Li He's forehead continued to sweat as he listened.
Be good!
What secret did I hear?
You won't be silenced, right?
Li He's heart almost jumped out of his throat.
At the same time, he also secretly thanked his godfather for urging him to follow Xu Tianhua's arrangements.
This Xu Tianhua is worthy of being a celebrity around His Majesty.
How much time has passed since he entered the palace? Your Majesty not only regards Xu Tianhua as an important minister, but also regards Zhao Ping as a pillar of talent.
"Xu Aiqing, if nothing happens, just retreat."
Chen Xuan smiled and said: "Sell the acacia wine, soap, and frosting sugar as soon as possible so that I can replenish my internal funds."
"Your Majesty, there really is something wrong."
"What's the matter?"
Chen Xuan frowned and said with a hint of displeasure: "I'm telling you, Xu Tianhua, don't push yourself too far."
"Given the military power and the coal mines, it means that Zhao Ping already has food and grass."
"What else do you want for him?"
"I don't want anything anymore."
Xu Tianhua said: "I just have something to report here."
"I will kill Huang Fengnian."
"Why?"
Chen Xuan said coldly: "No matter how you say it, Huang Fengnian is a seventh-grade county magistrate and an official of the imperial court. Even if there is a mistake, you cannot kill him in advance. It should be verified by the personnel department."
"Furthermore, a plague broke out in Yun'an County under his jurisdiction and was conquered. He is a minister with meritorious service."
"I planned to reward him well, but you beheaded him. If you don't tell me that you are ugly, I will give you a slap in the face."
"Back to Your Majesty, during Huang Fengnian's tenure, he colluded with bandits and forcibly collected civilian security fees."
Xu Tianhua said: "Your Majesty was kind and pardoned the taxes of the people of Yun'an County. Huang Fengnian knew that he could no longer make money from it, so he asked the bandits to raise the compensation fee to 50%."
"As public resentment boiled over, Mr. Zhao led his bodyguards to suppress the bandits."
"These are the letters between Huang Fengnian and the bandits."
"He lost the support of the people. After the official killed Huang Fengnian, the people of Yun'an County set off firecrackers to celebrate, just like celebrating the New Year."
"They are all praising His Majesty for being wise and assigning Qingtian to Yun'an County to make decisions for them."
With that said, Xu Tianhua also handed the collected evidence to Chen Xuan.
After Chen Xuan read it, he praised: "Not bad, well done."
"Corrupt officials like this should have their heads chopped off with a knife."
"Xu Aiqing, you and Mr. Zhao did a very good job."
"I'm very pleased."
"Tell me, what reward do you want?"
Forehead!
Xu Tianhua's head was full of black lines.
Am I saying this to let you praise me?
Say you want a reward?
I want you to realize something from it.
Helpless, Xu Tianhua could only remind him: "Your Majesty, didn't you find a problem in this?"
"question?"
Chen Xuan frowned and thought carefully, but couldn't think of anything. He slowly shook his head and said: "Xu Aiqing, please stop being so pretentious and say what you have to say all at once."
"Your Majesty, Huang Fengnian is just a county magistrate, and he can cooperate with bandits to plunder people's wealth and wealth."
Xu Tianhua explained: "What about the county governor?"
"Where's Zhou Mu?"
"What about other officials at all levels?"
"Could they also be colluding with the bandits?"
"Now that Mr. Zhao is suppressing bandits, even if he has military power, he is just a small seventh-grade wine tasting officer. If the county guard, state shepherd, and other high-ranking officials block him, what should he do? "
"Killing, for the following offenders, is easy to attract people's attention."
"If we don't kill, those people will allow the bandits to commit crimes, and it will be the common people who will suffer."
"Oh, yes, you really reminded me."
Chen Xuan also thought about it, thought for a while and said: "Then give Mr. Zhao a Shangfang sword. All corrupt officials can be killed as long as there is evidence."
"I will hand you a memorial later. Even if someone wants to say something, they will have to shut up as long as I am here."
"Thank you for your kindness, Your Majesty."
Xu Tianhua knelt down and thanked him again.
Li Yan opened his mouth several times, but said nothing.
Just sigh in my heart.
Our Majesty is just too soft-hearted, he believes whatever others say, and he even gave away Shang Fang's sword without hesitation.
You know, Shang Fang's sword is a magical weapon.
Behead the faint king from above, and behead the slanderous ministers from below.
Not only can we behead those corrupt officials who have colluded with the bandits, but we can also behead you, the emperor.
Aren't you worried?
But now that Chen Xuan is rising, if he dares to pour cold water on him, he can chop off his head first.
Li Yan could only change the subject and said: "Your Majesty, the old slave's godson is still kneeling next to him. Do you think he should be allowed to deliver the order?"
"No need to pass it on."
Chen Xuan waved his hand, "Mr. Zhao doesn't take my imperial edict seriously at all. Even if the imperial edict reaches him, it will be useless."
"What's more, Mr. Zhao has now gone to Qingzhou to suppress bandits. He should not be able to receive the last imperial edict."
"Then let the old slave's godson step aside first."
Li Yan suggested.
Li He glanced at him gratefully.
It’s better to be dad.
I know that if I continue to listen, I will definitely lose my head. I am saving my own life.
"Um."
Chen Xuan nodded, waved his hand, and sent Li He away.
Li Heru was granted amnesty, turned around and ran away.
It was just that his legs were a little numb when he was kneeling. He suddenly stood up, lost control, and fell to the ground.
But Li He didn't dare to stop at all.
Roll on the spot.
The door was almost there, and he could even reach the threshold with his hand.
However, at this moment, Chen Xuan suddenly thought of something and stopped him.
"Unlucky man, wait a moment and then get out."
"Yes, Your Majesty."
Li He hurriedly stopped the car and knelt there respectfully again.
"Xu Aiqing, you said before that Mr. Zhao and that girl from the Tian family are in love? Are they interested in getting married?"
Chen Xuan asked Xu Tianhua.
"good."
Xu Tianhua said: "If Tian Yi hadn't brought Tian Rou to the capital, I'm afraid the two would have gotten married by now."
"Then I will give him another gift."
Chen Xuan smiled and said, "I plan to grant you a marriage."
"Give Tian Rou to Zhao Ping as his wife."
"this……"
This time it was Xu Tianhua's turn to be in trouble.
Zhao Ping has a wife, who is also Flying Eagle General Liu Mengru.
Do you want Zhao Ping to divorce Liu Mengru?
Continuously, how can Tian Rou be a wife?
Is being a concubine still called a betrothal? Isn't that a slap in His Majesty's face?
"What's wrong?"
Seeing his hesitation, Chen Xuan asked, "Could it be that you were deceiving me before, that Tian Rou and Zhao Ping didn't secretly promise your love?"
"How dare I deceive Your Majesty? The two of them are really in love."
Xu Tianhua hurriedly explained: "It's just that Mr. Zhao already has a wife, daughter, and concubines."
"Mr. Zhao is a man who loves his wife and children. I'm afraid he won't agree to let Tian Rou be his wife."
"You have to agree even if you don't agree."
Chen Xuan's face darkened, "I grant you a marriage, do you also want to give me a concubine?"
"This is a gift."
"Not only Zhao Ping should be grateful to me, but his wife and concubines should also be grateful to me."
"I have given him so many benefits. If he dares to disobey me on this matter, I will chop off his head."
"I accept the order and will definitely bring this message to Mr. Zhao."
Xu Tianhua had no choice but to agree.
Liu Mengru is the Flying Eagle General, so he shouldn't mind giving up his position, right?
Forget it, let Zhao Ping have the headache.
He still focused on selling wine.
"Unlucky man, go and call Tian Rou in front of me, and I will choose a day to marry you."
"yes."
Li He took the order and rolled out of the imperial study.
Xu Tianhua had nothing more to report, so he said goodbye and left in a hurry.
He did not go home, but delivered the acacia wine to the wine shop.
The name of the wine shop is very simple and clear, just call it Acacia Wine Specialty Wine Shop.
Tell the guy inside that the sales will start early tomorrow morning, and the price will be 20,000 taels per jar.
Only ten jars are released every day. After ten jars are released, the price rises to 25,000 taels per jar. You can buy it or not.
After doing this, Xu Tianhua took fifty jars of acacia wine to the general's mansion.
That is Zhao Ping's father-in-law, so he must be fawned over.
"Who's visiting?"
Liu Dingbei was practicing his swordsmanship when he suddenly heard a report from his subordinates and thought he heard wrongly.
"Wasn't Xu Jiuguan demoted to Donghai County?"
"Why did you appear in the capital again?"
"This slave doesn't know."
The servant shook his head, "But the trade name reported by the person outside is Xu Tianhua, the only wine tasting officer in our capital."
"Please invite him to the living room first. I'll be there in a moment."
Liu Dingbei said indifferently.
But I was quite confused in my heart. I rarely interacted with Xu Tianhua. Why did he come to my house?
Liu Dingbei was puzzled.
I cleaned up, took a shower, changed into a set of clean clothes, and went to the living room.
"Congratulations to General Zhenbei, congratulations to General Zhenbei."
As soon as they met, Xu Tianhua held up his hands and congratulated him.
"Where does joy come from?"
Liu Dingbei wondered.
"General Zhenbei, I am here to visit you this time. I intend to give you some acacia wine as a gift."
Xu Tianhua said.
"What?"
Liu Dingbei lost his composure, widened his eyes and said, "Give me acacia wine as a gift?"
"The free kind?"
