"The Feng family has started...but this time, I didn't expect to lose a minister... Wang Xu managed Mocheng County very well...!" Li Shimin's face was a little dark.

"Indeed... in the past two years, Wang Xu's assessment in the Ministry of Personnel has been ranked first... This year is his last year in Mocheng County. When he came back, the Ministry of Personnel was preparing to promote his official position, but who knows."

Changsun Wuji lowered his head slightly.

"It's simply lawless..." Li Shimin stood up from his chair: "This is openly trying to oppose me..."

"This can also show the urgency of the Feng family. I see if this means that Feng Ang is no longer able to do it... Otherwise, they wouldn't be so blatant. You must know that the Taiyuan Wang family was also very angry this time...!"

But Li Shimin shook his head: "According to the tips, Feng Ang has no disease. The reason why they dared to do this is very simple. He knew that the emperor of Lingnan was far away and believed that I could not deal with them at this time, so he was like this.

As long as the person they kill is more important, then they can put pressure on me. The Taiyuan Wang family has already submitted ten submissions to let me send troops to Lingnan...!"

"What should we do when your Majesty?" Changsun Wuji looked at Li Shimin and asked.

"It's very simple..." Li Shimin looked at the direction of Dunhuafang: "Let the Shizi take action."

....................................

The rebellions of the Liao people in the Tang Dynasty were very frequent. Of course, these resistances and riots were not entirely caused by the unilateral reasons of the Liao people. Many officials in the Tang Dynasty who governed the throne of the throne regarded themselves as the Celestial Kingdom and looked down on the Liao people in their bones. When dealing with ethnic affairs, they often liked to use simple and crude high-pressure methods, which inspired ethnic conflicts.

Therefore, after several rebellions of Liaoren, Li Shimin personally issued an edict to the officials who governed the jailed prefectures and said: "Liu is in danger and should be defeated with kindness and trust. He threatens him with military power, and is it a parent's wish?" After Li Shimin's repeated warnings and serious handling of a group of corrupt officials who oppressed Liaoren, the conflict between the two sides eased, but ease did not mean peace.

Most of the Liao people live in mountains and their economy is relatively backward. Once they encounter local officials of the Tang Dynasty who collude with the Liao leaders and violate the law, they often have a rebellion.

For example, in the fifteenth year of Zhenguan, when the governor of Changzhou distributed rice for disaster relief, he released grain in a small dou. Less than half of the gains from the governor of Changzhou and the leader of the local leader of the Liao people.

Under the leadership of Shi Ai, the Liaoren attacked Changzhou, Zipu and Tongzhou granaries and robbed the government's grain and rice. The Tang Dynasty had to send troops to suppress it. The Jiannan Jiedushi personally surrendered Shi Ai and removed the governor of Changzhou, which put the riot down.

At this time, the Tang Dynasty's governance of Liao people was a binary governance model with carrots and sticks. It set up an administrative region under a unified system, and included the areas inhabited by Liao people into the territory of the Tang Dynasty. Liao people were also effectively governed by the court, which was of historical significance to the stability of the Tang Dynasty's border areas and the expansion of its territory.

Under the rule of the Tang Dynasty, some of the Liao people who lived with the Han people were gradually assimilated by the Han people and became a member of the Han family. Another part of the Liao people also broke through the restrictions of the tribe and developed towards the path of forming a single ethnic group, gradually forming today's ethnic minorities such as the Gelao and Buyi people.

In the process of accepting the rule of the Tang Dynasty, the Liaoren also learned the advanced science and technology and culture of the Han people. Although some discordant factors arose in this cultural exchange, it was just a period of cultural acceptance and adaptation and cultural conflict. The final result still made the Liaoren bid farewell to the history of slash-and-burn farming and embark on a civilized society.

Of course, it is the end, and it is not the end at this time. At this time, the evil people were not honest under the control of the Feng family, so Li You still needed to take action.

Dunhuafang... In the kitchen of Li You's house, Li Xiang was sitting next to Li You, Li Jue and Li Heng were lying on Li You, and Li Mingda sat on the other side. At this time, there was a small coal stove in front of Li Mingda, and a chicken soup dumpling was boiled on the coal stove. Li Mingda liked to eat this kind of hot dumplings, and scooped dumplings while steaming.

The scene is very warm. Li Xiang and Li Jue, who have been living with Li You for several months, really fell in love with this uncle because they could feel that Li You is really good to them. They lived a carefree life in Dunhuafang.

Although their father died, their father never gave them fatherly love. Instead, after coming to Dunhuafang, Li You gave them a strong fatherly love.

In particular, Li Xiang felt very strong. She sat on the side and watched Li You tell stories to him, younger brothers, sisters and aunts. Li Xiang felt very happy. This was the image of his father he wanted.

"Is the evil people bad?" At this time, Li You looked at Li Jue and Li Heng and asked.

"Bad..." Li Jue and Li Heng quickly answered loudly.

Just now, Li You told Li Xiang and others about the rebellion and killing Wang Xu. When he heard that Liaoren had killed the ministers of the court, the three little guys were immediately indignant.

"Uncle... Xiang'er will definitely learn knowledge well and govern the Tang Dynasty in the future..." Li Xiang even stood up and bowed to Li You, saying his determination.

Seeing Li Xiang's sensible appearance, Li You smiled and touched Li Xiang's little head and said, "Xiang'er is the most obedient, just study well, and my uncle will definitely give you the opportunity to govern your affairs in the future..."

"Yeah..." After receiving Li You's praise, Li Xiang's entire little eyes lit up.

Then Li You looked at Li Jue and Li Heng and asked, "Heng'er, Jue'er, are you two willing to contribute to the governing officials of the Tang Dynasty?"

"Will..." Li Heng and Li Jue raised their hands high and loudly and answered according to the answer designed by Li You.

After Li Heng and Li Jue finished answering, Li You on the side looked at Li Mingda who was eating chicken soup dumplings and asked: "Where is the Silky... I must have been favored by the emperor, and I believe that like your nephew and nieces, I am willing to contribute to the Tang Dynasty's governance, right?"

"I don't want to..."

Li You was stunned by it, but he didn't expect that he would wait for such an answer. Li You smiled bitterly: "Have you heard the news?"

"Are you a lobbyist?" Li Mingda ate another dumpling on his own.

"I'm not a lobbyist, I can only be considered a business person with you. Let me tell you this, Lingnan I want... Although others don't look at that place, I think it's good.

That's what my father meant."

"You are stupid, you want Lingnan... That place has high mountains and deep waters, no fields or land, and only a fool will want it..." Li Mingda frowned.

"Hehe...!" Li You laughed at this time: "You don't know anything about this. Lingnan is not a bad place. On the contrary, if it can be used by me, I will build it into the most prosperous country there."

When Li Mingda heard about Lingnan, he refused from the bottom of his heart. This was actually consistent with his cognition at that time. Lingnan was sparsely populated and weeds grew. The reason why Lingnan became a place where many officials were exiled was because of its desolation.

Lingnan is the southernmost part, and in the south of the Yangtze River, it is a prosperous place. Except for the Jiangnan region, other parts are positioned as "the land of the southern barbarians" by the ancients. The ancients believed that the people of the "the land of the southern barbarians" lived in poverty, their economic development had been stagnant for a long time and were even in a living environment similar to the primitive life. The people of the "the land of the southern barbarians" were rude and rude, and they were also very chaotic because of the economic development.

Lingnan is usually where demoted officials are located, but many officials die on the way to Lingnan due to long-distance running and chaotic road security.

Officials who can reach Lingnan are generally discouraged and do not think about developing their place, because they are no longer valued by the state, so they have to just live by themselves.

Due to the inaction of officials, some poor people wanted to rob or revolt to attract the attention of the court. The uprisings were usually injured by riots and locals in Lingnan.

In ancient times, the imperial court rarely cared about these remote areas. As long as the riots were not big enough, the riots would sooner or later stop.

Moreover, the people in the court would not think about developing the economy of Lingnan, thinking that it is only part of the territory, and its people's prosperity has nothing to do with themselves, so it is better to develop a prosperous place.

The ancient pattern was like this: rich places became richer and richer, the court paid more and more attention to rich places, and poor places became poorer, because the court invested resources to rich places.

But is Lingnan really a barren land?

Of course the answer is not. As early as the Warring States Period, the Baiyue Land of Lingnan was an important trading partner of Chu. In addition to "tea crystal", many luxury raw materials that were popular in the aristocratic circles of various countries were produced in Lingnan.

For example, in "Zhun Nanzi: The Secretariat of the World" mentioned that "The Emperor of Qin also favored the Rhino horns, elephant teeth, jade, and pearls, and sent Wei Tu Ju to send 500,000 soldiers."

Baiyue not only has rich local resources, but also has considerable maritime trade with South Asia and Southeast Asia because it is located near the sea. In recent years, Baiyue stone tools unearthed from Taiwan, the Philippines and other places, as well as beads unearthed in Guangzhou that combine West Asian crafts and ancient Indian agate, are strong proof.

It can be said that the booming development of handicrafts in the Central Plains is inseparable from the support of Lingnan as a raw material production place and logistics transit station.

There is also miasma. In fact, the so-called miasma, in traditional Chinese medicine, mainly refers to the toxic gases that can cause human diseases in the mountains and forests in southern China, and people will suffer from malaria when they touch it. Because there are many mountainous forest areas in the southern region, many dampness and heat, and many mosquitoes, it has become a natural soil for malaria transmission.

In ancient times, medical conditions were very limited. In the face of diseases like malaria, most doctors could only hold their fists and say "I'm disturbed, say goodbye."

But Li You is different. Li You can go to Hyundai and buy medicines that specialize in treating malaria, so miasma is not a threat to Li You.

Famous beads, fragrant medicines, ivory, rhinoceros horns, corals, glass, peacocks, war horses, etc. These are specialties from Lingnan and will also become specialties of Li You.
