Two hundred and ninetieth chapters behind the scenes trade-offs

The prefect of Lijun is back.

What he came back with was news of two major victory in the southern Xinjiang battlefields, Taiming City and Baitong City, so the entire city left the city was in full bloom.

What can be more reassuring news when you are in a border county than a great victory on the border?

But for the literati and military people who rushed to Licheng from all over Zhongzhou to participate in the civil and military performance, what is more important is the small incident that happened on the southern suburbs of Licheng this day. Where every word said by this legendary young prefect spread and fermented among them.

Most of the light cavalry left the county returned to the cavalry city, but there were still thousands of people led by Luo Changgong who followed Luo Chuan back to the prefect's palace as usual, and took over the defense work inside and outside the palace from the palace guards.

Gao Shixian, the only senior minister in the prefect's palace, has no objection to this kind of violation of the rules. He just instructed the palace guards and the palace servants to obey.

After Luochuan's car frame slowly entered the palace, he did not go to the harem, but instead stopped in front of the front palace hall. He got out of the carriage, looked at the square in front of the hall, nodded at Gao Shixian, who had been waiting by the carriage, walked to the highest stairs and sat down, looked at the direction of the palace gate, and asked the shadow behind him, "Do you think Lu Tieshan took Lu Sifan to run from Taiming City while Lu Dongfeng was away?"

Shadow nodded, "It seems that we are coming to Licheng, our people will follow us, and Lu Dongfeng's people will follow us."

Siqi stood behind Luochuan and pointed to the official road outside the palace.

Gao Shixian lowered his head slightly, looked at Siqi without any trace, then looked at Luo Chuan's side face, and lowered his head.

"Come on the way, be careful not to let them have any problems," Luo Chuan sighed, not knowing what to say for a moment, so he had to take one step at a time.

Siqi suddenly pointed to the distance and said, "Here, someone is here."

With Luo Chuan's eyesight now, he naturally saw it, but the first person who came was not the general Luo Jiang, who had imagined as he had been in the imagination, but Mu Zeyan, who is now temporarily appointed as the adjutant of the Lijun Silu.

The Silu Mansion is in the front yard of the courtyard where the county magistrate was originally located, not far from the prefect's palace. The high-ranking official who can now rank in the court of the county is here alone. He doesn't even have a personal guard or servant around him. He just checked into the prefect's palace and walked to the five steps in front of Luochuan in a hurry and stopped, bowing, "Minister Mu Zeyan, pay homage to the prefect."

"No need to be polite," Luochuan smiled at Mu Zeyan, who always had a serious face, "Zeyan, it's probably because you were alone again after you came to the city a few days ago, right?"

"I am now working in the Leave the County Lieutenant Office, and ordinary people are probably afraid to avoid it," Mu Zeyan said a little faster. "I have heard about the things that the prefect encountered outside the southern suburbs. I came to ask the civilians from other places what should be dealt with?"

Luo Chuan turned his eyes to the direction of the palace gate and asked casually, "In your opinion, what should those people do?"

Mu Zeyan's eyes lowered and said slowly, "Those who despise the law in front and hit the prefect behind should be punished severely, and the first offender should be beheaded to serve as a warning to others."

Siqi couldn't help but widen her eyes when she heard this, she wanted to say something but couldn't speak. She just stared at the back of Luo Chuan's head with her lips pursed.

Luo Chuan ignored Mu Zeyan's statement, and said something else as if he was changing the topic. "Zeyan, when I was in southern Xinjiang, I only focused on two things besides the Nanyi incident. One was the war between Guangjun invasion of Anling and Sancang, and the other was the civil and military service. When I returned to Licheng this time, even the general Luo Jiang of Licheng had not known it in advance, but when I arrived at the southern suburbs, he happened to encounter such a thing..." He looked at Mu Zeyan and paused word by word, "Some people are so anxious to get an answer from me?"!"

Mu Zeyan didn't look up, frowned slightly and said bluntly, "Sir, this matter should not be done by the court officials of the county."

"Of course not, otherwise I would only let Yan Bingyu and the children who were exploited by others go home and get whipped?" Luo Chuan sneered, "But if you say that the person behind this incident is just under their noses, the court officials in the yard of my county are blind and can't see or understand... They think I'm an idiot?!"

Mu Zeyan sighed and bowed, "Don't rest as angry..."

Luo Chuan looked at Luo Jiang who was walking in from the main gate of the prefect's palace and snorted, "Zeyan, since you are the lonely man, I have to tell them some of my own truths about Luo Chuan for me. Zhao Wuji can be the county magistrate, and Chen Jingzhi can be the general if he has made contributions. Yan Bingyu can participate in the civil and military ceremony that is close to him, and Lu Wenchang can also participate. Instead of worrying about those who have nothing, it is better to let the family in Ganyuan find a few good seedlings from even the side branches. Now Lijun is a temple with small waters that can't accommodate them? On the contrary, there are a lot of official positions and fertile fields there, and their unsatisfied descendants are useless!"

"So you ask me what to do with those civilians from other places?" Luo Chuan patted the dust on his sleeves indifferently, "If it were Yan Bingyu and the others, they would deal with them, and the civilians from other places would deal with them."

Mu Zeyan stood up and saluted, turning around and leaving, passing by Luo Jiang in armor without saying hello.

Luo Jiang, who was climbing the steps, couldn't help but look back at Mu Zeyan in surprise, and then came up to ask Luo Chuan, "What's wrong with Lord Mu? Look at him with a lot of worries."

"General Luo, please worry about your own affairs. No matter how much you have, Lord Mu can do things more beautifully than you," Luo Chuan said angrily.

Luo Jiang looked at Luo Chuan a little embarrassed, and looked at the high wall on the side of the palace with both hands behind his back, "You don't tell me how the battle was when you were in southern Xinjiang, and now I don't tell me that Licheng has come back. Now the people inside and outside Licheng are complicated, and I have to transfer half of the soldiers on my hands to Taiming, and there is really no way..."

Luo Chuan didn't blame him anymore, but just asked, "Now there is still more than a month before the civil and military examinations will be announced. Can there be many people coming from all over the city?"

"There are so many, why aren't there too many?" Luo Jiang stood in front of Luochuan and looked down at him, "Jingzhou, Wuzhou, Jiangzhou, Changzhou, there are all from Jingzhou, and relatively speaking, it seems that there are more people coming from Wuzhou, but more people are still in our southwest Hanzhou, especially in the area of ​​Hanoi County. Of course, the most are the young people from all over the county, among which Sancangdi and Anling. Among these people, the scholars are better, but the warriors have to do more things. Just like today, there will definitely be friction when they get together."

Luo Chuan pondered for a moment and did not think deeply, but looked up at Luo Jiang and said, "Bo Jiang, after Qin Ao retired and returned home, all three of his generals retreated. Needless to say, Lu Yinbao, now there is no general in the city army. I am willing to choose two deputys for you. Do you have a suitable candidate in your heart?"

Luo Jiang nodded without thinking, "There is one!"
