Chapter 177 Greed for ink bounty?

There is no airtight wall in the world. What happened at the banquet at Prince Ning's Mansion last night spread among the literati the next day.

Of course, a large part of the reason why the news spread so quickly is because of the sentence "Forcing new words to express sorrow", which hit countless talented people in the knees.

After hearing this poem, some talented people looked at their previous favorite works and saw the various sorrows revealed in the words. Their faces turned red, and after hiding them, they would never show them to others easily.

Living in the prosperous land of Jiangnan, the world is stable, the years are quiet, and you can recite poems and write lyrics when you have nothing to do. This is the elegant life of a literati.

However, if they do not have enough experience, it is impossible to write good poems. They read all day long, hold poetry meetings, and when they are interested, they go to brothels and brothels to experience the suffering of the people. How can there be so much hatred between the country and the family, but

In order to write poetry, I can only "force my sorrow".

No illness, no sorrow, no sorrow, which invisibly increased the exaggerated poetic style in the Jiangnan literary world.

However, even if everyone is well aware of this, they will not point it out. After all, in order to write the first poem, you cannot have to go to the border to experience the situation of guarding the border and experience the pain of the destruction of your home and country...

And this sentence "Forcibly express sorrow in order to compose new lyrics" is like a hard slap on their face, reminding them to face reality, I am afraid that from now on, someone will write such poems again.

, you also have to weigh it in your mind to see if there is any suspicion of "forcing your worries".

As this poem swept through brothels and brothels everywhere with a wave of popularity, it was heard by more and more people. Over time, the exaggeration in the entire poetry world was actually reduced. Of course, these are all things for a later time.

At this time, the "culprit" who caused this incident was enjoying the warm air in his yard, lying on a rocking chair and enjoying himself.

Li Yi was very busy and hadn't looked inside the shop for several days.

Ruyi dew and spirits bring in a lot of profits every day, most of which come from the share allocated by the palace. Ruyi Fang's business is better than before, but its proportion in the total revenue is getting smaller and smaller.

If he was alone, he would probably close the shop and wait to collect money, but a Ruyifang is related to the livelihood of many people in the village. They are willing to do it, and Li Yi is also happy to be a hands-off shopkeeper.

He has been waiting for Jinshan these days.

Counting the days, the emperor should have returned to the palace long ago. The reward he mentioned that night should be true, right?

One hundred acres of fertile land, one hundred bolts of silk, and of course the most important thing is the ten thousand taels of gold. How long will it take to spend it?

Thinking that there was so much money rushing towards him, Li Yi made even less money.

Lying on the rocking chair, some parts of my body still feel a little sore. This is because I have practiced excessively in the past two days.

You can't mess with your grumpy sister-in-law. I accidentally saw her washing her bellyband in the yard two days ago. Do you need to retaliate against yourself like this?

If I hadn't asked Ruyi to give me a few massages with her unique technique, I'd probably still be shaking when I walked.

A burst of chaotic sounds suddenly came from outside the door. The courtyard door was not closed. Two men with white faces and cold and arrogant expressions pushed the door in. Li Yi looked up and saw two familiar eunuchs, and he couldn't help but feel happy.

Here comes the money giver.

"It must be hard for you two to come all the way. Would you like to go inside and have a cup of tea?" This time, Li Yi's attitude towards the two of them was completely different from before, and he was extremely enthusiastic.

After all, this time they are here to give money, so if you have trouble with anyone, you can't have trouble with gold.

Li Yi's attitude also made the two eunuchs who delivered the decree were stunned, and they felt quite flattered.

It had only been a few days, and their attitudes had changed so much that the two of them were a little uncomfortable with it.

But at least they managed to get a smile this time. Their cold expressions softened a little, and their tone was much softer than last time. They said, "Your Majesty has a decree. Lieutenant Li, please accept the decree."

Xiaohuan was taken down the mountain to go shopping by Ruyi sisters. Li Yi was the only one at home. When the two eunuchs entered the village just now, there must have been quite a commotion. Looking out the door, many people were curious.

looked inside.

What happened to the uncle of the Ruyi family? It has only been a few days, so why is there another imperial edict?

Counting all their generations, they have probably never seen the imperial edict once, but now it is good, they have seen it twice in a few days. Although the imperial edict is not for them, they will have something to brag about when they go out.

I have knelt down in front of imperial edicts. Imperial edicts are rare things. Have you ever seen them?

So, before Li Yi knelt down, he knelt down outside the door.

"Anxi County Lieutenant Li Yi created the method of "cardiopulmonary resuscitation"..."

A eunuch began to recite the imperial edict with an expressionless face. The edict did not mention Li Yi's contribution to the rescue. After all, the emperor also escaped this time and could not be too showy. Li Yi's contribution to cardiopulmonary resuscitation was used.

There are a lot of reasons and praises, but the main point has not yet been mentioned.

"...With a hundred generations of merit, I will be given a hundred bolts of silk, a hundred acres of fertile land, and a reward of ten thousand gold. How wonderful!"

By the time the eunuch finished reading, Li Yi could not wait to accept the imperial edict and said, "Thank you for your grace!"

After completing a set of formal procedures, the next step is naturally the part that Li Yi is most looking forward to.

The accompanying officers moved piles of silk cloth into the yard. Li Yi also saw the land deed with his own eyes. However, when all the officers stood back and stopped moving things home, Li Yi

Yi has not yet seen Wan Jin, whom he has been waiting for for a long time.

"Where is Wanjin?" Li Yi looked at one of the eunuchs and said.

Could it be that they forgot?

"That's it over there." The eunuch pointed to a rather gorgeous box among the silk cloth and said.

Li Yi looked at the box and an idea came to his mind.

Are you fucking kidding me?

This little broken box looks like it can hold ten thousand taels of gold?

I ran over and opened the box and saw the coins lying inside.

"Is this ten thousand gold?" Li Yi asked with some uncertainty.

"This is ten thousand gold, no less." The eunuch nodded and said.

Li Yi was stunned for a while, and when he raised his head again, he looked at the eunuch with a somewhat evil look.

"You two are a bit too unkind. These copper coins are only worth one or two gold at most. Where did you hide my gold? Let me tell you, I know your manager Chang very well..."

Li Yi was very angry. Even if the two of them secretly intercepted dozens or hundreds of taels of ten thousand taels of gold, he wouldn't care. After all, people who came all the way here should be paid for their hard work.

But out of these 10,000 taels of gold, there was only a pile of copper coins left. This is too evil!

This little bit of money is not something that Lao Fang cares about nowadays, right?

When the two eunuchs heard this, the corners of their mouths twitched slightly. Did County Lieutenant Li think that... ten thousand gold means ten thousand taels of gold?

If this is the case, I am afraid that if your Majesty rewards you a few more times, the treasury will be emptied...

Rong Xiaorong said that we should adjust it in the next few days and try to fix the time for future updates.
