Bicycles, solar flashlights and other things have quietly become popular in major cities. A rapidly changing era of explosion is slowly taking shape.
Although there were minor frictions between the north and the south, due to the presence of Dulan, there were no major battles. Moreover, a series of actions by Kou Zhong in the south caused violent shocks in the Central Plains.
Because Kou Zhong unlocked Chairman Mao's life and information about various political parties, he actually established a political party called the Public Opinion Party in his area. He served as the party chairman, and made Song Que the party's second-in-command.
, elected representatives from farmers, businessmen, and handicraftsmen and gave them the right to vote.
This shocked many people in the Central Plains, and they had never seen Kou Zhong's method before.
But soon opposition voices emerged. There was no emperor, and a group of idiots were allowed to control the election, and could even decide the alternation of power among the leaders of a country. That was a big deal, and it broke the rules of the ancestors.
When Li Shimin was in Guanzhong, he had been paying attention to the news in the south. He had to admit that Kou Zhong was bolder than him, and he dared to carry out drastic land reform to win the hearts and minds of the farmers. However, this move did not cause shock to the southern clans, because the first
One person who supported Kou Zhong was Song Que, who was the largest aristocratic family in Lingnan.
At this point, I must not mention that Song Que's consciousness was too high. After knowing Kou Zhong's brand new and incredible system, he just thought about it for one night and decided to spend all his wealth to support Kou Zhong.
Therefore, although there are still many voices opposing Kou Zhong, with Song Que on the battlefield, those in the south cannot make waves.
Of course, Kou Zhong, who had read the information, knew that he could not rely too much on Song Que. What was important was to master the gun and gain the support of the majority of farmers. In this way, his party would not become a parasitic tool for the aristocracy.
As for the voices of opposition, Kou Zhong also had his own way, which was to organize a propaganda team to go to villages and towns to carry out propaganda. Tell them that the emperor is unreliable, but this process will not go smoothly because the idea of a wise king saving all people from fire and water has been engraved in his mind.
It has been deeply rooted in the bones of many people, and coupled with the public's unwillingness to take responsibility, the propaganda team has achieved little success.
Kou Zhong is not in a hurry. He knows that this work may take several years or even decades to complete. The people's consciousness must be awakened through education and propaganda. If anyone still wants to be emperor by then, they will definitely die miserably.
The south has implemented earth-shaking reforms. The effects of the reforms are not yet significant, but one thing is certain, that is, everyone is looking at Kou Zhong and watching his series of dazzling moves.
Smart people have guessed that Kou Zhong, a man born in the city, would never come up with such a perfect new system. People can clearly understand the changes in political orders in the north and south through the newspapers printed by Pegasus College. They can also debate through Pegasus newspapers.
In the south, Kou Zhong has even personally written manuscripts to discuss his political views. He is slowly becoming a qualified ruler and spends his time practicing martial arts writing.
The northern scholars were Kou Zhong's main target of debate. As for Li Shimin, he never wrote anything. He was now like a leopard hiding in the grass, observing his surroundings.
Those foreigners who enjoy studying at Pegasus Academy also like to read newspapers, because in addition to these obscure political discussions, there are also many introductions to specialties from various places, which are helpful for them to do business. Of course, many of them have direct relations with the king.
The nobles who contacted me read these different arguments and studied eagerly. The Central Plains has been discussing the national governance system for more than a thousand years, and for one-third of that time it was a highly unified huge empire. Both the old and new political systems are
It is very novel. The most important thing is that this newspaper has a special foreign language version, which is very easy to read. It also has a lot of new things and is very interesting. It is a good thing.
The world is changing, and you can see it from a small newspaper. Therefore, the sales of newspapers have been rising. At the beginning, they were only supplied to the two major political systems within Pegasus College and the North and South. In reality, major cities across the country are
There is a huge demand. Even teachers in some villages read newspapers.
Such sales made the priest excited, and he began to write a short story about the Bible to spread the glory of God. The person who reviewed the newspaper manuscript was Qing Ya. When she saw the newspaper, she passed it easily because
Dulan gave clear instructions on freedom of belief. As long as the priest doesn't publish anything that subverts the Central Plains, what's the point of not publishing it?
Then a new battle point emerged. Many scholars did not have the opportunity to participate in national-level debates. But everyone is guilty. This does not run counter to Mencius’ theory of good nature. If it does not work, he must be criticized.
The priest was happy. He finally attracted everyone's attention, and he didn't need to argue in broken Chinese. He could just write it down and have someone translate it, which was really convenient.
For a time, two major battlefields appeared in the newspaper, and the debate continued. As time passed, the monks and Taoists couldn't bear it anymore, and they came to Pegasus Academy one after another to request submissions.
Statecraft has become less vocal, while religious and school debates have become louder.
Xu Ziling had been separated from Kou Zhong for more than a month. At this time, he took a newspaper to learn about his friend's current situation. There happened to be an article by Kou Zhong, "There is No Savior in the World".
"Young Master Zhong has really matured a lot." Although Kou Zhong always wanted to fight for hegemony in the past, it was just a battle of wills, but now he really wants to build a great country and serve the people. Xu Ziling has read several of Kou Zhong's articles.
Yes, it has changed a lot.
Just when Xu Ziling was happy for his brother, he suddenly heard the sound of a flute in the distance. He immediately recognized the sound of the flute played by Shi Qingxuan.
The beauty was there, so of course Xu Ziling had to go. Although it was just a quick glance, the beauty's figure was already imprinted in his mind, and he could not forget or throw it away.
The beauty was in Po Tao Temple, but outside the Taoist temple stood four great demons, Ding Jiuchong, Zhou Laotan, Jin Huanzhen, and You Niaojuan. They were all top masters in the world. Xu Ziling was shocked. This was nothing.
A good sign. Obviously their goal is to be a beautiful woman just like him, but Xu Ziling just wants to catch a glimpse of her beauty, but these four people are not that simple.
Xu Ziling hid in the bushes and quietly observed. The four people seemed to be discussing something, and they were not talking happily, and their faces were ugly. It was better to take a detour and enter the Po Tao Temple first to inform the beauty.
Thinking of this, Xu Ziling retreated quietly, then took a detour and sneaked to the side of the small Taoist temple, climbed through the window and entered the Taoist temple.
But before his feet landed on the ground and his eyes didn't see the beauty, he felt a huge force coming from above his head. He couldn't help being shocked, and instinctively resisted with luck. He slapped out a palm with only three layers of true energy, but it couldn't reach the enemy.
, Xu Ziling thought to himself that my life is at an end.
At this time, I heard the voice of the immortal, "Dingxing, stop." Then I heard, "Hey, you are not one of them."
Xu Ziling retracted his palm and looked up, only to see a strange black and white beast swaying innocently back to the edge of the blue skirt. Looking up again, he saw a stunning face, a beauty that he would never forget.
