Li Linfu didn't know about this, but he turned a blind eye to many things by taking people's money to eliminate disasters for others, as long as it wasn't too excessive, he acquiesced, but he didn't expect Wang Ji and Lu Xuan to be so unreliable and bold, and they listed an illiterate Kang Daben in the first place in the official assessment.

The year before, the two of them did a fairly successful job, and this year's assessment list, Li Linfu signed it without looking at it carefully.

"Let's talk about Kang Daben's great achievements. Tang Xuanzong said with a gloomy face.

At this time, let Li Linfu say, what can he say? Could it be that he doesn't know Kang Daben, who has no ink on his chest, and only knows his money? Li Linfu kept wiping the sweat from his forehead, and said for a long time: "Back to the emperor, this is the first time I have seen the assessment list, and I need to go back and carefully check this matter before I dare to talk about it in detail." ”

"No need, I've already sent someone to investigate, you can wait there on your knees. ”

It took a long time for the results of the investigation to come back, and when he saw the twists and turns, Tang Xuanzong Li Longji actually smiled, and seeing the smile on the emperor's face, Li Linfu knew in his heart that he might be confused by this level.

Nakang Daben is also a strange person, his father is a famous businessman in Taiwu City, but he only knows how to eat, drink and have fun all day long, and he does not want to make progress. One day, when he was playing in Taiwu City, he met a half-immortal fortune teller. An ingots slapped it down and said, "Calculate for the master how many officials I can be." ”

That half-immortal knew something about Kang Daben, and he knew that if he didn't say it well, he might not be able to save his head that day. After pretending to do the math, he said, "Master, there is a top official in the capital waiting for you recently." ”

If ordinary people heard this, they would definitely beat that half-immortal, but Kang Daben didn't think so, he thought that he was a champion, and he would go to Beijing to take the exam when he went home that day.

The family has money, and his father will go to the capital whenever he wants to, so he should let his son relax.

Kang Daben hurried from home to the capital, and rushed to the capital when the city gate was closed. Knocking on the door and shouting: "Open the door quickly, don't delay me in taking the top prize." ”

Ordinary people only read it as a joke when they heard this, but it happened that Li Linfu went out at that time, and met this stunned person, and his brain was drawn to see Kang Daben's jokes, and he sent someone to give him a famous post and said: "Take my name card to sign up, I want to see what you can get out of the exam." ”

Kang Da himself is not stupid, he took Li Linfu's name card and handed it to the examiner and said that he was here to take the top exam.

Looking at Li Linfu's name post, and then looking at Kang Daben's test papers, several examiners made difficulties.

A blank exam paper was handed in, is this for us to help answer the question? To be the first champion, what kind of relative of Li Linfu's family is this person?

How to deal with it, several examiners held a meeting overnight to discuss, and after fierce debate, finally holding the principle that it is better to make mistakes than offend Li Linfu and Master Li, several examiners worked overtime to help Kang Daben make the exam papers.

After the exam, Li Linfu had already forgotten about Kang Daben. Kekang Daben has gained insight in Beijing, and knows that he has hit the luck this time, throwing money around, and handling all aspects very well, and ranking first in the official assessment is a consistent assessment from top to bottom.

Yang Yuhuan, who was watching the excitement in the imperial study, said with a smile: "This Kang Daben is really a lucky person. ”

"Definitely. Tang Xuanzong nodded.

Then he asked, "What is Master Li going to do with this person?"

"This person deceives and deceives his superiors and subordinates, and he should be punished!" Li Linfu threw Kang Daben out without hesitation.

"Actually, he didn't lie to you or hide it from you at all, it was your subordinates who deceived you. Yang Yuhuan interjected beside him.

According to the Tang Dynasty system, women are not allowed to interfere in politics, but Tang Xuanzong didn't take this matter to heart, he nodded and agreed with Yang Yuhuan's opinion and said: "Yes, it's not Kang Daben who is at fault, it's you self-righteous people, Master Li go down, think about it behind closed doors and review your own guilt in a few days, and after the reorganization of the ministry, the official assessment will be sent back for redo." ”

Just thought about it behind closed doors, and did not cut his post and punish him, which made the stone in Li Linfu's heart drop all of a sudden, and after bowing his head to thank him, he carefully looked at the few people present, and found that Li Shizhi, the assassin of Tongzhou, was also there. This made him wonder in his heart: Did he come to inform?

Whether it is true or not, Li Linfu has put Li Shizhi on his opposite.

After sending Li Linfu away, Tang Xuanzong's mood was much better, and he pulled Li Shizhi to talk about the Li family's parents. moved people with emotion, and quickly subdued Li Shizhi's heart. Tang Xuanzong sighed and said: "Our Li family is already a small number of people, and we will have to move around more in the future." ”

Tang Xuanzong's purpose in saying this was actually to find out Li Shizhi's attitude, and to see if he was still thinking about his throne because of his grandfather Li Chengqian.

Li Shizhi's brain turned quickly, and he immediately understood what the emperor meant. He respectfully saluted Tang Xuanzong and said: "Emperor Mingjian, although we are our own family, the courtesy of the monarch and the minister cannot be abolished, the king can summon the courtiers, and the ministers cannot interfere with the emperor's daily life." ”

Li Shizhi's words made Tang Xuanzong Li Longji feel greatly useful, and he was very satisfied that Li Shizhi did not take the grace of saving his life to report.

Under the blowing of the wind on Yang Yuhuan's pillow, Li Shizhi was exceptionally promoted to the secretary of the Criminal Department. And Kang Daben, a farce-like character in the world, was entrusted with the position of the commercial manager of Taiwu City under the role of Tang Xuanzong's joke heart, mainly responsible for the management of merchants. In a few years, Taiwu City has developed into a commodity distribution place around ten cities and eight counties, and the local people are rich, the people are pure, and they are happy.

In the first year of Tianbao, Li Shizhi was promoted to the left minister, and Yang Yuhuan remembered Kang Da originally, and proposed to Tang Xuanzong: "San Lang, let's go to Taiwu City to have fun, okay?"

Tang Xuanzong is old and likes to play and enjoy, the two hit it off, this time with experience, Gao Lishi selected two strong men with high martial arts from the guards, and dressed up as merchants to go all the way to Taiwu City. Gao Lishi took more than 30 capable secret guards and quietly retreated.

Taiwu City is not too far from the imperial city, the street market is very lively, there is a restaurant at the gate of the city, the signboard is written with three big characters of Nian En Lou, and the couplets on both sides read: all the delicacies in the sky are fine, and the underground family banquet will not be.

Seeing this couplet, Tang Xuanzong became interested: "This cowhide is really big enough, take the jade ring, I will take you to eat dragon meat." ”

Tang Xuanzong Li Longji took Yang Yuhuan and two guards and strode straight upstairs and sat down.

The shopkeeper stepped forward and asked with a courteous smile: "Four guest officers, come over for tea or dinner?"

Tang Xuanzong said with a provocative smile: "Eat, you have to eat the best food in your store, and give me a plate of dragon meat." ”12910
