"Back to Your Majesty, the reason is very simple, the minister is a rough man, not suitable for intrigue, he likes to fight on the battlefield.

Relying on his own ability to get on top, his heart is steady. ”

This answer was very appealing to Liu Zhi's appetite, and he couldn't help laughing, "Haha, that's a good point, just as you wish." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Wei Ye grinned and hurriedly thanked him.

"Then let you go to Liangzhou to experience the experience first, and it's up to you how far you can go."

"No, the minister should do his best to repay it."

After Wei Ye and Qiu Lao Er retired, Liu Zhi also packed up his things and returned to the palace, and the pro-government also has a price, and the time for freedom is getting less and less.

For several days in a row, there was good news from Qingzhou, and the thief leader Dongguo Dou was forced to the coastal area of Donglai County by Duan Cheng and his troops, and it is estimated that it will be solved in a few days.

The rest of the troops and horses united to carry out a thorough sweep of the remnants of the bandits in the four states, and many of the bandits chose to abandon their weapons and surrender, as long as they were not the first evil, the government also followed the promise and did not investigate their crimes.

And Li Ying, the Taishan County Taishou, has even begun to rebuild his home after the disaster, distributing many borderless lands to civilians returning to their hometowns.

In addition, notices were posted to encourage the people to reclaim the land, and after confirming that it was not forcibly occupied, they would register and make a register and recognize it as private land.

At present, he still has a batch of grain collected from Gongsun Ju's lair, which is enough to support a period of time, so Taishan County, which was most seriously damaged by bandits, was the first to settle down.

The key is that his behavior was strongly affirmed by the imperial court, and Liu Zhi personally issued an edict to commend him and called him a model of capable officials.

This behavior greatly inspired the Taishou of several surrounding counties, and they immediately followed suit and actively carried out self-help.

When Wang Chang, the inspector of the imperial history, arrived in Taishan County, Li Ying had already controlled those guilty officials and handed them over to him along with the evidence of the crime.

So Wang Chang just went through the motions there, and after the review was correct, those who should be killed were killed, and those who should be escorted back to Beijing also had their own arrangements.

Immediately, Wang Chang rushed to the neighboring Dongping vassal country, which was also the hardest hit area of banditry, and the officials were chaotic and needed to be rectified with a dead hand.

Moreover, the imperial court's disaster relief food has been successfully raised and began to be transported to the disaster area in an orderly manner.

What makes him happiest is that since the beginning of autumn, it has been rainy, which has completely alleviated the drought in Qing, Yan, Xu, Yuzhou and other places.

Liu Zhi issued an edict asking the four prefectures to seize the time to recruit people to repair water conservancy projects, and all those who applied for the job were given generous rewards.

In addition, the county and state capitals were also badly damaged, and a large number of manpower needed to be recruited to build them, all of which were paid and distributed with food.

For those who have no pockets and their livelihoods in question, there is nothing more appealing than food.

The post-disaster reconstruction of the four states is in full swing, and we must race against time to let the people settle down before the harsh winter comes, otherwise we don't know how many people will freeze to death after a winter.

Seeing that the situation is getting better day by day, Liu Zhi's mood is also brighter.

On the eighth day of the first lunar month, the family affairs of the Nantun Marquis Mansion were held in a very low-key manner, and he had no position in the court and was not a powerful minister.

But Deng Meng is now the only concubine in the harem, and she is also pregnant with a dragon descendant, seeing that Queen Liang Nuying is imprisoned, even if she is not abolished, she can't make much waves.

In the future, as long as Deng Guiren gives birth to the dragon species, the future is naturally limitless, so there are still many people who come to congratulate him when they hear the news.

Although His Majesty has now issued an edict, and relatives are not allowed to hold important positions, the rules of the Han Dynasty for hundreds of years may be changed if they are changed.

No one can say for sure, one day His Majesty is in a good mood and he overthrows him again, and Deng Yan will definitely be soaring at that time.

Therefore, the ministers of all families are willing to form a good relationship with the Deng family and send the young children of the clan to eat and drink.

After all, the Deng family is also a veteran family, one of the twenty-eight generals of Yuntai when Emperor Guangwu was in the past, and later there were queen mothers and ministers.

Deng Guiren's return home that day was also very low-key, and he went directly into the backyard and did not show up in the front hall, but everyone knew it.

Especially when some people see her slightly convex figure, they are secretly guessing behind their backs whether this baby is male or female.

If it is a prince, then it is a proper eldest son of the emperor, and the status of the Deng family in the future will be self-evident.

If it were a princess, His Majesty would only be eighteen years old now, and there would be more beauties in the harem, so there would naturally be countless possibilities.

When Deng Meng returned home, his brother had already gone out to Yang's house to greet his relatives, and his mother Mrs. Xuan and stepfather Liang Ji were also too busy to touch the ground.

Only the younger brother Deng Yuan accompanied her, and several noble ladies in the clan wanted to come to visit, but she politely refused.

Because Deng Meng was pregnant, those people were not reluctant, in case the nobles were in poor health, wouldn't they be unclear.

It is enough to express the meaning, and it does not necessarily have to be visited.

In fact, Liang Meng has a strong temperament, and he is very unkind to these elders in the clan, when her father was seriously ill and the mother and son sold their property for treatment, they did not see these people stand up to help.

Later, when they were exiled to live in the city, they did not see any trace of them, when they had no food or clothing.

Now that she has been favored by the emperor, she has come to her relatives one by one, claiming to be an elder, and her face is really thick enough.

But she also knows that she can't offend these fellow sects openly, otherwise she will be accused of forgetting her roots, so she usually lets her mother take care of her on her behalf, but she doesn't want to come forward to see their faces.

"Sister, just ignore them, I pretend not to see them every time I meet them."

Deng Yuan saw that she was a little unhappy, and hurriedly said comfort, but it made Deng Meng laugh.

"You, you're just naughty, don't be so rude in the future, others still think that my Deng family has no rules."

She loves her younger brother Deng Yuan very much, but she didn't let him mess around, and still taught him carefully.

"I know, it won't be in the future, sister, don't worry."

It was rare to meet once, and Deng Meng couldn't bear to criticize him, so he changed the topic and taught him his studies.

This kid is smart and clever, but unfortunately he doesn't like to read, his grades are just average, and in the face of Deng Meng's test, he can only barely cope with the past.

"Alas, how many times have I said it, my Deng family is a Shili heirloom, how can I succeed if I don't study well?"

Deng Meng was very worried when he saw him so perfunctory.

"Sister, you are a noble person in the palace, my family is now a relative, and I am destined not to be in a high position in the future, what's the use of reading this?"

Who knew that Deng Yuan was very unimpressed with her worries, and turned his head and said a crooked reason, so angry that Deng Meng was almost speechless.

"What are you talking about, are you studying just for the sake of high-ranking officials? If people don't read, they don't know what is going on, they don't know the past and the present, and they will become ignorant and vulgar people in the future. ”

Seeing Deng Meng's stern tone, Deng Yuan knew that she was really angry this time, and quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry, sister, it's my fault, I shouldn't talk nonsense, I will definitely study hard in the future, don't be angry."

Deng Meng saw that he had a casual attitude, he didn't realize his mistake at all, and he was going to reason with him, but it happened that there was a noisy sound of etiquette and music outside.
