All Heavens: Start with a Heavenly Dao Building

To help Ying Zheng solve the problem of talent shortage, Chen Qilin did not ask the system, he had his own method.

When Ying Zheng, Fusu, and Li Si heard this, they were all stunned!

Learn from King Zhou of Shang?

Isn't he a fatuous tyrant whose country was destroyed?

What’s there to learn?

"Sir, King Zhou is a mediocre tyrant in ancient times. Why should I imitate him?"

Ying Zheng came back to his senses and asked in confusion: "Sir, does King Zhou surpass me, Da Qin, and me in the way of employing people?"

Ying Zheng still had something he didn't say in his heart: Sir, do you want me to be that stupid king who subjugates the country? !

Fusu and Li Si also nodded with deep understanding.

Chen Qilin looked at the three of them with a look of disdain on his lips:

"Your Majesty, do you really think King Zhou, Emperor Xin, is a fatuous tyrant? There is nothing to learn from him?"

Chen Qilin had been quite curious about the Shang Dynasty, especially King Zhou, and had consulted a lot of information, thus gaining a new understanding of King Zhou.

The real Emperor Xin was definitely not King Zhou in the Zhou Dynasty history books!

If Chen Qilin wants Ying Zheng to accept his point of view, he must first correct his prejudice against Di Xin!

Hearing this, Ying Zheng nodded.

Fusu and Li Si also thought so: King Zhou was a foolish and unprincipled tyrant!

Chen Qilin said: "What a stupid tyrant! King Zhou is the ancient human emperor, with great talents and great strategies!"

"Sir, King Zhou is recorded in the history books:

He loves women, dotes on Daji, and listens to women’s words;

Kill loyal ministers such as Bi Gan, and use villains more important;

Disrespecting heaven and blaspheming the gods;

Wine ponds, meat forests, extravagance and lust...

In the end, the unruly Yin Shang were destroyed by Zhou!

So King Zhou is not a fatuous tyrant, or what? "

Ying Zheng recounted the contents of the historical materials he had read in detail.

One crime after another was pinned on King Zhou's head.

Chen Qilin stood up tall, took a puff of his cigar, blew out a smoke ring, and said:

"Successful kings and defeated bandits, the so-called historical materials you see are nothing but family stories written by the victors of the Western Zhou Dynasty to praise themselves, put money on their faces, and attack their opponents.

After a rebellious boy takes over the world on Monday, do you think he will record the real King Zhou as a wise, mighty, talented and strategic king in the annals of history?

It is better to have no books than to believe in books! "

Ying Zheng and others fell into thinking.

Chen Qilin continued:

"Which of the kings in the past dynasties is not fond of women? Which one is not the seventy-two concubines of the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, and can grab a lot of women?

If we deny King Zhou and Di Xin based on this alone, then there will be no heroic heroes in this world! "

"The so-called Emperor Xin favored Daji. Is it wrong to favor his own concubine? Which emperor doesn't have a favored woman?"

"As for the wine pond and the meat forest, it is a complete lie made up to discredit King Zhou.

Let’s talk about the meat forest first. The meat is hung up to make a meat forest. If the meat is not smoked to death, it will stink if it is hung for a few days. Even bacon does not smell good!

Who would lie down in a forest of flesh and have fun and smell that smell?

This scene is simply unimaginable...

Emperor Xin was strong-blooded, powerful in martial arts, capable of handling fierce beasts, and was extremely brave. He was also eloquent and fluent in music!

I wonder if Di Xin, a noble and elegant person who is good at both civil and military arts and is proficient in music, would have the perverted hobby of having fun in a pile of smelly meat?

Let’s talk about the wine pool. Everyone knows that wine needs to be sealed and stored. If it is opened and left for a long time, the wine will be bland and tasteless. Who would be stupid enough to pour the wine into the pool and turn it into water?

What kind of drinker can make a wine pool? What a waste of natural resources!

The Western Zhou Dynasty made up lies about Black Emperor Xin, but he didn’t even make up a decent one! "

Ying Zheng, Fusu, and Li Si fell silent again!

Chen Qilin continued:

"As for listening to women, this is indeed true. Emperor Zhou, Emperor Xin, will indeed listen to women.

In the Shang Dynasty, women could go to the battlefield just like men.

When Emperor Xin went to war, he took female warriors to the battlefield.

This was traditional in the Shang Dynasty.

The most famous among them is the queen Fu Hao of Shang Wang Wuding, the ancestor of King Zhou.

She is the first documented female military commander in history (oracle) and an outstanding female politician.

In Wu Ding's series of wars against neighboring countries and tribes, Fu Hao was ordered to recruit soldiers on behalf of the Shang king many times, and served as a general to fight on the battlefield many times.

She once led 13,000 troops to attack the Qiang side and captured a large number of Qiang people. She became the general who led the most troops in one campaign during Wu Ding's reign...

What is this called?

This is called equality between men and women. Women also have half the sky. This is called using talents in an eclectic way.

Talk about reusing villains.

What is a villain?

A villain is a person with a humble status, such as a slave.

Ti Xin reformed the slavery system:

The system of slave burial was abolished, some talented slaves were promoted to join the army and given official positions.

Daji was a slave captured by Emperor Xin when he conquered the Su tribe, but he was made a concubine. This shows how radical Emperor Xin's slavery system was.

These are all Di Xin, promoting and using talents in an eclectic way!

Let capable people occupy their positions, instead of looking down on them because of their humble background and continue to use the hereditary system of official positions and nobles!

This is a true meritocratic move that breaks class stereotypes and will be of great benefit to the country!

If future generations of kings do this, will there still be a shortage of talents? "

Ying Zheng and Fu Su didn't speak, and their expressions of thought deepened.

Chen Qilin ignored them and continued to talk eloquently:

"Besides, Emperor Xin killed his loyal minister Bigan and expelled the villain!"

"Are Bigan and Weizi loyal and wise ministers? They are the wise and loyal ministers of the Western Zhou Dynasty, and the traitors of the Shang Dynasty!"

"Who are Bigan and Weizi?

One is King Zhou's uncle, who failed to compete with his father for the throne, and the other is King Zhou's brother, who failed to compete with Emperor Xin for the throne.

King Zhou reformed slavery and made special use of talented slaves (there is no way, you nobles can't do it), which will definitely pry open the existing interests of the aristocratic class such as Weizi and Bigan, causing their resentment and strong opposition!

Even Weizi and Bigan want to unite with other princes such as the Zhou people to overthrow King Zhou's rule, restore the old traditions, and protect their original interests!

Is it wrong for Emperor Xin to kill the traitor Bigan and exile Weizi?

Could it be that these traitors are served with high positions, generous salaries, and good food and drink?"

Chen Qilin couldn't stop at all, and continued :

"The so-called disrespect for heaven, disrespect for gods, and slackness in sacrifice.

The sacrifices of Xia, Shang and Zhou dynasties were made by using living people and livestock!

The reason why King Zhou of Shang was slack in sacrifice was because he could not bear to see living people being used for sacrifice. If such sacrifices were popular, the population would definitely decrease, and it was too cruel!

So King Zhou finally abolished the use of slaves for sacrifice and broke the ancestral system, which was scolded by those nobles as slackness in sacrifice!"

"Disrespect for heaven, disrespect for gods?

King Zhou Di Xin only believed: Man can conquer nature!

The illusory gods should not be above all living beings, let alone above the imperial power!

So Di Xin was against gods, and later generations were blessed, and their thoughts were not bound or imprisoned by theology...

Otherwise, the emperors of the dynasties after the Shang Dynasty had to accept the coronation of the spokespersons of gods in the world before they could ascend the throne..."

Chen Qilin's words greatly changed the views of Ying Zheng, Fusu and others on King Zhou Di Xin.

It turns out that Di Xin is so great! ! !

At the same time, Ying Zheng also had new inspiration on how to solve the problem of Qin's lack of talent.

Li Si stood up and expressed his doubts:

"Sir, since King Zhou was so wise and brave, and had great talent and strategy, didn't he know that Xiqi would rebel? Why did the Shang Dynasty still be destroyed by Xiqi?"

The third update, thank you for your support!
