A conversation allowed the three of them to understand more or less what each other was thinking.
It can be regarded as the bottom line.
In addition to the demise of Qi, there is another imminent matter.
"Your Majesty, Young Master, the Qi Kingdom has been destroyed and the Central Plains has been unified. In order to ensure the stability of the Qin Dynasty, it is imperative to reward him!"
Li Si looked at Qin Wangzheng with a solemn expression and said: "Before awarding the reward, the king's matter must be resolved!"
"Now there are several kings in Xianyang, and there is still King Qi on the way!"
"If this matter is not resolved, it will be difficult to implement the reward!"
As soon as these words came out, everything in Zhangtai Palace was quiet. Both Qin Wangzheng and Zhao Shu were silent, especially Zhao Shu.
He was the initiator of this incident.
After all, there were no kings in Da Qin before. It was because of the lands of Zhuyue that Da Qin had kings.
"Gongzi Shu, how should we resolve this matter?"
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng also looked at Zhao Shu.
He knew in his heart that Zhao Shu was not only the instigator of Wang Jue.
He is also the person most qualified to be crowned king among the civil and military officials in the Qin Dynasty.
He wanted to clarify Zhao Shu's thoughts.
After hearing this, Zhao Shu pondered for a long time, and then said to Qin Wangzheng and Li Si: "Your Majesty, Teacher, the current kings of Great Qin only exist in name only!"
"They only have one generation of kings!"
"Next, Great Qin will grant rewards, not kings!"
"There is a king in Xianyang now!"
"However, they are all surrendered kings. They have no fiefdoms and no power. But if they are rewarded by the civil and military forces of the Qin Dynasty, once they have kings and titles, they will be no different from the princes!"
Having said this, Zhao Shi said in a solemn tone: "Your Majesty, the generals in the army will have an exchange in advance to let them clarify some of the court's bottom lines!"
"Before returning to Xianyang, the superior general asked the junior general, and the junior general also mentioned it to the senior general!"
"With the junior general and the senior general taking the lead, there shouldn't be much opposition if I want to join the army!"
As soon as these words came out, Qin Wangzheng and Li Si were very happy.
They all know that the Qin Dynasty built its country with force, and the generals among the elite soldiers of the Qin Dynasty are the key to this reward.
As long as Wang Jian and Zhao Shu are not crowned kings, no one among the ministers will be dissatisfied.
"Um!"
At this moment, Qin Wangzheng's face was full of joy: "This matter has been settled. In the army, Gongzi Shu will inform and explain the reasons!"
"As for the civil servants, it is up to the chief minister and the prime minister to do some ideological work!"
"promise!"
Nodding in agreement, Li Si turned and left.
As soon as Zhao Shu was about to leave, he was stopped by Qin Wangzheng: "Young Master Shu stays, Yang Ziren is in the harem!"
"promise!"
After watching Li Si leave, Zhao Shu raised his head and looked at Qin Wangzheng: "Your Majesty, are you leaving here then?"
"No hurries!"
Qin Wangzheng interrupted Zhao Shu's words and walked down from the throne: "It's snowing heavily, let me go for a walk!"
"promise!"
At this time, Zhao Gao brought clothes to the two of them and then walked out of Zhangtai Palace.
"What do you think will happen to our Great Qin in the future?"
"Your Majesty, our Great Qin will surely enter a prosperous age, and our Great Qin will also become a symbol of the times!"
Zhao Shu's eyes were full of heat, and he spoke passionately towards Qin Wangzheng, saying: "Sooner or later, everyone in our Qin will have clothes to wear, food to eat, the elderly to be supported, and the young to be supported!"
"Hahaha......"
With a loud laugh, Qin Wangzheng shook his head: "You are thinking too far!"
"I just want to end the war in the Central Plains right now, so that the people of the world can live well instead of being displaced!"
"I lived a life of precarity and fear in Handan back then. From that moment on, I decided to change everything!"
"The King has done it!"
Zhao Shu's eyes were full of determination, and he looked towards Qin Wangzheng and said: "Great Qin's most difficult period has passed, and Great Qin will get better and better in the future!"
"Ha ha......"
Heavy snow fell from the sky, turning their hair white.
Qin Wangzheng said in a deep tone, "Did the words you said in Zhangtai Palace today come from your heart?"
"Um!"
At this moment, Zhao Shu nodded heavily: "Your Majesty, the general will say a word about Meng Lang!"
"In this world, except for the common people, everything can be overthrown and started over!"
"Including my Ying family, the Great Qin royal family!"
Seeing Qin Wangzheng stop, Zhao Shu raised his head, his eyes twinkling: "If today, it is not me, Great Qin, who dominates the world, but the State of Zhao, or the State of Chu!"
"Today, it is the King of Zhao or the King of Chu, but the common people in this world are still those people."
"The last general once heard a saying: He who wins the hearts of the people wins the world!"
"As long as the people of the Central Plains are committed to the Qin Dynasty, no one will follow them, even if they are the survivors of the Six Kingdoms, and even if they are instigated by hundreds of schools of thought!"
"Without the common people, there will be no food and grass, and there will be no sources of troops!"
"Now that Da Qin has built Shanglin New City, within twenty years, Da Qin will not need to look at the faces of hundreds of schools of thought and old families."
"As long as the common people of the world always stand with our Great Qin royal family, officials, noble families, and nobles can all be replaced!"
“Today’s Great Qin, the most important thing is to win over the people!”
"But this is also the most rare thing!"
"Since the Qin Dynasty came out of the east, the wars of more than ten years have already planted deep hatred among the countries. These hatreds cannot be digested by two generations!"
"Therefore, the last general advises the king to take care of himself!"
"When the king lives as long as King Zhaoxiang and has been in charge of the Qin Dynasty for fifty years, he can sit back and watch the people of the Qin Dynasty win over!"
"The common people in the world don't really have many requirements. They only have one thing, and that is to be able to live and have enough to eat!"
"They actually don't care who becomes the king of the Central Plains!"
"This is also the reason why the general went south to Zhuyue and Nanzhou!"
.......
Qin Wangzheng nodded, and he deeply believed what Zhao Shu said.
"It's just that it's not easy to share the land or to pay for the food. Since the implementation of the twenty-level military merit title system, Daqin has already had a number of new nobles who have emerged as a result!"
Qin Wangzheng's eyes were full of solemnity, and he turned to Zhao Shu and said: "General, Meng, including you, are all vested interests in the twenty-level military merit title system!"
"Moreover, the twenty-level military merit title system is related to the combat effectiveness of Great Qin's warriors!"
"It can be said that a single move affects the whole body!"
"If you are not completely sure, you must not move lightly!"
Qin Wangzheng was a very far-sighted person.
He was very interested in Zhao Shu's proposal, but he was also well aware of the current predicament of the Qin court.
Today's Great Qin can be said to be crossing the river by feeling for the stones. Even the King of Qin is at a loss.
"Your Majesty, we have to do it!"
Zhao Shu's eyes were full of solemnity, and he turned to look in the direction of the ancestral temple: "It was precisely because of Lord Shang's reform that our country, Great Qin, had the opportunity to rise!"
