"Good, well said!"
Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded in satisfaction and clapped his hands." Wonderful! Wonderful!" This was the true meaning of the country! Although Great Qin has just gained the world, we have to guard against it! If the successor is unknown, how can we prosper our dynasty? Li Si said it well!"
Damn, my father's mouth is quite good…Isn't His Majesty going to reward me with something? Your Majesty, please reward me with more gold so that I can escape with it in the future.
Li Xing said happily in his heart,'You're still waiting for the right moment and looking forward to the future?' Great Qin was about to fall, so who would tell him this? Money was the most important thing…
You little brat…
Hearing this, Ying Zheng was delighted.
"Men, reward Minister Li with an additional 500 stone salary!”
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Five hundred stone salary?
Hearing Ying Zheng's words, many court officials 'eyes turned red.
Food…
In Great Qin, where food was scarce, to be able to provide so much food was an honor and fortune.
However, when Li Xing heard this, he was a little unhappy.
What? How am I supposed to transport the food? Gold is still useful. Why doesn't Your Majesty give me some gold?
Hehe…gold?
Ying Zheng took a glance at Li Xing, flicked his sleeve, and placed his hand on his thigh. He thought to himself,'Good boy, I won't give you any gold!'
"Good, we will establish the elder and the virtuous. I have heard the words of the two prime ministers just now.”
Ying Zheng nodded and said," I've thought about it too. Perhaps, I should really think about it carefully and take a look. Let's put this matter aside for the time being."
"Yes!"
"We accept your orders."
"Ministers, is there anything else you want to discuss?”
Ying Zheng looked around and asked.
"Your Majesty."
Feng Quji stepped forward again and put his hands together." I've been managing the nine ministers for His Majesty. These few days, I've discovered many traces of the remnants of the six dynasties who have evil intentions! These people are still harboring evil intentions. I implore Your Majesty to increase the intensity of the arrest and capture thieves everywhere to put an end to these people's wild ambitions!”
"Oh? Survivors of the Six Nations? En, then…"
Ying Zheng was about to say something when he suddenly glanced at Li Xing from the corner of his eyes. Then, he put down his sleeve that he had just lifted up and said slowly," This is a very important matter. My dear ministers, who has the best plan?”
"This…"
After hearing Ying Zheng's words, all the officials in the imperial court looked at each other and discussed among themselves.
Feng Quji was a little confused. Why did His Majesty ask about the best strategy?
Couldn't they just send someone to arrest him?
One caught was one…
If they sent more people, wouldn't they be able to catch more?
Catching thieves everywhere? Catch your sister!
Li Xing couldn't help but laugh in his heart. There were more than 20 million people from the East, but how many core nobles were there in the Six Nations? Less than five thousand people! 5,000 people hiding among 20 million people, how are you going to catch them? Sending too few soldiers would not succeed, but sending too many would be equivalent to fighting a war. The military expenditure was huge! Moreover, it would affect the entire population. Who knew how many people would be killed by mistake and how much food harvest would be delayed!
This was not the most important thing. The most important thing was that it might not have a good effect! How do you know if the other party is a noble from the Six Nations? They all had the same face, so who would write anything on their faces? Unless they were killed by mistake, killing hundreds of thousands or even millions of them, only a few hundred or only a hundred of them would be the true core nobles of the six dynasties! Was this worth it? It was a pure loss, alright?
Moreover, once this plan is out, just wait and see. There will definitely be many people who will take the opportunity to take revenge and eliminate dissidents! The people in the world were panicking. The poor people who could originally grit their teeth and endure were forced into a corner. Wouldn't they run to the other side? They didn't want to rebel at first, but in the end, they rebelled everywhere! "When that time comes, Great Qin's soldiers will have to go back and forth…
Hiss…
Hearing Li Xing's words, Ying Zheng felt his scalp tingle!
That's right!
To capture blindly, the more people they sent, the more military resources they would waste. What was the difference between this and fighting a war?
Moreover, it would be a waste of manpower and money, and it would even affect the taxes for the next year!
Food taxes were a big deal. There were so many nobles and soldiers 'families in the country who were waiting to eat!
Furthermore!
Ying Zheng was naturally aware of the power of the people.
Therefore, in order to prevent the people from having too much power, he built the Great Wall, Epang Palace, and Mount Li Mausoleum.
It was not just for the sake of building a large-scale construction project to make him feel good, but also to gather the people's strength, make it convenient for supervision and digestion of labor, so that they would not have nothing to do and be gathered to rebel.
Of course, no matter what, they had to provide food.
This was one of the oldest examples of a reasonable labor force!
If you sent people to search for them crazily, not only would they not be able to plant well, but they might also lose their lives and not be given food to eat. Who would be willing to do that?
Perhaps, he would listen to them fanning the flames and follow the remnants of the six countries to rebel!
Therefore, it was not worth it to do so. It was extremely not worth it.
Hiss, this kid's thoughts were actually so profound!
After hearing Li Xing's inner thoughts, Ying Zheng exclaimed in his heart.
Amazing, such thinking was not inferior to these three dukes and nine ministers at all!
"Li Xing…"
Ying Zheng's heart skipped a beat. He looked at Li Xing with a smile and asked," What do you think of the Prime Minister's words?”
