Chapter 688 Zhong Shengwan is Shen Cangzhu's family?
Their speechless expressions made the soldiers guarding the gate laugh, "Yes, that's what you think. You also know that this battle will not stop until it is over."
The scholar nodded, his tone gentle but firm, "You are destined to become our great Chu people."
He really said the most domineering words in the gentlest tone.
The old man Wu Guo, who had been nervous about escaping, suddenly relaxed his tense shoulders.
He looked at the scholar carefully and wanted to ask him who he was, but he didn't dare.
The literati is actually Shen Cangzhu.
He just arrived.
Originally, he was assigned to manage the previous city, but he didn't expect that Lingzhou Zhou Buyan was too fierce and quickly conquered another city.
After he straightened things out a little bit, he finally rushed over again. His Majesty sent another person to the previous city.
However, the county magistrate who was originally sent to assist him was unable to bear the return to Dachu because he was not acclimated to the climate.
In the end, it turned out that Zhong Sheng was transferred late.
Shen Cangzhu smiled bitterly when he heard the order, and felt a little headache. Finally, he went to pick up Zhong Shengwan and come with him.
Zhong Shengwan was with him and didn't want to say a word except to talk about looking for Xiao Ming.
But it was also along the way that she saw that Shen Cangzhu was also looking for Xiao Ming with the same attention, and even developed the habit of looking at children of Xiao Ming's size a few times just like her. She knew that what he said before was true.
He was really looking for Xiao Ming.
Apart from her, she is the most caring person in the world.
In fact, after such a long time, when I calm down and think about it, I can’t blame Shen Cangzhu entirely for what happened to Xiao Ming.
She was angry, but Shen Cangzhu endured it all the time.
After thinking about it a lot, Zhong Shengwan has decided to assist Shen Cangzhu in the future and will do his best at work.
Seeing the old man's hesitation, the bell appeared at the right time with a gentle voice.
"Whatever you want to ask, uncle, just ask."
Zhong Sheng Wan was a girl and was so gentle, which made the old man take courage.
"You will really let us go and let us continue to live such a peaceful life? Will you not bully us?"
What they fear most is that Da Chu is just pretending to be nice now, and then he changes his face and starts to bully and humiliate them.
As soon as he said this, the people behind him and the people of Wu who were secretly watching nearby all pricked up their ears to listen.
Shen Cangzhu could obviously tell. He took a look at Zhong Shengwan and suddenly felt that it would be a good match with Zhong Shengwan. Apart from anything else, Zhong Shengwan had a good eye and could speak.
With this in mind, Shen Cangzhu raised his voice and said, "I think you all have heard a little bit about who our Queen of Chu is."
"When she broke the city, she ordered the soldiers of Da Chu not to harm you, and the soldiers of Da Chu did so."
"We didn't touch you when we destroyed the city. What's more, after the city was destroyed, we all know what you think and worry about, but you are indeed worried too much."
"You may still think that you are from the Wu Kingdom, but in the hearts of our Queen and here, you are already fully-fledged Chu people."
"Unless you voluntarily give up the opportunity to become a member of Da Chu and go against us, Da Chu, then you are all members of Da Chu, so why should we embarrass you."
After hearing this, the people of the original Wu State relaxed their brows.
For them, whether they are Wu people or Dachu people, they are actually just living their lives.
As long as whoever makes them live a good life, they don't care whether they are from Dachu or Wu.
After all, they had been unified before, separated and reunited, and that was it.
They fell silent. Zhong Shengwan leaned into Shen Cangzhu's ear and said a few words. Shen Cangzhu was stunned and finally nodded.
With Shen Cangzhu's consent, Zhong Sheng took a step forward and bowed slightly to the people. "Before I can introduce it to you, we are officials sent by Da Chu. This is County Sheriff Shen, and I am the county assistant to the county governor." Cheng, the bell is ringing late."
After her introduction, everyone onlookers and the soldiers guarding the city were startled and immediately greeted her.
Shen Cangzhu returned the greeting, and Zhong Shengwan next to him returned the same greeting.
Although they did not wear official uniforms and although they were dusty, their demeanor and etiquette made no one doubt their identity.
What's even more surprising is that Zhong Shengwan turns out to be the county magistrate.
Everyone was very surprised. They originally thought that Zhong Shengwan was Shen Cangzhu's family member.
Although everyone has long known that Dachu had an imperial examination and that women could participate in the imperial examination and become officials in the court, most of them had only heard about it and thought it was untrue.
I didn't expect to see him suddenly, and he was actually the county magistrate.
This county magistrate is very powerful. I thought that even if the woman was an official, she would only be a minor official, but I didn't expect that she would be used in an important role.
Zhong Shengwan is so beautiful, and she is such a young girl, it is impossible not to be curious.
All shocked and inquiring eyes fell on Zhong Shengwan. Zhong Shengwan had experienced it once before and was very calm.
Their identification and the late appearance of the bell really diverted everyone's attention.
But everyone was still a little nervous, especially the old man who wanted to go out.
Zhong Shengwan noticed it and said directly, "After we are busy here, we will notify everyone in a few days to register. When you receive your Dachu identity, please remember to come early."
"The first thousand people who register and express their willingness to become Dachu people will receive Dachu welfare packages, which will contain cotton cloth, grain seeds, needlework, etc. as rewards."
"The number is limited, there are only 1,000 people, first come first served, everyone hurry up when the time comes."
"The reason for the reward is to hope that everyone will actively cooperate with us. This will be good for everyone. If everyone does not actively register, it will be troublesome if the government comes to investigate and finds people who have not registered."
The words of "Zhong Sheng Wan" are both soft and hard.
And as soon as this was said, everyone's focus suddenly turned to the question of whether to register early.
Go early, as if you can't wait to betray Wu, but don't go, because you want the benefits.
Contradictions are contradictions, I believe they will definitely go first in the end.
This is a good idea I came up with after seeing the crowd at the city gate after the bell was ringing. It was also based on my working experience in the previous city.
Ordinary people cannot resist this kind of welfare and free things.
What's more, the benefits she agreed to give are indeed quite a lot. If this goes well, this practice can be continued in the future, and the cities that will take over next will continue to use it.
Zhong Shengwan is better than Shen Cangzhu in grasping the psychology of the people.
Seeing that everyone was encouraged, worry flashed in the eyes of the old man who was about to leave the city gate before, and he couldn't help but ask, "What if the Wu Kingdom comes back again? Those who take the initiative to register will be the target of public criticism."
"Don't worry, Wu Guo can't attack." Shen Cangzhu spoke in a calm but confident tone.
Because of his confidence, he didn't even bother to explain more about this issue.
Zhong Shengwan smiled and explained in real time, "Anyway, you will be forced to become ordinary people in the end. Rather than being found out, it is better to take the initiative to advance and still receive benefits."
A beautiful little girl with a gentle but domineering voice.
"You will know from now on how great the welfare of Da Chu is."
"If nothing else, at least the Queen of Chu is a hundred times more powerful than your Queen of Wu."
