Fantasy: After transmigrating, I effortlessly became a god.

The arrival of Feng Wuhen turned the pleasant atmosphere into one of oppression.

Feng Zhicheng has taken over the rule of Guangxiang Kingdom from the Lu family. Although the major powers outwardly submit to Feng Feiyang, they are secretly engaging in various underhanded tactics. Their orders cannot be implemented, leading to turmoil in the Guangxiang Kingdom's court. The major powers are restless and eager to rise up and replace Feng Zhicheng as king.

The six major powers in Guangxiang Kingdom are: the Lu family of the Imperial Dynasty, the City of Wind, Mo Yuan, Fan Lang, the Academy, and the Guardians.

The Lu family and their guardians were wiped out, Yu Chengdi of the academy was killed, and the dean is absent and currently remains silent. Mo Yuan and Fan Lang support Feng Feiyang's succession to the throne, leaving no force in Guangxiang Kingdom capable of opposing Feng Feiyang's ascension to the throne.

What they didn't expect was that the powerful families wanted to take this opportunity to expand their influence, and some local powers even wanted to rebel. As a result, the officials formed factions and refused to submit to management.

Feng Feiyang has not yet ascended the throne, and his position is not legitimate. This is the perfect opportunity to divide the world among the powerful families. No family or clan with the ability to benefit from this opportunity is willing to let it go.

They lack the ability to resist, but they have the strength to struggle. They cannot defeat Feng Feiyang, Fan Lang, and Mo Yuan, but they can overturn the table and cause chaos in Guangxiang Kingdom.

"The powerful clans have united into two factions. One faction is led by Xia Wenrui, the Grand Secretary. The Xia family has 200,000 local troops in various prefectures and cities, making them extremely powerful. He claims that foreign envoys, officials, and the Crown Prince have been killed and demands that you be handed over to give the foreign envoys an explanation. In reality, he wants to use this opportunity to seize more military power. The other faction is led by Grand Commandant Shen Hong. His family controls the salt business nationwide and is incredibly wealthy. They want to use this opportunity to take over the refined iron business and raise elite troops. Previously, they served the Guardians and have stores all over the country, making them equally powerful."

After listening to Feng Wuhen's words, Zheng Qian understood what he meant. These forces actually wanted to take this opportunity to divide up the interests of the imperial court and share the business of the whole country.

These forces are deeply rooted in Guangxiang Kingdom. Their reason for causing trouble is simple: Zheng Qian killed many people last night. These people were all from various powerful forces, and even their close relatives. So they caused trouble at the morning court session today.

Feng Feiyang wields immense power, Mo Yuan is the head of the civil officials, and Fan Lang is the Grand General who protects the country. When the three of them unite, they have the final say in the entire Guangxiang Kingdom.

The Xia family controls the local army, which is nominally under Fan Lang's command, but in reality, they are all their private armies. The Shen family is wealthy, and if the two families join forces, they can overthrow the powerful government and establish their own independent regime.

"As soon as our decree to confer upon you the title of Duke of Zhenguo came out this morning, they have been opposing it. I have thought about it and decided that I should inform you of this matter to prevent them from taking action in secret."

Feng Wuhen is very busy. He has a lot of messy affairs in the court that he needs to deal with. He hasn't rested for a second since last night and is exhausted.

Zheng Qian poured tea for Feng Wuhen and said calmly, "Established families are key to stabilizing national security, but they are also key to affecting national security. Ninety-nine percent of the nation's wealth is in the hands of these families, which is not conducive to governance and even less conducive to national development. Since they are making trouble, this is also an opportunity."

Feng Wuhen gasped. Zheng Qian's meaning was very clear: let the aristocratic families make trouble if they wanted to; this was an opportunity to kill them all.

He and Feng Feiyang could not bring themselves to eliminate these powerful families because the country needed their stability to help govern the people.

The advantage is that it is easy to manage, but the disadvantage is that the power of powerful families is growing, and it is not uncommon for them to claim territory as their own.

In every country, there are powerful clans that control the nation's destiny. None of the fifty countries have been able to resolve this phenomenon, and naturally, neither Feng Wuhen nor Feng Feiyang can solve it either.

Feng Wuhen's arrival today was actually to inquire about Zheng Qian's strategies for governing the country. They had spent the entire night carefully reading his book, "New Century, New Unit," and gained profound insights. Therefore, he came to seek Zheng Qian's advice on governing the country.

Perspective influences decision-making.

While enjoying the tea, Zheng Qian also shared his philosophy. As for how Feng Wuhen and Dong Hao would choose, that was their business.

"The balanced distribution of wealth is a prerequisite for social stability. The first step in governance is to abolish the feudal system of powerful families, take back the land from them, and distribute it to the people so that they can have land to cultivate. The second step is to abolish the class system so that everyone can study, practice martial arts, and do business, thus achieving equality for all."

"With the implementation of the two-step management plan, the next step will be to completely eliminate the power of aristocratic families. The third step is to require all officials to take an exam to eliminate the monopoly of official positions by aristocratic families and support children from poor families to enter the court. After taking office, officials in the same position must be transferred to different places or departments every five or three years to reduce the situation of one family dominating and officials protecting each other."

"All major decisions must be voted on by officials of the corresponding rank, not decided by one person alone. If any decision or matter goes wrong, a lifelong accountability system will be adopted, and all participants will be held responsible. Only by managing and governing people through the system can fairness and justice be reflected, the authority of the court be demonstrated as inviolable, and the people's approval be gained. This will naturally dismantle powerful clans and achieve true unification."

Feng Wuhen was taking notes very seriously, as were Dong Hao and the other three. Their heads were buzzing. Putting everything else aside, the four words "equality for all" were enough to overturn their understanding of the world.

From birth, they have been high and mighty, never thinking of being equal to ordinary people. But when Zheng Qian proposed it, they had to think deeply about it and put it into practice.

Simply put, perspective determines thought, and they believed Zheng Qian was right.

They were deeply inspired by Zheng Qian's three-step plan to dismantle powerful clans, and finally found a way to eliminate the cancerous growth of these clans.

Feng Wuhen didn't leave after finishing taking notes. He hesitated several times, as if he wanted to say something, but Zheng Qian instantly understood what he meant.

"Wuhen, I'm sorry to have troubled you this morning. This afternoon I will go to court with you to meet Xia Wenrui and Shen Hong. However, the aftereffects may be quite strong, so you should be prepared."

Feng Wuhen was overjoyed: "You truly are a good brother. With you in court, the problem will surely be solved."

Feng Wuhen doesn't know how strong the aftereffects will be; he'll just have to cooperate when the time comes.

Dong Hao hurriedly said, "Brother Wuhen, I would like to apply to participate in the morning assembly this afternoon, as I would like to learn something."

Li Sheng also stated: "Just now I had Zheng Qian's permission to stay by his side before he left, learning his new ideas."

Zhu Qi: "Me too, I want to learn too, I'm applying to follow Zheng Qian to study."

Liao Minyi: "You can't leave me behind. I also really want to improve, and I can't miss out on learning opportunities."

Feng Wuhen looked at Zheng Qian, who understood his meaning and said with a smile, "We should learn together, make progress together, and develop together. Since everyone wants to participate, let's face the problems in the court together and summarize them together afterwards so that we can make progress together."

Dong Hao and his three companions were overjoyed. Entering another country's court was a form of interference in politics and was not permitted. Their entry into the Guangxiang Kingdom's court was also a form of learning.

Zheng Qian stood up: "Wuhen, before entering the court, I need some information and I also need to meet with General Zuo Han first. Can you arrange it for me?"

Since he was going to the imperial court, Zheng Qian needed to make the necessary preparations.
