Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Two flowers bloomed, one on each side. After Li You sent Mr. Huang Yong, deputy secretary of the right department of the Xixin Department, "out of the country" as a gift, he immediately summoned all the shopkeepers in Taisheng Coal Shop to the lobby.

    Seeing that everyone was a little uneasy, Li You laughed dumbly, "Today, I beat that eunuch out for trying to seize the property. Although this is not a big deal, it will still take a few days to deal with it. I am not afraid of him, but because  To prevent retaliation from spreading to you, we will temporarily close the business from today on, and half of the dividends at the end of the year will be distributed first. You can avoid it, find another place to live, or go to relatives and friends, and inquire about the news, and then come back and open the business after the situation calms down. "

    After everyone looked at each other, they dispersed.  Li You left shopkeeper Gao behind and asked, "How much coal is left in the Puli coal yard?"

    After calculating silently, shopkeeper Gao replied: "In addition to the 240,000 jins sold earlier, there are still 40,000 jins left, which are stored in the store. The 120,000 jins shipped in the past two days are not stored in the store.  Here, according to the owner's instructions, we have rented a yard in a nearby village for resettlement."

    Li You nodded and said: "Very good. It is estimated that the last batch of 80,000 kilograms will arrive tomorrow. We have arranged manpower to take care of it and store it in the village yard. There is nothing else to do. Mr. Gao, you can rest for a few days.  When I have free time, I will go to the village to take stock of coal."

    Shopkeeper Gao felt worried when he saw that Li You seemed to be making arrangements for his funeral, "My boss is very devoted to justice and is respected by all the people. Now that he has hated that thief and eunuch, is it really okay? Good people in this world may not be rewarded well."

    Li You felt that it was necessary to reassure Shopkeeper Gao so that he could continue to work with peace of mind, so as not to lose people's hearts and make it difficult to lead the team. After all, profitable business will continue to rely on these friends in the future.

    Thinking of revealing his "family background" at this point, Li Daguan said calmly: "It doesn't matter, you don't know, I am the person who saved the royal ancestral tomb. Therefore, I have the golden book and iron coupon given by the emperor to protect me, which is the iron script of the alchemy book in the storytelling.  . The emperor personally carved an oath on it. Let alone beatings. How can anything happen if he just kills a few eunuchs?"

    Ordinary people have limited knowledge, but they rely on the power of storytelling.  I still know about the Danshu Iron Coupon, which has been exaggerated by rumors.  After learning that his boss had this magic weapon for self-protection, shopkeeper Gao felt relieved and went to make funeral arrangements with a relaxed expression.  A moment.  All the friends in the coal shop learned that their boss had a divine weapon to protect their bodies, and their hearts quickly stabilized.

    Then Li You left Taisheng Coal Shop with Han Zong and other slaves, and went into the city to go home.  He had not come back for three days, and when he entered, he alarmed the whole family.

    In the backyard, Li You also gathered his wives, concubines, and children in the main hall. "I have provoked the eunuch, and I am worried that there may be some disputes in the past two days, and I am afraid that the house will be uneasy. Tomorrow morning, you can go out with your belongings in your car. Go.  I am temporarily taking shelter at the palace of the eldest princess of the Tenth Prince¡¯s Palace.¡±

    This is the first time since Li You became an official that he asked his family to go out to escape, and all the girls looked worried.  Don't know what happened.

    Li You laughed.  He reassured: "My husband is in control of everything, and nothing big will happen. It's just that if you make a mistake, you are not afraid of ten thousand, just what happens. Besides, you have to act like something is wrong to show others."

    Madam Liu, the wife of the wife, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly said: "Although I don't understand my husband's important matters, I won't go anywhere. I am just waiting here. My mother has taught me that husband and wife are one body. If my husband is in trouble, I will also  I won¡¯t deliberately avoid it.¡±

    Mrs. Liu¡¯s statement surprised Li You. He sighed a little touched and patted her hand, ¡°That¡¯s fine. I¡¯ll hire a few gatekeepers to prevent some unsighted people from coming to cause trouble.¡±

    But he said that since December 19th, the court meetings have stopped, and they are only waiting for the New Year's Day.  From the 23rd, all government offices in the imperial court will be sealed. From then until the 15th day of the first lunar month, except for the New Year's Day and suburban sacrifices, they are all public holidays.

    Seeing the last ten days of the end of the year, the court gradually calmed down a bit. After all, the quarrels affected the mood of the New Year. All parties had a tacit understanding of a temporary truce and began to enter the peak of public banquets and social gatherings.

    In the early morning of the 21st, Jiang Xinyue, the censor of Zuodu of the Metropolitan Procuratorate, walked into the public room sleepily. He had just attended a high-level banquet between the big and small Jiuqing last night, and he had not yet completely recovered his breath.  But it doesn't matter, the last two days before the seal were fine.

    He directed the servants to move the brazier closer so that he could take a nap warmly and replenish his sleep while recharging his energy for tonight's public banquet.

    The servant set up the brazier and left the house respectfully.  As soon as Jiang Zongxian closed his eyes, he heard urgent footsteps outside, which made him very upset. He shouted unhappily: "Who is outside!"

    But he saw his head of attendants sticking his head out from the door curtain and reporting: "Master! My father-in-law is here to deliver the message!"

    Jiang Zongxian was completely out of work at the moment, and he thought in annoyance that the people in the inner court were busy celebrating the New Year, and he didn¡¯t know what the purpose of patting his head was.  It's not that Mr. Jiang has no sense of responsibility, but he knows without looking that this imperial edict must be troublesome.

    According to one?You waved his hand in a carefree manner and said, "Please wait and see, the Chinese New Year will be here soon. Please clean your home! I will check when you come back in the evening!"

    In the front hall, Li You saw the two masters coming in person and bringing thirty officers, soldiers and servants with them, filling the small front hall.  He was baffled by this. This lineup was too exaggerated, and it was not about catching repeat offenders.

    Li You then raised his hands in salute to the two palms and said, "I'm bothering you two brothers. If you want to interrogate me, just send someone to call me. Why is it so grand? It makes me scared."

    Fan Zhong, the censor of Henan Province, did not exchange greetings, but only returned the courtesy: "By the emperor's decree, I will arrest you and take you to the Metropolitan Procuratorate. Please stop!"

    Catch!  ?  Li You was shocked. A fight as trivial as a small matter would lead to imprisonment?  Wouldn't it be enough to just go to the Metropolitan Procuratorate for questioning?  He was not mentally prepared to live in a prison!
