Sheng Fu

Chapter 900: Steady Progress
Haomiao City, inside the City Lord’s Mansion.

Gu Yu, Xuan He and Jiang Shang gathered together, while Li Hongshan and Wu Mi were on one side.

Jiang Shang, about forty years old, dressed in purple brocade clothes, handsome, strong physique, with extremely vigorous blood in his body, unlike an ordinary soul practitioner.

In terms of realm cultivation, he has reached the late stage of Guiyuan Realm.

In the future, he may become a master of soul arts at the Lingxiao realm.

It is also one of the indispensable mainstays in the Minghun Mountain lineage.

"What's the general situation?" Yu Wenjun asked softly, leaning his head on the throne, looking a little tired.

Jiang Shang bowed deeply and said, "My Lord, the people in the two cities are no longer as anxious as they were in the past two days. Although most people are angry, they don't express it openly."

"Generals Zhong Yi and Chen Xuan, strictly control your subordinates and do not disturb the people of the Divine Realm."

"We have already appropriately reduced taxes and adopted a conciliatory policy, but people's hearts are already on the side of the Divine Emperor, and the news that the Divine Emperor has awakened has spread throughout the two cities."

"Many people in the Divine Realm are eagerly waiting for His Majesty the Divine Emperor to personally lead the army and give them their freedom."

Hearing this, Yu Wenjun straightened up. He knew very well in his heart that the Divine Emperor had basically given up on the people of these two cities. It was just that the people of Taicang City and Frost Moon City did not believe this and were still fanatical in their belief in the Divine Emperor.

At the moment, we cannot discredit the Divine Emperor at will, as any inadvertent action may lead to civil unrest.

Furthermore, Yu Wenjun would not do anything like discrediting the leaders of other countries. It was just that his position and standpoint were different. He had to admit that the Divine Emperor was an extremely outstanding leader.

Yuwen Jun looked at Wu Mi and asked, "Was there any bloodshed in the city?"

Wu Mi's face darkened slightly, and he said truthfully, "A spirit warrior under Zhong Yi got drunk in a restaurant, and after he left, he had some friction with several young people from the Divine Realm."

"Those few people joined forces to beat up the soldier under Zhong Yi's command. The soldier was also drunk and went too far in a moment, killing one man in the street, which triggered a mutiny."

"Afterwards, Zhong Yi personally went to the scene and beheaded the soldier in tears."

"But some local celebrities in Taicang City are still dissatisfied with this matter and have many complaints. All kinds of rumors that are unfavorable to us are spreading in the streets and alleys."

"Jiang Shang's meaning is that we can let rumors fly everywhere. As long as we don't do anything to harm the people of the Divine Realm, the storm will naturally subside over time."

"But in this process, it is inevitable that there will be some people with ulterior motives who will cause trouble for us and throw dirty water on us."

"They say we are invaders, they say we are foreign enemies."

Yu Wenjun stood up and laughed, "That's not wrong. In essence, we are indeed outsiders."

"At this moment, there is no need to control any public opinion, as long as there is no bloodshed."

"If there are people in the city who are intent on organizing a fight against our army, control the situation, but do not hurt anyone."

Li Hongshan said suspiciously, "If there are not many people, there will be no deterrent effect. Then they will think that there will be no consequences if they offend us, and their arrogance will become more and more arrogant in the future."

Yu Wenjun looked at Li Hongshan, smiled happily and said: "I understand this principle, but this method is used to treat the soldiers of the Divine Realm, not the people of the Divine Realm."

"I asked the Imperial Master to come here today because I want to listen to his wise words."

Li Hongshan was very smart and immediately realized that Yu Wenjun had an idea. He smiled and said, "What do you plan to do, Your Highness?"

Yu Wenjun looked at Jiang Shang, Gu Yu, and Xuan He and said in a deep voice: "The new policy will be implemented to the end, but the existing laws need to be readjusted."

"Laws are like clothes worn by ordinary people. They cannot be too tight or too loose."

"When you formulate laws, you can be a little loose, so that the people feel that if they make some minor mistakes, there is still room for maneuver, but if it involves moral mistakes, you must not be lenient." "The overall outline is loose on the outside and tight on the inside, but not too tight, just close to compact."

"You guys decide on the specific policy, and when you're done, give it to me for review."

Gu Yu, Jiang Shang, and Xuan He bowed deeply at the same time and said in unison: "As you command!"

Yu Wenjun continued, "Guo Shenghe once suggested to me that since we are going to implement the new policy, we should completely relax the authority. After the beginning of next spring, the Chaohua Test in the Divine Realm will begin."

"When the time comes, let the people of the two cities go to the Divine Realm to participate in the Chaohua Test."

"And everyone who participates in the Chaohua exam can go to the government to get enough money for the trip. Before they leave, they must set up a banquet for them. After they have eaten and drunk their fill, they can set off again!"

"You can come and go freely, but the laws you make later must be obeyed by the people."

"We are taking a two-pronged approach. There are some subtle points to consider. You can decide for yourself."

Soul masters are naturally meticulous and broad-minded when it comes to such matters, and Gu Yu has a pure and innocent heart. After Yu Wenjun thought about the new law worked out by these three people for a moment, he felt that it would work.

If there is something that doesn't work, you can modify it slowly.

After all, governing Taicang City and Frost Moon City is a slow and steady process.

The three soul magic leaders bowed deeply and withdrew. Tonight was destined to be a sleepless night for these three people.

After the three men left, Li Hongshan said in confusion, "Is it too lax to allow them to participate in the Chaohua Test of the Divine Realm? This will open the door wide, and many spies will pour in. Moreover, the people in the city are concerned about the Divine Emperor, so they will naturally collude with the people in the Shanhai Spy Network and hide their identities. It will be difficult for me to verify the truth at that time."

“This is a thankless task for us.”

Yu Wenjun knew that the State Master would have such concerns, so he smiled helplessly and said, "So, I have to trouble you, State Master, for this matter. Nowadays, the important task of Xingluo Spy Network is not to go out and spy on intelligence, but to help us govern Taicang City and Shuangyue City. In this process, we naturally need some rules to prevent problems from happening, but the brothers and sisters of Xingluo will find it particularly hard."

Li Hongshan said unhappily: "You make it sound so easy."

Yu Wenjun said: "What we are facing is not an easy task, but if we succeed, the people from all over the Divine Realm will be on our side and go against their high and mighty Divine Emperor."

"The struggle for people's hearts is exhausting."

"It's a pity that the three soul masters under my command are now trying to break through the Lingxiao barrier. If they succeed in breaking through the Lingxiao barrier, the burden on the shoulders of the State Master will be much lighter."

Li Hongshan deliberately raised his eyebrows and said, "So, Your Highness still trusts the soul masters under your command, rather than me, the national master of the human race?"

Yu Wenjun smiled and explained, "No, no."

"The important task of the Imperial Master is to spy on the enemy, not to govern internal affairs."

"Now I have asked the Imperial Master to accompany me to manage these things. I have asked the Imperial Master to condescend to me. I feel very sorry about this. I hope you can understand me."

Li Hongshan sighed and said, "In my life, you are the only one who makes me feel uncomfortable about many things."

"Come to think of it, you killed my subordinates a few years ago."

"Now, I still have to assist you with all my heart and soul."

Yu Wenjun bowed slightly and said, "Your Excellency is very generous, I don't think he would bother with a junior like me."

Li Hongshan was speechless for a moment, but the little guy could still speak and inadvertently blocked the mouth of the Imperial Master.

"You asked me to give you some good advice, but now you have said everything. What else can I say?" Li Hongshan said with a gloomy face.

Yu Wenjun laughed dryly and said, "Master Imperial Master has practiced Taoism for many years and has already reached a state where no further words are needed."
