The people here either just sighed at Xia Bingyan's words and followed her sincerely, or just agreed to her fear of death, but they didn't care about Xia Bingyan, and she had done everything she should do.
In the following time, Nangong Mo and Xuanyuan Qingyang formulated a series of laws and regulations for the Qing Dynasty, from the national legal system to the injustice of the people, and they all dabbled in.
The first country in the Cangkong Continent with women in power was established.
Duan Daguo, who is far away in Xinze County, is handling affairs in the government office. He served as the magistrate of Xinze County for more than ten years, worked diligently, without any wrongful cases, and left the former magistrate when he first took office at a young age.
All old cases are handled clearly and are deeply loved by local people.
Although he knew that Yulong and Nanyue jointly attacked Dongwu, Xinze was located in a remote place and had a paradise, so he did not receive any impact.
This day...
"Master, old, old master..." A yamen runner rushed in in a panic and knelt on the ground with a shocked expression.
"What's so panicked?" Duan Daguo asked without changing his face.
"Yes, father-in-law, the father-in-law of the court is here." The yamen runner finally relieved before speaking.
Duan Daguo stood up and walked out of the lobby. He saw Zhu Li standing in the yard holding a whisk.
"But Duan Daguo and Duan County Magistrate." Zhu Li asked with a smile.
"It's the empress." Duan Daguo bowed and returned the gift.
"Duan Daguo received the order."
When he heard that it was an imperial edict, he quickly lifted up the hem of his clothes and knelt on the ground. All the yamen runners and clerks behind him all fell to the ground.
"The Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was dictated that Duan Daguo worked diligently during his governance of Xinze County and served the country and the people. He was specially promoted Duan Daguo to the first prime minister of the Qing Dynasty. During the period when the Emperor of the Qing Dynasty was not around, he could mobilize all military and political affairs at will. I respect this!"
"The Emperor of Qing Dynasty? Can my father-in-law explain in detail to the ministers?" He had never heard of this country, and why did he want to be the prime minister? He was just a ninth-rank county magistrate, and suddenly turned over and became the prime minister?
Zhu Li also received instructions from Xia Bingyan that this person would definitely become a virtuous prime minister. He did not have the best vision as much as the queen, but he was the first person to admire except the emperor.
"The Prime Minister Duan asked to come forward. The Qing Dynasty was the predecessor of the Eastern Wu, and the new emperor was the present Dragon Empress, and it was also the queen system. The queen asked me to inform the Prime Minister Duan that the founding of the Qing Dynasty was just over. The war was just over, and the Prime Minister Duan was only allowed to follow the normal period.
It's good to think so, don't rush it."
That being said, but Duan Daguo still had a little complaint. Did he suddenly become a member of the Qing Dynasty from Yulong?
Is this what it looks like?
"I thank you."
"Then the old slave will go back first. The empress said that in a month the emperor will trust the county magistrate to hand over to Prime Minister Duan, but the empress will be in the Qing Dynasty and other prime ministers."
"Father-in-law walked slowly."
When he returned to the back hall, the lady saw him with a sad look and brought a cup of tea to him.
"Master, what are you worried about?"
He took the tea and put it on the table. Thinking of his father-in-law's words just now, he couldn't help but sigh.
"The Eastern Wu was destroyed and changed to the Qing Dynasty. I was also transferred to the Qing Dynasty and became the prime minister. I am kind-hearted and want you to run around again."
Xinci smiled softly, "What's the matter? Since the day I married the master, Xinci has been the master's person. No matter where the master goes, Xinci will follow."
"You have lived in Xinze for more than 20 years. This time you followed me on a long journey, and I couldn't bear it. And I was a little confused. The Qingqing and freshman are the king, and the queen is the current queen. I always feel a little uneasy."
Xinci was also stunned. Women are in power? This is something I have never heard of before. Is it really OK?
Although my husband is a ninth-rank county magistrate, he has been in Xinze County for more than ten years. Early this place has been regarded as his own home. The Qing Dynasty was just a new establishment. If it were in the past, it is still unknown whether it would become someone else's fish again.
However, there was something in her heart that it was difficult to calm down, that was that the queen, definitely not an ordinary woman.
Let’s not talk about the current emperor’s conquest of the Eastern Wu, but just giving the huge territory to a woman. This is the place where people are suspicious. Perhaps, she can really create a legend.
"The master doesn't need to think too much. We are just civilians and small officials. Since the emperor is willing to hand over the Eastern Wu to the queen, there must be his reasons. As for letting the master serve as the prime minister of the new country, Xinci has to do it here for him.
The queen is curious. She dares to use a ninth-rank county magistrate as prime minister, and must have different ideas and minds from ordinary people. In Xinci, the master is a good official for the country and the people, so Xinci also believes in the queen.
Have a spirit that does not belong to men."
After hearing what his wife said, Duan Daguo suddenly felt a lot of depression in his heart.
In fact, no matter what, since he can look down on him, he will not let down this "presentative" value.
"Since that's the case, I'm kind, you should spend more time with your father-in-law and mother-in-law during this period. It's not that easy to see us all."
Originally they could have taken the two elders away, but they liked the local area and didn't even live in the government office, let alone leaving Xinze.
Three days later, a young young man appeared in Xinze County Government with a post on his appointment.
"The lower official Chu Qiao has met Lord Duan."
"Mr. Chu is polite, please sit down."
It's coming so fast.
But looking at his slightly pale expression, he should be rushing all the way.
Chu Qiao smiled slightly, "Thank you, Lord Duan."
"Looking at Lord Chu's face, he should be exhausted all the way, so he would not let his servants take Lord Chu to rest first."
"It's okay, the matter is coming. Eunuch Zhu told the emperor that the emperor hopes that Lord Duan will rush to the Qing Dynasty as soon as possible. The emperor had heard of Eunuch Zhu that Xinze County was under Lord Duan's management, and the people of Xinze County were simple.
The people live and work in peace and contentment. Although they are far away from Kyoto, they are a paradise. The officials have long wanted to see them. Please rest assured. Although the officials are just starting out, their mood for serving the country and the people is the same as that of the officials. I am here to settle down.
Will hold on to Lord Duan’s efforts.”
Chu Qiao is a seemingly weak scholar, but his eyes are filled with the firmness of a young man, which makes Duan Daguo very satisfied, as if he saw himself back then, and he was so passionate.
"Since that's the case, I won't say much. I will stay in the mansion for dinner tonight. Let's hand over the two of us, and I will rush to the Qing Dynasty tomorrow."
"yes."
The next day, the autumn wind was refreshing and the weather was peaceful.
A simple carriage rushed to the city gate quietly.
Duan Daguo didn't want to see that farewell scene, and his heart felt sour.
"Madam, I've made you suffer." He always understood how virtuous this woman was. He knew how much she loved Zhe'er, but for his future, he still endured the pain and sent him to the capital. He knew how she was
He is filial to his parents, but for himself, he still has no complaints.
