Chapter 240: Intercession
The other party talked extraordinarily and answered fluently, and Li Shengxi was satisfied. He talked to the other party about the problem of controlling Hongyin, and the other party also had his own ideas.
She doesn't deliberately solicit. Because it's completely unnecessary, just as she didn't tell the people around her that she has a big heart. Because when the time comes, they will be able to grasp it. And at that time, those who really follow her will want to help, after all, there is no old stubbornness like King Li and Guo Wei around her.
"The people involved have all been dealt with, but Hongyin City is not peaceful, and the prefect needs to pay more attention." Li Shengxi said vaguely.
The prefect thought so, and after nodding, he put forward his own thoughts: "In the past, many merchants in the flood were implicated, and His Highness has eliminated many rebels, so from the perspective of Weichen, it is better to take this opportunity to redraft the household registration."
Since then, everyone can know what more people are and what are missing in the city.
Li Shengxi had this idea before, but now when she heard the other party put it forward, the more she smiled, and she said again: "Now that Hongyin is in ruins, since you want to reorganize your household registration, it is better to re-grant land."
The smuggling incident wiped out most of Hongyin's officials and merchants, confiscated a lot of land, and also smashed Hongyin's original interest groups and ruined Hongyin's intricate network of relationships. Re-granting land and distributing profits to the people can not only appease the people's hearts, but also revive production, killing two birds with one stone.
When the prefect saw this, he also agreed.
The two of them drew up a lot of policies, and it wasn't until night fell that Li Shengxi sent people away.
"It's time for the border to be reformed." Li Shengxian spoke softly.
After the elder brother ascended the throne, he made drastic changes to the imperial court, but because the whip was beyond his reach, coupled with the hundred-legged insects, he died without stiffness. Muhammad, the Four Kings, and the remnants of the forces scattered, and they failed to notice it.
It also happened to take the opportunity to clean up the rebellious ministers and thieves to renovate the imperial court. Since she intends to take the position, she naturally can't stop at it.
"Hongyin is the first step, this road is still very long, Your Highness does not need to be in a hurry." Rong Zhi stood beside Li Shengxing and smiled lightly.
After settling the newly appointed prefect, Hongyin ushered in an uninvited guest, when Li Shengxian was carefully checking the household registration with the newly appointed prefect, he heard the news that someone was coming to see Li Shengxi.
"Whoever it is, let him wait by." Li Shengxian raised his hand.
"It's the prince of Heikoku." Rujin spoke slowly.
Li Shengxian smiled slightly, "It's good to settle him, I'll go see him in a while."
Rujin nodded and stepped back.
After Li Shengxun finalized the affairs in hand, he went to see Shen Yunsong.
Shen Yunsong is seventeen years old this year, the same age as Li Xun, and his father's bravery, he is much weaker, he is a real weak scholar, because of this, although he set off earlier than the new prefect, but he arrived several days late.
"Meet my aunt." Shen Yunsong saluted respectfully.
"Excuse me." Li Shengxi raised her hand, and after she sat down, she ordered someone to serve refreshments.
Shen Yunsong sat down.
"Why are you here? If you want to come to Hongyin to play, it's unfortunate, it's been busy lately, I'm afraid I won't have time to play with you." Li Shengxing said with a smile.
She also understands Shen Yunsong's intentions, but there is no room for concession in Shen Jichuan's affairs, if Shen Yunsong is a smart child, when he hears her words, he should know her attitude.
"Auntie, I'm not here to play at the border." Shen Yunsong was slightly positive.
Li Shengxing's face pale slightly, but she still joked patiently, "What is that for? You can't come to join me, do you? I don't dare to accept you, but my uncle can't bear it."
"I'm not here to join the army."
"You kid, do you miss me? It's a pity that I really don't have time to spend with me. Actually, the scenery of Hongyin is still very good, I will ask Ah Xun to go out with you."
"Auntie, I told you that I'm not here to play. Auntie, you've never had a last resort, you know why I'm here
yes, isn't it?" Shen Yunsong raised his eyes
Li Shengxi's smile completely dissipated.
Shen Yunsong knelt down in front of Li Shengxun, "Ask my aunt to save my uncle's life."
Li Shengxun glanced at Liujin, Liujin understood, and immediately stepped forward to support Shen Yunsong, "What is the prince doing? It's all his own family, isn't it a life for the son of the world to do this?"
Shen Yunsong broke free of Liujin's hand and knelt down again.
"Yun Song, Shen Jichuan is guilty of national law. It is not I who will kill him." Li Shengxing looked at the little nephew in front of him, in fact, before Shen Jize's death, this nephew was very close to him*** and followed Ah Xun and called him "aunt" until Shen Jize's death, he never shouted again.
His address to her has always been "Your Highness".
Li Shengxun knew that Shen Yunsong was blaming her, and she was indeed ashamed.
Today, he suddenly spoke, and Li Shengxi naturally knew what he was thinking.
Uncle's move was really good, and he knew that his brother couldn't get through, so he came to look for her.
"Auntie, I know that my uncle is at fault, but after all, he is my uncle, Aya's younger brother, your own cousin, blood is thicker than water, nothing more than that. My grandfather is already sixty years old, and he only has two sons under his knees, and Aya is dead, can His Highness bear to see his grandfather lose another son, and after a hundred years, no one will fulfill his filial piety?"
"Yun Song, do you know that if it is about the law of the country, Shen Jichuan's crime will be full of disasters?" Li Shengxun raised her hand slightly, signaling the people serving beside her to go out, and she glanced at Liujin again, "You should also go out first."
"I know, I don't dare to ask for anything, but I beg my aunt to spare his life, even if it is in prison until death. Auntie, there are enough dead, why add one. When my uncle was in prison, he would repent day and night to forgive his sins. Your Highness has always valued love and righteousness."
"Is this what my affection is for you? It is precisely because there are enough people who have died that he deserves to die. Death in captivity? Yun Song, do you know what smuggling means?" Li Shengxian interrupted Shen Yunsong's chatter, her voice was gentle, but her eyes were extremely cold,
"Do you know how many families are ruined behind smuggling? How many officers and soldiers died on the river because they were captured, and how many died while they were evading the pursuit of officers and soldiers? Do you think that only gold and silver goods are smuggled? There are countless women and children, how many people are involved? And the flood chaos that started that day, do you know how many innocent people died. The guilty should repent, but not all repentance can forgive sins. He carries the blood of countless people on his back, so why do you tell me to spare him?"
