The demon world I designed

When Chen Qing arrived at the Yamen, the capital of Jiangnan, it was already dusk the next day. Fortunately, Liuzhou was not far from Nanmingfu, the capital of Jiangnan. If the capital was set up in Suyang like the previous dynasty, he would have to take a two-day boat ride to get there. arrive.

When he hurried to the government office, there were still government servants guarding the door. It was obvious that the chief envoy had not left his duty yet, so he quickly stepped forward and announced his name: "Brother, please let me know that Chen Qing, the new prefect of Liuzhou, is here. Report.”

The energetic government servant, who was obviously from the Lian family, quickly stood up straight: "Master Chen, right? You can just come with me. The chief envoy has been waiting for a long time."

"Oh? That's it. I'm sorry, brother."

"Your Majesty, you're welcome!" The other party quickly replied cautiously. It was rare for a literati to be so polite to a junior official like them, which made him a little flattered.

Chen Qing's heart sank slightly. He traveled all night and arrived at his post earlier than the group of Jinshi who went to Liuzhou with him. Few people should know about it. How could the chief envoy act like he knew this? Do you want to come by yourself?

It seemed that the old emperor still had control of his whereabouts.

Following the clerk all the way to the government office hall, the other party informed him, and then he saw an elegant and gentle middle-aged man coming to the door to greet him.

"But Mr. Chen, the new prefect of Liuzhou?"

"It's the lower official..." Chen Qing glanced at the other party's third-rank official, and quickly stepped forward to salute: "I have met the Chief Envoy."

"Master Chen, you have worked hard all the way. Please come with me."

Gong Qinian was very polite to this new little adult. The reason was the information revealed by Xuezheng Mu Hongqing yesterday.

According to Mu Hongqing, the incident of Mr. Painted Skin in Liuzhou seemed to have been discovered by this new Jinshi, and it was said that this new Jinshi had made great contributions in the capital, so he was promoted exceptionally. He was young and had just entered the officialdom. The rise of a fourth-rank official is the only example of this kind in the twenty years of the Jin Dynasty, and it is even more exaggerated than the two people who were once in the limelight, Fei Jun and Wang Ye.

Without any doubt, Gong Qinian determined that the other party, like Wang Ye, was a warlock!

Different from the fear of the warriors of the Bloodline House, the civil servants are very fawning over the existence of warlocks, because unlike the Bloodline House, which relies on reincarnation to make a living, ordinary people do not have such things as bloodlines. Although the existence of warlocks Mysterious, but something ordinary people can reach out and touch.

Although qualifications are very selective, this feeling is the same as the scientific examination for literati. As long as you work hard enough and have enough qualifications, you can get ahead regardless of your origin. After all, which Jinshi is not one in a million? Therefore, relatively speaking, civil servants have higher recognition of warlocks.

Moreover, the court has opened the Warlock Academy, and officials from various places with good political performance have the right to recommend their juniors. This system is even more popular among civil servants.

"My lord, you are so polite..." Chen Qing was flattered when he saw the other party personally pouring tea for him, a junior official who had just taken office. He quickly stood up and said, "How can I, this junior, bear this? Please take a seat, and the junior official can do it himself." good!"

Gong Qinian's brows straightened when he saw this, and he seemed to be a man who knew the rules.

Most civil servants with sorcerer qualifications are extremely arrogant. I have seen a lot of them over the years, but few are as humble as the young man in front of me. It seems that I have good luck. There was Mu Hongqing before me, and now there is such a promising person. younger generation.

Not bad, not bad. It seems like we can hang out more. If we get to know each other in the future, I can recommend the junior to go to the Warlock Academy, or ask him to take care of him. Oh, by the way, this guy looks so young. I wonder if he is engaged?

I'll ask about it later...

"Mr. Chen, are you here for Liuzhou's supplies?" Gong Qinian resisted the urge to talk about marriage directly and got down to business first.

"Exactly..." Chen Qing suddenly had a bitter look on his face: "Xiaguan came all the way, but he didn't know that the situation in Liuzhou had deteriorated to this extent. The entire state capital was like a ghost town. Xiaguan has little experience and really doesn't know what to do!"

"Ah... Well, hahaha, Mr. Chen, don't worry." Gong Qinian quickly comforted you: "There is nothing you can do in this special situation. Don't worry, Mr. Chen, if you need any support, I will do my best to help you."

Just waiting for your words!

Chen Qing said quickly: "Sir, with the current situation in Liuzhou, tax revenue will definitely not be expected for the time being."

"Don't worry!" The other party waved his hand: "I have reported Liuzhou's tax revenue this year to the court. There is no need to hand it over. All of it will be used to rebuild Liuzhou. I will also mobilize Jiangnan's finance and taxation to assist Liuzhou."

"Thank you for your support, sir!" Chen Qing burst into tears of gratitude, then stood up and said: "There is also the progress of the various salt and tea ceremonies that need to be made. I am afraid that I will have to delay it."

"Don't worry about this. The officials from various channels have communicated with you and will give Liuzhou enough time to deal with the situation."

"The other thing is manpower..." Chen Qing struck while the iron was hot: "I have been to the Liuzhou government office, but it is now empty. It is difficult to find officials to handle errands, and there is a vacancy in the general army to defend the city. There are no officers and soldiers, please help me arrange it."

"This..." Gong Qinian was suddenly in a dilemma. It was easy for the other party to ask for money, but it was a bit troublesome to ask for people.

If Liuzhou can send people now, Liuzhou will not be like this...

"To be honest..." Gong Qinian hesitated for a moment, then confessed: "It is quite difficult to mobilize manpower now. What happened in Liuzhou is too shocking. Mr. Chen is also from a farming background. He must also know that ordinary people have so-called My ability to accept incidents involving monsters and ghosts is not very strong. After all, my memory was blocked back then. It is difficult for anyone to accept this kind of thing suddenly. So now everyone is very resistant to going to Liuzhou, and it is difficult for me to handle it. ah……"

"Sealed the memory?" Chen Qing was stunned.

"Master Chen, don't you know?" Gong Qinian was confused. The other party was a warlock, so he didn't know this, right?

"I really don't know," Chen Qing said honestly.

He said that he had lived in this world for twenty years, but he had never heard any elder mention anything about monsters. According to Wang Ye, the world was not at peace for long. In terms of years, it was just when he was born. It was peaceful for a while.

How could my parents and the older elders know nothing about demons?

The imperial court could ban the books of the previous dynasty, but could it also ban the mouths of rural people?

"That's it..." Gong Qinian nodded, thinking that this man's master warlock didn't even tell him this?

So he didn't hide it and told the matter directly. After all, within the officialdom, this matter was not considered a secret.

"Back then, a certain unspeakable existence proposed the idea of ​​the coexistence of demons and demons. If you want demons to coexist, you must first make people forget their fear of demons. Therefore, a large-scale spell was launched. The common people of the entire Jin Dynasty The common people have forgotten their memories of demons!”

"ha?"

Chen Qing was stunned...

And this awesome technique? Covering the entire Jin Dynasty?

He also read the geographical records. The Jin Dynasty was a vast territory, almost ten times that of China in the previous life. The population of the Jin Dynasty was 200,000 households. Damn, what magic technique is so ridiculous?

Change the memories of two billion households? Even if it is to change the memories of ordinary people, is this an exaggeration?

"Sir, do you know... what is the name of that technique?" Chen Qing asked curiously.

"I heard some adults mentioned it." Gong Qinian said quickly: "It seems to be called Yuedou..."

Chen Qing: "……."

God is so good at monthly reading, labor and management are still fighting against the sky and the stars...

Isn't this King Qin a comic book nerd?

After reading Liu Yu's letter, he was basically sure that King Qin was the predecessor who traveled through time, but he was not sure about the identity of the other party. After all, many of King Qin's deeds were taboo and difficult to inquire about.

Now that he heard this rumor, he was still very interested, and he couldn't help but wonder how the other party did it?

In my own setting, the only one who can change the memory is the Thousand-Faced Fox, but even if the Thousand-Faced Fox evolves to its final form, it cannot change the memories of two billion people at once!

There is something about this time-traveling senior, how did you get it out of it?

Could it be...

Chen Qing had an idea in mind, but whether it was exactly as he guessed, he had to wait until his troublesome concubine came from the capital to ask.

"That's it. I understand, I understand...it means that it's difficult for your Excellency to help me find suitable officials, right?" Chen Qing asked about the official matter.

"This..." Gong Qinian was confused: "It's really difficult to handle. Otherwise... Mr. Chen, try recruiting in affiliated counties or rural areas."

"Am I recruiting on a temporary basis?" Chen Qing suddenly felt a little embarrassed: "Some of the petty officials in the government office are okay, but what about the city gate soldiers in charge of the state government? You have to recruit them from other general soldiers, right? Now Liuzhou's new general soldier has been There is no news, the troops stationed outside Liuzhou have also been transferred by the court..."

"This..." Gong Qinian sighed: "To be honest with Mr. Chen, the soldiers have been in even more trouble recently, because after the incident broke out, even half of General Yuchi's soldiers were replaced by Mr. Painting Skin, and the soldiers stationed in Liuzhou Many soldiers have also been replaced, and now people are panicking. The superiors are facing a stricter investigation by the Jiangnan military, and they will not be able to allocate manpower in a short time. "

"Then what should we do?" Chen Qing suddenly showed a worried expression.

"Actually, Mr. Chen, there is no need to worry. The security of our Jiangnan waterways has always been very good. Although Liuzhou's navy has been temporarily transferred, other state capitals can help, so there will be no major problems for the time being."

"As for the officers and soldiers in Fucheng, I can apply for the privilege for you to recruit by yourself. The number below five hundred should not be a problem. As for the cost of recruitment, Mr. Chen can rest assured. You can calculate the budget and report it to me. ”

"Is this possible?" Chen Qing suddenly looked grateful.

But I was also excited in my heart. This was actually why I came. I didn't expect that the other party would let go so easily.

"In urgent matters, follow the authority... Mr. Chen, don't worry too much. I will definitely support you in restoring order in Liuzhou."

"In this case, I will thank you on behalf of the people of Liuzhou!" Chen Qing quickly saluted.

It was really smoother than expected. If it was a normal local city, it would still be a bit troublesome for me to get the military power. Even though I just got the power of the government soldiers, it was crucial to my next plan.

After all, he started his career as a Shinto-style guardian!
