Reincarnated as a boss tyrant in the game

Ultimately, faced with the deteriorating security situation in the imperial capital, Lodesa, the tyrant Sauron decided to take extreme measures. He no longer sought compromise and balance, but resolutely chose iron-fisted governance. He ordered a massive slaughter, killing off more than half of the adventurers in the entire imperial capital, and ruthlessly expelled those nobles from their fiefs who resided in the capital.

This series of tough measures, while briefly restoring stability to the imperial capital, sowed the seeds of destruction for Sauron's empire.

It was precisely because of Sauron's tyranny and cruel methods that the surviving adventurers harbored resentment. They gradually gathered into an army and waged guerrilla warfare against Sauron's troops everywhere. And those nobles who were driven back to their fiefs did not give up. They responded to the call of the rebel army and actively participated in the struggle against Sauron.

These forces gradually converged into a force to be reckoned with, and ultimately became the last straw that toppled the tyrant Sauron's rule.

Sauron's empire, under his iron fist, maintained a superficial stability for a short time, but it sowed deep resentment and dissatisfaction in the hearts of the people. These negative emotions, like undercurrents, eventually converged into a torrent, pushing Sauron's empire into the abyss of destruction.

The governance of the adventurer community does indeed need to be re-examined and planned.

After all, most adventurers come from commoner backgrounds, and they carry the hopes and livelihoods of ordinary people behind them.

Therefore, Sauron needs to be more cautious and meticulous in dealing with the issue of adventurers.

If the problems brought about by the huge adventurer group can be properly resolved, the number of security cases in the imperial capital, Lodesa, will be reduced by at least half.

In contrast, the governance of the landed nobles is relatively easier. Just regularly pick out a few typical examples and severely punish them as a warning to others. This is enough to keep the other nobles in line for a period of time, not daring to act rashly.

State Minister Neumann faces numerous affairs every day, the most troublesome of which is governing the imperial capital, Lodesa. Even a shrewd and capable minister like him is only勉力支撑 (barely managing), striving to maintain superficial peace and stability. If he wants to carry out deeper reforms or actions, he will inevitably touch the interests of many interest groups and be met with countless counterattacks and obstructions.

Therefore, Sauron needs to seek progress in stability and gradually promote various reform measures to ensure the long-term peace and stability of the imperial capital.

As for the Purple Melon Planting Competition, just leave it to Yasso to handle it at that time.

Sauron had just stepped out of the Amber Palace threshold when he was gently pulled by the arm by Empress Maria, who led him to her bedroom. Now that the Empress Dowager and the Emperor had both nodded in agreement to adopt Sauron into her name, as his future mother consort, she naturally needed to show some gesture to show her support and love for this new imperial son.

Family support is certainly important, but as she is about to become Sauron's mother consort, she hopes to personally provide this imperial son with substantial help and support. In Empress Maria's heart, Sauron is not just an adopted prince, but also the child she has long awaited, and she is willing to give everything for him.

"Eileen..." Empress Maria whispered.

"Your subordinate is here..." The female head attendant, Eileen, immediately stepped out of the shadows upon hearing this, respectfully bowing.

"Go to the treasury and take out that box of gold coins and send it to Sauron's bedroom." Empress Maria instructed in a soft voice.

"Yes!" Eileen had obviously already received instructions, and was only coming out to go through the motions at this time. Before long, several guards in silver armor carried a heavy box to Sauron's presence. This box would return to his bedroom with him, and the two guards would also become Sauron's personal guards, protecting his safety.

Looking at the scene before him, Sauron couldn't help but feel a surge of warmth in his heart. He quickly asked, "Mother Consort, what are you doing?"

Empress Maria gently took Sauron's hand and smiled: "You're going out to handle affairs, whether it's going to the State Affairs Office or developing the Royal Manor, how can you not have money as support? Although I have lived in the deep palace for a long time, I also know that everything outside costs money. So here are ten thousand gold coins, take them for emergency use first. If it's not enough, I'll find a way. I still have some savings from the estates and jewelry that the late Emperor and the Grand Empress Dowager bestowed over the years..."

Seeing this, Empress Maria hurriedly reached out to help Sauron up, comforting him in a gentle tone: "Good child, now that you are my child, I will naturally fully support you. Although I have lived in the deep palace for a long time and may not be able to directly provide you with much help outside, if you need anything, you can go to your second uncle, Rezel, and he will do his best to assist you."

Sauron nodded in thanks, understanding in his heart that he had almost no one to rely on in this palace except for Empress Maria.

His two young younger siblings obviously couldn't provide him with substantial help, so he really needed to rely on the power of this cheap second uncle, Rezel. However, before that, he was more concerned about the number of estates Empress Maria owned.

As far as he knew, his cheap mother consort seemed to own three Royal Manors. These estates were not only a symbol of her status, but also an important pillar of Nicholas's daily funding.
