Li Yi paused and said slowly: "Therefore, after we slowly regain the hearts of the local people, we should start to eradicate the stubborn forces in all aspects that are most likely to oppose us, this is the most powerful measure to ensure the long-term stability of the governor of Chaozhou!" ”

Wang Lan said puzzledly: "The local powerful gentry are all quite powerful powers, if we kill them indiscriminately, I am afraid that it will provoke a greater backlash, and if it causes large-scale turmoil, it will be troublesome." To be honest, if you want to manage the local people well, you still have to rely on them in many ways! ”

Li Yi nodded with a smile and said, "Of course we can't exterminate the local gentry at will, but we must distinguish the situation and treat it differently." For the wealthy families who have taken refuge in them, we must not only use them, but also deliberately restrict and divide them, and we must not let them endlessly expand their strength. ”

"And for the gate lord forces that have always disobeyed the orders of the imperial court, or who have disobeyed the yang and the yin, and secretly conspired to rebel, we must ruthlessly eradicate them, and we must not let them have the capital to oppose us."

In fact, the local people also complained about them, but they dared not speak out. Isn't it an important measure for us to promote good governance in Chaozhou that we eradicate these underworld forces in Yumeat Township for them? Ordinary people can only applaud, how can they not understand and support? ”

Hearing this, Wang Lan sighed wastefully: "The virtuous nephew's tricks and power changes are beyond the reach of the old man!" From these few sentences, it can be seen that the future of the virtuous nephew is definitely unlimited. ”

"Alas! I valued a few post-born boys back then, to be honest, you were still at the end, at that time you were too upright, didn't know how to be flexible, and the old man's temper was somewhat similar, and this is your biggest weakness. ”

"But as the saying goes, 'Shibei should be impressed for three days', with your current courage and insight, and humble and obedient attitude, the old man has reason to believe that it will not be long before you will be the best among these people. Hey! I'm old, I can't accept it! ”

Li Yinheng said with a smile: "Don't spoil him anymore, if young people don't go through hardships and don't suffer some losses, they won't be able to gain knowledge." He is too smooth now, and the emperor is impressed with him again, but he is afraid that he is a little arrogant and arrogant, and he will offend everyone unconsciously, and it will be too late by then. ”

Wang Lan said: "It's okay! Your brother is only cautious all his life, but you can't let your child look forward and be unenterprising. What Runzhi did in Yunnan is enough to show that his vision and ability are not beyond the reach of us old guys. ”

"Okay, I won't say more, I'll start recruiting people tomorrow and start on the road the day after tomorrow. Your Majesty has been waiting for a long time, I can't help but worry about Your Majesty, this soldier is fast, but I can't be a little slow! ”

When Li Yi heard him say this, his heart moved, and he hurriedly said: "Uncle Wang, you went to Chaozhou this time, I don't know if you have enough people to bring with you, there are thousands of affairs over there, if there is no competent person, you can't be busy even if you have three heads and six arms!" ”

"More importantly, the measures you are going to implement in Chaozhou are focused on implementation, and whether you can understand your intentions and implement them is the key to the problem. But I don't know if there are any such talents under your command? ”

Wang Lan hesitated: "Yes! The old man has been idle for many years, and his talents have long withered, although there are still a hundred and ten people who know the roots, but I am afraid that it will not help if something happens. ”

"However, the emperor has already told me that he has sent me an additional 200 personal soldiers, and the rest of the counselor's staff can be recruited and selected by me at will."

"But to be honest, time is really limited now, and if you think about choosing someone at this time, I'm afraid that those who are selected will not be happy to follow, isn't this obviously offending people?"

Li Yi smiled slightly and said, "What Uncle Wang said is that in addition to your many years of personal companionship, I'm afraid few people are willing to go to Chaozhou to take risks at this time." However, I do have a few suitable candidates, I don't know what you think? ”

Wang Lan smiled: "It's all this time, what else is suitable or inappropriate!" Even if you say it, I'm just afraid that people won't want to go with me on this troubled water! ”

Li Yi smiled and said: "Uncle Wang, don't worry, I know this person well, and he is even more loyal to me." He used to be a secretary of the Yunnan Xuanfu Embassy and participated in the military, and he had rich experience in military and political, civil, supervision, finance and taxation, prosperity, water conservancy, and other affairs, and was a rare all-rounder. If you have any questions, please consult him, and I trust him to solve the problems for you. ”

Wang Lan said happily: "Great, I'm worried that no one is available!" Don't know who this person is? What kind of job do you hold now? ”

Li Yi hurriedly said: "This person's name is He Shoujie, and the people in Yunnan call him 'He Bodhisattva', but he is not a good-natured Bodhisattva, and he is not soft at all when dealing with the powerful and inferior gentry." It's just that after he came to the capital with me, he took up a temporary post in the yamen of the Xingwang Mansion, but he has nothing to do, and he must have been idle and depressed now. ”

"If you are interested, I will send someone to find him tomorrow, and I believe that he is also willing to go to Chaozhou with you to make contributions."

Wang Lan said happily: "Okay! Good! I took this person, is there anything else? How many more do you recommend? ”

After thinking for a while, Li Yi said with a smile: "Originally, there were many capable people under me, but most of them were not in the capital, and far water could not quench their thirst. So be it! There is also a rare scout lieutenant, who is serious, shrewd and decisive, and can be of great use. This person's name is Tong Gui, and now he has nothing to do, so why don't you bring him with you! ”

"The other is named Gao Chang, who is down-to-earth, meticulous and calculating. In addition, I also have some personal soldiers in the capital who have experience in the battlefield at home, and I will pick out dozens of people to go to Chaozhou with you, and guard you at all times to ensure the safety of your old man, I don't know what Uncle Wang thinks? ”

Wang Lan smiled and said, "This is great, how much you have there, I will take it all." Hey! Now there are fewer and fewer people with battlefield experience, but your officers and soldiers in Yunnan have just experienced the war, and their talents and experience must be impeccable, especially those who can come to the capital with you all the way with an iron heart, they should all be one in a thousand. I'm looking for talent right now! ”

After chatting for a while, seeing that there was no more oil and water to be squeezed from Li Yi, Wang Lan got up and said goodbye excitedly. Li Yinheng and Li Yi sent him outside the gate of the mansion all the time, and then they turned around and walked towards the inner house.
