Died of old age, and you tell me this is a life simulation?

If I had known what kind of person Zhou Dian was, why would I bother with him?

Yang Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly: "So, if I, Yang Xiao, were to become the leader, you would never accept it."

"That's right!" Zhou Dian said carelessly, "I can only accept you as a deputy leader, but I can't accept you as the real leader!"

Yang Xiao suddenly laughed, which made everyone a little surprised and suspicious. Could it be that Zhou Dian’s words made him completely disgusted and he wanted to beat him to death?

If this is the case, then they need to give proper advice and mediation.

Firstly, it's the principle of "the lips and teeth are cold". If Zhou Dian is killed, will they be killed in the future? Secondly, the Five Wanderers have been friends for many years. Zhou Dian's words may be a bit foul, but it's not enough to cost him his life...

However, before he could open his mouth, Yang Xiao said, "Since you don't accept me, Yang Xiao, then what about my daughter? Are you convinced?"

As he spoke, he also looked at the other four Five Scattered People: "And you guys, are you convinced?"

Everyone was startled.

Zhou Dian was also at a loss for words and could only say, "Ms. Yang, you are so capable. I, Zhou Dian, am naturally convinced, but don't expect me, Zhou Dian, to be convinced by you. You are you, and your daughter is your daughter. They are not the same thing!"

"You, you! You're so stupid!" Peng Yingyu cursed him and then looked at Yang Xiao: "Does Yang Zuo Shi mean that the position of leader should be held by Lady Yang?"

Leng Qian, Zhang Zhong and Shuo Bu De were all concentrating.

If that's the case, then there's really nothing to say.

Zhou Dian should have been angry after being scolded, but after hearing what came to his mind, he was a little stunned.

Yang Xiao said solemnly, "That's right! My daughter will take the position of leader, commanding the entire Bright Summit! If you all join, you must also follow her as your leader! What do you think? Do you still have any concerns?"

Everyone subconsciously looked at the awe-inspiring figure in the distance.

Monk Shuo Bude and Peng Yingyu were the first to express their willingness to join and respect him as the leader. Zhang Zhong and Leng Qian followed closely behind. Zhou Dian scratched his head and was unable to refute.

To say...

Honoring a woman as the leader would have been impossible in the past.

Although there were cases of women holding high positions within the Ming Cult, such as the Purple-Robed Dragon King, this was a special case. Firstly, she was a saint sent by the Persian Grand Master, and therefore must be treated with respect. Secondly, she was the adopted daughter of the Cult Leader, Yang Dingtian. Thirdly, her beauty was unparalleled, and she had many admirers and adorers within the Cult, who were often humbled by her.

Because of all these things, the Purple-Robed Dragon King became the Dharma Protector, and he is the chief of the four Dharma Protectors.

But to be honest, the symbolic meaning is greater than the practical meaning. The Purple-Robed Dragon King does not have much real power. His status in the sect is not low, but it is far from being the leader.

Logically speaking, it would be difficult for the Five Scattered People to accept that a woman could dominate the world.

But... the times are different now. Daqian is too powerful, and its social atmosphere has a profound influence on the world. There are countless women holding high positions and real power. The famous Commander Zhou alone is a woman.

And Yang Buhui's martial arts power is too beyond common sense.

The five wanderers were astonished by this, and had no idea of ​​resisting, and were convinced wholeheartedly.

After the matter was settled, Yang Xiao took the five wanderers to meet Yang Buhui.

Speaking of these five scattered people, although there are only five people, they are still quite useful. How can they not have some extraordinary abilities to be able to hold this position? With their joining, this Mingjiao army will be more handy.

After that, many former members of the Ming Cult were invited by Yang Xiao, further strengthening their influence.

Under the leadership of Yang Buhui, the Mingjiao army won victory after victory and gradually expanded the territory they occupied.

Chapter 570: The Talent Show! Ling Tui Si! Decision!

The movements of the Mingjiao army attracted the attention of many neighboring countries. The Gaochang Uighurs and Tubo were even more shocked and exhausted from responding.

But in Daqian, there was peace and prosperity.

In addition to the orderly implementation of various policies and plans according to the orders of the central government, if there is anything worth mentioning and talked about, it is the folk talent show.

The tone is set from above, issued by the Ministry of Rites, and implemented by local governments. People of appropriate age in the society can take the initiative to participate.

As soon as the official announcement of the talent show came out, there was a craze in many places in Daqian.

The practice of selecting concubines has existed since ancient times, but due to differences in execution and policies, it is prone to various drawbacks and adverse effects, which has led to the fear of ordinary people. In order to prevent their daughters from being selected or being blackmailed by officials for profit, all kinds of absurd things happen from time to time, such as hasty marriages, false reporting of household registration and age, hiding and fleeing. Some extreme cases even resort to self-harm and disfigurement to avoid the selection. It can be seen that the selection of concubines is not a good thing among the people, but a disaster that destroys families.

However, the prestige and popular support that Daqian had accumulated since its uprising were naturally incomparable to those of previous dynasties. In addition, Emperor Fang Han of Daqian had long been regarded as a sage and a god by people everywhere. Therefore, when the notice of the beauty pageant was posted, there was no panic in various places. Instead, they were eager to try and actively participated.

Especially after learning about the details of the draft, it caused an even greater sensation.

It should be noted that there has never been any compensation in the selection of concubines. Girls from common people's families have to obey unconditionally as long as they are selected. However, Daqian has clearly stipulated various rules. Even if they are only selected to be an ordinary palace maid, they will receive a monthly salary. The treatment is not bad. If they are lucky in the future, they may become a female official or be granted a noble title.

There are not many disadvantages, but there are many advantages. Whether out of gratitude or utilitarianism, people from all over the country have shown great enthusiasm for this.

certainly......

The strict implementation by local officials also played an important role.

Otherwise, if extortion starts behind the scenes, even the best policies can be turned into harsh and evil ones.

Jinghu area.

A middle-aged man dressed as a scholar, with a dignified and elegant face but a sinister look in his eyes, was looking at the text of the notice with a burning gaze, secretly saying in his heart that God was helping him, and then quickly returned to make arrangements.

It is said that this man was named Ling Tui Si, and he was originally a local official of the Song Dynasty. At that time, Daqian had just occupied the two territories of Jiangnan and divided its armies into six routes to capture the best places in the south, including the Jinghu area. He was in the middle of it and soon realized the strength of Daqian's army and its various extraordinary features. So he thought about it and, after weighing the pros and cons, surrendered and offered the city early, which brought him good benefits and a position and rank of not small or large.

In terms of power, it has certainly shrunk significantly, but there is no other way. This is necessary to survive.

certainly......

In order to avoid the public trial system, he dealt with all the dark and secret matters before surrendering the city. He eliminated all his subordinates and thugs who knew his background, and made it clear that he was innocent.

Fortunately, in the past he looked down on the common people at the bottom of society, thinking they could not make any money. He always targeted the lucrative positions and big businessmen, doing things secretly. Who wouldn't praise him for being honest and upright in public?

If there is any public resentment, it will be impossible to cover it up.

This finishing move, coupled with his good reputation as an official, as well as the merits of surrendering the city and voluntarily submitting, enabled him to successfully avoid the fate of being arrested and put on trial, but Ling Tui Si was not satisfied with this.

After spending some time in the Daqian system, he deeply understood the profound foundation and strong national strength of Daqian!

He naturally wanted to continue climbing up and reach a higher position!

In the past, he suffered from lack of connections. In addition, under the rule of Daqian, there were many rules and regulations for the administration of officials and the laws were strict. Many of his methods could not be used, and he did not dare to do anything illegal or cruel. Although there were ways to rise, they were inevitably slow.

This is the drawback of focusing on power politics and neglecting governance.

But now is an excellent opportunity, maybe we can find a shortcut to Zhongnan.

After years of carefully nurturing my daughter, it is finally time to reap the rewards.

the other side.

Yue Buqun returned home with a heavy heart. After dinner, he did not go to the study immediately. Instead, he looked at Yue Lingshan without saying a word, with a pensive expression on his face.

His daughter is just the right age and has good looks, so this might not be... an opportunity.

Ning Zhongze and Yue Lingshan were both a little surprised by Yue Buqun's abnormal behavior.

In the past, after meals, wouldn’t I always go straight to the study to practice or work?

This is rare today.

"Dad, why are you looking at me like that?" Yue Lingshan was secretly puzzled and touched her face, thinking that there was something dirty. Ning Zhongze was also puzzled, but soon she thought of something and her expression changed slightly: "Brother, are you thinking...?"

Yue Buqun hummed, "I do have this idea. Shan'er is just the right person for the job. She might be chosen, or she might have a bit of luck."

Ning Zhongze was quite hesitant: "But Shan'er has good grades in school. If she follows the right path, she won't have to worry about not having a good future. Why would she go to a place like that?"

As the saying goes, once you enter the palace, it is as deep as the sea. It is a place where no one is allowed to see anyone.

If Shan'er were to really go, let alone whether she could succeed, even if she did, I'm afraid she would never see the emperor again in her life.

How can Ning Zhongze feel at ease?

Yue Buqun frowned slightly and said unhappily, "What future can compare to the wealth of the palace?"

Yue Lingshan was confused at first, but at this point, she finally understood.

Her face was covered with red clouds, and she lowered her head and dared not not speak.

Ning Zhongze sighed, thinking that if the emperor liked it, it would be valuable, but what if he didn't...

As if he could see through her thoughts, Yue Buqun said, "Going to the palace isn't the only path. If you can get into the system and become a female official, that would be quite a blessing."

Ning Zhongze had nothing to say this time. The female official system was indeed a good place to go.

"Shan'er, what do you think?"

"Ah? I, I don't know..." Yue Lingshan was a little shy and uneasy.

Yue Buqun had made up his mind: "Send Shan'er's name to the roster tomorrow. If she can get in, that's great. If not, that's fine too."

Ning Zhongze seemed to want to say something but stopped himself in the end.

(ps: Asking for custom orders, full orders, flowers, evaluations, monthly tickets, comments, and support~)

Chapter 571: The end of the first year of Daqian! The power of repaying is comparable to the perfection of the inner strength realm!

There are special female officials to preside over the folk beauty pageants, and there are also special female clerks in charge of the matching and screening.

Of course, this kind of thing cannot be accomplished in a short period of time. It requires layers of screening, and it may not be enough without several months or half a year.

Moreover, this matter is not a top priority after all. Daqian's greater focus is still on the implementation of various guidelines, policies and plans.

Five months passed quickly.

The first year after the founding of Daqian came to an end here.

The achievements of this year were naturally remarkable. Not to mention the expansion of territory by swallowing up the territories of Western Xia, Liao and Jin, the new policies in various places were basically successfully implemented.

The three territories of Western Xia, Liao, and Jin were also initially absorbed. The basic policies of land distribution and land registration were completed. The grassroots system and official system were established, and the construction of schools was gradually completed.

Moreover, as high-yield crops like Shennong rice were harvested in succession in various places, the national treasury of Daqian and granaries in various places quickly became full.

The fiscal revenue and expenditure, which was originally in a very extreme state, quickly turned into a good positive cycle.

Since most of the initial investment at the local level has been completed and the project is completely on the right track, without this large amount of consumption expenditure, the burden is naturally much lighter.

In addition, due to the promotion of spiritual plants and elixir refining, elixirs for spiritual practice have gradually been popularized within the official system, military system, and school groups of Daqian.

The overall progress of cultivation has begun to show a significant improvement.

One very obvious and intuitive point is that Fang Han's power of feedback from his talent as [Martial Ancestor] has become increasingly powerful!

From one or two days of feeding back, a person who is not familiar with martial arts can be elevated to the top level! Now, it has become a day of feeding back, and it can be elevated to a level comparable to the perfection of the [Internal Strength Realm]!

After Fang Han felt it carefully, he was secretly shocked.

This [Martial Ancestor] talent is truly a bug within a bug!

What does it mean that one can achieve the perfect level of [Internal Strength Realm] in just one day?

This represents the current him. Just relying on this talent, one day of leanness is equivalent to what he gained in a lifetime in the second round of life simulation!

and......

Even more exaggerated!

Back then, before his return, he was nothing more than the limit of a human being, a martial arts grandmaster.

Because he specialized in the [Northern Sea Divine Art], his ability to accumulate internal force was much stronger than that of an average martial arts grandmaster. Therefore, an average martial arts grandmaster's internal force was at the late stage of the [Internal Force Realm], but his internal force at that time could barely be considered close to the perfection of the [Internal Force Realm].

In other words, the power of his current repayment in just one day is one level higher than the nearly two hundred years of cultivation in the second round of life simulation!

I can only say that this mythical talent is truly... terrifying!

And this kind of miraculous feedback from the orthodox teachings is only a part of Fang Han's daily improvement.

In addition, his independent practice and the passive practice of the internal meridian circulation have brought him considerable improvement.

After several months of this, his cultivation in the Zhenyuan realm has increased a lot!

Fang Han slowly breathed in and out and returned to his original state, then stopped practicing.

I opened my eyes and felt warmth and softness in his arms.

Caressing it carefully.

"Um......"
