Da Qin: From a disciple of Fusu to a generation of imperial masters

Chapter 12 Fusu made a speech and the whole audience fell silent. Ying Zheng was satisfied with Fusu!
Everyone in the main hall heard the First Emperor's words and looked at Fusu.

They still clearly remember Fusu's speech in the main hall yesterday.

In these days, the First Emperor seldom took the initiative to ask Fusu questions, but today he asked Fusu questions.

In the opinion of the ministers, it is related to Fusu's speech yesterday.

Meng Yi looked at Fusu when he heard the First Emperor's words and didn't dare to breathe.

Fusu performed very well yesterday, but Meng Yi was not sure whether he could perform well again today.

If His Majesty is not satisfied with Fusu's answer, His Majesty may be even more disappointed with Fusu.

Chunyu Yue looked at Fusu and thought of what Fusu said against him yesterday.

Now that the First Emperor asked him about the treasury, he wanted to see if Fusu would speak his mind as confidently as he did when he contradicted him yesterday.

Hu Hai looked at Fusu with a hint of joy in his heart.

He also talked to his teacher about the empty treasury.

The teacher didn't have a good idea. Now the father asked Fusu what he thought of the minister's suggestion.

In Hu Hai's view, Fusu's answer would definitely not make his father happy.

Once his father is dissatisfied with Fusu, it will be good news for him.

When Fusu heard his father's question, there was no panic on his face.

Looking back at the gray-haired old man, Fusu looked at the First Emperor and cupped his hands:

"Report to the Emperor!"

"In my eyes, this minister's suggestion is a suggestion that the Qin Dynasty will be destroyed."

After Fusu finished speaking, Qilin Hall, where there were still some voices, instantly became quiet.

Both the ministers in the main hall and the eunuchs standing on both sides were all stunned.

It took a while for everyone to react. Everyone looked at Fusu and took a breath.

Did they hear it correctly? Fusu just said that Great Qin was going to perish?

Not long after His Majesty unified the six kingdoms and established the Qin Dynasty, Fusu said that the Qin Dynasty was going to be destroyed. These ministers would never dare to say these words.

Meng Yi's face turned gloomy. Fusu's performance in the hall yesterday made him feel that Fusu had changed.

This morning, Chao Fusu said in front of His Majesty that the Qin Dynasty was going to perish. If an ordinary minister said this, he might be pulled out and executed directly.

Meng Yi felt a trace of despair in his heart. He was too happy yesterday.

When Chunyu Yue heard Fusu's words, he felt a little happy in his heart.

He still remembered clearly that Fusu contradicted him yesterday. His Majesty would have been very angry after hearing what Fusu said just now.

Although His Majesty wanted to execute Fusu because of his words, punishment is inevitable.

Li Si looked at Fusu and shook his head slightly, frowning.

Hu Hai lowered his head when he heard Fusu's words, feeling ecstatic.

What the teacher said yesterday was right, Fusu will not change easily.

Fusu's words just now seemed to Hu Hai to be a curse on Da Qin.

His father finally unified the six countries and established the Qin Empire, but Fusu actually dared to curse like this.

Hu Hai was certain in his heart that his father would definitely punish Fusu.

Everyone looked at the First Emperor, who was still looking at Fusu with a calm expression.

Everyone was very confused. Your Majesty should have been quite angry when he heard Fusu's words. Why is your Majesty still so calm?
"Fusu, in your opinion, the suggestion made by Minister Cai just now is the suggestion that the Qin Dynasty will be destroyed."

"What is the basis for you to say this?"

The First Emperor looked at Fusu, his voice still calm and without any hint of anger.

Everyone looked at Fusu. They were very shocked by Fusu's words just now. They wanted to know what Fusu would say next.

Fusu didn't care at all that others were looking at him. He looked at the First Emperor with a calm face and said:
"Report to the Emperor!"

"The Qin Dynasty has been fighting for years, and the taxes paid by the people every year have already stretched their families." "If we increase taxes on the people, the national treasury will no longer be empty for a while."

"People's lives will become more difficult, and they may even be unable to eat, which will push them to desperation."

"The people who have reached a dead end will inevitably resist the Qin Dynasty in order to survive."

"At that time, those people with evil intentions will use these people to fight against the Qin Dynasty."

"By then the war in Da Qin will resume, and the world will be in chaos again."

"The Qin Dynasty is the boat and the people are the water. Water can carry the boat but also capsize it."

Fusu's voice was sonorous and powerful, and all the ministers were stunned when they heard Fusu's words.

It took a while for everyone to react and look at Fusu, who was standing at the front.

They were very surprised by Fusu's words yesterday, and today they got to know Fusu again.

Meng Yi's face looked happy at this moment, but just now he felt despair.

Hearing Fusu's explanation, he was very excited.

The minister just now suggested increasing taxes on the people, and Meng Yi had the same idea as Fusu just said.

Fusu's statement seemed to him very good, and His Majesty would definitely look at Fusu with admiration.

Chunyu Yue also reacted at this time, looking at Fusu with a hint of dissatisfaction in his heart.

In his opinion, Fusu's words just now were a joke, and increasing taxes on the people was indeed a good idea in his opinion.

As for Fusu's statement that the people would resist the Qin Dynasty, Chun Yuyue thought it was just making a fuss.

Li Si had a smile on his face at this time, and Fusu's words just now were what he was thinking.

"Humph!"

Hu Hai was very dissatisfied. In his opinion, Fusu's words just now made no sense.

The people of Da Qin increased taxes, but they could only pay them obediently.

Anyone who dares to resist Da Qin will be suppressed directly with force.

"A good piece of water can carry a boat and also capsize it!"

"Fusu, what you said is very good. I think the same thing as you."

"The Great Qin's successive conquests and the annual taxes on the people have already made them stretched. If they increase the taxes on the people, they are forcing the people to resist the Great Qin."

"In this way, not only the problem of empty national treasury is not solved, but the world is once again in chaos."

Ying Zheng looked at Fusu with a smile on his face.

When Fusu said the first sentence just now, the First Emperor felt that Fusu said it very well.

He also wanted to see what Fusu would say next, and sure enough, Fusu did not disappoint him.

The words he just said came into his heart, especially the sentence "water can carry a boat but also capsize it."

He felt that it made sense. The reason why Qin was able to unify the six kingdoms was not only the efforts of the previous kings.

The people of Da Qin also made huge contributions, if it weren't for the young children in these people's families becoming soldiers of Da Qin.

If it weren't for these common people to supply the grain in the fields to the army, it would not be so easy for Ying Zheng to unify the six countries.

Now let him continue to increase taxes on the people. In the eyes of the First Emperor, this was making the people resist the Qin Dynasty.

"I thank my father for the compliment. I just think that the people are the foundation of the Qin Dynasty."

“If we want Da Qin to continue to exist, we must first let the people live a good life.”

Fusu's face remained calm when he heard the First Emperor's praise.

The ministers were very shocked at this time. They all heard what the First Emperor praised Fusu just now.

Yesterday, His Majesty still praised Fusu in a vague way. Today, this is the first time that he has praised Fusu in this way.

"Father, I still have something to say!"
