It is a strategic resource that any country needs. Whether it is the turbulent times of the Spring and Autumn Period or the Warring States Period, or the long history of thousands of years, the Qin State has established a legal foundation. Coupled with the power of talents, why worry about not being strong?
In the past six generations, the power of the Qin State has risen sharply. The troops came out of Hangu to suppress the Guandong countries and dominate the world. This is the best example. In the current disaster, although the Qin State is in danger, after all, it is only a member of the Guandong countries on the surface.
During the rebellion, the officials involved in the foundation of the government and the public were not damaged, and the foundation of the Qin State was still there.
The murmur fell, swirled in the side hall, and lingered in Qin Wangzheng's ears. He held the bronze lamp tightly with one hand, narrowed his eyes deeply, and stared at the bronze lamp, feeling a little lost in thought.
.
Just now, due to the possible paralysis of the government office caused by the expulsion order, as well as the various signs that it may be infinitely implicated again, I intuitively realized the gloomy and terrifying nature of this monster.
Next, I heard Zhou Qing's words, which made me understand how absurd and ridiculous I would be in the eyes of the people of Guandong and many people in the government and the public if an order to expel guests was really issued.
However, why was it possible for me to agree with these elders of the Ying Qin clan just now?
Thinking about my own life journey, I returned to Qin at the age of eight, became a prince at the age of twelve, and became the king of Qin at the age of thirteen. It can be said that every step is difficult but the journey is smooth. During this period, only I know the many hardships best.
Ever since he knew that he might ascend to a great position, he had been making preparations because he did not want to be a humble person or a weak person, but he wanted to become a being that would make others and everyone in the world fear him.
Therefore, after studying hard and practicing martial arts since childhood, my mother took her back to Qin!
Therefore, in order to satisfy his father, he worked hard and did his best. Later, he defeated Cheng Jiao, who was regarded as a highly regarded person, and became the crown prince as the "evil descendant of Zhao" as the people of the old Qin Dynasty said at that time.
.
Therefore, he has been extremely cautious in ascending to the throne. During the next nine years of his journey to the virtual king, Wen Xinhou Lu Buwei has been suppressing him. Although he did not have the power to join the throne, he also gave himself the opportunity to hone himself and gave him the opportunity to improve himself.
Opportunity to observe national politics.
Yongcheng personally took charge of the ceremony, and he dealt with Marquis Changxin with thunder and lightning, and he was happy.
Later, during the Great Court Meeting, he dismissed Wen Xinhou Lu Buwei and took over the power. He was also excited.
Now, why is it possible for me to suddenly agree to the suggestions of this group of elders from the Ying Qin clan? Is it because I really hate the people of the Kwantung countries, or is it that the people of the Kwantung countries have disliked me for many years?
"For a hundred years, the Qin State has become the only powerful state, expanding its territory unparalleled. It has taken He's jade, Suihou's pearls, unparalleled swords, and thin horses from all the countries in the east of Guandong. Even though hundreds of schools underestimate Qin, Qin still possesses these."
"The founder of Taoism once said: A vast land has many grains, and a great country has many talents. Therefore, Mount Tai does not allow the soil to be scratched, so it can become big. Rivers and seas do not choose small streams, so they can be deep. A king does not exclude the common people.
, so one can understand its virtue.”
"Now the king wants to drive away guests and abandon talents in order to support the enemy's country. The "Order for Seeking Talents" is not there, so that the people of the world will retreat and dare not go west, and they will not dare to enter the Qin Dynasty. How is it different from lending troops to the invaders and providing supplies to the enemy?
also?"
"My property is not produced in Qin, but there are many treasures. Scholars are not produced in Qin, but there are many who want to be loyal. Qin wants to drive away guests to benefit the enemy's country. It is empty internally and accumulates resentment externally, harming the people and benefiting enemies. It seeks to ensure that the country is not in danger.
It’s impossible to get!”
Feeling that Qin Wangzheng was a little silent and looked a little ugly, Zhou Qing's face flashed with a smile, and then he stood up from his seat. What he just said was just to prepare for a rainy day, and as long as the expulsion order does not exist, none of this will exist.
From the corner of his eyes, he glanced at the elders of the Ying Qin clan on the side of the side hall. They were also in absolute silence at this moment. After a hundred years of reform, the Qin country has become stronger and stronger, which is a good thing for the old Qin people.
If everything goes as the master said and the old Qin people return to a weak country, where will the glory of the old Qin people be?
"Haha, how could your Majesty have such an expression? These are just the words of one person, Xuan Qing. The eviction order has not yet been issued, so what he said is just a deduction, and what he said are only possible consequences."
"Moreover, if the order to expel guests is really issued, Zhao Gao, the Shaofu Order who the king trusts, will also be expelled. He is a person of the Zhao State. Meng Tian, the Xianyang Order who the king trusts, will also be expelled. His ancestors are people of the Qi State."
"Xiong Qi, Lord of Changping, whom the king relies on, must also be expelled. He is from the Chu State. If so, the Qin State will be in danger!"
He smiled brightly, his spiritual sense moved slightly, but it was Zhao Gao, the young man's order who had been away for a long time, who returned with little Fusu. He slowly entered the side hall, stepped forward to salute him, and then saluted himself as well.
.
"If there were no guidance from the master today, and if the banishment order was really issued, Yingzheng would be the laughingstock of the ages."
"What are you still doing here? Didn't you hear the Master's words?"
Finally, listening to Xiao Fusu's crisp and tender words, Qin Wangzheng sighed deeply, placed the bronze lamp in his hand heavily on the case, stood up leisurely, and bowed deeply to Zhou Qing.
Master Xuanqing's words were not only to prevent him from issuing an order to expel guests, but also contained deep-seated ideas, which were of great benefit to him. After today, anyone who raises the issue of expelling guests will be ashamed of him.
After the ceremony, when he looked at the elders of the Ying Qin clan who were still standing firmly in the side hall, he suddenly became very angry. If they hadn't encouraged him again and again, he would not have had such a desire.
"This..., Your Majesty, let us retreat first!"
"..."
For a moment, the group of elders from the Ying Qin clan couldn't say much. They smiled at each other, bowed and retreated, and filed out. Passing by Zhou Qing, they all sighed involuntarily.
"I didn't expect that the master, as an expert outside the world, is also proficient in the governance of the country. Since I can't issue an order to expel the guests, then, what does the master think I should do next to this group of people from Guandong?"
The group of elders from the Ying Qin tribe left one after another, and the entire side hall became empty and opened up. At the same time, people from Shangshifang also quickly arrived, and the delicacies in bronze vessels were displayed one after another.
above the regulations.
Qin Wangzheng stretched out one hand and guided Zhou Qing back to his seat with a salute. This time, Zhou Qing did not refuse. Looking at the extremely well-behaved little Fusu on one side, he waved his hand and put it on the table with a gentle force.
A place of comfort.
Seeing this, Qin Wangzheng smiled slightly again, everyone returned to their respective places, and came down politely. The lids of each bronze vessel were opened, and the heat immediately rose, and all kinds of delicacies were displayed, pouring into his breath.
"In the past, Laozi, the founder of Taoism, served as the official of the Tibetan Chamber for several decades in Zhou Dynasty. He was unable to practice Buddhism in his old age. He became enlightened in one day and merged with all things. He left two classics of Taoism in front of Hangu Pass."
"The Confucian Confucian scholar Confucius understood the Tao through his studies. He jumped to the limit of martial arts and entered the level of joining the Tao and returning to the Yuan Dynasty. He is second only to our Taoist ancestor. This can be the thoroughfare of the Tao. The martial arts, the literary Tao, and the way of governing a country are basically the same.
"
"The ancestors said: To govern a big country, if you cook small delicacies and spread the Tao to the world, the ghosts will not be gods. If the king wants to dominate the world, he should have all the Xia in his mind, use the heart of the king of Qin to change the heart of the emperor, and show mercy to the people of Qin
, have pity on all the people of Xia!"
They raised their glasses to drink with each other and bowed to each other again. Facing Qin Wangzheng's calm gaze, Zhou Qing responded with a single word. As for the little Fusu on the side, he had been practicing for a long time in the morning and was a little hungry, so he started to move directly.
"Only when you hear the master's words can you realize how vast the world is and how infinite the avenue is."
Hearing this, Qin Wangzheng was silent for a long time, let out a long sigh, and drank it all in one gulp. What happened today was really beyond his expectation. He never expected that a master of his age could have such a vision and knowledge, which was beyond what he had experienced two years ago.
I have seen many Gan Luo of the Gan family.
And the master is still..., I looked at Master Xuanqing who was tasting the delicacies, and then at the little Fusu who was swallowing the fat lamb stew in small mouthfuls. Such a scene has not happened for a long time.

"Today's discussion, I want to discuss with you a proper strategy: how to prevent the people of the Six Kingdoms from entering Qin and invading the Qin State, and how to prevent the soldiers of the Six Kingdoms from taking the opportunity to cause trouble to the Qin State?"
The drought was severe, and the timing of the early court was somewhat chaotic. The court meeting that was originally held in Zhangtai Palace at Chenshi was also moved to Xingle Palace in the morning by Qin Wangzheng. After eating together with Zhou Qing, he summoned him before Zhou Qing left.
Together they entered the main hall of Xingle Palace.
There, the civil and military officials had gathered, and the officials were happy to see that the king's expression and complexion had obviously returned to his previous appearance. They were also a little surprised to see the master sitting on the far right in front of the hall, still looming in front of Lord Changping.
But it's just a little surprising. After all, in terms of status, although Lord Changping is the prime minister, he is not more noble than the protector Xuan Qingzi. Above the Qin court, etiquette comes first. Perhaps the master is here for
Take a look at the subsequent condition of the king's body.
King Qin Zheng was sitting at the top, looking down at the ministers, speaking softly, and waiting for the responses from the people below.
"I believe that it is extremely rare that the land of Qin and the land of the Three Jin Dynasties will be severely affected by drought. At this time, the famine will definitely spread. The first priority now is to immediately change the traditional national policy of Qin and no longer reward
Refugees came to Qin."
"All passes, ferries and secret mountain roads entering the Qin State must be closed to prevent hungry people from the Central Plains from flowing into the Guanzhong to compete for food. Otherwise, the people in the Guanzhong have limited food reserves and there are no mountains and forests to harvest to survive the famine. The conflicts between the old Qin people and them will rise sharply!"
Hearing this, Xiong Qi, the Lord of Changping on the side, had not yet spoken, but the Imperial Lieutenant Meng Wu stepped forward, wearing a cangyun armor, bowed his hands, and said his words clearly and resoundingly.
Moreover, in recent days, many people from the Yingqin tribe have often harassed the king. This is also an obvious example. As a national captain, he has jurisdiction over the pass and fortress, and it is his natural joint responsibility to check the inflow and outflow of the population.
Sure enough, as soon as Meng Wu's voice fell, many generals behind him and even the civil servants had many seconders. However, when King Qin Zheng, who was sitting at the top, heard this, he narrowed his eyes again and recalled Zhou Qing's words just now. For a moment,
There was no shooting.
"What do you think, Mr. Changping?"
After thinking for a few seconds, the Qin King's political general set his sights on Changping Jun among the civil servants.
"My king, what the captain said is not unreasonable. However, the population in the world is scarce, so it is necessary to absorb refugees into the Qin Dynasty. After all, the Qin Dynasty's century-old national policy is suddenly blocked. What do the people of the world think?"
"Not allowing refugees to enter Qin in years of severe drought may help the Qin people in the pass to survive the disaster and save themselves. However, if it recruits refugees in good years and rejects them in disaster years, Qin will lose its appeal to the people of the world, which seems to be an unreasonable plan."
