Ji Heng drank all the wine in the flask and continued: "To correct an excess, you must correct it."
"The achievements made by the First Emperor are indeed great."
"But he was destined to fail."
"Everyone has a limit to what he can bear."
"In today's Great Qin, various policies are implemented too hastily, too fiercely, and too fiercely. As the saying goes, too much is too little. Once it goes too far and exceeds the limit of human endurance, it will inevitably lead to rebellion in the world. Now the world is in a state of uproar. , maybe it won’t take too long, and Great Qin will be overthrown by this.”
"The Qin Dynasty won the world by force."
"Once the deterrence of force is no longer there, the world will be lost."
Hear the words.
Hu Hai showed displeasure and said dissatisfiedly: "Ji Heng, what are you talking about?"
"The policy of great unification was promoted by the First Emperor. The First Emperor had the virtues of the Three Emperors and the merits of the Five Emperors. How could he really go too far?"
"Even if it's really overkill, it must be within the tolerance of Da Qin."
"You can rest assured of this."
Ji Heng put the wine bottle on the table, and because he was lost in thought for a while, he didn't leave in a hurry.
He said calmly: "Do you have confidence in the First Emperor?"
"That's natural." Hu Hai's eyes were firm and showed no intention of evading.
Ji Heng chuckled, shook his head and said, "I'm afraid I'll disappoint you, but I don't think so."
"I have said before, the First Emperor is a person."
"He can indeed do some deeds that are almost heavenly and human, and he can indeed influence future generations for thousands of years."
"But he is only one person after all."
"There is a time when manpower will be exhausted."
"The same goes for the First Emperor!"
"Ji Heng, don't be too presumptuous!" Hu Hai slapped the table and glared.
He was beyond anger.
He would not allow anyone to question the First Emperor.
Ji Heng's face remained as usual, unmoved at all, and said indifferently: "No matter how much you worship the First Emperor, you must admit that the First Emperor is a human being."
"He is not a god!"
"He cannot control the world in every detail."
"He also has no way to make the 'grand unification' policy be implemented as he wishes."
"The most difficult thing to control in the world is the human heart!"
"The Book of Shang Jun written by Shang Yang targets human nature, but it can only target it and cannot really control it."
"I admit that the First Emperor is a man of power."
"He returned to the Qin Dynasty as a hostage, and without any foundation, he used his innate power and tactics to defeat Lao Ai and Cheng Xi, and then regained the power stolen by Lu Buwei and the Queen Mother Huayang, achieving true monopoly of power, and then We will reassess the situation and take advantage of the fact that all the princes in the world are exhausted, so as to achieve the goal of swallowing up the world."
"The First Emperor's superb skills, courage, and courage are indeed amazing."
"But conquering the world is different from ruling the world."
"When conquering the world, the world is united, but governing the world is not necessarily the case."
"Han Feizi once said: 'If the wife is close to the son but cannot be trusted, then the rest cannot be trusted.'"
"In today's world, there is no one trustworthy for the First Emperor."
"Why?"
"Because people's hearts are unpredictable."
“Everything in the world is about profit coming and going.”
"How good were Prince Dan and the First Emperor of Yan at the beginning? In the end, they turned against each other due to their respective interests."
"The principle is the same."
"How many people do you think will support the First Emperor today?"
"When there was a discussion about enfeoffing counties and counties, most officials in the court supported the enfeoffment, but the First Emperor chose counties."
"Does this count as standing on the opposite side of the courtiers?"
"China has been in turmoil for more than five hundred years, and the world is exhausted. But what did the First Emperor do? He carried out various projects, requisitioned Guizhou and punished people without mercy, which aroused complaints all over the world. Even the people in Guanzhong complained deeply, not to mention the people in Guandong. ?”
"Does this count as standing against the people?"
"Last year's book burning and the massacre a few days later caused the world's scholars to distance themselves from the imperial court."
"Does this count as standing on the opposite side of the scholars?"
"There are also nobles from the six countries, the Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties, who treated them favorably, but how did Qin do it?"
"There are countless others like this."
"What Qin did was unpopular to begin with, but in such a brutal way, how could it really be what the First Emperor expected?"
"Looking at your identity, you should be a descendant of a high nobility, or even someone with a high rank in your family. You can check in the future. Over the years, the imperial court has recruited officials. How many officials have refused to accept them, and how many officials have made various prevarications. Stick to your job and don't want to be 'promoted'."
"Not only are the people of Great Qin now in dire straits, but even the officials have turned against the court."
"With this level of corruption, do you really think that the First Emperor can control the world like an arm and a finger? Can he make all the people submissive and the world obey him with just one decree?"
"The world of Da Qin has long been on the verge of collapse."
"It's just that the Qin Dynasty's military force is still there, and the prestige of the First Emperor is still there, so it can suppress the world."
"But it won't last long after all."
"One day, Qin will lose its deer, and the whole world will chase it away."
"One man is in trouble and seven temples are destroyed."
Ji Heng's voice was not loud, but when it fell into Hu Hai Fusu's ears, it made people shiver.
Ji Heng picked up the wine bottle on the table again and tried to pour out a few drops of wine. Unfortunately, the drink was too clean. After shaking it for a long time, not a drop fell.
He sighed softly, feeling quite uninterested.
For the First Emperor.
Ji Heng still respected him very much.
The First Emperor was a being who made great contributions to China.
Although he likes to say that "Fen Sixth Life is the Last Lieutenant", if you really look at history carefully, you will find that this is not the case at all.
The unification of Da Qin was not inevitable.
When the First Emperor came to power, Zhao State almost wanted to dominate the world.
Although later generations said that after the Battle of Changping, Zhao State failed to recover, this was not the case.
In the hands of King Zhao Daoxiang, the State of Zhao had achieved a renaissance. It conquered the south and the north, attacked the city and captured the pond. In the confrontation with the Qin army, he beheaded Meng Tian's eldest father, Meng Ao, and killed 30,000 Qin soldiers. Not only did he avenge his previous humiliation, he also restored military prestige.
At that time, Zhao had begun to possess the power to dominate the world.
At the same time, the Wei State was assisted by Lord Xinling, and its power was greatly improved.
Chu State has been calling for a joint attack on Qin.
It was under the harsh environment that Zhao Ji wanted to run rampant in the Central Plains, Wei Guan led all directions, and Chu Zong became the emperor, that Ying Zheng genius seized the almost only good opportunity of the discord between the six countries and the sudden deaths of powerful monarchs in each country, and used The huge spy network and strong will penetrated the Zhao State in one fell swoop, and finally defeated the Chu State in a determined battle.
Only then did he finally achieve the goal of swallowing up the world.
King Qin swept Liuhe.
Not sweeping, but swallowing.
It can only be swallowed by whales.
Qin cannot afford to be slow.
Once you slow down, you may lose this fleeting opportunity.
Good opportunities are rare, and a monarch who can seize them all is even rarer.
But Ying Zheng did it!
Even if King Zhao Mouxiang had not died early, and Zhao had not suffered a rare earthquake at the same time, Lord Xinling would have lived a few more years, and Chu's joint vertical attack on Qin could have succeeded once. It would have been almost impossible for Qin to conquer the world, and the Warring States Period was divided. The situation will continue to exist.
But Ying Zheng seized the rare window of opportunity in the world and used his strong will to wipe out the six countries and realize the unification of the world.
Who can not be impressed by such achievements?
