Lu Xi is stupid, and his concubine is even more stupid...... If you don't play like this, I'm young and beautiful, so you're not tempted? Even if I don't want to be tempted, I'm tempted, wash and wash, serve carefully, and do anything.

She couldn't say anything about it, because Lu Xi knelt down directly, "Zhu Gongzi, I understand, a husband can't be without power for a day, no matter who he is given to be the magistrate, he can't lose the name of the magistrate, Zhu Gongzi commanded, if there is anything you want me to do, I have no hesitation." ”

Zhu Yiyuan smiled slightly, what he wanted was this cleverness.

"Lu Zhixian, can you tell me about the situation in Yishui, how many fields and how much grain there are, and what should I do if I want to achieve a great cause?"

Zhu Yiyuan said with a smile: "It's not easy to be my county official. ”

Lu Xi was stunned, and said: "I understand, Zhu Gongzi is ambitious, so naturally he won't ask for a rice bucket...... After serving as a magistrate for more than ten years, I have taken a big turn in the counties of Shandong, and I still know what to expect. ”

It turned out that this Lu Zhixian was not born as a Jinshi, but just donated a prisoner, and waited for several years before he was added to an inferior county. With a background like him, he naturally can't get any oil and water in the officialdom, but he is constantly being manipulated, county after county, and he will be transferred wherever there is difficulty.

This tossing also gave Lu Xi some unique insights.

If the Yimeng area in the narrow sense refers to the middle and upper reaches of the Yishui River, that is, the area of Mengyin and Yishui, which has a great overlap with Linyi in later generations.

Here is Yishan Mountain and Daxian Mountain in the north, Mengshan Turtle Mountain in the west, and extends to the Yellow Sea in the southeast, which is a relatively independent topographic unit.

Here the mountains and rivers are separated, the terrain is complex, the products are abundant, and it is easy to defend and difficult to attack.

If you look at it from a broad point of view, such as Xintai, Laiwu, and even Zichuan and Tai'an, they can all be classified into the Yimeng region, which is about the hilly area of Shandong.

This place has many flat stone table-shaped peaks, known as "Gu", the locals say that there are seventy-two Gu, of course, the most famous is Meng Lianggu.

In terms of topography, it is far inferior to the flat areas of northern Shandong, nor as far as the canal...... Nonsense, all the good places are occupied by the Qing soldiers, and they will not be left to Zhu Yiyuan.

But Lu Xi also said that it is not that there are no development opportunities.

Take the two banks of Yishui as an example, the soil layer is thick, which is very suitable for opening up and serving as fertile land, and the hilly area can be opened up to grow some miscellaneous grains, such as sweet potatoes, sweet potatoes, and corn introduced into the Ming Dynasty since the end of the Ming Dynasty, and a small amount of cultivation has been planted in these hilly areas.

Especially the peanut, after being introduced to Shandong, the yield is very good.

In some steeper areas, fruit trees can also be planted, and pears in Shandong are still very famous.

"Lu Zhixian, according to your introduction, there is still a lot to be done here?"

Lu Xi was stunned for a moment, but shook his head, "It seems to be good, but if you want to succeed, it is difficult." ”

"Why?" Zhu Yiyuan asked.

"Because...... The local big families are intertwined, and they can't be pushed at all. ”

Zhu Yiyuan said again: "I have also fought local forces in Zichuan, Laiwu, and Xintai, and I am not invulnerable. ”

Lu Xizheng said: "Zhu Gongzi, you must not put the gentry in those places in Yishui, it can't be compared at all." ”

Zhu Yiyuan suddenly became curious, and asked Lu Xi for advice...... The problem is also that on the complex terrain here, separated by mountains and rivers, relatively closed villages have been formed.

These villages have little contact with the outside world, and due to their economic backwardness, there are not many scholars. In the countryside of Yishui and other places, it is not the kind of wealthy family that relies on fame and preferential treatment. But it is another form, that is, the simple clan forces, the elders in the township, they often pull up dozens or hundreds of people, so that they can fight bravely.

and neighboring villages to grab water and land, and fight inextricably.

These people will also fight with bandits, and even officials don't care about it.

If the tax collected is acceptable, and everything is good to say, but if it is not acceptable, they attack the tax collectors and kill the officials. As a result, officials did not dare to go to the countryside, so they could only rely on large households to maintain local order.

It's such a mess, a plate of scattered sand, it's not easy to do something.

"Zhu Gongzi, when the official first arrived, he also wanted to make a difference, but he had more than enough heart and insufficient strength, so he could only cry out in vain."

Zhu Yiyuan nodded, "It's true, this is a difficult bone to gnaw, but since you are here, you will inevitably fight with all kinds of gods and monsters." Lu Zhixian, I want to settle people into the city first, take stock of the treasury, you can send this back to the county government first, I will not occupy the county government. ”

As soon as he heard this, Lu Xi became energetic, "Zhu Gongzi, I spent three thousand taels to redeem her for the sake of vassal elegance and relationship with those officials on the right path. Now I can see through it, Luohua is ruthless and intentional, and there are a few sisters who come out of the Qinglou who have a conscience. From now on, the lowly will only devote herself to doing things for her son, this woman, or let her come from and go back. ”

This sentence frightened this aunt who kept her own appearance.

She bought it from Huai'an, if she goes back, hundreds of miles away, she is a weak woman, the soldiers are in chaos, and she has such a good appearance, what if she meets a bad person?

And she climbed out of the Qinglou so easily, can't she go back?

"My lord, the Bodhisattva who saves the suffering, the little girl has a tragic background, her fate is bumpy, she doesn't ask for anything else, I just hope that the adult will reward a way to live."

This woman kowtowed to Zhu Yiyuan, crying so much that the pear blossoms brought rain, and she was pitiful.

She is very smart, although Lu Xi is still the county magistrate, it is obvious that she has the final say and has become Zhu Gongzi.

"Since you said so, I can't refuse."

The woman was happy, her face was full of smiles, and she was about to kowtow to thank her, Zhu Yiyuan said again: "Now there is a shortage of sewing and mending in the army, and it is much better to earn money and support yourself by relying on your hands than to be a concubine." ”

What?

This woman is stupid, let me do the work of sewing and mending?

Isn't that what my mother did?

And let me go to the army to do this...... I'm going to serve you Zhu Gongzi!

Zhu Yiyuan didn't give her a chance to talk nonsense, just waved her hand and asked people to lead her down.

Looking at the back of the concubine, Lu Xi actually felt a sense of happiness...... You deserve it, you ruthless woman, you deserve this end, Zhu Gongzi is wise!

Lu Xi wholeheartedly cooperated with Zhu Yiyuan and took out grain, cloth, and weapons from the treasury...... Zhu Yiyuan's old subordinates were very calm, but those who had just been attached wanted to enter the city, and Zhu Yiyuan took into account the problem of discipline and pressed them outside the city.

Then there was a fight between them over supplies.

More than a dozen were wounded, and others lost their lives.

Zhu Yiyuan also expected that it was strange that these people could be safe and sound, and when Zhu Yiyuan was preparing to deal with it, Zhao Yingyuan led the army and rushed to Yishui County.

When he arrived, he could be regarded as helping Zhu Yiyuan...... After all, Zhu Yiyuan originally only had a few hundred people, and it was still too difficult to deter more than a thousand people.

But this time, Zhao Yingyuan brought three thousand households, such as Song Lian, Zhao Shizhe, Zhang Lin, and many other civil and military personnel, all of whom arrived.

Zhu Yiyuan's waist pole suddenly strengthened.

After the big guys greeted each other, Zhao Shizhe said: "Zhu Yanshi, I have to tell you a good thing, the imperial court sent someone." ”

"The Imperial Court? What court? Zhu Yiyuan frowned.

Zhao Shizhe was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously said: "Naturally, it is the Longwu Imperial Court of Fuzhou." ”

Zhu Yiyuan's brows furrowed even more, he didn't continue to say anything, but asked, "Who was sent, can you let me see it?" ”

Zhao Yingyuan nodded, "People are here to see you." ”

Sure enough, there were two scribes dressed up who came to see Zhu Yiyuan, one of them had delicate eyebrows and a dashing demeanor, it was Ye Tingxiu, that is, Ye Tinglan's cousin, and Zhu Yiyuan's cousin.

As for the other, it's even more powerful.

His original name was Gu Jiang, and his name was Zhongqing.

The Qing Dynasty replaced the Ming Dynasty, and it was obviously inappropriate to call this name again, so after the fall of Yingtian, Gu Jiang changed his name to Gu Yanwu because he admired the personality of Wang Yanwu, a disciple of Wen Tianxiang, and was from Ning.

That's right, it is Gu Yanwu, one of the great Confucian fighters in the late Ming and early Qing Dynasties.

These two have come to read the will.

"Zhu Yanshi, you have won successive battles, defeated the Tartars, and restored the Ming Dynasty, which is really a pillar of the country, Your Majesty is very pleased, and is ready to entrust the affairs of Shandong to you." Ye Tingxiu said excitedly.

Zhu Yiyuan didn't take this stubble, but said to himself: "Qiong Zhimi universe, Shuo Yu Linju, Qi Ling Meng Song body, Jiali Xieming map." This is the lineage of the Tang King, it seems that my Yizi is a generation higher than the Tang King Zhu Yujian, what is the nephew looking for an uncle? ”
