After several days of marching, under the urging of Liu Xie, everyone marched more than 300 miles.

One is the fear that someone will set up an ambush on the road, and the other is the reason for Liu Xie, who hopes that he and the others can reach the Bohai Sea as soon as possible.

Although he didn't see Emperor Ling before leaving, Emperor Ling's body Liu Xie estimated that he wouldn't be able to support it for long.

And with the death of Emperor Ling, a series of things will unfold because of this incident, which requires Liu Xie to be fully prepared for the future.

As the king of Bohai, Liu Xie has no shortage of time, no shortage of manpower, and no shortage of territory, but what he lacks is time.

Liu Xie needs to digest the strength and territory he has now before all this happens, otherwise he will be at a loss at that time.

This requires Liu Xie to reach the Bohai Sea as soon as possible and digest the strength in his hands as soon as possible, so Liu Xie's marching speed on this road is very demanding.

However, in this way, not only can it reach the Bohai Sea as soon as possible, but it can also be regarded as an indirect training of the army.

On this day, Liu Xiexing went to a county and saw that the people lived in peace and prosperity, and children passed by the army from time to time.

This couldn't help but arouse Liu Xie's interest, and he couldn't help but sigh to the people around him: "Where is this?" If there are such capable officials in all counties of my Han Dynasty, why worry that my Han is not strong! ”

I knew that Liu Xie had not informed the officials here here, and what he observed along the way all reflected that he was a capable official, which also aroused Liu Xie's interest and curiosity.

After all, now Liu Xie has a team of 2,000 people in his hands, and he also has the base of Bohai.

If it is said that it is a march to fight, Liu Xie accepted Xu Huang, Le Jin and other generals, all of whom are rare generals in this era.

The only thing that Liu Xie lacks now is the talent who can give advice or be good at governance.

That's why I'm so interested here.

"Your Highness, we have arrived at the Zhongmu Land Realm." Hearing Liu Xie's inquiry, Chen Zhi immediately reported to Liu Xie after sending someone to investigate.

"Zhongmu?"

Hearing this name, Liu Xie felt very familiar, and it seemed to be related to something important, but he couldn't remember it for a while, so he spoke again: "Who is the surname of this Zhongmu County Commander?" ”

Hearing what Liu Xie said, Chen Zhi looked puzzled, and was about to send someone to investigate, but Liu Xie stopped him: "There seem to be a few people in front of him, go and ask in person." ”

Saying that, Liu Xie took the lead, and Chen Zhi hurriedly followed.

When they came closer, the people who were stopped seemed to be a little nervous, and Chen Zhi couldn't help but explain first: "Old man, this is His Royal Highness the King of Bohai, I have a question I want to ask you." ”

Hearing Chen Zhi's words to ask himself and others questions, although the nervousness on their faces decreased slightly, they still knelt down in fear and said, "The grass people meet Your Highness!" ”

"Wait a minute, please get up, Lone just asks who is the county commander in Zhongmu County?" Seeing the panicked looks of several people, Liu Xie hurriedly asked in the most cordial tone possible.

Hearing King Bohai tell him and the others to get up, several people hesitated for a moment, and only after seeing the affirmative eyes of the general next to King Bohai did they stand up.

I saw one of the first people: "Your Highness, we are all farmers in Zhongmu County, farming every day for a living, I haven't seen anything in the world, but I heard that the county decree that just came at the beginning of the year promulgated a lot of agricultural policies, but I am very concerned about us, and the harvest is also good." ”

"Your Highness asks you who the county order is." Seeing the peasant's chattering appearance, Chen Zhi immediately interrupted him.

"It's... We only know that a new county order has arrived, but we don't know what it is called. Hearing Chen Zhi's inquiry, the farmer hurriedly said.

Hearing what the peasants said, Liu Xie and Chen Zhi couldn't help but roll their eyes at the same time, and they didn't know who the Zhongmu County Commander was for a long time.

But it's understandable to think about it, as they themselves said, they have been here for a long time, dealing with the land every day, and they will only care about the quality of this year's harvest, but they will not pay attention to who the county order will be at all, after all, in their eyes, they can't fight between the county order, so naturally they won't pay attention.

There are only two situations that can make the people under his rule pay attention to their parents and officials since ancient times.

One is a good official who is deeply loved by the rule, but the farmer also said that the new county order seems to be new this year, less than a year old, and the real impact of many policies has not yet fully appeared, and naturally the effect has not yet been achieved.

The other is to make the people under his rule deeply hateful, such people can also be easily remembered, the two are nothing more than the difference between a hundred years of history and a stench of ten thousand years.

Just when Liu Xie and Chen Zhi thought that they had done useless work this time, they only heard one of the younger farmers whisper: "The county order seems to be surnamed Chen." ”

"Oh? Surname Chen? How do you know? Hearing the words of the peasants, Liu Xie was a little surprised.

"The grass people went to Zhongmu City a few days ago, and when they listened to the discussion of the people in the city, they called the new county magistrate Xiao Chen county magistrate." Hearing Liu Xie's inquiry, the peasant resigned.

After listening to what the peasants said, Liu Xie was still quite satisfied, although he still didn't ask the name of the Zhongmu County Order, but Liu Xie got some information from the peasants' words.

That is, one of the Zhongmu County Orders is not very old, and the abilities of the two have been recognized by the people under their rule, and the "Xiao Chen County Order" is obviously a nickname and recognition of the Zhongmu County Order.

"Okay, Uncle Zhi, give them some money and things to let them go." Liu Xie said to Chen Zhi at this time.

Chen Zhi heard Liu Xie's words and hurriedly made arrangements.

After getting the news that they and others could leave, several farmers were immediately relieved.

When he heard that there was still money and things to take, he immediately kowtowed and thanked him like pounding garlic: "Thank you, Your Highness!" Thank you, Your Highness! ”

Looking at the few farmers who happily took the money and left, Liu Xie couldn't help but have a smile on his face.

Chinese peasants have been simple and lovely since ancient times, and they will not rise up like Chen Sheng and Wu Guang unless they have to.

Although it has certain limitations, it buries its head in the yellow earth all day and is deaf to what is happening outside.

But sometimes it's a blessing to think about it. A life that knows how to be satisfied is not necessarily worse than those dignitaries.

Just like these farmers in front of them, their own reward can make them happy for a long time.

The curtain of history is about to open, and war and strife are about to come to this land, it is good to know less, at least they can live a good life, I hope they are well!

Liu Xie didn't think about completely cutting off the upcoming troubled times with his own strength, but after thinking about it, he knew that it was impossible.

Nowadays, whether it is a eunuch, a relative, a scholar or a local assassin state pastor, any of them is not something that they can compete with now, and the only way is to evolve along the original historical context.

If it is not broken or established, it will be difficult to prosper the country, perhaps only by experiencing pain can it be exchanged for prosperity.

Thinking of this, Liu Xie couldn't help but sigh slightly.
