The Six Arts of the Gentleman in the Bright Moon of Qin Dynasty

Fusu regretted it immediately after he finished speaking. He could ask Yan Yan about this matter through a secret letter. If Yan Yan had a solution, he would definitely reply to him, and he could use this to break the deadlock.

But now, he said it openly in front of Ying Zheng and the three dukes and nine ministers of Qin. Even if Yan Yan came up with a solution in the future, Qin would not use it. It had nothing to do with whether it was effective or not, but a matter of Qin's face.

"The conflict between Qin and the princes is irreconcilable. In fact, for Qin, Baiyue are more trustworthy because Qin and Baiyue have no hereditary feud, just like Bashu Ju." Dian Keqing spoke up to reconcile the conflict between the father and son and also to give the two a way out.

"So, rather than saying that the Great Qin used 500,000 surrendered soldiers to attack the Baiyue, it would be better to say that the Great Qin used the Baiyue to contain the 500,000 troops."

Dun Ruo's words made everyone fall into deep thought. This angle seemed to make sense.

Qin and the six states all had a feud, and no one could tell who attacked whom first, or who killed whom first.

To use the words of Confucianist Mencius, there was no unjust war in the hundred years of the Spring and Autumn Period!

The six kingdoms have been destroyed, and there is no need to explain right and wrong any longer.

The winner is the king, and the loser is the villain.

If Qin was defeated, would the victorious side let go of the Qin soldiers who surrendered and the Qin people?

"Benevolence cannot control the entire Qin Dynasty or the world." Xiong Qi also spoke.

"After all, they are 500,000 young and strong men!" Fusu wanted to say something.

He grew up in Bingzhou. Why could Bingzhou conquer even the barbarians, but China, which prides itself on being civilized, could not tolerate its own compatriots?

"Go ask the Emperor, he will give you a better explanation!" Ying Zheng finally endured it.

In other words, he also wanted to know whether Yan Yan and Bingzhou really had a solution.

Just as Fusu said, these are 500,000 young and strong men after all. If they can really belong to the Qin Dynasty, then these people can do a lot of things.

The welcoming banquet originally planned for Wu Rui also came to nothing.

After returning to the Prince's Mansion, Fusu rode the Suzaku directly to the Beiye Royal City.

In the Beiye Royal City and Bingzhou Royal Palace, Yan Yan also learned of Fusu's arrival.

"You shouldn't have come!" Yan Yan sighed as he looked at Fusu, who was much older than him.

As long as Fusu does not commit suicide and disobeys Ying Zheng, the future Qin will eventually fall into his hands.

But now, Fusu has begun to rebel. Ying Zheng might tolerate it once or twice, but if it happens too often, that might not be the case.

"Fusu knows, but that is the lives of 500,000 soldiers after all!" Fusu said with his head down.

"But have you ever thought that I can't give you a better answer!" Yan Yan sighed.

Before he became the King of Bing, he was known throughout the world as a poisonous scholar. If he were asked to get rid of the 500,000 surrendered soldiers, he would have countless ways to do it. But if he were asked to save people, that would touch upon his blind spot in knowledge.

What's more, the situation in Qin is different from that in Bingzhou.

If these 500,000 surrendered soldiers were in Bingzhou, then Bingzhou could be merciful, because Bingzhou had no great hatred with the six kingdoms, and even had great favors for the princes in the north.

"Is there really no way?" Fusu still held on to the last hope.

Yan Yan shook his head, "As a ruler, you don't care about right or wrong, and you don't care about morality. As a ruler, you should be steady!"

"You can be merciful, but the consequences of your mercy will be endless cruelty!"

As for the conflicts and hatreds between Qin and the six states, if they were not restrained, when these people returned to their hometowns, two or three of them would get drunk and rise up in rebellion, and the consequences would be too serious.

These 500,000 troops were like a bomb that could explode at any time for the Qin State. The Qin State did not dare and could not allow them to continue to operate in China. "What if we hand them over to Bingzhou?" Fusu suddenly thought.

Bingzhou has no hatred with the six kingdoms. If they are handed over to Bingzhou, with Bingzhou's kindness, they may be treated well.

"Naive!" Yan Yan sighed. He was still too young.

"Not to mention that Qin State cannot and dare not hand over these 500,000 young and strong men to Bingzhou. Even if Qin State is willing, it would be repaying Bingzhou with evil!"

"Repaying kindness with enmity?" Fusu was puzzled.

"This is an army of 500,000, not just a few thousand or hundreds of people!" Yan Yan explained.

"Once they appear in Bingzhou, I will order all the Bingzhou Blood Riders to be slaughtered!"

Fusu looked at Yan Yan. He knew that what Yan Yan said was not a lie. If the Qin State really wanted to hand over these 500,000 troops to Bingzhou for disposal, Yan Yan would really slaughter all of them.

As for the reason, it is that their numbers are too large, and their appearance will pose a huge hidden danger to the stability of Bingzhou.

Even if Bingzhou took them in, they would most likely have other ideas, such as undermining Bingzhou or even forcing Bingzhou to go to war with Qin.

With Yan Yan's character, he would never let such a thing happen. Therefore, once these 500,000 troops appeared in Bingzhou, the end that awaited them would be a ruthless massacre by the Bingzhou Blood Cavalry.

"Your father is not as bad as you think, and the three dukes and nine ministers of Qin are not as cold-blooded as you think. If there were other ways, they would not choose such an extreme method."

"This is their fate, and it is also the process that China must go through to unify itself."

Yan Yan sighed. How can there be no reform without casualties? Reforms always result in casualties, let alone changes, the rise and fall of dynasties.

"As the heir to the empire, if you don't understand your father, how can others understand him?"

Yan Yan continued to persuade Fusu.

"If even you don't understand your father, then he is truly alone."

"Do more, watch more, talk less, and be patient if you have different opinions. Ask your father later. As the crown prince of Qin, the future successor of Qin chosen by your father, he will tell you the purpose of his actions."

Yan Yan also really didn't want to see Fusu follow the old path of history, constantly fighting with Ying Zheng and eventually becoming alienated from him.

"But..." Fusu hesitated for a moment, looked up at Yan Yan, and continued, "I'm afraid!"

Although he was reluctant to say it, Fusu had to admit that his fear of Ying Zheng was innate.

Ying Zheng's demands on him were too high and too strict, so he was more afraid of Ying Zheng than respecting him.

"..." Yan Yan was silent. It seemed that it was innate for children to fear their fathers. There were very few cases of true harmony between fathers and sons.

"If I remember correctly, the King of Qin is very fond of Princess Huayang, Ying Yinman, right?" Yan Yan thought for a moment and spoke again.

"The eldest prince's sister?" Fusu was stunned. He was the eldest prince of Qin, and Ying Yinman was the eldest princess of Qin. Excluding Yun'e, Ying Yinman was the eldest princess of Qin.

"You are afraid of your father, but there are always people who are not afraid. If you dare not ask, then let Princess Huayang ask."

"There is no overnight hatred between father and son. If someone had been mediating, your relationship wouldn't have become so strained!"

Yan Yan gave some suggestions.

"Isn't Sister Yun'e more suitable?" Fusu asked.

Just as he finished speaking, Fusu felt a murderous intent enveloping him. He looked up and saw Yan Yan's cold eyes, and subconsciously shrank his neck.
