The next day.
Early in the morning again.
Nine Halls.
Zishou looked at the officials in the hall and was speechless…
It was too early!
The time of the court session had to be changed.
Last night, together with Daji and Empress Jiang…
He was really sleepy now!
"This subject Wen Zhong greets the king. Fortunately, the king sent troops to help, and this subject was able to quell the rebellion and return.”
Wen Zhong took the first step forward and shouted respectfully.
"Grand Preceptor, please forgive me."
The corners of Zishou's mouth twitched.
To be honest.
Being stared at by Wen Zhong's three eyes was a little scary…
"On this trip, I saw that the rulers used by the people in various places are very varied. Some use wooden rulers, some use copper rulers, some use bone rulers, some are long and some are short, which is not conducive to the transactions of the people in various places.”
After Zi Shou finished speaking, the officials looked at each other, not knowing what the king was up to.
Now, not to mention the vassals, even Henan, which was centered on Zhaoge, had its own measurement methods.
They were all passed down by their ancestors.
It was especially unfavorable for the people of the two places to travel.
"After all, it's like this in my place. When it comes to you, there's suddenly a lot less. Who's willing to trade with you?
"Therefore, I specially ordered people to forge a new scale. In the future, all the dukes in Great Shang will use this to measure items!”
Zi Shou waved his hand, and someone carried a pile of wooden rulers into the hall and circulated them among the officials.
"I, I also ordered people to build a measuring bucket and a scale for weighing!”
"You can try it out first.”
After Zi Shou finished speaking, he sat there quietly and waited for the ministers 'reactions.
Previously, he had taught a few people how to use it, and then these people demonstrated it to the officials.
If he were to teach so many people, he would probably be annoyed to death by all kinds of questions.
That's why.
The entire court was like curious babies as they gathered around and watched the few people demonstrate how to use it.
Even Wen Zhong opened his three big eyes and watched intently.
Zishou looked at Kong Xuan, who was beside him, and looked at the demonstration with his neck stretched out. He wanted to laugh.
You're a Quasi-Sage, but you're like an elementary school student who hasn't seen the world.
"Your Majesty is wise!"
"Once these items are promoted, it will be a blessing for the commoners and Great Shang!”
"Great King Shengde!"
People who could be officials had good thinking.
After watching others demonstrate it, they immediately knew how to use it. Moreover, as officials in the court, they naturally knew how convenient it would be for the common people once these things were promoted.
Therefore, with Shang Rong and Wen Zhong as the leader, they all knelt on the ground and shouted.
Kong Xuan looked at Zishou in shock.
To be more precise, he watched as the faint golden light descended from the sky and entered his body.
Merit!
Zishou also noticed it.
However, he still pretended to be fine and said,"Everyone, please excuse the formalities."
There was a Quasi-Sage Almighty standing beside him. There might be someone watching him in the dark. What if he revealed something strange and gave himself away?
You are the emperor of the human world.
Do you know what merit is?
Moreover, Zishou felt that his current cultivation was not enough. He was only a True Immortal, so he should develop first.
In the future, when he became a Saint, he would just kill them all!
"The Spring Festival is approaching, and the dukes of the various towns will gather to sing songs.”
"King Wucheng, General Kong!"
"Your subject is here!"
"I order the two of you to lead 30,000 cavalry to guard Zhaoge City and wait for my signal!”
Zi Shou instructed.
"Yes, sir!"
Huang Feihu and Kong Xuan looked at each other and saw the surprise in each other's eyes.
The civil and military officials did not say anything. They looked at each other as they calculated their plans.
Why did His Majesty send troops to guard Zhaoge City?
They naturally knew…
Among them, Shang Rong was the one who saw through it.
Now that the king has been in hiding for a few years, he has already shown his true abilities.
This time... No, during this Spring Festival, Marquis of the West Ji Chang was probably doomed…
If it was only Marquis Xi, it probably wouldn't be worth the King's solemn arrangement.
After all, what he had done was too much!
"Your Majesty, are you... Reorganize the nobles!"
Shang Rong understood.
The manpower needed to build the Great Wall would be allocated from the various noble houses. This was the first step in reorganizing the nobles.
In order to prevent the vassals from inciting the people to rebel, the king had introduced the perpetual calendar and weights and measures one step ahead of time.
With these, it would be more convenient for the commoners to plant and sell.
Naturally, they would think of the king's good intentions. If the dukes wanted to rebel, the commoners might even hate the dukes.
"The king is actually so far-sighted!”
The more Shang Rong thought about it, the more shocked he became.
The King's shrewdness was unfathomable!
To think that he could think so far…
Scared, scared!
This old man is still willing to submit.
After Zi received the instructions, he returned to the harem to sleep.
The civil and military officials also returned to their residences with their own thoughts.
....
Time flew by.
In the blink of an eye, the new Spring Festival was approaching.
Ji Chang, the Marquis of the West, had been in Zhaoge for a few days, and he had been puzzled by one thing after another.
Why…The officials of Zhaoge looked at him strangely.
It was as if…As if he was looking at a dead person?
