[The Zhenguan Dynasty's Unlucky Prince, the Emperor's Nemesis!]
My father is Wei Zheng, the greatest scold in history!
I, Wei Xian, transmigrate as his eldest son and bind to the [Spendthrift Ten-Thousandfold Cashback System]. My father calls the emperor a “foolish ruler” in court, while I squander our money in the back courtyard until it turns into mountains of gold and silver!
Li Shimin: ???
Were you father and son sent by Heaven to be the bane of me?!
Together, father and son become the emperor's two fiercest critics in court!
Wei Zheng: “Your Majesty! You are neglecting your duties for frivolous pursuits! This is unbecoming of a sage ruler!”
Wei Xian: “Your Majesty! This plan of yours is both expensive and idiotic! It wastes money and effort without a thought! Give me the money, and I'll get three times as much done with half the budget!”
Li Shimin: (╬▔皿▔)╯ “I... Where's my blade?! Guards! Throw these two troublesome old fogies out!” But to preserve his dignity as a “wise ruler,” Li Shimin can only grit his teeth and put up with them! He even assigns Wei Xian an impossible task: build a money-losing canal? Collect worthless old grain? Develop a desolate, miasma-ridden wasteland? If he fails, his father can be punished! But what happens? The canal becomes a golden waterway! Concrete roads make neighboring states green with envy! Old grain saves people from disaster, earning him the title “Savior of Ten Thousand Families”! The miasma-ridden land becomes the starting point of the Maritime Silk Road?
Li Shimin clutches his chest. “Ugh... I'm furious! But... this kid really is damn talented! Quick! Get me some heart-saving pills!”
The highest level of scolding an emperor: scold him into becoming an emperor for the ages!
