The Jagged Empire of Daqin

"Haha!" Ying Chang chuckled, got up from the dragon chair, walked down the high platform step by step, came to Chang Qing, and walked around Chang Qing while saying with a smile: "At the beginning, I knew what you were good at. , a structure appeared in my mind, can you listen to it?"

"The grass people are all ears!" Chang Qing replied with a respectful expression.

Although Yingchang is only 12 years old, Chang Qing has never underestimated Yingchang, and he does not regard Yingchang as a 12-year-old person, because Yingchang does not look like a 12-year-old person, it is like sitting in a seat for decades. Like the emperor, too mature!

"The prevalence of corruption in the Great Qin Empire lies in the fact that there is no supervision. Although the people know that local officials are corrupt, they have nowhere to tell. This has led to local officials and even court ministers acting recklessly. Therefore, I want to establish a Metropolitan Procuratorate to supervise all officials and act on my behalf. Inspect counties, correct punishments and prisons, and purge court councils!"

"The Metropolitan Procuratorate sets up the Capital Censor to be responsible for all the important affairs of the Metropolitan Procuratorate. The Deputy Capital Censor is set up as an assistant. Each county sends a supervisory censor to monitor and strictly investigate corrupt officials in each county. The Metropolitan Procuratorate can impeach the court. Every minister in the hall, including the prime minister, does not need to submit six impeachment memorials, nor does it need to be submitted to the prime minister. It can be directly submitted to the imperial case, and I will personally approve it. How do you feel?" Ying Chang said while walking around Chang Qing.

When Chang Qing heard this, his face couldn't help but move, and he was astonished as a heavenly man!

This is the frame?This is simply a perfect supervision system. Your Majesty really can't look at it with the eyes of ordinary people. This is the idea of ​​a 12-year-old little emperor. It is really a monster!too scary!

"Your Majesty really deserves to be a hero of a generation. His Majesty came up with such a perfect supervision system, which really shocked the grassroots!" Chang Qing began to admire Ying Chang from the bottom of his heart. It's too scary not to admire.

"So, do you think the Metropolitan Procuratorate is feasible?" Ying Chang stopped and asked Chang Qing.

"If this is not possible, there is no such supervision system in the world!" Chang Qing replied solemnly.

"Okay!" Ying Chang nodded, then strode up to the high platform, gently sat on the dragon chair, looked around the officials with a solemn expression, and finally looked at Chang Qing, "Chang Qing Tingfeng!"

Chang Qing immediately bent down and replied: "The grass people are here!"

"I seal you as the second-rank capital censor, with an annual salary of 200 taels of silver, a gold seal and a red ribbon!" Ying Chang said in a serious tone.

Chang Qing was startled and felt unbelievable. He didn't expect that the official title of Du Yushi was so high. Compared with Emperor Wei's third grade Yunqing Order, Emperor Wei was a bit stingy.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, Long En!" Chang Qing responded with a deep bow!

"How about it, am I more arrogant than Emperor Wei?" Ying Chang joked with a smile.

"Compared to His Majesty's second-rank official title and perfect supervision system, Emperor Wei can't compare with His Majesty at all. I believe that His Majesty will lead Great Qin to surpass Great Wei and become the overlord of the Kyushu kingdoms!" Chang Qing also smiled a little. Yi replied.

"I won't talk about these. If I talk too much, I will get bored. The Metropolitan Procuratorate has just been established, and there is no mansion to act for the time being. I also ask Changdu Yushi to wait for a while. Changdu Yushi can also take advantage of this time to find a mansion by himself." Candidates for the deputy capital censor and supervisory censor!"

"When selecting candidates, you must be rigorous. I can count on the Metropolitan Procuratorate to clean up the filth of the Daqin officialdom, but don't do it. In the end, the Metropolitan Procuratorate will also become a fat water yamen, and the deputy capital censor will be the third-rank official. Ducha Yushi is the fifth grade!" Ying Chang said.

Chapter 81 Supplementary Officials!

Fadao reminds you: ask for collection () after reading, and it is more convenient to read again.

"I obey the order!" Chang Qing bent down and replied.

"Next!" Ying Chang looked at Chang Zifei and said.

Chang Zifei nodded, and continued to call out.

Time passed slowly, and a morning morning was abruptly ended at two o'clock in the afternoon. It took a total of four hours, and the stomachs of the hungry Chang Zifei, Yang Ze and other civil servants were growling.

After half a day, the eleven incorruptible officials have all arranged official positions, including Jiang Haiyou and Chang Qing, the list is as follows:

Officials: Left servant Juzheng, right servant Li Ke

Housekeeping Department: Left servant Niu Yicao, right servant Tang Cheng

Ministry of Industry: Minister Jiang Haiyou, left servant Qian Qing, right servant Zhao Fei

Ministry of Punishments: Shangshu Li Mian, Left Servant Lu Dong, Right Servant Lu Ping

Ministry of War: Left Minister Leitong, Right Minister (vacant)

Ministry of Rites: Shangshu Kongwen, left and right servants (vacant)

Metropolitan Procuratorate: Capital Censor Changqing, other official positions (vacant)

For these incorruptible officials, Yingchang gave the greatest treatment, and gave out all the high-ranking officials who could. It has to be said that, except for the Zuo Shilang Juzheng, who is over 50 years old, the rest of the newly appointed officials are all under the age of [-]. Thirty or less.

According to Ying Chang, most people have the ambition of helping the world, serving the country, and honoring their ancestors when they become officials, but their minds, which are gradually lost because of the dirty weather in the court, drift with the tide, and these officials have strengthened their minds. Not only him, but also Chang Zifei, Yang Ze, and Jia Luo were not confused by the immediate interests.

It is precisely because of their firm minds that they are rewarded today. Everyone has sat in the position they have been waiting for for a long time and have become one of the most important figures in the Great Qin Empire.

The sun and the moon fly like a shuttle, time flies like an arrow, time passes day by day, one month in a flash, it is December [-]th in the seventh year of Shengqin!

The blockade of Xianyang City for more than a month has attracted the attention of the people of Shangyang County, but the people can't figure out what happened in Xianyang City. It has to be said that since Shangyang County's prefecture is also in Xianyang, Ying Chang launched a palace change at the beginning. That night, the sheriff of Shangyang County and other officials in Beijing were searched by Chang Zifei.

Officials from all counties in Shangyang County noticed the abnormality, but they didn't know what happened, so they could only guess wildly. Some officials guessed that there might be great changes in the palace, but they couldn't believe it. The court covered the sky with one hand, and was arrogant, and the emperor was young, so he had no ability to initiate a palace change.

In this way, a lot of doubts plagued the county officials in Shangyang County. As time went by, the news that Xianyang City was blocked gradually spread around.

At the same time, on the official road five miles away from Xiguan Daying, a convoy of about 300 people was heading towards Xiguan.

This official road is full of ravines, rough and uneven, it seems that it rained yesterday, the pits on the official road gathered water, the water mixed with the soil, turned into wet mud, potholes, one step down, the mud was several inches deep, making people It is difficult to speed up, and the wheels of the carriage are sometimes stuck in potholes, requiring seven or eight people to push together.

This convoy was exactly Jia Luo’s convoy to the Qiang people. There were thirty carriages, each with three large wooden boxes, and each wooden box was worth 3000 taels of silver. One carriage was worth 9000 taels, and the thirty carriages had a total of 27 taels of silver. Each carriage is pulled by two horses, and the [-] attendants are all dressed up as imperial guards in the palace, and they are responsible for protecting Jia Luo. After all, there are many bandits in Daqin now, and Jia Luo still has ten pieces of silver with a denomination of [-] taels. The ticket is still a silver ticket from the bank of the Great Wei Empire.

There is no way, the Great Wei Empire is the overlord of Kyushu, and his bank notes can be used in all Kyushu.

"General Zuo, how many roads are there?"

Jia Luo, Minister of the Household Department, was riding on a horse in a rough coat. His expression was a little tired, and his hair was a little messy. At this moment, he didn't look like a court official, he looked like a refugee.

General Yang Hu on the left and General Yang Long on the right rode straight side by side. Hearing Jia Luo's question, Yang Hu turned his head to look at Jia Luo, and said in a calm tone, "Master Shangshu, don't worry, there are only five miles left. , should be able to arrive at noon, maybe even have a meal!"

"It's good to have a meal. To be honest, I have been an official for many years, but I have never eaten a bowl of military food!" Jarrow said with a smile.

"Master Shangshu wants to eat, just take care of it!" Yang Long said with a smile on his face.

Seeing that the two men were so calm and not nervous at all, Jia Luo couldn't help asking: "I don't seem to be nervous at all when I see the two generals. Isn't the general worried that the Xiguan garrison won't listen to you?"

Yang Hu stared into the distance, his sharp eyes flashed nostalgia, and he replied with a smile: "Master Shangshu, I have been the commander of Xiguan since I went out with my father. To outsiders, Xiguan is just a pass, but For this general, it is home, and the Xiguan soldiers are the relatives of this general, how can anyone in the world be nervous or worried about going home?"

"Brother is right. Although Xiao Lai and Luo Ming have been commander-in-chief for seven years, in the final analysis, they are outsiders. Since the founding of our army, the Yang family army has been extremely xenophobic. If it wasn't for the demon queen who was in charge of the lives of my elder brother and me, ten Wan Yang's army has already entered Xianyang City!" Yang Long was in high spirits, his tone full of pride and pride.

"Uh..." Jarrow was momentarily at a loss for words, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Be careful what you say!" Yang Hu glared at Yang Long, who shrank his neck and stopped talking.

You can't say this nonsense, otherwise you will sound suspicious no matter how unsuspecting you are.

A group of people continued to drive forward, and at the same time, Xiguan Camp!

In the handsome tent, two middle-aged men about 30 years old are drinking and eating meat in the tent. These two people are Xiao Lai and Luo Ming. Both Xiao Lai and Luo Ming are powerful and rough men. He is not as fat-headed and big-eared as Zhang Wu.

Just when the two were eating and drinking, a scout raised the curtain and hurried in. Xiao Lai and Luo Ming subconsciously turned their heads to look, and saw the scout kneeling on one knee, compiling a report with a respectful expression: "Report Two generals, five miles to the east of Daying, found a caravan heading towards Xiguan, and they seemed to want to leave the pass!"

"Caravan?" Xiao Lai frowned, somewhat puzzled.

"If the general remembers correctly, Daqin seems to have never interacted with the Qiang people, right? Why is there a caravan going out at this time?" Luo Ming looked at the scouts with a puzzled face and asked.

The scout shook his head, "The subordinates don't know either!"

Xiao Lai put down the knife in his hand, wiped his mouth with the silk on the table, looked at the scout and asked, "How many people are there in this caravan?"

"To report to General Xiao, there are more than 300 people in total, and about [-] carriages. These [-] people are all carrying weapons. It seems that it is not easy!" The scout replied respectfully.

PS: "Please recommend, please collect!"

Chapter 82 Lao Li is dead.....

"It's not uncommon to carry weapons. After all, there are many bandits in Daqin now. What I just wondered is that Daqin has never interacted with the Qiang people. Why is there a caravan going out this time? What is the purpose of this caravan?" Xiao Lai Still full of doubts, I don't know the purpose of this caravan.

"I still have to guess? I probably want to do business with the Qiang people!" Luo Ming said firmly.

"It's not like, everyone in Qin knows that Daqin does not allow anyone to have contact with the Qiang people. Even if this caravan can't resist the temptation of profit, they can still go on the mountain road. Why are they targeting us at Xiguan? Could it be that this businessman Aren't you afraid that we will take their property?" Xiao Lai's mind was filled with "?".

Suddenly, Luo Ming's eyes lit up, and Xiao Lai seemed to think of something, the two looked at each other, and said in unison: "Your Excellency!"

Today, only this explanation can understand that this caravan is not afraid of seizing the goods and heading straight to Xiguan. They must be confident and not worried about being seized by them.

"Go and tell the people behind the door that if this caravan shows the Prime Minister's token or the Empress Dowager's token, they will let them go without stopping. Anyone who violates the order will be killed!" Xiao Lai waved his hand solemnly and shouted.

"Obey!" The scout responded, then got up from the ground, turned and left the tent.

After the scouts left, Xiao Lai continued to pick up the knife to cut up the meat, but found that there was not much left, so he turned his head and shouted to the outsider: "One more pot of mutton!"

"Obey!" The guard outside the account quickly responded.

"Come on, let's drink!"

"This wine is not bad, is it a gift from the prime minister?"

"Of course, this wine is nothing ordinary. I have saved it for a long time and am reluctant to drink it. If I can't bear it today, I won't bring it even if I kill it!"

"Haha, let's have a drink!"

The two continued to drink wildly in the handsome tent, drinking bowl after bowl of strong wine, which made the whole body hot, and they could not feel the severe cold of winter at all.

And not far from the handsome tent, many soldiers gathered around a fire, although there was a raging fire, but when the cold wind blew, they were still shivering from the cold, their lips were dry and white, and their stomachs often let out "cuckoo~" slight sound.

When some soldiers saw Xiao Lai's soldiers walking into the tent holding a pot of mutton, their eyes were red with infinite hatred, except for a few of them, everyone who saw this scene was like this.

They are the former soldiers of the Yang family army. Since the three tigers of the Yang family were imprisoned in Xianyang and Xiao Lai became the commander of Xiguan, the treatment they received has formed a huge difference from before. In the past, they had two meals a day, and they ate once every three days. He drank broth once for meat, and during these seven years, two meals a day, no matter how full he was, were all limited, and meat became once every ten days or even once a month, which was pitifully little.

In winter, there is no clothing to keep out the cold, and it is all up to the soldiers to keep warm by themselves. Xiao Lai and Luo Ming don't care about their life or death. In seven years, more than 500 people died of freezing alone, and countless people were frostbitten.

They wished they could hack Xiao Lai and Luo Ming to pieces, but the three generals Yang Cheng, Yang Hu, and Yang Long were still in Xianyang, under the control of the Demon Queen. After so many years of death, none of them knew the news of Yang Cheng's depressing death...

This is exactly what Empress Dowager Min and Wei Huai did. Otherwise, the [-] Yang family troops rioted, it would not be a joke.

"Bros..."

At this time, a soldier walked over tremblingly with his arms folded, his expression was a little sad, and his eyes were red. Seeing this, several soldiers immediately pulled him to the fire to keep warm. Even if he got a little warm work, the soldier was still shaking and even shed tears.

This soldier is not very old, only 20 years old. Seeing this soldier's grief, everyone couldn't help asking: "Xiao Li, what's wrong with you? Aren't you with Lao Li?"

"woooo~"

Upon hearing the word Lao Li, Xiao Li burst into tears, and everyone frowned, feeling a bad premonition.

"Lao Li is dead, Lao Li is dead, woo woo~" Xiao Li's tone was choked, and his expression was full of grief.

Lao Li is Xiao Li's father, and the two are father and son soldiers. Just now, Lao Li was getting old and couldn't bear the double blow of hunger and cold, so he died in the camp. Originally, Lao Li was nearly 50 years old. It was time to leave the barracks and go home, but Xiao Lai and Luo Ming refused, saying that they would die in the barracks even if they died.

"What?" All the soldiers couldn't help but scream in shock!

"Damn it, damn it!"

"Damn Xiao Lai, I'm going to fight him!"

"Bastard, you don't want to die, you don't want to die, you also think about the three generals Yang!"

All the soldiers were filled with righteous indignation, their eyes widened, each wanted to fight Xiao Lai and Luo Ming, but when they thought of the three tigers of the Yang family, each of them could only dare to be angry and dare not speak out!

"Why, why do I have to be so angry, I can't eat enough, I can't drink enough, I can't wear warm clothes, you bastard..." A soldier's eyes were red, tears were shining in his eyes, and his face was full of unwillingness.

"Brothers, bear with it, one day, the general will come to pick us up, and we will definitely avenge this revenge, Xiao Li, don't cry, a man bleeds and does not shed tears, it is not too late for a gentleman to take revenge, one day, We will repay you a hundredfold!" A rational soldier comforted him.

All the soldiers still looked angry, but they didn't speak anymore. These five words of daring to be angry and dare not speak were vividly reflected in them!

"What are you all doing here? Why are you arguing? If you want to get out of the way and disturb General Xiao and General Luo's rest, can you bear it?"

At this time, a well-dressed military officer came arrogantly. When everyone saw this person, they all showed disgust. People were divided into groups, and birds of a feather flocked together. Each group had some rat feces and black sheep. It's the rat droppings among the Yang family's army.

"The mouth grows on me, don't care about your business!" A soldier couldn't help standing up on the spot and yelled angrily. Before doing it, he might not have done this and would have chosen to be patient, but with the death of Lao Li, a breakthrough has been made. His patience was broken!

"Hehe, do you dare to talk back?" The military marquis suddenly became interested, and walked towards the soldier with his head held high, as if he was going to fight.

At this time, more than a dozen soldiers surrounded by the fire stood up, looking directly at the military officer with extremely cold eyes.

Junhou's face changed, and he stopped, "Okay, you dare to provoke me, hmph, you will have something to eat in the future!" Junhou put down his harsh words, turned around and left with a cold snort.

PS: "Ask for favorites, ask for recommendations, ask for rewards, and ask three times a day, I hope you can agree, I will definitely update it, never delay or owe, and explode from time to time!"

Chapter 83 Ben will be back! !

??

He has no confidence or courage to deal with more than a dozen people by himself. The most important thing is that once a fight breaks out, there will be only a handful of people who will help him. No matter how much Xiao Lai and Luo Ming hated these Yang family army officers and soldiers, they would choose to make big things into small things.

Anyway, he is a military officer and their superior. If he wants to punish them, there are plenty of opportunities. There is no need to make things big now. This military officer is still a bit smart.

After the Marquis left, all the soldiers sat down again, concentrating on making fire and comforting Xiao Li.

A quarter of noon!

Fireworks went up in the Xiguan camp, and the stomachs of all the soldiers were growling. At this time, five hundred steps away from the main entrance of the Xiguan camp, Jarrow's convoy was approaching the main entrance of the camp. , the closer it is to the camp, the more nervous Jarrow is. After all, whether the plan can be realized depends on whether Xiguan can be successfully stabilized.

On the other hand, Yang Hu and Yang Long were extremely calm, with a smile on their faces.

Xiguan!I'm back!

"someone is coming!"
