Murong Bing immediately raised his hand to calm down Qian Yuwei beside him, and at the same time stepped forward to help Wanyan Jing up.
"Then I won't bother you. When King Zhao wakes up, I must let him enter the palace. Just say that I want to say some personal words to him."
Wanyan Jing responded immediately.
"I, my concubine, obey the emperor's orders!"
At this moment, Murong Bing suddenly became jealous of Wanyan Jing.
If she had the same status as Wanyanjing, she might be able to stay by Zhao Rui's side openly.
"This time King Zhao has made extraordinary achievements for our great businessman. I don't know how to reward him. Otherwise, I will grant you the title of Princess Chunyuan and the first rank of Madam! The imperial decree for the canonization will be issued soon.
Will be sent over."
Wanyanjing was immediately flattered. She was just a witch from a small tribe in the mountains and forests of Northeast China.
It's just that I was lucky enough to meet Zhao Rui, and that's what made me what I am today.
Murong Bing had already given her enough rewards, and today he gave her such an identity, leaving her wondering what to do.
Before she could react, Murong Bing and Xiao Yuer had already left Prince Zhao's Mansion.
The old place of Chen and Song Dynasties, Wuluo City.
Liang Zhang and Tang Long took about twenty people, dressed as passing merchants, and checked into an inn.
The whole city looked extremely desolate, and children begging could be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys.
Some old people put straw flags on the heads of their children and grandchildren and knelt on the roadside, planning to sell their children to make a living.
But the pedestrians walking through the streets did not look wealthy. They were all in rags and rags, and even had little to eat. How could there be any extra money or food to buy these children back?
"My lord, remember that Wuluo City is the largest city after the capital of Chen and Song Dynasties. How could it be like this?"
Tang Long looked at the street below the attic, his eyes filled with sadness.
Liang Zhang picked up the tea cup and took a sip, with more sympathy on his face.
"The area south of the Yangtze River where Chen Song lived was extremely wealthy. Logically speaking, it shouldn't be like this. It should be that the people's grain reserves and wealth were confiscated by the Southern Chu court, which made it become like this."
Tang Long couldn't help but feel sympathy.
"I really don't understand why Your Majesty and His Royal Highness King Zhao don't send troops to annihilate Chen Song as soon as possible, so that the people here can at least have a full meal."
Liang Zhang chuckled and turned around the tea cup in his hand.
"The affairs of the world cannot be dealt with by one mind. If there is no reason to attack Chen Song, even if it is annihilated, it will trigger a civil uprising. Your Majesty and His Royal Highness King Zhao are considering the overall situation. A stable Chen Song is in their pocket.
That’s fine, if it’s a turbulent vassal state, don’t forget it.”
Tang Long nodded immediately. He vaguely understood some of these principles, but not all of them.
Now when I heard Liang Zhang say it, I suddenly understood.
Nowadays, although the Great Shang has destroyed most of the vassal states and unified half of the world, rebellions still occur in various regions from time to time.
It's just that the rule of the previous vassal states is deeply rooted in the local area, and the people can't turn around for a while.
In addition, there are still some nobles from vassal states among the people. They are still eager to restore the country and incite people to rebel everywhere.
Although it can't cause any big waves, it is still troublesome.
Fortunately, the national policies and systems of Dashang became deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after the reform, so that everyone in the world yearned for them and were not willing to follow the nobles in rebellion.
Besides, Dashang is the suzerain state of all the princes in the world, and it is absolutely orthodox.
