Chapter 1527: Chapter 478: Ten Years of Reform—Xue Zijing from the State, The Distinction Between Dragon and Python_2

However, to come back to this, uncle’s reform, at its core, is about taking from the Worldly Families to benefit the Landgrave, with the common people benefiting incidentally. In the short term, there is nothing but harm for those elite families, so they will definitely go crazy trying to obstruct it, preventing uncle from successfully implementing it in Yanling County.

As for the third reason, it’s this Frost Ash Association…”

Bai Qingqing paused after speaking, a look of disbelief rising in her eyes, then shook her head and continued, “I initially thought this Frost Ash Association was supported by Foreign Fief forces, but now it seems that even if there is foreign involvement, the base of this organization is still their own people from Chen Cang.

And the high probability is that it’s the Chen Family. Landgrave Chu should also be aware of this, but due to the Chen Family’s power and the fact that their previous actions weren’t excessive, he has always been hesitant to take action.

I just didn’t expect that in opposition to reform, they would go so far as to burn the Hundred Li Grain Field, causing losses of billions. This time, Landgrave Chu was so enraged that he decided to push down all the opposing voices and send uncle to Yanling to implement comprehensive reform…”

Speaking of this, Bai Qingqing paused again, shaking her head repeatedly, “But the more it is like this, the more divided the Chen Cang internally becomes. The Frost Ash Association’s willingness to do such things is equivalent to openly telling Landgrave Chu that reform is impossible. No matter how strong-willed Landgrave Chu is, how can he overcome so many people?”

“Internal chaos and opposition; the Landgrave is constrained up and down, isolated and weak; the conservative forces are deeply rooted and hard to shake; there is internal and external collusion, and the trouble-making Frost Ash Association is already formed; the total population of the Feudal Town is 22 million, nearly 60% are of Slave Status and lowly status, the upper class lives in luxury, while the lower class is impoverished. This Chen Cang seems strong, only slightly less than Wei Bo, but it has countless internal problems, like a boiler heating up wildly, with some ills being so deeply entrenched they’re beyond repair…”

This was essentially a test for the niece. If Bai Qingqing could see the problems, how could Xue Zijing not? He listed all the issues of Chen Cang without stopping, shaking his head incessantly.

“Then let’s go! Moao River has five vassals, uncle looks down on Lulong Prefecture, but wasn’t Wei Bo, the one cousin just mentioned, pretty good before in uncle’s eyes? At worst, just go to Wei Bo!”

“Wei Bo?”

Upon hearing this, Xue Zijing pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, “Though Wei Bo is strong, its location is too poor; disasters are common within the fiefdom, and the population is sparse. Besides, as I see it, Li Gangfeng is obsessed with immortality, focusing solely on cultivation, with ambitions not in the Four Vassals, making it difficult to achieve great things in the end. Moreover…”

At this point, he paused, the previous look of dejection on his face swept away, replaced by a confident expression, “The harder a task is to accomplish, the greater the reward upon success. Doing the impossible is what makes it precious!

The Human Clan struggling to survive in the Ice Abyss World is precisely for this reason. If one changes course at the sight of difficulties, backing away instead of moving forward, where would Moao River’s five vassals or the prosperity of my Great Xu Kingdom come from?”

Xue Zijing’s face was full of devotion and solemnity as he mentioned the Great Xu Kingdom, and his expression was mirrored by Xue Wuhen and Bai Qingqing, as well as three black-clad men around him.

“The more complex and difficult Chen Cang’s situation, the more we need to face the challenge. Among the five vassal Landgraves of Moao River, only Landgrave Chu possesses the qualities of a great leader. As long as he fully promotes the reform in Yanling and sees the results, increasing support and pushing it throughout the entire Feudal Town, I am confident that within thirty years, in a generation’s time, Chen Cang will undoubtedly rise to the top rank of the five vassals.
