Li Zhi, don't be a coward

Chapter 486

Tai Chi Palace, Anren Hall.

Li Jingxuan knelt in front of Empress Wu, weeping and crying uncontrollably.

Empress Wu looked at him helplessly. After so many years, it was the first time she saw a man in his 30s crying like a 300-month-old child.

"How wronged were you in the school? Did Li Qinzai beat you, scold you, or starve you?" Empress Wu said helplessly.

Li Jingxuan cried: "Li Qinzai...he is not human!"

"Huh?" Empress Wu was shocked, and looked Li Jingxuan up and down.

Pointing to the bag on his head that hadn't dissipated, Li Jingxuan wept and said, "The bag on my head was plotted by Li Qinzai."

Empress Wu frowned: "Li Qinzai is already an adult man, so he wouldn't be so naive, so use this method to plot against you?"

"The people of Ganjing Village are simple and honest. Li Qinzai is the only cancer in the village. Apart from him, I can't think of anyone else who is so mad."

Empress Wu leaned back lazily, and said indifferently: "Li Jingxuan, you must have evidence for what you say and do. If you can produce evidence, I will order Li Qinzai to be punished for the crime of mutilating his colleagues. Do you have evidence?"

Li Jingxuan was speechless and drooped his head.

What evidence does he have, that he can do such wicked things without leaving a trace, this is clearly a talent.

Empress Wu looked at Li Jingxuan who was still in a bit of a mess, and said, "What's going on with your current appearance?"

Li Jingxuan opened his mouth, and was about to say that none of Li Qinzai's disciples were human, but just as he was about to speak, he suddenly remembered that two of those disciples were princes, and one of them was born to the empress in front of him.

If Li Xian is not a human being, is Empress Wu still a human being?
Li Jingxuan immediately regained consciousness, but he still told the truth about what happened before and after being aggrieved.

The matter is not complicated. After Li Jingxuan was drenched in feces and scared by snakes all over the room, he happened to see the four-person criminal gang sneaking behind the forest from the window. Everyone's appearance was recorded in his In my heart, I also clearly understood that they did this.

After listening to Li Jingxuan's narration, Empress Wu sighed again, not knowing whether to feel pity or anger in her heart.

Li Jingxuan is undoubtedly a member of the Queen's Party. These years, he has no hope of promotion in the Hongwen Museum. As a former servant of the East Palace, Li Zhi almost ignored him. So after his 30s, Li Jingxuan's life became more and more transparent, and he simply changed his family. , into the Queen's Party.

This time was the first time Empress Wu assigned him a task. The content of the task was very simple. Take full control of Ganjingzhuang Academy and win over the hearts of the students. These students are not easy, and they will never be used by Li Qinzai in the future.

Downplaying Li Qinzai's influence among the students is also a foreshadowing for the future layout.

The task is not difficult, but it is a pity that Li Jingxuan obviously did not complete it, and made a mess.

Whether he underestimated Li Qinzai's prestige among the students, or underestimated the degree of bastards of the students, is beyond the question.

In short, the inside and outside of Ganjingzhuang Academy are like a piece of iron, and it is really difficult for outsiders to blend in and be accepted by everyone.

Empress Wu sighed and said: "It's a long-term thing for me to appoint you as a doctor of the school. You don't want to make the students love you for a while. As long as your words and deeds are dutiful and gentle, the students will naturally agree with you. And you, Not long after I went to the school, I got into trouble with the students."

"Li Jingxuan, is it because you are not as capable as others, or is it that I misunderstood someone?"

Li Jingxuan was flustered in his heart, and said: "It's my fault. I was in a hurry to control the school, and my words and deeds may have revealed some thoughts..."

Empress Wu lowered her face, and said slowly: "Li Qinzai, your Majesty and I both think that he may have the Mohist heritage. Although we can't see the quality of 'combined love' in him, but the character of 'non-gong' is also true. I can see some clues..."

"Li Qinzai is not an ambitious person, nor is he a person who takes the initiative to harm others. It stands to reason that the palace should be at ease with him, but he was born in the British government and has superb abilities. , and has a certain power in his hands, it is hard to say whether he will become Cao Cao and Huo Guang."

Li Jingxuan bowed his head and said: "Yes, I understand the empress' concerns."

Empress Wu's eyes gradually turned cold, and she said: "It was not easy for the ancestors to obtain this country. Your Majesty and this palace ruled it together. There are some hidden dangers. This palace wants to eliminate it in the bud."

Li Jingxuan raised his head impressively, and was a little shocked when he heard the words "co-governance", but after raising his head, he didn't dare to look directly into Empress Wu's eyes, so he quickly lowered his head.

"Li Jingxuan, what you have done these days has disappointed me, but you have to go back and pretend nothing happened. You can't rush to take control of the school," Empress Wu said with a twitch of her mouth, "Take it easy, Arch a pawn, there will be a day of success."

Li Jingxuan should be respectful.

…………

After the autumn harvest in Ganjingzhuang, farmers entered the slack period.

Build roads, build warehouses, dig ditches, and continue to arrange them.

Every morning, the farmers carried shovels, hoes and various tools to the construction site, joking and laughing all the way.

Although this year's autumn harvest is not ideal, the farmers did the calculations and were pleasantly surprised to find that this year's income is actually higher than in previous years. In their limited decades of life, this year's income has already set a lifetime record.

In the end, it was thanks to Li Qinzai’s work-for-work relief. Of course, it also benefited from the government’s efforts to suppress grain prices in Guanzhong and the north this year. .

Li Qinzai got up very early today.

The main reason for getting up early was because of Cui Jie, who planned to fight her for another [-] rounds last night, but Cui Jie shyly pushed him away and told him that her period was coming.

The depressed Li Qinzai had no choice but to go to bed early.

Facing the morning sun, Li Qinzai squinted his eyes, as if...he hadn't seen the morning sun for a long time. The sun he saw was usually hanging directly above his head, accompanied by people in the backyard respectfully inviting them to have lunch sound.

"Tomorrow...no, starting today, be a hardworking, brave and kind person, feed the horses, chop firewood, maintain world peace, and I will rise with the sun." Li Qinzai faced the rising sun, clenched his fists and made a vow of justice.

Cui Jie was covering her lower abdomen with one hand. On the first day of menstruation, her abdomen always had a dull pain.

Hearing Li Qinzai's oath, Cui Jie rolled her eyes at him angrily, and said, "It's fine to be brave and kind. Who will show your husband's hard work? Things like feeding horses and chopping firewood are done by servants. My husband does these hard things himself. What is the system?"

Li Qinzai thought for a while, and said very casually: "Then change it, feed the horse and chop firewood and cross it out."

Cui Jie laughed again: "Maintaining peace or something, it should be to save the world from war, right? Even the emperor can't do this. Husband is sure he can do it?"

Li Qinzai was stunned for a while, and realized that he really couldn't do it.

So Li Qinzai sighed: "Maintaining world peace is also crossed out..."

Seeing that Cui Jie was about to speak, Li Qinzai resigned righteously: "You are enough, this is all I have left. Rising with the sun every day, this is my bottom line!"
