Chapter 1452

~8 min read 1,495 words

Qingyang's reporting of officials must be aimed at the target, every arrow must hit the mark, and there must be no mistakes or omissions, otherwise she would face the crazy questioning of the hundred officials of the Yao court. All that meticulous and detailed work could not be handed over to her subordinates; she had to look at every item herself.

How could the mysteries in the documents be hidden from the sharp eyes of this old bird in the officialdom? Qingyang sat up straight and bowed to the west: "One should seek political affairs in one's position. The Emperor entrusted me to supervise the hundred officials, so I naturally want to do my best to dig out the national pests and return a clear and open state of affairs to the nation and the people."

Her words were sonorous, and the Yao King almost forgot that she was the main culprit in the Lingxu City Elixir of Immortality case.

Almost.

Clear? Open? Heh. Both are old and cunning; what kind of righteousness are they pretending to be here? The Yao King nodded slowly and asked directly: "Then, how many more officials will the supervisor report next?"

Qingyang thought carefully: "As for civil officials, there are seven with ironclad evidence, and fewer military generals, two. However, the latest evidence is emerging one after another, and the number may change."

She added: "I believe that after these nine people are filed for investigation, the atmosphere of the entire Yao officialdom will take on a new look!"

This Yao King is old, but his patience is not good. Unlike the human officials in Lingxu City, who could play push-hands with her until the end.

After all, he is still a barbarian on the Flash Gold Plain, and he is still a little bit lacking in skill.

The number she reported made the Yao King secretly shocked:

It's not too many, but too few!

So far, Qingyang is still catching small shrimp and fish in the officialdom. As the saying goes, pulling out a radish brings out the mud; the Yao King is not completely in the dark about these things, and if Qingyang continues to catch them like this, dozens or hundreds would be nothing.

But she only mentioned nine people now, and specifically reminded him that after these nine people are caught, the Yao officialdom will have a new atmosphere.

What does this mean? These nine people have enough weight, and they must be firm supporters of the King! They are his Yao King's iron-clad support.

With Qingyang's current methods, she has already made the entire Yao court uneasy; if she is allowed to report these nine high-ranking officials, not to mention the turmoil in the entire officialdom, the Yao King's power will be greatly reduced, and people's hearts will also be restless.

If he can't even protect his own high-ranking officials, the ministers can only flock to Qingyang.

This matter, the Yao King absolutely will not allow it to happen.

Xue Zongwu died at a really bad time; if he were still blocking the source, how could there be so many broken things now? The Yao King sighed in his heart, but his face had to be pleasant: "The supervisor is fair and clear, which is obvious to all. But things are divided into priorities; my birthday ceremony is approaching, so it should not be too turbulent."

If he is having a birthday on his side, and Qingyang is catching people on her side, it would be too disrespectful.

People are panicked; who can still rest assured to celebrate his birthday?

Qingyang was moved: "The King is right; it should be peaceful and serene during the great birthday, hmm..."

She pondered for a few breaths, and her tone changed: "By the way, I heard that the Luodian Nation also sent people to observe the ceremony?"

She changed the subject, and the Yao King was not surprised. Qingyang came to find him today, and she must have something to ask for.

The request of the request.

The small talk is finished, the machine front has been played, so it's time to reveal the dagger, right?

The Yao King said "hmm": "The Luodian monarch sent his younger brother Qu Ruhai here. He even went to General Xue's mansion to mourn yesterday. The gifts were prepared well, but he wore a red belt, which made the Xue family very angry."

The Yao Nation also uses gold and red as festive colors. Qu Ruhai wore a red belt, and it was already considered polite that the Xue family didn't stop him outside.

"The Luodian people are still so unruly." Qingyang shook her head. "Now that General Xue is gone, the Luodian people are even more unscrupulous. I don't know who can take over the heavy burden of General Xue before his death in the northern border of the Yao Nation?"

The Yao King's heart skipped a beat; it came.

So Qingyang had her eye on this! Although Xue Zongwu was notorious before his death, he had guarded the northern border for many years and did indeed keep the enemy out of the country, so the Yao Nation didn't have to worry too much about the safety of the northern line.

Now that Xue Zongwu is dead, who will fill the defensive vacuum in the northern border? Just after receiving the news of Xue Zongwu's death, the Yao King was

considering this problem, and had basically drafted the candidate, intending to issue an imperial decree.

Qingyang happened to come to the door at this time; what a coincidence!

The Yao King was actually a little annoyed in his heart; he should have issued the decree earlier and not given Qingyang an opportunity.

This old woman's sense of smell is really too sensitive.

Things have reached this point, so he had to reluctantly say: "The candidate has been decided, Yuwen Yong!"

Qingyang said "oh": "A person from the Yuwen family."

"Isn't he among the two military generals you want to report?" The Yao King stung her. "Confirm first, so it won't look good later."

"He is not." Qingyang laughed, not taking it seriously at all. "There are so many famous families in Tianshui City, and the Yuwen family is considered very orderly, otherwise the King could not rest assured to hand over the monopoly business to it."

She continued: "I have a suggestion."

It came; the Yao King cleared his throat: "Supervisor, please speak."

"Yuwen Yong is a good candidate, but he is young after all, and not as venerable as Marshal Xue. If he goes to the northern border, the Luodian people won't be convinced, and there will inevitably be more trouble."

The Yao King's eyes flickered slightly. Although Qingyang has her own calculations, this statement itself is correct.

When Xue Zongwu was alive, he was an old rival of the Luodian people, and they knew each other well; now that a new border general has been replaced, according to the Luodian people's temperament, they might really want to test the new opponent's weight.

They get to know each other through fighting; isn't the balance between great nations finally fought out? No matter how reluctant the Yao King was, he could only say this sentence: "Then, in the supervisor's opinion?"

Speaking of the matter, the supervisor sent by Between Beijia does have the right to supervise the appointment and removal of officials and generals. Qingyang put forward her own opinions, which is reasonable, fair, and legal.

Qingyang had been waiting for this sentence for a long time, so she smiled slightly: "A single tree is hard to support; why not send another military general to guard the border, and let him and Yuwen Yong watch over each other and support each other!"

She also knew that if she proposed to change the person, the Yao King would definitely not allow it.

How could he allow Qingyang's candidate to guard the north alone? Isn't that putting the safety of a nation into Qingyang's hands?

"Oh? Who is the supervisor talking about...?"

Qingyang slowly spat out four words: "General Chongwu."

"Chongwu? No!" The Yao King's gray eyebrows raised. "He is a Bixia person; letting him lead troops to guard our northern border, I'm afraid it will be difficult to convince the public!"

No? Qingyang laughed: "Does the King know where I am from?"

The Yao King was silent.

Qingyang has a great reputation, and the Yao King naturally investigated all her information, knowing that she is not a Between Beijia person.

"I am a She'er tribesman. I was offered to the Lingxu palace as a child to accompany the current Emperor, the Crown Prince at that time, and was later taken a fancy to by the National Teacher of the Qing Palace and accepted as a closed-door disciple." She said softly, "The She'er tribe is north of Between Beijia, cold all year round, and has disappeared without a trace to this day."
