Between the end of June and the twenty-one days of mid-July, the number of small nobles in Xianyang City decreased by about 20%.

On the contrary, there were a group of bankrupt intellectuals in the city.

These people are penniless and some even owe large extra debts.

The pain that people can hear and see seems to be concentrated all of a sudden.

Although the grain harvest was achieved, the farmers of the Farmers' Association felt that they had no worries about food and clothing, and even had time to go to the family to make an appointment outside the city to have fun.

But there were many people in the city crying and wailing.

Some bankrupt people wandered away from their old friends' mansions with their families, while others gathered at the main entrance of the palace and shouted and scolded all day long.

At the end of July, Ying Zheng was assassinated several times.

But he was not seriously injured.

On the contrary, some young nobles who were on the verge of bankruptcy were found to have had sex with the assassin by the great nobles on the day Ying Zheng was assassinated.

A little storm.

In this storm, there are wailing and eating.

The great nobles are now more nervous about Ying Zheng's safety than anyone else.

They worked hard to help Ying Zheng check various safety hazards and help clear out various dangerous people in the city.

After pursuing for several days, a total of more than a dozen young nobles were involved.

These are families that fail or are about to fail in this struggle and fall into bankruptcy.

They encountered failures in the competition brought by this local system reform and the "Exploitation Sutra". Instead of gaining any benefits, they lost the glory and wealth they enjoyed in the past, and their lives became hard and helpless, in contrast to the luxury of the past, and anger grew from the bottom of their hearts.

They began to hate Ying Zheng.

And he began to resent Ju Zizhou.

So they planned the assassination.

The first person to be assassinated was of course Ying Zheng, the King of Qin who took the initiative to launch changes.

If Ying Zheng hadn't caused trouble, even though these nobles would not have the ownership of the land, they would at least have no worries for the rest of their lives.

But it was Ying Zheng who wanted to change that those of them would be swallowed up and exploited, and would soon fall into poverty.

So all the mistakes lie in Ying Zheng!

It was not unreasonable for them to plan to assassinate Ying Zheng.

After the great nobles found out these, they handed the people to Ying Zheng.

After lunch break, Ying Zheng took the time to look at them. He listened to the insults of these people and looked at them kneeling on the ground and begging for mercy. His eyes were calm.

He had no mercy on the suffering in front of him.

He had seen similar crying sounds in the heavy rain in the autumn when he first entered Qin State.

That is the cry of the people in the farmer's association today.

At that time, heavy rain poured down and houses collapsed. The unclothed woman held the child trembling due to the cold and sat in front of the ruins, wet in the rain, snuggled up, and the rain flowed across her eyes and face.

They were numb.

There are not many wailings and crying, like the silent image in the painting.

The suffering and crying at that time were almost silent.

And what was in front of me was a wailing like a drum.

Compared with the two, Ying Zheng felt that the suffering five years ago seemed to be more touching.

"You can scold me or kill me..." Ying Zheng squatted down and looked at the nobles in the cell: "But you join the game yourself!"

"If you win, you will not be grateful to me, nor will you share the land and wealth you have won to me; but if you lose, why do you want to kill me?"

Ying Zheng shook his head: "Compared with those people I have seen who have been exploited, where are you here?"

Those who have always been exploited are actually quiet, accustomed to all kinds of unfairness, and tell themselves: people are divided into different levels, and the world is so unfair.

They accept it all.

On the contrary, these people who have always exploited others only lose the wealth and privileges obtained by exploitation, and become murderous and unacceptable.

So fun!

Ying Zheng thought for a while and said, "You could have been my friends!"

In "Handan Jikai", Ju Zizhou once described the bankrupt You family's small nobles in the Zhao State.

These people failed in the struggle to inherit the property of their parents, or their family property was occupied by the great nobles, and thus lost the means of production on which they depended for their survival, and became in a state of nobility that was the same as the poor who had no means of production.

They may blame others, and may find ways to restore their old glory, but in the end, they will be treated unfairly, so they will feel resentful in their hearts.

In the future social form shaping, these people may be more inclined to the old form and want to restore their status as superiors, but their attitudes towards the great nobles and the great landlords are consistent with most poor people.

In other words...

Ying Zheng looked at these people.

In the short term, these people are consistent with the peasant association’s people’s position!

"Only punish the evil ones." Ying Zheng said calmly: "Don't blame the family. The children in their family are under ten years old and placed in the orphanage. They are over ten years old and sent to the official room to study the law. The women are sent to the peasant association. They choose good people and then marry them. The old man... takes them to repair the canal."

As he said that, Ying Zheng turned around and left.

Behind him, some crying stopped, some kowtowed to thank, and more, fear and abuse.

If you really want to investigate the assassination, it can actually involve many people.

However, Ying Zheng did not intend to start a massacre.

These down-and-out nobles have one who can be used in the future.

In this struggle, these people were defeated, but can they not want to restore their old glory?

They need a chance.

And Ying Zheng has such an opportunity in his hands - assessment!

Those who pass the assessment of the peasant association’s official administration can be officials.

Although the position of this minor official must be much worse than the previous glory of these people, do they have to choose besides this?

After walking out of prison, Ying Zheng moved towards his work today.

The sun is hot and the world is like a furnace.

A change is unfolding.

In the hot weather, people embark on this hot struggle, regardless of victory or defeat, the wheel of history rolls forward.

...

At the end of August, the big struggle gradually ended.

The little nobles were three out of ten, while the big nobles were missing two families.

Wealth is concentrated again.

During the grand court meeting, all the officials who attended the court had smiles on their faces.

Even with their scheming, they can't help but be happy.

Just like working hard and getting a good harvest, the old farmer was happy, but he couldn't help but shout: "The harvest is too hard, the weather is too hot, and the harvest is too troublesome."

However, without hard work, the crops in other people's fields were harvested and the property accumulated by others for hundreds of years was obtained, but the old farmers would not complain.

He will laugh from ear to ear!

Such a harvest may not be seen once in a lifetime!

If you meet, just be happy.

People happily saluted the young King Qin who took the crown off the throne and took it in their hands to play with it.

Now, this behavior that is not in line with the ritual system and detracts from the majesty of the King of Qin has become so cool and natural, and Ye Ye is like a god.

After showing his tribute, Ying Zheng spoke.

"Recently, Xianyang City has been quite unstable, and the country is so serious that it is so important that I am still naive and so turbulent, I am afraid that the country will be useless."
