For thousands of years, royal families have been born nobles. They have hereditary high-level titles and receive high salaries.
If they don't do anything, they can enjoy various privileges such as high cars, horses, and fine clothes.
Everyone thinks this is natural because they are princes and nobles.
They were born to be aloof.
However, Wei Yang's decree broke all this, and the "Law of Military Merit Conferment" came into being. From then on, the Qin State banned the hereditary title system.
According to Qin law, nobility of the clan will not be ennobled without military merit. Those who have no military merit for two years will be removed from the nobility status.
Once they are expelled, the nobles become common people. All the privileges originally provided by the state will be deprived of them, and the treasury utensils they enjoy will be confiscated.
All subordinate servants belong to the government.
Nobles with existing titles, including their family members, must strictly follow the level of their parents' title in terms of food, clothing, housing, and transportation, and must not deviate in the slightest based on their financial strength or other backgrounds.
Ying Quliang stood in the courtyard with his hands behind his hands, looking at the sky. His heart was filled with the contents of the new law. He supported Wei Yang.
However, this time Wei Yang takes action and directly penetrates into the inner parts of Qin. There will be countless resisters in both the government and the public.
"Those who have merit will be honored!"
"This is to build a chariot, but will Wei Yang succeed?"
At this time, Ying Quliang had no confidence. Ying Qian on the side said in a deep voice: "Your Majesty, don't worry, there is nothing wrong with the army at the moment!"
"If there is chaos, it can be put out quickly!"
"Your Majesty, throughout April, rumors have been flying and resentment has been widespread. I feel like there is someone behind the scenes who is adding fuel to the flames!"
Ying Qian glanced at Ying Quliang, and his tone became cold: "Not long ago, the head of the Mengxi Bai clan came to see me!"
"If this continues, I am worried that the whole country will resist the new law, and the people of the government and the public will form a consensus, and then the Qin State will be in chaos..."
Ying Quliang glanced at Ying Qian, let alone Ying Qian, even he had such worries in his heart, but he knew that at this time he could only trust Wei Yang.
This time's reform will be implemented unswervingly even if the Qin State is in chaos.
If we give up halfway, how can Qin talk about the future?
As soon as he thought of this, Ying Quliang said in a faint tone: "Chief Zuo asked Jingjian to send a message to Gu. If you don't destroy it, you won't establish it. If you break it, you will establish it!"
"Today, the Qin State needs a great victory. I am afraid that Chief Zuo is waiting for an opportunity, and the Qin State will encounter a massacre!"
"Your Majesty, what you mean is that by waiting for Zuo Shuchang to continue, he is allowing the people to cause trouble, and then kills to establish his authority?" Ying Qian frowned slightly, and he did not expect that Wei Yang, who had a kind face, could be so ruthless.
"Um!"
Nodding, Ying Quliang turned towards Ying Qian and said, "There is news from Black Ice Platform that the Imperial Master has left Lu Di and headed for Qi Di."
"I think I will return to Qin soon!"
"Brother, the Confucian Zengzi fell, and during that time, the Imperial Master happened to be in Qufu..."
Hearing this, Ying Qian was startled, then his expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but glance at Ying Quliang.
Qin's national advisor and Qin's Zuo Shuchang had more murderous intentions than he, the general.
"Your Majesty, Confucius traveled to various countries, but he did not enter Qin. He called Qin a dangerous country and called Qin a barbarian."
"In these years, scholars from the Central Plains have not entered the Qin Dynasty, and the attitude of the princes in the world to be inferior to the Qin Dynasty has been so high, and Confucianism has contributed to this."
"I agree with the move of the Imperial Master, but this will make Qin and Confucianism even more incompatible."
Ha ha……
Ying Quliang smiled lightly and said meaningfully: "Zengzi is not an ordinary person, but the imperial master can kill him under the nose of Confucianism and leave easily."
"This shows that the National Master is not simple!"
At this point, Ying Quliang changed the topic and said to Ying Qian, "Brother, let Hei Bingtai and the military scouts keep an eye on the Mo family and the government and the public."
"Especially the Mohist family. Once the Mohist family enters Qin, they will immediately pass the news to the imperial master."
"promise."
…
Huang didn't know the situation in the Qin State. From the moment he stepped out of Qin, his contact with the Qin State was almost cut off.
Because he had an appointment with Ying Quliang.
If there is an accident, someone will be sent to tell him the news, and then he will immediately return to Qin to deal with it.
"Master, Linzi is right in front of us." Xiang Lidu reported to Huang: "The Yang has opened all the joints and arranged the place to live."
"It's at the Jixia Guest House not far from Jixia Academy."
"Enter the city!"
Huang nodded.
This time, he went out with a lot of people, so naturally someone arranged everything for him in advance to make it easier for him.
Of course, this is also to let the people under his command see the world.
"promise."
As the capital of a country, Linzi is still very prosperous, especially because Qi State is close to the sea and is rich in salt and copper. It is also a good place for farming, which makes Qi State extremely prosperous.
Whether a country is strong or not can be seen by looking at its capital.
"Four guests, do you want to be a guest or stay at the hotel?" As soon as they walked into Jixia Guesthouse, the waiter greeted them with a smile.
"Stay in the hotel!"
Xianglidu took out the voucher and handed it to the clerk: "You have booked it in advance and helped us feed the horse with the best feed!"
Seeing the vouchers that Xianglidu took out, the clerk compared them, and then said to Huang and his party: "Four of you, please come in!"
"Man, warm up a pot of fine wine and prepare some dishes to go with the wine!"
"okay!"
The clerk nodded with a smile, gave instructions to his colleagues on the side, and took Huang and others upstairs with a smile.
Jixia Guesthouse, because of the existence of Jixia Academy, is extremely beautifully built. After all, scholars have somewhat high conditions.
Moreover, scholars in this era are not short of money. Even students from poor families or lowly families will have the support of merchants and even nobles behind them.
"Guests, this is your room. The wine and food will be served shortly. Please wait a moment!" The waiter saluted everyone: "I'm downstairs. I'll call you whenever you need anything!"
"good."
Nodding, Huang said to the waiter: "Prepare hot water, I need to wash up!"
"promise."
Nodding in agreement, the waiter smiled and said, "Sir, do you need me to serve you?"
Looking at the waiter, Huang was surprised: "Does your guest house still have this kind of service?"
"If there is a demand, there will be service!" The waiter replied with a smile, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "Our guest house cooperates with the maids in the city. If there is a demand here, they will come to our door with their girls!"
"good!"
Huang's eyes passed over the little Taoist priest and the others, then he smiled and said: "Let them hurry up, not only must they be able to serve others, but they must also be excellent in sex and art."
"Two for each person!"
Having said this, the smile on the man's face became even brighter. According to Huang's needs, this was a big deal.
"Master, I..."
Looking at Xiang Lidu, Huang teased, "Two are not enough?"
"But Old Man Feng is getting older and he can't handle two of them. Let Old Man Feng give you one!"
