Tai Chi Temple.

The early dynasty officially began.

Zhang Chao and others took the lead in standing up and impeaching Du He.

"Du He, as a county boy of Yiyi, has the emperor's grace, willing to be a lowly businessman, his invention of mahjong, not to mention the harm, half a month, resulting in the violent death of eight people, I heard that four more people died last night, Your Majesty, if you don't deal with this matter, I am afraid that it will be a big loss of people's hearts......" Zhang Chao said impassionedly standing in front of everyone.

Many people thought that Zhang Chao was so fierce that he wanted to confront Du Ruhui, the right minister.

In fact, this product just wants to hit Du He's business in this way and make profits for himself, and it doesn't matter whether it will be remembered by the right minister.

Li Er asked, "Where is Du He?" ”

Zhao Yang hurriedly stood up: "Your Majesty, the county uncle of Hubei arrived early in the morning, and when he saw that the early dynasty had not started, he went to the East Inner Garden to find the emperor." ”

Everyone said in their hearts, Du He, this kid, he hasn't become a colt yet, so he treats the palace as his home?

Li Er said helplessly: "Let him go to the palace quickly, I have something to ask him." ”

The two little eunuchs hurriedly went to the East Inner Garden to declare Duhe.

Not long after, Du He came to the Taiji Palace.

When everyone saw Du He, they were all shocked.

I saw Du He dressed in a costume and wearing a cloak to go to the hall, dressed neatly and with a serious expression, as if he didn't look like he used to laugh and laugh.

Du He stepped forward and said, "Minister, Du He, I have seen Your Majesty." ”

Li Er said: "Du He, now, the ministers have impeached you in the last book, and there are three accusations, first, as the county lord of Juyi, you don't want to seek benefits for the people, but you are willing to be a businessman, competing for profits with the people, which damages the court's etiquette, and second, you invented mahjong to entertain the people, so that the people do not do their jobs, and disturb the people's hearts, and third, in less than half a month, eight people died violently because of playing mahjong, how do you explain this? ”

Du He smiled slightly: "The minister dares to ask, who is impeached?" ”

Zhang Chao immediately stood up and said confidently: "Uncle Yiyi, it is this official who impeached you. This official is the imperial history, that is, for my Tang Dynasty officialdom is disciplined, the tree is clear, and now, as the county uncle of the four products, you have made many bad deeds, impeaching you, why not? ”

Du He smiled: "Of course you can, if you impeach me, although I don't like it, I can't stop it, just like you fart in the main hall, although everyone hates it, but it can't stop you." ”

"You ......"

Zhang Chao's beard suddenly curled up in anger.

Everyone laughed.

Quarreling with Du He, isn't this self-defeating?

Looking at the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty, there are not a few who have scolded Du He, such as Kong Yingda, who was directly angry and vomited blood, and Wang Qi, who was stunned and wanted to commit suicide...... Anyway, Du He has never lost a quarrel, and even Wei Zheng will not speak again when he sees Du He now.

Without waiting for Zhang Chao to react, Du He said: "First of all, let's talk about the first question, Lord Zhang, you are a good pen, what does it mean to be a lowly businessman?" As the saying goes, the citizens discuss together, three teachings and nine streams, even if it is a lower nine rate, a first-class drama, a second-rate push, a third-rate king eight, a fourth-rate turtle, five shaved heads, six wiping backs, seven prostitutes, eight thieves, nine blowing ashes, but only male thieves and female prostitutes are lowly, right? Ordinary people, doing some business to support their families, and becoming businessmen, how can they be lowly? ”

"Shinong industry and commerce, the foundation of the community, businessmen are also on a par with Shi peasants and workers, why are they lowly, do businessmen eat your rice?"

Du He gushed endlessly, and asked Zhang Chao to blow his nose and stare at him.

Zhang Chao flicked his sleeves angrily: "In the past, Shang Jun said: The reason why the country is prosperous is also the agricultural war." If the people within its borders are all businessmen, for skills, to avoid agricultural wars, so the country will not be far away. Merchants pursue profits, harming the interests of the people, in the long run, the people are not able to make a living, the people are displaced, how can the people be stable? ”

Du He sneered: "Master Zhang is really a scholar, and Shang Jun's words are remembered so clearly, which is admirable." According to you, doing business is doing all kinds of harm and no benefit? ”

"That's right!" Zhang Chao was very sure, and thought that he had scared Du He.

"Dare to ask Mr. Zhang, if there is no Datang Furniture Factory, where does the revolving wooden chair come from?"

"Master Zhang, without the Tang Dynasty Study, how can the 5,000 books urgently needed by Guozijian be completed within 12 days?"

"Also, without me, Du He, a businessman, how can His Majesty's urgently needed "Du He Talks about Happiness", a total of 10,000 copies, be printed within half a month?"

Duhe threw the question out like a cannon.

"This ......"

Zhang Chao was speechless for a while.

Du He made up another knife: "Lord Zhang, you keep saying that businessmen seek profit and endanger the community, why do you want to do business secretly, I guess everyone still doesn't know, there are two Zhuangzi in the west of the city, who were previously responsible for printing books and supplying paper for the imperial court and the royal family, named Zheng Ji, which is Lord Zhang's industry, and he can also make millions of dollars every year, dare to ask Lord Zhang, have you taken out this money to help the victims?" ”

Zhang Chao was shocked.

This matter, he did very secretly, even his cousin Zhang Shigui, did not know.

It was actually known by Du He.

"You...... Duhe, you are talking nonsense! Zhang Chao pointed at Du He and shouted.

Immediately the crowd turned their heads and ears to each other.

It is not an exaggeration for the courtiers to do some business, like Cheng Yanjin and Qin Qiong, they have many industries, not to mention the eldest grandson's family.

But Zhang Chao's faction has always rejected business.

Now, it is a little difficult to think about the fact that businessmen are lowly, but they are secretly carrying out business activities.

Everyone cast contemptuous glances at Zhang Chao.

Du He said with a smile: "Lord Zhang quietly married a little concubine on the twenty-second day of the millennium lunar month, and the one who gave birth was called a beautiful flower, this concubine is named Zheng Jiumei, Zheng Jiumei has an elder brother named Zheng Shiji, Zheng Shiji is the shopkeeper of this Zheng Ji, this matter, presumably everyone still doesn't know, right?" ”

Wow?

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked.

Many people looked at Duhe in fear.

Dare to love Du He, this kid has checked everyone's background, and even found out such hidden things.

"Whether a businessman is lowly or not, and whether a businessman will harm the community, the answer is self-evident."

Saying that, Du He smiled slightly and continued: "Next, let's talk about the second question, Lord Zhang said that I entertain the people and confuse people's hearts, which is really nonsense, nonsense, and can be called fart. ”

"You...... How can you curse? Zhang Chao said angrily.

Du He sneered: "Scolding? I also want to greet your ancestors. ”

These people pay attention to their demeanor and image, Du He has no idol baggage, he scolds when he wants, and he can grass when he wants.

I only heard Du He say: "Do you know that in the past few months, countless disaster victims have poured into Chang'an City, most of these people are honest people, living on the relief of the government all day long, but after a long time, it is inevitable that people who have nothing to do will cause trouble, this is the data I got from Wuhou Shop...... Since April, the probability of fights and brawls in Chang'an City has increased more than three times compared with before, and almost all of them are victims......"

As he spoke, Du He took out a piece of paper with detailed data on it, and also stamped the big seal of Wuhou Shop.

Then Du He took out another piece of paper: "This is the data since the popularization of mahjong, and the number of fights and brawls has decreased by more than half compared to before." Nowadays, in the streets and alleys, where the victims gather, only a pair of mahjong is needed to attract dozens of people, with fun, entertainment, everyone will not think of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, the reason, is so simple! ”

As he spoke, Du He handed over the evidence provided by Wuhou Pu to everyone to cross over.

When everyone saw it, they all nodded their heads again and again.

"Yes, this fight has indeed decreased a lot!"

"I was passing by outside the city a few days ago, and I did see a lot of victims gathered together to play mahjong."

"What the county uncle said is right, this mahjong is indeed to entertain the people, but it is also beneficial, even my unfilial son, who used to be idle, bullying the people on the street all day long, after learning mahjong in the past few days, his personality has changed a lot!"

Even Li Er couldn't help but come down, picked up the data and looked at it.

In the end, Li Er said: "It seems that mahjong does have a lot of benefits, Du He, since this is the case, I will pay for it from my inner treasury, order a thousand pairs of mahjong, and distribute them to the gathering places of the victims everywhere, so that the victims can have entertainment, and they will not have trouble everywhere......"

Du He said: "Thank you, Your Majesty, the minister is willing to do a little bit for disaster relief, this thousand pairs of mahjong, only charge the cost price, 60 Wen a pair." ”

"Okay, it's rare that you have a heart, and I won't treat you badly." Li Er said with satisfaction.

Zhang Chao and the others next to him almost vomited blood in anger.

After a long time, instead of hitting Duhe, he added a business to Duhe?

What is this called!

Zhang Chao hurriedly shouted: "Your Majesty, no, absolutely not, there is a problem with mahjong, less than half a month, there have been eight violent deaths, when the time comes, if there is a large-scale violent death case, I am afraid that people's hearts will be uneasy!" ”

Without waiting for Li Er to speak, he heard Du He sneer: "Lord Zhang, are you finally willing to talk about this?" Let Master Wei tell you about this matter, I don't want to talk to a shameless person like you now. ”

Everyone looked at Wei Ting, the secretary of Dali Temple.

Wei Ting hurriedly stood up: "Your Majesty, my lords, it has been found out last night that among the eight people who died playing mahjong, two of them were seriously ill, and the remaining six people all died of poisoning, and the murderer who poisoned him has been found and is now locked in prison. ”

When Wei Ting received the news last night, it was already the second watch, and he rushed back to Dali Temple directly from home, interrogated overnight, and inquired about the entire ins and outs.

After speaking, he took out the case file and handed it to Li Er with his own hands.

Li Er returned to the dragon chair, but the more he looked, the more frightened he became.

Bang.

In the middle of the night, Li Er suddenly slapped the table.

With a bang, he threw down the case file and smashed it on Zhang Chao's head.

Li Er roared: "Zhang Chao, you deserve to die, you dare to poison and kill the people, you are not sorry to die, are you guilty?" ”

As soon as Zhang Chao saw this posture, how could he dare to quibble, and he knelt down with a puff.

"Your Majesty, the minister knows that he is wrong, the minister knows that he is wrong, ask His Majesty to be gracious, His Majesty is gracious......" Zhang Chao begged for mercy loudly.

Chen Shuda and others, who had impeached Duhe with Zhang Chao before, were all trembling at the moment, hating this guy to death.
