In the inn, the key members of the Northern Hebei Army who understood the situation also discussed it one after another.
"In what direction do you think this matter will develop, young marshal?"
Long Wushuang, disguised as rice merchant Qin Shuang, was calmly sipping tea. Hearing this, he put down the teacup in his hand.
"The people of the world are just a bunch of people. The people in Yanzhou are nothing more than a cohesive organization. I walked along the streets today to observe... If nothing unexpected happens, Yanzhou will be a lot more stable after a while."
"How is this possible?" Everyone looked in disbelief.
Long Wushuang added: "Killing chickens to scare monkeys is risky, but the results are also hard to estimate. The good thing about Gong Yang Lei is that he is dead!"
"Fortunately, he is dead? Why did the young marshal say this?" One person on the seat was puzzled.
"If Gongyang Lei was only punished by a hundred or two hundred men, or thrown into a prison, then Liang Xiao's move would be counterproductive. But it's different now that Gongyang Lei is dead. If the law is not strict, it will not be enough to shock Xiaoxiao. As the Taoist Master said, this person is cruel enough, and only by being cruel can he achieve things." Long Wushuang said.
Everyone in the Jibei Army was thoughtful.
Long Wushuang said again: "You don't have to worry too much, just act according to my plan. If he is really talented in governing the country, after a while, he will find a rice merchant to cooperate with, and he will naturally find me as a rice merchant."
Inside Yanzhou City.
"Gongyang Lei molested a woman in the street and was beheaded by Marquis Lanling in accordance with the law!"
Similar news has spread throughout the streets and alleys of Yanzhou, and even people in some remote residential areas know about it.
With the assistance of Qin Xun, Lei Hong inspected Yanzhou and returned to Liang Xiao.
"Master Hou, there are fewer bullies today than yesterday. They are almost invisible!"
Lei Hong looked excited.
Qin Baili smiled and said: "Those bullies who are well-informed live in the area close to the prefect's mansion and naturally know the rules. The ones who are not well-informed only know that Gong Yanglei was killed by Marquis Lanling for molesting a common girl. It is inevitable that Even more afraid, not daring to mess around. Is that right?"
Liang Xiao nodded slightly: "Xiao Xiao is running rampant. If the law is not strictly enforced and the people are not angry enough, more and more people will test the law and jump around repeatedly. The prince who breaks the law is as guilty as the people, not to mention the mere Gong Yang Lei?"
Everyone naturally understood what Liang Xiao meant and supported him one after another.
Liang Xiao was quite satisfied with the work of Lin Xiu and others.
They are indeed talented and knowledgeable. Even though they are new here, they are still very skilled at what they do. They have obviously done a lot of homework in advance.
In any case, Yanzhou's civil service team is well arranged, so there is no need to worry about anything going wrong.
The next day.
In the Higashino family mansion, Higashino Xuanji was discussing the recent situation with his brother Higashino Hongji.
Dongye Luoyue was beside him, bored, so he simply wrote an article criticizing Liang Xiao in case of emergency.
The personal guard rushed back with a request for an urgent report.
"The head of the family! The second head of the family! Incredible! Incredible!"
"What's the fuss about?" Dongye Xuanji frowned and took the information.
The two brothers looked surprised after reading it.
Dongye Luoyue noticed that the two of them looked wrong, stopped writing, and came over. When he took a look, he was shocked and lost his voice.
"Yesterday, the number of vicious incidents in the city was reduced by more than 90% compared to previous days?!"
"How can it be!"
Dongye Luoyue looked disbelieving.
If this is true, it means that this is Liang Xiao's political achievement!
Dongye Hongji said: "This information was sent by our people from the Prefect's Mansion. They are responsible for recording these daily routines for the Prefect's Mansion. There is no way it can be faked."
"Killing chickens to scare monkeys, is it because Gongyang Lei's death shocked these bullies and gangsters in the city?" Dongye Xuanji rarely exclaimed.
Dongye Luoyue hummed: "Even if it can really act as a deterrent, it can't be effective so quickly! Can't it be that the political achievements that uncle left before leaving office just happened to be taken over by Liang Xiao who recently took office?"
"Don't talk nonsense! I know very well how many pounds I have. If there is no big trouble in Yanzhou before I leave office, I have won the appreciation of the Prime Minister!" Dongye Hongji frowned, and finally couldn't help but scold himself. Niece, "Even if you have a deep opinion of Liang Xiaocheng, you should at least be open-minded enough to recognize the excellence of others. From now on, you must obey your father's arrangements and don't offend Liang Xiao!"
Dongye Luoyue's eyes were filled with tears.
He was obviously complimenting his uncle, so why did he still scold himself.
After Dongye Hongji watched Dongye Luoyue leave aggrievedly, he said to Dongye Xuanji: "Brother, the Dongye family must not offend Liang Xiao because of Luoyue!"
Dongye Xuanji said: "The city has been in a storm these past few days. I will arrange for her to be grounded. If she doesn't give her any education, she will get out of the trap sooner or later. Unexpectedly, Gongyang Lei's death can have such an effect..."
Seeing that his brother had no objection, Dongye Hongji breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I just don't know how long the effect of his rectification will last."
Yanzhou, inside the Dugu family's mansion.
"How can it be!"
Dugu Chen stood up, looking shocked, staring at the soldiers in front of him.
"You said that the number of vicious incidents in the city has been reduced by at least 90%?"
The soldier nodded and said: "Master, this is the information sent by our people from the Higashino clan. It cannot be false!"
Dugu Chen felt like the world was spinning in front of him.
He found that he seemed to have greatly underestimated Liang Xiao.
Once the people know about this, their support for the Prefect's Mansion and even the Empress will surely soar!
Once Yanzhou's public security is improved, it will attract more businesses and businesses to come here and vigorously develop Yanzhou...
A prosperous and powerful Yanzhou is something that big families like them absolutely don't want to see.
Moreover, Liang Xiao will also steal the limelight for this, making Mu Qinxue fall in love with her even more, and it will only be a matter of time before she returns home with the beauty.
"Liang Xiao, you really deserve to die!"
Dugu Chen left the table angrily and headed to the academy.
In the inn, the heroines were also discussing.
"Everyone took a look at the streets today. It seems that the bad guys are much more at ease, and the security situation is much improved than before!"
Liu Yuan looked excited.
"This is definitely inseparable from the efforts of Marquis Lanling. He took the risk of offending the Gongyang clan and killed Gongyang Lei in public as a warning to others!"
"This matter is beneficial to the people. No matter what Lanling Hou's methods are, at least he is really a good official who loves the people like a son, right?"
Women heroes, every word you say to me is respected.
She was the only one who said nothing, silently watching the Liang Xiao decree copied by Liu Yuan.
There was light in her eyes.
But, will the female Xuanwei tell him the names of himself and Liu Yuan?
The thought of this made her knuckles turn white.
At this moment, a female warrior from outside came to report: "Boss, the female soldier escorting you wants to see you!"
Liuyuan quickly dismissed the other female heroes, and the two of them sat downright.
After the female Xuanwei came in, she said with a sincere face: "You two, Miss Mu, the daughter of Dingguo Hou Mansion, is outside. I hope to visit you. Is it convenient for you?"
They were stunned at the same time.
"Eh? She is the daughter of the Marquis of Dingguo. Why did she come to visit us..."
Female Xuanwei explained: "Actually, everyone can see that this Miss Mu will definitely be the wife of Marquis Lanling in the future, so she is also working hard for Marquis Lanling's career. You two..."
She lowered her eyes slightly and nodded silently.
Liuyuan understood and said: "I'm flattered!"
Mu Qinxue was invited in by Liu Yuan.
