Jiujiang County, Yinling County.
This is the administrative seat of Jiujiang County.
Huang She has been the governor of Jiujiang for more than seven years. He came to Jiujiang to take up the post when he was in his twenties. Now in his thirties, he is still serving in Jiujiang County.
However, he didn't have any complaints.
Jiujiang is a good place, with the Huai River to the north, the Yangtze River to the south, many lakes and water systems, and the terrain is flat and open.
Both business and agriculture can develop.
In these years of development, Jiujiang has developed rapidly and business is booming. Within Yangzhou, Jiujiang is also at the forefront. After all, after the Huai River is connected to the Yangtze River, supplies can be transported further north from the Yangtze River into the Huai River.
This is the path many businessmen take.
If merchants can do business by water, they must do so, because transporting materials by land consumes huge transportation costs and capacity. However, taking the waterway does not have such an impact. You only need to load a large amount of goods into the ship and it can be easily transported.
In the prefect's mansion.
Huang She looked majestic and was processing the submitted information. He has nothing to worry about Jiujiang's government affairs, he just needs to handle them step by step. As for spring plowing and autumn harvest, it is all the same old rules.
Huang She's strictest control was the official administration.
Officials must be strict in their governance!
This is what Huang She has been promoting, and local officials are not allowed to be corrupt and bend the law. Once discovered, heavy fines will be imposed directly, and the punishment will not be spared.
Among the memorials Huang She saw, someone reported that at the Liyang County ferry in the south of Jiujiang County, the officials in charge of the ferry colluded with businessmen to secretly smuggle materials without paying taxes to the government.
Huang She approved the arrest and arranged it.
After Huang She finished making arrangements, another attendant came in and saluted: "Master Fu, a letter has come from the court. Please read it."
Huang She took it and looked through it.
A smile appeared on his majestic face.
The arrangement of the court was to transfer him to Tianzhu, where the emperor was located, and serve as the governor of Nanxiangzhou, responsible for governing the place. In the transfer order from the Central Government, the plan of dividing Tianzhu into three states was also elaborated, and Nan Xiangzhou was a very important place.
Huang She was also more concerned about the emperor's movements.
The emperor went to the Japanese country in the east, to the Western Regions, and now to Tianzhu. He was invincible and constantly expanding his territory.
It won't be a bad idea to follow the emperor.
Huang She was excited and full of emotions.
After many years, he finally became the governor of a state, so Huang She quickly calmed down his emotions, summoned the county magistrates and captains of Jiujiang County, talked about the transfer of orders, and temporarily handed over the government affairs to the magistrates, and he was free and easy He left Jiujiang County and returned to Nanjing.
Huang She returned to Nanjing and went to the Ministry of Civil Affairs to receive his transfer order before returning home.
Huang She went home, and Huang Zu also came back.
Huang Zu was nearly fifty years old. He had fought many battles in his youth, and even led his men to kill Sun Jian with random arrows. When he was young, he dared to fight and kill, which left a lot of hidden wounds. As a result, he suffered a lot of illnesses as he got older, making him look very old.
In the early years, Huang Zu surrendered to Lu Xuan. At that time, he worked in the Bingcao under Lu Xuan and served as the doctor of the Bingcao. After Lu Xuan founded the country, Huang Zu's official position was also promoted and he served as Minister of War.
To this day, he is also the Minister of War.
Huang Zu did not go to the front line and stayed in the Ministry of War step by step, without much power. But there is also some influence among the Ministry of War.
When Huang Zu saw Huang She coming back, he was a little surprised and asked, "She'er, why are you back?"
He didn't know yet about Huang She's transfer.
Huang She did not hide anything, and quickly told him about the emperor's establishment of Nanxiangzhou and his appointment as the governor, and finally said: "Father, my son has received the transfer order and the seal, ribbon and official robe of the governor of Nanxiangzhou, and is ready to take up his post. "
"Okay, okay, okay."
Huang Zu's eyes were bright and he was very happy.
He looked expectant, nodded and said: "Your Majesty is opening up territory on the front line, and you go to the front line to serve as governor. On the one hand, you will be promoted, and on the other hand, you will become someone beside His Majesty, and you will be able to show your talents in front of His Majesty."
"Although Tianzhu is more remote and has a different climate. But in an area like Tianzhu, good governance is a merit."
"You must do your job well."
"Don't be lazy in doing things just because it's a remote place because you have some distaste for it. No matter what, you are now the governor of a state. If you do this well, your foundation will be higher in the future."
Huang Zu solemnly said: "You are now the governor of a state, and we can look forward to the future. The prosperity of my Huang family depends on you, She'er."
Huang She replied: "The son keeps his father's teachings in mind."
Huang Zu further instructed: "After you go to Tianzhu, you must know how to unite people. If you can unite people, you can do good things. Only if you can unite people can you achieve great things. In addition, Tianzhu lacks scholars. You recruit a group of young people from your family to go there." , and recruit some more scholars."
"As long as anyone who can read and write is brought here, we will arrange for them."
"Anyway, if we give you more treatment and benefits, there will always be people who will serve you wholeheartedly."
"There are three gangs of heroes. It's always good to have someone to help you. Don't dislike these people because they can't compare with you. You went to Tianzhu and there are too many places that need people. Give them more opportunities to grow."
Now Huang Zu was talking nonchalantly.
He looked proud, but worried.
Huang She looked at his father's anxious look and his worried look, feeling warm in his heart and nodded solemnly.
The father and son talked about their plans to go to Xiangzhou in southern Tianzhu, because Huang Zu had always been in a high position and could give Huang She guidance.
Compared with Huang She's loving father and filial piety, Lu Rong's home is a different story. Lu Rong was the chief reporter beside Lu Xuan, but Lu Xuan was away on the war, so he stayed behind and didn't have much to do.
Now, he has also been arranged to go to the north of Beixiangzhou and serve as the governor of Guizhou.
After Lu Ronghuan happily told his parents about his appointment, his parents were not happy about the promotion. Instead, they looked scared and panicked.
Father Lu looked at Lu Rong with a sad look and sighed: "Erlang, your eldest brother Lu Yuan died in the hands of Shan Yue in order to govern the place. Now, it is very dangerous for you to go to a barbaric land to educate those people. "
"The key is very far away, not thousands of miles away. Isn't it nice to be in the middle of the court in good condition?"
"I have to go this far."
"You went to serve as the governor of Guizhou, where Lao Shizi was, and it seemed like a promotion. In fact, it is not as good as a minor official in the court. In my opinion, you should stay in the court, after all, you are too lazy to go."
Father Lu frowned and said, "I heard that there are many people outside who eat raw meat, and there are many dark people, so it's better not to go."
Mother Lu sat aside and kept crying.
It was as if his son had gone to Lanshi City to serve as the governor of Guizhou and could not come back.
When Lu Rong saw this scene, his joyful mood completely disappeared. He had been persuading me for a while, saying that taking the post here was a promotion, not a derogation, and that going to the front line would not have any impact, but it was an opportunity.
He talked a lot and tried his best, but the two elders just didn't listen and didn't understand.
Lu Rong really couldn't communicate.
In desperation, he knelt on the ground, knocked on his head three times, and got up to prepare.
No matter what, he must go to his post.
it is necessary.
Compared with Lu Rong's troubles, Xue Zong is even simpler. Xue Zong came from a poor family, and his parents died a few years ago. He is now working in Nanjing, has a wife and children, and he has the final say in the family.
Now that he was sent to serve as the governor of Beixiangzhou, Xue Zong was very excited.
When he went home and told his wife, she was naturally supportive and felt that this was an opportunity. The couple tidied up a bit and left the old servant to guard the house in Nanjing. Then they took the family and set off directly towards the Western Regions.
They went to Xizhou first, before entering the Tianzhu area.
Regardless of their respective sorrows and joys, Huang She, Lu Rong and Xue Zong all went to take up their posts. When the three of them went to the Western Regions, the arrangements made by Zhang Zhao were sent to Huashi City and Lu Xuan through the imperial court's messenger.
After Lu Xuan saw Zhang Zhao's adjustments, he felt satisfied.
Zhuge Jin succeeded Lu Su as the governor of Qingzhou. Zhuge Jin had such ability.
Lu Xuan was still waiting step by step. Spring started in March. The potatoes, sweet potatoes and corn seeds sent from the Western Regions were already prepared for this year's spring plowing under Xun Yu's guidance.
Xun Yu is responsible for these things.
In late March, when Lu Xuan was reading, Xu Chu came in to report and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Su wants to see you."
"Please!"
Lu Xuan looked excited.
The arrival of Lu Su meant that Huang She, Xue Zong and Lu Rong arrived one after another.
With all these people in place, governance will be easier.
Xu Chu went to inform him, and after a while, Lu Su came in covered with dust.
Lu Xuan saw Lu Su coming, strode forward to greet him, hugged Lu Su, and said happily: "Zijing, I haven't seen you for many years, but you are still so elegant and elegant!"
Lu Su was a little flattered. When Lu Xuan let go of him, he saluted and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Su."
Lu Xuan smiled and said, "You and I, my monarch and my ministers, don't need to be polite."
Lu Su said: "The etiquette cannot be abolished."
Lu Xuan waved his hand for Lu Su to sit down and said in a deep voice: "Zijing, this time you come to Tianzhu, what do you think about what you saw and heard along the way?"
Lu Su sat up straight and said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "Your Majesty, I don't have anyone around me who understands the Tianzhu language. I can only rely on translators to relay information, and cannot communicate directly, so many things are difficult to handle."
"It's just that from what I have seen and heard, although there is no war in Tianzhu and although there is no longer oppression by the caste system, in fact many people are still half-clothed and everyone has something to eat, which is very bad."
"I can't even eat enough. If I want to talk about educating the people of Tianzhu, it will probably be even harder."
Lu Su had a solemn look in his eyes.
In fact, Tianzhu's own foundation is relatively poor and she has been exploited too harshly.
Lu Xuan said: "This is Tianzhu's stubborn disease. After all, Tianzhu people are deeply oppressed by the caste system. Next, you should work hard and completely change Tianzhu."
Lu Su said seriously: "I will live up to your majesty's high expectations."
Lu Xuan said: "I won't keep you. Go and have a good rest before contacting Xun Yu. Although you are his deputy and serve as the deputy general manager of Xiangzhou, in fact you are in charge of Xiangzhou and Xun Yu is only in charge temporarily. . You have to grasp many things and have your own opinions and arrangements."
"I understand."
Lu Su respectfully stepped back.
Less than three days after Lu Su left, soldiers came to report that both Xue Zong and Lu Rong had gone to their posts, and Huang She came to see him.
Lu Xuan encouraged Huang She after meeting him, and Huang She also left.
The three governors were in place and everything in Tianzhu was on track. At this time, Lu Xuan arranged for someone to call Lu Yu. Starting from the year before last, Lu Yu followed him to the front line, stayed in the Western Regions for a long time, and stayed in Tianzhu for almost a year.
It's time for Lu Yu to go back.
After a short time, Lu Yu entered the room and saluted: "My son, Lu Yu, pays homage to my father."
