Every time I wear it quickly, there are always big guys giving it away.

"Mr. Xu, why do you want to change direction? I think that returning the original route will allow us to reach Kyoto as soon as possible."

General Huang Ce listened to the suggestion of Xu Wenzhou, an aide to Prince Changping - instead of taking the official road, take the ordinary road instead.

They came from Kyoto and took the official road all the time, so why did they change the route on their return trip?

This increases the risk of the return trip.

"General Huang, do you remember what the prince told us when we set out?" Xu Wenzhou asked instead of answering.

General Huang pondered over it, and suddenly realized, "I didn't expect the prince's deep meaning..."

Before leaving, the prince only gave a few simple words, which translated into punishing corruption and evil, and the more money the better.

When they arrived, they had already eliminated a group of bandits and officials and gentry who were endangering the village along the way.

If you return the same way, you will get little results. It is better to change the route, which may bring you new gains.

Then, General Huang Ce was sincerely convinced, "Mr. Xu is worthy of being the prince's first counselor. Huang admires him!"

"I don't deserve it, I don't deserve it." Xu Wenzhou tried hard to overcome his arrogance.

When he thought of Xingnan, the corners of his mouth drooped.

He has a strong competitor!

Huang Ce saw that Mr. Xu's expression changed into a palette, sometimes he was smug, sometimes he sneered, and finally he returned to his seat and calm.

Huang Ce:……

I have something disrespectful to say in my mind, but I don’t know whether I should say it or not!

"If General Huang has no objection, let's continue moving in this direction." Xu Wenzhou held a top-secret list in his hand, which was given to him by the prince when he received the mission.

Xu Wenzhou likes to call it "the life and death book of corrupt officials", "the distribution map of bandits" and "the source of income for Your Majesty".

In short, anyone on the list is the target of their trip.

Kill one, he hooks one.

Xu Wenzhou thought, he was more dedicated than the King of Hell!

Officials along the road: Dare not move, dare not move at all...

Bandits along the way: Move, move quickly!

This year will be a year of panic for them, and every tree and grass will be an enemy!

No one would have thought that the culprit who caused them to either be clean-handed or have their property confiscated was not the regent who hated corruption and was honest and upright, but the current emperor who was in deficit and short of money...

All the officials: Trembling!

All the gangsters: Wash your hands of the underworld and become good people as soon as possible!

In Kyoto, there is a court meeting every five days.

Hundreds of civil and military officials stood in the magnificent Xuan Zheng Hall.

It is said that there were hundreds of civil and military officials, but in fact, after the large-scale purge by the old monarch and the regent, the number was far less than that.

In particular, the Regent has been very active in recent days.

Once the evidence is conclusive, there will be no room for excuses, and the family will be destroyed and both people and property will be lost.

What’s worse, three tribes were exterminated!

I guess the blood stains on the ground outside the Meridian Gate in various places cannot be washed away.

All the officials who passed by were in a panic, but the common people were very happy to see it.

Chen Jia was very satisfied with this group of officials who kept quiet and did not dare to cause trouble.

Today's bureaucratic system has been reduced from its original bloated state to just the right size. In the past, there were five or six people working in one position, and they pushed each other around, but no one was responsible.

Nowadays, the number of officials on duty is just right, and every one of them is assigned to his or her position.

Colleagues urged the Minister of Personnel to submit a petition to the emperor as soon as possible to fill the vacant position.

The Minister of Personnel, who was unable to bear the annoyance, was the first to step forward and proposed at the court meeting: "Your Majesty, I, an old minister, would like to make a suggestion. Should the vacant positions in the court be filled? Or can the imperial examination be held in advance to make up for the shortage of officials."

Chen Jia rejected the suggestion without even thinking about it. "The treasury is currently empty. If we add more officials, it will definitely be a considerable expense. If any of you cannot handle the heavy responsibility, you can resign and we will make plans later."

This is just short of saying it directly: if you are not competent, just step down and let someone else do the job!

The ministers were very resentful: Your Majesty, you have changed!

The treacherous Majesty was completely blind to the mournful faces of her ministers. She gave Eunuch Lu a look, and he immediately stepped forward, waving his whisk and saying, "If you have something to say, please report it. If not, please leave the court!"

All the ministers bowed their heads and remained silent. What they wanted to say most had been ruthlessly rejected by His Majesty. They just wanted to comfort themselves.

"Dismiss the court!" Eunuch Lu shouted in a rhythmic voice, and Chen Jia floated away amid the ministers' kneeling.

"It's difficult..." The Minister of Personnel was so worried that he pulled out one or two strands of his beard. In order to prevent being chased and intercepted by the group of colleagues, the Minister of Personnel left first as a courtesy and performed a disappearing trick on the spot.

"Hey, where is the person?"

"Where have you gone?"

"This old guy runs away faster than anyone else!"

"No!"

……

After all, they are colleagues. They know the Minister of Personnel's ability to seize opportunities and know that this old guy is very cunning!

After leaving the court, Chen Jia seamlessly connected with several tutors and received one-on-one elite education.

Fortunately, she is mentally mature. If any ordinary child of thirteen or fourteen took these classes, he would go crazy sooner or later!

After lunch, she had to set aside time to finish her homework, as her tutor would check it the next day.

Any areas that are not done well need to be redone.

In order not to waste time, Chen Jia always strives to be perfect and tries her best not to let the tutor find a reason to punish her.

After finishing her homework, Chen Jia led a few palace servants towards the imperial study.

You have to grasp the timing well: if you go too early, you will disturb him while he is eating; if you go too late, he may have already left.

After the two exchanged routine greetings, Chen Jia originally wanted to sit next to the Regent as usual, waiting to read the approved memorials.

Unexpectedly, the Regent had not corrected any of the papers. When he saw someone coming, he immediately stood up and gave up his seat.

Chen Jia was caught off guard and was pushed to the main seat by him. "Your Majesty, you have been reading for some time. It's time to get started! How can you get started if you only read but don't write?"

Come to think of it, this is the truth!

Chen Jia sat down with peace of mind, opened a memorial at random, first read the contents of the memorial carefully, and focused all his attention on the matters in the memorial.

At the same time, she was still thinking about how to deal with it in her mind.

After getting the answer, Chen Jia did not write it down immediately, but asked the person next to him, "Uncle, this is what I think... What do you think?"

The regent looked serious and showed an approving look after listening, "Your Majesty is indeed talented. Given time, you will surely become an excellent monarch!"

The praise came too suddenly. Chen Jia was at a loss for words, and her cheeks gradually turned red. "Uncle, you don't have to praise me anymore, or I'm worried that I'll become arrogant!"

Moreover, the fact that this compliment came from the calm and solemn Regent only added to its weight.

"I will always remind Your Majesty and try not to let Your Majesty become arrogant!"

What does the inflated Majesty look like?

Well, it must be cute!

The regent was startled when this sentence suddenly popped up in his mind, and he didn't even dare to turn his head to observe the other person's expression.

A pair of clear eyes were fixed on the memorial, not moving at all, and the voice was old-fashioned and calm, "Your Majesty, before you get too arrogant, continue to review the memorial!"

"Ah, oh!"

Chen Jia realized it later and quickly wrote down a comment that was fully affirmed by the Regent.
