When they came to Xianyang and looked at the more prosperous Xianyang City, the people of the Peacock Dynasty were completely stunned.

The current Xianyang City is not too far from the previous two years.

The houses here are tall and bright, the streets are full of people, but they are clean, and the faces of the people here are full of hope for life.

Such a situation is not seen in their country.

Several members of the envoy's team glanced at each other, and they all saw shock in each other's eyes.

Two years ago, Xianyang City was still under construction, and although it was obvious that the houses were tall, I didn't expect it to be so good.

Such a Great Qin, if they attack the Peacock Dynasty, how should they respond?

Thinking of this, the mood of several people also became a little heavier.

The officials of Honglu Monastery received these people early, and then took them to live in the embassy, and arranged for them to have the best houses and food.

The houses here are clean and tidy, and they look very beautiful, even if they have high official positions in the Mauryan Dynasty, they have never lived in such a good house, and they are secretly envious in their hearts.

In addition to all the good things in the house, the food delivered by the embassy was even more delicious than they had ever eaten.

Several people quickly ate the food cleanly, and people served a lot of dishes, and they all ate one by one.

"There are so many good things in Daqin." The leader of the envoys sighed with emotion, thinking in his heart the possibility of attacking Great Qin.

Their elephant soldiers were very strong, but the Great Qin and the Peacock Empire were too far apart, and there were many mountains and seas blocking them, so the elephant soldiers could not reach the Great Qin at all.

And if Great Qin hits the Peacock Dynasty, it is estimated that it will be a little difficult, and thinking of this, I feel a little more relieved.

Zhao Qingrui didn't know that these people wanted so much, and conquering the world was the goal of her and her father, but before that, there were still a lot of preparations.

The Peacock Dynasty is too far away, Daqin's communication technology does not allow it, even if you want to send a message to Lingnan, it will take two or three days, the Peacock Dynasty is so far away, even if the current strength is down, Zhao Qingrui has to suppress the heart that is about to move.

I can't take care of it, unless I pull her group of brothers and sisters out to divide it.

However, the father finally abolished the partition, and if it was opened again, the father would not be happy.

Splitting is the source of chaos, and it is not advisable.

When the train was out, she asked them all to study the problem of information transmission.

Fortunately, she had already learned some foundations for Su Ling, otherwise she wouldn't have dared to do it so directly.

Honglu Temple sent a message from the Peacock Dynasty, Zhao Qingrui took a brief look at it, and knew it in his heart.

Most of the things they brought this time were still all kinds of precious stones, and there were a lot of ivory and spices.

Zhao Qingrui is now more interested in those ivory, and is ready to have people carve some ivory ornaments and put them in Xianyang Palace.

In her previous life, she had only seen it in museums and various videos, but in this life she was able to own it herself, and it was exciting to think about it.

Soon, when the envoys came to see her, Zhao Qingrui received their congratulatory gifts, congratulating her on her accession to the throne.

Seeing these people so knowledgeable, Zhao Qingrui was also very satisfied.

Seeing that Zhao Qingrui was happy, these envoys also made some requests.

"Your Majesty the Emperor of Great Qin, I have come from afar, and I am very interested in the various knowledge and culture of Great Qin, and I would like to ask Your Majesty to allow us to go to the library to read and study." The leader of the envoys said respectfully.

If you can learn those techniques, it will still be beneficial to the current Mauryan Dynasty.

"The library, the library in Xianyang has not been completed yet, and there are no books in it, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint the messenger." Zhao Qingrui raised her eyebrows, these people think it's quite beautiful.

Looks like I've heard a lot of news along the way.

These people will be the enemies of Great Qin in the future, if they are allowed to learn the technology, isn't this an enemy, this kind of thing must not be done.

"Your Majesty is humble, listening to the library of Great Qin has gathered countless books, with tens of thousands of volumes, much stronger than our Peacock Dynasty, we really admire the culture of Great Qin, and I ask Your Majesty to agree." The envoy insisted that if he could learn something, it would not hurt to be thick-skinned.

"Your Majesty, some time ago, the stairs of the library collapsed a little, it must be those who built it cut corners, there is such a big hidden danger, it should be punished, but the envoy must not be put in danger." Li Si understood, immediately stood up, and said angrily.

"It is indeed unforgivable, and the edict of the Decree of the Craftsman shall be punished by two months, and the leader shall be demoted by one level." A smile flashed in Zhao Qingrui's eyes, no wonder Li Si was able to win his father's heart.

Lo and behold, she had just run into trouble, and Li Si had found a solution for her.

"Your Majesty." The people below chanted.

directly choked back the envoy of the Peacock Empire who wanted to speak.

"The envoy came to my Daqin, and he must have a good time, where is Honglu Temple?" Zhao Qingrui looked at the depression in the eyes of those people, and a smile flashed in her eyes.

"The minister is here." Honglu Siqing stood up.

"I will treat my Daqin's distinguished guests with the highest standards, and we must not slack off, if the envoy wants to go out to play, he must send a guard to follow him, so as not to encounter danger." Zhao Qingrui said righteously.

Let more people follow, lest these people get some moths out.

"Minister, take the order, the minister will send an official who is familiar with my Daqin affairs to accompany him, so as not to make the distinguished guests boring." Honglu Temple Qing said respectfully.

In this way, these envoys of the Peacock Dynasty were forcibly dragged down, and then forced to travel in Daqin for a few days.

During this period, they also bought a lot of things, but as soon as there was a technology-related thing, someone immediately stopped it, and they couldn't buy it if they wanted to.

The days when they have been watched, not to mention how uncomfortable they are, the people of the Peacock Dynasty are as uncomfortable as eating flies.

They sent so many treasures to Daqin, but Daqin's people still guarded them like thieves, which was really too much.

"What do you mean by that? We just want to visit the textile mill, so you're going to be on guard against us? You Daqin don't lack this thing, as for that? Aren't you the benevolent ancient kingdom of the East? The messenger asked loudly.

"Don't worry, messenger, mercy also depends on people, don't you, those gems you send are very common on your side, those ivory, your elephant soldiers, can tame elephants, this is not a valuable item for you, you are sending such ordinary things, why should we give you precious technology?" Honglu Temple Shaoqing shook the folding fan in his hand and smiled.

He liked the folding fan in his hand very much, and since the folding fan became popular, he took out the sandalwood he had hidden, and asked someone to spend a lot of money to make a handful, and the words on it were still mentioned by him.

Since he had this folding fan, he has not left his hand except for sleeping and eating.

He had no opinion on being arranged to receive these envoys, but these people were always making trouble, which made him very unhappy.

These people were immediately embarrassed, and the precious thing they sent over was ivory.

After all, it is also a troublesome thing to tame an elephant, and it is impossible to tame it casually.

These ivory are also in demand in the Peacock Dynasty, and these sent to Daqin this time are not small, but they are also relatively precious.

However, there are so many good things in Daqin, as long as they learn a few things casually, they will definitely be able to make a lot of money.

"But, we just want to see, there's no need to be so guarded against us, right?" The leader of the envoys said dissatisfiedly, and his voice was lowered.

"Less, it's you, right, I see your hand moving all the time, are you remembering something? You see that these things can be bought, and if you want technology, you can't. Honglu Temple Shaoqing said lightly.

His words immediately silenced the group of people, they were indeed recording Great Qin's things.

The person he pointed at had a good memory, and as long as he had seen something, he could basically write it down.

That's why they offered to go and see the mills, and if they saw something that they were weaving fast, they could go back and make it.

As long as you bring it back, it's not just a way to make money, it's a great achievement.

I didn't expect it to be noticed by the people of Great Qin, and sure enough, it is worthy of being a mysterious ancient country in the East, which is indeed powerful.

In the end, they parted unhappily, and these people honestly returned to the embassy.

Zhao Qingrui sat in the Zhangtai Palace, listening to the report of the people from Honglu Temple, and knew it in his heart.

"Those who secretly punish those who have been punished will make amends from other places." Zhao Qingrui glanced at the public loss Yu Dao, and now the craftsman supervisor is under the unified management of the public loss balance.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, the minister will arrange it."

"By the way, when you go out, call Dali Siqing over." Seeing that the public was about to retire, Zhao Qingrui hurriedly said.

"No."

After a while, Dali Siqing came over, followed by Feng Quji and Yushi Feng Zheng, they all knew that His Majesty was going to ask about the results of the interrogation of those people.

"Since they're all here, let's talk about the results of the review." Zhao Qingrui looked at these people.

"Back to Your Majesty, this is the result of the review, the minister has made a preliminary trial, and I ask Your Majesty to take a look." Dali Temple Qing respectfully presented the fold.

Zhao Qingrui took it from the palace maid, and as she looked through it, Zhao Qingrui's face gradually turned cold.

These people have really committed a lot of crimes, and they have committed a lot of crimes, especially the protection of officials and officials, which is enough to make Zhao Qingrui angry.

"The officials involved, who committed minor crimes and sincerely repented, will have a demerit once, fined them for two years, and will not be promoted within five years, and those who commit serious crimes will all be sent to Liu Ji, so that he can watch these people do a good job of labor reform." Zhao Qingrui said coldly.

This review arrested a bunch of officials, which made Zhao Qingrui very unhappy, she gave such a high salary, and they were all greedy.

even bought off the imperial history of the supervision, and the courage of each one is really big.

"In the future, the supervision of the imperial history platform will be stricter, Feng Zheng's supervision will not be effective, and he will be fined for half a year, and he will introspect at home for three days, and then write a complete set of rules and regulations for the imperial history." Zhao Qingrui looked at Feng Zheng.

"The minister commands." Feng Zai had no opinion on Zhao Qingrui's punishment.

"The Ministry of Rites Shangshu Feng went to illness, and he was fined for half a year."

Zhao Qingrui finished arranging the punishment of these people, felt a little uncomfortable, and waved these people away.

Staying alone in Zhangtai Palace, Daqin's system is indeed not perfect enough, and when the calendar is calculated, the matter of the constitution will also be put on the agenda.

And those who are corrupt are not punished seriously enough, and they must be deterred.

On the second day of the court meeting, Zhao Qingrui asked people to read out an edict, which was about corruption, where the money and property of officials embezzled exceeded 100 yuan, and the file recorded a major punishment, in addition to the original punishment, the three generations of children and grandchildren were not allowed to participate in the official assessment, and they could not enjoy any preferential policies of the imperial court within three generations.

Zhao Qingrui's edict was to deprive those officials of their political status.

Anyone who has ever been an official can see the value of this edict.

As the edict was read, the faces of the hundred officials below changed slightly, and this edict really affected them.

When they commit crimes, it will not only affect themselves, but also future generations.

Many people's faces changed, and some people were happy for a while.

After feeling the taste of power, they naturally like this feeling of controlling power, which can decide the life and death of countless people with a single word.

After becoming an official, not only is the salary high, but there are also many people who are filial.

It's a lot better than before, and it's hard to get them to give up.

It's just that the person who was a little careful to be greedy for something before has secretly retracted his outstretched foot now.

Once you are caught, it is really not cost-effective to suffer yourself and let your children and grandchildren suffer.

"Do you have any objections?" Zhao Qingrui's indifferent gaze swept over everyone below, she could see that blindly being benevolent would not work, only by letting them be within the system and restraining their behavior, so that the court could continue to run healthily.

"Your Majesty, is this matter too harsh?" Zhou Yan stood up and said cautiously.

"Where's the harshness? As long as you don't embezzle, these won't affect you, or do you Zhou Daren also commit crimes? Zhao Qingrui had a cold face.

"The minister did not make a mistake, the minister should not doubt His Majesty's decision, please punish Your Majesty." Zhou Yan was stared at by Zhao Qingrui's indifferent eyes, and cold sweat broke out a little.

For a moment, he almost thought that the emperor sitting above him was the First Emperor.

No wonder the First Emperor wanted to choose her as his heir, just this point, Fusu Gongzi can't compare.

"Then go back and introspect behind closed doors for three days, wake up your mind, and stop talking nonsense next time."

"The minister commands." Zhou Yan respectfully retreated to his original position with a bitter face, and quietly wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

"Are you alright?" My friend asked softly.

"Nothing." Zhou Yan waved his hand.

He also had his own considerations when he stood up just now, and he has also accepted a lot of students over the years, some of whom are estimated to have some problems, and he is afraid that he will be involved.

This time, His Majesty has issued an edict, and after going back, you have to restrain these people more, otherwise it will be too late when you really get into trouble.
