Time is as long as a great river going east, and it cannot be reversed.

Since Yuan Hao replaced the Wulin Dynasty to establish the Ming Dynasty and changed Yuan Hongwu, it has now reached the twelfth year of Hongwu.

Under the step-by-step implementation of Yuan Hao, the entire Ming Dynasty, in addition to the territory of the Japanese State, can also be called thriving, the people are stable, and the world has a great view of governance and prosperity.

Because of the record of forcibly destroying the Japanese kingdom, Yuan Hao's fierce reputation can be regarded as a fierce shock to those "heroes" in the Quartet who have the world in mind, they all know that the Central Plains already has such a master as Yuan Hao, and then there are Nameless, Nie Feng, Bu Jingyun, Evil Emperor, Sword Emperor, and Pig Emperor...... With the assistance of masters, after the reunification, the Central Plains cannot be said to be as solid as the Jincheng soup pool, but it is also united and cannot be underestimated.

In terms of the size of the Central Plains Shenzhou, as long as the Shenzhou itself does not attack each other and is in turmoil, it is difficult for the foreign country to have any means to conquer this behemoth.

In fact, in the twelve years after the establishment of the Ming Dynasty, after the troubles of those careerists, the people of China really lived a period of stability.

Although there is no way for the Jianghu martial arts to settle down, there are many fewer big things and turmoil like the world will compete with Wushuang City in the past.

After seeing the strength of the Godless Palace and the Wa Kingdom, the sects on the rivers and lakes all realized that there was not only Middle-earth in the world, and the masters outside Middle-earth did not have good intentions towards the Central Plains. They are accumulating their ability to cope with the future, but they are making the rivers and lakes much less strife.

After 12 years of fertility teaching, the development of the Central Plains has undergone great changes compared with 12 years ago. As the chariot of time rumbled, even the people of the Central Plains who were dressed in it found that everything around it was changing too fast on this day.

Factories with more than 1,000 employees were built, and tools with different functions gradually entered people's lives: new types of cocoons, new looms, and steam-powered tractors...... And so on, existing professions have new tools, and more professions have emerged because of the establishment of some new industries.

The people of the Central Plains suddenly found that everything they were familiar with was being rapidly changed by a powerful force. Originally, they thought that their ancestors had lived like this for generations, and their children and grandchildren would live like themselves, but they found that everything had changed dramatically.

First of all, the issuance of several laws, so that the next generation of the people of the Central Plains of Shenzhou has the opportunity to receive education - this is not voluntary, but mandatory, and how many children of the people are enrolled in a place and a school, and how effective these children are, are linked to the promotion of officials.

In the past twelve years, Yuan Hao's tree man plan has gradually spread out, and it has gradually become a big tree that has roots and gradually grows. In the past three years, with the emergence of a large number of high-level warriors and senior scholars, there have been many officials in the Yuanhao court.

These people were born in schools and are considered Yuan Hao's cronies, and they are Yuan Hao's most trusted existences. Although he did not reach a high position because of his lack of qualifications, Yuan Hao estimated that with the passage of time, these officials would eventually replace the existing bureaucrats as the main force in the court.

Of course, this is a relatively high-end thing, and it has little to do with the martial arts of the rivers and lakes, and it has little to do with the people.

The people don't feel these things, and what they feel is that in the past twelve years, they seem to have more opportunities to earn money and find a job, they can also have a few pieces of money and food in their hands, there are more meats on the table at home, they seem to be able to go farther through the things that call the train, there are more things in the market, and the prices have also dropped. Overall, my life is getting better little by little.

These things are very small and subtle, and it is difficult for ordinary people to notice, but as long as you have a heart, you will always find some clues. When the people's lives improved, the city became more prosperous, and the reflection was on the whole country, where the court and army of the Ming Dynasty began to have an invincible bearing.

In the past 12 years, the Ming border army has repeatedly gone out to conquer the barbarians from all directions, and the excuses are varied, and some can even be called unreasonable and domineering, but although there are many such sorties, the scale of the attacks is not large, purely for the purpose of training their own army.

It's just that the Ming Dynasty established by Yuan Hao was different from previous dynasties, because the establishment of the telegraph network and the determination of the army's Chinese officer instructor system made Yuan Hao able to command the affairs of the country's large and small armies in the capital Chang'an. As emperor, his control over the country's military power was unmatched.

He was not afraid of the rebellion of his generals, because he had a whole system to check and balance them. He is not afraid that his generals will send troops to fight and make contributions, because these generals can only decide how to fight, as for who to fight, what reason to fight, and what scale to fight, it is up to Yuan Hao's court to decide.

Although it is a martial arts world that emphasizes personal force, Yuan Hao knows that he may be able to live happily in this world by relying solely on personal force, but if he wants to help himself better, he must take on more responsibilities and enhance the overall strength of the Central Plains.

Although the power of the people is only a weak point, there are so many people in the world, and it is also an unusually huge force gathered together, and this power is improved little by little, and the humane power formed in the end naturally has the power to resist the so-called catastrophe.

At that time, even if you are no longer in this world, the abundant merits will be enough to make you go further. After all, what I am doing now is innovation, revolution, change, progress, and the power of the Central Plains far beyond this era and promoted to another world.

The current Central Plains is still in the early stage of change, and there are not many things that it embodies, and the distance between it and other civilizations is not large, but with the passage of time, this gap will continue to increase, and finally become a general trend that completely crushes other civilizations. Natural selection, survival of the fittest.

This is true not only for individuals, but also for nations. Yuan Hao didn't want his Middle-earth to become meat in other people's mouths, so he had to make himself strong, hideous, and able to turn others into meat, and then eat other people's meat to become even stronger. It's a bloody symbol, but it's also a path that a civilization has to walk.

"It's better to shed other people's blood than your own!" Yuan Hao thought.

Twelve years as an emperor has made him more powerful and calmer. With the completion of the twelve-year Shuren plan, Yuan Hao was satisfied with the great increase in the national strength of his own dynasty, but also understood that the matter was about to open. Gate of Heaven, Slay the Dragon!

"The legendary Emperor Shakti should also move. In the Yangxin Hall of the Imperial Palace of Chang'an City, Yuan Hao muttered to himself.

He remembered that in the original trajectory of the Wind and Cloud World, the Seven Martial Arts and Dragon Slaying was twelve years after the rebellion of the Wa Kingdom.

This is not because Shakti had the patience to suppress his greed and wait until that time, but because the true dragon slaying is something that can only be done when the heavens, places, people, and other elements are combined. Otherwise, with the Dragon Yuan, it is related to the importance of whether the Emperor Shakti can live forever, and the seven weapons have already appeared, so why don't you see any movement in the Heavenly Gate.

Although it is said that the Heavenly Gate has been hidden in the human world for hundreds of thousands of years, as long as they dare to walk in the human world, Yuan Hao dares to say that he can find their movements. The Ming Dynasty was different from any previous dynasty, and the organization of the Ming Dynasty was more detailed and deeper.

In the case of the political power entering the village, Yuan Hao can really say, "Under the whole world, it is not the king's land! ”

Of course, this royal land refers to the land that the Ming Dynasty can control at the moment.

Twelve years may be a short time for the development of the country. But twelve years is a long experience for a person. How many 12 years can there be in a person's life? You know, a person's life is only 50 or 60 years. After all, seventy years of life is rare!

Twelve years can change a lot of things. A lot of people, a lot of things...... It's all different from the beginning.

Yuan Hao has created such a great foundation in the world of wind and clouds, and many people and things have changed because of his existence:

Kong Ci did not die, she ended up with Bu Jingyun, who did not become the fisherman Zhuo Shan of the small village, but became the royal inspector under Yuan Hao, patrolling the world on behalf of Yuan Hao to deal with some troublesome things in the rivers and lakes and martial arts;

Partnering with him were Nie Feng and Jianchen;

Jianchen made a big mistake, Yuan Hao didn't like him, but the nameless one of the parties didn't say anything because of this, and begged Yuan Hao's door for Jianchen, and Yuan Hao could only let him enter the sequence of the royal inspector. Over the years, Jianchen has done well. Yu Chuchu was finally pursued by Jianchen, and she married Jianchen.

And Nie Feng, the winner in life, married Mingyue and the second dream - this matter is in a lot of trouble on the rivers and lakes. The second dream's father, the Sword Emperor, didn't want his daughter to serve a husband with others, so he made a big wedding banquet on the day Nie Feng got married, if Yuan Hao hadn't stopped it, I was afraid that Nie Feng's wedding would be completely messed up.

Although in the end, under the persuasion of Nie Feng and the Second Dream, and even Yuan Hao, the Second Sword Emperor acquiesced in this matter, but the turmoil caused by it became a joke in the world at that time.

Now, twelve years have passed, and Bu Jingyun, Nie Feng, and Jianchen ...... They are all very different from the lives in their original trajectories, and they themselves have their own offspring.

As important ministers under Yuan Hao, their descendants naturally have good material treatment, although it is not a brocade clothes and food, but at least food and clothing, Yuan Hao, as the emperor, will naturally not treat his favorite generals badly. He gave them excellent treatment and gave them the best teachers, but he did not spoil them for it.

Bu Tian, Bu Ting, Nie Qing, Nie Zheng, Jian Yun...... These people have grown up well, and they are also well-known in Chang'an City. Of course, these fame are not notoriety.

It's just that some things have changed, and some things haven't.

When Yuan Hao received a report from Nie Feng that someone was collecting divine weapons on the rivers and lakes, Yuan Hao understood that Tianmen's operation had begun. Although collecting divine weapons is not a big deal in the rivers and lakes.

After all, every person who practices martial arts hopes to have a divine weapon in his hand, and this is not unusual. But Yuan Hao didn't dare to ignore it, because he had already been warned by Nie Feng and knew what the other party's divine weapon was seeking:

The peerless sword, the heavenly sin, the heroic sword, the fire sword, the heavenly blade, the greedy wolf, and the silence - these are clearly the seven weapons used to slay the dragon in Yuan Hao's memory.

Yuan Hao saw that someone was collecting these, and if he didn't understand that Emperor Shakti had already started to act, then he would really be stupid and stupid. It's just that Yuan Hao is not stupid, so he thought of this at once. At that time, I knew that people related to Tianmen would soon come to the door.

Because the times have evolved to the point where they are now, almost half of the seven weapons that Shakti pursued that could be used to slay dragons were in the hands of himself and his men:

The peerless sword is in the hands of Bu Jingyun, the heroic sword is in the hands of Jianchen, the Heavenly Blade and the greedy wolf are the trophies after he killed the broken army, unless the Emperor Shakti can replace these weapons with other weapons such as the Great Evil King, the Sword of Defeat, etc., they will definitely come to the door.

"So...... Now there's a problem. Will the Emperor change his original plans because of my existence?" Yuan Hao thought, but shook his head with a dumb smile.

Yes or no, it doesn't take much thought.

With Shakti's haughty temper and his own festiveness, how could he change his mind because of his existence?

I just don't know who the person who will come this time will be?

Yuan Hao calculated again. To be honest, he was not familiar with the structure of the Heavenly Gate. Although he caught the Divine Mother and tried to obtain all kinds of information about the Emperor Shakti and the Heavenly Gate from the Divine Mother, the Emperor Shakti seemed to be a master of spiritual power, and Yuan Hao only interrogated the Divine Mother twice, and the trap that the Emperor Shakti placed in the Divine Mother Exercises was launched.

If it weren't for Yuan Hao's urgency, he protected the Divine Mother's Divine Court in time and kept the Divine Mother's sanity, I was afraid that the Divine Mother would be made a fool by Emperor Shakti on the spot.

But even so, the Mother of God still lost a lot of memories, and she even forgot her own name. This made Yuan Hao completely lose the possibility of obtaining information about the Heavenly Gate and the Emperor Shakti from the Divine Mother.

Therefore, until today, Yuan Hao does not know much about Tianmen and Emperor Shakti, he can only find it from the words and phrases of historical classics, and can only explore it through his own understanding and memory of the Fengyun world. It's just that the records are one thing to remember the things that I remember, and what I'm experiencing now is obviously another thing.

"The Divine Mother has been damaged, who will be sent by the Heavenly Gate Society next?" Yuan Hao muttered, his mind becoming distant.

He had a vague feeling that this time the Emperor Shakti's reappearance from the mountain might lead to many unbelievable things.

But...... So what's going on?

I'm not afraid! If you have the guts, come ahead! Yuan Hao walked outside the hall of the Yang Xin Hall, looked at the starry sky hanging from the sky, and thought leisurely.
