Protect Our Clan Leader

Chapter 1687: Chapter 121: Shouzhe Has Been Waiting for the Little Demon Sovereign for a Long Time (Asking for Monthly Tickets)_4

“This…”

Wang Fugui wasn’t as pessimistic as her.

He pondered for a moment and said, “Actually, Chuanan isn’t necessarily that bad. You see, the sunlight here is abundant, and the rainfall is nourishing, which is quite suitable for developing agriculture. The only problem is that there are frequent typhoon weather conditions, and we need to cultivate some wind-resistant, flood-resistant low-growing plants.”

“Fugui, explain in more detail,” Yun Mengyu’s eyes lit up as she said.

“Our Immortal Dynasty may look glamorous, but in reality, it faces both internal and external troubles. One side faces the constant threat of the Red Moon Demon Dynasty, while the other must resist formidable external enemies like the demons beyond our borders,” Wang Fugui said seriously. “If we want to reduce pressure or solve problems, we must start by strengthening ourselves. To be strong, we need to continuously optimize aspects like money, grain, resources, education, population, population quality, and technological development.”

“Chuanan State’s current problems are mainly twofold: one is chaotic management with serious local division, and the other is the poverty and backwardness of the ordinary people.”

“As long as we can find a suitable development path for Chuanan State…”

Yun Mengyu began to feel drowsy as she listened: “Fugui, just do what you want to do, I’ll listen to you.”

“Alright then, let’s start with a five-century plan. From different directions such as the education system, livelihood system, economic system, military system, etc., strive to completely change the backwardness of Chuanan State within five hundred years,” Wang Fugui began to enthusiastically elaborate on his ideas, “We can refer to the Divine Dynasty or our Wang family’s Artifact Spirit System to manage some cumbersome tasks…”

“Wait a minute? Five hundred years?”

Yun Mengyu suddenly woke up, shocked by this number.

She blinked her moist eyes, looking conflicted: “Does it really have to take that long?”

“Mengyu, infrastructure development is certainly not something that can be achieved overnight,” Wang Fugui said earnestly, “The Chuanan State is vast and larger than our Dongqian, how can it be done all at once? Besides, we are both endowed with Unparalleled Heavenly Child talent, and living for three or four thousand years in the future is inevitable. A mere five hundred years will pass in the blink of an eye.”

In an instant, Yun Mengyu’s tears were about to fall.

Is she really going to live with the title of “Princess of Chuanan” for another five hundred years?

…

At the Immortal Dynasty’s side, as the two were plotting their local governance, at the same time, an unprecedented crisis was quietly approaching the Great Qian Land.

The Da Qiyan Palace.

Dingqian Hall.

Today, it was the day of the Small Morning Meeting.

In the hall, on the steps, a slightly smaller chair was placed to the slanted lower corner of Emperor Longchang’s throne, which was Emperor Zi’an’s seat.

Although he has been supervising the country for a long time and has made considerable achievements, his prestige in the court increases every day, still as long as he does not ascend to the throne, the Great Qian Land’s emperor remains Longchang, and naturally, he cannot sit on the throne.

However, this is just a formality, and it does not significantly impact Emperor Zi’an’s authority.

Because it’s a Small Morning Meeting, the number of officials present is relatively small, mainly senior ministers of Grade Four or above.

Led by the Minister, these important court officials stand solemnly, and every now and then someone throws out a proposal, prompting everyone to start discussing, refuting, or voting on the proposal, ultimately decided by Emperor Zi’an.

Actually, these proposals have mostly been discussed in small groups within the imperial study beforehand, but due to some controversy, they require further collaborative effort in the court meeting, while also following procedure.

Unless it involves political struggles, it’s impossible to stage any surprise attacks in such court meetings.

Currently, Emperor Zi’an is growing in influence, and the Great Qian Land’s power is reaching new heights. The ministers tend to be quite united on many state affairs, even if there is some debate, it is mostly around feasibility, potential issues in actual implementation, possible negative impacts, required financial and material investments, and specific candidate selections, among other detailed issues.

One proposal after another passes by, and time passes for more than an hour.

At this point, an official from the Ministry of Guest Relations reported, “Your Highness, the envoy from the Red Moon Demon Dynasty, Chao Guangyuan, has been in our Great Qian Land for half a month. Although our Ministry of Guest Relations has followed full protocol in hosting the envoy Chao, not neglecting them, they still caused strong dissatisfaction, insisting on meeting Your Highness at the court before stating their purpose. Currently, he is waiting in the side hall.”

When mentioning Chao Guangyuan, Emperor Zi’an frowned deeply.

The Great Qian Land and the Red Moon Demon Dynasty have no relations and are essentially considered opposing camps. If someone secretly infiltrated the Great Qian Land from the Red Moon Demon Dynasty, it’s normal to catch and “unintentionally” kill them.

However, an official envoy visiting through formal channels is different.

As the saying goes, “When two countries are at war, an envoy cannot be killed,” and an official envoy represents the dignity of their nation. Moreover, the Red Moon Demon Dynasty is not to be trifled with; the Great Qian Land must host them even if begrudgingly.

“Your Majesty, it might as well meet him,” said Wang Shizhao, renowned as the “Little master,” clasping his hands in respect, “A mere envoy from the Demon Dynasty can’t stir up any waves on our Great Qian Land’s territory.”

“Very well, summon the envoy,” Emperor Zi’an said coolly.

Having been in high position for a long time, he had naturally developed an aura of authority even without anger.

“Summon, Chao Guangyuan of the Red Moon Demon Dynasty, to meet.”

As the sharp call fell silent, shortly thereafter, a servant led Chao Guangyuan into the court.
