Chapter 504 You are indeed a bastard! (Seeking the moon
Faced with being treated in the same way as others, Li You spent the whole day in the government office thinking hard about how to solve the problem.
The invisible person behind the scenes could mobilize certain forces in the Shuntian Prefecture and the Metropolitan Procuratorate to create a situation in which Li You was afraid of Li You and would not accept the lawsuit, and pushed the situation to Denwen. His power was obviously extremely great. To this extent, it was impossible to
The characters related to the Lu family are almost ready to be revealed.
This Denwen Drum incident formed a complete and self-supporting evidence chain from beginning to end. Of course, it was also a closed internal loop directed and acted by the mastermind behind it. The final result was to make Li You hostile to him.
The Ministry of Punishment came to hear the matter, and then based on this legal and reasonable procedure, the purpose of rectifying Li You was achieved.
The plot directed by the other party is very reasonable for others to see, and it has gained a foothold in public opinion. As the saying goes, being reasonable can be done all over the world, but being unreasonable is difficult. Now he, Li You, has become the unreasonable one. In other words, being unreasonable is not the key.
, but the other party is more powerful than him and has created "reason". This is the key.
What will be the consequences of this matter being manipulated by a thoughtful person with a bachelor's degree in the pavilion? According to the Ming Dynasty Law, he may be demoted to a idle official position for abusing his power and bending the law for personal gain...
If the above situation really happened, people who didn't know the truth would probably praise the sage of the imperial court. Thousands of years later, it might be written into an article as a case of Jinghe Dynasty's strict legal system, with the sentence "Princes who break the law are guilty of the same crime as the common people."
But when the officials in the capital in the 9th year of Jinghe heard this, they would only think it was ridiculous - just two women and children went to beat the drum once, and then the invincible Master Li was pulled down?
This is legal but unreasonable!
However, absurdity does not mean strange. There are not many absurd things in temples, so it is not worthy of surprise. What's more, Mr. Li was punished. It was strictly in accordance with the laws of the Ming Dynasty, and it was written down in the history of the Qing Dynasty.
The deeper he thought about it, the more Li You became filled with emotion. The person who did this was simply plagiarizing his ideas!
He is good at building momentum and is good at taking advantage of it. If someone with more power tries to imitate his behavior, the effect of the momentum will be even stronger, which is worth worrying about. I don’t know how many resources a bachelor can draw on.
How many times his.
Master Cui heard about the incident. He went to the host hall worriedly and asked, "Should we release the prisoner named Lu first?"
"What's the use of letting him go now? It makes him feel guilty, so he should continue to be detained for now!" Mr. Li's attitude was very tough.
Speaking of which, he was careless, but his original intention was to wait and see what happens. Waiting for the Lu family to come to see what happens. But the Lu family has been indifferent to Lu Shangzhi these days, so he should be suspicious. Lu Shangzhi is the same after all.
The eldest son, there is no reason to let him be locked up in prison.
Logically speaking, the Lu family has two ways to save people. The first is to take the lower-level route and rely on connections to find him and ask for personal favors. Say soft words and pay for some favors; the second is to take the upper-level route and find his own backers.
, and then through Mr. Lu Ge, I greeted him and let him go.
As a result, there was no movement from the Lu family. It should have been worth pondering, but unfortunately Li You has been focusing on the Ministry of Justice and the five subordinates, the Military and Horse Division, these days. He has no energy to distract himself from thinking about the Lu family.
In the end, Mr. Li sighed. Although he had an idea, he still had to ask the eldest princess. Looking at the entire capital, among the people he knew well, only Guide Qiantose could help.
While it was still daylight, Mr. Li dressed lightly and hurriedly left the government office and headed to the residence of the Prince Consort of Guide in the east of the imperial city to visit his "friend" Prince Consort Lin.
Lin's consort happened to be there, so the two of them had to sit in the study, looking at each other tacitly, silently. Naturally, someone went to inform Princess Guide, but time passed very slowly. I don't know how long it took before they heard.
News came that the eldest princess had entered the house.
After waiting for a while, Guide Qiansui entered the study room with a bright smile. He and Li You, who were familiar with each other, entered the inner room. Lin Consort continued to read outside.
The eldest princess lay awkwardly on the couch, her jade arms resting on the armrests, her cheeks supported by the backs of her hands, and she joked: "You are such a rare guest. The number of times you have come to see me can only be counted on your fingers."
"It's been very busy these days, and you don't have much time to receive guests. Coming too many will only arouse suspicion."
Guide Chitose was in a good mood today and asked proactively: "If you don't ask me for help, why don't you come to your door? I heard others talking about Deng Wengu in the palace today. You must have come here for this purpose. Could it be a plan?
I am asked to deliver a message to the Emperor, asking the Emperor to reject the petition for a joint trial of the Thirteenth Department of the Ministry of Punishment? That is not impossible."
Master Li said with a straight face: "That's not necessary! Your Majesty really has no reason to reject it. I'm afraid that it will provoke criticism from the ministers and make you undesirable! When I ask for help, I never ask others to do embarrassing things!"
According to this method, it is equivalent to using monarch power to suppress. If used by others, it will easily cause a backlash and cause trouble. At that point, he, Li You, was labeled as a lucky minister of the emperor. Perhaps this was what Princess Guide wanted to see.
arrived, but he, Li You, had to control himself.
When she heard that her lover was confident and would not accept this trick, Princess Guide knew in her heart that this man must have some conspiracy brewing. However, she was relieved and there was nothing to worry about.
She didn't ask about Li You's plans, but instead asked, "What's your intention in holding on to that man named Lu? I just think there's something in it. Under normal circumstances, you wouldn't be so procrastinating."
.”
Li You said vaguely: "That's just to make some money."
The eldest princess snorted, "Other people's purpose may be to make a fortune, just like kidnapping hostages for ransom. But I know that you are not such a superficial person, and you will not make this self-destructive mistake when a new official takes office.
, so if you have any ideas, you might as well tell me and discuss them with me in detail."
Princess Gui De knew the most about her lover's "talent" in economic matters. She had never seen similar "talent" in anyone else. Although she didn't know what her lover wanted to do, Her Majesty Chitose knew one thing.
The fact that the lover has no profit and cannot afford to go early is definitely extraordinary.
Thinking about it, he knew that if it was purely a matter of making money, he could just let his third concubine take care of it, so there would be no need for him to go to war himself.
Li You had no choice but to reply: "I heard that his family has an account bureau with a capital of several hundred thousand taels and specializes in lending and profit-making business. I plan to use it as a guarantee."
Guide Chitose concentrated his attention and asked: "Then?"
"Then... let their accounting bureau act as a guarantee and quietly open a bank account. Otherwise, no one will dare to do business when a new store opens, so we need to find a time-honored guarantee like Lu's Accounting Bureau."
Bank number? It’s a bank store where you deposit money, collect interest and issue invoices. “What’s so special about your bank number?”
"Absorb some stocks, expand the following capabilities, and then let my second-married father-in-law also open a bank account in Yangzhou. Eventually, the linkage between the north and the south will be realized, and payments can be made in different places."
Cashing money in a different place? Princess Guide is indeed a smart person, and she immediately grasped the key points.
Li You briefly explained: "It can be compared to the flying money of the former Tang Dynasty. If you are familiar with history books, you should have read it. If you want to go south, you don't need to carry a large amount of silver. You only need to deposit the money in the capital and get the money in Yangzhou with the money."
, I don’t know how much worry it saves. But the bank will charge some fees.”
The eldest princess frowned and thought deeply. She had an intuition that this was of extremely profound significance.
"Of course, this is just the beginning. As the business grows, firstly, it can slowly expand to all parts of the world; secondly, the banknotes issued by this bank account do not need to be cashed anymore, and can be used directly as cash all over the world.
You only need to carry light banknotes everywhere!”
"We can cooperate with the government. In the future, tax banks from all over the country will not have to travel thousands of miles to the capital. By using bank accounts to cash out payments in other places, tax dollars can be easily deposited into the capital's treasury. As long as the government is there, the bank accounts will not have to worry about it.
Doing business is a waste of time!"
"Also, when you have enough money in your bank account, you can lend out some money and earn interest. Especially in places like Jiangnan, where factories are everywhere and there are many maritime merchants, the demand for money is extremely strong, because both businesses require a lot of money as capital.
, you may not be able to seize business opportunities by just relying on your own accumulation. By lending money, banks not only collect interest, but also control a large number of factories, maritime merchants and related tax banks..."
Listening to Li You's description of the prospects, Guide Chitose seemed to feel that his horizons suddenly broadened and he discovered a broader new world. Compared with this, the salt industry that has been painstakingly managed is like a child's toy!
Thinking of the prospect of a national bank chain, the power brought by mastering astronomical amounts of cash, and the flow of silver like sea water... Princess Guide's eyes were shining brightly, two flushes appeared on her cheeks, she felt her heart beating violently and her breathing was slow.
Gradually it became more urgent.
She actually felt inexplicably excited, and pressed herself closely against Li You. She gasped slightly and said, "Quickly, undress for me."
The beautiful woman's love for her was really tempting. Li You, who was begging for help, couldn't help but be very interested. He served warmly and thoughtfully, and he had to ask her to do some errands later. Suddenly the two of them rolled on the couch, lusting after each other.
Start kissing and caressing skillfully.
"Wait!" A pair of naked white arms suddenly stretched out and pushed Li You's chest. The hostess of the white arms questioned: "You didn't tell me about this kind of thing earlier, but you secretly ate alone? What do you think?
?Can you hide it from me?"
How serious are you at this critical juncture? Li You straightened up slightly and said helplessly: "I didn't want to hide anything from you."
"Then how do you think about the bank account? When you do things, do you have me in your heart?"
Mr. Li had no choice but to confess: "I want to take the initiative to talk to you about the bank account, as if I am begging you to provide money and help. Wait until I open the bank first and make a profit, and you hear about it, then you will think about it."
If you get involved, then you are asking for my assistance, and the host and guest are changing positions. Considering this situation, so...it is not as good as God."
"You are indeed a bastard! If you don't work hard today, don't even think about asking me to help you out of trouble!" Guide Chitose could only curse and put her arms around the man's back again. (To be continued. If you like this movie
