Chapter 179 - Individuals

In a village, Rent reduction order s had just been introduced!

According to the rules set by the Rent reduction order, a village's landlord must not rent more than 30% of the land! Also, landlords could not have land, which meant they could not have wasteland! If he couldn't grow them all, he had to rent them out!

This time, the Rent reduction order was redistributing the wealth of the society. The originally poorest peasant of Song Dynasty finally had a chance to see a change in his life to a certain extent! Their gratitude towards Zhao Chen could be imagined!

Just then, the people from Advocacy Division entered the village!

In the beginning, Wang Shu presided over the Advocacy Division because he wanted to recruit some Elementary Scholars, but many Elementary Scholars did not have the gift of speech, and only knew how to read. Only a few of them would listen to the promotions, and Wang Shu knew that something was amiss. After that, after Wang Shu asked for instructions from Zhao Chen, anyone who knew how to speak for themselves, regardless of whether they were an Elementary Scholar or a farmer, as long as they had the ability of "speak", could join the Advocacy Division! And after these people entered Advocacy Division, they became officials, their status far surpassing before. Naturally, they worked hard, and did not dare to lag behind!

"This time, the Imperial Guards went to the Guan Shan and utterly defeated the Nvzhen! Do you know why the Imperial Guards were able to defeat the Nvzhen? " The "farmer" from Advocacy Division stood in the middle of a group of farmers and said.

"Then why?" An old man said.

"That's because the Imperial Guards were personally trained by His Majesty, and were personally commanded by him at that time. That's why he was able to defeat the woman! For thousands of years, we Chinese have only produced one genius like His Majesty! If we ordinary farmers do as His Majesty says, we will be able to reap a good harvest! For example, if an Elementary Scholar were to do as His Majesty asked, he could become a scholar's scholar! If the army did as the king said, they would win! In short, following His Majesty's orders is victory! " That person said.

When the people at the side heard this, they felt that the emperor was like a god in the clouds. They, the mortals, could only look up to the emperor from where they stood!

"Do you know which divine being is the biggest in this world?" The man said again.

"Who is it?" an old farmer beside him asked.

"He's naturally the great Deity Pangu who founded this world!" When the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors transformed all living beings, we Han Chinese were able to survive in the Central Plains and create a magnificent civilization, surpassing all the barbarians! After he had transformed into a Three Purities God, the most powerful of the three was now Empyrean God Yuanshi! More than ten years ago, when Celestial Yuanshi was watching the scenery of the mortal world from the sky, he saw a black dragon appear in the north. He knew that this evil dragon was going to bring disaster upon the world, so he personally descended to the mortal world to kill this evil dragon! This evil dragon is the female real. After the Yuanshi Tianzun came down to the mortal world, do you know who he was reincarnated to? " The man said again.

"Who?" Everyone had a common answer in their hearts, but they did not say it out loud. They looked at this "farmer" with anticipation, hoping that he would say the same thing as they did!

"It really is His Majesty!" My guess is right! It's no wonder that His Majesty was able to defeat the female true master. He was descended from the Primordial Heaven. No one is her match! "

His Majesty was only ten years old back then, but he was able to escape Kaifeng. And later on, he even killed Zhe Keqiu at such a young age! So it turns out that his origins are so extraordinary. He's actually a Yuanshi Tianzun who descended from the heavens! "

"His Majesty is a deity that walks the mortal world! We will listen to His Majesty! "

For a time, the surrounding commoners were discussing amongst themselves, while that "farmer" revealed a complacent expression.

"Today, when His Majesty released the Rent reduction order, we were able to reconstruct it together. We must thank Your Majesty! May Your Majesty live for ever and ever! " Suddenly, the "farmer" knelt down and said with an extremely excited voice.

"Long live Your Majesty, long live your Majesty! Long live and long live your Majesty!" The surrounding commoners followed the man and kneeled down, shouting together.

"I had a glimpse of His Majesty from far away. At that time, I could tell that His Majesty was descended from heaven with a single glance. When I returned, I carefully recalled His Majesty's appearance and painted a picture of him!" I will present this portrait to you today. From today onwards, you will report and request for guidance from His Majesty in the morning. His Majesty will ask for permission to pass on this painting to you in your dreams and tell you what to do! " The person stood up and said.

He then took out a painting, and saw that it was extremely exquisite, Zhao Chen was dressed in a dragon robe, holding a treasure sword, her eyes were sharp, as though she was looking at the horizon, and below Zhao Chen's feet were actually many white clouds, radiating gold light! This portrait was not much different from the portraits of the immortals of this era!

When the surrounding commoners saw this portrait, they all kneeled down once again!

Every morning, they would come over at night to report their findings. It was said that they had hopes and dreams for the day, and some people really dreamed of Zhao Chen. When they woke up in the morning, their eyes would be filled with tears.

The Rent reduction order encountered some resistance in the Middle Han Area, but it was limited! This had a lot to do with when Zhao Chen killed the officials of the imperial government. When Zhe Keqiu changed, out of the hundreds of officials in the Middle Han Area, only a dozen could survive. These officials were more or less related to the local forces in the Middle Han Area. After they had died, the local forces in the Middle Han Area had suffered a huge blow. Right now, the newly arrived officials and officials could not fight against the imperial government at all!

However, the matter of the rent reduction had spread to Sichuan, where many gentry s were in an uproar, all of them objecting! Wu Jie had no choice but to raise his vigilance, in the end, Zhao Chen sent out a decree in the name of the Military Intelligence Department, saying that the Rent reduction order would not be carried out in Sichuan, which was how the Sichuan gentry calmed down!

The imperial government had just seized back the Guan Shan. There was a lot of land there, and the imperial government encouraged the people of Sichuan to go to the Guan Shan to clear the wasteland! As long as all the wasteland was reclaimed, it would belong to the farmers themselves. Furthermore, it would be exempt from tax for three years! In addition, the seeds and farm tools were provided by the imperial government!

After hearing the news, countless farmers in Sichuan were stirred, they all had thoughts of going to Guan Shan! However, they all knew that the north had just experienced a huge battle. No one knew whether the Nvzhen would come back or not, and no one knew if there would still be any danger! In the end, only some extremely daring farmers who could not survive in their hometown would go to the Guan Shan! For an entire month, only tens of thousands of people headed towards the north! This mere tens of thousands of people was not enough to fill up the gap in the Guan Shan's population!

It's just that Zhao Chen didn't have a better way, and he couldn't forcibly emigrate either! Successive dynasties had forced immigrants, but that was usually at the beginning of the founding of the country. For example, the migration of the Great Hole Pagoda tree in the early Ming Dynasty, and the flood and flood of Sichuan in the early Qing Dynasty. Right now, the world was in chaos, it was not a good time for forced immigration! Furthermore, Zhao Chen felt that as long as the work of the Advocacy Division was done, the citizens could emigrate naturally in the future!

When it was the middle of April, Zhao Chen only brought a dozen or so guards to meet with the commoners in private and saw an unbelievable scene! He only saw an Elementary Scholar standing in a village and publicizing his "personal worship". The walls of the village were filled with "Emperor's Words", but he did not know how Wang Shu's Advocacy Division had compiled these words.

He stayed there for a while. Then, a few farmers suddenly came over and kneeled down on the ground, kowtowing to him nonstop!

It turned out that Zhao Chen's portrait had already been "printed" in a large number and was spread to countless of farmers' homes! All the farmers' homes had portraits of Zhao Chen, so the moment Zhao Chen appeared, they immediately recognized him!

These farmers were kneeling down there. When the distant farmers saw the scene here, they all came over and knelt down!

The way these peasants looked at Zhao Chen was completely different from the way other people looked at Zhao Chen! In the past, when those people knew that Zhao Chen was the emperor, they only knew that he was only an emperor. And these farmers were looking at Zhao Chen with madness, worship, and faith in their eyes!

Zhao Chen was stunned!

He knew that the Advocacy Division had always been doing the promotions, but he didn't know that the Advocacy Division was actually doing the promotions with his own eyes and ears!

"Damn it!" This Wang Shu, what is he doing!? " Zhao Chen was furious.

He was no longer in the mood to visit, and after saying a few quick words, he immediately turned around and left, preparing to return to the Middle Han Area!

"What did Your Majesty just say? Did you remember that? His Majesty has spoken the truth. We must remember his words in our hearts! " The farmers in the distance began to discuss with each other!

"Alright, stop arguing! I'll remember it and tell you later! You guys go ahead and do the farm work first. In the evening, we'll start to reminisce! Before His Majesty pushed the Rent reduction order into action, he had lived a miserable life, but now he lived a happy life! "We must definitely remember the sweet and bitter memories, and remember His Majesty's kindness!"

… ….

Zhao Chen returned to the palace with a dark expression!

When Lin Bao saw Zhao Chen's current state, he nervously asked, "Your Majesty, what happened?"

Zhao Chen said: "Go and get Wang Shu! "Find them immediately!"
