Chapter 169 Commentary on the post of future generations
The Emperor's Study Room in Xianyang Palace!
There are only four people in the huge study room: Hu Hai, Su Mo, Fan Jian, and Fang Youcong!
After everyone left, Su Mo and the other three returned to their mansion and were quietly taken to Xianyang Palace by Long Wei from their respective mansions!
"I think the three beauties have already guessed why I summoned you to this study after the court meeting!" Hu Hai stood up and paced back and forth a few times, and finally stopped in front of the giant map of the Qin Dynasty, and continued: "
Yes, I want the three beloved ministers and the many old Qin clans in Guanzhong to unite to support the abolition of slavery that I am talking about today!"
In the emperor's study, Su Mo, Fan Jian, and Fang You, who were secretly summoned by the emperor again, had already thought of the emperor's intentions on the way here. When they entered the emperor's study and saw the other two people, this guess became more certain.
At this time, apart from Hu Hai, there were only Su Mo, Fan Jian and Fang Cong in the emperor's study. Unlike the many courtiers who were there just now in the political hall, Su Mo and the three knew what they should say.
.
"Your Majesty, it is really too important to abolish private slaves and turn them into common people!" Su Mo stood up and bowed to Hu Hai and said!
Hu Hai waved his hand and motioned for him to sit down and continue talking.
"Nowadays, the salary and salary of the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty in our Great Qin Dynasty, as well as many people with titles and military merits, are calculated based on how many households live in the house. If we want to abolish all private slaves, I dare to ask Your Majesty, the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty and the
How should the salary for a title be calculated?”
Now that the conversation has come to this, whether it is for his own benefit or to repay the little emperor's grace for bringing the Guanzhong family back into the core of Qin's power, Su Mo knows that his Guanzhong family must make a statement tonight.
It's just that the emperor had just promoted himself and others, and he was so impatient that he and others were willing to sacrifice their lives and even wanted to dig out the foundation for him and others to gain a foothold in Da Qin. Isn't it a bit too hasty?
Therefore, Su Mo's words go straight to the core and are not hidden!
"If there are any other questions, the three beloved ministers raised them together." Hu Hai was not dissatisfied with the questions raised by Su Mo and others. After all, the abolition of private slaves basically overturned the current system of Da Qin.
A series of punishment systems is equivalent to starting over.
"Your Majesty, forgive me! It's not impossible to abolish private slaves. It's just that all the civil and military servants in the court and the private slaves in the aristocratic families will be turned into common people. Your Majesty, you know, our Da Qin family, including the clans, fields, and mansions, all the slaves.
It is supported by private slaves! Without these private slaves, I am afraid that our Qin Dynasty will be in chaos in an instant. By then, there will be great chaos in the Guanzhong!"
These are Fan Jian’s words!
"Is there anything else?" Hu Hai looked at Fang Youcong who had been silent and asked!
"I don't dare!"
As if they could hear the hint of anger in the emperor's tone, Su Mo, Fan Jian, and Fang Youcong all bowed to apologize!
"That means it's gone?" Hu Hai said without caring about the three of them pleading guilty, just minding his own business!
"I don't dare!"
"No, then everyone, please sit down and let me tell you my dear friends!" Hu Hai realized that his tone had been affected by the emotions in his heart, so he softened his tone and said calmly!
"I obey the order!"
"The people of Old Qin have been the foundation of our Great Qin ever since we were granted the title of vassals by Zhou Dynasty and established our country! In these hundreds of years, if there were not many Old Qin people guarding the borders of our Great Qin, quelling chaos, and resisting the invasion of the six kingdoms,
I'm afraid that our Great Qin would have been like those six kingdoms and perished! His Majesty the First Emperor would not be able to unify the six kingdoms and accomplish the unprecedented feat! Today, it is not my turn to sit on the throne!"
A faint look of nostalgia flashed in Hu Hai's eyes! It seemed that he wished he could have lived in the most difficult years of the Qin Dynasty, and personally shed blood for the Qin Dynasty together with the old Qin people!
Hearing Hu Hai's words, Su Mo and the others flashed a touch of emotion in their eyes!
How many people in Da Qin today can remember the contributions that Old Qin has made for Da Qin? Who in Da Qin today can remember how many bones of Old Qin people are buried under the endless land of this majestic empire?
Although the numerous Old Qin families in Guanzhong are all nobles among the Old Qin people, they have never forgotten the fact that they belong to the Old Qin people! Nor have they forgotten that the Old Qin people are willing to sacrifice everything for the sake of Great Qin.
Fist heart!
However, more and more foreigners have stolen a lot of power in the Qin Dynasty, and because of the rumors about his life experience, the First Emperor is also very wary of the clan and even the old Qin people, so that the old Qin people are not only attacked one after another.
Sent to various frontiers, to the south, to the pass and beyond to guard, the rights and benefits that can be obtained are becoming increasingly scarce!
Nowadays, even many people of the old Qin are not as good as the people of the six countries who migrated to Guanzhong! Because the people of the old Qin selflessly handed over the fertile soil of their hometown to outsiders because of the imperial edict of the First Emperor!
And this is exactly where the resentment lies in the hearts of many nobles from the old Qin family in Guanzhong!
You can give everything for the Qin Dynasty, but what do you get? The high positions in the court are stolen by outsiders, the fertile land at home is occupied by outsiders, and you are not even allowed to leave your hometown to go to the barbarian lands in the south and the bitter cold frontiers!
Is this the Great Qin that he dedicated his whole life to?
In today's Qin Dynasty, who still remembers the old Qin people? They are just the Meng family, the Li family, the Feng family, etc.! Who still remembers the endless piles of bones of the old Qin people?
"I cannot and cannot comment on the actions of the First Emperor! However, my policy of providing compensation is precisely to compensate the old Qin people who have made countless contributions to our great Qin. Today I am taking the policy of abolition not only for our great Qin, but also for our great Qin.
It is for the countless old Qin people who are old, weak, women and children all over Guanzhong today!
In order to provide a salary for the central government, I have ordered Shangfang to sell gold, copper, money, grain, iron, salt and other things that are necessary for the people. I have ordered Shangjifu to open government-run workshops in various places in Guanzhong. As long as my edict is issued, the market can be opened for benefit.
Zeguanzhong and the people of the world!
I impose heavy taxes on merchants just to suppress business and support agriculture, and to replenish the national treasury to support the people of the world! If the treasury is full, I can build ditches and canals, and farming will be smoother! Let the people of Guanzhong no longer have famine.
Worry!
Who was the Great Qin Heroes Tower built for? Wasn’t it built just for the old Qin people? Who was the compensation policy for? Since the 20th year of the First Emperor, who else could the fallen soldiers be except the old Qin people?
The people of Lao Qin are the foundation of our Great Qin, and I will never forget it. No matter who succeeds the throne to the Great Qin emperors in the future generations, they will never forget it! Up to now, I have spared no effort to bring the Lao Qin clan, represented by the three beloved ministers, back to the core of our Great Qin.
Using the position of Three Dukes to win over the Prime Minister and others, why don’t you, my beloved ministers, know it yet?”
By the end, Hu Hai was already speaking every word, like thunder!
He was indeed very annoyed. The series of measures he had taken were all to compensate the old Qin people who had sacrificed countless things for the Qin Dynasty. Of course, this was what they deserved. Why did these three guys still cling to the previous discord and never forget it?
"I am waiting for death! Your Majesty, forgive me!"
Su Mo, Fan Jian, and Fang Youcong hurriedly knelt on the ground, begging for mercy in panic!
Hu Hai looked at the three troublesome people and said calmly: "Of course, the three positions of the three princes, the prime minister, the general and the country lieutenant, can also be held!"
"When I return to the mansion today, I will summon many old Qin clans in Guanzhong to discuss the matter of private slaves! Tomorrow, I will report all the private slaves raised in each mansion to Your Majesty!" Su Mo said loudly through gritted teeth!
"I beg your Majesty to calm down!"
Fan Jian, Fang Youcong said repeatedly after Su Mo finished speaking!
"I am not angry!" Hu Hai stood in front of the huge map of Da Qin, looking at the vast land of Da Qin, and said calmly! "I summoned you and three other people here today to discuss the abolition of slavery, but I am not forcing you to
Wait for the abolition of slavery!"
"I don't dare!..."
"Shut up!" Seeing the three people still chattering, Hu Hai's anger, which had just calmed down, suddenly rose again!
"If you really want to say that I am angry, I am not angry because you and the other three people do not agree with my abolition of slaves! What I am angry about is that you and other three clans, as the core of the Great Qin and Old Qin clans, do not want to actively enter the Great Qin court.
I am fighting for the benefits that the people of Lao Qin deserve, but I am clinging to the past glory of the people of Lao Qin and working with the imperial court to break away from me! The people of Lao Qin are my tribe, not private slaves like you! You are holding on to Lao Qin.
Are you bargaining with me? Or are you just waiting to resent His Majesty the First Emperor?"
Hu Hai roared!
Hu Hai's words were like a gust of wind, blowing away the arrogance that Su Mo, Fan Jian, and Fang You had always held in their hearts! The three of them were sweating profusely and kept kowtowing!
"Don't mention the past! Today's abolition of slavery, when you go back, you will tell all the old Qin clan in Guanzhong what I said today. I am not begging them, I am saving you! I will definitely know about the abolition of slavery.
!Would you like to know?"
"I obey the order!"
"Ministers of the court, titles and salaries are replaced by gold and copper coins. The court has workshops for grain, iron and salt. The price of grain, iron and salt will be announced by the court every year! All places in the Qin Dynasty will implement it according to the price set by the court!
In the civil and military affairs of the Great Qin, people from the aristocratic houses of the aristocratic families can hire the people of Great Qin to use their work, land, etc. in the palace! But remember this is employment, not private slaves! I, the Great Qin, will no longer have private slaves! All the people of the Great Qin territory
, there is no such thing as a selfish slave anymore!
Of course, if you are not a citizen of the Qin Dynasty, I will not prohibit you from being a slave! If you go on, various organizations can go to Longxi and Liaodong to capture Qiang, Yueshi, Donghu, Fuyu and other barbarians from various places and make them slaves.
All the people, cattle, sheep, gold, silver and other things you get are your own. Except for the people and the court will charge commercial taxes, I and the court will not take any money from the rest of the things you get! All of them.
Wouldn’t it be more satisfying to own it for your own family than to enslave people of the same species like me!?”
At this point, a devilish smile appeared on Hu Hai's face!
By acting like this, does it count as the beginning of the country encouraging the robbery of private slaves? Will it leave an eternal infamy? How should future history books write about me?
But if this is not the case, how can we cultivate the wolf nature of the Chinese people? When the plundering of foreign tribes brings huge benefits to all the Qin people, then I am afraid that they will not have to use their own troops to fight externally, but the people of the entire Qin Dynasty will force themselves to use their own troops.
Only in this way can the Chinese people no longer be invaded and enslaved by foreign races!
A little bit of infamy, I was already dead at that time, let future generations comment!
