Chongzhen: I am the king of prosperous times

Li Yan, Niu Jinxing and the others are gone. Whether it is because of those small thoughts, or because they really want to save the people, their fate has changed.

"Let's wait for a while."

After Li Yan and the others left, Lu Xiangsheng sighed softly, then picked up an official letter, and began to read it with a solemn expression.

The current Lu Xiangsheng has too many things to do and solve, such as disaster relief, stability maintenance, investigation, power, and corruption...

The above-mentioned matters involve many levels and a wide range of groups. It cannot be resolved by just opening his mouth and saying a few words while wearing the official hat of Zhili governor.

Until Emperor Chongzhen speaks out about such good policies as government and gentry paying food and errands together, allocating food to the mu, and returning fire consumption to the public, the nature of many local situations will not change. Lu Xiangsheng, the governor of Zhili, It is necessary to pull a faction and fight a faction, so that he can be firmly seated in this position.

"I hope that the Tianxiong Army dispatched to Shandong can successfully resolve the matter of the remaining Bailian." Putting down the official letter in his hand, Lu Xiangsheng frowned slightly, and muttered: "The remnants of Bailian cannot be eradicated, and they are too harmful to the stability of the place, especially in Shandong. Over there, it is an important place for water transportation, so there must be no chaos."

Thinking of the military reports submitted by the various units of the Tianxiong Army he sent to various places during the disaster relief period, Lu Xiangsheng seemed to be in a bad mood.

The ability of Bailian's remnants to confuse and stir up people's sentiments is really too strong. In recent years, Henan, Shandong and other places where they are active have suffered from constant disasters, excessive levies and miscellaneous taxes, and a lot of three major salaries. If there is a major disaster, it will inevitably give birth to a rebellion.

In the current Daming, Shanxi, Shaanxi, and Liaodong, no substantial progress has been made in suppressing the rebellion. In other places, if there is a rebellion, it will have too much impact on the court.

"Your Majesty's decision is wise."

Lu Xiangsheng, who was in a mess of thoughts, looked at the official letter in front of him, and sighed softly: "If you want to stabilize the place, you have to catch it from the source.

Perhaps the occurrence of disasters cannot be changed by people.

However, before the disaster occurs, actively rectify the local government, renovate the water conservancy, and straighten the roads, so that we can truly prevent disasters before they happen.

Even if a disaster does happen, even if it involves a wide range, if the above-mentioned matters can be done well, at least the damage of the disaster can be mitigated. "

The Disaster Relief Office set up by Emperor Chongzhen, the Disaster Relief Office as it is known locally, is actually a very broad government office.

It may not be recognized by the civil servants of the Ming Dynasty, but as long as the top officials in one place grasp this matter, then many subsequent extended deployments can be completed step by step.

The act of disaster relief will be a main theme of governing and stabilizing the world for a long time to come.

After all, in the Little Ice Age, it is basically impossible to change this characteristic.

For a relatively long period of time in the past, Daming spent a lot of money on disaster relief, including repairing the river, but disasters should occur every year, and they still occur, and the disasters are often serious.

In the final analysis, it was the inaction of the local government, and the local officials used the disaster relief as a tool to make a fortune.

Natural disasters are not terrible.

Man-made disasters are the most terrifying!
If the disaster relief system established by Emperor Chongzhen can be effectively operated at the local level, if the idea of ​​labor-relief is clarified, disaster and famine preparations are actively prepared, and large-scale construction operations are organized, even if the disaster cannot be caused, its impact will disappear completely. , but at the very least it can reduce the impact, and the food and salaries consumed for disaster relief will inevitably be greatly reduced.

To do these things well, the most important thing is people. If the talent training of the disaster relief system can be gradually cultivated in the disaster relief and organizational construction time after time, the changes it will bring to Daming will be great. will show an increasing trend.

Lu Xiangsheng saw this essence.

"Governor, these are the investigations of Daming, Yongping, Shunde and other prefectures." Yan Yingyuan looked tired, walked into the office quickly with a stack of papers in his arms, and said to Lu Xiangsheng.

"Among them, in the directory of donating food and salaries for disaster relief, the students and others went through field visits and investigations to find out some of the guys who were doing evil and oppressing the people.

Before the Zhili Disaster Relief Office was established, these people and a group of illegal grain merchants secretly drove up the price of grain in order to annex land at a low price.

In the current situation of disaster relief in various places, although some order has been restored, in order to appease the hearts of the people and stabilize the local public opinion, these people must be brought to justice. "

Lu Xiangsheng not only did not get angry at Yan Yingyuan's many opinions when he came to the office, but on the contrary showed some approval.

"How do you think this matter should be handled?"

Lu Xiangsheng flipped through the files, bowed his head and said to Yan Yingyuan: "After all, the disaster relief situation in these prefectures and counties has only just been clarified.

If the Fu hastily took measures to arrest all these people, it would inevitably cause local instability, which would definitely have a greater impact on the decisions made by the Disaster Relief Administration. "

Yan Yingyuan was silent.

What the governor said is indeed a reality. After all, the people investigated have a lot of reputation in the local area, and all of them are well-off, and even some people have a lot of background behind them.

If you really want to take action rashly, if you catch your brains, it will inevitably cause more chaos in Zhili.

"Students think... can we catch a batch of models first?"

Yan Yingyuan thought for a while, then frowned and said, "It's a bit unrealistic to arrest all of them for crimes, but if we can arrest those who have committed the most crimes, it can also serve as a deterrent."

"Kill the chicken to warn the monkey?"

Lu Xiangsheng put down the copybook, looked up at Yan Yingyuan, and said with a smile: "This idea is good, but after all, there are some hidden dangers.

Ben Fu felt that it would be better to clarify the land of the prefecture first, and arrest all the people involved in it, using the excuse of ignoring the law and inciting civil unrest.

Instead of broadly catching some typical examples, it is better to do one thing with a clear stand, which can not only serve as a warning to the monkeys, but also keep the overall situation stable.

Let's make it in Quang Binh.

In a few days, Ben Fu will leave Daming Mansion and go to Guangping Mansion. This is an important point. If this matter can be done well, for the follow-up stability and order, actively prepare for disasters and famines, and ask the Disaster Relief Administration to promote the substitution of labor. Relief can play a vital role. "

After hearing these words, Yan Yingyuan thought carefully, his eyes opened slightly, and a little excitement appeared between his brows.

This meaning is indeed excellent.

Moreover, this place of Guangping Mansion is the place where Zhili was hit by the disaster this time, and it is the most serious place. If this matter can be done to the best, it can indeed play an excellent deterrent effect, which can play a role in promoting the subsequent matters. It works.
