Bai Tan went to see Chief Liang to ask God to bless Tianshui City in the near future. But Master Liang asked God to give him a noncommittal answer.
I'm not sure, I just don't agree.
Bai Tan dared not force anyone to force the gods, so he came to Qingyang to ask for advice. This former Bejia old master had been dealing with gods for almost his whole life, so he must have a lot of experience.
Qingyang saw through the little Jiujiu in his belly at a glance, and said honestly and politely: "At this juncture, you go to God for blessings. What do you think?"
The gods played a decisive role in the incident at Yao Palace. Countless pairs of eyes saw the goddess Fenghe appear and open the palace gate for Bai Tan. They also witnessed the two gods descending to earth to fight against the beasts protecting the country of Yao.
Bai Tan wanted to strike while the iron was hot. If the gods agreed to hold a blessing ceremony in Tianshui City, it would be recognition of him, and he could bind himself to the gods.
As long as he holds on to divine grace, in this Yao country where all the people worship God, it will be legitimate and reasonable for him to overthrow the rule of King Yao and seize political power and the army.
But the temple is not a fuel-efficient lamp, so how can it easily fulfill his wish?
Bai Tan said sarcastically: "We started an incident suddenly, and Tianshui City is still in panic right now. I thought that God's blessing could soothe the fear and trauma of the subjects."
"The gods despised King Yao, so they ended his rule through your hands. The people will also know this." Qingyang pointed at him, "But if you want to win the recognition of the gods, your actions are far from enough!"
"The south gate of the palace city was opened for you by the goddess Fenghe. The clone of Qianhuan was driven away by two gods in person. What did you do?" She looked at him coolly, "You just gave it to King Yao with your own hands.
Wiped my neck."
Bai Frank wanted to speak but stopped.
He had to handle all kinds of work in front of and behind the scenes at full capacity. But Qingyang was right, the key to action was the link between God and Qingyang.
Probably because the gift just given had an effect, Qingyang's tone slowed down again: "You have done a good job in some things. Releasing food to help the people and stabilizing prices can indeed appease the people. However, you have to eat the food one bite at a time.
You have to do it one by one, you are too anxious."
This afternoon, Bai Tan asked all urban, district and county governments to post notices to protect the people, shops were open for business, grain stores resumed food supply, and the price dropped back to seven cents per catty!
That's astonishing - shockingly low.
Although it has not fallen back to the floor price of previous years, compared with the sky-high food prices before the Yaogong Incident, this price is like pie in the sky.
Bai Tan also ordered the county government to open porridge sheds to provide relief to the victims of the disaster, and the porridge base was not allowed to be as thin as water, and each disaster victim was given two steamed buns.
This is the big stick, followed by a sweet date.
Bai Tan caused a whole night of bloodshed in Tianshui City, and the next day he had to give some welfare to the civilians to appease him.
When King Yao was alive, the poor were almost out of food; when Bai Tan came to power, everyone had food to eat.
In this comparison, General Bai is better to civilians, right?
What's more, in order to create a grain shortage, he and Qingyang used a lot of manpower to frantically buy autumn grains on the market. Now, he is just putting this hidden grain back on the market. Isn't it more than enough to supply Tianshui City?
Bai Tan acted very modestly at this time: "Please teach me from the prison country!"
What he wants to ask is, how can he obtain the support of the gods?
"The Golden Plains has always respected the strong, and this is a law that even the gods must respect!" Qingyang said lightly, "Yao country has always been the most powerful country, so it has been favored by Miao Zhantian; King Yao
He was rejected by the gods because of his incompetence and mediocrity. If you want to reopen the prosperous age and rival the glory of the Yao Kingdom for two hundred years, you must prove yourself under the gaze of the gods and prove that you are worthy of sitting on the throne!"
If you want to ascend the throne or become king, there is only one way:
Beat all competitors!
Just like the Golden Empire a thousand years ago.
Just like the founder of Dayao two hundred years ago.
God will only favor the winner and will only support the only winner.
Qingyang continued: "If you capture Tianshui City, the entire Yao Kingdom's wealth will be in your hands, and the materials and soldiers will be extremely abundant. Compared with Chongwu, Luodian and other forces, you can say that you have an advantage. With this start,
Far better than everyone else.”
When someone else leads an army, they still have to worry about where to stay, about food and fodder, and about not being able to pay the troops. These troubles are all gone!
Bai Tan stood there for a while, then said in a deep voice:
"I understand, thank you, Supervisor, for clarifying my doubts!"
He really understood. It was not enough for him to kill King Yao and uproot the royal family; it was not enough for him to take the secret medicine and be loyal to the gods.
He has to defeat all his opponents before God will recognize him and bless him.
If you kill King Yao, you can easily take possession of the entire country, and there is no need to worry about it. Why has no one done this kind of good thing in the past two hundred years?
Bai Tan never dared to underestimate the difficulty of his road, but now he had an excellent start.
Qingyang looked at the treasure box on the carriage. Since someone came to her with sincerity, it would be unreasonable for her not to give them some advice. After all, Youhu Villa is still within the scope of Tianshui City, and she still lives in their territory.
superior.
When it comes to local snakes, you have to maintain three points of etiquette.
"Forget it, I'll show you a way."
Bai Tan immediately clasped his fists: "I'm just waiting for your words!"
"You have great advantages but don't realize it. That is 'divine grace'."
Bai Tan's expression changed: "But didn't you just say..."
Didn't it mean that he couldn't get help from the gods before he swept across all directions?
"The gods are silent most of the time, watching with cold eyes. This is true for you, and it is also true for your opponents. But -" Qingyang said slowly, "Feng He appeared when he attacked Yao Palace, and the two gods came, but
It was all in full public view, and I don’t know how many people witnessed it with their own eyes. Since yesterday, the saying that ‘the gods will help you defeat the Yao King’ began to spread rapidly. Now, do you know what to do?”
Bai Tan grinned when he heard the last two sentences: "If I say that I bathe in divine grace, the gods and temples won't object, right?"
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! Qingyang smiled and said nothing. Even the gods were too lazy to clarify such a trivial matter.
It is true that the gods will not come out to bless Baitan again, but they will not go out of their way to explain that they are not optimistic about Baitan!
And Bai Tan seemed to have divine help yesterday. No, it wasn't "if there was", it was indeed there!
To ordinary people, to the majority of believers in the God of Heaven, and even to most of Yao Kingdom, he is the chosen one!
Even the gods like him, so why should the people not fear and love him?
Bai was frank, but still a little worried: "Won't God bless other people?"
"Don't worry." Qingyang's words had a profound meaning, "They treat everyone equally."
The gods will no longer bless Bai Tan, and similarly, the gods will not bless anyone else.
From now on, only the victors can enter their eyes!
Bai Tan was overjoyed, and a big stone fell in his heart.
Calculating it this way, he has a great chance of winning. Not only does he occupy most of Yao Kingdom's resources, but he can also steal God's grace to support himself.
The dual advantages of favorable location and people are all on his side.
After hearing what he wanted to hear, Bai Tan stopped lingering and immediately bowed and left.
Qingyang smiled: "I'm injured, so I won't send you to the door. Yuan Xuan, you see General Bai off for me."
Before turning around, Bai Tan glanced at Qingyang again.
At this time, he really regretted his miscalculation on the night of the incident, not leaving Qingyang in the city.
After the Yao Palace Incident, she immediately moved back to Youhu Xiaozhu on the pretext of recovering from her injuries and became the shopkeeper of Shuanshou. This was delegating power, allowing Bai Tan to control and develop freely in the huge Tianshui City.
She stated that she would not interfere, and Bai Tan was a little happy and proud at first. After all, Qingyang and King Yao had been fighting for power for more than half a year. But when he actually took over the power, he realized that something was wrong.
Qingyang seemed to have returned to her previous aloof status, standing by and watching his distress, but in fact her status had not declined at all.
Because Bai Tan's power was stolen and he was not in the right position!
The Yao Kingdom has been in existence for nearly two hundred years, which is a rare longevity in the Shining Gold Plains. The people of the country recognize it far more than the people of the Shining Gold. It is difficult to win over the people if it is killed by Bai Tan.
When he was young, he also went to Lingxu City to study, read many history books, and knew that in a national upheaval, the person who rebelled and killed the emperor was often not the final winner.
What Bai Tan wants to avoid is to make wedding clothes for others and destroy the Yao Kingdom for other interested people, but in the end he fails to reap the fruits of victory.
But the more chaotic the situation in this country becomes, the more transcendent Qingyang's status becomes.
She represents the will of the Bega Empire, and she can also maintain good communication with the gods.
This means that any force that wants to hook up with Bega and gain recognition from the gods must come to her to beg her.
She will become the hub of communication between all parties.
Not to mention, if Bai Tan wanted to talk to Chongwu, wouldn't he have to ask her to help him?
This is the power Qingyang regained!
It seems that there is no competition, but in fact, everyone is controlled.
The old palace master who firmly holds the top position of Bejia's Imperial Master is not a fool at all. Only those who face her directly can understand the pressure Bai Tan feels.
Bai Tan's departure was still a bit heavy.
As Qingyang said, the strong ones are respected in the Golden Plains. If he wanted to sit on the throne, he had to defeat the challenger.
Not one, not two, but all!
Respect and recognition must be obtained through strength.
"Come into the house." Watching him leave, Qingyang was playing with the newly acquired Huang Tianzhang and was in a good mood. "Make me a fragrant tea with roses and cinnamon."
…
The moon is bright tonight, so there is no need to hold a lamp along the way, the reflected light from the ice and snow can illuminate the way forward.
But on the way to Youhu Xiaozhu, Bai Ziqi and his party encountered rogue bandits.
These are all refugees who escaped from the city.
A robbery occurred in the suburbs of Tianshui City. This was unimaginable before, but now no one cares about it.
When Bai Ziqi arrived, Qingyang had just finished changing his medicine and was having a meal.
"Master Bai, you're late." Qingyang invited him to sit with him. "I brought back two jars of pear blossom wine from Prince Yao's palace last night. It is said to be twenty years old and tastes sweet. In the past, Prince Yao was reluctant to give it to him."
Her tone was friendly and casual. If Bai Ziqi hadn't just left Tianshui City, he wouldn't have realized the horror contained in this sentence.
