Chapter Fifty-Six: Preparations for the Great War

"The March period has arrived, and the disciples of the Xuanling Sect who are still unwilling to surrender to my Great Qin Kingdom at this time will all be regarded as rebels and all of them will be captured."

"Anyone who dares to resist or shield will be killed"

In the Chengtian Hall of the Great Qin Palace, Qin Hao, who was becoming more and more powerful, spoke coldly, and the aftermath lingered for a long time.

In the middle of March, the disciples of the Xuanling Sect caused trouble in all directions in Great Qin, and they didn't know how many innocent people they had killed.

Even in the heavily guarded Yunjing City, there have been no less than ten assassinations, and six court officials who came in response to the recruitment order died unexpectedly.

Even Qin Hao's subordinate Su Qin was assassinated once.

Of course, the end naturally ended in failure.

"Wechen obeys the order"

Under the main hall, Zhuge is bowing and saluting.

In this matter, the investigation is mainly responsible, and Tianyan and the military are only cooperating, and Zhuge Zheng and I have to be transferred.

"Zhong Aiqing, do you still have something to do?" Qin Hao looked at him and asked lightly.

As soon as Qin Hao's voice fell, Zhang Juzheng came out of the crowd, "Yesterday, the last round of palace examinations in the imperial examination has ended, and the original officials of the major cities have also completed the inspection, and all the available talents have been listed, please take a look."

As he spoke, Zhang Juzheng took out a book of folds from his arms and held it above his head with both hands.

"Submit it," Qin Hao said.

Wei Zhongxian walked down the steps, took the fold in Zhang Juzheng's hand, and then sent it to Qin Haolong's case.

Qin Hao took the fold and opened it to look at it.

The fold is very thick, and thousands of names are densely written on it, and the first part is the candidates for this imperial examination, and the top 100 Qin Hao is still quite familiar, because he has seen these 100 people in this hall yesterday.

The palace examination is the last item of the imperial examination, and the chief examiner is Qin Hao, who is the monarch.

Among these 100 candidates, Qin Hao selected the top three according to his satisfaction with the candidates, that is, the champion, the leader, and the flower.

"Well, send Zhang Baihao to Nanling Mansion to serve as the governor and take charge of the judiciary" Qin Hao looked at the suggestions written on the first page of the fold about Zhang Baihao's appointment, and nodded slightly, "Zhang Baihao is the champion of this imperial examination, with extensive knowledge and outstanding talent, it is okay to arrange it in the palace, but he is too inexperienced, and he needs to be tempered a lot."

As the imperial examination was carried out step by step, a large number of people were injected into the five prefectures, twenty-four counties, and ninety-one counties of the Qin State.

However, most of the key positions are still vacant, such as the government commanders, county guards, and government officials in the third and fourth grades in the prefectures and counties.

Each of these officials has enormous power and is in charge of the life and death of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people, and they cannot be arbitrarily arranged.

What's more, in major cities, there are now two major organizations such as the Investigation Division and Tianyan to monitor them, and there are even security teams for suppression.

You must know that the security teams sitting in the major cities are all mobilized from the four major city gates, and each of them has been carefully selected, not only has experienced battles, but also has no weak strength.

What's more, these three parties supervise each other, and Bai Qi, Wei Zhongxian, and Zhuge Zheng, who are superiors of each party, are more severe and ruthless than the other, especially in today's situation, no one dares to break the rules easily.

"Let Wang Yunhe go to Dongyuan Mansion to serve as the government commander..."

"Feng and Sai Feng Mansion as the governor..."

......

The list given by Zhang Juzheng was extremely detailed, and Qin Hao looked at it one by one, and saw where each candidate went, and he was extremely satisfied.

With these capable ministers here, he doesn't know how much less he has to worry about, especially since these capable ministers will never betray.

"Huh, and these guys?"

Flipping through, Qin Hao raised his eyebrows slightly.

At the back of the list, in addition to the candidates for this imperial examination, there are hundreds of names.

These people are the city lords, deputy city lords, and city guard commanders in the major cities.

These people were dismissed from their posts at home after Qin Hao decided to take back the power of the city, waiting for the review of Tianyan.

Now that a few months have passed, everything that should be investigated has been checked, and Qin Hao ordered Zhang Juzheng and others to screen out some available people from them according to the intelligence and reuse them.

"Although most of these guys are from families, their abilities and conduct are not bad, but they can also be used"

"And after all, they have been in a high position for many years and have a lot of experience, and they can also bring those newcomers."

Now that more than ninety percent of the officialdom of the Qin State are newcomers without any experience, putting power in their hands, to be honest, Qin Hao has no confidence in his heart.

It's just that the situation is forced by the situation now, and there is no way.

"Well done, let's just follow the above arrangement"

After reading all the folds, Qin Hao said directly.

The content of this twist and turn is the result of the discussion of Li Si, Zhang Juzheng, Huang Xie, Su Qin, Fu Zhu, Sima Guang, Fan Li and others, and there is no problem.

"Wechen obeys the order" Zhang Juzheng responded.

......

At the end of the court, Qin Hao returned to the Sacred Heart Temple.

"I believe that after this time, I should have enough dragon energy"

Sitting on the dragon chair, Qin Hao closed his eyes and sensed the wisps of golden dragon qi in his body, and a smile appeared on his face.

As long as all the talents of this batch of imperial examinations are in place, the Qin State can truly become a normal country, rather than a combination of cities, and the national fortunes will definitely increase greatly, and the corresponding dragon qi will also skyrocket.

"As long as I have enough dragon energy, my cultivation can improve by leaps and bounds."

Practicing the Chaos Dragon Heavenly Scripture, dragon qi is always the most important cultivation resource.

The dragon qi is insufficient, even if there are endless elixirs, it is difficult to improve his cultivation realm, which is also the disadvantage of the "Chaos Dragon Heavenly Scripture".

"Meet Your Majesty"

At this moment, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Qin Hao.

"Want to leave?" Qin Hao opened his eyes and looked at the young man who suddenly appeared in front of him, a strange light flashed in his eyes, "Do you have something important to do when you come to the palace?"

If you want to leave, you are the leader of the Shadow Order, and you will not appear in the palace unless necessary.

"Lord Qi, I want to leave here to pass on information," he bowed down and said, "Just this morning, the Xuanling Sect's new Yuanying Qingling True Monarch has completely stabilized his cultivation and broken through, and now he is practicing that set of combined attack formations with the Xuanling Sect's Jindan, I am afraid that he will attack the Qin State in three days at most, and I am here to report the news."

"Is it finally here?"

When Qin Hao heard this, killing intent rose from his heart.

The war between the Qin State and the Xuanling Sect was inevitable, especially in these three months, the disciples of the Xuanling Sect wantonly slaughtered the people of the Qin State, and even the former monarchs and princes of the Qin family of the royal family came to fight for power and smear Qin Hao.

In particular, Qin Hao's cheap father Qin Tangren came forward in person to announce that Qin Hao's position was not correct and that he was suspected of plotting to usurp the throne.

And the contemporary ancestor of the Qin family, the peak powerhouse of the Jindan of the Xuanling Sect, directly expelled Qin Hao from the family and deprived him of the identity of the Qin royal family, wanting to take back Qin Hao's status as a monarch.

However, they didn't know that the current Great Qin Kingdom was no longer a few months ago.

When Qin Hao succeeded to the throne, they could indeed easily deprive him of his status as king, and even directly mobilize the army into the city to arrest Qin Hao.

But now, all the 700,000 troops of the Qin State have been sent to the four major cities to be washed, and the imprints of the family and the sect have long been cleaned up.

The high-level of the court and the major cities were completely replaced, and many of the families in the major cities who fell to the Xuanling Sect were wiped out.

The reason why the current people recognize Qin Hao's identity as the monarch is because he is Qin Hao, not because of his status as a disciple of the Qin family.

For the common people, the Qin family was just a nominal royal family, and there was no deterrence at all.

The Qin State is not the Qin State of the Qin family, but the Qin State of Qin Hao.

"The Shadow continues to monitor the Xuanling Sect's every move, and once it is discovered that they are going to make a move, then report back," Qin Hao said to Yaoli.

"Obedience"

Bow down and salute.

Assassination and espionage are naturally easy for this profession at this moment, not to mention the existence of two ghosts and gods of black and white impermanence under his command.

Even if the Xuanling Sect opened the mountain protection array at all times, it would be difficult to stop their exploration.

"Well, let's go, then"

Qin Hao waved his hand slightly.

I wanted to bow down again, and my figure flickered and disappeared.

Three days later, where Great Qin and Heavenly Demon Mountain met, streamers suddenly pierced the sky.
