There was some shock in the officialdom of Daxia.
These shocks did not harm the foundation of Daxia. On the contrary, because of the detailed reports in Daxia Weekly, the people had more faith in the government and believed that what was written in the constitution was actually true.
As a result, Daxia launched a legal education campaign, allowing the Constitution to truly enter thousands of households and allowing hundreds of millions of Daxia people to know their rights and obligations.
It turns out that ordinary people have the right to supervise local governments!
For the inaction of local officials, ordinary people can report to the higher authorities and supervise the final outcome!
If the higher-level authorities still cannot solve the problem, they actually have the power to appeal to higher authorities, and can even write directly to the Censorate and submit it to the emperor!
“This is supervision!”
"What is the role of supervision? It is to ensure that all people and things are carried out in the open and that everything is clear and transparent."
"What good is that?"
"The advantage is that officials at all levels dare not reach out, because if they do, they will be caught! They work under the supervision of the people. As long as their conscience is clear and as long as they do things that benefit the people, the people will naturally support them, praise them, and even give them umbrellas when they leave office!"
"Son, when Prime Minister Yan left Huangtang Town, the people of Huangtang Town gave him the Wanmin Umbrella."
"Those common people wept bitterly and escorted Yan Xiang all the way out of Chuyun Mountain."
"Prime Minister Yan's deeds spread throughout Qianshan County, and the people there also presented him with the "Wanmin Umbrella." Many even erected a longevity tablet in his honor. Why is this so?"
Wu Tianci looked up and replied, "This is because Prime Minister Yan has truly helped the people!"
"Yes, he not only helped the people, he also brought them hope."
"As the ruler of a country, you must also be subject to such supervision. The existence of the cabinet is to constrain imperial power. Because everyone makes mistakes. When ordinary people make mistakes, it may only endanger one person or one family, but if the emperor makes a mistake... it endangers the entire country!"
Fu Xiaoguan spoke a lot to Wu Tianci in a serious tone.
Although Wu Tianci was listening carefully, due to his age and experience, he didn't quite understand why the emperor's power had to be subject to such severe restrictions.
Under Wen Xingzhou's teachings, he knew that all under heaven belongs to the king, and all the people in the world are his subjects - as an emperor, everything in this country should belong to him, but that was not what his father said.
Of course, he felt that his father was right, but if he really became the emperor of Daxia in the future, no matter what he did, he would have to get the approval of the cabinet. Wouldn't this make being an emperor meaningless?
Now, one can only make proposals, and whether they can be implemented depends on the vote of the cabinet.
If my proposal is rejected, doesn't it mean that what I said is meaningless?
Just when Wu Tianci was confused, Ji Yungui, the head of Tianji Pavilion, walked in.
"Your Majesty, Mr. Cai from Yufuji has sent a message."
"Oh? Tell me about it."
"The capital of Yelang State is Yiju City. I think there are hidden people left by Yu Shurong!"
Fu Xiaoguan frowned, "How did you know?"
"That Qin Hongye is with Brunei's prince Qiu Qingyun. Last night, Wu Wenqing, the prince of Yelang's Northwest Marquisate, hosted a banquet for Qiu Qingyun. During the meal, he said he needed to return to Yelang, but needed to go to Huilinjun to pick up a woman!"
"Hui Linjun is only a hundred miles away from Baocheng County. Zong Shiji has yet to reveal the whereabouts of his wife, Wei Xianghan. I sent people to Baocheng County and Weijiapu, and did find Zong Shiji's father, Zong Qian. But Zong Qian said Wei Xianghan had already left with the child!"
"The information Qin Hongye gave to Mr. Cai stated that Wu Wenqing didn't want to leave Chang'an and was full of complaints. He said he must be helping that woman send someone to the Peacock Kingdom again. He had already done this once. After investigation, it is very likely that the people from the Academy of Sciences left through Wu Wenqing's convoy from Yelang Kingdom!"
"So I think there must be a connection between the Northwest Marquis of Yelang State and Yu Shurong!"
Fu Xiaoguan thought for a moment, "Have the Marines entered the Peacock Country yet?"
"Your Majesty, they have crossed the Great Snow Mountain and entered the Peacock Kingdom."
"Whose commander?"
"Cheng Peng, commander of the 2nd Marine Division."
Fu Xiaoguan couldn't remember the name, but he guessed it was a new general promoted after Bai Yulian took charge of the Marine Corps.
"Have the Tianji Pavilion's spies in Yelang keep a close eye on Wei Xianghan. If they find her, don't alert her. Find Yu Shurong's spies and follow this lead carefully."
"If it is really a hidden pawn planted by Yu Shurong, we should pay attention to whether other neighboring countries have the same pawns she has planted. I am afraid there are also some within our Great Xia."
"Let's follow the vine to find the melon. It would be best if we can get all the melons off this vine."
"My lord, I obey the order!"
"Sit down and have a cup of tea."
After finishing the business, Ji Yungui sat opposite Fu Xiaoguan.
"How is my mother now?" He poured Ji Yungui a cup of tea and asked.
"The Queen Mother is doing well in the Taoist temple."
"Where's the fat guy?"
"...He's also in the Taoist temple, and he's quite busy."
Fu Xiaoguan was stunned. "What is he busy with?"
"The Emperor has taken a liking to cooking and spends the entire day trying to find ways to get fresh ingredients and make all sorts of delicious dishes for the Empress Dowager."
Fu Xiaoguan grinned. This was certainly the best. He hoped that Fatty and Xu Yunqing could have a good ending.
"Your Majesty, a message has arrived from Alia City on the Leah Continent. I hope you can go there again if you have time."
"...Will it be too hard for her to raise the child alone?"
"Not really. The Queen has sent a group of palace maids and eunuchs over."
Fu Xiaoguan was shocked and looked at Ji Yungui with wide eyes. "Are you saying that Yu Wenjun knew about this?"
"In fact, the Queen also knows about the girl Fujiwara no Kisho from Ezo Castle."
Having said this, Ji Yungui added: "The ladies all know it."
Fu Xiaoguan pursed his lips and thought that he would have to stay in the queen's bedroom tonight.
Wu Tianci asked curiously at this time: "Father, what are you talking about? What does Auntie know?"
"Don't ask about adults' affairs."
"Oh." Wu Tianci pouted and closed his mouth.
"Tell Alia that I will stop in Alia City when I go on the expedition next year."
"Also, forget it, let's get down to business. Tell Cheng Peng to be careful. After all, Yu Shurong knows how powerful the Marines are. Ku Chan has conquered most of the Peacock Kingdom, and he has many experts around him. Not to mention that Yu Shurong brought a thousand guns with him!"
"If we can capture Yu Shurong alive, that would be the best. If not... then kill her on the spot!"
"Notify the spies responsible for Peacock Nation's intelligence to closely monitor the war in Peacock Nation..."
Fu Xiaoguan paused, then turned to Liu Jin and ordered, "Go and ask Zhuo Bieli to come over."
"Your Majesty, are you interested in the Peacock Kingdom?"
