A Navy Sea Shark-class battleship slowly docked on the dock of Yiju Port, Chen Xin walked down the gangway, did a few exercises on the dock, and stretched his hands and feet.

On the pier next to the wharf, there happened to be a group of people dressed as people boarding the ship, and Chen Xin recognized the big ship as the transport ship specially allocated to the Liaodong Development Department.

"It seems that these new immigrants are going to work in Lushun, and it seems that the efficiency of the administrative department is not bad."

This group of people basically migrated from Shandong last year, and most of the victims who fled the military disaster did not know Chen Xin.

Therefore, after seeing the huge hull of the Sea Shark-class battleship, this group of people kept looking curiously at the members of the guard flag team who disembarked from the ship while carrying grain and grass.

In the distance, on the pier trestle, some newly bred horses were being transported, which were used by the cavalry troops who were redeployed to defend Lushun.

In the current situation, priority needs to be given to ensuring the food supply of the personnel stationed in the Lushun Dispatch Army.

According to the estimates of the transportation department, it will be at least until May that enough grain and grass will be stored near the port of Lushun to use the troops in eastern Liaodong.

Therefore, before that, the number of cavalry deployed in the Liaodong region needs to be limited.

Chen Xin did not ride the war horse brought by the adjutant, but walked and first went to the office of the Ministry of Commerce next to the dock.

He was ready to consult with the Minister of Commerce about the feasibility of his previous sudden idea.

Chen Xin is not a professional, and after the crossing, he basically didn't care too much about this matter, so he just put forward an idea, and the specific feasibility survey, action plan, etc., all need to be done by the elites of the Ministry of Commerce.

Chen Xin has always been straightforward in his speech, so he quickly negotiated the whole thing and went out, preparing to go to the cabinet to have a look.

At this time, the people on the other side of the administrative system already knew about his return, and a large group of people were already waiting in the palace.

As soon as the secretary saw Chen Xin walking out of the security area of the dock, he immediately held his documents high, trotted over, and whispered to Chen Xin about the gradual escalation of domestic turmoil in the past few days.

Chen Xin listened to the secretary's explanation as he walked, and nodded from time to time.

After the secretary explained the whole thing in general, he whispered, "Your Majesty, things are very complicated now.

Some people are just following the crowd to make trouble, but there are many clan leaders who were originally very influential in the Ming Dynasty.

These guys, who have lost their power since they came to the kingdom, this time, it seems that they have been instructed by a master, and they are all connected together, covering each other, making us very passive.

Moreover, the main force responsible for public security in townships and towns is the militia, but those militiamen are all relatives with the local people, and when dealing with problems, they are also somewhat unable to grasp the proportions, and it is really difficult to deal with them.

In particular, some of the armed insurrectionists, when the army arrived, blended in with the people, restored their status as ordinary people, and as soon as the army left, they came out again to make trouble and plague other towns and villages.

Just yesterday, someone dared to storm the palace, but fortunately they were defeated by the guards and flag guards.

There is no consensus among the civil affairs authorities, and we, the Secretariat, believe that the previous punishment of the people who caused the riots was too light.

This is not good for our government.

Now, not only the problems of the townships and towns that are the source of the riots, but also the cities in the north of the kingdom that have been peaceful for a long time, are ready to move.

Because of the weak handling of the administrative department, in front of the several barracks we placed on the traffic nodes, there were people who dared to come and scold. ”

Chen Xin's expression on his face at this time was as calm as usual, and he couldn't see any joy or anger at all, he waved his hand lightly, indicating that he understood.

Then, at last, he spat out a sentence of "let's talk about it at a meeting", and he got on his horse and headed for the palace.

After coming to the palace, Chen Xin didn't say much, but just ordered all the important officials in the administrative side to assemble in the conference room."

Chen Xin's adjutant immediately took action, drafted the list with the secretariat, and quickly arranged for the attendants to arrange the venue.

The officers and administrative officials, who were still talking, were also quiet at the moment.

For a long time, it was Chen Xin who led everyone all the way forward, and many difficulties and obstacles encountered on the way were resolved one by one.

Therefore, seeing Chen Xin come back, everyone seemed to have taken a reassuring pill, no longer worried, and quietly followed the adjutant to the conference room.

Chen Xin did not go directly to the conference room, but first summoned the head of the intelligence department, the housekeeper and Anya, and went to the study together.

"How far have things got?"

Anya came over from a basin of water, twisted a towel, handed it to Chen Xin, then pursed her lips, and said in a slightly unbearable tone, "The first township where the fight started was four days ago, and until today, hundreds of people have died.

The concubine really couldn't imagine that the people who had just eaten enough would be so desperate. ”

Chen Xin took the towel and wiped it slowly, while saying, "The incident has happened for so many days, have you found the specific cause of the turmoil?" Is there something wrong with government departments at all levels? Or is there someone deliberately causing trouble? Or, both?

Also, why is it so serious? What about the various plans that the administration has made before? Didn't they all work? ”

The person in charge of the intelligence department immediately replied: "We immediately conducted a detailed investigation after the incident occurred, and found that this incident was also due to the fact that our government departments had not considered it thoroughly, and various policies and systems were not perfect, resulting in the accumulation of local contradictions.

Moreover, there are also those clan rulers who were originally in the Ming Dynasty and spoke more effectively than the emperor, and they were a little dissatisfied with living the same life as ordinary people after losing power.

As soon as the two were combined, this turmoil occurred.

As for the rest, we are still investigating. ”

"So, have the departments persuaded the people who started the riots?"

"It's been communicated."

"How's it going?"

"It's useless, it turns out that in the Ming Dynasty, in the local area, the patriarchs and elders can be more effective than the government's medicine.

Now, these immigrants have been migrated, and the longest has only been three or four years, and these habits of obeying the arrangements of the clan have not been completely changed.

In addition, this year is the first large-scale collective festival in the kingdom, and those lonely small families have been given a chance to vent under the clan family, so that those guys in the clan can take the initiative to take the initiative.

If we don't give in and reinstate the clan privileges they had in the Ming Dynasty, they won't stop rioting. ”
