The Chu Dynasty has stood firm in Yangzhou for thousands of years. It has become increasingly prosperous and strong without any sign of weakening. The people's customs have developed, the government has been stable, and the people can live and work in peace and contentment.
This is the Chu Dynasty in the eyes of other countries.
In fact, although the government was stable, when the new emperor ascended the throne, there were endless internal and external troubles. The royal family attempted to seek power and usurp the throne, the southern barbarians on the border practiced witchcraft, and the pirates from the East attacked the navy. This has never stopped for thousands of years.
When the late Emperor Meng Qianyin was still alive, he worked diligently and resolutely for the people. He eliminated countless rogue parties, opened ports that had been closed for two generations, conducted trade with foreigners in Xiangzhou, and left countless gold and silver for future generations.
