leaning comfortably by the car window, Ying Zheng felt that he didn't need to tell her more about the way of being a king, she understood all these principles.
He also believed that Zhao Qingrui would do better than him.
"To be honest, what are you trying to do with the widow right now?" Ying Zheng looked straight at Zhao Qingrui.
"Hehehe, it's nothing, I just want you to stop talking about this in my ear. When I do something wrong, it's not too late for you to bring it up." Zhao Qingrui smiled flatteringly. Evolving in verbosity is simply too scary.
She prefers to learn these things in practice rather than to talk about these great principles.
In her mind, the tall and majestic image of Emperor Shi Huang collapsed bit by bit. Fortunately, others did not know that Emperor Shi Huang was like this in private.
