Gu Li also knew that it was impossible for him to really kill Prince Cheng. After all, he had to ask his relatives to do things. It was not a good thing to really touch Prince Cheng and make other relatives feel insecure.Forcibly accusing the prince of treason, are the other relatives fools?The peasant uprising had just subsided, and he didn't want to cause any more trouble.

As soon as Prince Cheng was released from prison, he came to the palace to make trouble, begging Gu Liwang to forgive him.Gu Li's troubles were caused by him, and it was impossible to take back his fate. An article was published in the "Da Chu Morning News" the next day: "From the Tweeting Order, let's talk about why Zhao Song insisted on hereditary surrender" .

"Who is this Gu Yixing? He is in the limelight recently!" At the poetry meeting, scholars inevitably talked about the "Da Chu Morning News" that swept the capital recently, and speculated about who Mr. Jin Yong was. The final topic still inevitably fell. Come to the big celebrity "Gu Yixing".

"Starting from the Tweeting Order, talk about why the Song Dynasty insisted on hereditary surrender"? Tsk tsk, what's the matter? Can it be called the title of the book by adding punctuation? The vernacular is really hard to wait for the elegant hall."

"That's right, I've never seen such a long title!"

Wen Yuan smiled and said: "My virtuous brothers, this is unfair. If you virtuous brothers want to accuse him of mediocre writing, then I have nothing to say, but if you want to say that his article has a long name, then I will introduce a lovely song to everyone. My little poem: "Mr. Da Zongbo Jiquan's children celebrate their birthdays every year, and they don't give up a hundred-year-old cup, because they feel that they are loyal and martyrs. The rhyme of the poem is inherited from the fate, and the second rhyme is presented." "

All the scribes couldn't help feeling embarrassed, and one of them asked sourly: "Could it be that brother Wen Yuanxian is the recent celebrity Gu Yixing?"

Wen Yuan said: "How is that possible? Let me tell you, dear brothers, it's hard to hold a literary meeting today, so let's put aside the Yixing Songjiang Huating for the time being, okay? Let's talk about a new book recently published, "The Condor Heroes" Have you read "Narrative"? Brother Yu thinks it's good!"

One person laughed and said: "The dog continues the mink tail!"

Wen Yuan blushed immediately, and argued: "I think it's good, Brother Xian must not have looked carefully!"

The corruption case in the capital finally came to an end. After Mu Chengxiang and Fu Shaoge searched diligently, all four crops including potatoes, peanuts, corn, and sweet potatoes were found.

Gu Li was overjoyed, and wrote down the conditions for these four kinds of crops, including how to sow, how to accelerate germination, how to top-dress, what kind of pests and diseases need to be controlled, etc., in great detail.Gu Li asked the supervisor of Shangshan to urge a batch of seedlings to come out and distribute them to various Huangzhuangs across the country, and let Huangzhuangs try cultivation first.

After finishing all this work, Gu Li breathed a sigh of relief.In any case, his great cause of saving the country has finally taken a small step. Whether he can safely survive the crisis brought about by the Little Ice Age depends on this spring.

Zhao Sheng, Shangshu of the household department, was deprived of his official position, his fame and fame, and demoted to a common man.In addition, more than [-] officials were dismissed, and many positions were vacated in the court for a while. The Minister of the Ministry of Officials, Zuo Shijue, drew up a list of promotions, which was handed over by Prime Minister Mu and handed over to Gu Li. tick.

When Gu Li thought of Zuo Shijue, he still heard Yu Guangle talk about an incident a while ago.The newspaper was troubled to come to the newspaper because of the publication of "An Appeal against Thieves". It was Zuo Shijue who passed by and rescued the siege.

He stretched out his hand not to hit the smiling face, so in one fell swoop, Gu Li had a little more affection for the Zuo Shijue, and remembered the memorial he presented last time. He made five suggestions, one of which was to rectify the administration of officials.This is also Gu Li's next plan, so he asked Zuo Shijue to think about how to rectify the bureaucracy, and write a report to submit.

Speaking of the report, Gu Li remembered that because Zhang Ci'er died in prison a while ago, he casually asked Hong Zhenqiu to submit a self-examination report, and the boy wrote it three times.

In the first report, Hong Zhenqiu bragged about Gu Likuang. This flattery made Gu Li's embarrassment almost healed. In the second report, Hong Zhenqiu finally stopped flattering. Gu Li felt that Zhang Ci'er's death was not his responsibility.The first two reports were rejected, and the third report finally had some substance.In the report, Hong Zhenqiu mentioned the current situation of the Ministry of Criminal Justice. The Ministry of Criminal Justice is short of manpower, and there are many backlog cases that need to be dealt with. In addition, the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice is almost full of people. He suggested that Gu Li hold a joint trial of the three judicial divisions to re-examine the cases with omissions. .In addition, he also analyzed the reasons for Zhang Ci'er's murder and how to improve it in the future. Finally, he barely passed the test.

It's not easy for Gu Li to ask him to write again.Recently, he has been investigating pension and embezzlement cases. Hong Zhenqiu, a dignified secretary of the Ministry of Criminal Affairs, should spend his time and energy on doing business, not on writing reports.Hong Zhenqiu's report reminded him that when he has time, he should hold a joint trial of the three judicial departments to re-examine the unjust, false and wrongly decided cases, and give the Ministry of Criminal Justice a quick release.

The spring is beautiful, Gu Li finished his business, took Xie Lian and others to relax in the imperial garden.Xie Lian was sent by him to protect Xiao Tan before, Xiao Tan has served in the barracks for three years, and it is time for him to be released back to his hometown.Gu Li simply asked Xie Lian to send him back to his hometown. Xie Lian only returned to the capital yesterday.

Intoxicated by the spring breeze, Gu Li led the guards to the Long Live Mountain, across the Taiye Pond, opposite the Leopard Room.This Longevity Mountain is the coal mountain where Chongzhen hanged himself. Although it is a bit unlucky, the scenery on this Longevity Mountain is good, the terrain is high, and the scenery is far away. In mid-spring, the vegetation is green. Picking up a tree leaf, he played with it happily and said, "This leaf is tender and green, it belongs to Zhen'er! Zhen'er is going to give it to the kitten!"

Gu Li picked him up, and asked with a smile: "Didn't you just call Brother Kitten into the palace last time? Do you miss Brother Kitty again?"

A few days ago, Gu Li asked Yu Guangle to bring the kitten into the palace to play with Gu Youzhen.

Gu Youzhen nodded and said, "The little cat taught my minister very powerful martial arts! He said that if anyone dares to bully my minister, he will be beaten with the eighteen palms of the dragon."

Gu Li burst out laughing, and said, "Okay! Then show your father the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms."

Gu Youzhen was placed on the ground by Gu Li, and she really punched her fists, and she was still shouting, "Hey" and "Ha" could be heard endlessly.

He was full of milk, but he beat very seriously, and all the guards couldn't help covering their mouths and laughing when they saw it.

After punching, Gu Li applauded and praised: "This boxing method, Zhen'er is very powerful and powerful! If you can grow taller and stronger, you will definitely have more momentum!"

Gu Youzhen said happily: "Then Zhen'er will grow as tall and strong as the father!"

"Then you have to eat more, you can't just eat snacks, and you can't be picky eaters!"

Gu Youzhen turned from sunny to cloudy, with a little bun full of tangles on her face, she frowned and said, "Then... I'm still not a hero...Let the kitten be a hero and protect my son."

Gu Li laughed, Gu Youzhen is still a little delicate, she needs more training.He hugged Gu Youzhen into his arms: "You silly boy, no matter how powerful the father is, there will be times when he is old, and no matter how powerful the kitten is, there will be times when he will be negligent. You need to be capable to protect yourself."

The father and son were talking, when shouts came from the foot of Longevity Mountain, Zhou Changshun stepped up quickly, and said back, "Your Majesty, Guo Xuan, please see me."

Gu Li frowned, feeling a little annoyed.

He already knew why Guo Xuanshi came here.In the corruption case handled by Gu Li, a small official named Guo Zhun was involved, who was Guo Xuanshi's father.In order to prevent foreign relatives from becoming big, at the beginning of the founding of the Great Chu, it was stipulated that the prince could only marry the daughter of a commoner.Guo Zhun's small official position was donated by Guo Xuanshi after he entered the palace.

Guo Xuan waited eagerly to plead for his father, how could Gu Li be lenient at such a critical point.If even Guo Xuanshi's father is lenient, but wants to strictly investigate the prince, he is slapping himself in the face. Not only will he not be able to convince the courtiers and relatives, but the people in the world will laugh at him.

As early as when Guo Xuanshi came to him to intercede for the first time, he had already said all the truth.However, after all, it concerns his own family. Guo Xuanshi couldn't think rationally for a while. He came to plead twice and three times. come over.

Before Gu Li opened his mouth, Guo Xuan had already walked up the mountain in three steps and two steps at a time, leaving the maids and servants far behind, disregarding etiquette, and said with red eyes: "Your Majesty has been hiding these few days. A concubine?"

Gu Li said: "No, I'm just busy with business. Is Guo Xuanshi here to enjoy the scenery?"

"This concubine came here on purpose to find His Majesty. Your Majesty, I beg Your Majesty to show mercy to my father, Guo Zhun, as an extrajudicial mercy! As long as he can keep his official position, he is willing to redeem his sin with money!"

"Keep the official position, and the fines paid can be recovered from the trustees, right?" Gu Li sighed, and said: "I have already made it very clear. If you set this precedent for your father, the Queen Mother will be rewarded in the future." I will come to find Zhen to let me off to become a prince at night, and tomorrow the courtiers will go to the court to ask me to forgive me and give me a lenient punishment. If extrajudicial favors are so casual, who will believe in the law? How else can I manage this country ?”

Guo Xuan asked: "Your Majesty, the amount my father embezzled is only 500 taels..."

Gu Li said: "It's only 500 taels? Guo Xuanshi, do you know that an ordinary family spends only a few dozen taels a year, and I just removed your father from his official position and asked him to pay according to the amount of embezzlement?" Three times the silver to make atonement, I did not follow the example of the tyrant, and beheaded all corrupt people, it is already an extrajudicial mercy."

Guo Xuan's face showed resentment: "Your Majesty loved Zhao Anqin in the past and promoted him to be a young supervisor of the Banking Bureau. Zhao Anqin embezzled 3000 taels a year, but what did His Majesty say? Zhao Anqin was born in poverty, and there is a reason why he loves money. Just tell him to hand over all the corrupt ones. Why can’t you talk about the law and human feelings when you come to my concubine’s father?”

Gu Li said lightly: "You also said that it was in the past. At this time and at that time, Guo Xuanshi should stop being a fool."

Guo Xuanshi's face turned blue, and he said bitterly: "It's the concubine's fault, whoever makes the concubine unfavorable, can't let your majesty say 'the law is nothing more than human feelings'."

Gu Li said angrily: "Servant Guo Xuan!"

Gu Li began to reflect, is it because he has been too kind to others all the time, without the majesty of a king, so Guo Xuanshi is not afraid of him anymore?

Guo Xuanshi lowered his head and did not speak.Gu Youzhen was held in Gu Li's arms, and when she saw the two quarreling, she was a little scared for a moment, and cried, "Father, don't scold mother and concubine..."

Gu Li quickly coaxed him.Guo Xuan urged: "Zhen'er, hurry up and beg Father to spare your grandfather!"

Gu Li was completely angry that she used a child like Gu Youzhen as a weapon.Gu Li said: "Guo Xuan is tired, it's time to go back to the palace to rest."

After all, he hugged Gu Youzhen and left.

Yang Tingbi left Beijing with his family and went south, and arrived at the boundary of Luoyang that day.He had a few friends in Luoyang City, so he simply stayed in the temple and found some time to visit his friends.

A friend of his had a good relationship with the former Prince Fu's son and the current King Fu. After hearing about Yang Tingbi's talent, King Fu invited Yang Tingbi to the palace for a banquet.

This Fu Wang inherited the title not long ago. He is young, only in his early thirties, but his skin is swollen, his spirit is low, and his eyes are blue.

Fu Wang had heard about Yang Tingbi's talent and name for a long time, and he was very warm to him. During the meeting, when they talked about the capital, Fu Wang asked: "Young brother Yang has lived in the capital these days. Have you heard of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes?"

Yang Tingbi smiled and said, "Of course I have heard of it."

King Fu held his palm and said: "That's just right. The theater troupe in my palace has recently arranged a play, which is adapted from "The Legend of the Condor Heroes". My dear brother, why don't you stay and watch and give some pointers?"

Yang Tingbi had no choice but to readily agree.

During the banquet, the two of them exchanged a few words, and then a dish was served, and within the time of speaking, four or five exquisite dishes were presented.Seeing Yang Tingbi put down the chopsticks, King Fu asked, "Are these dishes to my taste?"

Yang Tingbi nodded happily: "The taste is very delicious, I have never tasted it anywhere else."

Fu Wang laughed and said: "This is the handicraft of the royal chef in the palace."

Yang Tingbi's friend was surprised: "Did Your Majesty even send the imperial cook?"

"A few days ago, I wanted to add some domestic slaves. I asked His Majesty's important people, but His Majesty never agreed. How could I send the royal chef to the king. The chef of my palace is Wen Yuchu, who used to cook meals for the royal family in the palace. Wen Hegui!"

The man was overjoyed and said: "It's Wen Yuchu?! Zuo Zhongzai's calligraphy and painting, Wen Yuchu's rice soup, Zuo Shangshu has no chance to see it, this Wen Yuchu is lucky to have a meeting today, it is really thanks to the prince's blessing."

Fu Wang was so proud that he ordered Wen Yuchu to be called over.

Yang Tingbi's friend said again: "This Imperial Chef Wen is very famous in the south of the Yangtze River. It takes 200 taels of gold to fix a table of meals. The prince is so generous that he was able to invite this person here!"

Yang Tingbi asked: "Since this man is working as an imperial cook in the palace, why did he come to the prince's house?"

While talking, a short, fat middle-aged man came in with his servants, and bowed to King Fu and the others.King Fu said: "Here, let the younger brother ask this, let him talk about it himself. Wen Yuchu, tell me, why did His Majesty let you out of the palace?"

Wen Hegui is no longer the imperial chef, but everyone still likes to call him that.Wen Hegui smiled and said: "That day, the villain cooked three dishes of imperial food, sliced ​​mutton lip meat, fried goose palm, and a bowl of delicacies soup. After His Majesty used it, the dragon's heart was overjoyed, so he called the villain to ask about the dish How did you do it..."

When Wen Hegui talked about that day, he could still vividly remember it.When it comes to royal secrets, everyone listens carefully.After hearing Wen Hegui say: "Your Majesty said, 'Fried goose feet raw, lamb lip meat, such bloody cooking methods make me feel uneasy. From now on, I will rectify the diet for me and the harem, and only cook ordinary home-cooked dishes. That’s fine, the flowers for a meal should not exceed one tael of silver.’”

Yang Tingbi smiled slightly with admiration on his face.

King Fu laughed heartily, and asked everyone: "Look at our Majesty, it really is that the old thief Wang Zheng emptied the treasury of the inner court, and he can't even afford a meal! Guess what, this king! How much did a meal cost?"

Everyone guessed wildly, but they didn't guess right, and urged King Fu to speak quickly.King Fu stretched out five fingers.

One exclaimed, "500 taels of gold?"

King Fu smiled triumphantly.

Everyone bragged and praised.

Satisfied, King Fu said to Wen Yuchu, "Your Majesty rewarded you with 20 taels of silver as compensation, and this king also rewarded you with 20 taels of silver!"

King Fu stretched out two fingers, shook them, and said, "Come here! Take 20 taels—gold!"

Wen Yuchu received the reward, kowtowed and thanked Queen Fu and left. When everyone saw the shining gold, they couldn't help being envious, and they all echoed and boasted about King Fu's arrogance.

Yang Tingbi was sitting quietly, still thinking about the story Wen Yuchu told just now.After the banquet was over, there was a play in the backyard of Prince Fu's Mansion. Yang Tingbi sat in the corner with his family children, but he was a little absent-minded.

The house boy asked, "What's the matter, young master? You need to bring a bowl of hangover soup."

Yang Tingbi shook his head and said with a smile: "Yang Kai, I'm not drunk, I just want to go home and study now."

The family boy wondered: "I never heard that Enke is going to be used."

"If you don't review your books in advance, you won't pass the exam. It's a small shame. If you don't have the chance to meet the emperor, that's a pity..."

His voice was so low that the houseboy couldn't hear him clearly.At this time, the play had already started, and Yang Tingbi was a little dizzy, so he walked around the garden by himself to get some air.

At this moment, a furtive figure flashed past, Yang Tingbi squinted his eyes, and by the light, he could clearly see that it was a young man dressed as a cook, his whole body was tense, and something was wrapped in his sleeve, and he was staring at him closely. Fu Wang at the head of the crowd.

Yang Tingbi's face turned cold, and he walked forward quietly, and he couldn't see exactly how he moved. It seemed that he just reached out and grabbed the young man easily, and pressed the young man to the ground.

Yang Tingbi covered the young man's mouth, and pulled out a machete from his sleeve with a cold face.

He let go of his hand, stood up, and said, "I won't expose you, you can go."

The young man had a look of despair, and said in grief and indignation: "You are helping the tyrant to abuse, and you will die!"

Yang Tingbi glanced at him: "How can I help the tyrant? To prevent you from killing people is to help the tyrant?"

"I killed King Fu to eliminate harm for the people. If you stop me, aren't you helping the evildoer?"

Yang Tingbi said: "Do you think you can really kill him? Before you get close, I'm afraid you will die in the hands of the guards beside him. I'm not helping him, but saving you."

The young man was sad and frustrated, lying on the ground, curled up, and began to cry.

Yang Tingbi wondered: "Your tears don't come easily, why have you been wronged? I don't think you are a cook at all, how did you get in here?"

The young man had had enough crying, stood up and wiped his face: "You don't need to cry like a cat and pretend to be merciful!"

Yang Tingbi was angry and funny, and said: "Well, let me give you some advice. If you are bullied by King Fu, you can go to Beijing to file an imperial complaint. Your Majesty has set up a supervision department in the Metropolitan Procuratorate. If you are wronged, go and tell your majesty." Well, he will definitely decide for you."

The young man was quite hesitant, Yang Tingbi ignored him and turned back.

Gu Li was really bored staying in the palace, so he took a moment, changed into a scarf and dark clothes, and left the palace from the pasture.

He first went to Nianzi Hutong to have a look, and it had been more than a month, but Chen Feng really didn't come back.Thinking of the time and energy he had spent on Chen Feng, Gu Li felt depressed, and couldn't figure out why Chen Feng suddenly didn't want him as a pawn.

The matter of the treasure has not yet escaped half a word from his mouth.

Gu Li changed into ordinary people's clothes and walked around the capital at will.The Metropolitan Procuratorate has newly established a Supervision Department, and he also wants to conduct an open and secret investigation to see if he is engaging in formalism.Who would have thought that as soon as I was sitting in the teahouse and listening to the people chatting, I heard someone say: "Hey, have you heard that the famous Gu Yixing is going to hold a literary conference! He has invited a lot of people!"

Gu Li was agitated, thinking Gu Shixing?What Yixing?Gu Yi what?Which cowardly bastard is bluffing and cheating under his banner? !

Gu Li pricked up his ears and continued to listen to people chatting.

"You mean the famous people in the capital recently?"

"Hey? Brother, you say that Gu Yixing is a big celebrity, but I am not convinced! The real big celebrity is obviously Mr. Jin Yong! This vernacular article written by Gu Yixing is comparable to a toe of our Mr. Jin Yong ?"

"That's right, what does the poetry meeting have to do with us? You don't invite us to go! I said, have you bought today's "Da Chu Morning News"? Let's take a look together!"

Why don't we talk about this?Gu Li was in a hurry, turned his head, and asked, "Brother, you just said that Gu Yixing is holding a literary conference? When? Where is it?"

Seeing that there was no one to talk to, the man was a little depressed, but when he saw that such a delicate and beautiful young man as Gu Li actually asked him a question, he immediately became animated, pulled the stool, sat down at Gu Li's table, and laughed Said: "Where are you from, my virtuous brother? I think you are also a well-educated person. Would you be interested in this article?"

Gu Li grinned, revealing a dimple on his cheek: "Young brother is from Yixing, Jiangsu, and came to the capital to study."

The man smiled and said: "So that's the case. Speaking of this essay meeting, it's held in Yuanzhen Temple, and it's just today. Looking at this hour, I guess it's about to start."

When the man saw Gu Li's anxious expression, he said happily: "It seems that my brother also wants to go and see, but this literary society, if there is no invitation card, you can't get in."

Gu Li said: "Brother Xian knows so clearly, there must be a way for me to take a look inside."

The man looked pale and said: "Well, brother Yu naturally has some connections, but it's more troublesome..."

How could Gu Li fail to understand what he meant, so he took out a stack of big Chu treasure banknotes, and counted ten five banknotes in front of the man.A hundred bills is one tael of silver, and fifty bills and a half taels of silver are quite a lot.

The man couldn't take his eyes off him. Seeing that Gu Li had counted, he was about to stretch out his hand. Gu Li held him down and said with a smile, "Brother Xian, can you let me see the invitation first?"

The author has something to say: Feng Feng should come out soon.
