The Sims: The Emperor Raising Project

Chapter 14 Flawed

A court turmoil caused by the dismissal of the prime minister was finally eliminated invisible by Liu Bian, who became more and more mature in political skills.

Since Liu Bian ascended the throne, his performance has almost been unanimously affirmed by the government and the public. He is a good minister, a far-off villain, and the national power of Daxia is booming. Although there are still some flaws, they are not concealed. Such a remarkable political achievement is already a rare thing.

It is not beautiful to be too demanding.

Life soon returned to peace, Liu Bian was still as usual, diligently handling complicated and ever-changing government affairs every day, and the Six Palaces became more and more harmonious under the governance of Nangong Junwei.

After gaining Liu Bian's trust and affirmation, Nangong Junwei's voice in the harem became more and more powerful day by day, and the harem seemed to be Nangong Junwei's voice.

The reason why Nangong Junwei has such a great power is because Liu Bian had played against Yin Xuan in private.

After Yin Xuan undercovered the queen for several months, he quickly gained the queen's trust by virtue of his own ability.

And Yin Xuan, who is a loyal fan of Liu Bian, made a lot of words out of Nangong Junwei's mouth.

Nangong Junwei's thoughts were almost entirely on the dragon heir. She hoped to give birth to a dragon son for Liu Bian, and then carefully cultivate him so that he could inherit the great line.

After knowing Nangong Junwei's intentions, Liu Bian became much calmer.

It is an unchanging royal tradition for a son to inherit the great line. There is nothing wrong with Nangong Junwei thinking so.

Since the match with Yin Xuan, Liu Bian's attitude towards Nangong Junwei has taken a 180-degree turn.

Good looking, good background.

Good looking and capable.

She has good looks, high IQ and EQ, and she wants to give birth to a son wholeheartedly. Such a woman can't be found with a lantern.

Of course, the main thing is good looks.

Time flies like running water, and it has been God Blessed for two years.

The first day of the first lunar month, the Lunar New Year.

There were lanterns and festoons everywhere inside and outside the government and the field, while Liu Bian dressed up and accompanied by Zhuge Yan, took a walking chariot to the Xuanzheng Hall to accept the congratulations of civil and military officials.

When leaving the old and ushering in the new, if there is no major event related to the fate of the country, officials usually report the good news and not the bad news.

So Lei Li, Minister of the Household Department, took the lead and said: "Relying on the virtue of the sage, under the wise leadership of His Majesty, all the officials have accumulated a total of 179 million taels of silver for the treasury."

"it is good."

Liu Bian nodded with a smile, and said: "As the old saying goes, a penny can't beat a hero. Now that the treasury has money, we can also make a big difference in government initiatives in the coming year."

"Yes." Lei Li bowed in agreement.

Then, Gao Shilian, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, also came out of the court class, saluting: "Qi Zuo Sheng, the vassal state Koryo sent congratulatory gifts, some Korean ginseng, some deer antler, some high-quality precious animal skins, and precious medicinal materials accompanied by demon golden lotus One, in addition to these, there are countless rare antiques, and the Goryeo envoy asked the minister to play it on his behalf, wishing my emperor long live long live long live long live."

"Okay, pass on my oral order to reward the Koryo envoy with a hundred taels of gold, so that he can stay in the capital for a while longer, and it won't be too late before he leaves," Liu Bian said.

"Yes."

Gao Shilian bowed, and immediately returned to the court with a smile.

Seeing that Lei Li was still standing there, Liu Bian had no intention of returning to court, so he frowned and asked, "What else is there for Ai Qing? Why don't you come together one by one."

"Yes."

Lei Li hurriedly bowed and saluted, and said: "My lord, the population of each region has reached the upper limit, and the number of strong men in the state capital has caused the natural growth to stagnate. Please also allocate funds to develop the construction of state capitals in various regions as soon as possible."

Hearing this, Liu Bian rolled his eyes helplessly, and said in his heart: "So you're waiting for me here, the co-author is just a passing God of Wealth."

Liu Bian let out a long sigh, and said, "Since the national treasury is full, let's vigorously develop the urban construction of the state capitals according to the previously drawn-up construction policy."

"I obey the order." Lei Li retreated in response.

Liu Bian looked at Gao Shilian, Minister of the Ministry of Rites, and reminded: "It is a major event for the country to open a department to recruit scholars, and the Ministry of Rites must pay attention to it. It must not affect the acquisition of talents for the country because of the New Year."

"Please rest assured, Your Majesty, the minister will not dare to abolish the government for personal reasons." Gao Shilian returned from his shift.

Although the results of the imperial examinations are always so unsatisfactory, Liu Bian, who has tasted some sweetness from it, still attaches great importance to it, because the imperial examinations can virtually break the monopoly of the aristocratic family on the officialdom, and for the emperor , The imperial examination is the most powerful weapon in the battlefield without gunpowder.

At this time Zhong Lifu, Minister of the Ministry of Industry, stood up silently, bowed and saluted: "Qizou the emperor, the current political situation is stable, and all people hope that your majesty will live forever, but the old saying goes well, people have immediate worries without long-term considerations, Your Majesty, please forgive me for the crime of reckless speech."

Liu Bian sighed helplessly, and thought to himself: "It seems that money is going to be spent again, the money from the national treasury is too much to be spent."

Liu Bian knew what Zhonglifu wanted to say, but today is the day to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, so it is really not good to discuss something that would spoil the scenery in public, so Liu Bian waved to Zhonglifu and said: "I know, this matter will be discussed later." Let's discuss."

Zhong Lifu frowned, and when he was about to say something more, he saw Prime Minister Shen Ce standing up with an angry face, and reprimanded: "The first day of the first lunar month is the day to say goodbye to the old and welcome the new, don't be angry here, it's not good return to."

Zhong Lifu smiled awkwardly, then retreated silently.

Looking at Zhong Lifu who returned to the court with an embarrassed expression on his face, Liu Bian shook his head helplessly, and said in his heart: "He is really an honest person."

Zhong Lifu is a typical old pedant, who likes to study hard, reads dead books, has low EQ, average ability, and has no eyesight.

He stood up suddenly just now, and wanted to persuade Liu Bian to distribute craftsmen, choose auspicious land, and build the mausoleum.

Isn’t this bad luck? It’s considered light to be reprimanded, and it deserves his fate. I met an emperor with a milder personality. Otherwise, if I met an emperor with a violent personality, next year today , is the anniversary of his death.

The early court was coming to an end, and after accepting the congratulations from the officials, Liu Bian issued an order to all officials to withdraw from the court.

After leaving the Xuanzheng Hall, Zhuge Yan brought him a piece of good news: "Congratulations, master, congratulations, master, just came to report, the empress is happy."

Liu Bian was overjoyed when he heard the words, and immediately ordered to drive to Changle Palace to visit Nangong Junwei who was pregnant with Liujia.

On the way to Changle Palace, Zhuge Yan asked cautiously: "Master, that old thief Zhonglifu has lost his eyesight. Do you need a servant to send someone to find out about him?"

Liu Bian naturally heard Zhuge Yan's implication, he waved his hand indifferently, and said: "Zhong Lifu is simple-minded and has no scheming at all, it's not a bad thing for such a person to be in the position of minister of the Ministry of Industry .”

"Yes."

Zhuge Yan hastily flattered him and said, "Master is thoughtful, but there are not many slaves."
