Chapter 1159 Running Dog Cooking
"The old man has served His Majesty for many years, and he is notorious for this. It's not that the old man refuses to turn back, but many things make the old man unable to turn back."
In the same night, Li Yifu drank at home.
Several sons are there, as is son-in-law Liu Yuanzhen.
"My father-in-law, Your Majesty still relies on you."
Liu Yuanzhen smiled.
Li Yifu glanced at him, "Your Majesty mentioned you last time."
Liu Yuanzhen was flattered, "It must be the support of my father-in-law."
Li Yifu said indifferently: "Your Majesty said that you sell your official position very well."
Liu Yuanzhen: "..."
Li Lu said with a smile: "Aye, why do you need to say these things? Later, Aye will just knock down a few people for His Majesty, for example, people from the gentry."
Liu Yuanzhen quickly echoed a few words.
Li Yifu scratched his gray hair, "I offended the people of the world because of His Majesty. If I were to break away from His Majesty's protection, I would have something I couldn't bear to say in an instant. So I can't turn back, and neither can you."
He restrained himself without saying anything.
"Twenty million yuan is still a lot short, hurry up."
After the meal, Li Yifu came to the study.
"Master."
Du Yuanji was waiting, saluting with a smile.
"Twenty million yuan is still a little short, is there a big problem?"
Li Yifu was a little nervous.
Du Yuanji said with a smile: "I saw the anger in the mansion today, and the resentment actually subsided a bit. It can be seen that those resentful ghosts have gained the benefits of money. However, there are still ghosts who are greedy. Looking at the arrogance, this is the meaning of asking for money. .”
"The old man knows."
Li Yifu sighed.
"That's right." Du Yuanji said, "It's best to go and see the tomb..."
Li Yifu wondered, "Why?"
Du Yuanji walked forward, and said softly: "How the ancestors are buried can affect the fortune of the family. I am good at watching Qi, so it can be seen."
"Then... that is the grave of the parents?"
"right!"
Smiles appeared on both faces, one cozy and the other mysterious.
Snapped!
The candle exploded suddenly, Li Yifu was taken aback, Du Yuanji smiled and said: "This is a good omen."
…
The weather was getting hotter and hotter, so Su Ho wanted to stay at home and not go out. Wei Wushuang forced her to inspect the property together.
Jia Pingan doesn't care about these disputes, and is teaching a new lesson.
"Sound is produced by the vibration of objects."
"Aye, isn't the voice spoken?"
DuDou rested his chin on his hands and looked at his father, puzzled.
Jia Ping'an said: "That's because it went through the shock...gas shock..."
Doudou said: "Why does the vibration make a sound?"
Jia Pingan: "..."
"Why does everyone have a different voice?"
"Why is Ah Fu's voice different from mine?"
"get out of class ends first!"
Jia Pingan escaped before his mentality exploded.
Doudu cheered behind him, "Ah Fu, let's go!"
Jia Ping'an was waiting for bad news from Li Yifu.
"Since three years ago, Li Yi's mansion has been crazy. There is rain in the sky, and there is trouble with maniac. Because of the containment of all parties, His Majesty tolerated him and even warned him personally, but Li Yi's mansion turned a deaf ear. He thought he was Being able to bargain with His Majesty, this is the beginning of disaster..."
Wang Bo said: "If it were me, it would definitely not be like this."
Jia Pingan glanced at him, "If you... would die even worse."
…
Li Yifu is on leave.
Jia Pingan got the news from the Ministry of War and asked.
"They said they were going outside the city to pay homage to their deceased mother."
Chen Jinfa said.
"Pay homage to my dead mother!" Jia Ping'an asked, "Have there been rumors about him recently?"
"Yes, quite a few." Chen Jinfa laughed and said, "It is said that Li Yifu is greedy and amassed money crazily. I am afraid that he has different intentions."
Jia Pingan looked at the void, and said for a long time: "The opportunity is given to you. If you don't seize it, you will throw it away like a shoe. Now the opportunity has become a crisis, so let's go."
…
The city where Li Yifu and Du Yuanji left together.
The two rode on horses and talked all the way.
Someone murmured at the city gate, "This man is a warlock, why is Li Xiang so close to him?"
The word warlock is naturally mysterious and weird. Whenever a warlock appears next to the boss, everyone's first thought is... What is the boss trying to do?
"I'm afraid I'm spying on disasters."
"More than that?"
It was only half a day, and many people knew about one thing...
"Your Majesty, Li Yifu brought the warlock out of the city, saying that he was paying homage to his deceased mother, but many people said that he was spying on disasters and intending to plot evil."
It is not a big deal for future generations to ask your husband to visit the ancestral grave, but it is different at this moment, and his identity is also different.
The prime minister invited the warlock to visit the ancestral grave, and the only thing that comes to mind is...
"He is not satisfied with the position of prime minister?"
Shen Qiu: "..."
What else can we say? Can't say anything.
Above the prime minister is the emperor, and Li Yifu is not satisfied, so he has no choice but to usurp the throne and become the emperor.
Empress Wu said indifferently: "Your Majesty, it's time to prepare the stick."
"That's it."
The emperor waved his hand, as if driving away a fly.
…
After Li Yifu returned to the city, it was called a red face!
"Today's harvest is not small."
When he got home, he dropped this sentence, and then everyone prepared wine to celebrate.
The whole family rejoiced.
Drinking halfway through, Li Yifu said earnestly: "Money is the foundation, we must speed up making money..."
"Don't worry, Aye, tomorrow I will squat in the Ministry of Officials and watch those elected officials give bad reviews if they don't pay."
"The son-in-law remembered that several officials wanted to be promoted, so he turned around and asked what price they could offer."
Li Yifu stroked his beard and smiled, extremely proud.
The next day he went to the Ministry of Officials.
"The selection of officials is the most important thing in the affairs of the Ministry of officials, and it should not be ignored!"
Li Yifu lectured the officials with a straight face.
"Those who are competent are rated as mediocre, those who are incompetent are rated as high, those who are capable are down, and those who are mediocre are high. How to maintain the prosperity of the Tang Dynasty? As officials of the Ministry of Officials, you must keep these in mind."
Everyone quickly responded.
Zuo Shilang smiled and said: "The minister has high morals and high prestige, and his eyes are like lightning. From now on, it is better to ask the minister to judge important officials."
Li Yifu had a cold face, "I still have to go to court, how can I be free?"
The waiter on the right laughed, "Those who can do more work!"
"Yeah yeah!"
Rainbow farts kept coming, Li Yifu pointed at them for a long time, and sighed: "You guys! Hey!"
Everyone got up and left.
Not long after, an official came in.
"Master, the eldest grandson Yanjin has entered the Quanxuan..."
Changsun Yan is the son of Changsun Chong and Princess Changle. He was originally a yamen like the stars holding the moon.
He is now a idler in the court, and now that he has entered the list of general elections, it is almost a matter of deciding where to go to Li Yi's mansion next.
"He was found."
Li Yifu's eyes shone with pride.
"The old dog Changsun Wuji, I saw that the old man's eyes grew on his forehead, but now his grandson has fallen into the old man's hands. Old dog, please pray."
Chang Sun Yan is here.
"Meet Li Xiang."
He is a little transparent now, anyone can secretly suppress it... But obviously not, because the emperor is watching in the Daming Palace, the two are relatives, God knows if the emperor will suddenly change his mind.
Li Yifu looked at him, and said playfully: "I heard that you have been slack in your work these few years?"
Elder Sun Yan's complexion changed drastically, and he cupped his hands and said, "Don't dare to do that, Prime Minister Li's words... Forget it, I just want to be safe, and I will give you a small gift later, I just want... the post of Water Superintendent."
The Metropolitan Water Supervision Department is a water conservancy department, which can be called marginalized.
"The grandson of Duke Zhao, is that so? Hahahaha!"
Li Yifu laughed wildly.
Chang Sun Yan lowered his head, his eyes were calm, his lips moved slightly... old dog!
"Forget it, half a million dollars."
Li Yifu stared at Changsun Yan, "Your Majesty was merciful back then. I know that your family has a lot of money, five hundred thousand yuan, and the position of Dushui envoy is yours. It is the fifth grade!"
Elder Sun Yan sighed, "Ms. Li made me ashamed. I also want to make friends with Mr. Li, so... 700,000 yuan."
Li Yifu leaned back slightly, squinted his eyes and said: "In the future, if you have something to do, you can come to find me, no one can deceive you."
Elder Sun Yan got up and saluted, "Thank you."
Out of the Ministry of Officials, Changsun Yan looked up at the blue sky, and said flatly: "Damn it!"
Seven hundred thousand yuan is a huge amount, and all of it went to the Li family.
"Not so good!"
Li Yifu looked at the money in the storeroom with his hands behind his back, and said complacently, "Twenty million yuan! Who in Chang'an can have it?"
Li Lu smiled and said: "My family is powerful and rich, and it is the number one noble in ancient and modern times."
Li Yifu couldn't help raising his head and laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
His son and son-in-law laughed together.
Laughing is so carefree and proud.
…
On the second day, Li Yifu went to court as usual.
The monarch and his ministers remain the same.
Old Dou was so excited that his words didn't convey his meaning.
"But the bigger the copper mine, the more manpower it needs..."
Dou Dexuan glanced at the queen.
This is a problem.
"What do you think?"
Empress Wu has long been accustomed to throwing problems to the prime ministers, sitting on the clouds and watching with cold eyes, and finally made a summary of the choice.
This is the privilege of the superior.
Xu Jingzong frowned and said: "There are some immigrants over there, all of whom are farming. If they go to mine... Is it possible to send food to them from Chang'an? The cost is too high."
"Yes! It's too far away." Shangguanyi also felt that this idea was unreliable.
Dou Dexuan coughed dryly, "Queen, Liaodong came to report, and there are many tribes around. Those tribes are poor and poor. If they can be hired, it would be great."
Huh!
This idea is so familiar!
Empress Wu said: "Those tribes must not be abused, otherwise Datang's reputation will be in danger."
"Yes! The money and food that should be given will definitely be given, but there is good news from Penglai, saying that more than a hundred thousand young people are eager to come to Datang to find a way to survive...Isn't this ready-made? Let them come to dig mines, every day Just enough to eat every day.”
Penglai is the current name of the country of Wa.
More than 100,000 young and strong...
Who searched for this?
Empress Wu's eyelids twitched wildly.
Xu Jingzong snorted, "Why does it look like Xiao Jia's method?"
is his means!
Empress Wu sneered.
Don't say it in front of you, but let Dou Dexuan say, what is this doing?
Avoid suspicion?
People with big farts, say what to avoid suspicion!
Everyone praised the idea.
Li Ji still dozed off.
A servant came in, "Queen, Cao Canjun, Yang Xingying, Youjin Wucang, has something urgent to report, here is the document."
Shao Peng went over to pick it up, checked it, and then handed it over.
It is against the rules to enter the palace without going through the middle school, but Wu has no expression on his face, and the two officials can only pretend not to see it.
Just glanced at it, Empress Wu raised her eyes and said, "This matter is important, please come down."
Everyone was shocked.
Even Li Yifu, who was immersed in the fun of spending money to eliminate disasters, couldn't help asking: "It's such a big deal? Please tell the queen."
Empress Wu glanced at him, and said indifferently: "Let's wait until His Majesty comes down."
Li Yifu thought what a big deal it would be?
By the way, Jia Ping'an was supposed to go to court today, why didn't he come?
Could it be...
Li Yifu thought of the recent undercurrent in the palace. The emperor was sick and unable to look at the court. The prince is growing up gradually, who will supervise the country?
Conflicts will break out between the queen and the prince sooner or later, this is Li Yifu's judgment.
Which side does Jia Ping'an stand on?
He is the prince's husband, and he has devoted countless efforts to the prince. How can he sit back and watch the prince be marginalized?
But the queen is his elder sister. The siblings have supported each other for many years, and they have a deep friendship. He couldn't bear Jia Ping'an's opposition to the queen's supervision of the country.
Could it be that he made a choice?
But it won’t alarm the emperor, right?
Li Yifu tentatively said: "Queen, Mr. Zhao Guogong was learning some maths a while ago, and he was very domineering. It doesn't matter if you are domineering, you young man! But in his words, he compared the new learning to his own private property. I feel... I'm afraid it's Not quite right."
If the queen despises Jia Ping'an, these words will be an assist.
Xu Jingzong was furious, "Xiao Jia is clearly disregarding the relationship between himself and Xinxue, but in your mouth, it has become unpredictable and mischievous... old dog!"
He rolled up his sleeves and strode forward, the wat board in his hand looked quite threatening.
"Bitch!"
Li Yifu and him are deadly enemies, and sneered: "Jia Ping'an kept belittling Confucianism into the mud. Isn't this out of ulterior motives?"
After Jia Ping'an's words came out, countless people in Chang'an City were furious.
As long as there are some promising officials or dignitaries, most of them study Confucianism. There have been countless students in the Imperial College over the years, and they still study Confucianism.
But that day, Jia Ping’an described Confucianism as an auxiliary course in his speech on mathematics, while Xinxue became the main subject...
That is to say, anyone with a Confucian background has become an auxiliary talent.
How many people are roaring to be at odds with Jia Ping'an.
How many people were drunk and swore to kill Jia Pingan.
However, some people stood up to support Jia Ping'an, and among them was Guozijian Jijiu Wangkuan.
According to Wang Kuan, Confucianism was naturally the only choice before the emergence of new learning. But after the emergence of new learning, the shortcomings of Confucianism were undoubtedly revealed.
Xu Jingzong scolded: "Confucianism may teach you how to do things?"
Li Yifu made his fortune by relying on articles, so he said very firmly: "Of course."
"You seem to rely on articles to make a fortune, but in the final analysis, you rely on entrapment." Xu Jingzong hilariously wanted to laugh, "As for articles... what is the use of articles? Xiao Jia said well, what's the benefit of doing more articles? Maybe A powerful Tang Dynasty? Hahahaha!"
This is a complete denial of Li Yifu's past.
Old dog!
Just as Li Yifu was about to spray, the emperor came.
Li Zhi was helped in, frowning slightly, it seemed that his headache was still not relieved.
The queen got up, and when he came over, she helped him and let him sit down.
"What is it?"
Li Zhi was a little impatient.
Wu Mei handed over the paperwork.
Li Zhi lowered his head, then raised his eyes to look at Li Yifu, and there was something wrong with his eyes.
Li Yifu's heart skipped a beat.
Could it be some lowly dog slave who spoke ill of the old man in private?
But he didn't care at all.
There have been countless people impeaching him over the years, but the emperor ignored them all.
But the queen invited the emperor today, is this to kill the old man?
Li Yifu sneered in his heart.
The emperor needs an old man, no matter how hard the empress is, it is useless.
Li Zhi raised his head slowly, "Li Qing."
Li Qing... This appellation means that the old man has passed a test again.
Li Yifu stood up.
Li Zhi looked at him, his eyes darkened, "You hired a magician to plan at home and earn money desperately, I can let you go..."
The emperor was benevolent and righteous.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was surprised.
Li Yifu hissed: "Your Majesty, I have risked my life for Your Majesty, I..."
Li Zhi said coldly: "But you actually blackmailed Changsun Yan for 700,000 yuan, 700,000 yuan... and got an envoy from the Dushui Supervisor. My official position and Datang's official position are regarded by your family as a way to make money. I can bear it... it's because of your credit."
Li Yifu felt bad, "Your Majesty..."
Li Zhi said: "Changsun Yan is Changle's child, and Changle is my elder sister! Before my elder sister, what are you?"
Boom!
The emperor smashed out the things in his hands.
Li Yifu hurried out, thinking that the emperor was angry because of Changsun Yan?
But when he dealt with Changsun Wuji's family at the beginning, he was very decisive. Changsun Wuji committed suicide, and Changsun Chong disappeared...
It can always be seen from all the places that the emperor hated the eldest grandson's family deeply.
But why is he angry today because of Changsun Yan?
A bad thought swirled in Li Yifu's mind.
"A Dushui envoy is 700,000 yuan. I am short of your salary? Or is it that your family's expenses are so high that they are bigger than those in the palace?"
Li Zhi sneered: "Today you dare to blackmail grandson Yan, tomorrow will you dare to blackmail the prince? Dare to blackmail the princess? In the future you will dare to blackmail me!"
The emperor's face was livid.
Li Yifu knelt down without a crown.
This is the procedure, if he doesn't follow it at the moment, no one will beep if the emperor kills him.
"What courage!"
Empress Wu said coldly: "Your Majesty, don't be soft-hearted... Come!"
"Your Majesty!"
Li Yifu raised his head, and said in disbelief: "I am wronged."
Empress Wu sneered, "Take down Li Yifu!"
Li Yifu just wanted to get up when he was held down, and immediately a ball of cloth blocked his mouth.
"Woooooooooooo!"
Looking at the emperor, Li Yifu was sobbing, his eyes were about to burst into flames...
He completely figured it out.
Chang Sun Yan did it on purpose!
No wonder he asked for 500,000 yuan, but Changsun Yan offered 700,000 yuan. It's ridiculous that he still felt that he had unlimited authority at the time, and only now did he realize that this was a trap.
The pit dug by the emperor and empress together!
Li Zhi stood up, "Exile to Zhuangzhou!"
Lanzhou is in Shu, and it is impossible to come back after this trip.
"Woooooooooooo!"
The emperor finally told him what to do with him.
This is a gesture of categorization.
This dog... I don't want it anymore!
Li Yifu was dragged out, and the palace people all the way avoided, shocked.
Arrived outside the palace, those officials were dumbfounded when they saw him.
Until one person scolded: "Old dog, you still have today!"
"Old dog!"
Li Yifu lowered his head.
—Flying birds are gone, good bows are hidden. The cunning rabbit dies, the running dog cooks.
He raised his eyes, tears flickering in his eyes.
Qin Sha...
…
—The mother, wife, and sons of Yifu sell officials and go to prison, and the door is like boiling soup. Yang Xingying, Cao Shenjun of the right Jinwucang, whitened his stolen goods. There was a certificate, and his name was removed by decree. The third son and son-in-law are especially vicious, and after being defeated, people think that the "four vicious men" will be punished.
…
Ask for a monthly pass!
