The next day, early morning.
Early in the morning, Lin Feng got up and did some morning exercises. After washing and having breakfast, he left the residence and went to the palace.
He was about to leave Xianyang, so he had to report to the emperor and then ask the emperor to grant military power.
Weiwu County is the core of Liangzhou, and Guzang County is not only the administrative seat of Weiwu County, but also the administrative seat of the state. In particular, Liangzhou is located to the west of Daqin, and there are troops stationed in Guzang County, Liangzhou. As long as the emperor allows the deployment of troops, Lin Feng will be confident.
Lin Feng came to report outside the imperial city and was taken into the imperial city. He waited outside the palace while the chamberlain went to report.
Not long after, the chamberlain came out and invited Lin Feng to enter.
Lin Feng entered the main hall, stood still and said, "Grandfather."
Ying Jiuxiao waved and said with a smile: "What are you doing standing so far away? Come on, come closer."
Lin Feng walked some distance further and stopped when he was about ten steps away from Ying Jiuxiao.
Ying Jiuxiao frowned and said, "You kid, why are you so reserved? Come closer to me."
Lin Feng then walked to Ying Jiuxiao's desk. Ying Jiuxiao took out a memorial, handed it to Lin Feng's hand, and said, "Here, take a look."
Lin Feng took it and opened the memorial and read it. It was about Xihai County on the southwest border of Qin State. It was a cold spring this year and it was quite difficult. Please Ying Jiuxiao be exempted from taxes.
Ying Jiuxiao asked: "The governor of Xihai County submitted a memorial and asked for tax exemption? What do you think of this matter?"
Lin Feng shook his head and said, "Grandfather, I don't understand the government affairs in this place."
"You kid, don't give me a bad look." Ying Jiuxiao snorted and said, "Don't I know your ability yet? You have absolutely no problem with these government affairs. Tell me, if you were to handle it, how would you handle it? "
Seeing that he couldn't avoid it, Lin Feng said: "The matter in Xihai County is not complicated to deal with. As the saying goes, without investigation, there is no right to speak. Since Xihai County said that there is a spring drought and it is quite serious, the emperor's grandfather will directly arrange a Someone who is capable and trustworthy can go to Xihai County secretly to investigate."
"If the situation is indeed true and the local drought is serious, arrangements can be made. If the drought is not serious, the prefect of Xihai County still submits a memorial requesting tax exemption. Then deal with it. After all, the imperial court arranges for the prefect to govern a place. To relieve the imperial court's worries."
Lin Feng said: "If something happens and you become the imperial court and relieve the local governor, that would be upside down."
A flash of approval flashed across Ying Jiuxiao's eyes, and he nodded and said, "You just said that if there is a serious drought in the local area, we have to deal with it. How to deal with it?"
Lin Feng replied: "Grandfather, the court's arrangements can be divided into three levels. First, if the local government can barely support it, the court only needs to encourage it and let the prefect of Xihai County solve the matter on his own."
"Second, if it is a little serious, the imperial court can dispatch a batch of grain for relief without tax reduction or exemption. Third, if it is really serious, relief must be provided. It may even endanger this year's autumn harvest. There may be no harvest, and there will be no harvest until the autumn harvest. It is not too late to introduce tax exemption policies.”
"Spring has just begun. Even if there is a spring drought this year, it can be alleviated by subsequent rains. What's more, there is also Qinghai Lake in Xihai County. It is a large lake with many small rivers around it. We can also find a way."
Lin Feng said: "The issue of tax reduction and exemption is such a big deal, how can it be easily arranged? This cannot be reduced or reduced at will. Once this happens, everyone will have to write to the court and request tax reduction or exemption."
Ying Jiuxiao's eyes showed unabashed approval.
Lin Feng is really a good guy.
This processing method is also reasonable.
Ying Jiuxiao sighed and said, "The plan you mentioned is reasonable and very good."
Lin Feng said: "Why does the imperial grandfather sigh?"
Ying Jiuxiao said: "I asked the prince about the solution to this matter. Alas, the prince thought that the tax could be exempted. I am so disappointed."
Lin Feng's heart skipped a beat.
When it comes to the prince Ying Yuqian, once Ying Jiuxiao is dissatisfied with Ying Yuqian, the position of the prince and crown prince will be in danger.
This cannot go wrong.
Lin Feng's mind turned quickly. He smiled softly and said, "Grandfather, as the prince, my father-in-law also has certain difficulties."
Ying Jiuxiao was a little dissatisfied and said: "What difficulties can he have? Does he have difficulties when it comes to handling a government matter?"
Lin Feng said sternly: "The prince is the crown prince of the country. He must act in a steady manner. He cannot be impatient or slow. To put it simply, it is best to follow the golden mean. Although this matter is the prince's opinion, my grandson can predict that the court will The vast majority of officials in China also recognize tax exemption.”
"Why, naturally I hope that more things will be better than less things. When it comes to investigating Xihai County, whoever proposes to investigate will be suspicious of Xihai County and will be easily resented by the prefect of Xihai County. Therefore, in such a situation, it is impossible for officials to support the investigation .”
"The prince is always at the forefront of the storm. If he gets ahead of everything, he will be targeted."
"My father-in-law's suggestion is also excusable."
Lin Feng sighed and said: "Imperial grandfather, the prince has been cautious and suppressed for more than ten years. Now, it is naturally impossible to be wanton. This is not his wish, it is caused by the situation."
Ying Jiuxiao stroked his beard and laughed, saying, "You see clearly, kid."
Lin Feng said: "The imperial grandfather praised Miao."
Ying Jiuxiao waved his hand and said, "Forget it, don't worry about the prince's affairs. What do you want to do when you come to the palace today?"
Lin Feng said: "There are three things."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "Say it directly."
Lin Feng said: "First, I am planning to leave for Guzang County today to take up my post, and I have come here specifically to say goodbye to my imperial grandfather. Second, the situation in Weiwu County and even Guzang County is somewhat special and complicated. It is not as simple as it seems. Please inform the Imperial Grandfather. Thirdly, ask the Imperial Grandfather to give me the tiger talisman and allow me to mobilize the Liangzhou garrison in Guzang County."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "I'm sure."
Lin Feng was a little stunned and said, "Grandfather, don't you want to ask why?"
Ying Jiuxiao said: "I believe you."
Lin Feng said: "Emperor Grandfather, here in Weiwu County, there is something fishy about the former governor Han Qianshan falling off his horse. There are also many problems in Guzang County, which may be related to the local Qiang and Di tribes, as well as the local big families. It’s involved. That’s why I need to mobilize troops.”
Ying Jiuxiao said sternly: "Weiwu County is located in the west of Daqin. There are originally many barbarians. These barbarians mix with Qin people, which is easy to cause problems. Han Qianshan was arranged to serve here in order to solve the problem of Qiang people and Di people. People’s problems are just not solved by him.”
"I have some suspicions about this matter. It's just that the court concluded that the person is dead, so I didn't delve into it further."
"It's not that we don't dig into it, it's just that it's difficult to solve."
"Excessive exploration can easily lead to turmoil. After all, the settlement of Qiang and Di people involves all aspects and is difficult to deal with. Now, in the stage of confrontation with Xia and Yan, stability is the priority at this time."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "Wang Yue has outstanding abilities, so I arranged for him to go. Now that I have your help, here in Guzang County, I believe in you."
Lin Feng said: "Please rest assured, Grandfather, I will take care of things."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "The Spring Thunder Sword is given to you by me. You take the Spring Thunder Sword and kill it first and then kill it. There is no need to ask for advice."
While talking, Ying Jiuxiao took out the Tiger Talisman for mobilizing troops, which was specially used to recruit the garrison in Liangzhou. Ying Jiuxiao handed half of the Tiger Talisman to Lin Feng and said, "I give you the Tiger Talisman so that you can mobilize the army."
"Thank you, Grandfather Emperor."
Lin Feng accepted the tiger talisman and felt relieved.
With the army, we have confidence.
Lin Feng suddenly said: "There is one more thing that I need to ask the emperor to arrange."
Ying Jiuxiao said: "What's the matter?"
Lin Feng said: "My master Xunzi and the great master Li Cihang have not arrived in Daqin yet. When they arrive in Daqin, please arrange for someone to welcome them and settle them in. As for the teacher, he will study knowledge and teach in Daqin."
"Li Cihang here, he is the great master of the Taoist sect. When I invited him to come to Daqin, I promised to allow the Taoist sect to preach in Daqin. At the same time, he also helped the generals trained by the Daqin army to improve their martial arts. When the time comes, arrange for the generals to hand over Give Li Cihang training and instruction."
"That's what follows."
Lin Feng said: "Because I want to go to Guzang County, I can only ask the emperor's grandfather to arrange these things."
Ying Jiuxiao showed an expectant smile on his face and said: "Don't worry, I will make arrangements. One is the leader of the world's literary world, and the other is a great master. These two people are two treasures. I will make arrangements."
Lin Feng doesn't want to stay anymore, so please leave.
Lin Feng left the palace and returned to the Lin family. He said goodbye to Bai Yuyao and left Xianyang with Huan Suzhi, Gao Xiaoyu and the Eighteen Tianlong Cavalry.
This time, Ying Wu did not accompany him.
Lin Feng is already a master at the master level and does not need to be protected after winning five. The Eighteen Tianlong Cavalry needed some training, so Lin Feng took the Eighteen Tianlong Cavalry with him.
The group left Xianyang and sped towards Liangzhou.
