Chapter 81 Crazy national debt shocked the ministers [Please collect and read]

"My dear friends, why are you like this? Get up quickly!"

Ying Zheng glanced around at the ministers and raised his hand with a smile.

He finally understood that a tyrant has his own way of being a tyrant, and a benevolent king has his own way of being a benevolent king. No wonder that boy proposed the way of an emperor to govern the country.

This emperor's way, giving both kindness and power, is indeed good.

"Your Majesty really wants to entrust the land of Baiyue?"

When the ministers slowly stood up, Li Si couldn't help but ask.

Ying Zheng only discussed the matter of enfeoffment with Wang Jian, but not with him.

Among all the ministers present, only Wei Liao knew about this.

Now that Li Si mentioned it, the ministers also looked at Ying Zheng with some uncertainty.

Because of the previous temperament of the First Emperor, it was impossible to support the enfeoffment system. Even the land of Baiyue could not be enfeoffed.

But now their attitude has changed so much that they can't help but be doubtful.

But I heard Ying Zheng laugh and say: "Li Tingwei has any opinions, but it doesn't matter."

"Back to Your Majesty, even if the land of Baiyue does not belong to our Great Qin for the time being, as your Majesty said, the land of Baiyue is in the possession of our Great Qin. If the Great Qin conquers the Land of Baiyue and implements the enfeoffment system, wouldn't it be inconsistent with the current situation?

Is it incompatible with the county system?"

"not to mention"

Li Si said, paused, and then said: "One dynasty, two systems, has never existed in ancient times. How should we govern it?"

"Before I answer Tingwei, I would like to ask Tingwei how Shangjun's reform was successful?"

Ying Zheng asked solemnly.

"Um?"

Li Si was stunned for a moment and said concisely: "Tumu Lixin!"

"In this case, can the king break his promise?"

"cannot!"

"Then based on the military merit award system, can our Great Qin court be able to win a title for someone who broke their promise?"

"this"

Li Si was stunned on the spot when asked.

He did not dare to answer this and could not answer it.

Ying Zheng glanced at him, smiled and said: "Wei Ting, don't worry, just speak out!"

Li Si sighed inwardly, shook his head and said, "No."

"good!"

Ying Zheng smiled and nodded, then looked around at the ministers and said loudly: "We, the Qin Dynasty, admire the rule of law, so we should govern the country according to the law, and we must not break our trust in the world!"

"Qin law stipulates that those who win the title should be rewarded, so they should abide by the law."

"Therefore, I have decided to issue national debts to the winners in the name of the Qin Dynasty!"

"National debt?"

All the ministers were confused.

Feng Quji couldn't sit still any longer and quickly stood up and said, "Your Majesty, you can't do that!"

"Why not?"

Ying Zheng turned his head suddenly and glanced over coldly.

Feng Quji's face turned bitter, and he cupped his hands and said, "Your Majesty, although I don't know what national debt is, I still know a thing or two about debt. I think this is a national policy planned by your Majesty in order not to break trust with the person who won the title."

"However, if the court has a debt relationship with the person who receives the title, then where is the prestige of the court?"

As soon as these words came out, all the ministers looked at each other in shock.

It seems that he also agrees with Feng Quji’s discussion.

When a court governs a country, it must have prestige. Otherwise, how can it make people surrender?

The old Prime Minister Wang Wan frowned and stood up: "Your Majesty, please tell me clearly what this national debt is?"

"Your Majesty, please make it clear!" All the ministers echoed.

Ying Zheng looked at Feng Quji, then at Wang Wan, and said solemnly: "The so-called national debt, just as Prime Minister Feng Zuo said, is a national policy planned by me to ensure that those who win the title will not break their trust!"

"Although the imperial court is temporarily unable to come up with the rewards that should be given, I must give an explanation to the knights. If I don't explain anything, I will not only be ashamed of them, but also the elders who died on the battlefield!"

Hearing this, all the ministers were moved.

Who said that the First Emperor was ruthless and unjust?

Isn’t this quite sentimental!

"Then what your Majesty said is that he intends to give the knight a certificate and then make up for the reward when the court becomes rich?" Li Si was the first to react.

"Exactly!"

"Does Your Majesty know how long it will take to pay off all the national debt?"

yes!

This is too crazy!

In the battle of the Qin Dynasty to destroy the Six Kingdoms, more than 100,000 people were awarded titles, and countless grains of land were awarded. How could the imperial court still survive?

The ministers were worried and couldn't help but cast their eyes on Ying Zheng.

Ying Zheng said calmly and solemnly: "It's not over yet, I have to pay it back. I will never forget anyone's contribution!"

"Your Majesty, Holy Ming!"

The ministers were so moved that they couldn't help but echoed in unison.

Wei Liao looked on without saying a word.

Regarding the national debt, he actually agrees with it.

No matter what purpose the First Emperor and his son had, at least the national debt policy was okay.

It is indeed important to establish the credibility of the king.

The First Emperor's unfaithful and unkind image has long dissatisfied the people of the world.

To talk about the prestige of the imperial court, it is actually the strictness of Qin's laws that suppressed people's expression of dissatisfaction.

But if this kind of emotion is suppressed for a long time, it can easily lead to problems.

The First Emperor understood this clearly from Zhao Hao's discussion, so he adjusted his mentality and prepared to restore his image.

Feng Quji did not see this problem, but the First Emperor and him understood it very well.

"Even if His Majesty doesn't want to break his promise to the person who won the title, there is no need to entrust the land of Baiyue and issue national debts!"

Just when the ministers were lamenting the benevolence and righteousness of the First Emperor, Yao Jia stood up and said loudly: "Anyway, they are issuing national debts, and everyone is the same. Wouldn't it be better?"

As soon as this statement came out, many veterans of the empire immediately frowned.

They were looking forward to the stars and the moon. They had long thought about the First Emperor's enfeoffment. Now that the First Emperor had clearly stated that the land of Baiyue would be enfeoffed, this guy actually came out to disrupt the situation. It's really hateful!

As if he had seen through their thoughts, Ying Zheng smiled slightly: "What Yao Tingwei said is reasonable, but has Yao Tingwei ever thought about how the rewards of Chehou and Guanneihou compare with those of hundreds of thousands of knights?

"

"this"

Yao Jia was stunned for a moment, and then said seriously: "How can you serve your country for personal gain? Your Majesty is looking down on us!"

He was also granted the title of Marquis of Guannei, but he did not want to implement the enfeoffment system.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Wang Jian immediately stood up and sneered: "Zuo Tingwei is very righteous, but I don't agree with it. I fight for the country on the battlefield for this benefit!"

"If there is no benefit, I will not bother to work hard for the country!"

"How can the old general be so shameless!" Yao Jia blushed.

"presumptuous!"

Wang Ben shouted loudly and glared at Yao Jia.

"Okay, okay, Marquis Tongwu doesn't need to be angry."

Meng Tian stepped forward and gave Wang Bi a hand, giving him a hug and comforting him.

Wang Ben snorted coldly, ignored him, and directly handed over to Ying Zheng: "Your Majesty, although I do not agree with the enfeoffment system, your Majesty rewarded me with the land of Baiyue, and I am very grateful!"

"I am so grateful that I can't help but shed tears of gratitude!"

Many military generals stood up and agreed.
