After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Shangguanyi entered and reported: "Your Majesty, you will be here soon."
"Let's go!"
Du Qi got up in person and went straight to the gate of the palace. After Du Qi stood still, in a blink of an eye, a team of more than thirty people came, and the leader was Wang Qiao.
Wang Qiao and his party were well-dressed, wearing broad-collared shirts. In this season at the end of September, the autumn is high and the air is crisp, and everyone's clothes are fluttering, showing the spirit of the Tang Dynasty.
Wang Qiao saw Du Qi at a glance, and he quickly said: "Everyone, hurry up, King Xia is waiting for us at the door."
When everyone heard it, their spirits lifted.
Even the faces of many people are filled with a look of pride. They are people with five surnames and Qiwang, and they are from the Tang Dynasty. Although Du Qi was the King of Xia, he also came to greet them at the door in person, which shows how much Du Qi attaches importance to them and how important their background is. Everyone quickened their pace a little and arrived at the gate of the palace in a blink of an eye.
Wang Qiao took two quick steps, and bowed his hands in salute: "Caomin Wang Qiao, I pay my respects to King Xia."
"Meet King Xia!"
The rest of the people spoke one after another.
Everyone bowed and saluted, but their expressions were different. Even though many people showed awe on their faces, deep in their eyes, there was even more pride and pride. The reason is very simple, they are people from big families, people from aristocratic families.
Du Qi waved his hands and said, "You don't need to be too polite."
Everyone stood up and stood up straight.
Everyone looked confident and seemed extremely calm.
Du Qi looked around everyone, glanced over, and saw the expressions on everyone's faces. There was a faint pride on the faces of these people. After all, they were from big families, so Du Qi knew very well that these people were actually putting on airs.
This question is precisely the reason why Du Qi came out to greet him. A group of children from aristocratic families, and those who are not well-known and have no official positions, in Du Qi's capacity, there is actually no need to come out to greet them in person.
Since it is here, there is a purpose.
Du Qi's eyes were sharp, he glanced at everyone one by one, and said in his mouth: "All sages have come to the Western Regions, and this king welcomes you. On behalf of the thousands of people in the entire Xia Kingdom, I would like to thank you all. Because you are all talented. You people, now come to the Western Regions to serve as an official, to benefit the people. Thousands and thousands of people will accept your affection."
When everyone heard this, they were even more excited.
I am even more proud in my heart.
Du Qi continued with a smile on his face, "However, when you sages come to Xia Kingdom, I still need to remind you about some things. What I want to remind you is that you all came from big families when you were in the Tang Dynasty. They are all people with five surnames and seven hopes."
"During the Tang Dynasty, many people would be concerned about your origins, so they would be courteous."
"But in the Western Regions, birth is of no use. It doesn't matter whether you are from the Pei family, the Wang family, the Zheng family, or the Cui family. Because the people in the Western Regions don't know the five surnames and the seven surnames. see."
"Here, we only look at ability."
"The capable go up and the weak go down."
Du Qi talked eloquently, and said: "If you are capable and talented, this king can guarantee your success. But if you don't have the ability, what this king can guarantee is that you will at least have a worry-free life in the Western Regions. If all of you , when you do things, you have to put on airs, thinking that I am from a big family, and this king will tell you that it will definitely not work."
"Here in the Western Regions, there are no parents who can help you, no status bonus, everything depends on you. Everything depends on you to grasp, fight for, and obtain."
"I hope that in the end, what the people say is that the people of the Western Regions learned through you how outstanding the descendants of the big families from the Tang Dynasty are, and think that your respective families are also very good, not that the people think that after contacting you The children of the big family with five surnames and seven Wangs are all dudes and incompetents, they are all high-minded and low-handed, and they are all people who can't achieve high and low."
Du Qi's words were full of knocks.
After the words fell, the expressions on the faces of many people changed slightly, and they were no longer proud. They used to think that Du Qi respected their origins, but now it seems that Du Qi greeted them personally just to beat them.
In other words, it is to mention them.
But they didn't dare to show any resentment towards Du Qi.
On the contrary, he was even more in awe of Du Qi.
Who is Du Qi, that is the man who can retreat even the emperor. Who is Du Qi? He once overwhelmed the five surnames and Qi Wang, who dared not look up, and even used his own strength to destroy Wang Zongzhou,The people of Wang Zongxi's brother.
Everyone in the Tang Dynasty knew Du Qi's ability, so after Du Qi's words, the arrogance and arrogance that these people had originally disappeared. At this moment, everyone cheered up and dealt with it carefully.
Wang Qiao said sternly, "Don't worry, King Xia. Before I came here, all the families have entrusted me. I am waiting in the Western Regions, and I will obey King Xia's arrangements. Everything is for the Kingdom of Xia. Now, we all obey King Xia." The command."
The rest of the people also echoed.
After Du Qi finished listening, he nodded and said: "Everyone's attitude is very upright, and I am looking forward to it. I hope that the glory of the five surnames and seven wang clans can bloom again in the Western Regions. Instead of people with five surnames and seven wangs, gradually fell silent."
"Everyone, please!"
Du Qi waved his hand and stepped in first.
The rest of the people entered together, and after everyone entered the palace, they took their seats.
Du Qi glanced at the crowd, and said in a deep voice: "Everyone is willing to come to the Western Regions and serve this king. This king is very pleased with this, and I am very grateful for your coming. At the same time, this king can also tell you clearly, There is a shortage of talents in the Western Regions, you are all outstanding, and you will be reused after you arrive in Xia Kingdom."
"However, I still have to remind you again that there is only one chance. If you grasp it and do a good job in your job, then you are capable people, and you will be able to advance step by step in the future, and you will be able to rise to the top."
"If you don't seize this opportunity, this king will not be relentless. You should go back to your respective families. I believe that you all came to the Western Regions with great ambitions, and you all want to show your ambitions. "
"So here in the Western Regions, I hope that you will really settle down and do things, so that you can honor your ancestors and let the family in the Central Plains see that you can make meritorious deeds when you come to the Western Regions, instead of coming to the Western Regions by yourself, you will be assigned to the frontiers .¡±
Du Qi asked earnestly.
He had to beat and beat, and he had to work hard, after all, they were a group of young people.
Everyone responded naturally.
Wang Qiao also stated: "King Xia, when I come to the Western Regions, I want to do real things, and I will definitely live up to my high expectations."
Du Qi nodded and said: "Wang Qiao, we are old acquaintances. When I was in Taiyuan Mansion in the past, this king has known you for a long time. It has been many years since I have exchanged letters over the years. I also know that you are in Wang's house and assist Wang. Yu managed the Wang family very well, you are a talented person, and this king trusts you."
Wang Qiao said humbly: "King Xia has praised you so much, the grassroots are ashamed."
Du Qi said in a deep voice: "Among all people, this king knows you, so you are here, and this king will give you a chance. Now the lord of the Shule Kingdom is about to bring troops to surrender. The Shule Kingdom will be renamed Shule Prefecture, you will be the first governor of Shule Prefecture. Do you dare to accept?"
In fact, it is somewhat risky for Wang Qiao to be the governor of Shule Prefecture. However, Du Qi's subordinates really lack background. There are not many people in the palace, and many of them cannot be released.
Wang Qiao herself is also capable.
Only Du Qi had this arrangement. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
