Chapter 298 Weird Undercurrent
The answer to the place where there is no silver here is so melodious that Li Su doesn't know how to save face for her.
After Xu Mingzhu blurted out, she also found that she had lost her words, her face turned even more violently, and she twisted the corner of her clothes and was at a loss.
Li Su finally made things happen for her, went to the table and sat down, and smiled and said, "I've been tired for a day, but I haven't eaten yet."
Xu Mingzhu came to her senses and hurriedly stepped forward to take out the warm wine, filled it with Li Su, and said softly: "Honey, eat it..."
Li Su smiled and looked at her, lowered her head and looked at the little bit of food on the table that was not enough to squeeze the teeth. Her cheeks couldn't help but twitched a few times. Xu Mingzhu's hand holding the wine pot trembled slightly, and her face was red and her head was drooping, as if... looking for a hole in the ground?
"Today's food is so exquisite..." Li Su was so embarrassed that she was so angry that she hit her head to death, so she had to rescue her again.
Xu Mingzhu blushed and whispered: "It's my fault. I... I will go and instruct the chef to ask him to add two more dishes."
"No need, it's getting late, so it's not suitable to eat too much." Li Su stopped her with a smile, and raised her chopsticks to hold the dishes. Then she thought, these dishes were all fiddled with by Xu Mingzhu's fingers. Although the beautiful woman's fingers were not dirty, Li Su's strange problem of cleanliness is really...
Don't eat it, no matter how clean your fingers are, there are bacteria...
Li Su had no choice but to put down the bamboo chopsticks and drank a sip of wine. She couldn't help but feel glad. Fortunately, Xu Mingzhu was still kind and didn't put her finger into the wine pot to wash it, otherwise she would really not know what to eat tonight.
The atmosphere was very strange, and the room was silent. The two of them, who had the status of husband and wife but had no real husband and wife, were drinking and the other knelt down and bowed their heads with guilt.
The wine is good. Although Li Su invented the strong wine, Li Su never refused to drink it at home. He drank very ordinary rice wine with a little smell. After warming, the fragrance was refreshing. He would not get drunk even if he drank a pot. He felt a little drunk after drinking. He felt very comfortable. As for the five steps, Li Daozheng liked it tightly, but Li Su rarely drank it, and he didn't even get a drop after getting married.
There is no way, there is a beautiful wife at home. He is afraid that he will lose his mind after getting drunk, so he will make some bloody scenes that will make the three of them confused. Men have to face many temptations in their entire lives, so they still have to restrain themselves when they should be restrained.
"Husband... are you tired of working for the country every day?" Xu Mingzhu asked softly.
Li Su was stunned for a moment.
This question is very profound. Are you tired? Every day, I should take a walk around the workshop with my hands in my hands, so that everyone knows that Master Jianzheng checks in and goes to work today, and the next time is free time. At this time, Xu Jingzong will come up with great eyes. If the weather is sunny, he will bring a bamboo chair for Master Jianzheng and let him lie under the shade of the tree in the backyard to rest as he wants. If the weather is wet and cold, he will add a charcoal furnace in the wing room. If the master Jianzheng is in a good mood, Xu Jingzong will help him carry the fishing rod and fish in the pond outside the firearm...
In short, if you don’t have the energy to do revolutionary work without having a good entertainment?
"It's quite tiring..." Li Su sighed, tiring to play.
After saying that, Li Su also pretended to move her shoulder bones that seemed to be sore. The image of a model-working county who was young and suffering from periarthritis of the shoulder suddenly appeared.
His acting skills are so impressive that he deeply fascinated the brain-dead audience.
Xu Mingzhu hurried forward, pressed Li Su's shoulder with slender fingers, and rubbed his shoulders and pinched his back.
Li Su was uncomfortable and hurriedly turned around and refused: "Stop and call the maid in the mansion to massage it. There is no need to bother the wife."
Seeing that his husband refused, Xu Mingzhu couldn't help but look disappointed and silently took a few steps back.
"Husband... Actually, there is no need to be so polite to me." Xu Mingzhu lowered her head and said softly, looking a little aggrieved.
Li Su sighed, "You're welcome. Really, I used to live alone, and I've been living together rashly. I'm always a little uncomfortable. Thank you, Madam, you and I will adapt to each other for a few days, okay?"
Xu Mingzhu finally became a little happier and nodded with a smile.
"Husband, I looked through the account books at home this morning and found that it was very profitable. The money and silver cakes in the warehouse combined were more than 10,000 yuan. Husband, I think... the money cannot be just put in the warehouse and used them to make them make more money for our family. What do you think?"
"Oh, okay, you're going to make the decision."
Xu Mingzhu talked happily: "I later discussed with my father-in-law. My father-in-law's meaning is the same as my mother. Money is an outside thing after all, but the land can benefit the descendants. My mother-in-law means... I want to buy more land in Taiping Village. There is a piece of land in the east of the village. It has been deserted for a long time. I heard that it was the medium-sized land left in the former Sui Dynasty. The landlord escaped from the war and ran away, so the land was taken back to the county government. Although it was medium-sized land, the price should not be expensive. Husband, how about we buy it? It's more than 200 acres. In the spring, it is hired to hire the village laborers to turn the land well and then you can plant it."
Speaking of land, Xu Mingzhu showed her as smart as a real estate businessman in her previous life.
Li Su opened her mouth and found that she was speechless.
If you have money, you buy land. This value is seriously contrary to him. Of course, you have to pile up money in the warehouse and lie on it and play happily every day...
However, seeing Xu Mingzhu looking excitedly ready to do something big, Li Su opened her mouth and heard her seemingly uncontrollable voice.
"All ladies make the decision..."
"Okay, my husband eat slowly. I will calculate it now. I will take my servants to measure the land tomorrow, and then put on my imperial uniform and go to the county to discuss the price with the magistrate Zhou..."
Xu Mingzhu turned around and left excitedly.
******************************************************************
Chang'an City is filled with suffocating low pressure.
After Li Shimin issued the order to recruit people, the dissatisfaction between the court officials and the people also heated up. There were scholars and scholars in Chang'an City criticizing the national ills and criticizing evil politics. During the Zhenguan period, the speech was relatively free. Regardless of whether there was any fame or not, scholars would generally not be punished if they scolded the government. Unless they shouted slogans on the streets and gathered crowds to incite rebellion, the government would arrest this mental illness in prison to see if he could still treat it. In addition, they would curse the court and accuse the national affairs. The government would generally ignore it.
The crowd seemed to be deliberately incited, and the scholars' tone gradually became more intense, and they became more and more sarcastic day by day. In the end, they were no longer able to point at the Tai Chi Palace and curse.
Whether the subjects were talking or cursing, the recruited civilians from all over the country still followed the will and led by local officials and servants, teams of people entered Chang'an City and walked into the construction site of the Daming Palace.
The atmosphere in the court dropped to freezing point, and the relationship between the monarch and the ministers was unprecedentedly tense. When the civil officials advised him one after another, their words became more and more intense like the scholars who were talking about the public.
A few old ministers who have been storms have smelled an unusual smell.
It's too abnormal, the emperor is abnormal, the court officials are abnormal, and the people's discussions are not normal.
Everything seemed to have been deliberately incited by someone secretly. From the beginning, to the fermentation, and finally broke out, the whole process was so fast that it was dazzling.
In the court, there seemed to be an undercurrent that was unaware of it.
The old foxes became quiet, with a layer of white sweat coming out from behind. They hid in the crowd and closed their mouths tightly, but their eyes were staring at Li Shimin without blinking.
But those court officials who had not yet practiced their homes were unaware of it. It was so pleasant to give advice to the country in the Golden Palace.
Li Shimin, who was sitting high in the hall, looked gloomy, but his eyes showed a complex light that was flashing in his eyes, quietly watching the various aspects of the ministers in the hall. His sharp eyes slowly swept across everyone's face.
On the third day of the second month of the 12th year of Zhenguan, the bull Jinda, the Langya County, submitted a memorial again, criticizing the evil politics. His words were never heard of.
This memorial finally ignited the long-term relationship between the monarch and his subjects for many days.
Li Shimin was furious and ordered Niu Jinda to be taken into Dali Temple. Cheng Yaojin and Li Ji and many other veterans pleaded for mercy. Li Shimin was unmoved and ordered to leave the palace. Jinwu Guard took people, and Niu Jinda was eventually locked up in Dali Temple.
This is an incident that shocked Chang'an City and even the world.
A founding hero, a veteran of the country. He was imprisoned in prison for accusing the current affairs. Many old ministers pleaded for mercy but failed. Li Shimin's ruthless face was particularly prominent this time.
…………
When the news reached Taiping Village, Li Su still couldn't believe it.
Li Shimin in history books should not be like this. Even if it is mixed with water, it should not be so biased. Li Shimin's mind has always been one of the advantages of his honorific title of "Tian Khan". He is good at accepting advice, broadening his ideas, and opening up audio-visual activities are the basis for the prosperity of Zhenguan.
Now, how could he sin against others because of his words? What's more, the crime of a loyal founding official was the punishment.
This is not right! Everything seems to be wrong!
However, no matter how Li Su doesn't believe it, it is an ironclad fact that Niu Jinda was imprisoned.
Li Su was anxious.
He has never been a great charity. In the Zhenguan year, so many people were imprisoned, guilty, wronged, and hundreds of people. Li Su has always ignored it. Li Su's life and less involved in the government are his principles.
However, this time, it was Niu Jinda who was imprisoned.
Li Su could not ignore it because he truly regarded Niu Jinda as an elder, and because Niu Jinda gave him a crown ceremony. In this era, the crown ceremony is a strong relationship, which is stronger than the relationship between master, apprentice, uncle and nephew, and can be regarded as a father and son.
Even if Li Su can't sit idly by because of this relationship, and if he pretends to be deaf and dumb, his reputation will be ruined.
Without hesitation, Li Su immediately rode a horse to Chang'an City.
After entering the city, he went straight to Dali Temple. The servant at the entrance of Dali Temple stopped him with a cold expression. His Majesty gave an order to prohibit anyone from visiting Niu Jinda, and the county would not do it.
Li Su was so angry that he pointed at the officer and cursed a few words, but the officer was unmoved at all.
No one dared to disobey the imperial edict for a small county, and Li Su's angrily scolding did not achieve any effect.
He turned around and ran to Cheng Yaojin's mansion. The gate of Cheng's mansion was closed and no visitors were seen. Even Li Su, a guest who was too familiar to him, turned around and went to Li Ji's mansion, Changsun mansion, Li Jing's mansion...
The powerful families seemed to have made an agreement and would not see any guests.
Everyone is crazy...
Li Su gritted her teeth and went straight to Tai Chi Palace this time.
In the vast and boundless square of Chengtianmen, Li Su stood in the middle of the square with his horse, staring at the towering palaces and towers in the distance with complex eyes, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
After a long silence, Li Su threw away the reins in his hand, knelt in front of Chengtian Gate, and shouted loudly: "I, Jingyang County, the supervisor of the Firearms Bureau, Li Su, asks for a visit to Tianyan!"
