Chapter 119: Praying for Rain Unsuccessfully?
Zhu Yuanzhang trembled with anger at You Jingyan's report, he had actually heard of Li Shanchang's behavior of selling fame and reputation, but because it was the time to employ people just after the founding of the People's Republic of China, he really couldn't deal with him, and the other one was also thinking about his hard work over the years, so he turned a blind eye to him.

Unexpectedly, Li Shanchang didn't know how to restrain himself, and he did more and more things that couldn't be put on the table, and it was not the first time that a report like You Jingyan had been made.
After a long time, Zhu Yuanzhang calmed down and asked You Jingyan for his opinion on Li Shanchang's treatment.
"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that it is not appropriate to deal with Li Xiangguo openly now, the Ming Dynasty has just been founded, and the foundation is still unstable, if Li Xiangguo is investigated now, it will inevitably involve a large number of officials." You Jingyan said.
You Jingyan said that this officialdom is simply vulnerable to Zhu Yuanzhang, who is getting deeper and deeper in the city, so every time he talks to Zhu Yuanzhang, he really has to think about it several times before he dares to answer.
Just like now, You Jingyan also wants to say that Enke has not yet started, and the current positions are all a radish and a pit, if a large number of officials are dealt with, there will inevitably be vacancies, which will also lead to instability in the hearts of officials.
There is also a little bit that after dealing with Li Shanchang, those who don't know the truth have a feeling of being a cunning rabbit and a dead lackey, and it is difficult to do their best for Zhu Yuanzhang loyally.
These two reasons: No matter what point You Jingyan says, Zhu Yuanzhang is bound to be careful against You Jingyan, a person with 'unique political vision'.
Therefore, it is a wise move to get along with Zhu Yuanzhang and sometimes pretend to be confused.
"What the respectful words are very true, and it is indeed inappropriate to deal with him now." Zhu Yuanzhang smiled with relief: "It's still my brother who can understand our difficulties." ā
"Okay, if you don't have anything else to do, go back, I still have some pieces that I haven't finished processing."
That's right, there are indeed a lot of concerts that have been backlogged for a month, and Zhu Yuanzhang likes to do everything himself, so it is inevitable that he will be in such a hurry to hurry up and leave.
It's just that when You Jingyan was just about to leave, a eunuch announced: "Li Xiangguo has arrived." ā
"Xuan." Zhu Yuanzhang cast an unclear look at You Jingyan and said, "Jingyan, you also stay, and listen to what Li Shanchang can say." ā
"Yes!" You Jingyan was a little confused, Zhu Yuanzhang's intention to leave him was coming.
As soon as Li Shanchang came in and saw You Jingyan was there, he didn't mention what he was talking about.
"Good man, if you have anything to say, you just happen to be listening." Zhu Yuanzhang said this, making it clear that you love to say it or not, anyway, you Jingyan will not avoid it.
"The minister received a copy of the joint impeachment of Liu Bowen in the imperial history by the 12 civil and military officials, and presented it to the emperor." Li Shanchang had no choice but to come up with this recital.
"Oh." Zhu Yuanzhang agreed, and began to read carefully in front of Li Shanchang.
After a while, he handed over this recital to You Jingyan on the side.
In the joint compromise, it is nothing more than the incident that You Jingyan had predicted a long time ago, saying that Liu Bowen killed people under the altar of praying for rain and angered the dragon king rain god, which led to a great drought in the Central Plains, and what did the people of the Central Plains now have discussed the murder of Liu Bowen at the altar.
said a lot of things freely, nothing more than disposing of Liu Bowen to set an example.
Due to You Jingyan's foresight, the evidence of Li Shanchang's favor and Li Bin was photographed in front of Zhu Yuanzhang early, and Li Shanchang's framing easily folded himself.
I saw Zhu Yuanzhang cast an unfathomable smile at Li Shanchang and asked, "How does the good chief think I should deal with this matter?" ā
"As we all know, the relationship between Li Bin and the minister is extraordinary, and the minister should avoid suspicion in this matter, and the emperor has no opinion on how to deal with the minister." Li Shanchang actually took the initiative to find out the relationship with Li Bin.
Ay! This old loach is too cunning.
You Jingyan is clear who it is, can he let this loach slip out of his hands like this? The answer, of course, is obvious: no.
"Respectfully, you have also read the folds, do you have any opinions?" Zhu Yuanzhang threw the question to You Jingyan again.
That posture is clearly a fisherman, and You Jingyan and Li Shanchang are the two stupid snipews and mussels.
"The minister thinks that it is difficult to distinguish who is right and who is wrong in such a mysterious and mysterious thing as praying for rain, so it is better to call Lord Liu over and see how he explains the reason why it has not rained in the Central Plains for nearly a month."
You Jingyan threw the question on Zhu Yuanzhang again.
This question is not good for Zhu Yuanzhang if you say it to anyone.
Although You Jingyan was ordered by Zhu Yuanzhang to act among the courtiers, everyone knows that You Jingyan and Liu Bowen are still closer than other courtiers.
Therefore, if You Jingyan speaks to Liu Bowen, Zhu Yuanzhang will inevitably suspect that You Jingyan and Liu Bowen have some unsavory relationship in private.
If you talk to Li Shanchang, it will be even more impossible, Zhu Yuanzhang will think that you just said a lot of bad things about Li Shanchang, and now you are talking to him again, isn't this cowardice and fear, what is it to be double-faced?
Therefore, the best explanation is to let Liu Bowen explain it himself.
"Okay, then according to the honorific words." Zhu Yuanzhang made a decision very decisively, and shouted outside: "Go and call Liu Bowen." ā
Half an hour later, Liu Bowen walked in under the leadership of the eunuch.
"Berwyn, there has been a great drought in the Central Plains in the past month, and you preside over the annual rain prayer ceremony, so I would like to ask your opinion."
As soon as Liu Bowen came, Zhu Yuanzhang asked straight to the point.
"The wives of the deceased moved to live in other camps, numbering tens of thousands, causing a gloomy mood. After the death of the craftsman, the carrion remains were exposed, and the minister suggested that the surrendered military officials be incorporated into the military household, which would be enough to harmonize the yin and yang qi. ā
"So that there will be rain?" Zhu Yuanzhang asked again, and after receiving Liu Bowen's affirmative answer, he instructed Li Shanchang: "Shanchang, wait for the thing you said in advance, you can finish it according to Berwen's opinion first." ā
"Alright, you all go down first." Zhu Yuanzhang waved his hand and sent them all out, it seems that Zhu Yuanzhang is indeed eager to deal with the backlog of twists and turns.
Ten days have passed, and every day the sun is still not raining at all.
That night, You Jingyan was called to the palace by someone sent by Zhu Yuanzhang before he finished eating.
When You Jingyan arrived, Li Shanchang and Liu Bowen had already arrived.
I saw Liu Bowen kneeling there with a solemn expression, although Li Shanchang on the side also had a solemn expression on his face, no matter how he looked at it, it was a little false, and Zhu Yuanzhang in front of the desk was furious and wanted to tear someone apart, Zhu Biao stood beside Zhu Yuanzhang full of worry.
In front of Liu Bowen, there were dozens of pieces scattered messily.
"Alright, forbidden." As soon as he saw Zhu Yuanzhang You's respectful words, he was about to salute, but he only heard Zhu Yuanzhang say: "You look at those twists and turns first." ā
