I Transmigrated as the Novel's Delusional Tyrant Villain

Zhao Xin found himself transmigrated into a novel, becoming the great villain, a delusional tyrant. This tyrant was obsessed with wine and women, lingering in the imperial harem and never attending...

Chapter 312 Zhuge Liang (1)

Although Nan Cang commands a large number of troops and holds the position of Grand Marshal.

Wang Jin, that old eunuch, and the eunuchs under him are like mad dogs, ruthless, cruel and brutal.

If Cui Cen's faction was not also full of powerful men, Wang Jin felt that they would have the power to dominate the court and the country.

Fortunately, Nan Cang and Cui Cen were both extraordinary warriors, so they prevented the group of ruthless eunuchs who killed people without blinking an eye from taking control of the government.

He had already fulfilled the purpose of the morning court. Anyway, all the people in the court were his own. Those ministers who had never taken him seriously were now convinced in both their hearts and words.

Even if he refuses to obey, he is not an emperor without real power now. He can be dragged out and beaten to death.

Of course, he didn't dare to say that he was not good, but he could see that the ministers below were also very convinced in their hearts. After all, they all knew the strength of Wang Jin, the Queen Mother, and Cui Cen. It was actually a miracle that he could defeat them.

After the morning court session ended, Zhao Xin felt very happy. He felt like pinning the old general Nan Cang to the ground and beating him up. This was what a real emperor should do.

I can be friendly with you, but when I give you face, you have to accept it. It makes me angry and my heart trembles.

After finishing the morning court, Zhao Xin still had to go find Yu Qian. The most critical issue now was the new tax.

Although Cui Cen was a powerful official and had no intention of being loyal to the royal family and the country, he was still very capable in doing things.

Cui Cen was basically responsible for collecting taxes from all over the place. Of course, he had already moved the money away and sealed it up. It cost a lot of money to support the 150,000 private army.

It will be used later.

The current problem is the new tax. If it is my turn to make the decision, this tax will be the top priority. Money is really powerful. In human society, the most powerful thing is probably money.

Even emperors will have times when they are short of money, but tycoons will not. Emperors will have national deficits and economic crises, but those tycoons will not be as embarrassed as the emperor.

Of course, imperial power is still the most powerful. When pushed to the limit, they will no longer be reasonable and will just find a reason to rob money.

These are measures to be used in times of extreme crisis. Normally, it is still quite safe to save money.

In short, money is very important. Yu Qian alone is not enough to collect the new taxes, so he has to send Liu Muzhi to help collect the taxes.

He also planned to employ a group of talents from aristocratic families. Although he wanted to promote people from humble backgrounds, distant water cannot quench immediate thirst. He was in urgent need of talents right now. He had just taken control of the government, and there were many things to be done. There were too many problems that he had to deal with himself.

Zhao Xin didn't even summon Yu Qian, but went to him directly. The tax issue was of vital importance and it was an urgent task that must be handled well.

Yu Qian is working in Hanyu Lin. Hanyu Lin is full of his people. Liu Muzhi and Yu Qian are both here.

Li Cunxiao and Yu Huatian also belong to this department. This department was newly established by himself, similar to the previous eunuch system. The orders of Liu Muzhi and Yu Qian were all issued directly by himself.

This organization is similar to the eunuch system that Wang Jin had before, except that this system is truly controlled by himself.

After finding Yu Qian, all the officials of Han Yu Lin bowed down to him.

"Greetings, Your Majesty!" a group of people shouted.

"Stand up." Han Yu Lin has always had financial support. Yu Qian and Liu Muzhi can recruit talents on their own and pay them as much money as they want. With Yu Qian around, there is no need to worry about corruption. If there is corruption, he will come to him first to report it. He is not telling tales, but it is necessary to do so for official business.

Therefore, the Hanyu Lin has always had financial support so that its orders can be issued.

"Yu Qian, how are you doing with what I asked you to do? Have you made any progress?"

"Your Majesty, I have already investigated most of the matter. Prime Minister Cui has done an excellent job in tax collection. I cannot improve upon his achievements. I will have no choice but to take over his tax collection duties completely."

Zhao Xin nodded. Cui Cen was different from Wang Jin. Wang Jin's power was probably because he was castrated, so it was different from Cui Cen's power.

The situation under Wang Jin's control was like hell on earth. If it weren't for Cui Cen, all the ministers in the court would have protected him.

It was only because of the Queen Mother, Cui Cen, and Nan Cang, that group of extremely vicious and cruel eunuchs, that they were unable to kill the ministers.

They may not be able to kill the military generals, and if there is no powerful minister like Cui Cen, the eunuchs will have even greater power.

Now that he has his own leadership team, the eunuch system will soon be completely abolished. The eunuchs who serve as slaves will be left behind, and those who kill people with knives will all be executed.

Before he centralized power, these eunuchs did a lot of things under his name.

Regardless of whether he said anything or not, the emperor would always give the order personally, saying that once the tax problem was solved, Li Cunxiao would lead his men to execute everyone.

Selective Rewards

1. When the Immortal Golden Body receives fatal damage, it will protect the master five times, becoming invulnerable to swords and guns, water and fire, and preventing any damage within ten minutes.

2. The famous minister Zhang Liang was the first strategist under the Han Emperor Liu Bang and was respected as the "Sage of Strategy".

3. After the renowned minister Zhuge Liang, Prime Minister and Emperor Liu Bei of Shu Han, emerged from retirement at a critical moment, Liu Bei's forces surged to prominence, achieving victory after victory. Within a few years, they occupied all of Jingzhou and Yizhou, seized control of several other regions, and captured Hanzhong, using it as a base for advancing troops toward Chang'an. This marked the peak of Liu Bei's forces, but ultimately ended in failure at Wuzhangyuan.

Oh my god, Zhao Xin was stunned. What's going on? What's going on? Is Zhuge Liang here?

Zhuge Liang! Qingyu, come with me to see God...

Of course, the choice is Zhuge Liang. Just kidding, Zhuge Liang is not only a genius in domestic affairs, he is also good at fighting wars.

As long as Zhuge Liang came, the Rebellion of the Seven Kings and the land of the Seven Kings would be conquered. Either he would lead a group of famous officials from the Hanlin Academy to personally lead the army, and then let Zhuge Liang stay in the capital.

Otherwise, he could stay in the capital himself and let Zhuge Liang take Li Cunxiao to conquer the seven kings.

Anyway, among these three options, I would definitely choose Zhuge Liang.

Although Zhang Liang was also a super famous official, Zhuge Liang was more useful to him because Zhuge Liang played a greater role.

Not only can he govern the internal affairs of the Qin Dynasty, but he can also fight wars. Moreover, his strategy, tactics, knowledge and insights are not necessarily worse than Zhang Liang.

I choose Zhuge Liang! Zhao Xin shouted in his heart.

"Exchange successful."

The Zhuge Liang Famous Minister Card has been placed in the locker.

Now is not the time to summon Zhuge Liang. Although all the people in the Hanlin Academy are his own people, it would be very embarrassing if Zhuge Liang suddenly appeared.

I have to go to a quieter place.
