Dark clouds loomed over the capital city in the afternoon. The coldness of the breeze indicated the chance of heavy rains. A carriage made its way to the Royal Palace. It was Harsha returning from the port city of Viskhapatnam.
He was pretty dissatisfied by the things that happened in the port that clearly showed a lack of supervision for corrupt nobles. The law and order wasn't strong enough to handle these cases. Harsha needed strict measures to fix this problem.
Time was required to set up a proper judicial framework for the Empire that would be equally just for the commoners, poor, rich, and nobles. He couldn't really form a guide out of thin air and call it a day by issuing an edict. He needed to formulate rules for it.
"Viswa, monitor the shipyards and road building closely. Take strict action if any cases of malpractice are found."
"Understood! Also, we have bought some muskets as ordered from some mercenaries using Alfonso's connection!."
