Chapter 535: Reporting
"I truly did not expect that the Great Han Empire would come from another world."
"I did not expect that His Majesty would be an Immortal God descended. Long live His Majesty! Long live the Great Han!"
"Long live His Majesty! Long live the Great Han!"
This visual and spiritual impact was too huge for these ordinary common people.
At this moment, whether they were Song people who had already defected to the Great Han or those who were still watching, they were all filled with awe toward Liu Bian and the Great Han.
And for those who had long defected to the Great Han, that sense of pride and belonging became even stronger.
"Your Majesty, please enter the city with this subordinate!"
After stationing the great army outside the city, Lü Bu stepped forward and said respectfully to Liu Bian.
"Hmm."
Liu Bian raised his eyes and responded softly to Lü Bu.
Subsequently, a dragon carriage driven by nine fine horses arrived before him.
Liu Bian took a step, and his body arrived on the dragon carriage.
The nine fine horses immediately stepped out with vigorous strides and drove toward Lin'an City.
Very quickly, the group arrived at the former Song Kingdom Imperial Palace.
From now on, this would serve as Liu Bian's temporary palace in the Shen Diao world.
"We pay respects to Your Majesty! Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live!"
In the Imperial Palace Grand Hall, a group of civil and martial officials bowed respectfully in unison to Liu Bian.
"Beloved subjects, rise!"
Liu Bian was full of majesty as he waved his hand at the crowd.
"We thank Your Majesty!"
After the group stood up, they stood in two rows of civil and martial officials, looking at Liu Bian on the dragon throne with awe.
However, at this time, there were clearly many more martial generals in the hall than civil officials.
"Fengxiao, you first tell me in detail about the current situation."
Liu Bian said with authority to Guo Jia in the row of civil officials.
"This subordinate obeys the decree!"
"Your Majesty, since our army descended upon this world, twenty days have passed."
"With the help of General Lü Wende, Tribute Li Mochou, and the 150,000-strong Xiangyang Army that Your Majesty left for us, our Great Han Empire has successfully destroyed the Song Kingdom."
"Now, all the cities of the Song Kingdom, except for Jingjiang Prefecture and Jianning Prefecture in the south which have not been recovered, have all surrendered to our Great Han."
"And according to this subordinate's speculation, the cities in these two prefectures should also surrender to our Great Han; currently, it is just because the two prefectures are too far from Lin'an that news transmission is late."
"And our army, apart from the 150,000 Xiangyang Army having a thousand lightly wounded, has not had a single death."
"The 100,000-strong Divine Martial Legion has not had a single person injured."
"Nowadays, our Great Han can be said to have already controlled 90% of the original Song Kingdom's territory."
"Song Emperor Zhao Yun and a group of civil and martial officials have all been captured alive by General Lü."
"The Song Kingdom's original martial generals such as Wen Tianxiang, Zhang Shijie, and Lu Xiufu have defected to our Great Han because they could not bear the suppression by Zhao Yun and treacherous prime ministers Jia Sidao and Ding Daquan."
"As for the Jianghu people of the Song Kingdom, we have not yet seen them resist."
"One of the Five Absolutes, Hong Qi, has even joined our Great Han Empire with his disciples, the couple Guo Jing and Huang Rong."
"As for our Great Han's current cities, the government affairs of the major cities have not yet been sorted out, and the farmland for the common people has only been distributed in cities like Xiangyang, Ezhou, Anqing Prefecture, and Jiankang Prefecture."
"Even in Lin'an City, only half of the common people have been distributed farmland."
"However, now that Your Majesty has brought Wenruo, these matters finally have someone to handle!"
Speaking to the end, Guo Jia clearly let out a long sigh of relief, and his whole person was much more relaxed.
Heaven knows what kind of days he had been living through during this period.
Every day there were piles of things waiting for him to handle.
The most critical thing was that he did not have anyone to share the burden.
Now, with Xun Yu's arrival, his dark days were finally coming to an end.
At this time, Liu Bian, seeing Guo Jia's expression, was also somewhat amused.
During this period, asking Guo Jia to handle these government affairs had indeed been hard on him.
This guy had never handled government affairs when he was in the Main Realm.
He had not expected that this time, coming to the Shen Diao world, all government affairs would be handled by him alone.
However, these things did not stump Guo Jia; he simply did not like doing these things.
"Hahaha, Fengxiao has worked hard during this period. From now on, let Wenruo and Wenhe handle these things."
Liu Bian looked at the bitter-faced Guo Jia and could not help but laugh.
"This subordinate thanks Your Majesty!"
Guo Jia was overjoyed upon hearing this.
Subsequently, Liu Bian said to Xun Yu and Jia Xu:
"Wenruo, Wenhe, from now on, the government affairs of the Great Han in this world will be handled by you two."
"All policies must be the same as those in the Great Han Main Realm. They are all subjects of our Great Han and must not be treated differently."
Xun Yu and Jia Xu, upon hearing this, immediately responded respectfully to Liu Bian:
"This subordinate obeys the decree. Please rest assured, Your Majesty; we two will certainly not fail Your Majesty's trust!"
Seeing this, Liu Bian nodded with satisfaction.
"I am very reassured by the two of you handling things!"
"This subordinate thanks Your Majesty for the trust!"
Subsequently, Liu Bian said to Guo Jia again:
"Fengxiao, as for the southern Jingjiang Prefecture and Jianning Prefecture, I will give you ten days. If they do not surrender to the Great Han, then send the great army to go there."
"Please rest assured, Your Majesty; this subordinate has already dispatched personnel to these two places."
Guo Jia said to Liu Bian immediately upon hearing this.
"That is very good!"
"As for the Jianghu forces of the Song Kingdom, let the Hall of Worship handle them."
"Tribute Li, this matter is handed to you to handle. Everyone in the Hall of Worship is handed to you to command."
"Also, I confer upon Hong Qi and Guo Jing the title of Fourth-Rank Tribute of the Great Han Empire's Hall of Worship, enjoying the blessing of the Great Han's Fourth-Rank National Fortune."
Following Liu Bian's voice, the National Fortune Golden Dragon manifested.
"Ang!"
Subsequently, three strands of National Fortune power descended toward Li Mochou, Hong Qi, and Guo Jing.
This shocking scene, before the three could even react, made them feel a huge amount of spiritual power merging into their bodies.
The three could not care about anything else and immediately began to circulate their cultivation to refine it.
Before long, following the refinement of the National Fortune power, the strength of all three broke through by one layer of heaven.
Li Mochou and Guo Jing both broke through to the Innate Third Heaven.
Even Hong Qi broke through by one layer of heaven, and his strength reached the Innate Fifth Heaven.
With such strength, among the Great Han's martial generals, it was estimated that only Lü Bu could fight him.
"We thank Your Majesty!"
After the breakthrough, the three immediately bowed respectfully to thank Liu Bian.
At this time, Hong Qi and Guo Jing's hearts were even more incomparably fortunate.
Such methods were simply unfathomable.
The manifestation of the National Fortune Golden Dragon shocked the people of the Shen Diao world.
They were once again shocked by the Great Han's power and Liu Bian's power and mystery.
"As for Huang Rong, when you break through to the Innate Realm, I will confer upon you the title of Tribute of the Hall of Worship."
"The Hall of Worship of our Great Han Empire only allows those whose strength reaches the Innate Realm to become the lowest Fourth-Rank Tribute." ===== CHAPTER 536 =====
