Chapter 265 Is there a king's land under the whole world?
The font of the translation is just like the person's, very delicate and feminine, but the content carried by the text is full of conspiracy and filth.It is full of names of people, and they are divided into three categories. One is people who can be killed; the other is people who can be threatened; the third is people who can be deceived!

There were several people Yuan Yingtai knew, but he couldn't be considered acquainted. He had heard of them at Jieguan Pavilion not long ago. They were all local officials at all levels in Guangdong, including Hu Guifang, the left-wing ambassador, who was listed among the deceitful people.

What does it mean? Li Zhi can figure it out without explaining. They are all people involved in the rebellion.Huang Jixian, the general envoy, was from Guangzhou. Because of his participation in the rebellion, his family was exiled to the factory and worked hard for ten years.

At the beginning, the emperor said he didn't want to get involved too much, which sounded like a grace, but now it seems that his intentions are far-fetched and his methods are a bit dirty.This is to catch some officials' little pigtails and hold back until they are needed, and only then come up with relevant confessions and evidence for blackmail. What they want is not money but attitude.

There is nothing wrong with agreeing or cooperating with the emperor's proposition. If you dare to say no, Jin Yiwei Tiqi and Dongchang Fanzi will arrive immediately.Regardless of whether the evidence is irrefutable or not, no one can say that it is wrong if they are arrested and tried.It is estimated that no one in the civil and military circles of the entire dynasty would be willing to suffer such torture, so they would simply agree to the issue as long as it was not life-threatening.

The question is, after reading these lists, can I just casually do it?The emperor used this method to coerce hundreds of officials, which seemed not aboveboard enough, and he was gradually drifting away from the emperor in his mind.

"Extraordinary things are done in extraordinary times! Come on, you and I both know what His Majesty is going to do, and we also understand how long the routine operation will take. Apart from anything else, I have been here for more than two years, and I dare not slack off every day, but the results are However, [-]% of the time is spent arguing with local officials.

If His Majesty could wait, he would not have made such a move; if the Ming Dynasty could wait, there would be no need for a strong man to abandon Liaodong.Your Majesty once told me: Great good is like evil, and great evil is like good.What is evil and what is good is not the ancient theory, but the result of the present.As long as the government is clear and the country is prosperous and the people are strong, it doesn't matter if you become a villain.

Still taking me as an example, several counties near Zhaoqing and Wuzhou are already promoting His Majesty’s New Deal, and although it is only superficial, it has achieved remarkable results.Local farmers clear up land on the hillside to plant wheat and sweet potatoes. After scattering the seeds, we regularly weed several times. Regardless of drought or flood, they can always harvest more than a stone or two.

With this food, they can free up their family's strong labor force to carefully tend the rice fields, and can harvest a few more bushels and a half more stones in a season.Don't underestimate this small amount of food, it is enough for them.If this happens to every household, you can’t imagine what the situation would be like if millions of households were like this. "

Seeing Yuan Yingtai's reaction, Li Zhi nodded.To be honest, he didn't quite understand some of the emperor's actions, but thinking about it afterwards, there seemed to be no other way.Instead of waiting for the imperial court to be corrupted, it is better to give it a try.As for posthumous fame, let future generations comment.

"...I wonder who should be the best person to start with?" Fortunately, Yuan Yingtai was not a stickler for rules. He lowered his head and thought for a moment before making a choice, ready to implement the emperor's plan.

"Hey, Your Majesty is not so ruthless. How can you and I take part in such matters? It is more appropriate for Li Dusi to handle it. However, the subsequent trivial matters are also difficult. Here is no better than in the north. The clan forces are intertwined. Don't rush now. Let's go down below. It doesn’t hurt to take a closer look and delay it for three to five months.”

After hearing this and seeing Yuan Yingtai's expression of never coming back, Li Zhi couldn't help but smile.It seems that I don't know what Li Rumei is here for, so I will explain it to the emperor for the time being.

"After my official has arranged everything in the house, I will go on inspection within three to five days. I wonder if I should go and walk around at Hu Fantai. Even if I can't help, it shouldn't be difficult to just sit back and watch, right?"

Yuan Yingtai was convinced of this suggestion. He did the same thing when he first went to Liaodong Town to take up his post. It took him around half a year to roughly understand the local customs.Guangdong is farther away, the traffic is more congested, and the people's customs are definitely more different. If we don't understand it clearly, drastic measures will cause trouble.

In addition, he also had an idea to talk to Hu Guifang.Everyone has been an official for a while, and maybe they can find common friends, so there is no need to become incompatible.If you can't talk to Li Zhi, you may not be able to talk to yourself. There's no loss in trying.

"It's too late. If you don't go with me, we might still be able to talk. It won't help to visit again at this time." But Li Zhi didn't agree, and the reason was simple.The officials who came out of the city to greet him saw that the newly arrived envoy was very familiar with the governor, so they went directly to the capital where the governor was staying without going to the mansion.

It is no longer news in Guangdong official circles that the chief envoy of Guangdong and the governors of Guangdong and Guangdong refused to deal with each other and repeatedly impeached each other. The allies of the governor were naturally the opponents of the chief envoy.

"Then Li Dusi..." Only then did Yuan Yingtai understand the extent of the secret fight between Hu Guifang and Li Zhi. It was much more serious than Suzaku's understatement.

"I will explain it to him. Now go and freshen up. Suzaku has booked a good restaurant in the city. Let's go and taste the local specialties before returning to the Chief Envoy's Office."

Li Zhi obviously did not intend to explain the work to Li Rumei in front of others. Yuan Yingtai also understood the rules of officialdom and immediately got up and left the back hall, bathing and changing clothes under the guidance of his entourage.

"Yuan Fantai, the governor has just made an explanation to his subordinates. The land of the guard station involves the Ministry of War. For the time being, it will not be moved. It will still focus on private land. Fantai only orders and urges the officials of various states and counties to implement it.

Obviously someone is pushing the envelope, so the governor and the feudal lord will deal with it.If someone secretly uses means to stop them, it will be up to me to deal with them. When it is time to catch a few chickens and kill them, when there is blood, I have to be more ruthless. "

When Yuan Yingtai finished washing and changing clothes and returned to the back hall, Li Zhi had already finished explaining. It was unclear what he said, but Li Rumei assumed the posture of a military general as soon as he came up, and his hand was still on the handle of the knife when he spoke.

"...Du Si has just arrived and is not familiar with the local guard station. Can he unify the orders?"

Yuan Yingtai disagreed with this suggestion.The officialdom is full of intrigues and power struggles, and the exclusion and strife in the military are not weak at all.It’s not that whoever has the most authority really has the final say. There are many examples of local forces clinging to groups to evade their superiors.

"Don't worry. Li Dusi is not only a warrior who has been on the battlefield, but has also been trained in the Imperial Guard for many years. He understands the stakes and will not act rashly without being [-]% sure. The guard here is definitely unreliable, but they can only obey orders, otherwise The Jinyiwei in Guangzhou City are about to disown their relatives.

His Majesty's oral instructions to Li Dusi specifically mentioned this matter. Anyone among the guards and generals who dares to obstruct the implementation of the New Deal will be suspected of colluding with the rebels. Governor Yuan's navy stationed in Boliao Island will immediately land ashore to capture the rebels. . "

"... In this case, I can let go!" At this point, Yuan Yingtai understood the emperor's full intention. He and Li Rumei were just part of the plan, that is, the main force in the charge on the surface, to forcibly promote the New Deal. Caused chaos in Guangdong official circles.

After all the officials showed their true attitude, it was time for the Jin Yiwei and the navy to use force.This kind of cooperation between civil and military officials can not only implement the New Deal throughout the province, but also sort out all the officials and generals in Guangdong Province, and remove those who should be removed, transfer those who should be transferred, and demote those who should be demoted. It is really killing two birds with one stone.

Now that things have come to this, don’t think about the impact. Just use as much energy as you can.As long as there is no deliberate trouble, any trouble caused will be protected by the emperor.As for whether the emperor can bear it or not, that is another question, and it should not be left to the people working below to speculate.
