Keeping the High Lords in Line

The Resurrection of Sanguinius was of paramount importance, so Han Mingxuan oversaw the entire process.

It's to guard against those four guys in the Warp.

Before Guilliman Resurrection, Abaddon led his men straight into Macragge.

In addition, the Chaos Gods all contributed to Guilliman's journey to Terra after his Resurrection.

As you can imagine, the whole process was incredibly crazy.

Not to mention that the Great Angel now Resurrection is one that all Four Gods desire.

However, for the Chaos Gods, this is a different issue altogether.

To them, Han Mingxuan was a Dark King could walk among humans, possessed reason, and stood entirely on the side of Humanity's Fate.

They're completely out of their minds to cause trouble for Han Mingxuan over something like this.

Moreover, the other party had just taken Sanguinius' soul and Essence from them.

Unless you've been beaten senseless by the other party, you wouldn't go looking for a beating.

Of course, Han Mingxuan was unaware of all this, and what he was about to face was not Chaos, but humanity.

This time, instead of tearing through space to reach the Throne Room, he walked to the entrance of the Throne Room.

Then he saw Trajann Valoris patrolling the area.

"Trajann Valoris, it's been a long time," Han Mingxuan said with a smile.

"Honorable Father of Night, it has been a long time."

Is it your turn to be on duty today?

"That's not the case, Your Excellency. I've been waiting for you here."

"Wait for me?"

"Yes, this is the Chancellor's order."

Sinleech's orders?

"What happened?"

"It's about the Senate and the High Lords. The Chancellor is currently preparing a secret plan, a plan known only to you and the Chancellor Emperor."

"The preparation of this plan consumed a great deal of the Imperium's resources, which harmed the interests of the High Lords."

"How interesting. These Greed Vermin have been greedy for so long that they think it's their due."

"Your Excellency, please calm your anger. Although they Greed, they remain loyal."

"I know that, Trajann Valoris, of course, but in this matter, their integrity is just as important as their loyalty."

What does the Chancellor mean?

"The Chancellor Minister intends for you to go to the Senate. Once you arrive, he will convene a meeting with the relevant personnel."

"Firstly, to explain the necessity of this plan, and secondly, to help you gain a foothold in the eyes of the Imperium leadership."

"No problem. I'll go see the Emperor first, and then we'll go together."

Thank you for your understanding.

You're too kind.

Upon entering the Throne Room, Han Mingxuan only saw the mummified corpse sitting on the Golden Throne.

"It's a bit deserted here today."

Originally, the Golden Throne itself suffered irreversible systemic damage due to the awakening of the Dark King.

However, since the Black King Kindling Plan was launched, the systemic damage to the Golden Throne has gradually disappeared.

Surprisingly, even the Emperor could relax a little.

"Old Han, you're here."

"If you call me that again, I'll blow the High Lord to smithereens and your throne up with me."

"..."

The Emperor on the throne remained silent for a long time.

"I'm no different from him."

"That's a huge difference. Back in the 30K era, he was at least somewhat human-like, but now you're a god."

Do you know what "divine person" means?

"They are far from man but very close to God; as for how close, you and I both know."

The moment the Emperor rises from that chair, he becomes a god, and humanity is doomed.

"As expected, Your Emperor. I always thought you'd calm down once you sat on that toilet."

"But it seems that even if you sit on the toilet, you won't calm down."

To reiterate, even if Emperor in the Great Crusade era were to use his humanity to commit some earth-shattering and ruthless acts, Han Mingxuan would still have time to make amends.

In today's world, that would be absolutely impossible.

Once the Emperor decides to use his thunderous human emotional intelligence to do something...

It will definitely create a huge problem.

"Then what should I do?"

"You don't need to do anything, just sit there and occasionally shine a little."

"..."

The Emperor fell silent once again.

"I am a tool of humanity."

"Right now, your greatest function as a tool is to shine and perform miracles. Of course, after I've dealt with the major issues, I have no objection to what you want to do to your sons."

"Could you please..."

"Do you want Terra to become the next Eye of Terror?" Han Mingxuan warned the Emperor mercilessly. "I've been holding back my anger since I came here; don't force me to do this."

Just kidding. I was already exhausted from tutoring at 30k, so tutoring at 40k would be like starting the universe from scratch.

"Sigh! Okay."

"Don't think about those things. Once you've burned the Black King almost to ashes, you can handle it yourself."

Thank you for everything you've done for me and for this world.

"What I did has nothing to do with you."

That damned Huangpizi, we must be extremely careful with our words, otherwise once we get involved with him, it will definitely be a lot of trouble.

"Oh, by the way, Trajann Valoris told me about the High Lord when I came in."

Go for it, I believe in you.

"Since you've put it that way, then I won't stand on ceremony. But don't worry, I definitely won't kill them."

The High Lord was greedy, but his loyalty was genuine.

Most of the High Lords of Terra during the 40k era died from overwork.

Han Mingxuan has many ways to deal with them in this regard.

Han Mingxuan arrived at the Senate very quickly, and the news of the Father of Night's arrival was quickly known to the High Lords Senate.

After all the High Lords and Terra officials were seated, Han Mingxuan sat down with Chancellor Sinleech.

"Your Excellency the Chancellor, and Your Excellency the Father of Night, we have the right to know the truth about the recent frequent and large-scale mobilization of Imperium resources."

Han Mingxuan looked at the Fabricator-General.

It's quite rare, really, that the Fabricator-General, who usually doesn't leave the Adeptus Mechanicus, actually appeared here.

"Please don't misunderstand, Father of Night; what's here is my Advanced Mechanicum Avatar."

Han Mingxuan nodded; that made sense now.

"The Chancellor has presumably already informed you of the relevant matters; just follow his instructions."

"What the Chancellor said was just polite talk in official circles," the Inquisition representative said, his gaze towards Han Mingxuan extremely dangerous.

This was almost an unconscious act by the Inquisitor; their profession required them to do so.

"Alright, alright, let's skip all that pointless bureaucratic banter and get straight to the point about how to distribute the profits?"

"You are defiling the Holy Terra! You are defiling the Senate!" the current Ecclesiarch exclaimed angrily.

"Stop joking, isn't this what you're all counting on? Tell me, how much do you want?"

When things really came to this point, not one of them spoke up.

Their main purpose in inviting Han Mingxuan to this meeting was to use their power and influence to elevate this newly emerged Father of Night.

Looking at the scene before him, Han Mingxuan recalled his time on the Old Nostramo.

The nobles of that time were like that too.

However, we can't just change the form without changing the substance; we need to find a new approach.

"Since no one else is going to speak, then I will."

Immediately afterwards, Han Mingxuan threw a very thin document onto the table.

All eyes were drawn to the document, and then they saw its title.

They gasped when they saw the headline.

Leave Policy for Administrative Personnel in the Holy Terra Region

Mr. Han is awesome!

Sinleech shouted in his heart.
