Fu Yao was not very confident because he felt that he was being opportunistic.
Which of Weiyang's books is not beautifully written and profound in intention? As a result, it only took me a few days to draw a few pictures and write a few sentences to create a book.
Moreover, the text here is simple and straightforward, and seems to be difficult to achieve elegance.
Therefore, Fu Yao looked at Li Shui nervously.
He needs the Master's approval.
Of course, Fu Yao also knew that his level was not very good, so he didn't ask his master to say anything good, he just said "fair" and he would be satisfied.
Li Shui ignored him and continued to turn his back.
The following pages are all about the measures taken by Fu Yao in Beidi County. Every time a measure is implemented, there are always some clowns who come out to block it.
This is normal. After all, there are conservative forces everywhere, and the implementation of the New Deal will definitely affect their interests.
However, in this comic, Fu Yao is a resolute and courageous man who withstood all pressure with passion and the desire to benefit the people.
Strong, brave, and resourceful, all elements are concentrated in Fu Yao.
Seeing this, Li Shui roughly understood why Fu Yao refused to give his real name. He was really bragging about himself.
However, it is this kind of adulation that makes this book so exciting.
In the last few pages of the book. It is His Majesty who wants to take Fu Yao back to the capital.
The day before going back, countless people came to Fu Yao's mansion and cried bitterly, hoping that Fu Yao could stay.
Fu Yao comforted them with a look of reluctance.
Finally, an old man stood up and said to everyone with tears in his eyes: "Everyone, Mr. Fu Yao, that is the son of Da Qin. We in Beidi County are living a good life, but the people in other places are still suffering. . We can't stop Mr. Fu Yao, let him help other poor people have enough food and clothing."
So the people bowed down to Fu Yao with tears in their eyes.
The book ends here, and Li Shui was filled with admiration.
He said to Fu Yao: "This last scene was well written."
Fu Yao whispered: "I'm not making this up. People really went to my place that night. Some people even wanted to see me off. It's just that my father was busy investigating Hu Hai's affairs at that time and ordered soldiers to surround the camp. These The people are not allowed to get close, so we can only give up."
Li Shui nodded: "That's it."
Fu Yao asked nervously: "Master, how do you like my book?"
Li Shui clapped his hands and said, "Okay!"
Fu Yao asked in surprise: "Okay?"
Li Shui nodded: "Very good. I like it."
Princess Weiyang's writing style is indeed good, but no matter how good it is, it is still the writing style of the Qin Dynasty. The level of difficulty is somewhat similar to Historical Records, and it was still a little difficult for Li Shui to read.
But Fu Yao's book is different. The writing is simple and there are illustrations.
This may be the first comic book ever published.
Fu Yao was still not confident, so he said cautiously: "Master, are you trying to comfort me? My book...is it really good?"
Li Shui hummed: "It's indeed very good. First of all, the format of your book is innovative and eye-catching."
Fu Yao thought to himself: It is indeed the master, he is really smart in what he says. My book that cut corners turned into an innovative book when he said it.
Li Shui added: "Secondly, Chunyu Yue advocated etiquette, while Li Si advocated using officials as teachers. After struggling for so long, the effect was very mediocre."
"Those people work hard every day, and when it's time to rest, they can finally take a breather. But you ask them to read some laws and read some scriptures. Isn't that too boring?"
"So, several years have passed, and the people still can't read a word and live in a haze every day. What's the difference between them and pigs and dogs?"
"But your book is different. It's full of fun, pictures, words, and stories. People will definitely love to read it."
"And after reading the paintings, you can combine them with the paintings to understand a few words. Over time, over time, you can change from illiterate to semi-literate."
Fu Yao's eyes lit up: Does my book still have this function?
Li Shui looked at Wei Yang and said with a smile: "Of course, if the essay has beautiful words, profound ideas, and far-reaching influence, you will never be able to compare with Princess Wei Yang. Princess Wei Yang's books are for scholar-bureaucrats and scholars. , and your book is for illiterate people and children who have not yet reached adulthood."
Fu Yao grinned, looking very happy.
After all, he thought that his book would be criticized as worthless. Now that someone is willing to read it, it is an unexpected surprise.
When one has low expectations, it is easy to be satisfied.
Li Shui continued: "The third reason is even more important. What you did in Beidi County is undoubtedly correct and has been approved by His Majesty."
"It's just that there are too many pedantic people in the world, and they always don't understand what our masters and disciples do."
"Now your book comes at the right time. I have a premonition that once this book is released, many people will flock to it. By then, people all over the world will understand our policies and support us even more."
Fu Yao was so excited when he heard this that he couldn't help but clenched his fists.
Li Xin became more and more curious as he listened. He reached out and took away the comic book from Li Shui's hand, and then read it with relish.
Li Shui said to Fu Yao: "Tonight I will have the craftsmen of Shang Jun's Courtyard make the plate and start printing tomorrow. It is expected that it will be available for sale within ten days."
Fu Yao's blood boiled when he heard this, and he asked Li Shui: "Then how much money can I get?"
Li Shui coughed dryly: "Well, you should go to Shang Jun's Courtyard and ask. Ji Nu has more than a dozen accountants, and they know it very well. In short, the more this book is sold, the more money you will get. more."
Fu Yao nodded vigorously.
At this time, a young eunuch said outside the door: "Master Banished Immortal, General Li. Your Majesty invites you."
Li Shui and Li Xin looked at each other, both a little puzzled.
It's been so long since the court meeting ended, why is His Majesty suddenly looking for someone again?
Li Shui and Li Xin came out and asked the young eunuch outside: "Your Majesty called us, what's the matter?"
The young eunuch said, "I don't know."
The young eunuch is someone who serves Ying Zheng, so it is impossible for him to know everything. Maybe Ying Zheng didn't let him say it.
Li Shui and Li Xin left with their heads full of questions.
They followed the young eunuch to Ying Zheng's study and saw Zhao Teng waiting inside.
After saluting, Li Shui looked at Zhao Teng curiously: "Master Nei Shi, you can just slander me in court, but you actually want to falsely accuse me in private?"
Zhao Teng glanced at Li Shui and sneered: "I just have one thing that I can't figure out, so I just wanted to ask for confirmation."
Li Shui looked like he was all ears.
Zhao Teng said: "In the court hall, the banished immortal once took out a photo, claiming that it was taken by Han Mei's slave when he committed a murder, right?"
Li Shui nodded: "Exactly."
Zhao Teng said: "However, I feel that there is something wrong with this photo."
Li Shui groaned and suddenly realized: "It turns out that Lord Nei Shi is here to avenge Han Mei. Are you his accomplice?"
Zhao Teng: "..."
If it weren't for the sake of the world, I really wouldn't want to talk to this guy.
Zhao Teng took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then said to Li Shui: "I have been to the cell. The light in the cell is dim, but in your photo, the appearance of the person is clear. Why is this?" ?Can you explain?"
Li Shui said: "Brother Zhao must have seen it when I took the photo of Ji Ming just now? I have a lamp here with some materials in it. If it is suddenly lit, it will emit a strong light."
"The moment the strong light illuminated the person's face, the photo was taken. Is there any doubt in this?"
"If Brother Zhao has a good memory, he should be able to recall that when Yangwei was about to die, he repeatedly chanted about bolts from the blue and divine punishment."
"He clearly mistook this bright light for lightning, so he thought there was something different in the sky, so he lost his mind and fell off the city wall."
Zhao Teng was a little reluctant and turned to look at Li Xin: "General Li, you have also taken photos, is that right?"
Li Xin nodded and said naturally: "Yes, there was a strong light when I took the photo."
Zhao Teng asked in confusion: "Isn't General Li curious when he saw this white light like lightning?"
Li Xin said: "I'm curious. I also asked Brother Huai. Brother Huai told me that I am a general with extraordinary prowess and a hero destined by God. It's not surprising that I have strange appearances occasionally."
Ying Zheng looked at Li Xin helplessly: "You just believe this nonsense?"
Li Xin laughed dryly: "Actually, I don't really believe it. But...Brother Huai has spared no effort to praise you so much. If I ask more about it, it will seem disrespectful."
Ying Zheng was speechless.
Zhao Teng thought for a while, cheered up, and said to Li Shui: "Even if this photo was really taken by the banished immortal. However, Sheep Tail kills people in just an instant. When did you get the news? Wait until you get the news , arrange the camera, the person may have been killed long ago. How do you take photos calmly?"
Ying Zheng also looked interested.
Obviously, he also had some doubts about this.
Li Shui coughed dryly and said, "It is too common to kill people and silence them."
"This thief is so bold that he dares to openly frame Mr. Fu Yao. Therefore, I have already made up my mind that someone will kill him."
"So I used a little trick and asked General Li to sue Yihuo. On the surface, the dispute started over a sword. In fact, my real purpose was to send Yong Chi to prison as a sword thief. In jail."
"In this way, no matter how smart Han Mei is, he would never have imagined that Yong Chi is actually the one who took the photo for me."
Ying Zheng exclaimed and said to Li Shui, "Is this so? Huai Guzi's idea is unbelievable."
Li Shuiqian laughed and said: "I don't think I have any other words, but I am quite clever. Of course, compared with His Majesty, I am still far behind."
Zhao Teng said faintly: "So, General Li's lawsuit against Yihuo is indeed a false complaint secretly planned by Ban Xian? In this case, it is also true for me and Feng Renji to sue you in court for using the government. Is that right?"
Li Xin looked at Li Shui with sympathy.
This time, I really focused on one thing but not the other. I could explain Zhang San but not Li Si. This is trouble.
Who knew that Li Shui was not in a hurry and said slowly: "Brother Zhao, you are wrong. I did not file a false complaint just to apply for false makeup. I filed a false complaint as a last resort to find the real culprit behind the scenes."
Zhao Teng was stunned: How dare you say such nonsense? And he said it so seriously?
He said to Li Shui: "However, after you complained, the sword was bought for 70 million yuan. How do you explain it? Isn't this using the government to make profits?"
Li Shui was speechless: "What does this have to do with me? I didn't expect that the sword could be sold for 70 million yuan. Besides, how could I deceive Han Mei without using the sword as a cover? I had no choice."
Zhao Teng was very angry. Huaiguzi's innocent look was really irritating.
Ying Zheng said calmly: "That's all, the issue of selling the sword has been decided. Don't mention it again in the future."
Zhao Teng and Li Shui both responded.
Ying Zheng continued: "Huai Guzi, please tell me, how on earth was this photo taken?"
Li Shui said: "After Yong Chi was imprisoned, I opened his joints and arranged him opposite the thief. Then I hid the camera with straw."
"That day, after Yangwei was imprisoned, Yongzhi began to pretend to be asleep. Sure enough, in the dead of night, when everyone was asleep, Yangwei quietly got up."
"Before entering the cell, you were searched, so the only murder weapon that Yangwei could find was a rope. When he used the rope to strangle the thief, Yongchi had quick eyesight and quick hands and took the photo."
Ying Zheng nodded: "That's it."
Zhao Teng said quietly: "So, Yong Chi watched the thief being killed?"
Li Shui said helplessly: "Lord Nei Shi, aren't you trying to find fault with your eggs? The thief who falsely accused Mr. Fu Yao deserves to die. What's more, if Yong Chi didn't watch him being killed, how would he get the evidence? ? Without evidence, will Han Mei continue to do evil in the DPRK? "
Zhao Teng sighed and stopped talking.
This time, he gave up completely.
Ying Zheng smiled slightly at Zhao Teng: "Go and rest."
For Zhao Teng, Ying Zheng has always been his favorite. Although the complaint failed this time, Ying Zheng knew that he was entirely motivated by enthusiasm.
So...it's not appropriate to encourage Zhao Teng in front of Li Shui, but it's okay to be nice.
After Zhao Teng left, Ying Zheng stood up and said to Li Shui: "That sword of yours... can help the hero achieve a great cause?"
Li Shui heard the caution in Ying Zheng's words. As an emperor, what worries you most is that your great achievements will shock your master.
He needs heroes and warriors, but he is also wary of heroes and warriors.
Li Shui immediately said: "Your Majesty, there is no need to worry, that sword is fake."
Ying Zheng was stunned immediately: "Fake?"
Li Shui nodded: "There is no sound of tigers roaring or dragons roaring at all. I have already ordered someone to look at it. It was originally a broken hatchet that was polished."
Ying Zheng was even more stunned: "Seventy million dollars, a broken hatchet?"
Li Shuigan smiled: "Exactly."
Ying Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You really played Li Si hard this time. But... Zhao Tuo claimed that this sword is real."
Li Shuigan said with a smile: "Who is willing to admit that he is a loser? Therefore, whether you have heard the roar of the tiger or the roar of the dragon, you have to bite the bullet and say you heard it. So... no one will expose this sword."
Ying Zheng suddenly felt that he had a deeper understanding of the word shameless.
Is this guy Huai Guzi so unscrupulous in deceiving others?
Unexpectedly, Li Shui coughed dryly, and then changed his face to look concerned about the country and the people: "Of course, I do these things for the sake of our country, the Qin Dynasty."
Ying Zheng was slightly startled and asked, "How do you say that?"
Li Shui whispered: "Of course there are some people who want to serve the country with all their loyalty, leave their names in history, and prove their talents with swords. There is no problem with this."
"But there are still some people who are disobedient and have evil intentions. They need this sword to verify their luck."
"After the results were verified, I found that I can only do nothing in this life and be a law-abiding official in His Majesty's court. If I rebel, I will definitely fail."
"In this way, the rebels will become obedient people, and won't the world be peaceful?"
Ying Zheng was stunned for a moment, then looked at Huaiguzi and said with emotion: "Huaiguzi, this plan of yours is really a good strategy for Anbang."
