Chapter 128: The World Unified

The destruction of the grassland Hu people was the last major battle of the Chu court to unify the world.

After this war, the general situation of the world became clearer. Knowing that there was no more chance, the remnants of the northern princes and the major families gave up their unrealistic plans and went to Beijing one after another to make pilgrimages to Zhao Yuanjin, saying that they would hand over all their territory and military power, and from then on they would completely submit to the imperial court.

Zhao Yuanjin also generously expressed that he was not to blame for the past, except for Ye Mingce and Zhang Chen, who were named the princes of the country, and the remaining small and medium-sized princes were granted titles and property that matched their status, so that they could spend their old age in peace.

Therefore, in June, the imperial army's troops were successfully stationed in Jizhou and Youzhou, and took over the governance of all counties. Including the annexation of the state, the whole world except for the northwest has become one.

Only Li Yunsong relied on his occupation of Liangzhou and Guanzhong, and even asked to demarcate the border with the Chu Dynasty and rule, but he was only nominally subservient to the imperial court, and regarded himself as the lord of a vassal state.

This excessive demand was immediately rejected by the imperial cabinet, and after the two sides collapsed, Zhao Yuan sent a large army of 300,000 troops to attack by road. Within a month, the battle was victorious, Hanzhong and Tongguan changed hands one after another, and the Chu army successfully approached the city of Chang'an.

Hundreds of thousands of troops besieged the city, and although there were more than 100,000 soldiers in Chang'an City, they had lost their fighting spirit.

Zhao Yuanjin sent people to persuade him to surrender again, but Li Yunsong still refused, insisting on leading the army to fight to the death.

After several days of confrontation, the big clans in the city finally found an opportunity to secretly open the city and surrender at night, tens of thousands of Chu army elites poured into the city, and Chang'an fell.

Li Yunsong led a group of pro-troops to defend the palace, and was simply killed by Qin Feng. At this point, the war in Guanzhong came to an end.

In Luojing City, the second floor of a restaurant.

“…… Wang Shi took Guanzhong, and the world was finally reunited, and then there would be at least a hundred years of peace. A fat-headed and big-eared businessman said with a little emotion.

The surrounding drinkers echoed one after another, a few years ago, the decline of the Great Qi, the continuous military disasters and bandits in various parts of the world, and the life of the people of Li was of course miserable. This is how the saying that it is better to be a dog of peace than a person in a troubled world comes from.

"Speaking of which, the emperor today is really the destiny of heaven, when he was trapped in Jingnan County, the mountains and rivers were exhausted and dangerous, but he was able to get out of trouble overnight, and then he was full of energy, and he was invincible all the way to the city. Until now, it has only been three years to dominate the world. A reader said.

In just three years, he can rise from a dilapidated small prince to become the emperor Taizu who controls the world and opens up a new dynasty.

"However, how did I hear that the emperor was able to win the world, all because of the unsparing assistance of that mysterious national teacher, so that he could conquer everything and be invincible?" A young man wondered.

Now, Qin Feng's existence is no longer a secret, so many people are extremely curious about it. In the past history, perhaps only those gods in ancient legends can be compared with them. For example, Xuanyuan Yellow Emperor was besieged by Chiyou, and when he was poor, he had to teach the art of war to the Nine Heavens Xuannu, and finally turned defeat into victory, and captured and killed Chiyou to pacify the Quartet.

"Well, the power of the national teacher is unpredictable, and it does undoubtedly help the emperor's great cause." An old man bowed slightly.

With Qin Feng's various actions in this realm, in the eyes of people who don't know the truth, it is indeed no different from a real miracle. Who but he has the same ability to lift a destitute prince to the throne of the lord of the world?

"I heard that the emperor plans to choose a good place in the suburbs of Beijing, build an ancestral temple for the national teacher, worship all year round, and establish an ancestral system, and future generations will go to worship."

"This kind of kindness is unheard of, but with the ability of a national teacher, I can afford it."

"That's right, this is a real immortal, and we should go and worship it in the future."

“……”

"It's just...... Although the national teacher has the merit of passing through the heavens and the earth, he does not have a good impression of us and other gentry, and he even asks the emperor to collect taxes from us, which is really a big joke in the world. ”

A scholar said in a rather dissatisfied tone: "Our scholars are the foundation of the dynasty, but the court treats us so harshly, aren't we afraid of chilling the hearts of the people of the world?" ”

There was a sudden silence in the restaurant, and most of the eyes fell on him.

On a table by the window, a burly man who was drinking by himself glanced at him and said lightly: "It is a matter of course for the imperial court to collect taxes from the people under its rule, why should you gentry be an exception?" Are you not the people of the court? ”

"But we are scholars, and our generation serves the king, and we can only worry about the king after the middle school examination in the future...... How can it be compared to those mud legs? The scribe retorted, blushing.

For various reasons, all dynasties have had preferential treatment for the gentry class, especially in this regard, the government can not collect taxes from them, but the wealth they occupy is the most in the world, many privileges and preferential treatment, so they are still not satisfied.

They have taken this preferential treatment for granted, and it should be given to them by the imperial court, no matter which dynasty. Dynasties can be replaced, but the interests of the gentry cannot be moved. Whoever moves, he is a faint king, a sinner for the ages!

"But in the end, the imperial court just collected a few taels of rice and a few taels of silver from you,"

The big man sneered: "You still have the right to be an official, and you can still live better than most people, and you refuse to let go of such a little benefit?" To put it bluntly, your so-called loyalty to the country is actually not worth even a few stones of rice or a few taels of silver! ”

"But we are the foundation of the world's vitality,"

The scribe's voice was much quieter, and his expression was still indignant.

"Huh...... After recognizing a few words and reading a few books of sages, I take it for granted that I am superior to others, and ask the court for such and such preferential treatment, but I don't want to think about what contributions you have made to the world and to the people. It's just a rotten dwarf moth that eats and waits for death. Dahan sarcastically said unceremoniously.

"You...... You ......"

The scribe Huo Ran changed color, grabbed the wine jug in his hand and was about to smash it, but when he saw the other party's burly physique, which was far superior to ordinary people, he hesitated a little.

"Don't you dare?"

The big man glanced at him disdainfully: "When a certain family followed the emperor to fight in the south and the north, such a person like you, Lao Tzu slaughtered too much with one knife!" It's all garbage dross that you don't have for fart. ”

“……”

Quiet corner.

Qin Feng and Yun Qijun sat opposite each other, quietly watching the controversy.

"After the decree of the imperial court was promulgated, I heard that many gentry and landlords in the south gathered to make trouble, and hundreds of cases occurred in a few months." Yun Qijun looked at him and said.

"It's normal,"

Qin Feng said disappreciably: "There are always some people who don't know the general trend and don't know the general situation, and when the knife is cut down and the last batch is killed, the rest of the people will naturally be honest." ”

Now that the imperial court has not been established for a long time, the important ministers of the ministry are all outstanding people who have experienced the bloody battle of the founding of the country, how can they retreat and hesitate with the trick of inciting public opinion and gathering crowds to make trouble?

Anyway, there are a lot of people who have been killed, and it is not a big deal to have such a group of them, without these pretentious literati and gentry full of superiority, the world may be more peaceful and peaceful.

"Okay, let's not mention that."

Yun Qijun looked at him fixedly: "How long do you have to leave?" ”

If Qin Feng's task is completed today, it may not be long before he will go to the next world.

"About half a year."

Qin Feng said: "However, my incarnation will sit in this realm to cultivate, and I myself will come back often, so you don't have to worry about anything." ”

Yun Qijun breathed a sigh of relief, she hadn't broken through to the True Immortal yet, if Qin Feng really left neatly like this, she, the head of the cultivation world, wouldn't have to expect to do it.

I'm afraid there will be big problems on the side of the Chu court, don't forget the massive wealth in the name of the national teacher, once the absolute force deterrence is lost, it will be a super fat piece in those officials.

"In the future, you ...... Can you take me with you? I also want to follow you to see the world outside. Yun Qijun hesitated for a moment and said in a hurry.

"There's really no way around this, except for myself, it's impossible for any creature in this realm to break through the world barrier and leave." Qin Feng shook his head and said.

Not to mention that the current starship does not have the ability to take people through time and space, even if there is, he will not dare to mess around at will, God knows what unpredictable consequences will it cause?

The Starship Hub had vaguely reminded him that the secrets in the depths of the space-time plane were far from being as simple as he had previously thought. When the power is not strong enough, you wantonly come around, thinking that you don't die fast enough?

Yun Qijun sighed abruptly and did not continue to insist. Instead, he said: "This morning, the news from the sect that the ancestor has been successfully released. ”

Qin Feng replied lightly, this can be regarded as the second true immortal born in the cultivation world in the past thousand years.

The first is of course himself, but this is because he has gained enough power in the world to be useful only in this realm. After going to other worlds in the future, he can still only have the strength equivalent to the peak of human immortals.

"It seems that in the past half a year, I will often cultivate by your side and strive to break through as soon as possible." Yun Qijun stared at him angrily.

"That's fine."

Qin Feng agreed, her accumulation has been a lot, with the help of world authority, it should be about the same in another half a year.

Seeing that it was not early, the two got up and went downstairs and drove back to the National Teacher's Mansion.

Entering the backyard, Zhao Xinyue greeted her with great interest: "Husband, let's go drive, the queen mother will also come." ”
