The letter that Han Qingyun copied reached the Meng family in Beirong in mid-November.

The Meng family and Queen Meng arranged more than 30 top masters to try to sneak into Dayu from Yucheng, but they were caught red-handed by Li Jiren himself.

Li Jiren announced to the world that Beirong had sent people to assassinate Li Jixin, the second son of Prince Lin's palace, and all the assassins had been arrested.

What happened in Wuping County last year was the work of Beirong.

In order to clear the name of Prince Lin's Mansion and to avenge the massacre of the people in Wuping County, Li Jiren ordered Gao Siwei, Han Qi and others to lead an army of 150,000 each to march towards Beirong. Now they have captured Jiaozhou.

Li Jiren personally led an army of 200,000 to support the battle.

The news spread quickly throughout Dayu. Some people were excited, some were confused, and some were worried.

However, a few days later, an even more shocking news spread.

Emperor Zhaowen took advantage of the Jiyang army's attack on the Northern Rong and ordered General Lin Pingyuan to lead a million troops to attack Jiyang.

The court officials who were already dissatisfied with Emperor Zhaowen's request to attack Ji Yang, when they heard that Li Jiren was going to attack the Northern Rong, wrote letters one after another, requesting an order to withdraw Lin Pingyuan's army.

But how could Emperor Zhaowen give up such a rare opportunity?

Li Jixin's whereabouts were unknown, Prince Lin was in a coma, and Li Jiren led an army of 500,000 to fight against the Northern Rong.

Emperor Zhaowen himself had external support.

Ji Yang is in trouble both internally and externally. If he doesn't take action now, his mother will not let him go.

The people of Dayu were talking about it, and it finally turned into the word "shameless", but only they themselves knew who they were scolding.

The news that Lin Pingyuan was coming with a large army reached Jiyang, and Han Qingyun, the acting regent of Beiji State, issued a "Letter Questioning Emperor Zhaowen on Ten Crimes".

His first crime was that Emperor Zhaowen broke his promise and violated the promise made between Li's ancestors and Jiyang. He turned a blind eye to the natural disaster in Jiyang and even added insult to injury.

The second crime was that Emperor Zhaowen ignored the feelings of the Jiyang border troops who were guarding Dayu, and withheld military funds and salaries for four years, which disheartened the border troops.

The third crime was that Emperor Zhaowen disregarded the affection between brothers and the loyalty between uncle and nephew, and repeatedly assassinated Prince Lin, Prince Qing, Li Jiren, and Li Jixin, causing the Princess of Qing to have a miscarriage and suffer uterine injuries.

His fourth crime was that Emperor Zhaowen privately released a death row prisoner from Bashu County and allowed him to rob passing merchants at Pulu Mountain. His crimes were too numerous to list.

The fifth crime was that Emperor Zhaowen nurtured the remnants of Prince Mingyi, the assassins of the Dark Feather League, established the Dark Shadow Pavilion, abducted children, harmed civilians, and assassinated political enemies.

The sixth crime was that Emperor Zhaowen colluded with the enemy country and threatened the family of Zhao Qihua, the defender of Luoyang County. He took advantage of the fact that Prince Lin was seriously ill and the prince's son and second son went to the State of Yan to let the Northern Rong people enter Jiyang, causing the tragedy in Wuping County and putting the blame on Prince Lin.

His seventh crime was that Emperor Zhaowen killed all the maids and guards around the Empress Dowager, detained the Empress Dowager, tried to force her to sever her relationship with Prince Lin, and expel Prince Lin from the royal family.

The eighth crime was that Emperor Zhaowen, out of his own selfish desires, disregarded the lives of the people and destroyed all the seeds of the high-yield bean crop in Jiyang in his early years.

His ninth crime was that Emperor Zhaowen sought fame and reputation, was fond of showing off, fabricated auspicious signs, and appointed people based on personal connections. His confidants Chen Su, Xu Rui, Jiang Zhongqing and others exploited the people's wealth to enrich themselves, causing great hardship for the people.

The tenth crime was that Emperor Zhaowen was unfilial and unfaithful. He poisoned his biological father, Emperor Huiren, with the highly poisonous "residual incense", causing him to die in a lingering illness. He also took advantage of his elder brother, Prince Lin, who was seriously injured in a battle with the enemy, to poison Prince Lin with "sandalwood", causing him to sleep for years. He also poisoned Prince Lin's biological mother, Qi Miaowan, with "bone-eroding powder".

Along with the "Ten Crimes Letter to Emperor Zhaowen", there was also the "Declaration of Independence of Jiyang". Jiyang broke away from Dayu and became the capital of the Northern Ji State.

The "Ji Yang Declaration of Independence" stated that the Ji Yang military and civilians and Prince Lin's Palace had suffered unfair treatment, sacrifice, neglect and suppression for many years.

Even at the critical moment when the Jiyang Army attacked the Northern Rong, the Dayu court not only did not provide any support, but took advantage of the situation to rob.

The people of Ji Yang can be sacrificed and ignored, but they will never accept being betrayed by their own people, let alone the hidden arrows and butcher knives from their own court.

The establishment of the Beiji State aims to establish a fairer and more complete system for thousands of ordinary people.

All citizens of the Northern Ji State can obtain land according to population. No one, whether official or clan, is allowed to forcibly occupy other people's land. Violators will be severely punished.

The Beiji court arranged special personnel to teach the people how to grow high-yield crops in various places and provide them with high-yield crop seeds.

Defending the country is the responsibility of soldiers, not the people. The people of Jiyang are no longer subject to household registration restrictions and can trade, set up businesses, and settle down in other territories of Beiji State.

Beiji vigorously developed public schools and girls' schools. Children between the ages of six and ten, regardless of gender, could enroll in school. Depending on the region, the annual tuition fee was one to three taels.

Students who have achieved academic success in Dayu State, regardless of whether they are students, scholars or juren, can continue to take the imperial examinations in Beiji State.

Women are inherently weak, and anyone who bullies a woman will be punished with severe penalties such as flogging, chopping off hands, castration, and beheading, depending on the severity of the offense.

The victim is not guilty, but anyone who takes advantage of a woman's misfortune and verbally abuses her will be fined or detained. If the person is a relative of the woman, the punishment will be doubled.

All citizens of the Northern Ji Kingdom, both men and women, enjoy equal rights to education and advancement. Women can practice medicine, teach, engage in commerce, and become craftsmen. They can also enter the government through the imperial examinations...

Whether it was the "Ten Crimes Questioned to Emperor Zhaowen", the "Jiyang Declaration of Independence", or even the Jiyang New Deal, they all shocked the government and the public in Dayu.

Almost no one thought that Jiyang would become independent in this way.

It is a fact that he was ambitious, exploited the people, turned a blind eye to the natural disaster in Jiyang, and withheld military pay in Jiyang.

However, the Shadow Pavilion and the Pulu Mountain bandits were Emperor Zhaowen's men, and most of them were skeptical.

No matter how shameless Emperor Zhaowen was, he couldn't do such a thing, right?

After all, he is the king of a country.

But some people also believed that when the Shadow Pavilion and the Pulu Mountain bandits were wreaking havoc, Emperor Zhaowen was still just the unpopular Prince An.

Not many people believed that Emperor Zhaowen poisoned Emperor Huiren and detained the Empress Dowager, but most people believed that Prince Lin was framed and poisoned.

Four years ago, when Prince Lin returned to the capital to observe mourning, many people saw that Prince Lin, who had once been as energetic as a god, looked frail and sickly.

There's also the story of Princess Qing being assassinated, which led to her being barren for many years. It seems that back in Luocheng, Prince Qing and Prince An had a huge fight, and then the assassination took place...

There were so many shocking news that not many people paid attention to the dozens of pages of new policies of the Beiji State.

The voices cursing Prince Lin and his son, Han Qingyun, and those who rebelled against Tiangang and raised the status of women against the will of heaven were quickly drowned out by various discussions.

But what many people are most concerned about is the importance that the Beiji State attaches to women.

At Ziwei Academy, Principal Song Mingzhi and a group of teachers and students burst into tears as they read the copied regulations regarding the entry of women from the Northern Ji State into officialdom.

This is the only library in Los Angeles that is open only to women. Xie Shan's eyes first turned slightly red, and then she smiled gently.

In Kunning Palace, Ruan Xinyu smiled foolishly, Chunlan was heartbroken, she would rather her young lady cry bitterly.

Prince Lin is indeed a man with a different mind than ordinary people, but why would he hurt her young lady?

A young girl from the Hua family, a prominent family in Lin'an Prefecture, sneaked into the family temple with a package.

"Sister, are you really going to Jiyang? The imperial army will soon enter Jiyang. It won't be too late to go after the world is stabilized."

The woman opposite was soft and thin: "If I continue to stay in the ancestral temple, I will not live long. Even if I die on the way to Jiyang, it is what my heart desires. But don't worry, my life is still useful. I will not let myself die so easily."

The girl hugged the woman opposite her, tears streaming down her face.

"Take care, sis."
