Chapter 592: Uncle Li Governs Politics

Yuanzhou, the governing place is Linjing.

This is the ancient land of China, a famous city in Longshang, and a hometown of culture.Although it has entered spring, the climate is still cold, but not as severe as winter.

In the state government office, apart from the guards of various squads, there are dozens of soldiers with bright and beautiful armor on duty as guards.These people are all the family generals who followed the assassin Li Ye from Tokyo to serve as guards. They are equipped with excellent weapons and equipment, and they are all specially approved by the emperor.

With the secluded border of Yuanzhou, where the Han and Rong are mixed, safety is difficult to protect, and the armored soldiers are guarding, so as to put the Queen Mother at ease.Of course, Shi Kuangyi has been in charge of Jingyuan for many years, and Li Ye has taken office, so his safety can be guaranteed.After Shi Kuangyi was transferred to Beijing, he had Xiangxun again to take care of the frontier defense, and now he is Prince Jing of Bohai County, who is based in Longzhou and takes care of Jingyuan.

In Houya Nei, there is a small martial arts training ground. At this time, two burly and aggressive men are intertwined in it, fists and feet facing each other, and they are fighting hard.

On the side, Li Ye was leaning on the mat, basking in the spring sun, casually admiring the competition. It seemed that the roast mutton on the small table attracted him even more.Holding a shiny dagger in his hand, he cut the roasted brown meat and stuffed it into his mouth piece by piece.

With a mouth full of greasy food, he said to the steward who was waiting beside him, "Too much salt is put in today!"

"The little one will inform the cook later, and let him be careful!"

"Hmph! Do you know how expensive salt is in this place?" Li Yedi glanced at the steward, his gaze was cold and sharp.

"Small ones must be severely punished!" Hearing this, the steward said immediately.

"That's all!" Li Ye waved his greasy hands.

She tilted her head and gestured to a beautiful concubine who was sitting next to her. The beauty immediately picked up a handkerchief, wiped his mouth, poured warm wine, and brought it to her mouth.

He took a swig, took another sip, rinsed his mouth, and spit it into the spittoon. Li Ye showed a happy expression.Glancing at the Yuanzhou magistrate standing respectfully like a servant, he said, "Why did you stop, keep talking!"

The judge was holding a volume of pages in his hand, but he was reporting the government affairs of Yuanzhou to Li Ye. It was just that this uncle Guo couldn't concentrate and liked to be distracted, so he would interrupt him at any time.

"My lord, spring plowing is approaching, and we have sent five Yameni prefectural officials to go down to the counties, towns, and towns to check the fields, grains, and cattle for farming! According to the reports from the counties, this year, if more land is cultivated, the number of acres in the prefecture will be reduced." You can add another five hundred hectares!" The judge reported.

Hearing the news, Li Ye clicked his tongue, and immediately said: "What is the use of so many acres here? It's not safe, and it's a waste of water and grass. Just enough food! Issue a decree to prohibit the people in the state from reclaiming wasteland." Land. If you have that energy, use it to breed cattle, sheep, horses, and camels, and trade them out, it will be better than holding on to that little land, and you will gain more!"

"Your Majesty, wouldn't it be against the policy of the imperial court to prohibit the people from reclaiming land? Besides, the southwestern border states now need military settlements, so how can we go against the grain?" The judge hesitated for a moment and remonstrated.

Li Ye squinted at him and said, "I know better than you the policy of the imperial court. What the imperial court wants is to develop farming, restore people's livelihood, and accumulate grain. As for the military settlement, it has nothing to do with me. It is Wang Jing and Xiang Xun. Listen to me, you will draft official documents later, pass them on, and let the officials publicize them properly. If there are any officials who declare negligence, they will be severely punished; if there are people who violate the government orders, they will be severely punished!"

Seeing that Li Ye was determined, the judge had no choice but to answer.

"My lord—"

As soon as the voice came up, Li Ye interrupted him with a burst of "yes", with an excited expression on his face.Following his gaze, it was the two contestants in the martial arts training ground, who had decided the winner.And yes, the one who was at a disadvantage suddenly counterattacked and knocked down his opponent.

"Okay! Very good!" Li Ye ordered excitedly: "Reward!"

"Thank you, Shijun!" The victorious man bowed and thanked him.Although he won, his nose was still bruised and his face was swollen, he was sweating profusely, and his skin exposed to the air trembled, which was obviously painful.

After waving his hands, Li Ye said again: "Substitute!"

Those who fell down were quickly carried down to treat their injuries, and two warriors stood beside them, saluted Li Ye, and immediately started fighting, punching to the flesh, fighting with all their strength, to entertain the nobles.

Li Ye looked away and looked at the judge: "What do you want to say? Continue!"

"Yes!" The judge bowed slightly, keeping his mind calm, and said, "The five hundred shi of military rations supplied to Longzhou this month have already been shipped out of the warehouse and loaded into vehicles, and the labor has been collected. We only need to be ordered to send them to In Longzhou, the envoy still needs to issue a Jun decree!"

"Bring it!" Li Ye said immediately.

The judge stepped forward, but Li Ye's hands were all greasy, he was a little embarrassed, and couldn't take it.Li Ye didn't seem to care, and ordered: "You sign for me, and then put the seal on it!"

After completing this procedure, Li Ye took a few glances, saw that there was no problem, and ordered: "Notify the state army, let them send someone to escort them!"

"Yes!"

"Continue!" Li Ye said again, but he lowered his head and picked up the leg of lamb to eat.

"Longzhou sent an official document, saying that the special envoy of the imperial court, Zhao Kuangyin, the Marquis of Yu in front of the palace, was ordered by the emperor to patrol the border. He will come to Yuanzhou to restore the horse administration and inspect the water and soil. Let the state government prepare for the reception!" the judge reported. road.

"See it!" Li Ye got excited and said, "The imperial court wants to restore the horse administration, which shows that I have the foresight to advocate animal husbandry!"

"Your Majesty is wise!" the judge complimented immediately.

Li Ye was also happy, smiled, frowned slightly, and said, "However, what is Zhao Kuangyin? He deserves me to welcome him? Don't care about him!"

Seeing that Li Ye was "sick" again and wanted to put on the noble airs of his royal relatives, the judge could only humbly smile and persuade him: "Master, General Zhao is a general of the imperial army after all, and this time he has the mission of the Son of Heaven. Welcome, it should be."

Hearing the remonstrance, Li Ye thought about it for a while, and said with a bit of reluctance on his face, "When he comes, you can greet him for me, that's fine!"

"Yes!" With a hint of bitterness, the judge knew that this was already a concession from Uncle Li Guo.

"By the way, what was the status of the previous household registration check?" Li Ye took the initiative to ask, which was a little rare.

The judge should be a cadre, and he knew it well, and immediately reported: "According to the number reported so far, there should be about [-] households in the jurisdiction of the state, which is not far away. Compared with the envoy who came out, it has increased by nearly one year." Success, this is all the merits of the emperor governing the government and appeasing the people!"

Li Ye's expression was not very happy: "Why are there still so few people!"

"Yuanzhou is a frontier after all, and there is always the fear of war!" said the judge.

Li Ye ignored him, put down and ate a few mouthfuls of lamb leg, as if he was full and lost his appetite.While wiping his hands and thinking about it, he couldn't help murmuring: "It's a pity that the elite soldiers were selected away by Xiang Xun, and the army is not good at moving. Otherwise, go and capture some miscellaneous captives, which will not only increase the population, but also increase the population." Wouldn't it be nice to raise a horse for me!"

Hearing his words, the judge's expression changed immediately.Just as it said, fortunately the military power was taken over by the court, otherwise, with no one suppressing it, the judge believed that Uncle Li Guo would definitely be able to do it.

A burst of soft laughter came, interrupting the judge's thoughts.Li Guojiu was right in front of him, flirting with his concubine, and put his hand generously on the plump place.

While kneading, he still tilted his head and asked, "You still have something to do? If you have nothing to do, just leave!"

Of course the judge also wanted to retreat quickly, but he was still patient and reported the last one: "The soldiers at Kaiyuan checkpoint captured several private salt dealers and handed them over to the government for escort to Linjing!"

Frowning, Li Ye's expression became more serious, and he said coldly: "These people who are not afraid of death really emerge in endlessly! I will personally interrogate them when they are in the back! You step back!"

"Resignation!" The judge couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief, bowed, and retreated quickly.

Uncle Li Guo, on the other hand, continued to watch martial arts competitions, drink, play with beauties, having fun, feeling uncomfortable.In the martial arts arena, two more people were changed.

However, judging from his performance, he is not entirely a foolish official who indulges in pleasure. At least, under his governance, Yuanzhou has not been in chaos, and the people are in peace, which has exceeded Liu Chengyou's expectations for him.
