Two days later. Li Zhen led his army out of Lingui County and began to lead his army back to Guangdong.

Yang Banhou's first division remained in Guangxi. Since the governor of Guangxi had not yet taken office, Yang Banhou had to be both a father and a mother, responsible for training the army and handling political affairs.

In late August, Li Zhen led his army into the territory of Wuzhou Prefecture.

Outside the city gate, the prefect of Wuzhou and the prefect of Cangwu County stood at the gate of the city to greet them. According to the size of the official position, the prefect of Wuzhou is from the fourth grade, and the magistrate is the seventh rank official, and the official rank of the two determines the size of the official position of the two parties, and also determines the difference in identity. The prefect is the subordinate of the prefect and should stand behind the prefect, but the prefect of Cangwu County stands side by side with the prefect.

Even, the prefect was faintly pressed by the prefect.

In fact, this is caused by the difference between the status of the prefect and the prefect.

The magistrate of Cangwu County is Ye Chengxin, who is Li Zhen's confidant, but the Wuzhou prefect is just an official with no background, and his ability to handle political affairs is weak, so he does not dare to compete with Ye Chengcheng. The prefect of Wuzhou wanted to stand behind Ye Chengxin, but Ye Chengxin insisted that the two of them stand side by side, so he and Ye Chengxin stood side by side.

The prefect of Wuzhou said: "Ye Zhi County, the governor of Guangdong is vacant, who do you say Lord Li will send?" ”

"I don't know!" Ye Chengxin shook his head lightly.

Regarding Li Zhen's arrangement, Ye Cheng didn't have the heart to guess, and he couldn't guess it.

His current task is to let Cangwu County develop and let the people live and work in peace and contentment, this is Ye Chengxin's current idea. In the short time that Ye Chengxin served in office, he dealt with the backlog of cases left over from the previous magistrate of Cangwu County, and vigorously encouraged agricultural business, so that Cangwu County recovered quickly, and the atmosphere of the entire county was completely renewed.

Ye Chengxin made frequent moves, and the people also got to know this young but daring magistrate.

"Here, here, here!"

In the crowd, there was a sudden roar.

Ye Chengxin looked at it, and excitement suddenly appeared in his eyes, because Li Zhen's deal was coming. Ye Chengxin became Cangwu Zhixian in May, and now it is August in a flash, and three months have passed in the blink of an eye. In the past three months, Ye Chengxin has made results. Now facing Li Zhen, he can lift his head and say loudly that he lives up to Li Zhen's high expectations.

Soon, Li Zhen arrived with his army.

Ye Cheng greeted him and said respectfully: "I've seen the handsome!" ”

Li Zhen patted Ye Chengxin's shoulder, looked at it carefully, and said with a smile: "Good boy, it's only been two or three months, not only has it darkened, but it has also grown stronger." At this time, Ye Chengxin has indeed changed a lot, the whole person has become darker and more energetic, his eyes are introverted, more down-to-earth, and his body is more strong and strong.

Li Zhen is very satisfied with this.

If Ye Chengxin is still the same as before, Li Zhen is afraid that he will still question what Ye Chengcheng did during his tenure? The way it is now is really making a difference.

"Wang Zhiyuan, the prefect of Wuzhou, has seen Lord Li."

The prefect of Wuzhou bowed his head and looked respectful.

Li Zhen nodded slightly, and then ordered the army to be stationed outside the city and enter the city with a small number of soldiers. Entering the city, Li Zhen did not go to Wang Zhiyuan's prefect's yamen, but went to Ye Chengxin's county yamen.

In the hall, the guests were seated.

Li Zhen said: "Xiao Ye, tell me about your situation, what have you done?" ”

Ye Cheng nodded heartily and said loudly: "There are more than ten townships in Cangwu County, and I used this time to go through all the townships and towns, find out all the problems clearly, and then prescribe the right medicine, and strive to let the people have something to rely on and the young to support." But three months is too short, and now we can only solve the problem superficially, and there is still a long way to solve the problem if we want to treat the symptoms and cure the root cause. ”

Li Zhen nodded again and again, affirming Ye Cheng's approach.

A person in power must know the truth.

If you don't know what to do, you're bound to fail. In Li Zhen's view, the policy must be linked to reality, and if the order is taken for granted, it is still the people who will suffer. Li Zhen smiled and said affirmatively: "If you do well, you should have this spirit." As the saying goes, if you don't make decisions for the people, it's better to go home and plant sweet potatoes. You are a parent official, and you must understand the situation of the common people. ”

Ye Cheng nodded heartily, agreeing with Li Zhen's words.

Li Zhen came to Wuzhou Mansion for a purpose, he wanted to immediately announce the arrangements for Ye Chengxin, but after listening to Ye Chengxin's words, he did not immediately announce the order, but took Ye Chengxin and the Wuzhou prefect to leave the county government and go to visit outside the city. It's not that Li Zhen doesn't believe in Ye Chengxin, but Li Zhen wants to see how in-depth Ye Chengcheng's visit is and whether the people can remember Ye Chengxin.

The group changed into civilian clothes and was not conspicuous.

It's just that after leaving the city, it was quickly confirmed that Ye Chengxin was indeed going deep into the place.

"Lord Ye, you're here. Oops, I have some eggs at home, you take them back and cook them. You're still a young man, so take care of your body. ”

"Lord Xiao Ye is here, Lord Xiao Ye is here!"

"Get out of the way, get out of the way. Lady, I'm here to introduce the girl to Lord Xiaoye. People like Lord Xiaoye are so good, and they don't have a family, it's time to marry a wife. ”

……

Along the way, countless people greeted Ye Cheng heartily.

Li Zhen looked at Ye Chengxin with a smile, his eyes showed undisguised appreciation, and said, "Xiao Ye, it seems that you are very popular in Cangwu County!" ”

Ye Cheng said solemnly: "The people are simple, I just did something insignificant, but I am deeply ashamed to make the people so grateful." ”

Li Zhen said: "I hope you can still say this sentence confidently in the future!" ”

Li Zhen didn't have the heart to stay and took people back.

Looking at the leopard in the tube, it is enough to see Ye Chengxin's political achievements in Cangwu County. After returning to the county office, Li Zhen's eyes fell on the prefect of Wuzhou Mansion and said, "I am ready to transfer you to Nanjing Honglu Temple to work, what do you think?" ”

When the prefect of Wuzhou heard this, his eyes widened suddenly, revealing excitement.

This, this is to let him enter the court as an official!

For the prefect of Wuzhou, it is better to become an official in the court. Because there are countless dignitaries and nobles in the court, if he has one or two, he will definitely have a smooth sail next. Perhaps, some officials want to be released as officials and want to make political achievements, but the Wuzhou prefect obviously thinks differently, he is better at drilling camps than running a place.

The prefect of Wuzhou nodded in response, and Li Zhen continued: "Xiao Ye, you have been the prefect of Cangwu County for three months, which is enough for you to accumulate some experience. These are extraordinary times, and I appoint you as the prefect of Wuzhou. I hope you can continue to calm down and build Wuzhou Mansion, you know? ”

"My lord, Xiao Ye understands."

Ye Cheng nodded solemnly, with a dignified look in his eyes.

As the magistrate of the county, he already felt the heavy responsibility on his shoulders. Now that he has become the prefect of one party, the burden will be heavier, so he is not happy, but dignified.

Li Zhen arranged things, rested in Wuzhou Mansion for another day, and then set off for Guangdong.
