Chapter 11 The Minister of Civil and Military Affairs is not as good as a country man

Chang'an City.

Late at night.

in the Royal Palace.

Dai Xuan, the secretary of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, looked at Li Er curiously, "I don't know what happened when Your Majesty Xuanchen entered the palace late at night?" ”

Li Er stared at Dai Xuan with burning eyes and asked, "Dai Aiqing is from the Jiangnan clan, and Jiangnan is rich, but I have never heard of the power of the Jiangnan Dai clan, what is the reason?" ”

When Dai Xuan heard this, his face turned pale with fright: "Your Majesty doesn't know, the Dai family is in Jiangnan, there are few people, it is not a big family, the minister is loyal to His Majesty, there is no second heart, the minister has been in the court for many years, and he has taken care of the clansmen in Jiangnan, but he never dares to bend the law for personal gain and seek personal interests for the family, please Your Majesty to investigate!" ”

"Hahaha......"

Li Er suddenly laughed and said: "Dai Aiqing doesn't need to panic, I am not a Xingshi to ask for guilt, but, there is one thing, the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty, I can only rest assured if I hand it over to you." ”

"Dare to ask Your Majesty, what is the matter?"

Li Erzheng said: "Dai Aiqing, you give me a good calculation, how much is the rich and how much is the poor in the world's land, grain, and land." Naturally, the faster the better. ”

Dai Xuan was stunned for a moment, "Your Majesty, at the latest in five days, the minister will definitely calculate it." ”

"Okay, I want to hear the truth, do you understand? This matter must be kept confidential and the information must not be disclosed. Li Er solemnly admonished.

Dai Xuan nodded solemnly: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty!" ”

He knows what's going on.

……

Next.

Early morning.

Outside the Hall of Manna.

Several people gathered.

Sikong Changsun Wuji.

Situ Wangqi.

Zhongshu Ling Fang Xuanling.

Wei Zheng, the servant of the door and the imperial historian.

The eldest grandson Wuji asked curiously, "Today is Xiu Mu, why did Your Majesty summon us and others?" ”

Wei Zheng's face was heavy: "Did something big happen?" ”

At this moment, Gao Chen, the attendant, came out and invited everyone in.

And they entered the temple of manna with great sorrow, and when they entered, they were given their seats.

Without waiting for everyone to speak, Li Er took the lead and said: "Ladies and gentlemen, I announced that everyone has entered the palace today, but I have an interesting thing recently, and I want you to see it." ”

The eldest grandson Wuji asked, "I don't know who gave it to His Majesty?" ”

Li Er said with a smile: "It's not a thing, it's a truth, called, the wool comes out of the dog." ”

Wool out of dogs?

Everyone here looked at each other.

Wei Zheng was the first to say: "Your Majesty, this is impossible, as we all know, wool grows on sheep, and dogs can only grow dog hair!" ”

Wang Jue also nodded: "Your Majesty, there must be someone with ill intentions to bewitch the emperor's heart, and the minister begs His Majesty to pull it out and cut it down." ”

Li Er smiled and casually picked up an inkstone on the table.

This inkstone is Li Er's beloved, and it is said that it was used by the sage Wang Xizhi.

Li Ernai is an admirer of Wang Xizhi and has collected many of Wang Xizhi's works.

Seeing this, everyone showed curiosity.

Li Er handed the inkstone to Gao Chen and said, "You now send someone to give this inkstone to a poor family in Chang'an City, and find someone to keep an eye on it." ”

"Yes!"

Gao Chen turned around and walked out.

The eldest grandson Wuji and the others all widened their eyes, not knowing what Li Er meant.

Li Er was in his chest, asked people to make tea for everyone, and comforted: "Everyone, Aiqing, don't be impatient." ”

Everyone was itching, but Li Er didn't reveal a word.

Everyone was panicking.

It wasn't until it got dark.

A eunuch ran in and said, "Your Majesty, Lu Guogong asks to see you." ”

A moment later, Cheng Yanjin ran in laughing.

He held an inkstone in his hand.

Cheng Biting Jin stepped forward, rubbed his hands and said: "Your Majesty, the minister knows that His Majesty loves Wang Xizhi's favorite thing that the old guy has used, today, Lao Cheng bought an inkstone at a high price, it is said that Wang Xizhi has used it, I have found someone to identify it, it is definitely genuine, and it is specially dedicated to Your Majesty." ”

Li Er asked people to take it, looked at it carefully, and smiled without saying a word.

Cheng Biting Jin scratched his head.

Isn't it wrong this time?

The last time he offered the jade pendant, he didn't get any benefits, and he was unwilling, so he searched his intestines and scraped his stomach, and decided to do what he liked, preparing to collect Wang Xizhi's works or used things to please Li Er, but now it seems that Li Er is not very moved.

Li Er turned around and ordered, "Let Gao Chen come in." ”

After a short time, Gao Chen walked in.

Li Er said: "Gao Chen, tell you all about today's affairs." ”

Gao Chen glanced at Cheng Yanjin with a complicated expression and said, "Yes, Your Majesty...... According to His Majesty's instructions, the minister sent this inkstone to a family in the west of the city that was not clothed, and after the male owner of the family got it, he took it to the pawnshop and used it as ten yuan of money, which was enough for his family to live for several months...... The shopkeeper of the pawnshop was a foreigner, and the pawnshop could not be opened, but after getting the inkstone, he sold it to a young merchant, and his pawnshop was saved...... The young merchant was originally in love with the daughter of a small official, but the official did not agree, so the man gave the inkstone to the official, and the official immediately agreed to the marriage of the two...... This official was a knowledgeable person, and recognized that the inkstone was an item used by the sage Wang Xizhi, and he heard that Lu Guogong was asking for it everywhere, so he sent someone to sell it to Lu Guogong's mansion for 20,000 yuan......"

The rest, without Gao Chen's introduction, everyone understands.

Cheng Yanjin got the inkstone and hurried into the palace.

Those present were dumbfounded.

Cheng Biting Jin was like being struck by lightning.

Dare to be affectionate, this inkstone is His Majesty's!

So what am I?

Is it wronged?

I saw Li Er say with a smile: "It seems that this inkstone is still very useful, saving a poor family, keeping a businessman's business, and achieving a marriage, which can be regarded as not in vain!" ”

Wei Zheng suddenly couldn't help but stand up and said loudly: "Your Majesty, the minister understands, this is what Your Majesty said, the wool is out of the dog, a small inkstone, it has so many uses, and this wool is finally out of Lu Guogong." ”

Everyone suddenly realized!

This sentence is so apt.

But Cheng was not happy to bite Jin, he pondered for a long time before he came up with the meaning of this sentence, and immediately pointed at Wei Zheng and scolded: "Wei Zheng, who is the dog that you are scolding?" ”

Wei Zheng smiled: "Whoever is stupid is a dog!" ”

"How can it be!"

Cheng Yanjin rolled up his sleeves and was about to fight.

Li Er patted the table and said, "Okay, Zhijie, this matter is an experiment I have done, in order to demonstrate this truth." ”

"Humph!"

Cheng Yanjin waved his fist at Wei Zheng and sat down indignantly.

Li Er asked solemnly: "Ladies and gentlemen, you have also seen that the wool comes out of the dog, and this is the case, but if any of you can unravel the truth behind it, I will not hide it from you, I also heard it from other places, and I thought about it for a few days, but I had no clue." ”

The more Li Er thought about this sentence, the more unfathomable he felt, but no matter how he thought about it, he couldn't think of the truth behind it, and he was embarrassed to put down his body and ask Chen Chu, so he summoned the important ministers of the court and personally demonstrated it to everyone, thinking that someone could solve the puzzle.

But who knows, the smart people present are all confused.

No one has an answer.

And Cheng Biting Jin, the party involved twice, still doesn't know what the situation is, only knows that he has lost tens of thousands of yuan before and after, and has become a dog.

Li Erxin was disappointed!

My minister of civil and military affairs is not as good as a rural villager?
