If you are caught by me, I will make you the imperial regent!

"cough cough cough cough"

Thinking of this, Horus coughed violently again.

Fortunately, this was Terra, and there was already an anti-psionic device. Otherwise, Horus' resentment towards Malcador would surely have caused a storm in the subspace, attracting the attention of the four evil gods.

Guilliman was doubtful of Horus's words.

He pointed to the mountain of documents around him and asked: "You haven't had a break since taking office, and you have been working intensively [-] hours a day?"

He let out a long sigh.

Brother, it’s okay if you lie to yourself, why can you also lie to me?

You haven’t finished processing last month’s files yet!

"It's hard to explain, but Terra really has not been penetrated by the subspace." Horus puffed out his chest and looked at Guilliman intently. "Don't you believe me in this regard?"

Guilliman was stunned.

He was moved.

A moment, just a moment.

If the former high-spirited Horus stood in front of him and said that Terra had not been penetrated by the warp, he would definitely believe it.

At that time, Horus was the pride of the empire!

But the current image of Horus is too poor, and he looks like he might lose his temper at any time. Guilliman, at least, cannot completely believe that Terra has not been penetrated by the subspace.

Horus saw Guilliman's suspicion, and he sighed: "To be honest, I called you back this time just to ask for your help. I heard that you are very insightful in handling government affairs, so I wanted to ask you for help." Teach me how to handle government affairs.”

Horus had given up struggling.

He realized that it was impossible to rectify the empire's government affairs system by himself, and he needed the help of other brothers.

He thought of Guilliman first.

He knew the origins and experiences of all his brothers well. He knew that Guilliman had been nurtured by his adoptive father, a planetary archon, since he was a child. When he grew up, he actually ruled Macragge for several years and governed Macragge. Gotta be organized.

In terms of political talent, Guilliman must be top-notch.

"How to handle government affairs?" Guilliman was a little confused. "You let the people below handle simple government affairs for you, and you only handle the more important matters yourself, and then you make instructions that you think are reasonable. That's all."

Guilliman doesn't find it difficult to deal with government affairs. What he finds more difficult is personnel appointments and anti-corruption.

Horus sighed: "I know all this. I want you to teach me how to handle a large amount of government affairs in a short period of time."

Guilliman looked at the mountains of documents around him and asked belatedly: "Are you dealing with too many government affairs? Why don't you give more to the people below?"

The people below will then distribute it to the people below, and the distribution will continue like this. No matter how many documents there are, they can all be divided.

"These are documents that I must handle myself." Horus shook his head, "Well, you work for me for a day, and I will study beside you."

"Is this necessary?" Guilliman was a little confused. "And if these documents have to be handled by you yourself, I can't let you die. I'm not the Imperial Regent."

Horus's eyes lit up: "Do you want to be the regent of the empire?"

In an instant, he felt suddenly enlightened.

If Guilliman is willing to be the Regent of the Empire, why should he learn government management? Wouldn't it be enough to just leave all the work to Guilliman?

Why is he in pain now?

Isn't it because he took over the post of Imperial Regent from that old cheater Malcador?

If you know your mistakes and can correct them, there is no greater good!

If he could remove himself from the post of imperial regent, the pain would be gone!

After he is freed from pain, even if he does nothing, he will get great happiness, and the key to freedom lies with Guilliman.

With both the Emperor and Malcador absent from the Empire, only Guilliman was able to take over as regent.

Guilliman was slightly startled when he heard Horus' words.

He seemed to see the green light from Horus's eyes.

Frankly speaking, it's a bit scary

"No, why would I covet your position as regent?" Guilliman shook his head, "Only you can do this position of imperial regent, other brothers will not obey me." He did not want Horus to misunderstand him.

Horus stretched out his hands to hold Guilliman's. He seemed to be reflecting on his past, and his voice became richer: "My brother, after I stayed in the position of regent of the empire for a period of time, I found that I have no compatibility with politics. , I am not suitable to be the Imperial Regent at all!"

Guilliman was stunned.

Horus said sadly: "As you can see, there are so many documents piled up in my office that I don't even have time to deal with them. If this continues, there will definitely be big trouble in the empire!"

Guilliman nodded in agreement.

Not processing documents for a month or two is actually nothing to the behemoth of the empire, but if things go on like this, something will definitely happen.

"The empire is my father's hard work. I don't want him to see an empire in ruins when he comes back."

"But I really tried my best!"

Horus showed a heartbroken expression.

"I don't want to be a war commander now. I just want to ask my father to remove me as regent and let Malcador come back."

"Since this period of time, I have stopped blaming myself all the time. I found that I was really too arrogant in the past and thought that the officials of the empire were useless. But when I sat in this position, I found that I could do everything. not good!"

Guilliman nodded slowly.

He had previously felt that Horus' attitude of contempt for the government system and imperial officials was very bad. Horus even said that he would kill all the tax officials in the empire. Now Horus realized that he was wrong. This is a very good thing.

"No one is perfect, my brother." He comforted, "If you can repent in time before it leads to a big mistake, the Emperor will be proud of you if he knows it."

While comforting Horus, he silently turned on the recorder.

It's rare to see Horus looking downcast, so record it quickly, otherwise you won't have it if you miss it.

Horus waved his hand, he took a deep breath, and his energy suddenly gathered.

"You don't need to comfort me!"

He said sternly.

"I am the Imperial Regent, the largest bureaucrat under the Emperor, and the helmsman of the Empire when the Emperor is away!"

"The fault of the government system is mine alone!"

“Official corruption is my fault!”

“It’s also my fault that I can’t finish my work!”

"It's even more my fault for being arrogant!"

"Wrong, wrong, wrong!"

"How wrong I was!"

"I'm not worthy of being the Imperial Regent!"

A series of "wrong" words left Guilliman dumbfounded.

What kind of edict is this?

Is this still the Horus I know?

Guilliman was a little confused.

"Guilliman! My brother!"

At this time, Horus felt that the atmosphere was in place.

He straightened his back and said with a solemn look: "I am ashamed of the Emperor and have no shame to continue to serve as the Regent of the Empire. Now I appoint you as the Acting Regent of the Empire!"

He stared directly into Guilliman's eyes and asked cautiously:

"Are you willing to accept it?" (End of Chapter)
