Du Qi and Liu Zhengxi returned to Pingxi Palace, and Liu Zhengxi went straight to his room to rest. Du Qi was also a little tired from running all the way, so he went back to his room to take a rest.
In the evening, Du Qicai woke up. After Du Qi woke up, Liu Jian had prepared dinner for the evening and delivered it directly to Du Qi's room. The meal at night is rice, roast pork with soybeans, and old duck soup.
This is a relatively simple recipe.
In Jiuquan County right now, there are no vegetables and no greenhouses. Because it is difficult to grow vegetables in these places, even if Du Qi wants to cultivate a greenhouse, he will not be able to do it for a while.
Nowadays, the main vitamins are provided by tea and some melons and fruits sent by Chang'an.
Du Qi had dinner and ordered Liu Jian to inform Guo Xiaozheng to come.
Not long after, Guo Xiaozheng entered.
Guo Xiaozheng is now playing for Du Qi, and has changed his mentality, thinking about Du Qi everywhere. After seeing Du Qi, Guo Xiaozheng bowed respectfully and sat down beside him.
Du Qidao: "Mr. Guo, it's about your arrangement to invite you here. I just got a foothold in Jiuquan County because I just came to Suzhou. My foundation is shallow. Many things start from scratch and need to be arranged one by one. "
After a pause, Du Qi continued: "Before you worked for me, there was Liu Zhengxi as my counselor. Before that, he was in charge of the overall situation and had to take care of many things. Now that you are here, you will share one or two for him."
?Guo Xiaozheng said: "You must do your best in a humble position to live up to His Highness's entrustment."
Du Qidao: "The arrangement for you is just one thing for the time being."
Guo Xiaozheng sat up straight and said, "Please give orders, Your Highness."
Du Qidao: "Jiuquan County today has brought order out of chaos, and everything is recovering rapidly. However, although it has recovered now, there may still be many unreasonable and even corrupt officials in the local area or in the county. Condition."
"So your task is to form a team to be responsible for picketing corruption and investigating unreasonable policies, and then make a unified report after summarizing."
Du Qi said: "Leave these matters to me, and I will handle them myself."
"The humble post obeys!"
After Guo Xiaozheng heard it, he responded directly without any hesitation. For him, as long as it is Du Qi's arrangement, there is nothing to refuse, just accept it directly.
After Guo Xiaozheng agreed, he asked again: "Your Highness, I have a question about my humble position."
Du Qidao: "But it's okay to say it. If you have a problem, just say it. You don't have to go around in circles. You just followed me and don't know my habits. Let me remind you, with me, you don't need to worry about anything. If you have something to say, it's business. It's public. I won't punish you just because of your opinions. "
Guo Xiaozheng said: "Remember the humble job."
After he answered a sentence, he said, "His Royal Highness is the king of Pingxi appointed by the court, and that's all there is to it. He has not held other official positions. For example, the chief executive of Longyou Dao, or the governor of Suzhou, or the rest The position of governor depends on His Highness King Pingxi's title alone, and there is no official on him. Will the imperial court mind if His Highness meddles in the local government affairs? Once the news is sent back to Chang'an, will His Majesty be furious because of it?"
A prince is indeed prominent.
In the court, it is the highest rank of title, but the title of king does not mean power, nor does it mean that local officials can be dealt with. Because local officials are official officials, this is another system.
This is Guo Xiaozheng's worry.
Du Qi nodded and said with a smile: "If you ask about this matter, I will tell you about it. Today's Longyou Dao has surrendered to the imperial court in name, but in fact it operates independently and does not listen to the imperial court's orders."
"Your Majesty asked me to come to Longyou Dao to be in charge of rectifying the situation on the west side of Longyou Dao."
"This area includes Suzhou, Guazhou and Shazhou."
"I have full power to dispose of the land of the three states."
"Your Majesty granted me the title of King Pingxi, and said that after I put the three states in order, if I have the strength to take the territory west of the sandbar, it will be my feudal country."
Du Qi continued: "Tossing around in Suzhou, Guazhou, and Shazhou now is on the one hand to set things right and adjust what was unreasonable before. On the other hand, it is to establish a foundation and build up our own strength so that we can go west in the future. Enter."
"My king's goal is to the west of the sandbar."
"That's my destination."
"Even if the current big move in Jiuquan County, even Suzhou, Guazhou, and Shazhou is introduced to the court, even if the emperor knows about it, it is impossible to deal with me."
Du Qi said: "In his heart, the emperor wished that I would dispose of the officials who did not obey orders. So on this point, you don't have to worry, just go ahead and do it."
When Guo Xiaozheng heard this, he was shocked.
Unexpectedly, when Du Qi came to the Western Regions, he wanted to rectify the three states of Suzhou, Guazhou and Shazhou. He didn't even think that Du Qi's plan was so huge that he wanted to establish a country in the west, which was tantamount to Du Qi's own system.
After Du Qi became self-reliant in the Western Regions, he still belonged to the imperial court in name. But Du Qi's strength has increased, and he is far away from the Central Plains, so he can listen to the tune and not listen to the announcement, and he can ignore the imperial court's orders.
Guo Xiaozheng no longer had any worries in his heart, and said solemnly: "The humble official has already made it clear, and he also knows what to do. Please rest assured, Your Highness, the humble official will take care of everything."
Du Qi said: "It's good if you understand. In a word, the Suzhou I need is a well-organized government and a harmonious people. It can not pick up lost items on the road and never close its doors at night. This is one of the king's goals."
Guo Xiaozheng said: "The humble position will definitely live up to His Highness' high expectations."
He knows what to do.
What we have to do now is to kill corrupt officials one by one. For these people, Guo Xiaozheng is extremely hostile, and a group of moths should be killed.
Du Qi nodded, and arranged for someone to call Liu Zhengxi to let Liu Zhengxi and Guo Xiaozheng meet. He also told Liu Zhengxi what Guo Xiaozheng was going to do and the division of labor between the two.
Liu Zhengxi said that he would do his best to assist Guo Xiaozheng. As long as it is Guo Xiaozheng's side, Liu Zhengxi is obliged to help him with all his strength. In a word, Liu Zhengxi and Guo Xiaozheng should work together to do the things arranged by Du Qi well.
Guo Xiaozheng nodded in agreement.
Liu Zhengxi is an old man next to Du Qi, and Liu Zhengxi's kindness is helpful to Guo Xiao.
After the two sides got acquainted, Du Qi called Liu Jian and took Guo Xiaozheng down to rest. Today's Guo Xiaozheng lives directly in the palace. On the one hand, there are enough vacant rooms in the palace, and on the other hand, Guo Xiaozheng's living in the palace is beneficial for Du Qi to call people to arrange things.
After Guo Xiaozheng went down, Liu Zhengxi looked solemn, and said: "Your Highness, the matter Guo Xiaozheng is responsible for is extremely important. Even, it is extremely easy to cause accidents. Excessive killing may cause a series of consequences."
Du Qi said: "If it can't be broken, it can't be built. Anyway, Jiuquan and even Suzhou are a mess. Now if we want to reshape Jiuquan County and even reorganize Suzhou, we can only let Guo Xiaozheng do things."
After a pause, Du Qi said: "Right now Guo Xiao is doing things, because few people know him, so he is not well-known. But as he arrests and disposes more people, more and more people will know that he is The counselor of this king. At that time, many people may flatter him, and even send money and gifts. That will be the time to test him. I hope he can stick to his heart and not be confused."
Liu Zhengxi smiled and said: "Since Your Highness praises Guo Xiaozheng, this person will definitely not disappoint His Highness. Moreover, Guo Xiaozheng is indeed capable."
Du Qidao: "Let's wait and see."
Liu Zhengxi also nodded in agreement with Du Qi's words, and now he can only take one step at a time to see what will happen next. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
