In the study, Li Dai kowtowed three times to his father, thanking him for saving his life.
Li Linfu was also quite emotional. This case had many twists and turns. He thought his son was hopeless, but unexpectedly he came back to life. Because of the concubine's intercession, he was not only exempted from the crime, but also promoted.
"The emperor pardoned you and promoted you because of your hard work over the years. It can be seen that the accumulation of official duties is very important. You must be more diligent in the future and repay the emperor for his promotion!"
"Children will remember their father's teachings in their hearts!"
Li Linfu sighed and said: "Suffering is the touchstone. You are in jail this time. Ye'er followed me and worked hard to save you. On the other hand, Yuwen and your other son added insult to injury and participated in framing you. Yuwenluo has already
The dowry will be taken away, and her marriage certificate will be returned to the Yuwen family. In addition, Li Huai may marry into the Yuwen family and change his surname to Yuwen. It’s okay if he doesn’t want this son.”
"Father, are you definitely divorced?"
Li Linfu nodded, "To be precise, the Yuwen family has separated from us, and they are probably going to join the Yang family!"
After a pause, Li Linfu said again: "If you are willing to marry Mrs. Pei, I can let her in!"
"Thank you, father!" Li Dai choked and kowtowed again.
Li Linfu nodded, "Go ahead! I'm really tired too."
"Father, please rest!"
Li Dai bowed and retreated.
In the atrium, Li Dai met his son Li Ye. He was so excited that he quickly stepped forward and said, "Ye'er, thank you for your hard work this time!"
Li Ye asked with a smile: "Did my father not be punished in prison?"
Li Dai sighed: "I was slapped a few times during the interrogation, but nothing else."
"But my father was a blessing in disguise. He was promoted to the fifth rank of doctor, right?"
Li Dai nodded, "The Doctor of the Ministry of Finance is the fifth rank, but my official rank is still from the fifth rank to the Chaosan doctor, but it is completely different when I reach the fifth rank."
"What are your plans, father?"
Li Dai sighed and said: "My biggest wish in this life is to marry your mother home. The matchmaker is getting married. I would like to ask Pei Min to go to Ganzhou and propose to your grandfather on my behalf."
Li Ye shook his head, "There is actually no point in going to Ganzhou. The key is whether my mother will agree. You should go to her medical clinic more often when you have time! As time goes by, she may change her mind."
"You're right. Madam Mu also advised me the same way. Sincerity is the key to success. Without Yuwen's constraints on me, I can give up."
Li Ye added: "One more thing, I don't plan to go to the county to learn."
Li Dai was startled, "Why?"
"Since you are not taking the imperial examination, there is no need to waste that time."
"But you are only fourteen years old and you have learned a little bit. You don't necessarily have to take the imperial examination."
Li Ye chuckled and said, "Why don't you, man, take Wu Gou and collect the fifty states in Guanshan? Please go to Lingyan Pavilion for a while, like a scholar with ten thousand households! With this poem, father, do you think I still need to study?"
Li Ye bowed, turned and left.
Li Dai was still murmuring to himself, "Why don't men take Wu Gou and collect Guanshan Fifty States?" Who wrote this? How come I have never heard of it?"
In the afternoon, several decrees came from Ouchi. First, on the grounds that Yang Shenjin was obsessed with witchcraft and had lost official ethics, he was dismissed from the post of Minister of Household Affairs and demoted to Guangzhou City Shipping Envoy, in charge of Guangzhou's overseas trade.
Second, Yang Yang, the young eunuch in the palace, was promoted to the minister of household affairs;
Third, on the grounds of insufficient evidence, Li Dai was pardoned and promoted to the rank of doctor in the household department, in charge of the financial department, and at the same time promoted to court official.
Fourth, move the Fengzhou and Luo tribes to Youzhou and order the Ministry of War to implement it as soon as possible.
After seeing these decrees, all the officials in the imperial court understood that this must be a secret agreement between the Holy Emperor and Li Linfu.
Mrs. Guo Guo was quite proud that her pillow wind was a success.
While drinking tea, she listened to the maid describing Yang Guozhong's situation.
"I have never seen Third Master lose his temper like that. He threw all the teacups and teapots on the table, jumped up and started crying and scolding."
"Why is he scolding and crying?"
"He scolded his wife for being ruthless and unjust, and cried that he had worked hard like a dog, and in the end he had no bones left. Others did everything, so he took away the Minister of Tohoku."
Mrs. Guo Guo said coldly: "It seems that he has no reflection. Go and tell him where the second-level polo player he invited is? Yang Hao is no longer useful, but at least he didn't treat me as a fool!"
"Slave, please obey!"
The maid gave a blessing gift and hurried away.
At this time, the housekeeper said at the door: "Madam Qi, Master Shi brought Absi Jiedushi to ask for an audience, saying that he and Madam made an appointment!"
Mrs. Guo Guo nodded, "Take them to the guest room to wait for a while!"
Arbus was holding a counter note worth 50,000 yuan in his hand. He was a little worried and asked: "Is it too little for Mrs. Guo Guo?"
Shi Jingzhong smiled and said: "Generally, the money required to get an official position is only a few thousand guan, and 50,000 guan is already a lot. If it is too little, she will set a price herself."
"The price she offered, can I make a counter-offer?"
Shi Jingzhong shook his head, "This lady is quite arrogant, and she always speaks the truth. She never gives a counter-offer to the price she offers. Someone who counter-offered was kicked out of the house directly."
"But she is not a noble concubine. What ability does she have to influence the emperor? If she cannot do it, will it be nothing but a bamboo basket?"
"I can't guarantee this humble position!"
"Has there ever been anything that she couldn't do with money?" Arbus asked worriedly.
"Indeed, as far as I know, there are four or five times. The Yang family is powerful, but it does not cover the sky with one hand. For example, it involves the interests of the Guanlong Group, the prince, and major military and national decisions. In the future, it may be possible, but
Now they are still a little powerless, but as the saying goes, since they are here, they have to give it a try."
At this time, there was a clear ringing sound outside, and a large group of maids and maids walked in surrounded by a noble lady.
Shi Jingzhong quickly gave Albus a hand, and Albus stood up and saluted, "See you, madam!"
Yang Yupei sat down at the main seat, waved his hand and said: "Please sit down, both of you!"
Yang Yupei said impatiently: "I am about to enter the palace. General Albus, please tell me, what are your requests?"
Absi said quickly: "Reporting to Madam, I beg Madam to persuade the Emperor to withdraw the decree to move the Tongluo tribe to Youzhou and allow us to continue to stay in Fengzhou, Hetao."
Yang Yupei frowned slightly, "The Emperor has already issued an edict?"
Absi said vaguely: "I heard it is!"
Yang Yupei took a sip of tea and said slowly: "You also know Jun Wuxi, since the emperor has already decided, or even issued an edict, it is very difficult to change it. Albus, do you understand what I mean?"
Yang Yupei only said that it is very difficult, not that it is impossible. The implication is that the price is too low.
How could Absi not understand? He quickly handed over the counter ticket respectfully, but Yang Yupei did not accept it. He glanced at the amount on it and said coldly: "General Absi regards me as a beggar!"
Arbus was shocked. Fifty thousand dollars would be enough to send the beggar away. How much did she want?
"I wonder how much Madam thinks is appropriate?"
Yang Yupei smiled lightly and said: "I am more afraid of the cold in winter. I really like old sheepskins from the grassland, old sheepskins that are more than five years old. If possible, General Abusi can get some for me!"
This is too easy. Albus said quickly: "How about I cover all the rooms in Madam's house with sheepskins?"
"How many do you need to cover it completely?"
"At least several thousand are enough!"
Yang Yupei laughed wildly. She suddenly stopped laughing and said, "General Absi, this is not how the joke is played."
"How much does the lady want?"
Yang Yupei stretched out two jade-onion-like fingers, and Absi frowned, "Madam, you want 20,000 pieces?"
Yang Yupei shook his head, "I want two hundred thousand!"
Shi Jingzhong next to him was so frightened that he almost fell down. The market price of that kind of old sheepskin is five guan, or 200,000 yuan. Doesn't it cost one million guan?
Absi also took a breath of air. The old sheepskins that Mrs. Guo wanted were also treasures for the Tongluo tribe. You must know that their own inventory is less than 30,000 pieces. Even if he can go to the grassland to collect 200,000 old sheepskins,
First of all, you need the financial resources, and secondly, you need time. In at least one or two years, the day lilies will be cold.
"Madam, is thirty thousand tickets okay?"
Yang Yupei said with a face full of displeasure: "You can give one hundred thousand first, and the remaining one hundred thousand will be made up within half a year, but I'm going to talk ugly ahead of you and try to use ordinary sheepskin to fool me, so the final result will be counterproductive!"
Coming out of Mrs. Guo's house, Abusi looked up to the sky and sighed, "God wants to kill me, what can I do?"
"Jiedushi, why don't you think of other ways!"
Absi shook his head, "Actually, Mrs. Guo Guo is right. Jun Wuxi said, I still want to overturn something that the emperor has already decided. How is it possible?"
"Then what should we do?"
Absi narrowed his eyes and said with a fierce look: "If the fish doesn't want to die, then the net will have to break!"
