Chapter 681: Envoys from the South

In a county palace, dozens of imperial relatives gathered here, and they all received a notice from the Zongren Mansion that the emperor would send them to various remote places to serve.

To put it bluntly, it is to not let them sit in the imperial capital in the future, give them a small position, and go to a small place to do things in the future.

In this way, they can't always pay money in the household department, and they can't enjoy a good life in the imperial capital.

I can only receive a little money for that small position every month, and although I still have the status of a relative of the emperor, I no longer enjoy the treatment of the emperor's relatives.

These people must be dissatisfied, to be honest, they didn't want Qin Ming to be the emperor at the beginning, they were worried that Qin Ming would be like this.

Now, if such a thing happens, they are naturally not happy.

In fact, they didn't know that Qin Ming had the idea of killing these people.

But now I feel that it is inappropriate to kill them, so it is better to go away one by one.

In the hall of the county king's mansion, a thirty-year-old man spoke:

"I'm also the son of the world, and I actually let me go to the small county town in the southeast to be the steward of a post station, what are you ......kidding?"

"You're all right, what about me, a pony, who let me be the head of the cell...... said a colt who was the half-sister of the Emperor.

These people are not too close to the first emperor, but their identities are still there, so Qin Ming can only use the way of giving positions to reduce their status.

"No matter what, as the king of the county, I won't go to a remote place to do things."

The high-ranking county king spoke, and the other two county kings present and the prince and the county lord all nodded one after another.

……

In the palace, in the Qingxin Palace, King Cheng said to Qin Ming: "The order of the Zongren Mansion has gone down, but those imperial relatives who have done nothing seem to be indifferent, as if they are ...... Not very willing to follow the arrangement! ”

Qin Ming said lightly: "Don't listen to the arrangement? Heh, it's okay, Yu Ze! ”

"The minister is here!"

Yu Ze took a few steps forward and bowed.

Qin Ming said as he wrote the holy decree: "Let the green robe go to these royal relatives and bring my holy decree, whoever dares not to listen to it will resist the decree and be convicted and killed on the spot!" ”

"Yes!"

Yu Ze stepped forward and took the holy decree and left immediately.

"These people, it's time to punish them!" King Cheng sighed.

Qin Ming nodded slightly and said, "How are those envoys recently?" ”

"Except for Princess Yanguo and Princess Jinguo who live in the Little Princess Anle Palace to accompany the little princess, no one else has left, and they often want to see Your Majesty, it seems that they can't wait to have a good relationship with you."

After King Cheng finished speaking, he thought for a while and said: "Your Majesty, more than a dozen countries from the surrounding twenty countries have come to congratulate them, but the island countries and individual countries have not come. ”

"You want to focus on island nations, right?" Qin Ming spoke.

King Cheng nodded seriously, and then said: "Yes, the island country has always harbored evil intentions, wanting to enter the land, and even wanting to capture our Chu country.

Last time, after you killed the emperor of the island country and a large group of courtiers, the prince of the island country inherited the throne, and for more than half a year, there has been no movement, but, the minister feels that he has to be careful, the dog that bites people does not bark! ”

"Indeed, in the past six months, the island country has been too low-key, and it seems to have faded out of everyone's sight, but it has to be guarded against." Qin Ming also agreed with King Cheng's words.

"Then in your opinion, do you want to send someone to investigate?" King Cheng asked.

Qin Ming nodded: "It's necessary, this matter is still left to the Dark Web Division." ”

"Yes!" Cheng Wang bowed.

"Nothing else, the minister will retire!"

Qin Ming nodded, and King Cheng retreated.

Qin Ming saw that the folds on the table had also been dealt with, and it was only afternoon outside, so he got up, and after moving his body, he said to Gonggong Liu:

"The first emperor is so tired every day?"

"Yes, but the first emperor is older, and there are some things that he has dealt with for a long time, and he has been thinking about it for a long time, not as fast as you, Your Majesty." Liu Gonggong said.

Qin Ming smiled, and then walked out of the Qingxin Palace, and said as he walked:

"Gonggong Liu, is there still a six-rank master like you in the palace?"

"Back to Your Majesty, no."

Qin Ming frowned: "It seems that there are powerful warriors in the imperial court, those generals or something, the most powerful are only three or four grades...... If there is a war in the future, it will be embarrassing! ”

Gonggong Liu lowered his head and followed Qin Ming, not knowing what to say.

Qin Ming, on the other hand, was thinking about himself, and after a while, his eyes lit up and he said:

"By the way, you can implement the martial champion model, get a model like the imperial examination, once a year, to select martial arts talents, and serve the country."

Qin Ming knows very well that a country. We should not only pay attention to literature, but also pay attention to martial arts.

Wen can govern the country, and martial arts can secure the country, and one cannot be missing.

Thinking of this, Qin Ming said to Gonggong Liu: "Send a decree to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites, so that they can immediately follow the imperial examination and make a martial arts, and like the imperial examination, they will select martial arts talents with their intentions."

In addition, some new regulations should be added to the imperial examination and the martial arts examination, and those who take the imperial examination must have good physical fitness. In this way, we can ensure that these talents are in good health.

And the people of martial arts must also be able to read and hyphenate words, and cannot be blind martial artists. As the saying goes, both civil and military, this is the way of talent. ”

Gonggong Liu hurriedly bowed: "The old slave has written it down." ”

Qin Ming nodded with satisfaction: "You go and do it, I'll go to Anle Palace for a walk." ”

With that, Qin Ming went towards Anle Palace.

Along the way, he was also thinking about what he was doing these days.

Once the land reform and taxation issues are resolved, the pressure on the people will be reduced and there will be enough land to cultivate.

In this way, the problem of civilian food has been solved.

As long as the seeds given by Qin Ming are planted well, coupled with the mass production of rice and potatoes and sweet potatoes, then in half a year, the Chu State can store a lot of grain.

Whether it is being invaded or going to fight someone, there must be more food reserves.

In addition, it was Qin Ming's previous decision to vigorously develop civil and military talents.

The country has money, enough food, and more talents, who are you afraid of?

Thinking of this, Qin Ming was inexplicably excited.

At this moment, when they arrived at Anle Palace, the little princess, Yan Lingfei and Ye Xiaowu were playing kites in the garden.

Although everyone was afraid of this at first, after Qin Ming taught them how to play, they were not afraid anymore and thought it was fun.

In ancient times, when there was not much entertainment, kites were undoubtedly the most fun things they find now.

Qin Ming saw that everyone was having a good time, smiled, stepped forward and said:

"How boring a kite is, do it yourself, and make two more according to it!"

When the three girls turned around, they all suddenly realized, so they went to make kites, but they left Qin Ming aside.

Qin Ming had no choice but to sit aside and watch them tinker with the new kite.

The garden is full of laughter.

Qin Ming looked at the three girls with a smile, in a good mood.

After a long time, Gonggong Liu came back and said to Qin Ming: "Your Majesty, the holy decree has been given to the Ministry of Officials and the Ministry of Rites, and in addition, there is another important matter. ”

Qin Ming asked, "What's the matter?" ”

"Back to Your Majesty, Nanguo...... It's time for the envoys! ”。

Qin Ming's eyes widened, and the little princess, who was making kites, also raised her head sharply and said:

"Southland...... Is it the same southern country that killed my imperial brother during the war two years ago? ”
