Manchu traitor, how can you let me be the emperor of the ages
Chapter 166 Li Qian's Public Opinion War!Inspiration from He Shen Yan Song!
Chapter 166 Li Qian's Public Opinion War!Inspiration from He Shen Yan Song!
Li Gan smiled softly, but Xi Shi was so excited that she almost buried her head in Li Gan's arms.
Just then, he pulled Li Gan's arm and kept covering his back and legs, for fear that the thin gauze would reveal the spring.
Li Gan embraced her with a funny face: "You still haven't raised your head to meet your husband?"
The eldest grandson Wugou was wiping his wet hair with a silk towel, when he heard this, he raised his head in astonishment.
what sir?
"Concubine..." Xi Shi's face was flushed, but she still turned her head with Li Qian's help.
Then he met the little dazed eyes of the eldest grandson Wugou.
A pair of confused eyes turned into two pairs of confused eyes.
"Sister eldest grandson?" Xi Shi couldn't help exclaiming, as if he was relieved, he hurriedly climbed down from Li Gan's arms and ran towards eldest grandson Wugou.
"Is my husband you? Elder sister, eldest grandson?" Xi Shi's big eyes sparkled, and she took the arm of eldest grandson Wugou.
"I..." It was the first time that Changsun Wugou was held by her arm under such circumstances, and his pretty face turned red for a moment.
"Your Majesty?" She kept winking at Li Gan, what's the matter between Mr. and Mrs.?
Li Gan stood up with a smile, and walked forward: "Of course it's the business of Mr. Shu. In the future, you can come and teach Xi Shi to read every day, so you will be her lady husband."
"I'm a concubine..." Changsun Wugou's red lips parted slightly, but he looked down at Xi Shi's expectant eyes, and finally nodded his head lightly, agreeing.
Xi Shi was very happy, took a step back hastily, and saluted decently: "The student has met Mr. Changsun."
Li Gan was startled when he heard the words, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly grabbed her slender waist: "Don't change your words in a hurry."
"Let's call you elder sister today, and I will call you sir and student next time."
"Next time?" Changsun Wugou and Xi Shi turned their heads to look at Li Qian at the same time, with great doubts in their big eyes.
Li Qian also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed his words with a dry smile: "Tomorrow, tomorrow."
Let’s come back to the drama between the female husband and the female student next time. It’s better to be the older sister and the younger sister today.
Although the two women failed to understand Li Qian's meaning, they called it the same today and tomorrow, so they followed His Majesty's will.
Li Gan pulled his eldest grandson Wugou again, and led them both back to the chair and sat down, the two girls sat on his lap, one on each side.
It wasn't until this time that the innocent Xi Shi realized, why did the elder sister of the eldest grandson also come here after taking a bath?
With a silk scarf in his left hand and a silk scarf in his right hand, Li Qian was very busy helping them wipe their hair.
Xin said that fortunately there are only two tonight, if there is another one, he doesn't have a third hand to wipe his hair.
"Your Majesty?" Xi Shi blushed, not knowing whether to ask or how to ask.
The eldest grandson Wugou blushed and lowered his head, but he didn't dare to look at Xi Shi anymore.
"Your eldest grandson sister will not leave today."
Li Gan said in a strange tone, "It's already September, and the weather is getting cold. She will stay here tonight and rest with us."
The eldest grandson Wugou sat on Li Gan's other leg, the red glow on his pretty face was about to fly to the base of his fair ear.
Xi Shi nodded ignorantly, it turned out that today was just a rest.
Maybe that's... okay?
"Your Majesty, this concubine will send two more quilts here." Xi Shi hurried down and was about to speak to the maid waiting outside the door.
The smile on Li Gan's face froze, and Changsun Wugou also burst out laughing.
Xi Shi turned around suspiciously, not knowing why.
"Go, go." Li Gan smiled and waved his hands.
Xi Shi said a few words through the door, and after a while, a court lady walked into the room carrying two other brocade quilts, put them on the bed, and then ran out like burning her buttocks.
His Majesty the Emperor would sleep with two concubines next night, this... this is too absurd...
No, it shouldn't be called a big quilt, after all, there are three quilts here.
Maybe...they are really innocent?
Naturally, Li Qian couldn't hear the voices of these little maids. He smiled and dried the hair of the two girls, and then went to bed with them and slept.
"It's fine for me to sleep on the outermost side." Seeing that they both had gone to bed, Li Gan smiled and blew out the red candle that was as thick as a forearm, and got on the bed.
The Qiushui Pavilion was pitch black, leaving only silence.
Xi Shi was sleeping on the innermost side of the bed. At this moment, she suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the outside, and some strange movements. She couldn't help calling out to her grandson Wugou curiously: "Sister Changsun, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?" Comfortable?"
"No……"
Changsun Wugou's voice was twitchy, as if it was squeezed out by clenching silver teeth.
There was a slight smile in Li Gan's voice: "Your eldest grandson is a little cold, why don't you come over and help her warm up?"
"Ah?" The naive Xi Shi actually believed it, moved her body, and was about to lean over.
In the darkness, Changsun Wugou seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't..."
It just stopped halfway through.
After a while, Li Gan's voice continued with a smile: "She's shy, I'm sorry to say, come here quickly."
"How can you keep her warm with two layers of quilts?"
Xi Shi was a little hesitant, but thinking that his grandson Wugou would still be his teacher, at this time, he naturally had to respect his teacher, so he vaguely agreed: "Oh~"
Then they moved over.
There is an idiom that is very appropriate and appropriate to use here, which is called sheep entering the tiger's mouth.
Of course, if you want to talk about it seriously, it's actually not like a sheep running into a tiger's mouth. After all, Li Gan is also a pure person.
That night, he didn't do anything, but simply slept.
I don't know if this is true or not, but anyway, he thinks it's very simple, um, very simple...
~~
When Li Gan was worried and worried about the situation in the disaster area, troubles happened between Xingyang and Bianzhou.
It's just that this mess...is a little different from what Li Qian imagined.
He and his lord purple brocade wear money hexagrams, just came back from the embankment, and at the moment they are rushing to the county government office in an ordinary black woolen sedan chair.
There are a lot of people on the street, most of them are poorly dressed and thin people, with a little sad look on their faces.
Sit in the sedan chair with adults, out of sight and out of mind for these people.
In fact, he himself is also bothered, so it is naturally impossible to visit these people and disaster victims again and ask for trouble.
As the sedan chair was walking, there was a sudden noise in front of it.
"What a hateful dog officer!"
"Hey! There are too many officials like Wang Shen in our work!"
"I really wish I could kill this dog officer..."
He Shen listened, suddenly excited, and hurriedly asked Liu Quan who was following outside the sedan chair: "Liu Quan, what is this place?"
Liu Quan, who had been working hard all the time, seemed a little flustered: "My lord, it's just a broken tea stand. There is a man who heard a play in Goulan and came here to make a fuss!"
"Wang Shen, Wang Shen..."
He Shen felt something was wrong when he heard it.
Not for anything else, just because he and his lord have secret accounts in various banks, and one of them is Wang Shen under the pseudonym Liu Quan.
Now when I hear this, I immediately become sensitive.
"Quick, go and listen to what they said!"
He Shen was almost impatient, could it be that such a hidden dark house had been inquired about?
Are these people so capable?Did you underestimate them before? ?
"Master, I'm going right now!"
Liu Quan also knew the priorities, trotted over with a few people, inquired about the news for a while, and ran back in a hurry.
"Master, it has been found out."
Liu Quan looked around, and whispered into the sedan chair: "This play is about a village bully surnamed Liu who bullies men and women and fishes the common people."
"A magistrate can't do anything to this person, just because he has a big backer in the court, that is the corrupt official Wang Shen!"
"This Wang Shen is more... even more..."
Liu Quan swallowed his saliva, considered his words, and said, "Wang Shen is worse than bully Liu..."
He Shen slapped his thigh angrily: "Hurry up and go back to the county office!"
This is clearly someone trying to discredit him and Shen!
Why is Wang Shen not Wang Shen?
These two words are put together, isn't it the Shen of him and Shen? ?
The low-key black wool sedan went all the way back to the county office.
The backyard of the county government of Jiyang County.
The courtyard wall is made of bluestone, and the tall black columns prop up the main hall.
"Check! You must check for me and find out!"
He Shen, who was dressed in purple brocade and spent money, sipped his tea, frowned and said firmly: "It must be investigated!"
The magistrate of Jiyang County below was dressed in a blue official robe, a little timid, but he still asked in a low voice: "My lord, what is the investigation?"
"Check both."
He Shen couldn't help raising his voice a bit: "Whether it's the messy drama or the food shortage on the embankment, we have to find out!"
"Who is behind this!"
It made He Baobao very angry to write him as a heinous and treacherous minister who was a kind and loyal minister.
In this case, he naturally refused.
"My lord, I will obey your orders!"
The county magistrate bowed his body and said with a bitter face: "It's just that this drama must have come from outside the county. This county can ban it, but if you want to investigate it carefully, I'm afraid...you have more energy than you want."
"And my lord, why don't we ask people from the other counties to cooperate?"
The words have been made very clear, how can I, an official in Jiyang County, find out about someone else's territory?
He Shen also nodded, and the expression on his fat face was not very good-looking: "I will write a document and send it to the counties of Guancheng and Zhongmou, let them investigate together! Find out who is the person with ulterior motives, and discredit this official!"
This drama seemed to come out of nowhere, and it quickly became popular in Jiyang County, and there must be someone behind it.
Could it be those big households?
And about Wang Shen, how did the writer know about it.
Just when He Shen speculated about these people with the greatest malice, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.
"My lord, my lord the county."
Then came a little official in soap clothes, bowed and said: "Master Zheng Chen, Mr. Zhou Ling Zhou Yuanwai, Mr. Gao Shouru Gao..."
The little official reported a series of names one after another, and finally said: "These masters have come to see you and your lord."
He Shen was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, please come in."
The big families in Xingyang and Bianzhou are naturally not all the people who have been fooled by lard.
Some people are coveting the millions of acres of fertile land that have been created out of thin air, but there are also some people who can see the situation clearly. These people either feel that they cannot compete with He Shen, Yan Song and others, or for them, there are some things that are more valuable than land. more valuable...
Therefore, this time there are still many big households who support Heshen and stand firmly on his side.
"Mr. Zheng, Mr. Gao... are all rare visitors!" Although He Shen was thinking about opera, he still smiled and invited these rich country gentry to sit down.
"My lord, have you heard that play?"
Gao Shouru is an old man in his sixties or seventies, with a big frame, wearing a fiery red pine brocade robe, and he hurriedly started asking questions when he came up.
"This one……"
He Shen didn't expect to be asked such an embarrassing thing when he came up: "This... I know a thing or two..."
"My lord, we didn't expect such a play to be rehearsed."
Seeing his embarrassment, Zheng Chen hurriedly took up the topic and said, "I hope Mr. He can ignore this matter and continue to cooperate with Yan Xiang sincerely."
"Yan Xiang?"
He Shen's chubby hand holding the teacup suddenly froze, and he raised his neck stiffly: "What Yan Xiang? What's going on?"
"This..." A group of wealthy gentry were also stunned.
Do you still not know?
Everyone turned their heads and looked at Zheng Chen who was sitting in the first place, with a bit of complaint in their eyes.
Tell you to come here in a hurry, the co-authors and adults don't know about it!
Zheng Chen also had a bit of embarrassment on his face, and forced a smile and said: "With the wisdom of Mr. He, I don't know now, but I will know sooner or later."
He looked to the side again: "Old Gao, didn't you bring the script? Quickly show it to Mr. He."
"Okay." Gao Shouru was unambiguous, and directly took out a stack of papers from his sleeve and handed it to He Shen.
He Shen took it, and looked through it expressionlessly, the veins on his forehead were bulging.
What is the corrupt official Wang Shen who does all kinds of evil, what is the strict prime minister who pleads for the people and acts with integrity...
Prime Minister Yan...
He Shen's teeth were itchy, seeing these three words, how could he not think of who this is?
Except for that wicked old bastard Yan Song, no one would dare to do such a thing!
"Did this drama come from the North Shore?" He Shen got angry and slapped the stack of drama on the table.
Zheng Chen hastily explained: "My lord, there may be some misunderstanding about this matter."
Other wealthy gentry also tried to persuade: "Yes, my lord, now that foreign enemies are at hand, we should absolutely stop fighting among ourselves."
"Master He, you and Prime Minister Yan are both people who sincerely do things for the people, and are both upright officials. In fact, there is no need to care about these false names."
"That's right, my lord, if we delay the repair of the embankment, it will be troublesome. Let's deal with the matter of repairing the embankment and food first..."
These big households who support Heshen are worried, what if Heshen and Yan Song get into a fight and delay the embankment repair?
Didn't their previous investments all go in vain?
He Shen naturally understood the concerns of these people, and he smiled casually: "Everyone, don't worry, I am naturally not a small-bellied person like Yan Song, I can clearly distinguish the priorities!"
Many squires breathed a sigh of relief.
But He Shen immediately said: "But I can't always watch Yan Song discredit me like this?"
Zheng Chen was the first to understand, and hurriedly patted his chest to reassure: "Don't worry, my lord, this drama will not be sung in the south bank in the future!"
The other squires also understood one after another, and hastily made various guarantees that they would never let these non-existent things tarnish the reputation of their lord.
But they can't control the North Shore.
After saying this, the rest of the gentry changed their tone and talked about the business of repairing the embankment.
"Things are not going well these days!"
Zhou Ling shook his head and said with emotion: "First, Lao Wantou was almost persuaded by those people. In the past few days, they have been yelling, saying that their own food is also in short supply, and they told the big guys not to borrow food anymore..."
Lao Wantou refers to the squire Wantong, who is an extremely important person in the process of building embankments.
The stones used to build the embankment were all chiseled by peasants from Mount Zhou, and this Mount Zhou...is the boundary of Wan Tong's family.
"That's right, it's a good thing we discovered it early and didn't let those grandchildren succeed!"
Gao Shouru said angrily: "You said that after the levee is repaired, it will benefit all generations in the future?"
"The thieves who came out of these bastards insist on jumping up and down, doing bad things everywhere, it's really a puddle of rat shit!"
He Shen laughed twice, and then said, "It's okay."
"As long as we guard all directions, these people will not find a chance!"
"I have written down the names of those who don't borrow food. When the embankment is completed in the future, their names will still be engraved on the embankment."
Many big squires were stunned, what does this mean.
Aren't you and your lord the number one benevolent person in the world?
He Shen smiled slightly: "It's just that there are a few more words 'those who have borrowed food and then repented'."
The big households were startled, and then burst into laughter, and the hall was filled with joy for a while.
Zheng Chen couldn't help but gave a thumbs up with a smile, and said, "Master He, tall, it's too high!"
He Shen looked at the squires with a smile: "When the time comes, there will be fewer names borrowing grain on the embankment, but there will be so many people who repent. Wouldn't it be more benevolent?"
When everyone heard it, it seemed that this was the case.
Some things rely on comparison.
Compared with those who betrayed their promises and repented before the battle, wouldn't it appear that they, who have been from the beginning to the end, are more reliable? ?
The squires rejoiced.
But Zheng Chen was a bit worried: "My lord, will there be insufficient food in this way?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent again, and then the discussion started again in the back hall as if a pot had exploded.
"He and my lord, at least the grain will be transported in the spring of next year, and the canal will be thawed. If those people retreat, can we still support it with our grain?"
"Yes, my lord, I think many people have been moved by what they said. It seems that this posture means that they will no longer borrow food..."
The premise of engraving on the embankment is that the embankment can be repaired.
But if even the levee cannot be repaired, then all these are in vain.
If Li Qian was here, he would definitely feel that the situation was dangerous.
The borrowed food that I worked with the fat man is actually similar to the joint-stock company in his previous life.
And the many large squires who lent grain are equivalent to individual small shareholders.
It’s okay to sell one or two stocks out, but the most fearful thing is that many people will sell out and incite others to sell out.
If this causes panic, it is likely to be like an avalanche, causing all shareholders to throw out, and it will be out of control in the end!
Shareholders are also worried that selling may cause the stock price to plummet, so they sell very carefully.
But today's big borrowers don't have such scruples, the food has always been in their own hands, and if one says not to borrow, they will not have any follow-up losses at all!
At most, it is just the sunk cost that has already been invested, but if you have the idea of withdrawing, you will only withdraw the investment as soon as possible. The more you hesitate, the more you will lose.
He Shen and a group of big households may not understand the intricacies of this, but they also understand a simple truth.
If there are rumors of not borrowing food in the market for a while, even if those people originally wanted to continue to borrow money, they would have to consider it.
He Shen frowned and thought for a moment. In any case, whether to borrow food or not is his own business. He can't and has no reason to force it.
"Don't panic, everyone."
He first calmed down the emotions of everyone present. These are the basic disks and must not be lost. If they all run away, then the levee will really be impossible to repair.
"Even if there's not enough food, at worst it's just a stoppage. At worst, we'll have to wait for the imperial court's grain to arrive next year before repairing it."
"It is impossible not to repair the levee!"
When many squires heard this, they realized the problem.
At worst, it's only half a year's delay. It seems that there is really no need to panic.
He Shen looked at their expressions, and smiled again: "If someone says that they don't want to borrow money anymore, just agree to it quickly, and don't need to persuade them any more."
"There are too many people looking for officials to borrow food, how many of them are missing?"
Many squires recalled the enthusiastic registration that day, so many people wanted to borrow food, and it was hard for them to get the quota, so they felt relieved.
In fact, what they said just now also meant to test He Shen's attitude.
After regaining consciousness at this moment, they persuaded He Shen one by one: "Master He, in fact, it is almost the same now."
"That's right, my lord, they will leave as soon as they withdraw. The food borrowed by us people is enough, and there is no need to add others!"
"Master He, this statement is very true. If Sir He is afraid of delaying the construction period, at worst, let's add a little more..."
Knowing what they were thinking, He Shen smiled and said, "No matter what, I appreciate your kindness."
Although what he said sounded good, only he knew in his heart that he probably couldn't borrow any food now.
Although there were many people who begged him and the adults to borrow food, but now it is different from the past.
Those big households who couldn't get any cheap money and suffered from pink eye still accounted for the majority. With their joint clamor, there may not be many people who are willing to borrow food anymore.
If the grain cannot be borrowed, then even if the imperial court's grain comes, it may not be able to repair the embankment...
Regarding this embankment, Kazu-sama has other ideas.
It's just that the worries in my heart cannot be explained to outsiders.
After the big households exchanged pleasantries for a while, they left one after another, and only Zheng Chen stayed here.
"It's a good way to be with adults."
Zheng Chen chuckled: "As long as you don't stop them, those who originally wanted to quit and don't borrow food, I'm afraid they will hesitate again."
He Shen shook his head nonchalantly: "It's just a small trick. If you don't want to borrow money, you will return it sooner or later."
"good."
Zheng Chen nodded: "But those people who are not on the stage can only do such small things to hinder you after all."
He looked at He Shen with a smile: "Master He and Prime Minister Yan are surrounded by holy relatives, those people's usual tricks will not work all of a sudden."
"Look, these people are definitely no match for us."
He Shen understood the meaning of his words.
Naturally, these big households have unique skills in rectifying local officials.
Generally speaking, local officials are appointed every three years, and after three years of service, they will be evaluated by the Ministry of Officials and the imperial court.
But these days, there are not many officials who can work steadily for three years.
Either there is a problem above, or there is a problem below.
And what the country gentry are best at is to find problems under people.
If a magistrate who doesn't know how to cooperate and fights against each other comes, the big family will naturally have a way to make him go away.
Local officials have just arrived in office and are not familiar with local government affairs, so it is easy to make various mistakes.
And the big households can grasp this point, set a trap for the magistrate, and lead him to make a big mistake.
At that time, even if their people in the court do not take action, the officials who made mistakes will be transferred away at least, or they will be demoted directly.
And big households can naturally wait until the next magistrate comes to take office, and then slowly adjust...
Only a very small number of magistrates with strong backgrounds or experienced experience can avoid this catastrophe.
But in the process of getting along, it is still indispensable to be angry with them.
If you think about it, you will know that officials like Lian Heshen and Yan Song who are in charge of the court, these rampant big families dare to use eye drops, let alone the local officials below?
If some ordinary imperial envoy came here this time, it would definitely not be able to withstand the toss of the big family in the end.
But this time, one of the two people who came here is the prime minister, and the other is in charge of the official department. They are people who can be the backstage of others.
Now these two have only His Majesty the Emperor on their heads. If they want to get rid of them, the only way is for the Emperor to change his mind.
Just, is this really possible?
"His Majesty……"
He Shen was still a bit worried at first, but after thinking about it, he suddenly shook his head and laughed: "That's right, with His Majesty in Beijing to take care of you, I think it will be all right."
Zheng Chen just said casually at the beginning, showing respect, but he didn't expect He Shen to look relieved, and couldn't help but become more curious.
"And my lord, there are many people under those people who have friendship in the court, and some even have friendship with many military officers."
"Could it be possible that His Majesty can really deal with those people?"
"Your Majesty naturally has a solution."
He Shen didn't want to talk more about this with him, so he changed the subject with a smile: "Is there anyone here in Nan'an who can write dramas? Can Mr. Zheng do a search and please come here?"
Zheng Chen frowned, and suddenly had some bad associations in his mind: "My lord, what are you going to do?"
He Shen said with a smile: "He, Yan Song, can write dramas and arrange dramas. Naturally, I can let others write dramas and arrange him."
"This..." Zheng Chen looked at him dry-mouthed.
He Shen spoke with joy, as if he had been conceiving a draft in his heart since the conversation just now.
"Just write about a salt merchant named Shan Gao!"
The name of the salt merchant is Shan Gao... Isn't this riding horse Yan Song?
Zheng Chen's forehead twitched, only feeling a little raw.
He Shen went on to say with high spirits: "This man has recognized a high-ranking official named Yan Gaoshan as his adoptive father, so he committed crimes, bullied the market, forced the people to buy his expensive salt, and even dared to beat the officials of the transshipment department. Run amok forever!"
"Yan Gaoshan..." Zheng Chen's eyes darkened.
The more He Shen said, the happier he became: "But there is justice in the hearts of the people in the world. There is a young official named Shen He in the Salt Transportation Department. He is quite handsome, with bright eyes and sparse eyebrows. Shang Shangao's evil deeds, fighting wits and courage with him..."
He and the adults spat and talked all over the place, talking a lot.
Zheng Chen's eyes straightened when he heard it, and he thought that Yan Xiang just rehearsed a play, and you are always going to make a long series with this posture?
"Defeating officials of the strict party one by one, Shen He's officials became bigger and bigger, and finally the corrupt official Yan Gaoshan had to give in..."
He Shen also added the elements of fighting monsters and upgrading to make the story more exciting.
It's just that after he finished talking about his masterpiece, Zheng Chen's eyes were straightened, apparently he didn't listen to anything.
He Shen secretly sighed in his heart, but he still smiled and said: "Old Zheng has all eyes and hands, so the matter of finding people and writing the script will get rid of you."
Zheng Chen shivered, and quickly came back to his senses: "Don't worry, Mr. He, I will find you as soon as possible."
"it is good."
He Shen slapped his thigh: "It's best to write it in one day, rehearse it in another day, and sing it everywhere in another day!"
Zheng Chen said in his heart, why don't you kill me?
"I will do my best." He replied with a dry smile.
Of course, the strength of the Zheng family is not built on. Their own family has many sour talents who write operas and opera troupes who sing operas. Now that He Shen has a request, it is natural to speed up the production.
Under the management of a group of veterans and experienced hands, the theater troupe quickly made a schedule and rushed to the counties in the north and south.
Moreover, He Shen also supported these troupes with his own money, so that they don't have to go to Goulan Washe to collect tickets for making money, but go to perform in crowded places.
For example, on the construction site of a dam, in a busy city with many people...
It has to be said that the open and bright He adults are indeed better than Yan Song in some aspects, and the troupe spread the news even faster, and the people on both sides of the Yellow River soon knew about the play.
And because of He Shen's generosity, the spread of this play is even wider than that of Yan Song, and it is welcomed by many people.
For a time, the names of Shan Gao, a salt merchant, and Yan Gaoshan, a treacherous official, were notorious.
Yan Song, who heard the news, naturally scolded He Shen for being treacherous and shameless, and soon banned this large-scale series on the North Shore.
But the news could not be stopped, and it was still spreading.
Capital City, Ziwei Hall.
In the political affairs hall, Li Qian was greatly inspired when he watched the report about what He Shen and Yan Song did.
In recent days, the rumors in Beijing have intensified and become very loud.
Li Qian couldn't help but let his subordinates arrest many of these rumormongers, but they were all dragged up by the Ministry of Criminal Justice with such a bad excuse as "you dare not listen to the king's rumors".
No matter what, there is no trial.
But seeing Yan Song and He Shen's methods today made Li Gan's eyes brighten, and he was suddenly inspired.
They can use public opinion to discredit him as the emperor, so can't Li Gan use public opinion?
Suddenly, Li Gan thought of the great weapon of newspapers.
(End of this chapter)
Li Gan smiled softly, but Xi Shi was so excited that she almost buried her head in Li Gan's arms.
Just then, he pulled Li Gan's arm and kept covering his back and legs, for fear that the thin gauze would reveal the spring.
Li Gan embraced her with a funny face: "You still haven't raised your head to meet your husband?"
The eldest grandson Wugou was wiping his wet hair with a silk towel, when he heard this, he raised his head in astonishment.
what sir?
"Concubine..." Xi Shi's face was flushed, but she still turned her head with Li Qian's help.
Then he met the little dazed eyes of the eldest grandson Wugou.
A pair of confused eyes turned into two pairs of confused eyes.
"Sister eldest grandson?" Xi Shi couldn't help exclaiming, as if he was relieved, he hurriedly climbed down from Li Gan's arms and ran towards eldest grandson Wugou.
"Is my husband you? Elder sister, eldest grandson?" Xi Shi's big eyes sparkled, and she took the arm of eldest grandson Wugou.
"I..." It was the first time that Changsun Wugou was held by her arm under such circumstances, and his pretty face turned red for a moment.
"Your Majesty?" She kept winking at Li Gan, what's the matter between Mr. and Mrs.?
Li Gan stood up with a smile, and walked forward: "Of course it's the business of Mr. Shu. In the future, you can come and teach Xi Shi to read every day, so you will be her lady husband."
"I'm a concubine..." Changsun Wugou's red lips parted slightly, but he looked down at Xi Shi's expectant eyes, and finally nodded his head lightly, agreeing.
Xi Shi was very happy, took a step back hastily, and saluted decently: "The student has met Mr. Changsun."
Li Gan was startled when he heard the words, as if he had thought of something, he hurriedly grabbed her slender waist: "Don't change your words in a hurry."
"Let's call you elder sister today, and I will call you sir and student next time."
"Next time?" Changsun Wugou and Xi Shi turned their heads to look at Li Qian at the same time, with great doubts in their big eyes.
Li Qian also realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly changed his words with a dry smile: "Tomorrow, tomorrow."
Let’s come back to the drama between the female husband and the female student next time. It’s better to be the older sister and the younger sister today.
Although the two women failed to understand Li Qian's meaning, they called it the same today and tomorrow, so they followed His Majesty's will.
Li Gan pulled his eldest grandson Wugou again, and led them both back to the chair and sat down, the two girls sat on his lap, one on each side.
It wasn't until this time that the innocent Xi Shi realized, why did the elder sister of the eldest grandson also come here after taking a bath?
With a silk scarf in his left hand and a silk scarf in his right hand, Li Qian was very busy helping them wipe their hair.
Xin said that fortunately there are only two tonight, if there is another one, he doesn't have a third hand to wipe his hair.
"Your Majesty?" Xi Shi blushed, not knowing whether to ask or how to ask.
The eldest grandson Wugou blushed and lowered his head, but he didn't dare to look at Xi Shi anymore.
"Your eldest grandson sister will not leave today."
Li Gan said in a strange tone, "It's already September, and the weather is getting cold. She will stay here tonight and rest with us."
The eldest grandson Wugou sat on Li Gan's other leg, the red glow on his pretty face was about to fly to the base of his fair ear.
Xi Shi nodded ignorantly, it turned out that today was just a rest.
Maybe that's... okay?
"Your Majesty, this concubine will send two more quilts here." Xi Shi hurried down and was about to speak to the maid waiting outside the door.
The smile on Li Gan's face froze, and Changsun Wugou also burst out laughing.
Xi Shi turned around suspiciously, not knowing why.
"Go, go." Li Gan smiled and waved his hands.
Xi Shi said a few words through the door, and after a while, a court lady walked into the room carrying two other brocade quilts, put them on the bed, and then ran out like burning her buttocks.
His Majesty the Emperor would sleep with two concubines next night, this... this is too absurd...
No, it shouldn't be called a big quilt, after all, there are three quilts here.
Maybe...they are really innocent?
Naturally, Li Qian couldn't hear the voices of these little maids. He smiled and dried the hair of the two girls, and then went to bed with them and slept.
"It's fine for me to sleep on the outermost side." Seeing that they both had gone to bed, Li Gan smiled and blew out the red candle that was as thick as a forearm, and got on the bed.
The Qiushui Pavilion was pitch black, leaving only silence.
Xi Shi was sleeping on the innermost side of the bed. At this moment, she suddenly heard a rustling sound coming from the outside, and some strange movements. She couldn't help calling out to her grandson Wugou curiously: "Sister Changsun, what's wrong with you? What's wrong?" Comfortable?"
"No……"
Changsun Wugou's voice was twitchy, as if it was squeezed out by clenching silver teeth.
There was a slight smile in Li Gan's voice: "Your eldest grandson is a little cold, why don't you come over and help her warm up?"
"Ah?" The naive Xi Shi actually believed it, moved her body, and was about to lean over.
In the darkness, Changsun Wugou seemed to be taken aback, and hurriedly explained: "I didn't..."
It just stopped halfway through.
After a while, Li Gan's voice continued with a smile: "She's shy, I'm sorry to say, come here quickly."
"How can you keep her warm with two layers of quilts?"
Xi Shi was a little hesitant, but thinking that his grandson Wugou would still be his teacher, at this time, he naturally had to respect his teacher, so he vaguely agreed: "Oh~"
Then they moved over.
There is an idiom that is very appropriate and appropriate to use here, which is called sheep entering the tiger's mouth.
Of course, if you want to talk about it seriously, it's actually not like a sheep running into a tiger's mouth. After all, Li Gan is also a pure person.
That night, he didn't do anything, but simply slept.
I don't know if this is true or not, but anyway, he thinks it's very simple, um, very simple...
~~
When Li Gan was worried and worried about the situation in the disaster area, troubles happened between Xingyang and Bianzhou.
It's just that this mess...is a little different from what Li Qian imagined.
He and his lord purple brocade wear money hexagrams, just came back from the embankment, and at the moment they are rushing to the county government office in an ordinary black woolen sedan chair.
There are a lot of people on the street, most of them are poorly dressed and thin people, with a little sad look on their faces.
Sit in the sedan chair with adults, out of sight and out of mind for these people.
In fact, he himself is also bothered, so it is naturally impossible to visit these people and disaster victims again and ask for trouble.
As the sedan chair was walking, there was a sudden noise in front of it.
"What a hateful dog officer!"
"Hey! There are too many officials like Wang Shen in our work!"
"I really wish I could kill this dog officer..."
He Shen listened, suddenly excited, and hurriedly asked Liu Quan who was following outside the sedan chair: "Liu Quan, what is this place?"
Liu Quan, who had been working hard all the time, seemed a little flustered: "My lord, it's just a broken tea stand. There is a man who heard a play in Goulan and came here to make a fuss!"
"Wang Shen, Wang Shen..."
He Shen felt something was wrong when he heard it.
Not for anything else, just because he and his lord have secret accounts in various banks, and one of them is Wang Shen under the pseudonym Liu Quan.
Now when I hear this, I immediately become sensitive.
"Quick, go and listen to what they said!"
He Shen was almost impatient, could it be that such a hidden dark house had been inquired about?
Are these people so capable?Did you underestimate them before? ?
"Master, I'm going right now!"
Liu Quan also knew the priorities, trotted over with a few people, inquired about the news for a while, and ran back in a hurry.
"Master, it has been found out."
Liu Quan looked around, and whispered into the sedan chair: "This play is about a village bully surnamed Liu who bullies men and women and fishes the common people."
"A magistrate can't do anything to this person, just because he has a big backer in the court, that is the corrupt official Wang Shen!"
"This Wang Shen is more... even more..."
Liu Quan swallowed his saliva, considered his words, and said, "Wang Shen is worse than bully Liu..."
He Shen slapped his thigh angrily: "Hurry up and go back to the county office!"
This is clearly someone trying to discredit him and Shen!
Why is Wang Shen not Wang Shen?
These two words are put together, isn't it the Shen of him and Shen? ?
The low-key black wool sedan went all the way back to the county office.
The backyard of the county government of Jiyang County.
The courtyard wall is made of bluestone, and the tall black columns prop up the main hall.
"Check! You must check for me and find out!"
He Shen, who was dressed in purple brocade and spent money, sipped his tea, frowned and said firmly: "It must be investigated!"
The magistrate of Jiyang County below was dressed in a blue official robe, a little timid, but he still asked in a low voice: "My lord, what is the investigation?"
"Check both."
He Shen couldn't help raising his voice a bit: "Whether it's the messy drama or the food shortage on the embankment, we have to find out!"
"Who is behind this!"
It made He Baobao very angry to write him as a heinous and treacherous minister who was a kind and loyal minister.
In this case, he naturally refused.
"My lord, I will obey your orders!"
The county magistrate bowed his body and said with a bitter face: "It's just that this drama must have come from outside the county. This county can ban it, but if you want to investigate it carefully, I'm afraid...you have more energy than you want."
"And my lord, why don't we ask people from the other counties to cooperate?"
The words have been made very clear, how can I, an official in Jiyang County, find out about someone else's territory?
He Shen also nodded, and the expression on his fat face was not very good-looking: "I will write a document and send it to the counties of Guancheng and Zhongmou, let them investigate together! Find out who is the person with ulterior motives, and discredit this official!"
This drama seemed to come out of nowhere, and it quickly became popular in Jiyang County, and there must be someone behind it.
Could it be those big households?
And about Wang Shen, how did the writer know about it.
Just when He Shen speculated about these people with the greatest malice, there was a sudden sound of footsteps outside.
"My lord, my lord the county."
Then came a little official in soap clothes, bowed and said: "Master Zheng Chen, Mr. Zhou Ling Zhou Yuanwai, Mr. Gao Shouru Gao..."
The little official reported a series of names one after another, and finally said: "These masters have come to see you and your lord."
He Shen was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay, please come in."
The big families in Xingyang and Bianzhou are naturally not all the people who have been fooled by lard.
Some people are coveting the millions of acres of fertile land that have been created out of thin air, but there are also some people who can see the situation clearly. These people either feel that they cannot compete with He Shen, Yan Song and others, or for them, there are some things that are more valuable than land. more valuable...
Therefore, this time there are still many big households who support Heshen and stand firmly on his side.
"Mr. Zheng, Mr. Gao... are all rare visitors!" Although He Shen was thinking about opera, he still smiled and invited these rich country gentry to sit down.
"My lord, have you heard that play?"
Gao Shouru is an old man in his sixties or seventies, with a big frame, wearing a fiery red pine brocade robe, and he hurriedly started asking questions when he came up.
"This one……"
He Shen didn't expect to be asked such an embarrassing thing when he came up: "This... I know a thing or two..."
"My lord, we didn't expect such a play to be rehearsed."
Seeing his embarrassment, Zheng Chen hurriedly took up the topic and said, "I hope Mr. He can ignore this matter and continue to cooperate with Yan Xiang sincerely."
"Yan Xiang?"
He Shen's chubby hand holding the teacup suddenly froze, and he raised his neck stiffly: "What Yan Xiang? What's going on?"
"This..." A group of wealthy gentry were also stunned.
Do you still not know?
Everyone turned their heads and looked at Zheng Chen who was sitting in the first place, with a bit of complaint in their eyes.
Tell you to come here in a hurry, the co-authors and adults don't know about it!
Zheng Chen also had a bit of embarrassment on his face, and forced a smile and said: "With the wisdom of Mr. He, I don't know now, but I will know sooner or later."
He looked to the side again: "Old Gao, didn't you bring the script? Quickly show it to Mr. He."
"Okay." Gao Shouru was unambiguous, and directly took out a stack of papers from his sleeve and handed it to He Shen.
He Shen took it, and looked through it expressionlessly, the veins on his forehead were bulging.
What is the corrupt official Wang Shen who does all kinds of evil, what is the strict prime minister who pleads for the people and acts with integrity...
Prime Minister Yan...
He Shen's teeth were itchy, seeing these three words, how could he not think of who this is?
Except for that wicked old bastard Yan Song, no one would dare to do such a thing!
"Did this drama come from the North Shore?" He Shen got angry and slapped the stack of drama on the table.
Zheng Chen hastily explained: "My lord, there may be some misunderstanding about this matter."
Other wealthy gentry also tried to persuade: "Yes, my lord, now that foreign enemies are at hand, we should absolutely stop fighting among ourselves."
"Master He, you and Prime Minister Yan are both people who sincerely do things for the people, and are both upright officials. In fact, there is no need to care about these false names."
"That's right, my lord, if we delay the repair of the embankment, it will be troublesome. Let's deal with the matter of repairing the embankment and food first..."
These big households who support Heshen are worried, what if Heshen and Yan Song get into a fight and delay the embankment repair?
Didn't their previous investments all go in vain?
He Shen naturally understood the concerns of these people, and he smiled casually: "Everyone, don't worry, I am naturally not a small-bellied person like Yan Song, I can clearly distinguish the priorities!"
Many squires breathed a sigh of relief.
But He Shen immediately said: "But I can't always watch Yan Song discredit me like this?"
Zheng Chen was the first to understand, and hurriedly patted his chest to reassure: "Don't worry, my lord, this drama will not be sung in the south bank in the future!"
The other squires also understood one after another, and hastily made various guarantees that they would never let these non-existent things tarnish the reputation of their lord.
But they can't control the North Shore.
After saying this, the rest of the gentry changed their tone and talked about the business of repairing the embankment.
"Things are not going well these days!"
Zhou Ling shook his head and said with emotion: "First, Lao Wantou was almost persuaded by those people. In the past few days, they have been yelling, saying that their own food is also in short supply, and they told the big guys not to borrow food anymore..."
Lao Wantou refers to the squire Wantong, who is an extremely important person in the process of building embankments.
The stones used to build the embankment were all chiseled by peasants from Mount Zhou, and this Mount Zhou...is the boundary of Wan Tong's family.
"That's right, it's a good thing we discovered it early and didn't let those grandchildren succeed!"
Gao Shouru said angrily: "You said that after the levee is repaired, it will benefit all generations in the future?"
"The thieves who came out of these bastards insist on jumping up and down, doing bad things everywhere, it's really a puddle of rat shit!"
He Shen laughed twice, and then said, "It's okay."
"As long as we guard all directions, these people will not find a chance!"
"I have written down the names of those who don't borrow food. When the embankment is completed in the future, their names will still be engraved on the embankment."
Many big squires were stunned, what does this mean.
Aren't you and your lord the number one benevolent person in the world?
He Shen smiled slightly: "It's just that there are a few more words 'those who have borrowed food and then repented'."
The big households were startled, and then burst into laughter, and the hall was filled with joy for a while.
Zheng Chen couldn't help but gave a thumbs up with a smile, and said, "Master He, tall, it's too high!"
He Shen looked at the squires with a smile: "When the time comes, there will be fewer names borrowing grain on the embankment, but there will be so many people who repent. Wouldn't it be more benevolent?"
When everyone heard it, it seemed that this was the case.
Some things rely on comparison.
Compared with those who betrayed their promises and repented before the battle, wouldn't it appear that they, who have been from the beginning to the end, are more reliable? ?
The squires rejoiced.
But Zheng Chen was a bit worried: "My lord, will there be insufficient food in this way?"
As soon as these words came out, everyone fell silent again, and then the discussion started again in the back hall as if a pot had exploded.
"He and my lord, at least the grain will be transported in the spring of next year, and the canal will be thawed. If those people retreat, can we still support it with our grain?"
"Yes, my lord, I think many people have been moved by what they said. It seems that this posture means that they will no longer borrow food..."
The premise of engraving on the embankment is that the embankment can be repaired.
But if even the levee cannot be repaired, then all these are in vain.
If Li Qian was here, he would definitely feel that the situation was dangerous.
The borrowed food that I worked with the fat man is actually similar to the joint-stock company in his previous life.
And the many large squires who lent grain are equivalent to individual small shareholders.
It’s okay to sell one or two stocks out, but the most fearful thing is that many people will sell out and incite others to sell out.
If this causes panic, it is likely to be like an avalanche, causing all shareholders to throw out, and it will be out of control in the end!
Shareholders are also worried that selling may cause the stock price to plummet, so they sell very carefully.
But today's big borrowers don't have such scruples, the food has always been in their own hands, and if one says not to borrow, they will not have any follow-up losses at all!
At most, it is just the sunk cost that has already been invested, but if you have the idea of withdrawing, you will only withdraw the investment as soon as possible. The more you hesitate, the more you will lose.
He Shen and a group of big households may not understand the intricacies of this, but they also understand a simple truth.
If there are rumors of not borrowing food in the market for a while, even if those people originally wanted to continue to borrow money, they would have to consider it.
He Shen frowned and thought for a moment. In any case, whether to borrow food or not is his own business. He can't and has no reason to force it.
"Don't panic, everyone."
He first calmed down the emotions of everyone present. These are the basic disks and must not be lost. If they all run away, then the levee will really be impossible to repair.
"Even if there's not enough food, at worst it's just a stoppage. At worst, we'll have to wait for the imperial court's grain to arrive next year before repairing it."
"It is impossible not to repair the levee!"
When many squires heard this, they realized the problem.
At worst, it's only half a year's delay. It seems that there is really no need to panic.
He Shen looked at their expressions, and smiled again: "If someone says that they don't want to borrow money anymore, just agree to it quickly, and don't need to persuade them any more."
"There are too many people looking for officials to borrow food, how many of them are missing?"
Many squires recalled the enthusiastic registration that day, so many people wanted to borrow food, and it was hard for them to get the quota, so they felt relieved.
In fact, what they said just now also meant to test He Shen's attitude.
After regaining consciousness at this moment, they persuaded He Shen one by one: "Master He, in fact, it is almost the same now."
"That's right, my lord, they will leave as soon as they withdraw. The food borrowed by us people is enough, and there is no need to add others!"
"Master He, this statement is very true. If Sir He is afraid of delaying the construction period, at worst, let's add a little more..."
Knowing what they were thinking, He Shen smiled and said, "No matter what, I appreciate your kindness."
Although what he said sounded good, only he knew in his heart that he probably couldn't borrow any food now.
Although there were many people who begged him and the adults to borrow food, but now it is different from the past.
Those big households who couldn't get any cheap money and suffered from pink eye still accounted for the majority. With their joint clamor, there may not be many people who are willing to borrow food anymore.
If the grain cannot be borrowed, then even if the imperial court's grain comes, it may not be able to repair the embankment...
Regarding this embankment, Kazu-sama has other ideas.
It's just that the worries in my heart cannot be explained to outsiders.
After the big households exchanged pleasantries for a while, they left one after another, and only Zheng Chen stayed here.
"It's a good way to be with adults."
Zheng Chen chuckled: "As long as you don't stop them, those who originally wanted to quit and don't borrow food, I'm afraid they will hesitate again."
He Shen shook his head nonchalantly: "It's just a small trick. If you don't want to borrow money, you will return it sooner or later."
"good."
Zheng Chen nodded: "But those people who are not on the stage can only do such small things to hinder you after all."
He looked at He Shen with a smile: "Master He and Prime Minister Yan are surrounded by holy relatives, those people's usual tricks will not work all of a sudden."
"Look, these people are definitely no match for us."
He Shen understood the meaning of his words.
Naturally, these big households have unique skills in rectifying local officials.
Generally speaking, local officials are appointed every three years, and after three years of service, they will be evaluated by the Ministry of Officials and the imperial court.
But these days, there are not many officials who can work steadily for three years.
Either there is a problem above, or there is a problem below.
And what the country gentry are best at is to find problems under people.
If a magistrate who doesn't know how to cooperate and fights against each other comes, the big family will naturally have a way to make him go away.
Local officials have just arrived in office and are not familiar with local government affairs, so it is easy to make various mistakes.
And the big households can grasp this point, set a trap for the magistrate, and lead him to make a big mistake.
At that time, even if their people in the court do not take action, the officials who made mistakes will be transferred away at least, or they will be demoted directly.
And big households can naturally wait until the next magistrate comes to take office, and then slowly adjust...
Only a very small number of magistrates with strong backgrounds or experienced experience can avoid this catastrophe.
But in the process of getting along, it is still indispensable to be angry with them.
If you think about it, you will know that officials like Lian Heshen and Yan Song who are in charge of the court, these rampant big families dare to use eye drops, let alone the local officials below?
If some ordinary imperial envoy came here this time, it would definitely not be able to withstand the toss of the big family in the end.
But this time, one of the two people who came here is the prime minister, and the other is in charge of the official department. They are people who can be the backstage of others.
Now these two have only His Majesty the Emperor on their heads. If they want to get rid of them, the only way is for the Emperor to change his mind.
Just, is this really possible?
"His Majesty……"
He Shen was still a bit worried at first, but after thinking about it, he suddenly shook his head and laughed: "That's right, with His Majesty in Beijing to take care of you, I think it will be all right."
Zheng Chen just said casually at the beginning, showing respect, but he didn't expect He Shen to look relieved, and couldn't help but become more curious.
"And my lord, there are many people under those people who have friendship in the court, and some even have friendship with many military officers."
"Could it be possible that His Majesty can really deal with those people?"
"Your Majesty naturally has a solution."
He Shen didn't want to talk more about this with him, so he changed the subject with a smile: "Is there anyone here in Nan'an who can write dramas? Can Mr. Zheng do a search and please come here?"
Zheng Chen frowned, and suddenly had some bad associations in his mind: "My lord, what are you going to do?"
He Shen said with a smile: "He, Yan Song, can write dramas and arrange dramas. Naturally, I can let others write dramas and arrange him."
"This..." Zheng Chen looked at him dry-mouthed.
He Shen spoke with joy, as if he had been conceiving a draft in his heart since the conversation just now.
"Just write about a salt merchant named Shan Gao!"
The name of the salt merchant is Shan Gao... Isn't this riding horse Yan Song?
Zheng Chen's forehead twitched, only feeling a little raw.
He Shen went on to say with high spirits: "This man has recognized a high-ranking official named Yan Gaoshan as his adoptive father, so he committed crimes, bullied the market, forced the people to buy his expensive salt, and even dared to beat the officials of the transshipment department. Run amok forever!"
"Yan Gaoshan..." Zheng Chen's eyes darkened.
The more He Shen said, the happier he became: "But there is justice in the hearts of the people in the world. There is a young official named Shen He in the Salt Transportation Department. He is quite handsome, with bright eyes and sparse eyebrows. Shang Shangao's evil deeds, fighting wits and courage with him..."
He and the adults spat and talked all over the place, talking a lot.
Zheng Chen's eyes straightened when he heard it, and he thought that Yan Xiang just rehearsed a play, and you are always going to make a long series with this posture?
"Defeating officials of the strict party one by one, Shen He's officials became bigger and bigger, and finally the corrupt official Yan Gaoshan had to give in..."
He Shen also added the elements of fighting monsters and upgrading to make the story more exciting.
It's just that after he finished talking about his masterpiece, Zheng Chen's eyes were straightened, apparently he didn't listen to anything.
He Shen secretly sighed in his heart, but he still smiled and said: "Old Zheng has all eyes and hands, so the matter of finding people and writing the script will get rid of you."
Zheng Chen shivered, and quickly came back to his senses: "Don't worry, Mr. He, I will find you as soon as possible."
"it is good."
He Shen slapped his thigh: "It's best to write it in one day, rehearse it in another day, and sing it everywhere in another day!"
Zheng Chen said in his heart, why don't you kill me?
"I will do my best." He replied with a dry smile.
Of course, the strength of the Zheng family is not built on. Their own family has many sour talents who write operas and opera troupes who sing operas. Now that He Shen has a request, it is natural to speed up the production.
Under the management of a group of veterans and experienced hands, the theater troupe quickly made a schedule and rushed to the counties in the north and south.
Moreover, He Shen also supported these troupes with his own money, so that they don't have to go to Goulan Washe to collect tickets for making money, but go to perform in crowded places.
For example, on the construction site of a dam, in a busy city with many people...
It has to be said that the open and bright He adults are indeed better than Yan Song in some aspects, and the troupe spread the news even faster, and the people on both sides of the Yellow River soon knew about the play.
And because of He Shen's generosity, the spread of this play is even wider than that of Yan Song, and it is welcomed by many people.
For a time, the names of Shan Gao, a salt merchant, and Yan Gaoshan, a treacherous official, were notorious.
Yan Song, who heard the news, naturally scolded He Shen for being treacherous and shameless, and soon banned this large-scale series on the North Shore.
But the news could not be stopped, and it was still spreading.
Capital City, Ziwei Hall.
In the political affairs hall, Li Qian was greatly inspired when he watched the report about what He Shen and Yan Song did.
In recent days, the rumors in Beijing have intensified and become very loud.
Li Qian couldn't help but let his subordinates arrest many of these rumormongers, but they were all dragged up by the Ministry of Criminal Justice with such a bad excuse as "you dare not listen to the king's rumors".
No matter what, there is no trial.
But seeing Yan Song and He Shen's methods today made Li Gan's eyes brighten, and he was suddenly inspired.
They can use public opinion to discredit him as the emperor, so can't Li Gan use public opinion?
Suddenly, Li Gan thought of the great weapon of newspapers.
