I'm playing tricks in Daqin

"Oh?"

Yang Wenyi, who was slightly tired, put the memorial in his hand on the table, his face was a little haggard, "What is he here for? Tell him, I'm tired, so I won't see you."

"This……"

Yang Wenyi's personal manager showed embarrassment, "Zou Yuntao said that if His Majesty doesn't see you, he will be waiting outside the hall."

When Yang Wenyi heard this, he slapped his palm on the table casually, "I'm so annoying! Let him in."

After a while, Zou Yuntao came to Yang Wenyi and saw him leaning on the dragon chair, so he asked with concern: "Your Majesty, are you feeling unwell?"

Yang Wenyi waved his hand, and said listlessly: "I was a little tired from reviewing the memorials just now, so tell me, what are you talking about?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zou Yuntao knelt on the ground with a "boom", "Your Majesty, I risked my life to admonish you today, and I hope that your majesty will stop being superstitious about legends like pills, these are all nonsense. "

As soon as the elixir was mentioned, Yang Wenyi suddenly regained his spirits, and his originally gloomy face suddenly became brighter, "What is the meaning of Aiqing, the elixir is a magic medicine, you have never seen it before, so you don't understand the mystery of it .”

Zou Yuntao sighed deeply, "Your Majesty, you hang out with those Taoist priests all day long, you don't care about political affairs, you don't care about the life and death of the common people, and you sacrificed so many lives for nothing..."

Just halfway through speaking, Yang Wenyi angrily threw the memorial on the table at Zou Yuntao.

"You bastard, thank you for taking care of you like this on weekdays, just now my eyes were sore from reading the memorial, why don't you care about the common people?"

Zou Yuntao had no intention of seeing the memorials scattered on the ground, he saw that all of them were the ways to obtain panacea recommended by treacherous ministers to Yang Wenyi, and he didn't read or care about the rest of the business.

"Your Majesty, there is no magic medicine for immortality in this world, and the so-called life-prolonging pill is nothing but a trick to deceive the world. I heard that dozens of people died on the cliff a few days ago because they were looking for these medicinal materials. Now everyone is panicked, if this continues..."

Seeing Zou Yuntao's despondent look, Yang Wenyi suddenly gave a wicked smile, and then, ignoring the courtesy of a monarch and his ministers, he took Zou Yuntao's hand and walked to his secret compartment containing the elixir, and patiently explained to him.

"Don't listen to the wind and the rain. Let me tell you. I had a dream some time ago. I dreamed that a white dragon with silver light was sitting on my bedside, and then spit out a golden pill. After I swallowed it, I immediately Back when I was young, I felt refreshed when I woke up.

The master said, this is a hint from heaven to me, I am not a fool, I will consider what they say, I would rather believe it or not, since I took the elixir, I feel that my body is gradually improving. "

"This is all an illusion. I have heard that the Taoist priest is a liar. He is idle all day long. He does not hesitate to take the lives of innocent people for his own pleasure and wealth."

Seeing that Yang Wenyi was silent, Zou Yuntao continued: "Your Majesty, every time you say you want to find medicine, they will grab dozens of strong men from the people and go into the mountain. Every time they come back, less than three or five people come back. So many people died in the mountains. On the way to find medicine, why bother?"

"The master said that as long as he can find one flavor, he will be able to help me find a similar formula in the future, and then I won't have to do this. Don't worry, I'm not that stupid king, and I will weigh it myself."

Zou Yuntao said dissatisfied: "Now you don't ask and don't care about the affairs of the court. You let the traitors in the court rule, and now the court is also full of smoke. If this continues, it will lead to disaster sooner or later."

"Ai Qing is worrying too much. Although I am a little lax today, everything in this court is under my control, so there is no need to make such a fuss."

The purpose of coming here today was to persuade Yang Wenyi, but Zou Yuntao simply went all out.

"A few days ago, I heard that several ministers spoke to you, but they were all dismissed from their official posts and sent home. Today, the minister is also taking the risk of being disrespectful. You should accept the opinions of virtuous ministers and stay away from those villains. .”

Hearing Zou Yuntao's words, Yang Wenyi was a little unhappy. Although he knew that Zou Yuntao was doing it for his own good, he just couldn't listen to it. He only heard a "pop", and Yang Wenyi threw the teacup on Zou Yuntao's body directly.

The guards in charge of guarding outside the hall rushed in one after another after hearing the movement. Seeing that Zou Yuntao was kneeling on the ground, there was nothing unusual, and they left after making sure again and again.

Chapter 690

"I warn you, don't think that you want to open a dyeing workshop just by giving you some color,"

Yang Wenyi poked Zou Yuntao's forehead with his finger, gritted his teeth and said, "I have my own reasons for all this, and it's not your turn to teach me a lesson."

"Since Your Majesty knows it well, can you tell me when I can stop taking this elixir?"

"I'm just trying the efficacy of the elixir. As you can see, I'm in a good mood now. It's clear that the elixir has worked. Since ancient times, many emperors have been looking for the elixir of immortality. Maybe I can find it. arrive."

Zou Yuntao smiled disdainfully when he heard the words. In his eyes, Yang Wenyi was already insane at the moment. He thought he could still listen to his words, but he didn't expect to be so stubborn.

"You are the emperor, the dragon body is important, it's not just a joke."

"If Aiqing has nothing to do, then step down, I'm tired."

Yang Wenyi didn't want to continue discussing this matter with Zou Yuntao, so he found a reason to dismiss him casually, so as not to be an eyesore here, but Zou Yuntao had a very temper, if he didn't succeed in persuading him today, he would not give up.

"I have something else to say, but before that, I advise you to think carefully about the elixir. After all, this is not a panacea, it is all a lie. If your majesty takes it seriously, later generations will definitely say that you are stupid. No way, no way to distinguish right from wrong.”

"presumptuous!"

When Yang Wenyi got angry, the eunuchs and maids around knelt on the ground, "Don't think that I dare not do anything to you, if you keep talking, don't blame me for being merciless."

The more this is the case, the more Zou Yuntao admits to death.

"Even if I killed the minister today, I have a clear conscience. If the death of the minister can make His Majesty repent, then the minister deserves to die!"

"You have a clear conscience? Well, let me ask you, if you go to Qin as an envoy, will you gain anything?"

Zou Yuntao didn't know why Yang Wenyi suddenly asked about this matter, so he could only reply: "I have informed Your Majesty that Qin's monarch and ministers are arrogant and rude. On official business, this mission has returned without success.”

"Hehe, arrogant and rude? But how did I hear that the Qin people are very enthusiastic about you, taking you to eat, drink and have fun every day, and when they leave, they even prepare six carriages full of gifts for you. They are really enthusiastic about you. "

"Your Majesty, the people of Qin prepared gifts for the ministers, but the ministers did not accept those gifts, and asked them to take them back."

Zou Yuntao hurriedly explained.

"The gift on the surface was sent back, who knows how many good things were sent to you behind the scenes? Since you didn't discuss any official business, why did you stay in Qin for so long? What collusion did you have with the Qin people? What else do you have? Face in front of me and say that you have a clear conscience? And let me wake up? I think you should wake up."

Zou Yuntao's high-level reception in Qin State, and Qin people's extraordinary enthusiasm for him, have long made Yang Wenyi suspicious. These words have been hidden in Yang Wenyi's heart, and people secretly investigated Zou Yuntao. Blunted it all.

Hearing Yang Wenyi's reprimand, Zou Yuntao couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat. At this moment, he finally understood. No wonder the Daqin officials were so enthusiastic about him. Once he said he wanted to leave, he tried his best to keep him.

"Your Majesty! This is all Qin people's plan to alienate us! They just want to use this method to make us monarchs and ministers believe, Your Majesty, don't fall for Qin people's treacherous tricks!"

"A treacherous plot by the people of Qin in my heart? Hehe, in your eyes, am I the master of incompetence?"

Zou Yuntao, who possessed his own talent, was always proud, but now he was plotted by the people of Qin. He became angry from embarrassment, and retorted: "If you can't tell right from wrong, what is it if you are not a fool?"

"You, how dare you say that to me! You bastard!"

After finishing speaking, Yang Wenyi, who was furious, suddenly pulled out his sword and was about to stab Zou Yuntao, but was stopped by the eunuch next to him, "Your Majesty, please calm down, Zou Yuntao is also wholeheartedly for your own good, if you kill him, I'm afraid it will chill the hearts of others."

Reluctantly throwing away the treasured sword, Yang Wenyi couldn't tolerate Zou Yuntao's unscrupulous contradicting him, "I will spare your life today, and I tell you, I know what you said, I am not a fool, and it is not up to you to tell me what to do." Give me some pointers, come and put Zou Yuntao in prison for me, and no one will let him out without my order.

Give me a strict investigation to see if he has defected to Qin!Strict investigation! "

After speaking, a team of guards outside the hall took Zou Yuntao down.

The news that Zou Yuntao provoked the emperor and was thrown into the prison quickly spread throughout the government and the public. Everyone sighed, but the officials were celebrating with each other.

In the muddy court, Zou Yuntao, who is upright and upright, has long been a thorn in the eyes of the officials, and now he is thrown into the prison. In their view, it is Zou Yuntao's "retribution".

As for whether Zou Yuntao colluded with the Qin people, it didn't matter at all. The Chu emperor had already set the tone, and Zou Yuntao provoked the officials of the Manchu Dynasty again. His "crime" was already confirmed.

After getting the first-hand information from the prince's mansion of Chu State, Zhu Xufeng also wrote down the information, and asked people to secretly send it back to Daqin as quickly as possible.

After the preparation of the orphanage was handed over to Ma Minjun, Li Wei began to visit privately in the city.

The literary style of the former Tang Dynasty was at its peak, and Jinghuai County was the capital of the country in the past. Among the imperial examinations, the proportion of students who passed the imperial examination in the hometown of the former Tang Dynasty was far higher than that of other regions.

Before he finished walking down a street, he saw three bookstores, and even Li Wei, who was usually too lazy to read, couldn't help but walk into a bookstore.

After Li Deping collected the book money from customers at the counter, he heard noises in the bookstore and felt that the situation was not good, so he went to check immediately to see what was going on.

He searched in the direction of the sound. Among the many tall bookshelves, he found someone tearing up books and hurriedly stopped them.

"What are you doing! Stop it,"

"Huh? Who are you? What do you do? Why do you care about me? What fourth uncle? I don't know you, and I'm not your fourth uncle!"

The man turned around and said with a smile.

"I'm talking about tearing up books! You can't tear up books! These books are going to be sold out! How can you sell them out after tearing them up? No, you have to tear up these books with you!"

Li Deping began to feel anxious.

"Oh? Are you talking about these books? Why can't they be torn?"

The man held up the book in his hand and waved at Li Deping.

"I'm a bookstore here. Do you know a bookstore? It sells books. I still count on these books to support my family! You can't tear them up until you pay for them. You can only tear them up if you pay!"

"What bookstore? What is a bookstore? Whether you pay or not? I don't care, these books are mine, and the bookstore is also mine. I can tear it up as I want!"

The man ignored Li Deping completely and tore up the book on his own.

"Stop it! Stop tearing it up! How can you sell it once you tear it up?"

At this time, Li Deping also saw that the other party was behaving strangely. He might have mental problems, so he grabbed the man's hands, approached him with his body, and pressed the man on a nearby bookshelf to prevent him from moving.

The man tried his best to break free from Li Deping's control, struggling non-stop, like a rabbit falling into a pile of wolves, although he tried his best, it still had no effect.

Li Deping tried his best to subdue him, and saw two strangely dressed people who looked like lunatics coming in from the door.

When they saw the bound lunatic, they laughed at first, and then began their unscrupulous activities of tearing up books, tearing up every book they saw, completely ignoring the surprised eyes of the people around them.

They tore up books whenever they saw them, and smashed bookshelves when they saw them, like two crazy beasts. Rows of bookshelves full of books became empty in a blink of an eye, more terrifying than the lunatic just now.

The customers and shop assistants who came to buy books were all overwhelmed by the scene in front of them. No one dared to come up to stop it. Many people ran out of the bookstore quickly after seeing it.

After a while, the originally tidy bookstore completely changed its appearance, shredded books and confetti were flying all over the sky, some bookshelves had been completely disconnected from the middle, and the whole bookstore was like a chaotic garbage dump.

Li Deping was stunned for a while, and he realized that if he allowed them to go crazy like this, his bookstore would probably be completely ruined, not to mention all the books would be destroyed, and there would probably be no one to care about them in the future, not even a single customer.

Li Deping was no match for these two lunatics at all. He was pushed back by the two just as he went up. He couldn't even get in. There was no way to stop these two lunatics from destroying the bookstore.

In desperation, Li Deping prepared to report to the police and asked the store clerk to go to the street to find the police.

At this time, Hu Guangqi entered the bookstore leisurely, and seeing the messy scene in front of him, he couldn't help but feel secretly refreshed, knowing that his goal had been achieved.

He thought to himself that his method was really good. It was really satisfying to make Li Deping's bookstore into such a mess. Now he can only sell the bookstore to himself.

Although the scheme was good, he couldn't admit it directly. Hu Guangqi knew that Li Deping didn't know that he was the mastermind of this incident, so he decided to pretend that he came to buy books by the way, and he didn't know this happened.

On the surface, he wanted to pretend to be ignorant, and asked in a surprised tone, "Ah! What's wrong? How did your bookstore become like this? Wasn't it fine yesterday?"

"How did the good bookstore become what it is now? Do you need me to help? If you want help, just ask, I will do my best!"

Hu Guangqi felt that his white face sang well!After Hu Guangqi said these words, Li Deping felt admiration for his acting skills from the bottom of his heart, "This acting skill is really superb! You can go to the Chinese opera exam!"

Li Deping secretly sulked in his heart.

When Li Deping heard Hu Guangqi's tone of voice, he originally wondered where these three lunatics came from, but now it seems that he was acting as a hindrance, deliberately trying to trick himself into selling the bookstore.

But I can't directly tear myself apart with him, so I secretly think about the countermeasures in my heart, trying to find a way to let the enemy show his feet, and use softness to overcome strength, and can't directly confront toughness.

Chapter 691

"What the hell, I don't know where the insanity came from. I tore up all my books. I didn't make any money in the first place. Now, I have to pay a lot of money for so many books!"

Li Deping secretly observed Hu Guangqi's face while talking.

"Yo Yo Yo, I told you a long time ago that the bookstore is not profitable now, you might as well sell him to me earlier, so as to reduce some losses!"

The smug look on Hu Guangqi's face could no longer be concealed.

Hu Guangqi was secretly happy. He thought that if such a thing happened, Li Deping would definitely sell the bookstore, and the price would not be very high. His plan was perfect! "If you sell this bookstore to me, wouldn't the loss be mine now? How can you bear it? You see, if you don't listen to good people, you will suffer a loss in front of you. This is a big loss!"

Hu Guangqi talked more and more vigorously.

Li Deping felt angry when he saw Hu Guangqi's villainous look on his face, and realized that Hu Guangqi had done this. He wanted to use this shameful means to let himself go and agree to sell the bookstore.

Although Li Deping was angry, he also suffered from the lack of evidence. Even if there were three lunatics as witnesses, no one would believe what the three lunatics said, so he could only knock out his teeth and swallow it in his stomach. .

So he decided to use language to influence Hu Guangqi, intending to have a theory with him, to make Hu Guangqi realize his mistake, and to understand it with emotion, hoping that he can let himself and the bookstore go.

"Look, I'm a small business here, and the bookstore is not big, so I can't make much money. If they run it like this, there will be no profit at all!"

Li Deping said tentatively.

"So, why don't you sell the bookstore to me, firstly, you can reduce the loss, and secondly, you don't have to worry so much, do you?"

Who would have thought that Hu Guangqi would be completely unrepentant, only thinking about the bookstore, making progress.

"Speaking well, do you think I don't know where these three lunatics come from? Can't you let me go, this bookstore is my painstaking effort, how can I sell it as soon as I say it?"

Li Deping was a little angry.

"Hmph! Don't want to sell? Then you can continue to guard this pile of broken books. After this incident, let's see who dares to come to you to buy books, and see how long you can hold on!"

Hu Guangqi saw Li Deping's face changed and put on airs.

"I think you are the one who recruited these three people! You are an unscrupulous villain! You have used all kinds of dirty tricks to get me to sell the bookstore. You really took great pains!"

Li Deping was furious.

He knew that his plot had been seen through, but no matter what, Hu Guangqi felt that as long as he did not admit it, there would be no evidence to prove that he did it, and these three lunatics were found by himself.

"Things can be eaten indiscriminately, but you can't say this nonsense. Be careful, I will sue you for defamation! How could I do such a thing? Don't wrong a good person!"

Seeing that his scheme was seen through, Hu Guangqi tried his best to cover it up.
