People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 97 The body is not afraid of shadows
"It turns out that it is not difficult to do business," Cen Wenwen said.

Li Zheng took Cen Wen to the construction site in the residential area. It was noon now and many people were resting under the shade of the trees.

Cen Wenwen asked a villager, "Aren't you guys working?"

The villagers took a nap and didn't want to pay attention, opened their eyes and saw Li Zheng coming and stood up.

Li Zheng introduced: "This is Cen Zhongshu from the DPRK. He came to visit us. I know that you all have worked hard."

The villagers didn't know the etiquette, and they didn't know how to bow, but they said with a simple and honest smile: "We don't work at noon, it's morning and evening."

Cen Wenwen then asked: "Then your county magistrates force you to work?"

As soon as these words came out, several villagers stood up and said vigilantly, "Do you, an official, want to frame our county marquis?"

Several nearby villagers came to the front, and Cen Wenwen immediately took a few steps back and looked at Li Zheng aside.

Li Zheng quickly persuaded: "Don't be so excited, people just ask casually."

The villager said, "Zheng'er, if these officials bully you, you should tell your uncles and uncles."

The smile on Cen Wenwen's face became more bitter, and he hurriedly explained: "Everyone misunderstood, it's just a routine business, it's all business."

The villagers shouted again: "We can't just frame our righteous children in public affairs."

"Of course." Cen Wenwen nodded quickly.

There was no way to ask any more, Cen Wenwen left here and walked to the other side, and said to Li Zheng who was following him: "The county's popularity here is really good."

"It's just that they take better care of me."

Cen Wenwen then asked a few more villagers, and he probably understood the situation here.

Before leaving, Cen Wenwen said to Li Zheng: "Recently, many people in Chang'an have been struggling to recruit people's strength, and they have lost their lives."

"These things have been heard down there."

Cen Wenwen explained: "After His Majesty knew about this matter, he has now issued an decree. If such a thing happens again, it will never be tolerated. Now all parties are investigating whether there is such a thing."

"Cen Zhongshu is tired."

"It's just the duty of a courtier. The officer will report to His Majesty, and the officer will tell the truth about the matter of the county marquis."

"Walk slowly."

Li Zheng said goodbye to Cen Wenwen, and Li Yifu came up and asked, "Are we all right?"

"It's okay." Li Zheng said to Li Yifu: "Go ahead and spread the word, and our county will recruit people."

"Recruiting staff?"

"Now that the government has imposed such a ban, many people are expected to be out of work. Now is a good time for us to recruit people. The wages are still the same as before."

After thinking about it, Li Yifu understood Li Zheng's purpose.

"Xianhou's trick is really..."

Li Zheng: "Take advantage of the fire?"

Li Yifu shook his head, "It should be the bottom line."

Cen Wenwen returned to the court and reported the situation in Jingyang County to Li Shimin.

Li Shimin asked in a low voice, "So Li Zheng not only did not have to work hard, but also treated the villagers well?"

Cen Wenwen nodded, "That's true."

Li Zhengjing's popularity has always been very good, which is obvious to all.

Li Shimin went to Jingyang County several times and could feel the trust of the villagers in Li Zheng.

Li Zhengben was born in Jingyang County, and the villagers watched Li Zheng grow up.

Of course there will be suspicions and gossip.

The body is not afraid of the shadow, even if someone is gossiping, as long as Li Zheng does a good job, he will naturally not attack himself.

I thought that Li Zheng would suffer a little this time, or at least be impeached.

Li Shimin drank a sip of cold water in distress, and he really had to take care of the unfounded suspicions of the officials.

Although Li Zheng wants to draw a clear line, he does not want to distance himself from Li Zheng.

I don't know if Li Zheng will think too much about this time.

Li Junxian came to the front of the palace to report: "Your Majesty, you have found out who the land on Bashang belongs to."

Li Shimin sank and asked, "Speak."

"Here." Li Junxian first handed over a memorial, "It has been verified that the land on Bashang three months ago has been resold several hands."

Li Shimin slapped the table and shouted angrily, "There is a strict order in the DPRK not to sell the land privately, and there are people who dare to trade like this in spite of the DPRK's ban!"

Li Junxian lowered his head and explained: "First, it was sold to a wealthy family in Chang'an by a collateral line of the Changsun family, and the wealthy family sold it to a merchant in Luoyang at a relatively high price, and then changed hands several times to Qinghe. Cui's hands."

Li Shimin flipped through the memorial, which clearly stated when to trade and the specific money to be traded.

Li Shimin said to Li Junxian: "The names of the people involved in the memorial, take them down one by one! Take them all into the Dali Temple for interrogation."

Li Junxian asked, "There are the eldest grandson's family and five surnames..."

Li Shimin angrily threw down the memorial and said, "I'll give them a thorough investigation! I don't care if they are from the eldest grandson's family or five surnames!"

"Here!"

Li Junxian got up and went to work.

A storm seems to have led to a major case.

Cen Wenwen thought to himself.

Li Shimin asked the eunuch on the side to give Cen Wen a bowl of sour plum soup, "You've worked hard too, let's drink the soup."

Cen Wenwen took the bowl of tea soup, "Thank you, Your Majesty, for the soup."

In this hot summer, it is best to drink a bowl of sour plum soup.

In this season, it is difficult to drink sour plum soup like this to quench the heat and quench thirst.

Watching Cen Wenwen finish a bowl of sour plum soup.

No matter how you look at it, he seems to be very disgusted when he drinks.

Li Shimin also picked up the sour plum soup on his table and tasted it carefully.

The taste is obviously good too.

Li Shimin asked, "Is it bad?"

Cen Wenwen said with a smile, "It's delicious."

"Besides Jingyang, you should also check other places."

"The minister has retired."

Li Shimin sat alone in the Nectar Hall and said to himself, "Could it be that Cen Wenwen doesn't like sour plum soup?"

It might be that Cen Wenwen didn't like it at all.

Li Shimin instructed the eunuch: "The heat is unbearable now, so distribute some sour plums to the princes of various countries."

With sour plums to relieve the heat, they should be better off too.

More than an hour later, the palace maid delivered a package, "Your Majesty, His Royal Highness King Wei has sent some ice."

"Ice? Where did he get the ice?"

There are also some Tibetan ice in the palace, but the amount is very small and should be used sparingly.

The palace maid explained: "The person sent by His Royal Highness King Wei said that it was the ice made by Li Zheng using a recipe."

Li Shimin took the package and opened it to see a package full of crushed ice.

The palace maid added: "I said that the iced mung bean soup is the best to eat at this season, and Cen Zhongshu has eaten the iced mung bean soup."

No wonder he disliked Cen Wen so much when he gave him sour plum soup, it turned out that they had already eaten ice-cold!

I still take sour plum soup as my baby?

The palace maid also said: "As much as you want, don't use it sparingly. If your majesty needs it, you can send it every day."

　When the family encounters something, they have to rush out to pick up their relatives. Today is the third watch, and tomorrow will be added.
