The whole nation of Qing cursed Jing madly!
The discussion list is in chaos.
Scholars from all over the world expressed surprise and schadenfreude.
Everyone's reactions were very consistent; this was definitely a plan that Fang Yun had made in advance!
Not to mention Li Wenying, even Zhang Poyue, a talkative and tough guy, would at most dare to seize Yongzhou, but definitely not have the guts to seize Lingzhou.
Many scholars marveled that now the entire Jing Kingdom also had a kind of Fangyun temperament.
Either you are committing suicide or you are on the way to committing suicide.
Not only foreign scholars, but even scholars in Jing Country were shocked by the cabinet's plan. They didn't know what to say except shaking their heads and smiling bitterly.
In a sense, Fang Sheng killing Qing Jun might just look exciting, but the actual impact is actually not that great. After all, many people knew many years ago that once Fang Yun was canonized as a saint, he would never spare Qing Jun.
This time, we will first seize the state of the sub-saint family and then surround the state of the half-saint. Both the consequences and the impact will far exceed killing Qing Jun.
After receiving this news, many people were filled with worry.
The disputes among those below the semi-saint level can be controlled. If they really get out of hand, the Holy Academy can resolve it with a single order.
But when the Semi-Saint personally participated in the battle for the Holy Path, his move was earth-shattering.
All the disputes between semi-saints and saints in the history of the human race were sealed up by the Holy Academy, and only rumors existed among the people.
Every battle between semi-saints and holy paths can be described as brutal. Although the victorious side benefits greatly, it promotes the growth of the human race as a whole.
Jing State surrounded Fengzhou, which was like touching the tiger's butt and teasing the dragon's whiskers.
As the readers were chatting, they suddenly discovered a more serious problem.
Next, will Jingguo seize Fengzhou
As soon as this speculation came out, the discussion list was in an uproar, and countless scholars began to deduce.
No one believed it at first, but everyone ignored Jing Guo and only studied Fang Yun. They listed Fang Yun's deeds after he became famous, connected all the things into a line, and finally came to a conclusion.
Given Fang Yun's suicidal tendencies, he will definitely try to seize Fengzhou!
This result made many people laugh and cry, so much so that many scholars who were originally worried about the dispute over the Holy Way began to give up on themselves, shouting everywhere that since Fang Sheng was not afraid, there was nothing for them to be afraid of. The worst that could happen was that they could contribute to the growth of the human race, and their death would not be in vain.
Unlike the lively discussion board, Jingguo's behavior was very strange.
Because after Jing State announced the battle to seize Lingzhou, it did not send out a large army.
It was not until a month later that they slowly dispatched a large mechanized army to attack the first Lingzhou city.
Within a few days, news about Xizhou was spread through the "Minbao" and the forum.
At the beginning, it was the people of Xizhou who voiced opposition.
Xizhou was the home of a sub-sage family, and Qing was relatively wealthy. After being taken over by Jing, there was an unconcealable arrogance in their hearts.
So, when they discovered that the nouveau riche of Jing State had begun to carry out large-scale transformation of Xizhou, they habitually resisted.
However, due to the powerful strength of Jing State and the pressure of the new institutions, they dared not express themselves too extreme.
As a result, scholars in Xizhou began to complain and grumble in discussion forums, literary gatherings, and various teahouses and restaurants.
Most of the scholars who discussed the list sympathized with the people of Xizhou. After all, anyone would find it difficult to adapt to such an environment.
According to convention, within half a year, people from Xizhou can move directly back to Qingguo, so some people moved directly to other states.
The most unfortunate ones were those who moved to Lingzhou.
Most people in Xizhou are still waiting and watching, firstly to wait for the attitude of the Xunsheng family, and secondly to see how Jingguo treats them.
No matter how proud they were, they knew very well that Jingguo was developing too fast, and if they became Jingguo citizens, there might be more benefits.
As a result, the people of Xizhou were very disappointed because Jingguo did not treat anyone well at all. Except for winning over some high-ranking scholars, everything was business as usual.
The first thing the officials of Jing State did when they entered Xizhou was to use both legal and administrative means to force the people of Qing State to obey traffic rules, learn the Five Ethics and Four Beauties, learn various health knowledge, etc.
In the short term, this method aroused rebellious psychology in many people, but because the punishment was severe, everyone had to comply.
After only one month, some Xizhou people who were open to new things found that their lives had changed, the environment around them had changed, and everything seemed to have gotten a little better.
Not just the actual changes, but also everyone's mental state.
Many people used to look down on the people of Jing, but now, they are beginning to look down on the people of Qing!
Because everyone has discovered the benefits of change.
Once that kind of psychological sense of superiority is formed, it will be difficult to eradicate.
Not only that, with the transformation of Xizhou and the influx of businesses from all over Jingguo, the lives of Xizhou people have undergone tremendous changes.
The prices of most daily necessities such as grains, fruits, vegetables, meat, clothes, pots and pans, etc. have dropped across the board, and their quality has greatly improved.
In the past, many people used wooden basins that were easy to rot, and copper basins that were easy to rust and required frequent maintenance. Now, they use stainless iron basins, which are clean and shiny, and are much more durable and sturdy than the copper basins of the past.
The porcelain bowls used in the past were all made of crude ceramics, thick and dark. Now, the porcelain of Jingguo is thin, light, and translucent in color. In the past, they must have been used by the emperor.
Too many changes constantly shocked the people of Xizhou. When they realized that these things were commonplace in Jingguo, their arrogance towards Jingguo completely disappeared.
These new things will inevitably impact Xizhou's original business model, and many people will lose their jobs as a result.
However, Jing State did not resort to the strategy of wiping out the entire family. Instead, the government acted as a guarantor, with workshops and businesses in various parts of Xizhou contributing manpower, effort and money, and Jing State providing the technology, to carry out a comprehensive transformation of Qing State's workshops, mainly utilizing Xizhou's local resources to manufacture goods.
Because there were a large number of workers and scholars helping, even including people from the Holy Academy, the transformation process was very fast.
In just one month, earth-shaking changes took place in all parts of Xizhou.
When the changes in Xizhou spread throughout the Shengyuan Continent, many people began to envy the people of Xizhou.
At the same time, the Jing Kingdom's secret propaganda department began large-scale operations. In less than half a month, all the people in Qing Kingdom knew the benefits of joining the Jing Kingdom, and as far away as Xiangzhou and Haizhou, as close as Xizhou, there were living examples in front of them.
Then, some rumors began to spread throughout Qing Kingdom.
Jing State is particularly short of people now. No matter who they are, as long as they go to Jing State’s territory, or even to Ling State which is being seized, Jing State will accept them unconditionally.
As a result, a large number of poor people from Jing State moved to Xizhou and Lingzhou with their families.
By the time the Qingguo cabinet reacted, the number of people who had moved to the two places had exceeded one million households.
Initially, the Qing Kingdom believed that this level of population loss was unimportant and only asked local governments to look at it favorably.
However, with the continuous incitement of the Secret Propaganda Department, more and more people from Qing Kingdom began to go to Jing Kingdom.
Not long after, a piece of news shocked the government and the people of Qing Kingdom.
An entire village in Fengzhou of Qing Kingdom actually moved to Xizhou!
The Qing Kingdom quickly investigated and found out that it was the people of Jing who were behind this. Before they could react, the news spread like wildfire throughout the Qing Kingdom and on the discussion list.
The whole cabinet of Qingguo cursed and cursed, but it was of no avail.
