Daqin: Assist Zulong at the beginning and become a public enemy

Chapter 510
Chapter 525
"No matter what, we must make preparations in advance. His Majesty Si Cheng has already made a decision. The two members of the royal family are in the Ministry of War; the two members of the old Qin family in Guanzhong are in the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Punishment; the three recommended by the younger nephew are accepted by His Majesty. There is one each for the three departments of rites, officials, and engineering; two people from the Meng family's military department, one from the Ministry of Rites, and one from the official department; the three recommended by the old prime minister, His Majesty also agreed, and there is still one each of the three departments of rites, officials, and engineering."

"Three people, isn't it a little less three people?" Hu Wujing asked a little strangely.

Yao Jia on the side couldn't help being taken aback when he heard Hu Wujing's idiot words.He discovered once again that the Minister of Rites, who had been imprisoned by the emperor for several months before, was really a bit sloppy.

"Lord Hu, Prime Minister Feng only recommended three people. If you recommend six people, what would His Majesty think? What would Prime Minister Feng think?"

Although he was very dissatisfied with Hu Wujing's second brother, Yao Jia still patiently explained that everyone was brothers in the same trench.

Hu Wujing's face turned blue and white.

What Ma Xing didn't even ask, was actually asked by himself.Hu Wujing really felt ashamed.Fortunately, no one is entangled in this issue.

Originally, all matters such as the punishment and prison of the Great Qin Dynasty were decided by his Tingwei Mansion.And the Tingwei Mansion was decided by him, Yao Jia, with one word, what a pleasure that was.

Now that the Tingwei Mansion has been abolished, although he, Yao Jia, is the Secretary of the Ministry of Punishments, and it seems that the power of the Ministry of Punishment is heavier than that of the previous Tingwei Mansion.In the past, the Tingwei Mansion could only be used in Guanzhong or Xianyang, and not many people in the counties below it knew about the Tingwei Mansion, not to mention that at that time, the Tingwei Mansion could not control the ground outside Guanzhong or Xianyang.

But this time the Great Qin reformed the official system, not only the center of the imperial court was changed, after the six departments of officials were fully organized, the fifty prefectures and hundreds of counties in the Great Qin Dynasty would be followed, all of which would be reformed.

Except for the retaining of the three positions of county guard, county lieutenant, and county supervisor, the county chief was abolished, and a new administration department was added to manage the taxes, money, and food of each county treasury, and the chief secretary was in charge of local moral education and education, and managed local supervision projects. The Supervising Department of the Ministry of Justice, the Supervising Department of the local government and the examination of lower-level officials, and the criminal officials in the counties under the Ministry of Punishment are called judges.

The rank of judges in each county is the fifth rank, and they are placed under the county guards of the third rank, who are responsible for the arrest, punishment, prison and education of a county.Each county will also set up a county magistrate to supervise the punishment of a county.

Judges, judges, chief secretary, etc., under the leadership of the county guard, they are responsible for the management of various places, but they are not only responsible to the county guard, because their immediate superiors are the heads of the six departments, and everything needs to be registered. Report to the Six Departments for inquiries.

In this way, the situation where the county guards are in sole control of power is avoided.

It stands to reason that Yao Jia should be happy that the power of the Ministry of Punishment has greatly increased.But if the left and right hands are not my own, I am afraid that no one will be happy.Ying Hao, the left servant of the Ministry of Justice, was originally Zhongcheng of the Zongzheng Mansion, a typical son of the royal family, representing the emperor and not to be offended.Fang You, the right servant of the Ministry of Punishment, had always been the leading figure of the nobles of the old Qin family, and only the emperor followed him.

In this case, how could they be willing.

After a night of banquets, Li You hurried out after washing up.

Although Ying Gang has been canonized as the crown prince, his mansion has not yet been built, and now he is still temporarily living in the original mansion.

Li You is already familiar with the road here, but it is a pity that Ying Gang was not there when he came, so Li You could only go to see Li Jeen first.

In the main hall of the backyard, Li You was holding tea and secretly thinking about what to say.

It has to be said that Li Jey, who is married as a woman, is indeed very different from before. She is so graceful and luxurious that people dare not look directly at her.

Seeing Li You's pensive and worried look, Li Jealously laughed.

"Why is my brother so depressed? Does anyone dare to displease my brother?"

Li You smiled awkwardly, looked at Li Jey in front of him and said helplessly: "Since my father passed away, I really feel powerless to support Li's lintel by myself."

Although Li Jealous has been living in the mansion and rarely leaves the house since she got married, she still has some understanding of the outside world.

She had also heard about the reform of the three provinces and six ministries that Ying had just designed in Fuchu before.

But seeing my brother like this, the reform must not be very satisfactory.

"Sister, I don't know. This time the officials of the Li family are adjusted. Although my officials of the Li family are still in their original positions, the power in their hands has been greatly weakened. To put it bluntly, although your brother and I are now Minister of the Household Department, but if His Majesty intends to restrain me, I will be a poor commander without any power in my hands."

A look of surprise flashed across Li Jue's face.

She even sent someone to congratulate her brother on becoming one of the six ministers. She thought it was the support of his brother-in-law Ying Gang, but she didn't expect that it was not a good thing, but a bad thing.

Soon she understood that her elder brother was definitely not just coming to complain at this time.

After thinking about it in my heart, I looked at Li You and asked, "What does brother mean?"

Li You spit out all the words in his stomach.

"My meaning is very simple, let my sister find a way to gain some important positions for my Li family in the various ministries and departments in front of my brother-in-law."

Li Jue suddenly showed a hint of helplessness when he heard this.

Li You asked him for something, logically she should find a way to solve it.

But Li You didn't know his current situation at all.

Seeing that Li Jey was not in a hurry to reply, Li You looked at the younger sister in front of him and saw that there was no one around, and immediately asked: "My younger sister has been in the mansion for a while, how dare I ask His Highness the Crown Prince how he treats my younger sister?"

"Respect each other as guests."

Li You's heart skipped a beat, and when he looked at his sister in front of him, he felt something bad in his heart.

The word "respect each other like guests" means that the husband and wife have a good relationship from a good point of view, but from a bad point of view, it means that the relationship between the husband and wife is average.

"Is there nothing else?"

Li You was so anxious that he couldn't speak, and looked at his younger sister who wanted to speak but couldn't speak.

"To tell the truth, brother, except that His Highness stayed with me on the night of the wedding, she was either in the study or in Yu Ji's room at other times."

Li You was shocked when he heard this.

Forty or fifty days have passed since Yinggang got married. I thought that my sister was very popular with the prince in the mansion, but now it seems that everything is my own wild imagination.

The younger sister's move is extremely important to their Li family.

After all, if the prince ascends the throne in the future, Li Jey will become the first empress of Daqin.

But now, she has just entered the mansion, and she has been so neglected.

Li Jey didn't dare to express the anxiety deep in her heart before, but now seeing her brother, she felt helpless and could only vomit it all out.

"Brother, my sister is incompetent and can't help you with anything."

Li You was confident at first, but now he can't say it.

This is true of my younger sister, so it must be difficult to get any news about the prince from her final inquiry.

"So, isn't my Li family in great trouble?"

Li Jey shook his head and said: "I guess the prince is not such a ruthless person, and my Li family will definitely make his future position more secure as a helper. He must have done this because he wanted to beat us with this matter, let us learn a lesson."
