Chapter 349: The Faint Prefect

Wang Jiuxuan originally thought that cleaning up the ditches and streets was a good thing, which would help improve the living standards and comfort of the citizens of Guangzhou, but after the scholars and ordinary people took to the streets to demonstrate and protest, and the gentry vigorously opposed it, he had no choice but to give up.

These are only internal affairs, and the most important thing is that there are quite a few problems within their own team.

For example, Qin Rigang and Yang Tianming, on the one hand, advocated the three-element view to govern Guangzhou, and on the other hand, advocated that the more capable Li Xian should be allowed to govern Guangzhou, and they quarreled non-stop every day

It's that Wang Jiuxuan has a good personal relationship with Li Xian, and when he encounters this situation, he can't help but twitch in his heart, is his ability so much worse than Li Xian, and he is not welcomed.

This is still a trivial matter, but behind the quarrel between Qin Rigang and Yang Tianming is the secret game of the two major forces of the Heaven and Earth Society and the Ming Sect, who claim to be the heroes of the revolution, frantically develop congregations and believers in Guangzhou, grab land and money, and make a miasma for a while, and often fight for this, not only competing with each other, but also within the Heaven and Earth Society and within the Mingjiao itself, they are also divided into many forces to fight each other.

Nian has contributed a lot to these two people in the previous battles, and they have great power in the army and among the citizens of Guangzhou, Wang Jiuxuan is not easy to move them, but let many gangs and sects led by these two factions make Guangzhou very miserable.

On the side of the army, there are also many problems, Li Xian is very shrewd, he knew that Guangzhou was a big dye vat from the beginning, so he forbade his subordinates to enter Guangzhou, and they all camped on the periphery, training soldiers every day.

The Sanyuanguan side thought that this was a show of weakness by the mixed Yuan Sect, and tried his best to persuade Wang Jiuxuan to lead the troops into Guangzhou, and then the army officers were invited by the gentry and merchants every day, and they had no intention of taking care of military affairs, and the ordinary soldiers were also fascinated by the prosperity of the city, and gradually disagreed with the hard training.

Under these circumstances, the antipathy of the citizens of Guangzhou towards the Chinese Liberation Army also became more and more severe, and some scholars who were nostalgic for the rule of the Qing Dynasty pleaded to help the imperial court recover Guangzhou, and the gentry and big merchants were polite to the allied forces on the surface, but secretly tried their best to slander various government decrees.

It's a little better, but it's also a love to ignore Wang Jiuxuan's orders, lukewarm, and Wang Jiuxuan's previous thought of the people cheering Wang Shi's uprising and resisting the grand scene of the Qing court are completely different things.

In the past few days, there has been a big incident, that is, there has been a murder case, an officer of the Huaxia Liberation Army killed a common man in Guangzhou, and then caused public anger, and every day there were people protesting and demonstrating outside the official office where Wang Jiuxuan handled government affairs, and even played slogans such as "Wang Jiuxuan get out" and "Huaxia Army get out."

Wang Jiuxuan wanted to carry everything by himself at first, and put everything flat before Li Xian and Xuanzheng went out, so that the two of them could see the orderly Guangzhou, and let these two people know that he Wang Jiuxuan was also a capable person, but after holding on for three months, he finally couldn't hold on anymore, and ran to the blessed land to complain to Li Xian.

"That's the way it is, now people in this Guangzhou city are scolding me every day, poking me in the back, I can't stand it anymore, you have to go up the mountain to help me. Wang Jiuxuan took Li Xian's hand, his face was gloomy, and he didn't want to relax, so Li Xian struggled for a long time before pulling his hand out.

"Ya, thanks to my martial arts during this time, I have made progress again, otherwise I will be held by a big man, what kind of system will it be. Li Xian finally pulled his hand out, and couldn't help but curse in his heart.

It's just that Wang Jiuxuan will be like this, which is also much beyond Li Xian's expectations.

Since he got acquainted with Wang Jiuxuan, Li Xian has always seen that this disciple of the head of the Sanyuan Temple is doing things freely, as if nothing can stump him, but he didn't expect that just governing Guangzhou for three months would make him rush like this.

However, although Li Xian has been staying in Sanyuan Fudi and has not entered Guangzhou to participate in governance, he has always had the necessary intelligence collection and communication, and he also has a considerable degree of understanding of the situation in Guangzhou, so it is difficult to understand how Wang Jiuxuan could be in such a hurry.

"I heard that Guangzhou has not been a big deal during this time, and it has been fine, are you in such a hurry?" Li Xian couldn't help but ask.

"Why aren't you in a hurry, now there are people gathering outside my mansion every day to make trouble, saying that I am the most mediocre prefect in Guangzhou for hundreds of years, can you not be in a hurry?" Seeing that Li Xian was still not in a hurry, Wang Jiuxuan said hatefully.

"Just scold, scold, anyway, just being scolded won't drop a meat or two of you. Li Xian said nonchalantly.

"Then what's the matter, it's because it's not you who was scolded, so you watch the fire from the other side, you don't care, right? Wang Jiuxuan couldn't help jumping up.

"Even if you scold me, I don't care. Li Xian said disappreciatively.

Wang Jiuxuan wanted to scold a cruel sentence, but then he was suddenly stunned, reacted, looked straight at Li Xian and asked, "You mean that if someone scolds you like this, you won't take it to heart at all, right?"

Li Xian replied as a matter of course: "Of course." ”

Wang Jiuxuan seemed to understand something, and seemed to feel very confused, and he didn't know what to say.

Li Xian looked at Wang Jiuxuan for a while, suddenly understood something, and asked cautiously: "You don't really care about what those people say about you, do you?" Or do you really hope that those people in Guangzhou will say good things about you, saying that you are a rare good official, who loves the people like a son, and is honest and capable, right?"

"Shouldn't it be?" Wang Jiuxuan asked rhetorically: "Since I have taken over the task of governing Guangzhou, I must do a good job in this matter, manage Guangzhou in an orderly manner, and let the people live and work in peace and contentment, and everyone will praise it."

Otherwise, I will not be the only one who will be scolded in the future, but our entire Huaxia army will be scolded, and if we fight other cities in the future, we will have to get twice the result with half the effort.

You said that I have governed Guangzhou in the past few months, not to mention the effect, I am honest and self-disciplined, and I still handle government affairs diligently every day, and work hard.

Let's just say that in the past, Yiliang and Yu Baochun and others, on the surface, were sanctimonious, secretly getting money everywhere, and I don't know how many benefits they got secretly, just those foolish worms miss them, and say that I am not as good as those moths, it is really unreasonable. ”

After hearing these words, Li Xian finally understood that the brother surnamed Wang in front of him was really blind, and he was not lightly ill, and he didn't understand the current situation at all.

"I think you're in a situation where you don't prioritize what you should do, and you forget what you should and shouldn't do.

We are now a rebel, no matter how well we do it, for a while the people of Guangzhou will not think of our goodness, but only think about how comfortable life was under the rule of the imperial court.

If you want me to say that Guangzhou is our original collection center and commodity distribution center, as for whether the people in it live well or not, and whether they are kind to us, there is no need to think about it. Li Xian sighed and said.

"That's a strange idea.

However, you should not stay in the blessed land all the time, come to Guangzhou and see how these things can be solved. Wang Jiuxuan also noticed that there was a huge difference in thinking between himself and Li Xian, but he couldn't understand the key for a while, and just asked Li Xian to go to Guangzhou to help govern the government. 10
