In the government office, Li Xuan stood on the left side of the public case, with his hands tied, and then looked calmly.
Wang Fanglin asked all the affairs of Hu Cao, Fa Cao, Bing Cao, Shi Cao, Merit Cao and Cang Cao at once. After doing some processing, he raised his head and looked at Li Xuan and Zhang Yi: "Two gentlemen, please return." Anything you want to add?”
Li Xuan took a deep breath, took a step forward, cupped her hands and said, "Reporting to the envoy, I have one more thing to do!"
"Mr. Lang, please speak." Wang Fanglin looked at Li Xuan very politely.
Li Xuan stopped his hand, and then said with a serious face: "This time the Tianyin rebels attacked Zhoucheng, many people among them participated in the rebellion, either actively or passively, and they were either beheaded or discipled, and they all followed the law. There is only one matter that I would like to ask your Majesty to decide, that is, what should be done with the property in these people’s homes?”
During the Tianyin Sect's siege last night, there were nearly a thousand people in Dingxingfang alone to respond to the Tianyin Sect's siege outside.
But in the entire Wuzhou City, those people were not the only ones who made moves last night.
In other villages, there were also many people who rose up to respond to the Tianyin Sect's attack on the city. Unfortunately, these people were too few in number to be able to accomplish anything. As soon as they rushed into the street, they were arrested by Fang Zheng of each village.
"Farm!" Wang Fanglin looked Li Xuan up and down.
He knew that the reason why Li Xuan was able to successfully and quickly quell the Tianyin Sect's siege this time was due to two things.
One is to prohibit officials from deducting taxes and grain from the people, and the other is to open up wasteland and grant farmland.
Among them, the former stabilized the local residents of Wuzhou, and the latter appeased thousands of immigrants from Muzhou.
It is precisely because the young people of these thousands of Muzhou immigrant families were all completely cut off from the Tianyin Sect by Li Xuan's methods, and he arranged to go to other counties to seize tax grains, which ultimately led to the Tianyin Sect's attack When he entered the city, not many of the Tianyin cult members in the city were incited.
These are Li Xuan's greatest contributions.
The prohibition of officials from severely deducting taxes and grains from the people is now in full swing. Except for the temporary damage to the interests of officials, there is no other harm in sight for the time being.
However, it is more troublesome to open up wasteland and transfer farmland.
Let alone Wuzhou, even the entire world would never have enough farmland.
During this period of time, Li Xuan tried his best to maintain the land granting and bring the people back to their hearts by inspecting hidden fields, confiscating their homes, and making donations from wealthy families.
Although Li Xuan is talking about the land belonging to the Tianyin believers suspected of rebellion, what he really wants to say is the follow-up to the land granting matter.
Wang Fanglin is the governor of Wuzhou. When Li Xuan is about to leave the state, this kind of matter must be handled by someone.
Even from now on, Wang Fanglin will be responsible for all matters of harvesting and granting fields.
He was naturally responsible for finding the missing acres.
Li Xuan herself just escaped from this crater.
Wang Fanglin smiled faintly. How could an old fox like him accept such a trap so easily?
Looking at Li Xuan, Wang Fanglin thought thoughtfully and said: "As for the matter in the city, please ask Du Shenjun to handle it according to the law. If there are other similar matters in the future, we can handle them accordingly, just like Lanxi."
Wang Fanglin lightly turned the topic to Lanxi. He looked at Li Xuan and said seriously: "Lanxi has the most immigrants from Muzhou in the entire Wuzhou. Many of them are not even included in the official records. Lang Jun When I went to Lanxi this time, I am afraid that there are many people involved in treason among the immigrants from Muzhou. Langjun can handle it with full authority according to the state and city."
But if the number of granted fields is not enough, then look for them.
If any of the Muzhou immigrants in Lanxi were involved in rebellion, their property would be confiscated and then used for land transfer.
Li Xuan thought for a moment, then cupped her hands and said, "Follow the order."
If it involves treason, it will naturally be dealt with in accordance with the law.
Although it is cruel, there is nothing we can do.
However, it is better for the final decision of this matter to fall into his hands than to fall into the hands of others.
Seeing the thoughtful look on Li Xuan's face, Wang Fanglin smiled and added: "It's better than this. Lang Jun will continue to hold the imperial arrows of this state and act as governor in Lanxi. Feng joins the army, Wang joins the army, and you two will go with Nanchang." The king went to Lanxi together, and all the taxes and grain from Lanxi were intercepted in Lanxi to be used as military rations. In this way, Hucao sent one person there..."
Before Wang Fanglin finished speaking, Han Jiang was already a little ready to make a move.
In the world, no merit can compare with military exploits.
At least that was the case in Datang.
Military merit is paramount.
"But your Majesty, we don't have much of Lanxi's tax revenue at all. How can we use it as military rations?" Li Xuan was confused for a moment.
Apart from the tax grains in Lanxi that he sent people to harvest a few days ago and finally left in Lingdong, there are no military grains anywhere else.
"Then please Langjun calm down the Lanxi River as soon as possible, stabilize the Lanxi River, and then ensure the summer harvest." Wang Fanglin immediately pushed a bunch of things over.
Li Xuan suddenly became a little anxious. He had always pushed things to others, so it was not easy for others to push things to him.
"Your Majesty, please forgive me for being rude." Li Xuan cupped his hands, looked at Wang Fanglin, and said, "Tianyin teaches Muzhou to raise troops, and the number of troops will be at least tens of thousands, but no matter how hard they are mobilized, they will go to Wuzhou We have an army of more than 10,000 people, but I only have 300 soldiers under my command, and they are scattered all over the place. How can I withstand the attack of 10,000 people? Please forgive me."
"Hey!" Wang Fanglin waved his hand directly and said in a very trusting tone: "The combat power of Lang Jun's soldiers is not comparable to that of the Tianyin rebels. One to a hundred may be an exaggeration, but one to ten But there’s no problem.”
"That's far from it." Li Xuan stared at Wang Fanglin.
He has no objection to going to Lanxi on his own, but he definitely can't have just such a few people and such a small amount of food.
Wang Fanglin pondered for a moment, then looked at Xu Jian, the military officer of the army, and said: "Xu Canjun, I want you to recruit 300 retired soldiers within three days, and then send them to Lanxi and return them to the control of the King of Nanchang. The rest can be temporarily controlled by the King of Nanchang." Recruit in Lanxi first.
As for the future, Xu Canjun will gather soldiers from various counties, and after Dongyang is pacified, all troops will be mobilized to Muzhou. "
"That's still not enough..." Before Li Xuan finished speaking, a voice behind him couldn't help but said: "Aren't there still those thousands of soldiers? You can choose soldiers from among them to join the prince's command, no? Is that all right?”
Li Xuan frowned, and just as he was about to turn around, Wang Fanglin swore coldly: "Idiot, don't talk nonsense. It's already extremely difficult for those people to ensure that they don't stir up chaos. How can we still expect it?" They turned back to fight with their fellow villagers."
Wang Qin, courtesy name, Zhuowen, joined the army as Sigong of Wuzhou.
He was a little confused after being scolded by Wang Fanglin.
Li Xuan turned around, looked at Wang Qin, and nodded solemnly.
They can indeed select a small number of people who have nothing to do with the Tianyin Sect from among the soldiers to join the soldiers to fight against the Tianyin Sect, just like Qi Guang did, but they absolutely cannot pin all their hopes on this matter. .
If you really focus on this aspect, it will be difficult to gain anything, and it will also be easy for others to take advantage of you.
"But those people can be turned into soldiers to guard other counties, and then recruit soldiers from other counties and transfer them to Lanxi." Wang Fanglin came up with a compromise in one sentence.
Li Xuan couldn't help but hand over his hand and said: "You are wise, but although the people are struggling, the food is not enough. To guard Lanxi, at least a thousand soldiers will be needed in the short term. Once a war starts, the consumption will double, and the people will not have time to go into the fields to harvest food... …”
"In this case, the Qian family is willing to donate part of it for the use of the imperial army." The waiter Qian Zhe suddenly jumped out.
Li Xuan and Wang Fanglin looked at each other and said at the same time without any hesitation: "Then it will be more trouble for Qian Sikou."
"Don't dare!" After Qian Zhe finished speaking, he quickly stepped back.
With his head lowered, Qian Zhe was full of curses in his heart. Did he really think that he couldn't see anything clearly?
Li Xuan and Wang Fanglin sang together there, and in a very short time, almost everything in Wuzhou was settled.
There was no room for anyone else to chime in with a rebuttal.
If you want to avoid being liquidated for the things the Qian family did earlier, you have to be more proactive.
Otherwise, if Wang Fanglin and Li Xuan were to take the initiative, the consequences would be hard to predict.
Qian Zhe couldn't help but feel helpless in his heart.
Originally, the King of Nanchang who was good at conspiracy and calculation was already very difficult to deal with, but now a more sophisticated and vicious Wang Fanglin came back.
This is literally killing people.
After the problem of military rations was solved, Li Xuan raised his head, looked at Wang Fanglin and said: "Your Majesty, even so, it's still not enough.
Once the Tianyin Sect is blocked from going south to Wuzhou, they will definitely send more people. I am afraid that even if we can fill in all the 1,000 people, it will not be enough. Please send a message to cross the state immediately. Please ask the Yuezhou Governor's Office to send troops to quell the rebellion. "
When he just heard Li Xuan say that it was still not enough, Qian Zhe's heart almost jumped out of his chest.
However, when he heard Li Xuan mention Yuezhou, Qian Zhe realized that what the King of Nanchang was saying now was the real solution.
"I also hope that your envoy will travel across the state and send troops to put down the rebellion immediately."
Everyone present counted one by one and asked for each other at the same time.
Among them, except for those from aristocratic families, most of the officials are not native to Wuzhou.
But once Wuzhou is beaten into chaos, it will definitely not be a good thing for them.
Especially the tacit understanding between them and the Tianyin Sect had been completely torn apart by the King of Nanchang, and the two sides had even become personal enemies.
"This state will write about this matter immediately, but if we want to send troops across the state, I'm afraid it will take a big change in Muzhou." Wang Fanglin shook his head, then looked at Li Xuan with a wry smile and said: "Besides, isn't there already a Are the regiment's Kuaiji soldiers in Wuzhou?"
Li Xuan was stunned for a moment, and her face immediately darkened.
It turns out that when he was in Hangzhou, he was already being plotted against.
Li Xuan's face turned cold and serious in an instant: "Please also ask your envoy to mobilize the crossbows and ordnance to go to Lanxi. In addition, please make your order, before the military formation, but those who delay the military aircraft or disturb people's hearts, retreat before the battle." , Those who are unfavorable in the battle will be killed!"
The word "Zhan" immediately reminded many Wuzhou officials present that the Nanchang king in front of them was no soft persimmon.
If he really wants to kill people, I'm afraid no matter how many heads there are, they won't be enough for him to chop off.
"That's it." After Wang Fanglin said that, he directly picked up the pen and ink and wrote a seven-kill order on the spot.
Anyone who doesn't respect the general's orders will be killed!
Anyone who delays the opportunity to fight will be killed!
Those who cause trouble to people's hearts will be killed!
If you don’t shrink from the former, kill!
Those who are disadvantaged in the battle will be killed!
Those who surrender to the enemy and rebel, beheaded!
Anyone who leaks military information will be killed!
Wang Fanglin personally stamped the governor's seal and handed it over to Li Xuan in person.
Li Xuan took it seriously and carefully.
He couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. With Wang Fanglin on top to bear the pressure, what he had to do became much easier.
Li Xuan retreated into the crowd, and the faces of everyone present immediately relaxed.
At this time, no one can see that the governor Wang Fanglin and the king of Nanchang are in collusion with each other.
Between the two of them singing and harmonizing, everything in Wuzhou was settled, and no one else could raise any objections.
Qian Zhe's face could not help but darken slightly. The reason why they were looking for someone to assassinate Wang Fanglin was that in the entire prefecture, they could not find anyone who could compete with Wang Fanglin. Now they finally came to Nanchang. King, they didn't even seize the opportunity.
But having said that, who would have thought that Wang Fanglin, who was originally seriously injured and dying, would return at this time.
If he continues to be injured, their court should send a new governor.
