At the Feng Mansion, Feng Quji, the Left Prime Minister of the Great Qin, and Feng Jie, the Imperial Censor, sat down in the study room. “Father, His Majesty brought Princess Zichen to the court today. From what I have observed, Princess Zichen has such extraordinary insights at such a young age. She is truly a blessing to the Great Qin.”

"You only see the princess's extraordinaryness, but have you ever observed that among His Majesty's descendants, only one has ever been to the court. You should know that the eldest son Fusu has never participated in politics. What I am worried about now is that His Majesty has created the unprecedented Qin Dynasty, and he will choose an unprecedented heir in the future!"

Feng Jie was shocked, and without caring about his manners, he stood up suddenly: "Father, you mean, you mean, His Majesty will let the princess..."

Feng Quji interrupted immediately: "Thunder, lightning, rain and dew are all grace from the emperor. Besides, we are just subjects. We just need to do our duty and nothing else can be said."

Feng Jie looked like an eggplant hit by rain, his face was extremely colorful. Feng Quji shook his head helplessly, "Alas, the son is not like the father, the son is not like the father, I still need to practice hard." After saying that, he stroked his beard with one hand, put the other hand behind his back, shook his head and walked out of the study, his eyes full of helplessness.

...

Right Prime Minister Wang Wan was now an old and wise man, and he was leisurely brewing tea. He first put some tea leaves, then some spices, and those who didn't know would think he was cooking. His leisurely look made people wonder what he was thinking.

If someone asked Wang Wan, the Right Prime Minister of the Qin Dynasty, he would calmly scold him and make him doubt his life, and finally say leisurely, "What does it have to do with me? What does it have to do with you? Can you influence the succession of the Qin Dynasty? I don't know what you are doing!"

To be honest, Wang Wan is a mature and prudent man. It is no wonder that some people are prime ministers while others are only fit to charge into battle.

...

Li Si walked with his son Li You in silence. It was not that our future Prime Minister Li did not attach importance to this important matter of state, but that his power was not great enough and he was not qualified to influence such a major event.

For Li Si, the most important thing now is how to perfectly complete the task assigned by His Majesty and achieve a position second only to the emperor. As for the successor of the Qin Dynasty, it has nothing to do with him. What he cares about most is power.

Those who reacted the most were Prince Fusu's teacher Chunyu Yue and others. They believed that military and national affairs were men's affairs and that a little woman had no right to interfere, especially since Xiao Meiman was still a little girl.

"No, I have to go and talk to the young master. From ancient times to the present, there has never been a woman who can be orthodox. I cannot let your majesty mess up the etiquette and laws."

"At the court meeting today, Your Majesty publicly rejected the proposal of the Prime Minister to enfeoff the princes, and wanted to abolish the enfeoffment system and establish counties. This overturns the laws of our ancestors and destroys the Zhou rituals. How can we, as Confucians, allow this to happen?"

The Confucian scholars gathered around Chunyu Yue and became more and more excited: "How can we abandon the laws of our ancestors? We must let the eldest son persuade His Majesty."

So everyone went to look for their scapegoat: the eldest prince Fusu. However, the eldest prince, influenced by little Meiman, was no longer the innocent little white boy. He was a person with a lot of ignorance in his mind.

But they never imagined that the pure white dumplings with pure fillings that they thought they could do whatever they wanted with had already been infected by their sister and turned into sesame fillings.

Therefore, all the Confucian scholars were fooled by our eldest son of the Great Qin State, and after leaving Fusu’s residence, they still did not remember that they were meant to “fool people”.

Although Madam Zheng, the head of all the wives, was in charge of the Qin Shi Huang's harem, she was never made queen. Therefore, even if the people in the harem had ideas, they didn't know who to ask for help.

Moreover, no matter how stupid they were, they dared not show any courage in front of a tiger. They firmly believed that if any of them had the idea of ​​taking action, they would be chopped off before they even reached the Xianyang Palace. After all, His Majesty's Black Ice Platform was not kept for idleness.

The ladies' guess was correct. In the Xianyang Palace, Zhao Zheng was listening to the report from the Black Ice Guard.

Zhao Zheng was not surprised by the reactions of Wang Wan, Feng Quji, Li Si and others. What surprised him was Wang Jian, the old fox who almost made him become like Qin Shi Huang in history, "helping the weak and making them small".

"You mean that old fox Wang Jian actually let that little boy Wang Li have more contact with my sweetheart?"

Humph, the old man has good vision. But that little Wang Li is not worthy of my precious daughter, so his calculation is wrong. He wants his grandson with limited talent to make progress and occasionally get some good advice from Meiman, but if he stays with my little Meiman too often, he will probably become a salted fish in Mei'er's mouth," Zhao Zheng thought proudly.

"If my daughter, Meiman, has the ambition to rule the world, I will definitely make her my crown princess. Then my Great Qin will surely prosper forever."

"Fusu's performance is beyond my expectation. This child is becoming more and more like the Crown Prince Yiwen that Meiman mentioned."

"It seems that I have to scold these unfilial children more in front of Ai'er. Jianglu, that kid, is idle all day long, and Ai'er was afraid that I would punish him, so she fooled him into becoming a nerd who never puts down his books. Gao'er used to be reckless and only wanted to be a general who charged into battle, but he was also fooled by Ai'er into never putting down military books. Even Huayang and Yinman were fooled by her into rebelling against me all day long, and they either wanted to govern the place or do business." As Zhao Zheng thought about it, his usually serious face revealed a doting smile, which frightened Dunruo next to him, and he kept trying to reduce his presence.

Court the next day.

The usually taciturn Captain-General was the first to break the silence.

Wei Liao bowed to Zhao Zheng and said, "Your Majesty, the princes and princesses have grown up. I think they should be allowed to participate in government affairs as soon as possible so that they can make achievements and establish their own careers."

After a pause, he continued, "The feudal system has been abolished by His Majesty, and His Majesty has also established a rule that no one can be granted a title without merit. If I, the prince of the Great Qin, am not given a chance to gain experience, I am afraid that His Majesty will become a commoner in a hundred years."

Zhao Zheng hesitated for a moment and was about to give an order. Chunyu Yue, who could not see the situation clearly, just wanted to show his head, but was frightened by Zhao Zheng's eyes and shrank back.

"According to the report of the State Commandant, from now on, my sons and princesses will be treated the same as the common people, without any special privileges. If they want to be granted a title, they must have made some achievements. For those who govern a region, they must be rated as top twice in a row. Or only those who have made contributions to the country and the people can be granted a title."

"The title conferring by the royal family must be reformed. Those who have made great contributions to the country will be conferred as kings; those who are able to govern a region or are beneficial to the country and the people will be conferred as county princes. Those who have made contributions to the country in various industries will be conferred as dukes. Those who have no merit or achievements will be conferred as lords after they are enthroned. All fiefs granted after being conferred with titles can only enjoy taxation and cannot interfere in local governance. For royal family members who are not within the fifth degree of mourning, the above titles can be reduced by one level. For royal family members who are outside the fifth degree of mourning, they will be reduced by another level."

My seventh daughter has made great contributions to the Qin Dynasty. I now grant her a fief of 1,000 households and make her the Queen of Chen, a hereditary title."

Ignoring the distorted faces of the court officials, Zhao Zheng continued, "From now on, all talented people in our Great Qin will be able to enter the government. Official positions will no longer be hereditary, but will be held by those with talent. Anyone entering the government must pass an examination before being appointed. Officials will be evaluated every three years and replaced every five years."

"Li Si, you go down and sort out the suitable official positions for the various schools of thought and draw up regulations."

"Wang Jian, I want to establish a military academy. You are the person with the highest military achievements in our Great Qin, so I will leave this matter to you. As for your frequent illnesses, you should recover as soon as possible."

"The titles granted to people who are not members of the royal family are, in order, Duke, Marquis, Marquis (without a title), Earl, Earl of a county, and Viscount."

"To be a Duke, one must have the merit of destroying a country. Those who have destroyed two or more countries can inherit the title without change."

"Wang Jian has made great contributions to the unification of China by our Great Qin. I now confer the title of Duke of Chengguo on Wang Jian and the title of Marquis of Tongwu on his son Wang Ben. The title will be inherited by the generations to come."

"Nei Shi Teng was rewarded with the title of Xin Guo Gong for his meritorious service in destroying Han. His son inherited the title and it was demoted to Che Hou, and the title was passed down to his descendants."

"The three generations of the Meng family have made contributions to the Qin Dynasty and have also contributed to the destruction of the Qin State. I hereby confer the title of Duke of Ying on Meng Wu, which shall be hereditary and unchangeable. I also order that the Meng family be granted an earldom, which shall be inherited by Meng Wu."

"Li Xin was awarded the title of Marquis of Ning'an for his meritorious service in the attack on Yan. Huan Yi was posthumously awarded the title of Marquis of Pingyang, and his son inherited the title. Yang Duanhe was awarded the title of Earl of Yecheng, and his title was inherited. Xin Sheng, Qiang Yi, and Zhang Han were awarded the title of Earl of County, and their titles were inherited."

"Ennoble Wei Liao, Wang Wan, Feng Quji, and Li Si as county lords, and the title is hereditary."

"Sima Cuo was posthumously conferred the title of Ling'an Bo, and his descendants inherited the title after lowering their titles. Bai Qi was posthumously conferred the title of Wu'an Jun, and his descendants inherited the title of Wuguo Duke. Wei Ran was posthumously conferred the title of Ranghou, and his descendants inherited the title of Puyang Hou. Zhang Yi was posthumously conferred the title..."
