my grandfather was qin shi huang

Chapter 469: Marquis Wenxin and the unexpected joy

"Thank you for your noble hand, brother..."

Zhao Ying stepped forward with a smile and supported Zhao Wan's figure.

"We are all a family, no matter how noble we are, we should not be too noble. As a junior, I can't stand by and watch my aunt run towards her death..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying said it very sincerely.

"Besides, whether we can help her depends on her own choice..."

Zhao Wan thanks you again.

"Wan'er is kind enough..."

Although Zhao Ying said it very politely, she understood very well that if the eldest brother who had become the emperor's grandson had not taken shelter from him, her grandmother's current actions alone would have been enough to be jailed by Heibingtai and Ming Zhengdian. .

She has to recognize this affection.

Zhao Ying did not help him this time, but stood there with a smile and nodded.

"After all, blood is thicker than water. Between us, brother and sister, we are blood relatives who break bones and connect tendons. Please remember that from now on, no matter when or where you go, you will be my sister, Zhao Ying. They are all the noblest female young masters in our Great Qin..."

Zhao Wan looked at Zhao Ying who was standing on the steps, smiling warmly and looking at her lovingly, and suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of security in her heart.

He raised his face with a smile as bright as a flower.

"Well, thank you, brother——"

on the steps.

Zhao Ying waited until Zhao Wan's carriage gradually moved away until it disappeared from sight, then he turned around and returned home.

……

The next day, he received the file in his hand that Mrs. Zheng took the initiative to report and expose the remnants of the Qin Alliance. He opened it, flipped through it briefly, and handed it back to the censor, Feng Jie.

His face was calm and authentic.

"What does Feng Yushi think should be done..."

Feng Jie was silent for a while, and finally bent down with a respectful expression.

"There are traitors who sneaked into the mansion without knowing it. Instead, they provided convenience for these traitors to cause chaos, and almost made a big mistake. As the master, Mrs. Donghai was guilty of negligence and cannot escape the blame, but she didn't know it. Because of his love, and the merit of the report, I believe that if his crime is reduced by one level, his title as Mrs. Donghai can be removed, and he can be asked to stay at home and think about his mistakes behind closed doors to prevent him from making mistakes and causing trouble again..."

Zhao Ying finally showed a smile on his face and nodded slightly.

"Good! Just follow Feng Yushi's words..."

Feng Yushi bowed again and retreated.

The turmoil caused by the eldest son helping Su into Xianyang and taking the initiative to invite the emperor's grandson came to an end quietly, and did not even attract much attention from the ordinary people in Xianyang City.

Only some people in high-level positions could not help but frown slightly, with some indelible worries on their expressions.

For example, today's left prime minister Li Si is at the peak of his power.

Ordinary people may see the emperor's great love and justice, but he sees the emperor's gross interference with the laws of the Qin Dynasty. Mrs. Zheng is just an ignorant and foolish woman. Whether she kills or not, or how she is punished is not really important.

Importantly, this was most likely a turning point in the influence of the entire Legalist faction in the DPRK.

It is said that a thousand-mile embankment was destroyed by an ant nest, and it is better to prevent the slightest change than to turn the tide. This move by the emperor's grandson made him feel a little uneasy.

He pondered for a long time and then looked at Feng Jie who was waiting respectfully.

"Mrs. Hedong's case is legal..."

Feng Jie thought for a while and then replied seriously.

"It's controversial, but - within the rules..."

Li Si glanced at him and nodded slightly when he saw his calm expression.

"In that case, let's follow the emperor's grandson's words..."

He really didn't want to get into trouble with the emperor's grandson unless necessary.

He knew very well that although the emperor's grandson had a reputation for being benevolent, loving, kind-hearted, and friendly to others, in fact, the way he acted was much crueler than the current His Majesty.

To this day, he still remembers the series of murderous orders issued by the Emperor Taisun without hesitation on the day of the incident.

All those who participated in the rebellion traveled three thousand miles and were all sent to Chongbian in Mobei. The person in charge annihilated the three tribes and collected all their property. Thousands of people died and tens of thousands were implicated.

On the official road leading to Mobei, prisoners in shackles and chains were packed end to end.

The wealthy families in the hometown of the Six Kingdoms, after more than ten years, once again witnessed the Kulie blade of Great Qin!
Compared with His Majesty, this grandson of the Emperor seems gentle, but in fact he is more domineering and tougher. This is a man who once led tens of thousands of troops to sweep across Mobei, destroying four countries in one day, and conquering Hexi with three arrows. The invincible commander.

Who dares to disobey his will easily?
When Feng Jie came out of Li Si's room, he couldn't help but squint his eyes slightly, turned his head and glanced at the majestic palace not far away, and let out a long breath.

You know that from this moment on, the court of Great Qin will completely usher in an era that belongs exclusively to the emperor's grandson.

There was some inexplicable emotion in my heart.

……

However, joys and sorrows are not the same between people.

Just as people like Feng Jie and Li Si were disappointed by these invisible changes in the Great Qin Court, the local wealthy families involved in the "eldest son Fusu case" were paying a heavy price for their actions.

Under the iron fist of the emperor's grandson, families were destroyed, bloodlines were cut off, and local wealthy families that had existed for hundreds of years collapsed. It was a human tragedy, but there were also people who were secretly happy because of the collapse of these aristocratic families.

Because, suddenly a huge profit space has been opened up!

First of all, these big families are connected by thousands of hectares of fertile land!

In order to stabilize the place as quickly as possible and win over the hearts and minds of these aristocratic families, the First Emperor barely touched the interests of these people. Therefore, although the Six Kingdoms fell, the foundation of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms did not suffer any fatal impact.

But now, these lands have been registered one by one by the government, and according to the imperial decree, they have all been distributed to farmers who lack cultivated land.

Those workshops, shops, and high-rise mansions and courtyards were all priced and sold to wealthy local businessmen.

The best way to get rid of weeds on the ground is never to kill them all, but to plant the crops you want on this wasteland.

What made Zhao Ying somewhat unexpected was that because of this incident, the resistance to pushing the favor order suddenly decreased a lot. Some people were worried that the imperial court would take the opportunity to get involved and take action against wealthy families such as themselves, and they began to take action to openly divide their own property in an attempt to maintain the influence of the family by breaking it into parts.

But some things are never that simple. Even if it is fake, once you start it, it may not be so easy to take it back. Who is willing to hand over property that is apparently theirs and is actually recognized by the government to others?

Even if this other person is the former high-ranking head of the family, or his parents and brothers!

This is purely an unexpected surprise.

When Zhao Ying received the news, he was stunned for a while, and then he put down the information in his hand with a smile. This saves you a lot of trouble.

Even without this incident, he was ready to start increasing the implementation of the grace order. He wasn't worried about the commotion it would cause.

Because of this kind of thing, the internal strife of the children of these families is enough to completely drag down these families. Compared with the current situation in the past when the master family controlled everything and other families could only rely on the master family, it is obvious that for the members of the family, For most people, the grace order is more popular. What the court needs to do is to add more fire and push gently from behind.

At this time, Zhao Ying was paying attention to this issue.

He looked at Feng Quji, who had white beard and hair and always had a respectful look on his face, and smiled and slightly held his hands.

"Prime Minister Feng, this matter is of great importance and is related to the long-term peace and stability of our country. I would like to trouble you to follow up personally and put more thought into it..."

"Please rest assured, Your Highness, I will do my best in this matter..."

Feng Quji immediately agreed without saying a word.

When Feng Quji said goodbye and went out, there was some wind under his feet.

As an emperor and a courtier, in the past when His Majesty personally governed the government, he would have liked to use the young and promising Li Si, but now the emperor's grandson relies heavily on himself, an old minister, and has the potential to compete with Li Si.

How could he not be in high spirits!
How many people can be as mediocre as he is?

Who is willing to be inferior to others for the rest of his life?

The First Emperor did not interfere with Zhao Ying's method. Instead, he watched with interest and found it interesting.

But no matter what, this matter finally came to an end, and even the grace order was finally on the right track. With Feng Quji, the mature right minister, in charge, Zhao Ying was not worried.

Feng Quji is naturally a cunning old man, but he is not an old fool.

You should know your own duties and know how to gain your respect.

Zhao Ying did not give up on Li Si, because he had a more arduous task that required someone like Li Si who was younger, more powerful, and more capable to take care of him.

That’s the silver standard!

Originally, Great Qin did not have this condition, but as Si Gongzi Gao expanded overseas islands, a large amount of silver began to flow into Great Qin, and the silver standard finally became feasible.

The implementation of the silver standard is not something that can only be done if you have silver. It is a systematic process, and the issues involved are numerous. Zhao Ying thought that he was not an expert in this field, so he directly handed over this issue to Li Si, who has extremely outstanding experience and means.

"...Your Highness, I think the silver standard you mentioned is indeed feasible..."

As Li Si spoke, he carefully considered his words.

"Not only can it greatly alleviate the current situation of our Daqin copper coins being tense, but it is also easy to carry and can make the flow of goods smoother, but..."

Speaking of this, Li Si couldn't help but subconsciously raised his head and glanced at Zhao Ying's reaction. Seeing that Zhao Ying listened very seriously, and nodded slightly approvingly while listening, he suddenly felt a little more confident.

"But Your Highness, how should we maintain the stability of our silver prices? Since we are going to implement silver coins, a large amount of silver will inevitably flow into the outside world. Silver will inevitably be unable to maintain the current price level. Once the proportion is out of balance, it will inevitably The imperial government that attacks the imperial court..."

When Zhao Ying heard this, he couldn't help but nodded to him in approval.

He is indeed a capable minister who will leave his name in history!
This sensitive sense of smell and superhuman insight are far beyond the reach of ordinary people.

"Therefore, we have to trouble the left prime minister to select and organize a group of officials who are good at financial management, and set up a special yamen to coordinate the planning of this matter..."

Since he paid less attention to this aspect in his previous life, even now that his memory of his previous life has been strengthened and he can never forget it, he can clearly remember all the books he read in his previous life. However, for books in this area, he almost I haven’t read it yet…

Some only have knowledge from previous lives and some fragmented common sense.

But hearing this common sense sounded like a wake-up call to Li Si's ears, shocking him to the core.

"Your Highness, you are truly a genius, beyond what I can match..."

Zhao Ying:......

Hearing these words, I felt a little inexplicably guilty.

He could only smile and wave his hands.

"It's just some immature thinking. It's still very immature and unsystematic. Talents like Li Xiang are needed to supplement and improve..."

Speaking of this, Zhao Ying suddenly felt something in his heart, looked at Li Si and smiled.

"When Prime Minister Li comes, he may be able to imitate the old affairs of Marquis Wenxin in the past, organize talents in this field, and systematically compile this knowledge into a book. He can also leave his name in history and pay for future generations..."

Li Si:......

Subconsciously, he glanced at the side hall without even daring to do so.

As the left prime minister, he knew that His Majesty the First Emperor was resting there - did this grandson of the Emperor really dare to speak, and was he really not afraid of angering His Majesty?

Seeing his reaction, Zhao Ying couldn't help but smile.

"Why is this so? My eldest father has a broad mind and is a sage monarch who has not been seen in thousands of years. How can I blame you for this? Besides, my eldest father has always been clear about rewards and punishments. Although Marquis Wenxin has acted rebelliously, his merits are It is a merit and a fault. The books he compiled have brought together the wisdom of countless knowledgeable people. When it is passed down to future generations, how can we let his pearls become dusty..."

Li Siwu didn't dare to talk to him, so he just kept silent. Finally, he found an excuse and ran away.

Zhao Ying:......

Looking at the First Emperor who walked in with a faint smile, Zhao Ying couldn't help but look helpless.

"Father, look at how scared you are of Prime Minister Li. You are so scared of a left prime minister..."

First Emperor:……

He raised his hand and slapped him on the head angrily.

"You're going to blame the eldest father. It's obviously your intention. Tell me, you brat, what the hell was your plan when you mentioned Wen Xinhou's book just now..."

Zhao Ying then chuckled and praised shamelessly.

"My eldest father is wise! You know that my little thoughts cannot escape your eyes..."

"Okay, let's tell you what your plan is..."

As the First Emperor spoke, he walked over and roughly read the memorials before Zhao Ying's case.

"I plan to use that book as one of the auxiliary teaching materials of the new school and include it in the students' performance evaluation..."

When the First Emperor heard this, he frowned subconsciously. If he hadn't been well aware of his grandson's character, he would most likely have doubted whether this bitch wanted to overturn the case of Marquis Wenxin.

Zhao Ying had expected this and quickly added after seeing it.

"Father, even if Marquis Wenxin is guilty, what's the point of the books he compiled?"

When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. However, before he could get angry, Zhao Ying laughed along with him.

"Uncle, the Six Kingdoms were once your enemies. Back then, you swept across the Six Kingdoms and unified the world. Many treasures and beauties were brought from the Six Kingdoms, and you didn't dislike them..." (End of Chapter)
