Quick Wear: Everyone knows I am a good person

"Those who say Sun Wenzhong is honest have clearly not read his memoirs."

Youyou couldn't help but laugh and said, "Sun Wenzhong has been Emperor Jiaheng's little follower since he was a child, always climbing walls and squatting in corners to watch the gossip. He's full of bad ideas. It's just that he seems more honest compared to Emperor Jiaheng and Shu Jiao."

"Don't forget, who originally owned the film studio?"

"It's in Sun Wenzhong's hands!"

"Believe that he is an honest man, or you would rather believe that I am the reincarnation of Emperor Jiaheng."

During the reign of Emperor Jiaheng.

Emperor Jiaheng remained silent and looked at Sun Wenzhong.

The predecessor of the film studio?

Sun Wenzhong looked slightly enlightened, then nodded slightly and said in a low voice, "Your Majesty, I have planted some people out these days, perhaps it is them."

After saying that, he stared intently at Emperor Jiaheng with a subtle look in his eyes.

You know perfectly well what the people you sent out are for.

Isn't it just that you wanted to get some gossip but had no other source, so you spent a lot of money to recruit people (informants)?

Emperor Jiaheng let out an "Oh~".

hey~

Now he really has a film studio!

The court officials, seeing the way the two of them were exchanging glances, all understood what was going on.

This is a real intelligence agency!

Gan!

Your Majesty, what about trust between people?

We are utterly loyal, yet you are so stingy with even this small amount of trust you bestow upon us?

And Sun Wenzhong!

Your honesty and kindness are a lie; in reality, you're full of cunning and scheming.

Pooh!

fraud!

"On the other hand, Emperor Jiaheng truly trusted Shu Jiao. I feel like even if he walked in one day and saw Shu Jiao playing with the imperial seal, he wouldn't doubt her at all."

Youyou added, "When they were gossiping, Emperor Jiaheng served tea to Shujiao, and Sun Wenzhong peeled melon seeds for Shujiao to eat."

"Which minister has ever received such treatment?"

"To Emperor Jiaheng, Shu Jiao was not a subordinate, not a subject, but a confidante. She was a good friend with whom he could gossip, climb over walls, and cause trouble, a friend with whom he had a life-or-death bond..."

That's my like-minded friend!

Emperor Jiaheng wrote in his diary that having only two true friends in his life meant that his decades had not been wasted.

Let's put it this way. Shu Jiao and Sun Wenzhong teamed up to sell Emperor Jiaheng to the concubines for a good price, and Emperor Jiaheng wasn't angry at all; he even shared the spoils with them. That should tell you their status.

[When Emperor Jiaheng was on his deathbed, Sister Shu rushed from her estate on the outskirts of the capital to the palace. Emperor Jiaheng insisted on waiting for her arrival before he spoke about establishing his successor.]

Even on his deathbed, Emperor Jiaheng was still worried and personally instructed Emperor Yuanhe not to force Shujiao or mistreat her; he told him to let her do whatever she wanted...

Ok……

Is it possible that, before Emperor Jiaheng died, his greatest worry was not Shujiao, but Emperor Yuanhe?

The emperors of each generation pondered this.

If one day he dies.

He also had a highly accomplished poison mastermind like Shu Jiao under his command.

He would certainly have to warn the Crown Prince not to act recklessly and not to provoke Shu Jiao's rebellious nature, otherwise the entire Da Kang would be doomed.

If this crown prince is also mediocre.

That would be even worse.

There are only two possibilities: one, he took Shu Jiao with him when he died; two, he moved Shu Jiao with his feelings and got her to take better care of the Crown Prince, but this plan was very risky.

If Shu Jiao shows even the slightest dissent, the future of Da Kang will be difficult to control.

"This kind of person is tough to deal with."

Emperor Kangwu shook his head slightly and sighed, "But judging from his appearance, he is also a man of character."

If it were him, he would definitely take the person with him.

It's better to leave behind the infamy of "killing meritorious officials" than to leave a fatal hidden danger for one's offspring.

"Indeed, it's a good match between the ruler and his minister."

Emperor Zhao sighed.

The emperor has always been a solitary figure.

Is it not a blessing to have a confidant with whom one can entrust one's trust in this life?

"Did Shu Jiao and Sun Wenzhong conspire to sell Emperor Jiaheng to his concubines?"

Emperor Guanglie grasped the key point and clicked his tongue twice in astonishment, "Emperor Jiaheng's concubines also met with bad luck in choosing their consorts."

Which respectable emperor would sell himself out?

Not only did he sell himself out, but he also personally sowed discord, treating the concubines like cats toy, and probably didn't do anything decent all day long.

No wonder she got together with Shu Jiao.

Birds of a feather flock together!

Emperor Hui: ...

"Your Highness~"

Emperor Hui patted the shoulder of the Crown Prince version of Emperor Jiaheng with a meaningful expression, "Can't you just be a normal emperor?"

This is messed up...

Future generations shouldn't criticize him for not knowing how to raise children.

The Crown Prince version of Emperor Jiaheng hesitated for two seconds, then asked, "Then, Your Majesty, I will do my best?"

Emperor Hui: ...

How could he have chosen such an abstract but promising candidate to be his heir?

Now it's too difficult to change.

Based on the fact that he started with three times the territory, even if he wanted to change the crown prince, the court officials would not agree.

He wouldn't agree either!

How annoying!

"Shu Jiao has indeed lived up to Emperor Jiaheng's trust."

Youyou took a sip of water to moisten her throat, and then continued, "My sister Shu's strategist is a successor who has been passed down for three generations, and everyone who has used him says he is excellent."

"Emperor Jiaheng treated them as friends, while Emperor Yuanhe and Emperor Xifeng treated them as teachers, directly creating the peak of the Great Kang Dynasty for a hundred years. It was only because the next emperor, Emperor Shouxuan, went mad in his later years that the prosperous era could have lasted another hundred years."

"During the reign of Emperor Jiaheng, the Great Kang dynasty conquered all its surrounding neighbors and took its first three solid steps towards venturing overseas."

"During the reign of Emperor Yuanhe, the Kangxi Emperor began venturing overseas, promoting the spread of his ideas and free trade, achieving an unprecedented period of prosperity."

"During the reign of Emperor Xifeng, the weather was perfect, the land was favorable, and the people were united. For twenty years, the weather was favorable, all nations submitted to him, he controlled all the good places, and the people were well-fed and clothed..."

[The vast majority of these strategies originated from Shu Jiao.]

[Emperor Xifeng was truly a chosen one. The Empress Dowager was his great-aunt, his mother was a Noble Consort, and he was personally tutored and supported by Consort Shu. He reigned for thirty-two years without any major natural disasters, and his heir was also intelligent.]

[Emperor Xifeng: A feel-good story of rebelling, ascending the throne, and unifying the country? This isn't satisfying at all.]

Emperor Xifeng: If you knew my life, you would also think I was lucky.

Although Shu Jiao is ruthless, she is also incredibly capable. She excels in ingenious strategies, military tactics, people's livelihood, economics, education… and is even well-versed in astronomy and meteorology.

[Also skilled in tomb repair and Mohist mechanical arts. (doge emoji)]

and many more!

Shu Jiao, what is she good at?

Why is there such a string of characters following it?

The emperors stared intently at the scrolling comment, experiencing for the first time in their lives what envy truly meant.

Even if such an all-around strategist is ruthless, they still want him!

"I really want it!"

Emperor Kangwu was so hungry for it.

Back when he first rebelled, he didn't have a single strategist under his command; he relied entirely on brute force.

He had finally made a name for himself when a scholar came to seek refuge with him, but he was all show and no substance. The scholar's scheme nearly cost him his life.

He's suffering!

If Shu Jiao had been standing next to him at that time...

He couldn't even imagine how quickly he could overthrow the Great Qi and establish the Great Kang!

"He's good at economics!"

Emperor Guanglie stroked his chin, his covetous gaze burning with an intense heat.

hateful!

Why didn't Heaven bestow Shu Jiao upon him?

He is the one who is most in need of talent, especially those skilled in economics.

The current Minister of Revenue always tries to fool him with the excuse of "no money," which makes him feel anxious and suicidal every now and then!
