I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 11: The most important thing for a person is to know himself!
Wherever Li Chen went, he was surrounded by people, and Lin Yue'e had no way to get close to him.

She could only watch Li Chen's back as he left in silence, feeling mixed emotions.

At this time, a little sister next to her looked at her with regret and said, "Yue'e, why didn't you seize the opportunity? I heard that our new emperor just ascended the throne and he doesn't even have a concubine."

What she meant was to encourage Lin Yue'e to get in touch with Li Chen, perhaps she would be able to rise to the top and become a phoenix.

This made Lin Yue'e stunned, and then she said seriously: "You can't say that. Your Majesty just met me by chance during his incognito visit and helped me solve the problem. By the way, he improved our cultivation environment and the welfare of the academy. I think what we need to do is not to think about climbing up the social ladder all day long, but to practice hard, do our part in the future, and contribute to the Tiance Dynasty. This will not be in vain for Your Majesty's cultivation of us."

Lin Yue'e's words were quite honest. She knew that she was pretty, but not enough to make anyone crazy.

The most important thing for people is to have self-awareness.

If you think too much about unrealistic things, you will become obsessed with them.

If Lin Yue'e couldn't figure this out, she wouldn't have achieved her current level of cultivation.

The most important thing is that Li Chen's eyes were very "clear" when he looked at her, and he could tell at a glance whether he liked her or not.

"Uh, then why are you standing here like an idiot?"

"I was just thinking that your majesty's kindness is not over yet!"

"."

Tonight may be a happy day for many people.

The new emperor Li Chen solved the problems that had plagued the Battle Academy for years. Not only would there be no more second-generation rich people causing trouble, but there would be more resources to supplement.

Having restored the Battle Academy to its former vitality, his reputation will naturally spread by word of mouth in the Battle Academy.

Many elite students have already regarded him as the goal they want to follow in their lifetime.

But Li Chen now feels like cursing.

"What? You don't count this as completing my mission?"

After returning to the bedroom, Li Chen realized that his task was not completed.

He took action twice in total. Li Chen had no idea whether Chen Rong from the Ministry of Rites's Ceremonial Affairs Bureau had any skills.

But Chen Jie, the second-generation rich man, had studied at the Combat Academy after all, so even if he was a waste, he should have some skills.

[After checking, the two people defeated by the host were at the peak of Condensation Realm and had no cultivation level respectively. The host did not defeat the cultivator in the middle stage of Opening Meridians Realm, so the task cannot be settled.]

Li Chen: “.”

The Ningyuan Realm is one level higher than the Kaimai Realm.

Good man, you insist on asking me to open the middle stage of the meridian realm. Anything higher won’t count, right?

You are not afraid that I will kill someone in the middle stage of Kaimai Realm.

At Li Chen's current level, it is easy to find a strong opponent to fight, but it is really difficult to find a weak opponent.

However, seeing that there was still a lot of time left, Li Chen could only find time to go to the east of the city again.

At this moment he was thinking whether his method was wrong.

At first, Li Chen thought that he was already an emperor at the Saint level, so he could take two subordinates out, find a troublemaker and beat him up, and complete the task.

He was too lazy to hide his identity, as long as it was legitimate.

If the system judged that I had just traveled through time and arranged a novice tutorial for myself, then I should have had few subordinates around me at that time and my status was not high.

So the system wants me to go alone? And I have to hide my identity?

But what is its intention in asking me to do this? Is it really just to complete a task?

In other words, the system wants me to gain something, and this "thing" should be helpful to me "at that time".

Early morning the next day.

Li Chen still looked listless.

But the people below were in high spirits, especially the Minister of Rites Yan Hai, who looked so proud that those who didn't know would think that there was some happy event in his family. However, there were still big changes in today's morning court.

General Guo Poyun was punished to reflect at home for three days. The empress dowager, who was supposed to rule the country from behind the scenes, used illness as an excuse and did not attend the morning court.

Prime Minister Zhao Wenyuan still looked steady and no one knew what he was thinking.

Compared to yesterday's noise, today seems particularly serious and solemn.

Everyone's attention is focused on the new emperor Li Chen, and his every move needs to be figured out.

As soon as the court meeting began, Minister of Rites Yan Hai presented some lists.

These were the charges he had filed against the officials of the Ministry of Rites yesterday. They were written in great detail, even revealing that Chen Rong from the Ministry of Rites had stolen a chicken from his neighbor when he was seven years old.

Li Chen didn't even know how he checked.

As for how to deal with it, this is also very simple. Li Chen asked Yan Hai to deal with it strictly according to the law.

Yan Hai understood what Li Chen meant. Originally, these people would only go to jail for abusing their power for personal gain, but now they would be sent to mine.

Next, other court officials also began to report their work seriously.

For example, the eaves of the palace needed to be renovated, the official roads outside the city needed to be repaired, and there were also reports from local government offices.

For the first time, Li Chen felt like he was in prison.

Why does the emperor have so many things to do? It takes hours just to listen to his reports.

What's more, there are still some memorials waiting for him to review in the Imperial Study.

This made Li Chen very confused. He didn't understand why the other princes wanted to be emperor so much.

The emperor had only been in office for two days when he began to feel annoyed.

But Li Chen also has his own way.

Let the court officials handle small matters themselves, and ask Prime Minister Zhao Wenyuan for advice on major matters.

There are certain rules and regulations for all these things, and they must be clear about them as they have been officials for so many years.

It just requires the permission of Emperor Li Chen to do it.

Halfway through the court meeting, the Minister of War stood up.

"Your Majesty, I have received urgent news from the border that the Third Prince is plotting rebellion at the border. He started a rebellion the day before yesterday and his army is heading towards the imperial capital. The situation is critical. I hope Your Majesty can make a decision soon."

The voice of the Minister of War echoed in the hall, and every word was like a heavy hammer, striking the hearts of the ministers.

The hall instantly fell into silence, with only the heavy and rapid breathing of the Minister of War remaining.

The ministers looked at each other, their eyes filled with shock and anxiety.

What surprised them was not that the Third Prince rebelled, but that the Third Prince actually dared to rebel?

If he were an ordinary emperor, he would have rebelled, but this emperor was a saint.

What is the difference between the third prince's rebellion and seeking death?

Because there is no radio in this world, the transmission of intelligence is delayed. The third prince has withdrawn his rebellion, but we have not received the news of his withdrawal yet.

Now all the civil and military officials in the court began to talk about it. It was said that the second prince had also caused trouble, but at most he just talked bad in the court and did not take any actual action.

Besides, Li Chen is too lazy to care about him, so there is no need for others to continue mentioning it.

But the third prince is different. He took the border troops away from the defense area. This is really unacceptable.

Prime Minister Zhao Wenyuan didn't say a word, but he knew in his heart that the Minister of War was the Empress Dowager's man.

The Queen Mother didn't come today, so I guess she's controlling everything behind the scenes.

Does the Queen Mother want Your Majesty to fight with the Third Prince first?
