Seeing Chen Pingping also kneeling down, Fan Xian immediately rushed forward and helped Chen Pingping and his father-in-law Lin Ruofu up. Then he looked at Chen Pingping and said softly, "Don't bother with this."

Chen Pingping smiled slightly and whispered, "Your Majesty, human affairs are left to human affairs."

After saying this, Chen Pingping said no more, but just looked at Fan Xian with a smile.

Fan Xian understood what he meant. Although the Heavenly Court was powerful, it was impossible for it to suppress everything for him forever.

In Chen Pingping's eyes, whether for Fan Xian himself or for the people of the world and the court officials, it is necessary for Fan Xian to show the outside world an attitude that can reassure everyone.

For example, following the rules of the human world and going through the formal procedures to ascend the throne.

Even if all the court officials in this palace knew about the so-called will, no one would speak out to expose it.

On the contrary, they would be grateful for Chen Pingping's actions...

Fan Xian could understand the deep meaning behind Chen Pingping's actions, but to him, these were really unnecessary.

After all, Chen Pingping didn't know the truth behind the Heavenly Court and the so-called golden-armored general.

However, considering Chen Pingping's painstaking efforts, he still sighed, turned his head, glanced at the kneeling ministers, and said slowly and calmly: "Everyone, please stand up."

As soon as these words were spoken, the ownership of Nanqing had completely changed.

Prime Minister Lin Ruofu and Chen Pingping smiled at each other, and then took the lead in bowing to Qingguo, shouting "Thank you, Your Majesty, for your grace!"

…

…

Three days later, in the imperial study of the palace.

Fan Xian sat in the dragon bed, scrolling through his phone out of boredom.

Suddenly, the jade token on his waist vibrated. Fan Xian was alerted and quickly picked up the jade token.

...Uncle Wuzhu has finished updating!

A smile appeared on Fan Xian's face, and he quickly sent a message to Zuo Yu, asking him to help send Uncle Wu Zhu's body over.

Soon, a silver light flashed in the imperial study, and two figures emerged from it.

Fan Xian couldn't wait to jump down from the dragon's nest. Just as he was about to go over, he suddenly froze there as if he had discovered something. His eyes slightly widened, and he looked at the figure on the left in surprise.

"Uncle Wu...Uncle Wuzhu, you..."

“…”

Wu Zhu frowned, looked down at himself, and asked in confusion: "What's wrong with me?"

Fan Xian swallowed his saliva and looked in amazement at the pretty face and the clear eyes he had never seen before.

"Your eyes...where is the black cloth?"

"Oh, I picked it for him!"

Zuo Yu beside him smiled and patted Wu Zhu on the shoulder: "His eyes were originally laser devices, but the power supply components are too outdated and have not been repaired for many years, so they sometimes work and sometimes don't, and they can easily go berserk."

"For safety reasons, I replaced his eyes with a pair of better mechanical prosthetic eyes, and the energy radiation device was also moved from the eyes to the palms and chest."

"Especially the chest. I just returned from the world of One Punch Man and recruited the doctor behind Genos. I also got a lot of useful core parts from him."

"It just so happened that Wuzhu was updating the system at Wanjie Technology. I liked him, so I installed a G4 model turbine core on him, along with a modified version of the incinerator, a Type IV thruster, a Void III forearm cannon, and other highly versatile weapons. If he uses all his power, it shouldn't be a problem to smash a mountain with one shot..."

Zuo Yu had a smile on his face and talked to Wu Zhu while holding his shoulders.

Fan Xian swallowed his saliva, feeling dizzy after listening to it.

Before being sent into the alliance, his Uncle Wuzhu was just an intelligent bionic robot.

How come he suddenly becomes a Cybertronian when he is sent back now?

Incinerator cannon, turbine core, blasting a mountain into pieces with one shot?

Fan Xian blinked his eyes, and suddenly felt that the number of imperial guards that had been laid off before was not enough, and he should lay off more.

At this moment, Zuo Yu suddenly changed the subject: "The other parts don't matter, they're not worth much, but I just got the turbine core, and Wanjie Technology is selling it for 999 Gray Mist Coins even though it's on sale. How do you think we should settle this bill?"

“…”

Fan Xian's face froze, and he whispered, "It's not free?"

"What do you think?" Zuo Yu looked at Fan Xian unhappily. Seeing his embarrassed expression, his face suddenly changed and he said with a smile, "I was just teasing you. Just consider it the reward for the mission of giving Emperor Qing's genetic sample..."

"Oh, by the way, speaking of this, I remembered, how is the task I gave you going?"

Hearing the words "just teasing you", Fan Xian had already breathed a sigh of relief.

But when he heard the last mission, Fan Xian's heart started to rise like a roller coaster again.

He blinked his eyes, carefully sizing up Zuo Yu's expression, and whispered, "Boss Zuo, give me some more time. I accidentally usurped the throne and became the emperor. I have a lot of things on my hands now, so I can't get away!"

"But I am serious about your mission."

"I have ordered Ye Liuyun, who has been traveling around the world, to return to Kyoto."

"When he comes back, I'll beat him up and take his blood samples."

Fan Xian waved his fist, looking like he had made up his mind and no one could stop him.

Zuo Yu smiled and waved his hand: "I just mentioned it casually, don't be nervous, time is something I have the most."

As he spoke, Zuo Yu walked to the dragon bed, sat down on it, picked up the peach on the table and started eating it.

Fan Xian didn't care either. He had already put his full attention on Wu Zhu.

"Uncle Wuzhu, how do you feel?"

"I feel great, as if I had moved from a cramped, dark room into a spacious palace. My thoughts are much clearer now, and I can remember everything I experienced with the young lady."

Wuzhu's speech became less stiff and his tone more human.

When talking about remembering the past, he even slightly raised the corners of his mouth, revealing a clear smile.

Seeing this scene, Fan Xian couldn't help but feel happy.

"That's good, that's good..."

Fan Xian held Wu Zhu's arm, his handsome face full of warmth and smiles.

Zuo Yu half-sat on the edge of the dragon bed, looking at the two with a smile, and suddenly asked curiously: "By the way, you have held the coronation ceremony and officially ascended the throne... When do you plan to marry your sister-in-law?"

“…”

Fan Xian was stunned for a moment, and thinking back to how depressed Lin Wan'er had been these days, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Wait a little longer. Princess Li Yunrui was killed by a lightning bolt, and Wan'er is now in mourning for her. Although there is not much affection between them, they are still blood relatives after all, so we should show some care."

"Besides, there are too many state affairs in the Ming Dynasty right now, and I really can't spare any time..."

Zuo Yu raised his eyebrows and asked in surprise: "Ming Dynasty? Isn't it Qing Kingdom?"

Fan Xian walked over with a smile: "I have changed the country's name to Ming, and then copied the Ming ancestral motto of 'no marriage, no tribute, no vassalage, no cession of territory'. The old officials in the court all agreed with it and passed it almost unanimously."

"The only trouble is the various letters and agreements that Qing Kingdom had signed with other countries."

"These things basically have to be started over again, with missions sent to various countries to sign them again."

Zuo Yu was surprised and asked: "If it's so troublesome, why do we have to change the country's name? Is it just for that sentence?"

Fan Xian shook his head and sighed, "It's mainly because of Chen Pingping's attitude. He thinks that the usurpation of the throne is not enough revenge on Emperor Qing. Moreover, under Emperor Qing's management for so many years, Qing has indeed become a stagnant pool. It needs such a heavy blow to break the old world and change the concepts of the people."

Zuo Yu glanced at him and smiled, "Just changing the name of the country is not enough to break the old world."

Fan Xian smiled and said, "Take your time. Anyway, I am the one in charge now, and I will not follow Emperor Qing's old path."

As he spoke, Fan Xian walked to Zuo Yu, picked up a memorial and handed it to Zuo Yu.

Zuo Yu raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is this?"

Fan Xian sighed and said, "What Emperor Qing has done over the years..."

"Back then, Ye Qingmei told him all of her ideals and ambitions, and he accepted them all. However, after he ascended the throne and officially implemented them, the results were completely different."

"Ye Qingmei said that she wanted to reform and eradicate the malpractices in the court. Emperor Qing listened to her, but he only changed the reign title, saying that he wanted to bring a new atmosphere to Qing. He then changed the Ministry of War to the old Ministry of Military Affairs, and then to the Privy Council."

"The various important government offices just changed their names, but he called it restructuring and the implementation of new policies."

"There is also a postal system. Ye Qingmei said that this should be built all over the country, saying that it will be of great benefit to business and people's livelihood."

"Emperor Qing also listened to it, but the postal system he established is a complete joke. It costs one tael of silver to send a letter. Who can afford it except the children of officials?"

"This huge postal system is totally useless except for supporting a large number of lazy relatives of post station officials!"

"There are also things like promoting commerce, promoting agriculture, publishing newspapers, listening to advice, abolishing eunuchs..."

"Ye Qingmei's suggestions to him are not few and not insignificant, but as long as he implements them, it will completely turn into the appearance of an ancient feudal dynasty."

"The merchant houses that were originally able to strengthen the country and improve the status of merchants have become the inner treasury for the royal family to make money. The water conservancy projects developed to promote agriculture have become the governor's office for river transportation that the people are afraid of."

"If I hadn't asked the Supervisory Council to conduct a thorough investigation after I ascended the throne, I wouldn't have known that this government office was actually the darkest place in the world. The level of corruption among its officials is shocking, and even involves most of the officials in the court, shaking the country's government."

"There is also the Supervisory Council established by Ye Qingmei. It was originally intended to supervise the imperial power, but he used it as a Jinyiwei to strengthen the imperial power."

"The educational institute established by Ye Qingmei was originally intended to enlighten the people, but he turned it into a so-called Imperial College full of waste..."

Fan Xian became angrier and angrier as he spoke. He couldn't help but pick up a memorial and throw it on the armor rack next to him.

Zuo Yu glanced at the armor stand. He could feel that there was a soul inside.

Fan Xian looked at the armor rack coldly and said, "The same concept, when implemented by different people, will produce very different results. I am not Emperor Qing, and I am not as short-sighted as him."

Zuo Yu smiled and said, "You are not just saying this to me, right?"
