The prince of heaven only wants salted fish
Chapter 53: The lazy and greedy leader Wu (1)
In the battle of Pingcheng, Li Heng was shot in the head by Ji Cheng on the city wall, and died. The soldiers defending the city on the Beixia side were abandoned. Now their commander was killed, and there were enemies inside and outside the city, so it was unlikely that they could make any outstanding and effective resistance.
So the final result was very simple and brutal: Daning rescued most of the hostages in the city at a very small cost and took Pingcheng.
So far, Daning officially recovered all the lost land in the battle with Beixia fifty years ago, and washed away the shame of Pingcheng.
After this battle, the weather became colder and colder. Daning did not "pursue the victory" again, and Beixia's plan to set up an ambush and counterattack after Pingjin River was naturally shattered.
Winter passed and spring came. After a winter, Beixia did not catch its breath, but fell into a new round of chaos. The noble alliance that had cooperated to drive Li Heng out of the struggle fell apart, and there were countries outside that continued to harass and attack Beixia, not to mention the lack of food in their country after the continuous war.
Originally, this kind of robbery style should have been their Beixia characteristics, but now it has been learned by other countries.
However, Daning, which had previously caused great pressure on Beixia, was now leisurely and did not send troops northward. At most, it occasionally sent some guerrillas and fired a cannon at Beixia’s territory. More often, it closed the door and concentrated on re-incorporating the ten cities it had recovered into its own territory.
So when Beixia gradually fell apart, Daning was busy promoting new agricultural tools, popularizing children’s education, and implementing various new systems such as examinations and selection. At the same time, it also showed a friendly attitude to the outside world: As long as you don’t like Beixia, we are good friends!
Beixia: ...
In the sixth year of Jianhua in Daning, Beixia declared its split.
The nobles who were fighting for power and profit were unwilling to submit to each other, and there was pressure from other countries to attack from outside, so the huge empire was torn apart, and several forces circled the land and ruled each other, as if returning to the tribal era.
The only advantage of doing this is that everyone will no longer have a chaotic command and unclear camp when dealing with attacks from other countries. However, after such a split, Beixia is not as strong as before. Now they can still resist, but what about after that?
It can be said that it is only a matter of time before this country disappears completely.
In the tenth year of Jianhua in Daning, a cold wave hit, and the fields in Beixia were almost barren, and even many livestock were frozen to death. The food was exhausted, and the civilians and nobles in the country were complaining. At this time, Daning, which had been recuperating for several years, joined forces with other countries around it and sent troops to Beixia again.
Now the strength of the two sides is no longer what it used to be.
So the war lasted less than a year, and the final result was that most of the branches of Beixia surrendered to Daning, and a small part moved north again, retreating to the mountains and plateaus in the north to survive, and the former Beixia Kingdom officially disappeared in history.
Daning replaced Beixia and became the most powerful country on the continent today.
And the story after that was uneventful. In summary, it was basically the way of enriching the country and strengthening the army as the king - these things that Jicheng almost learned in the heavens were not difficult to use in a small world.
Although he was really a little irritable.
After all, it was not so easy to be an emperor. For example, he had to attend the morning court every day, find ways to balance the forces in the court, and deal with assassins who had great dreams of usurping the throne from time to time... In short, he was really busy.
If there was a choice, he would even be willing to abdicate to Jiang Li - after all, this man was simple-minded, and had almost endless motivation to struggle except for having a little daughter who cried all day at home to coax.
But he couldn't.
So in the decades that he stayed in this world, Ji Cheng skillfully used Jiang Li as a tool and implemented many policies that benefited the people. He weakened the monopoly of the old nobles on the court internally, and deterred and even annexed many neighboring countries externally. He broke the necks of at least ten assassins expressionlessly, and postponed the daily morning court time and changed it to one every three days, making an outstanding contribution to rejecting work involution.
Finally, he estimated that it was almost time, and passed the throne to the child he picked up from the royal family more than ten years ago, and then couldn't wait to get away.
——Si Ming and the others had better ensure that the next world is modern!
He wants to go online!!!
However, when Ji Cheng opened his eyes again, he knew that some people, no, gods, still let him down.
The scene inside the house was antique, and the corner of the sky outside the wooden window lattice was clear blue, and it was clear that there was no industrial pollution at a glance.
The most despairing thing was the middle-aged man in front of him. He was wearing a brocade robe, his hair was tied up with a jade crown, and his face, which was handsome in his youth, was full of anger: "Rebellious son, ahem... do you know your mistake?!"
Ji Cheng had just received all the memories of this body, and only realized that he was kneeling after hearing this sentence.
Just then, there was a sound of hurried footsteps behind him. A woman quickly passed him and grabbed the middle-aged man's hand, patting his back to calm him down: "Yushan, don't be angry. Cheng'er must have known his mistake after kneeling for so long."
She turned her head and winked at Ji Cheng: "Cheng'er, admit your mistake to your father!"
Ju Yushan was so angry that he coughed several times: "I just doted on him too much! That's why this kid has grown up like this! He is the leader of the martial arts world! Not to mention that he doesn't know any martial arts, he fights cocks and walks dogs all day, and now he even dares to go to brothels and gambling houses. If this gets out, where will our Mingju Villa's face be?!"
At this point, his voice was tinged with sadness: "The ancients said that loving a son is like killing a son. Now I really understand."
The woman continued to say: "What are you talking about..."
The two of them were pulling and tugging, accompanied by some words of persuasion from the maids and servants. Ji Cheng, who was still kneeling on the ground, couldn't help but think, how would ordinary people choose to solve family disputes?
He thought for a moment, then rolled his eyes neatly and fell to the ground on the spot.
So this family farce has a new twist: "The young master has fainted from kneeling!!"
After the doctor packed up and left, Ji Cheng opened his eyes in time to "wake up".
There was only one maidservant left by his bed. When she saw Ji Cheng wake up, she handed him a bowl of black medicine: "Young Master, medicine."
Ji Cheng stared at the medicine for a long time, and said lazily: "Xiao Lian, this medicine looks so bitter, I don't want to drink it."
Xiao Lian said: "The doctor said that you have been kneeling for too long, and your blood and qi are stagnant. You have to drink this medicine."
Ji Cheng looked up and looked at Xiao Lian again: "One tael of silver."

Xiao Lian turned around and poured the medicine: "Deal."
——
The world of 8254 is different from the previous two worlds. The spiritual energy of this small world is much richer. Even the people here have a preliminary way to use the spiritual energy - martial arts.
This small world has some things called "martial arts secrets". People breathe in and out according to the above method, and circulate the spiritual energy between heaven and earth in the corresponding meridians and then use it for their own use, which is called internal force.
Of course, these methods of using and accumulating internal strength seemed too crude to Ji Cheng, but they were quite powerful to the people in this small world.
It was not easy to cultivate internal strength, so the martial arts world came into being.
People who practiced martial arts studied different secrets and had different purposes for cultivation, so gradually there were different sects, some claiming to be righteous, some being labeled as evil, or there were so-called famous sects, and some coming from wild ways. In short, all kinds of people were called Jianghu.
Ji Cheng's current body was named Ju Yicheng, the young master of Mingju Villa, which was known as the "No. 1 Manor in the World" in Jianghu, and he was also the current leader of the martial arts world; his mother was the eldest daughter of Fengshun Escort Agency, and his father was a wealthy man with high prestige in the martial arts world. He also made great efforts to help the righteous to eliminate the evil cult ten years ago.
With such an identity, it was no problem to call him the son of luck, and it even seemed that there was no need for him to be "saved" by Ji Cheng.
If we don't consider that although the original body has the title of martial arts leader, he is a playboy with no knowledge and no martial arts.
The ancestors of Mingju Villa passed down a top-notch "Mingyue Sword Skill". Several generations of villa owners have made a great name in the world with their superb swordsmanship, and also accumulated the reputation of "the best villa in the world". However, when it came to Ju Yushan's generation, although he had a good foundation, his dantian was destroyed in an accident more than ten years ago, and he could no longer practice martial arts.
Of course, Ju Yushan was not discouraged. Since he could not practice martial arts, he relied on the accumulation of his ancestors to do business. In just a few years, he made a huge fortune. With the martial arts background of his wife Bian Ruizhu as a support, Mingju Villa not only did not lose its reputation, but it went to a higher level.
Although Ju Yushan is upright and respectable, Ju Yicheng is not as good as his father. He has no ambition and loves pleasure. He has good roots but no will to practice martial arts. He squanders money by relying on his family background. Although he does not do evil things, if he continues like this, the ancestral business of Mingju Villa will definitely be lost in his hands.
What's more, Ju Yushan made a fortune by doing business. When he was alive, everyone was afraid of Ju Yushan's connections and dared not do anything. But what about a hundred years after he died?
A playboy guarding such a family business is no different from a child carrying gold in the market.
—— It was precisely based on this point that Ju Yushan thought about it and bought Ju Yicheng the title of Wulin leader.
Yes, the Wulin leader, the only shining point in Ju Yicheng's personality, was also bought by his father.
Thinking about it this way, it's not surprising why Ju Yushan was so anxious before.
Because some time ago, the righteous sects held a party, and while chatting, someone suggested: The Demon Sect has been eliminated for ten years, and now the world is peaceful and stable, and everyone doesn’t need to pretend to be friends anymore (crossed out). It’s time to hold a martial arts competition to see which hero can be worthy of the title of the leader of the righteous!
And this martial arts competition can not only be held once, but we can hold one every five or ten years!
It can avoid fighting and show the friendly spirit of the martial arts world, and it can also promote the tourism industry to drive local economic growth. Why not do it!
Of course, this is the reason, but when the news reached Ju Yushan’s ears, it was not the case-if this martial arts competition was really held, Ju Yicheng’s title of leader would not even have the surface!
