Li Er thought about the powerful relationship, now the opening of the imperial examination can not only soothe the hearts of the people but also suppress the family, now the Lu family has fallen five surnames and seven sects, each of which is in danger, and the development of the imperial examination has suppressed the family again, the Lu family is killing chickens and monkeys, and the bottom of the imperial examination is drawn, looking at Gu Qing and saying, "Have you arranged it a long time ago." ”

"Chen just thinks that the family is not so important to Datang." Gu Qing said.

"I'm really reluctant to kill you." Li Er looked at Gu Qing.

"Your Majesty, is there anything wrong with what the minister said" Gu Qing said, "The family has always been the students of the world, and the scholars have even intervened in the court, not suppressing the family, and the Tang Dynasty has been hindered everywhere." ”

"Then you admit it," Li Erchin said, "Fan Yang's chaos has something to do with you."

"It has nothing to do with the minister." Gu Qing immediately denied it.

Observing Gu Qing's demeanor, Li Er stood up, "Gu Qing, I still say that as long as you are still in Datang and you do things for Datang, as long as you don't judge Datang, I won't kill you, and I will let you enjoy all the glory and wealth." ”

"I remember." Gu Qing replied.

Li Er said again, "Gu Qing, you sacrifice potatoes, make firearms, make new paper, you have done a lot for the Tang Dynasty again and again, I see it in my eyes and remember it in my heart, there are some things that we monarchs and ministers don't have to hide so much, I won't force you to be an official anymore if you think about your free life, but I hope you can talk to me." ”

"I understand." Gu Qing also said, "Your Majesty, the minister just wants to live a simple life, and there are some things that have to be done for the people around him, if it is Your Majesty, Your Majesty will do it too." ”

Li Er nodded, "Gu Qing, this time your academy can come up with a question in the imperial examination, and your academy students can also participate." ”

"Thank you, Your Majesty." Gu Qing bowed and saluted.

"I'm gone." Li Er walked out of the academy with a flat face, and the sound of Lang reading aloud from the academy in his ears was in his ears, and he sat in the carriage and went to Chang'an, muttering to himself: "Gu Qing, you still guard against me." ”

Li Tai and Fang Zhizhi were gone, Gu Qing walked around the academy and returned to his home, and there was a cart of silver money being transported in front of his house.

"Husband, the soap is selling very well this time." Wu Mei said, "In just half a month, we have earned 3,000 yuan, this is calculated by the concubine, and we can get these things." ”

"Three thousand." Gu Qing also calculated in his heart that it was already good that the soap had been on for so many days.

Zhang Jie came with a few blacksmiths, and also brought a lot of parts, "Gu Tou'er, there are some things that these blacksmiths still don't understand." ”

"There's something you don't understand." Gu Qing stepped forward and looked at some of the parts that had already been made.

A few blacksmiths said, "Master Hou, we really can't make this big pipe of yours, and the hollow pipe can't be so smooth, I don't know if it's better to change it to a square shape, or it's okay to be thinner." ”

The wrought iron technology of the Tang Dynasty was not so good, and the level of forging was average, and the wall of the cannon barrel must be thick, otherwise it would explode, and the whole barrel of the barrel was blown up before the shell was blown out to its own people, which was equivalent to igniting an explosive around him.

"What you're doing is going to be torn down and redone." Gu Qing looked at the parts one after another, and did not cast them and polished them directly with pig iron.

"Master Hou, but this is too wasteful." The blacksmiths were in a dilemma.

"Don't be afraid of wasting time, let Zhang Jie send you more manpower." Gu Qing said to them, "I'll figure out the way for the pipe, and you can make the other things first." ”

"Okay." A few blacksmiths nodded.

Boling boundary, here is the territory of the Cui family's clan, in the temple; Li Yifu finally met the head of the Cui family, "In the Lower Li Yi Mansion, I have seen the head of the Cui family." ”

"Li Yifu" The head of the Cui family looked at him, "What are you doing when you come to see the old man?"

"The head of the family, in fact, it is Gu Qing below, sent by Gu County." Li Yifu opened his mouth and took out the soap again, "This thing is called soap, and it is a new business that our Hou Ye is going to do, and our Gu County Hou is willing to do business with the Cui family to make friends." ”

"Gu Qing wants to be friends with our Cui family," the head of the Cui family sneered, "Our Cui family can't afford to climb Gu Houye, and the Lu family is down, it seems that the next one is our Cui family." ”

"The head of the family is too worried." Li Yifu said with a smile again, "Hou Ye has no ill will towards the Cui family, but it is so simple to befriend the Cui family, Gu Hou Ye is very sincere." ”

"Since you are Gu Qing's lobbyist, and I want to befriend your sincerity, but it is also empty and white, and it is all your mouth." The head of the Cui family said, "If you really want to make friends, let Gu Qing come to my Cui family to propose marriage, and with family affairs, our Cui family can be in the same boat with Gu Houye!" ”

Li Yifu didn't expect that the head of the Cui family would propose the trick of harmony, and said with a smile, "Naturally, it can, but this matter still requires the head of the Hou Ye." ”

"Hahaha......" The head of the Cui family smiled, "You go back, if Gu Qing wants to propose marriage with his relatives, it's fine, if he doesn't want to make friends, don't come to propose marriage, and don't send guests anymore, the old man doesn't like to meet people." ”

"That's what the head of the house said." Li Yifu said again, "The Lu family has fallen, and half of Fanyang City has been slaughtered, it's a pity......"

"What do you mean, you are threatening the old man" The head of the Cui family said with anger, "The Lu family is stupid, and the Cui family has always been clean." ”

"yes, clean." Li Yifu said, "In fact, it doesn't matter if a person is clean or not, even if you wash it cleanly, someone can always find out the flaws, maybe a basin of dirty water is not dirty and dirty, the head of the house, what I said is right!" ”

"Believe it or not, the old man can't let you get out of this Boling!"

"Try it, master." Li Yifu said calmly, "It's just a cheap life in the next place, but the Hou Ye is righteous, and if he doesn't move, he will give the next one a back." ”

"You are presumptuous!" The head of the Cui family roared angrily.

"I'm going to say goodbye first, and I'll wait for the reply from the head of the house at the post house." Li Yifu said again, "If the head of the family wants to get along, in fact, there is no need to bother the Hou Ye, it is also a good choice to be in the Xia, maybe you can still say a few good words in front of the Hou Ye!" ”

The head of the Cui family trembled angrily, stared at Li Yifu and left, and smashed the tea bowl in his hand to the ground, "Gu Qing! You're going to kill them all! ”

The situation here in Xingyang is not optimistic, the head of the Zheng family sits in the clan with a cloudy face, the children and grandchildren of the head of the family have been kidnapped by a group of people, if they don't go to Chang'an to admit the sins they have done, they will kill these children and grandchildren, and the Zheng family will have to bear the charge of causing trouble to Fan Yang.

"Master, we can't do this." The children of the family said.

"You know what! That's all we can do! The head of the Zheng family said, "If we don't learn from the pain and cut ourselves, the affairs of the Lu family will be staged in our Zheng family!" Then Li Shimin is holding a butcher's knife in one hand and a jade seal in the other! ”
