Chapter 245 Pros and Cons 2
After the destruction of Huangling Immortal Palace, the behemoths that shrouded several nearby areas began to collapse.
In addition, local snakes and power leaders in several nearby areas were implicated in the matter of Frost Snow Concubine, which resulted in many places becoming vulnerable after the people and monsters of the Demon-Conquering Legion fought against them.
Jiangdong's territory is constantly expanding, and Chen Taiyi's resting place has also been moved from the small county town to nearby Wangchun City.
Chen Taiyi looked down at the city from the sky. The city was tall and clean. The nearby villages and towns more than ten kilometers away were all prosperous, and there were no traces of dilapidation.
"Strange, are you living well here?"
Chen Taiyi had previously believed that the people of Zeguo were not living well. In addition, the monarch of Zeguo was stupid and immoral, and introduced the relationship between the demons of Ten Thousand Moling Mountains. As a result, the people all fled and their lives were destitute.
Now quietly observing this city that had just surrendered, Chen Taiyi discovered: It seems to be different from what I thought...
Chen Taiyi landed on the ground, picked a small branch at random, folded the small branch into a square frame and laid it flat on the ground.
Soon, five more pebbles were pinched out from the ground.
"Which one is better, Zeguo or Jiangdong?"
As soon as Mrs. Chen told her divination question, she quickly threw the pebbles in her hand into the frame.
The five pebbles quickly landed quietly on the ground in a random position.
Chen Taiyi's eyes widened, "How is it possible? I must have made a mistake in divination. How could it be Ze Guohao?"
Chen Taiyi quickly performed divination twice in succession, and the answers he got were exactly the same as the first time.
Hello Zeguo!
"Your Majesty, what are you doing?" Da Qiao came over and saw Chen Taiyi throwing stones for fun, so he came over to remind him.
When Chen Taiyi saw Da Qiao, he quickly said: "Da Qiao, you can do divination, right? Come and help me divination. For ordinary people, is it better to live in Zeguo or Jiangdong!"
Da Qiao walked up to Chen Taiyi, quickly counted with his fingers, and said with a frown, "Most people think it's better here, maybe because it's hard to leave our homeland."
In fact, she knows the answer very well. Zeguo is more livable than Jiangdong in terms of aura and environment.
What's more important is that there are actually very few taxes in Zeguo, which are mainly used to provide services to the big families.
The land output here is extremely high, and the people live and work in peace and contentment. Many people prefer artistic talents in poetry and culture.
For the upper class people, Zeguo has a lot of spiritual energy and is a good place.
For middle-class people, the cultural atmosphere here is very strong and relatively free.
For the lower class, the taxes here are much lower than those in Jiangdong...
The population of Jiangdong is only over 10 million, which is due to random incorporation, while the population of Zeguo has already exceeded 100 million.
Chen Taiyi still couldn't figure it out, "If everyone thinks this place is good, why can our army reach here?"
Da Qiao showed a puzzled expression, "Your Majesty, does this matter? Everyone thinks this place is good, but it doesn't mean that we in Jiangdong are weak."
Chen Taiyi said anxiously: "Then aren't we evil invaders?"
Da Qiao looked at Chen Taiyi dumbfounded!
She didn't discover this fact from Chen Taiyi, but she was shocked that Chen Taiyi would have such an idea?!
Just when Da Qiao didn't know how to explain, Xiao Guang nearby spoke.
"This place was not Zeguo's territory before, and it doesn't belong to whoever occupies it. They are all people born from heaven and earth. Why can't you, brother Taiyi, be the king here?"
Xiaoguang said seriously: "Brother Taiyi, you are the son of destiny. The great king of Zeguo is just a mortal. He can't even make the Zezhou Ding, which means that the people of Zeguo don't regard him as a human king at all!"
Chen Taiyi thought about it carefully and found that he couldn't understand.
Xiaoguang continued: "This land belongs to this land, not to people. Maybe it used to belong to monsters, spiritual beasts, etc. Anyway, it belongs to whoever occupies it. It's destiny, it doesn't matter anyway."
Chen Taiyi said blankly: "This land belongs to this land... Well! Yes, this land belongs to this land. If I become the emperor, I will let everyone live a good life!"
Da Qiao smiled and said: "Your Majesty is wise!"
Xiaoguang also shouted happily: "Zeguo will definitely become our territory soon!"
Chen Taiyi had no understanding of Zeguo's people's livelihood issues at all, and had no idea how backward he brought.
Zeguo's art, culture, civil service system, and much of its upper-class culture are already very mature.
It's a pity that Yu Ling made Chen Taiyi have the same writing and car rules and directly imposed the system.
Driven by the villains and converts of the Demon-Conquering Legion, many original things were destroyed in a very short period of time.
For a while, Chen Taiyi carefully observed the surroundings and gradually determined that this place was really much better than Jiangdong.
This place alone is better than Jiangdong Royal City, and the big cities in Naze Kingdom are definitely several times better than Jiangdong.
However, the outcome of a war does not depend on the living standards of most people, and public opinion cannot affect the direction of the war.
The smarter he was, the less he liked his own cleverness. Chen Taiyi didn't want to think about these positive and negative things, and soon he couldn't leave the house and started living the careless life of a stay-at-home boy again.
Every day I pestered Yu Ling for help. After a month, Yu Ling pushed the front line a lot further. In addition, Chen Taiyi had been away for a long time, so he and Yu Ling separated and returned to Jiangdong.
As soon as they returned to Renwang City, Huang Wanzhen and Kui Wenji stood beside Chen Taiyi, one on the left and one on the right.
There was also a row of boys, girls, and young girls standing in front of Mrs. Chen.
"Father!" the children shouted in unison.
Whenever this happens, Chen Taiyi will feel several years older.
"Well, I brought back a lot of good things from Zeguo this time. Xiao Qiao, go and share some delicious things with the children."
Chen Taiyi showed off his authority as a father, but there was no authority at all. He didn't know how to educate children, so he left it to his family members.
The children quickly shouted happily: "Thank you, father, for the reward!"
Mrs. Chen nodded and quickly walked inside.
Huang Wanzhen and Kui Wenji supported Chen Taiyi and walked inside. As they passed the quiet and majestic palace, Kui Wenji took the initiative to talk about recent events.
First, he talked about government affairs and his parents' matters at home. After the explanation, he talked about the children's matters, and then talked about some personal matters.
Kui Wenji said charmingly: "Your Majesty, we have recently trained more than 20 graceful girls for you, with clean family backgrounds and well-educated girls. They are all good at singing, dancing, reciting poems and composing poems. Please stay here for a while longer this time."
Let them serve you well."
Chen Taiyi heard something that was a happy thing for her, but the person who said this was full of prayers, as if she, as the recipient, could agree to this, as if it was charity to her.
The reason is also very simple. My family members all want me to stay.
Chen Taiyi thought about Chen DaDao again. If his wife and parents at home begged him to stay on their knees, would he agree?
Most likely you won't agree and just turn around and leave quietly.
After all, Chen Taiyi was not Chen Da Dao. He smiled and said, "Well, there is nothing going on outside. Just leave the war to Yu Ling. I will live well here."
Both Kui Wenji and Huang Wanzhen showed excited expressions. They were both good at running the household and had been busy since they got married. While having children, they also had to keep sorting out the trivial government affairs in Jiangdong, and took care of all the things that Chen Taiyi had left behind.
Organize and wrap things up properly.
However, at this time, they are the ones hoping to receive charity.
Chen Taiyi suggested: "I actually like beauties who can dance. They should have big breasts, speak nicely, and have a plump body."
Kui Wenji and Huang Wanzhen both smiled and wrote down these conditions.
Jiangdong has gradually settled down, and it won't take long for Zeguo to occupy it.
Compared with the things outside, Kui Wenji and Huang Wanzhen were more afraid that Chen Taiyi would leave Jiangdong without saying a word in order to pursue the immortal way.
At night, Chen Taiyi was lying on the bed, feeling the warmth of the two beauties around him, and suddenly felt like he was on the wrong side.
From a spiritual perspective, I am the opposite.
Zeguo and Jiangdong themselves are also on the opposite side.
Even when it comes to governing the country and family issues, I am on the opposite side.
Chen Taiyi opened his eyes and thought for more than ten seconds, then quickly turned his head and stopped thinking.
Immersed in Kui Wenji and Huang Wanzhen's caring attention, Chen Taiyi's mind quickly became empty.
It’s better to be a big sister~
