Chapter 25 Don’t worry, he won’t dare

 The city of Liaozhou was shaken.

The gate of the Governor's Mansion was surrounded by people.

Some heads of aristocratic families who knew the inside story jumped out of bed.

The gate of the Governor's Mansion opened, and two guards stood on both sides of the door to act as doormen.

The door extends to the innermost part, and you can see Fang Yuan sitting under the impartial and honest plaque correcting the copy.

Under the slightly dark environment, it was difficult to see Fang Yuan's appearance clearly, but it seemed like a god reflected in everyone's hearts.

"An assassin broke into the Governor's Mansion last night with the intention of assassinating the Governor."

"However, they underestimated the power of our governor's office, and all the assassins were killed by us!"

"To take this as an example, the Governor will reopen the Governor's Office, and all the Governor's officials must report back within one hour, otherwise they will be permanently suspended!"

Zhang San walked out, pointed at the pile of corpses and shouted.

The identity of the pile of corpses on the ground has been identified, but has not been announced.

However, some people have already identified those corpses as a vicious group of bandits from the Taiyuan Mountains, which are very rampant in the Hedong area. Many people have heard of their bad name - Taiyuan Bandits!

Previous governors had sent troops to exterminate them, but they either suffered heavy losses or the other party knew the news in advance and left.

The people at the door were talking a lot, but they didn't dare to raise their voices. The sight of fifty corpses piled up into a hill in front of them was too scary.

Some of these people were watching here yesterday. Yesterday, they thought that Fang Yuan would die soon if he offended the three surnames Yahang and Hedong.

Seeing such a scene now, they couldn't help but sigh. Fang Yuan's two strong performances shocked their hearts, and they had greater expectations in their hearts.

As Zhang San’s words fell.

Some people wearing official clothes squeezed out of the crowd.

They are the former officials of the governor's office, including Bai Yi, Kuai Shou, Jing Kuai, Tang Shi, and Ding.

Zhang San re-registered their identities and found that the highest among them was the official, and there was no official.

Time passes slowly and the sun rises slowly.

More and more people gathered at the door, and more officials returned to report.

The magistrates of Liaoshan County, Yushe County, and Pingcheng County, as well as the chief historian and Sima of the governor's office did not appear.

......

Sanxing Yahang Headquarters, a mansion.

This is a mansion even grander and more solemn than the Governor's Mansion.

This can be said to be the richest place in Liaozhou City besides the wealthy families.

The magistrates of the three counties, as well as the chief historian and Sima of the governor's office, did not go to the governor's office to report, but they were all here.

Among them, there is one person who leads the group, and that is Qin Liangcai, the third master of Yahang with three surnames.

"Please come here first, I am from the three tribes."

"Fang Yuan is too arrogant and rude, and the three tribes don't like him, so they must punish him."

Qin Liangcai smiled coldly.

We prepared wine and food to celebrate last night.

Unexpectedly, Fang Yuan survived and completely killed everyone.

This shocked Qin Liangcai and also shocked how much strength Fang Yuan had hidden.

Except for the thirty guards, the remaining people should not be simple and dare not act rashly.

"Why are you so anxious this time?"

"After all, he is also the governor of a state. On the first day he took office, he blocked the door and showed his authority."

The Liaoshan County Magistrate was the first to speak, with a low tone.

As the largest county in Liaozhou, Liaoshan County has the greatest authority among all.

As a colleague, he felt dissatisfied with the fact that the three tribes did not give him any face.

"When the imperial court appointed him as the governor of Liaozhou, it did not notify the three tribes in advance."

Qin Liangcai explained.

The court's appointment was made without informing the three tribes in advance, and the three tribes felt that their power was being challenged.

At the same time, Fang Yuan was also very rude. Instead of visiting the three clans the first time he took office, he went directly to the Governor's Mansion.

In the early Tang Dynasty, the central government's control over local areas was very weak. Most local areas were controlled by major aristocratic families, and they monopolized powerful positions.

For example, the three county magistrates in Liaozhou and Sima of the Prefectural Governor's Office are all from major aristocratic families. Only the chief historian has no real power.

"What do the three tribes mean now?"

The Liaoshan County Magistrate stopped asking questions and asked the three tribes for their thoughts.

"Didn't he summon you to wait?"

"Don't even go, let him lose face!"

Qin Liangcai sneered.

"This is not good."

"What if he really terminates my job?"

Chief Shi Lu Wenhan interrupted and said sarcastically.

Among everyone, he has no real power and no background.

Therefore, when he learned that Fang Yuan dared to confront the three clans, he was quite afraid of Fang Yuan.

"Does he dare?"

"With your positions suspended, how will the three counties of Liaozhou operate?"

Qin Liangcai sneered.

Several other county magistrates also sneered.

The three counties in Liaozhou have been in their hands for many years and have already been deeply controlled.

What actions the previous governors wanted to take would not have been possible without their approval.

Fang Yuan has just arrived, and he is so stubborn. Without the support of the three tribes and them, he cannot carry out his work.

"This..."

Lu Wenhan is still uneasy.

He was different from the other officials present.

His position as chief historian is to assist the local governor in his affairs.

It can be said that his survival is completely dependent on the governor, and he is useless without the governor.

The deaths of the previous governors of Liaozhou made him realize this deeply. He is different from others.

"Don't worry, Brother Lu, the governor only has the power of suspension but not dismissal."

"Taking a step back, if he really suspends you, someone will definitely take action."

Qin Liangcai smiled and comforted.

Others nodded in agreement.

Lu Wenhan sighed in his heart, but he did not dare to leave like this.

......

The time soon reached noon.

There were actually people surrounding the gate of the Governor's Mansion, and there were even more people, about a thousand people.

If Fang Yuan hadn't roughly understood the situation, he would have thought that they didn't have to work to eat.

In fact, the people in Hedong Road were affected by drought, and they could not cultivate their fields without water.

So that it looks very idle.

In fact, there is nothing you can do about it, just take it one day at a time.

I also saw that the new governor had been appointed, and I wanted to see if the new governor had any good ideas.

At noon, Fang Yuan walked out of the Governor's Mansion, stood by the steps and looked at the people in front of him.

"I am the governor of Liaozhou, Fang Yuan. I believe you all already know this."

"Before this, I was the magistrate of Wuling County in Langzhou. Under my governance, every citizen of Wuling County had enough to eat, was well clothed, and had at least a consistent income of copper coins every year... If you don't believe it,

Feel free to ask."

Fang Yuan said slowly.

Draw a blueprint for the people of Liaozhou.

In an instant, the current people seemed to be brought into it.

The days when they didn't have to go hungry, were well-dressed, and had spare money made their faces flush with happiness.

"But, I was almost killed last night!"

"There are people who don't want me to lead you to live a happy life. What do you think you should do?"

Fang Yuan's momentum dropped and he shouted lowly.

The people at the scene were immediately brought back to reality.

For a moment, they seemed to feel that their beautiful life had been destroyed, and they were angry.

"Kill them!"

"Kill them!"

"Kill them!"

In the crowd, people who had been arranged by Fang Yuan in advance were drinking loudly.

The people were quickly aroused and began to drink.

"Yes, kill them!"

"They have been killed by me, and there is no way to stop me from leading the people of Liaozhou to live a happy life."

"I hereby swear to you that in three months, there will be no more oppression in Liaozhou, and all the people will be able to feed and clothe themselves with their own hands!"

Fang Yuan followed and shouted.

He kicked the corpse next to him.

Seeing that the emotions of the people present were aroused, they made bold and ambitious plans.

"The Governor is mighty!"

"The governor is kind!"

The people shouted again, their faces flushed with excitement.

"I will be the governor of Liaozhou from now on and issue two decrees."

"Article 1: Liaoshan County Magistrate, Yushe County Magistrate, Pingcheng County Magistrate, Liaozhou Sima, Sima is absent from work without excuse and suspended from duty for reflection."

"Article 2: The governor's office recruits three hundred young people with clean family backgrounds to serve as state officials, and they will be paid... one hundred yuan every month!"

Fang Yuan took the opportunity to issue two political orders.

When the first decree was issued, the people were subconsciously afraid.

But after the second decree was issued, the people's fear was dispelled and everyone became excited.

One hundred dollars a month is enough for their family to eat well, and they even have some money left over!

Liaozhou is boiling.
