Mythical Qin: I, Gao Yao, will never be a eunuch!

Chapter 170: It’s a lie. Let Gongzi Gao get on board first!

Nobles, and they are nobles from the six countries, and there must be many or even a lot of people involved in this matter, otherwise it would be absolutely impossible to achieve this level,

"It seems that the young master has understood."

Gao Yao looked at Gongzi Gao's expression and realized that he had guessed the result but was just unwilling to believe it.

"This... Gao Yao, you..."

"Sir, the world is bustling with people because of profit, and the world is bustling with people because of profit!"

Listening to Gao Yao's words, Gongzi Gao's face turned very ugly. If all this was true, then this matter would be very troublesome.

"Since General Gao Yao knew about this, why didn't he report it to the Emperor?"

"Sir, let alone me, even if it was you, could you convince His Majesty? Moreover, there are so many people involved in this matter, it is not something that can be done by just one or two people. And it is definitely not just Minzhong and Jiujiang that are in this situation. How many counties in the world do not have similar situations?"

Gao Yao's words were indeed sincere. Many people judged Qin Shihuang's methods of dealing with the nobles of the six countries from a historical perspective. Some people thought it was too much, while others thought it was too light.

But the actual situation is that Qin Shi Huang was also helpless to a great extent. The nobles of these six countries were related to too many people, many of whom were famous people among the Hundred Schools of Thought. He kept these nobles alive not because he did not dare to take action, but because he needed to keep these people alive so that the people of the six countries could see and live in peace, knowing that the Qin Dynasty was not really going to kill all the people of the six countries.

The reason why they wanted to suppress the nobles of the six countries and start to take action against their rights, official positions, and even property was, on the one hand, to weaken the power of these nobles, and on the other hand, it was because the nobles of the six countries had caused trouble themselves.

Qin Shi Huang encountered assassinations by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms during several of his tours. It was not just Qin Shi Huang himself, but even Li Si, Meng Tian and other ministers in the court had encountered assassinations by the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. These assassinations more or less involved the remnants of the nobles of the Six Kingdoms. If this was not weakened, it would really be a pain for himself.

In fact, there was nothing wrong with what Qin Shihuang did. He just had to do this at a specific time. However, the remnants of the six kingdoms were almost all the original vested interests. Their interests were damaged, so naturally they were unwilling to give up. How could they give up?

"But what does this have to do with General Gao Yao insisting that I come to the Southern Territory?"

Qin Shi Huang might not listen to Gao Yao's words. Although Gongzi Gao knew it was the truth, he was still a little dissatisfied. Gao Yao could already sense this from his tone.

"Please don't blame me, sir. I know that what I said is indeed presumptuous, but sir, I said this for the sake of Daqin. I want to fight for Daqin in the future."

"Give it a try?"

Hearing what Gao Yao said, Gongzi Gao didn't quite understand at first.

"That's right, sir. There are only three ways to break the impasse now. The first is to enfeoff the princes. The originally merged world will once again exist in the form of vassal states, and grant fiefs to the nobles of the six countries. This method actually solves the problem from the root to a certain extent. Once it becomes a vassal state, then Daqin will inevitably no longer be the primary target of these vassal states. The vassal states must also give priority to themselves, and then consider the world."

"By then, they will all belong to our Great Qin in name, but in reality they will all be secretly harboring dissatisfaction. However, this will allow us to avoid the current situation and keep the world stable for a long period of time. In name, they will have to respect Great Qin and pay tribute, but there are also disadvantages. On the one hand, the vassal states will inevitably become ambitious as they develop on their own, which will inevitably lead to disasters in the future. On the other hand, the vassal states may join forces to fight against Great Qin at any time."

"Oh, yes, General Gao Yao is right, but I am worried about this."

Listening to Gao Yao's speech, Prince Gao had to admit that, as Feng Quji said, Gao Yao's foresight was far beyond the reach of ordinary people. He seemed to be talking about the drawbacks of the feudal system, but in fact he was alluding to the most likely course of action for Fusu after he ascended the throne.

"Secondly, the solution is to be able to gradually implement the action of meritocracy in each county, recruit more talents in an exceptional way, no longer just stick to one aspect, but the right people to do the right things, and slowly radiate to the counties all over the world with the old Qin as the benchmark. In this way, the money and power in the hands of the nobles can be decomposed and softened without making a sound. On the one hand, the upper level can increase the appeasement of the nobles of the six countries and reward them, and on the other hand, the other side's property and power can be secretly decomposed and cut off. Two-pronged approach, but I am insignificant and my words are not taken seriously by Your Majesty."

Listening to Gao Yao's words, Gongzi Gao's face became even uglier. Not to mention Gao Yao, even if it was him, Qin Shi Huang might not listen to him. Now Qin Shi Huang was basically completely immersed in the way of elixirs, and his health was getting worse day by day. He even summoned court officials less and less. This was the biggest problem.

Gongzi Gao thought Gao Yao's idea was very good, but there were some things that he didn't have the final say on. Only Qin Shi Huang had the final say. However, Qin Shi Huang at this time often couldn't stand bad words. Anyone who dared to say such words would lose half his head.

"General Gao Yao, what is your last point?"

Listening to Gongzi Gao's active questioning, Gao Yao also showed a satisfied smile, which showed that the other party had begun to believe and fell into the trap. Gao Yao had no way to forcibly detain Gongzi Gao. Since the other party came to the southern border, he was naturally not afraid of Gao Yao's action. Once he took action, Gao Yao's rebellion would be confirmed. Gao Yao would naturally not do such a stupid thing.

"That's why I invited you to stay in the southern border temporarily, just in case. If rebellions break out in the world, I am willing to assist you and rebuild the glory of the Qin Dynasty. Although the southern border is biased, it also has natural advantages. First of all, it is a place that is easy to defend but difficult to attack, which is also a natural advantage. If I am really worried, you can just treat it as a trip to the southern border. If I am unfortunate enough to be right, then you, my dear, will be a guarantee for the Qin Dynasty."

"As for the reason for choosing you, it's actually very simple. This matter definitely requires a young master with a stable mind who can see the situation clearly. Only you can meet Gao Yao's requirements!"
