Of course, Chu Fan would not say that he had traveled through time and space a year ago, and that the Chu Fan in this world was actually a waste. When he became emperor, the Chu Fan did not have so many plans.
If it weren't for the series of reforms he had implemented to complete the system's mission, which backfired, the Wei Kingdom might have only had Kaifeng, a city controlled by the royal family, left.
Of course, he couldn't tell anyone that he was a time traveler. It wasn't that Chu Fan was afraid that people in this world wouldn't believe he was a time traveler, but that Chu Fan was too afraid that people in this world would know that he was from another world.
You have to know that the warriors in this world will do anything to gain strength. If they know that you come from another world, the consequences will be very serious. You may be imprisoned by those powerful warriors and forced to find a way to go to a world outside Ningwai.
Therefore, Chu Fan was not going to discuss this matter with Liu Ruyan and the others. He could only continue to make the best of it. After all, he had also integrated the memories of Chu Fan from this world, and he was now the master of this body. So as long as he didn't take the initiative to reveal that he was a time traveler, no one would discover his special situation.
Liu Ruyan said, "Your Majesty, I know these things cannot be discussed openly. After all, the Xiongnu invasion caused great suffering to the people in the north of Wei. Moreover, many people in the Hedong Kyushu region died while fleeing due to lack of food after the flood.
If the people of Wei knew that all this was planned by Your Majesty, their trust in Your Majesty would inevitably be shaken, and even a small number of people would complain, which might then destroy the current beautiful situation that Wei had worked so hard to achieve.
Of course, Your Majesty does not need to worry that those present here will leak these contents. Those present here are very loyal to Your Majesty, and they are unlikely to leak the contents of today's conversation."
After Liu Ruyan finished speaking, Liu Xueyu and the others nodded vigorously. "Your Majesty, rest assured. We are not the kind of women who like to gossip. We all know that it was not easy for Your Majesty to develop the Wei Kingdom to such a good level. We will definitely keep this secret and will not let any outsiders suspect anything."
Chu Fan looked at Liu Ruyan and the others who were imagining things like this and could only deny it three times in a row, "I'm not, I didn't, please don't talk nonsense."
Seeing Chu Fan's denial, Liu Ruyan chuckled and continued to explain what she had learned about the changes Chu Fan had made to the State of Wei.
Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "Let's not discuss whether Your Majesty was truly useless before. However, any emperor with political wisdom would see the changes in Your Majesty a year after your accession, just as I did just now. So, no matter how much Your Majesty denies it, it can't change this fact."
Chu Fan had no words to explain at this time, so he could only reluctantly say, "Ruyan, please continue to tell me what I have done in the past two years that has been beneficial to the development of Wei State."
Liu Ruyan thought to herself, His Majesty truly loves being praised. How could such a scheming emperor not know what he'd done for the State of Wei? He was asking her this question because he wanted to tell her about his achievements and have her and the others admire him.
Of course, Liu Ruyan would not directly expose Chu Fan's little thoughts, but continued to speak: "Just now we talked about those who fled Wei when it was in danger. However, Your Majesty only really started to use your means after they all left Wei, and directly stabilized the situation in Wei. And those who fled Wei saw that the situation in Wei was stable and returned to Wei one after another.
If the emperor lacked strong power, he would have compromised and allowed these people to return to Wei to continue serving as nobles and officials. However, Your Majesty did not do so. Instead, he directly carried out a major purge in the court of Wei, so that there were basically no officials and nobles who were disloyal to Wei, ensuring the stability and loyalty of the court.
Because the Wei army was basically under the control of Mu Yunfeng at that time, these people had no power to resist after returning to Wei. After this baptism, the ministers in the Wei court basically became loyal to His Majesty.
Your Majesty accomplished in just two years a feat that some emperors of other countries could not accomplish in their entire lives, thus consolidating the imperial power of Wei.
His Majesty's efforts in resettling the disaster victims in Hedong Jiuzhou have left an indelible impression on the people of Hedong Jiuzhou. His Majesty's policy of providing work-for-relief not only solved the problem of food and clothing for the disaster victims, but also built three magnificent acropolises in a short period of time.
When I first arrived in Kaifeng and saw the three newly built citadels surrounding it, I was deeply moved. These three citadels were not only incredibly tall but also incredibly strong. If Wei were to face an irresistible invasion, these three citadels would be able to withstand the enemy's attack and ensure the safety of its core areas.
Hearing this, Chu Fan really wanted to slap himself. Why had he proposed the policy of work-for-relief in the court in the first place? He had never imagined that Changsun Dechong had such superb coordination skills. He had not only solved the problem of resettlement of disaster victims, but also built such a magnificent three-walled acropolis without spending a penny. He had never imagined this.
Liu Ruyan didn't consider what Chu Fan was thinking, but continued, "After His Majesty discovered the corruption in the three citadels, he very neatly assigned the highly respected elder Cao Mengde to lead the investigation and rectification of the officials in Wei. As a result, in less than half a year, the official atmosphere in Wei was completely transformed, and corruption was greatly reduced.
His Majesty also completely delegated power to establish the Royal Government Affairs Office, allowing the princes of the royal family to serve His Majesty. In this way, the conflicts between the ministers in the court and His Majesty shifted to conflicts between the ministers and the princes of the Royal Government Affairs Office, while His Majesty retreated behind the scenes.
Both the court ministers and the Imperial Affairs Office serve Your Majesty, and they maintain checks and balances. Your Majesty only needs to make decisions. This way, the Wei court not only operates efficiently but also avoids the risks of excessive concentration of power. Of course, as a former princess of the Canglan Empire, I must admit that Your Majesty's series of measures are indeed brilliant and bold. Without the existence of these princes who check and balance the royal family, these princes and court ministers could completely undermine the imperial power. This is also the fundamental reason why other countries have been unable to emulate Your Majesty and establish the Imperial Affairs Office.
