Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

Liu Tongfang didn't know how long he had been waiting outside, and he almost couldn't help but beat up Zhao Zhide.

After waiting until this afternoon, Li Yi'an pushed open the gate of the courtyard and took a look at them.

"Li Zhan, you finally came out."

Liu Tongfang felt relieved, and loosened his legs that were a little limp.

Zhao Zhide let out a sigh, and it was fine that Li Zhan wanted to see him, but he was afraid that he would not, so he led soldiers to raid his house, and ended up in the same fate as Zhu's.

Because of fear, he didn't even dare to deal with his own injuries.

"Come in!"

Li Yian said lightly.

As soon as they approached Li Qian's house, they frowned at the same time, because the inside was very small, the layout was very casual, and there was a slight smell of herbs, which was very uncomfortable anyway.

No matter how uncomfortable they were, they couldn't show it, and stood aside cautiously.

"This is my brother-in-law!"

Li Yi'an looked at Ah Shui on the couch, and Li Qian watched them warily beside him.

Liu Tongfang frowned when he saw that Ah Shui was so badly injured that if he couldn't make it through, he would die, not to mention why Li Yi'an had such poor relatives. kill them all.

If it was him, with this ability and status, seeing his relatives being beaten like this, then the enemy would never see the sun the next day.

Now Liu Tongfang was only beaten with a swollen face, stabbed in the shoulder, kicked, and killed a few servants, it was Li Yi'an's kindness.

Zhao Zhide also thought of this, and suddenly felt that the swollen cheeks did not hurt, and quickly said: "I'm sorry about Li Zhan, I didn't know that the people below dared to be so reckless, I will bear all the medical expenses of this brother. I'm in Hangzhou city, and I have a house that is free. I think it's so small here. I'll send someone to send the title deed tomorrow. By the way, there are other issues such as the land. I'll give the title deed of [-] mu of land to this place tomorrow. Brothers as compensation, I will compensate for all the losses we caused in Lijia Village."

After finishing speaking, he looked at Li Yi'an cautiously, waiting for his final reaction.

Li Yi'an didn't say anything, just stood aside quietly.

After all, Li Qian was still a rural woman, she raised her head in surprise when she heard that the compensation was so much, but seeing that her husband was still unconscious, Li Yi'an did not respond, and she continued to remain silent.

Seeing that Li Yi'an didn't express his opinion, Zhao Zhide was even more flustered. He looked at Ah Shui's tragic situation, and seemed to understand something, and said, "Li Zhan, please wait for me!"

After all, he ignored the rain outside, rushed out for a while, came back with a small knife, gritted his teeth and stabbed the knife into his thigh, and blood flowed out instantly.

"what!"

Li Qian was also taken aback by him.

Zhao Zhide said again: "It was my fault for Li Zhan's matter. This brother was seriously injured to this point. This knife is my apology!"

Enduring the pain, he wiped the drops of water from his forehead, and said: "Come here, go and break the hands and feet of the housekeeper and all those who have done anything to the Li family village, and throw them out of our Zhao family, let them Fend for itself."

Liu Tongfang asked, "Li Zhanshi, do you think this is okay?"

He was stabbed in the shoulder and thigh, and he was thinking that Li Zhan should be relieved, right?

Li Yi'an finally nodded, and asked again: "Sister Qianqian, what do you think?"

Li Qian didn't understand anything, so she could only say, "I'll listen to Yi'an."

Li Yi'an waved his hand and said, "Patriarch Zhao, go down and bandage up! Mr. Liu will stay here."

If what Zhao Zhide did had nothing to do with Liu Tongfang, Li Yi'an would not believe it.

Liu Tongfang was also very nervous, but he had to confess: "As for Li Zhan, I have cooperated with Patriarch Zhao, but I have never been very clear about what he does, and I never imagined that they would do this."

He just wanted to shirk responsibility, and Zhao Zhide should bear all the responsibility.

Li Yi'an asked: "Do you really need land? Or do you use similar methods to seize the land of many people?"

Liu Tongfang said in a panic: "I really don't know what happened. It was all done by Patriarch Zhao. I can't think of so much."

"Why do you need so much land? Answer me!"

"The imperial court sent a batch of seeds called Zhancheng rice. According to the documents of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, the yield of this kind of seeds is more than twice that of the crops we plant. Because the Jiangnan area is most suitable for rice cultivation, the Ministry of Civil Affairs allocated a lot of seeds. , and then distributed to all farmers by our Hangzhou Governor’s Mansion.”

"So you keep the seed for yourself, you plant it yourself, and the proceeds are yours?"

"Yes, it is!"

Liu Tongfang didn't dare to deny it, and continued: "According to my speculation, next year at the earliest, the Tang Dynasty will go to war again. As long as there is a war, food will be needed, and the price of food will definitely rise by then."

"Your guess?"

Li Yian asked curiously.

According to the historical process, next year Li Shimin will clean up Liang Shidu, and then send troops to the Turks, and he will indeed fight.

Liu Tongfang nodded and said: "Your Majesty will definitely not let Shuofang's Liang Shidu go. There will probably be a fight next year. Liang Shidu is also supported by the Turks. As long as Your Majesty launches troops against Shuofang, the Turkic people will definitely take the opportunity to attack." Come to attack, His Majesty also wanted to avenge Weishui at that time, this battle can be fought, but these are all random guesses by me."

Li Yi'an was a little surprised, thinking that Liu Tongfang wasn't completely useless, and he could analyze it pretty well.

"So you plan to take advantage of your status and status to forcibly occupy the land, stockpile grain and sell it at a high price?"

Li Yian squinted his eyes, kicked over the table next to him, and said angrily: "You know, the land is the foundation of the people, and you are breaking the foundation of their existence."

Liu Tongfang was so frightened that he trembled all over. What he was most worried about was this. He had been avoiding it, but was met by Li Yi'an, and he said quickly: "Tomorrow, I will return all the land to the people unconditionally, and I will also do necessary things. compensation."

Li Yi'an's expression finally eased, and he said again: "How about the seeds of Champa rice?"

Liu Tongfang said: "If the rain hadn't come too suddenly, we would have been ready to breed."

"The imperial court gave you seeds, but you took them privately. You, the governor, did a good job!"

Li Yian said again.

"I returned all the seeds to the farmers according to regulations, and I never dared to hide them again."

Liu Tongfang continued to bow and said, "This is all my fault, but it hasn't caused too many consequences. I beg Li Zhan not to report this matter to the court."

If it is reported, he will definitely not be able to be the governor, and he will even be imprisoned.

Before punishing the Zhu family, Liu Tongfang didn't need to be so afraid of Li Yi'an.

But the Zhu family was defeated, and as the identities of Li Yi'an and the people around him were revealed, they were all existences that he could not afford to offend, so he had to be afraid.

"I'm begging you about Li Zhan's matter!"

Liu Tongfang pleaded: "In the future, Li Zhanshi will be in Hangzhou, and if I can be useful, just ask, even if I die, it's fine, as long as Li Zhanshi can let me go."

"Go back first, get ready to fight the flood, and bring Zhao Zhide here to find me tomorrow."

Li Yi'an pondered for a long time, and there were other calculations, waved his hand, dismissed him to leave, did not do anything else.

Liu Tongfang heaved a sigh of relief, he let himself go by doing so, bowed again, and then exited the gate.

"Sir, why did you let him go?"

Yuchi Baolin was very dissatisfied with this arrangement.
