When the trio of investigators who went out of the city entered the city, it was already evening time to get off work. After Sun Fujia and the squire of the Criminal Department returned home, they immediately wrote a recital and handed the results of today's investigation to the palace.

However, before that, a certain Flying Tiger general had already reported what he had seen today to an old eunuch.

After listening to the old eunuch's report, the emperor smiled.

At a certain time, Ju Guogong was very happy in his heart!

is worthy of being his own son-in-law, this honeycomb charcoal thing is done beautifully!

However, is it time to discuss with his son-in-law and ask him to let the iron be relented? The family doesn't speak two words, and it is natural for the son-in-law to be filial to his father-in-law!

A certain Shiro, who was far away in his own workshop dormitory in Da'anfang, couldn't help but sneeze, always feeling that someone was calculating him.

At night, it was still cold and snowy, and the old king took a look at his dilapidated yard, and he had to clear the snow again when he got up tomorrow morning!

With a sharp creak, the old king closed the thin wooden door with the shaft about to break off, and glanced at the stove in the room, which looked like a small back basket, and his old face showed a deep gratitude.

If it weren't for the simple stove in front of him, on such a snowy day, the old king felt that he would definitely not be able to survive this winter like the pair of grandchildren in the neighboring village.

"Prince Rende! Prince Rende! ”

He bowed to the stove with a fist, and the old king looked solemn and prayed in a low voice: "May you be safe!" ”

When the prayers were finished, some pine leaves were made, and the stove was lit, and the old king prepared to lay on the simple bed made of a wooden plank.

"Bang! Boom! Boom! ”

Suddenly, there was no knock on the rotten door, and there was a voice from outside the house with chattering teeth: "There is... Yes... Anyone? I'm a businessman who walks on my feet, and I can... Yes... Can you spend the night here? ”

"It's coming!"

The old king answered, walked to the door and opened the door. Outside the door was a middle-aged man carrying a burden, and the middle-aged man looked quite kind and didn't look like a strong man. The corners of the middle-aged mouth have turned purple, and the body and burden are full of white snowflakes!

"Is this day still a foot trader?"

Lao Wang frowned, looking at the middle-aged man in front of him who was frozen, he couldn't help but think of the night when he was frozen and woke up a few days ago, and said softly in his heart: "Come in, they are all poor people!" ”

"Thank you!"

The middle-aged man lowered his eyebrows and thanked him, looking grateful.

After entering the house, he put the burden on the ground, and the middle-aged man followed the old king to sit on the edge of the stove.

The middle-aged man couldn't wait to stretch out his hand and warm himself by the stove, while grinning: "My husband uses honeycomb charcoal for this stove, right?" ”

"Yes! It's all the prince's benevolence, if he hadn't sent the little gentlemen to send this, the old man would have frozen to death ......! ”

The old Wang nodded, and the two opened the conversation.

The two of you talked about the prince, sighed about the stove, and talked about the carbon ball.

The middle-aged man talked about how many babies he had at home, and he couldn't talk about what he didn't eat in the business.

For a while, there were some colleagues who fell into the world.

It's getting late, and the temperature is getting colder. But in the house, the old man who has been lonely for many years wishes that someone would chatter, and the middle-aged businessman likes to talk about the mountains, and the two seem to have the energy to chat more and more.

It's just that the old king's eyes, which were already a little cloudy, failed to detect the trace of impatience in the corners of the middle-aged businessman's eyes.

The old king is old age, how can he have such good energy?

After chatting for a while, the old king finally couldn't stand it anymore, yawned, and motioned for the middle-aged to sleep next to him.

The middle-aged man looked grateful and hurriedly thanked him!

Nodding, the old king stood up from the fire, turned his back to the middle-aged, and slowly walked to his small bed.

Suddenly, the old king felt that his neck had been hit hard, and his body suddenly couldn't lift a little strength.

Lao Wang's head and body went limp, and he threw himself forward.

The middle-aged man with his fist clenched stepped forward, grabbed the old king's head and threw it on the plank.

I found a piece of mud, took off the cigarette tube made of bamboo, stuffed the soil into the bamboo, and put the bamboo tube back in its place.

"Old thing, if you want to blame it, you can't blame your own life!"

After doing all this, the middle-aged man closed the only window of the house tightly, dropped a sentence and walked out of the broken house with his burden, and his body disappeared into the wind and snow.

The charcoal fire in the furnace was still burning, and there was a slight crackling sound from time to time, which was the stone mixed in the coal being burned. The old king seemed to be in a sleep, only to feel that his breathing was becoming more and more difficult, and his body was getting colder and colder......

The next day, at the court meeting, after the old eunuch read the report of Sun Fujia and the servant of the criminal department, the emperor set the tone for the behavior on the Tang River: "On the Botang River in Wu'an County, the development of stoves and honeycomb charcoal is meritorious, and the reward is ten horses of silk and a reward of 10,000 yuan." ”

The true emperor and father-in-law are justifying the name of their son-in-law!

Tang Heshang, who received these rewards, pursed his lips and said, "The emperor is stingy!" ”

How much is ten horses worth of silk?

How much is a bounty of 10,000?

It's not gold, it's 10,000 copper coins!

At the same time, a pair of brothers and a petty official in green shirts came one after another.

After understanding why the three of them came, the officials of the Ministry directly led the person to the eldest grandson Wuji.

Looking at the three young people who were full of doubts in front of him, the eldest grandson Wuji smiled faintly, and said: "Three, it is not the official who transferred you back to Chang'an, and it is better for him to tell you the Tao in person." It just so happens that the official has free time today, so I will take you to meet the Lord! ”

The three young men hurriedly saluted and thanked them, and then followed the eldest grandson Wuji all the way east.

Out of the palace gate, passing by Yongchang Fang, and then walking forward dozens of steps, a huge gate appeared in the eyes of the three young people. There is a lying long stone at the door, and the stone is carved with four big red characters "Chang'an College"!

Is this for the three of us to read?

The three young men glanced at each other and found that the doubts in each other's eyes were even stronger.

The eldest grandson Wuji still smiled and didn't speak, and led the three young people into the gate and continued to move forward.

Along the way, the three young people couldn't stop sightseeing left and right just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden.

Oh, this playground and this grass look so comfortable!

Frightened, this stele "sets up a heart for heaven and earth"?

Ouch, and this building, what is it made of? The shortest is three zhang high, and the tallest is six zhang!

Also, is this window glass? When did Datang become so rich?

The appearance of the three young people behind him, the eldest grandson Wuji looked at it without a trace, and smiled slightly, not surprised.

Finally, he walked to the three-zhang high conjoined building, climbed the steps, climbed to the third floor in one breath, had no tricks, and directly pushed open the door that said "Deputy Mountain Chief's Office", and the eldest grandson Wuji finally opened his mouth: "Tang Shilang, I sent someone to you!" ”
