Chapter 765
"The emperor means..."

Xu Liting hesitated to speak.

"I have asked the Supervision Department to issue a secrecy order. If anyone is found to have leaked the secrets of the empire, he will be killed without mercy! As the Minister of the Ministry of Personnel, you are in charge of the officials of the empire, large and small. Therefore, you must rectify the administration of officials!"

“Not only must we ensure the integrity of officials, we must also educate them on patriotism and block the source of secret leaks!”

Lu Hao said in a deep voice.

"The minister obeys the order!"

Xu Liting loudly accepted the order.

"The performance assessment and people's livelihood assessment of imperial officials must also continue and be evaluated comprehensively. If there is a situation where officials protect each other, I will ask you!"

Lu Hao's words became harsh.

"We must be loyal to our duties and be fair and strict!"

Xu Liting was so frightened that he broke into a cold sweat.

"Go down and prepare a detailed plan to submit to the Imperial Cabinet."

Lu Hao waved his hand, indicating that he could leave.

"Wei Chen understands!"

Xu Liting bowed again and retreated.

After Lu Hao finished dealing with these matters, he roughly looked through some of the state affairs documents that had been handled by the imperial cabinet before and checked if there were anything inappropriate in them.
At noon, I also had a working meal with the imperial cabinet ministers.

Chen Yuhuan and Dong Xiaowan came to Chongyang Hall with their son and daughter, and Lu Hao's mood suddenly improved a lot.

The little prince Ji'er was more than seven months old, and the little princess Yaoyao was also more than four months old. The two little guys were crawling around on the dragon couch in the imperial study, making Lu Hao laugh.

After Chen Yuhuan and Dong Xiaowan gave birth to their children, their figures became even hotter, with the charm of a mature young woman.

The two of them looked at each other charmingly, obviously wanting to gain the emperor's favor.

"Your Majesty, now that the state affairs have been taken care of, why not go to Kunning Palace? I have prepared something delicious for you."

Chen Yuhuan said with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I just learned a new dance. Why don't you go to Licui Palace?"

Dong Xiaowan also came over.

"Come on, can't I see your little thoughts?"

Lu Hao stretched out his big hand and took Dong Xiaowan into his arms.

"Your Majesty...then where are you going?"

Chen Yuhuan also quickly came over and held his arm.

Lu Hao happily hugged the two beauties and whispered: "Let's do this, you two will serve me together tonight."

"The Emperor is dead! Ignore you..."

The two beauties were so shy.

"Your Majesty, two girls, Xue Yunxi and Xu Zimo, are here!"

Xiao Xizi's father-in-law reports.

"Look, two more beauties have arrived. Your Majesty is really lucky!"

Chen Yuhuan joked with a smile.

"Even you are laughing at me! I deserve a spanking!"

Lu Hao raised his hand and slapped her twice, which scared the two beauties and ran away.

"Okay, don't disturb the emperor. Our sisters are leaving. Remember to come here at night."

Chen Yuhuan and Dong Xiaowan left with their children in their arms.

It turned out that when Xue Yunxi and Xu Zimo learned that Lu Hao had returned to the palace, they naturally wanted to come in and see him.

Miss Xue, dressed in a white dress, is elegant and refined, with a proud and delicate body that is ready to be revealed, and her beauty is no less than that of the two noble concubines.

Xu Zimo, on the other hand, was wearing a lavender palace dress. She looked stable and mature, but she could not hide the joy and joy shining in her beautiful eyes.

"My little lady pays homage to the Emperor!"

The two beauties bowed slightly and bowed.

Lu Hao looked up and down the two beauties, especially the beautiful and fragrant Xue Yunxi, who was shy and slightly resentful, but it was quite touching.

"Meet the emperor!"

The two girls said again. "Uh...no courtesy! Why are you here?"

Lu Hao came back to his senses.

"I heard that the emperor is back, and the little lady has prepared delicious food for you."

Xue Yunxi handed over a brocade box.

Lu Hao opened it and saw that it was full of delicious pastries. He picked up a piece and threw it into his mouth.

"Your Majesty, why are you using your hands?"

Xue Yunxi pouted and laughed at him.

"Come on, come and eat too!"

Lu Hao waved towards the two beauties.

Xu Zimo seemed a little shy and refused: "I'm not hungry, you can eat."

"By the way, Miss Xu, is your Taoist gym still open?"

Lu Hao asked with a smile.

"The emperor is so talented and powerful, is it necessary for the little girl's Taoist temple to be open?"

When Xu Zimo saw it, he was quarreling with him.

"Okay, I haven't seen you for a few days, and I have become even more sharp-tongued!"

Lu Hao joked with a smile.

"Your Majesty, I just want to ask you today why you declared war on the four great dynasties of the Western Regions? Don't you know that even if a country is large and warlike, it will perish?"

Xu Zimo came up with an aggressive attitude.

"Hahaha... A warlike spirit leads to death? That's a good point! Miss Xu's historical research is very good! However, you are talking about the general empire, not the Chinese Empire."

Lu Hao laughed happily.

"What's different? The emperor launched a war to conquer the Western Regions. Isn't that a sign of bellicosity?"

Xu Zimo continued to ask.

"Hahaha... Miss Xu's words are wrong. The Zhou Dynasty has already deployed hidden weapons in Jin and Shu. Even if I don't send people to the Western Regions, the two countries will not escape the fate of being divided."

"The two countries are in civil strife, their people are in dire straits, and their people are displaced. The two kings are willing to annex their territories to the Chinese Empire because they believe that the empire can help the people of their two countries survive this cold winter."

Lu Hao explained with a smile.

"The leaders of the two countries are willing to merge into the Chinese Empire without any additional conditions? Don't they want to restore their countries?"

Xu Zimo said in confusion.

"After the Jin and Shu kingdoms were invaded and plundered by the Xixia Dynasty, their national strength declined significantly. Coupled with this year's crop failure, the people of the two countries are already in dire straits. Even eating is a problem. How can there be no reason for chaos."

"In fact, even if the Zhou Dynasty did not launch a secret chess game, the Imperial Guards who had not received a penny for half a year would rebel. It is only a matter of time before the two countries collapse."

"Now that I have promised to help them tide over the difficulties and give all the people a piece of food to eat, what reason do they have to refuse?"

Lu Hao spoke eloquently, detailing the actual situation of the two countries.

"Is the situation in the two countries so bad? There is no news from the outside world."

Xu Zimo said doubtfully.

"The two countries are too far away from us, and a lot of news cannot be conveyed. Even I only learned the real situation after going there."

Lu Hao said with a smile.

"In short, the emperor obtained Jin and Shu without any effort. His methods are very clever!"

Xu Zimo still refused to give up.

"How can you say it was effortless? Now that Jin is divided between Zheng and Xixia, and Shu is divided between Yue, Xixia and Zhou Dynasty, I am going to send troops to the Western Regions to drive them away. If we don't fight, won't people die?"

Lu Hao disagreed with her statement.

"The emperor declared war on the four countries in one breath. Aren't you afraid that they will unite to fight against the Chinese Empire?"

Xu Zimo asked again.

"Afraid? What are you afraid of? Not to mention just four countries, even if all the dynasties in the Western Region unite, I can defeat them."

Lu Hao is domineering and full of confidence.
