"Tell the king that everything is well." Cai GUI arched his hand and said.


    "Well?" Tang Yin patted the memorial on the table and said, "but that''s not what the memorial from the heads of Ningdi counties said." He picked up a memorial, opened it and said, "Xiaoling County, three counties under its jurisdiction, has had five rebellions this month."


    He picked up another memorial and continued: "there have been three rebellions in Yunkou county and four counties under its jurisdiction. In addition, I have roughly calculated that there have been no less than 30 rebellions in the eighteen counties of Ningdi alone this month!"


    After saying that, he squinted at Cai GUI with an expression that I see how you explain.


    Cai GUI smiled calmly, say: "The king is worried. These memorials can be read but not read. Many of them are exaggerated. Most of the newly appointed adults are first-time officials and have never seen the world. Even if only three or four people in the jurisdiction get up and make a mess, they will be scared. In addition, it can not be ruled out that some adults are deliberately exaggerating, so as to make it convenient to ask the king and the court for credit in the future. Right The king should have his own judgment on these memorials. "


    Tang Yin narrowed his eyes. Indeed, according to the information sent back by the shadow, some county leaders did write the rebellion in their memorial too seriously, as if the court could not save it.


    He youyou said, "this is also a collective assessment of these new officials. Cai GUI, you have to ask the political participation hall to keep an eye on what officials are competent and what are not competent. Count them all and report them to me."


    "Yes! King!" Cai guizheng said: "in fact, Weichen has already started to let his subordinates do this. After all, the newly appointed County heads and county capitals are selected by the political participation hall. If there are people who are not capable enough and are embarrassed by the important task, the political participation hall will make up for it and find other talents!"


    "Well, you did a good job. You even thought of going in front of me." Tang Yin looked at Cai GUI with a smile and secretly praised Cai GUI. The more people like Cai GUI use it, the better. He was right to let him take charge of the political hall at the beginning.


    He said: "the local rebel forces should not be underestimated. Your Cai family has a deep foundation in Ningdi. You should contribute more to this matter."


    Hearing the speech, Cai GUI quickly bowed down and said, "the Cai family today depends on the grace of the king. The Cai family will never let the king down!"


    Tang Yin nodded and said, "well, there''s nothing else, just go back!"


    "Yes, your majesty! I''m leaving." Cai GUI made a deep salute this time, stepped back two steps, turned and left.


    After Cai GUI left, he sat in his study for a while before returning to his bedroom. At this time, Yan Rou was sitting idly in front of the windowsill in her bedroom.


    Seeing this, Tang Yin smiled on her face, silently walked forward, patted Yan Rou on her shoulder and asked, "what is Rou thinking?"


    Yan Rou was startled by the sudden appearance of Tang Yin, almost screamed, looked back at him, and muttered discontentedly, "I hate it! I want to scare people to death!"


    "I''m busy with government affairs these days. Is rou''er also very boring in the palace?" Tang Yin took her little hand and sat down beside her.


    Yan Rou sighed helplessly, lowered her head and said, "you are busy with important things, and I can''t disturb you..."


    Tang Yin felt pity when he heard what she said. His eyes turned and said, "why don''t we go out of the palace for a few days?"


    Yan Rou''s eyes twinkled and asked with surprise and joy, "can you? Where are you going?"


    Tang Yin smiled up and said, "go to the south. Now all counties are not peaceful. Just listening to others, I don''t know the specific situation. I want to go and have a look in person to see how the situation is."


    "Oh, it was under the guise of taking me on a trip to do official business!" Yan Rou rubbed her chin, tilted her head and peered at Tang Yin.


    Tang Yin was so amused by her lovely appearance that she burst into laughter. She stretched out her hand and took her into her arms. She smiled and asked, "why? Rou''er doesn''t want to go with her husband? Then the husband can only find someone else..."


    Before he finished, Yan Rou shouted impatiently for fear of his repentance: "who said I won''t go! Of course, I''ll go wherever you go, it''s up to you!"


    Tang Yin likes Yin Rou''s simplicity and directness, as well as her lack of affectation, which makes him feel very relaxed. In front of her, he doesn''t need to spend so much effort to guess and calculate.


    His decision to leave the palace and go to the South was a temporary rise, which was not announced to the public. He only told Shangguan Yuanji, Qiu Zhen, Cai GUI and Guyuan to take care of the government on his behalf.


    He and Yin Rou travel in casual clothes, and there are not many people around him. In addition to ah San and ah Si, there are Xiao Min, Ao Qing and Yin LAN. Taking Yin LAN can make it easier for Tang Yin to contact the shadow when traveling. Moreover, she is a woman and it is more convenient to accompany her.


    There were only six people in their line, and they took two carriages. Tang Yin and Yin Rou took one, Xiao Min, Ao Qing and Yin LAN took the other, and ah San and ah Si acted as the coachman of the two carriages.


    Zhenjiang is the capital of the wind country. Of course, there will be no rebellion near Zhenjiang. Looking at it, it is a prosperous scene of national peace and peace, but the more you go south, the scenes you see are very different.


    Fengguo''s governance of Mo Di is not good, and a large number of farmland has been abandoned. It is not that the population of Mo people has decreased sharply, but that the taxes set up by the government are too heavy. The people should not only pay the taxes of the imperial court, but also pay the taxes set up by the county and the county privately. How can the people bear the double taxes or even multiple taxes together? Therefore, many Mo people would rather give up the land left by their ancestors and be displaced to other villages than go home to cultivate land.


    It can be said that the economy of Modi, ruled by the wind country, has not been developed, but has been destroyed to a great extent.


    The more he witnessed the hardships of modi people''s life, Tang Yin also felt that his decision was not wrong. It was not too early to replace local officials now, but too late. He should have replaced those local officials temporarily established in modi as soon as the Fengmo war subsided. In that case, there would be no such tragedy as modi today.


    On this day, Tang Yin and his party entered Liulin County, which is the southern border of Fengguo. Further south, it is Gurao County in Modi, but now it belongs to angoo territory.


    Because Liulin County is located in the southern border, which is far away from emperor Tiangao. It is also the most depressed place Tang Yin saw all the way.


    That afternoon, they arrived at an Cheng, a small town in Liulin County. The streets were deserted, let alone invisible to pedestrians. Even the shops on both sides of the streets were closed. The whole city was horribly silent, as if there were no one dead.


    A cold wind blew and Yan Rou, who got out of the car with Tang Yin, couldn''t help but excite Lingling to fight a cold war and subconsciously grasped his skirt.


    She trembled and said, "Yin, here... Why can''t you even see anyone?"


    Yeah! Tang Yin also felt strange. Although it''s a small town, it''s not even invisible to pedestrians and businesses!


    At this time, Xiao Min, Ao Qing and Yin Lan also got out of the carriage and came to Tang Yin and Yin rou. They looked around and whispered, "is it possible that the city master was too cruel and scared away the people in the city?"


    Along the way, they have not rarely encountered such things, but they have not seen anything as serious as Ancheng.


    Hearing this, Tang Yin''s face became cold and said in a cruel voice, "if this is true, I should peel off the skin of the city master of an city!"


    Yan Rou was startled by his words and subconsciously held Tang Yin''s hand. The latter also realized that he had lost his attitude. He put away the cold and cruel face and patted her on the back of her hand with a smile to show her not to be afraid.


    Walking forward, Tang Yin finally saw a teahouse on the roadside that was open. He took a deep breath and said to Yin Rou, "there''s a teahouse over there. Let''s go and sit down."


    "Good!" Yin Rou promised and walked quickly with Tang Yin.


    Come to the front of the teahouse and look inside. Well, there are no guests in such a large teahouse. Only a young man dressed as a waiter lies down at the counter and takes a nap.


    Tang Yin stepped forward, stood beside the waiter, and then cleared her throat. Unexpectedly, the waiter didn''t respond and lay there motionless. Tang Yin knocked on the counter impatiently and said in a deep voice, "wake up!"


    The waiter, who was sleeping soundly, suddenly cheered up and sat up. His eyes fell on Tang Yin''s face for a while before he realized that it was a guest. He stood up with a smile on his face and said, "I''m really sorry. I fell asleep just now. What do you want to drink..."


    When his eyes saw Yan Rou beside Tang Yin, the whole person was stunned. In the teahouse, he had seen many people, but it was the first time he saw such a beautiful woman in front of him, and he couldn''t help being distracted.


    Seeing this, Tang Yin raised his eyebrows. Before he could speak, ah San and ah Si came in from the outside and stood in front of the waiter like two iron towers, staring at him coldly.


    The waiter finally got back to his senses. He was frightened by the cold expression of ah San and ah Si. He didn''t dare to look at Yan Rou any more, smiled and said, "please come in, please come in!"


    A San and a Si stood up, and the original ground did not move. The four eyes were like four sharp swords. They still stared at the waiter. Tang Yin smiled calmly and asked, "waiter, what about the people in the city? Why can''t you see a pedestrian all the way?"


    "My guest, don''t you know yet?"


    "Know what?"


    "Everyone went to the east city to see the excitement."


    "Oh? What''s so exciting?" Tang Yin helped Yin Rou sit down and asked curiously.


    "Today is the day for the newly appointed county head to cut off the city master. It''s estimated that he will start cutting at noon." The waiter shrugged and said disapprovingly.
