Chapter 472 Zhao Si, do you really regard the First Emperor as your father?

Chapter 472 Zhao Si, do you really regard the First Emperor as your father?

Zhao Si bowed and saluted, walked out of the palace, and drove straight to the prince's residence.

"Your Majesty, please see your Highness!"

"Si'er?"

In the hall, Bai Ying and Fu Su were sitting opposite each other in front of the case, writing and discussing. The arrival of Zhao Si clearly interrupted the two of them.

"This is..." Zhao Si asked.

"The rebellion in your country has been stopped today. Counties and counties are in urgent need of recuperation. Millions of common people have become slaves and have been punished for this. This started from the order to move the royal mausoleum. The nobles of the aristocratic families have been executed regardless of whether they are right or wrong. Why do the common people deserve so much? We have to suffer?" I'm discussing with Bai Ying to resume the memorial and present it at the court meeting..." Fusu sighed and then looked at his grandson's son, whom he was not very familiar with.

Fusu and Zhao Si, father and son, are familiar strangers.

Because of the interference of the First Emperor and because they had no reason to get along, the two got along somewhat awkwardly.

Fusu pondered for a few moments, but finally could not hold back his words: "My father is arbitrary and cannot correct his father's mistakes because he is a son. Si'er, please stay with your eldest father..."

Fusu murmured, his lips paused, and it was difficult for him to say the words of request.

Zhao Si actually knew the elegant meaning of the piano after hearing it.

Oh, I understand, let yourself turn a deaf ear and persuade the First Emperor to agree to amnesty for the world?

"The Great Father has approved the amnesty for the world. He has ordered the Right Prime Minister to inform the ministers that a court meeting will be held in seven days to discuss the amnesty for the world." Zhao Si said with a smile.

Apparently, his father had great misunderstandings and prejudices against the First Emperor.

"Ah?" The solemnity and deepness on Fusu's face disappeared in the blink of an eye, turning into joy mixed with surprise.

"Father, are you sure?" Fusu couldn't believe it.

As he spoke, he looked at Zhao Si imperceptibly, with some questioning and affirmation in his eyes.

Obviously, in Fusu's eyes, it must be Zhao Si who persuaded the First Emperor to agree to the amnesty.

After all, Zhao Si had already successfully persuaded the First Emperor to reduce corvee and taxes before his life experience was announced. It can be seen from many things that Zhao Si was lenient in his heart.

As for the First Emperor, Fusu never thought that it was the First Emperor himself who agreed to amnesty for the whole world.

Zhao Si didn't know what Fusu meant. It was just a private matter of the Tian family, and there were outsiders present. How could he say it clearly? Therefore, he did not respond, but smiled and said: "My eldest father asked me to summon my father to have a meal in the palace. Father, please invite me." ?”

Although Fusu was a little confused when he heard this, he still nodded. After sorting out his appearance, he followed Zhao Si and left.

After leaving the palace and getting on the carriage, Fusu couldn't hold back his curiosity after all. Regardless of the awkwardness in getting along with Zhao Si, he asked in a low voice: "How do you advise on such things as amnesty for the world?" Where is your great father’s?”

Zhao Si smiled when he heard the sound and said, "Father's words are wrong. Everyone in the world knows that no one can force the eldest father to do something he doesn't want to do. How can I change the eldest father's mind?"

Obviously, Fusu had a very deep prejudice against the First Emperor.

"This..." Fusu frowned.

When Zhao Si saw this, he didn't want to say more, but thinking of the First Emperor, he still chose to say a few more words.

It would be nonsense to say that the First Emperor did not love Fusu...

From the beginning to the end, the Emperor knew very clearly that the voice of Fusu's crown prince had not declined for forty years, and his reputation had not diminished for forty years. How could this have been done without the First Emperor's acquiescence and even adding fuel to the flames?

But due to various factors, there were too many gaps between the father and son. So much so that the son doesn’t know the father, and the father doesn’t know the son. They have completely lost trust in each other and put stereotypes on each other.

"Father, tell me, is there a possibility that from the beginning, my eldest father would agree to amnesty for the whole world?" Zhao Si said with a smile.

"Just like when I proposed reducing corvee and tax, it was not because of how good my advice was, but because the eldest father could clearly see the benefits of reducing corvee and tax?" Zhao Si said.

He was able to successfully persuade others repeatedly, which is very miraculous and unbelievable to outsiders.

But Zhao Si never thought that his eloquence was so outstanding.

What makes him better than others is that he never acts as a smart person, especially Zhao Si who never gives advice with the attitude of the First Emperor not seeing the key to the problem.

First of all, as an excellent emperor and an excellent politician, the First Emperor was bound to be able to see clearly. What he did was a multiple-choice question that weighed the pros and cons, rather than blindly blinding him with his eyes closed.

Therefore, Zhao Si's attitude is very clear and he is not a smart person.

"But before you, I don't know how many courtiers mentioned the reduction of corvees and taxes..." Fusu frowned and spoke.

He did not agree with Zhao Si's statement. After all, Zhao Si was never the first person to give advice in this regard.

"Father, you should know that it was my first time to remonstrate with you, right?" Zhao Si sighed.

"Are you talking about the official salt price reduction?" Fusu thought for a moment and asked.

Zhao Si nodded upon hearing this.

The Qin Dynasty's policy of promoting mountains and seas was to specialize in salt and iron. The price of salt has always been high. Regarding matters that are closely related to the people, Fusu actually tried to persuade the First Emperor to lower the price of salt, but it was a pity that he failed.

"Then father, does he know why I was able to successfully persuade the eldest father to lower the price of salt, and even got Prime Minister Li to agree to lower the price of salt?" Zhao Si asked.

Fusu did not speak, but waited for Zhao Si to solve the mystery.

"That's because before I persuaded the great father to lower the price of salt, I first figured out a method of drying salt, so that Da Qin would no longer have to worry about producing salt.

Similarly, before I persuaded my eldest father to reduce corvee and tax, I brought back three kinds of fairy grains, which increased the grain production. From then on, the Qin Dynasty no longer suffered from food shortages. Moreover, at that time, Longxi was victorious, and the Xiongnu no longer had any trouble going south. The construction of the Great Wall has also been completed, and there is no longer a shortage of fortifications. "Zhao Si said in a deep voice.

Fusu had a thoughtful look in his eyes when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he still felt that something was wrong.

What Zhao Si wants to express is that if you want to make suggestions, you can't just make suggestions. You must also consider other things for the First Emperor.

But what about stopping the construction of the Epang Palace and the construction of the mausoleum?

Have you also solved the problem of the life span of the First Emperor?

Fusu was meditating there, while Zhao Si continued to output.

"I think the way to give advice is not about right or wrong, but about considering the other person's perspective, worrying about the king's worries and being happy about the king's joy. Only in this way can the advice be successful.

What I said may be inappropriate, but father, you are the son of the eldest father and are a family member. You should stand together with the eldest father to think about problems.

From the beginning to the end, you thought that the eldest father would not be what you thought, that the eldest father was greedy for power and abusive, and that it was difficult to change. So what was the point of going out of your way to dissuade him?

You are already sure that the Great Father will not listen to you, but you still want to say it.

Is it just to make myself feel better?

Then the reason why you advise is for the sake of the people of the world, or for the sake of your own conscience and kindness? "

Fusu pursed his lips when he heard the sound, but said nothing. For a moment, the only sound left was the sound of horse hooves hitting the ground...
