Chapter 91

With a thought, a dragon's roar, far more resonant and majestic than that of the young dragon horse, suddenly echoed through the sky.

Everyone looked up at the sky and saw a massive, dignified true dragon weaving through countless star-like light points. The awe-inspiring and sacred presence, akin to the will of heaven, made everyone feel a deep reverence from the bottom of their hearts. Even the survivors felt this way, let alone the Eastern people who revered dragons as their totem.

Facing this true dragon was like facing the entire world, making one feel insignificant.

There was even a sense that everything in the human world was under the control of this true dragon. This feeling came from nowhere, but everyone facing the true dragon felt that their fate, life, and future were all within the dragon's control.

This feeling was not baseless, as this true dragon was the manifestation of the dragon veins of the Chinese land and even the world.

Beings born in this world naturally had this feeling. Even though the survivors did not belong to this world, they now had the same feeling since they were in this world. The gap between them was too great, like comparing a speck of dust to a star. Even if the dust was not on the star, the vast difference still made one feel it.

Zhang Hao looked at the true dragon weaving through countless star-like light points in the sky, his heart full of awe. Although he had some understanding beforehand, the actual sight was absolutely different.

The true dragon circled in the air for a moment, then suddenly dove straight down, its massive body magically entering Zhang Hao's head. Zhang Hao's aura surged, the density of the aura rapidly increasing. After a short while, the aura around Zhang Hao was like flames surrounding him.

More amazingly, the color of the aura kept changing, from a clear blue, a deep black, to a sacred gold, and so on.

The aura was like flames! Zhang Hao, who was originally far from this realm, instantly entered it. The enhancement of his physical attributes, protective power, and endurance all saw a significant increase.

Taking a deep breath, the increasingly powerful feeling made Zhang Hao somewhat immersed. The refinement of his body and the enlightenment of his mind? Both seemed to describe this improvement. This was not something Zhang Hao deliberately arranged, but a benefit provided by the Time Gate.

From the current perspective, the Time Gate was unexpectedly obtained from a game. In that game, if a player not only changed the world's trajectory but also completely mastered the world, they would receive this benefit. In the game, it was an increase in attributes and levels, while in reality, it was an enhancement of Zhang Hao's talent and strength.

Undoubtedly, after occupying the thirteen states of the Han Dynasty, Zhang Hao had already mastered this world, even though there were still many lands and races beyond the thirteen states. However, this world was based on the Three Kingdoms and the land of China was the center of this world. Mastering this place was equivalent to mastering the world.

Zhang Hao could have used this benefit a few days ago, but the best time was clearly during the ceremony of sacrificing to heaven and proclaiming himself emperor.

In the game, similar situations had grand visual effects. From the Time Gate, he knew that in reality, there were similar visual effects.

To explain it in grand terms, it was mastering the world, being favored by the will of the world, being surrounded by the beliefs of all beings, and being embraced by the human dragon qi.

Understanding this, Zhang Hao naturally could not gloss over it. Today's scene was the most appropriate. Performing here would further solidify the ruling foundation of the Great Qian and strengthen his control over the world.

Looking at the expressions of the officials, civilians, and nobles below, a smile appeared on Zhang Hao's face. Clearly, his consecutive miraculous performances had thoroughly amazed everyone.

"Everyone, the Empress Nuwa and the gods have personally witnessed our restoration of the order of this world. In the future, we will rectify the chaos of all realms, and the gates of heaven will always be open to those who have made contributions. Let us encourage each other!"

Zhang Hao did not use a loudspeaker this time, but his voice spread to every corner.

After the benefits from the Time Gate, his strength had greatly increased, and using the aura to amplify his voice was simple.

"Long live the emperor!" Below, whether officials or civilians, whether soldiers or commoners, witnessing the various miracles, they had no doubt about the things Zhang Hao had described before, and now they were even more enthusiastic.

Heaven, free from illness and disaster, an unimaginably happy life, immortality, and even becoming a god and living forever. The various beautiful scenes of heaven described in Zhang Hao's Purple Star Scripture echoed in their minds, especially the emphasis on various benefits for those with contributions, which filled people with anticipation.

The doctrines compiled by Zhang Hao combined elements from countless famous religions. The descriptions were so vivid that even he was moved.

'Looks like I'm a qualified charlatan too.' Looking at the enthusiasm of the crowd, Zhang Hao thought.

Of course, he could not be considered an outstanding charlatan, as his conditions were too advantageous, whether in terms of the era or the Time Gate, which played a significant role in his charlatanism. Therefore, achieving such results was not surprising.

Undoubtedly, Zhang Hao had people shoot the entire scene with multiple high-definition cameras. These would eventually be used as promotional videos in various places, and even for conquering the world. This was excellent material.

The ceremony of sacrificing to heaven and the performance ended. The newly crowned Emperor Zhang Hao returned to the palace, and the New Year celebrations had just begun.

Zhang Hao, as usual, granted a general amnesty upon his ascension, but it was not a blind amnesty. Only those with minor offenses were released.

Additionally, every household received gifts from the government on the day of Zhang Hao's ascension and the New Year, including grain, meat, and tea and sugar. This was to win the hearts of the people and celebrate together.

In the evening, Luoyang and the capitals of various states and counties would set off fireworks as a celebration.

In short, this ascension cost Zhang Hao a great deal, with significant expenses.

Many emperors, after ascending the throne, would greatly expand their harem.

Zhang Hao was not that exaggerated, but many of the palace maids who previously belonged to the Liu family were married to unmarried soldiers.

This time, he took the opportunity to recruit some young women as palace maids. These maids could learn some knowledge in the palace, and after a few years, those not chosen by Emperor Zhang would be married off by the empress. This approach was more humane.

In addition to the maids, Zhang Hao announced that no more eunuchs would be recruited in the palace in the future. He always felt that eunuchs were too damaging to the body and mind. He preferred to use more maids in the palace and gradually phase out eunuchs.

As for concubines, Zhang Hao did take a few, but most were not immediately consummated. For example, Mi Zhen from the Mi family, Zhen Mi from the Zhen family, and Gan Qian from Xiaopei, who were all still young and needed a few years to grow.

In short, the newly crowned Emperor Zhang Hao was not overly indulgent.

After his ascension, Zhang Hao was busy for two days, with the New Year banquet and receiving envoys from other countries.

Envoys from neighboring barbarian tribes, whether subdued by force or intimidated, and even countries in Southeast Asia that had just established trade relations, all sent envoys to witness the ceremony. They had to show the grandeur of the empire and receive them.

Although Zhang Hao would never treat foreigners like a fool as previous dynasties did, showing some respect did not require additional costs.

Moreover, the envoys had personally witnessed the grand ascension ceremony, and the impact was significant. Zhang Hao planned to use them to spread his and the Great Qian's fame, laying the groundwork for future conquests.

Additionally, after his ascension, Zhang Hao naturally rewarded his meritorious subjects, so the New Year in the Three Kingdoms world was a busy time for him.

But after this busy period, thanks to the meticulously designed system, Zhang Hao's life as an emperor became very easy, while the ministers remained extremely busy but enjoyed their work. The Great Qian was like the rising sun, filling everyone with hope and motivation.
