He sounded pathetic.
It seemed as if the entire Zhou Dynasty was in Mo Yunhan's hands.
And he was nothing more than a rose clinging to it.
Although Mo Yunhan found it strange, the improvement of border weapons was indeed an urgent matter.
The threat was not to the Sui Dynasty, but to the surrounding countries.
Especially the recently restless Dayu Kingdom.
"Your Majesty, Su Weichuan is dead, but there are still many loyal ministers in the army who are willing to devote themselves to the Great Zhou. The reform of border weapons will not be difficult to implement. As for the counterattack of the remnants of the Great Sui, I believe it is no longer possible."
"In the Battle of Mahuai Slope, the remnants of the Sui Dynasty must have come out in full force, and both soldiers and weapons were almost wiped out. The Sui Dynasty has been destroyed for many years, and now its population is dwindling, with no hope of restoration. It will only increase casualties. Such a tragic lesson can also deter neighboring countries. If the Great Zhou continues to exterminate them, it will be unbecoming of a great power. It would be better to be lenient and give them a way to live."

I recommend Jiang Zhao, the deputy head of the Imperial Academy, to be appointed as the head, so as to restore order to the academic affairs and allow talented and virtuous people to enter officialdom and serve the country."
"Jiang Zhao?"
Mo Yunzhao tapped his leg with his fingertips.
"I don't particularly like that bookworm. However, he is a man who, though not particularly tactful, is capable of getting things done. I approve of this."
"Little Jiu, you see, you're still worried about the affairs of the Great Zhou. After the wedding, you mustn't leave the capital and abandon me. Although the Su Weichuan matter has been resolved, the documents stolen from the Zhang family are still causing rumors, all questioning the absurdity of officials entering officialdom. I want you to investigate this matter thoroughly and clear away the muddy waters!"
