At this point, Ying Zheng's voice gradually fell silent, and after a moment he said with a sigh: "Actually, I don't know the problems that the empire will face after these women become queens."
"But actually I have no other choice."
"Fusu is not me. He must grasp some of the aristocratic forces in Great Qin so that he can carry out some reforms smoothly."
He looked at Chen Ke: "I know that you still have thousands of ideas in your heart that you want to realize, but you have never been able to execute them."
"Perhaps when Fusu ascends the throne, you will continue to carry out drastic reforms."
Chen Ke shook his head slightly and looked at the First Emperor.
In fact, he knew that the First Emperor had always been curious and did not believe that he had read all the things "from books".
It's just that the First Emperor couldn't tell where his things came from.
Maybe Ying Zheng already regarded him as a god.
This is a good thing and a bad thing for Chen Ke.
He just smiled and said: "Your Majesty, you are worrying too much. In fact, I am not that smart or a great person."
"All I can do is spread some of my stolen wisdom, put the seeds of civilization and fire into Da Qin, and then watch the seeds rise little by little and turn into blazing flames."
"The flame will eventually become the new sun, shining brightly on the Qin Dynasty."
"Therefore, I have actually done everything I can do."
"There's not much left."
Chen Ke's voice was serious and serious at the same time.
What he said was also true.
Chen Ke didn't realize how smart and powerful a person he was. He was able to complete some of the current reforms and new things, all by relying on the miscellaneous books he read in his previous life and the memories that gradually became clearer after coming to this life.
He does not intend to bring everything to Da Qin by himself like the characters in the storybook.
Steam engines, internal combustion engines, generators, airplanes, cannons, aircraft carriers, and spacecraft.
New political system, new national concept, new economic system, new technology, new medical knowledge, robotic arms, etc.
Everyone feels that the more advanced technology is, the more vitality it can bring to backward people, but Chen Ke does not feel that this is the case.
This is just like a person who is usually very weak. If you just pour a large amount of tonic, maybe the patient will suddenly become very energetic when he just pours it in, and he can even hit ten with one punch.
But what about a year later?
Two years have passed?
The patient may become sickly again, even sicker than before.
Why?
Because "the weak cannot be replenished".
Today's Great Qin, or Huaxia, is the same. It instills a lot of advanced things in a backward political system, backward productivity, backward culture and society, and backward environment.
Da Qin will not be able to digest it all.
not to mention--
If Chen Ke was allowed to create all advanced culture by himself, what would he become? What will Great Qin become?
Perhaps, Great Qin will immediately become the most advanced country in the world, and even be the most powerful for thousands of years. But after Chen Ke leaves, will Great Qin have the ability to innovate?
Can you move on?
They will all turn into rotten giant babies just waiting to be fed.
Chen Ke did not want such a Great Qin, and neither did the First Emperor.
Therefore, Chen Ke’s initial plan was to start with culture, systems, and concepts to change the culture of this era and come up with some of the most basic things and concepts in advance; to change the systems of this era and allow some advanced systems to emerge that can supplement leftist culture. and changes in concepts; changing the concepts of this era, so that this ancient nation no longer thinks that "technology" is an inferior thing.
When there is endless curiosity for knowledge, when technology, craftsmanship, etc. are no longer considered to be third-rate things.
Da Qin will become a machine that never stops and always innovates. It will continue to produce new things and become even faster.
The development of civilization is exactly like this.
Just like a train needs power, the development of the times needs such a "core".
After doing this, Chen Ke had no intention of doing anything else.
Ying Zheng may have felt the meaning of Chen Ke's words, but he just smiled indifferently: "No matter how much or not, that will be Fusu's business in the future."
"What I can do now is to pacify the world and capture the Huns, the Western Regions, and Baiyue."
"After the world is stabilized, it may be time for me to truly retreat behind the scenes."
This is the first time Ying Zheng has spoken out his plans.
The emperor who was so angry back then has become calm now. Perhaps all the excitement will eventually return to normal.
Chen Ke smiled and said: "I wonder if I will have the honor to retire with His Majesty?"
Ying Zheng sneered after hearing this: "You want to be lazy?"
"I don't agree."
He said softly: "Chen Ke, just for my sake, please serve Da Qin for a while."
"At least wait until Fusu has secured his position and matured before leaving."
Chen Ke closed his eyes and said softly and seriously: "Your Majesty, don't worry, how could I leave Da Qin?"
He turned his head and looked at the storm outside the hall that had started at some point: "I will watch His Highness Fusu look forward to the world."
"This is where I live after all."
At this point, there is actually nothing more to say.
Ying Zheng stood up and asked with a smile: "But speaking of this, Fusu already has a wife. Are you not ready to add a few more people to your side?"
He looked at Chen Ke with concern: "Boy, it will be winter again soon, and you will be twenty-eight soon."
"In the past three years, many people's sons are already running around the streets, and some are even about to become grandfathers."
"There's no one around you yet."
"How do you want me to reassure you?"
At this time, Ying Zheng was no longer an emperor, but an elder of Chen Ke, who was just expressing his inner worries.
Chen Ke's expression remained calm. He just said: "Your Majesty, there is no so-called love in my heart. If I forcefully find a woman to marry, it will only break another person's heart."
"Why need one more sad person?"
"What's more, with His Majesty and the servants in the palace here, my daily life is quite good, and there is no need for another person to exist."
Ying Zheng couldn't hold it back and said again: "What about your descendants?"
"Are you planning to cut off your incense? Are you going to have no inheritance in future generations?"
Chen Ke just stood there, silently putting his hands in his sleeves: "Why is there any so-called inheritance, why is there so-called incense?"
"I'm just one person, so that's good."
"My students are my inheritance, and my disciples are my incense."
“The world is so big, where can’t we find a place to stay?”
Ying Zheng shook his head and said nothing more. In the final analysis, he could not and would not force Chen Ke to marry a wife. After all, this was Chen Ke's own business.
It's just that as an elder, I can't help but say a few words.
He waved his hand: "Okay, I can't help you, just feel happy."
"Just remember, don't lose the person in front of you."
With that said, Ying Zheng walked out, and Chen Ke followed his pace and slowly walked towards the main hall outside. The surrounding environment seemed very ordinary. Ying Zheng was not a person who liked luxury very much.
In the original trajectory, he also built the Afang Palace. However, in the current historical trajectory, Ying Zheng did not even build the Afang Palace.
............
Land of Baiyue, East Vietnam
The two armies led by Zhang Han and Zhao Tuo have gone deep into the hinterland. They are not moving fast because they have many weapons.
Many East Vietnamese soldiers had been killed on the road before. The ground was covered with corpses, and the blood almost dyed the entire jungle red.
Whenever a battle ended, they would follow the instructions of the imperial physician who followed the army and burn the corpses cleanly. According to the imperial physician's order, it was to prevent a major epidemic.
"Gululu——"
The sound of chariots echoed in the silent jungle, and the army headed towards the territory of Dongyue.
The further we walked into the forest, the quieter it became.
I don’t know how long the army had been walking, but their eyes suddenly opened up.
Although Dongyue lives in the jungle, the place where they live is not actually a jungle. After all, they are not primitive people.
The East Vietnam Army was already waiting for them here.
In fact, they are not considered barbarians. After all, Dongyue is actually part of the territory of the former Yue Kingdom. The current king of Dongyue was once a descendant of the Si surname and a descendant of Gou Jian.
In the past, when Zheng Taidong was preparing to rebel and occupy Kuaiji County, he had made a plan to cooperate with the King of Dongyue to completely occupy this place and then regain the former Yue Kingdom.
It's just that Zheng Taidong's plan was to do this after completing the occupation of "Kuiji County", so he never contacted the King of Dongyue, and the King of Dongyue didn't know about it.
I don't know how long it took, but many soldiers of the Qin Army suddenly found their eyes lit up, and they walked out of the vast jungle.
The soldiers gathered together, Zhang Han looked at the vast flat land in front of him, with a slightly serious look on his face.
He felt that the place was so flat, and with the endless plains, it didn't look like he would be able to ambush, but it was just right for a charge.
If there are troops sitting here waiting for work, they will face huge problems.
But having said that, Zhang Han is not afraid of such a thing happening.
because--
There's really nothing to be afraid of.
Their soldiers will tire, but the artillery behind them will not.
So he ordered the entire army to stay where they were and rest for an hour before continuing to advance.
They will fight to the Dongyue King City within two months before winter comes!
They want to win the Battle of East Vietnam for His Majesty the First Emperor of Qin before winter comes!
They want to let the leaders and people of Kuaiji County get enough firewood and enjoy a peaceful life before winter.
The front is the enemy and they cannot rest.
.........
Kuaiji County
Yang Tianyi counted the time in his hands while thinking about the war and this winter in his heart.
As a disciple of Chen Ke, he certainly knew that in a certain period of time in the future, things like firewood might gradually withdraw from the sight of the upper class nobles and be replaced by something called "coal".
This kind of thing can also burn and generate heat, and can also make people feel warm. It is simpler and more convenient than firewood.
But that kind of thing cannot be supplied to everyone on a large scale in a short period of time. Except for the nobles, it is extremely difficult for ordinary Guizhou heads to use coal.
but--
No matter how difficult it is, most people will be able to afford coal within five or six years.
So he needs to plan properly for cutting wood and coal.
Strive to allow the people, the head of Guizhou, and the nobles to transition smoothly.
Thinking of this, Yang Tianyi sighed slightly, then looked at the person next to him and said, "What news came from the front?"
What I mentioned earlier was the front line of the war with East Vietnam.
The person next to him shook his head slightly, with a cautious look on his face: "Qi County Sheriff, no news has been received."
Yang Tianyi frowned slightly, because logically speaking, there should have been news by now.
How is this going?
He was a little confused, but he still stabilized his mind and said: "Go to Jun Cheng and the others and tell them that I have something important to do."
The clerk nodded immediately and walked outside.
Kuaiji County is also a typical example of learning from Xianyang and Penglaizhou. Because Kuaiji has a vast territory, they have directly built an "administrative district" and established a separate "county government office".
The county magistrate, county magistrate, county magistrate's office clerk, etc. all work here.
Next to it are the newly established Municipal Property Department, Manufacturing Department and other new institutions, as well as places reserved for institutions that may appear in the future.
Because this is not the most central place in the city, there is no need to worry about setting up.
.........
Xianyang University
In accordance with the requirements of the imperial court, the revision of books was started at Xianyang University.
Those who came were not only people from Xianyang University, but also doctors from Penglai University and Zhongzhou University.
Since the reform of Baijia Palace was announced some time ago and it was split into four parts, three universities and three research institutes have begun frantically recruiting great talents.
The names of Xianyang University and Xianyang Research Institute are "the location of Kyoto and the center of the world"; the names of Zhongshu University and Zhongshu Research Institute are "Hometown of the Prime Minister", "Source of Culture" and "Heart of Civilization"; Penglai University , the name given by Penglai Research Institute is "coastal bank" and "emerging place".
In addition to some PhDs who were transferred from Xianyang University, Zhongzhou University and Penglai University also recruited some great talents.
Because these people feel that there may not be a place for them in Xianyang City.
But new universities must have it.
Among them are some great talents who have not been drafted out in the past and have not come out.
At this time in Xianyang University, the person who was arguing with Yan Kong, or not arguing, but unilaterally killing him, was a representative of this new talent.
His seniority was too high, and no one present except Li Si dared to challenge him.
Sometimes age itself is an advantage.
Lin Xiangru's son, Zhuangzi's direct disciple, Laozi's successor, the highest surviving representative of Laozi's theory and Taoism, Lin Jing, thought so when he pointed at Yan Kong.
