Chapter 365 How can Zhongzheng Yingchao use the invention of eunuchs!
"Hey, what are you doing? The year of disaster is too much. The people of Jingzhao are still suffering from drought. As Jingzhao Yin, I should set an example and save water. What is the use of this kind of pool? Carry it away!
What? The extra ones that were released when Gouyi Hall were demolished are not needed and idle either? Then I don’t need to! Let’s put them aside for now. It’s rare that you General Zhao is willing. Forget it, you guys, help me put the copper shower. This year, I share the joys and sorrows with the people. During my time in Chang'an, I only take a shower and don’t take a bath! I can still grow vegetables in the garden after I used up water."
Liu Miao and Jinse sat in the carriage, slightly lifted the curtain, and drove directly into the inner courtyard without getting off the car. Looking at Li Su's statement inside the side door of the Hou Mansion, the girls were also quite curious:
There was actually a day when Pi Hou didn’t take a bath. The sun really came out from the west. How serious is the disaster in Guanzhong this year?
Of course, there will be no ordinary people walking around at the gate of Jingzhao Yin Mansion, but there are still officials passing by. From time to time, some officials give a little advice and smile, but they are half-believing and half-doubting.
This is not the main entrance of the mansion, because the main entrance can only walk, there are steps, and you cannot enter the car. The side door is for the car and the delivery person.
Li Su couldn't play this at the main entrance in person, as that would be too fake. He was obviously self-disciplined and would be regarded as a show by others, and his acting skills were more natural on the side door.
Li Su's behavior in this life is there. If you want him to live a hard life completely, others will not believe it. At best, it can only be "not wasted".
After sending the gift-giving person away, Li Sucai noticed the carriages that had just entered the mansion, and knew that it was the maids and servants brought by the family. These people arrived basically meant that Cai Yong and Liu Ba and other civil servants had also arrived. Li Su knew that he was about to enter a new round of busyness, so he was going to take a break and ask about his family's situation.
When he returned to the back hall, Li Su saw Jinse Xiuse and several unknown beautiful maids coming up to greet him and bowed.
Li Su was not polite to them. After all, he hadn't seen a woman for four months. He just hugged his waist and took advantage of it, showing off his brothers and feet. Anyway, he was from his own family, so why are you polite?
Jinse shivered slightly and quickly recovered from calmness. Xiuse was not mentally prepared, and she was younger and always was very stiff. Li Su was also a person who cared about the fragrance and jade. She felt that the tentacles were stiff, so she naturally let go of the side.
Jinse's face turned red, she barely kept her mind clear, and she whispered in a shaky manner: "We are here with Sister Miao, don't be rude."
Only then did Li Su notice that there was another sitting in the room, which was Liu Miao. He immediately let go of his hand and bowed to Liu Miao. Liu Miao also stood up and said, "I have seen Brother Li. Wannian County is ruined, and the restoration of the mansion is too much. In the year of the disaster, my younger sister asked the emperor for instructions and lived in the west corner of Changle Palace. I can still walk around for a long time in the future. Brother Li will not dislike my younger sister for being an uninvited guest."
Li Su: "You are polite princess. The princess is willing to compassionate with the suffering of the people. Is it my fellow generations? Are you here with Zeissong and Liu Sinong?"
Jinse helped answer, while pouring tea: "It was natural, and the war was in chaos. The king sent two thousand cavalry to escort the convoy. There were so many civil servants, counselors, and staff, but they could not be missed. Of course, we would also follow us, so that we could have escorts to take care of us."
It is still in wartime. Li Jue and Guo Si were defeated before and fled rebels, forming a small group of bandits and bandits, and it may not be eliminated within a year. In addition, the drought and locust plagues, and the bandits had no food, so they would definitely rob the people. Therefore, they would definitely lead a large group of soldiers and bodyguards when they came thousands of miles away from Chencang Road.
"My father-in-law and Liu Ba are here, so I'm more relaxed here. Zhang Yi, a farmer of the Grand Secretary, has been righteous and refuted my disaster resistance these days. There are also several corrupt scholars with integrity and unsightly knowledge, and they also make excuses.
If my father-in-law, Sikong, hadn't come, the king would have to suppress it first, and would not want to be accused of being nepotist in court. Otherwise, I would have made it clear to them that if I have the blame, I will get out. Now that everyone has arrived, I will finally be busy."
Liu Bei had to deal with those civil affairs officials who were hindering the disaster. Of course, he was able to make it easy, but after all, he had to show that he was completely different from Li Jue, so he had to go through the procedures.
As the saying goes, if the name is not upright, the words are not upright. Cai Yong, the Sikong, is the direct leader of the Grand Secretary, Zongzheng and Shaofu, and Cai Yong's Sikong was also personally appointed by Liu Xie, and the court was dissatisfied. It would be more natural to ask him to be the evil person who suggested personnel changes.
Liu Miao felt unhappy on the way. At this moment, he heard Li Su say it in person and became increasingly unwilling to accept it: "Those people are too ungrateful. Brother Li, what's wrong with you for resisting drought and killing locusts like this? Why are there anyone criticizing you?"
"You are still young, and you don't understand what you said." Li Su was too lazy to answer, because he had to keep his energy to talk to the master in a while, so he interrupted the topic and asked Jinse: "Does your wife send a letter to Nanzheng in the past few months? When you set off, is there any latest news in Chengdu?"
Jinse blurted out: "Madam, everything is fine, just from the letter last month, and at the end of the joke that the ice made by Mr. last winter would probably be dispersed for the young ladies of Zhuge's family to make ice cream cheese. She is five or six months old and can't eat ice.
The princess has been two or three months after giving birth, so she will be cheaper then, but the princess will soon go north. The wife's letter said that in the past few months, only the second lady of the Zhuge family will often visit her, and there are not many important officials and female relatives left in other Chengdu."
Li Su smiled embarrassedly and was difficult to respond. Of course, he knew that what Cai Yan regretted was not that the ice reserved for the winter was left, but that he could not go back even in summer.
As a literary young woman, she can’t just say it even if she misses her husband, she can only say “I don’t go home after making ice cream”!
Thinking of the gentleness, Li Su, who had not touched a woman for four or five months, was naturally a little hot, but Liu Miao's light bulb was still there, and Jinse had never been through Minglu before, so Li Su was not reckless.
After a while of nonsense, I heard someone coming outside to report that the king was coming, and there were also Grand Minister and several other officials who "reported to deal with disaster relief accidents" to discuss matters in front of the king.
Liu Bei was also very proud of his face. He did not summon Li Su to Beigong Chen to report, but went directly to Jingzhao Yin's residence to discuss matters, which was quite meaningful that Zhao Kuangyin visited Zhao Pu on a snowy night. On the other hand, he seemed more open and honest.
Because if you go to the palace to debate and clarify the facts, there will be even fewer spectators, and even low-level officials cannot enter the Beigong.
Li Su quickly straightened his clothes and ordered Jinse: "You should serve the princess well, and I will come to handle official duties."
Liu Miao was unwilling to give up, so she pretended to sit with Jinse for a while, and insisted on going to the screen at the back door of the front hall to eavesdrop. Jinse had a low status and was not easy to stop, but she knew that Liu Miao knew the importance of it, so she warned her not to speak, it would be fine if she just listened.
...
Li Su got up and came to the main hall. He met Liu Bei and Cai Yong. He asked them to sit in the guest first and then greet the others.
Liu Bei was not a fool, but pointed directly at the group of people below and said, "Li Su, Grand Minister Nong and Yongzhou Hucai have been engaged in it. Recently, I have reported that you were arbitrary when fighting drought and killing locusts. Today I am the only one who decides for both of you. What do you say? I will argue in person today."
Liu Bei rarely calls him by his name directly, which shows that this time we want to establish credibility to show that we are not biased and whoever listens to him.
Of course, Li Su also had to cooperate, so he looked like he was doing business with Liu Bei: "Even if the king let them speak freely, I know that resisting drought for nearly a month, if you miss ten thousand, it will inevitably cause accumulative problems."
A group of visiting officials looked at Zhang Yi, a senior manager, first, but Zhang Yi did not seem to be planning to say it first, so someone else would test it first.
Of course, no one is a fool. Now everyone knows that the knife is in Liu Bei's hands, so no one dares to attack Li Su. Even if you ask for it, it is an excuse to convey the love and let Li Su know that the public is "resentment is boiling."
After a little dismay, an official who served as the rank of 600 stones of Yongzhou households took the lead in leaving the list. The man was named Wang Bi, and said sincerely to Liu Bei and Cai Yong:
"Reporting to the King, Zeiskong, recently, many wealthy families in Fufeng in Jingzhao resisted large-scale construction and petitioned, thinking that they should rest with the people in the year of a major disaster, and the cost of building overturned vehicles is huge, so they may not be able to recover their investment in the year of a disaster, so it is better to slow down. I have thoroughly understood the people's sentiments and felt that there were indeed many disasters caused by overturned vehicles. It is better to stop the corvee service and only dug irrigation canals."
Liu Bei knew that it must be Li Su's reason, but he asked fairly: "Jingzhao, how to explain this matter? Can the accounts stand the inspection?"
Li Su bowed: "The labor expenses for the extensive construction of overturning and digging irrigation canals are listed in detailed accounts. According to the results of saving the crops per unit area of land and acres, there is no disadvantage in overturning, and the expenses of the two are basically equivalent.
Moreover, even though the cost of overturning is slightly more flexible, it can be used on rivers with huge water volumes. It is not advisable to dig the river bank directly. Because digging canals directly in those places can easily cause the risk of dam breaking, and there may be flooding when the water is abundant in the coming year."
Li Su said this very clearly. From this we can see that the cost of overturning is indeed a little more expensive, but in some occasions, it is only suitable for overturning.
At this time, Cai Yong, who had not spoken, also spoke, asking Wang Bi to refute Li Su from a technical perspective.
But this is obviously difficult for civil servants who only read the books of sages and do not understand water conservancy. They didn't even read the "Agricultural Techniques" written by Li Su and Cai Yan. How could they refute it from the technical details?
Wang Bixin made a fuss and said the idea that he had discussed with a group of friends and local families before he came, saying: "I don't understand the skills, but I heard that the reason why the car was expensive and expensive is its own reason - this thing was created by Bi Lan, the commander of the Ten Constant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant Attendant At
These words were obviously a carefully designed curve refutation of Li Su's careful opposition to the disaster relief and the family members who wanted to take the opportunity to annex the land of the poor.
They know that they do not have technical talents in this area, and they debate the possibility of construction and whether the cost is cost-effective, and they are not good at it.
However, since ancient times, the literati and officials have one of the best moves to attack political enemies, that is, they use eunuchs to attack the opponent, and they can be tried and tested.
The water truck facility like the rollover is really not clean. When Li Su later studied history textbooks, he would not introduce who invented it. He just generally said that it was "the crystallization of the wisdom of the working people in the late Han Dynasty."
But this thing was actually Bi Lan, one of the ten eunuchs, who was originally the Yeting Order, who was used to enjoy the "fountain bathing maniac" and "water supply and drainage maniac" in order to enjoy Emperor Ling of Han, and the prototype was indeed unclear.
Li Su likes to use it so much, it must be because this is a "bathing technology", and his motivation is not pure! It affects his decision-making deviation!
