Not long after, Zhao Yang came back, bringing with him an official from Guanglu Temple and the rain records of Jingzhao Mansion in the past month.
The official, who was old and stooped, opened the book in fear and finally said: "Your Majesty, it has not rained in Jingzhao Mansion for half a month!"
Gao Shilian was anxious and asked hurriedly: "Did you see clearly that it didn't rain on April 18?"
The official quickly turned to the 18th.
Then he said: "No, on April 18th, the sun was shining brightly and there was a moonlight at night!"
Quiet!
The imperial study room is quiet!
Everyone was stunned.
It didn't rain on April 18, so how did Qiu Wanjia, the magistrate of Huxian County, die?
What's going on with this heavy rain that shows compassion for the people outside the city?
Afterwards, everyone's eyes were focused on Du He.
Du He is such a thief. He discovered something that no one else noticed.
Is this kid still a human?
Li Er frowned and asked, "Gao Aiqing, what's going on?"
Gao Shilian hurriedly bowed and said with sincerity and fear: "Your Majesty, I am guilty. Although I read the memorial, I just looked at it and did not think about it carefully. Please punish me... This memorial was written by an official of the Ministry of Personnel.
Ministry officials naturally wrote based on reports from Jingzhao Prefecture and Hu County..."
Snapped.
Li Er slammed the memorial on the table.
"How unreasonable, really unreasonable. From Hu County, to Jingzhao Mansion, to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, many procedures have gone through, but no one has discovered the problem. Is it negligence or intentional concealment? This matter must be investigated.
It's clear, let's order the Jingzhao Mansion... no, let the Dali Temple investigate this matter in person." Li Er changed his mind temporarily.
His original intention was to ask Hu County and Jingzhao Prefecture to investigate clearly and report it to the Central Government. But when he thought of this memorial, he knew that there was a lot of trouble in it, so he directly asked Dali Temple to investigate.
It is said that the duty of Dali Temple is to investigate and deal with officials in the court. After all, Hu County is a local area and cannot get involved.
However, Huxian County is right on the edge of Chang'an, and Li Er works vigorously and resolutely.
If the emperor says it's okay, it's okay, and if it's not okay, it's okay. If the emperor says no, it's okay, and if it's okay, it's okay.
Just when Li Er was angry and the civil and military ministers were stunned, Du He had quietly sneaked to the door. He planned to escape quickly while Li Er was not prepared. This palace was heavily guarded and the rules were clear, so it was really not a good place.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he stepped out of the threshold, Li Er's voice sounded from behind him: "Du He..."
Swish.
Du He immediately turned around, bowed and said, "Just follow your Majesty's orders!"
As if nothing happened!
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Look at the face of Mr. Huyi County... He is really too thick-skinned.
When Li Er saw this, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You have made great contributions to this matter. Go back and reflect on it."
"My lord, thank you so much, Your Majesty! Get out of here!"
Before he finished speaking, Du He had already disappeared from everyone's eyes.
Everyone: "..."
…
Mid-Levels College.
Du He stood outside the yard and saw many students running on the playground in the distance.
Li Yuanshu stood next to him and whispered: "Have you heard the news about Chang'an?"
"What?" Du He looked confused.
After experiencing the turmoil with the Japanese, he felt very tired, so when he came back, he fell asleep with his head covered and the sky was dark.
Li Yuanshu said somewhat speechlessly: "You rebuked Qiu Wanjia, the magistrate of Hu County, in the palace, which caused a huge uproar. My father has ordered the Dali Temple to investigate the matter thoroughly, but there is no clue. Even the Qing Wei of the Dali Temple has no idea.
I went there in person, but there was still no news! Now, everyone thinks you are talking nonsense and don’t respect the dead!"
Du He touched his chin: "Am I really wrong?"
"Could it be that you don't know the truth?" Li Yuanshu asked in surprise.
Du He laughed: "I also guessed it. As for whether it is true or false, who knows!"
"..."
Li Yuanshu almost fainted.
If you don’t know whether it’s true or false, then you’re still sure there’s something wrong with Qiu Wanjia.
If nothing can be found about Qiu Wanjia, just wait for those guys at Yushitai to impeach you.
However, the person involved, Du He, did not have this awareness. He stared at the distant east and said melancholy: "I don't know if Japan will keep its promise. According to the treaty, they have to pay tribute to a hundred young women every year. I don't know when they can.
Send it!"
Li Yuanshu was so angry that she turned around and left: "Du He, you bastard..."
…
A few days later.
Royal study room.
Li Er convened the officials to discuss matters.
After the discussion was over, Li Er asked casually: "Is there any news from Dali Temple? How is the investigation on the case of Qiu Wanjia, the magistrate of Hu County?"
Changsun Wuji said: "Your Majesty, Dali Temple has sent people to Hu County a few days ago, but nothing was found. Mr. Wei, the minister of Dali Temple, has personally gone to Hu County, but there is no news yet. This matter is probably a lie.
!”
Gao Shilian added: "Yes, Your Majesty, I have asked someone to verify that it did not rain on April 18th. This matter was a clerical error by Huxian officials. Qiu Wanjia's death was indeed out of the city to show sympathy for the people.
On the way back, his carriage overturned and he died. This act of loyalty and courage was revealed to the Duke of Huyi County as an unjust death. However, Qiu Wanjia devoted himself to serving the people and loved them like his own son, but was described by Du He as a heinous person.
, If Your Majesty does not give an explanation to the world, I am afraid that the officials of the Tang Dynasty will be disappointed!"
"I second the proposal!"
"Your Majesty said that the king is a boat, and the people are water. Water can carry a boat and capsize it. But so many officials in the Tang Dynasty are also very important, especially officials such as county magistrates. They are diligent and diligent.
, once you serve as an official and benefit one party, wouldn’t it be heart-breaking if someone still slanders your innocence after death?”
"Seconded!"
Immediately, many officials stood up.
Due to Du Ruhui's presence, everyone rarely mentioned Du He's name, but everyone present was not a fool. This was no different from pointing at Du He's nose and scolding him.
Li Er was also puzzled.
Could it be that Du He was really fooling around this time to leave the palace?
That’s not true!
He said in a deep voice: "Xuan, Du He!"
Zhao Yang hurriedly sent Ximen Qing to lead people out of the city to find Du He.
Half an hour later, Du He hurried to the imperial study room.
As soon as he entered the door, Du He felt that the atmosphere was a bit solemn.
He hurriedly saluted and said: "Long live my emperor, Your Majesty. As soon as I opened my eyes today, I saw two magpies singing on the tree at the door. I knew that a great joy was coming today. I didn't expect that it was Your Majesty who summoned me. I am really favored."
I'm so excited..."
Du He doesn't want to flatter him.
However, what if Li Eryi gets angry and leaves himself in Tai Chi Palace to reflect on his demerits?
Anyway, flattering is a waste of words at most, but it's nothing compared to losing freedom.
But everyone turned away.
This Du He is really shameless!
I have never seen such a shameless person!
Li Er couldn't laugh or cry.
He was holding back his anger at first, but when he heard this, he actually became angry and happy.
Be calm!
I am an emperor!
You need to be able to keep your emotions and emotions in check!
