Your Majesty the Empress, I am really not a traitor!

"Yes, what His Majesty said is very true."

Listening to Qin Ji's answer, Xia Yuxiao suddenly felt uncomfortable——

After getting sick, how come his temper has improved a lot?

"Where's Siyue?"

"Siyue is dealing with affairs inside. There are a lot of things to be busy at Huiscale now, and she has some hobbies, so she is busy all day long."

"That's it, then I won't delay, your family...has done a lot for the country."

"Your Majesty, remembering us is the greatest reward."

Qin Ji said with a wry smile.

After sending Xia Yuxiao away, Qin Ji jumped up from the bed: "Lingyan, what did you do? Didn't you just ask for a vacation for me? How could such a big thing happen?"

"I'm just telling the truth, young master."

"...You definitely misunderstood her." Qin Ji was very convinced that although he also wanted to believe in Lingyan, Xia Yuxiao was not the kind of person who would be misunderstood just because of a simple sentence of leave. May have inadvertently written something that would cause her to misunderstand.

"Then, what shall we do, young master?"

"What else can I do?" Qin Ji lay down on the bed again, "Things have become like this, then I will really rest. Oh, by the way, you bring me the official documents on the military. Things cannot be delayed."

It's okay to rest, but I still have to do my job well. There is no room for slow response in military matters. Domestic policies can be delayed for two or three days, but if things on the front line are delayed, the responsibility is not ordinary. .

"Yes."

Lingyan stood up, and then suddenly remembered something: "By the way, young master, how do you feel now?"

"Well, it's okay, what's the matter?"

"Do you want to sleep a little longer today? I'll ask the cook to cook you something delicious."

When Lingyan said this, she looked at Qin Ji with complicated eyes.

Qin Ji suddenly felt that his waist was a little dangerous.

"Well, I think, I don't need to sleep for so long..."

"You need to rest and recharge your batteries. That's it."

Looking at the figure of the other party leaving, Qin Ji felt that the situation was really not good.

Chapter 7 "Serious illness" recovery

Qin Ji actually didn't have much time to rest, after all, it was just to catch up on sleep, and he came to Xia Yuxiao's study the next day.

"Minister Qin Ji, I pay my respects to Your Majesty."

After entering the study, he saluted first as usual.

Xia Yuxiao raised her head and glanced at him, then frowned.

No, why is his footsteps still a little vain after resting?Is it all right?

However, seeing that Qin Ji's overall mental state was still good, she didn't think too much about it: "You came at a good time, come and have a look, the secret report from Wuheya."

In order to facilitate things, Xia Yuxiao specially gave Wuheya the right to submit secret documents directly to the emperor, and her secret documents would be delivered to Xia Yuxiao's hands through a channel specially constructed by Da Xia, in order to ensure safety , the people used to pass on the secret book are the scale guards at the gray scale.This was also the first thing Qin Siyue did when she officially started handling intelligence tasks at Huilin.

Many countries around Daxia, as well as some of the countries that Daxia needs to guard against, are now trying to spread the intelligence network, and then form a complete intelligence system. The first intelligence network that Qin Siyue is currently trying It belonged to the Saar dynasty.

The reason is simple. These Saar people are not particularly sensitive to intelligence, and there is no special agency for handling intelligence internally. Compared with other countries, laying out an intelligence network is simpler. This is also a test of the water.

Qin Ji took the seal and read it.

During the secret compromise, Wuheya explained that he had already gone to the border area, and was going to be responsible for assisting the mobilization of the border troops and condolences to the border soldiers.In the secret compromise, Wuheya hopes to get Daxia's help.

"The defense of the border of the Saar Dynasty is mainly in the charge of the army of the three families. Although these three families are currently powerful in the Saar Dynasty, they have not been affected so far because there have been traitors in the family. The royal family on Thrall's side is reused. There are not many army resources."

Qin Ji briefly introduced the situation on the border of Saar country.

The army in Saar is mainly formed by the major families, and is uniformly deployed and equipped by the royal family.And their border guards don't have many resources, and they are often the first victims to be hit after the war.

This point is closely related to the internal affairs of the Saar Dynasty. The Saar people have dealt with internal issues relatively simple and straightforward until now. At the beginning, because these three families chose to preserve their strength in the face of Daxia's attack, it led to Daxia The army directly entered the royal court, so now the royal family's trust in them has not been high.

In fact, to be honest, the choices made by these three families were correct. At that time, Daxia really moved to fight head-to-head with the Saar Dynasty. If the three families really resisted to the end, they would really fight all their soldiers. , in Saarland, a country that advocates force, these three families may never stand up.

Therefore, these three families can actually fight for it—they know very well what will greet them if they maintain the status quo.

"I will explain to Siyue that after that, we will let our people contact those three families and win their support."

"In this case, things are a bit too revealing." Xia Yuxiao reminded.

"I won't directly use the Daxia people, I will let some of Wuheya's reliable subordinates do this. It is indeed inconvenient for Daxia to expose too much of this matter."

Although Wuheya did not have any followers of her own, she still had a few reliable subordinates, otherwise she would be in danger wherever she went.

"Okay, but Qin Ji, you have to remember that no matter what, Daxia's bottom line remains the same."

"I know, I will arrange it."

Qin Ji nodded and said.

"Well, by the way, there is also this official document. It was originally for you, but you took a rest yesterday, so you stayed here. It is about how to deal with the people who infiltrated from the church."

"Oh, this one."

Before, the Great Xia Gray Scale Department had conducted a round of "cleaning" of the country, the main targets were the spies infiltrated by foreign countries into the Great Xia and the personnel who secretly worked for the church.There are still quite a few found out.

"In fact, we have already punished some of them before, but there are still some serious cases that still need to be judged separately. Some ministers mean that we are now implementing a strategy for Saarland. It is best not to do it at this time. And the escalation of the situation in the church, those people can receive a symbolic sentence."

Xia Yuxiao took out the memorials of some ministers and asked Qin Ji to take a good look.

"What does His Majesty think?"

"I'm hesitating right now."

Indecisive?It's just hard to say, so I want to ask him.

Qin Ji thought for a while, and then pointed to the names of the ministers on the memorial: "These ministers are still very loyal to the country. They proposed such a way of handling for the sake of the country. But according to my suggestion, if it is symbolic The penalty will have a great impact on the court's prestige among the people. We have just won the war in the west, but now the penalty is not enough, and the people will inevitably have doubts about the outcome of the battle."

"However, what if you really have a bad relationship with the church?"

"Your Majesty, you don't have to worry about it," Qin Ji smiled. He stood up and pointed to the map hanging in the study. "The church doesn't want to fight us again right now. Because they know very well, If we fight again, it’s okay to win, but if we lose, the prestige of the church itself will plummet, and it will create fear for the believers towards our country.”

Just imagine, you have been instilled with the idea that the god you believe in has blessed you, and you have always believed that your god has always blessed you.

Then, you were very high-spirited and formed a huge army in the name of God, but you were beaten by a country to make peace.

The second time you are not reconciled, start fighting again.But what?What would you think if you lost?

My Lord bless me, but I came back disgraced twice.

What does this mean?Explain that either the Lord's blessing is for the opposite side, or the opposite side is the devil's army, or...the Lord is punishing us.

No matter which explanation it is, it is quite scary to a devout believer.

"Besides... those countries that can help the church support a large-scale battle did not reap the benefits last time. Whether they are willing to draw their own blood to support the church's jihad immediately this time is still a question. a question."

Squeeze the wool, you can't catch a sheep and continue to squeeze it tomorrow after you finish it today.

"Your Majesty, I am not worried about the further deterioration of the relationship with the church. What I am concerned about now is whether the influence of the domestic church can be eliminated as much as possible. This cleansing is enough to prove that our country was deeply infiltrated by it before, but, It is impossible for us to stare at every subject of Great Xia, so..."

"So, the most important thing is to allow the subjects of Daxia to recognize Daxia, right?"

Xia Yuxiao understood what he meant.

"Exactly."

"You don't have to worry about this matter. I have already sent people to do it. You said before that you hoped that the people of Daxia would have the most basic education, including literacy. I also asked Prime Minister Long to help sort out the education. What you want, what you want, is also in it."

Having said this, Xia Yuxiao pointed to a large cabinet on the other side of her study: "Here, what you want to see should be in the second grid on the left on the third floor. If you want to see it, you can find it yourself. "

Chapter 8 Men and women match, work is not tired

Ever since Qin Ji came to this world, he realized a problem.

That is, although I am indeed a time traveler, people in another world have no worse brains than me.

Take Xia Yuxiao as an example, Qin Ji does hold a lot of power, and at the same time handles a considerable number of important state affairs, but Xia Yuxiao handles a large part of it herself. In these matters, the ministers below They often have different opinions, and sometimes they can't even rely on the minister, and it's all up to her to make decisions.

And she handled most of them well, but unfortunately she is a female emperor, if she were a man, the implementation of various decrees would definitely be smoother.

In fact, Qin Ji didn't push for such things as educating the common people and engaging in "basic education". It was the dead King Rongsheng who proposed the idea of ​​basic education. Before Wang died, he had improved the specific plan and made it implementable.

Later, Qin Ji just made some changes and proposed this suggestion to Xia Yuxiao.He hardly cared about the rest of the matter.

On the contrary, Xia Yuxiao added more material to it, which is enough to show that the local aborigines are not stupid—or in other words, they feel that since they came to this world from an "advanced world", they can rely on the little knowledge in their minds. Going to the Hanghammer Aboriginal, this is the real stupidity.

"Since your Majesty, you have already made preparations in advance, then I don't have to worry about it."

"You don't have to worry about it. I'm not a fool. Since we want to educate the people, in addition to basic knowledge, we must also publicize what the court wants to publicize. Otherwise, the original intention of enlightenment will not be achieved." Xia Yuxiao continued Reviewing the memorial, said.

"Your Majesty Shengming."

She did the job, and saved herself from wasting energy. Although in theory he should fight for this power and then control the domestic education power, but now he is really too busy.

Xia Yuxiao approved a memorial, then raised her head and stretched her neck: "Qin Ji, the consultant Cheng has basically checked everything that needs to be checked, and my next idea is to send him to Supervise the digging of the canal."

When Qin Ji heard this thought, he immediately sighed with emotion.

This Xia Yuxiao is really catching someone to death. During this period of time, the consultant Cheng has been running around, investigating cases everywhere. He just brought down a bunch of local emperors here, and now he is immediately asked to supervise the canal. matter.

This canal was a major project approved by Xia Yuxiao himself. Even in the war before, there was no loss of money and food on the canal. Now that the consultant Cheng is going to monitor it, it is obvious that he will be promoted.

"Your Majesty, is the consultant Cheng promoted a little too fast?"

Qin Ji reminded.

Although the consultant Cheng was indeed a knife used by him and Xia Yuxiao to beat those officials and local forces, but the knife can't just cut people down at every turn, there will be problems if they are promoted so fast.

"That's what they persuaded me when they questioned me making you king."

Xia Yuxiao glanced at him calmly.

"Ah this..."

"Qin Ji, maybe you think he's promoted too fast, but in my opinion, he's already slow compared to your subordinates." When Xia Yuxiao said this, her tone was a little cold, " Li Shijing under your command, how old is he now? What position is he in? What position is your satellite general in now?"

"Your Majesty, I do attach importance to them, but I just gave them a chance to display their talents, and their promotion is ultimately due to their own abilities."

Qin Ji replied.
