Richest Man: Divine-Grade Reconstruct System Chapter 1145 - 1084: Purging the Remaining Evil

But at this, Lin Yi was also very satisfied. After all, this way, not only could he expand his own army, but more importantly, it spared him the review process, which was what had always been unbearably long.

Proving whether a person could be used was an extremely troublesome matter; not only did you have to investigate him to the bottom, you also had to dig into several generations of his family to see whether there existed any possibility of restoring Dayou and reviving Zhao.

If such a possibility really existed, it had to be suppressed as quickly as possible.

Leaving a hidden danger for himself was absolutely unnecessary.

Because if he really left such a hidden danger behind, it would likely have enormous adverse effects on future development.

Who knew whether this guy would suddenly pop up somewhere and launch a destructive attack?

At that time, although it would not have much impact on him, for the common people below, there would be a constant security hazard, and this was something Lin Yi did not wish to see.

Of course, this was also unavoidable. After all, even in the 21st century it was hard to prevent such things from happening, let alone in a feudal ancient society.

And now the only thing that could be done was to reduce this kind of risk to the minimum.

Making it almost impossible would be even more perfect.

There was one thing Lin Yi could guarantee, and that was that after he took over this place, he would definitely let the people here live more prosperous lives and would certainly not let them continue living in the depths of misery as before.

Of course, as for why Lin Yi had so quickly attacked and taken Great Zhao Country into his own hands, this was not only because the other side wanted to attack You Country; that was merely a fuse.

In fact, the real reason was something Lin Yi had not told anyone.

It was that he wanted to use Zhao Country to check You Country, and use You Country to threaten Zhao Country.

After all, after he had taken over You Country, he had not yet replaced any of the officials there, and those old officials would naturally band together to deal with him.

But now it was different. If he also took Zhao Country, they would develop a sense of crisis—would they be replaced by officials from Zhao Country because they failed to do well?

The reverse was also true. By the same logic, the officials of Zhao Country would also fear being replaced by those officials from You Country. In this way, officials on both sides would have scruples, and this was exactly the effect Lin Yi most wanted to achieve.

This way, the entire officialdom could quickly be brought into balance, giving him an opening and allowing him breathing space to cultivate his true strength.

Otherwise, there really was no other way; this was a last resort.

And in order to achieve this goal, next he would also carry out mutual transfers of officials, that is, exchanging the posts of officials from the two former countries, sending them to serve in different places, thus putting better pressure on them.

Otherwise, if they were allowed to stay in their comfort zones for too long, they would forget their original hardships, and they would no longer be able to endure those original hardships.

After conquering Great Zhao Country, Lin Yi walked along the main street of Zhao Country, looking at the empty streets and the tightly shut doors of the houses on both sides. Lin Yi knew that at this moment the commoners were all cowering at home in fear, not daring to come out.

But he did not concern himself with that, because commoners were the most timid.

They could not possibly come out just because of a word or two from him; only when they truly felt safe would they come out again.

He led his men directly into the great hall, where two long rows of civil and Military Officers were already kneeling.

At this moment they all had their heads lowered, silently waiting for something.

Of course, once Lin Yi arrived, he naturally knew that they were waiting for him.

And after hearing the sound of footsteps, these people bowed their heads even lower.

At this time, Lin Yi also lifted his feet and walked between their ranks, going straight to the highest seat.

His gaze swept over everyone present. Then, in a cold voice, he told them all to stand up:

"Rise, all of you. As for who I am, I trust everyone is already clear, isn’t that so?"

After hearing Lin Yi’s voice, these people finally rose to their feet in a rustle.

Only, when they heard Lin Yi ask who he was, some showed a confused expression, while others showed a look of sudden understanding.

This made it clear that some among them knew Lin Yi, while others did not.

Seeing this, Lin Yi casually pointed at a purple-robed official standing at the very front.

"Very good, it seems there are still people who don’t know who I am. You introduce yourself first, then introduce me to them."

Although Lin Yi’s voice was not loud, it was full of pressure. The purple-robed official who had been pointed out trembled all over, then hurriedly bowed to Lin Yi:

"This subject obeys. This subject is Liu Yun, the Left Chancellor of Zhao Country."

After answering Lin Yi, he turned around to face all his fellow countrymen present, suddenly straightened his back, and with an air of arrogance began to introduce Lin Yi on the dais:

"Everyone, this is the current Emperor of Dayou and Great Zhao Country.

At the same time, he is also an Immortal!

He possesses methods inscrutable to gods and ghosts!
