Zhao Qingrui rubbed her eyebrows, these places are defeated, and it is basically unrealistic to govern them like the Central Plains.

Seeing the results calculated by Li Si, Zhao Qingrui had an even more headache.

The annual expenditure of the state treasury in these localities is too large, and it is no wonder that many people in the DPRK and China have opinions, and even want to abandon the border areas and abandon these relatively pitiful areas.

Zhao Qingrui touched her chin, how to solve these problems?

There are a lot of cattle and sheep raised on the grassland, and all kinds of dairy products and dried meat are selling well, so that the factories there have some income.

However, this is still too little, if she continues to spend such a huge amount, Zhao Qingrui feels that it will be okay for a few years, and if it is like this all the time, she will definitely not be happy.

It took a few days to read the account books, and above the court meeting, Zhao Qingrui's eyes swept over the people below, and now the people who can come to the court.

"I read this year's tax report a few days ago and found a lot of problems." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.

Zhao Qingrui's words made many people's hearts tighten.

Li Si was very calm, he naturally knew that there were some problems, problematic places, and problematic people, all of which he wrote in the recital, so that Zhao Qingrui could see it.

"My Great Qin's treasury has finally become healthier, and some people can't wait to reach out." Zhao Qingrui's voice seemed to freeze.

There are some problems with the things collected this time, and Li Si also checked it, and some of the data does not match.

Zhao Qingrui's words fell, the needles in the Qilin Hall could be heard, some people were calm, some people were already starting to break out in a cold sweat, but they were still tense, as long as they didn't find out, they were innocent.

Zhao Qingrui took the recital book and looked at the eunuchs beside her, and the eunuchs understood, took the recital and read it aloud.

"It is Gucheng County, Hanzhong County, which records 179,327 stone of tax grain, 130,000 stone of grain, and 97,580 stone of manuscript, which is recorded." As the eunuch read out the problematic places little by little, many people knelt down in the court.

Zhao Qingrui's gaze swept over these people, looking at them as if she were looking at a dead person.

"My Daqin is now in a good place and all kinds of treatment, so I haven't made your life difficult, right?" Zhao Qingrui said coldly.

Since she began to take power, the salaries of officials in the court and China have gradually improved, and now even if they are just an official who has entered the goods, the monthly salary is more than 1,000 yuan a month, and there is also food, in addition to wages, the court also allocates houses to them.

Of course, this house was not given to them directly, only if they dedicated themselves to Daqin for ten years, this house would be given to them.

In addition to the house, there are all kinds of gifts during the New Year's holidays, and there are many rewards for doing well.

However, these people actually dared to stretch out their hands on the tax grain, thinking that they didn't take much, and the court would not notice it, or did they think that the court didn't take that amount to heart?

Of course, there are also those who are bold, and now there is no shortage of food, no, some people are beginning to reach out to commercial taxes.

Zhao Qingrui treats officials very favorably, just hoping that these people will not be greedy.

However, she thought of these people too well.

"The minister has been wronged, and please ask Your Majesty to investigate." Some people still have a fluke mentality, and of course, they may really be wronged.

"Oh? Are you wronged? Who else is wronged? I just have nothing to do now, and I want to hear your grievances. Zhao Qingrui swept around the hundreds of people who knelt down, and was very disappointed.

"There was some drought in Yun County, where the minister is located, this year has caused the yield of the fields to be reduced, and the amount of tax grain collected is not enough." A young man, Fang Changlin, said with a stiff neck.

"Yushi Feng Zheng, write him down, imprison him first, and find out, I don't want to wronged a good person, nor do I want to let a bad person go." Zhao Qingrui glanced at Feng Zheng.

"The minister commands."

"The minister is also wronged, there is no problem with the tax grain recorded by the minister, the minister collects the amount of tax grain according to the law, and he is not corrupt." A tall woman also took the initiative to stand up and said loudly.

"Write it down."

A few more stood up one after another, and the others all knelt honestly, not daring to speak.

Zhao Qingrui waited again, but still no one stood up.

"The rest, all of them will be sent to Dali Temple to await trial, and once it is verified, all of them will go to the labor reform school, and they will not be pardoned for the rest of their lives." Zhao Qingrui had a cold face.

As her words fell, the guards entered the Qilin Hall and arrested all of them.

As for those who seem to be wronged, they are treated slightly better than these people.

With the elimination of these people, the people in the court have not come to their senses at this time.

"Your Majesty, now that the official position is vacant, it is inappropriate to arrest so many people at once." Feng Qujian stood up and persuaded him.

Feng Quji's face was bitter, there was a shortage of officials in the DPRK and China, and His Majesty had cleaned up so many people at once, His Majesty didn't want to make everything in the DPRK and China better, right?

"Feng Qing doesn't have to worry, if these people make small mistakes, I am willing to give them the opportunity to make up for their mistakes, but during this time, I have to work hard for you Aiqing." Zhao Qingrui knew what Feng Quji meant, and she was also very clear about the lack of officials in the DPRK and China.

"I understand." Feng Quji looked at Zhao Qingrui and sighed slightly, the officials in the court were still clear.

And the treatment given by the imperial court is very good, but these people are still greedy, and it is he, the secretary of the ministry, who is derelict in his duties.

"Your Majesty, the old minister did not manage these officials well, it is the old minister's dereliction of duty, and please punish Your Majesty." Feng went to kneel down and bowed.

He is already a very popular minister, and what he wants now is not only for the family to become more prosperous, but also for his posthumous name, and he also hopes that his name will go down in history.

The Ministry of Officials specializes in managing the appointment, dismissal, promotion, and so on of these officials, and many of them are still assigned to those positions, but now these people have disappointed him.

"Feng Qing is indeed derelict in his duties and will be fined half a year." Zhao Qingrui looked at Feng Quji, and still symbolically punished him.

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Feng Qujian looked at His Majesty who was sitting at the top, and was moved in his heart, His Majesty had these old ministers in his heart.

With Zhao Qingrui's orders one after another, not only in the treasury, but also in the imperial court, they are accounting and strictly investigating.

Subsequently, Zhao Qingrui gave another order, asking them to think about the plan of how to develop on the grassland.

Zhao Qingrui's order came down, and the Qilin Hall was quiet again.

It's been two years since the grassland and Fuyu were fought, but they have been losing money to raise, which is a burden, and many people in the DPRK and China are not very willing to take care of such a place.

Grassland, in two years, those Huns, Buyeong, and Jizi Koreans, these people's sense of identity with Daqin is still very weak, and they still need more efforts from Daqin.

Zhao Qingrui wants to develop these places, and in their opinion, this is simply embarrassing them.

One by one, they had a bitter face, but fortunately, Zhao Qingrui did not embarrass them.

"After the New Year, you will write a recital, you will think about it first, don't worry, and make a decision on this matter next year." Zhao Qingrui looked at the people in the court.

Now there are more than two months before the Chinese New Year, so there is no hurry.

After the court meeting, Zhao Qingrui went to the study center to take a look, and saw that these people were calculating the new calendar, and he was very satisfied.

Trying to get it out before the year, or the modern calendar, she is more accustomed to it.

Now there are hundreds of people here, and it is not difficult to do this work, but there are more calculations.

Fortunately, after her continuous promotion in the past few years, the calculation methods she came up with have gradually spread in Daqin, and these officials are even more excellent at calculation, otherwise they would not be selected when selecting officials.

After inquiring about the progress of these people, Zhao Qingrui knew it in her heart.

They already have a rough constitution for this calendar, and they should be able to get it out completely by the end of the year.

Seeing the satisfied look on Zhao Qingrui's face, many people were a little excited in their hearts, they did all this is a great credit, once it is done, it will definitely be able to go down in history in the future.

Of course, such a big credit, when they are released, I don't know what position His Majesty will put them in, I really look forward to it.

Among these people, especially Zhang Cang, he has a unique talent in calculating these calendars, and the main part of this calendar is determined by him.

Zhao Qingrui's eyes also fell on Zhang Cang's body, and in a few years, Zhang Cang has changed a lot and lost a lot of weight.

After losing weight, people look more energetic.

Zhang Cang still has a lot of talents, and when he gets the constitution back, he will release Zhang Cang and use it for a while.

Now, Zhang Cang's previous sins have to be atoned for.

Being stared at by His Majesty, Zhang Cang was a little nervous in his heart, this Majesty is not so easy to get along with.

Although she doesn't punish harshly, she has a special hand at torturing people.

For example, now, he is calculating the calendar every day, and he is guarded by a bunch of guards, as long as he is lazy, sometimes he doesn't even eat.

He was a little lazy at first, and after being hungry for a while, he became honest.

I can't finish the work every day, I can't eat enough, and I am slowly losing weight.

After losing weight, it was actually quite good, he himself felt more relaxed, and what he wanted to do was also relaxed.

What is His Majesty staring at him for? It's not going to punish him, is it? During this time, he was very serious about calculating the calendar, and he was not lazy.

To be honest, he was interested in calculating the calendar and was basically not lazy in this matter.

"Zhang Cang, you look a lot thinner." Zhao Qingrui looked at the worried Zhang Cang and chuckled.

"Your Majesty still remembers what the guilty minister looked like at the beginning, and it is the honor of the minister." Zhang Cang said respectfully.

"I've heard that you have a lot of experience in calculating the calendar." Zhao Qingrui looked at Zhang Cang lightly.

In the future, get an astronomy academy and get Zhang Cang in, anyway, now she has asked people to make the first version of the astronomical telescope, this is a talent, and it is better to put him in the right position for such a talent.

"I have a little experience, Your Majesty praised it." His Majesty didn't seem to want to clean him up, and Zhang Cang's courage slowly grew.

"Well, I've made a note of it, you're doing well, keep up the good work." Zhao Qingrui gave a word of encouragement, and then turned around and left the bookstore.

Seeing His Majesty leave like this, Zhang Cang was a little dumbfounded, and His Majesty's sudden questioning made his heart go up and down.

He thought he was going to end this life in prison, but in the end, it was nothing, and he still had to work hard.

——

The people of the Peacock Dynasty took half a month to reach Xianyang, and the waterways they took along the way were very fast, and they deliberately slowed down the road to Xianyang.

Daqin's ship is too fast, and they have also discovered some things during this time, the style of Daqin's ship is different from theirs.

Moreover, the ship was still very stable, and they brought a lot of things, but this ship loaded all the things they brought.

How good it would be if they also had such a ship, in addition to the ship, there were many good things in Daqin.

Especially those beautiful fabrics, which are optimistic and cheap, if they weren't going to meet the emperor of Great Qin now, they couldn't wait to stop and buy a lot of back.

As long as these fabrics are brought back safely, they can make a lot of money.

The various silks they brought back before were sold very well in the Mauryan Dynasty.

Other items of Great Qin were equally popular in the Mauryan Empire.

Why are there so many good things in Great Qin, and the people in the envoy group are not hot.

Thinking so, someone couldn't help but ask.

"Of course, it is the credit of His Majesty the First Emperor and His Majesty the Empress, who worked hard to make Great Qin prosperous." A soldier held his head proudly, Daqin is getting better and better now, and their fortune is also rising, and they will give them gifts during the New Year's holidays, they love Daqin so much.

"You've changed emperors? Isn't your emperor still very young? The envoys were stunned for a moment, they had been to Daqin several times, and they had a deep impression of the First Emperor.

"His Majesty the First Emperor has abdicated, you should have seen the current Your Majesty, Your Majesty was the crown prince before, and he was the prince of Great Qin." The little soldier said enthusiastically.

Zhao Qingrui treats the army very well, and they also support Zhao Qingrui, so they can't help but want to show off now.

"I didn't expect it to be like this, thank you for the reminder from this little brother." The envoy bowed his hand according to the etiquette of Daqin.

"It's easy to say, it's easy to say."

"I don't know if the little brother is willing to tell us about the current Emperor of Great Qin, we want to know more, lest we get to Xianyang when the time comes, and we will commit the taboo of Emperor Great Qin." The envoy took an agate bead and put it in his hand and asked.

"There is nothing that cannot be said, Your Majesty ascended the throne at the beginning of this year." These soldiers, they have already said hello above, as long as they don't divulge military secrets, as well as the various technologies that Great Qin has, the rest can be said casually.

Of course, you have to be on guard against these people.

Listening to Xiaobing's narration, these people were very emotional, how good it would be if their monarch did the same.

The current relics believe in Jainism, and the Mauryan Dynasty has become a miasma.

Compared with the current Peacock Dynasty and Great Qin, there is a world of difference.

Envy is the word, they are already tired of saying.
