Qing Jialu

On the second day, Xiao Yi, like the second year of the Qing Dynasty, met foreign officials in the Hall of Mental Cultivation after leaving the early court.

However, the difference from that year was that His Majesty had Chief Assistant Shen Jia by his side, and the two went to meet officials from various states and counties together.

The emperor changed his court clothes from the previous court, put on a Taoist robe, and sat on the dragon chair.And Shen Jia sat next to him, and accompanied His Majesty to inspect Daliang's future pillars.

I saw the foreign officials below sitting on the stools tremblingly, all of them lowered their heads, quite restrained.Seeing them, Shen Jia seemed to see herself back then.

Once upon a time, Shen Jia was like them, waiting nervously and excitedly for His Majesty's summoning.But now, he is no longer the little seventh-rank county magistrate, but has turned into the chief assistant of the cabinet who accompanied His Majesty to inspect the officials.

His Majesty called people over one by one, and kindly inquired about the local affairs.The officials who were called stepped forward to deal with it carefully, silently guessing the preferences of the Holy Majesty, and did not dare to speak nonsense.Only Li Yuanpei in the first row was not too nervous. After all, he was an official from the capital, and he already knew the habits of today.

It was Li Yuanpei's turn to answer. After His Majesty called him over, he asked lightly, "How was the harvest in Shaanxi last year?"

"Returning to Your Majesty, last year was a bumper harvest year, which doubled compared to the previous two years." Li Yuanpei replied.

The emperor nodded, looked at Li Yuanpei, and asked again: "Li Aiqing has been in Shaanxi for five or six years."

"Return to Your Majesty, that's right." Li Yuanpei replied cautiously.

"How is the land improvement in Shaanxi going?"

"Thanks to your Majesty's implementation of the 'one-whip method', those big landlords in Shaanxi spit out the occupied fields and distributed them to farmers who have no land." Li Yuanpei flattered skillfully, "Nowadays every family in Shaanxi has land, and every family has land. Households have food, and the common people are grateful for His Majesty's grace."

"I haven't seen you for a few years, but Li Aiqing's mouth has become sweeter and sweeter." After Xiao Yi finished speaking, he tilted his head and glanced at Shen Jia, as if to say how smooth he is, why are you still so stubborn?

Shen Jia understood the meaning in Xiao Yi's eyes, she was depressed for a while, and turned her head to ignore him angrily.

Fortunately, the people below didn't dare to raise their heads, and didn't see the small movements of old Shen Ge and His Majesty, otherwise they would be stunned by their childishness.

After seeing the foreign officials, Xiao Yi asked them to go back temporarily and wait for their orders.At the same time, Shen Jia and the Minister of the Ministry of Officials also began to discuss the placement of these officials.Except for Li Yuanpei, who was appointed by His Majesty to join the cabinet, the positions of the others have not yet been determined.The Ministry of Officials needs to check where there are vacancies, and then arrange suitable candidates based on the resumes of officials.

It was three days after everything was arranged.Shen Jia came to the Hall of Mental Cultivation to hand over the paperwork for the transfer of officials to His Majesty, but Xiao Yi didn't even read it, and directly approved it, and said to Shen Jia: "You can do things, I don't worry."

This is the tacit understanding and trust cultivated by the two monarchs and ministers working together for many years. Xiao Yi gave Shen Jia great power, and Shen Jia repaid Xiao Yi's clean government.

"What do you say about Li Yuanpei's entry into the cabinet?" Xiao Yi asked again.

"It is said that Your Majesty knows people with eyesight. When the officials of the Ministry of Officials inspected Shaanxi, they also praised that there have been great changes and a new look." Shen Jia said truthfully.

"Li Yuanpei lived up to my expectations. In fact, you guessed that your old friend was the best before the inspection."

Shen Jia nodded, "It's not my guess, but what I heard and saw. Not to mention what we saw and heard in Qingshui County last year, Dr. Fan also mentioned Shaanxi in his letter in the past two months. The change."

"Really?" Xiao Yi said sourly, "It's been a year since Dr. Fan left, but he hasn't written a single letter to me. You must have forgotten me."

"He wrote to me, just to you." Shen Jia didn't know how jealous Xiao Yi was, "Besides, he asked about your physical condition in every letter."

Speaking of Dr. Fan, after celebrating with everyone in Qingshui County last year, he resigned from His Majesty and Shen Jia.At that time, Xiao Yihan's poison had been completely removed, and he was recovering very well, so there was no need for Dr. Fan to be on standby all the time, following His Majesty's side every step of the way.

Besides, Doctor Fan was originally from the Northwest, but he was trapped in Beijing for many years away from his hometown.Now that everything is fine, it is natural to return him to freedom.

So Xiao Yi and Shen Jia didn't keep him, but just told him to write more letters and come to the capital to play more when he had time.Later, in Dr. Fan's letter, Shen Jia learned that he had opened a medical clinic in Qingshui County. He heard that there was an endless stream of people visiting the medical clinic, and Fan's reputation as a miracle doctor spread far and wide.

After celebrating with them in Qingshui County, Wei Mo bid farewell to everyone and returned to Xining to guard the border.Since Wei Mo's elder brother was transferred to Tianjin Wei, he is the only one who has the final say in the Northwest, and no one bothers him anymore.After years of hard work, Wei Mo finally took over the heavy burden from his father and was able to shoulder the responsibility of defending the country and the Northwest.

As for Ouyang Xing, he has just ascended the throne, and Xiou still has a lot of things to deal with.So after two or three days of depression, Ouyang Xing regained his strength and left alone to go back to Xi'ou.

It's just pity for Mu Mian, she seems to be fine on the surface, but after returning to Beijing, she is always unhappy and doesn't like to talk to others.The seemingly ruthless rejection at the beginning actually had some impact on her heart.

It is still possible to talk about the delay of scholars.Women's procrastination can't be said.Shen Jia saw that the girl was unhappy every day, but he didn't dare to ask, or even mention Ouyang Xing's name, because he didn't know how Mu Mian felt about Ouyang Xing.

If Ouyang Xing had never married a princess, would she have agreed to Ouyang Xing's marriage proposal?If they could have met ten years earlier and fell in love at the age of first love, would it be a completely different ending?

Unfortunately, there are no ifs in this world.
