"Your Excellency is mighty! The Qin army is mighty"

"Your Excellency is mighty! The Qin army is mighty"

The people were excited and cheered, and everyone's eyes were focused on Xiao Yuan.

The shouts spread all over the streets and alleys, and the liveliness of the scene had never appeared in Qinzhou in the past.

The sergeants on both sides raised the halberds in their hands as railings, trying to stop the crowded people in front of them, and they were miserable.

On the second floor on both sides of the street, flower petals fell from the sky.

I don't know how many young girls are in the spring, their eyes are burning.

In ancient times, how could there be a beauty who didn't love heroes, not to mention the Taishou who retreated from foreign enemies and kept one side safe, was still so young and handsome.

Along the way, the enthusiasm of the people everywhere has exceeded their imagination, which also shows from the side that Xiao Yuan, the lord of Qinzhou, is the heart of the people.

The bustle continued, spreading throughout the city.

Fortunately, under the advance preparations of the Wuwei Mansion, there were no accidents.

When Xiao Yuan finally returned to the Taishou Mansion, the people in the mansion had been waiting for a long time.

"Your Excellency is back!" Seeing Xiao Yuan, Chu Ning couldn't help but show surprise on her face, for her, Xiao Yuan was like a reborn parent, not only saved her, but also gave her the identity of a housekeeper, never disliked, since the expedition, she has often been worried about Xiao Yuan, and now seeing his triumph, joy, needless to say.

When she was happy, she hurriedly put her hand on her waist and gave a salute, as did the other maidservants.

"You don't have to be polite." Xiao Yuan waved his hand with a smile, then turned over and dismounted, and asked casually as he walked towards the mansion, "Xiao Ning, is the mansion okay?" ”

The officials followed, rushing in.

The soldiers of the Qin army temporarily returned to the Qinzhou camp.

Chu Ning followed behind Xiao Yuan and returned softly: "Everything is fine, the slave will go down to prepare the adult's favorite dishes, and wash the dust for the adult." ”

"Huh? No, I have some business to attend to, so you can go ahead and get your business done. ”

"Huh? Your Excellency, you've just returned from a journey......"

"It doesn't matter." Xiao Yuan glanced at her with a smile, "Go ahead." ”

"No." Chu Ning was helpless, worried, although she wanted to say something, but she didn't dare.

Then, Xiao Yuan began to discuss with a group of officials in the hall of the Taishou Mansion.

He was in the main seat, and the officials below him were flanked by the two sides.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Xiao Yuan took the lead in speaking: "In this battle, our army broke through Xirong and won a comprehensive victory in the war, which has an important relationship with the transportation of grain, grass and ordnance in the rear. ”

"Oh, my lord, this is a matter within the scope of my subordinates, and my lord said this, it really tormented me." Jiang Yi hurriedly said.

"Yes, my lord, if you didn't reorganize the army and lead my Qin army to meet the enemy, how could I win this battle, and I would dare to take credit." Another official said.

"Okay, okay, if you have merit, you will be rewarded, and if you have a fault, you will be punished, in this battle, whether you have done anything, whether you have done your duty, this official has everything in mind here."

Hearing this, Jiang Yi couldn't help but be secretly happy in her heart.

Xiao Yuan continued: "It's just that this war was fought, so that the official saw the suffering of the people in Qindi, think about it, the people have already paid taxes and can't eat, but they would rather starve themselves to support this war, although I am united in the army and people of Qindi, but from this point of view, who is responsible for the difficulties of the people's lives, in this official, but also in you!" ”

As he spoke, he looked at Liu Yuzhi again and asked, "Lord Liu, can the materials donated by the people be recorded in all counties and regions this time?" ”

"Lord Hui, there are detailed records, and after being checked by the lower officials, the official documents have been deposited in the state capital." Liu Yuzhi returned.

"En......" Xiao Yuan nodded, and was just about to continue speaking, Liu Yuzhi had already said again: "My lord, although the people's donation of materials this time is voluntary, but in the opinion of the following officials, the government still needs to give back to the people for this matter." ”

"What do you think?" Xiao Yuan asked directly.

Liu Yuzhi pondered for a moment: "Those who are recorded in the register will be relatively exempt from taxes." ”

"What do you think?" Xiao Yuan glanced at the others again.

"This ...... I'm afraid it's not right. An official said.

Jiang Yi said: "The lower officials also think it is inappropriate, in the previous war, the people donated, it is reasonable, not to mention that there are many people, just donate one bucket or two buckets of rice, if the government is so tax-exempt, wouldn't it be too cheap for those people." ”

"This is not to cheap the people, but to unite the people's hearts and let the people know that our government is worthy of their trust and support, and it is by no means comparable to before!" Liu Yuzhi argued.

Then, he faced Xiao Yuan again, arched his hand and said: "My lord, the people, is the fundamental, whether it is soldiers, horses, money, food, or taxes, gold and silver, these have to be transported from the people, without the support of the people, everything is difficult, and although this matter is small, it is where the people's hearts are united." ”

"An army, if it has the support of the whole people, its combat power is unimaginable."

After listening to what he said, Xiao Yuan immediately said: "There is no need to discuss this matter anymore, according to what Lord Liu said." ”

"Obey," all the officials replied in unison.

Xiao Yuan said again: "In addition, I heard that Lord Liu once met with the four major businessmen in Qinzhou and punished one of the shopkeepers surnamed Qian?" ”

"Yes, sir."

"Yes." Xiao Yuan nodded, and did not talk much about this matter, but changed the conversation and said: "As for the other three merchants, they can return the money and grain together, and the state capital is not short of this money now, so as not to be realized." ”

Liu Yuzhi was a solid faction that valued agriculture and suppressed business, but in the context of the times at that time, it should indeed be so.

The current Qindi, after Xiao Yuan's big change of blood, there is no problem with the official system, the division of labor among officials at all levels is clear, and there is no problem with public security and some other things.

The rest is people's livelihood and the economy.

In terms of people's livelihood, the reclamation of wasteland has been effective, and when the harvest is harvested in the autumn of next year, as long as there are no natural disasters, the people's harvest will surely increase several times.

As for the economy, Xiao Yuan is already ready to monopolize the Qindi market, crack down on illegal salt, and control salt and iron.

The next deliberations are all related to some internal affairs issues, and after officials at all levels have expressed their opinions, Xiao Yuan chose the best and made a decision, and he was also a little tired.

He looked around and said:

"I hope that our prefectural ordinance is a parent official who can think about the people and improve the lives of the people. And this requires the joint efforts of the officials from all over the Qin region......"

"We will follow the teachings of our lords......" said everyone in unison.

"Alright, if there is nothing else to do, you should all return to the jurisdiction as soon as possible." Xiao Yuan waved his hand again.

"Resignation"

After everyone left, he immediately ordered the army to prepare for a celebration banquet tomorrow.
