In Lingnan, when Mengyang and his men were training their troops, the bird guns she had someone send over attracted the attention of Ying Yuan and his men.
The purpose of their return this time is to obtain a batch of such hot weapons.
Zhao Qingrui knew the importance of thermal weapons, and so did everyone in the military.
Ying Yuan and his men had good relations with some generals in the army, and they also learned some information from them, which made them value this thing more.
The army was heavily guarded by Meng Yang and his men. After they had no other options, they ran back to Xianyang to find a solution.
However, Ying Yuan and his friends were not very lucky. As soon as they came back, they ran into a father and daughter who were on a private tour.
Zhao Qingrui looked at the list of secret agents. There were only a few names on the list, but they occupied some necessary positions.
This made Zhao Qingrui's face even uglier. You know, when selecting these officials, the court will also check their family background and the people behind them.
It was recorded that all these people had clean family backgrounds and no backing.
Zhao Qingrui basically pays more attention to such people. It is not a good thing for the common people if they are involved with nobles. Zhao Qingrui puts those who are involved with nobles and are not talented people in less important positions.
Despite this, she also gave everyone the opportunity to move up, and what she really valued was talent.
"Call the six ministers and the censor Feng Jie to the Zhangtai Palace to discuss matters." Zhao Qingrui threw these things on the table and rubbed his eyebrows.
After a while, Li Si, Feng Quji and others all came over.
"Your Majesty summoned us, but I wonder what it means?" several people asked hurriedly.
"You can take a look at it for yourselves." Zhao Qingrui didn't waste any words and directly gave the memorial to them to read.
This matter can be said to be their dereliction of duty. You know, when selecting officials, the review of the officials' own circumstances is quite serious and cautious. However, they did not notice these things.
After reading these things, several people's faces looked a little bad.
The six ministers of government could be said to be the most important position among all the officials in the Qin Dynasty, especially Feng Quji. His face looked even worse, which could be said to be his direct responsibility.
"It is my fault that I have failed in my duty. Please punish me, Your Majesty." Feng Quji quickly asked for punishment.
"It's normal for Mr. Feng to be negligent in his management of the Ministry of Personnel. This matter hasn't gotten out of hand yet, so first deduct half a year's salary and let him go home to reflect on his mistakes for three days." Zhao Qingrui was unwilling to punish several people severely, as they were all trustworthy.
"I am ashamed of your Majesty's trust." Feng Quji said guiltily.
"Mr. Feng, there is no need to be like this. You need to be more cautious in selecting officials in the future." Zhao Qingrui said seriously.
There are too many areas in Daqin that need manpower at the moment, and Zhao Qingrui also expected that those people would take advantage of the loopholes.
Zhao Qingrui glanced at the few people, hoping that they would not betray her in the future.
"Your Majesty, those people have not done anything wrong so far. Should we arrest them directly and control them?" Li Si asked.
"I wonder if Li Qing has any good ideas?" Those people have indeed not made any mistakes so far, but they have also sent a lot of news from the court to Ying Yuan and others.
The message they sent was not important, but their actions had already violated Zhao Qingrui's bottom line.
"I think the court is in need of people right now. Since they haven't made any big mistakes, let's send them to revise the law. Your Majesty is going to revise the law. They are well-versed in classics and history, and are familiar with the laws of our Great Qin. Otherwise, they would not have passed the exam. Sending them to revise the law is a good way to make use of waste." Li Si said seriously.
"I second the proposal. Some people in the Book Editing Office have been dismissed because of their good reforms and contributions. They need to be replaced." The Book Editing Office can be said to have taken on the most tiring and complicated work in the court. Meng Yi agreed with Li Si's proposal very much.
"I think it's better to kill them directly to serve as a warning to others. Young Master Ying Yuan and his men have big plans, and there may be other well-hidden people in the court." Meng Tian frowned.
Anyone who betrays the Qin Dynasty should die. This is Meng Tian’s only thought.
"Brother, there is no need to be so angry. The Qin Dynasty is short of people." Meng Yi knew more about the shortage of people in the Qin Dynasty than Meng Tian. It would take time to improve the situation.
The word "lack of people" is like a curse. The Qin Dynasty has not solved it yet, which gives them a headache.
The one who suffered the most was Zhao Qingrui. Although the institutions in the court were able to operate, it took too much energy, and even she found it difficult to take a break.
Many times, even on vacation, there are endless government affairs to deal with.
After discussing for a while in Zhangtai Palace, several people decided where they would go, which was the book editing office.
When the transfer order from the Ministry of Personnel reached the hands of several people, they were still a little confused.
When they met at the book repair office, they looked at each other and saw bitterness in each other's eyes. They had been discovered.
They had been hoping for luck for so long and had not dared to do anything out of line. They all knew what Master Ying Yuan asked them to do this time. If they did it, they would be doomed.
Having received favors from Master Ying Yuan, they could not refuse.
However, they were unexpectedly sent to this book repair office before they even started any action.
Fortunately, their lives were saved, but they could no longer help Young Master Ying Yuan.
They obediently followed the director of the book repair office to their posts, and were then assigned a large number of things. This would be their workplace from then on.
At this moment, the burden in their hearts was suddenly lifted.
