When Li Longji said this, a sharp light flashed in his eyes.

He was not a truly kind emperor, but rather cruel. His position as emperor was obtained through two iron-blooded coups.

The first Tanglong coup was to purge Empress Wei, Princess Anle, Zong Chuke and the remnants of the Wu family, and successfully took up the throne of the prince. The second time was the innate coup, which eliminated the power of my aunt Princess Taiping.

During the two coups, almost all the court was cleaned up, and there were more than a thousand people slaughtered.

How can an emperor who holds the throne of the emperor in a sea of ​​corpses and blood and holds great power be kind?

His kindness and trust are only directed at those who he believes, such as Gao Lishi, Wang Maozhong, Pei Min, and even Li Linfu, Yang Guozhong, An Lushan and others behind him.

Facing those he believed in, even if he lost his chain at a critical moment, he almost ruined the idiot who failed Li Longji and Tanglong's coup, he would not blame him and trust him.

Li Longji is far from being so kind to others, and is even extra strict.

Especially Kang Daibin and He Hei Nu, the ambitious people who used the Tang Dynasty's tolerance for treating foreign races to make trouble, were even more intolerable.

So he admired Pei Min's thundering methods this time. Even though the civil and military officials in the court opposed Pei Min's cruel style of killing women and children and killing them all, he was indifferent. Instead, he found an excuse to demote the officials who were slandering and let them go to the local government to serve as officials. He was not upset.

Li Longji not only did not bother with Pei Min, but felt considerate.

Who in this world knows Li Longji better than Gao Lishi? Facing Li Longji's problem, Gao Lishi pursed his lips and said, "That's right! Kang Daibin and He Hei Nu actually made the Duke fail to hear Xiaoqi and Xiaoba call him "Dad" for the first time, which is really a great crime."

Li Longji said: "Since you are extremely guilty, then let Lingchi die! I want all the foreigners in the world to know that they are willing to surrender to our Tang Dynasty. The Tang Dynasty swept the bed to wait, but if you have two hearts, you will be punished like Kang Waibin and He Hei Slave, and you will never give up easily."

"Your Majesty is wise!" Gao Lishi smiled and flattered.

The Tang Dynasty was a very humane dynasty with a high degree of civilization. After Emperor Taizong, all punishments were significantly reduced, and even the abolition of the death penalty was considered!

In the feudal era, this advanced civilization idea made many future generations incredible.

Lingchi's severe punishment was extremely rare in the Tang Dynasty. He Hei Nu's crime of treating Kang Bin according to normal procedures should be executed in half.

But because Pei Min was in a small mood, he was directly expelled to Lingchi and executed.

Pei Min and Li Longji's method of dealing with rebellion also sounded a wake-up call for foreigners who were clearly enjoying the benefits of the Tang Dynasty.

If you want to rebel against Tang, you should first consider your own strength.

As for the remaining people of Liuhu Prefecture who did not rebel against the Tang Dynasty, Pei Min did not need to mention this.

Kang Daibin and He Hei Nu's disaster have already reflected how ignorant it is to give the rich territory of water and grass to the alien races attached.

Song Jing, Su Feng and Zhang Jiazhen of the Prime Minister's Group have already begun to make up for the loss, and moved the alien people in Liuhu Prefecture to Jianghuai and Jiangnan, just filling the characteristics of insufficient number of people in Jiangnan.

As for their lack of farming, this doesn't matter.

The most unabashed thing in the Tang Dynasty was farming experts. As a farming country, it was easy to catch a farmer on the street and could tell a lot of farming principles.

The local officials made efforts and invited old farmers to teach them their farming experience step by step.

This person is forced to the extreme of life, so there is no reason why he can't learn it. He is really repulsive and unwilling to learn it, so he will do rough handicrafts and should starve to death if he doesn't want to do anything.

Want to rebel?

In Jiangnan, the surroundings are all Chinese people with pure blood. Only when they are kicked by donkeys will they rebel with them.

As for the development of Liuhu Prefecture, the Prime Minister's Group also has a new idea. Liuhu Prefecture is even less suitable for farming than Taozhou.

Taozhou can maintain the resource operation of the entire prefecture with animal husbandry and handicrafts. Why can't Liuhuzhou do its best to develop animal husbandry?

Moreover, promoting animal husbandry also had a certain stimulating effect on the grain output of the Tang Dynasty.

Although fewer people are farming, in addition to producing sheep, milk and horse milk, the animal husbandry industry can make the young and middle-aged children of the Tang Dynasty healthier and stronger, and can also cultivate many plowing oxen to make up for the shortcomings of plowing oxen.

Replacing labor with ox plowing can not only reduce the burden on the people, but also allow the people of each household to cultivate several acres of land and increase grain production.

All this is not an unexpected situation. Taozhou's current prosperity just proves that this move is feasible.

Diversified development is the best for the country. Although sticking to farming can ensure that the people have no worries about food and clothing, it is not conducive to the long-term.

Pei Min himself didn't know that he gave up the governance methods of farming in Taozhou and switched to the administrative methods of industry and animal husbandry, which invisibly promoted the progress of the Tang Dynasty system.

************

"The governor of Longyou, the censor, the chief censor, and the Duke of Liang, Pei Min, was brave and fearless. He quelled the rebellion of Liuhuzhou in the month, captured the thief heads in the desert, and was awarded the title of champion general. He also heard that the wife of Xi County, Pei, had a good education in his children, and was awarded the title of Mrs. Jincheng County..."

"Thank you for your kindness!" Pei Min helped Pei's mother stand up, laughed and took the imperial eunuch from the eunuch who sent the eunuch, enthusiastically asked someone to take the eunuch who sent the eunuch to entertain her happily.

Pei's mother held the outfit of the wife of the country rewarded by Li Longji in both hands, and she smiled like a baby and couldn't stop her from getting started.

Pei Min actually had nothing to say in his heart. The champion general was a military official. He only added an extra empty title in front of his super long official position and received a lot of salary.

With his current salary as a governor, censor, chief censor, and Duke Liang, a one-year salary, is enough for him to eat and drink for half his life, and with the champion and general, it is not very meaningful.

But this is Li Longji's intention. Even if Pei Min doesn't care much about it, he still has to smile.

What's more, official positions are a symbol of status and status. The more you have, the better, it is an indisputable fact.

However, seeing that Pei's mother was so happy, Pei Min was also happy in her heart.

"Mom, take it well, don't get rid of it. The child still has official duties, so go first!"

Pei's mother heard the teasing in this sentence and rolled her eyes and said, "Go and go, what do you know? The county lady is much more prestigious than the county lady. If one day you can make Wei Mom the country lady, even if she goes, she will be satisfied."

Pei Min said as she walked, "That mother has waited for a few years. I will always be able to wait for it."

Pei's mother looked at Pei Min's disappearing figure and smiled happily: "This child!"

When he arrived at the conference hall, Pei Min unexpectedly saw Yuan Luqian's figure and laughed: "Brother Luqian, thank you for your hard work! Hurry up, report to me, what's the situation?"

Instead of asking Yuan Luqian to sit down on the right, he dragged the mat to move directly in front of the table, so that the two of them could speak to each other.

The king and his subjects even sit opposite each other and report.

In addition to maintaining his majesty in the face of tight business, Pei Min is particularly easy-going and casual at other times.

Yuan Luqian also knew the temperament of his confidant, so he sat down to report the situation.

Before Wang Zhihuan and Wang Changling's future, Pei Min was short of men under his command. Talents like Zhang Jiuling and Yuan Luqian often held several positions alone to maintain the operation of the Jiedu Mansion.

Yuan Luqian was the Jiedushi branch envoy, responsible for the monitoring and inspection of the Longyou Army troops. It happened that due to the severe drought in Longyou, many people could not continue.

According to Zhang Jiuling's proposal, Pei Min adopted a labor-for-relief method to solve the food and clothing of the people of Longyou through labor.

Some built roads, some opened canals, and some repaired cities... In short, Pei Min's original plan was to take this opportunity to make a major renovation in Longyou.

In ordinary times, people are busy with farming and are unwilling to get involved. They need to issue special orders to recruit labor to do these things.

Now that there is this opportunity, there is no need to issue a special order and it is a pity not to make good use of it.

This comprehensive overhaul has made the people's projects unquestionable. They will definitely work hard to make a living for their lives.

Pei Min was worried that there were local officials or local gentry responsible for the project, and they took advantage of this opportunity to make money secretly. They either used inferior products as good products or deducted wages from the people.

This kind of thing happens not only in modern times, but also in ancient times.

In order to prevent such situations, Pei Min specially asked Yuan Luqian to be responsible for the supervision and inspected various places in Longyou, and also fulfilled the responsibilities of the Jiedushi.

Yuan Luqian had already gone out when Pei Min went to fight Kang Kaibin and had just returned for more than two months.

Yuan Luqian had already recorded his experiences along the way and handed them over and said, "A local county magistrate took this opportunity to arrange for the people to repair the government office and renovate the outer hall and inner houses. What to do with it is still your decision."

Pei Min said without hesitation: "It's withdrawn, nothing to say. If the local officials attach importance to the face-saving project, they think that the government office is too dilapidated and will damage the face of the court. It is understandable that even the inner house is repaired, which is obvious that the official is not upright. What is the purpose of this kind of official? For one, I will withdraw one, and I will never be vague."

Yuan Luqian continued: "The two gentry were caught! They were not very greedy, and their subordinates did not show mercy to them and went directly to prison. Everything else was fine, and local officials seemed to know Brother Pei's reputation and did not dare to fill their pockets. I counted it. In the past two months, Longyou has repaired a total of 38 streets, dug out three canals, and opened an official road between Jincheng and Taozhou to facilitate the exchanges between the two places. The city defenses have been maintained more or less. The key and important streets have been repaired almost... The merchants and people from all over the country responded greatly and praised them. Seeing the extraordinary results, the gentry from all over the country also invested funds to request the repair of the roads in their respective villages and counties. The officials were also asking where to repair them next?"

Pei Min asked: "We are not chess pieces for the gentry, we must also be chess pieces for the people. The convenience of the people is our convenience. In the past two months, you have penetrated into the people and found out the voices of the people?"
