Seeing this, Lin Qian hurriedly helped Leng Wu Yi up and asked with some amusement, "What are you doing? What did you do wrong?"
"We always thought that Lin Emperor was the kind of person who oppressed the people and didn't treat them as human beings. It was only after my daughter described what happened to her in Little Ling City that we came to our senses. " Leng Wuyi couldn't help but think about how he suspected that Lin Qian was searching for their Life Hall and wanted to erase it. He felt even more ashamed.
Since Lin Qian had taken the initiative to look for them, he obviously knew where the Life Hall was. Leng Wuyi didn't even think about it.
After listening to Leng Wuyi, Lin Qian couldn't help but laugh. He waved his hand and said, "It's understandable. Once bitten, twice shy. I'm not surprised that you all have such concerns."
Then, Lin Qian said to the people in front of him, "You were able to cultivate to such a high level under the circumstances of a lack of resources. This proves that you all are extremely talented. You could have left Wei and Qiu to live your own lives in the outside world. But you stayed and fought for the people because you didn't forget where you came from. Such a spirit is rare. "
"That's why I respect all of you. I'm here to ask if you are willing to join the Hua Xia Empire and help me manage the seventeen states of Wei and Qiu?"
After Lin Qian said this, everyone was stunned. Leng Wuyi, Qiu Xian, and the rest looked at him in disbelief. They wondered if they had heard wrongly.
Joining the Hua Xia Empire was not the main point. Why would he ask them to help him manage Wei and Qiu?
Shouldn't Lin Qian be in control of these territories? Why would he not feel at ease leaving it to them?
Leng Wuyi pondered for a moment before he cupped his fists towards Lin Qian and said, "I believe that the people from the Hall of Life will be willing to join the Hua Xia Empire. However, in order to prevent rumors from spreading, Emperor Lin Qian should consider carefully."
Hearing Leng Wuyi's words, Lin Qian immediately understood what he meant. He laughed and said, "Your considerations are superfluous. You are not the only ones in charge of the original seventeen prefectures of the Wei Kingdom and the Qiu Kingdom. There will also be people from the original Hua Xia Empire. Moreover, I believe that all of you will never rebel. "
"Both of you used to be from the Wei Kingdom and the Qiu Kingdom. You will definitely be more familiar with this land. If you manage it, it will be more beneficial."
"As long as you choose to be loyal to me, it's fine!"
After speaking, Lin Qian quietly looked at everyone, waiting for their answer.
In fact, the fact that Leng Wuyi had asked this question showed their character. However, nothing was absolute. Lin Qian also needed a guarantee, and that was for them to be loyal to him.
This was because the Emperor's Domineering Talent from his previous life still existed and was effective in this world. Once these people from the Hall of Life chose to be loyal to him, their loyalty would never change.
Lin Qian's Emperor's Domineering Talent was much more useful than the Heart Demon Oath.
After the people from the Hall of Life looked at each other, they looked in the direction of Lin Qian. One by one, they got up and knelt down, taking the Heart Demon Oath to be loyal to him.
Their decisive action was beyond Lin Qian's expectations. He had thought that they would consider it carefully. After all, suddenly pledging their loyalty to someone was not something that could be done casually.
However, Lin Qian did not know that the attitude of the Hua Xia Empire towards the people was shocking to the people from the Hall of Life.
The events in Xiaoling City that Qiu Ling mentioned must have been a manifestation of Lin Qian's will!
From the various events in Xiaoling City, it could be seen what kind of person Lin Qian was. A leader of such a force was an existence that would only appear in their dreams.
The Hall of Life did not have the ambition to become a leader. Leng Wuyi, Qiu Xian, and the other Spirit Martial Artists who came from the people only wanted to let the people live a good life and not be ruled by darkness.
Now, they had finally met such an existence.
Lin Qian silently accepted the loyalty of the people from the Hall of Life. Then, he asked everyone to stand up. "Since you are now members of the Hua Xia Empire, I need you to get busy for the empire."
Hearing Lin Qian's words, everyone nodded, indicating that he could give them any orders.
"Now that the Hua Xia Empire has just taken over the territory here, there are many things to do. The things that the Wei Kingdom and the Qiu Kingdom plundered have been dealt with by the Ministry of Heavenly Works. The cities, towns, and villages are all handled by the Ministry of Fire Works. You only need to understand the Ministry of Heavenly Works and the Ministry of Fire Works. "
"Your next task is to integrate all the former members of the Hall of Life into the prefecture government. You will be responsible for the construction of the roads between the cities, towns, and villages. Let the people work with you. The empire will pay them for their labor. Let them work together to build the Hua Xia Empire. This way, they will have a sense of belonging to the Hua Xia Empire. "
"When the roads between the cities, towns, and villages are completed, clear the surrounding soul beasts, set up arrays, and arrange for the empire's army to patrol. Don't let the people go out. This is a troublesome task. This is the most important task."
Everyone was stunned by Lin Qian's words.
In the past, the Wei Kingdom and the Qiu Kingdom often recruited the people. Not only did they work hard, but they also had little food and poor housing. They worked for nothing.
They actually heard from Lin Qian that the people would be paid with soul crystals after they worked. They couldn't react in time and wondered if they were dreaming.
Among them, Leng Wuyi and Qiu Xian had the best composure. They calmed down immediately and understood the importance of the road construction that Lin Qian had mentioned!
In the past, every city, town, and village was like an isolated island to the people. The outside world was dangerous, and every step they took was a life-or-death situation.
After the roads were safe, the people would interact more with each other. It would be easy for the people to prosper.
"Let's settle this first before moving on to the next task." After Lin Qian finished speaking, he looked at everyone and said, "If you have any other suggestions, please let me know."
"Lin Emperor, what is a prefecture government?" Qiu Ling asked eagerly as soon as Lin Qian finished speaking.
"A prefecture government is in charge of the affairs of a prefecture. It is responsible for the development of the territory, the people's livelihood, and the cultivation and education of the people of the empire.
"The prefecture government has no right to interfere with the matters of the empire's army and the Beast Army. They are managed by the six army commanders and the two Beast Commanders. They only listen to my orders, including the Hua Xia Army that will be established in the future.
"If the Qin Dynasty, the Wei Kingdom, and the Qiu Kingdom bully the people in the future, they will be executed!" Lin Qian looked at everyone and said, "Including you!"
"The Hua Xia Empire must become the number one empire in the world. I will not allow any mistakes, including stains!"
