Chapter 348: You have to give me this face

Perhaps realizing that something was not quite right, Li Yuanjing did not stay in the city for long.

After finishing the banquet with the local officials, Li Yuanjing immediately returned to the ship with his men and horses.

Call him timid, call him suspicious.

At least Li Yuanjing is clear about his position, if there is no accident in Jiaozhou, it is good to say, but if something really happens, he must not stay on land.

In case you are controlled by the other party, what are you going to play in the future?

The forces that should have been used for the offensive could only turn around and save themselves, wasting troops and resources for no reason.

Therefore, staying on the ship is the best outcome, so that when the next command is in place, the troops do not have to worry about their own safety, and the choice will be greater.

And after Li Yuanjing left with people, the local officials in Jiaozhou did not disperse.

Looking at the direction in which Li Yuanjing and the others left, many people were worried!

"Changshi, this King Zhao is not simple, he won't see anything, right?" An official said worriedly.

"What do you see?" Shi Wei said with a stern face.

He naturally also saw that this King Zhao was not simple, although the two sides did not communicate much, but they always had a feeling that they were seen through at a glance, and inadvertently, Shi Wei always felt that Li Yuanjing seemed to know about them.

And the Shi family has survived on this land for hundreds of years, and their control over this land is far from being comparable to that of the imperial court.

Generally speaking, as long as they don't go too far, the imperial court will not easily move them, and the people of the Shi family can only enter the officialdom in Lingnan.

The imperial court will not sign them to enter the court as officials, and they don't even want to sit on the position of governor.

"Long history, you should still be careful, although King Zhao only brought more than 10,000 troops, but it is said that he has 50,000 troops under his command, these 50,000 people's combat power is comparable to 100,000 soldiers, the fleet only needs to return once to pick up the rest of the troops, back and forth, but only a few months! ......" The man did not continue.

But even if he didn't say it, everyone understood what he meant.

Although Jiaozhou is a border, the surrounding area is too weak, and most of the people on the border are mainly locals, and they cannot be compared with the government soldiers in terms of equipment and combat effectiveness, let alone the elite Haizhou army.

In other words, when the fleet goes to pick up the remaining Haizhou army, they may not be able to break through the defense line of more than 10,000 people.

Therefore, it is best to fool the past into this matter, and if it can't be fooled, we must also find a way to resolve it peacefully.

"Don't worry about it, even if you want to blame it, you can't blame it!" At this moment, a young man who had never spoken.

"Do you have any opinions, sir?" The priest immediately straightened his attitude and sought advice.

"First, Jiaozhou can't be chaotic! Second, the illness of the king of Quang Ninh has nothing to do with you! The man spoke slowly.

"Well, that's the truth!" Shi Wei finally showed a smile on his face, he was really concerned.

Jiaozhou can't be chaotic, this is the consensus, to talk about corruption, Li Shou, who was recalled by Li Shimin to ask about the crime, was actually the one who was dragged into the water by the scholars, although Li Shou is a clan, but he came to Jiaozhou alone to take office, and he can't hold any real power in his hands at all.

Coupled with the deliberate bribery of Shi Wei and others, over time, Li Shou got used to it, but after Li Shimin came to power, he vigorously rectified this unhealthy trend, and Li Shou happened to be discovered, so he fell into bad luck.

The degree of corruption of Shibi and others is actually no less than that of Li Shou, and even what they give Li Shou is a small head, but Li Shimin also knows that he can't force these natives too hard, so he sprinkled his anger on Li Shou and gave them some warnings.

After that, Shi Wei and the others did restrain a little, but that was only on the surface, and after a period of calm, these people returned to the past.

If you want to talk about the confidence of Shibi and others, it is actually very simple, other places are not self-sufficient, and they still need subsidies from the imperial court out of their own pockets.

I Jiaozhou is also very poor, but I am poor and ambitious, even if I encounter a disaster year, I Jiaozhou will not ask you for money for disaster relief, at most I will not pay you tribute this year.

As long as the conditions permit, Jiaozhou will pay tribute to Lingnan Province more or less every year to pay some money or goods, according to the rules, whether this batch of finances is kept for themselves or sent to Chang'an, that is a matter of Lingnan Province, and it has nothing to do with them.

Jiaozhou is also the only state capital in the entire Lingnan Province that can provide a stable income, although this money did not end up in the national treasury, but was directly used by the imperial court to help other state capitals.

So in terms of contribution, the entire Lingnan Province is inferior to Jiaozhou, in a shameless sentence, that is, I give you face to the court, and your court also has to give me face, and the king of soil is also a king, isn't it? annoyed Lao Tzu turned over the table, everyone should not eat.

Almost all of them came to serve as the governor of Jiaozhou, and they were not afraid.

There is only one kind of person who is afraid, for example, Li Daliang, who served as the governor of Jiaozhou in the first year of Zhenguan, and they are afraid of this kind of person.

was originally the emperor's confidant, and he was born as a military general, and the most shameless thing is that he did not come alone, but directly with the army.

Fortunately, Li Daliang was quickly recalled, and it is impossible for the imperial court to always send such a general to be stationed in Jiaozhou, but there is an unwritten rule, every few years or two or three terms, the imperial court will send such a general with the army to engage in a year or half a year, the purpose of the imperial court is self-evident, and everyone seems to have formed a tacit understanding, I will bear with it when you come, and this place is still mine when you leave.

And Li Daoxing contracted the disease on the way to Jiaozhou, which has nothing to do with them.

Thinking of this, many people breathed a sigh of relief.

"Thanks to Changshi's far-sightedness, he didn't let the condition of the King of Quang Ninh County develop wantonly!"

"If the king of Guangning County dies and is handed over to the state, I am afraid that it will take a lot of trouble now!"

"Hehe, a living king of Quang Ninh is more beneficial to us!" Shi Wei smiled, and became more and more happy with his decision.

At first, the argument was that he left life and death to his own devices.

But the strategists behind him told him that he should try his best to save him, as long as the king of Guangning County is alive, the imperial court will not send a new governor over, and the king of Guangning County, who is now the governor of Jiaozhou, is not more suitable for this position than anyone else?

Shi Bian's thinking about it is indeed the case, Li Daoxing has been ill since he called, how can he have the energy to manage political affairs?

Therefore, in most cases, the scholar took a document to report, Li Daoxing signed and sealed it after a simple understanding, and then the scholar archived it, and then acted according to his own intentions, as for the follow-up of the incident, Li Daoxing didn't care, even if he wanted to manage it, he didn't have the energy to close it.

Li Daoxing didn't know that most of the excerpts he signed were not executed, and they were purely archived to deal with the random inspection of the imperial history.
