At the beginning of the establishment of the Tang Dynasty, the governance of some border areas was more difficult, such as Nanning, and the imperial court often sent officials to govern, but those officials often took bribes when they arrived there, and the law was not done well, and the local people often took it as a problem, and some even launched rebellions, causing turmoil in Nanning. Li Yuan knew wei Renshou's name, so he made him the governor of Nanning Prefecture, still obeying the government of Yuewei, and went to Nanning once a year to inspect nanning, so that he could govern Nanning in order to appease the hearts and minds of the people of all ethnic groups on the border.
Wei Renshou took over the task and took 500 men and horses to Nanning, all the way to the Daxier River (present-day Erhai, Yunnan), opening up thousands of miles of land, and undertaking the establishment of eight prefectures and seventeen counties, with the local chieftains of various ethnic groups as the county's Hezhou County. In addition, Wei Renshou also promulgated decrees in the local area that were upright and strict, stabilizing the people, changing the chaotic situation in the past in one fell swoop, making the people's livelihood stable, the local political power moving toward regularization, and the social order in Nanning and other border areas gradually stabilized. After the governance was done, when Wei Renshou left, the local officials and people sent him off, crying bitterly, hoping that he could continue to stay in management. But the emperor's order was difficult to violate, and Wei Renshou could only say goodbye!
Repentance said: A generation of famous ministers Wei Renshou, judging the case is like a god's sin and sincerely convinced. The chaos on the frontier is difficult to govern, and the famous ministers are twisted! (Text: Pan Xiexi)
