After the whole family knew that there was another income, they were so happy that they couldn't open their mouths from ear to ear.

At this time, Liu Yongchang's wife said: "Ms. sir, do you need to go and tell your second uncle first and ask them to clean up the brothel?"

That's right, Liu Yongchang's master is his wife's second uncle.

It was because he went there to learn the trade that he met his wife.

When Liu Yongchang heard this, he looked at his wife and said, "No, what Rou girl wants to see must be a brothel that you can usually see. If you go over and send someone to inform her, that's a lie."

When Liu Yongchang's wife heard this, she looked at her husband blankly, with a flash of shock in her eyes.

Seeing her daughter-in-law's behavior, Grandma Liu rolled her eyes at Liu Yongchang and said, "What nonsense are you talking about?"

After speaking, he looked at the eldest daughter-in-law and said, "Mei Niang, don't listen to the nonsense he said.

But I still have to listen to Chang'er on this matter. I understand Rou Yatou's temperament, and I think she must have gone there to see what a normal brothel is like.

We notify you in advance. If something goes wrong later, it will be very difficult for us to step in. "

When Mei Niang heard this, she understood what her mother-in-law meant. Thinking of her second uncle's clean-minded nature, she nodded and said nothing more.

When Li Sirou returned home, she also told Mrs. Li about this matter and wanted to inquire about this person's character first.

When Mrs. Li heard that it was Liu Yongchang's master, she laughed, looked at Li Sirou and said, "In a moment, take Leng Yi and Han Xiang with you and go and see for yourself.

I can teach a person like you Aunt Mei that her character cannot be bad. Don’t worry about that. For the rest, you have to see for yourself. "

Li Sirou nodded and waited at home for Liu Yongchang to call her.

After a while, Liu Yongchang came. After Li Sirou heard this, he took Leng Yi and Han Xiang out and went out.

When he arrived at the entrance of the village, he picked up the village chief, and then started heading towards the next village.

But she didn't know that a dispute was going on over her in the court hall in Beijing.

After the emperor received a letter from Gu Chenrui urging him to quickly give Li Sirou an identity, he sent someone to the Agriculture Department to inquire about this year's autumn harvest.

After learning that this year's output was three times that of previous years, the emperor was so happy that he could hardly sleep, and was ready to popularize this method directly.

I mentioned this matter when I went to court in the morning. At first, it was okay, but when the emperor asked everyone to think about what reward to give Li Sirou, conflicts arose.

The emperor was angry when he saw the court making a fuss because he said he wanted to be given the status of a princess.

"Shut up, everyone."

As soon as these words came out, the court fell silent for an instant, and the two people who were arguing just now were so frightened that they fell silent for an instant.

The emperor looked at the people below, took a deep breath, and said coldly: "I ask you to be polite, but you have been opposing my decision, that is, you are not afraid of death."

After saying that, he glanced at the frightened official whose head hit the ground and said, "Drag him down and hit him fifty times."

As soon as these words came out, some of the people below were happy and some were sad. Looking at the man who had always opposed the granting of status, the emotions on his face were too complicated.

The official raised his head secretly and glanced at Prime Minister Chu. Seeing his eyes, he raised his head and looked at the emperor, pleading: "Your Majesty, please think twice. This woman is not a member of the clan. Give her the title of princess." It’s really unseemly for my status.”

Seeing the eye contact between him and Prime Minister Chu, the emperor laughed angrily, looked at the official, and said coldly: "Zhong Qing, do you think it is unseemly to give a commoner the status of a princess, or do you think... Isn’t an ordinary citizen worthy of this status?”

Before he could speak, the emperor continued: "If I remember correctly, you changed from a lowly status to a good status, and then entered the Agriculture Department through recommendation, right?

If you think about it this way, you are not worthy of this status. "

After saying that, he looked at his father-in-law beside him and said, "I decree that Zhong Wen will do nothing in his position and conceal the actual output of the autumn harvest. He will be dragged out and beaten with fifty sticks, and he will be demoted and exiled to Fengyugang.

Send someone to find out who introduced him to the Agriculture Department in the first place. He was demoted one level and fined half a year's salary. "

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the court was shocked. They all knelt down and begged the emperor to calm down.

The emperor looked at the minister's face and said coldly: "This year's autumn harvest, one acre of land is almost 1,500 jins, and this Zhong Wencheng told me it is 1,000 jins."

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at Zhong Wen in shock. Even Zhong Wen was immediately stunned.

There were only a few people who experienced this matter. Who was it that leaked it?

Seeing him like that, the emperor didn't want to see him at all, so he waved his hand and asked someone to take him down.

After seeing the people leave, the emperor looked at the people below and said, "Do you, who else, object to my decision?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone lowered their heads and did not dare to make any sound.

When Chu Cheng saw that no one was talking, he stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, it may be difficult to convince everyone if you give a commoner the status of a princess."

The emperor looked at the person in front of him and was about to speak when he heard his father's voice coming from outside the palace.

"Chu Aiqing is right, Lin'er, this won't convince everyone."

When the emperor saw the Supreme Emperor, he was surprised and said: "Father, why are you here?"

The Supreme Emperor looked at his son and laughed, "I thought that the emperor had already gone to court, so I came here. I never thought that it would be so late today and I still hadn't finished speaking."

The Supreme Emperor walked up to the Emperor, looked at the people below, and said, "I have heard all about what you are arguing about.

Prime Minister Chu is right, such a reward is really not convincing to the public. "

After saying that, he looked at the emperor and said with a smile: "Your Majesty, how about asking my father to give you this reward?"

The emperor didn't know the emperor's plan, but he still nodded.

Just when Prime Minister Chu thought that the Supreme Emperor was on the same side as him, the Supreme Emperor said: "Give Li Sirou the title of Princess Zhaoyue, with an annual salary of 800 taels, three boxes of Lingluo silk and satin, and a thousand acres of fertile land."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked. This reward from the Supreme Emperor was much heavier than the Emperor's.

Prime Minister Chu also looked at the Supreme Emperor in shock, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The Supreme Emperor looked at the expressions on the faces of the people below and sneered: "Why, do you have the ability to double the grain production?

If it weren't for the fact that she is a woman, there is no precedent for a woman to become an official in this dynasty, and she would be one of you now. "

As soon as these words came out, all the officials lowered their heads, not daring to look at the Supreme Emperor at all.

The emperor looked at his father in front of him. At this moment, the mighty father in his memory came back again.

The Supreme Emperor did not notice the emperor's expression, but continued to look at the people below and said coldly: "Which of you can do this, I will upgrade you to three levels in a row."

After saying that, he looked at Prime Minister Chu, "Chu Aiqing, do you think so?"
