Empress Xiaozhao

After the initial peace within the territory, Yu Chenglong also asked the villagers to train him in the military. He was willing to bear the consequences of "not serving next to each other but acting alone and succeeding in the army without amnesty", determined to die for the sake of his people even if it was worse than the miasma.

In fact, the main reason why the Luocheng was so hard to guard against thieves was not because the Luocheng's people were keeping an eye on themselves. It was because there were dozens of Liu City bandits living on Mang Shan northwest of Luocheng County City. A few years ago, due to the war, some of the Liu City's youths had been sent to Luocheng. However, these people did not pursue the topic, seeing the Luocheng seemed to be living a good life. Hence, when the idea of robbing houses rose in his mind, the Luocheng suffered a calamity.

After that, Luocheng was also affected by the flames of war, and with the addition of the bandits, the squire packed their bags and fled. Those who stayed in the Luocheng were just some commoners who had no money or power. This time, it was naturally bandits colluding with the commoners.

Now that he had an order from the government, coupled with the fact that this new county magistrate seemed to be someone who was not afraid of death. "After being threatened by bandits, Yu Chenglong remained like this. It's hard to tell from the new county magistrate that he has backbone. He's not like the old ones, he's completely weak when he's on the way. "

As the leader of the bandits, Ma Liu was only a escort before Mang Shan brought Yu Chenglong to his own territory. I'm afraid that the Yu is lacking some yamen runners, why don't we go down the mountain as well. Presumably, the Yu has an arrangement as well. "

"Big brother, you're saying that only by risking our lives and risking our lives can we have the hope that we have today. You can't just take everyone's life as a joke just because of this county magistrate, right?" Ma Liu thought about Yu Chenglong's courage and insight when he went up the mountain, and what he had said before he went down. Since ancient times, people do not fight with officials, and I think everyone knows about this. Thus, they just told the truth, the Luocheng does not allow bandits to exist. However, if there were more commoners, the Prefecture Overseer would not interfere.

The people did not fight with the officials, this was what Ma Liu cared about the most. From the initial probing to the mutual probing, to the final threatening showdown, Ma Liu knew that this was the difference between the government and the people. In the end, Ma Liu brought some of the people who were willing to follow him down the mountain to join Yu Shi Long.

The other part of the bandits, under the powerful momentum, the new head of the bandits, Qian En, made peace. The newly robbed wealth was returned. This was a great victory for the citizens. Even so, Yu Chenglong was not satisfied, so not all of the Python Mountain's bandits were annihilated. Yu Chenglong then tried to link up with the rest of the people in the whole county to defend them. From then on, the "neighbor thief" did not dare to do anything.

At the same time, Yu Chenglong paid great attention to recruiting refugees to resume production. This was also the reason why Yu Chenglong welcomed Ma Liu the last person to lead the former thief down the mountain. Because of the thieves, Luocheng County had very few citizens. After spending a year to convince the surrounding refugees that the Luocheng had truly changed, the Luocheng welcomed many citizens. Only with people can there be a good harvest in agriculture.

Yu Chenglong himself had grown crops before, and combined with the situation with the Luocheng, Yu Chenglong went back and forth between the county and the field. Since he was busy with farming, Yu Chenglong planted a plot of land himself just to take a look at the harvest. Peasant leisure time to lead the people to build homes, private school, construction of the city wall. To move into the new home of the farmers, also personally write couplets for the title, as a sign of encouragement.

After winning the hearts of the people, he also used the strategy of using rigidity and gentleness to solve the problem of "the negative influence of several surnames". Since the Luocheng was able to attract the attention of the common people, naturally there would be Squire staying here as well. However, no matter where the squire went, he would not be able to change the habits of an overlord. Yu Chenglong was naturally unwilling, in the end, he had to make use of methods to make these usually rebellious and untamed places be "obedient".

In Luo Cheng County, we adopted the method of "curing the chaos in this world, using a heavy ceremony". In the end, within six years after the World Dragon became an official in the Luocheng, we made the Luocheng escape from chaos, and obtained control over it. At that time, the Golden Light Ancestor, as the governor of both provinces, had learned of this matter and evaluated the Luocheng under Yu Chenglong as an example that could govern the entire province.

The result of this praise was naturally the promotion to an official. This time, Yu Chenglong had been promoted for six years, and he was recommended by Governor Goldlight to be the only "extraordinary" in Guangxi, and was promoted to Zhizhou, Hezhou. This was also the first time Yu Chenglong wrote a letter home after leaving home six years ago.

"Mom, this is a letter from father." As the eldest son of Yu Chenglong, Yu Ting Yi was the continuation of Yu Chenglong's hope. Although as a son he could not question his father's actions, but he still complained about his father's actions. Now, after leaving home for six years, his father finally wrote a letter.

"Your father finally knew that he had written a letter and left you three in the village just like that. If I didn't have a single letter from home, I'm afraid that no one would have sent me to the end." As his stepmother, the relationship between the Tian Clan and Yu Chenglong was also between a normal stepson and his stepmother. However, looking at Yu Chenglong's actions, Tian Shi still felt that the Yu Family had let their daughter-in-law down after looking at his for so many years without any complaints.

"Mother, Darling is just too busy. He doesn't really want us." But these past six years, Yu Chenglong had already been busy dealing with matters of the Luocheng in a state of chaos, let alone thinking about his stepmother and his wife and children. After being promoted to official, Yu Chenglong thought that his situation was better, so he arranged for Ma Liu to bring a few people to his side, preparing to bring his mother, wife and children to his side.

"Taking the Madam and the Old Madam is what we should do. Master, please rest assured that you can take over, when that time comes, we will send the Old Madam and the Old Madam to Old Master Hezhou in one piece." With Ma Liu's guarantee, Yu Chenglong headed for Hezhou to take over.

Yu Chenglong used three months of time to arrive at Hezhou, and the moment he saw Hezhou, Yu Chenglong thought about his first time in Luocheng six years ago. Similarly, the land was overgrown with weeds. Similarly, the people's lack of arable land was more chaotic.

"So, no one cultivates it because people get into trouble because of it." Yu Chenglong never thought that the situation he saw was one where the land was abandoned because of the farmland dispute. Because of this, Yu Chenglong spent half a month to observe the ploughed land in the Hezhou, and then strictly set the principle of "anything occupied shall become his own property, and shall not be debated afterwards".

"With the land, there will be no disputes over the farmland. Only then will the citizens be able to stay in Hezhou peacefully." In order to solve the problem of how there were so few people in Hezhou, Yu Chenglong once again used the method of plowing land to keep the refugees in Luocheng.

At the same time, the counties are required to pay attention to solving the specific difficulties in settlement and reclamation for the new dependent people, and to personally plan their farmhouses, register their registries, borrow cattle and declare that they will start their studies after three years. This way, the citizens who had just joined the Hezhou would know that farming could be done privately and did not need to rent from a landlord. At the same time, there was no need to worry about the lack of cattle and grain.

Once this policy was adopted, many of the refugees, upon hearing about it, entered the Hezhou Palace. Originally, the Hezhou had less than a thousand people. Because of such a good thing, more than a thousand people flowed into the Hezhou every month. Retirement rewards were the basic national policy in the early Qing Dynasty. In order to pacify the Hundred Sisters, the Imperial Court did not have strict control over cattle farming, on the one hand, and on the other hand, it was not as strict as it had been in the late Ming Dynasty.

Furthermore, when Yu Chenglong was reforming the Hezhou Palace, Yu Xingshi, who was also the Palace Mistress, had to interact with other Palace Mistresses as well. However, as an ordinary peasant woman who had stayed in the countryside for forty years, how could Yu Xingshi understand the meaning behind the words of those officials and wives? This must be the Prefect's wife. Why would she grow her own vegetables? Didn't the Prefecture have servants? "

"This time, the one who came to visit was the squire of the Hezhou, Madam Zhang." Looking at the Prefect's wife dressed in the clothes of a common peasant woman and looking at her vulgar appearance without even the slightest bit of self-knowledge, Mrs Zhang thought about her younger sister who was by her side. In terms of beauty, the Prefect's wife was already old, and her wrinkles were not as beautiful as her younger sister's.

Furthermore, with her figure and attire, Mrs. Zhang felt that her sister's dressing was pleasing to the eyes. This time, Mrs. Zhang came uninvited, in order to be able to betroth her little sister to the Prefect as an aunt. If your own sister can manage it well, it wouldn't be impossible for Yu Xingshi to invite himself to step down and become the successor wife. '

Mrs Zhang's calculations were made of 'ding ding ding', but she had forgotten that this normal woman didn't understand these twists and turns. So, Yu Xingshi, who originally brought his wife to grow vegetables together, naturally stood up to welcome them. Yu Chenglong was an official himself. Six years ago, the Luocheng County was a destitute, remote place, with very few Squire. Naturally, no one had any bad intentions towards him.

Now that he had arrived at Hezhou less than half a year ago, even if Yu Chenglong left early and returned late, those country bumpkins who came to visit Yu Chenglong would have to see whether or not the Prefecture had a Yu. So it was just like this: Yu Xingshi had been in Hezhou for three months, and other than the people from Prefecture, no one else knew that Yu had brought along his own family members to accompany him. However, Zhang Shi was not an ordinary person. They had already found a good relationship early on to understand that Yu Xingshi was Yu Chenglong's worthless wife.

Zhang Shi had seen it, how could this man not enjoy and dislike beautiful women? In the past, Yu did not have any beautiful women by his side, but that was because the conditions did not allow it. But the situation was different now. Yu was the State of Zhi, how could they not have two trusted people by their side?

"I am truly sorry for the intrusion today. I'm afraid I have disturbed Madam." Although the Zhang family looked down on Yu Xingshi, they still had the attitude of looking down on him. After all, this was the Prefecture; this Yu Xingshi was the official wife of the Prefect. This woman has never seen this lady before. I wonder what his name is? " Yu Xingshi was not stupid, seeing that the beautiful lady had come to the residence to visit, but no one reported his, making things somewhat complicated.

It's like this, because I didn't know that you, Madam, were in Prefecture for a while, I didn't come to visit. Saying so, naturally, there was someone behind Zhang who presented the gift. However, whether it was Yu Xingshi or the two daughter-in-law behind him, none of them stepped forward.
