After learning that Yuan Shu was proclaimed emperor, Zhao Hui also returned to Jizhou with Zhang Xue, Zhao Hong, and the families of Zhang Wang, Zhou Cang and others.

After that, Yecheng will be Zhao Hui's center of gravity.

Dian Wei and Jia Xu have also returned from Liaodong.

Because there are many old and weak women and children in the family, the speed of the procession is not fast.

did not use warships, whether it was Jicheng or Yecheng, they were not close to the sea.

Even if you take a warship, it won't save time.

To take a warship, you must first go to Liaoxi, and then land in Bohai County.

In fact, there is not much gap between the road to be taken and Jicheng directly to Yecheng.

Although there are many family members, which affects the trip, the safety on the road can still be guaranteed.

No bandit dares to cause trouble.

When I saw it, I avoided it from afar.

Because the team traveled very slowly, it was only ten or twenty miles a day.

Zhao Hui didn't always follow the big army.

He has a yellow lion, and he can run 500 miles a day.

If he only walked twenty miles, Zhao Hui was afraid that he would be suffocated.

So Zhao Hui basically took Huang Kui, a personal guard, and ran in front.

Especially if there is a city or village in front of you. Zhao Hui will arrive a few days earlier.

Let's go into the city and take a look.

Although Youzhou has developed better and better in recent years, it is impossible for Zhao Hui to be clear about every city below.

He took this opportunity to take a look at the way.

Only in this way can he also see the true situation.

If he had been following the large army, those county orders would have been able to get the news a few days earlier, and then make preparations, and Zhao Hui would have seen a different scene.

The officials in Youzhou have changed a lot over the years, which can be described as a big water change.

Those who were vegetarians, took bribes, and oppressed the people have long been dismissed.

Beheaded, exiled.

Now many of them have been promoted by participating in the imperial examination in the past few years.

Most of those little officials are outstanding people who graduated from several colleges in Youzhou.

Moreover, Zhao Hui set up a Ministry of Supervision to keep an eye on officials in various places.

The officialdom of Youzhou is now very clear in Dahan.

Zhao Hui put on civilian clothes and came all the way with Huang Kui.

Although it is not said that everyone is rich, at least we have not seen anyone oppress the people.

Even the number of beggars in the city was very small.

Although it is not as prosperous as Yecheng Jicheng, the people in the city are now living and working in peace and contentment.

However, compared with the people in the city, the people in the villages outside the city still have a hard time.

Especially at this point in time, many people's families have little food left after a winter.

It is very difficult to survive the summer harvest and autumn harvest.

Every day, the women in the house also have to go out and dig some wild vegetables and come back.

Although the days are a little harder, they can barely get by.

Occasionally catch a game or two, and they will also take it to the city to sell, and come back in exchange for a little grain and salt.

Basically, the villagers of every village are not starving to death.

But if it's bad for the thief, it's a sad day.

It is impossible for Zhao Hui to really exterminate all the bandits in Youzhou.

Because if one gang is wiped out, another gang of bandits will appear.

And before the bandits started to rob, they didn't know that there were bandits.

Only when they do it can Zhao Hui's people receive the news and go to exterminate it.

Even if many bandits in Youzhou are already under Zhao Hui's monitoring, these bandits dare not loot the villages.

But there is still a newborn gang of bandits, and they don't know Zhao Hui's rules.

However, even those villages that have been sacked by bandits will be rescued by the government.

It's just that the days will be a little worse, and starvation will not be enough.

In today's Youzhou, there are basically no people starving to death.

Zhao Hui has been going all the way, and most of the county orders along the way are relatively satisfied.

Although there are some flaws, it is a matter of their ability.

Even if their ability is enough to serve as a county magistrate.

However, it is impossible for many things in a county to be handled in an orderly manner, without a trace of mistakes and omissions.

That's not the capital of the county order, it's really perfect, then he is enough to serve as the Taishou.

Zhao Hui will not be nitpicky.

However, after entering Jizhou, Zhao Hui's mood became worse and worse.

Jizhou has only been occupied by him for a short time, and there are still many problems that have not been solved.

It's normal to be not as good as Youzhou.

But those officials in Jizhou are still bullying the people.

This is something that Zhao Hui absolutely cannot tolerate.

The little officials in Jizhou are still the same people as before.

Zhao Hui did not carry out a major purge of Jizhou officialdom before.

It's just a slight change of a few people, killing chickens and making an example of monkeys.

Although he knew that there were still many people who were not qualified, Zhao Hui did not have anyone to replace him for the time being.

At the same time, it is also to give them a chance.

But now it seems that he has not achieved his goal of killing chickens and making an example of monkeys.

Those people, maybe a few months before the rest.

But now it's a relapse.

In Zhongshan, Gaoping County, Zhao Hui finally couldn't help it.

He saw three hundred unclothed outcasts, who were outside the city, but there was no one to take care of them.

The soldiers guarding the city gate forbade them to enter the city, and even if the three hundred homeless people pleaded bitterly, the soldiers at the city gate were indifferent.

"Get out, the county lord has an order, if you don't leave, do you want to be a rebel?"

"If you don't want to die, leave quickly."

"My beg, my lord, do a good job, if my child has nothing to eat, he will starve to death."

The woman herself was yellow and thin, and the child in her arms was no more than a year old, and she was so hungry that she could not even cry.

"Get out."

The soldier didn't even look at the child in her arms, so he scolded loudly, and at the same time stretched out his hand and pushed it.

The woman also hadn't eaten for two days, and this time she couldn't stand firmly, and fell down directly with the child in her arms.

But even so, when she fell, she still hugged the child in her arms tightly.

"My lord, my lord, please."

The woman fell, but crawled forward, trying to grab the soldier's trouser legs.

"Get out."

The soldier's eyes were cold, even though he knew that the woman in front of him was pitiful, even if he knew that after this woman left, the child in his arms would definitely die.

Nor did he dare let the woman into the city.

He also has a family to support, and if he lets her in today, tomorrow he himself will be punished and put in prison.

The soldiers had seen many homeless people, and had sent them into the city before.

He knew that if he let the woman into the city now, the three hundred wanderers behind the woman would break into the city without hindrance.

Now three hundred pairs of eyes are fixed on the woman, and at the soldiers.

As long as the soldier showed a hint of hesitation, his previous coldness was useless.

The three hundred homeless people would rush in immediately, even stepping on his body and rushing in.

He is very experienced in dealing with these homeless people.

He must not retreat.

He has to be ruthless, he has to be tough.
