Li Hao was not surprised at all when Wei Hongda and Dai Zhou arrived in Yin Ye. He was not a rich man. In ancient times, he did not give any funds for business trips, so it was normal to come here to find a place to live.

But whether it was Wei Hongda or Dai Zhou, the two of them had a strange expression. After the greetings, Li Hao asked in surprise: "What's wrong with you, you two? But are you too tired on the road?"

Wei Hongda blinked and didn't say anything. He came here to be accused, so of course he didn't have a good face to give Li Hao.

Seeing this, Dai Zhou could only speak on his own initiative: "Mr. Li, when we entered the city before, we saw many people living besieged in the city. After inquiring, I heard that it was your intention, but I don't know..."

Li Hao showed a sudden look: "Oh, you said this, isn't it for the convenience of work? Besides, Guanzhong is currently suffering from severe drought, and Qishan can only rely on digging wells to solve the problem of water shortage. If the people live too scattered, the county does not have such great ability to dig out so many wells."

Dai Zhou nodded, understanding that what Li Hao was talking about was the truth.

Wei Hongda, who was on the side, said at this time: "But the people live in such a dense amount, have you never considered the spread of the plague? If there is an epidemic, how do you solve it?"

Li Hao had known Wei Hongda's personality for a long time. He smiled slightly and said, "Just keep the environment sanitation. The resettlement sites outside the city are divided into nearly 100 areas. Each area has public toilets and a dedicated person is responsible for environmental sanitation. He does not drink raw water, does not urinate or defecate anywhere, and garbage is specially piled up. Whoever does not handle the matter according to regulations will be disqualified from his salary."

After listening to Li Hao's explanation, Wei Hongda blinked and felt that he could not find any fault at all. He basically considered the people he could think of, and the people he didn't expect also.

Seeing that the old man stopped talking, Li Hao shrugged his shoulders and said to the imperial guard standing beside him: "General Chang, brothers have been tired for several days. Since they have arrived in Qishan, they will have a good rest for a night and the safety work will be temporarily taken care of by my guards. What do you think?"

General Chang, whose surname is Chang He, was Li Er's confidant, and was also the former benefactor of Ma Zhou.

The change in Xuanwu Gate was that he was guarding the Xuanwu Gate and did not let any of the hidden kings enter the city. Otherwise, it would be hard to say whether Li Er could accomplish anything.

This time he was sent to take charge of the safety of Dai Zhou and Wei Hongda, which shows how much His Majesty the Emperor attaches importance to these two people.

Although Chang He and Li Hao didn't know each other, they were both military veins and they were kissing each other without a knife. They said with a smile: "Then the relationship is good. Governor Li's Marine Brigade has a few elite troops in our Tang Dynasty. If they are responsible for safety work, Chang can rest with confidence."

After settling down the guards Chang He and him brought, Li Hao looked at Wei Hongda and Dai Zhou again: "The two imperial envoys are working hard all the way. If you don't mind, you will rest for a night here tonight. How about I take you two to the Qizhou Prefecture tomorrow?"

"Okay, I'm so troubled by Hou Li." Dai Zhou nodded in a good manner, and pulled Wei Hongda, who was a little unkind, and left Li Hao's room.

...

There was nothing to say all night. The next morning, when Li Hao got up, Wei and Dai had already packed up and waited in the yard.

Dai Zhou looked indifferent and was talking to Xi Junmai, while Wei Hongda was full of bitterness and revenge. He looked up at the sky at 45 degrees, wondering what he was thinking.

"You two, have you eaten?" Li Hao greeted him.

"It's used." Wei Hongda turned his head and said, "When will we leave?"

How did this old guy get to the fifth-grade position? Li Er can persist until now and has not cut him down. I have to say that he is really energetic. Dai Zhou is not an ordinary person who can walk along with him.

Li Hao smiled indifferently and took the lead in walking towards the parked carriage in the yard: "Since that's the case, let's go."

The people were still those, but there were more Li Hao and more than twenty guards. Everyone rushed out of the yard of the original government army and followed the official road toward the direction of the city.

On the road, you can see that the originally low riverbed has now been dug several feet deep, and piles of river sand are piled up on the river bank.

This scene made Wei Hongda feel moved. He stared at Li Hao on the opposite side and asked, "Mr. Li, I want to know how much food is left in Qishan, and how long can you last according to the way you deliver the food now."

Li Hao knew what Wei Hongda wanted to ask, and thought about it and said, "Not talking about Qishan, the entire Qizhou, on average, it will probably not last for a month."

"That means that in one month, the entire Qizhou will have no food to be distributed, right?" Wei Hongda's old face sank and pointed outside and said, "Are you not afraid of a civil rebellion when the time comes?"

Li Hao shook his head and asked, "Why are there any civil unrest? It's nearly a month left. It's not a big problem to buy some food for such a long time to transport it in?"

"To put it nicely, let's not talk about whether you can transport so much food. Even if you can transport it in, what should other prefectures do? You, the prince of the Duke of Wei and the founding county, can you watch the people of other prefectures struggle on the line of life and death and ignore it!" Wei Hongda stared at Li Hao angrily, with a stern tone, and did not care at all that his official position was actually not as high as the other party.

Li Hao had no good feelings for Wei Hongda, and the reason for receiving him was only for Li Er's sake.

Now that the other party pointed at the nose and questioned him, he felt a little unhappy and sneered: "If you are not in your position, you will not do your politics. What should your Majesty and the court consider in Guanzhong? I am just a teenage kid. It would be great if I can protect the safety of Qizhou. Guanzhong... What does Guanzhong have to do with me?

Moreover, before you always question me, it is best to go to other state prefectures to investigate and see what they are doing now.

When I went to other prefectures, my food was blocked by other prefectures you mentioned. Why don’t you care about this? When I was in Weizhou, I made a bin for carrying water and spread out all the created drawings. But if you go to other places in Guanzhong, I will see which state has made it according to the drawings.

One by one, just thinking about taking advantage of me, my money was not caused by the strong wind, so why did I ask me to spend money to solve the problem?"

Wei Hongda was speechless after being criticized, and opened his mouth several times without saying a word.

He knew some of the problems Li Hao said, but he really didn't know some of them.

People like him will always live in an ideal state. To put it nicely, they are called stubborn, and to put it badly, they are stupid.

Seeing that the atmosphere in the carriage was not right, Dai Zhou hurriedly interrupted and said, "Mr. Li, don't be angry. The purpose of our visit this time is to investigate this matter."

"What else are you investigating? Are you here to investigate me?" Li Hao did not give Dai Zhouchengzi and said bluntly: "Don't think that I don't know what happened in Chang'an because Qizhou is not aware of what happened in Chang'an. It's really interesting to say that I am corrupt and abused the law, bribing the government, and private equity, and strong private equity. Oh, I'm so puzzled. Why don't you say that I'm buying the hearts of the people and wanting to rebel? How creative is it. Let Your Majesty kill me directly with an order."

It is rare to complain organically, and Li Hao took the opportunity to vent all the depression he had held in his heart for this period of time.

The left and right Wei Hongda and Dai Zhou also came to cause trouble for themselves. It doesn’t matter whether they give them face or not. Anyway, I don’t expect them to say that they are good after they go back.

Dai Zhou felt very wronged. He obviously did nothing, but came to Qizhou just to go through a formality, but Li Hao was scolded. The taste was really unspeakable.

On the other hand, Wei Hongda, who was angry at the same time, turned red with anger. After all, he was also a dignified censor. Although he only had one more word "文" than an ordinary censor, he was qualified to be a companion.

Besides, even when Li Er was impeached by him, he didn't use any words to squeeze him out. Now he was scolded by Li Hao, a young young man, and he was a little embarrassed and felt offended.

At this moment, Wei Hongda slapped the carriage and roared: "Sanyuan County Hou, don't force it. Not to mention that you set up a private prison hall to kill Qishan County Magistrate first, and collude with the government and private equity to strengthen the people. Just saying that the children of aristocratic families are detained for no reason and that the aristocratic families are unforgivable, and if this causes the country to turmoil, it will be a big blame for the death."

The conflict broke out inexplicably, and suddenly Dai Zhou couldn't react at all. When he wanted to speak, Li Hao had already stopped the carriage and said with a cold face: "Old man named Wei, I said why did you come from Chang'an to Qizhou? The relationship is to be a dog for the aristocratic family, right?"

Wei Hongda pointed at Li Hao and said, "You fart, why don't I be that kind of person?"

"You don't think of that kind of person. The eyes of the masses are sharp. Cui, Li, and Lu are bullying me for young people and sending people to Qizhou to seize the robbery. What's wrong with me? What's wrong with detaining them? The aristocratic family is dissatisfied. I want to see how the aristocratic family is dissatisfied and dares to provoke national turmoil. Do you really think that the aristocratic family is unfavorable?!"

"You..." Wei Hongda's face turned from red to white, obviously very angry, pointed at Li Hao's fingers and trembled: "Okay, okay, Li Dejian, who do you think you are? Do you think your Majesty is pampering you, so you can really do whatever you want in the Tang Dynasty?"

From the heart, he does mean to stand up for the aristocratic family, but the reason is not as simple as Li Hao said.

At that time in Chang'an, he didn't plan to take care of Qizhou. He even felt very happy when he heard that Li Hao set up a private execution hall and killed Zheng Keshuang.

But since the Lu family and Cui family sent someone to find him, his ideas have changed.

That is the top family of the Tang Dynasty, with disciples and officials all over the court and the country. You are good and I am good on weekdays and you can't see anything, but if these people really have two hearts, it will definitely be a big turmoil for the Tang Dynasty.

If they don’t even have to cause trouble, they just simply hang the seal, and the lower-level officials will be able to lose half of them.

Don’t mention whether it is irresponsible. In ancient times, there was no such thing as modern times. At that time, there was no civil servant establishment. Local officials were of no rank and no level. What could you do to them if they really quit?

All arrested and sentenced?

Stop hiding.

If you want to arrest someone, you have to arrest someone. If you don’t do the arrest, you can’t take it yourself. What’s more, the county magistrate doesn’t do it anymore. If you want to arrest someone, you can’t take it yourself. What’s more, the county magistrate himself may not do it.

Imagine that all the officials at the bottom ran away, and there was not even a person in the entire yamen to do business. Whoever went down to collect taxes, who would maintain public order, who would register and register the people, what would you do if you buy and sell land, and what would you do if you conscription and pensions?

If a country is compared to a building, those grassroots officials are equivalent to the foundation of the building. If the foundation is gone, what can it be if it is built on it? It is still necessary to be dumped.

It is precisely because of this that Wei Hongda could not sit still. Although he knew that the whole thing was done by a noble family, he still had to write a letter to impeach Li Hao according to their wishes.

Although it is somewhat contrary to his principles, the two evils are less serious. One Li Hao is nothing compared to the stability of the entire Tang Dynasty.

Li Hao didn't know that there were so many stories in it. In his opinion, Wei Hongda was just a false reputation. When facing the old man, he curled his lips disdainfully: "Yes, if your Majesty spoiled me, you can do whatever you want. What can you do? If you don't like it, go and impeach me."

"You, you..." Wei Hongda was about to be mad and shouted: "Come, come, come, arrest this guy who is unrighteous. I will personally escort him to Chang'an for trial."

Chang He had heard the quarrel between Li Hao and Wei Hongda before, but he didn't expect that things would develop to this point. Faced with Wei Hongda's orders, he was not going to execute them, nor was he going to not execute them.

After looking at Li Hao who was indifferent, Chang He hesitated after weighing the pros and cons, "Censor of the Wei, we are here to protect your safety, and the arrest of people is not our responsibility."

Dai Zhou also stepped forward and advised: "The Censor of the Wei Dynasty, Mr. Li cannot be arrested at the moment. More than 100,000 people in Qizhou are still counting on him for dinner. If you arrest him, will the people start to make trouble?"

Thinking of the respectful and admiring tone of the people outside the city and the yamen runners who spoke Li Hao before entering the city last night, Wei Hongda knew that Dai Zhou's words were true. If he captured this kid at this time, he was afraid that they would not even be able to get out of Qishan County.

"Okay, okay, since I don't want to be a villain, then I will do this villain." Wei Hongda pointed at him angrily, and finally his finger fell on Li Hao: "Li Dejian, remember, I will not stop doing this matter with you. I will report all your words and deeds to Your Majesty. You... Let's see how long you can be arrogant."

"It won't be a long time for you to worry about it." Li Hao raised his eyebrows and said, "But I'll go to Chen Cang later. If you want to report my words and deeds to Your Majesty, I'm afraid it will be a little harder."

"Hmph, I put my words here today. I will go wherever you go. Let's see if you can exhaust me."
