Chapter 226: Esdeath, the future captain of the th division.
However, in order to ensure a crushing victory, he would definitely let his woman come forward to take charge, but the person who actually took action must also be guilty.

The Imperial Equipment Users in the Night Raid Team and the Hunter Team are very good candidates for leadership. After all, the Imperial Equipment Users can completely crush ordinary people.

As long as you don't encounter masters like those in the Royal Fist Temple who have been trained since childhood, there is basically no possibility of problems.

Besides, people with conscience like Najeshita are happy to do this kind of thing, not to mention when it is justified.

By recruiting them, not only can we gain a group of thugs, but we can also complete the task at the same time. Why not do it?

In addition, after accepting them, Reed can get a list of people with conscience from Najeshitan, which will make it easier to avoid paralysis of the administrative agency after cleaning out Ernest and his gang.

Therefore, recruiting a night attack team is a must for Li De, and the sooner the better.

Because only by holding these people in hand can we ensure that there will be no accidents in this mission.

As for why only Fubuki and Tornado were allowed to follow tonight instead of showing up directly.

There are two reasons. The first is that Najeshitan went to the revolutionary army's base and has not returned yet. The other is that Li De does not have to think about his own appearance to recruit people, but plans to go in the name of the little emperor.

Li De did this not because he had no confidence in his personal charm, but because the imperial power had been too deeply rooted in the hearts of the people after the empire had lasted for a thousand years.

Let alone a thousand years, the Qing Dynasty lasted less than three hundred years. By the end of its reign, anyone who wanted an ordinary person to cut off the braid at the back of his head would be considered asking for his life.

It is not difficult to imagine how deeply rooted it has been in people's hearts over the past thousand years.

Therefore, it is definitely much easier to recruit people under the guise of the little emperor than just going there like that.

Take Najeshita, who has already rebelled, for example. As long as the young emperor realizes his mistake and promises her to get rid of the ministers and restore order, she will never blindly follow the revolutionary army to gamble on that illusory victory.

Isn’t it nice to be loyal to the empire?
The previous rebellion was simply because the ruling class headed by Minister Ernest was too corrupt and dark, making it unbearable for people with conscience to stay there, so they had to flee.

If the emperor is really willing to clean up corruption and restore order, no one who is neither stupid nor crazy will choose the latter between being loyal to the empire and joining the revolutionary army.

This is not nonsense. Look at the so-called ambitious people, didn't they all emerge at the end of the dynasty?

Therefore, as long as the empire itself does not give these people opportunities, they can only hide their ambitions.

Therefore, the identity of the little emperor is much more useful than imagined. To put it bluntly, Li De, with the identity of the little emperor, directly threw out several slave contracts, and it is estimated that some people in the night attack team are willing to sign them.

In the feudal era, the emperor was the orthodox empire and represented righteousness, so there was a saying that if the emperor wanted his subjects to die, they had to die.

Since there is a simple way to use, why should Li De complicate the problem?

As for whether Najeshitan would suspect Li De, it didn't matter.

Because even if she had doubts, she would never bring them up given her intelligence.

No one cares more about the betterment of the empire than these conscientious officials.

"Sid, are we going to the palace now?" Claire asked Reed.

"Let's go, but we're just going to test the waters tonight." Li De nodded and said.

"Master, why don't you just replace the emperor?" Beta asked.

"We have to see what the emperor looks like first. What if he is a man who is about to die of old age? Also, I have to give you some time to understand the power institution that you will lead in the future." Although Li De knew that the young emperor was currently in power, the women did not know.

Another point is that although Li De intended to directly launch the plan to replace the emperor and seize the supreme power of the empire.

But ruling an empire is never something that can be done by one person alone, and it requires assistance.

However, Li De did not trust the person in charge of the current power structure at all. After all, the fact that the empire had become like this showed how rotten those people were.

There may be so-called good people, but this goodness is mostly relative.

In a word, it all depends on the support of peers.

It is precisely because Minister Ernest is so rotten that other talents are relatively better.

But in general, Li De would only trust people he knew without knowing them well enough.

Who else could Li De trust more than his own woman?

So Li De planned to let his woman take power.

Of course, this will definitely require gradual progress. You can't reach the top right away. After all, how can a person of unknown origin enter the center of power and reach the top?

However, it is necessary to let the women divide their respective territories in advance, because with their strength, it is not a problem for them to use some means to enter various power institutions and secretly control the operations.

"That's right! Then how does the master want to divide it?" Yita, who had been silent all this time, asked.

"The imperial finances must be handed over to Gamma, just as the imperial intelligence agencies will inevitably be handed over to Zeta. As for the remaining power agencies, we need to discuss them first. What do you think?" Li De then looked at everyone.

The women who heard this looked at each other. In fact, not everyone was interested in power.

Take Beta for example, she is a literary girl who prefers novels.

However, the women also knew that the division of power could not be refused.

If each department doesn't have its own people to look after it, big problems will arise if one is not careful.

After all, ordinary people can't expect them to be loyal to their masters. They are only loyal to power and money.

"Sid, I will be responsible for the appointment and dismissal of officials." The first person to speak was definitely Claire, and Alpha would not argue with her on this point.

"Alpha, what about you?" After Claire spoke, Beta asked Alpha, who had been silent all the time.

"I won't participate." Alpha had already received Reed's promise at this moment, so he had no intention of staying in this world after the mission was completed, and naturally he had no intention of participating in the division of power.

"Not participating?" Beta looked at Alpha in surprise.

"Beta and Alpha are responsible for the appointment and dismissal of officials in the world where we were born." Reed explained.

After listening to what Li De said, the others immediately understood what was going on.

It has to be said that the girls were very envious of Alpha at this moment. After all, this was a promise made by Reed himself.

Apart from Claire, she was the only one who received this promise.

As for Claire, she didn't look unhappy at all.

Because Reed has already communicated these to her. Who told her that in the real world, Claire couldn't marry Reed openly? It was better to let Alpha take the position than to let Alexia take the position.

"So that's how it is, congratulations!" Gamma sincerely blessed Alpha. As for herself, and even other girls, do they want this kind of wedding that belongs to them?

The answer is yes, but this does not prevent us from offering blessings to our friends.

As for a wedding that belongs to them alone, she and they will work hard to get it.

"Thank you, Gamma!" Alpha replied with a sweet smile.

"Master, let me take charge of agricultural affairs." Beta said immediately.

Li De couldn't help but be a little surprised to hear that Beta chose agricultural affairs.

"Beta, are you interested in agriculture?" Reed asked.

"Not really, but I can make my contractor interested." Beta replied with a smile.

Beta himself is actually not interested in agriculture at all, he just chose it randomly.

Anyway, she herself had no plans to take charge, but planned to find a slave to learn management later. With the contract in hand, she really didn't worry about her slave causing any trouble.

After Beta took the lead, the other girls who had not yet made a choice started to choose at random.

When Delta spoke, she said, "Boss, I want to be in charge of military affairs."

"Delta, I have an ideal candidate for military affairs, you can change him!" Li De, who had been agreeing, shook his head unexpectedly.

"BOSS, who is it?" Delta looked at the people present and asked.

"A person who doesn't have a contract yet, but she has such potential." Li De said immediately.

The person that Li De was talking about was none other than Esdeath!

To be honest, Esdeath's potential is really huge. If she is given some resources, her strength will probably rush to the top three in the blink of an eye. Even Claire may not be able to suppress her.

It is precisely because she has such potential that Li De intends to accept her and make her one of the captains of the Shadow Guard Thirteen Team.

The extra person must be Claire. Reed plans to let her serve as the captain of the Zero Guard.

"Are there people from this world who don't have a contract yet?" Delta asked curiously.

"Well, you will know later." Li De didn't say much.

Seeing that Li De was unwilling to say more, no girl continued to ask.

After Delta was chosen to be in charge of police affairs, the assignment continued.

Soon, all rights were allocated.

Two hours later, in the Emerald Palace at the highest point in the center of the empire, in the little emperor's bedroom, after Beta snapped his fingers, the little emperor fell on the bed and fell asleep.

"I didn't expect that he was actually a puppet emperor. But it's good this way. As long as we get rid of the minister named Ernest, General Budd, the leader of the royal guards guarding the Emerald Palace, and the guards and maids who take care of the little emperor's daily life, no one will be able to find any flaws." Claire said to Reed.

"Indeed, it is all thanks to the minister Ernest that we can do it so easily. If it weren't for him who made it almost impossible for outsiders to contact the little emperor in order to control him, our cleaning work burden would probably increase a lot." Li De said with a smile.

"It's a pity to lose such a loyal minister like Bud." Alexia said immediately.

Although Bud is very loyal, as a member of the royal family, Alexia naturally appreciates such loyal subjects the most.

"Precisely because he is loyal enough, we cannot keep him. After all, once he finds something wrong, he will definitely investigate relentlessly, so the best way is to get rid of him from the beginning." Alpha certainly knew that Bud was very loyal.

But unfortunately, the only person he was loyal to was the royal family, so he was destined to be sacrificed.

"He is going to die. I guess Ernest will be so happy." Beta couldn't help but say.

"It's a pity that Ernest doesn't know that he can only be happy for a while, not even for a day." Ipsilon said with a sneer.

During the two hours, she learned about some of Ernest's evil deeds from many people.

Even at this point, Ipsilon could no longer control the murderous intent in his heart.

"The most important thing is to choose the right person to replace Bud, even if it's just a transition." Miyano Shiho said.

"It doesn't matter. There happens to be a former general in the night attack team who can be used as a transition. Her qualifications are more than enough." When Li De was planning to get rid of Bud, he had already thought of the candidate to replace Bud.

After Li De has sacked the imperial capital and has all the power in his hands, he will no longer be hindered from employing his own women. At that time, he can free Najeshita to lead the army to deal with the next rebellion.

Why did Li De confirm that there must be a judgment, because the people-friendly policies promulgated by Li De later would inevitably affect the interests of nobles in other cities.

It would be strange if the nobles who have been exploiting the people were willing to accept and implement such a policy, as all kinds of chaos would definitely arise at that time.

So whether it is Najenda or Esdeath, there will be plenty of battles to fight.

In fact, the people-friendly policies that Li De was going to promulgate later were not pleasing policies. They were merely to abolish some existing unreasonable taxes in order to reduce the burden on the people.

As long as the people can survive, they will naturally not rise up in rebellion.

Unfortunately, this policy to ease the internal pressure of the empire would not be recognized by those arrogant nobles, let alone accepted, so civil strife was inevitable.

Of course, for Li De, it would be good to fight. After all, if he wants to rebuild the world, he must first destroy it and then rebuild it.

This is the law of history that no one can violate.

After all, it is impossible for Li De to come up with enough slave contracts to control every person in power.

Therefore, the best way is to clean out the corrupt nobles and replace them with a group of people-friendly officials.

Then, every few dozen or hundreds of years, an internal cleansing would be carried out to promptly remove some corrupt external personnel, so that the empire could remain prosperous.

As for why it is external personnel, it is because the people who signed the contract are under the control of the contract and cannot fall into depravity.

After all, when these people fall, it means that Li De can no longer maintain his moral bottom line.

On the other hand, as long as Li De maintains his moral bottom line, he doesn't have to worry about the contractors below doing anything horrific.

"Master, it's almost dawn and we should leave!" Mao Lilan on the side suddenly reminded.

"Oh, it's already this late! Let's talk while walking. Who will deal with Bud tomorrow night?" Li De asked the girls.

"Boss, let me do it! I just want to see how far the imperial weapon users in this world can go." Delta said immediately.
