Chapter 59 Changes
The cold wind blows snowflakes floating between the sky and the earth, and the glazed tiles on several halls of the imperial palace are gradually covered with a layer of white gauze.

In the hall below, the blazing charcoal fire released an endless stream of heat. Although the outside of the hall was cold, the inside of the hall was very warm.

Emperor Qing was wearing unlined clothes, his hair was a little messy and he was half leaning on the back of the chair, his expression was lazy and casual, but the look of looking down on the world in his eyes was quite eye-catching.

As the supreme ruler of the entire Qing Kingdom, he has naturally been keenly aware of the changes that have taken place in the Qing Kingdom from the bottom to the top these days.

Leaving aside the people's livelihood and economy, he clearly noticed that the entire Qing Kingdom seemed to be gradually being tightly tied together by a big net.

The feedback speed of the decree is at least [-]% faster than before.

As an emperor, he knew exactly what this meant.

It means that the imperial power has been greatly extended and enhanced.

In the past, when a decree was issued to all parts of the country, it would take at least half a year or even several years for feedback to reach Kyoto one after another.

After subsequent revisions and adjustments, it will take at least several years for a decree to be truly implemented, and it will take an even longer time to really see results.

With the expansion of the postal service and the development of the newspaper industry, both the speed and depth of government orders are far beyond the past.

The imperial power does not go to the countryside.

This is a problem faced by many dynasties.

One is because the people in the countryside are not well-educated, and the other is because the local tyrants control the information channels of the villagers.

In addition, the sky is high and the emperor is far away, so the transportation is inconvenient.

So much so that they can easily change a decree to their advantage.

Playing with the profoundness of the text completely violates the original intention of this decree.

However, with the joint efforts of the postal service and the newspaper industry, this blockade was forcibly smashed.

Let countless people know how big this world is, and know every decree that is closely related to themselves.

Where does the emperor's power to govern the world come from, and it comes from the decrees of the central government.

The smooth flow of government orders naturally means the strengthening of imperial power.

"Post routes, newspapers..."

Emperor Qing was thinking about these two things, and coupled with the many changes that had taken place in the Qing Kingdom these days, he had gradually begun to understand why Ye Qingmei was so serious when she mentioned these two things.

And when he thought about the prince, his expression became much deeper.

"What is the prince doing these days?"

Suddenly, he asked.

On the side, Eunuch Yao hurried over and said in a low voice: "The prince has been staying in the East Palace for the past few days, and seems to be seeing medical skills. Because the startled salamander is protecting his body, it is difficult for our people to get close."

"Medical books?" Emperor Qing was slightly surprised, and said, "What about political affairs?"

Eunuch Yao hesitated for a moment, and said: "The crown prince should not have dealt with any political affairs, and now Gao Lishi is in charge of the postal affairs."

"No business!"

Emperor Qing snorted coldly, and then silently recited the names of Gao Lishi and Jingxi.

He had some impressions of Gao Lishi. Before working with the queen, he didn't see much talent. He didn't expect that after being sent to the East Palace, he took up the post for only three months, and he was able to handle the complicated postal affairs in an orderly manner. It really exceeded his expectations.

But he was quite concerned about the startled salamander.

A rank nine master cannot be cultivated casually.

"How about the investigation of the origin of the startling salamander?"

Eunuch Yao thought for a while, and said: "According to the investigation, this startling salamander is from Quan County, Muzhou. His parents died when he was young, and he was sold to Fengzhou by his uncle. The Anji Hall specially set up under the name of Donggong for the relief of poor orphans was valued by the crown prince. He seemed to have some talent, and was sent to Jianlu in Dongyi City to study for a few years, and then disappeared for a few years. Appeared next to the prince as a high-ranking expert, and was appointed by the prince as the commander of the guards of the Eastern Palace."

"He's lucky!" Emperor Qing said a little unhappy.

Ninth-rank swordsmen who are only in their twenties, I'm afraid they can't find a few in the whole world.

Li Chengqian was able to find such a talented person from a group of orphans, it was tantamount to luck.

"Hmph, Anjitang, in the name of saving Angu's life and raising the dead, it's shameful to call it Anjitang!"

He naturally knew the way of it, so he sweared a few words rarely, venting some of the boredom that had been suppressed in his heart for a long time.

Eunuch Yao kept his eyes on his nose, his nose and his heart, pretending to be deaf and dumb.

After a while, Emperor Qing couldn't help laughing, and shook his head. It's really rare for him to lose his composure in so many years.

However, in these years, he has indeed stretched himself too tight.

However, there was nothing he could do about it. There were tens of millions of people in the Qing Kingdom, and there were too many things for him to consider.

Since he is in this position, he naturally has to bear the corresponding responsibility.

The left and right have already lost their minds and politics, so he didn't waste it here, and immediately said: "Show Qianning Palace!"

He wanted to see if there was someone like Gao Lishi around his queen.

……

In the East Palace, on the bed in the Wenhua Pavilion, Li Chengqian lay on Izumo's elastic thigh with half-closed eyes, feeling the light or heavy pressure of the ten green jade fingers on his head, and he felt comfortable all over his body. .

Sometimes, he would think that he might as well just lie in the East Palace and enjoy the throne by stirring up wind and rain outside.

It would be great if there is a computer that can play games.

On such a day, after becoming an emperor, I am afraid that he may not be able to be so leisurely.

At this time, the startled salamander came from the outside, wearing a purple and white striped fish scale suit, which outlined her beautiful figure very attractively.

At this moment, she was holding a dossier in her hand.

Judging from its material and cover, it should be from the Overwatch Council.

Sure enough, when he got close, the startled salamander said softly: "The dossier sent by the Overwatch Council is said to be related to the postal route. The subordinates have already checked it, and there is nothing abnormal."

"Overwatch Council?" Li Chengqian opened his eyes, raised his hand to take the file, glanced briefly, and roughly understood the contents.

"It's actually this matter? What does that old fox Chen Pingping mean? Showing favor?"

He was a little puzzled, he didn't seem to have much contact with the Overwatch Council.

As for the matter mentioned in the dossier, Luo Wang naturally had already noticed it.

After all, unlike the Overwatch Council's extensive coverage, Luo Wang only served him alone.

Information on all aspects of the post office related to him is naturally the top priority at the moment.

Although he didn't accept and deal with any government affairs related to the post office, in the past three months, the changes, replacements, and influences of various parties in the post office have been clearly known through the net.

 Kneeling for recommendation, asking for a monthly ticket, asking for follow-up reading, daily updates are uninterrupted, thank you readers for your great support!
