There was a flash of joy in Ying Zheng's eyes.

life!

he likes.

As long as he lives long enough and is given time to deal with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms and reform the current Qin legal system, he believes that his Great Qin will never go down the path of destruction in the second generation!

But work and rest...

A hint of disdain flashed across Ying Zheng's eyes.

Isn't time meant for handling government affairs? If one sits in a high position just for pleasure, then is there any need for this country to exist?

Unlike Ying Zheng, all the ministers below took Zhou Jia's words to heart. They knew that their Majesty must not be too tired and must combine work and rest.

But when the ministers thought about it carefully, they all looked sad again.

Who dares to go up and ask His Majesty to stop what he is doing and rest?

"In addition to this, there are the laws of the Qin Dynasty. Many people in later generations said that the laws of the Qin Dynasty were harsh. I can understand that. After all, there was no reference at the time except the laws left by Shang Yang.

How can I say Shang Yang's reforms? They were indeed useful to the Qin State before it was unified, but they were no longer applicable to the unified Qin Dynasty. So they could only try and make mistakes bit by bit. No law can be completely perfect when it is first proposed, but I can find laws from other dynasties and modern times for your Majesty to refer to. "

These words made Li Si look up immediately.

The laws of later dynasties!

Li Si looked at Ying Zheng with burning eyes, but unfortunately Ying Zheng did not notice him. He was still thinking about the fortification problem Zhou Jia mentioned. The imperial mausoleum and Afang Palace had been temporarily put aside by him. He was more concerned about the Great Wall.

The most important thing is that with Zhou Jia's existence, the people of the world's views on Qin will probably undergo some subtle changes. If he implements policies that benefit the people at this time, it will help them win back the hearts of the people. However, they still need to consider carefully how to do it specifically.

Ying Zheng was thinking about how to better handle the Qin Dynasty. As the two protagonists of Shang Yang's reform, they were very cautious at this time. "Shang Jun, what do you think of what the later generations said?"

Ying Quliang looked at Shang Yang and asked, with some worry in his eyes.

However, unlike what he imagined, Shang Yang did not have much emotional fluctuations about Zhou Jia's statement that his reforms were no longer suitable for the unified Qin Dynasty. He smiled and said, "Although I don't know what kind of situation the unified Qin Dynasty is suitable for, I know that any new reform will not be suitable for the national conditions one day. The reforms that Miss Zhou Jia said are suitable for the pre-unified Qin Dynasty, and I am satisfied."

Shang Yang's eyes were full of satisfaction. Ying Quliang looked at him and said silently: "I am narrow-minded."

The king and his minister smiled at each other and looked at the screen at the same time, only to see a trace of disgust flash across Zhou Jia's face.

"Although these are all your Majesty's faults, in my opinion, your Majesty's greatest fault in this life was letting Xu Fu take 3,000 boys and girls to Penglai, which led to the creation of a disgusting country. So your Majesty, you should keep Xu Fu and torture him slowly. Don't let him die. He doesn't deserve a quick death. As for Hu Hai and Zhao Gao, please all of you treat them with the most severe punishment you can think of. Thank you."

There was seriousness in Zhou Jia's eyes.

Ying Zheng narrowed his eyes and stared at the three people below. He was really angry about what these three people had done to make Zhou Jia so disgusted.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, please spare my life!" Seeing Ying Zheng staring at him, Zhao Gao prostrated himself on the ground and begged for mercy. Hu Hai also cried with tears and snot.

"Noisy!"

Ying Zheng's cold voice resounded throughout the Xianyang Palace. Hu Hai was frightened and quickly closed his mouth, not daring to howl loudly anymore.

“Back to the point, after unifying the six kingdoms, the measures that Ying Zheng enacted were both right and wrong, but history did not favor him particularly because he was an emperor.

In 210 BC, the -year-old Ying Zheng once again boarded the carriage for his fifth eastern tour. When he arrived at the Shaqiu Palace, Ying Zheng was already terminally ill and had not much time left. At that time, his eldest son Fusu and minister Meng Tian, ​​whom he valued, were still in Shangjun. Only the eunuch Zhao Gao, Prime Minister Li Si, his eighteenth son Hu Hai, and Meng Tian's younger brother Meng Yi were with him.

The key to the matter was Meng Yi. As His Majesty was seriously ill, Meng Yi went out to pray to the gods, but before Meng Yi returned to Shaqiu, His Majesty passed away. Before His Majesty died, he ordered Prince Fusu to return to Xianyang. But after His Majesty died, Zhao Gao looked at His Majesty's body and the jade seal on the table, and had an extremely bold idea! "

Zhou Jia stopped talking here.

Ying Zheng listened to Zhou Jia's words and figured out the key to it after just a little thought. He stood up suddenly, and shot a cold gaze at Zhao Gao who was kneeling on the ground. He gritted his teeth and said, "So that's how it is, Zhao Gao, I underestimated you!"

Ying Zheng suddenly felt a little ridiculous. He prided himself on being wise, but he didn't expect to be tricked after his death!

Correctional edict.

Yes, the edict was forged, and he died in Shaqiu. Meng Yi was not there, and the person closest to him was Zhao Gao. If Fusu came to power and was close to Meng Tian and Meng Yi, he would naturally not value Zhao Gao. What's more, Meng Yi and Zhao Gao had been unhappy before. In this case, he concealed the news of his death and supported the Eighteenth Prince who only knew how to eat, drink and have fun to come to power. In addition, he was Hu Hai's teacher, so Zhao Gao would always hold power one day.

However, he still needed to win over a person of status and power to build this lie with him, so that everyone would be convinced that the fake edict was the real one. The person he chose at that time was naturally...

His eyes swept over Li Si. Perhaps because he had been betrayed so many times, he didn't feel anything when looking at Li Si now.

It was just a little exhausting. After his death, a small eunuch was able to change all his edicts, and Hu Hai took the throne...

He didn't even dare to think about what Daqin would become!

But Zhou Jia didn't give him a chance to catch his breath and continued:

"That's right, Zhao Gao forged the imperial edict, and passed the throne to the eighteenth prince Hu Hai. At the same time, he ordered Prince Fusu to commit suicide. The edict was quickly delivered to Fusu in Shangjun. Upon hearing the edict, Meng Tian immediately realized that something was wrong and suggested that Fusu write a letter to Ying Zheng, but Fusu didn't. He only said, 'A father has ordered his son to die, why should he ask for permission?', which meant that a father wanted his son to die, so why should he ask for permission? Then he drew his sword and committed suicide without saying a word.

"you dare!"

When Ying Zheng heard that Fusu was ordered to commit suicide, he kicked Zhao Gao to the ground. His eyes were bloodshot and filled with murderous intent. Meng Tian and other ministers immediately knelt on the ground in silence.

Fusu listened in a daze as Zhou Jia narrated everything in an extremely calm manner. He was a little unable to react. He just died like that?

Zhou Jia sighed helplessly and rubbed his face.

"My Lord Fusu, in your eyes, is your father such a cruel person? He can even kill his own son? Even a tiger won't eat its own cubs.

I really don't understand what you are thinking? Your father, Ying Zheng, was a famous tyrant in history. He was cursed by scholars all over the world, but you, Fusu, have a ridiculously good reputation among scholars. Even the banners raised by Chen Sheng and Wu Guang's uprising and Liu Bang's uprising were all for revenge for you, Fusu. Who in the world doesn't know your reputation for benevolence and righteousness?

You are treated uniquely among other princes, right? Yes, you don't have the status of a prince, but everyone in the Qin Dynasty knows that you, Fusu, are the heir appointed by Ying Zheng. If an emperor is narrow-minded, would he allow his prince to win the hearts of the people? Would he allow you to contradict him every time in the court and embarrass him? "
