(Thank you very much for the support of 'TM Tianlan', 'Smoldering Pot', 'Book Friends 38965322', 'Xu Bodhi', 'Weird Coffee ii' and monthly tickets.)

The first National Day Grand Court Meeting since the founding of Da'an has finally arrived under much anticipation.

Before dawn, the main road of Yangzhou City was full of teams heading towards the palace.

There are also quite a few teams patrolling the city, but last night on the National Day Eve, order was maintained, and the noisy ones must have not slept well. They woke up early in the morning and were not very energetic. Everyone was yawning and going to work. of.

In Huangchengqian Street, the number of officials who went to court gradually increased, and many of them were familiar with each other and greeted each other.

Although Wang Junlin didn't pay much attention to etiquette, in this era, some deeply rooted things would be difficult to completely change even the emperor of a country.

For example, there are regulations on the number of guards that officials of different ranks and positions can bring with them.

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling are the two highest officials in the court of Da'an Kingdom, and they can bring a hundred guards. Others have different official ranks, and the number of guards decreases in turn.

So, when looking at the number of people above 50, officials with low status hurriedly avoided to the side of the road, letting the two prime ministers or the chiefs of various ministries and generals of the legions go one step ahead.

Outside the main gate of the palace, although Shen Guoer had a secret fight with No. 3 last night, she still arrived early.

As His Majesty's most confidant's meritorious service to the founding of the country, and his relationship with His Majesty as a brother and sister, coupled with the fact that he is in charge of the spy organization of the Security Office, he has countless spies and masters in his hands. If it was a man, he would naturally have no shortage of flatterers around him. But she is a woman, and her reputation is not very good now.

So, apart from Li Xuanba, Luo Shixin, Shan Xiongxin, Zhang Tiangang and other old acquaintances around Wang Junlin, a very small number of female officials such as Yang Kongchan stepped forward to chat with each other from time to time.

Other than that, not many people dared to strike up a conversation with Shen Guoer. Even if they bumped into each other, they would just salute respectfully and cautiously, and then quickly backed away.

However, unlike Shen Guoer, who is too lazy to talk nonsense with some people, although Yang Kongchan, the head of state business in the Da'an Empire, is also a female official, she is much more tactful in dealing with people, even Wei Zheng, the chief inspector. Including officials, there are no important officials in the court who have a bad relationship with her.

Of course, the two prime ministers Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling are always surrounded by the most courteous officials.

According to the rules established by Wang Junlin when he founded the country, one of the contents of the annual National Day is to reward meritorious officials.

Therefore, some results of the imperial court's accounting credit have already been circulated recently.

In addition to the chief generals of the top ten legions and the chief officials of various departments, the few young dark horses and upstarts who stand out among them have attracted wide attention and are extremely dazzling.

For example, Huo Huaiming, chief officer of the National Security Department's Military Intelligence Department, and Bai Xiaobo, deputy general of the SEAL Corps.

These two made contributions no less than the chief general of the legion and the chief officers of the six major departments.

Huo Huaiming has always been Shen Guoer's confidant, and he has made a lot of great achievements in the Military Intelligence Office before. However, due to the special nature of the work of the Military Intelligence Office, his reputation has not been spread, and many people inside and outside the court do not know about it, so that During the previous attack on Huainan, Wei Daoer's subordinates, the leader of the Steel Saber Legion, accidentally wiped out Huo Huaiming's family. In the end, a large number of people were implicated in the death of a large number of people, and they were demoted.

Even Wei Dao'er almost lost his status as the commander of the Steel Sword Army because of this.

What really made Huo Huaiming well-known inside and outside the court, and even called the upstart and dark horse of the Da'an Empire, was when Huo Huaiming was in charge of and specifically planned the rebellion of the six ethnic groups in Nanzhao during the attack on the Liang Kingdom, and contained them. Gaining at least 100,000 troops from the Liang State played an important strategic role in the overall war for the Da'an Kingdom's three-way army to capture the Liang State, and its role was no less than that of the First-Route Army.

Bai Xiaobo, the deputy general of the Navy Seal Corps, made great achievements in battle. He made great contributions when Yu Wenzhiji rebelled and forced Yang Guang to death. , the performance is very prominent.

When attacking the land of Sichuan and Shu before, Bai Xiaobo used 5,000 troops to cleverly use the power of the Wubarians to establish a base behind the enemy in Liang State, and played a very important strategy and tactics when he captured the two counties in the south of Sichuan and Shu and later attacked Liang State It saved a lot of food and grass, and played an important role in keeping the Da'an army active and maintaining morale.

It has even been rumored for a long time that Huang Shaoqiu, the leader of the Navy Seal Corps, trained and fought well, and can only be regarded as a mediocre figure. Bai Xiaobo's shadow is behind every victory the Navy Seal Corps has won in these years.

In addition to these two people, there are also many powerful and capable people among the civil and military officials, such as the dean of the weaponry research institute in charge of the weaponry production base, the son of the Momen's sect master, and the weaponry of the Da'an Kingdom. The development has made a huge contribution, and it is said that the calculated credit is not much worse than that of Bai Xiaobo and Huo Huaiming.

For example, Yang Kongchan single-handedly cultivated Fan Yang Bank's treasurer who is in charge of bank affairs, and Yang Kongchan's sudden younger brother, Yang Kongshao, has made a profit of more than eight million taels in a year.

In addition, there is Wang Huier, Minister of Agriculture who has been in charge of all affairs of the Ministry of Agriculture recently. The newly reclaimed farmland in the country has reached more than 10 million mu. A large number of water canals have been built, especially the promotion of Fanyang's fine varieties to the whole country, so that the grain income of Da'an Kingdom in the coming year is expected to increase by three or four times. The credit is not insignificant!

These elite officials of the young and strong faction have done a good job in their duties. They have made great achievements in the past year, and they have played a significant role in the overall construction of Da'an.

The front of the palace gate is also a place for socializing. As long as there is no loud noise, the censor of the Inspectorate under Wei Zheng's command will not come out to speak out.

The younger and veteran important ministers and generals Luo Shixin, Pei Yuanqing and others were unable to participate in the Great Court Meeting because the leaders were away.

As for Li Xuanba who was in Beijing, he had a ferocious expression on his face, coupled with his identity as Li Shimin's younger brother, apart from Shen Guo'er and a few old friends, no one else dared to get close to him.

So, the upstarts Huo Huaiming, Bai Xiaobo, and Wang Huier became the focus of the younger generation, and officials from various ministries came forward to congratulate, strike up a conversation, and compliment them constantly.

Among these people, Bai Xiaobo and Wang Huier always had a smile on their faces, and their etiquette and speech were just right, giving people a feeling of spring breeze.

It has only been more than a year since Huo Huaiming was accidentally killed by members of the Steel Saber Legion. In addition to the special nature of the work in the Security Bureau, he has always kept a cold face and looks like no one should enter. Few people come close to strike up a conversation.

However, Wang Huier and Bai Xiaobo, the two upstarts, were secretly envied by many people because of their humble backgrounds, and at the same time they were also jealous and insincere.

Although Wang Junlin tried his best to break the rules of family status and established a clear employment orientation, some things formed over thousands of years cannot change everyone's ideas in a short period of time.

Although Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling were talking to the officials around them, they kept paying attention to the changes in the expressions of everyone around them, and they always looked unpredictable from the beginning to the end.

There was no one around Wei Zheng except his subordinate officials.

Wei Zheng, chief inspector who is in charge of the judiciary and law enforcement power of Da'an country, has become the second only to Shen among the civil and military officials of Da'an country because of his stern and selfless, even unreasonable, bite on everyone since the founding of the country. Guo'er's most special and unusual existence has become a real lonely minister.

Even because of contradicting Wang Junlin several times, now Wang Junlin loves and hates this guy Wei Zheng.

The ministers talked for a while, the Sirius star that was originally on the zenith gradually slanted westward, the bells and drums in the palace suddenly rang together, the side door of the palace creaked open, and the courtiers who were still talking also closed After exchanging pleasantries, they gradually merged into the imperial city.

Da'an Guo's National Day Grand Court Meeting had already set the rules as early as the founding of the country. Under the specific operation of Du Ruhui, Fang Xuanling, Pei Shiju, Yu Shiji and other civil officials, it combined the previous Great Sui calendar year Zhengdan Grand Court Meeting. Some programs, but also some new content ordered by Wang Junlin were well integrated into it.

First of all, after Wang Junlin, the emperor, offered incense and prayed to heaven for the common people, the carriage was carried to the Dazheng Hall, where he was greeted by civil and military officials, and then rewarded with a banquet.

However, compared with the previous Sui Dynasty's annual Zhengdan Grand Court Meeting, the biggest difference between Da'an's annual National Day Grand Court Meeting is that the meritorious ministers who have qualified for knighthood are bestowed or added titles every year. It is also what everyone is most looking forward to.

Everyone stood still, the whips rang, and at the edge of the hall, the musicians began to blow the sheng and ring the bell, playing Shaoyue in praise of the sages and virtuous ministers, while the gatekeepers sang loudly along with the music.

Du Ruhui and Fang Xuanling held wat boards and led the officials to enter the hall one after another according to the roll call and shift, and stood still in the Dazheng Hall.

The net whip rang again, and there was movement in the back of the hall. First, two living servants came out. They were the attendants who recorded the words and deeds of the emperor Wang Junlin. They stood at the two corners of the hall one east and one west.

Then it's a group of hands

A ceremonial officer who holds ritual utensils such as fans and swords.

When the ceremonial officer stood in his position, the tune of sacred music suddenly rose to welcome His Majesty the Emperor.

Wang Junlin actually didn't take these things seriously, but the following important officials insisted that Wang Junlin would also give face to these important officials in this kind of matter, and he also knew that some things should be held in a grand ceremony, which is beneficial to him The maintenance and consolidation of imperial power.

Wang Junlin walked out slowly from the back of the hall, wearing a yellow ocher robe and a flat-footed headdress, which is the uniform of the emperor. Wearing it on Wang Junlin's body, it is indescribably majestic and sacred, just like the real son of heaven.

Wang Junlin stood in front of the treasure seat, his eyes were like lightning, and he swept across the officials, his heart was full of emotions, and his expression was extremely coercive.

His Majesty the emperor sat down, and the ministers shouted long live three times. Wang Junlin accepted everyone's kneeling and declared that he would be exempt from courtesy.

The whole ceremony was presided over by the left minister Fang Xuanling. It is different from when Yang Guang was the emperor in the Sui Dynasty. At the Zhengdan Grand Meeting, the ceremonial officials came out to recite the congratulatory speeches that had been prepared to praise the emperor and the one-year court. Instead, it started directly with praise music and dance, and the focus was on Du Ruhui. Representative Wenzheng and Li Jing, on behalf of the military, summarized all the work done by each system in the past year, the achievements and existing problems, and generally introduced the main planned tasks for the coming year. Afterwards, the chief officials of the six ministries made detailed work reports for the whole year and plans for the coming year.

This point is naturally what Wang Junlin meant, and it is actually similar to the government work report of later generations.

Everything is carried out in strict accordance with the relevant regulations and procedures.

It is also the first time for the civil and military officials of Da'an to hold the National Day Grand Meeting. Many of them have been officials in the Sui Dynasty before and have experienced the content of the Sui Dynasty's Great Court Meeting. Compared with it at this time, I am very surprised At the same time, I also feel that Da'an's system is more practical and useful.

Moreover, the most obvious thing is that under Wang Junlin's strong advocacy, Da'an Kingdom's usual memorials and talks are seldom like those in the Sui Dynasty when they said some obscure nonsense, concise and clear, so at this time Du Ruhui, Li Jing and others The summary report is also very concise and pragmatic, so that people can understand what it means when they hear it, and it will never be confused.

Sitting on the throne, Wang Junlin listened with gusto, feeling a lot of emotion in his heart, and at the same time he was ambitious for the coming year.

Now in the whole world, there are only Guanzhong and Luoyang occupied by Li Shimin, and the population under his rule has more than 30 million. This is because too many people have died since the troubled times at the end of the Sui Dynasty.

As he sat on the throne of the Son of Heaven for a year, the population of the territory under his rule increased and the military strength increased rapidly, Wang Junlin's mentality also unconsciously changed. The fear of displacement has also disappeared.

In his opinion, no matter what, Li Shimin's Tang Kingdom must be destroyed.

Because, only by unifying the world can we completely end the war in the world.

At that time, the benevolent government of Da'an Kingdom and the development model of promoting social productivity through science and technology will be implemented to the whole world, so that tens of millions of people in China and even people of various ethnic groups can live a better life than ever before, creating a new world. A truly prosperous dynasty that has never been seen before.

If Wang Junlin was hesitant before, then Wang Junlin is now very determined to unify the world.

After the summary report, because of Wang Junlin's insistence, the whole process of the National Day Grand Court Meeting was much simpler than the previous Sui Dynasty's Zhengdan Grand Court Meeting, and the main event of the day began directly - rewarding meritorious officials.

Counting it all together, the first time the hero was awarded was the day when Wang Junlin established the country and proclaimed himself emperor, but today is the second time he was awarded the hero.

Wang Junlin knows very well that relying on spiritual beliefs such as 'serving the people', it is absolutely impossible for officials all over the country to work hard and maintain integrity for a long time.

In his view, clear rewards and punishments, high-salary-support-cleanness are necessary conditions to ensure the efficient and healthy operation of the imperial court.

Next, from the two prime ministers to the chief officers of the ministries and the chief generals of the legion, there will be awards. However, the food city has improved greatly.

Wang Junlin was suppressed and did not directly promote to the position of Duke, still because the world has not yet been unified, and with the musket and grenade that were not made by the Da'an Kingdom that appeared during the assassination in the Imperial City Square yesterday evening, Wang Junlin was deeply moved. Tang Guo, who is grateful to Li Shimin, is not easy to deal with, so as to prevent it from being difficult to increase the title of title at that time.

However, because His Majesty the Emperor values ​​hard work and merit, the result of this conferment and title, in fact, is not much suspense following the results of the calculation of the merits of the relevant departments of the court a few days ago.

For example, Huo Huaiming, Bai Xiaobo, and Wang Huier were all conferred the titles of Founding County Boss, and the townships were all raised to 300 households.

Already had titles before, but in the past year, the merits were not outstanding, or the titles of civil and military officials who did not participate in the war did not change.

After awarding meritorious officials, the emperor gave a banquet, and basically they didn't have to eat it. The officials served wine to celebrate the emperor and the court.

A total of about four hours, this year's routine has finally come to an end. It's just that some families were happy and some were jealous. Some went home to celebrate, and some threw their glasses at home, with dissatisfaction and jealousy on their faces.

………

………

At this great court meeting, Wang Junlin also proposed the first military reform after the founding of Da'an.

This military reform is mainly the official implementation of the military honor system.

The military honor system of the army already existed in the Han Dynasty, which is somewhat similar to the military rank system of later generations, but there are obvious differences.

Wang Junlin originally wanted to directly adopt the military rank system of the later generations, but after a comprehensive investigation and research by the Ministry of War and the military government combined with the actual characteristics of the troops of this era and the cultural particularity of the era, it was found that the military rank system was not suitable. Finally, Wang Junlin discussed with Nie Xiaoyu , and together with Li Jing and others, researched and analyzed, and decided to combine the military rank system of later generations with the military honor system of this era, and implement the unique military honor system of Da'an.

In addition to their own grades and positions, military officers are determined by military honors, uniforms, salaries, seniority, etc. There are twelve ranks from the general to the last captain.

Combined with the current Da'an country military positions and main positions, the specific details are as follows:

Generals are divided into four levels: major general, upper general, middle general, and minor general.

Among them, the general is Cong Yipin, and the chief officers of the Ministry of War, the military mansion, and the heads of the top ten legions will be the generals.

The general is the second grade, the deputy general of the military government and the Ministry of war, the deputy general of the top ten legions, and Zhang Tiangang, the captain of the special forces team, is the general.

The Lieutenant General and Major General respectively correspond to General Lang and Lieutenant Guo Yi in the original military system of the Sui Dynasty.

As for the officers under the general, Wang Junlin didn't bother to think of a new name, and directly divided them into the following generations: senior colonel, colonel, lieutenant colonel, major, captain, captain, lieutenant, and second lieutenant.

In addition, non-commissioned soldiers below officers are divided into senior non-commissioned officers, middle-level non-commissioned officers, low-level non-commissioned officers, upper-rank soldiers, and lower-rank soldiers, a total of five levels.

Such a fine division is also a manifestation of the further professionalization of the army. It is to clarify the relationship between the superior and the subordinate of the army, improve the awareness of obeying orders in peacetime and wartime, thereby improving the efficiency of combat and training, and can also greatly boost soldiers. The self-motivated and maintain enough morale of the troops.

……

……

In the blink of an eye, another half a year passed, both Da'an and Tang followed the agreement, seemingly in peace on the surface, and the border guards did not cross the border to provoke trouble.

Of course, secretly training troops to prepare for war, striving to improve military strength, and preparing food and grass must be done all the time.

However, since the assassination of Wang Junlin on the eve of the National Day of the Da'an Kingdom, the spy war between the two sides has been in full swing, and all methods have been used.

Especially Shen Guoer sent countless elite spies and experts to inquire about the mysterious weapons and equipment production base in Tang State, in order to verify whether Tang State has the ability to produce gunpowder weapons. However, the effect has not been very obvious, and instead lost a lot of manpower.

The Tang State sent a lot of killers to try to assassinate the important ministers of the Da'an State, but the effect was also not good. They were often noticed by the Da'an State before they did anything, and then they were counter-sieged and killed, which damaged a lot. Less masters.

In addition, recently, the Security Office discovered that the Tang State tried to imitate the Da'an State in many aspects such as education, people's livelihood, and the legal system. Li Shimin is very good at gathering people's hearts, making Da'an's usual ideological struggle and some secret arrangements less effective than before.

Especially in the deep mountains of the Qinling Mountains, the two bases behind the enemy were found out by the Tang people, and they sent a large army to besiege and kill them, causing heavy losses.

Moreover, for Li Shimin, who is good at learning the advantages of the enemy, so as to deal with the enemy in turn, he will definitely not miss such coups as "developing base areas behind the enemy".

It's just that Wang Junlin started his career with this trick

, and good at fighting in the ideological field, how could he be unprepared? Li Shimin sent a lot of people secretly to do things in various places in Da'an, but they didn't succeed.

Finally, Li Shimin focused on the six tribes of Nanzhao in the southwest.

When Wang Junlin set up a big strategy when he was attacking Liang, Shen Guoer led the security government to implement it with all his strength.

Later, the six tribes of Nanzhao failed to control their greed and wanted to take the opportunity to expand their territory. They were severely beaten several times by Wang Junlin's Yuchi Jingde led by the tiger army, and suffered heavy losses. His status was gone, and Wang Junlin sent people to register their households forcibly, and Nanzhao County was established, and the six tribes of Nanzhao became the people of Da'an.

Although Wang Junlin ordered the relevant yamen of the imperial court and the prefect of Nanzhao County to formulate a series of strategies to appease and Sinicize the six ethnic groups in Nanzhao, the effect has been very good in the past six months.

However, it will take at least several years to completely eliminate the hatred of all the people of the six ethnic groups in Nanzhao towards Da'an, and make them completely identify themselves as the people of Da'an.

At this time, Li Shimin sent people to the Nanzhao clan to do things, but his eyes were sharp and his methods were ruthless. It was actually the same reason and strategy as when Wang Junlin asked Shen Guoer to do things with the six Nanzhao clans.

If Li Shimin succeeds in making troubles among the six Nanzhao tribes, after more than a year, when the two countries fight, if the Nanzhao tribe rebels again, it will inevitably restrain a considerable part of Da'an's troops.

For this reason, Li Shimin attached great importance to it, and sent Xiao Yu, a powerful confidant, to Nanzhao County secretly.

Xiao Yu is also a famous person in history. In the original history, he was also listed among the twenty-four heroes of Lingyan Pavilion in the Tang Dynasty, and even ranked very high. He is good at learning and writing, and has integrity. known as.

And Li Shimin sent Xiao Yu to Nanzhao County to contact the six tribes of Nanzhao to do things. In addition to his outstanding ability and meticulous work, it was also because he was the son of Xiao Kui, the Ming Emperor of the Later Liang Dynasty. Later, he was still a relative of his nephew and nephew, but Xiao Yu and Xiao Yu were two people, and they even had enmity. Therefore, before Xiao Yu established the Liang Kingdom, Xiao Yu never went to seek refuge, and had been working under Li Yuan. After the militia, he was loyal to Li Shimin.

After all, Xiao Ju belonged to the royal family of Houliang, and Houliang had dealings with the six clans of Nanzhao all the year round, and even had a marriage, so it has some advantages to do some things with his identity.

It's just that after Xiao Yu disguised his identity and came to Nanzhao County all the way, what he saw and heard made his heart feel heavier and heavier, and he became more and more emotional.

On this day, Xiao Ju came to Hongbu County, Nanzhao County. This is a mixed city of Han Dynasty and Zhao Dynasty. He visited this city more than ten years ago. It was still in peace, but it was dilapidated at that time. The people were starving to death and freezing to death in the streets.

However, the dilapidated earthen houses and potholed streets are gone, replaced by tall and solid red brick buildings. Originally, there was only one bookstore in the whole city, but now he has seen six large-scale bookstores along the way, and the prices of the books at the door and the types of books they have made him, who is also known as a great Confucian, feel envious .

And when he was walking on the street, he couldn't see many beggars, there were no corpse-picking carts sent by the government, and he couldn't see the phenomenon of dandies running rampant and killing people.

Everyone is full of the spirit of moving towards new life and cherishes the life in front of them in the depths of their eyes, all of which indicate that all this is hard-won.

Xiao Yu couldn't believe what she saw. Because, he knew that only Chang'an City and a few nearby cities in their Tang Kingdom could do this, and even the security might not be as good as that of Hongbu County.

And when he followed the sound of reading aloud, he came to a yard covering an area of ​​more than ten acres, surrounded by walls of red bricks and blue tiles, his shock finally reached its peak.

"Red Cloth Middle School! Could it be a private school... No, it should be a government school, but it seems to be different." Just when Xiao Yu saw clearly the writing on the large plaque at the main entrance of the yard, a crisp bell rang The sound rang out, and the courtyard with the intermittent sound of reading just now suddenly boiled up in an instant. Teenagers ranging from ten to eighteen years old were shouting and jumping, carrying all kinds of schoolbags, with bright faces Smiling and ran out from the school gate.

There were not many people, and they ran away from Xiao Yu very quickly. Xiao Yu secretly calculated that the number of people was less than two hundred, but the meaning of this event itself, from the perspective of Xiao Yu as a great Confucian, was originally It's a good thing, but as a subject of the enemy country, it feels extremely heavy in my heart.

Because if this is the case in all parts of Nanzhao County, it will be too difficult for him to implement his goal of establishing a base behind the enemy.

This is the first city Xiao Yu arrived at after entering Nanzhao County.

Xiao Yu didn't dare to do anything special, took a few entourages to stay in a hotel, had dinner, then changed the travel documents from Hongbu City, and left this peaceful and peaceful city that he thought had been 'reborn'.

Although the heart is quite heavy, Xiao Yu is still lucky. After all, this is the city of Nanzhao County closest to the land of the Han people. The situation in Hongbu County should be quite different.

It's just that Xiao Yu's heart became heavier and heavier as he went deeper.

In the mountains and valleys to the southwest of Hongbu City, there are many Nanzhao villages. In the past, the Nanzhao people also planted rice and other crops, but they were all in the east and west, and they were quite chaotic and rough. Rice in the south of the Yangtze River is very easy to cultivate and survive, and the yield is not bad. If this cultivation standard is in the north, it will not produce much food at all.

At this time, Xiao Yu saw a few very neat large canals, and along the sides of the canals, there were almost endless farmlands.

In this scene, Xiao Yu was so shocked that he couldn't say a word for a while.

In the paddy field in July, the endless light yellow green carpet spread to the horizon.

A few sparkling rivers... no! It is an artificial canal that divides this blanket into several parts. The fields are full of hardworking farmers who are working hard to tend these precious rice seedlings.

In farther places, groups of people are still reclaiming new farmland, some craftsmen are setting up huge waterwheels by the river, which Xiao Yu has never seen before, and some officials are riding around on horseback. The carriage, the bustling labor scene made him feel chills.

Xiao Yu deliberately approached those farmers, those craftsmen, those officials...

The scene he saw made him feel unbelievable and terrifying.

The craftsmen are mostly Han people, the officials are mostly Han people, and the farmers are mostly Nanzhao people, and there are also a small number of Han people, but they seem to play a role in guiding the Nanzhao people to farm.

In addition, there are Han people who drive around in horse-drawn carriages to do business, and there are also a small number of Nanzhao people among them.

In Xiao Yu's impression, for many years, Han people and Nanzhao people were full of hostility and distrust if they were not fighting each other when they were together.

However, the people in front of them are happily playing and working, and occasionally shouting and cursing loudly. The scene of labor is warm and harmonious, and everyone seems to be very happy.

Before coming here, Xiao Yu had a general understanding of Da'an's current official system, judicial office, and the "Farm Law", "Commercial Law", and "Civil Law" that were widely circulated among farmers and businessmen. , and under the vigorous advocacy and promotion of His Majesty the Emperor of the Tang Kingdom, the Tang Kingdom is also trying its best to imitate and learn these aspects.

However, it was only after seeing it with his own eyes that Xiao Yu deeply felt some of the things they imitated and learned in Tang Dynasty... Maybe it was just superficial, at least from the effect point of view.

"It's only been a little over a year, Da'an has only been established for more than a year, and already has a deep-rooted feeling that the army's combat power is invincible. Now it is also so outstanding in internal affairs, the monarchs of Da'an... ...Or how did the Emperor Wang Junlin of Da'an Kingdom do it?"

For a long time, Xiao Yu believed that their Emperor Li Shimin of the Tang Dynasty was already a rare hero. In his opinion, Li Shimin even had the possibility of becoming an emperor through the ages, but compared with Wang Junlin, he seemed to be far behind. .

Moreover, Xiao Yu knew that this difference was not a slight difference, but a difference in level.

"...The land is flat and open, and the houses are like houses. There are mulberry and bamboo in the beautiful ponds of the fertile fields. The traffic in the rice paddies, the chickens and dogs meet each other. Among them, the plants are grown..."

Xiao Yu sighed secretly, her heart became heavier and heavier, and she felt bitter in her heart, she couldn't help thinking to herself: "If every county in Nanzhao County is like this, His Majesty Tang has entrusted me with a heavy task to complete... ..."

"However..." Thinking of this, Xiao Yu paused for a moment, thinking of the place where the Nanzhao tribe lived, and thought that the people of the Nanzhao tribe in that place were from the Shengzhao tribe, and they were very different from these Shuzhao tribesmen. It is absolutely impossible to be tamed to such an extent by the Da'an Kingdom.
