Chapter 180 - Southern News

The sky had already darkened, but Wang Shu was still busy as usual!

After receiving the message from the palace, Wang Shu immediately headed towards the palace!

When Wang Shu finally arrived at the Imperial Palace, he had already calmed down and was no longer as furious as before! He had experienced so many things and his personality was already different from an ordinary youth. Right now, he just wanted to ask Wang Shu why he did this!

"His Majesty summoned me here late at night. What is the matter?" Wang Shu had already sat down and said.

"Today, I came to a village on private visits. I saw the officials of your Advocacy Division conducting public information work!" Zhao Chen said.

"Your majesty, our Advocacy Division is currently cooperating with the Rent reduction order to promote the results." Wang Shu said.

"What do I want you to advertise? Have you forgotten? " Zhao Chen suddenly said.

"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" Wang Shu was taken aback, and said: "How dare this humble subject forget what His Majesty has said? Our main goal is to publicize the glorious history of the Han and Tang Dynasties, so that the people will understand our past strength. In addition, Propaganda Girl is eyeing us covetously, there is the risk of our country exterminating us! "Also, to promote other policies, encourage the citizens to join the army and other matters!"

"But that is not what I see! What I see is that you are advertising some of my personal affairs, and you even distributed my portrait to the people, so that they can report it to you every day! "Ridiculous!" Zhao Chen shouted lightly.

"Your Majesty, there's no other way! "You heard about it in detail!" Wang Shu said.

Then, Wang Shu started to explain. After Wang Shu finished speaking, he was stunned!

He did not expect that the main reason why Wang Shu promoted "personal worship" was to raise Zhao Chen's prestige to the peak, so that he could then use Zhao Chen's name to carry out other ideas! This way, it would be much easier!

"I feel that there's something wrong with doing this! Although all the emperors of the past dynasties were called the 'Son of Heaven' or 'Son of Heaven' or 'God', no one had ever truly regarded the 'God' or 'God' before. No one was superstitious about the 'Emperor' to such an extent! In the future, the Emperor's prestige would be too high, and everything he said would be treated as truth. Even the Emperor himself would lose his way! If they had made the wrong decision and no one could cure them, it would be impossible for the ministers of the court to even persuade them otherwise. They had completely 'believed' that the emperor was right. They would not have any doubts! There was no need to mention the commoners! That would be the time of the great calamities of the world! " Zhao Chen said.

He remembered some of the later generations' history. A certain great leader had instigated a cult of the people, followed by a ten-year calamity, causing great chaos in the world! He was not willing for such a thing to happen in the Great Song Dynasty!

"This …" Wang Shu shook his head, and said: "The ideas that Your Majesty wants to advertise are all unimaginable, only by doing so can you push these ideas forward as fast as possible! Only in this way can we allow the citizens to join the army as soon as possible, and let us have enough troops to fight against the Valkyrie and the Emperor Kang! "

"Let me think about it!" Zhao Chen said.

He thought about it for a long time, not knowing if he should stop this or not! In fact, if he were to carry out his personal worship, his personal prestige would rapidly rise. In addition, with the military's authority, he could do whatever he wanted. He could carry out all of his own ideas! However, he was also afraid that he would be lost in power and unable to extricate himself from it!

"I experienced so many things, all those years ago when I escaped from the Nvzhen, and then from the Emperor Kang, I defeated Zhe Keqiu, and today, my actions are all for the sake of promoting my own thoughts, to shoulder my responsibilities, to prevent the Chinese people from walking down the old path in history, to not be oppressed by the other nations, to not end up like a country with its seeds destroyed, and to not end up locking the country from the future! Back then, when Li Gang left the Middle Han Area, I told him that his heart didn't change, and today I'm going to tell myself that my heart isn't! Even if Wang Shu promotes the worship of others, my heart will not change, I will not lose myself in it, I will still follow my original plan step by step! Sooner or later, I will put an end to these preposterous actions, put the Song Dynasty on the right track, and let the Chinese civilization far surpass all the civilizations of this era, and continue to flourish for ever! Now, let the individual worship continue! " Zhao Chen stood at the window and thought for a long time before he finally found an answer!

Not long after, Wang Shu bid farewell and left! Waiting until the second day, before the sky brightened, Wang Shu suddenly rushed to the palace!

Zhao Chen had just woken up and was dancing with his sword! All these years, he had never stopped practicing martial arts. Every day, he would meditate and dance with the sword in the morning! No accumulation of small steps, no thousand miles, no accumulation of small streams, no to become a river! Only by practicing diligently could he continue to improve!

This time, after experiencing many battles and seeing countless people die, Zhao Chen seemed to have a deeper understanding of the Grand Righteous Sword Style and the Dream Butterfly Sword Art. At this moment, as the sword qi danced in the air, until Wang Shu arrived, he finally stopped.

"What happened? You came this early? " Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, the news from Jiangnan has arrived!" Wang Shu said.

"Speak!" Zhao Chen was startled, and anxiously said.

Last winter, when the woman really went south, he had always been concerned about the news of Jiangnan. It was just that the distance between Middle Han Area and Jiangnan was too far, and the battle in Jiangnan would not come over anytime soon! The news must have come from a month ago!

Your Majesty, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Loushi and the rest have retreated! Zong Ze had two million soldiers under his command, Wanyan Zongwang, Wanyan Loushi and the others were constantly being attacked. In the end, they had no choice but to retreat! However, the real female Fourth Prince, Wan Yanwushu, had gone all the way south, he bypassed Henan and the other places all the way to Hangzhou! Conan's traitor didn't dare to fight with Nvzhen, and actually hid in the ocean! Wan Yanwushu wreaked havoc in the south of the river, and then, along the Yangtze River, Wan Yanwushu ran into him! Han Shizhong and Wan Yanwushu had a huge battle, he was not Wan Yanwushu's opponent, and was about to be defeated by Wan Yanwushu. After that, Liu Guangshi, Zhang Jun, Wang Yuan and the rest had led their great armies here respectively. Wan Yanwushu had led his troops out of Jiangnan province one month ago! " Wang Shu said.

"Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang actually escaped to the ocean!" Zhao Chen was slightly taken aback.

His understanding of the history of the Southern Song Dynasty was limited. He only knew a few famous people and some famous battles! However, what he did not know was that Zhao Gou had often "entered the sea" in the past. Every time the Jin Army attacked Jiangnan, Zhao Gou would choose to escape to the sea. One of the important reasons why Zhao Gou chose to stay in the capital of Hangzhou was because Hangzhou was very close to the ocean.

"Your majesty, Conan's traitor does not have the guts. The number of soldiers and horses in Jiangnan far surpasses our Middle Han Area, and Wan Yanwushu only has twenty thousand cavalry! Under these circumstances, he actually didn't dare to fight with the female expert, and could only flee to the sea! Although the Jin Army had retreated, the citizens of Jiangnan were already in an uproar! I really don't know if Emperor Kang has the face to continue stealing the throne! " Wang Shu said.

Wang Shu also never thought that the Kang Wang Zhao Zhuang would actually be this kind of person. Thinking about how he actually had plans to rely on the Emperor Kang, he felt extremely terrified at the moment!

"The Emperor Kang is in Jiangnan, it's really too far away from us! Let him continue being arrogant for a period of time! We should just follow the strategy that was previously set for us. We should first completely subdue the Guan Shan and then think about our next plan! Now that there were thirty-six allied armies in Shaanxi, if he could subdue these thirty-six allied armies, then Shaanxi could be considered as having fully recovered from them! I have already sent Zhao Zhe, Liu Qi and the rest to contact the thirty-six allied armies, but there is still no news of them! " Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, it won't be easy to subdue all of the thirty-six allied armies to us! When the time comes, we still need to use troops! " Wang Shu said.

"Of course! But during the war at the beginning of the year, all of our armies were killed or injured, and we have exhausted a lot of supplies and supplies. We will not use a large number of troops in the near future, we will first subdue some of the allied armies, and then, with the cooperation of these allied armies, we will subdue the Shaanxi! " Zhao Chen said.

"Your Majesty, we need to increase our speed. I am afraid that the Emperor Kang has other intentions!" Wang Shu said.

"Does Emperor Kang have other plans?" Zhao Chen was startled.

"Emperor Kang is best at scheming and scheming, good at being unreasonable. Back then, they wanted to rope us in, so I was worried that they would rope in those allied armies of the Shaanxi, which would pose a threat to us!" Wang Shu said.

"You're right, we have to be careful of these things!" Zhao Chen nodded and started to think!
