The Han Dynasty controlled the leaders of major tribes and local noble families, and indirectly controlled the local area through these leaders and wealthy families.

This is also something that cannot be done.

No matter how talented Feng Junhou is, he can't get rid of the high temperature miasma, mosquitoes, flies, poisonous insects, ferocious beasts and birds and other obstacles in the jungle.

As for road construction... the infrastructure maniacs of later generations will have to wait until they have the strength to be confident enough to start.

Feng Junhou has no choice in this era.

Therefore, for the three southernmost counties, we can only take our time and do it bit by bit.

Feng Yong believed that as long as there were enough profits, he could always drive those desperate Shu families to regain the courage of their ancestors and overcome obstacles to expand their homes.

"Zhang Bogong (Zhang Yi) was too impatient. After he came to Nanzhong, he changed the tolerant attitude of Governor Li in the past and enforced the law strictly against the barbarians. Therefore, the barbarians have always been dissatisfied."

"It's just that many years have not passed since the Southern Expedition. Sir Yu En, ahem, and Ming Wen still have your remaining power, so I can barely suppress it."

"I never thought that when the news about Xiao Guan came, I don't know who spread the rumor first. I just said that the ghost king had been sent by heaven, so the stone tablet that the ghost king witnessed back then should also be torn down..."

The so-called stone tablet refers to the stone tablet erected by the Prime Minister of the Han Dynasty and the leaders of various tribes in Nanzhong when they swore an oath of alliance in Wei County. It was personally witnessed by the ghost king who pretended to be a ghost.

At that time, King Feng Gui also set off a lot of fireworks, which made the Yi people think it was a vision coming from heaven, so they knelt down to lick it.

Therefore, over the years, the Yi people in Nanzhong have cooperated with the Han Dynasty in the development of Nanzhong.

However, the Han Dynasty Prime Minister used Meng Huo, General Huo Aji and other prestigious barbarian leaders in South China to popularize the concept of ghost king.

Finally, the ghost king's name is used to harvest leeks, which means that the ghost king witnesses the oath and strengthens the authority of the oath.

Now there are people who are imitating his example and using his method to repay the other person:

The Ghost King will be punished by God because he has done too many evil things, so the oaths he made back then will not count!

Feng Yong could imagine with his buttocks what slogans these birdmen would shout after tearing down the stone monument.

Don't you just want to cause chaos?

Don’t you just want to do the opposite?

He could even guess who would be involved.

There will be aristocratic families who have lost power in Shu, and there will also be those wealthy families and tribal leaders in South Central who are unwilling to lose their status as local emperors.

Of course, there are even more people who have the same thoughts as Meng Huo in his early years: Can Liu Bei be the emperor of Shuzhong, but can I not be the emperor of Nanzhong?

"When the Prime Minister went to the south, he was half begging and half appeasing, or even begging for appeasement. Otherwise, he would not have used his family members to persuade Gao Ding to surrender."

Since the main focus is on nurturing, there will naturally be some people left who should be killed but not killed.

"It's just that there will always be some people who are lucky enough to think that the big man won't dare to kill them."

Feng Yong sneered, "This method of governance is all about tension and relaxation. Governor Li was originally from Nanzhong, so he treats people leniently; Governor Zhang enforces the law strictly, just to let those southern barbarians know the laws of the Han Dynasty."

"I happened to be plotted against Xiao Guan by the Cao thieves. I just gave them an excuse. Even if it hadn't happened, they would have rebelled sooner or later."

Zhang Xiaosi had already made it clear to him about the imperial court's plan, or Zhuge Lao Yao's plan.

How can Old Demon Zhuge carry out his plan to integrate all of Sichuan without uncovering those people with ulterior motives?

Now Feng Yong has every reason to suspect that Adou and Zhang Xingcai running to Hanzhong may not be a bait arranged by the old demon Zhuge for some people in Jincheng.

As long as Nanzhong rebels, some people will think that Jincheng will also have a chance...

Of course, this is just Feng Yong's own idea.

As for whether some people in Jincheng have the courage, I don't know.

How did Zhuge Qiao know that there was such a complicated intrigue here?

He was already a little frightened when he heard Feng Yong's words:

"From the clear message, could it be possible that someone in Nanzhong would rebel?"

How could Feng Yong admit it?

Such dark plots will damage the prime minister's glorious image and can only be understood, not spoken of!

He shook his head and said with a smile: "Brother, it is useless to talk about this now. You should continue to talk about the situation in Nanzhong."

It is true that Zhuge Qiao is an honest gentleman, but honesty is not a fool. When he saw Feng Yong's expression, he knew that he had guessed 60-70% right without even saying a word.

Then he continued:

"Actually, someone over at Nanzhong has also written to the Governor's Mansion, saying that the Yi people are very likely to rebel. In addition, I need to know your exact information, so I rushed back to Hanzhong in a hurry."

When Feng Yong heard this, he was a little surprised: "Who?"

"Ma Su."

"It turns out it's him." Feng Yong suddenly realized, "If it's him, it wouldn't be a surprise if he has such vision."

After all, he was once a disciple that Zhuge Laoya valued.

The place where Ma Su was exiled was Yunnan County, one of the three counties that the Han Dynasty did not fully control.

Yunnan County has Yuexun County in the north and Jianning County in the east. Compared with Yongchang and Xinggu County, it is the next most likely control target of the Han Dynasty.

Ma Su took the initiative to be exiled there, which shows that he does have a certain vision.

"Where will there be rebellion in Nanzhong? Did Ma Di say that?"

"Xinggu and the Two Counties of Yunnan."

This is even less surprising.

Again, Yuexun is the territory of the Xinghan Hui. Zhuti County did not rebel when Meng Huo rebelled, and it is even less likely to rebel now.

Ma Zhong was present in Zangke County, and Jianning County was the seat of the Governor-General's Mansion.

Even if it is Yongchang County, it is the same as Zhuti County. When Meng Huo rebelled, he could hold on to his territory and focus on the Han.

The remaining counties are Yunnan and Xinggu counties.

"If my guess is correct, I'm afraid it was also his idea to come back this time, right?"

Zhuge Qiao's face froze, and he hesitated: "He did mention it, but the main thing is that I want to come back..."

At that time, Feng Junhou was very cruel and beat Ma Su until he couldn't take care of himself. He was really unable to take care of himself.

Because after Ma Su was beaten, he fell ill on the bed and almost couldn't breathe his last breath, and his family almost went to mourn.

In addition, both parties kept silent about this matter afterwards, so others naturally did not dare to ask the person involved in person.

Therefore, in the eyes of uninformed outsiders, the grievance between Feng Junhou and Ma Di is very serious.

Zhuge Qiao naturally didn't know the twists and turns involved, so he didn't dare to admit it in front of Feng Yong.

Feng Yong, on the other hand, couldn't help but think of the incident at the street pavilion when he mentioned Ma Di. He still remembered it vividly.

Unfortunately, three years have passed since then.

Time flies, it really does.

"Ma Su, is he okay over there at Nanzhong?"

Feng Junhou asked with emotion.

Zhuge Qiao misunderstood Feng Yong's meaning. He only said that he mentioned Ma Di too much, which reminded Feng Yong of old grudges, and he wanted to make fun of Ma Di.

Then you will really be hurting others.

"Ming Wen, listen to my advice, brother, and let him let go of this past matter. Ma Di has suffered a lot in Nanzhong in recent years."

"Actually, he still has some talent. In the past few years, he has been in Yunnan County, taking the lead in leading the Yi people to the mountains and rivers, and personally teaching the Yi people how to farm."

"Even Grand Administrator Lu (i.e. Lu Kai) publicly praised his extraordinary talents and said that he was quite trusted by the local barbarians in Yunnan."

"This time it was him who sent a message to the Governor's Office in advance to let the Governor's Office be on guard against anyone making trouble."

"With your current status, there is no need to ruin your reputation for him..."

Zhuge Qiao was trying his best to persuade Feng Junhou, but Feng Junhou became more and more strange as he listened:

"Brother, what are you talking about? When did I say that I wanted to embarrass Ma Su? There is no old grudge between me and him. Besides, if he goes to Yunnan and can be used by Prefect Lu, it is my recommendation."

Hearing Feng Yong's words, Zhuge Qiao was immediately dumbfounded:

"You actually have a personal relationship with Ma Su?"

"Ma Su is the Prime Minister's disciple. I am half of the Prime Minister's disciple. Isn't it normal for us to have a personal relationship?"

Feng Junhou said confidently.

"Isn't it a personal hatred?"
