The party returned to the camp, and the guests and hosts took their seats.
Huang Zhong knew the purpose of his trip, but he didn't know much about it. He also wanted to hear what Liu Xiu said. He asked himself, "what are the specific arrangements for my Lord to send me to Jiaozhou?"
Liu Xiu said firmly: "guard Jiaozhou!"
Huang Zhong nodded solemnly after listening.
Guard Jiaozhou!
The weight of the four words is heavy enough to make Huang Zhong take it seriously.
Liu Xiu looked serious and continued: "when you are in Jiaozhou, things are the same as in Changsha County. You do not interfere in the affairs of Jiaozhou, but you must ensure the stability and security of Jiaozhou. The most important thing is that you have to be in control. The army is stationed in Guangxin County, but in each county of Jiaozhou, you can send soldiers to garrison to ensure absolute control of Jiaozhou. "
"No!"
Huang Zhong's face was more serious after hearing this.
Obviously, the situation is not optimistic.
On the way here, Huang Zhong heard something about Jiaozhou. At present, Jiaozhou is nominally under the control of Liu Xiu. In fact, there are many places that are independent, but nominally subordinate to Liu Xiu.
All these need to be dealt with by him.
Liu Xiu's eyes fell on Ma Liang, who was Huang Zhong's military adviser and also played an important role.
Liu Xiu said: "Ji Chang, Han Sheng's main task is to train troops and fight wars to stabilize the situation in Jiaozhou. You should not only assist Hansheng in dealing with military affairs, but also pay attention to the political affairs of Jiaozhou, so that you can be as clear as the palm of your hand. Otherwise, it's easy to go wrong. Do you understand? "
"Yes! I understand. "
Ma Liang nodded.
As soon as the words changed, Ma Liang asked, "what should I do with Shi Xie?"
Ma Liang must ask clearly about this degree.
Liu Xiu thought about it and replied, "at present, Shi Xie and his family are loyal to me."
"On the one hand, Shi Xie's brother Shi Yi is going to return to Jingzhou with me. Shi Xie dare not act rashly when Shi Yi is taken hostage. On the other hand, I married Shi Xie's daughter as my concubine and married him. "
"Therefore, we need to have a close relationship with Shi Xie."
Liu Xiu added: "but you have to pay attention to the fact that Shi Xie is resourceful and resourceful. He is not an easy person. Once he began to seek personal gain, regardless of the overall situation of the state. You first remind and then warn. It's really no good. I'll allow you to use force. You should make good use of yourself. "
"I see!"
Ma Liang nodded and had a measure in his mind.
"Newspaper!"
Suddenly, Deng Zhan came in and reported: "Lord, there is a conflict in Guangxin county."
"What conflict?" Liu Wei frowned.
Why did he come for this?
Guangxin County, Guangxin county magistrate, Cangwu Taishou.
Even, there is Shi Xie, the governor of Jiaozhou. How can he be found?
With a helpless look on his face, Deng Zhan replied: "the thing is, we are going to return to Jingzhou soon. Some soldiers in the army asked for leave to go to the county town to buy some special products and fruit food."
"Unexpectedly, there was a conflict in the street."
"When one of the soldiers started, he accidentally overthrew a civilian on the ground, and the civilian died."
"As soon as the incident happened, some people blocked the soldiers. These soldiers are also in trouble. When things go wrong, they do not calm down the incident. They even want to run away and beat up the people who obstruct them. "
"I didn't expect that this move aroused public indignation."
"The people in the street blocked the way they left, and the soldiers were trapped in it."
"The magistrate of Guangxin county has gone to take charge of stabilizing the situation," Deng said. But on the one hand, it's our soldiers, on the other hand, it's the wounded people. "
"Guangxin county magistrate is in a dilemma. He can only control the situation as much as possible."
"Shi Xie already knew about it. He sent someone to inform him. Please take care of it. Shi Xie said that only when this matter is handled properly can the Lord let Jingzhou soldiers really have a foothold in Jiaozhou. "
Deng Zhan explained the whole process and then waited for Liu Xiu's decision.
When Liu Xiu listened to this, his brain turned and he understood.
Ma Liang said: "Lord, SHIXIE means..."
Liu Xiuse said: "I understand what Shi Xie means, but the army has long ordered that soldiers stationed in Guangxin county should not disturb the people. Today's soldiers should not do this because of their feelings and reasons. They are also in trouble. "
Deng Zhan asked: "Shi Xie asked the Lord to deal with it. Are you going there in person? Or what to do with it? "
Liu Xiu said, "take a team of soldiers and I'll go there myself."
"No!"
Deng Zhan was ordered to turn around and arrange.
Soon, Liu Xiu took Deng Zhan, Ma Liang, Huang Hu, and a group of soldiers to the city.
……
Sanshui street is located in the west of Guangxin county.
The street is full of vendors.
Most of the goods sold by the vendors are local products of Jiaozhou, many of which are not found in the Central Plains, and some of them are rare and rarely seen.Traders or tourists who come to Cangwu county like to buy some fruit products in Sanshui street of Guangxin county. At this time, Sanshui street was blocked. People were very heavy, blocking the street.
In the center, a group of Yamen officers formed a circle, making the middle empty.
Among them, six soldiers were back to back, looking around on guard. Around the soldiers, there were a few black and blue people, a common people who had fallen to the ground and died for a long time, and their families who were in mourning.
Guangxin county magistrate stood aside to maintain the situation and prevent problems.
In the face of such a situation, Shi Xie's face was calm without any panic.
When he saw this scene, he had a plan to deal with it. But Liu Xiu married his daughter. He had to think about it for Liu Xiu, so he sent someone to inform Liu Xiu and ask him to deal with it.
Only in this way can the best effect be achieved.
Looking at the excited people around him, Shi Xie said in a loud voice, "folks, please believe in Liu Jingzhou and my official. No matter who breaks the law, he will never escape under my jurisdiction. "
"It's a matter of course to kill people and pay off debts. Because today we are talking about the soldiers under Liu Jingzhou, so we have to wait for Liu Jingzhou to deal with this matter. "
"I believe you also want to see how he handles it."
Shi Xie's voice was hoarse, but very passionate and convincing. His voice was calm, and he continued: "I can guarantee that if Liu Jingzhou does not give a fair and just statement. I will not give up until this matter is finished. Today's matter, Liu Jingzhou must give a reasonable disposition and statement before it can be regarded as the end. "
Shi Xie's words resonated with the people.
The situation has stabilized with the help of Shi Xie.
Everyone is waiting for Liu Xiu to deal with it.
The situation has stabilized for the time being, but the undercurrent is turbulent, because the people in Cangwu County hold a breath in their hearts. If this tone is not dredged, once it breaks out, it will be turbulent.
"Mr. Shi has a point. We will not wrongly a good man, but we will never let a bad man go."
"Lord Shi Xie is worthy of high prestige in Jiaozhou. Unlike the magistrate of Guangxin County, he is just submissive. He has really lost the face of Guangxin county."
"Master Shi Xie, we must punish criminals severely. If we don't punish criminals severely this time, how can we stabilize people's hearts if such things happen again next time? "
People's eyes fell on Shi Xie.
In the eyes of the common people, Shi Xie seems to be their representative and the person on whom they place their hopes.
Shi Xie listened to the people and knew that things were under control. He comforted and assured the people.
"Here comes the man, here comes the man!"
All of a sudden, there was a sensation outside the crowd. After having a common people to shout, the common people around immediately agitated, all people's eyes looked toward the periphery. Many people, even more spontaneously, gave way.
Liu Xiu, Huang Hu, Deng Zhan and Ma Liang came in with ten soldiers. The rest of the soldiers had to stay at the entrance of the street because the street was too crowded.
A moment later, Liu Xiu came to the center.
"Liu Jingzhou, you said before that you will treat the people in Jiaozhou fairly. What do you want to do about what happened today? If we don't give a statement, we will never agree. "
"Liu Jingzhou, Jiaozhou people are also people."
"When he killed corrupt officials before, he thought Liu Jingzhou was a fair and just man. Now it seems that Liu Jingzhou's subordinates are also harbouring evils. It's disappointing that there are such ferocious soldiers. "
The situation is out of control.
Liu Xiu raised his hand and pressed down to make the people calm down, saying, "folks, please listen to me."
"Shh
The people began to speak, and the surrounding area soon became quiet.
People's eyes fell on Liu Xiu.
Liu Xiu looked serious and said slowly, "I don't know the whole story. Please give me some time to understand the whole story. I will give you a fair and just account of what should be, OK? "
"Good!"
People open their mouths and wait for Liu Xiu to deal with them.
Liu Xiu took a look at Shi Xie, and his eyes met Shi Xie. He understood what Shi Xie meant. The purpose of Shi Xie's asking him to come here was to let him deal with it personally, win the favor of the people, and establish prestige and credibility.
