God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 208 Official Business

Before Li Er could react.

Then Liu Shixiong suddenly said loudly: "Your Majesty, I am guilty. In the ten years since I served as the county magistrate of Huyi, I have embezzled at least 30 yuan, ten thousand taels of silver, one thousand taels of gold, one thousand acres of land, and married thirty concubines. In Huyi County, he oppressed the common people and killed the big households..."

This guy, like a bamboo tube pouring beans, revealed all his crimes.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Li Er was also stunned.

After a while, Li Er asked in disbelief: "Liu Shixiong, are you telling the truth?"

Liu Shixiong raised his head and said: "Your Majesty, what I said is true. I was deceived by lard before. I am ashamed of your Majesty and of Tang Sheji. What I should be most grateful to is Huyi. County Bo Duhe, if it weren't for his book, I wouldn't have understood so many truths, Du He is right, happiness is hard to come by, but it is also easy to come by, the tone is fearful, it is better to let go of everything."

After a pause, Liu Shixiong continued: "Let go of everything, happiness, even in prison, I can feel happiness, and if I continue to hide, I can only live on in the world, sinking into the torment in my heart...I wish I could not I met Bo Duhe earlier in Huyi County, listen to him talk about these principles."

Li Er frowned furiously, picked up the book, and slammed Liu Shixiong on the head.

"Zhen, I want to kill you. As an official of the Tang Dynasty, you actually corrupted the law and oppressed the common people. I want to kill your whole family!" Li Er roared.

Liu Shixiong showed a relieved smile: "Chen, thank you Your Majesty, it is a kind of happiness to die like this."

Li Eryi waved his hand: "Come here, send Liu Shixiong to the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, Wei Ting, you should lead someone to investigate this matter quickly."

Wei Ting, Minister of Dali Temple, agreed immediately and began to investigate Liu Shixiong.

Li Er immediately ordered to retreat.

With Li Er's personal order, the matter was investigated very quickly.

In the evening, Wei Ting rushed back from Huyi County and entered the palace to meet Li Er.

Wei Ting reported: "Your Majesty, what Liu Shixiong said in court this morning is true."

Li Er was furious and slapped the table.

"It's really unreasonable. The dignified magistrate of Huyi County did such a thing. Is he worthy of me? Is he worthy of the society of Tang Dynasty and the people of Huyi County? It's really unreasonable..."

Seeing Li Er angry, even Wei Ting dared not show his anger.

After a long while, Li Ercai said: "Wei Ting, you will personally supervise the handling of this matter, confiscate Liu Shixiong's family property, and confiscate all of his property. Originally, I should have executed his whole family. For the sake of Liu Shixiong's voluntary confession, I only beheaded him." One person and the rest of the family members will all be exiled, and will never return to Huyi County."

"Yes!"

Wei Ting hurried to handle the matter.

That night, Li Er stayed up until midnight, not to deal with political affairs, but to finish watching "Du He Talks About Happiness".

On the morning of the second day, when the ministers saw Li Er's eyes red, they thought they were troubled by Liu Shixiong's affairs and stayed up all night. They didn't know that Li Er just finished reading Du He's new book last night.

After announcing Liu Shixiong's disposition, Li Er picked up the book and said in front of everyone: "My dear friends, I had a rough look at this book last night. Although what Du He said is full of mistakes, there are also many truths. , especially after reading this book, it can be thought-provoking, and you can fully understand your own mistakes. Liu Shixiong is a living example. Therefore, I decided to allocate money from the treasury to order [-] copies of "Du He Talks About Happiness" from Du He, and distribute them. All the officials of the Tang Dynasty who have been to the Tang Dynasty have to devote half an hour every day to study this book, together with the Handbook of Integrity and Self-discipline of Officials of the Tang Dynasty. "

What Li Er thought was that there was definitely not only Liu Shixiong in the Tang Dynasty, but there must also be Zhang Shixiong and Wang Shixiong. It would be great if these moths could be caught through a book.

Everyone was a little dumbfounded.

Ten thousand books, that is not a small sum.

In recent days, His Majesty has been crying for poverty every day, why is he suddenly generous at this time.

Changsun Wuji hurriedly stood up: "Your Majesty, the book "Du He Talks About Happiness" costs 30 renminbi, and 30 copies are [-] renminbi. For such a huge expenditure, I think I should forget it."

Li Er waved his hand: "I have made up my mind on this matter, and it is useless for anyone to dissuade you."

……

The order of [-] books was personally sent to the furniture factory by Zhao Yang, the housekeeper, and he told Du He face to face.

When Du He got the news, you squatted on the ground and brushed your teeth.

Hearing the news, he stood up excitedly, spit all the foam in Zhao Yang's face with a puff.

"Oh, Mr. Zhao, I'm sorry, I'm sorry..."

Du He hastily put down the toothbrush and quilt, and stretched out his hands to wipe it off, but he didn't know that the more he wiped it off, the more he wiped it off.

Zhao Yang was so angry that he almost wanted to hit someone, but unfortunately he didn't dare to do it.

"Uncle Huyi, you are not so excited, are you?" Zhao Yang said helplessly after finally cleaning it.

Du He chuckled: "Director Zhao, you don't understand this. My Datang Study now has more than 50 people. There are so many people waiting to eat. No order means no business. Workers The matter of eating has not been settled. Your Majesty is really sending charcoal in a timely manner this time. Mr. Zhao, please tell Your Majesty for me that this matter will definitely be done properly. The [-] books will be delivered within [-] days."

Du He couldn't believe it at first, but when he saw the deposit of 5 yuan brought by Zhao Yang, he couldn't help but not believe it.

He thought to himself, when did His Majesty Li Er become so generous.

This incident really made Du He angry.

Especially the common people heard that Du He's book can catch corrupt officials, even those who are not interested in reading should buy a copy and read it carefully.

For a time, there was an upsurge in reading "Du He Talks About Happiness" in Chang'an City.

At this time, the upsurge of "Romance of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" had not yet passed.

Datang Study has a steady stream of orders, and Yang Hao smiles from ear to ear all day long.

When Li Lizhi heard the news, she sneaked into Du He's room on a dark and stormy night, begging Du He to develop a new business for the furniture factory, because the capital of the furniture factory was spinning. Wooden chairs, the market is already saturated at this time. As for the bubble stick, although Li Lizhi has already put it into the furniture factory's business, he still can't make much money, especially when the secret of the soap locust liquid is discovered. After that, the income from selling bubble machines plummeted.

Faced with Li Lizhi's soft and hard foam, Du He finally decided to open up a production line for the furniture factory: making mahjong.

You know, in later generations, the popularity of mahjong can become crazy.

In some areas, every household has mahjong machines, and even one family has several mahjong machines.

Mahjong is a form of entertainment suitable for men, women, children, women and children. It is also known as the fashion of national entertainment. An 80-year-old lady and a seven- or eight-year-old child can fight for [-] rounds on the table.

Du He thought to himself, the prospect is bright!
