The news that Liu Hong was conferred the title of Marquis of Minghua spread rapidly across the country like wings.

The news of Zhang Qianfan's title of nobility spread like wildfire in the aristocratic circle, but for ordinary people, Zhang Qianfan's title of nobility had little to do with them and they just treated it as an interesting gossip and said a few words about it.

After all, the train tracks have not been laid yet, and no one knows what the train looks like.

Some people even said that the city lord's son invented a car that could breathe fire, and the empress loved it very much. When the emperor saw that the empress liked it, he conferred the title of Marquis of Xuanhua on Young Master Zhang!

Therefore, the most talked about thing about Zhang Qianfan's title of nobility was not the new thing called train, but the emperor's favor and regard for the empress.

But Liu Hong was different. He was a real commoner, and his title of nobility had a huge impact on the common people.

For a time, all the people attached greater importance to the education of their children!

Many parents no longer let their children become apprentices or help with farm work at home, and began to wholeheartedly support their children to go to school. The enrollment rate of Deng’s school has seen a new round of increase!

It is better to study hard for ten years than to open up new land for generations!

Xie Yiyao simply divided the school's teaching into liberal arts and science. This might be difficult for others to do, but Xie Yiyao had the system as her ultimate weapon, so she had no shortage of books.

The horizons of the common people have been reopened. It turns out that being an official is not the only way to bring honor to one's family. Being a scientist can also bring honor to one's family!

So in the following months, Xie Yiyao worked non-stop to expand the school's library. She must leave enough books before she leaves. As long as there are books, human civilization will develop.

She believes that human beings are born with a desire to explore the unknown.

Xie Yiyao was fully focused on the construction of the library, while Feng Junyi was fully focused on the selection of officials. This year's spring examination had abolished the recommendation system for candidates, so the number of applicants suddenly increased dramatically.

Feng Junyi originally wanted to break the aristocratic families' monopoly on the court, so he attached great importance to this year's spring examination.

He had already decided to pass the throne to Feng Junmo, so naturally he would take him with him in everything. As for the selection of students, he also explained to Feng Junmo one by one the reasons why he chose this person and not that one.

Therefore, Feng Junmo was very familiar with the newly selected officials of the court this year. With Feng Junyi's deliberate promotion, the officials in the court almost regarded Feng Junmo as their second master besides Feng Junyi.

Sometimes when Feng Junyi was not around, they would slowly start to report to Feng Junmo. Feng Junmo had been under Feng Junyi's guidance for such a long time that he was already adept at handling state affairs.

Everything was going according to Xie Yiyao and Feng Junyi's plan. However, a rumor started to spread among the people at some point.

That is, the Emperor and the Empress were sent by the gods in heaven to save the people. Now their mission has been completed and they will leave soon.

At first, the people said it was nonsense and a rumor, and that their emperor and queen would never abandon them. But as rumors continued to spread, the people began to waver in their hearts.

In their hearts, they have always believed that Feng Junyi and Xie Yiyao are the gods from heaven who have descended to earth. They just don't want to accept that the gods who protect them are leaving. Now that the rumors are becoming more and more credible, they are gradually becoming uneasy.

"Master, the rumors you spread seem to have had an effect. The people have been talking about you and the Emperor leaving."

Bao Da Ting's face was full of bitterness. He had cried secretly countless times and he didn't want his master to leave.

But he also understood that all good things must come to an end, and he could not stop his master from living the life she liked.

The most important thing is that he has seen how hard Xie Yiyao has worked during this period. Even if he is reluctant to part with his master, he does not want his master to work so hard every day and have no time for himself.

"It's understandable that they find it hard to accept at first, but they will gradually accept it. Let people spread rumors every day, and they will get used to it after hearing it many times."

Xie Yiyao was currently bending over her desk, writing and drawing, and responded after hearing what Bao Gossip said.

Bao Da Ting looked over curiously and was immediately shocked:

"Master, do you want to revise the law?"

Xie Yiyao didn't even raise her head:

"Yes, morality can only control those who would never commit a crime, but the law can suppress evil. The law I revised is also to control the aristocracy's habit of taking human life lightly. They must pay the price for their actions. Everyone in this world has only one life, and they are all equally precious. Killing someone means paying with one's life. It is only natural."

Xie Yiyao only roughly said that the content of the Constitution had been adjusted according to Deng's actual situation, and she believed that the law would become more and more perfect in the future.

After all, she left behind many books on law, and the Inspectorate and the Ministry of Justice will become more and more perfect under the constraints of the law.

"Master, but if the law is suddenly changed, I am worried that someone will object."

Bao Da Ting had a worried look on his face. His master was about to leave and he really didn't want him to be too tired. If those officials in the court started making trouble, it would be really troublesome.

"Don't worry, all the officials in the court have taken Feng Junyi's loyalty pill, and none of them are willing to make trouble. What we are doing now is to perfect this law as much as possible and effectively protect the rights and interests of the people."

Xie Yiyao was not worried at all. If she didn't know that Feng Junyi was fully capable of handling the court, she would not have risked civil unrest in the country to amend the law.

Once this law is promulgated, all future dynasties will have to follow it. In this way, even if she leaves, the lives of ordinary people will be much better.

"By the way, how is the newspaper I asked you to run?"

Xie Yiyao finished writing the last stroke and finally looked up at Bao Da Ting.

After hearing what Xie Yiyao said, Bao Da Ting said to Xie Yiyao happily:

"Master, that movable printing technique you mentioned is truly amazing! Look how neat the characters are!"

Bao Da Ting happily handed the first copy of Da Deng's newspaper in his hand to Xie Yiyao, who quickly took it and began to read it carefully.

The newspaper was divided into a main page and a sub-page according to Xie Yiyao's requirements. The main page mainly included hot news, financial news, and entertainment gossip.

Hot news mainly publishes some policies and important news from the court. Today's article is about Feng Junyi announcing the removal of a vice minister of the Ministry of Works because some people wrote letters in the complaint mailbox to report that the vice minister of the Ministry of Works had withheld wages from the workers of the construction team.

The financial news reported on the factory conditions and housing prices in various parts of Yanjing. The entertainment gossip was very interesting and made Xie Yiyao laugh.

All that was published was that someone stayed overnight in a brothel and was scratched in the face by his own wife, that a certain official was found to have private transactions with local merchants, and that the son of a certain high-ranking official actually raped a woman in public. Please look forward to tomorrow's report to find out what will happen next!
