Yao Chong smiled and nodded. "I've indeed cultivated talents for you, Zhuangzi, but you don't have to thank me."
"Good, Old Yao, you're so smart!" Li Yi was impressed. You're so calm.
"Gods and Buddhas all over the sky, I understand. Otherwise, I wouldn't even know how I died. According to you, it's a natural death. "
Yao Chong said with a look that said, "I'm afraid you'll assassinate me."
Li Yi glanced at him. "Actually, the hardest thing to find out is …"
He paused. He couldn't say it. What if it got out?
He could find some clues about other murder methods except falling from a high altitude and falling into a river.
In the era without surveillance, he couldn't find out if a person drowned from a bridge.
It was too difficult to find out if the person took a mountain road or by a well.
He could find out if someone was poisoned, suffocated, or burned to death.
If he didn't tell anyone, what if someone took measures to avoid his detection …
Of course, he could use lie detection methods.
If the first time didn't work, he could test a few more times and then follow and scare them.
At this moment, the others didn't care about the two's quarrel. They were in a good mood.
Yao Chong said before that he couldn't wait for Xiao Yi. When he sent the memorials, there were many questions when Xiao Yi saw them.
Today, he saw it. In Huazhou, Xiao Yi was in charge of state affairs. Because she impeached the provincial governor and a bunch of other people, she had no choice but to take the position.
Now, the people of Huazhou had to send gifts to the Li Family Zhuangzi to express their gratitude during the holidays.
The second time, in Luoyang, Henan Province, a large number of officials were taken care of.
Xiao Yi joined in to help audit and organize the accounts. The little girl and Li Guicang worked together.
Now, Long Zenian had the memorials sent by the Mingzhou government to solve his financial problems. Looking at Xiao Yi's reaction, he instantly knew the other party's plan.
He looked at the financial appropriation documents that he was looking at out of boredom. He didn't ask anyone and directly wrote down the notes and asked for a map.
Listening to his muttering, it seemed like the entire Tang dynasty was in his heart.
If he had someone like Zhu Yi as his aide by his side …
"If Xiao Yi is my assistant, then …" Song Jing couldn't help but say it out loud.
"Sure!" Li Yi immediately followed up, "In the future, Song Zaifu will be in charge of me. If Third Brother has any questions, he will ask me first. I won't answer and will only speak when Song Zaifu nods."
"I think … it's possible!" Li Longji had wandered over at some point.
"This subject is saying that it should not be done." Song Jing was sweating profusely.
"If I say yes, what do you think?" Li Longji asked softly.
"It's snowing heavily. The mountain is collapsing. Run! I'm not dreaming. Don't stop me.
Eh? You guys … Xiao Yi, quick, prescribe some medicine for her. She's been talking in her sleep recently.
It was like this a few days ago. In my dream, I conquered a large territory for His Majesty. His Majesty wanted to reward me, but I said that it was all thanks to His Majesty's heavenly virtue.
When she woke up, she was in a daze. I don't even have the strength to tie up a chicken. How can I compare to Her Majesty in her prime? "
Song Jing was already so old, but he was actually starting to perform.
Li Yi said with a sympathetic expression, "Old Song, it's good that you have such intentions. Don't worry about your health. I have a recipe for nourishment.
One is gold, and the other is pearls. Both have the effect of calming the mind, calming the soul, and stabilizing the heart.
Tomorrow, I'll send someone to deliver Old Song a dish of stewed red prawns on a gold plate and boiled pearls in clear water. What do you think? "
"Is it good to blatantly bribe people?" Song Jing asked softly. He was putting on an act to make everyone happy.
"Dongzhu." Qingsong No. 2 ran over and hugged the map.
The others immediately removed the things on the table and spread the map out.
Li Yi began to talk about the local mineral resources. There were so many good things, but the local people were poor.
"The power of knowledge is like the oatmeal stone. Those people's motives were wrong, but the result was good. They took the initiative to surrender."
Li Yi talked about a group of people in Henan Province who had picked up oatmeal stone. In the end, they treated it as something bad and cheated others.
The Tang dynasty allowed people to surrender as long as they didn't cause harm to others. For example, if they surrendered, they were willing to compensate and accept punishment.
Under normal circumstances, they wouldn't be judged. The purpose of the law was to intimidate and guide, not the result.
Unless they killed someone, surrendering also depended on the situation. It was different from cheating.
It depended on the result. If the person died, what would the result be? Self-defense was another matter.
Bi Goo looked at the map again, "Xiao Yi! The imperial court paid for the road to be built to the south of the bay. "
"He asked the imperial court to prepare livestock and tools for farming. He didn't ask for the road. He asked them to build their own houses." Li Yi pointed at the memorial.
"He's the Provincial Governor, and I'm the Head of the Secretariat. I'll do whatever he asks me to do. Even if you ask me not to collect taxes from the Li Family Zhuangzi, I can't do that. "
Bi Goo emphasized status and position. Do you think all the officials in the prefectures are like you?
How many people will eat wontons in front of me when I'm reviewing memorials?
"So you won't give it to me?" Li Yi asked.
"You said you won't give it to me. How did you approve it? You said you were the Head of the Secretariat at the last minute. "
Bi Goo roared. After roaring, he was in a good mood! Xiao Yi, you also have a day like this.
"I'm sleepy. I'm going to sleep."
Li Yi realized that he wasn't in the right state of mind. How did he fall into the trap?
After saying that, he ran away. In any case, I've already given you the things. You can deal with it yourselves.
"Then what do you say?" Li Longji waited for Li Yi to leave, and his face darkened.
According to his thinking, the other party should just admit defeat and hand over the benefits.
With the situation last night, what else do you want to do?
This morning, find a place to eat. Watch my Little Brother Yi eat a bowl of wontons. If you have any memorials, just bring them to me and review them.
If Little Brother Yi sneezes, has a runny nose, and says that your lives can be exchanged for Little Brother Yi's instant recovery, I will kill you.
Sima Chengzhen said, "Your Majesty, they said that they had comprehended a lot last night. Continue to comprehend today, and Buddhism and Taoism together tomorrow. "
He hadn't eaten breakfast yet, so he went to talk to those people first.
He wasn't in a good mood. He felt that he had been deceived.
He chose to stand on Li Yi's side.
There was a struggle for Dao, and there was a struggle for Buddhism.
There was no peace at all. The various schools of Buddhism competed fiercely.
For example, which was the first sutra, Mahayana and Hinayana were competing.
Taoism was still competing for the right to speak and orthodoxy.
If the country was weak, they would fight for the right to be the bishop of a country. If the country was strong, they would fight for a chance to survive.
Confucianism was also involved. Scholars and officials were roped in by all sides.
Which official didn't come into contact with them? Only Li Dongzhu.
Li Dongzhu translated many Buddhist scriptures, annotated many Taoist books, and even brought out Confucianism.
Finally, he printed newspapers to teach the people of the Tang dynasty to read and write and to understand common sense.
This included some small prescriptions for treatment. The people could use the medicinal herbs that could be found on the surrounding mountains, roadsides, and riversides.
The most obvious one was to prevent wind. Once a lump appeared on the body, it would dissipate after boiling water and washing it.
There were also dandelion roots and chicken claws.
Some people prayed to Buddhism to seek Dao, recited scriptures, and refined pills, while others followed Li Dongzhu to accumulate manure and fertilize the fields.
Was the salvation of all living beings a sutra or a skill? According to the newspapers, one was called spiritual civilization, and the other was called material civilization.
Li Dongzhu grasped the two civilizations together. No religion could compare.
