Li Gu lost his soul and returned to the mansion, only one word was ordered, no one was allowed to disturb, and he entered the study. Everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion had a sense of panic covering the top of the dark clouds, as if it had reached the end of the world.

The people in the capital seem to have a kind of ability to be deaf and clear-sighted, and the slightest wind and grass is clear.

His Majesty sent the young master to check on Xiangye, and everyone has known for a long time, how could such a dramatic matter be discussed by no one. This trick is ruthless enough, the young master is covering up with the master, the two of them are finished together, if they don't protect the master, if they do something fatal, the master will be completely finished.

And he is a corrupt official who was certified by his son, Li Gu doesn't want to turn over in his life, as for Li Ji, he can't get any benefits, as a son of man, but he denounces his father, it is unfilial, and he will be hit by five thunders from the sky!

No matter how you think about it, the Li family is going to be finished, and this illustrious prime minister's mansion is afraid that it will be time for it to decline.

Butler Li Fu walked around, suddenly, he noticed that at the root of the east wall, a huge locust tree withered, and there were yellow fallen leaves everywhere.

He huffed, picked up his broom, and ran over to sweep.

While sweeping, while crying, Li Gu moved into the mansion for the first time, and saw this century-old locust tree. Li Gu was in high spirits at that time, and he also said in person that the locust tree is the tree of the minister, and with this ancient locust tree, the Li family can always prosper. I still remember that when the young master was a child, he liked to climb the tree to play, and once he fell from the tree and injured the back of his head, but the old man was in a hurry, and hired famous doctors everywhere, and it took three days for the young master to come back to life...... The more he thought of this, the more sad Li Fu became, what the hell was going on, it was like this!

Young master, you really shouldn't be!

Li Fuzheng complained, and suddenly someone ran over in a hurry, came to his side, tried to tighten his throat, and said in a flattering voice: "Master Hou is here!" ”

"Master Hou?" Li Fu hadn't reacted yet.

"It's the champion Hou who came to see Xiangye!"

Hearing that it was Ye Hua, Li Fu was so frightened that he hurriedly threw the broom, turned his head and ran.

The seven-rank officials in front of the prime minister's door, the officials who came from ordinary places, they had to be polite when they saw them, and they didn't dare to offend, but they really couldn't show their majesty with Ye Hua.

"The villain greets the Hou Ye."

Ye Hua said: "Don't talk nonsense, I came by holy decree, I want to ask Li Xianggong to speak, and lead the way ahead." ”

"Yes, yes, yes."

Li Fu bowed his body in front of him and walked in small steps.

led Ye Hua to the door of the study, and Li Fu's footsteps stopped.

"Master Hou, my family master instructed that no one is allowed to disturb him, can Master Hou wait a moment and let the villain go to the courtesy."

"Not necessarily!"

Ye Hua walked over directly, stretched out his hand to push the door of the study open, and looked inside, but Ye Hua was frightened, it turned out that Li Gu was standing on the stool, trembling, hanging the silk silk on the beam, and was about to commit suicide by hanging the beam!

"Oh, Li Xianggong, no!"

Ye Hua jumped over in three steps and two steps, and reached out to help Li Gu down.

When Li Gu saw Ye Hua coming, he shook his head again and again, "Master Hou, don't bother about the old man, let the old man die!" ”

Ye Hua put him on the Taishi chair, snatched the silk silk with his hand, and threw it aside.

"Li Xianggong, after decades of ups and downs in the sea, I thought you were not broken! How? Can't survive such a trivial matter? Want to kill yourself? Are you still a man? ”

Li Gu smiled sadly, showing fatigue.

"Master Hou, the old man really has no way to live, he can't die if he doesn't die!"

Ye Hua pulled a chair and sat opposite Li Gu.

"I won't stop anyone who wants to die, but I'm here to ask on behalf of the saint, what's going on with those grains, and what do you have to do with Daxiangguo Temple...... If you don't make this matter clear, even if you die, Your Majesty will not let go of the Li family! ”

Li Gu shook his head bitterly, "Master Hou, this matter is not clear!" ”

Ye Hua said viciously: "If you don't know it, you have to say it, you tell me!" ”

Li Gu took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Master Hou wants to hear it, so I will say it, this matter is with you...... And it matters! Ye Hua was stunned, his eyes widened, and he listened to Li Gu start to speak...... In order to recover Yanyun back then, Ye Hua gave an idea to the political hall and relied on war bonds to raise money.

Of course, this method is good, including the Son of Heaven and all the ministers, all of whom took the lead in paying money, but don't forget, at that time, everything was in ruins, whether it was the court or the people, there was not much money to spare, and it was not enough to rely on enthusiasm.

Li Gu handled the matter of bonds, and he hollowed out his mind and thought of a way, "I want to take out some money from the household department to buy war bonds." ”

The left hand issues bonds, and the right hand buys.

Is there something wrong with Lee Sang-gong's brain?

Not exactly!

This is a very clever operation, Ye Hua didn't point out, and actually squeezed out the reality.

The money from the treasury to buy bonds naturally led to a trend, and the price of bonds went all the way up, and the sales were booming, which attracted more people to participate.

"After the first batch of war bonds, the Third Division issued two batches in succession, raising more than 10 million military expenses for the imperial court."

Ye Hua crossed Erlang's legs, and it was difficult to hide his surprise.

The left hand issues bonds, and the right hand buys bonds.

With this hand, Li Gu can run to the Federal Reserve as chairman!

Have a great time!

But then Li Gu's old face was miserable, and he shrunk into a shriveled chrysanthemum, "Master Hou, you also know that the treasury has been running short, and the money raised by bonds has to be used for military expenditures, and the old man can't get more money to buy bonds, so, so ......"

He hesitated in his tone, he couldn't continue, but Ye Hua was shrewd, and after thinking about it a little, he guessed.

"Li Xianggong, did you go to borrow money from Daxiangguo Temple?"

"Hmm!" The corners of Li Gu's mouth twitched twice, "Before and after, I borrowed almost three million yuan, some of which were used to buy bonds, and some of which were used to fill the deficit of the household." ”

Ye Hua's eyes rolled, "It is precisely because of this that you have the handle in the hands of the Great Xiangguo Temple?" ”

Li Gu nodded.

So later, Daxiangguo Temple stirred up the wind and rain in the capital, pulled hundreds of officials into the water, absorbed deposits, and lent money wantonly, and no one dared to care...... Does it have something to do with it? ”

Ye Hua woke up like a dream, it stands to reason that the world has just been peaceful, and commerce is far from recovering to the scene of the Tang Dynasty, why did Daxiangguo Temple annex so much land, and why did it affect hundreds of officials?

Ye Hua once thought that it was his butterfly effect that made the Great Xiangguo Temple grow in advance! Now he figured out that it was indeed related to himself, but it was not an ethereal butterfly effect, but a war bond!

Of course, the war bond made the Great Xiangguo Temple stronger, and it also made Chai Rong target them, and decisively took the means of destroying the Buddha...... Finally, I was able to connect the causes and consequences of these things.

"What about disaster relief food? It can't be misappropriation of food to repay the debts of Daxiangguo Temple, right? Ye Hua gritted his teeth and said: "More than 30,000 people were starved to death, and Li Xianggong didn't know about this?" ”

Li Gu shook his head helplessly, "Master Hou, in advance, I really didn't know that the order given at that time was to allocate military rations, but who would have thought that the military rations were not transferred, but instead used disaster relief food to fill the number, and when the old man understood the situation, he had already died." At that time, the war was tight in front, and the old man could only transfer money from neighboring states and counties, but there was no shortage in various places...... Alas, the old man knew that he was guilty of a great sin, and he was willing to apologize for his sins with death, and asked the Hou Ye to play His Majesty, the old man lived up to the grace of the saint and deserved it. Li Ji, as a minister, is loyal to the monarch and serves the country, and kills his relatives with righteousness, and asks His Majesty to reuse it, and the old man dies without complaint! ”

Li Gu said, took out a bottle of Heding Red from his sleeve, and dared him to prepare the suicide three-piece suit!

Ye Hua's hand was quick, and he snatched the crane top red over.

"Lee Sang-ko! As you say, then you have merit and no fault, so why should you commit suicide? ”

Li Gu became more and more embarrassed, "Master Hou, Daxiangguo Temple has done so many things, the old man, as an important minister of the imperial court, he can't help but be negligent!" ”

"Is it just an oversight?" Ye Hua asked again, and his tone was even better than before.

Li Gu hesitated for a long time, shook his head helplessly, and said, "Master Hou, why bother the old man!" Once this matter is opened, all the things that the Great Xiangguo Temple did before will be pushed on the old man's head. What's more, the old man presided over the Qingzhang Tianmu, which was already angry and resentful, and there were enemies everywhere, and they would use this as an excuse to put the old man to death! Instead of dying at the hands of others, it is better to cut yourself off first, so as to avoid trouble! ”

Ye Hua smiled, "Li Xianggong, you want to keep Ling Lang, right?" ”

Li Gu tilted his head, closed his eyes slightly, and tears flowed from the corners of his eyes, "The sage said that in this world, the most difficult thing is my father." The matter of Daxiangguo Temple implicates Chai Taifu, the old man is not dead, and he will be exterminated by the nine clans! ”

As an old bureaucrat with a strong heart, Li Gu will not beg for death easily, but in the face of the situation in front of him, he really has no choice, Chai Rong can forgive anything, and he will not forgive the calculation of Chai Shouli!

Baiguan hated himself even more, as for Ye Hua, although he promised to help, he would never offend the whole world for his own sake...... Can there be a way to live except for one death?

"Li Xianggong, in fact, if you want to live, it's not difficult, if you want to keep Ling Lang, or even let him rise to the top, there's no problem, you only need to do one thing!" Ye Hua said quietly.

Li Gu was as if he had heard a nonsense, and sneered: "Champion Hou, why do you deceive the old man? I'm all dead, can you bear it? ”

"No, no, no, I'm telling the truth." Ye Hua said: "The past things are indeed unclear, and those bad debts can't be understood." But the deficit of more than 10 million guan is indeed true, and as long as Li Xianggong can solve this deficit, he will naturally be able to survive. ”

Li Gu asked curiously: "Master Hou, do you mean to let the old man run the treasury, manage the money for Da Zhou, and earn enough 10 million yuan?" ”

Ye Hua laughed, "Li Xianggong, you are pretending to be confused!" If you are still in charge of the treasury, will the money be earned by you, or by the court? I mean, how about letting you resign as the third envoy, and then rely on your own ability to earn 10 million yuan for Da Zhou and wash away your sins? ”

"Not how!" Li Gu stood up all of a sudden, he stretched his neck, closed his eyes and said, "Come on, you can kill the old man now!" ”
