Chapter 61: Mess

He is the Taishou of Qinzhou, and he has just arrived, if the Qindi government has reached this level, it is actually very serious.

After leaving the tea shop, on the way to Taishou Mansion, Xiao Yuan's brows never stretched.

Seeing this, Liu Yuzhi moved the corners of his mouth, and said tentatively: "My lord, along the way, what I have seen and heard can be summarized into four problems: bandits, bullies, the government has no credibility, and the people are fierce. ”

"These are just what we see on the surface, but in fact, the internal affairs of Qindi are more serious, and the army, I'm afraid the same is true."

Xiao Yuan added, and said: "These need to be completely eradicated, and a certain amount of deployment is also required, there are many things, and they have to be done step by step." ”

He was very calm and not in a hurry, and after the three of them went shopping, he also returned to the Taishou Mansion.

At this time, in front of the mansion, those officials did not dare to leave, and they were still waiting.

At that time, under the feudal dynasty, it was a feudal system, and Qin Di could also be said to be Xiao Yuan's fiefdom.

After arriving here, Xiao Yuan stopped and looked up at the door of the mansion.

Seeing that the young man dressed as a young man stopped here, the officials first glanced at each other, and then Guo Qian stepped forward and asked tentatively: "...... is this son?"

"Oh, I've kept you waiting, it's my official's fault, and I apologize." Xiao Yuan first arched his hand towards the people, then turned sideways slightly and stretched out his hand to Peng Shuang.

The latter understood, and immediately took out the holy decree from the package and handed it to Xiao Yuan.

After receiving the holy decree, Xiao Yuan didn't talk nonsense, and immediately unfolded it, and said in a calm voice: "The officials of Qinzhou received the decree. ”

When the people heard the news of the golden decree, they were first startled, and then they all knelt on the ground.

"The emperor's edict: The northwest land is the throat of the country, but the successive Taishou does not want to forge ahead, so that the people of Qindi are suffering, I take care of the left and right policies, think about it for a long time, and specially appoint Xiao Yuan as the Taishou of Qinzhou, and bring up all the important military and political affairs ......of Qinzhou."

After reciting the holy decree, Xiao Yuan also closed it, and the officials knelt on the ground, first looked at each other, and after getting up, the expressions on their faces also changed, turning into a smile and a compliment.

Guo Qian even bowed down and bowed to Xiao Yuanshen: "Ah, it turns out that Lord Taishou has arrived, and Shi Guoqian, the governor of Qin, is here to welcome your lordship." ”

Is he Changshi Guo Qian?

Xiao Yuan first glanced at him, and then waved his hand with a smile: "Hey? Lord Guo doesn't have to be polite, but he is the official, so he has been waiting for a long time. ”

His attitude was very modest, and the officials hurriedly said: "Where is it, Lord Taishou tortures me and waits......"

"Please come in." At this time, Guo Qian also turned sideways and bent down and stretched out his hand.

"Okay." Xiao Yuan nodded, and then entered the Taishou Mansion with a group of officials.

The guards at the gate of the mansion were all veterans under Xiao Yuan, so they were naturally familiar with him, and when they saw him, they immediately exclaimed: "My lord! ”

"Yes." Xiao Yuan raised his hand to signal that the guards didn't have to be polite, and after entering the mansion, as he walked, he asked: "Lord Guo, this official asked General Ye Cheng to take the first step before, and those official documents were all sent over, right?" ”

"Of course, of course, the lord has already ordered it, and the lower official has already sent it to the study." Guo Qian returned.

As he spoke, he hurriedly said: "In addition, the adults have been running all the way, and the boats and cars are tiring, and the lower officials have already prepared a banquet, and I hope that the adults will come in the evening." ”

As soon as he finished speaking, other officials also began to echo and said: "Yes, my lord, this is also my intention to wait for the lower officials, hoping to wash the dust for the adults......"

Listening to their kind words, Xiao Yuan smiled slightly: "Since you are so elevated, it is difficult to resist the hospitality, this official will definitely arrive, and at that time, I also hope to have a good time with the lords." ”

"Ah, my lord is so polite......"

People had smiles on their faces and kept giving salutes.

After beating him face-to-face, Guo Qian also began to say: "When the adults first arrived, they are not familiar with the Taishou Mansion, so I will wait for the next official, and it is inconvenient to disturb for a long time, so I will retire first." ”

"Okay." Xiao Yuan also nodded and said, "Then the official will send it to you." ”

"Oh, stay here, I'll retire ......"

People saluted again, and after leaving the Taishou Mansion, they naturally began to talk again.

"This newcomer, Lord Taishou, looks quite peaceful."

"Huh? It's just a superficial job, and I don't know what kind of person he is. ”

Another official approached Guo Qian and said tentatively: "Lord Guo, look, during the banquet in the evening, should we take the opportunity to give a gift?" ”

"En......" Guo Qian pondered for a while, waved his hand and said, "Don't do it yet, let's see it, so as not to move stones and hit your feet." ”

On the other side, waiting for the officials to leave, Xiao Yuan went directly to the study, and began to look through the official documents and bamboo slips sent at random.

In these bamboo slips, the tax and people's livelihood issues in Qinzhou in previous years are recorded, Xiao Yuan looked at it seriously, Liu Yu was beside him, and arched his hand and said: "My lord, these officials are all respectful and humble." ”

"It's just superficial, it's human nature."

Xiao Yuan continued to look at the bamboo slips, and said without raising his head: "How can you know what they are thinking." ”

"Then the lord agreed to go to the banquet......" Liu Yuzhi asked tentatively.

"If I don't go to the banquet, won't they think I'm too big, and more importantly, if I put it too upright, the officials at all levels may be wary of me, which is very detrimental to our next deployment." Xiao Yuan glanced up at him, and then continued to look through the official documents.

After a while, he put down the bamboo slip in his hand and pointed: "I just looked through a few volumes at random, and the official document said: It is difficult to collect taxes in Qindi, and the people in many places, or for the people, last year, the tax revenue of the entire Qin land was only 100,000 taels of silver, and the grain and grass were even less. ”

"But we learned from the mouths of the people that Qin often raises taxes, and the people are miserable, so where does the money go to loot the people's fat and ointment? Not yet into the pockets of these officials. ”

"Your Excellency is saying that the official document is fake?" Liu Yuzhi said.

"Of course." Xiao Yuan chuckled and said, "But these can't be quiet, and they can't be done now, because there are too many officials involved in Qindi, and once they move, they may change." ”

"That'...... With so many questions, where are adults ready to start? Liu Yuzhi said with some worry: "From this point of view, it will affect the whole body." ”

"En......" Xiao Yuan groaned for a moment, then got up and paced back and forth for two steps, and said, "Let's collect the military power first." ”

"This matter has to be taken by taking advantage of the fact that these officials are unguarded and taken down with lightning speed."
