Not to mention that Majorian relied on a great victory to force Theodoric II to sue for peace, and finally signed an agreement, and then led his army back to Rome with great fanfare in a triumphant manner, and carried out drastic reforms in the country with the power of great victory, but it is said that the Hu Empire formed a highly unified political pattern under the efforts of Qin Dong, and all the work of the empire was on the right track.

May is the spring ploughing season, for the newly acquired land, before the imperial court allocated a large amount of money for the construction of water conservancy and irrigation facilities, and after a period of time, these newly repaired water conservancy and irrigation facilities can come in handy, since the imperial court reformed the political system, reorganized the central court yamen, all government affairs are on the right track, officials are also performing their duties, because there is the State Council to deal with government affairs, Qin Dong, the emperor has been idle, only very important government affairs need to be decided by Qin Dong, Therefore, Qin Dong has a lot of time now, and he is idle in the past few days, so Qin Dong decided to go to Thrace Province to see the newly built water conservancy and irrigation facilities.

Among the important ministers of the imperial court, there was a vice premier of the State Council, a vice minister of military aircraft, and the imperial envoy of the right capital of the Metropolitan Procuratorate accompanied him, and there were also 3,000 guards and iron cavalry escorts.

Before setting off from Saidika, Qin Dong asked the State Council to send a letter to the governor of Thrace Province Yamen to inform him that the emperor was about to come to inspect government affairs, and the speed of the messenger was very fast, but Qin Dong's speed was not satisfied, and the messenger arrived at Edirne, the capital of Thracian Province, Qin Dong and others were escorted by three thousand Janissary Iron Cavalry to Guò Sveron Castle, and it only took one day to reach Edirne.

Patrick, the governor of Thrace, did not dare to slack off when he received the news that His Majesty the Emperor was about to visit Thrace. The provincial envoy, the provincial envoy, and other officials of the three yamen were immediately summoned to discuss the matter of reception.

The reception work meeting lasted for a day and finally finalized the person in charge of each link, but by the next morning, when the officials were about to do what they were responsible for, Qin Dong's royal car had already arrived outside the west gate of Edirne. This news can make the provincial governor Patrick almost slump to the ground with fright, how can he know how Qin Dong's imperial car arrived so quickly, it stands to reason that it should take several days to arrive, but Qin Dong is a person who does not play cards according to common sense.

There was no way, since Qin Dong's imperial chariot had arrived outside the west gate of the inner city of Edier, Patrick could only stubbornly take the political envoy Fowler, the provincial imperial envoy Cliff and other officials to rush to the west gate to greet him, and even forgot to make arrangements for the simple greeting work such as cleaning the streets.

Patrick and the others had just arrived outside the West City Gate. Qin Dong's imperial chariot appeared, the yellow sand rose into the sky, and three thousand Praetorian Iron Cavalry soldiers protected Qin Dong and the accompanying ministers soon arrived under the city.

"Patrick, the governor of Thrace, led one hundred and twenty-eight officials from various official offices, including the envoy Fowler, the provincial envoy Cliff, to welcome the emperor, and inspected the Thracian province. Long live Majesty! ”

"Long live His Majesty the Emperor!" After Patrick shouted long live, all the officials and citizens who welcomed him knelt down and shouted long live.

"Get up!" Qin Dong's voice was very loud, but he couldn't hear what his mood was at this time.

"Thank you!" Everyone slapped the dust on their knees and hands and stood up to thank them.

At this time, Governor Patrick bowed again and saluted: "Your Majesty, if Your Majesty does not dislike it." His Majesty was also asked to move the palace to the governor's palace. The minister has ordered someone to clean up the house, and all the servants have been inspected and questioned in detail, and the safety is absolutely guaranteed! ”

Qin Dong pondered for a moment and then agreed: "Okay, then set up the Governor's Mansion and set up my palace there!" ”

Xinggong refers to the mobile palace where the emperor travels, which is called Xinggong, and there is also a saying called Xingyuan, which generally refers to the residence of high-ranking officials or high-ranking generals. It also refers to an office established in a place of temporary residence. In the Hu Empire, only the offices of high-ranking officials or high-ranking generals appointed by the emperor to inspect the provinces could be called Xingyuan. The residence of other officials outside the home on official business is not qualified to be called a nobleman.

Later, under the escort of the Praetorian Iron Cavalry, Qin Dong's imperial chariot entered the city and headed for the governor's palace, and the officials followed the imperial chauffeur so that they could be summoned by Qin Dong at any time.

Qin Dong was fully armored, riding a war horse and walking slowly on the street, because the citizens did not know that the emperor was coming, so only the soldiers of the local army stood guard on the street, and the citizens on the street at this time stood on the side of the street and watched Qin Dong's large group of cavalry pass by.

There were not many people on the street, Qin Dong could clearly see that the street had not been cleaned, although there was not a lot of garbage, but the street was not very tidy, so he turned his head and shouted: "Patrick! ”

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty, the minister!"

Qin Dong didn't stop, let the war horse go by himself, and he said: "Patrick, I finally came here, you have to make a show of it, you look at the dirty streets, I see nothing, if you let foreigners see it, others still think that all the towns in our Hu Empire are dirty, will this give a bad impression to foreigners?" Will they think that we are really savages who don't even know how to clean and clean? ”

When Patrick heard this, beads of sweat instantly appeared on his vest and forehead, and now that the weather and temperature are starting to rise, sweating is normal, so no one else thinks that Patrick is sweating because he is afraid.

"Your Majesty, the minister's dereliction of duty, it is the minister's fault, in this area of public health has not increased the intensity of governance, please Your Majesty Xià to surrender!" Prime Minister Patrick admitted his dereliction of duty and mistakes, in his opinion, it is useless to defend at this time, and he was arrested, and the defense can only leave an impression in Qin Dong's eyes that he is not responsible, and he may be able to escape if he has the courage to admit his mistakes.

Sure enough, Qin Dong did not hold Patrick accountable again, but shouted: "Where is Fowler?" ”

Patrick, the governor of Thrace, is a general personally ordered by Qin Dong, to govern the Thracian province well, the governor of the province must know Thrace province very well, and can only be a local, Qin Dong thought about it for a long time before deciding to use Patrick, this person is Germanic, born in Thrace province since childhood, well-educated, before becoming an official of the Xiongnu Empire, he had served in the previous Thrace province governor's palace, although the official position is not high, but he is very skilled and understands Thrace province, Moreover, he had good connections in the officialdom of Thracian Province at that time, but he had to leave and defect to the Xiongnu Empire because he offended the governor of the province at that time, Leo I.

Not only Patrick, but even the provincial envoy Cliff is also a general of Qin Dongdian, but the political envoy Fowler is recommended by the State Council, officials at this level of the province, only Qin Dong, the emperor, is qualified to appoint, and officials below the provincial level can be appointed by the State Council, but other officials in the province, the State Council has the right to recommend, after all, the State Council must be in charge of the country's government affairs, and cannot command people, otherwise the State Council is just a yamen without real power, and its significance will be greatly reduced.

When the political envoy Fowler heard Qin Dong call his name, he immediately realized that Qin Dong's eyes were about to shift to himself, and he was also a very shrewd person, so he immediately saluted and said: "Qi Zheng Xià, the government affairs of public health are under the jurisdiction of the minister, and it has nothing to do with the governor, now that something is wrong, it is the responsibility of the minister, and the minister is derelict in his duties, please punish His Majesty!" ”

Okay, all of them are like monkey spirits, Qin Dong squinted at Fowler, swept Patrick, and finally fell on Cliff, but Cliff did not stand up, he is the imperial envoy of the provincial capital, and his main responsibility is to supervise whether the officials in the province have violated the law and discipline, but this kind of affairs related to government affairs is not something he should be in charge of, so he just bowed his body and did not stand up to admit his mistakes.

Of course, Qin Dong will not be exempted from accountability because Fowler admitted his mistake, as Fowler himself said, public health is the work of government affairs, and he is the provincial envoy, in fact, he is the provincial governor, which is within his scope of responsibility, Qin Dong did not wronged him when he pursued it, he wanted to use the courage to admit his mistake and avoid punishment like Patrick.

"Of course, you have to be punished, in the whole province, Patrick is in charge of the whole province, you are in charge of specific government affairs, if there is a problem in government affairs, of course I will hold you responsible, but Patrick also has leadership responsibilities, I want to severely reprimand you here, once the decrees are promulgated and implemented, they must be implemented effectively for a long time, and they must not be slack off for a moment, such as this public health problem, the streets of each town must be cleaned every day before early morning, and the garbage must be disposed of at night, and cannot be left until the next day, Long-term persistence is the only way to maintain the sanitary conditions in the town, and who are the specific officials in charge of public health? This person has an unshirkable responsibility, I won't continue to pursue it here, you can solve it yourself in the province! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The officials were relieved to hear Qin Dong's last few words, and it was fortunate that only the chief official of the Department of Public Health was held accountable for the matter, and that it did not continue to expand.

However, these officials can be regarded as touching Qin Dong's temper a little bit from this matter, and they are resolute! We must no longer procrastinate in doing things under his hands, nor can we fish for three days and dry nets for two days, and the decrees promulgated must always be carried out.

After this incident, the director of health in charge of public health affairs was finished, but this matter did not affect Qin Dong's mood at all, and the royal car continued to move in the direction of the governor's palace, Qin Dong observed the faces and clothes of the citizens on the street along the way, and stopped and stopped for half an hour before arriving at the governor's palace.
