Chapter 35: Jia Ping'an tricked Chang'an
Xu Jingzong got the news and hurried to Chang'an City.
The bamboo shop has been renovated and is ready to open, but Liao Quan didn't bother with this, and after meeting Xu Jingzong, the first thing he mentioned was Jia Ping'an.
"It was said that His Majesty was sick, so a hundred horsemen came to take him, and there has been no news so far."
Baiqi is the emperor's person, and Liao Quan does not dare to spy on the news.
Xu Jingzong was dusty, and his face was also a little blackened. He looked at the store and saw Liu Jia reciting something there with a worried face, so he scolded: "When is it, and are you still in the mood to do business?" β
Liu Jia said with a sad face: "Jia Langjun said before leaving, hold steady, don't wave." β
Xu Jingzong was stunned, "Stabilize the old man's knowledge, this is to let the business be done." What does it mean to be a wave? Wave...... Wave ......"
Liu Jia said: "I'm afraid he's worried about who will go to the Qinglou to prostitute, so he said don't wave." β
"Let's do it." Xu Jingzong was angry before, but now he was more sober, and said: "If you do it well, the people of Huazhou will be concerned about the benefits of peace, so that the old man can also say more good things for him at Your Majesty." β
Looking back, Xu Jingzong was ready to enter the palace to ask for a meeting and intercede for Master Jia.
When he was standing outside the palace gate, Shang Shu Ma Yuan of the Criminal Department quietly appeared beside him.
Ma Yuan has a good beard and is known as a beautiful beard. Before speaking, the corners of his mouth twitched, revealing some disdain, "The old man has been waiting for you." β
"Wait for the old man to send you to the end?" Xu Jingzong opened the poisonous tongue.
When it comes to hurting people, who is he afraid of?
Ma Yuan smiled, and the corners of his mouth twitched again, "Jia Ping'an must have a place to come to Chang'an City, and the place must be approved by the state government." After he arrived in Chang'an City, His Majesty fell ill immediately, and this is your guilt. The old man has always wanted to impeach you, but he can't find a chance. This time, the old man just waited for you to sit still and came to Chang'an to intercede before making a move. Not so...... Otherwise, how can the old man wash away the humiliation of the year! β
- Transfer: If the people of Datang want to go out of the state and county to do things, they must apply to the village or Fangzheng, and then the village or Fangzheng will check that it is correct and report to the county; The county audits that it is correct, and then reports to the state for approval, and if it is correct, it will be issued, and the holder will travel by virtue of the pass...... In a word, it's really super troublesome to come out of the house this year.
Back then, everyone dared to say that once he had a dispute with Ma Yuan, he scolded Ma Yuan, saying that he knew all day long to praise the eldest grandson Wuji and others, so he got a high-ranking official to do it......
At that time, Ma Yuan's face was as red as a monkey's buttocks, and the key was that Xu Jingzong actually said: "Your face is like a monkey's buttocks." β
What a shame!
He just relied on a small circle to get promoted all the way, but so what?
Now that feng shui is in turn, it is Lao Xu's turn to be unlucky.
The old opponent appeared, which made Xu Jingzong's heart cold for most of the time.
Ma Yuan made a move, and then there will be many opponents to shoot, and the old man is in danger!
Later, the two entered the palace.
The monarchs and ministers were all there, looking at the two of them, their expressions were very calm.
Ma Yuan saluted, "Your Majesty, the minister impeached Xu Jingzong, the assassin of Huazhou." Xu Jingzong knew that the broom star was powerful, but he deliberately allowed him to come to Chang'an, causing His Majesty to fall ill. Xu Jingzong's move is ill-intentioned, and his heart should be punished! β
The eldest grandson is unscrupulous.
Chu Suiliang smiled slightly.
Li Zhi, who had 'recovered' for the most part, looked calm.
"Your Majesty......"
Xu Jingzong said sadly and indignantly: "Jia Ping'an is not a broom star, he has a relationship with the minister in Huazhou, and the minister knows that this son has a good temperament......"
Temperamental?
Li Zhi frowned.
"The minister has been with him for a long time, but he has never been unlucky, and there is a businessman Liu Jia in Huazhou who knocked down Jia Ping'an, and finally the opponent was unlucky, and he also made a fortune, His Majesty knows everything. Minister......"
Xu Jingzong knelt down, bowed his head and said: "Jia Ping'an came to Chang'an City this time for the well-being of the people of Huazhou...... Bamboo. β
"Your Majesty, the minister knows." Ma Yuan got the opportunity to clean up Xu Jingzong, of course, he was prepared enough, he went out of class and said: "That Jia Ping'an bewitched Xu Jingzong and made the whole of Huazhou make bamboo." Your Majesty, if those bamboo utensils can't be sold...... Huazhou is about to boil. How could those people be willing to spend money and food in vain? The minister didn't dare to think about the consequences......"
The eldest grandson Wuji sat and watched the impeachment of Xu Jingzong under his command, which was quite comfortable, but after hearing this, he couldn't help but go out of class and said: "Is this really the case? β
It's not his turn to take care of the affairs of a state, but the consequences of this matter are not light. In particular, Huazhou is not far from Chang'an, which can be called the gateway of Chang'an.
Ma Yuan nodded, "Eldest grandson, this matter is conclusive, Xu Jingzong listened to Jia Ping'an's slander, at this moment, Huazhou bamboo ware has entered Chang'an in a big way, and it is preparing to open in Dongshi, and the lower officials are worried...... Once no one cares, Huazhou will change. β
Xu Jingzong gritted his teeth and said: "This batch of bamboo utensils was purchased by the old man by selling his family property, even if it is a loss, it is also a loss for the old man, Ma Yuan, you are a dog with a mouse, nosy." β
Ma Yuan smiled and said confidently: "But the old man learned that Huazhou is still making bamboo now, could it be that those were also acquired by you Xu Jingzong?" β
Xu Jingzong was speechless.
He wanted to stop it in the future, but Jia Ping'an reassured him, saying that if he couldn't sell it, he would eat it all.
Can ...... now Jia Ping'an couldn't eat it, even if he turned into an iron-eating beast, he couldn't eat so many bamboo utensils.
ββThe iron-eating beast is the later panda, and the Qinling generation at this moment is distributed. And the giant panda in Qinling is not a cute thing that is locked up in the garden and makes a living by selling cuteness, it is a ruthless character who can hunt down wolves and leopards on several hills.
He gritted his teeth and said, "If something goes wrong, the minister ...... Minister......"
Ma Yuan sighed, "Your family property has been sold, what else can you do?" β
Can you Xu Jingzong still sell yourself?
Xu Jingzong: "......"
Li Zhi was silent.
Eldest Sun Wuji frowned, "Go and have a look." β
Li Zhi nodded, and Wang Zhongliang also went.
He went all the way to East City.
"It's so lively!"
Today's Dongshi people are all going in one direction, and Wang Zhongliang is squeezing forward step by step with great difficulty.
When he arrived at the bamboo shop, he saw Liu Jia standing on a desk, carrying a bamboo chair in his hand, shouting frantically.
"One bamboo chair with fifteen wen, two with twenty-nine wen, three with forty-two wen......"
Belch!
Can you still sell things like this?
The pure Tang people feel that this price is quite tempting at the moment.
Buying two chairs can be cheaper for a penny, and three can even be cheaper for three pennies.
That's good!
Liu Jia took out a piece of paper and glanced at it, and continued to shout: "Big sale, big sale, the eldest sister doesn't marry the second sister!" β
Burst!
A lot of people around laughed.
"Look here, look here, Huazhou's bamboo is a prison."
Someone had already rushed over, asking for the price, and then buying it.
Lose your marbles!
Wang Zhongliang couldn't help but shake his head slightly, feeling that those people's concentration was too poor.
"The water is flowing, the fish are swimming, and you don't have to worry about a Huazhou fishing rod in hand."
A fishing rod was bent badly in Liu Jia's hand, but it was not broken.
"Buy one!"
There is nothing else in Chang'an City, there are many ditches, and there are many fish in the moat outside.
"Buy two!"
Wang Zhongliang was guided by the fiery atmosphere of the scene, and his heart was ready to move.
"Take a look at you and don't suffer, try to see if you're not fooled, walk by, don't miss it! Huazhou bamboo, the first in the world! β
Liu Guan glanced at the piece of paper again, and shouted very smoothly.
It boiled.
Where have the people of Chang'an seen such sales methods, they were dizzy by the routine, and they flooded the store in an instant.
β¦β¦
In the palace, where Xu Jingzong knelt, Ma Yuan stood on the side with an indifferent expression.
Li Zhi was groaning.
Just now, Ma Yuan proposed to throw Lao Xu to the south, which is a root planing.
It's bold!
But Ma Yuan's latter suggestion was even more fierce, he suggested building a tower in Chang'an City, allowing Xuanzang to garrison, and suppressing Jia Ping'an while translating scriptures.
The former is to get Lao Xu, and the latter is to curry favor with Li Zhi.
A dispute ensued, Lao Xu had no capital, and he was defeated, so he could only wait for Li Zhi's decision.
Li Zhi groaned......
There was a sound of footsteps.
"Your Majesty!"
Wang Zhongliang is back.
Everyone turned around, stunned.
This man will come back when he comes back, but he is carrying a bamboo broom in his hand, two bamboo baskets on his shoulder, and several bamboo utensils around his neck......
Is this going out to buy?
"Your Majesty, the slave maid went to the East Market and saw the bamboo shop selling ......"
Wang Zhongliang felt as if he had experienced a catastrophe, and there was still excitement in his mind.
"That Liu Jia is shouting, big discount, big discount, the eldest sister doesn't marry the second sister to marry ......"
The monarch and the ministers were stunned.
Burst!
I don't know who laughed first, and then the ministers laughed wildly.
"What did you shout later...... Look here, look at this side, Huazhou's bamboo is a prison. β
Junchen's smile gradually froze.
"Take a look at you and don't suffer, try to see if you're not fooled, walk by, don't miss it! Huazhou bamboo, the first in the world! β
When the slave heard this, she couldn't help it, and somehow she squeezed in with the people and bought a bunch of things...... When the slave came out, the shop was already sold out......"
Ma Yuan's face was red, his heart was beating faster, and he felt that something was wrong.
"Your Majesty......"
Xu Jingzong screamed sadly, kowtowed, and said: "Your Majesty, these are all methods that Jia Ping'an painstakingly came up with, what is he for?" He didn't take anything, just for His Majesty and the people of Huazhou. But he never expected that as soon as he entered Chang'an City, he would be taken by someone, oh my God! Minister...... Minister......"
Everyone was shocked to find that Xu Jingzong was in tears.
In the past, Lao Xu has been an official for decades, how have you ever seen him cry?
Is this really sad?
"Your Majesty......"
Li Zhi couldn't help but be moved.
"Xu Qing, please get up."
Xu Jingzong felt that he couldn't get up, "Your Majesty, the minister feels wronged for Jia Ping'an!" β
Ma Yuan's heart was beating fast and poofing, which reminded him of how he felt when he saw a beauty.
Now it is up to the emperor to decide.
Li Zhi pondered for a moment, "That Jia Ping'an's move is quite beneficial to the people of Huazhou, I am not a stingy emperor......"
That's it!
Ma Yuan's heart was relieved, knowing that this matter was not enough for Xu Jingzong to fight back against him.
Lao Xu, do you want to be angry?
Hehe!
He smiled at Xu Jingzong covertly.
He got reliable news that he would be promoted in the near future and would overlook Xu Jingzong in the future.
Let's fight again next time!
Li Zhi suddenly smiled, very immature, "That Jia Ping'an actually helped me a few days ago. β
The eldest grandson Wuji frowned, "Your Majesty, you must be cautious in such matters. β
He felt that Li Zhi was fooling people.
Li Zhi squinted slightly, looking even more ashamed, "My body, as the imperial doctor said, is caused by excessive mental effort, but it is not restrained." Other than that...... A few days ago, Baiqi met some people, and those people followed those who shouldn't be followed, but they were discovered by Jia Ping'an. β
Eldest Sun Wuji smiled slightly, and then arched his hand: "Then this is indeed a credit." β
This time, the so-called quilt, the monarchs and ministers all knew that it was a statement that the emperor wanted to get Li Tao back, and after he failed.
There has been some restlessness in the small circle recently, and some people are staring at a few powerful people who are threatening to the small circle, preparing to use people to kill chickens and monkeys.
This matter was actually known by the emperor, and it was related to Jia Ping'an......
The eldest grandson Wuji knew that this matter could not be done, so he retreated.
"Let's disperse."
Li Zhi bowed his head, and when the ministers saluted and retired, he seemed to suddenly remember something, glanced at Ma Yuan, and said, "Ma Yuan...... Some frivolous, not good. β
Ma Yuan stood still.
Because the eldest grandson Wuji glanced at him with a blank expression.
The matter of promotion...... Finished.
My heart hurts.
Xu Jingzong got up......
"The old man knows that evil is invincible, hahahaha!"
Everyone's faces went black in an instant!
