Xia Chujian returned to Beichen Star with the remaining soldiers.
Along the way, her adjutant asked uneasily, "Your Highness Qisha, are you confident in sending an officer from one of the four great dukedoms to carry out the mission of suppressing the rebellion?"
"Aren't you afraid they'll take advantage of the situation and start a rebellion?"
Xia Chujian said calmly, "Do you know why I asked them to supervise the execution of Nansi, Wenren, and the Zuolun family?"
"First, it's to intimidate the Duke's family. If they have any other intentions, this will be their fate."
"Secondly, let those who slip through the net share half of their hatred with these four dukes."
"Thirdly, the heads of the four great dukedoms know that I am doing this to completely tie them to the chariot of the Beichen Empire."
Xia Chujian finally said: "This is also a good education for the families of the four dukes."
"Let them understand what it means to rest with the country."
Xia Chujian knew that the Beichen Empire was growing larger and larger, and the Dantai royal family alone could no longer effectively manage the entire country.
Therefore, it is necessary to raise the four dukes to the position of "masters".
At this time, Xia Chujian felt that the imperial system was no longer suitable for this rapidly developing empire.
When Xia Chujian returned to Beichen Star with his army, officers from the Su, Quan, Zong and Li families respectively sent back news.
Except for the three largest habitable planets, namely Southern Cross, Great Tibetan Star and Bomu Star, the other fifty-four small rebellious planets have all been recovered.
All families that instigated rebellion will be exterminated.
New administrators and garrisons also arrived and established a new political order.
Ordinary people's lives recovered at the fastest speed.
…
Xia Chujian returned to the imperial palace in the capital of Beichen Star and still sat on the highest throne.
At this moment, she is the regent, but also the supreme ruler of the empire.
But a woman in the uniform of a court clerk stepped forward and said calmly, "Your Highness, you are the Regent, not the Emperor. Please leave your throne."
Then, she glanced into the hall and said, "Members of the cabinet and military representatives, what do you think?"
Unexpectedly, these people kept their heads down as low as possible and ignored her words.
The woman was also a little anxious, and couldn't help asking again: "Don't you think the Regent is sitting in a position she shouldn't be sitting in?"
Still no one answered.
Xia Chujian smiled slightly at this time and said, "Who are you? What makes you say I shouldn't sit in this position?"
The woman turned around, looked at Xia Chujian, and said bravely, "I am the secretary of His Highness Pojun."
"You are only the Regent, not His Majesty the Emperor, so you cannot sit on His Majesty's throne."
Xia Chujian became interested and deliberately asked, "Really? Who made this rule?"
"Is there any law that says this is a seat that only the emperor can sit in?"
The woman opened her eyes wide and said in surprise, "Does this even require the law?!"
"This is His Majesty's empire! His Majesty's palace! And of course, His Majesty's throne!"
Xia Chujian asked, "Then how did His Majesty obtain the empire? How did he obtain the palace? How did he obtain the throne? Do you know?"
The woman immediately said, "Of course I know! It was our founding emperor, Tan Tai Lin, who was incredibly powerful and a genius! He was the man who founded this kingdom!"
"That's how we got this empire! This palace! And this throne!"
Xia Chujian nodded and said calmly, "You are right. It was the founding emperor, Tan Tai Lin, who established the country, built the palace, and placed the throne."
"Then ask Tan Tailin to come out!"
"According to you, only Tan Tai Lin is qualified to sit in this position!"
The woman was dumbfounded by Xia Chujian's retort. After a while, she said, "...The heir of His Majesty Tan Tai Lin is also qualified!"
Xia Chujian sneered: "First of all, only those who have conquered the country are qualified to sit in this position."
"Then they said that the descendants of those who founded the kingdom are entitled to sit on it."
"So what you're saying is that only you can decide who is qualified to sit in this position?!"
The woman waved her hands hurriedly: "Your Highness, the Regent, that's not what I meant... I..."
She wanted to explain, but Xia Chujian had already picked up the gun, pointed it at her, and said, "This is a meeting of the country's cabinet members. You are just a eunuch and have no right to stand in this hall."
"If you leave now, I won't shoot you."
The woman's face suddenly turned pale, her lips moved as if she wanted to speak, but she no longer dared to. She knelt down and saluted, then walked away in shame.
After she left, Xia Chujian sat on the high platform, looking at the cabinet members and military representatives in the hall, and said slowly: "Everyone, there is something I want to discuss with you."
The people below quickly looked up and looked at Xia Chujian who was sitting on the throne.
Xia Chujian glanced at them again and said, "Go and call everyone from the Senate."
"This matter must be proposed by me, the Regent, and endorsed by the Cabinet, the Military, and the Senate."
After she said that, how could the people below dare not listen?
Soon, two or three hundred people from the Senate and the upper and lower houses came in.
Fortunately, the hall is spacious and can accommodate another thousand people.
Xia Chujian solemnly announced at the top: "Beichen Empire, due to the sudden disappearance of His Majesty the Emperor, three princes, in order to ascend to the throne, have assassinated and coerced their own brothers, causing devastating impact on the operation of the entire country."
"The three major families of Nansi, Wenren, and Zuolun took the opportunity to rebel, split the star and sealed the country, and almost succeeded."
