Chapter 138: Miscalculation
Hearing this, Li Shen's heart was a little abrupt, and it was not a good thing that his father sent him an urgent letter at this time. He didn't dare to slack off, sat up straight, cleared his throat, and said, "Come in." ”
The vermilion lacquer on the bamboo slips is very complete. After seeing the pattern on the vermilion lacquer, Li Shen's heart was shocked. This is the totem that his father made with him, and it represents the seriousness of the matter. He frowned, and said to the two beautiful maids next to him, "You go down first." ”
The people who can serve by Li Shen's side are all people who are good at observing words and feelings. When the two beautiful maids heard this, they hurriedly bowed their heads and said yes, and got out of the carriage as fast as they could.
Taking a deep breath, Li Shencai slowly unwrapped the vermilion lacquer and began to read the contents.
Li Si is a master of contemporary calligraphy. In this era, there are very few calligraphy masters who can compete with him. However, Li Shen had no intention of appreciating the beauty in his father's knife and pen at this time, and he could feel the anger in his father's knife and brush.
After reading his father's letter, Li Shen's face turned pale. He slammed open the car door and shouted to the guards in front of him: "Li Dayi, hurry!" I'm going to rush to Minzhong as fast as I can! "The coachman Li Dayi is Li Shen's confidant. These days, Li Shen always slows down the speed of the carriage and horses. Li Dayi knew that Li Shen's behavior was a manifestation of causing chaos to the county guards of Minzhong County. As long as Li Shen does not arrive for a day, then the lieutenant of Minzhong will be vacant. Then Chen Sheng couldn't handle many things. You must know that Qin's law is strict, and although the county guard is the guard of a county, it is within the duty and cannot exceed its authority, otherwise it will be a violation of the law.
However, the new county in central Fujian had just been established, the people's hearts were unstable, and it was difficult to move an inch without a strong army to defend it. Li Shen just wanted to give Chen Sheng the greatest degree of restraint, so that Chen Sheng could surpass it. Li Shen has already secretly greeted many imperial historians, and as long as Chen Sheng violates the ban, he will desperately impeach Chen Sheng. At that time, whether Chen Sheng can still be the county guard of Minzhong County is a matter.
However, what Li Shen never expected was. Chen Sheng seemed to have anticipated Li Shen's tricks, and he had already given the emperor a recital, imploring the emperor to take over all the functions of Minzhong County by himself before the appointed officials arrived.
The emperor was not a man who was confined to the framework of the law. immediately approved a "cheap act" reply to Chen Sheng. Let Chen Sheng grasp the scale by himself. Therefore, Chen Sheng controlled the administrative, judicial and military power of Minzhong County in one go. Except for Han Dongqing's supervision power, all the rest of the power was firmly controlled by Chen Sheng, and many cronies were arranged into it.
At this time, Li Shen was still dreaming of his Spring and Autumn Festival, thinking that without him in Fujian, Chen Sheng would not be able to do it. This is also where Li Si is most angry. If it weren't for the eunuchs who had a good relationship with him by the emperor's side, how could Li Si know that the emperor was so dissatisfied with Li Shen.
The Li family was favored by the emperor, but Li Si knew that the emperor's favor was related to the Li family's contribution to Great Qin. If Li Shen's behavior aroused the emperor's disgust, then not to mention that Li Shen's future would be hindered, and perhaps the entire Li family would be dragged down. Li Sixin was recently belittled by the emperor once, and he urgently needed Li Shen's performance in Minzhong County to save some face for the Li family, but he didn't expect Li Shen to be so stupid and delay in Minzhong, and when he arrived in Minzhong, Minzhong may have completely fallen into the hands of Chen Sheng, and Li Shen will not be able to move an inch.
After being reprimanded by his father, Li Shenru was empowered, a cold sweat broke out on his back, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and ordered to rush to Minzhong County to see if he could snatch back some of the power that belonged to him from Chen Sheng's hands.
Compared to Li Shen, Ying Huo is much smarter. As a member of the royal family, he has a natural sensitivity to politics. At first, the idea of winning Huo was not much different from Li Shen's. But after thinking about it, Ying Huo decisively dispelled his thoughts. He has passed the age of not being confused, and he has experienced far more things than Li Shen, who is stunned. The members of the royal family are shrouded in intrigue and trickery almost every day, and Ying Huo has already figured out halfway through that as a member of the royal family, it is impossible to be allowed to go to other places to be guarded. Therefore, whether it is the position of the county guard in Minzhong County or other places, it is not his turn to be the leader. The reason why he was able to deserve the position of Juncheng was entirely because of Chen Sheng.
Chen Sheng is still young, and he needs a sleek and sophisticated assistant to help him deal with all kinds of problems. No doubt. As the Shaoqing of Zongzheng Mansion and his clan relatives, he is a good hand at this kind of harmony. The emperor made such an arrangement, only stating that the emperor wanted to reuse Chen Sheng. Chen Sheng's future is immeasurable, and it is even possible that he will enter the phase. Thinking about this clearly, Ying Huo quickly lowered his posture. Although the speed of going to Minzhong was still not fast, he quickly sent a letter, expressing to Chen Sheng that he was not accustomed to the water and soil all the way, his body was slightly ill, and the affairs of Minzhong were guarded by Duolao County, and in the letter, Ying Huo's attitude was very low. Chen Sheng, who got the letter, couldn't figure it out after reading it several times. I can't understand why the former Shaoqing of Zongzheng Mansion is so polite to himself.
For the careful thoughts of the two, Chen Sheng didn't take them to heart. For Chen Sheng, all kinds of things in Minzhong County are worth worrying about.
In order to turn the villages in central Fujian into qualified townships that are in line with the unification of the Qin State, Chen Sheng almost racked his brains, coerced and lured, and initially formed a prototype. However, the transformation of the Vietnamese people in Fujian and China cannot be completed overnight. In the case of private fighting, the law has become almost a dead letter. The brave and barbaric Yue people are all very resentful masters, and they will be avenged. Merging those villages that already had grudges into the township made it easier to stimulate their hatred, and for months, dealing with such things made Chen Sheng physically and mentally exhausted.
"The people of Yue are fierce, private fights are frequent, dozens or hundreds of people are killed and injured at every turn, and the law prohibits it, how should this be handled?" Chen Sheng tapped on the desk and asked with a frown at Li Zuoche. Since he ordered the counties to implement the township system and implement the strictest "Shiwu Lian Sitting Law" among the Qin people, the contradictions that had been slightly eased were stimulated again. In addition to the contradictions between the local Yue people and the government, there are also contradictions between the townships that are also expanding, and this month, the phenomenon of private fighting in various places is in full swing, which makes Chen Sheng very headache.
Li Zuoche lives in Yuedi and understands the habits of the Yue people better than Chen Sheng. He pondered for a while, and then said slowly: "My lord, I have a sentence that I don't know whether to say or not. ”
"But it doesn't hurt to say it." Chen Sheng respects Li Zuoche, who is much older than him, like a brother. For Li Zuoche's words, he can select reasonable ones and implement them.
