I clearly wanted to be a tyrant, but how did I become the greatest emperor of all time?

What the hell!

My brother-in-law is so brave!

Isn't this scientific?

Little Weizi continued, "In General Rand's memorial, he also attributed the credit to Your Majesty! He said that he had to thank Taoist Minghui and the new inspector of the armory, Tang Yan!"

what?

How is it related to Minghui?

Isn’t Tang Yan my brother-in-law?

Why are they mixed together?

Li Tian remained calm and continued to listen to Xiao Weizi:

"Your Majesty, General Rand said that if it weren't for the court's new weapons, he wouldn't have been able to put down the rebellion so quickly!"

New weapons?

"It is the new type of weapon, the musket barrel, that Lord Tang ordered the armory to manufacture after he took office!"

and many more!

Isn’t Tang Yan a playboy?

How come he can also make musket barrels!

how so!

Li Tian was completely dumbfounded.

Little Weizi continued, "The thunder pill refined by Taoist Minghui can not only cure heart disease, but is also extremely easy to explode!"

"After Lord Tang Yan discovered this, he thought of using the power of the thunder elixir explosion to shoot arrows."

"Lord Tang has also discovered that instead of using arrows, directly firing pointed bullets will have a greater killing power!"

"After Lord Tang invented the musket barrel, he sent it to Binhai by sea for General Rand to test."

Li Tian was completely dumbfounded.

He suddenly remembered the chemical stories he had heard in modern times.

The most successful research of the King of Bombs is also a drug that can treat heart disease.

Could it be that the thunder pill refined by Minghui is the same as that thing?

No, no?

So Tang Yan and Minghui asked for Lei Dan just to make musket barrels?

Li Tian’s jaw almost dropped!

Why are there so many traitors around me?

Taoist Minghui, you look so sage-like, how could you stab me in the back?

And Tang Yan!

Isn't he the recognized dandy idiot in Kyoto?

How come after taking charge of the armory, he became a capable minister?

Li Tian then remembered that in this era, people were judged by the imperial examination.

Tang Yan was not good at studying for the imperial examination, so he was judged to be a fool!

But this idiot is actually a genius in weapons manufacturing?

Li Tian just felt a headache.

Little Weizi continued, "Huaihe City is strong. Originally, Pan Dazhuang, the thief, wanted to rely on the strength of the city to defend it to the death."

"But I didn't expect that General Rand had already prepared. He ordered his men to bury Lei Dan under the city wall, and the wall collapsed in an instant!"

Li Tian's hands and feet were cold.

When it comes down to it, it seems to be all my fault.

The recipe for Lei Dan was given to Minghui by me.

Later, I also gave Lei Dan to my ministers.

Tang Yan’s armory inspector was also appointed by me personally.

He was also the one who appointed the Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Canal.

It seems like all of this is caused by me?

At this time, the system also pops up to finish off the enemy!

[The national affairs system is starting! 】

[The river transport has been cleared, and the Great Zhou's national fortune is +10000 points! ]

[Warm reminder: The national fortune is skyrocketing this month, please continue to work hard to ruin the national fortune! ]

Angry!

It really increased by 10,000 points!

You guys!

Tang Xiaoren, Lander, Zhang Yingchai, Tang Yan, Minghui.

Li Tian recorded all these people in a small notebook.

Wait!

I will definitely take care of you!

However, what is worrying Li Tian more now is how to prevent the country's fortune from continuing to rise!

The drawbacks of river transportation are one of the three major drawbacks of the Great Zhou Dynasty!

This is a problem that emperors of all dynasties have tried their best but have never been able to solve!

But now it was easily solved by Li Tian!

A century of accumulated problems are eliminated in one go!

There will definitely be greater benefits!

Now the country's fortunes will continue to rise!

We must find a way to stop the country's fortunes from continuing to rise!

Li Tian’s premonition was indeed good.

From Kyoto to the Huai River, a large number of memorials were sent to Binhai like snowflakes.

These are all important issues that the court ministers are unable to decide.

Every issue concerns the country’s destiny!

Li Tian painfully discovered that such a war to quickly pacify river transportation brought too many benefits to the Great Zhou Dynasty!

There are so many that he needs to rack his brains to stop the Great Zhou’s national fortune from soaring!

The first memorial was from Jia Renyi, Grand Secretary of the Cabinet.

What Jia Renyi was asking was how to deal with those grain merchants in Kyoto who were hoarding goods.

In addition, Jia Renyi also mentioned that the grain merchants learned the news from the steward of the Six Wise Kings.

Although the Sixth Wise King's steward suddenly committed suicide in a bizarre manner.

However, Jia Renyi still asked in his memorial whether he should continue the investigation.

and many more!

How could I forget this imperial uncle!

This imperial uncle is the one who is wholeheartedly holding the imperial court back!

Can’t investigate further!

This imperial uncle must not be touched!

Li Tian finally understood!

Father-in-law, brother-in-law, and elder brother-in-law are all unreliable!

These guys will never help me ruin the country's destiny!

On the contrary, it will help the country's fortunes improve!

At critical moments, our family members are the ones to rely on!

To ruin the country's destiny, it's up to our own relatives!

Sixth Prince!

My dear uncle!

You are the one who really wants to overthrow my kingdom!

He is the only one who works diligently to do bad things!

We must protect this imperial uncle!

"Little Weizi!"

"The slave is here!"

"Give the cabinet a decree!"

Li Tian said as he walked:

"The Sixth Prince is my uncle and the pillar of the country!"

"How can you frame a pillar of the country based on these groundless rumors?"

"There must be some misunderstanding in the river transport case."

"Tell Jia Ci Fu to stop nagging me. We can discuss this matter after I return to the capital."

Xiao Weizi recorded Li Tian's will.

Li Tian added: "Also, what Jia Cifu said about the grain merchants hoarding goods."

"The laws of the Great Zhou Dynasty don't say that these merchants are breaking the law!"

"Even if it's the imperial court, you can't just arrest people!"

"Otherwise, who would dare to do business in Kyoto in the future?"

"The court must also follow the laws of the Great Zhou!"

“It’s wrong for these merchants to hoard goods, but they are all bankrupt.”

"Tell Jia Ci Fu to release those grain merchants."

Just after Li Tian stamped the imperial seal on the imperial edict, the system finally popped up a prompt:

[Tolerating relatives of the emperor, the Great Zhou’s national fortune: -2000 points! ]

[Womanly kindness, Great Zhou national fortune: -2000 points! ]

Four thousand points!

Finally it has dropped a little!

Xiao Weizi asked his capable eunuch to immediately deliver Li Tian's order to Kyoto.

Looking at Li Tian, Xiao Weizi couldn't help but sigh.

Your Majesty is indeed Your Majesty!

Based on this evidence alone, even if we find the Sixth Prince guilty, it would be difficult to convict him.

After all, it’s just hoarding grain, and the Sixth Prince is your Majesty’s uncle.

Your Majesty is really patient!

Only when the Sixth Prince relaxes his guard will he be exposed.

This is the only way to completely eradicate it!

It is indeed the art of emperors!

Thinking of this, Xiao Weizi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

Who else in this world can escape the clutches of His Majesty?

The next tricky thing was Rand's memorial.

Although the river transport rebellion was quelled, how to deal with those who participated in the rebellion remained unsolved.

That’s tens of thousands of canal workers. If their families are included, the number would be more than 100,000.

Of course Rand did not dare to make a decision rashly, so he also submitted a memorial.
