The Qin Dynasty had a small population and also implemented corporal punishment. People with broken hands and feet lost their labor force and could only barely survive.
The system of collective responsibility has caused some innocent people to be tortured and even reduced to slaves with no human rights and to be beaten and killed at will.
"Did I do something wrong before?"
The hopeful smiles on the people's faces were completely different from the despair and numbness of the past.
It took Chu Yuening only less than a year to achieve this complete transformation.
Even though Ying Zheng was the ambitious, majestic and domineering First Emperor, he couldn't help but reveal a hint of confusion at this moment.
