My Great Qin Cannot Die

Chapter 157: The battle between Wei Liao and Wang Wan

In the Great Qin Empire, Qin Fa Zhaozhao.

First, the king of Shang sanctioned the prince Fu Yingqian with the law, and then the king of Zhaoxiang made an agreement with the iron tablet: the king does not bend the law, and the law does not belong to you.

In the Great Qin Empire, no matter whether it is a great Qin meritorious deed or an old family, once a court official enters the official office of the Tingwei Mansion, even if he is immortal, his skin will peel off.

Therefore, the implementation of Qin's law is extremely strict, but it is also cruel in the process.

Until the last moment, Ying Zheng was reluctant to send the officials of the Great Qin Empire into the official office of the Tingwei Mansion, especially because it was just to provoke his majesty.

Since Shang Yang's reform, he has always emphasized light crimes and heavy punishments, and advocated that punishment should be punished by punishment. This policy has been carried out perfectly and has been respected and inherited by successive monarchs.

However, although Ying Zheng did not intend to send the county governors from various places to the official offices of the Tingwei Mansion, he still had to teach them a lesson, so that these ministers would not be taught a lesson.

These people, he can't change all of them at once, and many people still need to continue to be appointed. Under such circumstances, beating and beating is conducive to the unity of the monarch and his ministers.

……

After taking a bite of the cake, Wang Wan noticed that the atmosphere in the study was a little strange, Ying Zheng didn't speak, just looked at them quietly.

And Wei Liao and he were both eating pastries, so that the atmosphere in the study became more and more strange.

After eating the last half of the cake in his hand, Wang Wan raised his head to look at Ying Zheng, and said, "Your Majesty, Cai Zhong and some officials of the Tenth Bureau of Economic Affairs, regarding the manpower and material resources needed for the entire Chidao and Zhidao in the first emperor's thirty years. An estimate was made."

"The number is extremely large. Cai Zhong's intention is to suspend some projects in order to ensure the internal stability of the Daqin Empire and the steady progress of land reform."

"After all, when the fields are divided, the people of the country will inevitably lack crops to grow, and they will also lack young and strong labor..."

……

It is not only Cai Zhong's idea to suspend some projects, but also the national government's idea. At this time, the Great Qin Empire needs to develop with one heart and one mind.

Although Cai Zhong and Wang Wan did not understand the economic concept of later generations, they probably understood one or two things about what Shang Ying Zheng meant, that the economic base determines the superstructure.

Only when the economic foundation is solid can the superstructure develop. Therefore, after discussion, the national government believes that part of the construction of the galloping road and the straight road should be stopped at this time.

Ying Zheng had also heard about this matter, and he knew in his heart that there had been such news from the government two months ago.

Although the national treasury has been enriched a lot due to land reform, the discussion on land reform has never been one-sided in the Qin Empire, from the imperial court to the common people.

Among them, there are also some officials who sing badly about the land reform. They have no illusions about the tax revenue after the land reform, and even think that they should take precautions.

Whether it is the straight road project, the galloping road project, or even the Daqin Building crew in Dandong Port, the army of the Southern Expedition that is about to withdraw, they are all big spenders of money and food.

The withdrawal of the army in the southern expedition was related to the implementation of land reform in Chu. The army in the north was defending the Xiongnu, and no one dared to mention the reduction of food and forage.

At this time, the only goal is to run the road and the straight road project. After all, the consumption of money and food on the straight road and on the road is no less than the consumption of the northern army and the southern army.

It's just that Ying Zheng doesn't agree with this statement, and they have different ideas.

The officials in the government only wanted to make the construction of the Daqin Empire flourish, but in Ying Zheng's heart, he wanted to build a big world for the people of Daqin.

He dreams of an empire where the sun never sets, and dreams of Qin land wherever the sword and horse go.

"Since construction has started, and the laborers on the major projects have not returned, they cannot be withdrawn. Internal conflicts and struggles can still be suppressed and dealt with by me."

Putting down the wine cup in his hand, Ying Zheng glanced at Wang Wan and Wei Liao, and said in a somber tone, "But the chaos in the north and south must be suppressed by a large army. The remnants of the Six Nations are very ambitious, and the major families have shown their dislike towards Da Qin."

"At this time, the galloping road cannot be stopped, and the straight road was established in the Daqin Empire to ensure the continuous supply of food in the process of attacking the Xiongnu from the north."

"So the straight road can't stop..."

……

At this moment, Wei Liao couldn't sit still.

In the final analysis, whether it is to build a gallop or a straight road, a large part of the reason is for marching and fighting, and it is for the great Qin Ruishi.

At this time, he naturally couldn't just sit back and ignore it. After all, Wang Wan, the head of the civil servants, had already taken action himself.

Seeing Ying Zheng's refusal, Wei Liao also stood up and bowed solemnly to Ying Zheng, and said, "Your Majesty, this minister also thinks that it should not be suspended. Compared with internal worries, external troubles should not be underestimated."

"As long as Your Majesty is here, no one in the world will be in chaos, and even if there is chaos, the imperial court has already made preparations."

"As for the problem of insufficient money and grain mentioned by Prime Minister Wang, the treasury will be filled with each passing day due to the land reform. As for the lack of crops and labor for the people of the country ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ can only be solved by the government."

"You can be like Li Xiang, borrowing grain to grow the people..."

……

Glancing at Yu Liao, Ying Zheng nodded: "The straight road and the galloping road project cannot be stopped, and the money for the same army in the southern expedition and the army in the north cannot be reduced."

"They all fought for me, Daqin, and fought **** battles for me. I can't treat them badly!"

Having said that, Ying Zheng took a deep look at Wang Wan and said, "Prime Minister, you and Cai Zhong will discuss this matter again. I have already stopped the Lishan Mausoleum and the Great Wall. The government should be content!"

As an emperor through the ages, Ying Zheng's monarchical skills are naturally consummate. From Wang Wan's remarks, he smelled some different information.

Some officials in the state are not greedy enough. He has already stopped the Lishan Mausoleum and other projects, just for the better recuperation of the Qin Empire.

However, these people had to make an inch, and actually wanted him to suspend other projects.

"The minister obeys the edict!"

With a long sigh, Wang Wan shook her head with a look of helplessness. He knew in his heart that the demands of the government were rejected by Ying Zheng.

The same Wang Wan knew Ying Zheng better than anyone else. He naturally knew that Ying Zheng's belligerence and ambition made it impossible to stop the straight project.

However, what caught Wang Wan by surprise was that Ying Zheng was not only unwilling to stop the straight project, but also unwilling to stop the gallop.

……

"Your Majesty, the army of the Southern Expedition has already started to withdraw, and the vanguard army led by Zhao Tuo has entered the land of Chu..."

Seeing that he had already won without taking a shot, Yu Liao raised the corner of his mouth slightly, then bowed solemnly towards Ying Zheng, and said, "There is a military report from Ren Xiao, please show your majesty the next deployment of the army for the southern expedition."
