Chapter 249: The Ministry of Officials is Criticized
By the Qinhuai River, fireworks obscured the sky tonight, and the flickering fireworks made the void as bright as day.
Just because during the day, a good news from the north came to the capital, and the military department immediately sent people to spread it around.
"Great victory in the North!"
"The rebellious army has arrived in Rinzhou and the two states."
"Congratulations to the Great Summer!"
Yan Lanfeng is worthy of being a good businessman, and immediately ordered today's fireworks to be sold at a 7% discount, so there was a scene of fireworks by the Qinhuai River.
The next day, the morning dynasty.
On the Fengtian Palace, as soon as Xiao Pingsi sat down, he heard the applause of the ministers:
"Ministers congratulate for Great Xia, congratulate Your Majesty, Long live Great Xia, Long live Your Majesty!"
Xiao Pingsi naturally knew the good news, and waved his hand: "Zhong Aiqing is flat, ahaha......"
He was so happy.
The army successfully regained the lost territory in the winter in the two states of Beiliang and Beiliang, which was a feat that the previous emperors did not do, but his reign had a beginning.
How not to like.
How can there be an emperor who doesn't love civil governance and martial arts.
"Your Majesty, I heard that the young master brought the soldiers of the musket bureau, so this trip must be of great help." Zhuge Qingshan said with a smile.
"Let's talk about it in detail." Xiao Pingsi gestured.
Zhang Xian, the squire of the military department, came out of the class: "The good news said that the destruction of the city in Shuangzhou was the main merit of the firearms battalion, and more than 4,900 beheadings were beheaded, and less than 21 of our army were wounded. β
"What?" The civil officials present were fine, but the military attachΓ©s were stunned.
"How is that possible?"
Mo Yuan felt incredible: "The casualties are less than twenty-one? β
"How so......"
This is no longer a question of belief or distrust, it is simply a one-sided slaughter, and it is not an exaggeration to push it all aside.
But this is a siege war.
Since ancient times, the casualties of the besieging side are often several times or even ten times that of the defenders.
How could it be the other way around.
Unless the other party doesn't close the door, they can't fight back from a distance on the city wall.
"Is it too exaggerated...... some people questioned, suspecting that Fang Jue had falsely reported the battle damage for the sake of credit.
Zhang Xian shook his head: "The military department was also very shocked, but after reading the details, I was relieved, the young master attacked with a firearms battalion, and he had to blast through the city gate in a moment...... and suppressed the enemy army at the head of the city and could not fight back, and the army easily entered the city, as if it were in a no-man's land. β
"I see......"
"But the city gate is so thick, how can it be easily blasted open?" It's still a bit beyond everyone's imagination.
Zhang Xiandao: "If you are interested, you can go to the military department to check the details of this battle after you disperse." β
Seeing Zhang Xian say this, everyone stopped being verbose, and it was impossible for the court to discuss only this one thing.
Happy is happy, the government affairs that should be done still have to be done.
Next, it's time for the Cabinet and the Six Ministries to perform.
"Your Majesty, the preliminary affairs of Jiangnan Water Conservancy have been carried out, and the people from the Ministry of Industry have gone to Jiangnan, and the express report sent back says that everything is going well." Shangshu Weiyun of the Ministry of Industry came out of the class and reported the work of the Ministry of Industry in the near future.
Yan Lanfeng stared at Wei Yun to death, and a steel knife flashed in his eyes, slaughtering this guy who only knew how to reach out and ask for money.
Do you know how difficult it is for the household department to make money?
It cost me four million at once, and more than two million a year!
Really when I'm the hen who places the order?
Yan Lanfeng knew that His Majesty remembered the matter of Jiangnan Water Conservancy, which was reminded by the Ministry of Industry.
The household department has been in the limelight recently, everyone knows that the household department is rich, and Wei Yun also knows it, so he thinks that some projects can be carried out.
I submitted the plans for several projects.
Then the Jiangnan Water Conservancy Project was re-mentioned by His Majesty.
As the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, Wei Yun is naturally happy, and the start-up capital of four million taels is enough for him to start his work in a big way.
Recently, the enthusiasm of the Ministry of Industry has increased a lot, and some people are even working overtime in order to revise the drawings.
This enthusiasm was impeached by the imperial history...... No one is allowed to roll, officialdom has rules, and the imperial court cannot advocate involution, otherwise many affairs will collapse.
"The Ministry of Engineering has done its best and done a good job."
Xiao Pingsi approved, looked at Yan Lanfeng again, and saw that he was depressed, and suddenly felt in a better mood.
"The cabinet should coordinate with all ministries, cooperate with the Ministry of Industry, and give priority to national politics in everything, and must not be delayed."
Cabinet Ministers: "Yes." β
Nodding, Xiao Pingsi pointed to Qian Boyang: "How is the matter of Yushitai?" β
When Qian Boyang heard this, he coughed out of class:
"Your Majesty appointed Lord Qin Shiyi of Yushitai to inspect Ganzhou as a messenger...... This is the return of the recital. β
As he spoke, he presented it in public.
When Xiao Pingsi reached out to take it from Wang Feng's hand, he asked, "Did you just arrive this morning?" β
If it had arrived yesterday, this fold should have gone to the cabinet.
"Your Majesty will know when you see it." Qian Boyang stopped talking, stretched his eyebrows, and lowered his head slightly.
The ministers wondered, when did the Yushitai become so cowardly?
Even Qian Boyang, a good old man, has always been neither humble nor arrogant, why does he look a little weak today.
Xiao Pingsi was also puzzled, so he opened the fold signed "Qin Shiyi", and with just a glance, he understood where Qian Boyang's heart came from today.
"Good fellows." After Xiao Pingsi took a closer look, he was also shocked, and his eyebrows flew.
Qian Boyang was cautious, looked at His Majesty's face, and saw that he couldn't see the clouds and sunshine to calm his anger, so he was a little calm.
"Your Majesty?"
Zhuge Qingshan saw that His Majesty was silent for a long time, and asked after leaving the class: "I don't know what the result of Lord Qin's inspection is?" β
As a Qin cha, and holding the Son of Heaven Imperial Sword, Zhuge Qingshan knew that Qin Shiyi must be as fierce as a bandit without asking.
This person is already very strict, and he is very qualified as a royal history, if he is allowed to enforce the law, with his jealous and hateful temper, he will not stop killing a river of blood.
I don't know if there is anything wrong with the Son of Heaven Edgeworth, will it have been cut dull......
When Xiao Pingsi heard this, his face softened slightly, and he sneered: "Good Qin Shiyi, good Ganzhou!" β
The first half of the sentence is loud, and the second half of the sentence can be heard by anyone, yin and yang.
Your Majesty is affirming Qin Shiyi and questioning Ganzhou.
Some officials who originally wanted to make trouble suddenly retracted their feet and did not dare to go out of work.
"Officials!" Xiao Pingsi suddenly glanced over coldly, staring at Shangguan Ding, the secretary of the ministry, "These officials in Ganzhou are doing misdeeds and preying on the people in Ganzhou, don't you know anything about the officials?!" β
According to Qin Shiyi's report, the crimes committed by these officials are no less than those committed by the previous head of the household.
Shangguan Ding came out of class and had no choice but to accuse: "The officials are derelict in their duties, and the ministers are willing to accept the guilt." β
"Who is the governor of Ganzhou?" Xiao Pingsi asked in a cold voice.
"Ganzhou, Suzhou, Liangzhou, Lizhou, Beidu...... The governor of the five state capitals is Xiao Ting. "Shangguan Ding is helpless, this is what Your Majesty asked yourself.
"Xiao Ting......" The ministers were silent.
Xiao Ping was angry, gritted his teeth, and his old face turned red.
Just because this Xiao Ting is a member of the royal family, like Xiao Neng, the former deputy chief soldier of Gyeonggi Province, his ancestors are the descendants of the emperor, and he is a side of the royal family.
But even if he is next to him, Xiao Ting is also surnamed Xiao, and he loses the face of the Xiao royal family.
Xiao Pingsi was even more annoyed, and immediately said: "Xiao Ting is derelict in his duties!" β
"So, take away the post of governor of Xiao Ting, and hand it over to the Criminal Department and the Hanging Sword Division for inspection, he didn't notice such a big thing in Ganzhou, I don't believe it!"
It's definitely in the same boat.
Whether it is the emperor or the officials in the court, their hearts are clear.
"Hanging Sword Division." Xie Qi is out of class.
"The order of the Criminal Department." Su Lin came out of class, his face was full of helplessness, this is another big job.
Then, Xiao Pingsi looked at Shangguan Ding:
"Qin Qing is in Ganzhou, identifying loyal traitors, the Son of Heaven sword beheaded hundreds, from the state capital to the county order, most of them are corrupt and perverted the law, and Qin Qing has been corrected immediately!"
"Hiss......" With this sentence, everyone seemed to see a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.
How many people have their heads on the ground.
Now His Majesty is unwilling to settle the matter, looking at this posture, he will be held accountable, and the officialdom is in danger.
Even royal relatives like Xiao Ting were dealt with mercilessly, and at least all those who were waiting for him were exiled, not to mention how panicked others were.
Xiao Pingsi said: "The officials, we must immediately sum up and send new officials to replace them." β
"Yes."
"Also, the officials who went to Suzhou were also investigated and punished because they disliked the bitter cold of Suzhou and deliberately stayed in Ganzhou to delay...... Send people again, and if this situation occurs again, I will send you to Suzhou! β
Shangguan Ding shrunk his neck and hurriedly arched his hand: "The minister's decree, there will never be a next time!" β
gritted his teeth in his heart, and scolded these people who were going to Suzhou to take office.
Dog stuff ruin me!
"If it's okay, then disperse ......," Xiao Pingsi was saying that he wanted to disperse.
But I saw that among the military attachΓ©s, someone was out of work.
