When Li Yuanai's official ship was about to arrive in Suzhou, Lou Shide handed over his test paper.

It is different from Liu Rengui, Shangguan Yi, and Di Zhixun.

Lou Shide did not write his reading notes and said bluntly: "I have been chatting with Brother Liu, Brother Di, Brother Shangguan and Brother Lu these days, and found that these three colleagues are all top-notch good people. Brother Liu is amazing and talented, both civil and military. Brother Di is a good country and is very stable. As for Brother Shangguan and Brother Lu, he is really a literary and unparalleled figure."

"What kind of teacher ethics can do? He can actually work with these heroes. They have thoroughly analyzed the written situation in Jiangnan. The teacher ethics is far less than theirs, so they will not show their ugliness in front of the palace."

Seeing Lou Shide's modest look, Li Yuanai suddenly thought of an idiom that he was spitting on his face.

What I am talking about is Lou Shide in front of me.

Lou Shide and his civil and military affairs were used to fight against the Tubo army with Baishuijian. They won eight battles and eight victories. They gained the favor of Li Zhi and thus rose to the temple. Wu Zetian bullied his son, usurped the throne, and promoted Lou Shide to the prime minister. Then he appointed Lou Shide's younger brother as the governor of Daizhou.

Before leaving, Lou Shide said to his younger brother worriedly, "You and my brothers, one is prime minister and the other is governor. If they are too honored and favored, they will definitely attract jealousy. How can they save their lives?"

Brother Lou said: "Doing things in a low-key manner. Even if someone spits at me, I won't retaliate. Just wipe the spit dry and never let my brother make things difficult for me."

But Lou Shide said a famous saying: "This is exactly what I worry about the most. People spit on your face, which shows that they are angry. If you wipe the spit, it means that you are dissatisfied and will make them even more angry. You should accept it with a smile, so that the spit will be dry without wiping it."

This is Lou Shide's nature. Even if his colleagues and court officials have a lower status than him, they will be timid.

Facing his colleagues, Lou Shide gave in and stopped competing with them.

Thinking of this, Li Yuanai shook his head and smiled slightly.

This kind of person may not have a temper, but he is undoubtedly the most suitable person to hang out in the temple.

There are not many people who can retire from Wu Zetian's temple and die of old age, but Lou Shide is one of them.

Li Yuanai realized Lou Shide's nature and stopped caring about it. Instead, he looked at Lou Shide's opinions seriously.

"If you want to govern Jiangnan, the most important thing is to destroy the lewd sacrifices in all directions. Jiangnan lives in a corner, far away from the center of the temple, and does not accept the king's transformation. The style of Confucius and Mencius is not popular among the people. Because of the miserable life, they place hope and the elusive gods and Buddhas, and even demons in various places are caused by demons. The superstition is everywhere, from the prefectures to the villages and counties."

Li Yuanai looked solemn.

Lust sacrifice is not a literal lust sacrifice. Lust also means indulgence, excessive, excessive, improper, and improper regulation.

A lewd sacrifice is an excessive and unruly sacrifice.

The Tang Dynasty always adopted a tolerant attitude towards faith, and did not force people to believe in national religion or restrict others from believe in religion.

Free and open speech and thought are the symbol of the Tang Dynasty.

Everything has two sides. Too much freedom means that illegal people can get loopholes.

The prosperous and prosperous land under the emperor's feet is not very noticeable, but it is particularly common in remote places like Jiangnan.

In the Jiangnan newspapers, Li Yuanai seemed to have read a similar situation.

Just didn't care too much.

After all, as a southerner in later generations, there were many beliefs in various ways, and no problems occurred.

But now Lou Shide said it, how could Li Yuanai not know what that means?

"Is this problem of lewd sacrifice really so serious?"

Li Yuanai looked solemn.

Lou Shide said: "In addition to the temples of Confucius and Mencius, as well as Taoism, Buddhas, Immortals and Bodhisattvas, there are more than a hundred strange temples, as many as cows. In some villages, counties, and even one village, there are three or five temples. The monsters in the temple control the wisdom of the people, bewitch people's hearts with evil words, and even fight for believers. The largest of them is the Fire Phoenix Society, a demon who calls himself the Holy Mother of the Red Heaven, said that he is the Nine Heavens Xuannv descending to the earth to deceive the people in the eastern Zhejiang area. When the subordinates look at it, they have bad intentions."

Li Yuanai said: "Why don't local officials come forward to manage it?"

Lou Shide paused and didn't know how to speak.

Li Yuanai frowned and said, "You were not in his position before and did not do anything, but now you are under my control. Since you have raised this matter, what are your concerns?"

Lou Shide hurriedly said: "It's not because his subordinates are concerned, but because he is an official in Jiangdu. The details are heard and there is no actual investigation."

Li Yuanai said: "Then let me tell you what you hear."

Lou Shide nodded and said, "On the one hand, some of these temple sacrifices did not violate national laws, and the other is that compared with the government, the people trusted them more. The pressure on grain tax in Jiangnan is extremely high, and officials from all sides are unwilling to intensify conflicts. As long as the people are willing to farm and be able to pay the full amount of the food required by the court, most of them turn a blind eye."

Li Yuanai's heart is like a mirror. This so-called hearsay is probably true.

Yes, the Tang Dynasty was less than thirty years old, but it had cleaned up all the enemies around it and fought almost for years.

As an official in Jiangnan, as long as he can pay enough food for the court, he will be a clerk.

As for the people?

Where can I care about so much?

Is it worth it to exchange for the current situation of the Tang Dynasty's sword drawing its sword and looking invincible?

Li Yuanai cannot evaluate it.

Just as in one sentence: Prosperity, the people suffer, the people suffer, the people suffer.

But since he has arrived in Jiangnan, he will do his best to restore Jiangnan to its vitality as much as possible.

Li Yuanai's eyes showed determination and smiled, "It is said that new officials took office for three fires. Seeing Suzhou getting closer and closer, I was thinking about how to burn this fire these days. Now that I have it, I will use these lewd sacrifices to start the attack. Lou Shide, this proposal is what you said, and I was left to you to take charge of this matter. But I think you are a weak person, but I don't know if I can afford to eliminate the burden of lewd sacrifices in the east of Jiangnan?"

Lou Shide stepped forward and said, "The King of Wu clearly saw that his subordinates were just unwilling to fight with their own people, and did not have the attitude of a daughter. As long as your highness orders, Shide will definitely wipe out unnecessary lewd sacrifices for His Highness."

"Okay!" Li Yuanai naturally knew that as a person who dared to lead troops as a civil servant, how could he be a rat?

The previous words were just a provocation.

He grew up and said, "To govern Jiangnan, we must start by eliminating the desolation."

The official ship arrived in Suzhou on the second day.

Suzhou Governor Zhou Rui, along with the chief officials of Tang Kai, Sima Yinhai, and Sigong joined the army, Sicang joined the army, Sihu joined the army, the judicial army, the military army, the military army, the military army, and the military army of Sitian joined the army, together with the Suzhou Canal Wharf, welcoming Li Yuanai's arrival.

Zhou Rui naturally disliked Li Yuanai's fall from the sky.

The governor of the Tang Dynasty had great power. As the top leader of the prefecture, he seized three powers in military, government and finance.

The arrival of Li Yuanai directly reduced his status by more than one level.

Li Yuanai opened his prefecture directly in Suzhou.

This time, officials in the mansion are indispensable.

Almost every one of them is above him, as the governor.

Who can stand it when he suddenly changed from the eldest to the fourth and fifth?

So what if you can't stand it?

Li Yuanai is a perfect match for crossing the river. He has the power to enforce the administrative law in the sixteen states, and the key is the power to demote and enhance it.

He could demote himself, the governor of Suzhou, and replace him with another person to serve as the role.

Zhou Rui felt depressed, that was hard to say.

These days, he and his confidant Shi Tang Kai and Sima Yinhai discussed how to face the arrival of Li Yuanai more than once.

After discussing, there was no real way to be satisfied.

With no choice, Zhou Rui even cursed in his heart, the official ship that cursed Li Yuanai hit the reef on the canal.

Obviously everything was delusional, and Li Yuanai arrived at Suzhou Pier earlier than the agreed time.

With his feet firmly stepped on the bluestone bricks, Li Yuanai reached out to support his wife, then stomped his feet and said, "This down-to-earth feeling is really good."

They went south all the way and since boarded the boat in Luoyang, they had never been to the land with their feet, which took half a month.

Xu Long pointed to the officials waiting on the shore and signaled Li Yuanai not to lose his manners.

Li Yuanai smiled at his wife and then walked a few steps forward.

Zhou Rui, Tang Kai, and Yin Hai, three core Suzhou officials, led their team to visit.

"Have you met the King of Wu!"

Li Yuanai looked at everyone and said, "Get up!"

Zhou Rui hurriedly stepped forward and said, "The King of Wu has worked hard all the way. The official has already vacant government office and serve as the governor's office for His Highness the King of Wu. He also specially invited all the officials and gentry from Suzhou to welcome His Highness."

Flattery.

This is what Zhou Rui thought about for a long time before coming up with a solution that was not a solution!

Li Yuan was particularly capable of giving birth. There were many princes in the Tang Dynasty, and most princes were not the same as the same virtue!

All official duties are handed over to their subordinates for eating, drinking and having fun in the country.

If he could be fascinated by him and provide him with food, drink and fun, it would be a good thing for him.

Li Yuanai said: "You can live in the government office by yourself. I will find a place in the city to build the governor's office without using the provincial government. I will be exempted from being welcomed and dust-free. I will hold a banquet. Go and notify people, meet them together, and meet them. Also, who is the Sima of Suzhou?"

When Yin Hai heard Li Yuanai calling his name, he stepped forward nervously and said, "Sima Yin Hai, the Sima of Suzhou."

Li Yuanai pointed to Lou Shide beside him and said, "From today on, you will follow Lou Bingcao's arrangements. He will be as directed as I will, and you can mobilize the troops of Suzhou Guard City to defend the troops."

Yin Hai glanced at Zhou Rui and dared not refuse to obey.

Zhou Rui's expression was a little stiff, and a feeling of powerlessness appeared in his heart. He understood that the Tang Dynasty wise king in front of him was a real dragon crossing the river and could not be easily controlled.

From this first contact, Zhou Rui could see that he was here to control everything, not to come to Jiangnan to enjoy himself and become a hand-off manager.

If he had any refutation today, even if he did not settle himself immediately, he would not be the governor of Suzhou for too long.

The future is dim.
