Lu Buwei had been a great help to Great Qin, but he was still known as the Prime Minister by historians.
The deeper reason was Old Lu's Heavenly Dao…
It was only used to restrict the King of Qin, Ying Zheng!
That's right!
Lu Buwei's other policies and strategies were essentially the kingly way.
In the underground palace.
Ying Zheng was reminded of his past memories by Yin Gong's words.
Back then, Lu Buwei had said something to him that was still fresh in his memory.
That is to say, a monarch who has the way of governing the country does not do anything according to the situation, and does not issue an edict according to the situation, so he can make all officials and ministers have the ability to do things!
The monarch does not do anything, but the courtiers do something. The monarch holds the key, and the courtiers do their best!
Lu Buwei said that as the ruler of a country, if he focused on doing everything himself, he would be neglecting the essentials.
Without a doubt.
The young emperor had great ambitions!
How could it be inaction?
Moreover…
Ying Zheng had never seen any emperor who relied on the Heavenly Dao to make his empire strong.
From then on, Ying Zheng felt that Lu Buwei was trying to trick him.
That's right.
He was just bluffing.
Lu Buwei told him that the king only needed to sincerely manage the ancestral temple and sacrifice, pray to the gods of heaven and earth, and pray to the previous kings to bless the prosperity of Great Qin's martial arts and the rise of the country.
However, after Ying Zheng understood the entire process of Shang Yang's reform…
He knew…
If prayers and sacrifices were useful!
Was there still a need for Shang Yang's reform?
If they returned to the Shang Dynasty's system of sacrificing humans to ghosts and gods, wouldn't they be able to unify the world immediately?
In any case.
In the end.
Ying Zheng was becoming more and more resistant to the so-called Heavenly Dao, and his distrust of Lu Buwei was also growing.
Until Ying Zheng and Yan Dan turned against each other, and then he watched as his own brother was forced into a dead end.
In the end…
The appearance of Marquis of Changxin, Lao Ai, had completely broken the balance!
……
In front of the bamboo house.
" Master," Fu Su was shocked." You mean…the death of Chang 'an's Jun Chengjiao was all planned and manipulated by Lu Buwei?" However, Cheng Jiao is still the Lord of the Ying family. As a subject, how could Lu Buwei…"
"Lu Buwei is the ruler of the country and can block the pass with one hand, why wouldn't he dare?”
Yin Shang wasn't surprised by the little scholar's shocked reaction.
Young people.
There was often no specific concept of political struggles.
In reality.
The undercurrents in the court were more dangerous than on the battlefield, and it was more dangerous to kill each other.
For example, after Empress Lu won the political struggle, she immediately turned Madam Qi into a human pig!
On the other hand, Madam Qi…was really na?ve and pitiful.
"Great Qin's Ying Family is indeed too restricted in terms of power, so they don't have any ability to retaliate against powerful officials.”
Yin Shang remembered it clearly.
Under Zhao Gao's deception, the second emperor of Qin, Hu Hai, killed all the Ying family members!
It directly severed his bloodline foundation!
The title of the number one prodigal in history!
Huhai was definitely going to be the one.
However, the nature of Zhao Gao's actions was definitely not just because Huhai was brainless.
From a system perspective, it was unwise to suppress clan relatives so ruthlessly in the era when the prefecture and county system was first implemented.
For example.
When Liu Bang founded the country, why did he confer the surname Liu as a vassal king?
On one hand, Liu Bang did not have the legal basis to implement the Qin system.
After all, Old Liu was using the banner of exterminating the Qin Dynasty, so he was destined not to follow the county system.
On the other hand.
Old Liu had no choice but to confer the Liu family the title of King. Only then could he use the Liu family's power to resist the Lu family's relatives and balance the meritorious officials!
Similarly…
The Qin country should have some restrictions on the Ying family.
However, if the restrictions were too much…
It was like a racing car without brake pads.
Something would happen sooner or later.
Therefore…
In the early stages of the initial application of the prefecture and county system in the Nine Provinces, the hearts of the subjects were uncertain!
Therefore, they needed to raise the power of the Ying Family to avoid the risk of powerful officials and crafty sycophants appearing.
"Regarding the reform of the clan system, we will discuss it another day. This old man does have a concrete plan.”
Yin Shang deliberately left a hook.
Fu Su's curiosity was at its peak!
This included the First Emperor in the underground palace!
Next.
" Lu Buwei used the Heavenly Dao to restrict the King of Qin," Yin Shang said." There is no doubt that he became the Prime Minister."”
"However…Lu Buwei's new law and national policy do have many merits.”
"For example, he abolished the method of beheading the Shang Lord to record merit, effectively changing the custom of worshipping merit in the Qin country.”
……
Back then, the six countries 'evaluation of Great Qin was only one word: Tiger Wolf!
This was not a good adjective.
Instead, it involved an underlying battle of ideologies.
For example, the impression that the people of the Central Plains had of the people of Qin was always that they were covered in blood on the battlefield, with heads hanging from their waists!
Will you accept the rule of wild beasts and barbarians?
Would the Qin people accept the rule of the Qiang people in the Far West?
The two were interlinked!
The people of the Central Plains had been instilled with etiquette for hundreds of years. It was almost impossible for them to recognize the rule of the tigers and wolves in the northwest.
Therefore…
Lu Buwei chose to take the initiative to change Great Qin's image.
Abolish Shang Jun's method of beheading and recording merit!
At the same time.
He raised the banner of the righteous soldiers.
To put it bluntly, it was to retake the path of conquering Zhou on behalf of the heavens.
Was King Zhou of the Shang Dynasty really that bad?
Was it really that brutal?
Was he really going to drink wine and eat meat?
And was Su Daji really that capable of bringing disaster to the country and destroying the government?
It was not important!
The commoners did not care about the truth.
The only thing the ruling class needed to do was…they had to: A well-deserved cause!
