Chapter 2553: Searching for the Reincarnated Person
When Wang Dafan heard what Qin Shihuang did, he felt that he had really learned a lesson.
When I read textbooks before, I always felt sad for the death of loyal ministers and angry for the cruelty and stupidity of the emperor.
Now think about it, in fact, in the eyes of the emperor, loyalty is invisible.
You may be loyal today, but you will become disloyal tomorrow when you have power.
What he sees is your value, the power you show, and the stability that comes with it.
Because he is the emperor, high above, he usually sees many ministers who say loyal words but do rebellious things.
So it is difficult for him to really distinguish loyal ministers.
The variables he can clearly determine are how much power you have, how many people you can influence, and whether you are a threat to his position...
These can be checked through the factory guards.
And loyalty, in the eyes of the emperor, can only be determined after a person dies.
You clearly have the power to rebel, but you are content to die. How many people will be convinced that you are not a loyal minister?
You can obviously escape, but you stay to die, then you must be a great loyal minister.
Therefore, loyal ministers who were wrongly killed will basically be vindicated afterwards, because they need to be encouraged and commended.
Even if doing so will damage the reputation of the previous emperor, it is nothing compared to the power of the current emperor.
Only by vindicating loyal ministers can more people form the atmosphere and mentality of being loyal ministers.
As a superior, you cannot be without emotion in your eyes, but you must never let emotion influence your judgment.
A superior who has no emotion at all is difficult to fool people and difficult to make people fight for their lives at a critical moment.
Chen Youliang was just this little short.
This loyal minister was quickly dragged out and killed by Qin Shihuang.
However, at the end of the killing, someone came to plead for mercy.
Qin Shihuang hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I will pardon you for your previous merits."
"But you must remember that finding the reincarnated person is the foundation of my great Qin for eternity!"
The loyal minister was so embarrassed that he could only kowtow repeatedly.
He burst into tears: "Your Majesty, I would rather die than wake you up!"
"The theory of reincarnation is a hoax!"
After saying that, he slammed his head against the pillar.
The attendants beside him hurriedly stopped him.
Your Majesty doesn't want you to die, so you can't die.
At least you can't die in this hall and disturb His Majesty.
"Asshole, drag him down!" Qin Shihuang was furious.
But he was still a little rational.
Since he had already pardoned him, showing his magnanimity and proving his determination, he couldn't go back on his word and kill him again.
Unless this person is really ignorant.
At this time, other ministers who still had consciences hurriedly pulled the loyal minister down.
In fact, in history, Qin Shihuang sought the elixir of immortality, and some people advised him.
But it obviously had no effect.
Because this kind of advice, in the eyes of the emperor, is very easy to be misinterpreted as:
You think I'm not good and don't want me to live forever.
You want me, the emperor, to die!
So when the emperor deceived himself, no one could make sense.
Unless the emperor saw through the liar's lies and was awakened by the facts.
Can you take a dream seriously? Why do some people say they are immortals all day long?
Qin Shihuang is not a fool.
He believed this person's words at first.
Then he checked and found that the person did not have any immortal ability at all.
He would definitely die if he cut him with a knife.
But the other party did not say that he was a god. He just said that his ancestors were reincarnated people.
Only people like his ancestors are worthy of being called immortals. How can the king of the world be compared with him?
After hearing this.
Wang Dafan couldn't help but sigh.
Sure enough, as long as there is a small flaw, there will be a big problem.
Originally, in such a place, even if you say you are immortal, it is difficult for anyone to believe you.
Because everyone thinks this is fake.
The problem is that the emperor is not everyone.
What the emperor thinks is not something that everyone can deny.
Ordinary people don't believe this.
But the emperor thinks this will succeed.
Because the emperor wants to believe and thinks he has enough ability to achieve this.
When ordinary people hear this, they know that they can't do it.
They just think about it and won't bother.
Of course, there are countless ordinary people who ruin their families for cultivation.
There is even a mysterious saying that cultivation can ruin the luck of one's family.
In fact, they were fooled and lost everything.
Ordinary people will be fooled by routines, which are exactly the same as many routines in later generations.
In short.
Wang Dafan now knows that things are very bad, and he has to act quickly.
Otherwise, how can he have a fun life in the future?
If he continues to live under the same feudal dynasty, it will be a huge threat to him and his family.
And it has begun to appear now.
Someone advised Qin Shihuang that he could force the reincarnated person to appear by arresting the other party's clansmen.
After all, the other party's reincarnation is likely to be, or should be said to be, his own clansmen.
"Your Majesty, as long as the other party's clansmen are under your control..."
"The other party doesn't want to be unable to reincarnate, so he can only tell the secret."
The lucky minister said this, and soon made Qin Shihuang very happy.
But he still has some sense.
First courtesy, then force.
To avoid the other party from choosing to perish together with his enemy.
Although this possibility is rare.
After hearing the latest intelligence, Wang Dafan immediately realized that things were not going well.
Because the laws of the Qin Dynasty were strict and harsh, they would punish the whole clan if they went there.
Since the emperor took office, more than a dozen families have been completely wiped out.
Only women and children were left alive, and all other adults were killed.
If the other party also did this to him, even if he had hidden some of his people in the mountains, it was not impossible to find them.
Then his reincarnation was a matter of probability.
It was impossible to reincarnate into a woman, which meant that his choices would be much smaller.
It was even possible that he would be born as a child.
The survival rate of children was too low.
A fact is that under normal circumstances, the mortality rate of princes was as high as 60% to 70%.
Of course, this was also related to the fierce struggles within the palace.
But it was certain that the princes of the Ming and Qing dynasties had short lives, which had been verified by statistics.
Some people speculated that there was something wrong with the construction of the palace.
But the problem was that many people in it lived to be over 80 years old.
Medical conditions are still not good enough to solve many minor problems.
Many children actually develop pneumonia with a high fever, which would only require two weeks of hospitalization in modern times.
But in ancient times, it was a terminal illness and there was no way to solve it.
The main reason is that there is no way to solve the bacteria.
This cannot be solved by taking ordinary medicines.
Antibiotics must be used.
Of course, he had foresight and dispersed his family early.
He even dispersed his nephews and sons in this life early.
He just didn't want them to be caught in one fell swoop.
So.
He is still safe for the time being.
However, he doesn't want this kind of power to continue to exist.
If it continues to exist, it will be a big threat to him sooner or later.
Because the emperor will pass on his ambitions.
Qin Shihuang can resist it, but what about the Han Wudi below?
Tang Taizong?
Jiajing?
These emperors are not easy to deal with.
There is the hope of immortality in front of them, and it is real.
There is no telling how much execution they can burst out.
The Qin Dynasty could massacre all cities that refused to obey in order to unify the world.
Not to mention for this greater benefit?
He didn't want to live a good life and suddenly be killed by someone.
That kind of thing is too depressing.
Then he began to overthrow the dynasty.
In addition, he had to step up the deployment of his family overseas.
The dynasty could not continue to be strong and stable.
In fact, the Qin Dynasty wanted to transform from the beginning.
As a result, ordinary people had no time to rest and recuperate because of constant labor.
The result was to quickly build the Great Wall, canals, and straight roads.
In the end, it led to a situation where one person rebelled and hundreds responded.
If others could survive, 90% of people would not choose to join the rebellion.
They would only think about watching to the end and follow whoever wins.
The question is.
How to overthrow a newly created dynasty?
Wang Dafan thought it was actually very simple.
After all, he had too many memories and real operations.
Many of his abilities reached the peak of the world within a thousand years.
Including polishing a stone pillar.
That is to completely detonate this dynasty.
In a feudal dynasty like this, people are not satisfied.
In fact, the majority of people are dissatisfied, and only a small number of people are satisfied.
The key is that this dynasty has left too many problems.
Qin Shihuang's life span is not many years.
Because like the real Qin Shihuang in history, he worked hard all year round, so his life span could not be too long.
It is actually very good to live for fifty years.
In fact, he died at the age of forty-nine.
No one knows if Daqin can continue to persist if he does not leave?
Maybe for a while, Daqin can be stable, but in fact everyone knows that this is impossible.
Because there are too many old nobles from other forces.
In the past, when they still had a country as a background, they turned themselves into parasites of the forces.
And now, with the family business gone, they have to start working again and fight again.
In such a process, they naturally got a lot of training.
For the first time, many old nobles combined what they learned with reality and became powerful for a while.
He had the capital to fight against the new power again.
But Wang Dafan couldn't bet on this possibility.
He began to encourage those whose countries were destroyed. He wanted them to destroy the current Qin together.
He came to the destroyed Qi State and found the former royal family of Qi State in front of a tomb.
A wandering prince who could only live in the cemetery and beg for food.
He shook his head and laughed:
"Poor, poor, he was once a prince of a country and the heir of the future king."
"Now he is stranded here. After a hundred years, who will remember him? He might have become a tall king?"
The poor prince looked at him and said, "Sir, are you here to ridicule me, Gongzi Hei?"
"Haha, it seems that you still want to restore the country." Wang Dafan laughed.
"Of course I want to restore the country, but I have no chance, no power, and no one now." Gongzi Hei said.
Obviously, this name was also forged by him.
"You will have it soon. Now you just need to wait for the opportunity. Sooner or later, someone will be the first to fight. Then you can contact the former noble ministers and royal family." Wang Dafan continued.
"Hey, how long do we have to wait?" Gongzi Hei sighed.
Wang Dafan didn't say anything and threw five gold cakes to him.
The ancients knew the importance and preciousness of gold very early.
In the early years, brass was also used as gold, but they still understood the scarcity of real gold.
"Okay, I'm willing to wait."
Gongzi Hei was immediately overjoyed.
Wang Dafan shook his head slightly.
Sure enough, we still have to rely on materials, this material world.
And time passed day by day.
Qin Shihuang's rule seemed to be more and more stable on the surface.
But he was always worried, is there really a reincarnated person?
Did the eunuch who made the suggestion tell the truth?
Although the other party said it was true before his death.
Yes, the eunuch who made the suggestion was killed by Qin Shihuang.
The crime was to deceive him.
That's right, seeing some signs of chaos in the world, he decisively executed the eunuch to shut others up.
But the search for the reincarnated person has never stopped.
On the contrary, he secretly set up the "Xunxian Division" and was solely responsible to him.
It can spy on the ministers' mansions and arrest people for interrogation in an emergency.
From the nine ministers of the royal family to the beggars of the common people, they are all within the emergency range.
This is obviously a monster.
Soon one day, he got good news.
"Report to your majesty, someone is secretly colluding with Lu, Chu, Zhao..."
"According to the analysis of the villain, this is obviously that the reincarnated person is afraid!"
Qin Shihuang was overjoyed when he heard this: "In other words, that person really exists?"
"Yes, he really exists."
"You didn't lie to me?"
"I dare not do this even if I die."
"Very good, tell me your analysis." Qin Shihuang said leisurely.
"First of all, we found that just last year, no one cared about the royal families of these old countries."
"It was not until His Majesty ordered to find the reincarnation that a force began to surge."
It must be said that the Qin Dynasty, under the rule of Qin Shihuang, went straight into every household.
The farming and warfare system had just reached its peak, and with no opponents, it began to collapse.
This was the beginning and peak of the feudal dynasty's control over the common people.
A Qin Dynasty, with at most tens of millions of people, could mobilize 600,000 troops.
But in later generations, a Ming Dynasty, with 100 million or even 200 million people, could not even afford 150,000 elite troops.
The maximum number of troops mobilized at one time was 130,000.
Including logistics, it was only more than 300,000.
This was already unbearable.
Obviously, in terms of logistics and control, the Qin Dynasty's system of expanding farming and warfare and rewarding military merits was more powerful.
So this Xunxiansi was able to inquire about Wang Dafan's actions.
In Wen Rensheng's opinion, Wang Dafan had done something that backfired...
In fact, the biggest problem for Qin Shihuang was whether it existed or not...
This determined whether he had the determination and how much effort he could put in.
Wang Dafan's move proved this to the other party:
The reincarnated person existed, and he was panicked by Qin Shihuang's move.
Therefore, Qin Shihuang was very happy.
So he began to increase his investment in the Xunxian Division.
And ordered a strict investigation of everyone with the same surname as the eunuch and related people.
