"City Lord, there are a total of 25 gangs within a hundred miles of Liang City. Among them, there are 7 sects, 13 mountain lords, and the rest are scattered bandits. In my humble opinion, we can send out our cavalry and 1,000 soldiers from the north, south, east, and west at the same time. Those who don't surrender and disobey will be killed.”
Xue Antian suggested.
It was obvious that Xue Antian had already understood the situation in Liang City.
As Xue Antian finished speaking, a man named Lu Mo added," City Lord, General Xue is right. Right now, Liang City's morale is high, and our army is strong. There are many martial artists in the city who sign up to join the army every day. With such a high morale, Liang City can completely eliminate the hidden dangers in our territory."”
Just as the two of them said, this was also one of the reasons why Qin Shuang took the initiative to send troops to battle.
"Hmm? What General Xue and the Lu Zhong Army said made sense. Rather than letting those villains do whatever they wanted, it would be better to unify Liang City as soon as possible. How about this, as General Xue said, the army will be dispatched in two days, and the specific deployment will be personally handled by General Xue. Everyone, please speak freely about the second matter.”
When it came to leading troops to war, Xue Antian and the others were in high spirits. However, it was a little difficult for them to propose policies on issues related to the people's livelihood.
As soon as Qin Shuang finished speaking, everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to look at her.
Seeing everyone's expressions, Qin Shuang could not help but sigh inwardly,""Eh? These men in front of him all had the courage to fight on the battlefield, but they did not have the ability to manage.”
Just as Qin Shuang was secretly disappointed, Zhanpeng suddenly opened his mouth and said,""City Lord, this subordinate has something to report.”
"Speak."
"City Lord, one of my guards is called Yang Kuan. According to him, their village is called the Yang Village. Both men and women in the village practice martial arts, which is called the Taiji Sect. The Taiji Sect is located in a ravine 150 miles west of Liang City. There is a person named Yang Mingru inside. He is the sect leader of the Taiji Sect and the current owner of the Yang Family Village. At the same time, he is also proficient in the way of governing the country…"
"Yang Mingru? Taiji Sect?"
"Exactly. According to Yang Kuan, the Yang family was originally an aristocratic family of officials. Their ancestors had been high officials in the Tang, Liang, and Jin countries. Because the Tang, Liang, and Jin countries were ruled by fatuous monarchs, the Yang family's ancestors were afraid that they could not use their talents and resigned.”
Just as Zhan Peng said, after the Qin Dynasty, there were several famous dynasties in this world. Unfortunately, the good times did not last long.
Shui Yunji's appearance made Qin Shuang guess,""The empress is very likely a descendant of the Tang Empire.”
Tang was not the Great Tang (Tang Dynasty) in Qin Shuang's memory, but there were similarities."The king of Tang is also surnamed Li."
The Tang Empire was overthrown by the Liang Empire after only sixty years. After that, the history of this world was somewhat similar to the Five Generations and Ten Kingdoms on Earth.
The biggest difference was: "Since the Tang Empire, there has been no emperor in the Divine Great Land who could unify the martial arts world in the Divine Land.”
"Zhanpeng, let's put this matter aside for now. After this City Lord has made the specific arrangements, I will personally go to the Yang Family Village to verify it. If it's really as you say, this city lord will definitely reward you handsomely. If all of this is just a rumor, this city lord will also remember your contribution for daring to speak up.”
After he finished speaking, he gave a detailed explanation of the matter of sending out troops before Qin Shuang dismissed Xue Antian and the others.
Qin Shuang's worries could not be resolved, and she no longer had the mood to cultivate. Instead, she brought Ji Ruxue to disguise herself and blend into Liang City.
Walking on the street, Ji Ruxue saw that Qin Shuang was unhappy and could not help but think,""Qin Shuang not only has the demeanor of an emperor, but he also cares about the country and the people. If he unified the Divine Great Land, would the other regions be as orderly and peaceful as Liang City?”
Thinking of this, Ji Ruxue came back to her senses and muttered to herself,""There are different levels of status. When ordinary people encounter difficulties and troubles, they will first turn to their relatives or neighbors for help. If ordinary people have certain rights, will they use this hard-earned right to solve the worries of the people around them?”
Ji Ruxue was just casually asking, but Qin Shuang, who had heard it, suddenly fell silent.
At that moment, a thought appeared in Qin Shuang's mind."That's right, Xue 'er is right. Even though I am thirsty for talents, due to the difference in status, many ambitious people are still unable to be put in an important position. Since that's the case, why don't I give my power to some ordinary people?”
With a thought, Qin Shuang's mind also became clear.
"Xue 'er, pop…"
"What? What are you doing?"
"Haha, I've thought of it. I've thought of how to win back the hearts of the people for my own use.”
Without waiting for Ji Ruxue to ask further, Qin Shuang had already held her hand and left quickly.
Soon, Qin Shuang brought Ji Ruxue back to the City Lord's Mansion.
"Xue 'er, immediately prepare the Four Treasures of the Study…"
"Yes, I'll be done soon."
With paper on the table and a brush in hand, Qin Shuang first organized her words before writing in a flamboyant manner: "From today onwards, other than the City Lord's Mansion, there will be another manor in Liang City. The village has 'Benevolence',' Righteousness','Rite',' Wisdom','Truth',' Qinglong','White'| Tiger, Rosefinch, and Black Tortoise. There were also four constables under them, Heaven, Earth, Black, and Yellow. Anyone who was talented in literature, martial arts, and intelligence could register for the competition. Once they were accepted, the World Association would reward them with different levels of internal cultivation techniques or martial arts. [Remark: The Four Famous Hunters are known as Ruthless, Iron Hand, Chasing Life, and Cold-blooded.]”
Qin Shuang's stroke was natural. The moment she put down her brush, Jin Ling also took the initiative to remind her,"Congratulations, Master, for triggering the random task 'Recruit Magi.' You are required to spread the name of the world's best manor throughout the Divine Great Land within ten years. The system would randomly distribute rewards when the mission was completed. If the mission fails, the system will automatically deduct all of the master's spiritual cultivation.”
" Interesting, quite interesting. These four famous arresters sound a little 'cheapy', and they even have cultivation techniques and martial arts as bait. I'm sure this will attract many martial artists from the pugilistic world to sign up for the competition." In addition, the independence of The World's Best Manor and the City Lord's Mansion would not restrict the freedom of the martial artists too much, and they could also select some people with outstanding moral character from the ordinary people. Qin Shuang, how did you think of this?"
Ji Ruxue secretly praised.
Ji Ruxue witnessed all of this with her own eyes. She secretly admired Qin Shuang, but more than that, she was filled with joy and admiration because Qin Shuang had never disappointed her from the beginning to the end.
"Xue 'er, this is all thanks to you. If not for your reminder, I wouldn't have thought in this direction. Xue 'er, in order to reward you, why don't I carry you into the house?”
"Bah, shameless. Why do you only know how to let your imagination run wild all day long…"
Faced with Qin Shuang's teasing, Ji Ruxue's beautiful face could not help but turn rosy again.
