I want to be a good minister

Chapter 548
Although Sheriff Liang had thought of something, he wasn't sure, because of such a thing, he, a little sheriff, couldn't make the decision, and if he couldn't do it, he might fall into someone else's hands.

So, the next moment, Governor Liang shook his head slowly in his heart. Maybe he was wrong. Her Royal Highness has just left the customs to take over the political affairs. If the king said this, it might make Governor Liang even more excited.

but……

Sheriff Liang still looked passionate and bowed respectfully.

"Your Majesty must follow Her Majesty the Holy Maiden." Han Shangshu and the others who knelt down were equally excited. At this moment, Han Shangshu heaved a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he was a little more passionate about this first time seeing Her Majesty the Holy Maiden. enthusiasm.

Her Majesty the Holy Maiden was able to come to the southern border in person, and in such a situation, knowing the situation, she was able to lower her status in time to avoid Liang County Governor's beheading order, which Han Shangshu never thought about.

He said, this Liang Junshou has a big face, although he is so thin now that only a handful of bones are left, but the bones are there, it is a sign of wealth, integrity and longevity, and he will never be so short-lived.

Cen Xi avoided everyone's ceremony, and immediately made a decision to arrange the accompanying team into the county government office. Just waiting for them to settle down, Cen Xi had already started to get busy.

Now if you go to ask for relief food, you can only drink poison to quench your thirst. Cen Xi sent back half of Zongli's redeployed relief food in time, and the rest of the relief food will arrive in two days. But how many people will die in these two days, Cen Xi Xi knew in his heart that if he could get the food a moment earlier, he could save many lives.

At this moment, the fastest way to get food can only be found locally.

Cen Xi didn't know if there was any food in the area, but someone did.

Zhenli County is not poor, and the droughts in previous years have been able to pass smoothly. That is because there are many wealthy families, business gentry, and landlords in Zhenli County. Taking the opportunity to drive up prices, there is a lot of grain in his hands.

It's just turning around, no one wants to stand out, but wants to keep the family's eternal prosperity.Therefore, at this moment, all the large households with food have secretly transported the food to a safe place, and only waited for the war or drought to pass and start over.

Cen Xi's solution was to get food from these people first. This idea coincided with that of the Governor of Liang, but due to the war, all the troops had already transported the food to the western border, and the Governor of Liang did not have enough troops to fight against these big clans.

But Cen Xi didn't think armed confrontation was the best way. After all, these families were the hope for the reconstruction of Zhenli County in the future, and the inability to resist would make the big families in other counties and counties even more xenophobic.

An hour later, Governor Liang hurried over, still wearing the same patched shirt, the hem of which was mixed with mud and the color of the official robe could no longer be seen.

But Cen Xi didn't care, and Governor Liang didn't care either.

"Your Highness—" Liang Junshou's voice was excited but restrained, "These are the eighteen most powerful clans in our Zhenli County. If they take action, the matter of disaster relief food can be easily solved." Liang Junshou looked at it subconsciously. A glance at the moon-white figure in the room.

If it weren't for the shit luck this time, an official of his level wouldn't have had the chance to see His Majesty, let alone Her Majesty the Holy Maiden, but the Governor of Liang didn't dare to really look at it, as if he was afraid that his eyes would desecrate this god-like existence Your Highness and Your Majesty.

It is said that the king's appearance was chosen by heaven, now that the previous disguise has faded away, sitting in this room now, it seems that all the utensils and furnishings in the room are covered with dust.

It's not that Junshou Liang has never heard of some legends, saying that His Royal Highness woke up and doted on the king very much. Junshou Liang felt that this was true. Such a monarch would be favored by anyone.

"Zongli——" Cen Xi looked at the map in his hand and the introductions of the various clans, and subconsciously called Zongli.

Zongli approached. From the beginning to now, he disagreed with this idea. They are in Zhenli County. If these big clans are moved, the situation in Zhenli County will be shaken even more. And these big clans are like Zhenli County now. As long as you follow along, once the drought is over, these big clans can still support the prosperity of Zhenli County. Now for these people...

But seeing the excited woman in front of him, Zong Li never objected.

Just because of her love, so what?
Zong Li stepped forward, stretched out his hand and shook the back of the woman's hand first, his finger bones felt cool, this Governor of Liang did not do things properly, and he didn't even think about it carefully.

"What are you going to do, Your Highness?" Zong Li said slowly, now he wanted to get a few cuts, Zong Li scanned a few names, and he knew it in his mind.

The forces of loyal ministers and General Ling cannot be moved, and neither can the civil servants on the front line. We must balance the power of the court and maintain a balance of strength.

Then there are only a few big families that look strong, but these are just starting out, or they are old, and they have already become empty shelves, sticking to their old roots to maintain their former prestige.

"Zong Li, is there any way to arrest the heads of several big clans without injury?" Cen Xi spoke slowly, thinking.

Zong Li was taken aback, and Liang County Sheriff was also taken aback, His Highness is going to do everything?
"Your Highness, are you going to leave the whole family?" Zong Li said, thinking about the consequences in his heart, it's not impossible, it can be regarded as a blow to these people, and secretly keep a few...

"Stay, stay. I didn't want to catch them all. I just wanted to make a deal with them. Whether I am willing to make a deal with me or not, I won't hurt their lives—" Cen Xi grabbed Zhu Zongli wanted to withdraw his hand, warmed his own hand very naturally, raised his head and raised his eyebrows, and followed Zongli beside him with a smile, his white-toothed lips instantly moved the heart of the man in front of him.

deal—

This idea was beyond Zongli's expectation. Is it the national debt thing?
It's not impossible, after all, these people still rely on the Great Jing Kingdom, so they can give it a try.

"Leave this matter to me, Governor Liang, pick a few people who are familiar with the terrain and the situation, and then gather in the yard—" Zong Li turned his head and ordered.

Sheriff Liang immediately withdrew. In this situation, he didn't dare to stay even if he wanted to, but he didn't dare to leave without His Highness's order.

Did he see something he shouldn't see? This is the daily relationship between His Highness and Junshang?It's like, like a newly married couple, His Highness is very kind to the emperor, and even the address is more intimate than ordinary couples.

Sheriff Liang shook his head, not daring to think about it anymore, but flew to the warehouse to pick someone out.

Cen Xi waited patiently all night, and early the next morning, he received the news that everyone on the list had been arrested, and now they were gathered in one place for guarding.

"Chun Pavilion?" Cen Xi raised his eyebrows, what place is not easy to choose, why go to the Spring Pavilion?She naturally knows what the spring pavilion is for.

"Nowadays, there are only a few businesses in Zhenli County that are normally open. The owner of the Chunguan is quite familiar with Liang County Sheriff. He has a life-long friendship and is considered a reliable person. Now is an extraordinary time and an extraordinary move." Zongli explained. , I didn't think there was anything wrong with the arrangement in the Spring Hall.

Cen Xi nodded, the Spring Pavilion should be the Spring Pavilion, after all, it is a place.
