After returning to the post house, Zhao Qingrui still couldn't calm down.

Not long after, Dunwei came back.

"Your Majesty, all the information of that family is here, please take a look at it." Dun Ruo sent a piece of information about the family killed by Zhao Qingrui.

Zhao Qingrui took it and flipped it casually, the more she looked, the worse Zhao Qingrui's expression became.

This family is a habitual offender. They often rely on their appearance to attract people from the Central Plains. After cheating the family, they rob money and people.

Zhao Qingrui and the others were unlucky and became the new fat sheep they were looking for. By the way, they fell in love with their looks and wanted to keep them as husbands.

Zhao Qingrui rubbed the center of her eyebrows, the folk customs here are a bit too tough, it's too much to do these things here so ostentatiously.

"Your Majesty, Mr. Su is asking to see you." The maid came to report.

"Let him in." Zhao Qingrui paused while looking through.

"All the things that the family left behind will be confiscated, and all the officials who colluded with them will be demoted to one level." Zhao Qingrui said coldly, in a very bad mood.

Not long after I came out, it was enough to encounter these bad things.

"No, I'm going to pass the decree now." Dun weakly and respectfully retreated. What these people did was not just a simple demotion, it would also be recorded in their files. It would be difficult to climb up in the future.

After leaving weakly, Su Ling came in.

Seeing Su Ling, Zhao Qingrui couldn't help but look away, not wanting to see him very much.

"You all go down." Zhao Qingrui glanced at the maids and eunuchs serving in the room and said.

As they all went out, there were only two people left in the room.

"Your Majesty, please punish me for trespassing." Su Ling knelt down.

After waking up, memories from yesterday came flooding back, which frightened him into a daze.

If he did such a thing to His Majesty, His Majesty will kill him, right?He even angered the Mohists.

"Get up, don't mention that matter again." Zhao Qingrui took a deep look at Su Ling, feeling more complicated.

I hope I can get pregnant once, save trouble.

"I don't want anyone to know about this, so you can do whatever you want in the future." Zhao Qingrui pursed her lips.

"I understand." After two seconds of silence, Su Ling said seriously.

He never thought of marrying a wife, but unexpectedly, such a thing happened.

Oh, what a worry.

"Retire, I still have to deal with government affairs." Zhao Qingrui didn't want to see Su Ling for the time being, and said calmly.

"Resignation." Su Ling retreated, and he also needed to calm down.

His Majesty didn't want others to know, and he felt a little sour in his heart, so let's just pretend it never happened.

Seeing that Su Ling was gone, Zhao Qingrui picked up a piece of snack and ate it, not in the mood to correct government affairs.

When Shang Lian came over, Zhao Qingrui was still in a daze.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?" Shang Lian saw that Zhao Qingrui's expression was not good, and said worriedly, "I'll call the doctor to show you."

"No need, I'm fine, what's the matter with you coming here?" Zhao Qingrui came back to her senses, her eyes fell on the pile of memorial books that Shang Lian carried over, and the melancholy of hurting spring and autumn disappeared immediately.

So many things, no time to worry.

"These were sent by the cabinet, and they need to be sent back to Xianyang tomorrow." These are urgent matters, and Zhao Qingrui needs to make up his own mind.

"Understood, come and get it in the afternoon." Zhao Qingrui was so blinded that he didn't want to talk anymore, the emperor was too miserable.

Zhao Qingrui became more and more satisfied as he looked at the memorandum sent up. Ying Zheng had already set off for the Lingnan side, and Wang Ben was also heading for the Western Region. Now the army is ready to move out when the personnel and logistics are in place.

On the side of Maodun, Zhao Qingrui has no idea about the territory there for the time being. The grassland and Jizi Korean area that were conquered before have not been completely digested.

As for the princes and kings, it is better to wait a few years before they can be sealed. Now Daqin does not have so many resources, and there is no particularly powerful clan emerging.

The purpose of this conquest against Maodun was to kill him so as to avoid future troubles.

The main force depends on the Maurya Dynasty where Ying Zheng and the others went.

Over the years, we have more contacts with the Peacock Dynasty. The basic situation of the Maurya Dynasty has a special person responsible for inquiring information. Zhao Qingrui knows a lot about it, not to mention.

The current strength of the Peacock Dynasty does not pose a threat to Great Qin at all.

It was also possible to choose the Maurya Dynasty as the vassal state in the first place to prevent the Maurya Dynasty from becoming bigger. Of course, there is another important reason, that is, there are enough people there, and these brothers and sisters can go and do whatever they want.

After they're defeated, they'll have enough slaves to do whatever they want.

There are also some plans for this year, which have been discussed before, and are now completely finalized.

Although she is no longer in the court, she still knows everything about the court well.

It was already afternoon when Zhao Qingrui finished reading these, and it was raining lightly outside, and the weather was getting colder, but it didn't affect her much.

Standing by the window, Zhao Qingrui fell into deep thought.

During the days when she came out, Chaozhong was not quiet at all, it was very lively.

Especially those sons, as well as Zhao Qingrui's nephews and nieces, and some clans, some of them are secretly recruiting people.

Recruit staff, what do you want to do?Do you think that there is no successor to Daqin?So your mind is alive?

After becoming emperor, Zhao Qingrui felt that her suspicions became more and more serious, especially for those clans and ministers in the court.

The clan's move was a bit overreaching, and she looked like she was going to rebel.

As for those ministers, everyone looked like corrupt officials to her.

Rubbing between his eyebrows, these problems are getting worse.

Most of the officials in the court are good, at least from the supervision of the Ministry of Officials and the Yushitai, there is no big problem for those who can stand above the court.

The whole Daqin knew about Zhao Qingrui's tour.

Zhao Qingrui's eyes fell on the vast grassland outside. The rain was only drizzle, and the annual rainfall on the grassland was not much, far less than that in the Central Plains. This was also the reason why the grassland people used to plunder the Central Plains.

Zhao Qingrui knows a little about the tough folk customs here, but they still do illegal and criminal things blatantly, and they don't know how the sheriff here manages them.

Zhao Qingrui cleaned up that family and demoted a bunch of officials by the way, which can be said to shake the officialdom here.

They didn't expect that His Majesty would sneak out to play, and even brought those hidden bad things to the surface.

It's all right now, just catch him straight away, and anyone who has anything to do with those people will be demoted.

"Hey, Master Lin, do you think His Majesty will be furious tomorrow?" A county magistrate of the Sheriff's Mansion said bitterly to the Sheriff.

"Yes, you don't manage the county under your jurisdiction well. Now it's all right. You've been demoted, so you don't think of me." Lin Huai said with a cold face. Because of this county magistrate, he was also punished. Although he was not demoted, he was fined for half a year.

It's all the fault of this bastard, I really want to kill him with a sword, the things he did have implicated him.

"Master Lin, you have to help me. You can be considered my brother-in-law. I have given you a lot of good things these years." Li Jin had a bitter face. He also wanted to climb up. If he didn't make some achievements, his official career could be said to have come to an end, and he would even be eliminated in a short time.

Li Jin's elder sister was sent to Linhuai Mansion by him and became his concubine Ji.

Lin Huai rolled his eyes, he was just a concubine, what kind of brother-in-law, don't try to drag him into the water.

"How can I help you? Are you trying to drag me into the water? If you dare to talk nonsense tomorrow, don't blame me for being ruthless." Lin Huai was speechless and didn't want to talk to him.

It's just that this kid will come to trouble, otherwise how can he live so comfortably in the county in the past two years, and even some things happened, but he also covered them up.

Now that the incident happened, he also had to think about how to clean himself up.

He also did some things, but he was not as bold as Li Jin.

Li Jin's sister can't take it anymore, and she will send her back to him in a while, but she can't let this kid affect her official career.

Lin Huai's warning shocked Li Jin, is it so serious?Lin Huai was actually ready to draw a line with him.

Returning to the county magistrate's mansion with a heavy heart, he can only be regarded as the county magistrate now, and he hasn't moved out yet.

However, not long after she came back, her sister Li Yue was sent back.

"Sister, why are you back?" Li Jin was shocked.

"You also said, you can see for yourself the good deeds you have done, and now Master Lin doesn't want me anymore." Li Yue looked at Li Jin in despair.

After she followed Lin Huai, because of her good looks, she would please others. Although she was not the official wife, she was still very much loved by Lin Huai.

Lin Huai even promised her that as soon as Mrs. Lin left, she would be righted.

Mrs. Lin's health is very bad, the doctor has diagnosed her, she will not live long.

Now that she has been sent back, Mrs. Lin's position is completely lost to her.

My younger brother Li Jin was to blame for all this. If he hadn't been negligent in his duties, and colluded with those locals who broke the law to receive benefits, and was discovered by His Majesty, their future would be over.

"Why? He really doesn't want you anymore?" Li Jin also realized the seriousness of the matter at this time.

"Then it's all your fault." Li Yue complained to Li Jin.

Zhao Qingrui didn't know about the excitement here, but Zhao Qingrui had a thorough understanding of Li Jin's situation from Jin Yiwei's investigation.

Many of these grassland tribes were disobedient to Daqin's discipline. In order to stabilize his position, Li Jin chose to make friends with those local snakes and take some of their benefits by the way.

The problem is neither big nor serious, the items collected are a bit beyond the standard, and other aspects are mediocre.

In terms of merit, there is also a point, vigorously introducing businessmen from the Central Plains, and making this place prosperous.

Of course, many of the merchants brought in were deceived by the natives here, and he even protected those natives.

Those local snakes, by cooperating with Li Jin, also showed obedience to the Great Qin system.

It's just that a lot of businessmen who come and go have been cheated. These businessmen sued the officials, with backers behind them, and Lin Huai came forward, and they could all be resolved.

As for those who have no background, they can only suffer from this dark loss.

Zhao Qingrui rubbed her chin, these people are getting bolder, maybe it's because of Li Jin's connivance.

It's a nest of snakes and rats. This Li Jin and the people involved need to change a group of officials. I hope that more outstanding talents will emerge this year.

There is also that Lin Huai, who is smooth enough. These things seem to have nothing to do with him, but he has suppressed many things and never reported them to the court.

I want not to offend the locals, but I also want to climb the ranks.

How can there be such a good thing, this Lin Huai can't be used anymore.

Thinking of the officials who were demoted this time, Zhao Qingrui's eyes became darker. There were too many people involved.

Not only officials, but also those officials have many problems.

"Your Majesty, it's Haishi, you should rest." The maid came over and urged Zhao Qingrui to rest.

"Back off, I will sit down for a while." Zhao Qingrui said lightly.

On the second day, Zhao Qingrui received the officials here. Zhao Qingrui glanced over these officials and remembered their faces in his heart.

As Zhao Qingrui's eyes swept over, especially those who were looked at a few more times, his heart couldn't help but tremble.

"I asked you to come here to be officials so that you can work hard to promote the development of the Central Plains and the grasslands. Look at what you have done. I don't need to explain it to you in detail." Zhao Qingrui looked at them calmly, without any intention of telling them to stand up.

Although she didn't like these kneeling etiquettes, seeing these people, Zhao Qingrui couldn't help but get angry, and she no longer wanted to make them stand up.

"Your Majesty's entrustment has failed, and you deserve death. Please punish me." Zhao Qingrui's cold words made them tremble in their hearts, and they hurriedly pleaded guilty.

"Hehehe, you deserve death. I really want to cut you all down. I let you promote the development of the two places, not to hinder the development." Zhao Qingrui clenched the hilt of Ding Qin's sword.

The people below trembled, not daring to look up at Zhao Qingrui.

Zhao Qingrui had a cold face, feeling a little uncomfortable in her heart. In order to reduce official corruption, she set a lot of wages and various rewards. As long as they work hard, it will be no problem for their family to live a prosperous life.

However, they are still not satisfied.

"I have treated you badly. I have given you money and all kinds of support to make it easier for you to develop here. Do you remember the oath you swore when you were admitted to an official position?" Zhao Qingrui's face was cold, and his sharp eyes swept over these people.

"Remember." A group of people said cautiously.

"Oh, I think you all forgot." Zhao Qingrui sneered.

If they were active in doing things, Zhao Qingrui would not be so angry.

But after they came here one by one, they were alright at first, but under the resistance of some local snakes, they didn't last long before they started to look bad, and they even became filthy.
