In Great Qin, perhaps one's reputation among the commoners did not have a decisive effect.
However, status was extremely important.
Everyone said that Zhao Qi was the reincarnation of a virtuous king.
This was not a bad thing.
The ancients did things with a good reason.
For example, Chen Sheng and Wu Guang.
During the uprising.
He used the books in the fish belly to create fishing boats, inspire people, establish prestige, and make the garrison soldiers believe that the Great Chu would prosper and Chen would win.
There was also Liu Bang, the chief of a pavilion in Sishui County.
A person with no background.
However, he used the technique of slashing the white snake in his dream.
He received the title of the son of the Red Emperor.
Only then did the uprising succeed.
However…
Zhao Qi didn't really care about this.
His current identity.
There was no need to deify himself anymore.
Spring left and autumn came.
A year passed quickly.
During this one year.
Under the First Emperor's orders.
The waterwheel was promoted to the greatest extent.
During the drought, people should have starved to death everywhere. Because of the appearance of the waterwheel, the common people had a bumper harvest.
Of course.
The waterwheel was not something that could be done once and for all.
The so-called harvest year.
However, they only managed to preserve the crops that were enough for the people to eat.
The yield of rice in Great Qin was not high.
The cost of farming was huge.
Many farmers could only be self-sufficient if their farmland was not affected by the disaster.
Countless young laborers were recruited to go to the battlefield.
There were countless casualties.
In addition, there were hundreds of thousands of troops in Shangjun that were led by Meng Tian to guard the border.
In order to feed these soldiers.
In terms of tax rates, it was very harsh.
Therefore…
The lives of the common people were actually very tight!
Happy! The people suffered!
Death! The people suffered!
Zhao Qi wanted to improve the lives of the commoners.
However…
Helpless.
He himself had just reached the age of three.
A three-year-old child.
There was a limit to what he could do. Many things could not be done well with his own wishful thinking.
Everything had to be done slowly.
The First Emperor approved the documents every day.
After passing through the Waterwheel World.
The First Emperor had determined that Zhao Qi was the Saint Child.
He doted on Zhao Qi even more.
Perhaps it was because he had given birth to so many sons, but he did not see hope in any of them.
The only capable eldest son, Fu Su.
However, his thoughts were being held hostage by those scholars of the scholarly faction.
She would only go against him.
The First Emperor was the one who unified the six countries. He believed that he had done more than the three emperors and had the virtue of the five emperors.
Although he was from the Legalism school.
He also ruled the country by law.
However, it wasn't as if he didn't understand the thoughts of the Confucians.
Fu Su was able to talk about the Confucian path of benevolence and righteousness in the imperial court.
That was because the First Emperor had not completely banned Confucianism.
Why not?
It was because he wanted to see the Hundred Schools of Philosophy rise up together.
However, that group of scholars could let a hundred flowers bloom.
As the emperor.
As the son of the emperor, he could not see the current situation.
Why did the First Emperor banish Fusu to Longxi?
It was precisely because Fu Su talked about benevolence and righteousness, but ran away from the current situation of the Great Qin Empire.
If the First Emperor followed Fu Su's suggestion.
Ruling the country with benevolence and righteousness.
The common people might indeed live better because there was no heavy punishment.
However, at the same time.
Those remnants of the Six Nations.
They would also take the opportunity to rebel.
Without the suppression of heavy punishment and law, the remnants of the Six Nations would definitely rise again.
This was something that could hurt the country.
However, Young Master Fusu only emphasized on governing the country with Confucian benevolence and righteousness.
Benevolent!
How could he control the Great Qin Empire with just kindness?
Therefore…
Only the First Emperor would be so sad. Fortunately, although the little imperial grandson was only three years old, he saw hope in him.
This was the reason why First Emperor Ying Zheng favored Zhao Qi so much.
……
Xianyang Palace.
The First Emperor put down the memorial in his hand.
He rubbed his head.
He felt a little tired after a long period of approval.
Basically.
When the First Emperor was replying to the memorial.
Zhao Qi sat quietly at the side and played by himself.
He didn't cry or make a fuss.
He saw the First Emperor holding his head.
Zhao Qi got up from the ground and quietly walked behind the First Emperor. He started to hit the First Emperor's shoulders with his two small fists.
The First Emperor was stunned. He turned around and smiled when he saw Zhao Qi."Good grandson, what are you doing?"
Zhao Qi revealed an innocent smile and said,"I saw that Grandfather seemed tired, so I wanted to massage Grandfather's shoulders to relieve him…"
When the First Emperor heard this, he couldn't help but smile warmly.""Hahaha, my good grandson is still filial and knows that Grandfather is tired!”
"Grandfather…rest!" Zhao Qi said.”
The First Emperor smiled and said," I want to rest too, but there are too many things waiting for me to deal with in such a large country. Looking back, there are not many people in the huge court who can help me solve my worries. There are too few talents in Great Qin! "The remnants of the anti-Qin army run amok everywhere and are endless. The officials of the Great Qin Dynasty have filled their own pockets and formed cliques for personal gain. Many officials in remote areas have even become local emperors. I am furious!"”
Zhao Qi massaged the First Emperor's shoulders.
Of course he knew.
The First Emperor didn't say this to comfort Zhao Qi.
It was only because Zhao Qi was still young.
There was no one around the First Emperor who could be described.
As time passed.
Occasionally, when the First Emperor was in a bad mood, he would treat Zhao Qi as the person to talk to.
He spoke out his worries.
It could also be considered a form of venting.
Zhao Qi was very smart.
Every time something like this happened, he would smile and not talk to her.
What a joke.
A three-year-old child was expressing too much wisdom and methods that did not match his age.
That was definitely not a good thing.
After the First Emperor recounted everything.
He looked at Zhao Qi.
"My dear grandson, you're already three years old. I plan to teach you how to read and write. Are you willing?"”
"Grandfather…I'm willing to learn. Once I've learned it, I'll be able to share your worries!" Zhao Qitian said with a smile.”
The First Emperor laughed." Hahaha…Very good. You are ambitious. You are indeed my grandson. Come, let me carry you. I will teach you how to write first…"
