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

Chapter 44: Ying Zheng’s will, Fusu steals the show! Notice on the wall of Xianyang City!

"Father is wise!"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

When Fusu and all the ministers in the Qilin Palace heard what the First Emperor said, they all raised their hands and saluted.

"I love you all!"

Ying Zheng looked at everyone in the hall with a smile on his face. Now the treasury is no longer empty.

There is no need for him to impose more taxes on the people.

There was a smile on Fusu's face. The reduction of taxes on the people was what he wanted to see most.

Now that this goal has finally been achieved, Fusu believes that people's taxes will only decrease and not increase in the future.

Thinking of this, the figure of teacher Lin Xuan once again appeared in Fusu's mind. It was the method provided by the teacher.

Only by supporting Su can the problem of empty treasury be solved and the people be able to reduce taxes.

Those ministers in the main hall who opposed Fusu felt a little dissatisfied when they heard the First Emperor's words.

However, they remembered very clearly what happened to the few ministers who were taken away by the soldiers just now.

Even if I feel dissatisfied now, I can't express it.

Chunyu Yue frowned and looked at Fusu. Now Fusu was getting more and more out of his control.

Chunyu Yue was convinced that what the housekeeper said yesterday was right, and there must be someone helping Fusu behind him.

He had not believed it before, but today Chunyu believed Fusu's performance in the court.

His reputation as Fusu's teacher has become empty.

Meng Yi had a smile on his face at this time, not only because His Majesty reduced the taxes of the people.

It's even more because His Majesty agreed to Fusu's suggestion, which is a good sign for Meng Yi.

Hu Hai lowered his head and looked gloomy. Fusu's performance today made him sure that there must be someone else besides Meng Yi behind Fusu to help.

This person is the stumbling block for him to truly obtain the throne of Great Qin. Only by getting rid of this person can he have a chance to inherit the throne of Great Qin.

Thinking of this, Hu Hai glanced at his teacher Zhao Gao. At this time, Zhao Gao also looked at Hu Hai with a gloomy look on his face.

The two nodded slightly, understanding what the other person was thinking.

"Retreat!"

Ying Zheng saw that among the ministers in the hall, no one stood up to speak out and announced his resignation.

With a hint of smile, Ying Zheng left the Qilin Hall.

When the ministers saw the First Emperor leaving, they turned and left the hall.

Many ministers glanced at Fusu before leaving the hall, some with admiration in their eyes.

Some ministers had resentment in their eyes. These were ministers who were related to the squires.

Fusu's behavior today completely offended these ministers.

Hu Hai stood up with a gloomy face and hurriedly left the hall without saying hello to Fu Su.

"I admire the young master's performance in the court today!"

Wang Jian looked at Fusu and saluted with a smile on his face.

"The old general is a hero of the Qin Dynasty. Fu Suwan dare not accept the old general's salute."

Fusu quickly helped Wang Jian up.

Several ministers who were about to leave the hall were stunned when they saw this scene.

Wang Jian's status in Da Qin was very high, and Wang Jian rarely communicated with other ministers except His Majesty.

Now Wang Jian actually took the initiative to salute and praise Fusu. This was the first time they had seen Wang Jian behave like this.

Meng Yi stood aside and was stunned as he reacted with excitement on his face. He and his brother Meng Tian were also famous generals in Great Qin.

It is still incomparable with the old general Wang Jian. Now General Wang Jian praises Fusu.

This is good news for Meng Yi, which shows that General Wang Jian is optimistic about Mr. Fusu.

"Old minister retire!"

Wang Jian, who was helped up by Fusu, said something and turned around to leave the hall.

Chunyu Yue, who was standing aside, had a complicated look on his face when he saw this scene. He had not seen Wang Jian behave like this for a long time.

Chunyu Yue knew in his heart that Wang Jian would only speak like this if he was optimistic about Fusu today. This was not good news for him. Chunyu Yue glanced at Fusu who looked indifferent and turned to leave the hall.

At this time, only Meng Yi, who looked excited, and Fusu, who looked indifferent, were left in the hall.

"Fortunately, I completed your Majesty's decree today, otherwise the young master would have left the court and headed for the border."

"These ministers are really hateful. They don't want to do their part for the Qin Dynasty."

"Thinking only of your own interests, His Majesty only demoted officials to give them an advantage. In my opinion, these ministers should be executed directly."

Meng Yi said with a hint of dissatisfaction on his face.

Now when I think of Meng Yi, I still have lingering fears, if he fails to complete the will given by His Majesty today.

Not only would Fusu be cornered, but he would be cornered as well.

"General Meng, there is no need to be angry. It was me who proposed the bet."

"I believe that General Meng will definitely be able to fulfill the will given by my father. Now, not only is the treasury empty."

"They also demoted those ministers who are of no use to the Qin Dynasty. This is two pieces of good news."

Fusu praised Meng Yi with a smile on his face.

Meng Yi looked at Fusu with a smile on his face and was stunned for a moment. He saw Fusu every time not long ago.

Fusu had a sad look on his face, and his actions were not approved by His Majesty.

Meng Yi has seen Fusu's changes in the past few days. His Majesty pays more and more attention to Fusu. He can no longer see Fusu looking sad.

Every time I see Fusu, he always has an indifferent expression, or he has a cold look on his face when something happens.

While Meng Yi was happy, he also felt a little worried in his heart.

"Young Master has changed in the past few days. I almost don't recognize him anymore."

Meng Yi looked at Fusu with a hint of emotion on his face. He believed that not only his ministers but also many ministers had such thoughts.

Meng Yi thought about talking about Fusu with his daughter a few days ago, and he was now basically sure that there was someone helping behind Fusu.

But this is no hindrance to Meng Yi. He is eager for this person to help Mr. Su.

Meng Yi made a decision in his heart and would not tell anyone what he was thinking.

"Fusu will still be Fusu. General Meng can just treat Fusu as he did before."

"The problem of the empty treasury has been solved, and notices have been posted on the walls of Xianyang City."

"Other counties will also post notices, and the people will be very happy to know the news."

Fusu said the notice with a smile on his face.

Xianyang City streets!
"Everyone, go to the city gate quickly, the government has posted a new notice!"

Several police officers beat gongs and walked down the street shouting.

After hearing the police officer's words, the expressions of the people on the street changed slightly.

Every time Daqin posted a notice, it meant something big was going to happen, and these people were worried and didn't know what was going to happen.

People on the street went to the city gate one after another, and soon the city gate was crowded with people.

A large notice was posted on the city wall, and there were several soldiers around to protect the notice from being torn down by the people.

An old man stood next to the notice. This old man read the notice specifically.

"Folks, this is a new notice issued by His Majesty, and it is related to taxes!"

The old man looked at the dense crowd and shouted loudly.

Hearing the old man's words, the faces of the people around him changed drastically.

"The Great Qin conquered the six kingdoms and increased taxes, so the folks couldn't stand it. Now that the Great Qin has unified the country and increased the taxes, what will the folks do?"

"Hey! It's unfair for those squires to have so much fertile land and pay the same taxes as us common people!"

"It's also related to taxes. I hope we won't increase taxes too much."

The people standing by the city gate had a look of disappointment on their faces.

In their view, this notice means increasing taxes.

The old man looked at the frustrated people below with a smile on his face:
"The folks have misunderstood this time. The notice issued by His Majesty is not to increase taxes!"
