Zhenguan Crown Prince Li Chengqian

Chapter 96 The Unlucky King Jing

Chang'an Wannian County

"Master Li, how is the well drilling project and disaster relief in Wannian County going?" Liu Shuyi asked the county magistrate Qin Lili beside him.

"Um, Master Liu, you don't know. In such a disaster year, it's really hard to do a job. More than 100 wells and more than 40 miles of canals have been repaired."

Li Li complained to Liu Shuyi with a sad face.But Liu Shuyi felt that something was wrong when he heard it, and the food was not reduced, why did he fix it so little.

With doubts, Liu Shuyi decided to go to see what the porridge factory was talking about.

When we arrived at the porridge factory, a group of victims tremblingly lined up to receive porridge with broken bowls.There were also quite a few people sitting in twos and threes by the edge of the dilapidated shed, their eyes filled with emptiness.

"Is this porridge?" Liu Shuyi asked Qin Li loudly, holding up a bowl of thin porridge that could be used for people.

This is so nonsense, why did the prince offend so many people in front, didn't he just want to get more food for the victims?But this Li Li not only failed to complete the well-drilling project, but even withholding this little relief food is still human.

There are still many people who can't get the porridge like this, and they are watching eagerly from behind.Liu Shuyi, who was in a fit of anger, couldn't be so much, he seemed to know how the dog official in front of him explained the porridge.

Li Li saluted him calmly and replied: "Master, you don't know that many people are victims of disasters from other states and counties, and they are not under the jurisdiction of this county. But since they are here, we can't see them." It’s not that I’m starving to death, so I added a little more water.”

Bang, Liu Shuyi smashed the bowl in the water and the bucket of porridge to pieces.

He yelled and cursed loudly: "Fart, people from other states and counties are not citizens of Datang. You don't care what the hell is called. Ah, you still showed kindness by adding water to the porridge, right?

All the food provided by the imperial court was used there. The laws of the Tang Dynasty stipulate that once the chopsticks float in the porridge pot, don’t you know that people’s heads will fall to the ground?
Immediately, I will set up five more porridge factories for me. The porridge must be inserted with chopsticks so that it does not leak, and the cold rice balls must be eaten with your hands. "

But the Li county magistrate didn't care and said: "The small county has so much food for them, and there are still many people who are repairing canals and digging wells. If they are all given to these people, what will happen when the project is finished?" ah."

You, a small county magistrate, dare to ignore yourself, the prince's official, and the king's law.

"You are so worthless to the common people, aren't you afraid that this official will kill you with this bowl of gruel?"

Haha, after listening to Liu Shuyi's words, Li Li laughed so hard that he couldn't straighten up, as if he heard a big joke.

Li Li, who took a few breaths, pointed to Liu Shuyi and said, "Seeing that you are an official of the crown prince, the county gave you some face just now, and now that you are so ignorant of how to praise this official, I will talk to you." .

I see clearly, the ones standing in front of you are the descendants of the Tang clan, according to their seniority, they are the descendants of His Majesty's clan.Moreover, this official and King Jing are still close friends.How about it, take me out of the way. "

Li Li put his hands on his waist, and his annoying chin was raised.

Liu Shuyi: "Even Li Yuanjing will take you down here. General Qin will take him down for me."

"Do you dare?" Li Li waved his hand, and the servants behind him confronted Qin Huaiyu's soldiers.

Just when the two sides were about to make a move, Li Chengqian walked over from the crowd clapping his hands.

"What a son of the clan, he ignores political affairs and sells relief food. He listens to ditties every day, drinks flowers and wine, and keeps prostitutes.

Now he dares to confront the officers and soldiers.You want to rebel, Huaiyu hasn't taken them down yet. ".
Li Chengqian sat in the hall watching Changsun Chong's performance, even if Liu Shuyi didn't come today, he would still come.

The few princes who didn't get the face to attend the banquet last time still didn't pay the food.And this Li Li used Li Yuanjing's guise to bully Goodness everywhere.The reason why I came here in person was to beat Li Yuanjing hard while killing him.

"Hey, Uncle Six and Uncle Seven are here together. This really surprised me. Such a small county magistrate can actually alarm the two current princes.

Li Li, you really impress me.What kind of bird official is the county magistrate? There are not as many bastards in Weishui as you. "

Li Chengqian's words said that his two uncles looked ashen.But Li Li and them have been friends for many years and belong to the same clan, otherwise they would not have come to provoke Li Chengqian, the evil star.

"Da Lang, I heard that this kid provoked you, so I'm here with your seventh uncle to vent your anger on you," Li Yuanjing said, licking his face, and pulled Li Yuanchang next to him.

"Yeah, Dalang, this kid is too ignorant. In such a big disaster year, he doesn't pay attention to how to share your worries with His Majesty and you. He just adds chaos. He really should fight." Li Yuanchang quickly echoed.

Well, Li Chengqian smiled after hearing this, and said to Changsun Chong: "I didn't hear what the two princes said, I have to fight, what are you talking about with him there?"

After the grandson rushed, he waved his hand, and a duet sounded in the hall.

"The two imperial uncles are right. Such a dog official must be beaten. He dares to exchange the relief food issued by the court for silver. If he plays with women, is there any law for not beating him?"

Li Li's howling made Li Yuanjing's brain ache.

So he stepped forward and whispered to Li Chengqian: "Da Lang, how can he say he is also a clan member, and his father has also served as His Majesty's bodyguard. It's almost done. Let him make up the money and food later. If you continue to fight like this, you will die. .”

"Hey, Sixth Uncle, it's hard for me too. Your second brother is unwilling to eat for disaster relief.

I heard that it is your brother-in-law who is partnering with this bastard in the food business. Reselling food for disaster relief is no small matter.All the papers from the Ministry of Integrity have been sent to Ben Gong, look here. "

Li Yuanjing came down in a cold sweat, and quickly covered Li Chengqian's hand, not letting him take it out.

"My lord, don't you just want some food? As for checking your sixth uncle's status, don't bother your majesty.

Later, I will ask them to send all the food back, and then hand over my share, see if it works. "

Li Chengqian tilted his head and looked at Li Yuanjing with a pleading expression on his face, and said, "Uncle Six, don't you have no food? Besides, one hundred thousand dan is a lot."

Li Yuanjing bit his teeth and said: "Yes, don't worry, I will send it when I go back."

"Aren't you forced?"

"It's our duty as princes to share our worries for the country." Li Yuanjing's chest thumped loudly.

"Okay then, the other princes also troubled Uncle Liu to clear it up. The specifications are the same, [-] dan each."

This puts Li Yuanjing in a difficult situation. Originally, according to the imperial edict, it was enough for him to pay [-] dan, but now Li Chengqian kept his mouth open and asked him to find those princes. Isn't this killing him?
Seeing that Li Yuanjing was hesitating, Li Chengqian took out the memorial book in his sleeve and said, "Don't make things difficult for Uncle Six, I'd better leave it to His Majesty."

"Don't, don't, I'll go and do it right now, so what about this Li Li?"

Li Chengqian sneered: "Uncle Six, you can't chew if you are too greedy. According to the law of the Tang Dynasty, the chopsticks of the congee factory float up and the head falls to the ground. You can't help him."

Seeing that Li Yuanjing didn't speak, Li Chengqian said loudly to Li Yuanchang who was stupefied in the hall: "Uncle Qi, let Uncle Six bring your hundred thousand dan for you."

Ah, Li Chengqian fooled him with one word, and Li Yuanjing dragged him away before asking why.
