In a roadside teahouse, Jun Xian and the Seventh Prince watched the sudden outbreak of rumor crisis together.
A simple matter immediately changed its meaning after being publicized by the people, and finally changed its meaning completely.
"It is more difficult to guard against the people's mouths than to guard against the river!" Jun Xian poured a cup of tea for the Seventh Prince and said softly.
The Seventh Prince silently drank his tea, but asked in a voice transmission: "Wasn't this idea proposed by you, sir? Father also knows about it. Father will definitely not investigate Situ Yuanhang."
Jun Xian didn't say anything, but repeated again: "It is more difficult to guard against the people's mouths than to guard against the river."
The Seventh Prince lowered his head to sip his tea, but in his heart he repeatedly chewed on this sentence, gradually tasting a little taste. He immediately sent a voice message and asked, "Sir, what you mean is that once there is a huge public pressure, the emperor will not be able to go against public opinion. Knowing that Situ Yuanhang is innocent, will you still dismiss Situ Yuanhang and investigate him?"
"No." Jun Xian shook his head. "When the public opinion becomes hard to go against, dismissal and investigation will no longer be enough to appease the public anger. Only..."
There was a light flashing in the eyes of the Seventh Prince. What was that? Jun Xian didn't say it, but the Seventh Prince understood it clearly. After the "public outcry" was aroused, Situ Yuanhang had no choice but to "die to thank the world".
Jun Xian poured tea for the Seventh Prince again and said softly, "Lord Situ is a good man."
The Seventh Prince took the teacup, savored Jun Xian's words for a long time, and agreed: "Yes, Lord Situ is a good man!"
Situ Yuanhang took on the responsibility of opening the seal of the evil way, treason, the feud between the monarch and his subjects, and the people's grievances. He took the blame for the entire country on his own. What a great man he was.
Situ Yuanhang himself is an upright and honest official, and even more of a good person.
…
The distant fertile land of Shenzhou seemed to have no connection with the Shang Kingdom for the time being, and at this time the Shang Kingdom was fighting against the demon tribe.
From the moment the war began, the artillery fire never stopped.
With the powerful production and transportation capabilities of the Shang Kingdom, military supplies from all over the country poured into the front line like a tide. At the same time, a large number of corpses of monsters and demons were harvested and sent to the rear.
The war between the eastern countries of Yingzhou gradually died down under the pressure of the attacks of the demon tribe and the mediation of the Shang Kingdom.
To be precise, the Shang Kingdom offered a condition that no one could refuse, which was a strategy formulated by Yuan Yong.
The strategy is to exchange military merit for technology.
Li Xian had planned to make the oil refining technology public all at once, but Yuan Yong used a clever trick. He split the oil refining technology into thousands of large and small technologies, and then labeled each technology with corresponding military merit.
Want technology? It's simple, exchange it with military merit! Where do military merits come from? Go to the front line and kill the monsters! And as long as you go to the front line, the Shang Kingdom can provide arms and help you train the army!
The result is naturally self-evident. Driven by justice and interests, various countries began to send troops to the Shang Kingdom.
However, there is a hidden factor behind these countries’ enthusiasm—the residual ore of Yuanci!
Now everyone knows that there is a battlefield between the Shang Kingdom and the demon race, which is called a meat grinder. This battlefield is the area of the Yuanci residual mine. The Shang Kingdom and the demon race have fought here countless times.
