"By the way, Prime Minister, this matter must not be made public, especially not to His Majesty."
Li Mingzhong was taken aback. "Why?"
"I was thinking that if he could win more awards in the military camp and take first place, his identity would be revealed at the end of the competition."
Li Mingzhong! "Then why hide your identity to participate in training?"
"The army and the people are one family. As the emperor, he should naturally set an example. This will earn him a better reputation, especially the admiration, respect and support of the soldiers and generals in the army."
Li Mingzhong was dumbfounded. He hadn't expected that His Majesty's visit to the military camp was all because Murong Jin wanted to establish a better identity and reputation for him...
Why would someone who does this think that Murong Jin wanted to seize the Great Cheng Empire?
"This old minister has a question for the Regent..."
Murong Jin sat there, exuding a cold and aloof aura that could only be admired from afar. "I once considered rebellion."
With just this one sentence, Murong Jin's previous thoughts were exposed, and so far, he has not rebelled.
The reason is self-evident.
"But I am not interested in that position. I said something in the Golden Palace before, and I believe the Prime Minister still remembers it well."
Li Mingzhong still remembers that it was because of that sentence that Murong Jin angered the late emperor. Not only did he kill the assassin in the Golden Palace, but he also said, "I will only be loyal to a wise ruler who loves his country and people." If he were a tyrant who killed innocent people, Murong Jin would not be loyal to him just because he was the emperor.
He was shocked at the time, because Murong Jin was only eighteen years old...
...
"Your Highness."
"I understand. Emperor Junlan is not a bad person. It's just that he had some bad experiences when he was young. But he met An Kesen and the master who taught him. These are the reasons why he didn't turn bad. It shows that he still has potential."
"I am physically disabled but determined. Once my health fails, I may not be able to protect the Great Cheng. Therefore, the idea of shaping His Majesty into a wise and benevolent ruler should be valid."
Li Mingzhong: "I understand, Your Majesty. I will do my best to cooperate with you."
Thank you.
The second time I felt that Murong Jin was so dazzling was when I saw him in the Golden Palace. The first time was when I was shocked by the scene. If the Prince of Zhenbei hadn't been there, after the boy said those things, especially the late emperor's words, "What if I were a tyrant?"
Murong Jin: "The will to kill takes its place..."
Murong Zhi, the father, was stunned.
Li Mingzhong's eyes widened at that moment; the young man was fearless...
"Very well, I hereby appoint you as a young general. The task of protecting the Great Cheng is now entrusted to you..."
"Murong Jin, it is my duty."
………
Looking back, the Murong Jin of that time and the Murong Jin of now are only slightly different in personality; what they cherish in their hearts remains unchanged.
Our original aspiration remains unchanged.
Li Mingzhong shook his head. "I'm getting old. The country will rely on its youth in the future. A strong youth makes a strong nation."
After returning to the palace, Emperor Junlan went straight to his study.
"Master, aren't you going to rest?"
Di Junlan looked at the documents and papers on the table. "If you finish your homework, you might even get praised."
The shadow guard beside him: "..."
The master is now completely influenced by the regent.
………
"Among those men in black, some were attending recruit training camp."
"According to the investigation, there are currently more than 20 new recruits whose backgrounds are simple but whose problems are obvious at a glance."
"Sir, should we secretly arrest all of them and bring them to justice?"
Ming Qingxuan looked at the letter and said, "We don't need to do it for now, but we will send people to monitor us secretly. If any abnormalities are found, we will arrest them."
"yes!"
...
A deep voice came from the shadows, "Can the Evil Eye really bring people back to life?"
"It's better to believe it exists than to believe it doesn't."
"Furthermore, when the Emperor of Jinling Kingdom died, the entire country knew, yet he was later resurrected. Apart from insiders, who else knows about this?"
In a deep voice, he said, "Oh? Then I'll believe you for now. However, seeing how busy Murong Jin is, I find it quite amusing."
After that person left, a man in black suddenly appeared from the side and said, "Have someone speed things up and find the location of the Evil Eye."
"yes."
………
Zhenguo Temple.
"Master, the people the Regent arranged have already entered and are guarding the four cardinal directions."
The abbot sat in front of the Buddha statue. "Hmm, have the martial monks guard the Demon Suppression Pavilion. If they discover anything unusual, report to this old monk and also go to the Regent's Palace to find the Regent."
"yes!"
The Regent's Palace.
Di Junlan hadn't finished his homework. "Brother, can I do this homework after I get back from the competition?"
"OK."
"Okay, what are you going to do today, brother?"
Murong Jin tossed something to him, and Di Junlan caught it and saw that it was something he had become familiar with over the past three years.
Memorial to the emperor.
"Since you're on vacation these two days and you seem to be in high spirits, then come and review the memorials."
Emperor Lan: "..."
Sitting next to Murong Jin, the two of them looked at the memorials together and then made corrections together.
I took a look at the ones that Murong Jin had corrected, and most of them were just two words: "Not approved".
Di Junlan took another look at the contents. This matter wasn't a big deal, but it wasn't a small one either. It could be resolved with just some time, effort, and money...
Finally, looking at some of the revised memorials, marked with the word "approved," it was clear that most of the issues involved multiple ministers working together, and the memorials themselves explained the reasons and methods thoroughly...
So this is how you can correct memorials? Nobody taught him this before.
"Brother, how do we revise this? The higher-ups say they want to relocate the fishermen who live along the coast. The sea there is mostly high tide, especially during heavy rains. The fishermen have to run to the mountains for refuge, and their homes will be flooded..."
Murong Jin: "Granted."
"When the national strength and financial resources allow, anything that benefits the people should be considered for their benefit. If the national strength and financial resources are insufficient, then other ways should be found to solve this problem. We cannot let the people lose heart. After all, those who govern the country should put the people first."
"There are countries without rulers, but never countries without people. As long as the people's rights exist, the country exists; when the people's rights perish, the country perishes."
This statement, which Murong Jin learned after awakening, makes a lot of sense.
Di Junlan hummed in agreement, "I understand."
"Also remember, without the people there is no ruler."
Without the people, there is no such thing as a country, so what is the point of talking about a monarch?
Emperor Junlan was handling matters very seriously, and Murong Jin noticed this out of the corner of her eye, feeling quite satisfied.
In the afternoon, Di Junlan fell asleep on the table. Murong Jin looked at the sleeping man, put her cloak hanging next to him on him, and then gently pushed the wheelchair away from the study.
I didn't get a good rest last night, and you can tell from my answers to today's homework. I've spent a lot of time thinking about how to solve the problems above.
I hope Di Junlan won't disappoint her.
