Emperor Taizong's Growth Plan

Chapter 354 Please Seal Lushui Dragon King
After the Buddhist monks resigned, Xiao Cheng's voice sank, and he continued to ask:
"Over there at the East Factory, has there been an arrangement?"

Feng Bao bowed his body and carefully replied:
"Tubo is called unified, but in fact, most of the local tribes divide and rule. Abandoned Nieqi gathered the royal power, many tribes were removed by him, and the people were brought under his command, so it was easy to install people. The slaves under the servants have already A lot of manpower has been developed in the cities of Duluo, the king of Tubo."

Xiao Cheng nodded and said:

"Where's Tian Zhu?"

Speaking of Tianzhu, Feng Bao lowered his head slightly and confessed:

"Please forgive me, Your Majesty, there is still no progress in Tianzhu... In Tianzhu, there are more than a dozen countries, large and small, and due to constant conquests, they are very guarded against each other, so the progress is not fast!"

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng was not in a hurry, but said in a deep voice:
"It's okay, this Tianzhu can take his time."

Although the land of Tianzhu has a large area and a large population, how can it compare to the wealth of the Central Plains?Even if you want to make up your mind, you have to be ranked after Xia Guo!
And at this time, I suddenly heard a palace official report outside the Hall of Mental Cultivation:

"Qizou Your Majesty, Chief Secretary of Jianchang Mansion, here is a secret document!"

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng frowned, and said in a deep voice:
"Yang Yanhe?"

Among the chief ministers of the Jianchang Mansion, Yang Yanhe, who was granted the right to perform secret performances by Xiao Chengte, also went to Beijing to serve as the chief political envoy.

【Blue check card, secret book system

Today's Yang Yanhe, although nominally only serving as the chief envoy of the Jianchang Mansion, but in fact, General Anbei is in charge of the supply of food and grass for the soldiers and horses, and all the government affairs and affairs of Xinde Jiangyang County. , can be said to be a local official who appeases one side.

Facing the secret document that Yang Yanhe handed over suddenly, Xiao Cheng did not dare to be negligent, and immediately said:
"Bring it up!"

"Yes."

The palace attendant, holding the secret box in his hand, walked quickly into the hall, bent down and knelt down, only to lift the secret box in his hand high.

The mechanism of the secret box carefully crafted by the Mo family, forcibly opening it will only touch the mechanism and damage the secret box and the secret folder inside.There are only two keys that can open it, one is on Xiao Cheng's side, and the other is in the hands of the minister who granted the right to secret rehearsal.

The palace servants who served personally at the side quickly took out the key kept in the Hall of Mental Cultivation, opened the secret box, took out the memorial, and carefully handed it to Xiao Cheng.

Xiao Cheng took it, and quickly opened it to look through it.

The things mentioned in the secret book are not important.It's just that Yang Yanhe reported the political gains and losses of the past few months, and gave Xiao Cheng a work summary report.

Because of the military chaos and plague, Jiangyang County, no, it should be said that the entire six counties in the southwest have suffered a lot.

After great chaos, great order is inevitable.With the help of the frontier troops stationed there, Yang Yanhe distributed the unowned land to the displaced people, donated grain seeds, and built houses, and completely stabilized the situation smoothly.

During the memorial, Yang Yanhe also stated that the southwestern land now relies on the army to maintain the place.Temporary emergencies are acceptable, but it is not possible to form a routine. Therefore, officials from the DPRK and China should be transferred as soon as possible to serve in local areas so that local government agencies can operate as soon as possible.

Seeing this, Xiao Cheng couldn't help shaking his head slightly, and said with a wry smile:

"Where are there still people..."

Such is the consequence of swallowing a big country with a small country.

The land of the newly obtained four counties is one-third the size of Yun Country.With such a large territory, the number of officials needed is not a small number!

Even after Xiao Cheng came to the throne, he set up Jixia Academy to recruit students from hundreds of schools, and held imperial examinations every year, but the manpower in the court was still not enough.

Previously, even the newly established important institutions such as the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies were unable to provide all the officials.To be able to barely support the prestige of the local government in the four southwest counties is to do our best.

This is naturally the reason why Xiao Cheng ordered the frontline troops to suspend the offensive!

After having a headache for a while, Xiao Cheng could only rub his eyebrows, and said helplessly:
"The Ministry of Rites ordered that each school in Jixia Academy, Lumen Academy, and local government-run academies recommend a scholar to be recruited into the imperial court. In addition, a message was sent to Zhang Hong, the Ministry of Officials, Let the newly recruited Jinshi who listen to the government in the court be given official positions in advance. Select some capable officials from the local government and go to Jiangyang, Hechi, Xiangzhou, and Dejiang to serve in the four counties!"

"Yes!" Feng Bao hurriedly answered, went to the outer hall to find a cabinet specially prepared for Xiao Cheng, and began to draw up and polish the imperial edict.

Xiao Cheng continued to pick up the secret book in his hand, glanced at it again, and saw another matter mentioned in Yang Yan and the secret book, suddenly frowned, looked at Feng Bao, and asked:
"Wailang Li Bing, a member of the Ministry of Industry, Dushuiqing, was ordered by me to build a bridge over the Minjiang River. It failed a while ago? You Dongchang, have you not received any news?"

Hearing this, Feng Bao subconsciously glanced at the secret booklet in Xiao Cheng's hand, and replied:
"Return to Your Majesty, of course I have received it!"

"Why didn't you report to me?"

Feng Bao quickly explained:
"Your Majesty forgive me, because the bridge has just been built, and the six foundations of the poured bridge have all collapsed. At the right time, a Taoist Li Chunfeng appeared, saying that there were dragons in the river, and the rumors among the people on both sides of the river became more and more popular! The subordinates thought it was too absurd. Li Bing, a member of the Ministry of Industry, was suspected of fabricating rumors to get rid of the crime, so he secretly investigated and did not dare to report to His Majesty immediately..."

Hearing this, Xiao Cheng frowned slightly, nodded with a half-smile and said:

"Well, is that so?"

Cold sweat broke out on Feng Bao's forehead, and he buried his head firmly, not daring to lift it up.

The following Dongchang fanzi, who didn't know the great changes in the world, heard that Jiaolong was alive, and felt that it was ridiculous, so they didn't report it immediately, but launched an investigation secretly. They were fulfilling their duties and fulfilling their duties.

But Feng Bao is a little different. People who have seen the auspicious beast unicorn with their own eyes should be very sensitive to this kind of talk about the existence of dragons!
Xiao Cheng did not doubt that Feng Bao had any different intentions, but considering the fact that Wen Tiren offered the auspicious beast unicorn and thus received a reward from Xiao Chengen, Feng Bao must have such a desire to seek a reward in his heart, so he thought about it After the investigation is clear, I will report the good news to Xiao Cheng for a reward.

"In the future, don't do this!" Xiao Cheng said casually.

Feng Bao pursed his dry lips and said in a trembling voice:

"Slave, remember!"

Xiao Cheng shook the secret folder in his hand again, and said:
"Li Bing wrote a letter to ask for the imperial decree of the Dragon King of Lujiang. Yang Yanhe felt that it was absurd for such a matter to be discussed in the court, so he stopped the memorial. I have said that if the canonization of Lushui Dragon King can stabilize the public opinion of the people on both sides of the strait, it will also reflect the court's love for the people, you can try it, let's draw up an order together!"

Feng Bao wanted to persuade Xiao Cheng, don't promulgate the imperial decree first, otherwise the bridge will not be built, I'm afraid it will lose face.But because of his careful thinking before, Feng Bao didn't dare to continue to stop him, so he could only reply hesitantly:

"……Yes!"

But Xiao Cheng didn't have Feng Bao's worries at all.The main reason is that the idea of ​​conferring Lushui Dragon King was proposed by Li Chunfeng!

After the great changes in the world, the study of luck has become mysterious and mysterious, with endless mysteries.So don't look at Li Chunfeng, Yuan Tiangang, Yixing and others, they are just characters summoned by the blue training card, and their attributes are also average.

But the three of them are all proficient in metaphysics, with this blessing, they are not much different from Liu Bowen, who was thousands of miles away and cut Xia Guolong's spirit, in terms of the number of methods!
