The rude four princes of Li Tian only symbolically reprimanded him, and did not really blame him, because Li Tian actually said what he thought in his heart! It's just that he is the grandson-in-law of Ye Taifu after all, and he can't say some things Li Tian said. Vertex updates are the fastest
"By the way, Your Highness, did you suddenly come to me for something?" asked Li Tiantian when he came back to his senses.
If Li Tiantian didn't ask the fourth prince to really forget, he hurriedly said: "There is a big drought in Fengjin County, and the imperial court wants to send relief food, and my father said that he will leave this matter to me to deal with, how much do you think is appropriate?"
Unexpectedly, after listening to what the four princes said, Li Tiantian gritted his teeth and scolded: "It's Fengjin County again! This county is now like a rotten tree, crawling with moths! Fengjin County is not greedy from the county guard to the catch! Now the drought in Fengjin County is probably inseparable from this group of corrupt officials and corrupt officials! Even if the imperial court pays food, I don't know how many of them will fall into the hands of the victims in the end! This group of bastards only knows the common people all day long, and they can't show any political achievements, and when they encounter a disaster, they ask the court for help, I really want to cut this group of people with a thousand knives!"
After hearing this, the fourth prince also let out a long sigh, and said with helplessness in his tone: "Then what can be done? The county guard of Fengjin County is my imperial brother's father-in-law, who dares to manage it in the imperial court under the banner of my imperial brother? Those who have the ability have no courage, and those who have courage have no ability, if I don't say well, if my imperial brother becomes the prince, won't he invite disaster for himself? Fengjin County has sent three county supervisors back and forth, and who one dares to report it truthfully? These three county eunuchs all made a lot of money in Fengjin County, and then said good words to the heinous county guard!" The fourth prince spit out the unhappiness in his heart, and then said: "Talent, let's talk about these corrupt officials in the future, and the top priority now is how much food and salary to be allocated to Fengjin County! If there is too much allocation, these corrupt officials will become even more corrupt, and they will be even more greedy! If there is less stripping, how much will the victims of the disaster get?"
Li Tiantian shuddered and scolded: "Wouldn't these brutes be greedy if they don't allocate a lot? Even if the imperial court allocates a hundred taels of silver, they will still be greedy! Every time Fengjin County provides disaster relief, the imperial court allocates 10,000 taels of silver, and in the end, if there are 1,000 taels in the hands of the victims, they will be extrajudicially gracious! If you want me to say, one of the county guards, county lieutenants, and county supervisors of Fengjin County will come out and raid the house, and the silver copied out will definitely be enough for the people of Fengjin County!"
"If I can copy it, I will pick one? I will copy it all directly, and not a single official of Fengjin County will be left!" The four princes were also bitter.
The two of them looked at each other and fell silent, Rao is extremely smart and talented people can't think of a good way to deal with this group of corrupt officials.
"Your Highness, is this matter urgent, how long has Your Majesty given you?" asked Li Tiantian
Road.
The fourth prince hesitated for a moment and said, "It's urgent to say it's urgent, and it's not urgent to say it's not urgent." However, my father gave me seven days to deal with this matter, and I had a decree from my father, and it only took half a day to go to the household department to receive the silver, and it would only take two days to transport the disaster relief silver to Fengjin County, so it was definitely more than enough time. ”
Li Tiantian touched his chin and pondered, and after a while, his eyes rolled and said, "Your Highness, let's go and meet him together! We can't inquire about his whereabouts, but Mrs. Ye must know who he is!"
As soon as Li Tiantian finished speaking, he understood what he meant, and said with a smile: "What do you mean, let's see if the person who can write "Confucianism" is really a talent for governing the country or a general person who can only talk on paper!"
Li Tiantian nodded with a smile, and the fourth prince also smiled, and said to Li Tiantian: "Okay, then let's kill two birds with one stone, you wait for me to change clothes, let's go to find Mrs. Ye, I also want to know where this person is sacred!"
An hour later, an ordinary carriage stopped in front of the door of Ye Mansion, which is one of the largest families in Tianluo City, and the people who are qualified to come to the door on weekdays are either rich or expensive. These people are not hugging each other when they travel, and they carry a sedan chair out of the house. Under normal circumstances, a carriage that ordinary people can sit in like this will not appear in front of the Ye Mansion, but there are always exceptions to everything. The maids and servants of the Ye Mansion all know their new aunt, and His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince of the Tongtian Empire likes to go out in an ordinary carriage, and this carriage is also known to all the people in the Ye Mansion.
When the servants in front of the Ye Mansion saw this carriage, they hurriedly stepped forward and knelt down to salute, because they all knew that it was not only their uncle who was sitting in this carriage, but also His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince!
Li Tiantian and the four princes jumped out of the carriage, looked at the Ye Mansion in front of them without any scruples, and walked in without any scruples, obviously the two of them had come to this place before, and now they are familiar with the road.
The two went straight to the backyard of Ye's mansion, because Mrs. Ye's study was there, and Mrs. Ye must be in the study at the moment.
Walked through the garden to the door of the study, the door was closed, Li Tiantian reached out and knocked on the door and said with a smile: "Taifu, we came to see you again, are you in the study?"
After Li Tiantian finished speaking, there was no movement in the study, if ordinary people saw this, they would definitely think that there was no one in the room, and turned to leave. But the two of them had no idea of leaving, and they stood silently in front of the door without making a sound.
After a long time, a sigh sounded in the study,
I heard the man in the house say in a loud voice: "What are you two rabbit cubs doing standing stupidly at the door? Why don't you come in quickly? Why don't you wait for the old man to go out and invite you?"
The two smiled and pushed open the door and walked in, Li Tian put the wine jar in his hand in front of Mrs. Ye and said with a smile: "Mrs. Ye, we don't miss you here, so we brought a pot of bamboo Ye Qing to visit you!"
Mrs. Ye put down the pen in his hand and snorted coldly, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why do you always come to me with Jing Hong! When can Jing Hong come back with Zi Ning, I haven't seen my granddaughter for a while!"
Li Tiantian hurriedly smiled and said: "Don't be angry, Mrs. Ye, next time! I will definitely not come next time, let the fourth prince bring the princess and concubine here, your family is happy, and I am not comfortable staying here as an outsider." ”
Mrs. Ye glanced at Li Tiantian disdainfully and said, "Come on, Li boy, if I believe your words, I will be in this temple for decades! When will you be able to tell the truth? I'm really afraid that Jing Hong may be sold by you one day and count the silver for you!"
Li Tiantian didn't answer Mrs. Ye's words, looked down at the rice paper in front of Mrs. Ye, and couldn't help but praise: "Mrs. Ye, your handwriting is not much worse than that of a generation of grandmasters!
Ye Jingyi was still a little proud when he heard the words of Li Tiantian, after all, the person who said this is not a general person, and the calligraphy of Li Tiantian is full of praise from all over the government and the opposition as long as it is a person who learns literature! But when Ye Jingyi heard Li Tiantian's words suddenly turned, his heart also trembled. Ye Jingyi frowned and asked, "It's just what? If you have something to say, just say it, don't hide it!"
Seeing that Ye Jingyi had been successfully led astray by him, Li Tiantian couldn't help but be secretly happy in his heart, but said with a little regret on his face: "It's just that the word Taifu is written a little less domineering and more Confucian." If it's other poems, forget it, but what you wrote is clearly a poem, but a poem with a bit of Confucianism, it's a pity. ”
Ye Jingyi was about to speak but was interrupted by Li Tiantian's words, Li Tiantian continued: "But this also can't blame you, you are a scholar, you have never practiced martial arts, you have never killed anyone, you have not been on the battlefield, isn't it difficult for you to write killing intent and domineering!"
Ye Jingyi was about to open his mouth to refute, but he suddenly saw the fourth prince Jing Hong standing on the side with his head down and trembling constantly, it turned out that the fourth prince really couldn't help it, so he snickered. Ye Jingyi reacted when he saw the four princes snickering, it turned out that he had unknowingly fallen into the trap of Li Talent!
