Chapter 356 Qi Ye Returns, Makes Arrangements for Several Generals
"Your Highness, the candidates from all over the country have arrived."
"What should be done next?"
The Prince of Zhennan arrived at the Shenwu Palace to report on the examination matters to Qin Wu.
They've been working incredibly hard to arrange these exams.
He has only just finished his work and has come to report back to Qin Wu.
"Send someone to observe these people carefully, to see if there are any useful talents, and also to see what their character is like. Our Eastern Qin needs talented people, but those who are not of good character are useless."
As Qin Wu spoke, he pointed to the seat next to him.
He was still flipping through the memorials in his hands.
"Yes, Your Highness, I will arrange for people to observe carefully. However, there are quite a few people this time, so we can only monitor some of the more famous candidates."
After the Prince of Zhennan sat down, he reported to Qin Wu.
Monitoring tens of millions of test takers would require an enormous amount of manpower and resources.
"Well, you decide what to do. Here's a test. Send it over to the candidates who are interested. Those who answer well, I'll have a poetry gathering held for them in a few days and invite them to participate. That way, we can see who has real talent."
"We can also select some good people. Then the Poetry Society will take a good look at their character."
Qin Wu handed a booklet to the Prince of Zhennan.
He continued to instruct the Prince of Zhennan, saying that he also wanted to see how the current candidates were doing.
Another reason is to use it as a supplement before major exams.
"Yes, Your Majesty understands."
The Prince of Zhennan took the booklet and carefully put it away.
"Hmm, you haven't seen the princesses for a long time, have you? Why don't you stay and have lunch with them today!"
Qin Wu nodded, gave a brief instruction, and then gestured for the Prince of Zhennan to step down.
"Thank you, Your Highness. I shall take my leave now."
The Prince of Zhennan bowed and withdrew.
Not long after the Prince of Zhennan left, Qi Ye walked in.
"Your Majesty."
"sit."
Qin Wu said calmly.
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
"Your Highness, the situation in the Central Region is now in its final stages, but some remnants of the Immortal Sects are still on the run."
"We have also completely erased the Immortal Sect's mark on our region."
Qi Ye sat down and reported the situation of the Central Region battlefield to Qin Wu.
They took over the Immortal Sect's territory in no time, but many Immortal Sect disciples fled when they saw the situation was not good and are now hiding in various places.
He returned to report first, leaving the task of the manhunt to others.
"Yes, just have someone hunt them down. I will arrange for the Luo Wang (Net of Heaven) to enter the Central Region; they will be in charge of this matter."
"Can all the items belonging to the Immortal Sect be confiscated?"
Qin Wu nodded slightly.
The Immortal Sect is actually just a sect with a slightly larger influence; they might be very powerful in a one-on-one fight.
However, in a large-scale war, they were no match at all.
Especially when facing the Divine Martial Army with its military formations, they are completely outmatched.
It's not surprising that they were able to defeat Qin Wu of the Immortal Sect so quickly.
The next step is to send officials to take over all the cities in the Central Region, but there are not enough officials in the Eastern Qin at present, so this matter will have to be postponed for some time.
"They're all on their way and will be delivered soon."
Qi Ye said.
"Hmm, can we pass on the information about the scientific expedition in the Central Region?"
Qin Wu inquired.
He plans to include the Central Region in this scientific expedition, since managing the Central Region still requires some people from the Central Region.
It's impossible to select all of them from these mainland countries.
Otherwise, those people in the Central Region might not dare to do anything openly, but they would definitely try to trip them up in private.
Qin Wu didn't need to cause trouble for himself; he should give them some benefits instead. A combination of kindness and severity was the way of the king.
"The notification has been sent out, and they are making preparations. It should be soon that they will arrive together with the people from the four ancient clans."
Qi Ye reported that they had already notified the others.
However, since the major powers in the Central Region value martial arts over literature, it is almost impossible for them to participate in the literary examination.
Their focus was entirely on the martial arts test.
However, the four ancient clans of the Central Region are already building academies in their territories, and they will be completed soon.
Then they can recruit students from outside. The four ancient clans have each established their own academies, which are under their control.
This was the privilege they sought from Qin Wu, and Qin Wu did not refuse. After all, the dynasty was open to all, so how could Qin Wu refuse such a good thing as them cultivating talents for the dynasty?
Moreover, even if they established academies, the best academies in Dongqin were still controlled by their royal family.
In fact, Qin Wu also planned two academies in Xindu: one was the Eastern Qin Royal Academy, which focused on literature, and the other was the Divine Martial Academy, which focused on martial arts.
Both academies will be managed by the royal family and him.
Moreover, these two institutions of higher learning will receive a large supply of resources in the future, specifically for cultivating talents for Dongqin.
"Alright, you'll be in charge of receiving them then. The Prince of Zhennan and his three companions can't control these people."
"Once they arrive, make sure they don't clash with other candidates. Making an example of them is also acceptable."
Qin Wu nodded.
And Qi Ye was put in charge of the reception arrangements.
After all, he was well aware of how much the people of the Central Region looked down on the people of these continents.
In their eyes, the people of this continent were nothing more than ants.
Otherwise, they wouldn't hold a battle every hundred years, causing rivers of blood to flow across these continents.
"Your Highness, rest assured, I will arrange everything."
Qi Ye accepted the order.
"By the way, you four, this time when you come back, I will bestow marriages upon you. If you have someone you like, you can tell me."
Qin Wu glanced at Qi Ye.
These guys only know how to fight and cultivate all day long, and none of them have gotten married in over a hundred years.
It just so happens that Qin Wu is currently planning to have an heir.
If they get married, and later have children, their children can grow up together with their offspring, cultivating a bond from a young age.
This can also be seen as making arrangements for one's offspring in advance.
Qi Ye was completely stunned when he heard Qin Wu's words.
Weren't we talking about serious business? How did we suddenly get onto the topic of arranged marriage?
"Now that the world is unified, there are not so many wars to fight. You are not young anymore. You have accompanied me in battle for so many years. Now it is time to think about your marriage."
Qin Wu glanced at Qi Ye again and said calmly.
"Your Highness, let's just drop this matter! We're all used to it."
Qi Ye tentatively asked.
He dared not refute Qin Wu's words, but he really had never thought about getting married!
"There's no room for discussion. I've already asked your sister-in-law to help you find someone suitable. Once they return, if you haven't found anyone suitable, I will bestow a marriage upon you directly."
"Don't try to bargain with me, or I'll break your legs."
Qin Wu said coldly, his tone leaving no room for argument.
Qi Ye knew that there was no turning back now, and he could only drag his head down.
“You bunch of rascals, I’ve told you so many times, and you always make excuses.”
"Your fiefdoms have been chosen. Once you have your fiefdoms and homes, you'll have done right by your parents."
Qin Wu continued.
Qin Wu had already considered everything for his generals.
Moreover, Qin Wu did not want them to be alone forever.
"Alright, Your Highness, then you must ask your sister-in-law to help us find a good one. I don't want trouble at home."
Qi Ye had no choice but to agree.
Although their parents have passed away long ago, they have never forgotten them.
He used to be determined to destroy the Northern Barbarians to avenge his parents. After the Northern Barbarians were destroyed, he accompanied Qin Wu in his campaigns and never stopped.
I gradually got used to being alone.
"rest assured."
Qin Wu nodded.
"Having only one head is annoying to look at, get lost."
Qin Wu looked at Qi Ye's appearance and chuckled and cursed.
"Yes, I'll be right away."
After Qi Ye finished speaking, he disappeared.
As for Liu Feng and the others, they had already started families, but their wives were all chosen from among the secret guards.
