"Replying to Your Majesty, it was requested by me.
Li Zhi looked at Yun Chu and said, "Did you ask for it? Since you can ask for a favor from Ying Gong, why not ask for a bigger official position?"
3 "Because Weichen has just studied hard for three years from Taixue, and was lucky enough to participate in the great competition, and won by chance. In addition, Weichen has made minor contributions to the country in the past, so he thinks he is still qualified to be a seventh-grade county captain."
"Did you know that just after you finished writing the paper, Li Yifu and Chu Suiliang circled a big nine characters on your paper?
Do you think you are worthy of this nine-character title?" Li Zhi said and took a step forward, almost staring into Yun Chu's eyes.
Yun Chu took a step back respectfully and said, "If Li Yifu were not Wei Chen's mentor, Wei Chen's papers should be ranked among the top three."
"Oh, are you really so talented?"
Yun Chu lowered his head and looked at Li Hongwu's eyes and said, "Jinchangfang can be visited by His Majesty many times, which already speaks volumes, even if the paper Wei Chen answered in Sifang Pavilion was not good.
What do you think your Majesty thinks of the answer to the paper called Jinchangfang in front of you?"
Li Zhi looked at Yunchu for a long time and said: "How brave! I'm here to ask you, are you responsible for the two rotting corpses hanging on the lotus pond in Dongshi?"
Yun Chu saluted and said, "Exactly."
Li Zhi said angrily, "If the world is peaceful and the universe is bright, why would you do such an outrageous thing?"
Yun Chu took a step back again and saluted: "Tuen Supervisor Feng Zhong swallowed up a total of 200 yuan of special funds for transforming the saline-alkali land in Toad Ling. Zhao Sanlang, a subordinate official, embezzled the names of seventeen government soldiers in Wannian County by false claims and names. Auxiliary horse purchase money of one hundred and thirty-three dollars.
I discovered this problem when I checked Wannian County's treasury, grain depot, and Liu Cao's account books.
They were ordered to make up the money they had embezzled within two days. As a result, they were given the opportunity to atone for their crimes, but they committed suicide by hanging themselves that night.
I believe that when a person dies, the money and food that is greedy must be returned to the public. In order to deter those who come after him, he hangs his body as a punishment. I think there is nothing wrong with it. "
After listening to Yun Chu's words, Li Zhi looked back at an official who was holding a pen and taking notes at any time. The Secretary Cheng nodded slightly, indicating that what Yun Chu said was well-documented.
"Even so, you could have used other methods. Why did you use such brutal methods in Chang'an?"
Yun Chu saluted again and said: "Because Wei Chen grew up in the Western Region, he has not learned many good ways to shock people's hearts. Moreover, Wei Chen thinks that there is no better way than hanging a corpse."
"Lie to Kangxi"
Li Zhi thought for a while and said, "Oh, since it is a public matter, it must be handled openly. I will pardon your innocence." Although Yunchu didn't know where he was guilty, he still saluted and thanked you, "Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Li Zhi looked back at Wu Mei, who had a big belly, and said to Yun Chu: "There must be people who are good at living. Since the two of them have failed the court and me, I can't help but be kind.
Let's do this. Let me repay the missing three hundred and thirty guan for them. After you go back, you can unwrap the corpse and bury it alive. "
Yunchu didn't think it was a good idea for Li Zhi to do this. If Li Zhi's wish was fulfilled, wouldn't it mean that his role as a villain during this period would be in vain? It took a lot of effort for him to make the people of Wannian County feel that it was right to abide by the law. By doing this, Li Zhi was going back to the situation before liberation. Yun Chu said with a cup of his hands: "Your Majesty is kind, and I am inexplicably grateful. However, these two people's The family papers have arrived, and Wei Chen has recovered part of the stolen money, and the other part of the money and food can be replenished by selling the prisoner's family papers." Li Zhi's brows immediately frowned, he did not expect that he would meet here Encountered a contradiction from a seventh-grade official.
At this time, Wu Mei said on the side: "Your Majesty wants to pray for the child in my belly. I am very grateful. If for the sake of this child, your Majesty forgets the strictness of the laws of the Tang Dynasty, it will not be beautiful. Concubine I thought that if His Majesty bought the prisoner's family records with a sum of money and then released him, wouldn't it be the best of both worlds?'
Li Zhi ignored Wu Mei's words and continued to look at Yun Chu and said: "In your eyes, there is no room for discussion about the laws?" Yun Chu shook his head and said: "If even the laws need to be discussed, Weichen will not know what to follow in the future. I will continue to be an official according to such rules.
"Okay! Remember what you said today. I don't want you to be lenient to you one day because you violated the law.
Since you follow the law, then continue. If you have violated the official records, you should sell them, sell them, and kill them if you need to. I will not violate the laws rashly, and I hope you can keep this intention, be cautious as an official, and be cautious as a person. . "
Yun Chu cupped his hands again and said: "Your Majesty's teachings, I will bear them in mind." After saying this, he wiped the corners of his eyes with his sleeves. Under Jiang Mo's urging, Yun Chu burst into tears.
Li Zhi was very satisfied with Yun Chu's reaction, so he specially rewarded Yun Chu with the fisherman he stole from the small water landscape in Jinchangfang.
Li Hong, who was very young, stood on his feet and held up a handkerchief to wipe Yun Chu's tears that kept flowing. Li Zhi looked at Yun Chu who was squatting down to accept Li Hong's tears, and sighed: "Don't forget the favor you received today!"
Yun Chu was indescribably grateful. Although Li Hong had wiped his tears, it might be because the ginger got into his eyes, causing his tears to still flow down endlessly, until Wu Mei's disdainful eyes met with the water from the canal. He rubbed his eyes hard, and then he stopped being moved by the emperor's favor.
After the dispute just now, the communication between the red-eyed Yun Chu and Li Zhi became smoother.
Yun Chu has put a lot of effort into every plant and tree in Jinchangfang. Therefore, no matter what Li Zhi asks about anything, he can speak clearly and clearly. With this kind of performance, Wu Mei's eyes are filled with contempt. Only then gradually dissipated.
When he came to visit the cafeteria, even Li Zhi was shocked and speechless by the nearly two hundred dishes displayed in the cafeteria.
A few people arrived at the noodle stall first. Li Zhi looked at the more than twenty dishes of noodles in front of him and asked Yun Chu. "Are these pasta?"
Although it was nonsense, Yunchu still pointed to the nearest bowl of noodles and told the emperor about its preparation, taste, production cost, and even selling price.
After some calculations by the two of them, Li Zhi was very satisfied with the profit of only one and a half copper coins for a bowl of noodles. "So, with such a huge canteen, even if it works all day long, the profit will be very little."
Yunchu said with a smile: "Your Majesty does not know, the reason why the price of this bowl of noodles is so low is to allow poor people to come to Jinchangfang to eat a bowl of noodles. Eating a bowl of noodles at a large restaurant in an environment like Changfang is a very important thing.
When you return to your hometown, you can brag to your neighbors for a long time.
However, for a rich man, how could such a bowl of noodles be worthy of his status? So... Yunchu brought a bowl of beef brisket, a bowl of braised mutton, and a bowl of roasted noodles from the steamed vegetable area. Red braised pork and a bowl of pork meatballs.
When a bowl of noodles was placed with these four dishes, Yun Chu pointed at the bowl of noodles again and said: "At this time, the price of this bowl of noodles has more than tripled."
Li Zhi frowned and thought for a while and said: "You mean, this bowl of noodles costs the same price, which is only three cents. If you put it together with these creams, it will become ten cents?"
Yun Chu smiled and said: "There is no wiser person than your Majesty. People with little money will find it a good deal to eat a bowl of noodles for three pennies."
A rich man who eats these four kinds of noodles together, and if this bowl of noodles costs only three pennies, is likely to look down on him. Not only did the guest not appreciate it, he also thought that the bowl of noodles was worthless and lowered his status. "
"Hahahaha..." Li Zhi burst into laughter.
Although Yun Chu knew the point of laughter in this paragraph, he was still a little baffled by Li Zhi's exaggerated smile. However, everyone around him, including Wu Mei, was laughing, so he had no choice but to open his mouth and laugh in embarrassment. .
Li Hong, who had always kept a straight face, saw Yun Chu smiling, so he opened his mouth and laughed. With this smile, Yun Chu suddenly realized that this child was really good-looking.
In fact, this is nonsense. Emperor Taizong and Queen Wende, these two people are recognized by the Tang Dynasty as the dragon and phoenix.
Li Zhi is also more frail-looking, with weak facial features, but also very handsome. As for Wu Mei, even with a big belly, she is the most beautiful pregnant woman Yun Chu has ever seen. If a child born from such a person is not good-looking, he will be a ghost. .
At first, Yun Chu really didn't want to pay attention to this child who died of a sudden illness in his twenties.
The more emotions you pour into this child at this time, the sadder you will be when this child dies in the future. If you don’t want to be sad, don’t have too much contact with it from the beginning.
"Yes, yes, this is how business should be done. Make little or no money from the weak, and make more profits from the rich and luxurious. Only in this way can business be happy.
It's a pity that many people in this world do business in the wrong way. They take more profits from the weak, but take less or no profits from the strong. It's really ridiculous, ridiculous. "
Regarding Li Zhi's words, Yun Chu believed that he spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Sitting in his position, to be honest, his interests are consistent with the interests of ordinary people.
When the country is peaceful and the people are healthy, he, as the emperor, can feel free and at ease. If the country is at war and the people rise up, he, the emperor, will be the one who suffers the most.
After seeing more than two hundred delicacies, Li Zhi had no intention of tasting them. On the contrary, the strong man behind him, as strong as a bear, walked all the way and ate one meal.
However, this bastard never refused to eat properly one after another. Instead, he took the kuaizi and tried the long table full of food one by one. No matter whether it was what he liked or not, he would eat it. I need to pick a piece of kuaizi.
After Li Zhi finished appreciating these dishes, he couldn't help but exclaimed: "Is this the long table banquet that your Jinchangfang is famous for?"
Yun Chu smiled and said, "Exactly."
Li Zhi added: "The people treat each other with such a feast, and the soldiers will have no regrets even if they fight hard."
