Hu Hai's face was extremely ugly. He struck the case again angrily and shouted: "Ji Heng, stop talking nonsense here."
"How could the First Emperor sit back and watch the world become chaotic?"
"With the great talent and great strategy of the First Emperor, he had already made all the arrangements. It would not be like what you said."
"You are just alarmist!"
"Don't think I don't know what you're thinking."
"You are a remnant of the Yan Kingdom and a dying person. How can you have a good impression of the Great Qin?"
"For the destruction of the Yan Kingdom, you must have a grudge against the Qin Dynasty. You have been taking the opportunity to slander the Qin Dynasty, slander the Qin government, and slander the First Emperor."
"I have long seen your wolfish ambition."
"You are determined to destroy Qin!"
"His heart must be punished!"
Hu Hai was furious.
These words were almost shouted.
Ji Heng's expression remained as usual, and he didn't take Hu Hai's roar to heart at all.
He chewed a few bites of the mutton casually. It tasted very rancid. Although a lot of spices were added to it, it could only cover up part of the smell.
After swallowing all the mutton on the copper plate, he picked up the clay pot on the copper plate, poured the mutton bone soup inside into the rice in front of him, then took out two homemade wooden sticks from his sleeves and inserted them into the bowl. Stir briefly.
Ji Heng said while eating: "With thousands of people and thousands of faces, even Shang Yang, who understands human nature well, will still be defeated by his own system, not to mention that the Qin Dynasty currently has more than 20 million people?"
"Even if the First Emperor's hands and eyes can reach the sky, can he make more than 20 million people's hearts go to one place? Have no other thoughts?"
"Even if the First Emperor wants it, do the nobles of the six countries want it?"
"Do you want to go to Guizhou in the six places?"
"You come from a noble family, how do you know the sufferings of the people?"
"The Great Qin Dynasty built the Great Wall, built roads, dug rivers and rivers to defend, expanded the territory, made every word, every weight and measure, made the head of Guizhou prosperous, built Lishan Mountain, and built palaces in various places. These all depended on people."
"There are only about 10,000 young people in the world. With this series of big projects and policies, do you know how much food will be spent? How many people will be expropriated?"
“And it’s all concentrated within a few years.”
"Man is not an ox or a horse."
"Even cows and horses have time to nap, but people have no time to rest."
"Why is it that the world is not filled with complaints about such cruelty, why is it not filled with rage, and why is it not filled with rage?"
"That's why."
"You heard a lot of curses against Qin in prison."
"I remember a Confucian scholar said this: The Qin Dynasty killed people without calculation, with mountains of bones, tyranny and harsh punishments, ocher (zhe) clothes blocked the roads, blocked the mouths of the world, blocked the road to literature, burned the classics of three generations, and dug up the foundation of the sages. , Build the Great Wall to cut off the dragon veins of China, build roads and destroy endless fertile fields for people to live in. Such a country with no rules and a king with no rules, even if it perishes ten times, it will not be enough to quell the resentment of the world."
"How can it be natural if Emperor Qin does not die?!"
"Although what this Confucian scholar said is somewhat biased, it is not a true portrayal of the world."
Hu Hai suddenly changed his color. He stood up angrily, walked up to Ji Heng, veins popped up on his face, and shouted angrily: "This is complete nonsense."
"What do those Confucian scholars know?"
"What do they know about the world?"
"If the First Emperor had not shown mercy, these Confucian scholars would have died long ago."
"Also, since you hate the First Emperor so much, why did you still speak for the First Emperor in the first place?"
"I finally understood it today. You are just using me and taking advantage of my status to cheat you out of food and drink. You are just like those village women and Confucian scholars, who hate Qin and hate Qin. There is no difference between you." , but you are more scheming than them, pretending to be a saint and deceiving me."
"It's in vain that I trust you so much and eat and drink with you, but you treat me like a fool!"
Ji Heng remained silent and did not say a word.
After finishing the japonica rice in the bowl, he calmly said: "Shuzi?"
"You think too highly of yourself."
"You don't want me to bother with that."
"I've said it from the beginning, I'm just a guy who trades stories for drinks."
"One or two stories and one or two drinks."
"It's up to me to decide what the story is about."
"The reason why you don't like this is because the truth always hurts the most."
"I admit that the First Emperor has many great achievements."
"The Qin Dynasty unified the world, ended hundreds of years of war, stopped the wars in the world, sent out troops one after another, wiped out border troubles, and allowed the Chinese ethnic group to survive forever. I also admit that replacing the feudal system with the county system can make the Chinese ethnic group no longer divided. , and at the beginning of the founding of the Qin Dynasty, the slaves in the world were restored to their rightful bodies, and then they were able to own real fields. Many of the actions made by the First Emperor were actually right."
"It is indeed beneficial to the world."
"But too much is not enough."
"Gong is merit, fault is fault."
"The First Emperor is a human being, and everyone makes mistakes."
"The same goes for the First Emperor."
"But do you really think that the First Emperor doesn't know the current situation in the world?"
Hear the words.
Hu Hai was stunned.
He stared at Ji Heng suspiciously, his eyes full of doubts.
a long time.
He disdainfully said:
"The First Emperor knows everything about the world."
"He is the First Emperor!"
"And since the First Emperor knows the situation in the world, how can he really sit back and do nothing?"
"How could you, a criminal, know the First Emperor's deep thoughts?"
"The current situation in the Qin Dynasty must have been expected by the First Emperor."
"It was then, it is now."
"More so in the future!"
Ji Heng chuckled, whether it was ridicule or speechless. He raised his head, looked at the angry Hu Hai, shook his head and said: "You are partly right, but not completely right. The development of the world is indeed within the expectations of the First Emperor. In the midst of this, even all sentient beings are suffering, and the people are complaining, it is all intentional by the First Emperor."
"The First Emperor is now a tyrant."
"The First Emperor knew one thing very clearly. If the strategy of unification were to be carried out normally, it would not be possible without several generations."
"But the First Emperor didn't trust anyone else."
"He only believed in himself."
"He deliberately uses various large-scale projects to exhaust the people in order to achieve the people's livelihood."
"The purpose is to complete the victory in one battle."
"Today's First Emperor can be said to be crazy. He doesn't care about the life and death of the lower class at all. Even if he knows that if these policies are implemented, they will arouse public resentment, cause countless people to curse, and even force countless people to die or be injured. But He just doesn't care."
"He just wants these policies to be pushed through."
"It may be hard for you to understand."
"I'll give you an example of opening a window."
"Chinese people always like to compromise. If you think the house is too dark and you need to open a window, if you just say that, everyone will definitely not agree. But if you advocate removing the roof and your attitude is extremely strong, they will They will come to reconcile and be willing to open the window.”
"And now the First Emperor is the one tearing down the roof."
"That's why I said before that the First Emperor was destined to fail."
“But it’s destined to succeed.”
"The purpose of the First Emperor was not to tear down the roof, but to get people to agree to open the windows."
"All the radical measures taken by the First Emperor at present are to force all the people to accept the will of unification in a cruel and crazy way."
"When everyone in the world can't bear it anymore, the successors of the First Emperor will be reconciled. By then, there is no need to do much. As long as they don't continue to be so crazy and cruel, all the people will readily agree to open the window."
"And the foundation of great unification has been completely laid!"
