Longevity by Picking up Attributes in the Battlefield-Chapter 735 - 302: Humble Hu Hai! The Different Treatment of Zhao Zheng’s Son and Ying Zheng’s Son! (2)
After all, Ying Zheng is still in the prime of his life, and future events are unpredictable.
What if Zhao Feng meets an untimely death?
Then Fusu will have a chance.
But once Fusu leaves Xianyang, everything becomes uncertain, equating to completely losing the opportunity.
Upon hearing the two choices given by Ying Zheng.
Fusu stepped forward without the slightest hesitation and said, "I choose to govern a commandery."
"There are many ministers handling affairs in Xianyang, I am merely idle, but if I go to a commandery and govern it, I can improve the lives of the people there, which I am willing to do."
Upon hearing this.
The faces of ministers like Huai Zhuang, who supported Fusu, completely changed.
Seeing Fusu make such a choice.
Ying Zheng nodded with a look of gratification, "Not bad."
"I support your decision."
Fusu bowed, "Thank you, Father Emperor; if possible, please give me a prefectural city where the people live very hard, I am willing to give my all."
"Chancellor Han."
Ying Zheng looked towards Han Fei.
"In response to Emperor Qin Shi Huang."
"Yanmen Commandery in Dai Territory is adjacent to foreign tribes and is a poor commandery." Han Fei said slowly.
’I choose Yanmen Commandery.’ Fusu immediately replied.
"Fusu, you need to be sure."
"Yanmen is several thousand miles away from Xianyang and is located in the impoverished Northern Frontier." Ying Zheng was still somewhat worried.
"All along."
"Father Emperor has cultivated me greatly, hoping I can become talented, but I constantly anger Father Emperor, disappointing his expectations."
"Now that there is a choice."
"I hope to do my best for Father Emperor, and hope to improve the lives of Qin people within my capabilities."
"I plead Father Emperor to fulfill this." Fusu bowed respectfully.
Hearing Fusu’s words.
Ying Zheng felt touched in his heart, ultimately nodding, "In that case, I fulfill you."
"However, Yanmen Commandery borders foreign tribes and is not safe."
"I will send a thousand Imperial Guard Army to accompany and protect you."
"This matter is non-negotiable."
Fusu bowed, "Thank you, Father Emperor."
After expressing gratitude.
Fusu directly retreated.
He completely ignored the changed faces of the many ministers supporting him, perhaps having decided what to do when he made this decision.
"Fusu is still smart."
"By doing this, he cuts off the thoughts of people like Huai Zhuang, and it’s considered doing his utmost to offer them a path to survival."
"He knows if I act, it would leave no aftermath."
Regarding Fusu’s actions, Zhao Feng simply smiled calmly, penetrating the purpose.
But.
With Fusu’s choice.
Naturally, there are those unwilling to accept.
"Reporting to Emperor Qin Shi Huang."
"The minister has a memorial to present."
Chunyu Yue stepped forward and shouted loudly.
Seeing Chunyu Yue, Ying Zheng frowned, but in the court, any minister can present memorials, and Ying Zheng could not refuse.
"Speak." Ying Zheng said coldly.
"Currently."
"Qin under Emperor Qin Shi Huang has achieved the wish of the historical Kings of Qin, fulfilled the wish of the old Qin people, and successfully unified the world."
"However."
"The world is vast and needs governance."
"Although the world is in control, undercurrents are constant, remnants of the Six States secretly stir trouble."
"I believe."
"It is appropriate to implement ancestral customs, bestowing titles upon kings to stabilize the world for Qin and protect Qin."
"To prevent foreign tribes’ kings from being disloyal, harboring different intentions."
"I believe Emperor Qin Shi Huang can grant titles to princes, managing various states under heaven, stabilizing the world."
Chunyu Yue presented loudly in one breath.
After hearing those words.
It’s clear Chunyu Yue had prepared for a long time; otherwise, his speech wouldn’t be so fluent.
Moreover.
Compared to the former Zhou Dynasty’s division of the world with many foreign surnames.
Ultimately causing chaos in the land of Shenzhou for eight hundred years.
Now Chunyu Yue changed the wording.
Bestowing titles to sons of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, making them kings, which sounds reasonable.
Furthermore, for a typical emperor, this would definitely be welcome.
After all, if the world descends into chaos again, it would still be from Emperor Qin Shi Huang’s descendants, the world would still belong to Qin.
This moment!
"I second Grand Tutor Chunyu’s proposal."
"Qin has unified the world, it is proper to follow ancestral customs and bestow titles upon kings to guard the world."
"Indeed."
"Emperor Qin Shi Huang bestowing titles upon princes as kings can stabilize the world."
"With princes guarding, and Emperor Qin Shi Huang issuing decrees that foreign surnames cannot be kings, Qin will endure eternally."
"Ministers concur..."
Ministers stepped out one after another, loudly seconding.
With Chunyu Yue already stepping forward, for them to support naturally amplifies the influence.
For many ministers, this was already their last bet.
If it succeeds,
they can follow the prince they support to the vassal state, and also reach high positions.
Compared to staying in Xianyang, they could gain more.
This is what they desire.
For their own interests, they have to fight.
However,
they underestimated Emperor Qin Shi Huang, underestimated his aversion to the feudal vassal system.
Among the Nine Ministers,
not a single person stood up.
This is telling enough.
But it seemed as though they did not see it, as the benefits were too great.
"In history,
if Emperor Qin Shi Huang had made this change, if Fusu had succeeded to the throne, perhaps Qin could have lasted longer."
"But Emperor Qin Shi Huang detested the feudal king system; he wanted imperial authority to control all under heaven, not division."
"And now that I am here, this will not happen." Zhao Feng smiled faintly.
Looking at the ministers in the hall who supported enfeoffment,
Ying Zheng cast a cold glance, then said, "In Qin, on the land of Shenzhou, the enfeoffment system will not be implemented."
"At least not while I am on the throne."
As soon as these words fell,
the faces of those ministers who supported the enfeoffment suddenly changed.
"Does the First Emperor intend to ignore the ancestral system?"
"Enfeoffing the land could stabilize Qin."
"Moreover, not enfeoffing those of foreign surnames as kings, one day Qin could last forever." Chunyu Yue immediately said loudly.
"Zhou enfeoffed the land, and the world was in chaos for eight hundred years, can’t you see that?"
"Perhaps you propose to enfeoff my sons, not those of foreign surnames as kings."
"With the passage of time, who won’t change?"
"Do you want to see my descendants turn against each other?"
"Do you wish to see this land fall into chaos again?"
Ying Zheng said coldly.
A domineering majesty enveloped the entire hall.
Under this pressure,
no one dared to look up directly.
Chunyu Yue’s face also changed, unsure of what to say in rebuttal.
"Draft a decree."
"From today forth,"
"any further discussion of the enfeoffment system will result in immediate execution."
Ying Zheng waved his hand, saying coldly.
He directly drafted the decree, completely cutting off the existence of the enfeoffment of various kings.
Seeing this,
Chunyu Yue completely lost his sharpness and retreated sullenly, those supporting ministers also retreated one by one, not daring to speak.
The decree had already been issued.
How could they dare to speak?
Emperor Qin was domineering.
But he truly would kill.
At this moment!
Ying Zheng turned his head to look at Zhao Feng, who was sitting leisurely at the side, and smiled gently: "Feng’er,"
"You, newly assuming the position of Crown Prince, do you have any political views?"
This change in tone was also enough to show Ying Zheng’s affection for Zhao Feng.
Under the gaze of the entire court,
Zhao Feng slowly stood up and then said: "Replying to Father Emperor,"
Upon hearing the words Father Emperor,
Ying Zheng’s face immediately broke into a smile.
"Hahaha,"
"Feng’er called me Father Emperor."
"That’s wonderful."
"He has completely accepted his identity."
"I will soon draft the regulations for Feng’er to go to the Ancestral Temple to recognize his ancestors and return to the clan."
Ying Zheng laughed heartily inside, very pleased.
"Your son,"
"Indeed has a proposal, concerning the stability of the Qin world, regarding the eternal inheritance of Qin." Zhao Feng said.
"Feng’er, please speak." Ying Zheng said with a smile.
"Unified carriage track widths, unified written script, unified standards, and unified weights and measures." Zhao Feng said loudly.
Hearing these four,
the expressions of all the ministers in the court slightly changed.
They naturally could clearly hear the essence contained within these twelve words.
If this truly happened, the entire Qin would undergo earthshaking changes.
Ying Zheng’s expression slightly changed, then he showed ecstasy.
"Feng’er, continue speaking."
"Say it in detail."
"Father Emperor will definitely support you."
Ying Zheng immediately said, his eyes full of expectation for Zhao Feng.
At this moment,
every minister knew clearly who Zhao Zheng’s son was, who Ying Zheng’s son was.
