Chapter 330: Inspecting Yang County

The successful convening of the Confucian Conference reminded the hundred schools of thought that now is the time to unite people's hearts, and we must no longer allow everyone to develop freely as before, and we must unite all forces, otherwise if we do not advance, we will retreat, and it will be difficult to recover the situation at that time.

Not only is this the case with the hundred schools of thought, but Li Jun is also like this now, according to Li Jun's plan, the decisive battle with Beiliao and Beijin will begin in three years, so now Li Jun has opened the road, repaired the canal, and even accepted the challenge of the hidden mountain gate, just to unite all the forces in the country and give these two countries a fatal blow.

Therefore, Li Jun does not plan to kill Guo Yi, Guo Yi's damage to Datang alone is limited after all, and ordinary people do unusual things, maybe it will be of great use to keep this person in the future.

The weather was sunny on this day, Li Jun took He Jun and Liu Hong to inspect the newly built Yangxian County, next to the county is Li Jun's mausoleum Yangling, Yangling is a huge construction site, even if the outside is busy, no one dares to stop the construction of Yangling, this is the inertia of habit, Li Jun can only do just try not to repair the mausoleum inside to be magnificent, gold and silver are now linked to the Tang Dynasty, so Li Jun specially decreed that gold and silver items shall not be used as funeral goods, but there are still many people who secretly bury gold and silver into the ground, The government can only open one eye and close one eye, and Li Jun has nothing to do about it.

In addition to the craftsmen who repaired the mausoleum in Yangling County, the rest was the strong man who was recruited to Guanzhong from all over the country this time, so although Yangyang County is a new county seat, it is much stronger than other counties in terms of the quality of the people and the degree of wealth, and Li Jun also left a way for these people to live, that is, to give them all the business of building mausoleums.

This is the first time Li Jun has seen Guo Yi, Li Jun thought that Guo Daxia, who was famous in Heluo, was a man who was eight feet tall and had a waist circumference of eight feet, but he didn't expect to be a short man.

A man who was not tall but looked powerful was standing behind Ren Shou, Li Jun asked with a smile: "Ren Shou, eight years ago you were a county commander, and now you are still a county commander, do you have any resentment in your heart?" ”

"The minister doesn't dare, the minister is the people of the end of the world, His Majesty will not give up, and he will be sent to Gantang to study, this is the great luck of the minister, how dare he say anything?" Ren Shou hurriedly arched his hand.

Li Jun waved his hand, Ren Shou retreated, and Guo Yi hurriedly ran forward to salute and said, "Long live Your Majesty, long live, long live." ”

Liu Hong hurriedly blocked in front of Li Jun, Li Jun looked at Guo Yi with a smile and said, "Needless to say, Guo Yi, you must be resentful, right?" ”

Guo Yi shook his head and said: "The so-called people leave their hometowns, and the ministers are not willing to leave Heluo, but His Majesty has requisitioned Haofa to move to Yangling, and the ministers think that they are still serving the law in Luoyang, but they were named by Lord Li to come to Guanzhong, and the ministers dare not come." ”

Li Jun shook his head and said, "Haha, I'm still unwilling, but when I first heard about the scene where you responded to in Luoyang, I suddenly remembered a person in my heart, do you know who it is?" ”

"I don't know."

"This person is Emperor Gaozu, Emperor Gaozu was the son of the Li family when he was young, so he was not valued by the head of the Li family at that time, but Emperor Gaozu was a very anxious and righteous person, so he slowly had a group of people to pursue, you Guo Yi is now ready to follow the old path of Emperor Gaozu, how can you let me rest assured?" Li Jun sneered.

"Your Majesty is aware of it, and the ministers will never dare to have such a rebellious idea." Guo Yi was taken aback by Li Jun's words, and hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately.

The scene was very quiet, only Guo Yi's "bang" kowtow, seeing that Guo Yi's head was already bloody, Li Juncai waved his hand and said: "Okay, get up, no matter what you did before, but now that you are in Yangyang, you must understand that now your whole family's life is in my hands, so I want a vote, can you do it?" ”

Guo Yi said with blood on his face: "Your Majesty, don't worry, the minister will do it now." After saying that, Guo Yi grabbed a horse and rode away.

Li Jun gave He Jun a look, and He Jun personally led people to follow.

After Guo Yi left, Li Jun asked Ren Shou, "How is Guo Yi doing in office?" ”

Ren Shou smiled bitterly: "This autumn, a total of sixty-one robbers were beheaded, more than Chang'an City, all thanks to Guo Yi, after Guo Yi came to Yang County, Guo Yi's reputation not only did not decline, but rose again, there are countless rangers who came to Yang County, not for anything else, just to take a look at Guo Yi from a distance, and then go away, when they come to Yang County again, or carry one or two robbers' heads, or drag one or two robbers with a rope, and put the heads or robbers at the gate of the county government with confidence, only said that Guo Yi caught it, and then he didn't even want a reward, so he drifted away, so Guo Yi was a county lieutenant, and he captured and killed hundreds of robbers in half a year, Your Majesty, do you think this person's political achievements are not outstanding? ”

Li Jun asked, "Have all the people from the Criminal Department come to confirm it?" Are those thieves real thieves? Didn't kill the good and take the plunge, did it? ”

Ren Shou nodded and said, "Your Majesty, every minister has confirmed with the Criminal Department that they are all thieves who deserve their crimes." ”

Only then did Li Jun put his mind at ease and said, "Isn't this good?" Just reward Guo Yi with some money, as for the rights, he must not give him too much, he is only responsible for arresting thieves, and the county soldiers must not give it to him. ”

"No, the minister obeys." Ren Shou didn't dare to slack off and hurriedly replied.

Li Jun got back into the carriage, and Liu Hong asked cautiously beside him: "Your Majesty, the old minister doesn't look like a big villain when he looks at this Guo Yi." ”

Li Jun sighed: "This is Guo Yi's cleverness, Guo Yi is an extremely smart person, he even learned a profound knowledge by observing people's behavior, this knowledge is called behavioral psychology!" ”

Liu Hong doesn't know what "psychology" is? But seeing that Li Jun said seriously, he nodded in agreement, the taboo of being a slave is to have his own thoughts, especially in front of an arrogant master like Li Jun, he can't have his own thoughts.

Li Jun took a good turn around the county, and after returning to the county office, Li Jun looked at the data of all aspects of the county in the past year, nodded with satisfaction: "Ren Shou, you have done a good job, it seems that the tempering in the past few years has made great progress." ”

"Thank you for your majesty's teachings." Ren Shou patted a little sycophant.

Li Jun scolded with a smile: "Okay, this is not my credit, I guess it is the credit of your teacher Bao." ”

Ren Shou smiled and said, "The teacher is indeed as kind to the minister. ”

"I don't worry about other people in Yangyang, I'm worried about Guo Yi, I won't hide some things from you, in fact, this Guo Yi is not only a ranger leader, he has an inextricable relationship with the Hidden Mountain Gate, so many years the Hidden Mountain Gate will come out from time to time to make trouble, I can't bear it anymore, I decided to take this opportunity to kill them all, and Guo Yi is the first competition between me and the Hidden Mountain Gate, so this person has a very important relationship, you must be careful, if things change, don't hold on, you must go to Chang'an for help in time." Li Jun cautiously admonished.

Ren Shou saw that Li Jun had even told him such a secret thing, and he was very moved in his heart, and hurriedly patted his chest and said: "Your Majesty, please rest assured, the minister will never take it lightly, so that Guo Yi, the villain, has a chance to take advantage of it." ”

At this time, Li Jun suddenly smiled and said, "Ren Shou, I want to do an experiment, you might as well refer to me if it is feasible?" ”

"Your Majesty, please speak." Ren Shou replied respectfully.

"Who do you say Datang lacks the most?"

"A warrior who has been through a hundred battles, is as brave as a lion and a literati with unparalleled wisdom." Ren Shou blurted out his debut.

Li Jun shook his head and said: "Wrong, the Tang Kingdom has never lacked warriors who dare to be the first, what we lack is a really good person, I think that Guo Yi has all the potential conditions to become a saint in the world, and now there is a lack of us to help the trouble, so the name of my experiment is called, how to cultivate a saint in the world." ”

"Your Majesty, it's unlikely." Ren Shou asked suspiciously.

Li Jun smiled: "How do you know if you haven't tried?" ”
