Chapter 895: Enthronement Ceremony, Pioneer Order

As the fluctuations of the vitality subsided, Ao Kun stared at Ling Feng deeply, at this time he had already seen that Ling Feng was able to resist his peak fist intent, relying on the divine sword in his hand, the quality of this divine sword was definitely a sixth-order superb divine weapon. Because of this, he was even more sure that Ling Feng's identity was not simple, and he had no idea of continuing to investigate. Immediately, his figure suddenly turned into a golden divine dragon with a length of 100 feet and flew away.

At this time, the Heavenly Machine Pavilion Lord looked at Ling Feng with a strange expression, as if he was a little incredulous, this matter was over? He originally thought that Dragon Monarch Ao Kun would be able to force out some of Ling Feng's hole cards, so that he could be more calm when facing Ling Feng.

At this time, Ling Feng glanced at him with an unkind expression and said, "I will withdraw the people from Qingzhou and Lingzhou as soon as possible." But I hope you don't meddle in the grievances between the Tang Dynasty and the Wu Dynasty, otherwise you will definitely regret it. ”

After Ling Feng finished speaking, the Imperial Sword Divine Sword suddenly turned into a white sword light and flew away.

Half an hour later, Ling Feng returned to the Canglang Sword Sect and continued to cultivate, using the True Dragon Essence to nourish the central spirit. His cultivation realm is still too low in the end. If it weren't for the Chaos True Dragon Sword in his hand, even if his sword intent was unparalleled, he wouldn't be able to stop Ao Kun's terrifying fist intent. Therefore, he was ready to condense the Chaos Golden Pill. And the speed of the nine refining of the jade liquid has a lot to do with the cultivation of the divine soul, so he decided to condense the central spirit first, fuse the divine soul, and make the yang god become a great achievement.

Time passed, and three days passed in the blink of an eye.

Ling Feng came out of the customs and sensed the progress of his cultivation, and the central spirit had already been condensed and formed, and it was close to Dacheng. This is also because with the abundant blood element support, the true dragon essence can be quickly restored, and the progress of cultivation will be so fast.

Immediately, Haruko came in, hugged her fists and said, "Your Majesty, the palace has been preliminarily rebuilt, and the enthronement ceremony will be held at noon." ”

Ling Feng nodded and said, "Go down." ”

Immediately, Ling Feng and Liu Xueyan had lunch together, and the enthronement ceremony was held at noon.

He had already experienced it once before when Dongyi was the lord of Dongyi, but this time it was more grand. Although today's Wu Dynasty only has Cangzhou, Yanzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou, it is far superior to Dongyi.

When he ascended the throne, in addition to the important officials of the Wu Dynasty, there were also elders from the six major sects present.

After a series of ceremonies, Ling Feng sat on the dragon chair in the palace hall and officially ascended the throne, for some reason, he was still called Emperor Wu.

Immediately, Yan Hong announced Ling Feng's holy decree, and generally the new emperor ascended the throne to amnesty the world and win the hearts of the people. However, Ling Feng announced the pioneer order.

Those who go south to clear the land will receive a three-year tax exemption and a series of subsidies to ensure that their land can live before the harvest. From the Great Chu Dynasty to the present, after three hundred years of land annexation, many people have lost their land and can only farm for the landlords, and their lives have been very difficult. Therefore, the people are also excited.

Moreover, in order to ensure the safety of the people, Ling Feng will organize an army of 300,000 to go south to clear the wasteland. He withdrew nearly 500,000 troops from the four prefectures of Liang, Yan, Ling, and Qingzhou, and naturally it was impossible to raise all of them in Cangzhou, which would increase huge financial expenditures, and it was undoubtedly a good choice to go south to open up wasteland. As for food, it is not difficult, he has a lot of Qiankun now, and he can use it to transport food. In addition, you can hunt wild beasts and pick fruits. It may be a little tougher at first, but once you get through the first year, the rest will be easy.

And for big forces such as families and sects, the Pioneer Order has an additional reward, that is, to obtain a knighthood.

The title is divided into duke, marquis, earl, son, male five, etc., according to the size, population, and prosperity of the territory, the title will be obtained, generally the person who develops a town, obtains the title of baron, develops the land of a county, and is named a viscount, and the land of a county is titled, and the earl is named a marquis in the land of four counties, and the land of a state is a duke. And it's not just titles, but when these territories are carved out, one-tenth of them will be used as fiefs and will be replaced by hereditary succession.

The enthusiasm of the ancient people for the feudal lords and ministers was beyond imagination, especially some second- and third-rate families and gangs. Their development in the local state and county has reached the limit, and other interests have been taken by the great family. Pioneering became their way out of the family business to the next level.

And those big factions and thousand-year-old families are also very covetous of the demon beasts in the wild forest, especially the top demon beasts, with their fur, bones, essence and blood, all of them are treasures, which are more attractive to them than titles.

Of course, any policy has advantages and disadvantages, as the pioneer order spread, many people went south with the imperial army, and the economy of Cangzhou, Yanzhou, Yangzhou, and Jiaozhou inevitably declined, which lost the interests of many families and caused a lot of controversy. If it is not handled properly, the policy will change, and it will inevitably cause a backlash from some big families, especially the thousand-year-old families such as Han, Song, and Liu.

Fortunately, Ling Feng had already established Lingyun Pavilion and gathered enough government talents, and now Ling Feng has set up a cabinet with Lingyun Pavilion as the backbone to assist in handling political affairs. Among them, Concubine You and Yan Hong's government affairs ability is extremely strong, and under their proper handling, the number of southbound pioneers is maintained at a relatively stable number, which not only ensures the smooth progress of the reclamation cause, but also does not have too much impact on the economy of the original four states.

In order to retain the people to farm for them, the landlords and families also had to reduce exploitation, and the people's living standards improved as a result. The southward reclamation of land requires a large amount of grain, farm tools, etc., which has also stimulated consumption and led to the development of some industries. The entire Wu Dynasty entered a period of vigorous development.

And Ling Feng became the shopkeeper, concentrating on cultivation, and accompanied Liu Xueyan and Tong Yan in his spare time. His purpose in establishing the Wu Dynasty was not to restrain himself, but to establish a foundation for his relatives, friends, and subordinates to support the resources they needed to cultivate. Moreover, this Wu Dynasty is not his alone, the six factions of the righteous path have a share of this cake, and his role is purely to act as a deterrent by force.

In addition, it is worth mentioning that the Ice Spirit Dao re-established the mountain gate in Yanzhou, and the location of the establishment was the original mountain gate of the Ten Thousand Beasts Sect. And the Ice Spirit Dao also rejoined the Righteous Path Alliance, and the six factions of the Righteous Path became the seven factions.

After the Tang King Fang Hong gradually completely controlled the six states in front of him, such as Zhongzhou and Youzhou, he also proclaimed himself emperor in the imperial capital of Zhongzhou and established the Tang Dynasty, and the whole world entered a period of confrontation between the north and the south.

And with the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty, Buddhism has finally emerged, showing great energy. Under the persuasion of the Nine Lotus Holy Monks, who presided over the Great Buddha Temple, the Xirong Kingdom returned to the Tang Dynasty.

The Donkey Kong Temple was also forced by Ling Feng to move to the northern grasslands, and Venerable King Kong personally persuaded the Beidi tribes to submit to the Tang Dynasty.

Lotus Temple and Pure Land Temple went to Dongyi and said that Dongyi had been surrendered. Even Maeda Toshicho, who was given the demon seed by Ling Feng, had to lie dormant temporarily.

The Moke Temple and the Bodhi Temple went to the Western Regions, and the countries of the Western Regions surrendered one after another. In less than a month, the territory of the Tang Dynasty has nearly doubled and entered its heyday. Buddhism also flourished because of this, and was canonized as the state religion by the Tang Dynasty to contain the seven schools of righteousness.
