Chapter 479: You are drunk, my boy. Mother respects you as the king!
The bright red fire burned fiercely and rushed straight to the sky.
The magnificent palace was built at great expense with the finest wood. When it was completed, it looked majestic and majestic, as if the palace of heaven had fallen into the mortal world. When it burned, it was the best kindling for fire, and the black smoke rose like a waterfall, rushing up to the sky and visible for thousands of miles.
"Your retreat not only hurts yourself, but also Fusu."
Zhao Ji spoke quietly in the firelight that illuminated the night and made the continuous palaces as bright as day.
She wore a soft, close-fitting white cloth dress inside and a deerskin fur coat outside. She was beautiful without any makeup, and her brows were as heroic as those of men.
Although she let it go, she still felt unwilling.
You are such a good king, why do you just say you don’t want to do it?
This is the most vast position of the common leader in the world. Later generations do not know it, and no one in the past has ever occupied it.
The ancient sage kings period traced back by Confucian scholars were nothing more than a few tribal forces flowing along the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.
The Qin State, which has now included the Yellow River and the Yangtze River as its inland rivers, is the largest empire that China has ever had, both ancient and modern.
How could she abandon Zheng'er, who continued her life? Even if she didn't consider herself, didn't she consider Fusu and her descendants?
Ying Zheng was wearing a long black robe embroidered with gold. He stood beside his mother with his hands behind his back, looking very majestic.
Whether he sat on the throne or not, whether he was the King of Qin or not, had no effect on his momentum. As long as he appeared, he was still the arrogant god.
The three words "First Emperor" stand at the pinnacle of feudal emperors in Chinese history, forcing countless subsequent emperors to only be able to approach but not surpass him. This was because Ying Zheng chose the title of "First Emperor".
Ying Zheng was not honored because of the First Emperor, but the First Emperor shined because of Ying Zheng.
Reaching out his hand and feeling the scorching fire snake, he knew his mother very well and realized that this action would have too much of an impact on her, so he spoke gently.
“Mother, you worry too much.
"If Fusu was not too young to be the emperor of Qin, Cheng Jiao would have tied Fusu up and brought him back to hold the coronation ceremony.
"This guy has always been lazy. It's true that he wants to do something big, but it's also true that he doesn't want to take responsibility.
"I forced him to be the emperor. I hope he can stay in power for a little longer..."
He smiled slightly.
When Ying Chengjiao left, there was no trace of resentment in his tone, but every word he said was full of resentment, just like him in the past.
If you can pacify the Huns, it will not be difficult to pacify the remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
Brother, please contribute a little. Those who are capable should do more work. Use your ideas to completely take over this world.
When the news that the Huns had been pacified reached Ying Zheng's ears, he was truly shocked. This was a battle that even Wang Jian, the Qin Dynasty's god of war and Marquis of Wucheng, saw no chance of winning.
He originally wanted to use the lives of 500,000 people to make his younger brother a famous general, but he didn't expect that his younger brother was a famous general himself, a famous general who was even more powerful than Wang Jian in some aspects.
After learning from Meng Tian's pigeon letter how Ying Chengjiao took over the Xiongnu land, Ying Zheng was happy but also fell into deep thought.
Qin seized the world by force, recruited wise officials and gathered famous people for the sake of profit, but it discarded the people's hearts and minds like a worn-out shoe and never made any use of it.
Therefore, the First Emperor never believed the public opinion raised by Ying Chengjiao. The fact that the Qin Empire won the world was more convincing than any sweet words.
The Qin people were pragmatic and not idealistic.
But the fact that the Xiongnu land was taken made Ying Zheng, who was not a king, start to seriously examine his brother's proposition.
The Qin State has unified the world for a year, but even now, Qin's decrees are still difficult to get out of Hangu Pass.
The territories of the six kingdoms were nominally owned and managed by the Qin State, but in reality they were governed by local nobles. This forced Ying Zheng, who wanted to do more, to threaten them with death in order to drive out the rats in the gutter.
But what about the Huns’ land?
They had just taken the city, from Gaoque City, which was closest to the Qin State, all the way to Langjuxu Mountain, where no one from the Central Plains had ever set foot, and everyone obeyed the orders of the third son.
There are many reasons for this.
For example, the Qin people and the Xiongnu people have different customs and cultures.
For example, the Xiongnu’s territory was small and not as vast as the Qin State, which was easier to manage.
For example, the third son pretended to be the Xiongnu prince Maodun, and the Xiongnu tribes were naturally obedient to him.
But apart from these reasons, are there any reasons why different war policies lead to different results?
Ying Zheng thought so.
Li Xin led an army of 200,000 to attack the State of Chu. The local Chu people pointed the Qin army in the wrong direction and led them into a swamp and onto Gushan Mountain.
When the Taotie army marched into the desert, the Huns from small and medium-sized tribes vied to send food and fodder.
That's the problem.
He went to the countryside first and then naturalized, while his younger brother conquered the hearts first and then went to the countryside.
The power of popular will is not enough to change the king's flag on the city wall, but it can make everyone in the city want to return to Qin and become Qin's citizens before the city is taken.
Ying Zheng thought of the gun and the pen that his brother had mentioned long ago. He preferred to use the Qin sword and the brush instead.
Although the spear is a very practical weapon on the battlefield, it has always been used as the main weapon.
Due to its length and structure, the Qin sword is mostly used as a secondary weapon.
But the Qin sword is still the best representative of the Qin people's military power.
All countries have unified their production of spears, but only Qin can produce three-foot-long swords.
The Qin Sword is very important. Without the Qin Sword, the world cannot be conquered.
The brush is also very important. Without a brush, it will be not only difficult to conquer the world, but you will also not be able to maintain your stability even if you conquer it.
The fire was getting bigger and bigger, and the shouts of servants running for water and putting out the fire were endless. More and more people came up.
"King Huiwen of Qin died of illness and passed the throne to King Wu of Qin. King Wu of Qin died while lifting a tripod and passed the throne to King Zhaoxiang of Qin. The throne is passed from father to son, and from son to brother. How similar it is. The lineage of Zhaoxiang has inherited the throne to this day, but where is the lineage of King Wu now?"
"Ah? Did your mother forget that the boy practiced the Yellow Emperor? In order to preserve his martial arts, he tried his best to protect his vital energy. If this throne can really wake him up and make him give up martial arts to pass on his family line, it would be a great blessing."
As he spoke, Ying Zheng's mind flashed with the image of his brother who refused to give up his martial arts, and he smiled bitterly.
"Given this boy's inexplicable obsession with martial arts, the temptation of the throne is far from enough."
Ying Zheng just couldn't understand why a man who had no interest in the throne could not give up martial arts.
Learn literary and martial arts, sell them to the imperial family, and get it all in one step. Isn't it good to be an emperor?
While searching for the remains of Huangdi at Mount Hua, quite a few were found, but not one of them contained any record .
Ying Zheng now doubts whether Huangdi really practiced the "Huangdi" technique. This technique is even more absurd than having three thousand concubines.
"When he ascends the throne, he may be able to have his cake and eat it too..."
Zhao Ji muttered to herself, and laughed before Ying Zheng glanced at her with a puzzled look.
"Forget it, forget it. Right or wrong has nothing to do with us mother and son. You don't want the royal power, and mother doesn't want the queen power either. Let this fire burn out the powerful Qin II! Burn out all the evil spirits in this bright and clear world!"
She tapped her toes lightly, and a jar of liquor on the ground fell into her hands.
He removed the mud seal and tilted his head back to drink half the jar.
A touch of the mouth and the rosy cheeks dyed red by wine are very beautiful, but the wildness in his eyes is even more charming!
"Your wine is strong enough, mother respects you as the king!"
The wine jar was thrown into the raging fire, and with a snap, it exploded in front of the mother and son.
Boom!
The flames swelled suddenly, engulfing the two men.
History of Qin:
[In November of the third year of the reign of Emperor Taizong, the Queen Mother and Gan Luo plotted rebellion and assassinated Lord Chang'an in Yong Palace. Gan Luo was killed by Meng Yi on the spot. The Queen Mother, fearing her crime, burned herself in the palace.]
