Chapter 1470: Thundering Emperor Dynasty Zhizheng Emperor!
Ten Thousand Thunder City, the capital of the Thundering Dynasty.
Even in this Nandou Empire, which is called wild by other regions, this Ten Thousand Thunder City is also an incomparably prosperous city.
Of course, it can't be compared with the imperial capital of the Nandou Empire, but if you say that in the entire Nandou Empire, the Ten Thousand Thunder City of the Thundering Dynasty can definitely rank among the top three in terms of its prosperity.
There is no other reason, it is because of this Thundering Dynasty, but it is the most powerful dynasty in the entire Nandou Empire, with the strongest national strength and the most prosperous economy.
This is all thanks to the majesty and strategy of the current emperor of the Thundering Dynasty, and his superb statecraft.
While other dynasties were still maintaining the feudal system, the Thundering Dynasty had already completed the unification of the whole country.
After the unification of the Thundering Dynasty, the centralization of power has been greatly strengthened, the military and the government are integrated, and after the unification of the military and the government, the standards of all fields of the country have also been unified, and the most important thing is the unity of thought.
After decades of development, the loyalty of the people of the Thundering Dynasty to the Thundering Family is no less than the loyalty to the Nandou Empire.
Even, if the Nandou Emperor launched a war against the Thundering Dynasty, the people of the Thundering Dynasty would inevitably take up arms to confront the Nandou Empire.
This series of reforms of the Thundering Dynasty is very similar to Qin Shi Huang's unification of the six kingdoms on the earth, but the difference is that this is the world of cultivation.
You must know that cultivators have great autonomy, and it is extremely unlikely that they want cultivators to be absolutely loyal to themselves, but the current emperor of the Thundering Dynasty has done it.
From this point of view, this Thundering Emperor is even greater than Qin Shi Huang on earth.
However, Emperor Thundering always has a thorn in his heart, and he is not unhappy.
And this thorn is undoubtedly the country within the country of the Thundering Dynasty, the country of Shanyang.
When Emperor Zhizheng was still the prince of the current Thundering Dynasty, he was determined to unify the Thundering Dynasty, because he saw all kinds of disadvantages of the feudal territory of the territories, especially the mutual attacks between the vassal states, which brought misery to the world, which made this prince who had the world in mind very heartbroken.
In the world of cultivation, the natural law of the jungle has been brought into full play, and in this case, as a cultivator with extraordinary talent, Emperor Zhizheng should not have such thoughts.
Moreover, this Emperor Zhizheng is definitely not an absolute person, and he will never be merciful when dealing with his enemies.
What's more, in the struggle for imperial power, he also killed several of his brothers, and finally got the right to inherit the throne.
The first decree issued by Emperor Zhizheng, who succeeded to the throne, was to cut down the feudal domain!
However, compared to those emperors on the earth, the way Emperor Zhizheng cut the feudal domain was obviously more simple and rude.
When the decree on cutting the feudal domain was issued, he demanded that within three days, all vassal states in the territory of the Thundering Dynasty must give a reply, and those who did not reply or replied for more than three days had only one word, kill!
Three days later, only three vassal states of the entire Thundering Dynasty handed over their apprentices and authority, and the remaining dozens of vassal states either waited to defend their territories, or hesitated to wait and see.
However, what everyone didn't expect was that when the time of three days came, Emperor Zhizheng of the Thundering Dynasty, who was sitting on the throne without waiting for all the replies, actually disappeared directly.
After a few disappeared, news from all over the dynasty fell like snowflakes to Wanlei City.
Every piece of news represents the fall of the lord of the vassal state.
In this way, within one day, the emperors of dozens of vassal states of the Thundering Dynasty were all killed, and four of them were even emperors.
When the news came, the entire Ten Thousand Thunder City was shocked.
This kind of iron-blooded method has never happened in the history of the Nandou Empire.
Even in the history of the Divine Domain, such a thing had never happened.
Killing dozens of lords in a few hours is almost against the people of the entire dynasty!
Some people in this situation are even waiting to see the scene that Emperor Zhizheng endures the thousand husbands pointed to.
Even the envoys of various countries who came to participate in the enthronement ceremony of the new emperor of the Thundering Dynasty were waiting to see Emperor Zhizheng's jokes.
However, what they were waiting for was the map and the state seal sent by the principals of the vassal states.
And these maps and national seals immediately became a gift for the new emperor to ascend the throne.
After the new emperor ascended the throne, he was banned for three days, and he completed the unification of the dynasty by himself, which shocked the envoys of those countries one by one, and even sent chills down their spines.
Emperor Zhizheng did this, wasn't he afraid that Emperor Nandou would be angry?
Obviously, the Southern Dipper Emperor has become everyone's last hope, and those who do not want the unification of the Thundering Dynasty are waiting for the Emperor's wrath.
But to their disappointment, knowing that the new emperor's enthronement ceremony was over, they did not wait for the emperor's anger, but waited for the gift of the Nandou Emperor.
In order to encourage and reward Emperor Zhizheng, Emperor Nandou even sent him a Daoyuan Pill.
Dao Source Pill, an elixir that can help the emperor realize the Dao, is something that can be encountered but not sought, because there is only one person in the entire Divine Domain who can refine this elixir, and that person has been missing for an unknown number of years.
In other words, the Dao Yuan Pill will disappear when it is used for one.
The Southern Dipper Emperor actually rewarded a Daoyuan Pill just to reward Emperor Zhizheng, which shows the recognition of Emperor Zhizheng by the Southern Dipper.
Since then, no one has dared to make irresponsible remarks about Emperor Zhizheng and the Thundering Dynasty.
With the support of the Southern Dipper Emperor, the implementation of the decree of the Thundering Dynasty was quite smooth, and for a month, all the territories of the vassal states were disrupted, the administrative regions were redivided, and the county system was directly implemented.
He even reformed the system of appointment and dismissal of officials, from the recommendation of the previous family to the selection of martial arts.
He even gave ordinary people the opportunity to participate in the management of the country, and set up some advanced ways for ordinary people.
I have to say that Emperor Zhizheng is definitely a wonder in the entire cultivation world.
If Zhao Yan understood the reform of Emperor Zhizheng, he would definitely be amazed, this guy is simply a combination of Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Yang of Sui.
After the unification, the Thundering Dynasty was politically harmonious and the national strength was constantly improving, and some surrounding countries no longer dared to provoke in front of the Thundering Dynasty, and they all rushed to make friends with the Thundering Dynasty.
They were afraid that they would accidentally offend the Thundering Dynasty at some point, and the emperor gave an order, and the military and people of the whole country had a voice, just two calls were enough for them to drink a pot.
The Thundering Dynasty, which has developed in this way for decades, is unprecedentedly strong, and many countries are terrified because they are afraid.
Even those countries that are friendly with the Thundering Dynasty are very jealous.
After all, in the face of national interests, there are no eternal friends, only eternal enemies, even if they are under the command of the Nandou Empire.
But what is strange is that the Thundering Dynasty, which is strong enough to crush all the surrounding dynasties, has never invaded other countries.
So some people speculated that the Thundering Dynasty did not dare.
At the beginning, Emperor Zhizheng used iron-blooded means to join the dynasty, the means could not be described as cruel, and the scene could not be described as bloody, and in such a situation, Emperor Nandou chose to turn a blind eye, but this also sounded the alarm for Emperor Zhizheng.
That is: within your Thundering Dynasty, you can do whatever you want, if it is beyond the Thundering Dynasty, you can try!
People's speculation is not unfounded, and Shanyang Kingdom is the best proof of this.
Although the vast majority of people have forgotten the origin of Shanyang Kingdom, some old antiques still have some impressions, and they seem to remember that the Nandou Emperor seems to be surnamed Shanyang.
And as the emperor of the Thundering Dynasty, even if Emperor Zhizheng didn't know, he should have heard of it, and the Shanyang Kingdom must have some kind of connection with the Great Emperor.
Therefore, when all the vassal states in the territory of the Thundering Dynasty were subdued, the Shanyang Kingdom was left alone.
Externally, the reason given by the people of the Thundering Dynasty is that Emperor Zhizheng and the Lord of Shanyang are brothers in life and death, and the two have true feelings.
It's not credible in front of this, but it's a fact.
When Emperor Zhizheng and the lord of Shanyang were young, they were indeed a pair of good brothers.
The two have known each other since childhood, practiced together, and have long formed a deep friendship.
It's just that due to talent and exercises, the lord of Shanyang was gradually distanced, and it wasn't until Emperor Zhizheng was proclaimed emperor that the two really broke off contact.
It wasn't until more than 20 years ago that Emperor Zhizheng sent an envoy to Shanyang Kingdom to propose marriage with Prince Leiming, which left the relationship between the two for many years and picked it up anew.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see what Emperor Zhizheng's big idea is.
There is only one daughter under the knee of the lord of the Sanyang Kingdom, and according to the tradition of the Sanyang Kingdom, a woman cannot inherit the position of the lord of the country.
Then when the lord of Shanyang dies, the prince of Leiming will have the opportunity to inherit the position of the lord of the country.
At that time, wouldn't the Shanyang Kingdom naturally become the land of the Thundering Dynasty?
At that time, Emperor Zhizheng took back the apprenticeship and authority in his son's hands, and the emperor had no reason to sanction him, right?
However, just as he was waiting for the marriage of Prince Thundering and Shanyang Xiaoxiao, an accident happened.
That Shanyang Xiaoxiao actually colluded with outsiders to calculate the Tianjiao of the Ao family in the Central Domain, and his son Prince Leiming was actually implicated.
This incident made Emperor Zhizheng very angry, a wise Emperor Zhizheng, actually made a stupid decision to incite the elder of the Shanyang family to depose the lord of Shanyang, and then he chose to be the yellow bird behind him and directly annexed the Shanyang Kingdom.
He seemed to have forgotten the Emperor's warnings and did such a thing regardless of it.
In fact, after doing this, he was still a little afraid, he was afraid that the emperor would really be angry.
But to his surprise, even if the lord of Shanyang Kingdom fell, the Great Emperor did not appear, which strengthened his will even more and the Shanyang Kingdom should be destroyed.
But what he never expected was that Shanyang Xiaoxiao, who was poisoned and hunted down, didn't die, and found the Nandou Emperor!
He didn't know what was waiting for him next!
