Chapter Forty-Eight: Finding Fault?

"Be careful, be careful, this is a collated document, don't break it up...... Hey, hey, hey, this is the official document to be dealt with today, don't look for it to move to the carriage so much. This thing is moved at the end, so you can take it casually when you use it. What I'm going to see in the carriage...... Hey, hey, hey, this is the four treasures of the study, it's broken, and your salary will be deducted! ”

Ma Zhou commanded the soldiers with his fingers, and carried the archives and miscellaneous things in the Gyeongju Governor's Mansion to the carriage outside the Governor's Mansion, which was a bit indispensable.

Luo Shixin walked to the vicinity, touched the little whiskers growing from the corners of his mouth, and forcibly suppressed the urge to pull them out one by one, and made it as beautiful as possible.

In ancient times, beard was a must-do for men.

The so-called body hair and skin, the parents who receive it, dare not destroy it, and the beginning of filial piety is also.

And perhaps because of aesthetics, the ancients regarded beards as beautiful and paid attention to dignified eyebrows. This beard is good-looking and majestic, and he is often known as a beautiful bearded man, like Liu Bang, like Guan Yu.

This generation of beardless men would be regarded as eunuchs or physically defective men. Then Luo Shixin, as a descendant of the world, got up to shave his beard in three or two days, and he had already developed a habit, and he was very dissatisfied with the little bit of mustache that appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he had the urge to shave it off many times. But thinking about the consequences of scraping off, I still forced myself to give up that idea. Because some people are not used to touching it twice from time to time, in the eyes of outsiders, it is the expression of beard love.

"How's it going?" Luo Shixin looked at the busy Ma Zhou, thinking about the appointment of the imperial court, he was still a little stunned: he was still a little younger. I didn't expect Liu Min and Liu Lan to be so ruthless, hiding knives in their smiles and playing so slippery.

In his opinion, it is just to open a position to help the people, and the more power he has, the more power he has. It's okay to take a penalty.

There is no need for Zheng Liwan's calculation, Ma Zhou's plan complicates things.

Luo Shixin also has his own ideas, and their top figure is Li Shimin, the emperor of the ages who can be compared with the Qin Emperor and Han Wu. Ordinary fancy work can't hide from him, he doesn't have a certain level of ability, and he doesn't have a lot of thoughts. He can see it in any way he justifies. Instead of making him feel that he shirks responsibility, it is better to take responsibility. This punishment can also show that he is honest. There is no shirking responsibility for cheating and slippery.

It's good to do what you do yourself, and there's no need to involve Zheng Liwan and Ma Zhou.

He dared to be so calm, also because he understood Li Shimin's personality. Li Shimin is a meritorious person. There is still a certain amount of tolerance. Historically, Hou Junji intended to rebel. Li Shimin pardoned him on the grounds that there was insufficient evidence. Wei Chi Jingde beat up Li Daozong, a relative of the emperor and the Tang Dynasty, at the banquet he held, and was also pardoned.

He didn't do anything in Xiazhou, so he wouldn't be punished severely. He didn't expect that Liu Min and Liu Lan would link his random behavior with a conspiracy.

After listening to Ma Zhou's analysis, he was shocked into a cold sweat, and he was secretly glad that it was Li Shimin who was in charge above, and he was able to see the slightest gap and go wrong, and gave a punishment that was not a punishment: because he was careless and overstepped his authority, he was removed from the position of governor of Gyeongju. Recall Chang'an to listen to use. This has not yet gone out of Gyeongju, and another reward has come. The above table of his exploits, said that he captured Shuofang, recovered the lost territory, specially appointed as the governor of Xiazhou, Suizhou and Yanzhou were included in the rule of Xiazhou, the governor's palace was located in Shuofang City, and the border troops of Gyeongju were transferred to Shuofang to stand by. If the family is willing to follow, they will be rewarded with a sheep and all taxes will be reduced in the first year, only 50% in the second year and 80% in the third year. In the first year, the imperial court rented ploughing cattle free of charge, reflecting the courage to develop Xiazhou Shuofang.

This time back and forth, Luo Shixin did not change anything except that his name was changed from the governor of Gyeongju to the governor of Xiazhou, and the jurisdiction area changed from Gyeongju, Suizhou, and Yanzhou to Xiazhou, Suizhou, and Yanzhou. Because Xiazhou contains Shuofang and Shuobei grassland, the territory under its jurisdiction is much larger.

Luo Shixin was also a little dumbfounded when he got this appointment, so he had to return to Gyeongju again and move things to Shuofang to take up his post.

Because the above classified Suizhou and Yanzhou under the rule of the Xiazhou Governor, all kinds of materials of Suizhou and Yanzhou in the Gyeongju Governor's Mansion had to be brought to Xiazhou Shuofang.

There are also weapons, armor, and military horses that are stored in Gyeongju.

Time is a little short, and it is a little rushed.

Weapons, armor, and military horses Luo Shixin are the things he cares about the most, so he arranged for Wang Xuance and Liu Renliang to be in charge, and the official document or something can only trouble Ma Zhou, knowing that he is hard, he also came to see him.

Ma Zhou smiled: "It's almost, I'll be able to leave in the evening." ”

"Thanks to Mr. this time!" Luo Shixin had just received a letter from Li Shimin, in which he scolded him and told him to act cautiously in the future, the court was not as simple as he thought, and he also mentioned the matter of the letter, so that he could thank Ma Zhou well.

Ma Zhou shook his head and said: "With a lot of effort, where can it compare to the kindness of adults to the subordinates." Although the adults do not behave properly, they are sincere. It's a shame to say that he boasted of being rich and rich, and he was too high, thinking that he should be like a famous minister in history, and he disdained to be a small official and was willing to degenerate, so he achieved nothing. Acting under the command of an adult. Time is short, but I am deeply touched. Adults are in high positions but not arrogant, and they hold power but not greed. Ma Zhou is ashamed of himself, and he is even more ashamed. It's a great privilege to be able to work for adults. ”

Luo Shixin couldn't help but praise the most, especially a wise man like Ma Zhou, and couldn't help but smile flutteringly: "Ma joined the army and won the award, I just did what I should do." But I'm curious about what you wrote to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and he takes you even more seriously. ”

Ma Zhou smiled faintly: "It's nothing, it's just two people, one is Han Xin, and the other is Huo Quai." It's just that the general's personality is similar to Huo Quzhi, not Han Xin. ”

Luo Shixin was confused, but seeing that Ma Zhou was unwilling to explain in detail, he didn't ask more.

Sure enough, it wasn't until late afternoon that the official document was ready.

Luo Shixin was not in a hurry, rested for a night, and went to Shuofang at dawn the next day.

This has not yet arrived in Shuofang, but when he came to the Luzi Pass in Yanzhou out of Xiazhou, Luo Shixin unexpectedly got a message from Shuofang in Xiazhou.

Hundreds of herders of the Golulu tribe led their flocks of sheep and horses into the grasslands of Shuobei to graze.

Luo Shixin was stunned for a long time when he heard the news, and suddenly pulled his sleeves and scolded: "This Lao Tzu is the governor of Xiazhou, just about to take office, and the eight lambs came to graze in my territory, and they came to find faults." Huzi immediately called Xue Yong and Su Dingfang to mobilize soldiers and horses to fight. (To be continued......)
