Huddle together for warmth, unify the domain. Devour the weak, strengthen oneself. Big fish eat small fish, small fish eat shrimps. The weak are prey to the strong, survival of the fittest. This was the unchanging principle of heaven and earth. It had been a hundred years since the fusion of the Myriad Worlds. The original chaotic situation in the major domains had begun to end. The structure had begun to step into a new stage.
Domain after domain was unified. The weak could only submit, or even flee into the wilderness, while the strong ruled everything. Some domains were formed by a few powerful forces working together to control the power of the domain. To obtain all kinds of resources. To strengthen oneself.
All the forces were desperately developing and growing stronger.
To become stronger, to constantly become stronger.
This was what every force wanted to do the most.
It could be said that now, every domain had almost formed an independent structure. Anyone who wanted to interfere would be rejected and viewed with hostility. Imperceptibly, the difficulty of expansion was constantly increasing.
It was obviously impossible for them to easily invade the various domains like they did in the past.
It was said that many domains had already opened Domain Gates. Through the Domain Gates, one could quickly provide support and would no longer be isolated. The Domain Gates had already been discovered and developed. It was no longer difficult to travel between domains. However, the cost of opening the Domain Gates was not low. It was also not something that ordinary people could hope to have.
However, this already meant that the domains were no longer relatively independent, but even more intricate and complicated. If one touched a certain force in this domain, perhaps in the next moment, a large number of backers would appear, press you to the ground, and beat you up.
Between the heavens and earth, the major forces were inextricably linked with the Myriad Races of the Heavens.
In the past, when the domains were not connected, they could still be defeated one by one. Now that the domains were connected, they could support each other. Attacking a force might be facing a huge force of an entire race. Most of the time, it was like pulling one hair and affecting the whole body. The relationships were inextricably linked. The situation was much more complicated than before.
As the Immortal Court, Da Yi was now the focus of attention. He had to consider all aspects before doing anything.
Not to mention other things, when it came to external warfare and expansion, he could no longer act without a good reason.
The face of the Immortal Court had to be taken into consideration.
No one would like an Immortal Court without a bottom line.
A good reputation could bring endless benefits.
This was also the goal that Yi Tianxing had been deliberately managing. Now that he had advanced to the Immortal Court, he needed to carefully consider how to develop it. A good reputation would last for a long time. However, it was impossible for Da Yi not to expand. This was the problem that the officials needed to solve.
"That's right. According to the intelligence sent by the Calamity Hall, all the domains are becoming more and more stable. All the major forces are developing in peace. Chaos and wars are decreasing. If there are no disturbances, it will be very difficult for us, Da Yi, to make a move. It would be inappropriate to send troops without a good reason. "
Tong Huang nodded in affirmation.
The impact of Da Yi's ascension on the various worlds and empires was simply too intense. The pressure that came with it was simply too great. If they didn't grow stronger, they would die. This was something that everyone was afraid of.
"Your Majesty Immortal Emperor, this lowly subject thinks that there might be a way to break out of this situation."
Jia Xu stepped forward with a smile and said.
"Oh, please speak, Minister Jia."
Yi Tianxing nodded and asked.
For all these years, Jia Xu had never let him down. He was eager to hear what brilliant ideas Jia Xu had.
"Your Majesty, we, Da Yi, have a Noble Ranking. For the sake of our reputation, we, Da Yi, can't act recklessly. However, the other forces don't have such scruples. There are many empires in the human race. We can enfeoff the surrounding forces with titles of nobility. Those who submit to us, Da Yi, and enter Da Yi with a domain can be enfeoffed as a King. Those who enter Da Yi with half a domain can be enfeoffed as a Marquis. We can even enfeoff the domain as the fief of the Nobility. "
Jia Xu said with a faint smile.
He was going to enfeoff the land.
"That's not appropriate. We can enfeoff the nobility, but not the land. You should know that in history, the enfeoffment of feudal vassals often brings about a situation where one can't escape. For example, the Great Shang back then had eight hundred feudal vassals, but how many of them were truly loyal? The Great Zhou also had many feudal vassals. In the end, it also evolved into a dynasty. This is a lesson from the past. Giving too much power will only breed ambition that shouldn't be there. Once this example is set, people's hearts will definitely waver. "
Su Shi's expression changed as he hurriedly tried to persuade him.
There were too many examples like this.
It was okay to let go of power, but giving too much power would be a disaster instead of a blessing. Most importantly, it would cause great trouble for the future rule.
"Hmm, that's right. Conferring nobility or even enfeoffing as a King is not a problem. Conferring nobility but not land is the principle. If we confer nobility and land, doesn't that mean that there is a possibility that one can't escape in the future? It will ultimately be a huge hidden danger. "
Huang Chengyan also said.
"Your Majesty, I think conferring nobility and land is not a bad idea. If you want a horse to run, how can you not feed it? That kind of thinking is not realistic. After all, if the other party wanted to submit, they would have to submit along with the entire domain. We don't need to expend manpower or resources, and we don't need to send troops or horses, and we can easily take over a domain. Conferring nobility is naturally not enough. I think that we can turn the land into a fief. We can give them a portion of the taxes of a domain as a fief. Not only can we prevent them from interfering in internal affairs, but we can also give them corresponding benefits to show Da Yi's sincerity. "
Liu Bowen smiled faintly.
If there was a force that was willing to give an entire domain to Dayi, just the title of nobility would not be enough. If it was a fief, there would be hidden dangers in the future. If it was possible, it would be better not to do it. This was not an easy thing to do.
Changing it to a fief was also a different kind of flexibility.
They did not need to govern the domain. They only needed to sit there and they could receive a large amount of food as a tribute. This method was enough to show Da Yi's sincerity.
One had to know that each of Da Yi's domains generated a vast amount of taxes each year.
Naturally, they could not completely make it into a fief, only a portion would be given.
"Yes, conferring nobility and fief. This is feasible. As for the fief, it will be given ten percent of the total taxes of the domain. Also, there must be a time limit. The duration of the fief is limited to a hundred years. Within a hundred years, you can get ten percent. After a hundred years, the fief will no longer exist, and it will be returned to the country. "
Yi Tianxing made his decision after a moment of thought.
To the outside world, the title of nobility in Da Yi was definitely full of temptation. After all, the title of nobility in Da Yi was even more shocking and powerful than the karmic rank and providence that the rulers of dynasties received. They could also hug the golden thigh of Da Yi's Celestial Court. Not all rulers of dynasties had the confidence to go further. Most of the time, founding a dynasty was just a moment of passion. Only after experiencing it personally would one realize that one's talent could not support them to continue on.
Under such circumstances, if Da Yi extended an olive branch, there would definitely be many factions that would be moved.
No matter how many or how few, as long as one of them did so, Da Yi would benefit. Not only would its reputation not be tarnished, but it would also obtain a brand new domain. All it had to do was to give up some nobility and fief. These were not worth mentioning at all.
Some superficial wealth in exchange for the foundation of eternity.
Of course, the two could not be compared.
There was not much that Da Yi could do now. This method had a very high chance of success.
"Your Majesty, this humble subject believes that not only can we use the title of nobility to attract like-minded people, we can also open the door of convenience. The Immortal Academy can start recruiting students from all the major domains in the Eternal World. We can attract more geniuses to come to Da Yi to study. Not only can we strengthen the Human Race, but we can also spread the influence of Da Yi even further. We must let the geniuses of other domains feel proud to be able to enter Da Yi. With a subtle influence, there might be unexpected gains. "
Jia Xu said once more.
In this world, it was always about scarcity but not equality. As long as the various differences were exposed, they would naturally win over the hearts of the people. Under the general trend. Everything would fall into place.
Many times, when the external strategy had to be changed, infiltration would be the main focus.
Everything had to be placed above righteousness.
"Then how should we deal with the domains that are occupied by foreign races?"
Yi Tianxing nodded and asked once more.
It was not good for Da Yi to personally deal with the Human Race Dynasty. As for domains dominated by foreign races, they needed to come up with a plan. After all, they couldn't just ignore it.
"As for the foreign races that dare to provoke our Da Yi Celestial Dynasty, there is naturally no need to be polite. We can just send an army to attack them. As for those foreign races that haven't provoked us, this humble subject thinks that we should let some people with special talents go over to stir up trouble. At that time, we will have an excuse to start a war. For example. Chen Sheng, Wu Guang, Li Zicheng, Fang La and the others are pretty good. We can let them display their talents. "
Jia Xu said with a smile.
There was a hint of a strange look in his eyes.
When the officials in the main hall heard this, they were also puzzled.
In fact, Chen Sheng, Wu Guang and the others had long been in the sight of Da Yi. They had even, in secret, reached some agreements and tacit understanding with Da Yi.
At this moment, the officials were very clear about their identity and background.
To be honest, every time they saw these people, the officials in the main hall wanted to hack them to death. They were the source of the turmoil. But now, they could be put to use, and they could be the pioneers.
Then, a heated discussion about these issues began in the main hall.
New national policies were constantly being formulated.
All kinds of external strategies were being rapidly perfected.
Da Yi would never just stick to the defense and lose the heart to forge ahead.
"Your Majesty, according to the news that Six Fan School has found, in the major domains within Da Yi's territory, there are special situations where Demon Qi is breeding."
Zhuge Zhengwo stood up and said.
