Chapter 216: Internal and External Governance, Emperor Xi is the Best

Korea is a Confucian country that respects literature, especially the founding monarch was a military general who seized power in a coup d'Γ©tat, so he also learned from the Song Dynasty to follow the line of emphasizing literature over military force.

Samji Island is located in the southern waters of the Korean Peninsula, and it is easy for warlords to become self-reliant if they send too many troops, but it is not conducive to the government's control of the country if they send too few troops.

Naturally, the rulers did not want the warlords to become self-reliant, so the Jeju shepherds of the past generations did not have much military power.

It is precisely because of this, although a large army was sent to successfully defeat Muhu a hundred years ago, the power of Muhu has always remained, and even the indigenous people of Tamna have multiplied to this day.

The current Jeju Pastor Lee Joon-bin is an ambitious official who, upon his arrival, has targeted the remaining forces on the island in an attempt to rid up the indigenous people of Tamna, the Mongols, and the Chinese people.

Now that the Ming army suddenly entered Senzhi Island, he couldn't help but have wishful thinking in his heart.

Since his own army can't exterminate Muhu and other forces, why not use this Ming army to help him and completely clean up those alien races?

Li Zhunbin knew that as long as he did this thing well, then he would not only be a glorious lintel, but also return to the royal capital to take up an important position with this merit.

He hummed a little song in his mouth, and last night the little lady's skin was so tender that her feet were still a little unstable, so she rested in the aisle in front of the house.

"Lady Makimori!" Two officials walked in from the courtyard gate, looking nervous.

Li Zhunbin glanced at these two henchmen with knives, and immediately frowned and asked, "I didn't ask you to pick up people today, why did you come back empty-handed?" ”

"We have all escorted people out of the city, but they were intercepted by the Ming army again!" A young man with a mole on his face explained with a sad face.

Li Zhunbin's brows frowned slightly, and he said to himself in confusion: "Which one is Li Jiguang singing?" Do you think that the woman who slept with me slept in vain? ”

"Lord Mushou, it seems that this matter was not done by Li Jiguang, but by the order of the newly arrived governor!" Another quick-witted young man explained.

Li Zhunbin immediately cheered up, then raised his head and asked, "The governor of the Ming Dynasty is here?" ”

Although he took down Li Jiguang with a little beauty, Li Jiguang was only a negotiator of the Ming Dynasty after all, and the real person who spoke was actually the governor who was about to be entrusted.

"Yes, their governor is here, and we took a sneak peek, and the governor is still very young!" The young man with a mole on his face nodded hurriedly.

Li Zhun stood up and gave an order: "Quick, prepare the horse, call Jin Mei'er, and this official will personally go to meet the governor!" ”

Daming City, Governor's Palace.

Xu Shiying was drinking tea here slowly, and after learning what happened to the Nanshan tribe, he asked Chen Shan to go and take the person back, and now the person has been sent to him.

The son of the chief of the Nanshan tribe was a sturdy young man, with his upper body and feet bare, and his face was full of disobedience and anger. 33

Xu Shiying looked at this young native with interest, and slowly asked, "I am the new governor of the East China Sea of the Ming Dynasty, what is your name?" ”

"My name is Liu Han!" Liu Han's skin was tanned, so he replied in stiff Chinese.

Xu Shiying picked up the steaming teacup, and couldn't help nodding lightly: "Liu Han? It's a good name! ”

"What you did this time is not authentic, if you want to kill you, you will be killed!" Liu Han's chin was slightly raised, and he seemed not afraid of life and death.

Xu Shiying is still a member of the military generals in essence, and he finds that this young man has a bit of meaning, and this courage alone is much stronger than many people.

Just as he was about to speak, a dark shadow flashed through the doorway.

Li Jiguang, who was wearing a fourth-grade official uniform, looked anxious, and when he broke into here, he complained: "Your Excellency, why did you intercept people back?" ”

Chen Shan watched Li Jiguang break in without a pass, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Xu Shiying took a sip of slightly hot tea, but asked quietly, "What?" Lord Li, can't this governor intercept people back? ”

"It's not! It's just that you can't explain this to the Jeju shepherd! Li Jiguang hurriedly shook his head, and then seriously pointed out the harm.

Xu Shiying's eyes immediately flashed with anger, and he forced the anger in his heart and said, "Confess? Lord Li, have you forgotten which dynasty you ate Yulu? ”

Although he knew that civil officials were weak, he never expected that they would be so weak.

At best, a small Jeju pastor corresponds to the Qiongzhou prefect of Qiongzhou Island, but this person actually thinks about the reaction of the Jeju shepherd, and he simply wants to lose Daming's face.

"Your Excellency the Governor, you have misunderstood the meaning of the Lower Ranks! Now that we are new to the DPRK, we should have good relations with the DPRK, and now sending people over will help us get along in harmony! Li Jiguang felt Xu Shiying's anger, so he explained his words and deeds.

Xu Shiying brought the last sip of tea to his lips and asked with a smile: "Master Li, are you really thinking about my Daming?" ”

"Your Excellency the Governor, the lower official is a courtier of the Ming Dynasty, so he is naturally thinking about the Ming Dynasty!" Li Jiguang said as a matter of course.

Xu Shiying drank the last sip of tea, looked into his eyes and said, "Master Li, do you still want to persuade the governor to send troops to help the Jeju herdsmen to exterminate the Hu Mu gang in Hanna Mountain?" ”

"Uh...... The lower official originally wanted to say it later, but since the Governor has already mentioned it, let's say it now! Those Hu Mu are a problem in the heart of North Korea, and they will also threaten the safety of our garrison in the future, so I beg the Governor to send troops to exterminate those Hu Mu! Li Jiguang said seriously.

Xu Shiying put down the teacup gently, and said with a cold face: "In this way, it is said that you accepted a bribe from the Jeju shepherd, and this matter is true!" ”

Chen Shan has been staring at Li Jiguang, if he hadn't known the true face of this person in advance, he would have really been deceived by his appearance of worrying about the country and the people.

"Your Excellency the Governor, is this Liu Jiyu framing the officials? This official has been in the office for nearly 20 years, and he has always been a clean breeze and an official like water, and it is absolutely impossible to do anything corrupt and pervert the law! Li Jiguang was stunned for a moment, and then immediately called out the wronged truth.

It was at this time that Huo Guangming, a thousand households of Donghai Wei, strode in from outside, and then threw a bag of gold, silver and jewelry directly in front of Li Jiguang and said, "Lord Li, this is all found in your residence, do you still have to quibble?" ”

The bag of gold and silver jewels fell to the ground, and a piece of jewels immediately emanated from it.

Li Jiguang saw the gold, silver and jewelry scattered on the ground, his legs suddenly weakened, and he fell to the ground, but he knew that his affairs had been insightful.

Originally, he also wanted to be an honest negotiation official, but the woman pushed over by Li Zhunbin was too fragrant, and he gave too much gold, silver and jewelry.

Li Jiguang knew that his greedy behavior could be big or small, so he immediately crawled over and hugged Xu Shiying's leg and said loyally: "Shizi, please spare your life!" The lower official is willing to give you all the gold and silver, and he will obey you in the future, please spare the lower official this time! ”

Saying that, crying like pear blossoms with rain, it looks so sad.

Liu Han watched this scene from the side, and when he saw that this Ming official who ordered him to be tied up suddenly became so embarrassed, he couldn't help but feel secretly relieved.

Xu Shiying naturally couldn't be moved, and it was impossible for this kind of literati to be truly loyal to him, so he said expressionlessly: "Didn't you just say that the official is like water?" Come on, drag it down, lock it up first! ”

"Yes!" Huo Guangming led people forward, and even forcibly dragged Li Jiguang out of the way.

Li Jiguang saw that Xu Shiying was so ruthless, but he said in annoyance: "Xu Shiying, let's wait and see, the old man is not without a backer in the capital!" ”

Xu Shiying didn't take Li Jiguang's threat to heart at all, and his gaze fell back on Liu Han and said, "This governor won't kill you!" What do you want to compensate for the frightening of you? ”

"Whatever you want?" Liu Han's eyes lit up slightly, and he asked.

Xu Shiying realized that she couldn't give everything, and said vigilantly: "It depends on what you want!" ”

"I want a knife from you!" Liu Han pointed to the knife on Chen Shan's waist, and boldly asked for it.

Although their Nanshan tribe is not afraid of death, the iron tools they possess are very limited, let alone used against Korean officers and soldiers, even if they hunt on weekdays, they are not enough.

"Presumptuous, is this a knife that you can want?" Chen Shandang stretched out his hand to protect his waist knife, and immediately reprimanded loudly.

"Really?" The light in Liu Han's eyes disappeared, and he looked disappointed.

Xu Shiying hesitated for a moment, then said with a statement: "I can give it to you, but you can't use it to deal with us Ming people, can you do it?" ”

"Okay, I can swear in the name of the Nanshan tribe that I will never use it against you Han people!" Liu Han agreed very happily, so he raised his hand and swore seriously.

Xu Shiying naturally knew that the saber was a military supply, but it was not suitable to supply the Yi people.

It's just that a mere knife is not a matter at all, this knife is at most to add a little self-defense ability to the Nanshan tribe, not to mention that the Nanshan tribe is not a Mongolian after all.

In terms of taking 10,000 steps back, it is actually the officers and soldiers of North Korea who have a real headache, and they have nothing to do with the East China Sea Governor's Office led by themselves, not to mention that the 3,000 elite soldiers they have can sweep the entire Senzhi Island.

Liu Han left happily with a Ming saber, and Liu Hiiragi came here.

Liu Hiiragi originally thought that Xu Shiying and Li Jiguang were all the way, but now that he realized that he had guessed wrong, he walked in and asked: "Lord Governor, you arrested Li Jiguang!" ”

"Lord Liu, what's wrong with this?" Xu Shiying has integrated into the role of the governor of the East China Sea, but he asked quietly and rhetorically.

Liu Hiiragi didn't expect the matter to be true, so he asked seriously: "I don't know what you plan to do?" ”

"It is said that he should be escorted back to the capital to await trial, but he just announced that there is a backstage in the capital, and the governor needs to be powerful now, so the governor decided to behead him directly!" Xu Shiying said the decision in his heart.

Liu Jiyu's eyes couldn't help but widen, and he reminded seriously: "This is ...... Not so good! If you kill someone, I'm afraid there will be criticism in the capital, and Li Jiguang has a wide network in the capital! ”

"Ben Governor is here to do things! The exchange of cotton cloth and materials for materials is the priority, the crime committed by Li Jiguang is to be beheaded after all, and now killing here is conducive to alerting others, so why not? Xu Shiying did not forget his duty, so he asked seriously.

Liu Jiyu nodded lightly in recognition of Xu Shiying's approach, and also said with emotion: "The imperial court has spent so much effort to build a city here, and it really wants to get some returns!" ”

"I heard that you not only have a good relationship with the Nanshan tribe, but also have a relationship with Muhu? Are the good horses that I changed last time pulling stones any better? Xu Shiying found that Liu Jiyu was a pragmatic official, and immediately asked seriously.

Liu Hiiragi thought of what happened to the Nanshan tribe earlier, and said vigilantly: "If the governor wants to lure them over and exterminate them, please forgive me!" This time, the Ministry of Industry built a city here and opened the port, and the Jeju herdsmen obstructed a lot, but fortunately, there were Nanshan tribes and Muhu bartering with us, so that the project was not missed, and the lower officials would never do anything to take revenge! ”

"Lord Li, why did this governor kill Mu Hu?" The corners of Xu Shiying's mouth rose slightly, but he asked rhetorically.

Liu Jiyu looked at Xu Ying, and said what he thought in his heart: "They are not tolerated by North Korea, and Jeju Mushou has always wanted to annihilate them!" ”

"Huh...... Jeju Shepherd wants to encircle and suppress Muhu, what does this have to do with my Ming Dynasty? Xu Shiying looked at Liu Jiyu's eyes, but asked seriously.

Liu Jiyu's brows furrowed, and he found that he seemed to be influenced by Li Jiguang earlier, and he couldn't help but be speechless.

"Our Ming Dynasty came to the East China Sea mainly to exchange cotton cloth for supplies, for example, Jingying is now short of horses! You say that the governor helped the DPRK kill Muhu, will Your Majesty be happy? Or is it that the Governor returns from Muhu in exchange for a batch of good horses, and His Majesty is happy? Xu Shiying's smile grew, and he asked seriously.

Liu Jiyu's brows frowned even tighter, and he said with understanding: "Your Majesty cares about the world and the people, and is also a pragmatic person, so naturally he hopes to get a good horse!" ”

"Master Li, do you still think that this governor is going to kill Mu Hu?" Xu Shiying picked up the teacup and asked with a smile.

Liu Jiyu shook his head lightly, and said seriously: "Lord Governor, you want to do business with Muhu!" ”

"Wrong!"

"Wrong?"

"This governor is not only going to do business with Muhu, but with everyone on Senzhi Island!" Xu Shiying took a sip of tea, and his eyes looked very determined.

He has slowly understood Zhu Youji's thoughts, in fact, it is not much beneficial to the country to seize this island of ginseng, and now only exchanging cotton cloth for materials is the most important thing.

Not only the good horses produced on Senji Island, but also the seafood of the Nanshan tribe, and even the men and women on the island are all his prey.

The next day, Liu Jiyu personally went to get in touch with the Nanshan tribe and Muhu.

Just as Senzhi Island was in full swing to carry out maritime trade, there was also movement in the southwestern border of the Ming Dynasty, and Wang Yue personally went to the western part of Guangdong to prepare for war.

Some people died, but not completely......
