Back in Xiangyang, Wang Xiaoli prepared ships for Ji Ling and others, took care of food and grass, and issued official documents to various places downstream, which delayed for more than ten days. In April, several people officially set off.

At the Hanshui Wharf, Wang Xiaoli sent others to send Ji Ling and others back to the government office and suddenly felt much more relaxed. To be honest, although the etiquette of receiving Ji Ling and others was thoughtful, it was not particularly respectful. At this time, the imperial officials were in the local area and had no previous status. It was good that Wang Xiaoli could protect everyone's face in etiquette.

After a while of rest, Wang Xiaoli called Chen Yuyi and asked Ji Ling about his actions in Xiangyang. He was nothing more than traveling around and drinking at the restaurant run by the government from time to time, and lived a free and easy life. He did not have much contact with the officials of Xiangyang Prefecture.

It was late April that there was a sudden edict. After receiving the edict, I realized that the Miao and Liu mutiny had been pacified. It was impossible to know about Wang Xiaoliu, but only know that it was a large army approaching. Miao Fu and Liu Zhengyan were in a panic and agreed to let Zhao Gou restore the throne. The two were appointed as the commander-in-chief and deputy commander of Huaixi, and there was no big battle between the two sides. However, it seemed that the overall situation had been decided.

Wang Xiaolie was officially appointed as the commander of Jingxi Road, which was considered to be a formal magistrate. However, what surprised Wang Xiaolie was that Wang Ruohai was appointed as the prison of Jingxi Road and was also the governor of Dengzhou.

Looking at the imperial edict, Wang Xiaolie was stunned for a while. It was not surprising that he was officially appointed. The court has no ability to control the current Jingxi Road, so he can only appoint local powerful figures. But it is interesting that Wang Ruohai issued a punishment for Jingxi Road.

At this time, the position of the commander was very high. In theory, it was higher than that of the commander, recruiting the commander, pacifying the commander, etc., and the military power in the local area was second only to that of the Xuanfu commander. However, the court also had an order to remove the power of the commander in charge of civil affairs and only control the troops. The prison of the commander was a government official, which was not in the same position as the commander. At the road level, the commander was second only to the transferee.

After careful consideration, Wang Xiaolie understood the meaning of the imperial court's appointment. He sent Wang Ruohai to him, but he was still unwilling to hand over the affairs of these states to Wang Xiaolie. Wang Ruohai took office, and Chen Qiudao, who was in Ezhou, could also take office, so he took back the civil affairs of Jingxi South Road. At this time, there was no official transfer envoy. Chen Qiudao and Wang Ruohai took office, and from the official position, they could master civil affairs.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaolie couldn't help but shake his head. It's impossible to say that the court was wrong in doing this. At this time, it was just the chaos in the southeast, and there were only a small group of thieves in other places. In the eyes of court officials, these places could still be controlled.

Can you really control it? Wang Xiaolie didn't believe it. According to the memory of his previous life, the world was in chaos, and the Miao and Liu mutiny was just the beginning. Next, the Jin Kingdom searched mountains and seas, and the group of thieves in Kaifeng Prefecture went south to move south.

Thinking of this, Wang Xiaoli stood up and looked out the window.

This is a chaotic world, and the most important thing is the army. With the army, there is everything, and there is no need to be distracted from the rest. After thinking for a long time, Wang Xiaolei made up his mind not to get too entangled with Wang Ruohai. He came to do the punishment, so he would leave the punishment prison to him, and the other things would be his own. Chen Qiudao is the same. When he comes, Wang Xiaolei treats him with courtesy and stays idle.

Five days later, Wang Ruohai's ship arrived at the Hanshui Wharf, and Wang Xiaoli personally greeted him.

Wang Ruohai got off the boat. Wang Xiaoli stepped forward and saluted: "I don't want us to see each other again after less than a month of separation."

Looking at Wang Xiaoli, Wang Ruohai said helplessly: "I have to obey the imperial edict of the court. But to be honest, according to my wishes, I really don't want to return to the control here again. I probably don't have the opportunity to do this criminal prosecutor."

Wang Xiaolie smiled and said, "What's the difficulty? Since the prison in charge is here, I'll leave all the prisons in this state to you in the future."

Wang Ruohai sighed softly and said nothing. He accompanied Wang Xiaoli to Xiangyang Prefecture.

When he sat in the official hall, Wang Ruohai said: "When the Jin army came two years ago, the officials from the Criminal Department fled. If I went to Dengzhou to take office, there would be no one to use it. I wonder what the controller thought? Can you send some people to my hands to do things?"

Wang Xiaolei said: "If you think about Xing, you must be fine. But my subordinates are afraid that they will not be as good as the intention of Xing. You should recruit yourself and be able to be able to be able to do it with your own help. If there is no one for the time being, just recruit slowly."

Wang Ruohai thought for a long time before nodding and said, "I understand. Also, Niu Gao is the one who governs Dengzhou now. If I go, what should Niu Gao do? Can the officials and troops in Dengzhou be used now?"

Wang Xiaoli thought for a while, looked at Wang Ruohai and said, "Ti Xing, I will tell you clearly. Since I entered Xiangyang Prefecture last year, the political affairs of the prefectures in this area have changed a lot, including Dengzhou. If Ti Xing does not make any major changes, everything will be fine. Do you want to change?"

After hearing this, Wang Ruohai looked serious and said, "The new imperial edict has been implemented by the Renzong law. The Jiayou system is different from the current one, except for the official system and service laws, the rewards are given priority and the treaties are lenient. How can we, as ministers, violate the will of the court?"

Wang Xiaoli shook his head gently and said, "Ti Xing, during the Jiayou period, the world was peaceful, how could it be compared with the present? Now there are Jin troops watching and thieves and rioters in the middle. We must put all our strength and energy as much as possible to strengthen the army. Civil affairs must be as simple as possible, both the government and the people have fewer troubles. The imperial court's will is naturally correct, but we must govern the local area according to reality."

Wang Ruohai didn't say anything, and looked at Wang Xiaoli. After a long time, he said, "When saying this, is the states not allowed to change?"

Wang Xiaoli nodded: "How much energy did I spend today and how many people died? How can I change everything if I give up the punishment? If so, how can I win the trust of the people? How can I bring people? I don't need to talk about this matter."

Wang Ruohai said: "What if I must change?"

Wang Xiaoli said lightly: "Why do you come to Xiangyang alone? In this extraordinary time, I advise Ti Xing not to have such thoughts. For the criminal prison under the rule, Ti Xing should be more attentive. It is better to interfere in other matters less."

Wang Ruohai took a deep breath and said, "I understand. According to the meaning of the control, you are not allowed to interfere here."

Wang Xiaoliu said: "How can I say this? Of course I will listen if it makes sense. Of course I won't listen if it doesn't make sense. Yizu once said that the truth in the world is the most reasonable. As long as there is reason, nothing can't be changed."

Seeing that Wang Ruohai looked bad, Wang Xiaolei said: "Okay, I have understood my attitude towards Tizheng. Tizheng is understandable. I hope I don't make it difficult for me. You come today. I have prepared a banquet in the back yamen to welcome you. Please give me a reward."

Wang Ruohai shook his head repeatedly: "Helping the wind? Today we are not arguing, what kind of wind? In fact, I was in Xinye a month ago and saw that the control was not a good minister. The court asked me to do a punishment, but I didn't want to come, but I had to come. Since the control refused to give in, I could only do this punishment with grievance. How can I eat this reception banquet?"

Wang Xiaolie laughed when he heard this: "Ti Xing, no matter whether you are happy or not, it is all official business. Official affairs are official affairs, and private affairs are private affairs, don't take them to heart. If you come to take office, I will naturally hold a banquet."

Wang Ruohai looked at Wang Xiaoli, and couldn't figure out what kind of person he was. If he said he was unjust, but he did not act as unjust, he tried his best to obey the will of the court. He said he was a loyal minister and he would openly disobey the imperial edicts that violated his own ideas.

After thinking for a long time, Wang Ruohai said, "I'm so disturbed."

Wang Xiaoli nodded and said nothing.

Wang Xiaoliu has his own way of training troops and how to manage the local area. How can an official change if he comes? At this time, the court actually had no way to use a local powerhouse like himself. It was actually the inertia of sending officials. When the court slowly recognizes the facts, it will naturally have corresponding actions.

As for whether Zhao Gou was suspicious, Wang Xiaolie didn't think about it at all. No matter how he did, could he still be more loyal than Yue Fei in history? Even if he tried his best to show, he would not make Zhao Gou believe in himself more than Yue Fei. After all, the result depends on Zhao Gou. What he wanted was to resolutely resist the Jin Northern Expedition and give the people a bright world. Zhao Gou did it, but Wang Xiaolie naturally had nothing to say. If he couldn't do it, Wang Xiaolie would not be called to the court by Zhao Gou like Yue Fei and died of a coward.
