Chapter 991: Chapter 991: Enlightened Monarch

Zhulan turned her body to the side, "I think next year we can find a way to let Chang Lian go out."

Zhou Shuren was a bit sleepy, "We'll talk about it when the time comes, it's not urgent now."

Zhulan then said, "Speaking of which, the Emperor's birthday is coming up, will there be a big celebration?"

Zhou Shuren shook his head, "The Emperor has long said that there won't be grand celebrations. Speaking of which, the Emperor has never held a grand celebration for his birthday since his accession."

"To tell the truth, the Emperor is really a rare enlightened monarch."

"Yes, he hasn't been muddle-headed so far. However, it's not easy being the Emperor, especially when dealing with the noble families and having to balance court politics. To have cleaned and consolidated the royal power to this extent already is quite impressive."

What's more, he even has a forward-looking vision, investing in the Navy, researching technology, these are all correct moves.
