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

Chapter 522: The so-called prosperous times are nothing but the atmosphere of the founding of Daqian!

The situation in Liao and Jin was so critical, and the situation in Western Xia was not much better.

Although the army they mobilized was relatively small in scale, the problem was that the Western Xia Kingdom was not as powerful as the Liao and Jin Kingdoms. Most of the Liao and Jin armies fled, while the Western Xia army directly ran into the two Qian armies.

It should be noted that the Liao and Jin armies of more than 300,000 were defeated when facing the three-way Qian army, let alone the Xixia army of only tens of thousands facing the two-way Qian army?

Naturally, the entire army was wiped out!

If it weren't for the officials from Li Qiushui's faction who played a role and reduced the number of troops deployed, the losses would have been even more severe.

However, even so, the Western Xia Kingdom fell into the same uneasy atmosphere as the Liao and Jin Kingdoms.

The loss of tens of thousands of troops, and the complete annihilation of the army, to some extent, was no less than that of the Liao and Jin countries.

It can even be said that the national strength has been further damaged.

Not to mention that after the two Qian armies swallowed up the Western Xia army, they also marched into the Western Xia territory one after another, obviously with the intention of swallowing up the territory.

24 Faced with such a situation, even if there are no hidden dangers in the north of Western Xia for the time being, and it is better than the Liao and Jin countries, this does not mean that the situation is good.

Daqian single-handedly fought against the armies of the Three Kingdoms and won a resounding victory! Such military strength is truly terrifying!

Xixia was frightened, and the court was also in turmoil.

It is hard for them not to be afraid. The Song State had posed a great threat to them in the past. If Zhao Ji had not come to power and ruined the situation, it is hard to say whether there would be Western Xia now. Now that the mighty Daqian had taken over, they had even less confidence in being able to cope with it.

The Tubo and Dali countries, which had remained silent in the surrounding areas, were relieved but also felt anxious and uneasy after hearing the news.

Because since Daqian started its military campaign, it has shown a strong desire for expansion.

Now that the country has just been established and its system has been established, it has already defeated Liao, Jin, and Western Xia. Seeing that the situation similar to that of the Song Dynasty is about to happen again, although they are not the ones being attacked, they can't help but feel afraid!

If the war is over by then, will we still have time to deal with them?!

Out of a sense of crisis that one's teeth will be destroyed if the lips are cold, they should have sent troops to obstruct and curb Daqian's continued expansion and growth. However, neither Dali nor Tubo had the energy to do so.

Crazy!

With a military force like Daqian, no one would dare to provoke them even if they had ten times the courage!

but......

Faced with such a situation, the two countries still took action.

Tubo strengthened its border defenses and sent envoys to pay tribute and request enthronement in the same way as Dali; Dali continued to send more envoys with more tributes to express its respect, hoping to obtain the recognition and enthronement of His Majesty the Emperor Daqian.

Judging only by sincerity and attitude, Dali is naturally more sincere and respectful.

Although Tubo was afraid of Daqian's military strength, they were relatively calm due to their geographical advantages. It was difficult for people from the Central Plains to adapt to the plateau. No matter how strong Daqian's military strength was, they would inevitably suffer from acclimatization and be unable to adapt to the plateau climate and environment. Therefore, although the Tubo high-level officials were in awe and sent envoys to pay homage, they were still far inferior to Dali.

Dali had no other ideas. There were a lot of barefoot, eagle and cloud pattern groups under its rule. It was obvious that Daqian had started planning this a long time ago. If they did not express their position respectfully, there would be a disaster of overthrow one day in the future.

In addition to the various reactions from neighboring countries, news has gradually spread to more distant places, but let’s not talk about that.

In Daqian, with the advancement of the northern front and the back-and-forth sweeps of the elite troops of the Qian army, the territory of the Song Dynasty was completely owned by Daqian!

It has only been more than half a year since the uprising, and the Song Dynasty has been destroyed. Such an achievement will go down in history!

Throughout the dynasties, there has never been a country that has conquered the world in such a short time! Daqian's power not only terrifies the neighboring countries, but also inspires all the people under its rule to celebrate and be excited!

Through official reports and notices, the abdication edict of Zhao Song, various military intelligence on the front lines, and news of great victories spread throughout Daqian, causing a huge sensation.

All the people knew about the complete demise of the Song Dynasty, that Daqian had completely annexed the territory of the Song Dynasty, and that they had won a complete victory over the hundreds of thousands of troops of Liao, Jin, and Western Xia!

As a result, an extremely enthusiastic atmosphere emerged in various places, and many places began to spontaneously celebrate Daqian's victory! The voice of "Daqian's victory" began to appear continuously among the people. The era when they used to call themselves Song people was completely gone, and they all called themselves Daqian people.

As the country gradually stabilized, the local bandit suppression forces' sweeping operations greatly improved public security in various places, and the safety in the wild was also greatly increased. At least the threats from bandits, mountain bandits, and gangs of robbers were constantly decreasing, and travel safety was guaranteed. This, to a certain extent, stimulated population mobility and the rapid prosperity of business.

All the prosperous atmosphere is a change that even ordinary people can see!

It would be better to say that in the eyes of many of them, this is the so-called prosperous age!

Not only them, but even most knowledgeable people believe that under the rule of Daqian, although the country was founded not long ago, it has already entered a prosperous era! It is even more prosperous than the previous dynasties!

In the past, what was a prosperous era? If most people had enough to eat and didn't starve to death, and there were no major chaos under the rule, then this could be called a prosperous era. But what about now?

Although the people may not have enough food and clothing, their living conditions are definitely far better than those of previous generations.

With fields, land, a house, and food, and no worries about jobs, children can go to schools run by government offices to study and learn martial arts, with bright futures ahead of them. And with all sorts of policies that benefit the country and the people, who in all dynasties could have accomplished these things?!

Only Daqian can do it!

The so-called prosperous times in the past were nothing more than the atmosphere of the founding of the Great Qian Empire! It can even be said that reaching even one-tenth or two-tenths of the current level would have been a scene of prosperity that could be boasted about in the past!

The gap between them is extremely clear!

Everyone believes that under Daqian's rule, the future will get better and better!

Chapter 523: Queen Mother Xi is truly a deity! She changes customs and practices! Her status rises!

In the Daqian Palace, inside the Hall of Mental Cultivation.

Fang Han sat here, dealing with the increasingly heavy affairs of the court.

At the beginning of the founding of the country, not to mention that there are many things to be done, there are also many big and small things to do, all kinds of complicated and trivial things. This can be regarded as a small side effect of expanding the territory too quickly.

It is not easy to sort out everything under Daqian's rule and govern it in an orderly manner.

However, for Fang Han, things are now on the right track and he can just take his time.

At this time, Cheng Lingsu, Huang Rong, Wu Xingyun and others were also dealing with their own affairs.

After the founding of the country, it was not only Fang Han who was busy, but their burdens also became heavier.

Especially Huang Rong.

She was busy day and night with the military and political affairs in various places. If it weren't for Wanwan, Wang Yuyan and others helping her, she would really be overwhelmed. It's not a question of whether she was tired or not. With her cultivation in the Qi realm, although the workload was heavy, it didn't make her tired. It's just that the development speed of Daqian was too rapid, and the political affairs increased explosively in a short period of time, and there were too many accumulated things that she couldn't handle.

Fortunately, she has adapted now and can handle it with ease. She has people around her to help her, and with the system established, Daqian is on the right track. She has also gradually decentralized power, with each department taking on its own responsibilities and gradually making the transition.

This is also what Fang Han meant.

He didn't want Huang Rong to do everything herself. The country is so big, if everything really depends on the boss, how could she possibly be able to handle it?

It is foreseeable that Daqian will expand more territory, annex more territories, and its government affairs will be greatly increased in the future.

With Huang Rong's ability, there might not be any problem if she really handles everything herself, but it would inevitably be stressful and stressful, and there is really no need for it. Otherwise, what are the civil and military officials below for?

A mature national system cannot function without anyone.

Daqian cannot do this either. With Fang Han's personal consideration and the collective efforts of everyone, the system finally established is extremely mature and in line with the current situation.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with Huang Rong delegating all matters now. However, she took into consideration that it was the beginning of the founding of the country and everything was just beginning, so she wanted to sort out everything first and then delegate power slowly.

Even so, all the civil and military officials regarded the Queen Mother as a deity.

This ability to govern a country is something I have never seen or heard of before!

Even if we look through history, we may not find such a talented person! ?

With such great power, he is truly a god!

As for the fact that the harem is not allowed to interfere in politics, it is a tacit understanding among the entire Daqian court.

If this rule were applied to other dynasties or countries, it might be a wise saying and a way to maintain stability, but in Daqian, it is a meaningless fallacy.

All the officials of Daqian are administrative talents selected from the core of the sect. They are absolutely loyal and naturally they would not question the decision of their superiors.

Not to mention the internal affairs of Daqian, there are many examples of women holding high positions in the military and political circles. For example, Wu Xingyun, the actual manager of the Beiming Sect, is a woman. Who in the sect does not have the utmost awe and respect for this deputy sect leader and the sect leader's wife who are under the sect leader?

Not to mention, many of Daqian's ministers are from the core elite of the Nine Heavens and Nine Departments.

How could anyone possibly agree with the saying that the harem and women are not allowed to interfere in politics?

Can't you deny yourself?

The people of Daqian naturally don’t know the details of what is happening in the court at the moment, but even if they knew, they wouldn’t be able to say anything.

Daqian started his army from the south of the Yangtze River and conquered the world without any compromise. He relied purely on his own martial arts and gained a strong reputation!

Whether it is aristocratic families, landlords, powerful people, the scholar-official class, or any other group, they have no special say in Daqian.

You say the harem isn't allowed to interfere in government? Women aren't allowed to interfere in government? We have numerous female generals and commanders in Daqian, many of whom are world-renowned. Go talk to them and see if they'll listen to reason.

There are also many female officials in charge of government offices in various places, who handle local government affairs in an orderly manner. They say that they are not allowed to interfere in government affairs. Daqian has been implemented everywhere in the world. Who dares to question it?

actually......

It has only been more than half a year since the uprising, and the world has been reformed and the Daqian dynasty has been established. Although the time is short, the customs among the people have changed greatly, and the phenomenon of gender discrimination has been greatly improved.

One of these is that under the rule of Daqian, all places can at least maintain a minimum level of food and clothing. When it is enough to survive, ordinary families will not treat the women in their family the same way as before. In the past, living conditions were difficult, and every household was barely making ends meet. Women's labor force could hardly compare with men, and family property, land, etc. also needed to be inherited by male descendants. In addition, female descendants will always get married when they grow up. Marrying a daughter is like pouring water, and is often regarded as a loss of money. As a result, the phenomenon of despising and ignoring daughters, and even abandoning baby girls is countless among the people, and it is rampant despite repeated bans!

Without mentioning the distant past, let's just take the four sisters [Plum, Orchid, Bamboo and Chrysanthemum] around Wu Xingyun as an example. They were abandoned by their parents. Although it was cruel and heartless, being quadruplets, all girls, was indeed no different from four heavy burdens for an ordinary family.

These difficult living conditions are a very important factor leading to the preference for boys over girls.

Now that living conditions are basically met, such incidents have naturally been greatly reduced. It is hard to say that those people who abandon baby girls are cold-blooded and heartless. They really can't bear it and can't afford it. But if conditions improve, there will still be very few people who are really willing to abandon their babies.

Secondly, women throughout Daqian were able to join the military and engage in politics. Teaching, literacy, and martial arts in schools were also open to women. Job recommendations in various places were not limited to men. There were even some jobs that only women could do. This situation enabled women under Daqian's rule to effectively and closely participate in social production, labor, and the public sphere, and directly or indirectly elevated the social status of women.

Sometimes, no matter how much or how well you say it, it is not as useful as real benefits.

One is to be able to participate in work. If you are recommended for a good job, the salary can also be enviable. One person's monthly salary is enough to support himself or herself, and even the whole family. This is the impact of economic independence.

Another thing is that Daqian attaches great importance to schools in various places. The training resources enjoyed by female students are no less than those of male students. Looking at the current institutional situation of coexistence of men and women in the Daqian system, we can guess that as long as they show enough excellence, there may be opportunities in the future to select promising talents and truly join the Daqian official system, just like the imperial examinations in previous dynasties.

Under the support of various realistic conditions, the change of customs and habits is formed spontaneously, and the change of concepts is also natural.

So, except for the initial period of the uprising, people still thought it was extremely shocking for women to join the army and politics. However, today, regardless of how concepts and ideas have changed, people have actually gradually accepted this fact.

The common people gladly accepted it because it was in their own interest, and the aristocratic families and the scholar-officials could not be said to be too resistant to it.

After all, even fundamental interests such as land and property were confiscated, and status and position were completely cut off, so such a minor difference between men and women did not matter.

Besides, Daqian attaches importance to women, which is actually beneficial to them. After all, the women and female relatives of the original scholarly families and noble families are definitely far superior to those of ordinary people in terms of knowledge, insights and experience. They can perform well in many aspects and stand out.

Although this advantage would gradually be eliminated under the Daqian system, a system that established education in various places and spared no effort in training, it was indeed the case at least in the early stages.

For example, the position of female teacher in a school is an excellent place to go. Many people from surviving aristocratic families or from scholar-official backgrounds would hope to arrange their daughters or clan daughters there. They are politically astute and can find that this is a shortcut to success. Not to mention being promoted to a certain level of official or even being transferred from an official to an official, it is hard to say how many female students one can come into contact with in such a school, and how much achievements they will have in the future. If one or two of them emerge, it means they have connections. Even without mentioning these, it is still an excellent job with a high status and respect.

There are many more positions like this.

No matter what, it is a very beneficial place.

It's natural not to resist anything too much.

This is how the upper and lower customs changed and became the occupation.

Chapter 524: Shackles! Restrictions! Paths!

Fang Han put down the memorial and smiled slightly. "The first phase of the plan has been completed relatively perfectly. Next, the focus of the second phase will not only be on external expansion and internal governance, but also on maintaining the same pace. We must also pay more attention to the school system. The promotion of spiritual plants and exotic species, the development of elixirs, etc. must also be put on the agenda."

The fourth round of simulation is a two-pronged approach. While expanding territory and governing the world, the methods of martial arts must also be fully promoted. It is better to say that the two complement each other.

In the third round of simulation, although he also preached the Dharma throughout the world, due to the ancient background, the illiteracy rate among the people in the world was surprisingly high. It was impossible for them to practice the magical skills even if they were in front of them. Moreover, the survival of the people in various places became a problem, let alone whether to practice or not. Without these conditions, all these things greatly restricted and hindered the prosperity of the martial arts.

At that time, in the early stage of preaching, people from major sects, aristocratic families, princes and nobles were the first to start practicing the methods of martial arts.

Needless to say, all the major martial arts sects in the world have inherited martial arts traditions from the same lineage, which allows them to directly participate in them and practice their methods. This is their absolute backbone.

Especially those martial arts masters and geniuses. The former have accumulated martial arts knowledge for decades. With the help of the method, they can quickly transform it into their own strength, quickly transforming and becoming stronger. Representatives of this kind include Zhang Zhenren of Wudang and the Sweeping Monk of Shaolin, as well as otherworldly masters such as the Second Island Master Long Mu.

The latter are the chosen ones of heaven, with excellent bones, talents, comprehension and luck. After having a foundation in martial arts, this type of people can quickly cultivate to the essence and depth when encountering magical skills and martial arts methods, and rise to the top in the world. There are many representatives of this type, but if we talk about those who have risen purely by talent, Shi Potian is the most famous one. In the last round of simulation, he came into contact with the Seven Chapters of Beiming relatively late, but he was able to catch up and cultivate the Beiming Taixuan Chapter, and became one of the best in the world!

In addition to these martial arts celebrities and chosen ones, the martial arts sects in the world also have their own profound heritage. Over the past hundreds of years, they have sent many talented disciples to the immortal sect. It can be said that they are a kind of faction with a long history.

The aristocratic families, rulers of various countries, princes and nobles are slightly inferior. At the beginning, most of them may not be involved in the inheritance of martial arts, but because they have knowledge and background, they do not have to start from scratch when practicing martial arts. In addition, due to the strong secular forces, once they start to pay attention, the resources alone are not comparable to the martial arts sects. Therefore, relying on the accumulation of resources, they have also produced many masters of internal force. However, the practice of martial arts does not rely solely on resources, but also depends on comprehension, foundation, and character. Compared with the martial arts sects with authentic martial arts background, they are still far behind.

This kind of foundation does not refer to the so-called martial arts secrets or magical skills. After the preaching, the skills are no longer a shackle. With the Beiming Immortal Gate, anyone can go to the Taoist Palace's [Martial Arts Pavilion] to read. The essence of the world's martial arts is gathered there. The fourth-level magical skills, the fifth-level Beiming Seven Chapters and other subsequent methods of the true qi realm are all methods that can be read freely. The so-called foundation refers to the tricks, essentials, and subtleties of practice. Without the inheritance of a master, these things will undoubtedly be difficult and obscure if you rely solely on yourself to figure them out.

The so-called false transmission of ten thousand volumes of scriptures is not as good as true transmission of one single sentence.

This may not be entirely true, especially after Fang Han's preaching, but it does make sense.

Many times, months or even years of pondering on your own may not be as effective as a word of guidance from a famous teacher.
