Chapter 539 I am a good person
"I see!"

Although he had been mentally prepared before coming here, Li Qingyuan still couldn't help feeling a little sad after seeing a pile of mass graves.

Is this the greatest emperor of all time that people in later generations have been boasting about?
Maybe everyone naturally brings the roles of kings, princes, generals and ministers into their evaluations, but in fact, without any plug-ins, when they travel back, they are basically just lonely souls buried shallowly in the mass graves!

The Qin State did not allow the existence of refugees. Anyone discovered would be tortured and forced to work as a prisoner in the mines. Everyone had to have their own profession and identity, and they had to carry their identity badge with them wherever they went.

Even the relatives of Lord Changping forged by Jingwei might have their identities checked at any time, not to mention ordinary people!
So when the Tang State began to distribute porridge, it was not because all the Qin people had enough food to eat and were not interested in going, but because there were no refugees in the Qin State at all.

What about those ordinary people?

According to Qin law, if one person commits a crime, the entire family, including neighbors, will be implicated. These days, there were people who were really hungry and wanted to run to the Tang State to get a meal, but they were discovered by patrolling Qin soldiers as soon as they left the city and before reaching the border.

Then!
Then the whole family went down together!

For the Qin soldiers, they would kill the Qin traitors who had defected. These guys dared to eat the rice porridge given by the Tang people today, and would dare to bring the Tang people to attack us tomorrow. They were definitely hidden Qin traitors.

But what about those who were beheaded?

They just want to survive, is that really wrong?

Of course, those nobles who lived in the Xianyang Palace, lighting charcoal fires and eating beef would only think that these lowly people had it all their own fault!
My great Qin had six generations of wise rulers and the country was rich and the people were strong. Why can we all eat beef and mutton hotpot and watch naked dancers in the winter while you can't even have a full meal? Isn't it because you are not working hard enough?
We have been living like this for so many years. Why don't you think about your own struggles? Why do you die of starvation while others don't?

If you think that the Qin State is not good, you should work harder to build the Qin State, instead of thinking about defecting when the other side gives you a little benefit. Such people deserve to die!
"Master, this is not your fault. It's the entire Qin State that is so inhumane!"

Jingwei quickly advised Li Qingyuan that the laws of Qin could be reflected in various aspects, and even the killer groups were much more disgusting than those in other countries.

Otherwise, Jingwei and Heibai Xuanjian in Luowang would not have thought of defecting!

After all, the rules of the Qin State had strict regulations on when dogs could bark.

Shang Yang's so-called reform was to turn all people (commoners and untouchables) into consumables under the rails of the state machine, and you didn't even have the right to escape famine freely.

Therefore, Qin Shihuang's unification certainly changed the course of world history, but if several founding emperors of the Han Dynasty had not adopted the Huang-Lao philosophy to give the people a break, the Han Dynasty would probably have become a short-lived existence like the Qin Dynasty.

"What have I done wrong? You don't think I would be upset over such a trivial matter!"

Feeling Jingwei hugging him and rubbing him, Li Qingyuan couldn't help but laugh.

Indeed, the moment he saw the mass grave here, his heart was slightly moved.

Mencius said that a gentleman stays away from the kitchen, and cannot bear to see his subjects die because he sees them alive. This moment is indeed a concrete embodiment of this.

If he was killing enemies on the battlefield, or killing his own enemies like he was dealing with the Yin-Yang School, then Li Qingyuan would not think there was any problem no matter how many he killed.

But!
These corpses dumped randomly in the mass graves were mostly skinny creatures, and there were even quite a few infants and young children whose heads were larger than their bodies, which was really unbearable.

After all, he is just a bad guy, not a pervert like Xiao Ri!
However, Li Qingyuan said that he was only slightly depressed for a few seconds. He didn't kill these people, so why was he being so hypocritical?

"Master, are you still planning to go to Xianyang?"

This time when he came to Qin State, Li Qingyuan originally wanted to go to Xianyang to see the Zulong!

But now?

"Forget it, let's go back! Let Fan Yuqi prepare for the battle!"

Li Qingyuan has always felt that he is not a good person. If his moral standards are judged by the standards of the game, they are definitely negative.

But for some reason, he suddenly felt like he could speed up the end of this strange game?
"Start a war? Master, our army is still a little behind the Qin army, right? And General Fan..."

Although the Tang army can barely be called elite after a year of running-in, only the 20,000 selected armored troops can be said to be able to win against the Qin army. Although the other soldiers are full of enthusiasm, their hard power is still a bit lacking.

Morale can indeed improve the combat effectiveness of the army, but if you can't win, you can't win. This problem can't be solved by just exploding.

What's more important is that the Tang Kingdom has no great generals at all. Fan Yuqi can be considered a talent if he defends the city, but if he is asked to lead the army to attack the Qin Kingdom directly, Jingwei thinks it is still a bit too exaggerated.

"Leave the fighting to the soldiers!"

Li Qingyuan walked back directly. How to fight on the battlefield is the soldier's business. After all, being a soldier means taking the risk.

"Qin law?"

"Qin?"

He smiled with some disdain.

Perhaps thousands of years later, a bunch of people will keep boasting about the so-called Legalist culture, but in his opinion, in addition to setting up a ladder for the Qin State to ascend, the rest are really -

Hey!
Forget it, what qualifications do I have to comment on these things? If I didn't have the cheats, I would just be one of the people in this mass grave. Even wanting to survive is a luxury, so why would I bother talking nonsense here?
Jingwei remained silent. She had actually known for a long time that her master was actually a good person!
Even though she was almost bullied to death by the other party some time ago, and even almost killed during childbirth, it seems like that someone is a super asshole.

But in fact, Jingwei has always been grateful because the other party did not dissect her directly!

A game often played by the children of the nobility was to cut open the belly of a pregnant woman to guess the gender of the fetus. Even in the Qin State, which was known for its strict laws, this was commonplace.

After all, according to Qin law, nobles only needed to pay a fine if they killed untouchables. Nobles and untouchables are two different species!

So, what Li Qingyuan thought was a very bad behavior was just very normal behavior in this era, or even a little too kind?
With the arrogant behavior of Yan Lingji every day, if it were any other prince, he would have had his limbs chopped off and turned into a human pig long ago. Only Li Qingyuan could tolerate her.

but?

My master is a good person, so it’s a good thing for me, right?
(Some of them I don't know how to write, so should I speed up the unification? Or should I change the copy first?)
