Living leisurely in Tang Dynasty

Chapter 131

That night, Xu Jingzong didn't sleep well, and there was news from the bottom that Dong Xiaoyi had brought someone to Yin's village.

Although Dong Xiaoyi's words were flawless, Xu Jingzong still smelled something bad from it, and he became more determined to send Li Yuanying back. Wu Zhiyuan’s family is not the only one who lost her father in the past two years. When he told people to spread rumors, he picked a few houses at random from the villages Li Yuanying had been to. Money appeasement, very generous!

Xu Jingzong felt that this would happen. After all, Li Yuanying was a relative of the emperor. Isn't it normal for the relatives of the emperor to spread some romantic affairs? He didn't say that he committed crimes, at most he just didn't pay much attention to it, and he didn't even let the little lady during the mourning period be spared. At that time, the superiors will realize that it was a mistake to let Li Yuanying out, and call him back early!

Even though he had already prepared for it, Xu Jingzong was still not at ease, so he asked someone to go out of the city early the next morning to talk to the Yin family's Zhuangzi, and let the person sent by Li Yuanying to tell the Yin family about everything.

The Yin family was a little confused. Dong Xiaoyi wanted to inspect their village, asked them how many people they had, how many fields they had, and also had an expression of "everyone understands". They make money, so they all confessed the truth clearly!

Could it be that Li Yuanying sent someone to find out about them? Everyone wears a pair of trousers, how could Li Yuanying be so shameless? !

The steward hurriedly wrote this matter in a letter and handed it back to Chang'an, asking for Chang'an's opinion.

On Li Yuanying's side, he got the situation of the Yin family's village, and Dong Xiaoyi's routine skills were top-notch, and he found out the bottom of his hidden household, Yintian.

After reading the letter, he was sure that what Wu Zhiyuan said was true.

If there were not many hidden households in the Yin family, they would not be afraid that someone would tell them about naturalization. Although not everyone is willing to return to their original place to live a hard life and bear taxes and corvee, if they are persuaded, they will collectively go to the naturalization division. If they don’t have a field, wouldn’t that mean that they lost a group of laborers who plowed for them and took care of them? Therefore, when people's hearts fluctuate, they will come to a ruthless one, so that everyone will remember the lesson and dare not mention it again!

Unfortunately, the family of the little lady whom Wu Zhiyuan fell in love with became victims.

Even if it is a registered domestic slave these days, the master only needs to report a plausible reason to kill, let alone these "black households" without household registration.

Li Yuanying looked at the Yinhu and Yintian records in front of him and was quiet for a while, then asked someone to fetch pen and ink, wrote a letter and returned to Beijing with the evidence Dong Xiaoyi had brought, and asked Dong Xiaoyi to send it to the Ministry of Household Affairs. This matter is too offensive, it cannot harm his eldest nephew, nor can it harm Wei Zheng. The household registration is in the charge of the household department, so it should be reported to the household department!

Li Yuanying thought his thoughts were reasonable.

Unexpectedly, before he finished writing his letter, the person in charge of watching the government office came back, saying that Xu Jingzong had indeed sent someone to Yinjiazhuangzi. Moreover, Xu Jingzong also asked someone to go to Chang'an, and the guard who was in charge of following that person came back and said that Xu Jingzong asked people to spread news about Li Yuanying in Chang'an.

Li Yuanying asked strangely, "What news?"

The guard's expression was also quite strange: "Say you like a peasant girl who is still in mourning."

Li Yuanying couldn't help but glanced at Wei Shu who was sitting next to him. His sister is so cute, he won't fall in love with others!

The guard said: "When the watchers came back in the morning, the rumors changed. Some people said that Your Highness, you like widows who have just become widows!" In order to have sex with King Teng, she kept fanning the grave with a fan. Someone asked her what was going on, and she said that she had made an agreement with the ghost husband to remarry after the soil on his grave was dry, and she couldn't wait to marry King Teng!

After hearing this, Li Yuanying felt that the person who came up with this story was very creative, and said enthusiastically, "Did you see who made it up? Did you write it down? Go back and find someone to make up the story for me!"

Wei Shu heard the guards report that Xu Jingzong was going to spread rumors to harm Li Yuanying's reputation, and she was still very nervous for Li Yuanying. Seeing that Li Yuanying not only listened with gusto, but also wanted to poach someone to tell him a story, Wei Shu felt that she was worrying for nothing. She grabbed Li Yuanying's hand and wanted to pinch him, but she couldn't bear it, so she could only squeeze gently His palm.

Li Yuanying felt that his hand was pinched by Wei Shu, and looked down, it was really pinched. When he became interested, he held Wei Shu's hand and squeezed her palm back, causing Wei Shu's ears to turn red. Li Yuanying let go of his hand with a smile, and calmly ended the small movements between the two of them, and wrote the letter in a hurry. It's over, let Dong Xiaoyi take the letter back to Chang'an with the guards who followed him, and sue him early!

As for how to thoroughly investigate this matter, that's not what he should worry about, anyway, he doesn't want to deal with people like Xu Jingzong anymore. At first, he only thought that they were not very good-looking, and he tried to dig out their beautiful insides, but he ran into such a thing within a few days after going down.

After Dong Xiaoyi and the others left, Li Yuanying closed the door to thank the guests and did not see anyone.

Di Renjie and the others were also in a bad mood. They also read the evidence brought back by Dong Xiaoyi and others, all of which showed a fact: what Wu Zhiyuan said was true.

Fortunately, during this time, Dong Xiaoyi was preparing for the library of Huxian County. The place where they lived temporarily collected a lot of new and old books, as well as the local county chronicles of Huxian County.

Back then, Xiao He helped Liu Bang govern the world by relying on the books and classics of the Qin Dynasty. They should also read the local records of Hu County carefully, and they should not rely entirely on the experience that Xu Jingzong asked them to tell them—they believed too much in other people's experience before. Only then will he be led by the nose all the time, and his every move will be clearly grasped by others!

When it comes to reading, Wu Mei is the best. She quickly categorizes the books that should be read, and assigns tasks to everyone by category. Several people had the thought of shame, and switched from the state of thanking guests behind closed doors to the state of reading behind closed doors in a blink of an eye, waiting for Chang'an to deal with this matter before showing their fists!

In the past, Xu Jingzong's method might have worked. But unfortunately, there was a big storm in Chang'an last year, which directly brought Li Tai to the fiefdom. No one would be foolish enough to publicize the quarrel between the royal families. Xu Jingzong spent his days away from home earlier, and he had no chance to find out how Li Tai was sent to the fiefdom.

According to Xu Jingzong, isn't it normal for a peddler from a county town to Chang'an to spread some local news

So Xu Jingzong did it, not only did it, but also asked people to stay for two more days to fan the flames. As a result, the rumors did intensify, but the people he sent were quickly taken away, not to ordinary places, but to Dali Temple.

Is that place accessible to ordinary people? It is simply the highest judicial organ in the country, and it is no small matter to enter! The person in charge of delivering the message was frightened and stupid on the spot, crying and saying that there are seniors and juniors, and that he was just being confused when he passed on those words, thinking it was no big deal. Ask who instigated it, and he will know everything, saying that Xu Jingzong asked him to come, and Xu Jingzong gave the material, and according to the yamen servant who went to work, it is true! Therefore, he is not the creator of rumors, but just a porter of rumors!

As for why Xu Jingzong did this, he didn't know, he did what his superiors told him to do, how could he ask why when he did something

After the interrogation at Dali Temple, seeing that there was really no more information, he passed the result to His Majesty Li Er.

His Majesty Li Er was neither happy nor angry, and no one could see that he was dissatisfied with the result, so he only asked who the magistrate of Juhu County was.

The people who reported back and forth understood that Xu Jingzong was going to be investigated, and reported Xu Jingzong's name without hesitation.

His Majesty Li Er really said: "A thorough investigation."

The people of Dali Temple took the order to retreat, thinking in their hearts that Xu Jingzong was too unlucky, the method was used by the king of Wei, although it was used in reverse, it would also make His Majesty Li Er think of the king of Wei who was kicked to fiefdom what!

What's wrong with you playing, you actually picked what King Wei had played to play! You are not the beloved son of a saint! Well now, wait to die!

Not many people in the officialdom are clean. His Majesty Li Er even added the word "Che" in front of Zha. It seems that Xu Jingzong can die completely this time, so he doesn't have to struggle anymore!

As soon as the officials of Dali Temple left, Tang Jian begged to see His Majesty Li Er with a look of embarrassment on his face. Seeing that His Majesty Li Er was not in a good mood, Tang Jian looked bitter, as long as it was, Li Yuanying threw him a hot potato. This guy is obviously Wei Zheng's prospective grandson-in-law, but he just doesn't submit evidence to Li Yuanying, but to the Ministry of Household Affairs!

No matter how bad it is, can't you just submit it to His Majesty Li Er

Sure enough, it's not that the whole family doesn't enter the house. His Highness Prince Teng is also a ghost, and knows to let others go to thunder.

Tang Jian brought the evidence of Yin Tian, a hermit from the Yin family, and the case statement written by Li Yuanying himself to the imperial court.

It’s fine if it’s not brought to him. He can turn a blind eye, but Li Yuanying is obviously not a person who likes to settle down. He can't stop it!

In order not to get into trouble, Tang Jian personally ran to show His Majesty Li Er what kind of hornet's nest his younger brother had stabbed in Hu County.

If it is really necessary to thoroughly investigate Yinto Yintian, then it is not a matter of one or two families, it may offend all the aristocratic families! Someone like Li Yuanying who sent people to the door to get close first, and then turned around and sent up the trick as evidence, might be listed as a refusal by all the aristocratic families!

After reading the evidence presented by Tang Jian, His Majesty Li Er was still neither happy nor angry. Had it not been for the case of Yintian Yinhu, he would not have ordered the floating and homeless people from all over the place to come and join them last year.

After reading the case written by Li Yuanying, His Majesty Li Er's expression changed a little. Li Yuanying wrote clearly how he met Wu Zhiyuan, how to ask the whole story, and how to induce all parties to act.

After reading it, His Majesty Li Er realized that the source of the rumors was actually Li Yuanying himself, who deliberately praised the little lady for her good looks!

I have to say that this case record with clear statements and sincere feelings is very well written. After reading it, His Majesty Li Er also felt that there was such an evil thing at the feet of the emperor, which really deserves the name of chastity!

His Majesty Li Er ordered the left and right: "Go and declare Yin Yuan to enter the palace."

If Yin Yuan knew about this, then he could not escape the guilt; if Yin Yuan didn't know, it was lax in family management and he had to beat him hard. How about other people's Zhuangzi not being dead, and this kind of thing happened to your Zhuangzi

When His Majesty Li Er sent someone to summon Yin Yuan to the Yin family, Yin Yuan happened to be at home and described his uncle Yin Kaishan to Yan Liben. In fact, he had never seen Yin Kaishan when he was young, but he was his heir anyway. The deeds of Yin Kaishan are also very precious, and he tried his best to pick out Yin Kaishan's most proud achievements and tell them to Yan Liben.

During this period of time, Yan Liben was tortured by his relatives or his own deity until his brain ached. He deeply felt that he was out of his mind when he cheated on Li Yuanying.

Hearing that His Majesty Li Er had summoned him, both Yan Liben and Yin Yuan were taken aback for a moment. Yan Liben even suspected that the person who delivered the decree had misheard, maybe His Majesty Li Er wanted to see him! After all, Yin Yuan didn't hold any great power, so how could His Majesty Li Er want to see him for no reason

Yan Liben didn't ask any questions. Yin Yuan wanted to enter the palace for an audience, so he didn't want to stay any longer. Returning to the mansion after thinking about it, Yan Liben heard the rumors from the people below that Li Yuanying fell in love with the pretty widow.

Yan Liben was shocked.

Who has such a short memory and dares to spread messages about Li Yuanying

According to his brother, is someone going to be unlucky again this time? !

The author has something to say:

The little prince sneezed several times!

The little prince muttered: What are you all saying about me behind my back! (pointing)

The story of the widow fanning the grave comes from Feng Menglong's "Warning the World Hengyan", I don't quite remember it, it should be one of the three words! In retrospect, this should have been my inspiration for novels when I was a child! There are a lot of gossip on the above, for example, Wang Anshi wrote a poem about the flowers falling. Su Shi saw it and thought that the poem was not written correctly, so he answered two sentences, saying how the chrysanthemums will fall at this time. Wang Anshi took a look and knew that Su Shi had changed it, so he demoted Su Shi to the place he had been to to see if the chrysanthemums would not fall at this time! After reading it, Su Shi felt remorseful and felt that he was short-sighted! (no, not like that)

The matter of fanning the grave was written by Feng Menglong. Zhuangzi learned from his master that he was about to fly, but he had a wife, so he didn't fly! One day on his way home, he saw a widow fanning the grave, and he felt so impressed, he went up to help the widow dry the fan on the grave, and brought the white fan home to tell his wife about it. The wife said that she would definitely be faithful! Then, Chuang Tzu faked his death and turned himself into a handsome friend to attend the funeral. Then the handsome man fell ill and said that he had to eat human brains to be cured, so his wife opened the coffin and wanted to chop Chuang Tzu's head off... So his wife committed suicide in shame, and Chuang Tzu sang loudly. Ascended!

However, it is also recorded in "Zhuangzi" that Zhuangzi's wife died, and his friend Huizi went to see him, and saw him knocking on a clay pot and singing loudly, very free and easy...
