"Bang~!"

"Xinfeng County is only a hundred miles away from Chang'an City, but on the third day of the locust plague, grain merchants drove up the price of grain. The court's three orders and five applications were regarded as deaf ears by some people! Humph! Cut off their heads?"

In the Ganlu Hall, after reading the message, Li Er took a picture of the dragon case and said coldly with a livid face.

Seeing Li Er's anger, the palace maids and servants in the hall kept silent, and did not dare to let out the air.

Li Tai had a calm face and did not speak.

"Zhao Song, immediately sent an order to Sun Wuji and Liu Dewei, and ordered the Ministry of Officials and Dali Temple to immediately send officials to Xinfeng County to thoroughly investigate the matter of the grain merchants driving up the price of grain. Not a single one can be spared! No matter who is involved, I will find them all and punish them severely!"

After a moment of silence in the hall, Li Er said with a gloomy face.

"Old slave obeys!"

Zhao Song bowed his hands, ready to take orders and leave.

"Wait!"

However, Li Er interrupted: "Fang Xuanling is hereby sent an order to ask Zhongshu Province to send another official document to the prefectures and counties in Guanzhong, strictly ordering the counties to stabilize grain prices. And the prefects of the state will be severely punished and will not be tolerated~!"

"Hey~!"

Zhao Song bowed to the promise, and seeing that Li Er had no other orders, he cupped his hands and exited the hall.

Li Er turned his attention to Li Tai at this time, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Qing Que, the second and third killer projects of Yanhuang Academy should be strictly kept secret from the outside world, right?"

Li Tai shuddered in his heart, and suddenly had a bad premonition, he cupped his hands and said: "Father, the reason why the mountain chief asked us to keep it secret is to prevent the core technology of the academy from being used by those who have bad intentions against me. peeping thief..."

"Humph! I didn't say that what he did was wrong! But if you are guarding against outsiders, don't you have to beware of me~?"

Li Er's eyes turned cold, and he interrupted Li Tai's words directly, saying, "If I hadn't pressed you for a question today, I'm afraid I still don't know about your second and third killer projects, Li Zexuan is of course for the Tang Dynasty. Interests are considered, but don't forget, I am the master of this country~!"

As a prince, they don't like the feeling of being concealed and blinded, because it will make them feel that things are beyond their control. Although Li Er is a generation of Ming Jun, in this regard, he is no exception!

Even though it was midsummer now, Li Tai felt a tinge of coolness in the Hall of Nectar. At this time, he remembered that his father was never a gentle-hearted gentleman, but a man who could conquer the world and kill his brother and prisoner. Father's slaying decisive man!

"Father! My son is frightened! My son never thought to hide this from you. It's just that the academy's affairs are really busy recently, and my son has no time to worry about it. It's not that he has the intention to let the father be deceived!

I believe the same is true of the mountain chief. Recently, the locust plague broke out in the Guanzhong area. The mountain chief was busy with disaster relief, so he did not report this to the father and emperor~! Besides, I heard from the mountain chief that the father had already mentioned to you about the improvement of the telegraph machine, so this time I did not rush to inform you! Please don't hold grudges against Shan Chang because of this! "

The little fat man's mind changed rapidly and explained quickly.

He knew that if he didn't explain things clearly to Li Er today, not only would he be unlucky, but Li Zexuan might also be unlucky. Since ancient times, there have been grudges between monarchs and ministers, and it is generally the ministers who are unlucky!

When Li Er heard the words, his expression became slightly stern, and after a long silence, he finally said: "Li Zexuan did mention to me about the improvement of the telegraph before, I asked him to do it, and I will give him the manpower and material resources needed, this time. It happened to catch up with the outbreak of a large locust plague in the Guanzhong area. I can't blame you! That's all! That's it! I'm not a narrow-minded person, so I won't blame you for this! But next time, if something similar happens again, don't lie to my father. King!"

Li Tai breathed a sigh of relief, just when Li Er was silent just now, he was ready to be punished, and at this moment his hanging heart finally fell, "Thank you, Father! The emperor has a broad mind and appoints worthy people, and he will surely become a generation of benevolent emperors that surpasses Qin Huang and Han Wu!"

Li Er looked at Li Tai with a smile but not a smile, and said, "Oh! Qingque, you are flattering the father now? But the father didn't see it. You are so protective of Li Zexuan now?"

Naturally, what he said was that when he was angry just now, Li Tai pleaded for Li Zexuan!

Li Tai looked startled. Once upon a time, he and Li Zexuan were mortal enemies, and he was still looking for trouble with Li Zexuan, but now, not only has he become Li Zexuan's student, but he is willing to risk being punished by his father to help Li Zexuan Excuse me, how did things get like this?

Pictures from the past kept flashing in Li Tai's mind. For a long time, Li Tai bowed to Li Er seriously:

"Father! The Chief of the Mountain is not only knowledgeable, but also a person worthy of respect! My son thinks that the Tang Dynasty needs a person like the Chief of the Mountain!"

Seeing his beloved son complimenting another person in front of him, Li Er was still a little jealous, but because of his face, he was too embarrassed to show it. Moreover, what Li Tai said was generally indifferent. Wrong, so he waved his hands a little indifferently and said:

"Qing Que, you have grown up! Go and say hello to your mother, and then you can do what you want~!"

"Yes! Father!"

Li Tai cupped his hands and was about to leave, when he suddenly looked back and said, "Father, my son is not.

By your side, please take care of your dragon body~! "

Li Er's heart warmed, and he laughed: "Father, the emperor knows! Go! Go!"

Li Tai nodded, then turned and left.

......................................................

the next day.

The headline position of "Datang Daily" prominently published a piece of news - "Who is to blame for soaring food prices? Zhongshu Province issued 108 official documents together, strictly ordering the affected counties to stabilize food prices! 》

One of the news is about the phenomenon of Zhang Xiongfei hoarding food and driving up food prices in Xinfeng County, and just yesterday evening, Zhang Xiongfei had been detained by the Xinfeng County Yap. Li Er personally instructed him to be executed three days later!

You must know that since the Five Husbands rioted in China, the population of the Central Plains has dropped sharply. After experiencing the wars at the end of the Sui Dynasty, the Tang Dynasty has always pursued a policy of recuperating and recuperating. Even if the prisoner is sentenced to death, it must be reported to each level, and the execution of the death penalty can only be carried out by the emperor's own instructions!

Even in the Zhenguan Dynasty, even Li Er had to obtain the consent of the courtiers to determine a person's death sentence.

According to historical records, when Taizong ascended the throne, he discussed with his ministers how to "make the law fair and fair", and according to Wang Gui's suggestion, let someone who is "just, upright, kind, and worthy of punishment" serve as "judges". After Zhang Yungu was killed, Taizong immediately remembered that the young judge was a faithful executor of his "prudent punishment" policy, committed to reversing the abuse of punishment in the previous generation. He played chess with detainees and exempted the mentally ill from guilt, all of which were implementing the policy of "prudent punishment". It was a pity that he had no chance to defend himself when he was killed.

So Taizong ordered: In the future, if the execution is executed, even if the emperor orders the execution immediately, the execution must be repeated three times. Soon he ordered the addition of the three-player to five in Beijing, three outside, and one for evil rebellion and slave-handmaid-killing. Among them, the five replays refer to one replay two days before the final, one replay one day before the final, and three handovers on the day of the final. No wine or meat is allowed on the day of execution, and entertainment activities are suspended. Menxia Province's case of "death is acceptable according to the law" should be brought up in a timely manner.

Such a complex death penalty replay system has greatly reduced the number of criminals sentenced to death in Zhenguan. According to historical records, in the three years of Zhenguan, only 29 prisoners were sentenced to death in the country. Of course, this was also because Li Er wanted to preserve the limited domestic The helpless action made by the labor force!

However, the social order and social atmosphere of the Zhenguan Dynasty did not become chaotic because of this. On the contrary, the social order of the Zhenguan Dynasty was unbelievably good. "As far as the sea is in the east, the Antarctic Five Ridges are not closed to the outside, and they do not take food when they travel, but they are given to the road!"

This time, Li Er directly sentenced Zhang Xiongfei to death, more with the nature of killing chickens and warning monkeys. He wants to look at other states and counties in the Guanzhong area, and he wants grain merchants in various places to think about Zhang Xiongfei's fate before driving up grain prices. !

"The price of grain in Xinfeng County has risen to five cents a stone a few days ago? These grain merchants are really unconscionable!"

"No! This Zhang Xiongfei kills well!"

"That's right! You should kill the chickens to warn the monkeys! Let those profiteers dare to take advantage of the locust plague to drive up food prices?"

People near Chang'an City applauded and cheered for Zhang Xiongfei's tragic ending after seeing the headlines on "Datang Daily" for the first time! They are lucky to live at the feet of the emperor, because during this period of time, the price of grain in Chang'an City has not fluctuated, and the grain of the major grain shops is still sold at the original price. It's no different than before!

"It's better for Chang'an City, the price of food hasn't skyrocketed!"

"If you want me to say that this should be due to the Marquis of Yongan!"

"Oh? How can you see it?"

"The Marquis of Yongan led the Tianji Brigade to quickly wipe out the locusts in Lantian County, which has greatly stabilized people's hearts! Besides, the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce also has some grain stores in Chang'an City, and they have enough food there. How dare the grain merchants raise prices?"

"Well! There is some truth to this!"

"Hey, look! Lord Hou's Tianji team actually wiped out the locusts in Xinfeng County and Weinan County one day yesterday!"

"What? Is this too fast~?"

"It's true! It's true! Moreover, Lord Hou also issued a notice to borrow chickens raised in captivity from the people of the affected counties, and return them after the locust plague is over. If there is any loss, double compensation! The chicken brigade already has 350,000 chickens~!"

"Master Hou wants to borrow the chickens raised by the common people? Great! I still have thirty chickens in my family. I don't know where Master Hou is now? It's too late to deliver them!"

"I don't know! I think this notice from Lord Hou should be for those states and counties who are waiting for disaster relief, right? When the Tianji Brigade arrives, they will directly send their captive chickens there!"

"Eh? It's really possible! By the way! My brother-in-law's relief work in Xianyang County. Lord Hou will definitely be passing through Xianyang these days. I have to ask someone to bring a letter there, and I must send all the chickens in the family to Lord Hou. This is a matter of boundless merit! Even if you lose a few chickens, you won't have to pay for it!"

"That's right! That's right! Lord Hou is running around with the children in Lantian County for the sake of the people affected by the disaster in Guanzhong. There is no reason for us to stand by and watch! If you can contribute, you will feel at ease~!"

"Yes! My family also has relatives in Xianyang County. They have to prepare chickens and wait for Hou Ye to lend them to Hou Ye!"

After seeing Li Zexuan's "Chicken Signing Notice" published in "Datang Daily", the people were all enthusiastic and could not wait to send all the chickens in the family to the Tianji Brigade, but the people in Chang'an City

I don't know where Li Zexuan's Tianji team has gone now, and it is obviously unrealistic to send chickens in the past, so those people who are thinking quickly thought of getting their relatives living in other disaster-stricken states and counties to prepare their own chickens. Give it to the Tianji team!

In fact, these warm-hearted people in the capital don't have to do this at all, because the speed of the "Datang Daily" is far faster than the speed of their message!

It has been more than a year since Li Zexuan founded "Datang Daily" at the beginning of last year. The editorial department of "Datang Daily" has not only established offices in various prefectures and counties, but also established a complete "communication network". Before dawn in the morning, more than a dozen fast horses rushed out of Lantian County with the latest issue of "Datang Daily". At this time, more than 20 counties around Chang'an City were basically the same as Chang'an City. Like the common people, I saw the latest issue of the newspaper!

As for states and counties further afield, it will take a few days to receive today's newspapers!

So, in the county towns around Chang'an City, there are already people around the county office asking when the Tianji Brigade will come to their county. They have already prepared chickens!

But how could the county magistrates know when Li Zexuan went to their county?

But they can't ignore the raging public opinion, especially in the context of the current imperial court ordering states and counties to hurry up and actively respond to disasters, it is even more impossible for them to ignore public opinion. Xinfeng County is a living example. Immediately dismissed!

Therefore, in the face of the raging public opinion, the magistrates of the counties quickly dispatched yamen to the prefectures and counties where Li Zexuan is located to inquire about Li Zexuan's "military route". How many chickens are they willing to lend, and told the people to mark their chickens’ legs in advance, and then drive them to the county yamen to be kept by the yamen officers, and send them directly to Li Zexuan when the Tianji brigade arrives!

As a result, the backyards of the county government offices in many counties have become lively chicken farms, and the county magistrates, county magistrates, and government officials have transformed themselves into breeders!
