Daqin: The poorest prime minister, the first emperor begged me to corrupt

Chapter 104 I, it's too late to take the title!
After the edict was read out, the civil servants were collectively stunned.

Especially Feng Jie and Li Si, the two bosses thought they were hallucinating.

A Sangong and a Jiuqing, accompanied by the two highest-ranking officials among the hundred officials, were thrown into the wild inland of Baiyue.
"The Zhao government order is waiting."

Feng Jie grabbed Zhao Gao who was about to return to the imperial tent after reading out the edict, and said hesitantly, "This...is this edict initiated by Your Majesty?"

Li Si was more direct, and said with a black face: "There must be a villain!"

All the civil servants also had evil eyes, let Nai Weng know who is pushing His Majesty to send us out, and he will definitely be skinned and cramp!
Zhao Gao looked secretly amused, he knew that even if he didn't say anything about it, the civil officials would figure it out when they turned around, so he didn't mind selling their favors.

Therefore, he smiled and said bluntly: "This imperial edict was proposed by Prime Minister Qin, and His Majesty accepts it!"

Civil officials: "..."

All the civil servants seemed to have been poured a basin of cold water on their heads, and the evil spirit in their eyes went out instantly.

Feng Jie and Li Si looked at each other, losing their temper.

They don't want to govern the tribes of the Yue people. In fact, it's not because they are afraid of hardship or tiredness. It is impossible for officials who shrink back when encountering problems to win the appreciation of Yingzheng, and to accompany them on tour in the center.

However, a good central official was suddenly dispatched and became a worthless magistrate, or a magistrate who governed Manyue, and no one could bear this matter.

After all, not everyone is like Qin Mo, and the position of prime minister just resigned...

"The land of Baiyue is short of governing officials, and it is difficult to transfer from the territory of Daqin for a while. We can all understand, but we can't send out all the civil servants who accompany us."

"We are all going to govern the tribes of Yueren, who will assist His Majesty in handling government affairs?"

"Of course, this edict is inappropriate, it is greatly inappropriate!"

The civil servants resolutely began to find excuses to evade the edict.

Feng Jie and Li Si also nodded frequently, interjecting a sentence from time to time, playing the side drum for the younger brothers.

Zhao Gao's brain was buzzing from their quarrel, and he immediately spread his hands: "Masters, what's the use of telling me these words? I, the CRRC Commander, is only in charge of driving affairs, and can't interfere with other things!"

The implication of these words is, don't force me, it's useless to force me, if you have the ability, go to His Majesty and Prime Minister Qin.

Everyone looked at the imperial tent not far away, and the adjacent prime minister's tent, and then looked at each other and exchanged glances.

In the end, either lowered their heads, or raised their heads to look at the sky, all meditating, waiting for someone else to show up...

Their prevarication excuses are nothing but self-deception.

Among the accompanying officials around Yingzheng, not only civil servants, but also a lot of military generals, do they just eat dry food?
It should be noted that officials in the pre-Qin period, or talents educated by elites, had no obvious boundaries between civil and military, and could even be called a seamless transition.

Military generals to civilian officials, civil officials to military generals, it just depends on the need!
For example, Qin Mo of Wu Zhuanwen.

For example, Zhang Han, who turned from Wen to Wu.

Including Wang Ben, who considers himself to be a military general from the beginning to the end, if he is allowed to serve as a doctor or court officer, will he be worse than Feng Jie and Li Si?

"Governing the Yue people tribe is equivalent to participating in the battle to conquer Baiyue. We want to ask for an appointment, but we can't ask for it..."

"It's good for the other generation, but instead of excuses, they don't take the military merits sent to them. I really don't know what to say!"

"Could it be that if you become a civil servant, you will be contaminated with the conservative habit of being self-confident?"

The military generals were watching the fun beside them, they were amused but envious, and couldn't help but sneer.

The civil servants all had black faces: "You guys know a lot, don't make sarcastic remarks."

Seeing the smell of gunpowder rising, Zhao Gao hurriedly smoothed things over and said, "Everyone, stop arguing, and go back quickly to pack your luggage, so as not to delay the departure time and offend Prime Minister Qin."

The civil servants had no choice but to leave angrily, and went back to their tents to pack their bags.

……

……

At noon, the Yue people of the nine ethnic groups escorted five thousand prisoners of war, left the imperial camp, and took the food, grass and armor supported by Yingzheng, and set foot on the mountain road in a mighty way.

Of course, there are also reluctant civil servants, as well as a large number of accompanying interpreters!

"Your Majesty, how to deal with these five thousand prisoners of war?"

Zhang Liang rode his horse to inspect the rushing team, then returned to Qin Mo's side and asked.

He, Kui and other ten people have changed their shotguns now. They all wear the Qin army's standard iron armor dyed blood red, and ride tall bay red war horses.

Say goodbye to the shame of wearing underpants and stuffed grass!
"Can you identify the rebellious boy who reported to King Panyu?" Qin Mo asked casually.

Zhang Liangyi said, "After two days of interrogation, it has been identified that it is a tribe called the Black Niu Clan. The chief shaman of the clan immediately informed the Panyu court after receiving the invitation from the lord. "

He still handles affairs very properly, he has already finished what he should do, and only waits for Qin Mo to deal with it.

Qin Mo pondered for a while, and asked, "Have the members of the Black Bull Clan ever participated in the denunciation?"

Zhang Liang shook his head: "I haven't participated in it yet, the Hei Niu Clan shaman is the grandfather of Prince Panyu, and he refuses to inform the clan about the invitation of the prince and marquis."

The Yue tribe doesn't know the ethics of husband and wife, father and son, but when it comes to the class of the Panyu royal family, it is impossible to remain so chaotic.

In fact, the civilized degree of the royal class is not much worse than that of the princes of the Warring States Period!

Qin Mo suddenly nodded: "Then kill the Black Bull Clan witch chief to make an example to others."

"However, instead of killing them now, wait until the border of the Tieshan clan is settled, and then the canonical punishment will be announced publicly."

"As for the remaining prisoners of war, they can be detained on the way, but they don't have to be harshly treated. Clothing and food are provided according to the standards of Yue soldiers!"

"Here."

Zhang Liangyi took the order with his hands, turned back to look at those civil servants who were frowning, and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, these old men are so passive, and ordering them to govern the tribes of the Yue people may backfire."

Qin Mo also looked back, and said with a smile: "You underestimate Qin Fa's supervision of the officials, and you will be diligent when you take office."

Zhang Liang couldn't help laughing, bowed his hands noncommittally, and rode his horse to inspect the team again.

Qin Mo slowed down the speed of the sweaty white horse under his crotch, and walked side by side with Feng Jie Li Si who was the leader: "Masters, this trip is to make contributions and expand the territory for our great Qin. In the future, it will be famous forever and be blessed." Future generations, why are you frowning?"

Feng Jie was stubborn without desire, and resentfully said: "Mr. Qin, why bother to ask questions knowingly? We are high-ranking officials of the Central Committee, but in a flash, we have become small officials with swords and pens. How can we not frown?"

As he spoke, he gave Li Si a wink, indicating that he would also say a few words.

But in Li Si's heart, he was not so stubborn. He didn't dare to be tough in the face of Qin Mo, but smiled wryly with a sense of resentment: "Si hasn't offended Prime Minister Qin recently, why bother?"

Speaking of offending Qin Mo, Feng Jie was stunned for a moment, and then looked forward to Yu Ji, who was also riding a bloody white horse, and seemed to have realized something.

"Tsk, I made a mistake yesterday, I made a mistake~!"

Feng Jie pouted, shook his head and sighed.

Li Si was confused and confused, and the civil servants behind were also at a loss.

Although they complained about Qin Mo yesterday and were caught by Yuan Man, they were also complained about by Yuan Man at that time, so everyone was evened out.

Wouldn't it be necessary to settle accounts afterwards?

However, when they followed Feng Jie's gaze and saw Yu Ji, they gradually grinned.

The woman they offended yesterday was not only the eldest princess Yuan Man, but also Yu Ji, who was born as a dancer, and a court visitor.

At that time, Feng Jie belittled Yu Ji's good sisters in front of Qin Mo, saying that the music composed by female officials from humble backgrounds could not be used for driving...

The civil servants, mainly doctors, also quite agreed with it at the time, after all, what the doctors are studying is a court law.

But they all forgot that Qin Mo's closest person was Yu Ji, who was born as a dancer.

The map cannon hit Qin Mo Nilin, if they don't treat them, who will they treat? !

"Qin Xiang, if there is a grievance, there is a debt, and that is what Dr. Feng said, and it's none of my business."

Li Si was very disrespectful, so he sold Feng Jie outright, as if he didn't want to hurt the innocent.

Feng Jiehaoxuan vomited blood from anger: "Li Si, you..."

Qin Mo didn't know whether to laugh or cry and waved his hands: "Okay, okay, the truth is so small, you think too much."

Feng Jie glared at Li Si angrily, but he also dismissed Qin Mo's words, and he said, "My censor, Zhang Cang, questioned Qin Mo's original calculation just because he said one more word in the academy. The technique is still in the grassland outside the Great Wall and has not come back."

Hearing this, Li Si and the other civil servants seemed to be reminded of such an incident, and they couldn't help shivering.

Qin Mo: "..."

Qin Mo smiled silently: "What Dr. Feng said, the truth is simply extremely narrow."

"You only said that Zhang Cang hadn't returned from the grassland outside the Great Wall, so why didn't you say how much meritorious service he had made and how many titles His Majesty conferred on him?"

Feng Jie was speechless for a moment, Zhang Cang and Han Xin were stationed in the grassland, assisting the princes to build a country, the First Emperor was quite satisfied, and awarded titles to others.

Whenever the two of them return to the court, they will definitely be members of the central government or high-ranking generals!
Qin Mo glanced at the civil servants, most of whom were doctors, and said in a slow tone: "The truth is that you are assigned to govern the various ministries of the Yue people. First, there is a real lack of management talents, and second, because you all participated in the compilation of teaching materials for missionaries."

"The truth requires you to experiment with the missionaries' teaching materials on the Yue people first, instill in the Yue people the idea of ​​loyalty to the emperor, and instill the Yue people's soldiers with the idea of ​​protecting the people."

"In this way, after conquering the land of Baiyue, people's hearts should be stable, and there will be no worries of rebellion!"

All the civil officials looked at each other, and finally got serious, Qi Qi raised his hand and said: "Don't worry, Prime Minister Qin, we will definitely obey, and instill the teaching materials and thoughts of the missionary officer into the people under the rule of Yue."

"There's work over there!"

Qin Mo bowed his hand to return the salute, and then stopped talking, and rode his horse to catch up with Fusu, Yuji, Lu Zhi and others in front of him.

The depression in the hearts of all civil servants is gone, and they only feel happy.

Only Feng Jie and Li Si looked at each other and shook their heads wryly.

It is true that most of the accompanying civil servants participated in the compilation of teaching materials for missionary officers, but they were busy with daily affairs and accompanied Ying Zheng to deal with state affairs, so they didn't have a lot of free time, but they didn't participate at all.

So in the final analysis, Qin Mo brought the two of them here, to put it bluntly, he still wanted to punish them.

After all, with His Royal Highness Fusu sitting in charge, even if there are officials who are arrogant and do not manage to belong to the Yue people, they can be dealt with directly by Fusu.

The two of them are actually dispensable, at least it seems so now!
……

……

The team walked on the mountain road for half a day, and when it was getting dark, they stopped to camp in a mountain depression.

Qin Mo sent Yue soldiers to guard the entrance and exit of the col, and the surrounding high mountains are natural walls.

Then, set up a simple tent in the col, and it can be dealt with in one night.

You can deal with the living, but not the food, otherwise, not to mention the civil servants and interpreters, the Yueren who are on the road with food, grass and armor on their backs are also unable to support it.

So after the simple camp was set up, Qin Mo brought together young soldiers and Yue women, and personally cooked a meal of pork noodles for everyone.

The meat sausages are wild game hunted on the road, and the noodles are flour from the food and grass supported by Yingzheng!
This is the first time for Zhongyue people to eat noodles, or even the first time to eat wheat products. Although the taste is weird, it is irresistible.

Including [-] prisoners of war, according to Qin Mo's instructions, they were provided with the same meals, and they also ate noodles with meat dumplings.

"Don't eat too much, just feed a few to death."

Qin Mo was holding a noodle bowl and patrolling the camp while eating. Seeing the five thousand prisoners of war reincarnated like starving ghosts, he couldn't help but think of the scene in Manchester outside the Great Wall, and hastily reminded him.

In the past two days, the prisoners of war were in the Yujia camp, and they didn't have enough food at all. If they ate too much suddenly, they might be able to sustain a few of them to death!
"Here."

Zhang Liang was also eating with a noodle bowl, he hurriedly agreed, and went to tell the Vietnamese woman who was cooking to give the prisoners only one bowl.

Concubine Yu followed, seeming to remember what had happened back then, and explained to Lu Zhi: "You don't know, back then the servant followed the gentleman to conquer the grassland and captured more than [-] barbarian prisoners of war."

"Later, the gentleman wanted to use the barbarians to control the barbarians, so he released them, gave them a full meal, and killed dozens of people on the spot!"

Lu Zhi suddenly nodded, and immediately said to the five thousand prisoners in the half-baked Vietnamese language he had just learned: "Hungry and overeating for a long time, it is easy to be stuffed to death, today I only eat a bowl of padding, and there will be every day in the future. Eat whatever you want."

As a goddess, she is managing Yue people, so speaking at this time is naturally useful.

The five thousand prisoners of war were overwhelmed, and they put down their bowls together, bowed to Qin Mo and Lu Zhi, and shouted: "I will obey the teachings of the gods."

Qin Mo waved his hand to signal them to get up, and asked while eating, "Do you want to be full every day from now on?"

The five thousand prisoners of war immediately nodded desperately. For them, eating enough was probably the happiest thing in life.

Qin Mo asked again: "Do you still remember the words that I yelled to you before the battle between our two armies the day before yesterday?"

Five thousand prisoners of war nodded desperately again, that was simply too impressive.

Especially the phrase 'always have enough to eat and always have clothes to wear', for them, it is a life that they dare not dream of.

Qin Mo smiled and said, "Since you still remember, let's join the deity there, it's not too late now."

"In the future, the deity will lead you to reclaim the fields and build armors, and go to cut off the head of King Panyu."

"You will always have enough food and clothing!"

Five thousand prisoners of war prostrated themselves on the ground again, and said reverently: "May I worship the gods for generations to come~!!!"
