Chapter 160: Material and Spiritual Two Legs
Li Lin wants to rule the river region, so whether it is the development of the economy and people's livelihood within the empire, the rapid expansion of the subordinate plane world, or the elimination of internal flaws, it is all to prepare for his ambitions.
Although he is more similar to his grandfather Li Zheng, he also has his own character and persistence, and he is a person who pursues perfection.
Such a person is harsh when he does things.
If it was in a primitive civilization, it was very likely that such an emperor would have a great estrangement and contradiction between his ministers and his ministers, and even shake the country's foundation.
It's very simple, the emperor has to be nitpicky and demanding. But the ministers below are in the minority. Naturally, the relationship between the two parties will not be so harmonious.
The emperor wanted to clean up all the tumors, while the ministers were on guard day and night, and even had the idea of overthrowing the emperor and changing to a more tolerant master.
But this does not happen in the Origin Empire.
There is only one reason, the royal family of the Origin Empire, both nominally and in reality, is the master of this empire. The royal family has such a great god as Li Zheng, and he has mastered all the transcendents, no matter who he has, no matter what he thinks, he can't make waves.
In the face of absolute power, anyone can only give in.
Moreover, what Li Lin did was completely in line with the interests of the vast number of people in the empire.
With absolute power and popular support, what can't be done?
Therefore, after Li Shanchang and Dong Zhen got the information on the list, they immediately summoned the high-level officials of the military and political courts, and convicted the people on the list according to the laws of the empire, and did not punish anyone.
After that, the list of convicted persons was quickly transmitted to the Ministry of Security.
Immediately, the Ministry of Security took action. With the assistance of Cao Cao and other three transcendents of the empire's elder rank, in just two days, all the people on the list were arrested one by one.
In the process, there were indeed resistors.
This was expected by Li Lin, but there were also unexpected circumstances. Li Lin thought earlier. It should be the generals in the army who resist arrest. In reality, however, it is the government officials.
The generals in the army hold the power of the army, and they do things to kill, and their personalities should be tough, so Li Lin has such a guess. But unexpectedly, the generals in the army were all obediently captured.
On the contrary, only those involved in government affairs are unwilling. He gathered some strong people to resist.
This may seem illogical, but when you think about it on a deeper level, it's not surprising.
The generals in the army, who have been killed in wars, understand the strength of the empire best. For the founding ruler Li Zheng, for the detached man of the empire. to know better.
And the government officials are twisted and turned. The thoughts are much more complicated, and naturally there are lucky people.
But no matter what, in just two days, all the people involved in the list were arrested. By this time, the Reich official. Only then did the matter be disclosed to the public.
As soon as the matter of purging internal discipline was made public, it immediately ignited public opinion among the people.
Not to mention the large number of people involved in this purging of flaws, just talking about a few of them at the level of a realm-level governor is amazing.
Before that, they were still beautiful. Mastering the government affairs and military affairs of a realm is a feudal official, which makes people look up. Before that, these people were quite famous among the people, and many of them praised their virtues.
However, I didn't expect that these people showed one thing, and secretly another, keeping the people in the dark!
It's a sin that deserves death!
While denouncing these sinners, the people all expressed their support for the actions of the imperial authorities, and they all expressed their respect for His Majesty the Emperor.
At the same time, when the relevant information was made public, the imperial officials began to guide public opinion again.
Gradually, the public opinion of the people was directed to the topic of moral cultivation.
And take those sinners as a lesson from the past, and warn all the military and political officials of the empire and all the common people, so that they can know the importance of moral cultivation.
Li Lin, the Son of Heaven, also made a special speech on the civilian information network, listing the high-end welfare benefits of the imperial military and political officials and generals, and wondered why they should violate the law because they have such high-end treatment and enjoy the rights of the empire! And to draw the direction of the development of the empire's spiritual civilization, it is necessary to quickly move closer to both ability and political integrity.
Speaking of which, it's the same thing.
The welfare benefits of the officials and generals of the Origin Empire are extremely high-end.
Compared with the so-called high salary, the benefits are more than several times.
Any official or general does not have to worry about money and other external things at all, and any official and general is actually a tycoon.
However, the vast majority of the people involved in the clean-up were planted on these external objects. Only a few are driven by ambition.
That's why Li Lin made such a statement.
Those who don't know the height of the sky, needless to say. These people are stupid people, they don't understand the situation at all, I'm afraid they still think that the emperor is far away, and they want to be their own masters.
But they don't know that what they do is completely in the hands of the spirit of data. Even everything they say and do, eating, drinking, and Lazar are monitored by the little chubby girl.
Moreover, the empire's control over the worlds of various subordinate planes is very concentrated, do these people think that the physical distance can allow him to do whatever he wants?
In addition, those who violated various laws and regulations because of financial interests and power struggles made Li Lin extremely unhappy. To put it bluntly, these people are not virtuous.
In the past 100 years, the empire has completely achieved the position of moral education. And the officials and generals are the elite of the empire, and they should know the truth well. But I didn't expect that among the elites, there were so many scum.
It can be seen that in terms of morality, the people may not be enough to meet the standards in Li Lin's heart.
Therefore, immediately after this incident, the empire increased its investment in moral education and established stricter standards for the rules that define virtuous behavior.
Just as Li Zheng and Li Lin said at the beginning, the progress of a civilization lies not only in its economy, politics, and military, not only in its material aspects, but also in the construction of spiritual civilization. So, moral education. is a top priority.
The population of the empire is trillions, and talented people are not uncommon, and talented and virtuous people are the talents that the empire needs!
At the same time, the punishment measures for violating relevant laws and regulations have also been raised to a higher level. It has become more demanding.
Guided by moral education and deterred by legal punishment, the two-pronged approach is a two-pronged approach! That's what Li Lin is going to do
Time flies so fast, in a blink of an eye, about another four years have passed. According to the calculation of the era name of the Origin Empire, it should now be the first hundred years of the Origin Empire!
The ruling and military class of the empire has come to change again.
And at this time, the abyss of the rock.
Li Zheng has suppressed the Rock Giant Tortoise for more than six years. These six years. With the abyss of rock as the center, the huge river area with a radius of 10 billion light years is illuminated by two huge balls of light, which are extremely transparent.
Here, it was originally dark and deep.
But the light has been blooming here for six years.
In the abyss of the rock, two balls of light. It's like two incomparably large stars, where the brilliance of law and energy intertwine and collide. Set off a wave of violent vibrations and a surging tide of law energy. In the space of six years, hundreds of thousands of dimensional worlds in the surrounding area have been destroyed by the waves of vibration and law.
Six years is nothing to Li Zheng. For the rock giant tortoise, it was just a blink of an eye.
This big dick. One sleep is 120,000 years, what is six years?
In the past six years, Li Zheng has fought with the giant tortoise several times. If you want to measure, it's about every second. The two have played each other tens of thousands of times!
Every time there is a confrontation, the void will be shaken, and with every confrontation, the power of the law will be scattered and disintegrated.
Although they have been fighting all the time in the past six years, the two are still in good spirits and have not tired in the slightest.
Especially the giant tortoise, the entire body size, has a radius of hundreds of millions of light years, and the power and energy contained in it are bottomless!
If this continues, it is not surprising that the two will be deadlocked for tens of thousands of years.
Li Zhengwei'an's divine body was still sitting on the turtle shell behind the giant turtle's head, and the giant turtle had to twist its head every time it bombarded.
Over the years, this guy has become more and more irritable.
Li Zheng felt more and more that he couldn't suppress it.
The giant tortoise is incomparably powerful, and the use of higher laws is like instinct, and it is wonderful. Moreover, on the turtle shell, there were also repeated ripples of the law, producing all kinds of vibration forces of different intensity, different directions, and different effects, which made Li Zheng very sad.
It's like the ass is sitting on a machine that is shaking rapidly.
And this machine is hot, like an erupting volcano, and it is shaking rapidly, and the end is difficult to adapt.
Speaking of which, Li Zheng also found that this giant turtle didn't seem to have advanced intelligence, maybe it was because he had slept for a long time and his brain was a little numb. Although the application of the law is wonderful, the method used is rigid, and there are only a few means, back and forth, without much change. Otherwise, if it was to change to a plane master with the same strength, Li Zheng would not say that he would be suppressed, and it would be right to run away immediately.
In the past few years, in the process of fighting with the giant tortoise, Li Zheng also tried to communicate with this big guy. But the harvest was not ideal.
Li Zheng can be sure that this giant turtle has intelligence. But maybe Li Zheng provoked it, so he was very irritable, and he didn't pay attention to the communication information transmitted by Li Zheng at all.
Of course, in the past six years, Li Zheng himself has made remarkable progress.
In the process of confronting the giant tortoise, it is very rewarding to observe the giant tortoise using the higher laws and confirming each other with his own application methods.
But although Li Zheng has improved, compared with the giant tortoise, the gap between the two sides has not changed. It still seems difficult to suppress this big guy.
During the period of suppressing the giant tortoise, Li Zheng also found some thought-provoking situations.
Again and again, he felt that something was watching here.
The existence that has the ability to watch Li Zheng and the giant tortoise fight all the time is definitely not a weak person. At least, it is also at the same level as Li Zheng and the giant tortoise.
But Li Zheng couldn't find this secret snooper.
One has a giant tortoise that pulls the spirit, and it is impossible to concentrate on searching. The two, the watcher, should indeed be a powerful being.
However, Li Zheng had some guesses in his heart. (To be continued......)
