The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Chapter 562: : Suitable candidate for Shangshu of the Ministry of Industry

Qin Jun has already hit outside the city of Emperor Zhao's, and his soldiers are coming down the city!

   After learning the news, Xiao Rui sighed with emotion for Qin's general Bai Meng's leadership, and admired Qin's toughness, and hurried to the Hall of Nourishment.

   When he came to the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart, his Majesty has not yet come down. It seems that the destruction of the State of Zhao is imminent and aroused his great attention. Although there is a Qijiang block in the center, how to deal with it in the future needs to be arranged one by one.

   Xiao Rui and Yan Xiaoxiao were chatting. After waiting long, Emperor Xia returned to the Hall of Nourishing the Heart.

   "You just got married and did not enjoy it. It seems that you have heard about the situation in the State of Zhao." Emperor Xia sat in the dragon chair.

   Xiao Rui smiled and said: "The seven kingdoms have been standing side by side for more than three hundred years. The Zhao Kingdom was the first to die. The sons and ministers naturally care about it. I wonder if Emperor Zhao escaped from the imperial capital?"

   Emperor Xia ordered Hai Dafu to fetch the secret report, and said: "Zhao Kingdom is about to be destroyed, and Chuan Jianguo doesn't need to be so careful to hide it. This is a secret letter sent by his flying eagle, please take a look."

   Xiao Rui took a look at the secret report and realized that it turned out that it was General Zhao State Hou Wenjie who secretly returned to the State of Qin, and his sincerity of surrender was that 200,000 soldiers of Zhao State were captured and the rebels were killed! As a result, Zhao's defense line completely collapsed, and the Qin army continued to fight outside the imperial city. Also because of Hou Wenjie's treason, Emperor Zhao didn't even have a chance to escape from the imperial capital.

   I thought that Qin Jun was so strong just now, and it turned out that the root was here.

   Looking down further, I realized that Hou Wenjie and Chuan Jianguo are friends, and it was Chuan Jianguo who made Hou Wenjie's words for reason.

In addition, Chuan Jianguo also secretly contacted other aristocratic families in the imperial capital. At the moment, the great Zhao is about to be destroyed. If you want to protect the family under the iron cavalry of the Qin army, you will definitely not be loyal to the country. Kaicheng welcomes the arrival of the Qin army. Survive from the dead.

Putting down the secret letter, Xiao Rui said with emotion: "Father, Master Chuan is really a talent. Going deep into the enemy country, not only resisted the temptation, but endured loneliness and loneliness. Now he is infamy and accelerated the demise of the Zhao Kingdom with one person. His work alone is comparable to thousands of troops! It's cheaper than Qin State."

Emperor Xia nodded and said, "Chuan Jianguo is indeed good. This time he surrendered to the State of Qin and made great contributions. The Emperor of Qin had to reward him and buy horse bones for his daughter. If the Emperor Qin wanted to conquer the territory of the State of Zhao, he had to appoint him. Officials of the State of Zhao, the Emperor Qin will certainly increase the reward. Even if the officials of the enemy state will not arrange key positions, it is certain that they will enter the court of the State of Qin and have a place."

   Xiao Rui picked up the brush and wrote the word "Qin" on the white paper, and said with emotion: "Father, the next thing we have to face is Qin."

"Now that the cold is coming, the Xia and Qin countries both need to recuperate after half a year of fighting, and they have to manage the newly occupied territories. Coupled with the Qijiang block, they will not go to war for a year or two. Who will govern the occupied territories first? Okay, let the old people of the Zhao country completely submit and be willing to fight for the country, that's when the conquest starts!" Xia Huang laughed.

   This is also one of the reasons why the Emperor Xia sent Zhang Liang to serve as the Anxi Festival Envoy. He used his ability to manage the 14 states and improve the population, economy, and sense of belonging to the country.

   Xiao Rui said: "Take advantage of this period of time, just to find out the situation of the Qin State, know yourself, know your enemy, and win every battle."

   Daxia and Qin were far apart before, and Xiao Rui didn't even know what happened to Qin. Now it is necessary to understand and layout. Similarly, Qin will also make arrangements.

   Even if the West is stable, the South is the Kingdom of Yan. Now Daxia and the Kingdom of Yan are fraternal alliances. Let the Kingdom of Yan consume the power of the Kingdom of Wei, which is equivalent to the walls of Daxia. There is no need to worry about the dangers of the south. The east is the coastal area. Now Ashikaga Yumi enters the palace. In order to get Daxia's support, Nobita of Ashikaga must step up efforts to encircle the pirates, so the coastal problem is not serious.

   Then only the north is left.

Champion Hou still stays in Fengtian City of Qi State, because after the blizzard of Qi State, the temperature has dropped to more than 20 degrees below zero, and there is no sign of rising. According to this rhythm, this is going to 40-50 degrees below zero. of.

   The history of Qi has never been so cold!

   Therefore, the current Qi country is not only affected by the north and the south, but also affected by natural disasters. A large number of poor people freeze to death, the land freezes, and the crops in the ground die on a large scale. The next year will inevitably reduce production or even no harvest.

Some time ago, the price of food in Qi has risen, and now it has reached a terrifying six-two-one stone. The powerful families of Qi have begun to hoard food, and the hoarding of food has been enough for them to eat for one or two hundred years, but their actions have not yet been taken. Stop, continue to raise food prices and make ill-gotten gains. This is pitiful to the people.

  Qi Huang had long been aware of the problem of food prices. He ordered severe penalties and tried to rely on the imperial court to stabilize prices, but the effect was minimal, because the imperial court of Qi did not have much food in its treasury!

   Qi Guo somehow got some surplus food! Why are you so poor?

   did exist before, enough to support Qi Guo's three or four years, but now it is really gone!

   The four granaries in the south of the Qi state fell into the hands of Daxia, and the granaries in the northern state capital were looted by the Yuan army, and they slipped like a grate. The site is gone, how can there be grain storage!

   Coupled with the influx of the people of Qi from the occupied lands into the unoccupied areas, the demand for food increased sharply. For example, the imperial capital of Qi State, which originally had a population of more than 900,000, has now surged to more than 2 million. It is already overcrowded, and the population is still increasing. Therefore, Emperor Qi has ordered the imperial capital city gate to be sealed off, only to go out and not to enter.

   A large number of refugees and people stayed outside the imperial capital. Now a refugee area of ​​more than 200,000 has been formed. So many people have mouths, and they all have to eat.

   Various reasons have contributed to the soaring food prices in Qi.

  I want to mention that 90% of the refugees in the imperial capital of Qi have fled from the north.

   Great Xia soldiers and horses occupy Qi country. As long as Qi Min does not resist, he will never commit any offence. This is a rule set by Xiao Rui and His Majesty. The Yuan army's transit is comparable to locusts, not to mention food and jewelry, even people will take you away and become slaves.

   Although Daxia got the four big granaries in the south of Qi, he got very little grain. One was that a small part was transported away when the Qi army retreated, and the other was that it was directly set on fire. Yes, I would rather burn it than leave it to Daxia!

  The food storage is gone, the refugees are still increasing, the rich and powerful are hoarding food maliciously, the merchants are driving up prices...Even if the Emperor Qi wants to stabilize the food prices, he is unable to recover.

   Qi Guo at this moment, in one sentence, is that the house leaks and rains in the night!

In such a tragic state of Qi, Emperor Xia would naturally not let Champion Hou brave the cold wind and continue to attack. The contradictions in Qi will become more and more serious. When the people have nothing to eat, they should **** patriot, and in order to survive, they have to fight back. !

   Just as Xiao Rui's thoughts were drifting, Xia Huang said again: "The temperature dropped sharply last night, depending on this situation, the cold weather in Qi country moved southward."

   Xiao Rui replied: "Yes, the cold air moved south, Qi country has dropped to more than 20 degrees below zero, we are not immune here, but the situation should be better than Qi country."

  The closer to the equator, the higher the temperature, but the dimension of Daxia is subtropical rather than tropical, and it will naturally be cold in winter. Now it's the Little Ice Age, and the sudden drop in temperature is inevitable.

   "Your suggestion was very good last time, and I decided to implement franchising! In addition, I will find a suitable Ministry of Industry official letter as soon as possible. Is there a suitable candidate in Huang Er's heart?" Xia Huang asked.

Xiao Rui shook his head and said: "Father, the role of the Ministry of Engineering will become more and more important in the future. Since it is a replacement, you have to choose a suitable candidate. You can't lose the rotten persimmon and pick up the rotten apple. But the two of the Ministry of Engineering. The servants are not capable enough. As for the officials in Beijing who are proficient in the government affairs of the Ministry of Industry, the sons and ministers have thought about it, and there are no suitable officials. Are they transferred from the locality?"

   Emperor Xia nodded and said, "Hai Banban, go to Longyuan Pavilion and call for a scholar from the University of Commerce. He is a ministerial official. The promotion assessment for civil officials comes from him. I want to hear his opinion."

   "Yes!" Hai Dafu went to do it immediately.

  While Xiao Rui was drinking tea and waiting, he suddenly thought that he had gathered a chance to come. If he came now, could he be lucky enough to come to the person in need?

   Just do it!

   Xiao Rui immediately begins to descend!

   "During the advent process, please wait..."

   was the familiar tone again, and Xiao Rui shut down the system.

   Soon, Shang Jin hurried over.

   In the past few days, the Shang Jin Dynasty didn’t think about tea and rice. Yang Feiyuan’s leaving the cabinet was a big blow to him. He had already seen that this was intentional by his Majesty, and he was next.

   He is sixty and three, and now it is most appropriate to choose to be an official to return home, but he can preserve his reputation, and he will not fail in his old age, but he is not reconciled.

   It’s not for himself. He has achieved the top ranking of the cabinet university, and there is only a false title of three men above ~www.ltnovel.com~ so he does not expect himself, but just wants his son to go further.

  His three sons have no abilities, and they have worked hard until now they are the fourth-rank official positions. He wants to mention them before resigning and assign them to a local government to be a provincial governor. Once I gave an official appointment in advance, that hope was shattered.

   Suddenly summoned by His Majesty today, Shang Jin felt his heart burst, especially when he left the cabinet, Li Mingchong smiled and stroked his beard, as if telling him to recognize the situation.

   Entering the Hall of Cultivation of the Heart with anxiety, Shang Jin worshipped: "Weichen Shang Jin pays homage to His Majesty and His Royal Highness."

   Xia Huang smiled and said: "Free gift for the seat."

  While Shang Jin sat down, Xia Huang continued: "Calling Mr. Shang in a hurry, I want to ask your opinion on something important!"

   Shang Jin's heart is sad, it seems that today is talking to himself! His Majesty's smile became more amiable and dazzling, making himself restless.

   "Your Majesty, the Weichen dare not have any opinions, the Weichen is willing to do his best for Daxia and die!" Shang Jin said excitedly.

"Haha...Shangshang people should always be strong and fulfill their duties. I can see them." Xia Huang took a deep look at Shang Jin, and then said: I want to move about the position of the minister, and I have mentioned it to a few elders before. I want to find a talent with outstanding ability, especially proficient in the government affairs of the Ministry of Industry, but I and the prince have been thinking about it, and we can't think of a suitable candidate. I wonder if Mr. Shang has a recommendation?"

   Shang Jinyi was so excited that he almost cried with joy. It turned out that he wasn't talking to himself!
