Vientiane Throne of Civilization

Chapter 1660 Finally matched with amazing teammates!

Charman found that every aspect of the Great Zhou Dynasty always brought him many surprises.

After watching Huo Qubing and Li Bowen leave, Charman didn't dwell on the matter for too long, and his attention quickly fell on the mountain of documents.

He had taken a long break before, and now that he's back to government work, Charman is in pretty good shape.

With a clear mind and quick judgment, he had unknowingly accumulated a small stack of processed documents beside him.

During this period, compared to Huo Qubing and Li Bowen, who started work early and had just finished get off work after working all night, Zhou Xu arrived right on time.

To avoid disturbing the work of the assistants inside the hall, even if Zhou Xu came, the guards outside the Qin Zheng Hall would not make a sound, but would simply bow.

This meant that Charman didn't notice Zhou Xu's arrival until Zhou Xu entered the hall.

"Charman greets Your Majesty!"

Upon seeing this, Charman was startled and quickly stood up to bow, but Zhou Xu raised his hand to stop him.

"Sit down and continue with your work. In our Great Zhou, we only value efficiency. We should cut corners on red tape whenever possible."

As Zhou Xu spoke, he glanced at the two empty desks.

Seeing this, Charman quickly began to explain...

"The other two assistants worked all night and just left this morning, saying they would come back this afternoon."

"I understand. You can continue with your work."

Huo Qubing and Li Bowen did not leave the palace last night; they stayed in the Qin Zheng Hall to work overtime. The guards on duty were not stupid; they would definitely report to him.

Zhou Xu did not stop it after learning about it.

After all, the series of events surrounding the Saint Laurent region during this period had indeed caused their workload to surge.

At the Qin Zheng Hall, it has reached a point where working overtime is absolutely necessary.

Zhou Xu also worked overtime, but he didn't stay up all night like Huo Qubing and the others.

There was no other way; as the supreme ruler of the Great Zhou, he had many things to do every day, and it wasn't just a matter of staying in the Hall of Diligent Governance to review documents.

Therefore, he must ensure his condition and rest when he needs to.

Charman, who had been an emperor, understood this very well, which also allowed him to understand Zhou Xu's 'punctuality'.

For an emperor, ensuring his rest time and avoiding overwork was also a sign of professionalism.

There's no room for pleasantries or small talk. When you're with Zhou Xu, you're just doing your job properly.

After exchanging brief greetings, Zhou Xu sat down at his desk and quickly began flipping through the documents that had already piled up on it.

Soon, only the sound of documents being turned could be heard inside the Hall of Diligent Governance.

After finishing another document, Charman stretched his stiff neck and glanced subconsciously at Zhou Xu's desk.

Upon seeing this, I was immediately startled.

The desk that was once piled high with documents now had almost half the number of documents on it.

【So fast? 】

Although these documents were processed by the assistants before being submitted to the emperor for review, this method was used to reduce the emperor's workload.

Even so, isn't the speed a bit too fast?
This made Charman wonder if His Majesty was actually reading the documents, or if he was just quickly flipping through them and glancing at them before finishing.
Just as Charman was thinking this, Zhou Xu picked up the next document, which immediately made Charman a little nervous.

Because he was the one who processed that document.

After some time, Charman figured it out: the Great Zhou seemed to use different colors to mark different documents. All documents from the Saint Laurent region were the same color, so he could recognize them.

After a quick glance, Zhou Xu looked at the documents in front of him, pondered for a moment, and then spoke...

"Charman, are you free right now?" Because he had been secretly observing her, Charman was clearly startled when her name was suddenly called. She felt like she had been caught slacking off at work, and even her speech became slightly stuttered.

"Yes, I'm free."

Seeing this, Zhou Xu chuckled.

With his Nascent Soul Realm mage-level perception, even without consciously trying, he was fully aware of everyone's every move in the Diligent Governance Hall, and he could even sense their emotional fluctuations.

Furthermore, Zhou Xu could even roughly deduce their thoughts from their actions and emotions, creating an effect similar to mind reading.

He didn't care about Charman's harmless little tricks at the moment.

"You were the one who handled this document, weren't you?"

"Your Majesty is wise!"

This made Charman, who had previously doubted whether Zhou Xu had just casually flipped through the pages or glanced at them, feel ashamed.

At the same time, I started to feel a little nervous...

"Was there a problem with the processing?"

Although that's what he asked, Charman didn't really think that way. He was fairly confident in his governing abilities.

Different people have different styles of handling the same thing, and therefore their methods will also differ, but Charman did not think there was anything wrong with his approach.

Not to mention the Saint Laurent region, within this Hall of Diligent Governance, there should be no one who understands it better or can handle it better than himself.

Having discerned Charman's intentions, Zhou Xu didn't intend to blame him, but instead spoke directly...

"Huo Qubing and his men will find it difficult to handle these documents because they don't understand the Saint Laurent region. The difference between you and them is that you understand the Saint Laurent region very well, but you don't understand our Great Zhou as well."

There was no need to say much; Charman wasn't stupid. In just one sentence, he had already figured it out.

What the Saint Laurent Empire couldn't do before doesn't mean the Great Zhou can't.

Charman was still trying to handle these matters according to his original ideas and the capabilities of the Saint Laurent Empire, which, in Zhou Xu's eyes, was naturally not the optimal solution.

This was a basic mistake he made because he was caught up in his habitual thinking.

Charman, realizing what was happening, blushed instantly, but then he realized an even more embarrassing problem.

That means almost all the files I process have this problem!

"Your Majesty, these documents..."

Seeing Charman's embarrassed expression, Zhou Xu waved his hand.

"It's alright. I was going to review these documents again anyway. Just make the changes as I said."

At this moment, Charman was so ashamed that he wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into. But at the same time, he had no doubts about the emperor in front of him, and he also clearly realized that he had finally been matched with a god-like teammate!

During this process, a bold idea also came to Charman's mind.

"Your Majesty, I have an idea regarding the Saint Laurent region at this stage."

"tell me the story."

Zhou Xu looked at him with great interest.

Then, Charman spoke calmly...

"Your Majesty should take this opportunity to kill all the nobles in the Saint Laurent region!"

"..."
