Joy of Life: I am a Han Dynasty succubus, and I rebel from the beginning

Liu Hong took Zhan Doudou to stroll around the entire Shangjing City.

The sound of hawking can be heard everywhere, the crowds are bustling, and all kinds of shops are open everywhere like flowers scattered from heaven.

A smug smile appeared on Zhan Doudou's face.

The Shangjing City alone can be considered half of the Dongyi City, let alone the entire Northern Qi Kingdom.

Her dowry can be said to be the most generous dowry in the world.

Liu Hong could not deny that, looking at the prosperous Shangjing City, he always felt something was wrong, as if it was too rigid and mechanical.

A beggar happened to pass by, and Liu Hong took out a few pieces of silver from his pocket and put them in the beggar's bowl.

The beggar, who was ragged and smelled foul, had no time to show joy on his face.

A young Tianyi Taoist held out his hand and handed over a few copper coins, then took out the silver coins.

"Sir, you are only making his life shorter for a while, but you can't really change his current situation."

The believer showed a gentle smile on his face and bowed to Liu Hong.

Liu Hong weighed the change in his hand, raised his head and looked at this Tianyi Taoist, and felt a little interested.

"Oh? Do you have any opinion?"

The poor beggars, upon seeing the believer, continued to pay homage to him.

It was as if I saw a god.

The believer's voice was like a spring breeze, and he smiled and shook his head.

"Sir, he was born poor and destined to suffer a lot. Why let him have so much wealth? His virtue is not worthy of his position."

When Zhan Doudou saw this Tianyi Taoist, his heart was shocked.

Oh no! The Emperor Gao saw the Tianyi Taoists with his own eyes. What on earth did Haitang Duoduo and the others do?

Aren't they supposed to restrain believers?

As expected, when Liu Hong heard this, he looked a little unhappy.

"You mean to say that because he is poor and destined to live in poverty all his life, there is no need to let him enjoy wealth and luxury, right?"

The believers nodded, thinking that this statement was natural.

"It's natural. He is poor in this life because he committed many evil deeds in his previous life. This is his calamity, so he is poor and destitute. He wants to wash away his sins."

"After this life is over and his sins are washed away, he will naturally be able to enjoy wealth and glory in his next life."

"This is his fate. Why do you have to interfere and stir up trouble, causing him to suffer more in the future?"

Listen to these righteous words.

Liu Hong was so angry that he laughed. Doesn’t that mean he was wrong?
If he had thought the same when he was a pirate, he would have been destined to be a gangster all his life.

If you don't strive for anything and just rely on your afterlife, will you be bullied by others?
Liu Hong just glanced at the beggar and then looked at the believer.

Both of them looked as if it was a matter of course.

The beggar was still frightened and couldn't help but take a few steps back when he saw the change in Liu Hong's hand.

This silver was like a flood and a beast, making it impossible for him to be born into a good family.

The smiles on the believers' faces became even more intense, thinking that they had done another good thing.

He took out a manual and handed it to Liu Hong.

A glimmer of divinity appeared on the faces of the believers.

"Sir, you may be new to Northern Qi and do business there, so you may not understand our customs and practices here."

Liu Hong took the manual, flipped through it casually, and threw it into the believer's arms.

The manual is full of records of the real stories of those who have suffered, praising them for accepting their suffering and commending them for the rewards they will receive in the next life.

Liu Hong really didn't know how to describe this thought.
It was shocking. No wonder Liu Hong always felt something was wrong.

The entire Northern Qi Dynasty exuded a sense of death.

If singing the praises of suffering is the right choice, then where are those who work hard, strive to climb up, and achieve class transition?
Are you saying that they are extremely rebellious?

Liu Hong held Zhan Doudou's hand and looked at the Tianyi Taoist with a cold expression.

"You, Tianyi Sect, should be very popular among those aristocratic families, right?"

The believers didn't understand what Liu Hong meant, but they still smiled and nodded.

He spoke with confidence.

"Master Ku He is God's agent. As the propagators of his ideas, we will naturally be loved by the world."

The poor believers now don’t understand why he is so popular among the noble families.

It is completely their way of doing things. They are wearing out the people's will to resist and using them like cattle and horses.

After this interruption, Liu Hong basically had no mood to visit the capital city again.

Taking Zhan Doudou, he walked towards the palace.

Liu Hong had a cold expression, revealing a kind of hostility in his bones.

"The philosophy of Tianyi Dao is too horrible! If Tianyi Dao cannot change, I will completely destroy it."

"Even if we have to kill all the believers, we will do it at all costs."

Zhan Doudou felt a chill on her back when she heard Liu Hong's murderous words, and asked softly.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with this? Tianyi Dao can make the world stable, with rulers ruling and subjects serving, fathers being fathers and sons being sons, from generation to generation, and it will never change."

"You should understand that if you continue to regard Tianyi as the state religion, relying on your great master's power of deterrence, the Tianyi philosophy will be deeply rooted in the hearts of the people."

"It is possible to realize a unified dynasty that will last forever!"

Indeed! The Tianyi philosophy almost makes people lose the will to resist.

Be content to accept the status quo, and even when faced with injustice in the world, endure it silently until you die.

No ruler thinks there is anything wrong with it, and some even regard the Tianyi Dao philosophy as their guiding principle and want to spread it throughout the world.

As for the wealthy and powerful families below, the officials will also think that this is too reasonable and exploit the people even more.

Because they are helping the people! They are letting them endure the suffering as quickly as possible so that they can be reincarnated.

At the palace gate, the imperial guards saw Liu Hong and Zhan Doudou coming back and immediately knelt on the ground.

Haitang Duoduo, Langtao, Gousheng, Yang Du and others also came forward.

However, Liu Hong stopped and stared at the sky, as if he could see every corner of the world.

Zhan Doudou was still reluctant to leave Tianyidao and couldn't help but speak up to dissuade him again.

"Your Majesty! Wouldn't it be good if your descendants could sit on the throne forever?"

"As long as you don't attack Tianyi, you should know the philosophy of Tianyi. It is a tool to defend the imperial power."

Liu Hong closed his eyes, and the aura began to become unfathomable.

Haitang Duoduo pointed at the sky and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Look up at the sky."

The legendary image of the sky falling from the sky has become a reality.

The white clouds in the sky seemed to have spirituality, constantly condensing into a pair of tightly closed eyes.

Then the clouds trembled, their eyes opened, and they looked at the people of the world expressionlessly.

The people of Northern Qi and the followers of Tianyi Taoism kowtowed and knelt in worship as if they had seen a miracle.

The beggar's eyes suddenly filled with tears and he muttered to himself.

"A miracle has occurred. As long as I survive this life, I will become a descendant of a noble family and live a life of wealth and honor."

The Eye of Heaven soon turned its gaze to a more distant place, across time and space.

The Qing Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River was preparing for war, and countless skinny and sallow people looked at this eye blankly, with a heavy air of death on them.

The grand occasion of Fan Xian's wedding was still vivid in his mind, with the noble families drinking and chatting happily, reciting poems and composing essays. Several soldiers of the city defense army dragged the bodies of little boys and girls and threw them into the mass grave outside the city.

Because they were orphans, they couldn't even afford to buy a steamed bun. Even the price of a steamed bun had risen to fifty cents.

Fan Xian's reward was only four or five copper coins, which gave them hope of survival but not the ability to survive.

Liu Hong looked at all this and felt increasingly heavy in his heart.

This is the soil in which Tianyi Dao survives. The aristocratic families and many powerful classes all want to eliminate the rebellious spirit of the lower classes.

In the entire world concept, Liu Hong relied on the anchor established by the Han Dynasty's reforms, which was like a small boat in a storm, swaying unsteadily.

Countless murmurings were heard.

"Why bother! Even if the King of Han doesn't change his ways, you are already the greatest Grandmaster in the world. Isn't that enough?"

The Grand Master realm is between 10% and 70%, fluctuating up and down.

Liu Hong encountered the same dilemma as Si Gu Jian.

But Si Gu Jian doesn’t want to change.

Now the entire power class in the world is asking Liu Hong not to make changes.

As long as Liu Hong nodded, the Han Dynasty would most likely be like Asan, with his descendants sitting on the throne forever.

Unless there was an invasion by foreign enemies, the emperor of the Han Dynasty would always be in the supreme position no matter how intense the conflicts were.

Do you accept this arrangement?

Do you accept such development?

Do you accept such an ending?
Beads of sweat appeared on Liu Hong's forehead.

The Eye of God in the sky became a little unstable.

Liu Hong guessed wrong. Ku He’s backup plan would never be the Tianyi Dao Qi of the entire lake, but the magic that was always underestimated by warriors.

After absorbing Ku He's power, the spirit of the spell's contract entangled Liu Hong.

As long as Liu Hong breaks his promise, he will reform Northern Qi and attack Tianyi Dao.

In the worst case, the patient will fall from the Grand Master realm.

Because Liu Hong's path to becoming a sage inside and a king outside is to rely on the people's hearts to improve his realm.

Zhan Doudou noticed that something was wrong with Liu Hong and frowned slightly.

Gousheng and Yang Du suddenly drew their swords and stood guard behind Liu Hong.

Liu Hongqiang suppressed the power of Ku He's contract and spoke in a cold voice.

"If you're dead, then you're dead. Don't make trouble after you die!"

"This era is no longer your era."

The Eye of Heaven looked towards Danzhou again. The new Danzhou city accommodated many businessmen.

These merchants did business in Danzhou, and their children also went to school in Danzhou.

A white-haired old teacher wrote the character "人" (person) on the graphite blackboard.

He smiled kindly at the teenage children below.

"This word is the character for person. Do you know what it means?"

The power of Ku He's contract spell seemed to be revived and recovered silently.

Liu Hong's expression also returned to normal.

The questions and answers in the school determined whether Liu Hong’s reform would stop here or go further.

This is a moment to test the results of Han's reform ideas.

Zhan Doudou couldn't help but worry about Liu Hong and spoke with some concern.

"Your Majesty, are you okay?"

Now the Zhan family and Liu Hong are tied together. If anything happens, Zhan Doudou, who is pregnant with Liu Hong's child, will not be able to escape.

Liu Hong waved his hand and snorted.

"It's okay. Even if Ku He died, he would still be worried about the Northern Qi that he was thinking about so much!"

Zhan Doudou didn't understand what Liu Hong meant.

Liu Hong just looked at the new Danzhou city through the eyes in the sky.

In the classroom, the old teacher picked a student at random.

"Tell me, what is a human being?"

The student looked around timidly and spoke in a low voice.

"Grandma said that only the landlords are worthy of being human beings, and we are just cattle and horses. But I think we are worse than cattle and horses. After all, we are sick and can only rely on ourselves to get through it."

“The cattle and horses were sick, and those landowners were very nervous.”

The old man was silent for a while and then spoke slowly.

"If that's the case, then why do you still come to school?"

A schoolboy with a gangster-like face suddenly stood up and clenched his fists.

"Because we don't want to be cattle and horses, we want to be human beings. After learning to read, we can become soldiers and clerks."

"If the landlords still dared to treat us like cattle and horses, we would have smashed their pots and pans and sent them to the guillotine."

Many schoolchildren applauded, with gunpowder flashing in their eyes.

The cold and merciless eyes of God in the sky smiled a little more, and then disappeared.

Liu Hong seemed to be brushing off the dust, but his body made a crackling, crisp sound.

The contractual spirit of Ku He's magic disappeared without a trace under the assimilation of the inner sage and outer king's true energy, without even a ripple.

Because Liu Hong's Grandmaster realm is stronger than Ku He's, and the anchor of Han's reform is more stable than ever before.
"Let's go! Go back to the palace. My decision will not change."

"If Tianyi Dao doesn't make any changes, then I will have no choice but to destroy the entire Tianyi Dao. If there are 100,000 Tianyi Daoists, then I will kill all of them."

Liu Hong looked at everyone with a smile on his face and a stern tone.

So what if all the aristocratic families recognize Tianyi Dao?

This is just a tool! Could it be that Cheng Tianyi Dao really dares to fight against Liu Hong?

Even if it was beneficial to the imperial power, Liu Hong would not choose Tianyi Dao.

Because this is completely different from the path Liu Hong has always taken.

Begonia blossomed, and Langtao's face changed drastically.

Zhan Doudou still wanted to dissuade them.

Liu Hong waved his hand to stop Zhan Doudou from speaking, his tone extremely firm.

"If we rely on keeping the people ignorant to maintain stability, then what is the point of establishing this dynasty?"

"The greatest wealth I bring to this world is the common people. If opportunities and hard work coexist, it is really possible to transcend one's own class."

Lang Tao suppressed his anger and looked a little threatening.

"Your Majesty, do you want to see your descendants being dragged off the throne by a mob one day?"

Liu Hong stared at Langtao.

Lang Tao couldn't help but take a step back and quickly lowered his head, regretting that he had gotten carried away and spoke out what was in his heart.

Liu Hong spoke softly.

"If their descendants strive for success and treat the people well, how can they be overthrown? Even if the throne is usurped, they will be able to sit firmly on the throne with the help of the rebels."

"If they don't live up to expectations, it will prove that the Han Dynasty is already corrupt and it's time to establish a new dynasty." (End of this chapter)
