That night it was reported that Qianlong and other old nobles had rebelled, intending to overthrow the new law.
Tingwei led his men to kill the chiefs of the Qianlong, Meng and Xiqi tribes, as well as the private soldiers of their families. Three to five thousand people were wiped out overnight. When the news was announced the next day, all All the ministers were afraid of Ying Si. They originally thought that Ying Si was easy to bully when he first came to power, but they did not expect that Ying Si would be so decisive.
Shang Yang died and his clan was wiped out. All the old nobles in Qianlong were killed. Two of the three Bai clans in Mengxi County were directly maimed. Although the three clans still existed, everyone could see that only the Bai clan was left among the three clans. A family.
This method allowed Ying Si to obtain all the rights left by his father in the shortest possible time, and no one was thinking of taking away any rights from him.
Then Ying Si came to the main world, and when he arrived, he saw the kings of the past dynasties and a large number of people from hundreds of families.
Except for his grandfather and his father, none of these people had any doubts about whether Shang Yang should be killed.
Especially for people from hundreds of families, Mencius, a big critic, directly told others that Lord Shang was seeking benevolence and gaining benevolence.
Just when everyone was wondering how Mencius could say nice things, Mencius started to complain.
Why is Qin's law bad? It ignores ethics and morals, and does not know how to hide relatives from each other. What is the reason why Qin's law is more complex than autumn tea, and the net is denser than condensed fat. In short, he scolded Qin's law all over, but he had nothing bad to say about Shang Yang. Yes, because everyone who proves his own path by himself is worthy of respect. You can refute him or deny him. After all, different paths do not lead to the same conspiracy.
But you must respect him, because no matter what, the other person has put his own path into practice, and this is already better than 99% of the mediocre people in the world.
Zhuo Qun looked at the noisy crowd and prepared to open another space-time gate without saying anything.
In the fourth year of King Wu of Qin, the Qin army captured the isolated city of Yiyang and beheaded 60,000 people. The Qin army took advantage of the victory and crossed the Yellow River, captured Wu Sui and built the city. King Han Xiang was forced to send Gong Zhongtu to Qin to apologize and negotiate peace with Qin.
All of this was a test made by King Wu of Qin Ying Dang in order to destroy the Zhou royal family. Attacking Yiyang and conquering Sanchuan were the key to Qin's advancement into the Central Plains and its imperial career.
Now that Yiyang has fallen, only the land of Sanchuan is left, and the land of Sanchuan is Luoyang, the capital of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty.
This year, Ying Dang attacked Yiyang and stepped up his march eastward. In order to test the Zhou royal family, Ying Dang traveled east to Luoyang to meet the emperor.
Seeing the emperor, Ying Dang directly asked about the importance of Jiuding.
The emperor said that he did not know the importance of Jiuding.
Ying Dang said that he would lift the cauldron to test its weight.
The emperor also said that as heavy as the country is, the Jiuding is also heavy.
The two of them were talking about the importance of the tripod, but in fact they were talking about the world's problems.
King Qin Wu was not the first person to aspire to the throne.
According to legend, the Nine Tripods were made by Dayu using copper tribute from the Nine Shepherds in the World, symbolizing the Nine Provinces.
It is said that during the Xia, Shang, and Zhou dynasties, there were strict regulations on the tripods used to express the status of the royal family and nobility: scholars used one or three tripods, officials used five tripods, princes used seven tripods, and only the emperor used nine tripods. When offering sacrifices to the ancestors of heaven and earth, the Nine Cauldron Ceremony is performed. Therefore, Jiuding naturally became a symbol of the country's political power, and then became a national treasure.
The importance of seeking the throne means seizing the world.
The last person to aspire to the title was King Zhuang of Chu during the Spring and Autumn Period.
This incident is recorded in Zuo Zhuan. During the Spring and Autumn Period, Chuzhuang King Chen Bing went to Luoshui to demonstrate against the Zhou Dynasty. Zhou sent an envoy to express his condolences, and King Zhuang of Chu asked about the size and importance of the tripod. The envoy from the Zhou royal family replied that virtue is not in the tripod. In the past, there was virtue in the Xia Dynasty. There were pictures from far away, tributes of gold and nine animals, and casting of tripods as objects. How serious it is cannot be asked.
But this time when King Wu aspired to the throne, Emperor Zhou directly said that as much as the mountains and rivers weighed, so did the Nine Cauldrons.
It is also telling Ying Dang that this world is not something you, the Qin State, can touch.
And Ying Dang came with a large army. He didn't care about what Emperor Zhou said. Instead, he directly ordered people to move the nine tripods out of the Ancestral Temple and place them outside. He pointed at one of the tripods and asked the warriors around him to do so. Everyone has tried to lift the cauldron, but no one can lift it.
Emperor Zhou couldn't help but smile. It was impossible for anyone to lift the Nine Cauldrons. Just like in this world, even if the royal family declines, no one can replace it. The savages in the western border also want to aspire to the throne. They really don't know whether to live or die.
Finally, Meng Shuo, Ying Dang's favorite strongman, tried it, but he could only make the tripod move once, and then nothing happened.
Meng said that he could only plead guilty and retire.
Ying Dang himself was also a man of great strength. When he saw that all the strong men could not lift the Jiuding, he came to the side of the Jiuding that had been tried before.
He said he wanted to lift the cauldron, but Emperor Zhou felt something was wrong at this time.
At this time, he should have reached out and grabbed the rope tied to Jiuding. He looked at Emperor Zhou and said, this is the tripod of Yongzhou and the tripod of Qin. I should take this tripod back to Xianyang.
These words were like a thunder exploding directly in Zhou Tianzi's mind.
That is the Yongzhou Ding. The Qin State occupies the land of Yongzhou. This is really going to break the earth and claim the king. No matter who said he was the king before, it didn't count because they didn't have the Jiuding that symbolized the king's power. But now Ying Dang is coming to take Jiuding.
This frightened Emperor Zhou.
He immediately shouted loudly: "The King of Qin can take the Nine Tripods if he wants, but only the Ying clan is the king, and he is qualified to lift the Tripod, and only by walking with the tripod can he be qualified to take the Nine Tripods. How can he do it if he does not have the ability to bear the weight of the world?" king?"
Ying Dang looked at him and laughed. He knew that Emperor Zhou was afraid. He looked at Emperor Zhou and said, "If I take the tripod with me, this Yongzhou tripod will belong to my Qin country. I am serious about this!"
"Seriously, but only the leader of the Ying clan is qualified to lift the cauldron, no one else can interfere!"
After hearing this, Ren Bi, the strong man next to Ying Dang, immediately advised him, thinking that this matter was extremely risky and that the king should not take risks himself.
But Ying Dang knew that only by obtaining the Yongzhou Cauldron could his Great Qin take the next step, the step to heaven.
So he walked up without hesitation, paying no heed to the advice of the ministers around him. He wanted to lift the cauldron today, and even if he died, he would lift the cauldron. This was not a problem of the cauldron, but a problem of his great Qin conquering the world.
Besides, even if he dies, his brothers will still be there, and there are people among them who can carry Da Qin, so he is not afraid of death.
I saw Ying Dang put his arms into the rope, used all his strength, held his breath, and shouted: "Get up!" Sure enough, he lifted the tripod half a foot off the ground. But when he was about to take a step, his strength suddenly gave out and the tripod fell. At this time, Ying Dang should have been crushed by the falling tripod and broke his leg. He fainted from the pain and died that night.
But at this time, three people suddenly appeared next to Ying Dang. They stretched out their hands to support Ding.
