Vol 2 Chapter 966: trivia

Chapter 966 It's just a trivial matter

Wang Sheng said that Jia Pingan's throwing out the movable type at this moment was a long-planned move, and he wanted to throw it out to show his credit when the monarch and his ministers were at a loss, so that the credit would be magnified.

Guo Xin said sarcastically: "Mr. will definitely be rewarded as soon as the movable type is produced, so it is shameless for you to use this to attack him."

Wang Sheng just sneered.

This is a conspiracy theory.

Someone outside said: "An unscrupulous person will stare at other people's tricks all day long..."

This is what Jia Pingan said earlier, and it is just right to criticize Wang Sheng at this moment.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Guo Xin couldn't help laughing out loud.

Extremely insolent!

Li Jingdu turned around and shouted, "Who is talking?"

The voice outside came, "What's the matter? Can't even talk? It's a shame to wait!"

"come out!"

Li Jingdu shouted sharply, and at the same time took a few steps forward.

Everyone get out of the way...

A small official stood outside.

Li Jing has seen this person before, and he is a junior official of the Imperial College.

This person dared to offend the nobles, is he crazy?

Even Guo Xin praised: "Good man, I will arrange for you when you are expelled from the Imperial College."

The little official looked profusely sweating, and was still a little out of breath, "I just got a message outside... Your Majesty rewarded Duke Jia as a Duke for his great achievements with movable type..."

Sure enough!

Wang Sheng felt that there was no mistake in his plan.

But why did the little official dare to offend the old man?

This is what Wang Sheng doesn't understand.

But he only needs a wink to clean up the little shrimps.

The little official still looked at him impolitely, "Mr. Jia refused the reward, saying that he would be a knight for military service!"

Wang Sheng: "..."

Wang Kuan was dumbfounded.

"He...he refused?"

Someone turned around and ran out.

But before he ran out of the house, someone came outside.

"Jia Pingan refused to be knighted and was beaten by the queen."

The queen has all shot?

The news is confirmed.

It's a real hammer!

The little official said solemnly: "I also know that Guozijian and arithmetic, Confucianism and new learning are incompatible, but it is just a dispute between orthodoxy. Duke Jia invented movable type and used it to benefit culture and education without hesitation. To slander his intentions behind his back..."

The little official straightened his waist and said solemnly: "Although I am only a small official, I know that I should be grateful for favors, not slander and criticism. If there is injustice, I will cry out, even if I lose my job in the Imperial College for this!"

Jia Ping'an held his dead body at home.

"Aye, are you in pain?"

The little cotton-padded jacket ran in and out, asking him for a while, and saying that he was going to ask for medicine.

"It doesn't hurt."

Master Jia was beaten, but the two wives thought it was a good beating.

"Did my husband be confused at the time?"

Su He complained: "If you become the Duke of the state, the children in the family will not only be able to inherit the title, but the second and third children will be able to shade the officials. How wonderful? You refused to give birth to a husband."

Jia Ping'an was lying on the bed, surrounded by a woman complaining, her eyelids constantly fighting.

"Aye."

"What are you doing?"

Jia Ping'an was at a loss.

DouDou asked, "Does it still hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt anymore."

"oh!"

The little padded jacket is really considerate.

Jia Ping'an thought the beating was worth it.

Doudou stretched out his hand hard, and patted Jia Ping'an's back vigorously.

This shot happened to capture the scar.

"ah!"

"Why Paida?"

Suho was furious.

Doudou wanted to cry, "Aye said it doesn't hurt anymore, so I just want to try, Aye is lying."

Are you still reasonable?

Jia Ping'an felt that daughters were all here to collect debts.

"Mr. Xu, Mr. Xu is here to visit."

What is Lao Xu doing here?

Jia Pingan got up and went to the front yard.

"Can it be serious?"

Xu Jingzong was relieved when he saw that Jia Pingan could move around.

"It's not that the old man said you. If you don't want to be a good Duke, what kind of military merits do you want? Do you really think that military merits are so easy to get? To tell you the truth, Tang Dynasty will not fight Tubo within two years, so you are looking for trouble."

Xu Jingzong complained, then looked around.

Nothing happened.

Then rub the stomach.

Du He, who was waiting on the side, finally realized his spirit, and said, "Mr., the weather is hot, and the kitchen has brought some iced food."

Xu Jingzong felt comfortable after eating a meal of ice cream.

"Bring some sausages and bacon for Mr. Xu."

Xu Jingzong looked serious, "No more, no more, I'm leaving now."

Jia Ping'an said: "In this weather, cook the bacon sausage, then steam and slice it, it will be delicious with dinner and wine!"

Xu Jingzong's throat twitched, Du He understood and said: "The bacon sausage at home is too much, if you don't eat it quickly, I'm afraid it will go bad."

"Xiao Jia is not the old man talking about you, you have to watch the food when you eat, your eyes are big and your belly is small!"

Xu Jingzong left with a pile of sausages and bacon.

"The Duke of England is here."

A certain person Jia complained of being sick at home, which attracted many people to visit him.

Li Jingye only came after he went down to the Yamen.

"Ah Weng said it's not serious, maybe drinking alcohol?"

"I can."

My sister said it was a beating, but it was more like a warm-up.

So Jia Pingan is going to take a bath tomorrow.

"Bring good wine."

Li Jingye snarled as if he was at home, "Brother, you don't know, I don't know who I have learned how to keep in good health recently, and I stopped drinking. I said you don't drink, I drink bars, but A Weng said that keeping in good health is important." Starting from the child... I said, Ah Weng, you are in the same situation, you dare not drink alcohol, and I will suffer along with you."

It is really lucky that this unlucky child was not killed.

Li Jingye ate dinner at Jia's house, and they were very close together.

"Brother, please!"

What Li Jingye wanted was a big cup, and he took a cup with his head up. Then he took two slices of sausage and chewed, and then had a mouthful of rice, which was so refreshing.

"Brother, please!"

Drank it down again, and then boldly picked up five slices of bacon with the chopsticks. Jia Pingan asked curiously, "You...can't you even eat meat?"

Li Jingye held up the bacon, looked at the transparent piece of meat, and said sadly: "Aunt said that he should be a vegetarian recently, and I said you should eat it, but Aunt said that he would eat it with me, so that he can be pious."

Su Ho was stunned, and Wei Wushuang couldn't bear it.

It is so cruel for such a burly man not to eat meat!

Doudou sighed: "Uncle Li is a little stupid! You are not allowed to eat in the kitchen at night?"

Jia Pingan glanced at Su Ho, who immediately lowered his head 'coyly'.

Oops, the fact that DouDou went to the kitchen to get food was exposed.

Li Jingye put down his chopsticks and said sadly: "There is no meat in the kitchen."

Old Li, what is he doing?

Jia Ping'an felt wrong.

"This is not health preservation, who said something to the British Duke, but a foreigner?"

Li Jingye said angrily: "What kind of cultivation is it?"

Jia Ping'an was speechless.

After binge eating and drinking, Li Jingye was ready to go back.

"Ah Weng still doesn't allow me to go to the brothel, hey!"

The feeling that something is wrong is getting stronger and stronger.

Li Jingye went home all the way, and first practiced in the front yard to force out the alcohol. Then take a bath and change clothes.

"Li Yao!"

Li Yao was called.

"Is there any powder?"

Li Yao subconsciously said: "No."

Li Jingye said with a cold face, "Go and get some."

There are many maids in the family, and there is no shortage of fans.

Li Yao came back later, with a scratch on his face.

Li Jingye picked up the powder and threw it on his body, making himself delicious in a short while.

Li Jingye is quite proud.

Li Yao rolled his eyes, "Why does Mr. Xiaolang do this...just take dried wormwood and smoke it, and the smell will disappear."

The smell of wormwood is strong, which is more powerful than any powder to cover up.

"Don't tell me sooner."

Li Jingye pointed at his face, "Are you going to moles the maid by the way?"

Li Yao wanted to die, "I was misunderstood."

Li Jingye couldn't help laughing.

Then went to the backyard.

"Where's Ah Weng?"

The maid said: "In the study."

Li Jingye cautiously went outside the study, it was already dark now.

He stood outside the door and looked inside.

There are several cases in the study room, and Li Ji sits on one side, usually a man with short beard.

The short-bearded man's face was round and shiny, reminding Li Jingye of the bacon he ate at Jia's house.

The man raised his eyes with gentle eyes, "The British Duke has worked hard for many years and killed countless people. The former Sui Dynasty should be destroyed, so raising troops is the way of heaven, and the way of heaven rewards but not punishes. This way, the king of the country will honor the children and grandchildren. But the subsequent fights were too much. Already...

The killing caused the wrath of the heavens. Once the backlash comes, this person will become weak and weak. The British Duke's symptoms are exactly like this. He is a genius doctor but he can't cure it. It's just a punishment from God... It can be resolved, but it can't be cured. "

Li Ji sighed: "The old man feels short of breath recently, and his spirit is not good. He wants to take a nap all day long, and he always has nightmares at night. He dreams about those brothers back then, and dreams about those fights... When he wakes up, he can't fall asleep anymore..."

"That's why."

The man's name is Nitta, but his surname is unknown.

He smiled slightly, "I have practiced in Zhongnan Mountain for many years, and I wanted to go to the Western Regions to preach, but I didn't expect to meet the British Duke by chance, so it is fate."

Li Ji nodded, "Please take a look for me."

Nitta squinted at him, and said for a long time: "There is so much evil spirit, it is shocking. Does the British public know about the so-called death and life?"

"compensate?"

"Exactly." Xintian said with a smile: "If you kill someone, then you should live another person. Only in this way can the crime be solved."

Li Ji smiled wryly and said: "During the Sui Dynasty, hunger was everywhere, and countless people could be saved by just giving out porridge. Now the Tang Dynasty is happy to live everywhere, but it is difficult for the old man to live."

In Chang'an City, even beggars are hard to find these days, so where to give alms?

Xintian smiled slightly, "I'm going to visit the Western Regions. Apart from preaching, I can also help the local people. This is also a merit. Merits are illusory, but the more you do, the more you will feel at ease."

Li Ji's heart moved slightly, "So, if the old man here gives alms to the Western Regions, it may be resolved..."

"Ah Ong!"

Li Jingye couldn't take it anymore, rushed in and pointed at Xintian and cursed: "Where is the monster, how dare you seduce Ah Weng."

Xintian glanced at him, got up and said, "If that's the case, I'll take my leave first."

Li Ji nodded with a smile, "Send off Li Yao, the old man will be at home tomorrow..."

Nitta nodded.

Immediately Li Yao came in, and the two went out together.

Li Jingye was about to explode.

"Ah Weng, what is your body weak and mentally weak? It's because you're bored. You spend your whole day thinking about this and that. How can you get sick if you learn from me? Xintian must be a liar. I will definitely do it next time. kill him!"

Li Ji's face turned cold, "Come here."

A servant came in outside the door.

"Here comes the stick."

When Li Yao came back, Li Jingye was being beaten severely.

"Alang."

Li Yao can be said to have watched Li Jingye grow up, and he couldn't bear to persuade him: "Xiao Langjun is also a caring heart."

Li Ji was drenched in sweat, panting and threw away the stick, "Get lost!"

Li Jingye patted his **** nonchalantly, "Ah, you..."

Li Ji leaned over to pick up the stick, and Li Jingye ran away.

Li Yao helped him in, and then he had people change the half-thawed ice, and the room gradually became cooler.

"A Lang." After all, Li Yao is an old man of the Li family, and he can say a lot, "Why don't you find a medical officer to have a look."

Li Ji was still panting while sitting there, with drooping eyebrows, and said for a long time, "This old man is a famous doctor."

Li Yao smiled wryly, "Mr. Xiao Lang is in a mess when he cares, but in fact he has been wandering outside the study these days."

"The old man knows."

If someone touched him outside the study room and was unconscious, Li Ji would have been killed a long time ago.

His eyes became softer, "This old man has experienced troubled times in his life, and killed countless people in troubled times, so he can be regarded as a hero. Later, he defected to Datang, and even led the army to fight against the stable side. It is always right to say that he has lived a long life..."

Li Ji took a sip of tea and gasped for a few more breaths, "This old man is not afraid of death, but Jingyang's qualifications are mediocre. If this old man goes now, he will not be able to control his professionalism..."

Jingyang is the name of Li Jingye’s father, Li Zhen.

Li Yao wondered, "Ah Lang, isn't there Duke Jia over there? He can suppress the little man."

Li Ji shook his head, "If it was successful in the past, you wouldn't know it until you wait... Xiao Jia took a different path. From the beginning, he walked into the court little by little, very cautious. But no matter how cautious he is, it will be enough for him after all these years." It has affected the government. So now he has more and more affairs... If you hand over the dedication to him again, the old man can't bear it."

Li Yao thought for a while, and found that this is really the case.

"The old man just wants to live another five years." Li Ji coughed dryly, drank a sip of tea to moisten his throat, "Jingyang came back from Zhaozhou this year, and the old man couldn't keep him in Chang'an, so I declined. Then let him go to Zizhou The land of Shu is rich, let Da Lang live happily there for a few years, and come back after the old man has gone, so that the enemies in the court will be less hostile to him..."

Such arrangements can be said to be thoughtful and sophisticated.

"Live a few more years, when Dalang returns from Zizhou, he will be more mature in his dedication, so the old man can feel at ease."

Li Ji smiled, "In the past, this old man didn't really believe in these things, but recently his body is weak and his spirit is weak, and he often dreams about his brothers from back then, so he knows it's time. Xintian is considered pious, so it can be pinned on. It is good, but it is not good. Also feel at ease."

Li Yao resigned, walked outside the door and turned around.

Under the candlelight, Li Ji stared blankly at a wooden knife on the wall.

That was the toy he peeled for Li Jingye with his own hands back then. When Li Jingye was young, he taught him how to use swordsmanship and horse lance. As time goes by, the wooden knife looks mottled.

Li Ji sighed quietly.

The candlelight flickered, and the white hair moved slightly.

"Auntie."

Going around early in the morning, I found my old lady, and said righteously: "Aye said, I will not be allowed to go to the kitchen to find food for you in the future."

Suho, who just woke up, was furious, "Who do you listen to?"

yes!

Who do I listen to?

It seems that I listen to A Niang more.

"I listen to my mother..."

Su Ho turned his anger into joy.

"But..." Doudou hesitated, "But Aye is the one who takes me out to play, Aye is the one who brings me gifts, and Aye is the one who doesn't do anything when I get angry... Auntie, I still listen to Aye Yes."

Early in the morning, the mother and daughter vowed to break with each other completely.

When Suho had breakfast, he ate alone, and so did DouDou.

The mother and daughter ignored each other.

Jia Pingan didn't care about it.

After breakfast, Jia Ping'an was ready to go out.

"Well... I asked Cao Er to make eight-treasure rice. Doudou likes it the most. I just have a small bowl for lunch."

Doudou rejoiced, "Aye is so kind."

As soon as Jia Ping'an walked away, someone grabbed him by the back collar. She spun around and shouted, "Who is so so?"

"Go around!"

DouDou finally saw the person behind him, "Aniang."

Su Ho squeezed out a smiling face, "Let's discuss it..."

"What are you discussing?" DouDou stared wide-eyed, always feeling that something was wrong.

"That eight-treasure rice, how about you and A Niang being half of each other?"

DouDou shook his head, "Not good."

"Jia Doudou!"

Soho went into a rage with his arms akimbo.

Doudou put his head on his hips and let out a cold snort, as if he would rather die than surrender.

Wei Wushuang passed by and saw this scene speechless.

Running away joyfully later, Su Ho looked resentful.

Wei Wushuang shook his head, "It's probably the unequal treaty my husband said."

"Those people say that it is useless to have textbooks without a teacher."

Ren Yaxiang's morning tea party is still the same.

Wu Kui glanced at Jia Pingan and found that he was not in a hurry at all.

"What does Xiao Jia think?"

Ren Yaxiang took a sip of tea and asked comfortably.

"Leave it alone."

Jia Ping'an was very calm.

Wu Kui couldn't help but said: "Someone outside said that they would rather rest at home than teach."

Ren Yaxiang said indifferently: "If they go to the Imperial College to teach, they will flock to it, but going to the school is not as good as the county school, how can those people be willing."

Old Ren really has sharp eyesight.

Jia Pingan said: "Those people want to fight against His Majesty."

Xiao Jia still has a lot of them.

Ren Yaxiang certainly knew this factor, "Chang'an needs more than a hundred masters, let alone the entire Tang Dynasty."

Wu Kui wondered: "Didn't you think about it at the beginning?"

"Of course I have thought about it." Ren Yaxiang took a sip of tea and said slowly: "There are many down-and-out literati in the world. At the beginning, I thought that at least this is also a job, and the monthly money and food are enough to support the family. If it is done well, it can't be said. You can also enter the county school, the state school, and even the Imperial College. I didn't expect..."

His eyes flashed sternly, "Someone is talking outside, bewitching those down-and-out literati not to sign up."

So the struggle is never a dinner party.

Wu Kui was surprised, "It's too ruthless, but those people feel that their interests have been damaged...it's normal."

Whoever takes my interests, even if it is the emperor, Yeye has to fight against him.

This matter is not a patent of the Ming Dynasty, it started from the former Han... When the family was huge and powerful, once they got together, the emperor had no choice but to do anything.

During the Ming Dynasty, a freak called "scholar" appeared. These scholars grouped together through interests, from tax exemptions to distribution of local benefits, they were everywhere...for example, land mergers. In the end, all the benefits of the world were shared by them, and Daming was also finished.

Jia Pingan put down his teacup, "It's just a trivial matter."
