Chapter 208 To learn to rule by inaction

For Gong Yangliu, the reason why he surrendered to the eldest princess early was not because he was optimistic about the eldest princess. He never thought that the eldest princess would really become the princess. The reason why he stood in the eldest princess was because among all the princes and princesses who were peeping at the throne, only the eldest princess agreed to him and let him always be the governor of Qiuzhou, and even was willing to ask for a title for him. The fief was Qiuzhou so that Gong Yangliu's descendants could continue to take charge of Qiuzhou.

Other officials were unwilling to come to Qiuzhou because it was not only the northwest border, but also the blind spots of the career. Once they got here, it would be difficult to leave. But Gong Yang Liu didn't think so. Although Qiuzhou was poor, he could not get much money when he was a governor, but if he was a few governors, or had been a governor for a long time, he would have accumulated a lot of benefits. Moreover, Qiuzhou was the highest and far away emperor, and the governor was the biggest official. He had the final say in a thousand miles, and he had no great ambitions. As the saying goes, it would be better to be a chicken head than a phoenix tail. With his ability, he would be very satisfied to be a chicken head.

However, in Qiuzhou, Gongyangliu also had some troublesome things, that is Zhenxi County. Zhenxi County is chaotic and poor. Not only can he not pay taxes to the state, but he also has to ask the state to provide subsidies. It is a county town that pays money, but he cannot start a rectification of Zhenxi County because there lived a former prince, and this former prince had also served as an emperor. In this case, how can he not be upset!

Gongyang Liu let Zhenxi County go his own way. He can do whatever he likes. As long as he does not rebel or leave Qiuzhou, that's fine. As for how the people there live and whether their lives are good or not, he doesn't care whether the former crown prince Li Yan dies. He even hopes that Li Yan will die. Anyway, as long as Li Yan's death has nothing to do with him. If he doesn't die, how to live, it's Li Yan's own business, and he doesn't care even more.

The governor's mansion, in the bedroom of the back house.

Gong Yangliu touched his back and couldn't bear it. He moaned, "It hurts, how much sin has he suffered in order to make some money. Is it easy to be an official, and it's easy to save some family business for his descendants, it's too difficult!"

His wife said, "Master, what's wrong? It hurts again? Lying down quickly and let me rub you."

"Come on, you are all old husband and wife, and there are no outsiders here. What's the matter with me? I'm so angry that I'm so full of goosebumps!" Gong Yang Liu said angrily and lay on the bed.

Mrs. Gongyang spat and immediately stopped pretending to be a lady, regaining her true self. She shouted, "You immortal, didn't you let me call myself a slave? Why don't you want to listen anymore?" As she said that, she sat down beside the bed and left a kneading waist for Gongyang.

The couple of Gongyang and his wife were both poor. Before Gongyang Liu became rich, they got married. They can be regarded as a couple in distress. They have the same personalities and love money as their lives. Why do they greedy for money? Because they are afraid of their children and grandchildren being poor as they were when they were young, they fought for money. They are not bad people. Although they love money, they did not shave three feet and plunder them desperately, and they did not force the people to have no way to survive. Didn’t they want to take root in Qiuzhou? Of course, their territory cannot be scattered too hard to arouse the resistance of the people.

Mrs. Ram massages her husband, first pressing the back of the waist, then pressing the buttocks, then pressing down on the back of the thighs, and finally massaging the outside of the calves. These places are places where the rams have pain.

After pressing for a long time, Mrs. Yang pressed her hands sore and said, "Old man, you said you finally became a master. After so long, how could the poor still have to be sick? Do you know that only the poor people who go to the fields to work can get it. It is not easy to get it, but it is a waste of medicine money!"

Gong Yang Liuqi said, "You old lady, you dare to say that I was wasting my medicine money. If you hadn't urged me, would I get this disease? You think I'd like to do it!"

"Can you blame me? I just want you to save two more money and leave more for your son! It's because you are useless, and you dare to tell me this!" Mrs. Yang tried hard on her hand, and she pinched Yang Liu so hard that she screamed.

It turned out that in order to make more money, Mrs. Gongyang left an idea for Gongyang at the beginning of spring this year to keep rice. Because of the climate in Qiuzhou, it is difficult to grow rice, so the price of rice is very high, several times higher than the price of noodles.

If there are people in Qiuzhou, fish and meat are not called face. If there is a pot of rice on the table, it is called a good meal! The less the place there is, the more rare the people are. Rice is one of them. However, if the people in Qiuzhou want to eat rice, they can only ship it from other places, so the price will naturally be higher.

Mrs. Gong Liu asked people to find a good piece of land, and introduced water into the land, making it the same as the paddy fields in the Central Plains, and asked Gong Liu to find someone to plant it, but no local people could plant it. Gong Liu was poor before. He had planted rice. In order to grow rice, he had obtained a good piece of land for his children and grandchildren, so he personally went to the field to demonstrate to the tenants and taught them to grow rice.

The governor tried to grow rice, which was a great thing for Qiuzhou. Although everyone knew that this land was the private land of the governor. It was a good thing for the sake of his family to make money, so when Gongyang left the field, the people of Qiuzhou came to see the fun. Local literati and poets even compiled the grand occasion of the day into the local chronicles and wrote it into the book to praise Gongyang, saying that the governor personally started to cultivate and taught the people to grow rice, which was a good feat for the future generations.

Unfortunately, there were too many days for Gongyang Liu to enjoy his happiness. After he went down the field, he could not stand it. He ended the demonstration quickly and asked the tenants to do the following things by themselves. Of course, he ended early, but he still received countless flatteries and flatteries. He also wrote a lot of marks in the local chronicles.

But because of this time, the Yang Lan left the root of the disease, and the back of the waist to the buttocks, the back of the thighs and the outside of the thighs, and often had severe pain. When the disease occurs, the waist and hamstrings and veins are tight and cramped, and they cannot move. The pain can be slightly relieved after using heat and massage. I asked the doctor to see this disease, and the doctor said that this disease is very common, not a difficult and complicated disease, but just a tendon numbness.

But although it is not a difficult and complicated disease, there is no effective way to treat it. To put it in the doctor's work, it will be hot when it hurts, and massage will be done. When it doesn't hurt... Then bear it. Anyway, who has this disease is not enduring? This is called a poor disease. Rich people will not get it. Who will be full and have enough? Going to the field to plant rice, or plant it in Qiuzhou!

Gong Yang Liu became more and more angry as he thought about it. He said, "If I planted rice, it would be worth it if I had it, but if I didn't plant it, the rice would all die. Isn't my disease in vain? I have said a long time ago that there is no way to grow rice in Qiuzhou..."

Before he finished speaking, Mrs. Yang said angrily: "When did you say it long ago? You said it when you dreamed and said you were talking about it. Why didn't I hear it? When I said this, you were still applauding. You said that you could make a big deal by planting rice in our private fields, and that you were not allowed to plant other people's fields. Did you say this? Now I'm blaming me!"

"You woman, your hair is long and short. I said it in my heart, of course you can't hear it..." Gong Yangliu was furious. He and his wife quarreled until their hair turned white when they were young. They quarreled countless times, but he was always at a disadvantage, and this time was no exception.

The couple was about to quarrel. Suddenly, a servant outside the door said, "Master, Madam, someone has come to Zhenxi County and said he wants to see the master."

"Zhenxi County? Why are people coming again? Did Yang Ze send someone again? He is free and he is always free. Why do you always send someone to do? Could it be that he still wants to achieve political achievements and want to be promoted?" Gong Yang Liu said unhappily. He couldn't even get promoted, so he could only think about getting rich. Yang Ze actually wanted to be promoted, which was simply a daydream.

Gong Yangliu got up from the bed, and the county magistrate under his command sent someone to see him. If he was from another county, he would disappear if he didn't see him, but he had to see him in Zhenxi County because the former prince lived there. If it was something related to the former prince, he would not be able to escape even if he wanted to.

When he went to the front hall, Gong Yangliu saw Yan Chenghou, but he had nothing nonsense. He just answered and asked Yan Chenghou what he did. He told him about it when he had something to do. If he had nothing to do, he would go back to the west of the town as soon as possible. Don’t get tired of him!

Yan Chenghou didn't care about Gong Yang Liu's attitude. He took out Yang Ze's official documents and submitted them to him, saying, "Mr. Yang, my family has an urgent official document to send him to his post. This matter needs to be decided by the governor. My family, Mr. Yang, dare not be good at it!"

Gong Yangliu opened the official document and read it. He showed a surprised expression on his face, saying, "The Tuluhun Shulu tribe wants to generously respect me? He also sent thirty sheep as tributes, and the sheep are all dead? What's going on? It's a mess. Even if the Tuluhun people want to surrender, it's not his Shulu tribe. There are so many Tuluhun tribes, when will it be their turn to stand out!"

Yan Cheng and kind: "When I say to the governor, it is because this matter is strange and the same as a joke. My master has just taken office, so I don't know what to do. Please tell me."

Gong Yangliu thought for a while and said, "Just ignore it, you need to do nothing. Go back and tell Yang Ze that he should learn to govern without doing anything. As long as there is no trouble in the west, it will be his greatest political achievement."

Yan Chenghou was shocked. On the way he came, he had thought about how to deal with countless species of Yangliu, but he didn't expect that Yangliu said that he would do nothing and do nothing. He said, "But no matter what, Shuluo tribe wants to pay tribute, and he also sent tribute. Although the sheep are dead, should we return it? For example, giving Shuluo tribe something worth thirty sheep is considered a ritual exchange?"

Gong Yang Liu said, "Yes, they sent live sheep, it's hard to return the dead sheep. Just give them some things, as long as they don't let them come and cause trouble again. Tell the people of Shuluo tribe that we are generous and do not accept their surrender."

Yan Chenghou said again: "What if the Shuluo tribe is so silly that it comes to pay tribute again? Are you going to send the messenger to you?"

"Then there is no need. If Tuluhun comes to surrender and send some sheep over, will it be possible for Chengdu to deal with it? What else do you want to do? Go back and tell Yang Ze that if you encounter such a thing in the future, you will be able to deal with it like this time." After Yang Liu said that, he stood up with difficulty, covered his butt with his hands, and went back to the back house.
