God-level Consort of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 550
Du He looked at the excited ministers and suddenly shook his head.

He turned around and said to Old Fu: "Old Fu, go and tell the people, just say that your lords have repented..."

Old Fu turned around and was about to leave.

Changsun Wuji and the others were in a hurry.

This guy who just said that he wanted to donate money and food, turned his back on it in a blink of an eye, not to mention whether his reputation is good or bad, those people will have to eat and rush back immediately.

Thinking of the out-of-control scene just now, everyone felt their scalps go numb.

Changsun Wuji said angrily, "I just came out of Chang'an just now, and I didn't bring any money or food with me."

Du He took out a piece of paper, laughed and said: "That's easy, you can keep accounts, all you adults just need to report the number, I will immediately send people to the money bank and granary to get it, and immediately cash it out to the people. "

At this time, I only heard Li Er say: "Donating money and food is a good way. I will donate one thousand guan from the internal treasury to repair houses and buy food for these poor people."

Good guy, Li Er has spoken, who else dares.

Changsun Wuji said: "Du He, please remember that the old man donated three hundred guan of money and ten dan of wheat..."

"I, one hundred guan of money and five dans of rice!"

"And I……"

With Li Er at the beginning, the ministers were not to be outdone, and said their numbers one after another.

After a while, a list came out.

The money is three thousand guan, and the grain is more than 50 tons.

The people came back full of food.

Du He read out the list of donations in front of everyone: "Master Bi, the money is one thousand guan, my eldest grandson..."

The people are all grateful to Dade.

……

The people left happily.

The first batch of food had already been loaded into the carriage, and they followed the people to Chang'an City, and the remaining money and food were handed over to Xu Zhiyuan and Wu Jian, and distributed by Chang'an County and Wannian County.

Only then did the ministers take a closer look at the Lantian Coal Yard. It didn't matter if they didn't look at it, but they were all shocked when they saw it.

Looking around, it's all briquettes.

Piles of briquettes piled up like mountains.

Walking in it is like a maze.

Only then did everyone realize that the price of charcoal and firewood in Chang'an City could drop so quickly because of these briquettes.

Li Er said: "Du He... you deserve a lot of credit!"

The problem of heating the people in Chang'an City was Li Er's biggest headache before. The shortage of firewood and charcoal directly caused some people to die from the cold, which was the last thing he wanted to see.

Just when he had a headache, briquettes from Lantian Coal Mine were born out of nowhere, and then Du He even invented the stove, which solved this big trouble in one go.

What made Li Er even more gratified was that for those poor people who couldn't afford briquettes, Dream Group directly gave briquettes free of charge, which was to keep the people alive.

Hearing this, Du He hurried forward and said, "Your Majesty, if you talk about the merit of the briquettes, I dare not be greedy for credit."

"Oh?"

Everyone was stunned.

It's not due to Du He, who else?
I just heard Du He say: "Your Majesty, my lords, you don't know that the heating problem of the people in Chang'an can be solved so quickly, and the price of briquettes can be reduced to a penny each. The greatest credit is not on me, Du He, but on Yuchi Baolin." ...I think back then, when Yuchi Baolin learned that the prices of charcoal and firewood in Chang'an had risen, she personally went to Dream Group to find me, and ignored Wu Guogong's objection to go to the Lantian Coal Mine to dig coal to make briquettes. In less than half a month, the entire coal processing plant was piled up. After that, in order to let the people in Chang'an City use the coal balls as soon as possible, Brother Yuchi even worked tirelessly, leading people to escort the coal balls in person. On the way, the carriage overturned more than a dozen times, several times, and even his life was in danger , but he never complained... As for the idea of ​​giving coal balls to the poor people, it was also Brother Yuchi who came up with it. In order to get me to agree to this matter, he even insisted on not taking any shares in Lantian Coal Yard. That one is donated to the people..."

Du He briefly explained the situation.

Everyone was stunned.

It turned out that when Yuchi Baolin insisted on going to Lantian to dig coal, even at the expense of others' ridicule, it was for the benefit of the common people?

Some people who laughed at Duke Wu's mansion and Yuchi Baolin before were blushing a little at the moment.

Even Li Er was very puzzled at first, thinking that Yuchi Baolin was messing around.

After a while, Li Er said: "Jing De has a good son. Jing De is reckless and has a violent personality, but I look at Yuchi Baolin, but he is calm and a good boy..."

Du He suddenly said: "Your Majesty, I have the courage to ask Your Majesty to give Brother Yuchi some rewards. The rewards don't need to be too much, but it is to tell the world that those who do good deeds will not suffer!"

Li Er nodded in agreement: "It should be so, but what kind of reward should I give Yuchi Baolin."

Du He said in a timely manner: "Your Majesty, why don't you give Brother Yuchi a title, he is white now."

A white body is a white man, equivalent to ordinary people.

Chen Shuda hurriedly jumped out and said: "Your Majesty, that's not right. I think it's enough to give Yuchi Baolin other rewards... Yuchi Baolin was involved in the Tongzhou murder case. His Majesty has decreed that he cannot hold an official position within five years. You can confer a title."

Du He clenched his fists.

Why is there such an old boy everywhere?
He suddenly understood that Chen Shuda and Yu Chigong had never dealt with each other.

Du He stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, what Master Chen said is reasonable, but this title is not an official position, and he will not be an official in the court. It does not violate the edict, it is just an honor."

Li Er was a little embarrassed.

Speaking of it, this credit does not reach the level of being awarded a knighthood, but he is very clear about the Tongzhou murder case, which was wronged by Yuchi Baolin.

It is also reasonable to give a title.

But, will the courtiers agree?

As soon as Chen Shuda finished speaking, seven or eight people jumped out to object.

If you want to blame it, you can only blame Yu Chigong for offending too many people, and many people jumped out to oppose it.

Changsun Wuji originally wanted to object, but after looking at Du He, he still didn't speak.

At this moment, Du He poked Changsun Wuji's sleeve and whispered, "Master Changsun, it's your turn. At this time, you should say something, brother Yuchi is not easy!"

Changsun Wuji shook his head: "I will not speak for Yuchi Baolin!"

The corner of Du He's mouth smiled slightly: "My lord, the sheep."

"What kind of sheep?" Monk Changsun Wuji Zhang Er was puzzled.

Du He said: "It's just sheep, what else can there be?"

Changsun Wuji suddenly opened his mouth wide.

Du He was talking about stealing sheep.

That incident, Changsun Wuji was originally wronged, but it was too coincidental, he couldn't argue with it.

If he was stabbed out, don't care if it's true or not, someone will definitely attack him.

Changsun Wuji turned his head and saw Du He looking at him with a smile.

That's it!

He gritted his teeth and said loudly: "Your Majesty, I think that what the Marquis of Huyi County said is reasonable. There are very few people in and outside the court who are willing to benefit the people. Yuchi Baolin is young, but she has the world in her heart. Such a good deed should be rewarded, he is almost 19 years old, and there is nothing wrong with conferring a knighthood."

Ok?
When Changsun Wuji spoke, everyone was a little dumbfounded.

This old boy actually spoke for Du He?
