At 3:00 am on May 29, Lin Feng officially sat in the hall for the first time. As the governor of a state, he met with the former Shouzhou team, engaged in the Shi Jieyun, Wei Zongcheng, Sima Changyanfang, Sigong, Sicang, Sihu, Sihan, Sihan, and Sishi Liu joined the army. In addition, the county magistrate, county magistrate, chief clerk, county magistrate, county magistrate, county magistrate, county magistrate, and county magistrate, and county magistrate, and county magistrate, and county magistrate, and county magistrate, and a total of 30 participants were present.

When these people walked into the lobby of the governor's mansion with trepidation, the on-site arrangement in front of them gave them the first impact:

In the inner circle, five long tables were arranged into a four-sided "mouth" character. On the table were folded into famous brands with white paper, which were written on it, name of Jie Yun, Wei Zongcheng, Chang Yanfang and the five county magistrates; the outer circle, east, west and north, each facing two rows of tables, which were naturally the remaining seats.

What made these big men wonder was that there was a black cloth standing in front of the tall governor's desk, which seemed to be blocking something.

These big guys had just sat down, and Lin Feng, dressed in a purple governor's robe, walked out of the back hall, followed by Xi Mucheng, Lu Jiang, Zhao Zanting, Zhao Tianba, Wu Qiao, Zhao Chengyu and others.

Lin Feng smiled and walked to the north of the "mouth" table. He bowed deeply and said loudly: "Lin apologizes here. A few days ago, Lin was sent to Liao by the Emperor. Now he has finally completed his mission and rushed to Shouzhou. He cannot meet all his brothers as soon as possible. It is Lin's rudeness, so he will apologize to everyone."

"You are polite to the governor." The local officials at the meeting did not expect that Lin Feng's first meeting was not as aggressive as he imagined, but rather, he looked approachable. He was stunned. He quickly stood up and bowed to the unreasonable young governor.

"I am obeying the order of the saint, Lin has decided to establish the Zhongdu Governor's Office in Shouzhou. From today on, the Zhongdu Governor's Office, the Governor's Office, and the Regiment Commissioner's Office work together. This is Ximucheng, the Chief of the Zhongdu Governor's Office, and the Deputy Chief of Shi Lu Jiang..." Lin Feng smiled and turned sideways to formally introduce Ximucheng and others to the local officials of Shouzhou.

Although the chief secretary Wei Zongcheng and others smiled and clasped their fists and said unnutritional clichés such as "I admire you for a long time, congratulations, congratulations", their hearts trembled: What does this mean? Is Lin Feng going to use these people to directly replace everyone else?

At this time, Lin Feng spoke: "Although the three governments work together, they will each take responsibility and cooperate with each other. There are no outsiders here. Lin might as well say bluntly that the emperor sent Lin to Shouzhou to perform his duties and serve as the Central Governor. His main responsibility is to defend the attack from the north. This will be the most important task of Shouzhou this year and next year, and it must not be slackened at all. Therefore, Shouzhou military is mainly responsible for the Central Governor's Office and the Shouzhou Prefecture; Shouzhou civil affairs are mainly responsible for Shouzhou Prefecture and the Central Governor's Office; Lin himself is directly responsible for the Central Governor's Office, and Shouzhou Prefecture assists from the side. The three governments have their own primary and secondary tasks. At the same time, each government can raise objections to the other two governments, and can ask Lin to mediate in the middle."

Listening to Lin Feng's talk, Wei Zongcheng had already breathed a sigh of relief when he heard the Shouzhou civil affairs supervisor, but when he heard Lin Feng's last words, he suddenly felt a little nervous. There were so many things in this sentence.

Lin Feng was not in the mood to guess what these people were thinking, and stood up and said slowly: "The reason why Shouzhou made a bad reputation in the Tang Dynasty was that the people were resentful and the military was not good, because his ex-girlfriend Liu Yanzhen had no people or country in his heart, only personal desires and personal interests.

The accumulated tragedy in Shouzhou has reached this point. Apart from the personal quality of Liu Yanzhen, it also has a lot to do with the governor of a state, no one can restrain his behavior. However, everyone here, although they are all Shouzhou officials, cannot exert any influence on Liu Yanzhen's behavior of harming the people."

Don't be engaged in Shi Jieyun's heart was cold when he heard this. Lin Feng finally showed his fox's tail and still wanted to settle the old accounts with everyone. However, Lin Feng's next words were beyond his expectations.

"Mr. Lin thought about this issue carefully during his journey to Liao. How to ensure that an official truly works for the people and for the country. Lin thought of the great success of the supermarket in Jinling City, and finally figured out: the official's self-cultivation and moral self-discipline are certainly an important factor, but a fair, transparent, and truly binding system is the most critical point." Lin Feng stroked the wounds in his ribs with his hands, slowly paced in the hall, and also attracted everyone's eyes.

"The reason why the Anfengtang incident can be concealed for many years, harming the people, and eventually forced people to die, and forced people to go to Beijing to sue the imperial court because Liu Yanzhen used his hands to cover the sky in Shouzhou, blocking the sunshine of justice, and making Shouzhou dark as dark. In the supermarket in Jinling City, all accounts are open, and any shareholder can check the accounts at any time; any clerk can also make development suggestions and accuse some evil behaviors at any time, so the supermarket business can flourish.

From here, Lin thought that if something like Anfengtang transforms water from channels and privately sells farmland, it can be placed in advance under the sun and in front of the public, so that the owners of the original farmland, bystanders, and suggestions can be participated, publicly discuss the views of all parties, and finally reach a consensus before implementing it, can this kind of bad thing that ultimately destroys the public's interests due to personal privacy?"

Lin Feng's words were both slow and slow, but they were like invisible thunders slamming into the hearts of Shouzhou officials attending the meeting. Jie Yun even stared at Lin Feng with wide eyes. What are you singing?

Wei Zongcheng stood up and said loudly: "The great affairs of the government have been carried out according to the law since ancient times. If the people intervene, wouldn't it be a mess?"

Lin Feng smiled and asked softly: "Then please ask Lord Wei, what is the fundamental purpose of laws and regulations?"

"This is to regulate everything in the world and maintain social order." Wei Zongcheng hesitated for a moment and replied. In fact, in private, Wei Zongcheng certainly knew that the real purpose of the court's laws was to maintain centralization and stabilize feudal rule, but who dared to say that purpose publicly?

Lin Feng smiled even harder and asked: "If so, is it said that the purpose of the law is to ensure that each of us 'live upright, not harm others, and each has its own place'." This is the legislative principles and creeds marked by the ancient Romans in the "Twelve Bronze Measures" and was borrowed by Lin Feng.

"Yes... it should be like this." Wei Zongcheng replied even more hesitantly. Lin Feng's questioning was plausible, and he always felt that something was wrong.

"In this case, does the rules necessarily have a prerequisite, that is, everyone is born equal and enjoys some basic rights that no one cannot deprive them." Lin Feng continued to ask.

"This... is..." Wei Zongcheng felt even more inappropriate, but he had to nod and admit it.

"Then I'm going to ask Lord Wei, why can Liu Yanzhen forcefully divert canal water, seize people's land, and wantonly deprive the people of the Tang Dynasty of basic survival rights because of his personal interests? Is it just because he is the governor of Shouzhou and an official?" Lin Feng's words became quick and anxious, staring at Wei Zongcheng and shouting, just like a lawyer in later generations who lured the other party into a trap he had set and gave a sharp blow at the end.

"This..." Wei Zongcheng, who had never experienced this oppressive questioning, was speechless and unwilling to admit defeat. He then replied in a low voice, "That's because Liu Yanzhen's personal morality is ashamed of the trust of the priest, but the priest is very clear, and Liu Yanzhen will eventually be punished for evil and will be imprisoned."

"So, just because of Liu Yanzhen's personal morality, in the past few years, hundreds of people under Anfeng Tang deserve to lose their lives out of thin air, and they deserve to be starved to death and forced to death." Lin Feng's voice and expression were stern, staring at Wei Zongcheng, until Wei Zongcheng could not resist and lowered his head, then he calmed down and said in a deep voice.

"When Liu Yanzhen first started to divert water, maybe everyone could not see his true purpose, but why no one came forward to stop him when he robbed the civil land in the first year? There is no mechanism or force that can make him unable to do so. In the final analysis, if you want fairness, it is absolutely unreliable to place your hope on a person's quality. Only by relying on transparency, effective supervision and pressure mechanisms; only transparency can ensure that a good thing will not be recited into his own scripture by the crooked monk."

Speaking of this, Lin Feng walked to the governor's table and pulled the black cloth off.
