Chapter 288 The Yan Han State implemented a new policy, and the princes opposed it at home
Last time, he said that at this time, the Yan Han State had completely defeated the coalition forces of the major vassal states of the country under the edict of the Dahao Empire, so that the major vassal states had to immediately cede land and pay compensation and negotiate peace with the Yan Han State.
Zhou Shuyu is dealing with a large number of mountains of government affairs in his humble palace, in fact, even those close servants feel that the king is too diligent in political affairs! In the past 3,000 years, the king has been dealing with such government affairs almost day in and day out for 3,000 years, and he does not feel tired of it at all. The king's energy is simply extraordinary, but it is precisely because of this that the Yan Han Kingdom will become so strong.
When Zhou Shuyu looked at a piece of music in his hand, he saw that it was from a Yuchang Road prison envoy named Xun Chang, only to see that what he mentioned in the chapter was a big tragedy. It turned out that Yuchang Road once belonged to a country called Yuchang Country, the monarch of this country was a complete tyrant, in order to be immortal, he would refine the elixir for himself with the essence blood of three thousand women every year, and as a result, a large number of bones were excavated in Yuchang Road, all of which were female bones, and now they have all been buried in the ground! However, the king of Yuchang did not die, but took refuge in the royal family of the current Dahao Empire, so he hoped to take advantage of this peace negotiation to arrest the king of Yuchang country, who was guilty of crimes.
Zhou Shuyu immediately complied, and immediately conveyed it to the Ministry of Rites, and asked the main officials of the Ministry of Rites to inform the peace envoys of the Dahao Empire.
For the Dahao Empire, this Yan Han Kingdom adjacent to them is too powerful now! If one person could be exchanged for peace, they would definitely agree. So, naturally, the heinous king was quickly escorted over!
As a result, the prison envoy named Xun Chang directly put the king to trial and executed mercilessly. It is said that on that day, snow fell from the sky, and those unjustly killed souls flew from the land into the air.
When Zhou Shuyu heard this Xun Chang's recital, he only felt that he should really deal with this problem of cultivation! After all, it is precisely because of cultivation that the people of the world suffer from it. It seems that he has to find a way to give the people of Yan Han Kingdom a better chance to become cultivators. Scarcity is precious, and it is precisely because there are too few monks and more power that this imbalance occurs. However, if monks become common, and everyone becomes a monk, then this injustice will be reduced. And he founded education in order to popularize cultivation methods. Today, the foundation has been laid. Therefore, he was determined to make the monks thoroughly popularize the people of the Yan Han Kingdom.
Therefore, Zhou Shuyu began to gather a large number of alchemists, distributed them to refine various pills, and distributed these pills to the people of the world. Of course, there is a price to be paid by the people of the whole world. However, now the people of the Yan Han Kingdom are very wealthy, and there is no need to worry that they cannot afford this kind of cost. Moreover, the people of the Yan Han Kingdom worshiped Zhou Shuyu, the king, and they naturally completely trusted the king.
Soon, these people took this elixir, and their bodies began to change one by one. In particular, they find that their cultivation is constantly increasing.
At the same time, Zhou Shuyu summoned the most powerful array mages and talisman masters in the Yan Han Kingdom, and asked them to build an enhanced version of the Spirit Gathering Array in the homes of all the people of the Yan Han Kingdom, and connect these formations in series like a power grid. All the people only have to pay a small fee, and most of the cost is borne by the government.
Such a huge project requires a large amount of expenditure and manpower, but now the people of Yanhan are rich and prosperous, so there is no need to worry about such expenditure and manpower.
Of course, what followed was the railroad promoted by the aura of heaven and earth, of course, not a train driven by steam, but a pollution-free train promoted by various talismans and formations. Since Zhou Shuyu has popularized various natural sciences, various inventions have been emerging. And these inventions have revolutionized people's lives.
In addition, due to the literacy campaign of the Yan Han Kingdom, the people of the entire Yan Han Kingdom were literate and hyphenated, so through the television-like machines that had spread throughout the Yan Han Kingdom, as well as a variety of books and newspapers that kept the news up-to-date, the whole country already knew about the king's policy.
Due to the establishment of the Cabinet Council, all the people of Yan Han can participate in the discussion of politics. At the same time, the country's government at all levels is very transparent about its financial revenues and expenditures, which also avoids corruption by officials.
In fact, after this war, as long as the neighboring countries do not want to stir up trouble, then the Yanhan Kingdom will have a long-term peace. But is it possible? Of course not. In particular, many vassal states had begun to learn from the advanced experience of the Yan Han state, and tried to carry out internal reforms to revitalize their own economies, hoping to wash away their own humiliation when they fought with the Yan Han state in the future. However, this is a point that they will never be able to surpass. However, in fact, some ministers asked Zhou Shuyu, the king, why did he let these advanced knowledge circulate? Zhou Shuyu smiled but did not answer. This is because Zhou Shuyu understands very well that scientific progress itself is constantly promoted in competition, and if he monopolizes this kind of science and technology, it will only cause stagnation.
Therefore, for Zhou Shuyu, he hopes that Yan Hanguo will have more and more opponents in the future, and their technology will become more and more developed. Only in this way will the Yan Han Kingdom not be comfortable for a long time, but let the people forget the blue threads of their ancestors in the past. Only by letting the people of the Yan Han Kingdom know in their hearts that those enemies who intend to destroy the Yan Han Kingdom have been eyeing the Yan Han Kingdom, have been waiting for the decline of the Yan Han Kingdom, and have been waiting for the slaughter of the people of the Yan Han Kingdom, can they be filled with a sense of crisis all the time, and dare not have any arrogance and indulgence. Of course, more importantly, the Yan Han country's vigorous promotion of talents, as well as meritocracy, advocating morality and other national policies have been standing, plus although there are rich and poor in the Yan Han country, but the gap between each other is not so big, everyone is almost at the same time progress, although there is a gap in income, but everyone is not worried about their housing, medical care, pension and other issues. Therefore, in this country, no one dares to be content with wealth and nobility, and no one dares to look down on others, after all, in this Yan Han country, a neighbor of an ordinary family, Bao Buqi is a super master of the country living in seclusion.
In short, the internal contradictions of this country have not been great, but the external contradictions are very acute. In particular, the citizens of this country do not think that their country has won a few battles, and they feel that they are invincible in the world! This is also one of the reasons why Zhou Shuyu likes this country very much, that is, this country is very modest, of course, this country is not arrogant, they always maintain a humble attitude towards everything, they are not only good at learning from the experience of the successful, but also like to summarize the lessons from the losers. In short, no one in this country will be completely denied because of one failure, nor will they be arrogant because of a hundred successes.
It is such a country that has been constantly rising in the midst of so many enemy countries.
This time, the various national policies implemented by Zhou Shuyu are even more popular with the people of the whole country.
It's just that the development of Yan Han is tantamount to making neighboring countries jealous. However, they knew very well that they were not the opponents of Yan Han at all. Therefore, this also prompted them to continue to send students to study abroad, trying to learn from Yan Han Guo how to defeat Yan Han Kingdom. However, when these students returned from their studies in the Yan Han Kingdom, they found that the policies pursued by the Yan Han Kingdom were extremely resistant to their implementation in their countries, because in their countries, the conservative forces such as the royal forces, the big families, the clan forces, and even the wealthy merchants and magnates were deeply rooted, and the policies and ideas of the Yan Han Kingdom that directly benefited the people would directly arouse strong opposition from these conservative forces in their countries. And these students were all born from these conservative forces, and they did not have a deep understanding of the people's suffering, so it was naturally impossible to carry them out.
Therefore, other countries began to gradually demonize the Yan Han Kingdom, and they even ridiculed the Yan Han State for its policy of equality for all, and even literati from other countries began to write all kinds of slanderous words against the Yan Han Kingdom. This made people in other countries think that Yan Han was just a demon and magic, and even began to stop sending students to Yan Han, and at the same time regarded all kinds of books of Yan Han as heresy, and anyone who stole the books of Yan Han was caught by the government of their country and immediately burned at the stake.
However, the advanced ideas of Yan Han have continued to penetrate into the hearts of all poor people in other countries, and many people have begun to risk their lives to propagate Yan Han ideas to people in other countries. As a result, the Yan Han Kingdom became a demon in the eyes of the conservative forces of other countries for a while, but it was a sacred country in the eyes of the people of other countries.
With the passage of time, the policies implemented by Zhou Shuyu in Yan Han have been implemented.
At this time, the situation in various countries is getting worse and worse. Their economy is still stagnant, and the powerful conservative forces are still standing in their country, so this has caused the Yan Han state to become stronger and stronger, and the other countries to become weaker and weaker. However, the high-end combat power of these countries is constantly increasing. As a result, although the national strength of these countries is very weak, their countries still have a large number of masters, and they began to unite for a common purpose to fight against the Yan Han State.
However, for Zhou Shuyu, he was a little disappointed about this situation. After all, what he hoped for was for the entire vast continent to completely undergo large-scale changes because of the Yan Han Kingdom. However, he still underestimated the strength of the conservative forces of those enemy countries, who themselves regarded the people as a mustard, how could they be willing to share the benefits with the people! In particular, the blood debt they owe to the innocent people is too much to mention. In the eyes of these conservative forces who hate the people in the extreme, this will never be allowed to happen. However, the policy pursued by Zhou Shuyu in the Yan Han Kingdom was only really implemented after eliminating all the conservative forces in the Yan Han State and with the strong support of the people of the Yan Han Kingdom. Therefore, it is clear that the policies pursued by Zhou Shuyu can only be successfully implemented in his own country.
It's just that Zhou Shuyu noticed that although the conservative forces of the enemy country are extremely strong, there are still people who are not afraid of death.
If you want to know what happens next, let's see the next breakdown.
