Chapter 55: Kyushu
After hearing the voices of the ministers, Xiao Jingyan, Mei Changsu and others all smiled, Xiao Jingyan looked at the ministers who were kneeling down and said, "All the ministers are flat." ”
"Your Majesty," the ministers shouted.
"With your support, I will definitely be able to establish an immortal Celestial Empire," Xiao Jingyan nodded, "You appease the people, prepare everything, and gather in Jinling in three months to create a prosperous era, and at the same time, when the time comes, I will pass on the cultivation method to Zhongqing, and I hope that the Celestial Empire will always have you to accompany me to eternity." ”
"The ministers obey the order, thank you, long live your majesty, long live long live." The ministers fell to their knees excitedly and shouted.
"All Aiqing are all flat, now you go and prepare." Xiao Jingyan said, "By the way, you guys will pass on a message by the way, half a year later, Langya Mountain will establish a Qilin Academy, and the dean is ......."
"The dean is Your Majesty" Mei Changsu interrupted, he nodded slightly at Xiao Jingyan, and then continued, "I and the Lord of the Lin Pavilion are vice presidents, and the academy enrolls all children between the ages of eight and fifteen, whether male or female, no matter which country they originally belong to, they can participate, if they pass the test of the Qilin Academy, they can become students of the academy, and we will devote all the resources of the world to cultivate, and after graduation, those who want to do a career and glorify their ancestors can enter the court as officials, and those who do not want to be officials can stay in the academy as teachers." ”
"This is great, what good news, the emperor's grace is immense."
Hundreds of officials were excitedly discussed, this academy is the dean of His Majesty the Emperor, and the head of the Jiangzuo League and the pavilion master of Langya Pavilion who are the same as the immortals are the vice presidents, then the students taught by this academy must be like them, and this is also dedicated to sending talents to the country, if their children and grandchildren can graduate from here, then their family will be immortal forever.
After thanksgiving, the ministers hurried away to get ready to go.
After the ministers retreated, a few people looked at the Dayu Emperor on the side, at this time he looked very lost, just now those ministers all ignored him, and no one mentioned him, now when they saw a few people looking at him, their hearts trembled, do they want to kill themselves? After all, now that he is useless, as an emperor, he knows very well that when he thinks of this, all he has left in his heart is despair.
"Zhou Qin, it's your name." Xiao Jingyan asked lightly.
Emperor Dayu, no, it should be said that the former Emperor of Dayu Zhou Qin nodded indifferently.
"Now you're given two options." Xiao Jingyan said, "One is to guard one side as an official and a hundred civil and military officials, and the other is to be a prince who doesn't care about anything, at ease, which one do you choose?" ”
"What? You won't kill me? Zhou Qin asked in disbelief, he thought that he was useless, they would kill him, but now it seemed that they obviously didn't mean that, he quickly replied, "I'll be a prince who doesn't care about anything." ”
"Then can you make me immortal?" Zhou Qin asked cautiously.
"Immortality?" Lin Chen glared and said, "You really dare to think about it."
"I can't do immortality, at most I can live a little longer, if you want to live forever, you need to work hard to cultivate, we will give you a practice, as for how long you can live, whether you can live forever depends on your own efforts." Mei Changsu said.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you, Your Majesty...... Under. Zhou Qin said gratefully, and when he said thank you, he suddenly felt that these two words were extremely awkward and ironic.
After dealing with the affairs of Dayu, several people did not delay, and then rushed to Southern Chu with the nine assassins and the former Dayu Emperor Zhou Qin.
After arriving in Southern Chu, Mei Changsu used the same method to recover Southern Chu, but at the beginning, Liu Wenyuan, the emperor of Southern Chu, was very resolute and disagreed, but after seeing the former Great Liang Emperor Zhou Qin, he was silent, and finally bowed his head and became a carefree prince.
Then Mei Changsu and they recovered the countries of Yeqin, Northern Yan, Northern Qi and Burmese, among these emperors, except for the Yeqin Emperor Wuma Zhenhai and the Burmese Emperor Shan Yu Zhanxing who chose to be officials, the others were as carefree princes as Zhou Qin.
In the sky, at this time, Mei Changsu took Xiao Jingyan, Lin Chen, Meng Zhi and Feiliu to Jinling, they had just come out of Burma, and all the countries had been subdued.
At this time, except for Mei Changsu and Feiliu, the other three were all shocked, and they couldn't come back to their senses for a long time.
"That...... Xiaoshu, let's just go around like this, and then several other countries will submit to our beam? Meng Zhi was shocked and still stammered when he spoke.
"yes, what's wrong?" Mei Changsu asked with a smile, to be honest, Mei Changsu himself felt very magical, thinking about the previous time when they were in the Red Flame Army, they fought in the south and the north, just to expand the territory to resist foreign enemies, but what the sages had not done for hundreds of years in the past, now he and others have turned around, and then it has been solved, and the several countries that were originally fighting have been unified, without sending a single soldier, without war, it is so simple to solve.
"It's nothing, it's just that it suddenly feels too simple, too easy." Meng Zhi exclaimed.
"It's easy, but it's easy because we have the strength to crush everything, we gave them what they wanted, and they also know that even if they don't agree now, it won't be long before we swallow them, and they don't have the strength to resist at all." Mei Changsu sighed, and then he said with a heavy face, "The current countries are equivalent to us in the future, and when facing the Heavenly Sect of the outside world, we don't have the slightest power to resist, so now we must not have a proud mind, and we should work harder, because maybe the big array outside will disappear that day." ”
"yes, the next is the hardest moment." Xiao Jingyan nodded and said seriously.
"Jing Yan, the busiest thing is you next, and at the same time, it has ushered in the most difficult time, there have been wars between countries, and there are grudges against each other, have you thought about how to resolve them?" Mei Changsu asked with a frown.
"That's what I intended." Xiao Jingyan said, "There is no handover between Yeqin and Southern Chu, so there is no war problem between these two countries, and I can integrate the people of these two countries together; There is also no handover between Dayu and Burmayi, they can merge; And Beiyan wants to marry our Daliang over the years, and this can be solved; As for the people of Northern Qi who dispersed them and then integrated into several other countries, after a long time, the countries should not be separated from each other and assimilated into each other. Xiao Jingyan pondered.
"Then have you ever thought about the customs and habits of the people of various countries" Mei Changsu asked, "This is a big problem, the customs of some countries are nothing in their eyes, but it is possible that in the eyes of people in other countries, it is a taboo, and it is a trivial matter to cause people to die at that time." And how to divide the territory after the integration of several countries? How to manage? How do you appoint local officials? ”
"This ......" Xiao Jingyan suddenly didn't know what to do, he thought about the problem a little simply, after Mei Changsu said this, he understood the seriousness, but for a while, he couldn't think of any good solution.
Lin Chen and Meng Zhi next to him had already automatically twisted their heads to the side and pretended not to hear after hearing the discussion between the two, especially Meng Zhi, he wanted to grab a cloud to plug his ears, he felt his head hurt just by listening to these questions, and he didn't know what these two people's heads were made of. However, seeing Mei Changsu's question again, His Majesty the Emperor was stumped, and immediately waved his hand and said, "Oh, I said Xiaoshu, your brain is the best among our people, you can tell Your Majesty if you think of any way, I feel like my head is about to explode just thinking about these questions." ”
Listening to Meng Zhi's words, Xiao Jingyan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Mei Changsu with a smile and said, "Xiaoshu, let's talk about it, if you can think of these problems, you must have already thought of a solution, so I don't have to spend so much brains." ”
"Jing Yan, I'm not your advisor now, and you're the emperor, these issues should be considered by you, but now you are throwing them to me" Mei Changsu said helplessly, and at the same time he also glared at Meng Zhi and said, "Brother Meng, you should also think about these problems, maybe you can come up with better ideas than me." ”
"I said Xiaoshu, just let me go, I have a headache just listening to your questions, and you still make me think, then you might as well kill me." Meng Zhi hurriedly clapped his hands.
"Haha...... I said Changsu, you are this life in this life, you can't escape, think about it. Lin Chen gloated on the side and said, "You see, I don't care about anything, how happy I am." ”
"You don't care, now that you are the vice president of Qilin Academy, you Langya Pavilion are well-informed, you have to help me collect the information of the world's divine doctors and those great Confucians and martial arts masters, and invite them to the academy as teachers." Mei Changsu glanced at Lin Chen and said lightly.
"What? Let me do this? Lin Chen shouted with a glare, then shook his head and waved his hand again and again, "These people who love to invite whoever they like, I won't go anyway, these people have a stinky and hard temper, so I won't provoke them." ”
"Are you sure you don't want to?"
"I'm not going to kill me?"
"The vice president didn't do it either?"
"Not anymore."
"Alas, forget it, I originally planned to take you to the mortal realm after solving this matter, since you don't even help with this, then I can't do anything." Mei Changsu shook his head and sighed, looking very sorry.
"What? Are you sure you want to take me to the mortal realm? Lin Chen suddenly rushed over and asked excitedly, he used to yearn for what Mei Changsu said, but now when he heard that Mei Changsu was going to take him, he was immediately excited, and he couldn't wait to go immediately.
"yes, but it looks like you can't go now." Mei Changsu said helplessly.
"Go, go, why can't you go." Lin Chen said with a firm attitude, "Isn't it just to invite those old guys, with my Lin Pavilion Master coming out, there is nothing that can't be invited, and you will definitely be satisfied." ”
"Didn't you say those old guys have a bad temper and a hard temper, and they won't go to kill you?" Meng Zhi suddenly asked.
"Did I say that? How did I not know? Besides, their bad temper is against people like you, and if I go, they're not welcome. Lin Chen waved his hand and said, completely deniing that he had just said this.
Meng Zhi on the side of "......" was directly speechless to Lin Chen. And Mei Changsu and Xiao Jingyan looked at each other and smiled.
"Okay, Jing Yan, let me tell you my opinion first." Mei Changsu said seriously, "If you have customs and habits, you can't think about erasing them, it's better to be sparse than blocked, you should respect them, but some bad customs let them change, even if they can't change it now, they can do it slowly, provided that it doesn't affect the normal life of the people; If the officials are assigned, let them manage their own people, implement the election, and the respected ones will be officials, and you will have to investigate and evaluate them regularly in the future, continue to perform well, and those who perform badly will be dismissed and re-elected; As for the geographical division, because the other countries are integrated, the territory is very large, which can be followed by the sages, divided into Kyushu, and then each state is divided into four domains, a total of thirty-six domains, and then each domain is divided into ......"
Along the way, Mei Changsu told Xiao Jingyan all the questions he could think of, and also put forward some opinions on those questions, and when these big questions were finished, they also arrived in Jinling.
Back in the palace, Mei Changsu said, "Jing Yan, I just said some general things just now, you can discuss the specific details carefully with the ministers, and you will leave the affairs of the academy to me and Lin Chen." ”
"Okay, I'll leave these to me, and the academy will ask you and the Lin Pavilion Master." Xiao Jingyan nodded.
"Leave it to us, and you can rest assured." Mei Changsu smiled and nodded, "By the way, is Aunt Jing in the palace?" I haven't been with her properly since I came back. ”
"Mother is still in your Su house." Xiao Jingyan smiled and said, "She said that the layout of your Su Mansion is elegant, the scenery is beautiful, she lives in a clean place, and you still have so many medical books, she just watched it." ”
"Yes, too." Mei Changsu smiled, and then smiled at Xiao Jingyan and Meng Zhi, "Then I'll go to Su's house first." After speaking, Mei Changsu took Lin Chen and Fei and left.
After arriving at Su's house, Mei Changsu stayed for a day, and then left with Lin Chen and Feiliu, and when he passed through Langya Pavilion, he sent Lin Chen down and asked him to invite those great Confucian doctors, and then he took Feiliu to the north, where Nihuang disappeared, he wanted to go there to see if there could be any other discoveries, and by the way, it was time to solve the aura problem on this side of the Liang world.
