Sign a Lu Fengxian at the beginning

Chapter 94 I don’t want anyone to have unclean hands and feet

Yanzhou City.

The capital city of Yanzhou is also where the center of power of the entire Yanzhou is located.

These days, because the mob in Yanzhou raised a banner to rebel, they successively captured the six prefectures of Yanzhou, casting a considerable shadow on this capital city.

The atmosphere in the capital city was tense for a time.

Everyone is afraid that Yanzhou City will also be captured by the mob and rebels.

If that's the case, what will they do at that time?

But today, everyone's fear and worry are gone.

Because the mob rebels in Yanzhou were put down by the anti-rebellion Zhonglang sent by the imperial court, Lu Bu, with three thousand Bingzhou wolf cavalry.

From now on, no mobs will rebel against the thieves in Yanzhou.

This made the big shadow cast over Yanzhou City disappear in an instant.

The once tense atmosphere also disappeared.

At this time, in Yanzhou City, in the Yamen of the state capital.

Officials from the state government's yamen, large and small, gathered together, and every official had a relaxed look on his face.

The frown I had before is gone.

Everyone looked at the two figures sitting on the main seat in the lobby.

To be more precise, everyone's eyes were focused on the figure wearing armor and stomach on the right.

As for the figure on the left, these state government officials had already visited him in advance.

"General Lu Zhonglang is really brave. In just three days, with only three thousand cavalry, he wiped out all the rebels in Yanzhou and put down the mob rebellion in Yanzhou."

"It's really eye-opening for me."

"On behalf of the people of Yanzhou, I would like to thank General Lu Zhonglang in advance."

"If General Lu Zhonglang hadn't wiped out these rebels in such a short period of time, I really can't imagine how evil the situation in Yanzhou would have developed."

An official sitting on the right side below stood up and bowed to Lu Bu.

This official's name is Cui Hao, the magistrate of Yanzhou.

The thirteen prefectures and hundreds of counties in Yanzhou are all under the jurisdiction of Cui Hao, the prefect. Cui Hao can be said to have great power.

It is no exaggeration to say that Cui Hao was a great official in the border area.

Therefore, Cui Hao stood up to express his gratitude to Lu Bu on behalf of the entire Yanzhou for his efforts in suppressing thieves.

And the figure wearing armor and stomach sitting on the right side of the main seat in the lobby is none other than Lu Bu.

After Lu Bu led three thousand Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to exterminate various mob rebels in Yanzhou, he led three thousand Bingzhou Wolf Cavalry to Yanzhou City to join the 100,000-strong army.

After more than two days of rapid march, the 100,000 Shenwu Guard army entered the capital city of Yanzhou the day before, led by Fang Xuanling and a group of Shenwu Guard generals.

In this way, besides Lu Bu, the identity of the other person sitting on the main seat in the lobby will be revealed.

If not Fang Xuanling, the imperial envoy of the imperial court, who else could it be?

"Yes! Zhizhou is right."

"General Lu Zhonglang is really brave. All the rebels in Yanzhou were wiped out by General Lu Zhonglang with three thousand cavalry in just three days."

"Even if the old master is reincarnated, he may not be able to do it."

"General Lu Zhonglang did it. He is really a rare and famous general in our great Zhou Dynasty."

"I believe that in a few days, the reputation of General Lu Zhonglang will spread throughout the four states, and even the whole world."

The official next to Cui Hao also stood up, looked at Lu Bu sitting on the right side of the main seat and praised him.

"That's right, General Lu Zhonglang is so brave that I really admire him."

"With General Lu Zhonglang leading the troops to quell the rebellion, the rebels in the four northern states will not be able to make any big waves."

…

Immediately afterwards, the officials sitting on both sides of the hall stood up one by one and praised Lu Bu who was sitting in the main seat on the right.

In fact, these officials of Yanzhou Prefecture were really shocked by Lu Bu.

No one expected that before the army sent by the imperial court to quell the rebellion arrived, the imperial general, who was conferred by the imperial court to suppress the rebellion, would arrive at Yanzhou with three thousand cavalry in less than a day.

In just three days, he led 3,000 cavalry to wipe out all the rebels in Yanzhou.

There is no need to wait for the 100,000 counter-rebellion troops.

With only three thousand cavalry, they wiped out all the rebels in Yanzhou.

How can such a result not be shocking?

Even if the rebels in Yanzhou are basically a bunch of rabble who have just put down their farm tools, they are not strong enough to fight, their armor and stomach are not perfect, let alone their discipline.

But there are so many rebels!

As the saying goes, too many ants can kill an elephant.

These officials really couldn't imagine how they could be wiped out by three thousand cavalry in just three days with so many rebels.

A trace of impatience flashed across Lu Bu's face as he listened to the compliments of these officials.

To be honest, what he disliked the most was the talk of civil servants.

What he said was very exciting, but his heart was filled with bad thoughts.

Taking the Yanzhou rebels as an example, Lu Bu simply did not believe that these rabble-rousers who had just put down their farm tools would not be able to suppress them if Yanzhou officials concentrated all their strength to suppress them.

Even if they can't wipe them all out, they can at least contain the situation.

How could it be possible that in a short period of time, these rebels were able to capture half of the city in Yanzhou?

Do you really think that these local governments are just paper?

Obviously not.

The problem lies with these officials.

Fang Xuanling, who was standing next to him, saw the impatience on Lu Bu's face, so he directly interrupted the officials' praise of Lu Bu: "Okay, I understand your admiration for General Lu."

"However, this is not the time to talk about this."

"General Lu has led three thousand cavalry to wipe out all the mob rebels in Yanzhou and put down the rebellion in Yanzhou."

"Then the next step is to quickly pacify the people of Yanzhou and prevent such riots from happening again."

"Especially in places where droughts were severe before, we need to double the amount of disaster relief to help the people."

"This palace has been entrusted by the emperor to take full responsibility for supervising the disaster relief."

"I don't want to see another official who ignores the people, which eventually leads to the people rising up."

"If anyone dares to slack off, don't blame me for being rude to him."

Fang Xuanling glanced at the Yanzhou officials below in the lobby and said coldly.

Now that the chaos in Yanzhou has just been settled, it is an opportunity for the imperial court to regain the support of the people and win over them.

If at this time, there are officials again regardless of the life and death of the people and provoke a popular uprising, it will be difficult to deal with again.

Therefore, Fang Xuanling must first clarify his ugly words to these officials in Yanzhou.

After hearing Fang Xuanling's words, the Yanzhou officials all looked solemn and looked at each other.

Cui Hao, as the magistrate of Yanzhou and the highest official in Yanzhou, was naturally the first to speak out: "Don't worry, Mr. Fang. I will lead all officials in Yanzhou to obey Mr. Fang's arrangements and fully assist Mr. Fang in disaster relief."

"However, there is a severe drought in the four northern states. Although the drought in Yanzhou is slightly lighter than that in the other three states."

"But there is still a lot of disaster relief money needed. Lord Fang, you have also seen the current situation in Yanzhou."

"The state government can't allocate much money for disaster relief. I wonder how much money the imperial court has allocated to Yanzhou for disaster relief this time?"

Cui Hao looked at Fang Xuanling.

If you want to provide disaster relief and rescue people, you need money and food.

It's not just words.

"Don't worry, Mr. Cui, the Ministry of Household Affairs has prepared a disaster relief plan for the four northern states."

"The Ministry of Housing and Urban-Rural Development also made an estimate of the extent of the drought in Yanzhou."

"The disaster relief silver allocated by the imperial court to Yanzhou is eight million taels, which should be enough to provide disaster relief to the people affected by drought and war in Yanzhou."

Fang Xuanling glanced at Cui Hao and said.

Yanzhou has the least drought among the four northern states. Eight million taels are enough for the entire Yanzhou to provide disaster relief.

After hearing Fang Xuanling's words, the eyes of the officials in Yanzhou below all lit up.

Especially the number 'eight million' made most of the officials' eyes brighten.

However, these officials quickly covered up the past.

Despite this, Fang Xuanling still couldn't escape Fang Xuanling's eyes.

Fang Xuanling glanced at the Yanzhou officials below and said, "These eight million taels are allocated by the imperial court to Yanzhou for disaster relief. I don't want anyone to have dirty hands and feet."

"Do you understand everything?"

Fang Xuanling glanced at the Yanzhou officials below.

When these Yanzhou officials heard this, they returned in unison: "Don't worry, Lord Fang, the subordinates understand."

After spending so many years in local official circles, how could these Yanzhou officials not understand what Fang Xuanling meant!

However, if you understand, you must understand, and if you speak, you must speak.

But whether you listen or not, and whether your hands and feet are clean is unclear.

"That's good, let's go down quickly to prepare for disaster relief!"

Now that all the rebels in Yanzhou have been wiped out, disaster relief must be put on the agenda immediately.

Fang Xuanling didn't want any more trouble to happen because the disaster relief was not timely.

After these Yanzhou officials left, Fang Xuanling glanced at Lu Bu next to him and said, "What? I just saw that you are not used to the flattery of these people?"

"snort."

"None of these officials are good."

"If they really served the people and served the court, the situation in Yanzhou would not be as chaotic as it is now."

"Do you really believe what they just said?"

"I just saw these people. When they heard about the eight million taels of silver, their eyes kept shining."

Lu Bu glanced at the backs of these Yanzhou officials as they left, snorted coldly, and looked at Fang Xuanling.

Lu Bu didn't believe that Fang Xuanling, who was named the Imperial Envoy by the emperor, could not see the problem that even he could see.

After hearing Lu Bu's words, Fang Xuanling smiled lightly: "It doesn't matter whether you believe it or not. The important thing is that I have made it very clear to them."

"If they want to die, no one can stop them."

"It's hard for the King of Hell to persuade a damn ghost."

"Besides, I never believed them."

Fang Xuanling said with a slight smile.

Who is Fang Xuanling?

This is a figure whose name has gone down in history, one of the outstanding figures who ascended the Lingyan Pavilion.

It's strange that such a person can easily trust others.

When Lu Bu heard this, his eyes lit up and he stood up directly, "When will we do it?"

"I, Lu Bu, have long wanted to kill these officials?"

"As imperial officials, they can't even manage the local area well, so what use are they?"

Lu Bu looked at Fang Xuanling with burning eyes.

Fang Xuanling shook his head; "Now is not the time. We will wait until you annihilate Xiaoyao King Zhou Qian and pacify Daizhou."

"These officials are not simple. Not only do they come from wealthy families, but their relationship with the local government is also complicated."

"If you touch them now, it will make it more difficult for you to annihilate Xiaoyao King Zhou Qian and pacify Daizhou."

Fang Xuanling knew that now was not the time to reorganize the officials.

We have to wait until Lu Bu annihilates Xiaoyao King Zhou Qian and pacifies Daizhou, and then start to rectify the officialdom and clean up the officialdom.

Otherwise, we should start rectifying the officials now.

It will arouse the resistance of the wealthy families. When the time comes, the wealthy families in Daizhou will definitely take precautions after seeing the situation in Yanzhou. Maybe they will also use all their strength to Lu Bu to annihilate King Xiaoyao and pacify Daizhou envoys.

son.

In that case, it will only add a lot of difficulties to Lu Bu's subsequent counterinsurgency.

It would be better to wait for Lu Bu to annihilate King Xiaoyao and pacify Daizhou before it is too late to start.

At that time, Lu Bu and his 100,000-strong army also freed up their hands.

It will be more stable and secure.

Fang Xuanling glanced at Lu Bu again: "Besides, when we really need to take action, we don't need you, the lieutenant general who commands an army of 100,000, to deal with some officials. You are just taking action just in case."

"It's enough to have Dongchang."

As soon as Fang Xuanling finished speaking, a figure walked in quietly.

"Master Fang is right. To deal with these officials, our Dongchang is enough."

Cao Shaoqin walked into the lobby, glanced at Lu Bu and Fang Xuanling, stretched out his hand and threw the two letters to Fang Xuanling and Lu Bu respectively; "This is some information that our Dongchang found out, except for the officials.

, and some situations about Zhou Qian, the Xiaoyao King of Daizhou."

"Master Fang and General Lu, please take a look!"

After Cao Shaoqin went to Dongchang to meet Cao Zhengchun that day, he took a thousand factory guards directly to the four northwest prefectures.

Earlier than Lu Bu.

Therefore, in the past few days, the factory guards have been moving around and found a lot of useful things.

After Fang Xuanling and Lu Bu received the two letters thrown by Cao Shaoqin, although they frowned a little at Cao Shaoqin's attitude, they didn't say anything.

After the two opened the letter, they read it.

When the two of them read the letter, they had different expressions.

Lu Bu had an indifferent attitude, although the letter contained some news about Zhou Qian, the Xiaoyao King of Daizhou.

But for Lu Bu, there really is no difference between having it and not having it.

With Lu Bu's strength, no matter how well Xiaoyao King Zhou Qian arranged it, how could he stop his Fang Tian Painted Halberd.

Fang Xuanling's face was a little cautious, because the things that the factory guards had found out these days were very useful.

If it weren't for Lu Bu to annihilate Xiaoyao King Zhou Qian and pacify Daizhou, Fang Xuanling would have started to rectify Yanzhou's officialdom now.

Because what the factory guards found out is enough to capture a group of officials in Yanzhou. If we dig deeper, we can definitely remove the carrots and bring out the mud, and rectify most of the Yanzhou officials.
