After I was Exiled, I Became a Noble Minister - Chapter 227
Mu Wanqing was very familiar with the process of answering the order, and led everyone to kneel to accept the order.
The clerk began to issue the imperial decree, the content shocked everyone, what? Move up to Beijing? Tobe’s left servant? Did you hear that right?
Mu Wanqing got the wind long ago, thanked her very calmly, and arranged a table to entertain the group.
In the eyes of everyone, he is a general who is not afraid of honor and shame.
The guests exploded.
“Congratulations to the county lord, Hexi county lord.”
Mu Wanqing looked at the people with different expressions and cupped her hands, “Thank you.”
Xiliang officials were in a particularly complicated mood. They were used to doing things under Mu Wanqing’s hands and obeying her arrangements.
Although I am busy every day, I am filled with a sense of accomplishment when I look at the city that is changing day by day.
She has hills and valleys in her chest, and her ability is outstanding. She not only drives the economy of Xiliang, but also promotes the formation of an industrial chain of cotton. The people’s livelihood has been greatly improved, and the people have gradually lived a good life.
She is fair and generous, formulating a series of systems, high salaries and honesty, good benefits for officials, and clear rewards and punishments.
Her contribution to Xiliang is obvious to all and deserves the respect of all.
Sun Tongzhi couldn’t help but red eyes, “County Lord, Xiliang can’t live without you, don’t go.”
“The county magistrate, please stay.”
She has become the backbone of Xiliang, and everyone panics a little at the thought of her leaving.
Yes, the decree has been made, and this matter is a final decision, there is no room for manoeuvre.
Mu Wanqing smiled slightly, “Everything is on the right track here in Xiliang, and it will get better and better.”
As long as those in power don’t mess around and act according to the rules within the framework she set, nothing will go wrong.
Miss Du was surprised, “Sister Wanqing, I really don’t want you to leave.”
Mu Wanqing patted her arm, smiling like a flower, “Can you come to the capital to play with me.”
Can that be the same? Miss Du opened her mouth with all kinds of feelings in her heart.
She is more worried about her younger brother’s marriage. Once Mu Wanqing returns to the capital, the two will be separated by thousands of miles. Is there any chance?
The Mu family’s reaction was particularly big, “Patriarch, are you really going back to the capital?” How could it be like a dream.
“Yes.”
Everyone looked at each other, half happy and half sad.
The joy is that, as the patriarch of the Mu clan, the bigger Mu Wanqing’s official position is, the better it will be for them.
They look forward to her rising.
The worry is that they were ready to settle down in the border and take root in Liangcheng, and suddenly they have the opportunity to return to Beijing, and their hearts are eager to move.
The capital is the homeland they deeply miss, and the capital is better than Xiliang in all aspects.
But let them give up everything in Liangcheng, they can’t do it.
“If you leave, what will happen to this stall in Xiliang? Where should we go?”
Mu Wanqing can understand their mood at this time, “The foundation of Xiliang has been laid and the framework is set up, as long as it is strictly implemented according to my ten-year plan, Xiliang will usher in huge development. .”
“I will find a way to choose a successor who can inherit my governing philosophy. The Mu’s Snack Street will not be affected. Everyone can stay if they want, or they can go back to the capital with them.”
The people of the tribe are struggling hard. To tell the truth, they have houses and shops in Xiliang, live and work in peace and contentment, and everything is good.
But, all this is under the protection of Mu Wanqing.
Mu Wanqing let them make their own choices, “I will face countless open guns and dark arrows when I return to the capital this time. Don’t worry, there is time.”
She temporarily appeased the clansmen and asked them to go back and have a good discussion.
When the guests dispersed and the family closed the door, Mu Yiye asked impatiently, “Qing’er, did you already know?”
Mu Wanqing looked at her family, they were very nervous.
“Du Shaoxuan mentioned a sentence in the letter, but before the decree was issued, anything could happen, so I didn’t tell you, I’m afraid you won’t be able to sleep at night because of your worries.”
Mu Yiye can understand her thoughts, no, he has begun to worry about gains and losses. “What did the emperor think?”
Mu Wanqing pursed her lips, “The current situation is unstable, and the emperor urgently needs someone who is good at economics to be responsible for rebuilding this area. For the sake of the world, I have no shirk.”
For her, Xiliang is her first stage, where she completed the accumulation of original experience.
However, this is only the beginning, not the end.
She is aiming for the court and a higher position.
Looking at her shining daughter, Mu Yiye was full of pride, what more could a husband want if he had a daughter?
Mrs. Mu Yi couldn’t calm down, “But those officials can’t tolerate you, they can do anything in front of their interests, Qinger, why don’t you resign?”
Mu Yiye glared at his wife angrily, “Don’t talk nonsense, do you want your daughter to resist the edict?”
Mu Wanqing took back Mrs. Mu Yi’s arm and said softly, “I will be fifteen when they are in the first year of the first year of the new year. What are you afraid of? Besides, the emperor will protect me. Ask the emperor to call me some top experts and protect me in secret.”
These words still can’t make Mrs. Mu Yi relax, “I’m still worried, Qing’er, you are still young and haven’t been exposed to too much darkness of human nature, those unscrupulous people are very scary, you should write a letter Resign from the position of the left servant of the Ministry of Household, and live a peaceful and stable life in Xiliang, I believe that the emperor will not blame you for your previous achievements.”
“But I want to do it.” Mu Wanqing made no secret of her ambition, “I want to do something vigorous in my life, I don’t want to be famous in history, I just want to stay in this era. Traces that belong to me alone.”
“Live, struggle, and splendid.”
The Mu family looked at her blankly, she actually had such an ambition.
“I support my sister.”
“I also support my sister. I live forever, I am not willing to be mediocre, and I do not regret my choice.”
Mrs. Mu Yi sighed helplessly, she had no idea what to do with her. “Then we want to transfer all the properties in our hands?”
She sucked in a distressed breath. The Snack Street is a hen that lays golden eggs, and Shuimu Farm is a money grabbing machine.
I still have a place to go back to.”
Actually, she didn’t want to bring her parents back to the turbulent capital, it was too unsafe.
Mu Yiye and his wife looked at each other, and what they said made sense, Xiliang is their territory, and they can come back at any time.
The Qingping Army was the name Mu Wanqing gave to her subordinate Women’s Army, so it was easier to remember.
Mu Wanqing had thought about it for a long time, “Big brother is going to take a scientific examination, so we just go back together. I will keep the first brother as a contact. If something happens, the other brother will run back and forth.”
“Okay. That’s it.”
The property at home remains unchanged, and official business is much more troublesome.
Mu Wanqing came to visit Du Shuai specially to discuss the list of successors.
She is qualified to nominate a successor, and Du Shuai also has a vote. If the two reach an agreement, they will jointly recommend it and the court will approve it.
Mu Wanqing has always been an actionist, she will do what she says. “Du Shuai, who do you have?”
Du Shuai looked at the girl with extraordinary temperament in front of him, and his mood was quite complicated. The back waves pushed the front waves, and the front waves died on the beach.
“Sun Tongzhi was in charge of city affairs before, and after he became your subordinate, he didn’t make a fuss. He assisted you diligently and had a good character. Although his ability is far less than yours, he is a dwarf. There is no better general than him.”
Before Mu Wanqing took over, Sun Tongzhi did a good job in this area, making Xiliang safe and sound, which is remarkable. But people’s livelihood withered, business loneliness.
“He can’t handle such a large amount of work alone, and he can’t be busy. Moreover, he believes in the middle way of doing things, and it’s okay to keep things successful, but he is not decisive enough when encountering things.”
Sun Tongzhi has obvious advantages and disadvantages. He is an old minister and has participated in various construction work. He is a good executor.
Mu Wanqing set up a framework and needed a gentle person to execute it. Sun Tongzhi was actually quite suitable.
Place an ambitious person, and maybe he will overthrow the former’s things.
However, as a helmsman, his mind and means are still almost meaningless, not enough to kill and make decisions.
Du Shuai frowned slightly, “Do you have any good advice?”
More
A cobbler is a Zhuge Liang.
Du Shuai has no objection, “Yes, just five people, the number of people is more powerful, you can decide the list.”
Mu Wanqing tapped on the table, her red lips slightly lifted, “Sun Tongzhi is in charge of general management, Miss Du is in charge of business, Jiang Donglai is in charge of agriculture, and Qian Dayou is in charge of industry…”
Du Sifu originally had an experienced division, a division division, and a prison division, which was responsible for all official document exchanges and prisons.
Nowadays there are more industrial commerce and cotton industry, the workload has increased a lot, but the sector has not increased, just take this opportunity to expand.
She simply divided the affairs at hand into five parts, so the head office should be.
She took all aspects into consideration, not only left Sun Tongzhi with dignity, but also brought in the Du family, aggravating women’s right to speak.
Jiang Donglai was an official who she personally promoted. She is good at farming and is a down-to-earth person.
Qian Dayou is now helping her take care of Fufeng City, and can be transferred back to lead the industry.
Du Shuai thought about it carefully and thought it was feasible, “There is still one person left.”
The most important thing in Xiliang is cotton, and Mu Wanqing is naturally handed over to someone she trusts.
“I will request to build kapok lifting divisions in various places at the meeting, and Mu Zicheng is in charge of the Xiliang kapok lifting division.”
Du Shuai:…
“Does your elder brother know that you arranged him so clearly?”
Mu Zicheng has not passed the entrance exam yet, so she has planned his life.
Mu Wanqing does not shy away from her relatives, “He knows the cotton field like the back of his hand, and he has experienced it in the past two years. Let him try it out.”
Mianhua was built by her, everyone only recognizes her, and mu Zicheng also said it as her spokesperson.
What’s more, the particularity of Shuimu Farm is destined to be unable to bypass the Mu family.
As long as Mu Zicheng has a firm grasp on cotton, the Mu family will still be in an invincible position in Xiliang, and the industry will not be coveted and taken away.
Du Shuai gave her a deep look, “You played a big game of chess, these steps are exquisite, you have carefully planned them from the beginning.”
If she guessed correctly, she has started the layout since she built the Shuimu Farm, step by step.
Arranging mu Zicheng to enter the imperial examination is the most critical step, and it is the other hand of Mu Wanqing.
In the past two years, she has been instructed by her family, spurred them frantically, and threw them to various positions to practice, just for today.
Mu Wanqing did not deny, “I will never pin my hopes on others.”
Only relying on herself is the most reliable. If the Mu family wants to prosper, she cannot rely on her alone.
Du Shuai was silent, such a scheming is daunting, but fortunately, her conduct is fine.
He is old, and he can’t play with these young people.
“Aren’t you afraid of Mu Zicheng’s failure? The capital is not as good as Xiliang, there are so many talents, so they may not pass the examination. Besides, the imperial examination not only requires the right time and place, but also a bit of luck. “
It was not all smooth sailing for those prodigies to take the imperial examination, and some of them never passed the exam in their entire lives.
Mu Wanqing waved her hand with a smile, “It’s okay, I still have several backup plans.”
Mu Zicheng is more than one of the children of the Mu family who came to Beijing to take the exam.
Du Shuai:…
Mu Wanqing came over suddenly, “Du Shuai, I want to ask you a favor, only you can help me.”
Du Shuai:…
I always feel like she doesn’t do good things, can you refuse?
