"Did you know that the enfeoffment system can easily lead to the loss of the big one? At that time, my country, the Qin Dynasty, was a prince created by the Emperor of Zhou. But after it became powerful, the first thing it did was to ask the Great Zhou Dynasty for the throne!"
Ying Zheng said with a coldness in his voice: "If you don't understand, now all the historical materials of the Zhou Dynasty have been brought back to the capital of Qin. Each volume contains the grievances and blood and tears of Emperor Zhou. You can take a good look!"
"Father, I believe that the enfeoffment system should be implemented in conjunction with another policy!"
While talking, Zhao Wen had already introduced the order of favor to Qin Shihuang. Zhao Wen absolutely believed that the combination of these two policies was the most perfect.
"hiss!"
After hearing what Zhao Wen said, Ying Zheng couldn't help but take a breath of cold air, and looked at Zhao Wen with a strange look in his eyes.
Originally, he heard that Zhao Wen agreed with the enfeoffment system, and thought that this son was too soft-hearted and could not bear to wrong his brothers and members of the royal family.
But now, he feels that his son's heart is darker than he imagined.
A group of nobles stayed in the Qin capital. Although their prestige was less impressive, at least they still had a title they could inherit and could continue to pass on.
But according to Zhao Wen's method of enfeoffment, if a Marquis of Ten Thousand Households has more descendants, he may become an ordinary citizen in at most three generations.
Seeing that Qin Shihuang was not talking, Zhao Wen continued to introduce: "After these people are enfeoffed, they will inevitably marry into local wealthy families, and they will also be able to greatly stabilize the areas where our Daqin governance is weak!"
"In my opinion, the combination of the feudal system and the county system is definitely the most suitable system for our country at present. As long as these people can stay in the local area stably for twenty years, when a new generation of people of Great Qin grows up, our country of Great Qin will inevitably
It’s never easy!”
If there is enough land, there will be enough food, and if there is too much food, there will be a large number of children. When the Ming Dynasty was founded, this policy was implemented to increase the population tenfold in a short period of time.
The idle land of Da Qin now far exceeds that of Ming Dynasty, and the population that can be increased is only much larger than that of Ming Dynasty. With so many people who own land, who in the world can lead them to rebel.
"I underestimated you!" Ying Zheng looked at Zhao Wen, the more he looked, the more satisfied he became. This is the heir he needs. Although he is evil-minded and ruthless, he knows what the superior should do.
Just like his suggestion to select a group of suitable officials before implementing the county system, and even let these officials serve as officials in other places, this is definitely not something ordinary people can think of, and even he has not thought of it.
"These things will be finalized tomorrow. If you have any other suggestions, please put them forward!"
Although if Zhao Wen had not stood up today, Li Si's suggestions would have been implemented. However, although he ruined his first imperial meeting after the founding of the country, Ying Zheng was still extremely satisfied with being able to get an excellent successor.
"It's just that these things today may not be completed in ten years. If my father still has time, he can let the people decide a surname for themselves during the population census!"
"Otherwise, people today are very random in naming, and there are too many people with the same name in the population, making it very easy to get confused!"
"With a surname, there is a heritage, and the people of Great Qin will have more motivation to fight!"
"This is just a small matter, isn't it?"
Ying Zheng really didn't expect that when he asked casually, his son actually put forward a very constructive suggestion, so he couldn't help but continue to ask curiously.
"My son, there is something extremely troublesome here!"
Seeing Ying Zheng's unwillingness to continue asking, Zhao Wen lowered his voice and said: "After my father unified the world, he wrote the same article, drove the same track, and walked the same path. This is unity in behavior!"
"If my father could choose a theory to promote in the world, then abandon all other theories and even select their essence to integrate into this selected theory!"
"Let this knowledge become the official doctrine of our Great Qin, and all officials will choose from it in the future."
"This is spiritual unity!"
Speaking of this, Zhao Wen said categorically: "If this happens, the people of this land will always be a whole, and there will be no possibility of division!"
"Snapped!"
The tea cup that Ying Zheng had just picked up fell instantly, and he didn't even notice that a large piece of his dragon robe was wet. He really didn't expect it, but after asking casually, his son really gave him an earth-shattering suggestion.
.
That is to say, there are only two of them here now, otherwise Ying Zheng would feel that he might be silenced.
Nowadays, the ministers in the court come from hundreds of schools of thought. If it is heard that he plans to abandon the others and choose only one, I am afraid that the entire court will suddenly become a mess.
He wouldn't even be surprised if many old guys who had never been born came out.
"Although this suggestion is good, it absolutely cannot be implemented in a short period of time, otherwise the world will be in chaos!"
Zhao Wen nodded lightly, which was also the reason why he finally raised this point, not for implementation, but to increase his weight in Qin Shihuang's heart.
Qin Shihuang definitely knew the significance of creating an empire that was unified from behavior to spirit, and he certainly could not refuse this temptation.
But the latter one can only be implemented after the world is stabilized. Who else is more suitable than the one who proposed the plan?
Looking at Zhao Wen, Ying Zheng felt that he no longer dared to ask any more questions. He was afraid that his son would tell him a policy that could not be implemented at the moment.
After all, this kind of thing that troubles one generation but can benefit generations to come. As long as it is done, it will definitely be remembered in history. No emperor can resist this temptation.
After a while, he suppressed his inner impulse, waved his hand and said: "From tomorrow on, you will go to court every day to observe the government, but you must not speak nonsense!"
He was really afraid that his son would make some suggestions and he would not be able to hold back. By then, he would be worried that he would die of exhaustion in the palace.
"It's just that what we discussed today will take at least ten years to be fully implemented. In a short period of time, I will have nothing to do if I stay in the court. I asked my father to travel around the world to increase my knowledge!"
Seeing that Ying Zheng's face suddenly darkened, Zhao Wen said with an aggrieved look on his face: "Besides, my son has no experience in handling practical affairs at all. My father can seal my son in a place so that he can learn how to deal with it."
Experience in business!”
"It's best to be in the Chu land. The Chu country is too big and far away from Guanzhong. If something happens to our great Qin in the future, it will definitely start from the Chu land!"
Zhao Wen will never forget that the most important thing to him is the stone gate in his mind. After entering it, God knows how long a mission will take. Naturally, the farther away from Guanzhong, the better.
Not to mention that there are a lot of heroes in the Chu region. With him here, Liu Bang and Xiang Yu will definitely have no chance. Instead of letting these people be buried, it is better to be by their side and contribute to themselves.
