Chapter 475 Your Majesty, Will You Choose the Kingly Way Or

When Dongfang Longyue appeared in the imperial study, there were already a lot of books piled up in the imperial study. Seeing those books with exquisite patterns, Dongfang Longyue was slightly stunned.

It was the first time she saw such perfectly sealed books, and the paper of those books was particularly white and the words were particularly clear.

After seeing Dongfang Longyue enter the imperial study, Lu Chen put down the book in his hand.

Dongfang Longyue came back to her senses and quickly bowed and said, "Your Majesty, I pay my respects to you. Long live your Majesty!"

Lu Chen smiled faintly, and then said, "Longyue, from today on, you don't have to call yourself a servant anymore. Today you will resign as the editor-in-chief of the Dongfang Newspaper."

Dongfang Longyue was startled, and soon she realized that Lu Chen must have something else to give her, so she quickly said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

Lu Chen continued, "I know you are a person who can't sit still, so I don't plan to let you stay in the palace all the time. I have a very important task for you."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Dongfang Longyue thought to herself that His Majesty really had something important to give her.

Lu Chen glanced at the books on the table at this time, "The contents of these books are all divine knowledge. I plan to open a Daxia Royal Library. You will be responsible for supervising the craftsmen to print these books. Each book will be printed in hundreds of thousands of copies. In the future, you will be the director of the Daxia Royal Library."

Hearing this, Dongfang Longyue was a little confused. Divine knowledge?

Lu Chen continued, "The contents of these books are very important and cannot be leaked for the time being."

"I understand. I will take good care of the library and will not let anyone know any of the books in the library."

Lu Chen said, "Don't be too strict. The books in the library are used to impart knowledge. Those that should be shown to others should still be shown to others. Of course, they are only for our own learning and use."

Lu Chen thought for a while and continued, "I will first let some people learn the knowledge in the books, train them to become teachers, and then let these teachers teach more students."

"In the future, only these students are qualified to access the books in the Daxia Royal Library."

Dongfang Longyue instantly understood what Lu Chen meant.

At this point, Lu Chen said to the maid outside: "Go and call Commander Qin."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

At this point, Lu Chen looked at Dongfang Longyue and said: "I'll ask Qin Yushan to send some Jinyiwei to assist you."

Dongfang Longyue hurriedly thanked him and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty."

At this time, Dongfang Longyue asked with trepidation: "Your Majesty, I wonder if I can read these books?"

Dongfang Longyue was very curious about these "divine knowledge". As a studious person, she also wanted to learn something from these books.

Lu Chen replied: "Of course, the books in the Daxia Royal Library are completely open to my wives, concubines and children. You can read and learn the knowledge in them."

Dongfang Longyue thanked him again and said: "Thank you, Your Majesty!"

Then Lu Chen explained the library to Dongfang Longyue.

After Qin Yushan came, Lu Chen talked to Qin Yushan about the library. It was not until noon that Dongfang Longyue and Qin Yushan left the imperial study.

After lunch, Lu Chen took a short break and then met Zhuge Chongguang.

Lu Chen wanted to ask Zhuge Chongguang what they should do next and let Zhuge Chongguang help him with his advice.

After all, Lu Chen had never done such a thing as unifying the world before and had no experience.

When Zhuge Chongguang came to the imperial study, he saluted Lu Chen, "The old minister greets your majesty, long live your majesty!"

Lu Chen then said, "No need to be polite, come, please take a seat."

The maid in charge of serving in the imperial study hurriedly brought a chair, and Zhuge Chongguang saluted again and said, "Thank you, your majesty."

When Zhuge Chongguang sat down, Lu Chen said directly, "I asked the university scholar to come here mainly to ask the university scholar to help me see what my next step should be more appropriate."

Hearing Lu Chen's words, Zhuge Chongguang instantly understood what Lu Chen meant.

Zhuge Chongguang then asked back: "I, your Majesty, dare to ask, how many celestial beings can you mobilize around you now?"

Although Zhuge Chongguang had heard that Lu Chen had four celestial beings around him, he was still unclear about how much power Lu Chen actually had.

Lu Chen thought for a moment and replied: "At present, there are two celestial beings who can be directly mobilized."

"But there are a total of five celestial beings on my side. If there is a need, they can also come at the first time."

Zhuge Chongguang said: "Your Majesty has such power and has the strength to unify the world."

"But for Your Majesty, the real difficulty is not to conquer the world, but to govern the world. Now the number of officials in Daxia is not enough to manage the entire world for Your Majesty. Once Your Majesty destroys several dynasties, you will inevitably use the natives of several dynasties to manage remote areas for Your Majesty."

Lu Chen naturally understood this truth. He said: "I am indeed worried about these. Once people from other dynasties enter the bureaucratic system of Daxia, then Daxia's weapons and various knowledge will be known to people from several dynasties in the future. There are many people among them who pretend to surrender to Daxia. When they hold Daxia's weapons, they may cause huge losses to Daxia."

Lu Chen has read history books and knows what the remnants of the six kingdoms did secretly after Qin Shihuang unified the six kingdoms.

He very much doubted that the remnants of the previous dynasty would quietly carry out sabotage in secret. With Daxia's weapons in hand, they would be even more harmful when they wreak havoc.

So governing the world is a big problem.

Zhuge Chongguang said at this time: "I have a question to ask Your Majesty. Is it okay?"

Lu Chen said: "If you have any questions, just ask the bachelor."

Zhuge Chongguang asked: "May I ask whether Your Majesty will choose the kingly path or the domineering one next?"

Lu Chen was stunned when he heard this question.

He pondered for a moment and then asked: "Is there any difference between the two?"

Zhuge Chongguang said: "If Your Majesty chooses to be overbearing, when you destroy other dynasties, it will also be the day when the royal families of other dynasties will die. Once Your Majesty has used the sword on the royal families of several major dynasties, this sword will continue to be used in the future. When the time comes, There will definitely be many remnants who will fight against Daxia in the name of resisting the tyrant, and then Your Majesty will need to keep killing until no one dares to resist Daxia. "

"If His Majesty chooses the royal path, he can use deterrence methods to make the royal families of several major dynasties surrender voluntarily. If the royal families of several major dynasties choose to surrender voluntarily, this can alleviate the hatred of the people of several major dynasties towards Daxia to a certain extent. , But this will also lay the foundation for trouble. In the future, some royal members of other dynasties may be determined to restore their dynasties.”

After hearing Zhuge Chongguang's words, Lu Chen thought for a while. After Qin Shihuang destroyed the six kingdoms, he did not kill all the nobles. A large part of them were moved to Xianyang or exiled.

In the end, among the surviving nobles, there were many who thought about restoration. This was indeed a big disaster.

But if they are all killed, it is likely to leave the image of a tyrant to the people of the major dynasties. There is no way to achieve rule through complete violence.

After Lu Chen thought for a moment, he said, "I decided to choose the kingly path."

What Lu Chen was thinking was that after putting the royal families and nobles of the major dynasties under house arrest, if they were obedient, they would be given some benefits. If they wanted to rebel, then they would catch the role models and kill them.

Beating a stick and giving a date can not only maintain one's dignity but also make the people less afraid of him.

And he is different from Qin Shihuang. He is already a pseudo-celestial being. He can live longer than Qin Shihuang. He has enough time to spend with those royal nobles.

He can solve them slowly and one by one.

Lu Chen then said: "In the opinion of the Imperial Master, which dynasty is better to be destroyed first?"

Zhuge Chongguang did not answer directly, but said: "This matter should be easy first and then difficult. The plague is rampant in Daqian and they are at their weakest. It is easiest to kill them at this time, but it is precisely because their plague is still there. It spreads wildly, and once Daxia’s soldiers are infected, it will be a huge disaster for Daxia.”

"Dayue is humble and powerful, but there are barbarians to the north of Dayue who are eyeing her. Some time ago, the Jin Yiwei sent back the news that some kind of goddess had appeared among the barbarians and unified the entire barbarians."

"If Dayue is to be destroyed, the barbarians in the north must be destroyed together. The northwest is so big that the barbarians can escape at any time. It is not easy to destroy the barbarians." (End of this chapter)
