To be honest, putting aside his character and discipline, Guo Yuanzhen can be regarded as a person with a lot of advantages, brave and strategic, and able to be calm and improvised.

In terms of pure talent, Li Tong is now rarely able to do so, Liu Youqiu is much worse, his experience is still shallow, and his speech and deeds are far less disciplined than Guo Yuanzhen. It is natural to betray the old man, and the sycophants are all unique, and even Li Tong has an eye-opening feeling.

The eunuchs live far away from the countryside, have no characters, and can run rampant without being suppressed by the nostalgia, which shows that their talents are not limited to making money. A guy like Wu Youyi also has a lot of means of gathering, but when he encounters a real challenge, he can only leave in disgrace.

Although this relationship still seems to be unreliable at the moment, after all, it has just begun, and each other is smart people, each takes what he needs, and it will definitely continue to heat up after it is maintained.

As for Guo Yuanzhen, seeing that the young king initially accepted him, he was naturally quite excited in his heart. Not only is the life saved now, but the future can also be tossed. He is not a talented follower who can abide by the rules, and seeing that the young king is wise and resourceful, he is also full of enthusiasm for this career.

The maintenance of the relationship is a trickle of water, and it is too much to do in a short period of time.

After ending this conversation, Li Tong led Guo Yuanzhen to Shi Sizhen's room where he was recuperating and motioned for him to come in and apologize.

Guo Yuanzhen listened to the lecture at this time, and without the arrogant attitude he had before, he knelt down and hugged his fists in front of him: "County Lieutenant Shi, this time Guo Meng Lang offended you and harmed public affairs. Jun but there is a lot of anger, Guo is the leader, and will definitely make up for it, hoping that you can be relieved. In the future, the two will be in the house, do not misunderstand the king's religion for personal grievances. ”

Shi Sizhen naturally didn't have a good impression of Guo Yuanzhen, this guy not only attacked him in action but also in words, and after hearing this, he showed a look of surprise, ignored Guo Yuanzhen first, raised his eyes and looked at the king and asked, "The king wants to put this, this ...... Income Fuchu? ”

Li Tong nodded after hearing this, and raised his hand and said with a smile: "He is stupid and new to the mansion, but he angered the old man first, you don't have to take this as a concern, first settle the old grudges, and then talk about the door." I'm just here watching, not just empty words. ”

Having said that, how could Shi Sizhen not care. He knew that the king had many schemes, and naturally he also knew that only by attracting the power of the masses could he succeed, and he did not dare to obstruct the king's employment, and of course he would not give Guo Yuanzhen any good face, but just said in a muffled voice: "You offended me, it's just a trivial matter, in the future, you will be flattered by the king's teaching, if you still act arbitrarily and spoil the king's plan, you will have the trouble of adding to your own blade." ”

"You must remember Shi Jun's good words and admonitions."

Guo Yuanzhen lowered his head and said.

"You live in Lingnan, and if you have affairs to go north to Guanzhong in the future, you must first report and discuss with the county lieutenant Shi before you move. If County Lieutenant Shi reports that you made a mistake, I will definitely not indulge in it, understand? ”

People have different temperaments, and with the growth of their careers, of course, there will be more and more people under Li Tong's command, and it is difficult to ask them one by one if they have any friction and personal grievances. Tiannan and Haibei came together, naturally in order to be able to assist the king to ascend to the throne, as long as they did not interfere with this big goal, the rest would be handled by themselves.

Of course, Li Tong will not completely ignore the feelings of the old man, and give Shi Sizhen a nominal power to control Guo Yuanzhen, hoping to resolve the grievances a little. If you really want to see this guy, it's not pleasing to the eye, you put on little shoes for him, and I'll clean him up.

Guo Yuanzhen is not an ignorant person, he will not stare at the old man for the first time in the mansion and engage in a battle for rank, and after hearing the words, he hugged his fist to Shi Sizhen and said: "In the future, I will rely on the county lieutenant Shi to take care of the axe and be taught by the king." ”

Shi Sizhen's face softened a little after hearing this, but she just nodded and didn't say anything more.

After a pause, Li Tong talked about helping Shi Sizhen resolve this dereliction of duty. Guo Yuanzhen sold his old friends neatly, and Li Tong naturally had no scruples, and was happy to use those wealthy families who were forbidden to keep slaves and maids to Shi Sizhen's political achievements.

After Shi Sizhen heard this, she was also quite moved, and as an official, she naturally hoped to have some authority. The king will not be in Xijing for a long time to escort him, if this matter is handled properly, it will not only make up for his previous dereliction of duty, but also make him more authoritative in the county governance.

The biggest obstacle to the so-called herdsmen's administration is naturally those rural gentry, as long as these people are cleaned up, their authority will naturally be established.

Guo Yuanzhen also simply listed some of the families in Shiping County who were forbidden to keep slaves, and had a heated discussion with Shi Sizhen about which one to re-elect. With the discussion of the matter, the previous dispute can be ignored.

"Guanzhong Township has its own strong situation, and it may be intertwined with the county, and if this matter wants to go smoothly, it cannot rely on the manpower of the yamen alone. Yuan Zhen first led his subordinates to travel around the countryside, first shook the township, and then followed up by the officials, which can have twice the result with half the effort. ”

In this era, there is no official relationship, and it is almost impossible to sit in the countryside, and if you only use the power of the government, you will inevitably be tipped off by others, which will greatly reduce the effect of the action.

Therefore, Li Tong planned to let Guo Yuanzhen and others run amok first, and with such an excuse, Shi Sizhen could mobilize the manpower of the government without causing suspicion.

At the same time, there is also an advantage, that is, Guo Yuanzhen and his party are so swaggering, and then patting their butts and returning to Sichuan, which can also attract some attention to a certain extent, so that the situation of the soldiers of the old clothing society is more calm.

Speaking of his old profession, Guo Yuanzhen came to his senses, and many ideas suddenly came out of his mind to enrich the king's plan from the details.

The atmosphere of the discussion was very warm, Li Tong forgot that he was still warning Guo Yuanzhen not to continue to be a traitor, and Guo Yuanzhen didn't remember that he had just stated that he would definitely change his past mistakes, but he just said that he was a fart who was not embarrassed or embarrassed, which shows that he is a person who is obedient.

"Since you want to do it, you can't focus on Shiping County, that would be too weird."

Li Tong thought for a while and then said: "Later, I will organize a few illegal villagers and take the opportunity to clean them up together. Shi Wei, you can recuperate with peace of mind, Guo Wei will take advantage of the past few days to wander the countryside first and recognize the path. ”

After Guo Yuanzhen heard this, he patted his chest and promised: "I obey all the members, and they are all calmly vertical and horizontal between the poor mountains and dangerous mountains in Shuzhong, not to mention the open realm of the four fields in Guanzhong. The king will pay me the matter, although rest assured, it must be done neatly and neatly, leaving no trace! ”

"That's for the best."

Seeing Guo Yuanzhen so actively expressing his stance and striving for performance, Li Tong also nodded with satisfaction.

He planned to include some of the Dou family's assets in the suburbs of Beijing as targets this time, and these properties were either under aliases or hidden in the middle of nowhere, killing two birds with one stone.

If Guo Yuanzhen still has a ghost idea, likes the new and hates the old in the future, and thinks that the fourth is a good master, then today's matter is enough for this guy to drink a big pot. In the future, after the chaos is rectified, and then the Lishan martial arts will be performed, and the Dou family will be in the middle, it will not be as simple as taking him to Liwei.

Guo Yuanzhen continued to discuss with Shi Sizhen here, Li Tong went out first, saw the eldest brother wandering outside the corridor, his heart moved, signaled to merge into the middle hall, and only after they sat down did he say: "Brothers are long, there should be something to tie up." The second brother is enthusiastic and arrogant, and there is no shortage of party members. Brother, you are often withdrawn, which makes people worry. ”

Li Guangshun smiled bitterly after hearing this, his personality was originally quiet and quiet, and he had been cold-eyed by his mother for a long time because of the knot between his family, so he became more and more introverted and unconfident. Now that the family business is improving, the second and third brothers are busy, but he doesn't know what to do, and he can't help but be even more depressed.

Li Tong looked at the eldest brother and asked, "Would the elder brother be willing to go to Shuzhong as an official?" ”

"San Lang, you want to be in Shuzhong...... Alas, I have nothing to do, as long as I can help you, don't be idle in the court, anywhere. It's just that there are some obstacles in this matter, right? ”

Li Guangshun nodded hurriedly after hearing this, and said with some uncertainty.

The mess of affairs in Shuzhong, although it has not yet been rolled out, but there will definitely be a lot of personnel relations in the future, no matter how capable the subordinates are, but at the moment they are all humble, and their status and prestige cannot be reached, and the effect will always be much worse.

But his family is naturally different, because of the presence of the prince, the deterrent and appeal of the face are enough, and there is no need to worry about specific affairs, as long as he sits there, he can provide a great main force for things.

This matter is not easy to dredge, Li Tong naturally understands. At present, although their Li Tang clan relatives also have assassination history in other states, they are not as sensitive as their brothers after all, and in the closed realm of Shuzhong, it is easy for some dangerous things to happen.

Li Tong only had such an idea occasionally, and he knew that it was difficult, but it was not impossible. If it can be successfully operated, it is worth giving it a try in terms of prospects.

But whether it can be done or not, this matter must always return to the operation of God, and it can only be remembered in mind for now. After communicating with the eldest brother for a while, Li Tong did not continue to talk deeply.

At this time, an old man riding a thin donkey and a slave in front and back of the city was queuing up to enter the city.

Chunming Gate is close to Longqingfang, and the people queuing up to enter the city are idle to discuss, which inevitably involves the chaos that happened in Longqingfang before.

Aside from the power struggles involved, the gathering and dispersal of large treasures and goods is a very attractive topic of conversation, and there is no shortage of city dwellers who use it to show off, and when they talk about the situation of the day, it is so conclusive that it is impossible to tell whether they have seen it with their own eyes or are completely speculative.

The old man slowly moved forward with the group, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, and listened attentively.

After entering the city, a slave in front turned his head and asked, "Xianggong, where are you going now?" ”

The old man smiled on the back of the donkey: "Naturally, I will go to Pingkangfang first, this pine skin old face is indeed not as good as the style of the famous king, but there are regrets about missing the elegant things. ”
