Officials have been prohibited from doing business in all dynasties, because under the influence of power and profit, it has brought too many disadvantages.
It is conceivable that if all the officials use their power to make a lot of money, the businessmen and the people will have no way to survive.
Although a restaurant does not have a monopoly on the market, it is still within the scope of business.
This matter can range from being demoted to being demoted, but can lead to a loss of life.
Liu Changqing can really kill with one strike.
Now let alone transfer, whether Hu Xiu can keep his official position is a question.
Dou Jianzhang immediately panicked and said quickly: "This, this is impossible, Mr. Hu has always been self-denial and diligent."
Xiao Yuan's face had already darkened and he said coldly: "This is the first official business case in our country. It must be verified and there can be no omissions!"
After saying this, Dou Jianzhang dared to say another word. He subconsciously swallowed and returned to the train.
Next, there was another recommendation for officials.
A group of ministers proposed many candidates, and Jia You even suggested that Zheng Pei be transferred to Beiling County Governor.
Before Xiao Yuan entered the Qin Dynasty, Zheng Pei served as the magistrate of Qingshan County. Later, he followed Xiao Yuan and was promoted to the governor of Beiling County. Judging from his resume, it is true that he has served in the border areas, more or less, with I have had dealings with Western Xinjiang and I know a lot about the customs and customs of Western Xinjiang.
But in Xiao Yuan's heart, he was not the best candidate.
This court meeting was not only about official recommendation, but also discussed many issues in Western Xinjiang. It was not until almost noon that Xiao Yuan dismissed the court with a wave of his hand.
Obviously, the Changzhi of Western Xinjiang cannot be agreed upon in a day or two.
After going down to court, on the steps outside the main hall, the ministers walked together in twos and threes, discussing something in low voices as they walked.
"Master Liu, Master Liu." Jiang Yi took a few steps to catch up with Liu Changqing.
The latter paused slightly, stopped for a moment and said, "Is there something wrong, Mr. Jiang?"
"Master Liu will not give up and wants to go with you." Jiang Yi cupped his hand. In his opinion, Liu Changqing was of great help today. Although he is very annoying, politically, it is worth easing the relationship.
Liu Changqing glanced at him: "It's up to you."
"Haha." Jiang Yi laughed dryly and said while walking side by side with him: "Today, Mr. Liu hit the mark with his words. He is truly worthy of being the elder of Qinzhou."
"Lord Jiang, you are overthinking it. I am just speaking based on the facts. The importance of Western Border is related to the country, so there is no reason not to report it." Liu Changqing said.
"Yes, yes, Mr. Liu is right. Western Xinjiang is so important, how can it be transferred by Hu Xiu." Jiang Yi agreed, and then said: "Everyone is an official in the same dynasty, and we all share the worries of the king, just like Mr. Liu has free time. , how about we get together at noon and have a few drinks together.”
"Forget it, we have different ways and we don't want to work together. It's better for you and me to go our separate ways, so as not to make Mr. Jiang uncomfortable." Liu Changqing refused directly.
"You!" Jiang Yi's face turned red as she was choked. Thinking that he would take the initiative to come up to her, and being ridiculed again, she was inevitably embarrassed and angry, but just as she was about to get angry, Liu Changqing had already left.
An official behind him also came up, glanced at Liu Changqing's back, shook his head and said, "Liu Changqing is like a stone in that pit. Why should Mr. Jiang be familiar with him?"
"That's unreasonable! This person is so disrespectful!" Jiang Yi shook her sleeves angrily.
the other side.
After going to court, Dou Jianzhang rushed to Hu Xiu's place immediately.
When the two parties met, Hu Xiu greeted him personally, bowed his hands and said, "Teacher."
"You! You are so stupid!" Dou Jianzhang came up and scolded him.
Hu Xiu was stunned. The current leader of Qinzhou, Bo, was not qualified to participate in the court meeting unless there were special circumstances, so he didn't know what happened. He couldn't help but cautiously said: "Why is my teacher so angry? But there is something wrong with the students." place."
Dou Jianzhang said angrily: "Today, your Majesty has set up a Protectorate's Palace regarding the issue of Western Xinjiang. I originally wanted to recommend you as the Protectorate of Western Xinjiang, but who would have thought that Liu Changqing stood up and impeached you on the spot. Officials do business! It makes the king angry, now, it is simply impossible!"
"What!?" Hu Xiu's eyes widened when he heard this. In panic, he stammered: "This, this, the student has never had any issues with Liu Changqing, why is this..."
"Why don't you celebrate the festival with ease! No one in the Manchu Dynasty has ever offended Liu Changqing!" Dou Jianzhang said with hatred: "Now it's not the problem of the envoy, it's the problem of you doing business as an official! Why are you so stupid! With a small It's just a small gain, but it doesn't matter when it comes to fame and career!"
The imperial court appoints officials, and with power in hand, businessmen are nothing.
Scholars, farmers, industry and merchants, and Qin officials were all scholar-bureaucrats. In the eyes of scholar-bureaucrats, it was extremely ridiculous to get involved in business and pursue small profits.
Hu Xiu was Dou Jianzhang's student, so it's no wonder he was so angry.
The latter said in a trembling voice: "This, this, this, my teacher has learned clearly that no matter how stupid the student is, he will never make such a mistake. This is Liu Changqing's spouting."
"Then tell me, what's going on at Qinzhou Restaurant!" Dou Jianzhang asked.
"This, this." Hu Xiu was already in a panic. After a quick search in his mind, he immediately said: "The student remembered that the Qinzhou Restaurant was opened by a distant relative of mine, and some of them were named after me. No., the student thought, they are relatives after all, so he didn't interfere much in the hope that his business would be better, and the restaurant really had nothing to do with the student."
"Stupid!" Dou Jianzhang cursed angrily: "In your name, isn't that just a handle!"
"The restaurant, the restaurant must have relevant business documents, which can prove that the students have nothing to do with this matter. The teacher must believe me." Hu Xiu said anxiously.
Lord Bo of the prefecture and county may not have a high status, but Qinzhou is the capital, and Lord Bo of Qinzhou has a lot of real power. If Hu Xiu really wanted to make money, there was no need to get involved in any business or put himself on the line. Roast.
He can definitely withhold some business-related documents. If he delays in approving them, the businessman will have to give him heavy gifts.
In addition, he was Dou Jianzhang's student. After thinking about it, the latter believed his words, but he still said: "This has just happened. In my opinion, it won't be long before you are asked to be questioned. "
"Ah?" Hu Xiu swallowed.
Dou Jianzhang continued: "It seems that the person who invited you is the Duweiying or the Yushifu. The Yushifu is okay, but if it is the Duweiying, there will be big trouble!"
What kind of organization is the Duwei Camp? It is designed to remove all obstacles for the king. It only obeys the king's orders and has the power to handle official cases.
In Qin's official circles, no one wanted to be approached by him.
Hu Xiu suddenly became even more panicked, and said anxiously: "Teacher, save me, teacher, save me, the student has been wronged..."
