"Clean up the internal affairs?" Yu Bai casually picked up a cup of tea. "How do you clean it up?"
Fusu's lips curled up in a hint of sarcasm. "A few days ago, my father held a night banquet, claiming to reward his ministers with mutated high-quality food. But in reality... he was just using it as an opportunity to reorganize the court."
His voice was soft, but it carried a sharp chill.
"The real action took place near the end of the banquet."
He lowered his eyelids and slowly recounted the scene:
"When the ministers and their families first tasted the food, they found it incredibly delicious, and even felt their bodies strengthened and their lifespans extended. For a moment, they were all overjoyed and moved, bursting into tears of gratitude towards their father—"
Having said that, he paused for a moment and looked at Yu Bai.
"Unfortunately, they forgot one thing: all gifts are in the hands of the emperor and can be taken back at any time."
"So," Yu Bai said in a low voice, "those people..."
Fusu nodded and said no more. He summed up the bloody storm in one sentence:
"Those who are loyal will be promoted and given titles, while those who are disloyal will be dealt with on the spot, and no one will survive."
As Fusu finished speaking, a strange light flashed in Yu Bai's eyes, a kind of admiration that was almost worshipful.
She couldn't help but sigh softly: "Your Majesty the First Emperor is indeed a role model for our generation!"
When she has enough abilities, she will also learn this courage and method. This is how you should deal with people like Zhao Jia and Zhou Anan, cutting the grass at its roots and leaving no future troubles!
Her eyes shifted, looking at Fusu with a hint of inquiry: "Such a drastic measure must be intended to completely stabilize the court. Is he preparing for a major move?"
Fusu nodded and said, "Your guess is correct. Father does have the intention to innovate, but this matter is complicated and needs to be approached slowly. The most important thing right now is to promote those optimized mutant grain varieties."
"Is it going to be promoted already?" Yu Bai's eyes widened, her tone unable to conceal her surprise, "So soon?"
Fusu nodded and said, "It's just being promoted on a small scale in the capital. After all, there aren't many kinds of grain."
But that’s a good start!
Yu Bai couldn't help but imagine a magnificent picture in his mind: on the vast land, crops are growing wildly, the people no longer have to worry about hunger, and the national strength of the Qin Dynasty is booming... What kind of scene will that be?
For a moment, she felt her blood boiling and was full of anticipation for this unknown future.
