I Have Awakened The Deduction System

223 Imperial Secret Police Force
Content Warning: Racism

After He Chuan’s persuasion, everyone finally realized that the current Zhou Dynasty might not have such a huge power.

“The Wei Nation, the closest to the Zhou Dynasty, is located in the open sea to the East of Goguryeo 1and the other two countries. There’s only a strait between them. The Wei Nation has three islands, with Honshu Island being the largest. The Emperor lives on Tsukushi Island in the southernmost of the Wei Nation. Although the area of this Island can’t be compared to the largest Honshu Island, it’s still comparable to a prefecture in the Central Plains. The Wei Nation and Goguryeo must be conquered and removed from their culture all.” According to He Chuan’s analysis, Qin Yuntian felt it was best to guard against the two countries closest to them.

Otherwise, if there was a problem…

These two countries might attack the Zhou Dynasty.

In addition, the tribes in the outer realms were eyeing them covetously, so they indeed, needed to be on guard.

He Chuan agreed with Qin Yuntian’s idea. The Japanese occupied four large islands, but Hokkaido was actually occupied later. For a long time in ancient times, the Wei Nation also occupied the south-central part of Honshu Island, most of the four countries, and the North of Kyushu Island.

As for the other places, they all had their own independent forces and didn’t belong to the Wei Nation at all. It was only later that the Wei Nation slowly occupied them.

This country wasn’t easy to deal with. The best way was to get things done once and for all. He couldn’t be soft-hearted. The southern part of Tsukushi Island had always been a gathering place for pirates. Almost all those who live by the sea like to go there and choose to open a gap from Tsukushi Island and gradually expand.

It was an excellent method. He Chuan actually disdained the Goryeo 2and the Japanese, but they were just rats. “For now, do as Minister Yan said and send a team of ninth-rank Xiantian cultivators to help. We need you develop a specific plan for reducing the army and expanding the Navy.” Empress Changning waved her hand, indicating for them to leave.

There were no major events in Quanzhou City. After all, the number of enemy troops this time was not too large.

The ministers knew that the Empress wanted to be alone with the Duke, so they left with a good attitude.

“Thank you for your help, Husband. Otherwise, the problem in Quanzhou would have been enough to give me a headache for a while.” Empress Changning picked up the ragdoll tiger on the table and sifted through it.

A sweet feeling rose in her heart.

Even if He Chuan didn’t have any feelings for her, he was already very good to her future child!

She knew this man’s character too well. If it weren’t for the fact that he had a child, He Chuan probably wouldn’t even care about the Zhou Dynasty.

He would not care about what happened in Quanzhou.

“You and I were husband and wife to begin with. Why do you need to be so formal?” He Chuan said with a smile.

Although his personality was rather indifferent, he did have a trace of affection for Empress Changning.

How could he be so heartless?

He actually knew how to be romantic too, but after so many reincarnations, plus the fact that he was a eunuch this time, the feelings in his heart might have faded a little.

Of course, Empress Changning didn’t know these things.

“Tomorrow is the elimination round between the experts. Who do you think has the best chance this time?” Empress Changning ordered the kitchen to prepare three bowls of nourishing soup.

One of them was given to Cai Lian.

“If it’s a battle between two half-step saint cultivators, then the Wudang Sect and the Shaolin Temple have the greatest chance.” The leading figure in the martial arts world wasn’t just a matter of words. Even if a Dark Horse like Abbess Feng Ling appeared, it would still be difficult for her to win.

However, the title of the world’s number one was so moving that it probably wouldn’t end well for a half-step saint cultivator.

They would probably send out saint cultivators.

At that time, it would really be hard to say who would win or lose.

Players like Lia would be eliminated early, and it was a big pass for them to enter the top 16.

That was why He Chuan had warned his disciple not to be arrogant.

“There’s actually something I want to do, but I don’t know if it’s appropriate. I want to ask Husband to help me make a decision.” Empress Changning had the plan to implement, but it was not appropriate to ask the ministers.

She could only let him decide for this matter.

“Let’s hear it.” He Chuan was a little surprised. Since she had asked him privately, it seemed to be something important.

“I’m sure you’ve seen the situation with the Minister of War. Many officials in the court don’t do anything and dawdle all day. They take advantage of their status to take bribes and commit corruption everywhere. Thus, I want to set up a department to deal with them.” Empress Changning didn’t want to see too many parasites in the court.

You can be a parasite, as long as you don’t endanger the Zhou Dynasty, you have to make some achievements.

Not only did they get paid for doing nothing, but they also wanted to take the money of the Imperial court. This way, the Zhou Dynasty would only become more and more corrupt.

“We can set up a specialized military and political intelligence bureau to investigate the court, gather external information, and engage in activities such as reconnaissance, arrest, and interrogation.” He Chuan remembered that on the Blue Planet in his previous life, there had been a department like the Imperial Secret Service in ancient times. The Imperial Secret Police Force was under the direct jurisdiction of the Emperor. There were positions such as commander and warden. Because they needed to travel to foreign lands, they had to be proficient in many foreign languages and customs.

As the military organization of the Emperor, the Imperial Secret Police Force’ main function was to command guards, patrol, capture, and engage in surveillance, interrogation, and other activities.

They were also involved in collecting military intelligence and plotting against enemy generals.

However, they had to grasp it well. They couldn’t let the power of the Imperial Secret Police Force expand infinitely, and when the time came, it would become a tool to eradicate dissidents.

There had to be a limit to everything, or else not only would it make the Imperial Secret Police Force expand, but it would also make the ministers panic and go against their original intentions.

“Husband’s idea is perfect. If the Zhou Dynasty had the Imperial Secret Police Force, the officials would become more well-behaved.” Empress Changning said happily.

Her husband was really powerful, and it would not be an exaggeration to say he was a good partner.

“As the Emperor, you have to look at the world with your own eyes and not communicate through other people’s mouths. It’s not good for you to rely too much on this department.” As a modern person of the Blue Planet, He Chuan was not very familiar with history, but he knew that the change of dynasties was often insignificant.

It gradually became a big deal until it could no longer be stopped.

It had a lot to do with the Emperor.

“I’ll remember what my Husband said. I’ll definitely not let this kind of organization have too much power.” Of course, Changning knew He Chuan’s words were for own good.

Good advice was unpleasant to the ear and beneficial to the action. She couldn’t always listen to the words of the people under her.

Just like when Cheng’an was still in power, he was engrossed in beauty every day and didn’t know that the world was changing and that rebellions were springing up everywhere.

He would lie on the bellies of beauties all day long, dreaming of the prosperity of the country and the peace of the people.

“There is one more important thing. As the Emperor, have you ever thought about why your subjects should be officials?” He Chuan picked up the soup that the kitchen had just delivered and brought it to Empress Changning’s mouth with a spoon.

Why did they become an official?

The people of the Central Plains liked to be officials. It was a long-standing tradition that ten years of hard work was a meritorious service.

“If you study well, you will become an official,” reflected the scholars’ vigorous pursuit of an official career.

If they couldn’t become an official or weren’t successful in the officialdom, they would choose to live in seclusion and never get involved in political affairs.
