General Qin

In the prime minister's mansion, the doctors followed Wang Wan and warmly invited Zhao Tuo into the house.

At this time, although it was not night yet, the candles were already lit in the house.

Inside the delicately shaped bronze lamp, the fire flickered, illuminating the room as brightly as day.

"Sir, please sit down."

Wang Wan was very polite, with a smile on her face all the time.

On the way in, he kept chatting with Zhao Tuo, and Zhou Qingchen and others also told some classic stories from time to time, trying to make the atmosphere lively and cheerful.

Zhao Tuo was smiling. After seeing these doctors, he vaguely guessed what they were going to do.

But now that he has entered the prime minister's mansion, he has nothing to do, he can only be cautious in his words and deeds, and pick a few harmless words to echo the other party from time to time, but he is actually vigilant in his heart.

After a while, everyone was seated.

Wang Wan sat in the main seat, Zhao Tuo sat in the right seat, accompanied by Wang He, and the doctors sat opposite.

The beautiful maids in the mansion, wearing green clothes and white socks, came in with fruits and vegetables, bowed and placed them on the table in front of everyone.

At the same time, wine was still boiling in the room, and there was a faint aroma of wine.

"It's winter, and it's the time when oranges are fragrant. These are the best oranges shipped from Huainan, Chu, with thin skin and sweet juice. Please taste them."

Wang Wan smiled and said, there were a few oranges on the lacquer trays on each case, and the golden color looked very gratifying.

Servant Zhou Qingchen stroked his beard and smiled: "The oranges from Huainan are so good. I heard that the elder Dashu used to follow General Li Xin to conquer Jingchu. The water hit Shouchun, and finally made a great achievement."

"It is said that at that time, the chief minister used Huainan tangerines to fill the stomachs of his soldiers, so that he could make great achievements. The ability of the chief minister is really admirable. In my opinion, all the oranges in Huainan can be called "General Zhao's oranges." Yes, hehe."

After Zhou Qingchen's words fell, another doctor immediately answered with a smile: "Haha, this 'General Zhao Orange' is quite interesting. If you can really get this name, when everyone eats Huainan oranges in the future, they will all think of the old man who conquered Chu. It’s a good story to talk about the world-shattering achievements at that time.”

Several other people echoed the words of the two, and they took this opportunity to taste Huainan oranges, just to praise Zhao Tuo's achievements in defeating Chu in the past, and to draw closer the relationship between the two parties.

Everyone's bragging words came to his ears, Zhao Tuo forced a smile on his face, and clenched his hands on his knees tightly, with veins popping up on the back of his hands.

After defeating Chu, Zhao Tuo ate all kinds of fruit except oranges. As long as I see this thing, I feel my stomach twitching, and I feel quite retched.

Two years later, he almost forgot about this thing, but Wang Wan suddenly got it out, awakening his tragic memories of the past.

These people still take the name of "General Zhao Ju". Isn't this a deliberate attempt to dissuade people?

Fortunately, Wang Wan invited him to the mansion this time, not just for the purpose of inviting him to eat oranges, but for a purpose.

After Zhao Tuo's false response, the doctors stopped laughing and started to get down to business.

Wang Wan winked.

Among the doctors, the long-faced and short-bearded Chun Yuyue spoke up, and he cupped his hands at Zhao Tuo.

"I heard that Da Shu was a young and talented man. When he was young, he had the ambition to become a Marquis. He participated in the battle against Yan and Chu with the Marquis of Wucheng, and even led the army to fight in Qi. He is very familiar with the roads of the four directions."

"It is thousands of miles away to go to Qi and Yan. Even if you ride fast horses, it will take ten months. The conquest of a large army will take a spring and autumn at every turn. I don't know what the elder thinks that going from Xianyang to Qi and Yan , will it not?"

Zhao Tuo narrowed his eyes and looked at Chun Yuyue who was opposite him, and saw that he was sitting upright with his face tense.

Hearing Chunyuyue's accent, Zhao Tuo knew that this guy was from Qi.

He ran from Qidi to Xianyang by himself, all the way, isn't it convenient for him not to know?

Now knowing that the consultant, of course, has a different purpose.

But precisely because Chunyu Yue was from Qi, it was hard for Zhao Tuo to talk nonsense in front of everyone.

After all, he is a dignified and grown-up man, so he still has to face when he speaks.

In Zhao Tuo's head, he recalled the scene that he led his army back and forth between Qi and Qin for thousands of miles, and the roads he traveled were sometimes wide and sometimes narrow, sometimes steep and sometimes dangerous.

Zhao Tuo shook his head, and said truthfully: "It's thousands of miles away, so it's inconvenient to come and go."

Seeing Zhao Tuo shaking his head, the doctors looked at each other with excitement in their eyes.

A Confucian scholar named Qi Diaobi.

"What the Great Master said is true. In the past, the world was chaotic, and the nations fought wars. Today, the gods and martial arts are decisive, and the righteous soldiers are used to punish the riots. Only then can the universe be leveled and the world be settled."

"However, the lands of Qi, Yan, and Chu that we see are thousands of miles away from Guanzhong. If we go up to Xianyang to issue an edict today, galloping on fast horses, and spread the edict to the three places, it will take ten days or even one month. It will take a long time for Qin officials everywhere to know about it.”

"And once there are changes in these three places, it will take a lot of time to spread them to Xianyang. In this way, it will be difficult for the imperial court to issue orders to the localities, and local affairs will be difficult to hear in today's ears. From this point of view , it is very inconvenient."

After finishing the lacquer carving, another doctor named Duan Mugui said again: "Of course, apart from the inconvenient roads in Guanzhong, the folk customs are also very different. Yanzhao is more generous, Qilu is more comfortable, all The people of the land are not familiar with the laws of the Qin Dynasty, and they like to be dissolute and comfortable, so it may be very inconvenient to rule them with the same law today."

"In the past Zhou Wu conquered Zhou, and made his sons and heroes open up land and seal borders. They had real embankments and gullies, real acres and real estates, and ruled according to the customs. Only in this way did the four directions stabilize and the barbarians entered the dynasty. The world lasted for eight hundred years in the Zhou Dynasty."

As these Confucian doctors spoke one after another, the more they talked, the closer they got to the core of the banquet.

Zhao Tuo was sweating on his back.

He already fully understood what these people wanted to say, and also understood the purpose of Wang Wan's invitation to come to the banquet.

Franchise!

Sure enough, after these doctors expressed their opinions.

Chun Yuyue made a conclusion. He fixed his eyes on Zhao Tuo, and said in a passionate voice, "I heard that Yin has a land of 600 years, and Zhou has a kingdom of 800 years. They are all meritorious officials who are descendants of foreign officials, and they are their own assistants."

"Nowadays, the nobles are all over the world, but the children are the vassals of the common people. The number of meritorious officials and ministers is unknown, but they have no titles of land. In this way, if in the future there are ministers of Tian Chang and Liuqing who usurp us, and There is no assistant outside, how can we save each other?"

"Things that do not learn from the ancients but can last for a long time are not heard. Therefore, we want to make suggestions to the present and offer a strategy of enfeoffment. Please entrust the sons and meritorious officials of the present to fill the remote areas of Yan, Liao, Chuyue, Qilu, etc. The land of the four directions, the comfort of the four barbarians, so that Qin Zuo will last forever and be the genus of all ages."

Zuo Prime Minister Wang Wan looked at Zhao Tuo with a smile after the doctors finished speaking.

He opened his mouth and said: "The frontier is far away, and Qin law is difficult to rule. Although the chief minister suggested that he move the clans of the six countries into the Guanzhong, but this would consume a lot of time, effort, and waste of money. Even if the clans of the six countries all enter the Guanzhong In Guanzhong, it is still difficult for the people in the homeland of the princes to be governed by the Qin law, so it is better to divide them into feudalism, and follow the example of the old teacher and father to govern Qi, because of the customs and simple rituals, there is no need for the court to spend a single coin, and you can have peace in all directions."

"Furthermore, the proposal of enfeoffment that we mentioned will not only bring peace to the country and benefit the people, but also allow the princes to enjoy the glory, and the nobles and honorable ministers can also be granted the title of a foot of land, and pass on the land to future generations with their achievements. Isn't it beautiful?"

After Wang Wan finished speaking, she added another sentence, saying: "We talked with the generals of the Xin family, the Yang family, and Qiang Yougeng and other meritorious ministers, and everyone praised them. I don't know what the elders think of this discussion?"

At this point, Wang Wan and the doctors are already at a loss.

They tempted Zhao Tuo with the benefits of enfeoffing the land, hoping to get Zhao Tuo to agree with their proposal, and together propose a policy of enfeoffing to the current emperor.

Zhao Tuo, as the great hero of Qin's unification of the world this time, once Qin Shihuang really implements the enfeoffment system, apart from the princes, if he wants to divide the meritorious officials, Zhao Tuo will naturally be indispensable.

Feudal soil to build a country, said to be lonely and widowed, and passed on the community to future generations!

Don't you, Zhao Tuo, not be moved?

Wang Wan's eyes were piercing. He believed that no one could resist the temptation to become the king of a country.

Zhao Tuo's forehead was sweating and his eyes were red.

He raised his head and looked at Wang Wan on the main seat.

What do I think?

old man!

Naigong can't wait to tear your mouth off!
