Chapter 11 Ascension to the Throne
"The king is kind and kind, but the world is determined at the beginning, and there are many people who need to use the people's power. In this way, there will be no people's power available. What should I do?" Chunyu Yue took the lead and said hurriedly.
Originally, Fan Sui wanted to advise and block, but he didn't expect that Chunyu Yue would take the lead. What he said was exactly what Fan Sui was going to say, and he nodded slightly and agreed with this.
"Yes, Master, please think twice." The people in the palace said in unison.
As long as one person can understand, the great struggles of the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period left too many problems. To eliminate these accumulated problems, a lot of people's strength will be required, which is inevitable. Qin Yiren insisted that the labor service should not exceed one hundred miles of the place where his family was. If it exceeds, money and food will be used as a sum. This is certainly convenient for the people of the country, but it reduces many people and makes people worry.
"With money and food, are you still worried about no one?" Qin Yiren was full of confidence, waved his right hand and said generously: "I have my own way to do this. Don't worry, you have a lot of things to do, and you won't worry about the people."
It is impossible to worry about the people and do a lot of things. In the eyes of the ancients in the Warring States Period, it is tantamount to "not having the horses good, but not giving them grass." Although they admired Qin Yiren very much, they did not believe it very much.
"Your Majesty, you didn't tell lies, are you?" Fan Sui hesitated for a while and asked.
These words were exactly what the people in the palace were thinking, and they all looked at Qin Yiren.
"You have no jokes." Qin Yiren is full of confidence.
After discussing the matter for a while, it broke up.
When Qin Yiren went back, he saw Zhao Ji, Mrs. Qing and Meng Yi together laughing, talking and laughing. The two brothers Ying Zheng and Ying were fighting and shouting.
"Zheng'er, come here." Qin Yiren waved at the two little guys.
Ying Zheng is now a teenager, tall, no less than 1.8 meters tall, and in a few years, 1.9 meters will no longer be a problem. Moreover, he is very handsome. Whenever he appears in Xianyang Street, it will attract many people's screams.
"Father, my brother bullies me. Father, you want to punish me for your crime." Ying sued Diao.
"Father, don't you tell me that I'm so well-behaved, sensible and kind, how could I bully him?" Ying Zheng hurriedly defended himself, and did not forget to put gold on his face.
Whenever the two brothers saw Qin Yiren, one would sue the foolish complaint, and the other would make Qin Yiren so boastful.
"Father asked you, are you willing to be emperor?" Qin Yiren asked the two little guys.
"No!" The young master shook his head and kept saying, "What's the point of being an emperor? He was exhausted and didn't even have time to eat and sleep. I want to be the largest merchant in the world like my mother. It's rich and not hard to work."
"Son, do you really don't want to be the emperor?" Qin Yiren asked a little surprised.
"Of course." Ying Yi's head shook like a rattle, almost twisted his neck, leaned into Mrs. Qing's arms and said coquettishly: "Mom, don't use up all the gold, you must keep it for me."
"You child..." Mrs. Qing stroked Ying's head with pity and smiled at Qin Yiren: "Your Majesty, I am like a concubine, but I don't like political affairs. I like business affairs, so let him go to business."
"Where is Zheng'er?" Qin Yiren asked Ying Zheng.
Zhao Ji was quite nervous, her eyes widened and kept blinking at Ying Zheng, asking him to say no.
This is when Qin Yiren was asked this question. There will be no cause. There must be something big. Zhao Ji was afraid that Ying Zheng would not know the world is so strong that he said the wrong thing. Then it would be a big trouble.
"Father, let the sky be," Ying Zheng thought for a while.
"Slippery! You are really his little slippery." Qin Yiren reached out and scraped Ying Zheng's nose.
It aroused Ying Zheng's dissatisfaction and protested: "Father, you bullied me again."
"Bang!" Qin Yiren slapped Ying Zheng on the butt with his right hand and said, "This is called bullying."
Ying Zheng scattered his tongue, made a face, and stopped talking.
"Madam, help me do something." Qin Yiren said to Mrs. Qing: "You are the largest merchant in the world and have a high prestige among merchants. You will send a letter to the Yidun clan of Chu, the Zhuo clan of Zhao, the Tian clan of Qi, the Bai clan of Wei, and also to invite them to gather in Xianyang and say that there is something big to discuss."
"Your Majesty, you can issue an order directly. I wish they dare not come." Mrs. Qing was stunned.
Qin Yiren is the emperor. He sent his order to send him down. Who dares not come?
"Isn't I scared them out of my courage by issuing an order? They thought I was interested in their money bags." Qin Yiren said.
"Since that's the case, I'll compile books." After Madam Qing's capable man decided, he immediately started to compile books.
XXXOXOX
When he went to the study, Qin Yiren was handling official duties. Fan Sui brought a few eunuchs and brought two things, one for the crown and the other for the imperial robe, and said, "Your Majesty, the crown and the imperial robe are ready. Please check it out."
Qin Yiren put down the bamboo slips in his hand, stood up, picked up the crown and saw that the crown was very well made, with many pearls on it, which was very expensive. The crown alone was worth tens of thousands of gold.
Look at the imperial robe, it is exquisitely crafted and valuable, and at least it costs tens of thousands of gold.
Qin Yiren shook his head and said, "No, rework."
"Your Majesty, this time is tight, so it may not be too late to do it again." Fan Sui hurriedly explained.
Time has passed one day, and tomorrow is the time for Qin Yiren to ascend the throne. It is too late to do it again.
"Fan Sui, Fan Sui, when did you still have luxury? Look at this crown, worth tens of thousands of gold, right?" Qin Yi said in a deep voice: "The world is settled for the first time, and there is a lot of money needed. The Qin Dynasty advocates frugality and not luxury. Did you forget so quickly?"
"Your Majesty, you have wronged the ministers. My ministers also advocate frugality. However, this matter is a public discussion. Shandong famous scholars and well-educated scholars strongly advocate this. Saying that this is not so much is enough to show the achievements of the emperor." Fan Sui was a little distressed and said, "The public opinion is fierce, but I will not be able to stop it."
"If this is not the case, it is not enough to show my achievements? A joke!" Qin Yiren said coldly, "According to what they say, as long as the crown on their heads is expensive, the more successful the achievements will be? Then, those luxury kings in Shandong will not perish. It is also a big mistake. My achievements are not the value of the crown on their heads, but whether the people in the world live and work in peace, whether they have food to eat, and whether they have clothes to wear. If the people in the country live and work in peace and work in peace and prosperity, even if they wear bamboo crowns on their heads, they will have a great achievement. If the people in the country are not full, don’t wear warm clothes, and cannot live and work in peace, the crown on their heads is in vain."
This was so reasonable. Fan Sui was convinced and said, "Your wise and wise."
"Prepare it and remade it, it must not exceed ten gold." Qin Yiren said in a deep voice.
"Ten golds? Master, this is too little, right?" Fan Sui was stunned and immediately dissuaded, saying, "No matter what, the emperor cannot be so shabby."
Ten gold is indeed too little for the emperor, and it can be said that it is very shabby.
"There are a lot of ten golds. The middle-class family of ten gold feet will be used for one or two years." Qin Yiren said earnestly and said, "Prime Minister, have you ever thought about it? I am the founding king of the country, and every word and action will be imitated by future generations. If I am extravagant, will the king of later generations still have the ability? Why don't I collect all the rare treasures in the world?"
This is very reasonable. Any founding king who said and acted were the norms of future generations. If Qin Yiren was luxurious, he would definitely be extravagant. If Qin Yiren was frugal, although he might not be able to make future generations frugal, at least he would have good binding force.
"Your Highness is far-sighted and I admire you, so I will change it." Fan Sui agreed with this and immediately left with the crown robe.
The next day was the day when Qin Yiren ascended the throne and became emperor. Xianyang City was filled with joy, and everyone was wearing new clothes. It was hard to say that they were happy, and they were even happier than the New Year.
The symbolic significance of Qin Yiren ascended the throne was very great, which means that the Qin State was completed and the great struggle between the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period was officially over. At the same time, it also means that a new era that continues the past and opens up the future is coming. Who can not be happy?
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, the people suffered hard in the Warring States Period and were indecent. There were countless people who died in ditches and countless people died. The world of great struggle was over and a new era was coming, which meant that there were good days. Who could not hope?
Famous and well-educated people from Shandong have been fond of their hearts and prepared beautiful articles, preparing to praise them while Qin Yiren ascended the throne. Of course, some of them are flattering, and some are sincerely praised.
However, what they didn't expect was that their preparations were in vain and there was no chance at all.
The process of Qin Yiren ascending the throne lasted very short, less than an hour.
The first thing is of course to worship the heaven, earth, mountains and rivers. This is a necessary gift in the Warring States Period. Even a major event like ascending the throne cannot be missed.
Then he went to the ancestral temple to worship the ancestors and let them know in the nine springs that after hundreds of years of fighting, the Qin State finally achieved great achievements and unified the world.
The third thing is to wear the crown and the imperial robe. Qin Yiren officially became the "emperor" and no longer the "Qin Emperor".
The fourth thing is to accept congratulations from the ministers. This matter did not take long. Many people wanted to praise it well, but Qin Yiren did not give them a chance. After the congratulations, Qin Yiren waved his hand and said, "I ascended the throne, and I cannot be without a queen. Zhao Ji followed me for a long time, has good character and has never lost her morality. She should be the queen."
In history, Zhao Ji met someone bad and Lu Buwei, and eventually became a slut, shamed and ridiculed by future generations. However, today, Zhao Ji met Qin Yiren, not only did she not lose her morality, but also helped her. It can be said that she was very virtuous and loved by all the ministers. As the queen, no one was different.
After granting Zhao Ji's seal, Zhao Ji officially became the queen.
The fifth thing is to establish the crown prince. At this point, many people realized that the Qing Lady was also virtuous and was not appointed as the queen. This is the reason, because Qin Yiren wanted to make Ying Zheng the crown prince, and the son was noble of his mother, so Zhao Ji must be the queen.
Ying Zheng was only thirteen or fourteen years old, but he was extremely intelligent and talented. The court officials praised him for being the crown prince, and no one had any objections.
In this way, Ying Zheng officially became the crown prince.
The reason why Qin Yiren appointed the crown prince so early was because Ying Zheng was extremely talented and he was most suitable to be the crown prince. The second was because Qin Yiren did not want to repeat the mistakes of history. In history, Fusu was not appointed as the crown prince, which was the reason why Zhao Gao and Li Si were able to forge the imperial edict. If Fusu was appointed as the crown prince, his succession would be legitimate, and perhaps the Qin Dynasty would not perish.
