Chapter 295: The Grand Resolution of Two County

After pacifying Yue, the Yue region needs to be arranged. There are only two counties in Yue State, one is Kuaiji and the other is the South China Sea. However, these two counties span the entire Deng State, starting from the Yangtze River in the north and ending at the South China Sea in the south, and the north and south are thousands of miles long. Therefore, Deng Sheng divided Ji County into Jiangdong Road and Nanhai County into Jingnan Road. However, this is also temporary. After taking over Shu Kingdom and Nanguo in the future, Deng Sheng will re-dividing them.

However, it was still too early to destroy Shu and the Southern Kingdom. Deng had just faced pressure. Taking advantage of the weakness of Qin and Zhao was busy pacifying the Central Plains and looking south, he destroyed Yue and pacified the entire Yue territory. He still needed to recover his vitality. Moreover, Deng Sheng had a premonition that if Deng wanted to take over the land of Shu and the Southern Kingdom safely, he would definitely have to fight Qin and Zhao first, otherwise Qin and Zhao would not watch Deng take over the entire south, so Deng Sheng would have to prepare for war with Qin and Zhao at any time.

However, the most urgent task is to arrange the prefects of Kuaiji and Nanhai counties to get the two counties on the right track as soon as possible. The ministers also have different opinions about the position of the prefects of the two counties. Yue Fei proposed that Yang Tinglin be the prefect of Kuaiji because Yang Tinglin took the initiative to surrender to Deng State and made great contributions to the purging of Shanyue. Moreover, Yang Tinglin be the prefect of Kuaiji, which is easy to attract the hearts of Shanyue people.

However, the Secretary of the State Reign of Jiang Wan disagreed with this because Yang Tinglin had a high prestige in Shanyue. If Yang Tinglin was appointed as the prefect of Kuaiji, it would be easy to encourage the power of the Yang family. In time, once the Yang family's ambitions expanded, there would be chaos in Kuaiji. Therefore, Jiang Wan suggested selecting officials from the court to serve as the prefect of the two counties.

Deng Sheng carefully considered the opinions of Yue Fei and Jiang Wan, but in the end he was inclined to Jiang Wan. After all, the Yang family is the largest clan of Shanyue and has been the leader of Shanyue for hundreds of years. If Yang Tinglin was appointed as the prefect of Kuaiji, he would be given Yang Tinglin to command the various clans of Shanyue in the name. In this way, Kuaiji might become the Yang family. After all, there are hundreds of thousands of Shanyue people in Kuaiji.

However, when Deng Sheng planned to select officials to go south, no one was willing to go to Kuaiji and the South China Sea. The reason was that the two places were poor and there were many alien races. Except for the better north of Kuaiji, other places were also worse than Lingling and Guiyang counties. Moreover, there were hundreds of thousands of Shanyue people in Kuaiji, and their lives were no longer safe, so they were unwilling to do so.

Deng Sheng was very annoyed by this, but he was helpless. After all, in Kuaiji, the South China Sea is not an economic zone in later generations. Kuaiji and the South China Sea are very poor now, with few arable land and few people. The people are tough, so ordinary people are unwilling to go.

After returning to Ganyang Palace, Deng Sheng was still considering the candidates for the prefects of the two counties, but he couldn't find a suitable candidate. It would be impossible to let the ministers in the court recommend themselves. In the end, Deng Sheng planned to start the summoning.

Just as Deng Sheng was about to call, the eunuch came to report and Deng Hao asked for a meeting. Deng Sheng had to suspend the summoning first and let Deng Hao come in.

"My son is paying homage to my father!" Deng Hao walked into Ganyang Palace and bowed to Deng Sheng.

Deng Sheng nodded and said, "Get up, is there anything wrong with you coming?"

Deng Hao nodded and said, "Go back to my father, my son is here for the affairs of the prefect of Kuaiji and the South China Sea." Deng Hao also participated in the whole process of the court meeting today. He also knew that Deng Sheng was worried about the candidates for the prefect of the two counties.

Deng Sheng sighed and said, "Hao'er, you also see today that all civil and military officials are far away from Kuaiji and Nanhai. For a moment, I can't find a suitable candidate. Do you have a candidate?"

"Yes, Father!" Deng Hao said: "Father, Kuaiji, the South China Sea are all wilderness. It is understandable that the adults in the court are unwilling to go, but they are unwilling to go, but there are some people who are willing to go."

"Oh, let's talk about it." Deng Sheng was a little interested. Deng was a royal family, but since Deng Yong's death, the power of the royal family in politics has become weaker and weaker, so Deng Sheng did not think of choosing from the royal family for a while. Now that Deng Hao has proposed it, he must have considered it.

Deng Hao replied: "Father, the second son of the late Uncle Wang, Deng Yong, Deng Song, and the eldest son of Anyang Jun Mansion, Deng Bei, are the best in my royal family. My son has also personally inspected it. There is indeed something extraordinary. Since the civil and military officials in the south are unwilling to go south now, then let me go to the Deng family. After all, this world is also my Deng family."

In fact, the reason why Deng Hao came to recommend the royal family was also entrusted by some of the elders of the royal family. Since Deng Yong passed away, the royal family has no one to bear the tripod in the court. Apart from a Nanyang prefect, the Deng royal family has never seen anyone in the political arena. Nanyang is the private land of the Deng family, and the Deng family has always been able to serve as the prefect. In addition, this is the capital, so he chose the prefect at random when he first chose the prefect and his ability was not very good. Therefore, the Deng family wanted to take the prefect position in the two southern counties and enhance his strength in the political arena.

Deng Sheng was also a little moved. Although he still had the four dimensions of later generations and advocated the principle of talent, in this era, no one was more reliable than the family members. Although there might be some scumbags in the family members, it cannot be denied that no one in the Deng Kingdom would be more concerned about the Deng family country than the royal family.

So Deng Sheng nodded and said, "Since Hao'er admires these two people so much, then find some time to bring them to me for a while."

When Deng Hao heard this, he was overjoyed and said, "Father, the two uncles of the king are already waiting outside the palace to be summoned. If the father is willing, the son will bring them in."

"Then let them come in." Since the person has arrived, then meet him.

"Here!" Deng Hao responded and walked out. He soon walked in with two middle-aged men. After they came in, they saluted Deng Sheng and said, "My minister Deng Song (Deng Bei) pays homage to the king, the king has been thousands of years!"

When the two of them came in, Deng Sheng called out the system to detect the four-dimensional two people.

"Deng Song, force: 62, commander: 70, intelligence: 82, politics: 89

Deng Bei, force: 70, commander: 63, intelligence: 84, politics: 91”

Seeing the four dimensions of the two, Deng Sheng nodded silently. Both of them were very good and were considered the best in the current royal family, so he said, "Get up."

"Thank you, King!" The two of them responded and stood up.

Deng Sheng looked at the two and said, "I heard from the eldest prince that you are willing to go south to serve as the prefect of Kuaiji and Nanhai counties. I wonder if it is true?"

Deng Song and Deng Bei nodded and said, "Yes, the king, we are willing to go south."

Deng Sheng said again: "Do you know that Kuaiji and the South China Sea are wilderness, poor mountains and rivers, and strong people. The ministers in the court kept their distance from this."

Deng Song and Deng Bei nodded and said, "I know, but as people of the Deng family, we should serve the Great Deng. Since people from other families do not want to go, let us Deng family go. We must let the people in the world know that I, Deng family, have people who dare to take responsibility."

"Okay!" Deng Sheng praised. After many years, the Deng family finally produced a hero again. Over the years, Deng Sheng has not used the Deng family very much. It is not because he is afraid of the royal family, but because the Deng family really has no talent that can be used. It is just Deng Qiang who summoned him himself. It is really too difficult. Now that two more have finally produced, Deng Sheng is also very happy.

So he said, "Since that's the case, I will issue an edict tomorrow to appoint Deng Bei as the prefect of Kuaiji and Deng Song as the prefect of the South China Sea. I will go to the two counties soon."

There is a reason for this arrangement. Deng Bei's politics is higher than Deng Song. The situation in Kuaiji is complicated and requires relatively high politics to govern. The South China Sea is adjacent to the southern country, so Deng Sheng chose Deng Song, who has a higher command, to go to the South China Sea.

After hearing this, the two responded in unison: "Thank you, King!"
