Che Qinian was demoted to Yazhou eight years ago. Now that he is back, he is too old and can no longer do anything.

Su Yuejian asked Chen Ming to find him a house that was closer to the Shen family.

Because Master Shen was almost the same age as him, Su Yuejian wanted to give the two old men a place to talk.

After settling Old Man Che, Che Qinian looked at the new house, which was fully equipped with daily necessities, and felt deeply moved. He was finally back.

The court has not forgotten him!

I learned that his family was also on their way to the capital and would arrive soon, and then Mr. Che would be reunited with his family.

Che Qinian knelt down and bowed!

On the way, he heard others calling her the Divine Emperor, "Please accept my greetings. I have no virtue or ability to ask the Divine Emperor to personally take me to the capital. I am only doing my duty."

"Back then, you were treated unfairly and exiled to Yazhou. It's not an exaggeration to say it was the end of the world.

You traveled through mountains and rivers and went through untold hardships to reach that barren land.

You spent eight years encouraging people to study, farm, and use medicine, and to search for springs.

Now, 60% of the population of Yazhou County has survived the end of the world, and this is an invaluable contribution!

Now that you are old, you should enjoy your retirement."

When Che Qinian looked up again, he was crying uncontrollably. All the hardship and sadness he had endured over the past eight years had been seen by the Divine Emperor.

Su Yuejian helped the old man up, "You will see how prosperous the Great Jing Kingdom is in the future."

Twenty days later, all the people who had returned to Beijing to receive their rewards had gathered.

Chaoyang Hall.

Thirty-three people dressed in bright court robes, marched in square steps, and slowly walked from outside the hall to the sound of ritual music.

Every time an official walked slowly, a ceremonial officer would loudly praise his political achievements.

This is a great honor for every upright official.

When all thirty-three people had walked through the red carpet that was rolled out from outside the hall, the Divine Emperor, hand in hand with the Human Emperor, walked down from the high seat.

Thirty-three people were awarded gold and jade honorary trophies.

This novel and ceremonial audience won the gratitude of all the ministers.

When reciting those political achievements, many officials wiped away tears.

In the past year, natural disasters occurred one after another. They went through too much and were under tremendous pressure.

Seeing so many colleagues going through the same situation as themselves, or even experiencing more and more difficulties, everyone can empathize.

It was especially so when I saw Che Qinian, an almost 70-year-old man with completely white hair and beard.

In the extreme heat of 70 degrees Celsius, not only did they survive themselves, but they also saved 60% of the population. It's extremely inspiring and I all admire them from the bottom of my heart.

Since Che Qinian is old, returning to Beijing can be considered an honorable retirement.

The Emperor gave him a temporary position as a Grand Secretary in the Hanlin Academy, where he received some salary from the imperial court. It wasn't a big job, but he was respected.

Su Yuejian was very satisfied with this arrangement. The old man himself also felt that it was a happy ending after all the hardships. He did not expect that the family would be reunited in the end. He prostrated himself three times to thank the Emperor of Gods and the Emperor of Man for their gifts.

After the ceremony, Su Yuejian took out the ingredients from the end of the world from the space and gave them to the imperial kitchen, asking them to prepare them.

Of course, Chunlan was called over in advance to provide technical guidance.

After experiencing the end of the world, all thirty-three people were emaciated, and Su Yuejian felt sad when seeing this.

All conditions were difficult at the time and everyone paid a heavy price, but now we have finally made it through.

Delicious dishes were served, including a lot of game.

Of course, there are many seasonal vegetables, as well as fruits and melons.

It has been a long time since they last saw these things.

Although the situation has gradually improved, every piece of land has been damaged and there are a lot of things to deal with. Food cannot be grown in a day, and it will take at least another half a year for the hard times to get better.

The imperial court exempted taxes for one year last year.

This year we will collect one-third of the taxes of previous years, next year we will collect two-thirds of the taxes, and the year after that we will restore the previous tax levels.

These officials also have to calculate how long the food will last.

The officials ate the delicious food with tears in their eyes.

Su Yuejian asked everyone to eat as much as they wanted.

There will be gifts for everyone when you leave.

When the officials heard that there was a free gift, they all ate to their heart's content.

This is the first time in this year that I have eaten so much meat.

Seeing how the Emperor of God had rewarded everyone, everyone felt relieved, knowing that the end of the world was about to end.

Although disasters will still occur in some places, it will not happen one after another across the country like before.
