The Royal Palace, the Imperial Study.
In the room, there were the eldest grandson Wuji, and several old ministers from the household department and the criminal department, and Li Shimin was furious, loudly reprimanding the few people standing in front of him.
A few months ago, he asked the people of the Criminal Department to seal the Drunken Immortal Residence with lightning speed; The reason is that Luo Yi accepted a bribe of 300,000 yuan and used the bribe money to invest in opening a restaurant.
It is necessary to mention here that the 300,000 yuan extorted by Luo Yi from Jiangnan was not handed over to the state treasury, to be precise, it was too late to hand it over, and it was distributed by Li Shimin.
The actual situation is that Luo Yi asked Er Fat to send 300,000 yuan to the household department, but he was rejected.
Therefore, Li Shimin said that Luo Yi accepted bribes, a full 300,000 yuan, even if he cut off his head, it is natural, but what Li Shimin wants is not Luo Yi's life, but money.
Therefore, the Criminal Department sealed the Drunken Immortal Residence, but what Li Shimin didn't expect was that the Criminal Department was timid and procrastinating, and when it was really sealed, the so-called Drunken Immortal Residence was already an empty shell, with nothing, and what he got was not more than 300,000.
I can't help but Li Shimin doesn't lose his temper, he set up this plan, he wants to make a fortune, let the treasury skyrocket, and he will never worry about the treasury in the future, but he didn't expect that the bamboo basket was empty, offended Luo Yi, not to mention, Drunken Xianju didn't get it, and there were more bad debts from the State Chamber of Commerce.
"Your Majesty, the minister heard that Luo Yi's retainer Liu Pang transferred all the property of the Luo family to Liujia Village, why don't you send someone to go?"
An official from the Criminal Department said.
Li Shimin said angrily: "What are you going to do? Robbery? Outrageous! ”
"You all get out of here, and the eldest grandson stays."
"Yes."
After a while, only Li Shimin and the eldest grandson Wuji were left in the imperial study, and there was not even a little eunuch.
Li Shimin asked, "Lord Eldest Sun, how do you think this matter should be handled?" ”
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "Dare to ask the emperor, do you still want Luo Yi to return to the court?" ”
Li Shimin said: "Of course I want to, and only he can clean up the mess of the State Chamber of Commerce, I checked the accounts yesterday, and I owe more than 7 million to the people, in addition to what he handed over to the treasury, there are still 4 million, where can I find it?" ”
"Besides, he is a descendant of Luo Cheng, and he has been loyal and good for generations..."
Speaking of this, Li Shimin already regretted it in his heart, after such loyalty, he made meritorious contributions to the Tang Dynasty, but he was sent to Xiliang and suffered from turbulence.
If you want Luo Yi to come back, I'm afraid it's not so easy.
The eldest grandson Wuji said: "The emperor can do it if he wants, as long as the emperor decrees to clarify Luo Yi's rehabilitation, the minister believes that Luo Yi will come back." His home is in Chang'an, and Mrs. Luo and eldest brother are also in Chang'an, so it is impossible for him to stay in Xiliang. ”
"Isn't that a confession of my mistake?"
Li Shimin frowned, slowly walked to the desk and sat down, and after thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "No, I'm not wrong!" ”
"He accepted a bribe of 300,000 yuan, did I wronged him? This is enough to sentence him to a decisive decision! I just punished him for walking 3,000 miles, which is already an extrajudicial favor. ”
"The matter of the State Chamber of Commerce, I have been handed over to the Hubu Shangshu, whether it is successful or not, it all depends on the ability of the Hubu Shangshu; As for the Drunken Immortal Residence, it has become an empty shell, and it is useless to seal it, but it will fall into the hands of others, it is better to give up, pass the decree, and return all the sealed Drunken Immortal Residence, which can be regarded as a grace to the Luo family for the sake of the Luo family. ”
"The emperor is wise."
The eldest grandson Wuji smiled and said.
In fact, when it comes to Drunken Xianju, the eldest grandson Wuji also lost a lot, he invested in Zuixianju through the management of Zuixianju in Huainan, Yangzhou and other places, and he could get tens of thousands of taels of silver every year, but Zuixianju was sealed, and he had nothing. This is also why he spoke for Luo Yi.
............
In the early morning, the sun rises in the east, and the morning sun pours down, covering the land.
The scenery of Xiliang is white, the snow is flying in October, the snow is flying, which can never be seen in Chang'an, the white earth, the hazy sky, gives people a refreshing feeling.
Take a deep breath and the cold breath in the air hits you.
Zhu Si and Zhu Wu walked around Jincheng, and finally settled down and remembered to return to Beijing.
The two asked Luo Yi for instructions, and Luo Yi also had the intention of returning, but Zhou Qiao came every day, so that Luo Yi was immaculate, and it was not easy to help the princess, so it dragged on for two more days, and then followed around the city.
Now that it was the third day, Luo Yi was ready to say goodbye to Zhou Qiao.
"Big brother, Li Heng is here..."
"What is he going to do?"
"I don't know."
Luo Yi opened the window and looked outside the Drunken Immortal Residence, Li Heng was really standing under the Drunken Immortal Residence, looking in from time to time.
Luo Yi turned around and said to Zhao Wenxian: "Let him come up, I just bid farewell to him, when I come, I don't have to be sneaky." ”
"Okay."
Zhao Wenxian closed the door and went downstairs to invite Li Heng.
After a while, Zhao Wenxian took Li Heng to the second floor and entered the room where Luo Yi was.
Luo Yi asked people to bring wine, and let Li Heng take a seat, and said: "Li Guoxiang, count the days, I have been to Xiliang for several months, thank you for taking care of me these days, let's drink this bottle together, thank you for your kindness, and I want to report it in the future." ”
Li Heng didn't return the salute, and said loudly: "Listening to what Hou Ye meant, are you leaving?" ”
Luo Yi nodded and said, "It's true, exactly." ”
Li Heng said: "Master Hou, why are you in a hurry, aren't you used to staying in Xiliang?" Still is... Still don't like Princess Qiao? ”
"Princess Qiao... Princess Qiao is very good, it's just... ”
Li Heng interrupted Luo Yi's words and said with a smile: "Master Hou, do you know what I'm doing today?" ”
"Please."
Li Heng said: "Last night, the king called me to the palace, and when I talked about Princess Qiao's marriage, I recommended you to the king at that time, and the king agreed, so I was sent to you today." ”
"The king's mind is very clear, he wants to recruit you as a son-in-law."
"Master Hou, this is a great opportunity, I remember the other day I asked you, how do you want to gain a foothold in Xiliang, as long as you become the master of Xiliang, then you will have a foothold, who does not look at you a few times, but compared to your Hou Ye's false name..."
Luo Yi said loudly: "Okay, you treat me as a fool?" Let's open the skylight and say something bright, don't you just want me to help you attack the Central Plains, don't you just want me to pay money, let me raise food, and let me support you, just this little thing, see how much you have detoured. ”
"You dare to say that you don't think that way in your heart?"
Li Heng looked stunned for a moment, and said with a smile: "Master Hou is really a smart person, and he likes to deal with smart people. Since Hou Ye knows it so clearly, then he might as well ask, what does Hou Ye mean? May it be the beauty of adults? ”
Luo Yi lowered his face coldly and said categorically: "Of course not, what do you think of me?" What did you think of Princess Qiao? ”
"I am the marquis of the Tang Dynasty, how can I rebel with you. I also advise you, don't go against Datang, Datang's territory is ten times better than yours, and you will never succeed. Do you remember the battle of Sleepy Sun? You've all had an absolute advantage, and in the end you didn't fall short? If the war starts again, the emperor will not let you go easily. ”
I thought that as soon as these words came out, Li Heng would think silently, but he didn't know that he actually looked up to the sky and laughed, and Luo Yi, who was laughing, straightened his hair.
Luo Yi frowned and said, "What are you laughing at?" ”
