"His Majesty……"
Li Si opened his mouth, feeling a little heavy.
To be honest, Li Si was mentally prepared to imitate Shang Jun.
However, what Zhao Si settled on was amazing.
Shang Yang's reforms did not dare to do such a cruel thing to the great nobles.
The core of Shang Yang's reforms were the big surname families and heads of Guizhou, not the big aristocrats. Moreover, during Shang Yang's reform process, he also gave many privileges to the nobles and nobles, both in terms of status and laws, which were clearly stipulated.
The rank of nobility was insurmountable. Whether it was in terms of dress or daily life, the privileges of those with high nobility were clearly stipulated by Shang Yang, and they could even use their nobility to compensate for their crimes.
Shang Yang's reform was not complete, and even gave a lot of compensation, and directly stipulated some unspoken privileges of the nobles into the law.
So what happened to Shang Yang?
Divided into pieces by five horses! Death and destruction!
However, there was no room for change in Zhao Si's order to move the nobles to the throne. It was clear that the nobles were going to have their muscles peeled off, their bones broken and their marrow sucked out, to compensate? If remuneration and winning titles count, then there is some meager compensation.
Li Si felt that if Zhao Si's imperial relocation order was to be carried out, dividing the body into pieces by five horses might not be enough. At least ten horses would be needed.
Even though Shang Yang's reform proposed a swap of interests, there was a lot of resistance. This order of relocation made it even more clear that it was a blow to the bones and sucked out the marrow. You can imagine how big the resistance was.
As for the outcome...it's hard to say.
Li Si's preparation was to follow Shang Yang's example, so he made some concessions in the order of relocation. For example, he planned to allow the relocated nobles to be given priority in hiring officials... or to allow these nobles to sit in on the affairs. …
Seriously speaking, he is not afraid of death, but he has children and descendants. He is not afraid of being quartered. What he is afraid of is the loss of heirs.
Da Qin's current continuous sitting method was revised by him.
The First Emperor raised his head and looked at Li Si, but did not speak.
Obviously, Li Si was shaken at this moment. He was worried that the First Emperor would not protect him. He was not sure whether he would be thrown away after use, or used as a tool to calm his anger.
In fact, Li Si was very clear about his position in the heart of the First Emperor.
He has never been a trusted minister of the First Emperor, he is not Meng Yi...
He was just a tool used by the First Emperor to implement his will. Because of an incident many years ago, he and the First Emperor had long been separated.
Li Si was very worried that after he implemented the imperial edict, when he was about to complete his work and be able to popularize Qin laws and amend Qin laws in the local areas without any obstacles, he was thrown out by the First Emperor to appease his anger.
If the relocation order is successful, the road will be smooth.
What Li Si was worried about was that he was not even qualified for a good harvest.
"Is this strategy possible?" the First Emperor asked softly.
"It works!" Li Si gritted his teeth.
Although he had hidden concerns, he did not refuse after all.
Zhao Si couldn't handle such an interlocking relocation order. Making suggestions and succeeding were two different things. There were only a few people in the world who could succeed in this interlocking strategy.
And the only person in the world who can succeed, who is willing to spare no effort without compromise, and who can do it thoroughly, is Li Si.
Yes! He is the only one left!
If he wanted to make the world as well governed as Guanzhong during his lifetime, he had to move his order.
If he wanted to take a step forward in the position of left prime minister and become the right prime minister of the Qin Dynasty, he would be inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people, so he had to apply for a relocation order.
This first volume was a temptation that Li Si could not refuse.
Even if it means being quartered by five horses, even if it means death, he has a reason why he has to do it.
Moreover, in Li Si's view, this first volume of the Imperial Relocation Order, aside from the Imperial Relocation Order, the Suan Mian, the Suo Mian, the Family Separation Order, and the Reporting Order are all national policies that can be implemented independently.
Who said that gossip is only aimed at this group of nobles who have moved away? Who said that the family separation order and the denouncement order were only targeted at this group of nobles who moved away?
Except for the one-time reward for seizing the knighthood and the benevolent marriage, the rest of this strategy, even if taken alone, is enough to make a sensation in history and make people talk about it.
This was Li Si's political intuition as the left prime minister of Qin.
In fact, Suan Min sued Min was the basic national policy of the Han Dynasty. Objectively speaking, the more thoroughly Suan Min sued Min was implemented, the stronger the national power was and the greater the central control. By the end of the Western Han Dynasty, Suan Min sued Min was almost gone in name only.
The family separation order and the denunciation order were originally inspired by Zhao Si in the Tuan Order, and there is no need to go into details.
This first volume will even give Li Si the illusion that the Qiangui Order is just a foil.
Looking at the current situation, the implementation of the relocation order is an important turning point in the centralization of power.
However, if we look at hundreds of years and thousands of years, the family separation order and the informing order can become the national policy of the Qin Dynasty.
For Li Si, this first volume is a treasure in every way. Li Si can make countless extensions to each individual decree, so that he is now bursting with inspiration, and some of the problems that troubled him before have been solved.
This first volume is an important tool for realizing his ideals and ambitions in life. How could he... give up?
Li Si shook his head and smiled, unfolding the first volume of the moving order written by Zhao Si and said: "Your Majesty, this matter must be done by me!"
Divided into pieces by five horses! It has to be me!
Five horses? So what about six horses?
"Good!" The First Emperor chuckled lightly!
In fact, after experiencing the previous major changes, Li Si restrained a lot of edges and corners, appeared well-behaved and docile in front of the First Emperor, and rarely acted impulsive in front of the First Emperor.
Since that incident, the First Emperor regarded Li Si as a tool man to implement his will, and Li Si also adapted to the attribute of a tool man to realize his ideals and ambitions.
But if you want to do such an extraordinary thing, you must have the consent of the emperor and his ministers.
From the moment Li Si agreed, it meant that he gave everything he had to the First Emperor without reservation.
Whether to throw it away after use or let Li Si continue to harvest the fruits of victory after use, the decision rests with the First Emperor.
Yes, Li Si has already acquiesced to the ending of his own death. He is even thinking about whether he should be more creative when he dies, so that he can be more sensational and not waste his hard life.
A wise person can foresee the outcome before acting.
What is commendable is that even if you know you are going to die, you still have the courage to move forward.
Maybe someone like Wu Zixu would dig up his grave and whip his corpse, Li Si thought for no reason.
After all, he did more excessive things than Shang Yang. Shang Yang transferred benefits and rights while also clarifying the punishment.
The nobles hated them, but they still had the last bit of respect and awe for Lord Shang.
And Zhao Si's strategy is to trick people into killing him without any regard for martial ethics~~
Shang Jun pays attention to treating everyone equally and punishing crimes according to the law. Zhao Si's strategy highlights an idealism, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it is unnecessary.
But Li Si decided to do it.
Li Si knew very well that as long as he started to implement this policy, he would be promoted to the right prime minister, one person below ten thousand people.
The prerequisite for a tool man to function is to give him enough rights and status. During this period of time, the First Emperor will spare no effort to stand behind him. As long as the First Emperor wants to implement this policy, then he will truly be the leader of one man. Above ten thousand people, during this period of time, he was truly following the king's orders and acting on behalf of heaven.
Li Si has only two pursuits in life.
One is to become the right prime minister, one person is inferior to ten thousand people.
The second is to complete the great deeds like Shang Jun and get rid of the shadow cast by that person.
Both of these can only be realized if he executes the imperial eviction order.
The monarch and his ministers reached a consensus at this moment, and the previous estrangements were temporarily put aside.
On the way home... Li Si couldn't put it down holding Qiangui Ling in his hands.
Not only the moving order, but also the family separation order and the reporting order. Li Si is thinking about how to formulate laws based on this and incorporate it into the future laws of the Qin Dynasty to become a final conclusion.
He walked and read all the way, even if the light in the carriage flickered and flickered on and off, so that he had to stand close in front of his eyes to read.
He studied every word carefully, and when he returned home, he even forgot to eat...
"Why is father so forgetful today?" Li Si's son Li You smiled and saluted Li Si.
"My son has ordered his maid to prepare hot water. Why don't you, father, wash yourself up and read at night by candlelight?"
Li Si was awakened from his addiction by Li You's voice. Looking at his beloved legitimate son, Li Si was shocked to realize that he was too addicted. It was late at night, and he couldn't help but smile: "I was obsessed for a while, but I didn't know when."
After that, Li Si walked out under the service of the maid, taking off his clothes and belt.
Li You, on the other hand, curiously walked to his father's case.
"My father didn't know where he got this unique book, but he was so lost!"
Li You knew that his father liked reading, especially Legalist books. Because books in this era were not widely circulated, and most of them were orphans, Li Si would often forget to eat and sleep every time he found a rare, orphaned masterpiece.
Later, Li Si's status became higher and higher, and he obtained more and more unique books. Until now, as the left prime minister, there are only a handful of Legalist books in the world that Li Si has not read.
As for Li Si's son, Li You was equally knowledgeable and had a high reserve of knowledge. He also inherited Li Si's love of reading. Li You had read almost all of Li Si's books.
Seeing his father forgetting to eat and sleep, Li couldn't help but pick up the bamboo slips out of curiosity.
"Moving to the Imperial Palace? Whose book is this? Why haven't you heard of it?"
"Hiss! This handwriting..." The three characters Qiangui Ling came into view, without a signature.
Zhao Si's classic dog-crawling calligraphy made Li You frown. Li Si created Xiaozhuan. As the son of the founder, Li You's calligraphy is very good, and he has a bit of obsessive-compulsive disorder. Zhao Si's dog-crawling calligraphy is indeed a bit offensive to Li You's aesthetics, but Li You knew that calligraphy could not determine the level of knowledge, so he endured the discomfort and continued reading.
"Relocate the old nobles of the six countries? Huh? This is a good idea..."
It is worth mentioning that Li You was a general, but in this era, civil and military families were not separated. While commanding the army, it did not affect Li You's profound knowledge.
In fact, Li You is very knowledgeable and smart. The main reason why he is a general is to avoid suspicion. After all, his father is the left prime minister of the Qin Dynasty. Li You also has a heart for self-improvement and does not want to be secretly said to be relying on others. Father's shade.
"If you want to move the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms, I'm afraid it's impossible for some people to do it..." Li You touched his chin and his father's beautiful beard.
"The old nobles of the Six Kingdoms are not fools. They also specially select the old nobles of the Six Kingdoms who are famous, powerful, and wealthy... What's more, many nobles have in-laws, and they are involved with each other, and they are all over the court... I am afraid that this decree will be Will be criticized by thousands of people..."
"Are you planning to sue me?"
"A gracious marriage, a reward for winning a title? A family separation order and a denouncement order?"
"Hiss!" Li Youye took a breath of cold air.
"Who could write such a vicious policy..." Li Youjue said, people would be scolded just for seeing this kind of thing.
You must scold him!
Li You’s father is Li Si!
There are no longer a few who are famous, powerful, have money and land...
If according to this evaluation standard, wouldn't his Li family also have a share?
"This doesn't look like a book!" Li You was secretly surprised.
"Wait! Isn't this a government order?" An idea suddenly popped into Li You's mind.
"Who proposed this decree? Want to implement this kind of decree? Isn't it fanciful? I'm afraid that before it can be implemented, it will be dead as soon as it is proposed. It has been idle for too long, right?"
"Other than my father, there is probably no one in the world who has enough status and power to implement this kind of decree!"
"hold on……"
Li You keenly captured Hua Dian.
Who lives too long with nothing to do?
It can't be my father, right?
Li You recalled how his father spent all his sleep and food reading word for word by the light.
"This..." Li You held the bamboo slip with a trace of anxiety between his brows.
If you think about it seriously, if you ask who has the ability to implement such a policy, it must be my father.
Moreover, although my father is now a very popular minister, he is still one step away from the top of power, from left prime minister to right prime minister.
Li Si has been waiting for this step for more than ten years.
If we are to implement such a policy, it is indeed enough to go a step further. After all, if we want to implement such a policy, the monarch and his ministers must work together, and the ministers must be in a high position and be able to shock the world.
But……
Such a policy...
"This policy of not judging crimes...Legalists pay attention to clear and canonical punishments..."
Li You held the bamboo slip and walked around the house.
This kind of policy is inconsistent with my father's political views.
Li You admitted that the calculations and reports were really outstanding, so outstanding that even he wanted to codify them into the laws of Qin and implement them.
But……
If this imperial eviction order is combined in one set, it will be a disaster that will destroy the family.
Li You knew that his father admired Shang Yang and often compared himself with it.
yes!
Shang Yang indeed established great achievements and made an indelible contribution to the unification of the Qin Dynasty.
But what is Shang Yang's ending?
Five horses cut the body into pieces, and the body was dead and the clan was destroyed. As a result, all the descendants were sitting together, and no one survived.
"Isn't this what His Majesty meant..."
"Father, he won't agree yet, right?"
Li You was a little anxious at the moment...
Li You was not a fool. With just a cursory glance, he knew the danger of this strategy.
Putting aside the danger to the country, the risk to his family is even greater.
This is the kind of policy where the Li family will be exterminated regardless of whether it succeeds or not.
The nobles' counterattack and liquidation may not only lead to the annihilation of the clan, but may also affect their disciples, students, and friends, the kind that the nine clans will enjoy!
(No more, not a drop left...)
