Yin Shang was very satisfied with Fu Su's attitude.
Next.
The old and the young began to work on the stir-fried wild game.
At the same time, in the underground palace.
Emperor Ying Zheng's stomach growled twice in embarrassment, but neither Zhao Gao nor Meng Yi dared to disturb him.
At this moment, Ying Zheng's eyes shone brightly!
He now had the support of Duke Yin's theory that the law of production determined the development of the system.
Ying Zheng felt that…all his persistence in the past had been affirmed!
One must know!
The Qin Dynasty ruled the Nine Regions with the prefecture and county system, which was a pioneering national policy from zero to one!
This was because Shang and Zhou had implemented enfeoffment!
In front of Ying Zheng, there was no experience of the previous dynasty that he could refer to.
This was why the 72 scholars of the scholarly faction had dared to speak out their proposal to restart the enfeoffment system and began to gain the tacit approval of some of the officials.
After all, the unknown development of the prefecture and county system was far less reassuring than the known progress of the enfeoffment system.
Of course.
There were definitely many political and interest games involved.
Among the nobles with military merits, there might be people who wanted to split the land and be crowned king, such as Ren Xiao and Zhao Tuo who would rule the Yue in the future…
However, due to the existence of the First Emperor, no one dared to act rashly.
However, the First Emperor would die one day…
Therefore!
At that time, the importance of the basic theory of the system would be demonstrated!
If there were any officials who dared to use the banner of reopening the enfeoffment system to subvert it!
Then Yin Shang's words today would be useful!
In addition, if one looked at the present situation, Yin Shang's words of advice had first swept away the original twisted Confucian logic in Fu Su's heart.
After that, he affirmed the First Emperor's policy of implementing the prefecture and county system!
This was very important…
When the Great Qin attacked the Chu Kingdom, Ying Zheng did not agree to the request of the Qu, Jing, and Zhao Clans to restart the enfeoffment system, so he sent the famous general Li Xin to lead an army of 200,000 to attack the Chu Kingdom!
In the end, Li Xin was defeated!
The 200,000 elite soldiers of Great Qin were completely annihilated!
This was one of the costs of implementing the enfeoffment system in the Nine Provinces!
If Yin Shang had said that Ying Zheng's insistence on the implementation of the prefecture and county system was meaningless, then the First Emperor would have probably jumped up and down on the spot. After all, the national policy reform had shed too much blood, and even the First Emperor would probably not be able to accept the scene of the basic national policy being denied.
Therefore, he had no choice.
Now, the feeling that surged in Ying Zheng's heart... the feeling of being understood and supported, one could imagine how strong it was...
"The one who knows me is Yin Gong!"
Ying Zheng said quietly.
Indeed, he did not consider the inevitable connection between productivity improvement and system evolution.
However, he instinctively insisted that since the enfeoffment system wasn't perfect, the feudal lords would sooner or later split up their territories.
Then why couldn't they create a more perfect imperial system?
Back then, Duke Xiao of Qin and Shang Yang had also resolutely implemented the system of granting land, the system of twenty ranks of military merits, and the system of beheading and recording merits!
This was how the Great Qin Empire, which had unified the Nine Continents, came to be!
In that case…
Qin Shi Huang expressed that he also wanted to be an emperor who had created the ancient Qin system.
Perhaps it was this sense of mission that made Ying Zheng especially persistent about the prefecture and county system.
Otherwise…
The Confucianists 'theory of enfeoffment, winning the hearts of the scholars and ministers of the six states, and strengthening the basic administrative rule of the Great Qin might really shake Ying Zheng.
After all, from the looks of it, what the scholarly faction said seemed to make sense.
Furthermore, he had many supporters.
Fortunately, Yin Shang had given Ying Zheng a theory of the essential law of the evolution of the system to perfect and support his national policy: The implementation of the county system.
With the theoretical basis of the intrinsic laws, at the very least, they could form a certain degree of confrontation and suppression against the Confucian faction in the future!
It could also make more officials acknowledge the county system from the bottom of their hearts.
Not because of the emperor's authority.
Beside him.
Meng Yi and Zhao Gao naturally respected Duke Yin greatly.
As expected of a Daoist Grand Supreme.
His knowledge and realm were both extraordinary.
Zhao Gao expressed that he would definitely be more careful in the process of perfecting the underground palace. He definitely could not scare away this peerless expert.
Meng Yi, on the other hand, wanted to invite Duke Yin into the world from the bottom of his heart.
Because as long as Duke Yi was present in the royal court, the 72 scholars of the scholarly faction were all useless!
……
In front of the bamboo house.
Yin Shang and Fu Su quickly prepared the delicacies, as well as a pot of Fiery Cloud Roast.
Hence, the two of them started toasting each other.
After a few drinks.
Yin Shangcai returned to the main topic and said,"Little scholar, we just said that using the enfeoffment system to recruit scholars from the Nine Provinces and consolidate the rule of the Great Qin Empire is an act that is reversing history.”
Master, if we can't recruit them through the system, then…"
Fu Su opened his mouth, but he did not say the other extreme way to deal with him.
Yin Shang saw through it at a glance and said," Kill…we definitely can't kill them. In the 800 years of Great Zhou, there were nearly a million people at the scholar level! If they killed the officials of the Central Plains, it meant that they would slaughter the entire Nine Provinces!”
Fu Su was speechless.
