    The weather at the end of September is getting cooler day by day.  Even the breeze blows in the morning and evening, adding a bit of chill.

    Linzi City is becoming more and more lively.

    Especially in the second half of the year, after the autumn harvest, people have almost finished their work for the year. They all go out to go shopping, buy new year's goods, and prepare one or two new clothes for their children.

    Even though there is still some time before the New Year¡¯s Eve, the markets in the city are becoming more and more lively.

    Compared to the bustle of the people, Duan Jiuzhen's mansion in Linzi City is a bit deserted.

    The Duan family lives in Xuzhou, so most of the Duan family members live in Xuzhou and have never gone north to live in Linzi.  However, on weekdays, Duan Jiuzhen's mansion is always bustling with people coming and going.

    After all, Duan Jiuzhen is the head of the Supervision Department and is in charge of one department.  Even though he is in the government, he is not responsible for specific government affairs.  But supervising local affairs is like hanging a sharp sword over the head of the local magistrate.

    It is to say that although Duan Jiuzhen is old and does not have military power, he can influence officials at any time, so many people are fawning over him and hope to build a good relationship with him.

    Recently, news came back from Kuaiji County, saying that personnel from the local Supervision Department in Zhang'an County colluded with local officials and businessmen to frame the county magistrate Long Ying, which led to Long Ying's imprisonment.  As a result, all the personnel from the Supervision Department of Zhang'an County were beheaded by Wang Qi.

    As for the officials of the Supervision Department of Kuaiji County, a number of them were also dealt with.

    When the news spread, it immediately caused waves.

    Many people know that a storm is about to arise in the Supervision Department, so there are suddenly fewer people coming to visit Duan Jiuzhen, and there are only a few people around.

    In the study room, Duan Jiuzhen was reading.

    He is already very old, his temples are already white, his hair is sparse, and his face is covered with age spots.  He had thick bags under his eyes. Although he opened his eyes to read, to outsiders, his eyes seemed to be squinted, making him look old.

    Duan Jiuzhen read the book slowly. After a while, he turned another page of the book.

    ¡°Bang! Bang!!¡±

    A knock on the door came from outside the study.

    It took Duan Jiuzhen a while to come to his senses and ordered: "Come in."

    The door creaked open and a young man entered.  The young man's name is Duan Qicheng, the eldest grandson of Duan Jiuzhen. He is in his early twenties, elegant and handsome, but there is a trace of panic in his eyes at this moment.

    Duan Qicheng said: "Grandpa!"

    Duan Jiuzhen slowly put down the book and asked, "What's the matter?"

    Duan Qicheng said in a panic: "Grandpa, there is news from outside that King Qi's chariot is about to return to the royal capital. It is estimated that he will return to the palace soon. Our Supervision Department has made such a big mistake in Zhang'an County  , how can you still hold on? When the time comes, King Qi will definitely hold you accountable."

    Duan Jiuzhen opened his eyes. In an instant, his eyes widened, and a stern look flashed across his eyes.

    Immediately, Duan Jiuzhen regained his composure and said slowly: "Remember clearly, the Supervision Department has never belonged to our Duan family, but to King Qi. As for what happened this time, it is actually a good thing. I have long wanted to retire. This  Once when the King of Qi came back, I went to see him and took the blame and resigned. After all, what happened in Zhang'an County gave me reason to resign."

    "How can this be done?"

    When Duan Qicheng heard this, he immediately panicked.

    There was even more anxiety on his face. His grandfather was in charge of the Supervision Department. Although it was not comparable to the real power departments such as the Ministry of Revenue, the Ministry of Personnel, and the Ministry of War, in fact, the Supervision Department had a very special status as it was the place of supervision.

    Duan Jiuzhen said: "What's wrong?"

    Duan Qicheng said anxiously: "Once my grandfather resigns, our Duan family will lose influence in the court. This will have a huge impact on the Duan family."

    Duan Jiuzhen said: "What impact can it have? Is the Duan family going to do something big?"

    "this¡­¡­"

    Duan Qicheng was immediately speechless by the question.

    He stamped his feet and said: "Grandpa, you understand what my grandson means. If our Duan family does not advance, we will retreat. Once we retreat, the Duan family will not be able to become a wealthy family in Qi. Therefore, my grandfather serves in the Supervision Department, which is very important to our Duan family.  There are huge benefits.¡±

    Duan Jiuzhen put down the book in his hand, gathered his clothes, and said: "If virtue is not matched, you will have to suffer in the end. When I first helped the King of Qi, I was indeed full of fighting spirit. I was running around all year round to monitor local stability.  .¡±

    "To put it bluntly, Qi's stability is a result of my contribution."

    "Now that I am getting old, I no longer have the energy to take care of so many things. If I run outside for a day, I have to rest for three to five days when I get home."??Supervise all parts of Qi State.  "

    "yes!"

    Zhu Shanchang agreed directly.

    Zhu Shanchang is actually a little dissatisfied with Duan Jiuzhen.  After all, Duan Jiuzhen is old and lacks aggressiveness. It is not appropriate for Duan Jiuzhen to stay in the court at this time.

    Duan Jiuzhen was someone Wang Qi invited early on. It was obviously inappropriate for him to directly ask Duan Jiuzhen not to serve as an official.  After all, if the news spreads, it may create the impression that Wang Qi is mean.

    It would be best if Duan Jiuzhen resigns.

    Zhu Shanchang suddenly said: "Your Highness, the Japanese have been dealt with and the local area has been stabilized. How come we haven't seen Zhou Zishan's military advisor until now?"

    Wang Qi said: "Zhou's military advisor is now on an envoy to the Japanese country."

    "ah!"

    Zhu Shanchang was a little surprised and said: "Your Highness, we have solved the problem with the Japanese people. Moreover, this is killing the Japanese people. Will sending the military advisor to the Japanese country as an envoy at this time put the military advisor in danger?"

    Wang Qidao: "The military advisor who went to the Japanese country must have returned in triumph, so don't worry. The strength of the Japanese country is not comparable to ours. Therefore, the Japanese country sent people to pretend to be bandits and squat on the sea to plunder everywhere. If the Japanese people were strong, they would have been there long ago.  Coming to kill."

    Zhu Shan said: "Your Highness is wise."

    Wang Qi said: "Now we just have to look forward to what kind of conditions the Japanese will give us."

    Zhu Shanchang nodded.

    Wang Qi also asked about the situation of this year's autumn harvest. The overall harvest this year is very good. Whether it is potatoes or corn, it is a bumper harvest. In addition, peppers, peanuts, tomatoes, etc. have been spread.  Previously, the seeds Hardmon brought back from overseas were planted on a large scale and then used.

    In the officialdom, the overall situation is not bad.

    At least the development of Qi State is very good at present, and it is a prosperous scene.

    Wang Qi is satisfied with all this.

    Today¡¯s Qi State is developing very well.  After Zhu Shanchang left, Wang Qi got up and went to the harem.  He was free for the time being, and after such a long time, it was time to get together with his family.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
