I Became the Legendary Emperor Throughout the Ages After I Started Giving Away My Territory

“Yuan Tiangang, what a good name!

What skills do you possess?

Tell me quickly!

”Lin Beifan said with a smile.

“If you truly have great talent, I will certainly make good use of you!

”“Reporting to Your Majesty, I am but a commoner who grew up in poverty, yet I have a deep love for ‘reading’!

I can recite the Four Books and Five Classics by heart, and I am skilled in all arts including the zither, chess, calligraphy, and painting!

However, my greatest expertise lies in physiognomy!

”“Physiognomy!

”Lin Beifan’s eyes sharpened, and he laughed.

“That truly is a unique skill!

Done well, one is a living immortal; done poorly, one is a swindler!

Then I shall test you to see if you truly have real talent!

”“Your Majesty, please pose your question!

” Yuan Tiangang was very confident.

Lin Beifan pointed to himself: “Me.

What do you see?

”Yuan Tiangang immediately bowed with his hands clasped: “Your Majesty is the Sovereign Star, the true master of ten thousand stars, the destined Son of Heaven.

Sooner or later, you will conquer the world!

That is why, Your Majesty, I have traveled thousands of miles to serve you!

”Lin Beifan laughed and scolded, “Although what you say sounds pleasant, it smacks of flattery!

Disqualified.

I’ll pose another question!

”“Your Majesty, please proceed!

” Yuan Tiangang said.

“What do you think of my beloved concubine?

” Lin Beifan asked, pointing to the silent consort beside him.

Yuan Tiangang glanced at Wang Xiangjun and bowed respectfully, saying, “She possesses the aspect of a phoenix.

Her destiny is extremely noble, a motherly figure to the whole world!

”Lin Beifan shook his head, “Wrong!

My beloved concubine has been alone since her family members passed away one after another from her childhood.

She has lived a lonely and desolate life!

Ordinary people cannot come into contact with her; otherwise, misfortune will occur.

She can be considered the Heaven’s Doom Star!

If she had not met me, she wouldn’t know where her soul would belong in this lifetime!

So, your calculation is not at all accurate!

”Wang Xiangjun thought of her own sorrowful past and couldn’t help feeling bitter.

“Your Majesty, I definitely did not make a mistake!

”Yuan Tiangang said emphatically, “The Consort is indeed of the phoenix aspect, her destiny is truly noble beyond compare!

The reason why her family passed away when she was young is that the phoenix’s destiny is unique, and no one can bear this blood relation!

Once they fulfill their own mission, they will leave this world and be reborn!

But in their next lives, they will be reborn into wealthy and noble families, living a life of peace and prosperity, enjoying wealth and honor!

”Wang Xiangjun couldn’t help but ask, “Is what you’re saying true?

Will all the members of my family be reborn into wealthy households in the next life, living a life of peace and joy, enjoying riches and honor?

”“How dare I deceive Your Highness?

I am willing to guarantee it with my own head!

” Yuan Tiangang assured loudly.

“Ordinary people who come into contact with her will encounter misfortune, and it’s also because of her fate!

Her fate is noble and must not be desecrated!

Anyone who desecrates it will be punished by the heavens, and misfortune will follow them continuously!

”Yuan Tiangang looked up at Lin Beifan, clasped his hands together in a bow, and said, “Only Your Majesty can bear this fate!

Because you are the Sovereign Star, the true master of ten thousand stars, the ruler of the world, and your fate is the most noble, blessed by the heavens!

The union between the two of you is also a match made by the heavens!

”Lin Beifan laughed and scolded, “That sounds like you’re flattering again, only it’s more advanced level this time!

It doesn’t count, I’ll give you another question to test you!

What do you think about this person?

”Lin Beifan pointed at Wu Sangui.

“This…” Yuan Tiangang furrowed his brows, appearing to be somewhat troubled.

“What’s the matter?

Can’t figure it out?

” Lin Beifan said with a smile.

“It’s not that, it’s just that there are some things that are inappropriate to say!

Your Majesty, please step aside, and I will certainly explain everything in detail!

”Lin Beifan looked at the two with a smile and nodded, “Alright!

”The two left the spot and walked about 20 zhang away, almost out of sight, when Lin Beifan asked, “Can you speak now?

”Yuan Tiangang bowed respectfully, speaking earnestly, “To report to Your Majesty, Wu Sangui is indeed a talented general, but at the same time, he is a sanctimonious, fickle scoundrel.

He has a rebellious streak in him!

Once he gains great power, it will foster his ambition, and he will become self-important!

Therefore, Your Majesty, this man can be employed but must never be entrusted with significant power!

”Lin Beifan’s eyes lit up, this guy really had some skills!

Especially when it comes to judging people, spot on!

“Then, what do you think of Minister Yan Song?

” Lin Beifan asked again.

“Minister Yan is a talented individual with outstanding abilities and exceptional talent.

He is indeed a rare talent fit for a king’s counselor!

However, he is also a sycophantic and deceitful official who flatters those above and oppresses those below, using his power for personal gain!

Such a person can be employed in important positions, but one must carefully control the extent to which he is empowered.

Otherwise, it could lead to disaster!

” Yuan Tiangang said.

Lin Beifan’s eyes lit up again!

What a character, he hit the nail on the head again!

“But he is someone who recommended you, and yet you speak of him in such a manner…” Lin Beifan said with a smile that was not quite a smile.

“Your Majesty, he is indeed the person who recommended me, and I owe him a favor!

However, I also believe that as the sovereign chosen by Heaven, Your Majesty is incomparably wise and has already seen through its true colors!

How to use them, Your Majesty has already made a decision in your heart!

Therefore, if I were to conceal anything, it would only displease Your Majesty and cause you to think less of me!

”“You are indeed very capable, and I am convinced!

”Not long after, the two returned.

Lin Beifan smiled and said, “Yuan Tiangang is truly talented, not only skilled in physiognomy but also in divination, astrology, and other arts.

Our country does not have an Imperial Astronomical Bureau, but from now on, it will!

Minister Yuan, from today onwards, I appoint you as the Director of the Imperial Astronomical Bureau, responsible for overseeing all its affairs!

” “Thank you for your great grace!

” Yuan Tiangang was overjoyed.

“Minister Yan, you have recommended two more talents to us, which has greatly pleased me!

Moreover, since you took office, you have been diligent and performed exceptionally well!

”Lin Beifan smiled, “Therefore, from now on, I confer upon you the title of Vice Minister of the Ministry of Civil Service to temporarily oversee all the affairs of the Ministry of Civil Service!

”“Thank you for your great grace!

” Yan Song was overjoyed, having finally been promoted!

The Vice Minister of the Ministry of Civil Service is a third-rank official position!

In the court, that’s considered a high-ranking official!

Moreover, he has caught the emperor’s eye, entrusted with overseeing all the work of the Ministry of Civil Service!

Although it’s only temporary, within the entire Ministry of Civil Service, he holds the highest office and has the deepest experience!

He is completely confident that he will become the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Service and take control of the entire ministry!

Lin Beifan waved his hand: “If you have nothing else, you may withdraw for now!

”At that moment, Yuan Tiangang had a thought and said, “Your Majesty, I’ve heard that you are recruiting Innate masters…”Lin Beifan nodded, “Indeed, that’s the case!

”“May I report to Your Majesty!

”Yuan Tiangang bowed respectfully, “This humble servant has traveled far and wide, and with my expertise in physiognomy, I have made the acquaintance of many martial arts experts.

I can invite them to come and serve Your Majesty!

”“Is that so?

” Lin Beifan was very pleased.

“Yes, Your Majesty!

”Yuan Tiangang said confidently, “My friends are all over the world, and many of them are extraordinary in martial arts!

Although most of them have settled down and cannot come to Great Xia, three or four should not be a problem!

”It was then that Lin Beifan remembered that a remarkable person like Yuan Tiangang would typically have friends all over the world, and those friends were often formidable.

If he could really bring a few Innates, it would be of great benefit to him.

“Then I’ll have to trouble Minister Yuan!

”Lin Beifan said with a smile.

“Tell them that I am in desperate need of talented individuals.

If they can come and serve me, I will certainly make good use of their skills and provide them with satisfactory rewards!

”“It would be their honor!

” Yuan Tiangang replied with a smile.

“Also, Minister, if this matter is successful, I will not let you down!

” Lin Beifan added.

“Thank you, Your Majesty!

” Yuan Tiangang said loudly.

After returning, Yuan Tiangang immediately wrote several letters and sent them to his friends in the rivers and lakes, inviting them to come and serve the Great Xia.

In less than half a month, indeed, three people made their way over.

One of them had a fair complexion and pearly white teeth, with a slender body and a somewhat effeminate manner, dressed like a scholar.

But woe betide anyone who underestimates him.

For he possessed innate strength, his swordplay was tricky and ruthless, and he was also skilled in using hidden weapons.

People in the rivers and lakes call him the Deadly Scholar.

The other two were brothers, broad-shouldered and robust, with imposing statures.

They practiced hard techniques like the Iron Shirt, impervious to blades and spears.

However, they were a bit slow-witted, not fond of using their brains, preferring action over words.

The pair were known as the Heng Ha Generals.

They owed Yuan Tiangang a favor, and with nothing to do and nowhere to go at the moment, they had come here.

Although they were a bit odd, Lin Beifan was very pleased to take them in.

“Three more Innates have joined us, only three short of 20 now.

The dynasty’s prospects are looking hopeful!
