Chapter 5 Good and Evil

Chang'an in summer is like a steamer. The hottest part of the day is not at noon, but in the afternoon. The weather is nice today, cloudless. Based on court etiquette, when the emperor is under the yellow umbrella, officials must stand in the blue sky.

Next, I put on the heavy court clothes and stood under the scorching sun for two full hours. My chest was filled with treasures and anger. Before I knew it, several old and frail people had suffered from heatstroke and their faces were flushed.

I'm trying hard to persevere and don't want to lose my etiquette.

However, when Li Er was so happy to see Yun Ye, he forgot that his ministers were still standing under the sun suffering, or did he knowingly commit the crime?

With a bowl of old wine from Lingnan as a base, Yun Ye really doesn't care too much about the scorching sun in Chang'an. The emperor wants to hear the story, so come. Anyway, I want to end the process of presenting the treasure as soon as possible, but the emperor doesn't allow it. What can I do?

The tone is also good.

Yun Ye put the box in his hand into the pile of treasures, then found a shady place to sit down and started telling Li Er a story.

"This matter started when I left the palace that day... Later I found gold in the sand by the river, so I told Dou Yanshan how to mine it..."

Li Er was fascinated by what he heard. What he liked most in his life was this kind of battle of wits and courage. He was immersed in the storyline and couldn't help himself, paying no attention to the sound of gud-dong-dong coming from behind.

"Your Majesty, the weather today is too hot. Please end the ceremony early. Six ministers have already become unwell and have passed out."

Fang Xuanling, who couldn't bear it anymore, finally reminded the emperor loudly, dragging the emperor's mind back from his imagination. Li Er looked behind him in displeasure and was startled. There were several drooling people lying on the ground.

Minister, I am receiving treatment from the royal doctor.

"Oh, I thought I was in the army. I need to get treatment as soon as possible. You should go to a cool place and drink some fire-reducing medicine as soon as possible. It took too long to see your majesty today."

The ministers breathed a sigh of relief. A group of people came to the Tai Chi Palace and drank a lot of sour plum soup with ice. Only Zhang Liang was calm and elegant. He didn't feel the sun outside at all.

With the heat, he picked up the sour plum soup like a machine and slowly sipped it one mouthful at a time.

"Mr. Zhang is so kind. He donated all the profits from Lingnan in one go, and then wrote to the Marquis of Lantian, asking him not to show favoritism. Now he can still be calm and calm after seeing so many treasures. He is really a role model for our generation.

, I don’t have the ambitions of Mr. Zhang. I want to be the general manager of this or that general manager. I just want to take the whole family to eat and drink. Now, under your call, the Yao family has suffered heavy losses. If Du Xiang hadn’t interceded, Yun

Hou You opened the net and only collected 60% of my membership. The whole family has long been starved to death. It's just that you, Mr. Zhang, have to climb up to become the Duke of the country, the prince, or you have other ideas, so forget it.

, why do you want to drag us into misfortune? Is it time for us to have an explanation now? "

"Money and silk are so touching. I am a good-for-nothing guy. I just want to have more spare money at home and give my children and grandchildren a foundation to establish themselves. We tied our heads to our belts and fought for our lives back then, just for today. Okay,

Half of my life's wealth is now gone. Lao Zhang, why don't you give me some compensation, brother?"

Zhang Liang was trembling and furious: "Back then, I only said it would be donated to my family, not yours. It was your voluntary donation. It's none of my business."

Liu Hongji, the Duke of Kui, had a bad temper. When he heard what Zhang Liang said, he angrily said: "Fart, we nobles are originally one. Yun Ye found a shortcut for everyone to make a fortune. This road is good.

It doesn’t violate national laws, and there is no need to engage in corruption or bribery. Now more than half of the clean money I got from it is gone, and you are so fucking stubborn. If you hadn’t driven me to a dead end, I would have stood up and admitted it.

Donate? They didn’t donate at that time. The biggest head in Lingnan belonged to His Majesty. His Majesty’s income was enough to support the Western Expedition. Yun Ye had deposited 900,000 yuan in the bank for His Majesty in Mingzhou. He didn’t even have enough money.

Half of the things confiscated by Lingnan and the things placed outside include my share. Will you compensate me?"

"Liu Hongji, not a penny of my income in Lingnan was confiscated by Yun Ye, and my family generals were also killed by Hong Cheng and Wu Shi. There is Yun Ye's shadow in this. You still lost 40% of my capital.

If you have no home, who can you talk to?"

"You deserve it. Although I am lustful, I don't have the guts to take advantage of the wife of my descendants. This old face still wants to live. If Yun Ye doesn't plunder you, who will he plunder? Look at the one who is about to die here except yours.

No one is left, who died for no reason? In addition to those who died on the battlefield, all the members of my family who had one leg have arrived in Luoyang, and brought back the remaining 40% of the money without a penny. Yun Ye also brought some easily

Sell ​​and leave valuable items to me. They are all from the army. I have accepted this favor. If Yun Ye wants to lead people to kill you, I might kick you secretly. "

"You idiot..." Zhang Liang wanted to curse, but when he opened his mouth, Liu Hongji's fist hit Zhang Liang's face.

Fang Xuanling and Du Ruhui held bowls of sour plum soup, avoided a flying boot, and hid behind the pillars to talk quietly.

"Lao Du, your Majesty has sent out all the generals who can be used this time. Only these rough guys are left in the capital. It seems that your Majesty wants to rectify these lawless nobles. Each of them only knows how to benefit his own family.

, does not take the safety of the country seriously at all. This is in sharp contrast to the four families of Cheng, Niu, Yun, and Qin who did not hesitate to break up their families to support the national war. Look, this time the war is over, these four families

I will definitely go to the next level.”

Du Ruhui stretched his neck to look at Li Er and Yun Ye, who were laughing from time to time in the square, and then said: "Yun Ye is indeed worthy of his reputation as an immortal disciple. He has saved danger many times, and that's it.

Your Majesty will rely heavily on his ability to turn stone into gold. He can make enough money for the country without adding any wealth to each household. This is an extraordinary skill. He seems to know where there is wealth in this world and how to get it. Do you still remember the Jade Mountain he painted?

Academy plan? At that time, we were still laughing at him for overestimating his capabilities. Now it seems that he will complete it in less than twenty years. The day when the academy city is built is when he will become a literary emperor."

Fang Xuanling looked behind the pillar and found that it was very quiet outside. Zhang Liang fell to the ground and twitched like a puddle of mud. His mouth and nose were full of blood. His brand-new official uniform was covered with footprints. There were also many naked crotches.

One foot looks miserable.

Liu Hongji and several of the father-in-laws from the Pei family, Zhang family, and Yao family who had just taken action were all drinking sour plum soup quietly. Liu Hongji also opened his clothes to fan the wind, as if the kicks on Zhang Liang's crotch just now had nothing to do with him.

Seems like.

Fang Xuanling ordered his chamberlain to find Zhang Liang's boots and put them on, and said to the imperial doctor: "Mr. Zhang accidentally got a stroke and hit his face on the steps. Please treat him carefully and send someone to send him away."

He will go home and take care of himself, and I will give him a leave of absence."

Liu Hongji gritted his teeth and pointed his thumb at Fang Xuanling, and then continued to drink sour plum soup. He had not been on the battlefield for many years, and his whole body felt weak after being exposed to the sun.

The monarch and his ministers in the square had already reached the edge of the Jinshui River, sitting under the willow tree and continuing to talk.

"So Dou Yanshan still died in your hands?"

"Your Majesty, you can't say that. He really fought with a crocodile and died after both sides were injured. It was not the minister who killed him.

"Hmph, you and your horse ate the crocodile eggs, and then ran to the other side of the lake. You saw Dou Yanshan taking the injured housekeeper to a dangerous place without notifying you. You were planning to kill him, and you even called

What innocence."

"Your Majesty, Dou Yanshan is a rebellious minister and a traitor, and Wei Chen is a positive character in the story. Are you pitying the wrong person? Wei Chen was kidnapped by him and suffered a lot, but you don't feel sorry for Wei Chen? Fatty Wangcai

He is so thin that he has only a handful of bones left, and Wei Chen is now as tanned as a black man by the Lingnan sun. Do you actually sympathize with him? "

"You know nothing. The so-called knowing heroes and valuing heroes is a sentiment that a king must have. Putting aside his position, compared to Dou Yanshan, you are more like a scheming, cunning and treacherous villain who used gold to kill a man.

The originally very calm Xiong Xiong became aggressive and took advantage of his advantage of being one step ahead, forcing Dou Yanshan to have a final decisive battle with the crocodile. Both sides suffered losses. What a pity, Xiong Xiong was such a good prospect.

What you did in the end was somewhat of a gentleman. You buried him and gave him a monument. If you hadn't done this, I would have looked down upon you. In fact, the most rare thing about you was that you didn't belittle your opponent and hold him in contempt.

I have three respects and tell others truthfully about the battle between him and the crocodile, that is, the dragon. A gentleman's behavior is to hide evil and promote good, so there is no great good.

Boy, you always make me like you from the bottom of my heart when you do things. You have the principles you should have, the grace you should have, the persistence you should have and never give in. A cunning and slippery boy, you have finally grown up. You

It’s time for the master’s spirit in heaven to rest in peace.” Li Er sighed endlessly, looking as if he was relieved to see his descendants grow up.

"Your Majesty, I am eager to return home. I am ready to go home. Please ask Your Majesty to remove Wei Chen from his official position as commander of the Lingnan Navy. I will hand over the seal right now."

"Keep it. Where can I find a naval commander like you? Other commanders only ask me for money, food, and people. Only you can make a naval commander like a beggar rich and good at fighting, and also

If you have money to hand over to someone like this, it would be a waste if I don’t use it. Go home, I will grant you a month’s vacation.”

Although he did not achieve his goal, Yun Ye was still very happy when he heard that he would have a month's holiday. He thanked Li Er and walked out with a big step. After walking only two steps, he heard Li Er say again.

"It doesn't matter if you leave. You can keep the box of treasures in your arms before leaving. That thing has already entered the treasury and belongs to the Tang Dynasty. Whoever takes it will die. I don't want to order your head again at this time."
