Chapter 323 Announcement to a county and collection of military symbols
Promotion?
As an inspector, if you have risen to the top here and are overseers, don’t you want to be under my control?
Unless...
As if remembering Tie Tang's performance in the county competition, Li Qingwan realized that something was wrong. She reached out and sucked in, and the magic power spurted out from her palm, sucking all three volumes of brocade silk.
Less than ten breaths.
She read all three volumes of the imperial decree.
At this time, Li Qingwan's face was expressionless, but her fingers were clenched red, and the brocade silk in her hands seemed to be torn into pieces in the next moment.
"Follow me!"
Tie Tang nodded repeatedly, how dare he have any opinions?
People who are angry are already very scary.
And when the angry person is a woman...it is simply a natural disaster.
Bang! Bang!
Li Qingwan stepped into the void, stretched out her hand and struck out with a palm. A huge red phoenix shadow immediately appeared in the sky above Qingshui City, covering half of Qingshui City. It was visible when looking up.
Hugh! Hugh! Hugh!
One after another figures rose from all over Qingshui City, each showing their magical powers and rushing towards the Qingshui County Yamen. This flaming phoenix represented Li Qingwan's instructions, and something big was obviously happening.
Tie Tang led three people and followed Li Qingwan to the county government hall. This place is rarely open to the public. Generally, all matters are settled at the county government hall in Qingshui City.
Matters that reach the county government office are obviously not trivial matters.
Li Qingwan stood with her hands behind her back, with her back to Tie Tang and the others. She wore a large red robe that blocked her graceful figure, making it impossible for those behind her to guess her thoughts.
In less than a moment.
A familiar cyan figure arrived first.
Qingshui County Cheng, Lu Zhengqing, the second in command of Qingshui County, is also the direct descendant of the first family in Qingshui City.
When it comes to actual influence in Qingshui County...he is actually greater than Li Qingwan.
When Lu Zhengqing saw Tie Tang, he immediately smiled and greeted him happily.
"Hey, you came back so soon, I thought you were going to stay in the Holy Capital for a while."
"Cough!"
Tie Tang coughed and pointed his right index finger in the direction of Li Qingwan without speaking.
Only then did Lu Zhengqing notice the strange atmosphere in the courtroom.
Before he could think deeply, figures one after another arrived one after another.
Qingshui County Supervisor Qiu Zhengyang, two deputy guards, the chief county captain He Changsheng, the county captain Yan Su, Kong Gaozhuo, the county captain, the generals of the Wukuu town army, the commander of the Longwu camp Rong Gaojun, the Qingshui county magistrate Chao Chenghua
, county magistrate, chief arrester, etc.
After these people arrived, they stood in two rows according to their official positions. The huge county government hall seemed to have become a small court.
Some people who were familiar with Tie Tang wanted to come forward and say hello when they saw him turning around, but Lu Zhengqing stopped him with a look.
Some did not deal with Tie Tang, and some even had a quarrel with him. Their eyes were wandering, trying their best to think about what happened.
There are also some officials who have never been involved in the grudges and are just here on orders, silently hanging their hands and waiting for Li Qingwan to speak out.
With a fire phoenix edict, 90% of the people in Qingshui City, except for the medical department and officials who were out on official business, immediately rushed to the county government office.
This reputation and prestige made Tie Tang and Fang Lexian nod secretly.
They know this is not an easy task.
In addition to the power of the county governor.
More factors... still rely on Li Qingwan's personal charm, reputation, and strength.
The governors of other counties and cities may not have the ability to easily mobilize most of the officials in a county.
Wait for half a stick of incense.
Seeing that no one came, the red figure in the middle of the court finally turned around slowly and looked at Tie Tang solemnly.
"Master Tie, please take a seat!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the hall was shocked.
Everyone couldn't bear it any longer and began to whisper and communicate continuously.
Even Lu Zhengqing, Qiu Zhengyang, He Changsheng and others who were close to Tie Tang looked shocked.
Think for a moment.
Most officials have guessed the reason.
Tie Tang made great achievements in the county competition. According to past practice... being a county guard is more than enough. This is what many people expected.
But they never expected that this would happen so quickly.
At first, the county-city competition was really over, but because of the rebellion caused by the cult, this competition could not be held for the time being.
Secondly, Tie Tang’s strength is not enough!
As the head of a county, how can he convince the people without the cultivation strength of the magical secret realm?
As an important person with real power, the county governor can have power granted by the court, but the actual power... requires sufficient strength.
Otherwise, the officials below you will cut you off if something goes wrong, and the position of county governor changes every three days. Wouldn’t it become a joke?
Ignoring the suspicious officials, Tie Tang walked to the main seat of the court and sat down, with his eyebrows lowered and his head lowered, as if he was contemplating with his eyes closed and did not speak.
At this time, someone finally couldn't help it anymore and stepped out of the queue to salute Li Qingwan.
"Sir, this is..."
Wow! Wow! Wow!
Li Qingwan raised her hand, and three volumes of brocade silk flew out of her hand. They unfolded in the air, and the sharp lines of large characters glowed with golden light, completely revealed to everyone.
The first volume of these three volumes of brocade and silk documents briefly records Tie Tang's birthplace, the official positions he held along the way, and the achievements he made.
The second volume is a formal appointment letter, indicating that it was recommended by the master of the Supervisory Hall, and the three ministers collaborated with the civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty to finalize the announcement.
Volume 3.
It is Li Qingwan’s appointment letter.
She was transferred from the position of county governor to Qingshui County, to the position of county captain, and her official rank was upgraded one rank to a fifth-rank official. She was in charge of all the troops in Qingshui County and only obeyed the imperial edicts and the county governor's orders.
From the bright side, this dispatch means that it rises brightly and falls darkly.
Because although Li Qingwan's official rank has been promoted, his actual power has been greatly reduced, from the head of a county to an official in the county's military system.
But the real inner meaning is the Qingyun Road paved by Taibao and Shang Yue for Tietang.
They knew Li Qingwan as a person and their friendship with Tie Tang.
Therefore, Li Qingwan, who was supposed to go to Beijing to work, was still placed in Qingshui County as one of Tie Tang's right-hand men to help him truly unify Qingshui County.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
In the past, county governors who had resigned were either outstanding in ability or had strong connections, and were promoted to other higher-level county governors.
Either you go to Beijing to wait for a job, wait for a position that suits you, and then continue to climb up or be sent home by the court.
Dashang has too many talents, but its official positions are extremely limited. It can be said that it is a carrot and a pit.
In addition to the real human overlords in the Holy City's court, local officials in other capitals and counties, including the head of a palace, may be dismissed or transferred at any time.
Especially in some sensitive positions such as county guards, local generals, chief captains, etc., officials change extremely frequently.
This move is to prevent certain people, certain families, and certain factions from being firmly controlled.
Frequent replacement of local officials is very necessary and must be done.
These three edicts sparked a lot of controversy immediately after they were publicly announced.
The officials present had thousands of thoughts in their minds. Among them were several officials who had offended Tie Tang in the past, especially the expressions on the faces of the county captain Yan Su. It was so exciting.
In addition.
There was also a person in the field whose expression changed drastically, as if he had encountered something unbelievable.
He raised his head and looked carefully at the document that assigned Li Qingwan, and finally found his name in the bottom corner.
"Qi Heyao, the former commander-in-chief of the county, was transferred to the position of Zhongzheng of the county and is waiting for orders."
If Li Qingwan is to take over as the county captain, then the original county captain will naturally be squeezed out, and his destination is also known as the "county Zhongzheng", one of the official graveyards.
The county Zhongzheng is a court official in name, but in fact he is a sinecure with almost no power, which is equivalent to the talent reserve of the county.
This position usually receives a salary from the court, but does not have any power.
His only function is to give his own suggestions when major changes or events occur in the county, or when certain officials need it.
She speaks purely with her mouth and her own strength, and she belongs to the "nursing home" among the counties.
The original intention of establishing the County Zhongzheng was to deal with sudden disasters. Once an official in a core position died suddenly or violently, some talents could be selected from the County Zhongzheng to take up the post immediately.
At the same time, it really serves as a talent reserve for the county, recruiting some strong and capable talents who can fill a vacancy at any time.
But after the position of county magistrate was actually established, it was discovered that this was not the case.
Still the same sentence.
There were many people in the Great Shang Dynasty, and there were also many geniuses. The official positions in various positions would be infinitely saturated without any vacancies.
Officials in the county central office have few opportunities to be officially appointed and promoted.
Therefore, this official position became a place for the court to appease some officials who were 'squeezed out'.
If I give you an upright position in the county, at least there is still hope, and don’t have any miscellaneous thoughts.
As the captain of Qingshui County, how could Qi Heyao have thought that the appointment of the new county governor would put him in the grave?
To know.
Strictly speaking, the official positions of county guard, county magistrate, and county chief are two completely different systems from his position as county captain.
One is affiliated with the government and the other is affiliated with the military.
No matter how the government officials change, it has nothing to do with the military officials, and vice versa.
The more Qi Heyao thought about it, the angrier he became. He had been commanding the army of a county for more than forty years, longer than Li Qingwan had been the county guard. He considered himself senior and strong enough.
Now that Tie Tang, the great wizard of the soul, wants to sit on his head across several levels, he will never be convinced.
Snap!
Qi Heyao came out.
He didn't even look at Tie Tang, but bowed slightly and saluted Li Qingwan.
"Master Li, is this matter too sudden? It needs to be discussed? We didn't get a hint of it, so why did Chaoge suddenly issue the edict?"
Li Qingwan flicked her red robe, held her hands under her belly, and turned her body half towards Tietang's head in the middle, remaining silent.
This puts the matter on Tie Tang's head. After all, Tie Tang is now the highest administrative official in Qingshui County.
Qi Heyao's expression changed drastically.
Knowing that Li Qingwan, the former county governor, has acknowledged three edicts, it is useless to look for her on his own. The only way to find her is to look for Tie Tang.
Now he really couldn't sit still. Li Qingwan lost the position of county guard and the position of county captain, but if Qi Heyao lost the county captainship, then he really lost his hair.
"I occasionally felt cold and felt unwell, so I resigned first."
Qi Heyao said a few words into the air, and then without thinking, he paused, auspicious clouds appeared, and he was about to leave.
With the imperial decree and documents present, it would be unwise to confront Tie Tang face to face. He could only leave first and think about his next move.
At this moment, Tie Tang suddenly raised his head, a gleam in his eyes.
"Wait!"
Qi Heyao knew what he was going to say next and didn't want to hear it at all. He pretended to be deaf and continued to run away.
Tie Tang pinched the Dao Seal with his hand, and his figure disappeared like a dreamy flying flower, suddenly appearing in front of Qi Heyao, spreading the five fingers of his right hand and placing it on Qi Heyao's shoulder.
"Qi Zhongzheng, you are so presumptuous."
Although Qi Heyao has heard of Tie Tang's name, he knows how outstanding his talent is.
But no matter how powerful the genius is...now he is only in the realm of the great witch of the soul.
Cultivation will not lie!
As a witch and Taoist sect in the earth witch realm who has entered the secret realm of gods and witches, he has never taken Tie Tang seriously.
"Withdraw your hands, otherwise you will hurt the Iron Inspector and it will be difficult to deal with."
Tie Tang called him Qi Zhongzheng, but he called Tie Tang the supervisor. Obviously he was unwilling to acknowledge the imperial decree.
"Hmph, get down!" Tie Tang's five fingers exploded with force and pressed hard.
His physical body became a world, absorbing a large amount of pure vitality, and his physical body was already extremely heavy.
In addition, the Human Emperor's handwriting was still in his belly. Under pressure from both sides, Qi Heyao fell into the court again before he could react.
"You..."
Qi Heyao was furious.
Apparently he thought he was being attacked by Tie Tang. He didn’t know what kind of tactics the other party used, but it was as terrifying as the sun.
"Master Qi, it's better to be calm and don't be impatient!"
"How come you are still infected with wind and cold after practicing in the earthly witchcraft realm? Could it be that you were infected by the five plague gods?"
........
Lu Zhengqing, Qiu Zhengyang, He Changsheng and others all spoke together, so that Qi Heyao no longer dared to act rashly.
I didn’t leave just now. If I leave now, it would be disobedience and disrespect.
Tie Tang returned to his seat in the middle of the courtroom, remembering how similar it was to now when he was put on trial.
It's just that at that time, he was standing at the back of the court, surrounded by officials, but now he was changing positions on offense and defense, and it was his turn to dominate.
Snap!
Tie Tang slapped the gavel, and his majestic and solemn voice echoed throughout the audience.
"I have just taken up my new post, and there are still many things I am not familiar with and I need to rely on you. If you have any suggestions... you might as well speak up!"
All the officials looked at me, and I looked at you. No one wanted to be the one who stood out. Didn’t you see that even the county captain was dealt with?
Anyone here who can compete head-on with the Sheriff Tie Tang...
Only Li Qingwan and Lu Zhengqing!
Others, including Qi Heyao, were more or less lacking in weight.
If these two people don't stand up and express their position, how can other officials dare to take the lead easily?
There was a long silence, no one responded.
Tie Tang stretched his back ridges, his energy and blood rolled, and his blood energy turned into a real dragon and spread to the sky above the entire court, including everyone.
This hot energy and blood are pure and strong. When the dragon's body rotates, the dragon scales are like swords and swords passing by. The terrifying power of energy and blood has exceeded most of the officials present.
Many people know Tie Tang, but they didn't expect that his strength would develop so quickly. This kind of blood energy means that his physical body has progressed to an extremely terrifying state.
Really take action...
With his reputation as a genius in the past, I am afraid that some simple ancient wizards and Zhu Wudu may not be able to defeat him.
At least in terms of strength... Tie Tang has shown that he is qualified to serve as a county guard.
At this time, apart from Qi Heyao, the most anxious people were those officials who had offended Tie Tang in the past.
Among them, those headed by Yan Su and Rong Gaojun exchanged glances frequently, trying to find a solution.
Most of the other officials present remained aloof.
Tie Tang is from Yuncheng and belongs to Qingshui County. He is from a pure family background. He also made great contributions in the county competition, causing Qingshui County to rise in the rankings and even cross a level.
He himself is an extremely talented person, with good fighting prowess and a good reputation. It is normal for him to serve as the county guard.
This is the true thought of most of the officials present.
At the same time.
Li Qingwan, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "The court's order document is to inform us, not to ask for our advice. You must understand this.
Wen Rui, Zhi Shang, Yong An... hand over the military symbols."
She called six names in a row, all of whom were direct descendants of the Li family who had been stationed in the local army, and asked them to hand over their military symbols.
Once a county governor and a court official, the newly appointed person in charge naturally has to place his own people in key positions, and it is impossible to hand over power to outsiders.
Thumb! Thumb! Thumb!
A series of six soldiers wearing armor and stomachs came out and each sent out half of the soldier's talisman.
Interestingly...
Their military symbols were all sent to Li Qingwan, not to Tietang's platform.
Li Qingwan took a big hand and collected the military talismans in his palm, and then sent all the military talismans he had, together with a one-foot-long white jade seal, to the front of Tietang.
All the military symbols were given to Tie Tang, but it does not mean that these soldiers have been dismissed.
However, after all the military symbols are collected, they will be redistributed by the new governor, so that the generals and soldiers know who is their immediate boss now.
Of course.
Every newly appointed county governor is bound to place his own men in the army.
Therefore, some of the military talismans handed over by these generals can be taken back, while others can never get them again.
These things could have been done in private, but Li Qingwan's face-to-face exchange of words was equivalent to stating her position and making Tie Tang's throne much more secure.
After all, Li Qingwan's reputation still exists. After she took the lead to express her stance, most generals, even if they did not belong to her faction, began to hand over military symbols one after another.
After a while.
There were only five red-faced generals standing in the entire court, and four of them had their eyes on Qi Heyao. Obviously, these four were his direct descendants.
As the captain of a county, Qi Heyao commanded the army of a county. The True Dragon Talisman in his hand was the real power, and he could command the soldiers of a county.
If he doesn't match up, Tie Tang will lose a big killer weapon in his control of the Qingshui County army.
Snap!
Tie Tang slapped the wooden wall and asked, neither salty nor indifferent.
"Qi Zhongzheng, what do you want?"
Before leaving the Holy Capital, officials from the Ministry of Civil Affairs had already reminded him that he could do everything slowly after arriving in Qingshui County.
Only the weapon talisman cannot be slow!
All military symbols must be collected as soon as possible to ensure that there will be no major mistakes in the safety of the county.
Qi Heyao was so anxious that he really didn't want to stay away from the center of power. He looked at the other officials with great reluctance.
But as far as the eye can see...most people just turn a blind eye.
Just when he was feeling extremely disappointed, he suddenly saw a man who was also in the army, making eye contact with him, and there were several officials around him who also responded with their eyes.
Longwu Camp Commander Rong Gaojun also did not hand over the military talisman. He, Yan Su and other officials who were close to him obviously wanted to give it a try.
Qi Heyao received support and felt confident in his heart, but he still couldn't think of a reason for the disagreement.
At this moment.
Suddenly, there were a few witchcraft breaths coming from outside the county government office. Qi Heyao's ears trembled and his face lit up, as if he had learned some good news.
Tie Tang, who had been sitting in the high hall, also sensed someone coming from outside.
He is not what he used to be, his strength has improved greatly, and he feels a familiar aura.
Those people who came outside the county government office...were none other than them.
