Governor please stay

"You two seem to be living a very leisurely life."

At this moment, the courtyard door was pushed open, and Liu Yishou came in wearing coarse cotton clothes and said.

Although this style is very monotonous and even crude, in fact, the cost of cotton spinning is very high nowadays, and the cost of cotton is still high, and the supply exceeds demand.This is a very comfortable cotton coat in autumn, and it is expensive.

It's not that he wants to wear coarse clothes to pretend to be aggressive, but that the cotton spinning technology is not yet advanced, and the spun yarn cannot be spun. This kind of clothes may be very cheap and popular among the people in the future, but now it is indeed a low-key luxury.

"Meet His Royal Highness King Wu."

Wang Sengbian and Wang Lin stood up and saluted respectfully, not daring to show any arrogance on their faces.Not to mention what they think in their hearts, even if it is for the sake of their children and relatives, they can't put on a show like before.

"In the spring of next year, the king intends to send troops to Guangzhou, and will go to Nankang County in advance in the winter. You are also people who have experienced battles, are you willing to go south with the king to suppress the rebellion?"

Liu Yishou helped them up and asked.

"I'm waiting for the king of Wu to follow suit!"

Wang Sengbian and Wang Lin said excitedly, isn't that what they were waiting for!

"Well, that's good. The crimes on your body will be judged by the court's own law. This king cannot pardon you. But now that the court is employing people, you two are allowed to atone for your sins and lead troops to follow the king to the south to make peace. Rebel.

I will let you leave here today, and the king also asked the court to issue a notice that you will be recruiting former cronies in Jiankang in the near future, and wait for the court to recruit at any time. "

Liu Yishou patted the shoulders of the two and said.

"Order!"

The two clasped their hands together, sonorously and forcefully!

"Well, seeing that your spirits are still there, I feel relieved."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, turned around and was about to leave.

He saw that the two seemed to have something to say, so he asked with a smile: "The two generals seem to have something to ask, right?"

"Your Highness, we have committed serious crimes, and it is really surprising that we can be pardoned by the court, so I have this question."

Wang Sengbian asked hesitantly, and Wang Lin nodded, thinking the same way.

"Doing things for Xiao Yi is just to fight for power and profit. Small merits are not enough to exaggerate, and serious crimes will go down in history.

I followed the king to the south to suppress the rebellion, for the purpose of unifying the country, and in the future, he will also unify the world, end a century of war, and create a prosperous age that has not been seen in a thousand years.

It is to make great achievements, do great deeds, be famous in history, and be passed down forever!

Which of them is right and which is wrong, you have your own judgment in your heart, so why do you need me to say more?You don't need to promise anything to this king, just use your military exploits to prove yourself in the future. "

Liu Yishou waved his hand, turned and left the courtyard, leaving Wang Sengbian and Wang Lin in meditation for a long time.

Chapter 587

Yang Xiuzhi's wife is from the direct line of the Li family in Longxi.Before he made his fortune, the two families were already engaged, but almost all members of Yang Xiu's family died at the hands of Xing Gao, Yang Xiuzhi disappeared (in fact, he voted for Liu Yishou halfway), and the Longxi Li family wanted to renege on their debts, planning to take Mrs. Li married someone else again.

When Liu Yishou settled down in Shouyang and learned of this matter, he personally wrote a letter and ordered someone to send it to Feng Linghua, asking Feng Linghua to handle the matter.Under Feng Linghua's mediation, the Longxi Li family was afraid that Liu Yishou would be young and powerful, so he had to obediently send the woman to Shouyang to marry Yang Xiuzhi, holding his nose and accepting the marriage.

Yang Xiu's wife, Mrs. Li, was born noble and had a very high vision, so she was very dissatisfied with this marriage.On the one hand, she was ashamed of Yang Xiu's "notoriety" for her daily flattery, and on the other hand, she felt that her husband was too low-born and climbed too slowly. Before the child was born, the husband and wife often quarreled over trivial matters.

Yang Xiuzhi always said that Li's vision was short-sighted and stupid, but Li's ridiculed Yang Xiuzhi's ignorance, incompetence, lack of opinion, acting like a dog, and serving Liu Yishou as his own father.

This situation changed after the birth of Yang Xiu's eldest son, Yang Bijiang. In addition, Yang Xiuzhi had indeed become Liu Yishou's confidant, so it would not be an exaggeration to say that he has a bright future.So it seems that Li Shi finally accepted his fate, and the relationship with her husband eased greatly.

On this day, Mrs. Li went to the study with chicken soup to visit Yang Xiuzhi who was working inside, hoping to please her husband and repair the relationship between them.Of course, this is also the result of a letter from her natal family telling her not to be willful.

In the end, Mrs. Li discovered that Yang Xiuzhi was carving stones in the study instead of writing official documents!

Mrs. Li, who wanted her husband Jackie Chan, became angry in an instant, and walked forward lightly, only to see the four characters "Wu Wang Sanchuan" engraved on the stone, which had been carved, and Yang Xiuzhi was polishing it.

"What is Aaron doing?"

Li asked suspiciously.

"With your wisdom, it's hard for me to explain to you."

Yang Xiuzhi casually said one of Liu Yishou's catchphrases, which immediately enraged Mrs. Li!

"You've been here all day without doing your job, let's see how Liu Yishou climbed up the ladder!"

Li yelled indiscriminately.

"Bold, how dare you call King Wu by his name! Kneel down!"

Yang Xiuzhi stood up, furious, grabbed Li Shi's hair and pushed her to the ground.

"Our current glory and wealth are all given by the King of Wu, and you are so disrespectful! You want to die yourself, but I don't want to die! One more thing, I will kill you first and then go to the King of Wu to accept the crime!"

Yang Xiuzhi knocked Li Shi's head on the ground a few times, Li Shi was not easy to provoke, she broke free, grabbed the stone engraved with "Wu Wang Sanchuan" on the table, and went to Yang Xiuzhi. hit on the head.

The two wrestled until each other was exhausted.

……

"Today... is just to inspect Stone City, so you don't need to put on such makeup, do you?"

Beside the moat under the stone city, Liu Yishou asked curiously as he looked at Yang Xiuzhi, who had a bruised nose and a swollen face.These days, it is not common for husbands and wives to fight, and the status of women is low, with no human rights at all.Unless the natal family is powerful, it is difficult for a woman to resist her husband.

"My lord, he was beaten by Mrs. Li."

Hu Lvxian, who was guarding at the side, gloated and smiled.

"Yesterday, Mrs. Li was disrespectful to the lord and uttered wild words, but I was very angry... Sigh! It's better to reconcile and leave!"

Yang Xiu said with a sigh of embarrassment.

"This Mrs. Li still remembers the grudges of the past, and I guess she still blames me for threatening her family, so she had to be sent to Shouyang, where she will not be able to see her natal family all year round.

Don't be too harsh on a woman who leaves her hometown to get married.She said whatever she wanted, I have no regrets in what I do, why should I worry about a woman's gossip?You, think too much!When I go to your house for dinner, I will be a witness. If you and your husband admit to each other’s mistakes, this matter will be over. "

Liu Yishou laughed and patted Yang Xiuzhi's shoulder and said.

"The lord is magnanimous, a dragon among men, but it's a pity that the foolish woman will not be in awe if she can't be taught a lesson, alas!"

Li Shi has the kind of stupidity inherent in a big family, which really makes Yang Xiu, who thinks highly of himself, very crooked.Besides, not every man can coax a woman into being handsome like Liu Yishou.It is estimated that if Mrs. Li marries Liu Yishou, she will probably die as a dog.

Thinking of this, Yang Xiuzhi felt a little helpless to complain.You can tell what a woman is like by looking at Gao Ling, but when you see a handsome guy, you can't walk.

That's Gao Huan's first daughter!

This incident was just a small episode, and everyone quickly skipped it.

Today I said I came to Stone City to inspect the defenses around Jiankang, but in fact I came here for an autumn outing.After all, Liu Yishou was about to lead his troops south to Tunza in Nankang County, ready to attack Guangzhou.It's okay to relax a little bit now.

"Hey, my lord, there is a strange stone here, and it looks like there are words engraved on it!"

Yang Xiuzhi suddenly shouted, pointing to a stone on the ground not far away and said.This stone is very different from the cobblestones beside the moat of Stone City. It is like standing out from the crowd, and it is impossible not to be noticed.

"My lord, there are words engraved on it, please go down and have a look."

Wang Wei bowed his hands and walked over to pick up the stone.

"Wu Wang Sanchuan? What do you mean?"

Seeing the four characters engraved on the stone, Hu Luxian asked in bewilderment.

"The handwriting on this stone is so neat... Sure enough, is this the uncanny workmanship of nature?"

Liu Yishou glanced at Yang Xiu thoughtfully, then asked:

"Can anyone tell me what these four words mean?"

Liu Yishou looked at Yang Xiuzhi with deep meaning in his eyes.

"Master, Wu Zhe, Soochow can do it, so can the King of Wu, and the subordinates are more inclined to the King of Wu, that is, the lord.

King, rule also.The three rivers, the Yellow River, the Luoshui, and the Weishui are the three rivers, which are the land of Heluo.Jingshui, Weishui, and Luoshui are also the three rivers, which are the land in Guanzhong.

These four words mean that the lord will rule the north, this is God's will!In the future, if the Lord goes to the Northern Expedition, he will obey the will of God and the will of the people. How could it be unsuccessful? "

Yang Xiuzhi bowed deeply to Liu Yishou and said.

This horse can also pull, it is really flattering the horse to become a god, the skill is close to the Tao!

Wang Wei, Hu Luxian and others around Liu Yishou were amazed for a while.For someone like Yang Xiuzhi who flatters horses so profoundly and unfathomably, not to mention that there will be no one to come, at least there will be no one before.

It also seemed obvious how the stone came to be.

"Then thank you for your good words. Put this stone away and leave it in my study."

Liu Yishou patted Yang Xiuzhi's shoulder and said, without pointing out the trick.

This scene just passed, and no one in the room paid much attention to it.But shortly thereafter, the prophecy that "Wu Wang entered Sanchuan" spread like wildfire, spread all over the country, and continued to ferment.

So much so that it has become a household name in the north.

……

People's attachment to power is far beyond imagination.Liu Yishou originally thought that the prefects and county magistrates who came to Jiankang to report on their duties should arrive before the winter solstice.

But apart from officials from Shu, local officials from other places, including some areas north of Guangzhou, quickly came to Jiankang to report on their duties and participated in the Beijing inspection.Its speed is so fast, based on the estimated distance, it should be non-stop rushing immediately after receiving the imperial court's decree, without any delay.

This can't help but make Liu Yishou take a high view of the "Huairou Policy". After all, people with stiff necks are a minority, and people who are hypocritical and shy away from the world are also a minority after all. In traditional Chinese moral concepts, the concept of "benefiting the world while being successful" is very common.Everyone still likes to come out and do business.

People may have doubts about whether they should help others, but they have no doubts about whether they should develop themselves.

In view of this, Liu Yishou had no choice but to advance the date of the Beijing inspection, and personally acted as the chief officer of the assessment.

However, the assessment was very boring. After all, Liu Yishou didn't know most of the local officials, and couldn't even pronounce their names.He has been dozing off during the Beijing inspection and assessment, and Chen Yuankang is in charge of the overall situation.

On this day, among the prefects and county magistrates who came to participate in the Beijing inspection, a figure familiar to Liu Yishou appeared.

Xuyi prefect Huajiao!

Liu Yishou felt relieved in an instant, waved his hand, and asked Chen Yuankang to lead the others out of the lobby of the Shangshu Mansion, leaving Hua Jiao who didn't know what he had done wrong, trembling in the autumn wind, not even looking at it. Dare to see Liu Yishou sitting upright in the lobby with a smile on his face.

"Teacher Hua...Teacher Hua, I miss you so much!"

Liu Yishou stepped forward, laughed and helped Hua Jiao, who was bending over to salute, to his feet.

"When I got the government order from the King of Wu, I didn't dare to slack off for a moment... I am sincere and fearful. Now I come to Jiankang to participate in the Beijing inspection, and everything is obeyed by the King of Wu."

Hua Jiao said cautiously.

He thinks that there will be no problems in Jingcha. Over the years, he has reclaimed wasteland in Xuyi, built water conservancy, and managed Xuyi, which is a military station, in an orderly manner.

I don't know how many times stronger than his predecessor Yu Hong, and he thinks he can stand the test of Liu Yishou.

"However, you, the prefect, have already served the end."

Liu Yishou restrained his smile and said seriously.

ha?

Hua Jiao was taken aback for a moment, not understanding what the problem was.He is very popular in Xuyi. He has done many practical things in recent years and has made outstanding achievements.Why did Liu Yishou say that?

Hua Jiao was a little confused.

"Don't be nervous, come here, come and sit, the king wants to tell you in detail."

Liu Yishou dragged Hua Jiao to the side of the main seat in the lobby, and the two sat opposite each other.

"The newly-built Farmland and Water Conservancy Department under the Shangshu Mansion still lacks a chief officer. You have made great achievements in farming in Xuyi. I plan to let you serve as the secretary of this department. The implementation situation. You don’t have to go back to Xuyi to be the prefect, and prepare to settle down in Jiankang.”

Liu Yishou said appreciatively, Yuhong caused chaos in Xuyi, and those who can manage it well and achieve political achievements are obviously not just talents from a county, they must be transferred to the central government to become officials.

Hua Jiao was shocked, he didn't expect that there would be pie in the sky, and he was suddenly promoted from the prefect to the central Si Cao.These two positions can be said to be very different. If Si Cao does a good job, it will only take a few years to be a minister if everything goes well.

For example, Zhu Yi at the beginning, after arriving at the center, as long as the emperor trusts him, he can quickly become powerful.

Hua Jiao, who is a veteran in the officialdom, understands that the position of prefect is actually a weak position with the most troubles and the least power. The central government can send anyone at will to overwhelm the local prefect.

"The subordinates are sincere and fearful, but they just don't know how to implement the "Farmland Water Conservancy Law"?"

Hua Jiao asked suspiciously.

"First, water should be diverted to the wasteland in an orderly manner, water conservancy should be built, and the wasteland should be turned into fertile land.

Second, the existing water conservancy projects must be well protected to prevent ignorant villagers from blindly enclosing the lake to reclaim fields and destroying the dams of the lake.

The third one is to get the law for irrigation, and establish rules, when and how much water can be diverted, and who can divert water for irrigation, and you can’t just come here randomly.

Fourth, whoever benefits will have to contribute money and efforts, and those who do not contribute will not be able to sit back and enjoy the benefits.

People should be encouraged to participate.Only those who contribute money and effort can use water conservancy projects.

This law is not only to open up wasteland, but also to protect the existing farmland and water conservancy, and not to blindly reclaim the land.Not long ago, the king went to Wuling County for disaster relief. Although this flood is a natural disaster, it is also a man-made disaster. It is related to the local people's random reclaiming of wasteland and random water diversion!

Irrigation must be done according to the law, and it will not work if there are no rules.Shaopi's "Hubei Order" is worth referring to.
