"Imperial Censor of the Bureau of Governmental Affairs, Minister of Justice, Minister of War, Commander-in-Chief of the Front Army, Commander-in-Chief of the Central Army, please wait.”
Just as the officials dispersed and left.
The attendants in front of the palace suddenly stopped Liu Bowen, Kou Zhun, Fa Zheng, Xu Shu, and Zhangsun Sheng.
"Hmm?"
The four of them revealed puzzled expressions.
"His Highness has something important to discuss with the four sirs.”
The attendant in front of the hall led Liu Bowen and the other three to the back hall.
At this moment.
Ying Fei was looking at the huge map hanging in the middle of the rear hall.
This map was created by the system and recorded the current distribution of forces in various regions of the world, including the six continents and seven oceans.
Other than Europe, Asia, and North Africa, there were no civilizations in the other continents that had entered a feudal society.
Although there were Maya, Aztec, and Inca civilizations in America, they were still in the prehistoric settlement state during this period and had not entered the city-state era.
Based on the map, Ying Fei's faction was only second to Great Qin and the Peacock Dynasty in terms of size and population.
Once the Ptolemy Dynasty, Great Xia, Rome, Carthage, and Macedon were destroyed, the territory would be equivalent to the Alexander Empire at its peak.
However, the population far exceeded that of Alexander's era, approaching 30 million.
With such a large territory and population, there must be a comprehensive plan.
The six armies and the five armies were just the beginning.
The system of twelve lords was essentially no different from the system of twenty nobles.
Ever since Shang Yang's reform, there were only tens to hundreds of acres of land in Great Qin.
However, the fief above that was very large.
Therefore, he had always adhered to the principle that the fief belonged to the country.
Whether it was Wei Yang's fief of Shangyu, Yaliji's fief of Hanshui, or Lord Wuxin's fief of Zhang Yi, they were all empty fiefs.
Qin law, engraved in the ancestral temple, hanging on the gate.
There was a rule that meritorious officials should be granted empty titles, and the marquis 'land should not exceed sixty miles, so they had no power to govern.
What a joke. Once they were sealed, they would have the power to rule the people and collect taxes. Then they would crazily train their soldiers.
At that time, it would definitely become a chaotic situation like the Western Han Dynasty, and the fief would once again become an autonomous clan that avoided the county government.
Thousands of years later, the dynasty was destroyed in less than a hundred years, but the aristocratic families existed forever.
The great clans were involved in the destruction of every dynasty. Wasn't that ridiculous?
In Ying Fei's plan, other than the undeveloped America, Oceania, and Central South Africa, he would not give them any land.
"Greetings, Your Highness!"
At this moment, the door of the hall opened quietly, and Liu Bowen and the others walked in.
After seeing Ying Fei, he hurriedly bowed and greeted him.
"There's no need to be so polite. Take a seat first."
Ying Fei glanced at them and waved his hand.
The attendants in front of the hall served the tea that had been brewed.
Liu Bowen and the others took their seats in the hall.
Immediately after, a fierce look flashed across Ying Fei's eyes as he shouted in a low voice,"
"Pass down the order to close the door. No one is allowed to enter or leave without permission.”
"Yes!"
The attendant's face turned cold when he heard that and he hurriedly walked out.
He closed the door and arranged for the guards to guard the palace to prevent anyone from eavesdropping.
Today's matter concerned the safety of the Qin army, so they couldn't be careless.
"Da da!"
Immediately after.
Dozens of fully-armed Imperial Guards stood guard outside the hall.
All of them had solemn expressions and exuded a killing intent.
They were elites who had followed Yong Jun and Ying Fei all the way from Great Qin, and their loyalty was unquestionable.
......
Due to the lack of time, Chang 'an Magistrate Bao Zheng did not have time to renovate the palace.
They could only decorate the main hall and back hall in Great Qin's style.
The exterior was an ancient Greek building, but the interior was covered with black carpets, tables and chairs. It was rough and heavy.
The previous kings of Qin never cared about luxury, and preferred simplicity and practicality.
Ying Fei also inherited this point.
Unknowingly, the night had completely fallen, and the surroundings were dark.
Although there were many candles in the hall, they were constantly flickering.
However, the charcoal fire in the center was burning brightly, causing the entire hall to be lit up.
The bookshelves on both sides were filled with bamboo slips, all of which were the ancient books collected by the previous kings of Qin that Ying Fei had brought from Guanzhong.
Sometimes, Ying Fei would also double the amount. However, this bamboo scroll was cumbersome and not as light as a book.
However, he had been fighting for so long that he had no time to study the technology of people's livelihood, so he temporarily put aside the art of paper making and printing.
At this moment, Liu Bowen, Fa Zheng, Kou Zhun, Xu Shu, and Zhangsun Sheng were all focused on the center of the hall.
It was a massive map that covered Great Qin, the Western Regions, and the various kingdoms of West Earth.
On the right side of the map, a long sword was placed on a shelf. Facing the fire, it flickered with a strange light.
It was the Duke Mu's Qin Suppressing Sword.
"Kou Zhun."
Ying Fei first looked at the Minister of Justice and said in a deep voice,""Punishment is not superior to a doctor, and etiquette is not inferior to a commoner.”
Kou Zhun's heart trembled and he immediately replied,""Your Highness."
"The Spring and Autumn Book of Rites says that etiquette is not inferior to commoners, and punishment is not superior to doctors.”
"It means that we don't have to be too harsh on the interests of the commoners, and we can't abuse justice on the doctors.”
"Well said. The dignity of the criminal law cannot be looked at directly.”
"The previous kings of the Great Qin Dynasty inherited the will of the Shang King and had the opportunity to unify the country.”
Through the dark curtain, Ying Fei was silent.
Unifying the world had never been an easy thing.
The Shang Dynasty destroyed the Xia Dynasty, which was the credit of the two generations. The Zhou Dynasty destroyed the Shang Dynasty, which lasted for three generations and a hundred years. The State of Qin was the first emperor of Qin after six generations.
It was easy to conquer the world, but it was difficult to rule the world. One careless move would lose the whole game.
However, the Great Qin Empire had Huhai and the others, and hundreds of years of hard work had gone to waste.
Today, he was going to re-establish the laws of Great Qin.
"Pass down the edict."
"The Ministry of Justice and the Supreme Court have revised the Qin law.”
"Carve a stone tablet and place it in front of the palace.”
"If the emperor breaks the law, he will be punished the same as the commoners. Anyone who dares to break the law will be severely punished.”
"Yes!"
The Minister of Justice, Kou Zhun, quickly responded and left.
Liu Bowen, Xu Shu, Fa Zheng, and Zhangsun Sheng all looked solemn.
The Qin Dynasty strengthened the rule of law, and there were wise kings in each generation. This was the policy of stabilizing the country.
