Xiao He's comfort made the county magistrate relax a little.
But at this moment, he still didn't dare to neglect.
After all, the Liu family is a local leader in Peixian County. Suddenly, the Liu family's compound was reduced to rubble. This matter, no matter what, must be given an explanation.
Fortunately, it seems that the Liu family has been identified as rebels by the higher authorities.
Therefore, he is not worried that the local wealthy families in Peixian County will unite to put pressure on him. After all, who dares to speak for the rebels?
The county magistrate took Xiao He back to the county government office in a hurry.
As Xiao He stepped forward and slowly comforted the people of Peixian County, the people of Peixian County soon fell silent.
The government's credibility is still sufficient.
Moreover, Xiao He's prestige also played a key role at this moment.
"Master Xiao, what happened over there just now? It looks like a battle between experts?"
When Cao Shen found Xiao He, the former was in front of the Yamen, appeasing some landowners who came to inquire.
After sending away the representatives of these small landowners, Xiao He took Cao Shen to the backyard. After arranging drinks, Xiao He said slowly: "This matter was originally a secret, but you are not an outsider either."
"It's just that after I tell you, don't tell anyone what happened today."
Cao Shen was quite close to him, and he was also the jailer of the county government and a high-ranking official.
In a county jail, he is considered the chief.
Moreover, he was very aware of Cao Shen's abilities, so the relationship between the two gradually improved over time, and Xiao He did not regard him as an outsider.
Xiao He is also ambitious. Xiao He is confident about his future. When he grows up in the future, he will naturally need to employ people.
And we need capable people, and Cao Shen is good.
"Master Xiao, please elaborate."
Cao Shen said quickly.
"This matter involves the Emperor Star. Some time ago, I observed the sky and there was an Emperor Star faintly appearing in the sky."
"Emperor Star?"
Cao Shen was stunned when he heard this. He also had an inheritance. Although the inheritance he received was incomplete, he still had a part of it.
He also has a little understanding of the Emperor Star.
"How is it possible? The Qin Dynasty is at the height of its power. What kind of emperor star is there?"
Cao Shen couldn't believe it. As an official of the Qin Dynasty, Cao Shen naturally had no thoughts of rebellion at the moment.
After all, as an official in the Qin Dynasty, even though he is a minor official, he still belongs to the upper class. In the entire Pei County, except for a few Shangguan, even the local landlords do not dare to show any slightness when they see him.
.
So in this position, he naturally hopes for the best for Da Qin.
In this way, his power will be more prominent. If Da Qin turns into a phoenix without its feathers, it will not be as good as a chicken.
Needless to say, they are the subordinates.
"Master Xiao, what is going on? The Qin Dynasty has only ruled the world for a few decades. Why is there an Emperor Star, and it is still in our Peixian County?"
Cao Shen didn't think that there were any descendants of the Qin royal family living in Pei County.
Now is not the time for the Seven Kingdoms.
The Qin Dynasty has been ruling the world for decades. His Majesty, the Qin Dynasty, has no habit of traveling incognito, so it is impossible for his descendants to live outside.
So when he heard that Xiao He had the Emperor Star, he naturally thought that Da Qin was in danger.
"You don't have to worry too much. The higher ups already know about this Emperor Star, so they sent someone here."
Xiao He naturally knew what Cao Shen was worried about.
In fact, he was a little worried before.
As an official of the Qin Dynasty, he still had some sympathy for the Qin Dynasty in his heart, even though the Qin Dynasty paid attention to Legalism and governed the country according to the law, which was somewhat contrary to the Confucianism he had learned.
However, Da Qin also has channels for promotion. Even compared to the original Six Kingdoms, Da Qin's channels for promotion are the most obvious.
Even though the former Six Kingdoms were not governed by Legalism, they were definitely not governed by Confucian concepts. It can be said that Confucianism was completely useless in the national political power at that time.
Confucius was indeed powerful, and among the hundreds of saints, he was second only to Laozi. However, his Confucianism was not recognized by those in power.
Even though he traveled around the six countries, he still could not explain the leaders of the six countries. On the contrary, the Legalists were able to change the law and strengthen the country.
There were also reforms in the six countries that strengthened the country, but the reforms affected the interests of most people and could only be temporary. Only Qin State firmly insisted on reforms to strengthen the country.
In the process of finally unifying the world, those in power in the Qin State also focused on talents and promotion channels at the bottom.
Whether it is the military merit system or the Legalist system, there are relatively fair promotion channels.
This is something that the Six Nations cannot do.
Because the people in power in the Six Kingdoms are nobles, only nobles can be promoted, blocking the promotion channels at the bottom, and naturally there are fewer and fewer talents.
Xiao He didn't think that things would change after the Restoration of the Six Kingdoms. A country is easy to change and its nature is hard to change.
That's why he won't seek refuge with the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. As for Da Qin, only then can he be given a chance to flourish.
As for the rebels outside now, he doesn't like them at all.
A group of corrupt people still want to restore the country, which is simply wishful thinking.
Maybe there are experts among the remnants of the Six Kingdoms. After all, the Six Kingdoms have existed for tens of thousands of years, and they have enough background. Even if they are destroyed by the Qin Dynasty, they will definitely have some back-ups.
He felt that this Emperor Star was probably the plan of those remnants of the Six Kingdoms.
It's a pity that Da Qin discovered it. Now that it has been discovered, this Emperor Star will not be of much use.
If Da Qin discovers it, Da Qin's dragon energy will inevitably stare at the opponent. It will be very difficult for the opponent to awaken and grow up.
After all, if the Emperor Star wants to grow, it also needs to swallow a dragon's energy.
And since Great Qin has discovered it, it will not let the opponent grow. Only the Emperor Star that develops silently will be the most terrifying.
Because at that time, no one had any idea about him.
When Xiao He told this to Cao Shen, the latter suddenly felt a bit relaxed on his face.
However, the two of them did not know that the Emperor Star was not the work of the remnants of the Six Kingdoms, but the handiwork of the gods and Buddhas all over the sky. The remnants of the six countries who participated in the rebellion were also the work of the gods and Buddhas all over the sky.
If the two of them knew this, I'm afraid they wouldn't be so relaxed.
It's a pity that both of them are the kind of people who were inherited by accident, and the inheritance exists intermittently.
Unlike orthodox disciples of Confucianism, they do not have the teachings of their ancestors and no strong channels for knowledge.
What they know about current affairs comes entirely from official sources.
As for the officials of Da Qin, it is naturally impossible to tell everyone about the situation in Heaven and the gods and Buddhas in the sky.
Those who can know about Heavenly Court are those with extremely high status. In the entire Qin Dynasty, only the core ministers know about it.
The two of them obviously don't have the qualifications.
But sometimes, ignorance is not a blessing.
At least they don't need to worry too much, unlike some people who know too much and only have more worries.
