Chapter 54 Starting today, the old law will be abolished!

Therefore, the military generals watched the situation from the sidelines, and the civil officials influenced by the Meng family also chose to remain silent after Meng Yi spoke.

Only the old-school princes and nobles who were related to the royal family by blood were still stubbornly insisting on opposing the right of common people to receive education.

In essence, it has blocked the path for the common people to move up.

To this end, Meng Yi vowed to debate with many scholars and even to break off relations with royal nobles in order to stick to his position.

This move completely confused everyone.

Just as everyone was discussing the feasibility of the policy implementation, someone else pointed out that two practical problems needed to be solved: food and written communication.

Before Ying Heng spoke, Meng Yi stepped forward again to support the Thirteenth Young Master.

"You may not know that my wise and powerful Thirteenth Prince had already foreseen these problems and has already properly resolved them."

Meng Yi's words were powerful.

"He had earlier invented a new type of paper that was cheap, flexible, and portable enough for common people to use."

"If it weren't for the Thirteenth Young Master's foresight, I'm afraid that our Great Qin would have already fallen into trouble."

"You are nothing but mediocre people who indulge in wine and women. Even if you put yourselves together, you are not as powerful as the Thirteenth Young Master!"

Meng Yi denounced him harshly with great momentum.

"There is no need to discuss these matters any further. We just need to follow the decision of the Thirteenth Prince. He will lead us to build a more powerful Qin!"

"All you have to do is sit back and enjoy the fruits of the labor, and wait for the Thirteenth Young Master's glorious achievements. You are a bunch of lucky bastards!"

After Meng Yi's barrage of criticism, the entire audience was speechless.

And those royal nobles who still insisted on their own opinions were completely silenced by Ying Heng's next words.

"The Imperial Guards recently verified that some royal nobles were corrupt and violated Qin laws."

"Today is a good opportunity to deal with it all at once."

Ying Heng said coldly.

“For those who support the new policy, they can be punished according to the new law, with only one to three years’ salary deducted.”

"As for those who stubbornly oppose the new policy, they will be severely punished according to the current Qin law, beheaded, and have their property confiscated!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the voices of opposition disappeared instantly.

Under the silent gaze of the ministers, Ying Heng made a solemn declaration on the stage.

"From today on, the Qin Empire will abolish the old laws and implement new ones!"

At this moment, although all the civil and military officials in the court were silent, they all knew deep down in their hearts that the era of the First Emperor, who once unified the world and dominated the world, was long gone.

At this moment, the new Qin era led by the Thirteenth Prince is quietly beginning.

At this moment, some people are happy, some are worried, and some are confused and lost.

As for the group of Qin Shi Huang's royal family relatives, they felt a chill running through their bones.

As the court meeting came to an end, Ying Heng announced several decisions in succession.

"Established Xianyang Academy and invited scholars from all schools of thought to come and teach and answer questions."

"Establish a Ministry of Industry, recruit skilled craftsmen, and carry out work such as papermaking, improving agricultural tools, and making ice cubes in the name of the court."

“The Ministry of Commerce was established to work in conjunction with the Ministry of Industry to ensure that products such as paper, farm tools, and ice manufactured by the court were supplied to the market at affordable prices.”

In the future, Yingheng is more interested in letting the government get involved in the salt industry, coal mining, iron casting, cement brick and tile production and other fields.

After these industries have been fully developed and their economic foundations have stabilized, they will gradually shift from government-run to privately-owned.

After the meeting, Ying Heng specially invited Wang Ben to leave with him, claiming that he wanted to give him a surprise.

As for the series of unexpected events at today's court meeting, the secret guards of the Black Ice Platform did not dare to hide anything and quickly rushed to the secret room to report the details to the First Emperor.

In the secret room, for the past ten days, Qin Shi Huang had not asked about other matters except whether Fusu had returned.

However, before noon today, when he saw the secret guards rushing towards him, the First Emperor knew that something big was going to happen.

The secret guard reported everything that happened in the morning court in detail.

"Meng Yi rebuked all the civil servants present and finally expressed his loyalty to the Thirteenth Prince." "The Thirteenth Prince ordered the establishment of the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Commerce."

"The Thirteenth Prince issued a warning to the First Emperor's royal family and relatives, telling them to either obey his orders or face a life-or-death decision."

"The Thirteenth Prince resolutely decided to abolish the Qin Law and implement a new policy!"

boom!
The case fell apart in an instant.

The First Emperor was furious.

Meng Yi, a close and trusted minister around him, has already betrayed him.

My royal family members are all facing life and death threats.

The laws I established myself have been thrown away!
Could it be that if I could return alive, I would also suffer the fate of being abandoned? !

There was rage burning in the eyes of the First Emperor, but he said nothing.

Instead, he took advantage of this moment of indignation, closed his eyes, and concentrated on cultivation.

The Meng family has rebelled, and he only has the Wang family's military force to rely on. He doesn't have much time left.

Rumble!
Several major barriers in the body were broken through one after another.

The true energy surged like a river, and the Qin Shi Huang's cultivation level was approaching the level of a half-step grandmaster!
Just one step away from becoming a grandmaster, thus extending your life by five years!
A hint of joy flashed across the eyes of the leader of the Black Ice Platform.

"Your Majesty, your cultivation progress is so rapid, it is rare!"

"It often only takes one opportunity to go from a half-step grandmaster to a grandmaster."

"Maybe next time..."

The First Emperor glanced at him coldly, knowing what he had not yet said.

Are you trying to say that the next time I get furious, I might be able to break through?

"Humph, no matter how fast I am, I can't catch up with the speed of that thirteenth rebellious son usurping power!"

"If I can't break through, I'm afraid there's no need to use this formation anymore."

"The Qin Empire at that time was no longer the empire I built with my own hands. What would be the point of my return?"

At this moment, Ying Zheng had completely lost hope in Fusu.

Even if Fusu returned, he would be powerless to save the situation.

Only the First Emperor himself could turn the tide and save the Qin Dynasty from danger.

At the same time, after Ying Heng retired from court, he took Wang Ben back to the eastern suburbs.

On the way, he no longer had any intention of hiding...

"Old Prince, I think you have a good idea of ​​the current situation of the imperial court."

"It can be said that within the Great Qin territory, except for the military power, almost all other powers are in my hands."

"Even if Su Fu returns now, what kind of trouble can he cause?"

Although Wang Ben is straightforward in character, he is not stupid. Although he is not involved in the matter, he can see through it clearly.

At this moment, he sighed.

"I deeply admire the Thirteenth Young Master's ability."

"Unless God sends another genius to our world, no one can shake the situation now."

Ying Heng responded with a smile.

"Since you understand everything, why don't we make a deal?"

"I have some equipment here. Once your cavalry is equipped with it, its combat effectiveness can be doubled. In exchange, you and the army controlled by the Wang family will obey my orders. What do you think?"

Wang Ben was mentally prepared for this, but he didn't expect Ying Heng to wait until this time to make this request.

He originally thought that Ying Heng might give him the secret method of making salt in exchange for his loyalty, but he did not expect that there was another mystery.
