"This ...... It's under the jurisdiction of the government. Hong Siqi subconsciously clenched his hands and made a final effort, "Don't you think it's unreasonable and inappropriate to let the princess and the privy council take care of this?"

"Why did the guest officer say that?" Dr. Tea looked dazed, as if he didn't think there was anything wrong at all, "The princess is the third daughter of His Majesty today, and she is older than the official mansion." She is willing to meddle in the people's livelihood and care about whether everyone is doing well, which is the blessing of the people of Jinxia City. ”

Chickens talk with ducks, chickens talk with ducks!

Hong Siqi looked up to the sky and sighed, these fools don't know anything about government politics at all.

If whoever comes to the big head will listen to whom, won't the policy be changed overnight, and the court system will not be chaotic?

Strictly speaking, Princess Quang Binh's actions have crossed the line and are to be impeached!

In order to avoid arousing suspicion, Hong Siqi asked a few more irrelevant questions before returning to the topic, "If the government returns to normal, it will be related to this...... If there is a conflict between the secretariat, will you support Taishou-sama?"

Dr. Tea smiled strangely.

He didn't answer the question, but his look said it all.

After Hong Siqi left the teahouse, he headed along the main street towards Dongcheng District - he wanted to see with his own eyes what kind of demon and monster the Jinxia General Affairs Bureau was that everyone said was almost omnipotent.

"Master, Her Royal Highness the princess has violated the rules, should we report to the Ministry of Officials and let the Holy Lord punish her crimes?" Ding Pan said excitedly.

"Heh," Hong Siqi sneered, "Do you think Lord Tianguan will be unaware of this?"

"Huh?

"At least you should have heard of it. His voice grew colder, "I said how after ten years, the above is finally willing to let me take a step closer and transfer me to be the Taishou of Jinxia City, it turns out that there is still this matter inside." ”

"I don......'t understand," Ding Pan wondered, "Since the above knows, why didn't you say anything?"

"I guess it's the Privy Council. Hong Siqi touched his chin, "It's not a matter of a day or two that they have the idea of getting involved in court politics, these laymen can only see the relationship between Xia Fucheng and Her Royal Highness the Princess, but they can't see the huge Privy Council power behind him." Frankly...... This is more difficult than the wealthy and the family. ”

The servant's face suddenly became bitter, "Then haven't you become a pawn of the Six Pathfinders?"

"It's up to me to decide whether to be a pawn or not. Hong Siqi said in a deep voice. He didn't want to go toe-to-toe with the royal family and the Privy Council at all, and even if he could gain the moral upper hand, it would not be himself who would reap the fruits in the end. Writing a book to impeach the princess is such a thing, if he really does it, he will be called a fool.

However, the rights and interests that belong to them still have to be fought for.

One is the third princess who is still young, and the other is a mansion from a priest, so he doesn't believe that the other party can manage all aspects of a city's affairs.

Just wait until they have a flaw......

"Everyone come and take a look and listen to it! The General Affairs Bureau is recruiting preparatory officials! You don't need the results of the imperial examination, you don't need the ranking of the township examination, as long as you have a clean background, no past criminal records, and can read and write, you can register!"

When Hong Siqi walked to the entrance of Dongcheng Street, before he saw the gate of the bureau, there was a crisp shouting sound around the corner.

He stumbled on his feet and almost didn't fall to the ground.

What's, this, what's this talking about?

The Secretariat is actually selecting its own officials?

He even doubted his ears a little - although the other party was talking about a reserve official, the word official itself should not be used arbitrarily, not to mention that the other party did not look at the results of the imperial examination?

"Master, this ......" Ding Pan also looked shocked. Obviously, this shouting had a great impact on the master and servant who had been immersed in officialdom for a long time.

Hong Siqi took a deep breath, "Go and see!"

Turning the corner, a long and boiling street appeared in front of the two. This side of the fence was undoubtedly the location of the office, and he confirmed this through the roadside sign.

The wall did not completely enclose the office, the entrance that was used as a gate was almost a hundred paces wide, and the flow of people showed that there were no restrictions on the entry and exit of the people, so that the place that should have been a display of the majesty of the institution was noisy like a bazaar.

And the voice I heard just now came from a girl dressed in red.

The form of the dress is also very chic, not like the usual wide hem robe or dress, but a slightly straight long coat and trousers, red fabric decorated with white silk long edges, and a pair of short boots, which looks both generous and eye-catching.

There were also a dozen or so men and women dressed in the same costume, all of whom were characterized by their age.

Hong Siqi walked up to the girl, "This little lady, I want to ask, can you take the matter of recruiting reserve officials in the bureau seriously?"

"This is the latest policy promulgated, and there is the seal of Her Royal Highness the princess on the back of the document, so you can rest assured. The other party replied briskly.

"Isn't this reserve officer in conflict with the officials appointed by the imperial court?"

"Hmm...... There are still differences, first of all, the applicant must pass the training of the secretariat, and there will be multiple subsequent reviews, and only those with excellent performance can be officially elected. Although the threshold is high, the salary and treatment are also very good, which is a rare opportunity for ordinary people!"

No, that's not the point at all.

The girl in red clearly didn't understand what he meant.

Hong Siqi had to make the question more specific, "What I want to ask is, if the bureau does this, what will the scholars think, and will they accept it? I listen to you, as long as you can read and write, businessmen, actors, and tea doctors...... Isn't it possible for anyone to do it?"

The girl tilted her head and thought for a moment, "If you don't accept it...... Wouldn't it be nice not to sign up?"

"Then the order will be broken, and the scholars will not admit it!" Hong Siqi said his heart in a hurry, "Without their support, Jin Xia City will be in chaos sooner or later!"

A chaotic city may be suitable for wealthy families and gangs, but it is by no means what he wants to see—how can he make money if the officials have to control the people and the powerful, the scholars do not support them, and there is no one to use under them?

Unless he comes out and fights the princess.

"Why don't you admit it?" The academy organized by the Secretariat is about to recruit the first batch of apprentices, as long as they are of the right age, they can listen to the lectures without spending money, these are all scholars, right?" The other party said disapprovingly, "Without the care of Her Royal Highness the Princess and Lord Xia, most people can't even read books for the rest of their lives, and now that they finally have the opportunity, how can they oppose the new policy of the Bureau?"

Tuition Waiver ......

Hong Siqi forgot how he got out of that street.

In less than an hour, he felt that he had been greatly impacted. Opening a school and recruiting "officials" on your own obviously sounds extremely ridiculous, but no one thinks there is anything wrong. Yes, the people he is talking to so far are all mud-headed people, and he has not yet come into contact with scholars, but Hong Siqi knows in his heart that it is often not the scholars who can keenly perceive the current situation of the city, but the people who have lived in the streets and alleys for a long time - even if they do not understand the source of this situation, their words and deeds will unconsciously reveal the trend of evolution.

"Sir...... What should we do now?" Ding Pan muttered.

Hong Siqi was silent for a long time and then spoke, "Time is not on our side. Don't look any further, go and meet Her Royal Highness. ”
