Li Kuan didn't know everything that happened in the palace, he was busy sharing his joy with others. Everyone learned that their grievances were gone, and they were successfully naturalized and placed under the jurisdiction of the officials, which means that they completely got rid of the shackles on their bodies and regained their freedom from then on.
Everyone knelt down and thanked Li Kuan. If he hadn't tried his best to help, he would not have been charged. Seeing that they were so happy, Li Kuan was in a good mood and directly ordered people to buy wine and vegetables on the street. Not only they, but the prisoners in prison also received this gift.
After Li Kuan became the prisoner of Dali Temple, the living environment of these prisoners has been greatly improved, especially the prisoners in the hardship prison are grateful to Li Kuan. Li Kuan drastically restructured the cell. The original cell with more than ten people was organized into eight to ten people, and the environment was much better than before.
Cockroaches, mice, and ants were once seen most in the prison, and the foul smell was dispersed a lot. Li Kuan specially ordered people to buy incense, just to let them enjoy the last dignity. Even if he is a prisoner, Li Kuan treats him equally.
Li Kuan enters the prison from time to time to personally inspect the environment, including the requirements put forward by the prisoners. Li Kuan also does his best to give the greatest degree of satisfaction. It can be said that in just half a month, Li Kuan has completely controlled everything in Dali Temple Prison. Except for a small number of prisoners, most prisoners agree with Li Kuan.
In addition, Li Kuan will divide male and female prisoners according to time, come out of the prison to bask in the sun, and even let them play games together. This is a pain for a group of prisoners in the jail, and it is not afraid to decapitate. They said they were unwilling to do anything.
In desperation, Li Kuan had to take off the government and take the jailer to play games with him, and they slowly accepted it. The atmosphere of the current Dali monastery is very different from before. Instead, it is more like a family enjoying themselves.
The previous Dali Temple Prisons were indifferent and cold. They regarded life as weeds, ignored everything, and slowly disappeared from humanity. After Li Kuan found out, he immediately tried to change this situation. Under Li Kuan's management, the prisoners in Dali Temple always had a grateful heart for him.
"My lord, what's the happy event today? Could it be that my wife is pregnant and my lord has a future?"
Everyone was taken to the martial arts training ground without tables and chairs. Everyone sat on the floor, while the female prisoners were placed on the other side. Even if they had an idea, they didn't dare to come boldly, so they had to look at them eagerly and hope Mei quenched their thirst.
"If my wife is pregnant, there is enough wine and food!" Li Kuan promised, patting his chest. Everyone claps their hands and applauded, "Since it's not the wife who is pregnant, why add wine and vegetables to the little one!"
"Today is a special day, are you all of them!" Li Kuan smiled and pointed to the twelve people including Chen Yuliu and Zhang Lingying beside him, and said: "They used to be prisoners in Dali Temple just like you are. become free!"
"What's free?" They are naturally familiar with Chen Yuliu and others, but what makes them more curious is what Li Kuan means, and I heard Li Kuan explain: "Because their grievances have been washed away today. And the current emperor promised to let them serve as errands in the prison of Dali Temple to get their salaries!"
"Is this serious?"
Chen Yuliu, Zhang Lingying and others nodded and said yes. Everyone had a happy smile on their faces. Everyone was shocked, especially the person who had competed with He Jitong and He Xiuqi for the spot was even more regretful, if it weren’t for him. How can selfishness miss the opportunity.
"As long as I, Li Yun, is in the prison of Dali Temple for one day, you can tell me any grievances you have. As long as I can do it, I will never say anything!" Li Kuan solemnly promised, except for the twelve of them. In addition, there is really no one who cried out injustice with Li Kuan. As for the prisoners in slavery status, there are many prisoners, and they are indeed compelled. But Li Kuan can’t do anything about it. “After this, I will advise the emperor, as long as you really repent and show up in prison If you are good, your sentence can be reduced or exempted. How about letting you go home and reunite with your family soon
"it is good!"
Everyone applauded that the reduced sentence of imprisonment did not exist in the Tang Dynasty. The sentence was three years to three years, and ten years to ten years. Prisoners with families heard Li Kuan say this, and they did not trust them because of Chen Yuliu and others. They trust Li Kuan very much. In their eyes, Li Kuan is like their savior.
"My lord, there is someone from the palace!"
Cui Chong hurriedly ran in from the outside, but saw that Li Kuanzheng and the prisoner were like brothers. This kind of thing is no surprise to him, but today is something special. For some reason, the father-in-law of the Forbidden City actually appeared outside the Dali Temple prison with his hands. There is also an edict.
Li Kuan also drank a few cups, but it was not a big deal, but he was shocked when he heard the people in the palace. Drinking at work is definitely a taboo, and it is the same taboo both now and in the future. Li Kuan never dreamed of what someone suddenly came to do in the palace. While he was thinking about it, Wu Gonggong brought people in and saw that the martial arts court was full of prisoners, especially Li Kuan, the prince who actually ate and drank with them. With the slightest prince's status, it is more like a mess.
"Supervisor Wu Zhong, this..." Li Kuan smiled and didn't know what to explain. Duke Wu couldn't shake his head in tears or laughter. Fortunately, it was him who came to spread the edict. Seeing those prisoners, he said loudly: "Send an edict to the emperor, and His Royal Highness Chu will take it!"
"Chen Li Yun took the decree!" Li Kuan hurriedly bowed to greet the imperial edict. As for the prisoners and jailers below, they were all stunned and knelt on the ground to listen to the edict. Only then did they know that Li Kuan's true identity was dignified. Lord, this makes them really wonder what to say.
"The king of Chu has done a good job in investigating the case and has promoted the post of Dali Temple's prince!" Li Kuan thought there was a long sentence, but he did not expect that Duke Wu would say such a sentence, without explaining anything else, he raised his head suspiciously, and said: " Is this over?"
Duke Wu grinned irritably: "His Royal Highness, don't you want to hear the original text?"
"Let's forget this!" Li Kuan realized that it was not that there was no full text, but that Wu Gonggong specifically explained the core. He left the rest to him. Li Kuan took the edict and it turned out to be densely packed text, including the Zhongshu She. Li Kuan was too lazy to look at the signatures of Ren, Shangshu, etc., so he took the edict and put it away, cautiously whispering: "Supervisor Wu, please don't tell me about this!"
Wu Gonggong asked with a smile: "If the emperor investigates this matter, the old slave can't afford it!"
"As long as Wu Zhongjian keeps the secret, how about I will give you two jars of wine from the palace?" Li Kuan was caught upright, and had to try to please Wu Gonggong. The wine he brewed himself is definitely the best in the world, even the entire court. No one knows the point where no one knows.
When Wu Gonggong heard Li Kuan say that he had brewed the wine with his own hands, he suddenly said in a deep voice, "His Royal Highness, did the old slave see anything just now?"
Li Kuan secretly wiped the cold sweat. As long as Duke Wu didn't tell the emperor, there would be no problem with this matter, and he quickly replied, "Of course not!"
"Since there is nothing wrong, the old slave will return to the palace!" Li Kuan personally took Wu Gonggong out of the door of Dali Temple, wiped a cold sweat secretly, and whispered again: "The wine will be delivered tomorrow!"
Duke Wu left contentedly. As for whether he would tell the emperor everything, Li Kuan believed that he could not say nothing, and it was nothing to drink, so Li Kuan continued to go back and talk to everyone about the wine. (End of this chapter)
