Empress: Your Majesty, please respect yourself, I don't want to be promoted

After asking Luo Xiaoyu to send Xia Yan away, it didn't take long for the sky to darken, and then a spring rain with the lingering chill of the end of winter slowly fell, soon covering the entire Luojing City in hazy misty rain .

The faint fragrance of plum blossoms floated into the room through the window sill, and for a while, the room was full of fragrance.

Lu Chen, who was alone in the room, sat on the edge of the bed and enjoyed the rain scene in the courtyard, while his mind was running fast, constantly sorting out his thoughts, and thinking about the grand plan of becoming an immortal.

"Oh, backstab three times in a row."

When he thought that the conditions for becoming an immortal that could be achieved easily, after being backstabbed one after another by the Holy King Cangming, the Empress and Xia Yan, it became so difficult now, Lu Chen felt so depressed that he wanted to vomit blood.

These people are actually better at acting than one another. Until the last moment, they can't tell the difference between loyalty and villainy, they can't tell whether they are strong or weak, and they can't distinguish good from bad.

He obviously wanted to kill himself so that he would be dismissed from office, but the Holy King Cangming, who seemed to be a powerful minister seeking to usurp the throne, turned out to be a loyal minister, and the Empress, who seemed to be just a puppet emperor who could be manipulated by others, turned out to be a mastermind behind the scenes. Xia Yan, a corrupt official despised by everyone, turned out to be a good official loved by the people.

Three consecutive flying dragon riding face crystals exploded, and his mentality almost exploded.

It can only be said that this world is poisonous. It is obvious that every time he looks at it, he is sure of winning, but every time there is a shocking reversal at the end, which is self-defeating, so angry that he almost died on the spot.

"It can't go on like this."

Lu Chen frowned slightly, and the empress's attitude towards him was clearly different from others when the three divisions were interrogated, and his head suddenly ached.

"The risk of speaking officials is not absolute. When the emperor is fatuous or mediocre, speaking officials are naturally a high-risk occupation, but if the king is an extremely wise and peerless king, the situation is reversed. And after these three incidents, the empress has a lot of trust in me. It is estimated that it has reached the point where it cannot be shaken. I am afraid that it will not be effective to rely solely on the way of officials, so we have to change our thinking."

To be honest, he was a little puzzled why the Empress was so kind to him.

Although when the Demon Empress was in power, the whole court acquiesced that she was just a puppet emperor for transition, waiting for the King of Qin to take her place, and he was the only one who stood up and supported her despite the disapproval of the world. Righteousness and courage, on the surface, it seems that they really value love and righteousness.

It is understandable that the Empress gave him generous political rewards for this. But trusting him so unreservedly like now is a bit too much.

Lu Chen always felt that he was just talking about it after all, and nothing changed after all.

And he wasn't the only one who sincerely supported the Empress.

The one who really sent charcoal in a timely manner and regained the imperial power for the Empress was the Holy King Cangming.

They sent troops and exerted their strengths, and they personally ran thousands of miles to help the Empress seize power. Afterwards, she never cared about power, and willingly accepted the Empress' orders, helped her eradicate disobedient ministers, and ran around for her to secure the throne. Go, even hand over the military power, let all the Cangming army in Luojing obey her orders, and let her completely control the government.

With such a great kindness, Lu Chen felt that it was not too much for the Holy King Cangming to let the empress marry him in situ, and thus become the emperor of the Great Xia, or even become a Taoist couple for eternal life.

Of course, the Empress is not mean to the Holy King Cangming, and the rewards and honors given to him are completely worthy of this credit. But Lu Chen always felt that it was almost meaningless.

I don't know what the empress thinks, leaving aside the Holy King Cangming who should have promised her with her body, but treats him like a talker who can only play tricks.

Isn't she afraid that the Holy King Cangming will be jealous, feel dissatisfied, and even turn his face and seize power to force her to submit?

Lu Chen didn't believe that the Holy King Cangming came all the way here, he just wanted to support the Empress, and he had no other ideas.

The Holy King Cangming is not the empress's own father, how could he be so selfless?

What's more, the empress is still a super-beauty, but at the age of sixteen, she has already revealed some peerless charm, plus the unrivaled majesty possessed by the supreme king who controls the world, she will definitely become the top level that can drive countless men crazy in the future stunner.

Just now is already quite difficult to control.

If it weren't for the immensity, he would have to bow down under the Empress's Scarlet Jade Dragon Robe even if he was as determined as he was, would the Holy King Cangming not be moved?

Of course, it is also possible that the empress and the holy king of Cangming have already formed a Taoist couple, but they have not made it public.

After all, there are also rumors that the Holy King Cangming often stays in the Zichen Palace until midnight before leaving, saying that he is assisting the Empress in handling the government affairs, but who knows the truth?

This is also the thinking of quite a few people.

After all, Lu Chen is just a time traveler, not an all-knowing person. Naturally, he doesn't know that although the Holy King Cangming is not the empress's father, he is closer than her own father. He has been protecting her brother since childhood.

But no matter what, if Lu Chen wants to be dismissed from office, he must not get around the Empress.

And in this world where the individual is supreme, the empress who can realize the Tao from "the people are more important than the emperor" must be a generation of wise emperors.

Therefore, if he didn't change his mind in time and still thought of offending the emperor simply by being a troll, he wouldn't be able to expect to achieve the system's conditions in this life and become immortal in situ.

After sorting out the status quo, Lu Chen began to think about feasible strategies.

"Since the emperor himself is unwilling to dismiss me, let's find a way to make her have to compromise, find a way that not only conforms to the rules of the system, but also forces her to dismiss me."

Realizing this, he hurriedly followed this line of thinking. About a quarter of an hour later, his eyes suddenly lit up, and the corners of his mouth raised slightly. Obviously thought of something.

"In other words, although the Great Xia Empire is different from the countries in ancient Chinese society, it is still a feudal dynasty in essence, and since it is a feudal dynasty, there must be some general laws."

Thinking of this, he suddenly stretched his body very relaxedly, lying on his side on the couch, his eyes narrowed inexplicably.

"For example, the law of dynasty cycles..."

Although Lu Chen thinks his political ability is mediocre, he still knows some historical laws.

The ancient feudal dynasties in his original world basically could not escape the three-hundred-year cycle of dynasties, and their manifestations were roughly the same in all feudal dynasties.

Of course, there are supernatural powers in this world, including special existences such as monks, evil spirits, demon clans, and half-demons. The law of dynasty change is much more complicated than that of ancient feudal dynasties without supernatural powers.

But in essence, the two still have many similarities.

"The Great Xia Empire has lasted for thousands of years, so it must have accumulated many ills."

Thinking of this, Lu Chen laughed completely, very heartily.

"For the future of Great Xia, and for the stability of hundreds of millions of people, as a person with lofty ideals who take the world as my own responsibility and have the great ambition of governing the country and the people, I work hard for the sake of Great Xia, and strive to find the way to make the country rich and the people strong. It’s reasonable to eradicate long-standing abuses, right?”
