"A public academy?"

"Medical center?"

"Dojo?"

All the ministers looked at each other and found that they could not keep up with the new emperor's train of thought.

At that time, Yin Jiao abolished the well-field system and started the private ownership of land. He killed many people arbitrarily, making some courtiers worry that it was another King Zhou.

However, a hundred days later, Yinjiao's reputation flourished. Wherever the humans lived, everyone shouted long live and thanked him for his kindness. Those who resisted were just some dignitaries, but they were all suppressed by Yinjiao.

Now that autumn was approaching, there were signs of a bumper harvest in all parts of the Nine States. The people lived and worked in peace and contentment, which not only made the civil and military officials look at Yin Jiao in a new light.

At this moment, Yin Jiao's imperial edict made them even more confused.

Fang Bi looked at Yin Jiao with a pleading look. With his permission, he lifted a piece of red cloth.

Under the red cloth, 12 imperial edicts with imperial seals piled up into a small mountain!

Yin Jiao held the dragon throne and his majestic voice spread in all directions.

"I have twelve things to do today!"

"The first thing is to implement the prefecture and county system and strengthen the central power. Gather small towns and villages into counties, with counties as local administrative units, abolish the enfeoffment system. The county set up a county magistrate to preside over the county government, a county magistrate to assist the county magistrate, and a county lieutenant to take charge of the military.

Huang Feihu, the Prince of Wucheng, was in charge of this matter.

The laws of the kings, generals, fiefs, and prefectures and counties had long been formulated. First, it would be implemented in Great Shang, then in the Four Seas and Eight Desolates!

Anyone who disobeys the decree will be killed without mercy. All vassals who do not obey will send troops to attack the rebels!”

"Secondly, Shennong tasted all kinds of herbs and requested for a pill book. He had a way to cure the disease and save people, but the people did not have the money to treat the disease. I sympathize with the sick, open the treasury gold and silver, in the nine states of the land, set up public hospitals.

All virtuous doctors will save the world. Our Great Heaven Dynasty will give out subsidies every month for the medical center to practice medicine.

Ya Bi will be responsible for this matter!"

"Third, implement a unified language and set up public schools! Imperial Uncle Wei Ziqi will be in charge of this matter!"

"Fourth, unify weights and measures and promote smelting methods. Chao Tian will be responsible for this!"

"Fifth, I have brush, ink, paper, and inkstone to promote to the world. Lu Xiong will be responsible for this!"

"Sixth, set up a public dojo to strengthen the national body! Yin Hong will be responsible for this!"

"Seventh, set up a county and a national Dao Palace to accept talented people, teach them spells, and protect the local area! Slay the demons! Wen Zhong is in charge now!"

"Eighth, set up a system of three provinces and six departments. The power of the emperor will be scattered, and the country can operate without a monarch! Shang Rong will take responsibility for this!"

…………

"The 12th thing is to set up this item in every place in the Heavenly Dynasty where the mortals gather to reach the heavens! The people can see the king, and the king can check the people. A thousand miles away, it was as if it was in front of him. Fang Bi will be responsible for this matter!"

Yin Jiao waved his hand, and the silk on the bronze mirror was removed. He injected a trace of magic power into it, and a vast wilderness immediately appeared on the bronze mirror!

In the wilderness, Grand Preceptor Wen led an army of 100,000 soldiers to Zhaogeben!

The flag of the Shang Dynasty fluttered in the wind like the might of the Celestial Empire!

"This! It was Grand Preceptor Wen! Grand Preceptor Wen was still hundreds of miles away!”

"This copper mirror can actually see things from a hundred miles away!”

"Not only did I see it, I even heard it clearly.”

All the officials were shocked by Yin Jiao's imperial edicts, but when the bronze mirror appeared, they realized something even more shocking.

"Your Majesty, do you mean that this kind of magic treasure can be forged into thousands of pieces and spread all over the world, so that the people of the world are no longer limited to mere flesh and blood?”Shang Rong gasped and asked with a trembling voice.

The moment this item appeared, the entire world was like an iron plate. There was nothing that could deceive the sovereign, and nothing that could hide from the sovereign.

And with the 12 imperial edicts, the commoners all clapped their hands in joy. With the support of the commoners, Great Shang's fate would definitely rise day by day!

However, once these 12 imperial edicts were released, the world would be in turmoil for a long time!

All the officials were not ordinary people. They could understand the general meaning of the imperial edict from just one sentence.

Each one of them was an earth-shattering event.

Yin Jiao thought to himself," Indeed, power comes with strength. As long as the three old fellows from Fire Cloud Cave don't interfere in the human race, I'll just have to do whatever I want."

Hearing Shang Rong's question, Yin Jiao replied,"That's right. "However, to create this item, you need a large number of peach and willow tree souls. I'll let you announce to the world that anyone who finds a willow or peach tree that is more than five hundred years old will report it to the imperial court and be exempted from taxes for a year.”

"Yes, sir!" The prime minister received the edict.

"Fang Bi, send these twelve imperial edicts to the ministers. I will personally deliver Grand Preceptor Wen's scroll.”

"Yes, sir!" Fang Bi received the edict.

"One last thing. There is no room for discussion regarding the twelve imperial edicts today. Those who disobey will be killed without mercy. I killed the 72 dukes of the North Sea just like that. It was still easy to kill a few disobedient nobles.”

Yin Jiao waved his sleeves and left the Nine Halls, leaving the officials drenched in cold sweat with their heads lowered and not daring to speak.

Most of these twelve imperial edicts touched on their interests, but they were for the sake of the people of the world.

Although Yin Jiao was overbearing, he was a virtuous ruler who loved the people of the world. He was different from King Zhou.

These unwilling nobles could not say anything even if they were bitter in their hearts. They could only pretend to be noble.

It couldn't be helped. This Emperor wasn't an ordinary person. That thousand-year-old vixen, who was a few stories tall, could be killed just like that. It really didn't take much effort to kill them.

"Prime Minister Shang. Look at what happened to His Majesty today." One of the princes wanted to know what Shang Rong, the most powerful old Prime Minister, would say.

Shang Rong looked over coldly.”

Huang Feihu, the King of Wucheng, said,"The rest of my fief will be distributed to the people tomorrow."”

Jizi and Wei Ziqi also agreed with the reform of the suburbs of Yin Dynasty.

Only a bold and powerful emperor like Yin Jiao could carry out such an earth-shaking change.

As the sages of the world, each of them had thought of one or two of these twelve imperial edicts to help the people of the world.

However, they had never dared to think about pushing the world because the resistance was too great! If he wasn't careful, he would kill all the nobles in the world.

He did not expect Yin Jiao to push it at the same time!

"Your Majesty, you shall be the first emperor in history!"

Many virtuous ministers shouted in unison.

At this moment, in Yinjiao's archaic Taoist temple, he was discussing the Dao with the Great Emperors.

"Empress, what do you think of my twelve imperial edicts?”Yin Jiao asked.

"The prosperity of the human race is just around the corner. However, when the human race flourished, they invaded the demon race's territory. Humans and demons could not coexist, and there would be conflicts.”The empress's voice was like the sound of nature, but it carried a trace of loneliness. It was unknown what she had thought of.

Yin Jiao naturally knew what the empress had said. After the human race became the master of the human world, they would quickly expand their territory.

Once his method was implemented, the survival rate of the human race would increase. It would probably not be long before the population would increase exponentially.

At that time, the conflict between humans and demons would continue. He would no longer have to face a few small demons, but the common master of the demon race, Goddess Nüwa.

"What should come will come."
