The boss is going against the sky

Chapter 414 Sealing the official!

Three days later, the current magistrates of the ten counties of Pengqiu Prefecture gathered in the Donglai Pavilion for discussion.

The reception of these ten county magistrates by Xuanmen is quite high standard, and they all set up a few low seats in the main hall, just like Wuge received the heads of the five major sect sects before.

The county magistrates had guessed for a long time about the purpose of Xuanmen's convening this time, so they were almost all passionate. Before Shen Qi arrived, they were chatting with each other in low voices, which was quite pleasant.

The county magistrates of Ye County, Mou County, Longtou County, and Penglai County have served for less than three years, and their qualifications are not as good as the other six county magistrates, so they are relatively low-key. Too many expectations.

Not long after, a Taoist disciple outside the hall shouted loudly: "The master is here!"

Immediately, the county magistrates in the palace quieted down, while Shen Qi walked in calmly, not doing the trick of suddenly appearing on the main seat like Wuge did a few days ago - there is no need for that.

After Shen Qi took his seat at the main seat, the ten county magistrates stood up and bowed to Shen Qi together: "See the master!"

The county magistrates omitted Shen Qi's surname and called him the head of the sect directly, which meant that they regarded themselves as disciples of the Taoist sect, and regarded themselves as members of the Taoist sect.

Shen Qi did not refuse, and said with a smile: "Everyone is not too polite, please sit down."

"Thank you, Sect Master!"

All the county magistrates bowed again, and then took their seats.

Afterwards, Shen Qi got straight to the point and said: "You all know that now my Taoist sect directly controls the land of the seven prefectures. Except for the Pengqiu mansion, the other six prefectures will also face the problem of restructuring, and the prefect and other officials need to be appointed by the Taoist sect. We will call everyone today, Just to discuss this matter."

Although there had been speculations for a long time, the county magistrates couldn't help but get excited when they heard Shen Qi say that the meeting was for the appointment of officials from the seven prefectures.

Among these county magistrates, those who have been officials for a long time, such as Ye Shenming of Bihai County, have become obsessed with the taste of power, and quite enjoy the process of transforming a county into a better place in their own hands.If one can govern a land of one mansion and display greater ambitions, it is naturally a dream.

Seeing that some county magistrates in the palace looked at them with scorching eyes from time to time, some held their breath and lowered their heads slightly but their heart beat faster, and some were so nervous that their palms sweated, Shen Qi couldn't help but secretly smiled and was secretly happy.

I think that when he set up county magistrates in the counties of Pengqiu, these people needed to be invited.Why?Isn't it because they are all afraid that Xuanmen will be destroyed by Qingyangzong in the future, and they will also be liquidated?

Now that this worry is gone, and a bigger magistrate will be appointed, the county magistrates who have already tasted the taste of power have naturally changed their attitudes, and each of them is worried about gains and losses.

However, Shen Qi paid great attention to the cultivation of the county magistrates and other officials of Pengqiu Prefecture from the very beginning, so he had a good understanding of the talents and character of these county magistrates, so he naturally had a good idea of ​​who was suitable for what position.

He didn't hesitate, and continued: "I believe that all of you have also read the seven-government political reform plan issued by my Taoist sect, and know the future political direction, so I won't say much about it."

"The land of the seven prefectures needs seven magistrates. In addition, our Taoist sect needs to set up a government affairs hall to lead the affairs of the seven prefectures. All the upper-level official positions are vacant. Since you are the highest officials under the former Taoist sect, you have also worked hard for several years. Even I have made great achievements under the rule, and my Taoist sect will naturally not treat you badly. Therefore, whether it is the official of the Zhengshitang or the magistrate, I will be selected from among you."

After hearing Shen Qi's words, there were almost no county magistrates in the palace who could calm down.

If the appointment of the magistrate was still expected by everyone, then the establishment of a higher level Zhengshitang was completely beyond everyone's expectations.Because according to the past rules, everyone thought that the magistrate was directly responsible to the high-level Xuanmen, and no one thought that there would be a political affairs hall!

Shen Qi's thoughts are very clear - since martial arts is the most important thing in this world, then it is enough for Xuanmen to concentrate on developing martial arts, and there is no need to waste time and energy on civil affairs.It is the best choice to entrust professional things to professional people.

Seeing many county magistrates looking over with fiery eyes, Shen Qi smiled and said: "You don't need to look at me. Although I preside over the selection of officials, it actually depends on your political achievements in the past few years. Every year, my Taoist sect will To evaluate the governance of each county, I believe you should be very clear about how your performance ranks among your colleagues."

Hearing this, almost all county magistrates were poured cold water and calmed down.

Since Shen Qi did not arbitrarily decide on the prefect and the official positions in the Zhengshitang, it would be useless to fight now, because the result seems to have been decided.

Shen Qi continued: "To make a long story short, I will call the magistrates of the seven prefectures first. Fanghu county magistrate Li Boyong listens to the edict!"

Li Boyong didn't expect that Shen Qi would be the first to call his name, he stood up with a shiver, and said in a trembling voice, "Yes!"

"Today, Li Boyong, the magistrate of Fanghu County, was appointed by Xuanmen as the prefect of Pengqiu Prefecture! Accept the order and grant the seal!" Ye Hongmei, who was originally sitting by the side, stood up and said loudly.

Then, just like the last time, Ji Changsheng, the chief disciple of the true biography, picked up a fist-sized silver seal with star-like spots of light from a tray held by a female disciple in the inner courtyard, and a low-grade variegated seal. Lingyu as the shaft and silver thread as the cloth scroll, handed over to Li Boyong with both hands.

Li Boyong took over the magistrate's great seal and scroll, and felt in a dream, because he understood that prefects and prefects are also different, and Pengqiu Mansion is the location of Taoist Taoism, and prefects are undoubtedly the most precious.Although his achievements in politics rank among the top three every year, he never expected that Shen Qi would choose him as the prefect of Pengqiu.

Feeling that Ji Changsheng's eyes seemed to be thorns in front of him, he stabbed himself once, and Li Boyong came to his senses. He quickly bowed and raised the seal and scroll, and said loudly: "Li Boyong takes the order! I will live up to the great trust of the Taoist sect!"

After Li Boyong completed the list, Ye Hongmei loudly announced the appointment of the prefects of the other six prefectures one after another——

"Today, Lu Qingzhi, the former magistrate of Haiyin County, is granted the title of prefect of Weishan Prefecture by Xuanmen imperial decree! Accept the decree and grant the seal!"

"···He Chang, the former county magistrate of Yingzhou, was granted the prefect of Zizhou Prefecture···"

"···Lu Wen, the former magistrate of Penglai County, was appointed as the prefect of Pengfu···"

"···The magistrate of Ye County, Qin Tang, was granted the prefect of Lianyun Prefecture···"

"··· Yan Zhenzhong, the county magistrate of Yuanmu County, was granted the prefect of Yimeng Prefecture···"

"... Li Zhiyuan, the county magistrate of the original Longtou County, was granted the prefect of Jiyin Prefecture..."

The appointment process for the prefects of the other six prefectures was quickly completed, and the remaining three, Ye Shenming, Ai Yun, and Huang Guoshi, who had not yet been appointed, trembled slightly uncontrollably as they sat in their seats.

The three are not only the oldest group of county magistrates in Pengqiu Prefecture, but also a group with outstanding political achievements. In addition, they have an extraordinary relationship with Taoism, and all of them have family members who have entered the inner courtyard of Taoism.

Therefore, if Xuanmen keeps them unappointed, they will not be dismissed.Moreover, the appointment of officials in the Political Affairs Hall mentioned by Shen Qi has not yet been carried out.

What this means is pretty obvious!
Sure enough, Shen Qi stood up next, and said in a loud voice, "Since the former magistrate of Jin County Huang Guoshi took office, he has achieved remarkable achievements and has an outstanding official reputation! Today, Xuanmen specially worships him as the chief executive of the Zhengshitang!"

After Shen Qi finished speaking, Huang Guoshi just stayed on his seat, forgetting to get up.

Because for him, this appointment is also full of surprises - the chief executive sounds like the boss of the newly formed political affairs hall, but he never thought it would be him!
Although his political achievement is indeed stronger than Ye Shenming and Ai Yun, but it is limited; the most important thing is that so far, only one collateral child of his Huang family has become a second-class disciple of the Taoist inner court. It is far from being comparable to the Ye family, even the Ai family.

Then, a flash of lightning flashed repeatedly in Huang Guoshi's mind - could it be for this reason that he became the chief executive? !
Just when Huang Guoshi realized something, he heard Ji Changsheng laughing next to him: "Huang Zhi is in power, hurry up and accept the seal?"

"Yes yes yes..." Huang Guoshi stood up repeatedly in response, turning over the short table in front of him, his appearance was very funny.

However, no one in the hall laughed at him, on the contrary, the eyes of the other nine people were full of envy.Especially Ye Shenming and Ai Yun had other complex expressions besides envy.
