Qi Guyu suddenly understood.

If Wen Zhimiao hadn't deliberately reminded her, she would have been one of those women.

She did have some feelings for Xiao Yuanju before, and if no one intervened, it would be difficult for her to guarantee that she would not fall under Xiao Yuanju's seemingly very measured contact.

"In that case, I would like to thank your Highness." Qi Guyu said with a smile.

Yun Zhou took a sip of tea and said, "Lord Qi is clear-headed. Your Highness is just giving a few pointers."

After all, it’s impossible to wake up a love-brained person, like the Queen of Beirong.

She seemed to really love Xiao Yuanju to the core.

I don’t know if he will go crazy after hearing that Xiao Yuanju was beheaded.

But this person is a little different from other love-brained people.

She is love-brained, but not politically stupid.

Otherwise, how could it be possible to unify the entire Beirong.

Yun Zhou collected a lot of information related to the Queen of Beirong, and all aspects showed that this person was a ruthless person.

She almost massacred all the members of the Ulan family, the royal family of Beirong.

There are only a few obedient ones left, and even if she is just a love-brained person, it cannot affect her throne.

Although Beirong suffered a loss at the hands of Tianxuan this time, the Dragon Shadow Guards sent news yesterday that Beirong was preparing to send troops to attack Huyanguo in the west.

Once the Northern Rong stationed their troops in Huyanguo, the northern nomads would have only the Northern Rong as their formidable enemy.

A nomadic people with strong soldiers and horses is not easy to deal with.

Fortunately, the western Shule Kingdom has not produced any particularly ambitious and capable kings in recent years. As a vassal state of Tianxuan, Shule is relatively peaceful.

But putting aside the Queen of Beirong's love for Xiao Yuanju, she is also ambitious.

Yun Zhou could only comfort himself that Beirong would be difficult to deal with regardless of whether Xiao Yuanju was there or not.

Qi Guyu has now started working at the Supervisory Commission.

After entering the Supervisory Office, Qi Guyu realized that the situation there was very different from what she had heard before.

The Supervisory Commission supervises all officials, but it is not that shady.

Of course, such an institution ultimately depends on how the emperor uses it.

If the emperor only uses them as his own spies to collect dirt on officials, that is indeed not advisable.

This is what Wen Huai's father did, and that's why Shi Guanchao was looked down upon and even reviled by all officials at the beginning.

When the Supervisory Council came into Su Qingluo's hands, she did not use it in this way.

Although the Supervisory Yuan supervises all officials, generally speaking, its duties overlap with those of the Censorate.

Yun Zhou even thought that it would be okay to merge the two into one.

But Su Qingluo said that it would be better to keep it so that it could serve as mutual evidence.

Yunzhou said that if this were the case, the official system would only become more and more complicated.

Su Qingluo felt that it made sense, but in the end she still did not combine the two into one.

After all, we still need to have a serious discussion.

What's more, the head of the Supervisory Yuan now has great power, equivalent to a deputy prime minister, and the established institution cannot be changed overnight.

Yun Zhou also knew this truth, so he did not argue with Su Qingluo.

After Xiao Yuanju was beheaded, his body was immediately collected and sent out of Xuandu without any further delay.

Wen Rongxue also came to resign. The matter of Xuandu was settled, and Su Qingluo issued an edict to confer Wen Rongxue as the Prince of Shun. The ministers wanted to object, but in the end their opposition was ineffective.

This time, Xuandu was able to avoid a war, and even the entire Tianxuan was able to avoid a war thanks to the soldiers mobilized by Su Qingluo.

Not to mention the Red Tassel Army, the Qingzhou Army that Qi Taihong originally wanted to transfer to Beijing was blocked by the Red Tassel Army leader Ji Qinghuai. The troops he led were the Red Tassel Army and the former Luo Family Army.

The 50,000 elite troops that Qi Taihong had kept in the northwest were also stopped by troops from all sides.

Otherwise, by the time Qi Taihong made a decision, these troops would have already arrived in Xuandu.

The troops have arrived all the way at Xuandu and are at the gates of the city. It is no longer a matter of Qi Taihong saying no and then not rebelling.

Qi Taihong was able to compromise at the last moment because his main forces had not arrived yet.

If you think about it carefully, you will know that Su Qingluo must have intercepted it.

And these people naturally need to be rewarded.

Not to mention Cui Suhua, who directly took over the guard of Xuandu City. Although Ji Qinghuai and other generals were not in Xuandu, they still had to be rewarded and given titles.

The Hongying Army was officially incorporated into the regular army.

Upon hearing that there was an invincible women's army, many people were curious about the Red Tassel Army.

These days, the Red Tassel Army assisted Cui Suhua in patrolling the streets to maintain the stability of Xuandu, and also let the people of Xuandu know that there is no difference between women joining the army and men.

There are also many strong women.

It's not easy to deal with these little things.

All the troops must return to their positions, and so many officials have been cleared out, but someone still has to do the work.

It is not easy for Su Qingluo to take the opportunity to lay off officials and institutions.

Although he ascended the throne, he really had no free time at all.

After Yun Zhou entered the Censorate as a censor, he also had a lot of things to do.

The Censorate she was in charge of was responsible for investigating the affairs of the six ministries (civil affairs, household affairs, criminal justice, military affairs, rites, and engineering) and hundreds of departments, correcting their mistakes, impeaching them for major matters, and rectifying minor ones.

Su Qingluo had never taken this aspect seriously in the past, but now that she had taken a closer look, she realized that many of them were just nonsense.

Those who should be impeached are not impeached, and different parties are making random evidence against each other.

The Censorate was once a tool for the North-South faction struggle.

Both want to send people in and both want to impeach the other.

It is no exaggeration to say that it is a mess.

If Yun Zhou wasn't worried that if too many people were fired, there would be no one to do the work, and he really wanted to replace all these people.

But in the end, he suppressed his anger and did not act impulsively. After all, those who could enter the Censorate were not necessarily very capable, but they basically had people behind them.

Every day when Yun Zhou got off work and returned to Zhangtai Palace, Su Qingluo was not necessarily there, and spent half of his time in Hande Palace.

Yun Zhou suddenly realized that the emperor was the hardest-working worker.

If you want to be a wise ruler.

Although he has already sat in the most powerful position, he seems to be subject to more restrictions.

At this time, Yun Zhou really envied Wen Zhimiao, who had fun in the palace every day.

As usual, Yun Zhou sat in the carriage back to the palace after work.

After a busy day, my eyes feel sore.

She was sitting in the car with her eyes closed when she heard Wen Zhimiao calling her.

Yun Zhou lifted the curtain and looked outside, only to see Wen Zhimiao lying by the window and waving at her.

"Are you off work?" Wen Zhimiao asked.

"Well, you ran out of the palace to play again?"

"No, my sister and I went to the academy. Teacher Duan was here today, too. She asked me to bring you a set of jewelry as a gift."

The Teacher Duan that Wen Zhimiao mentioned was the woman who dared to make a phoenix hairpin that they met at the market a few years ago.

Her full name is Duan Yunting. Later, after extensive investigation by the Dragon Shadow Guards, it was discovered that she was of royal blood from the previous dynasty.

In the original novel, the forces of the previous dynasty's restoration did not appear until a long time later.

But Duan Yunting took the initiative to reveal her identity to Yun Zhou, and said that she was tired of the restoration of the country and now just wanted to be an ordinary person and live a stable life.

Yun Zhou couldn't believe this.

As for what Duan Yunting thought, Yun Zhou didn't know either.

But at least she has been very well-behaved in recent years.
