Everyone adjusted their mentality and continued to listen.
They understood the news from before the third of March.
Li Yi had just disembarked when he found a place to settle down. At the same time, he had a way to contact the Luoyang County yamen.
Then, the Henan Governor, Bi Goo, personally rushed over and had a good chat with Li Yi. They stayed there at night, and water was drawn from the well on the mountain that night.
Many commoners were hired. The wages were high, and the food was good. Many children also went to help and received money.
Li Yi used the method of exchanging grasshoppers for eggs to collect a large number of grasshoppers. At the same time, there was a saying that chickens, ducks, and pigs ate locusts, and the heavens did not punish sinners.
In other words, Li Yi was not in danger there. The camp had been set up, and there was no conflict with the local officials. The commoners were also very supportive.
Everyone was silent after hearing this. They did not know what to say.
"Everyone, tell me, how is Li Yi's trip so far?" Li Longji asked complacently.
Everyone looked at each other. Wei Zhigu found that three people looked at him first. Fine, Li Yi had saved his life, so he should go first.
"Your Majesty, Imperial Physician Li Yi is indeed extraordinary. In just a few days, he contacted an official, and it was the Henan Governor.
At the same time, his military formation was perfect, and he could attack and defend. There was a well on the mountain, and he did not have to worry about being surrounded by enemies.
He did not fight with the commoners, was close to the children, treated the workers well, and let the commoners benefit. He handled things thoroughly. "
Wei Zhigu flattered and then wanted to laugh. He endured it.
He looked at Lu Huaishen. Zhang Shuo and Yao Chong looked at Lu Huaishen at the same time.
Lu Huaishen thought that his new home was indeed not bad. The place was big, and the furniture was new. He stood up and spoke.
"Imperial Physician Li Yi wanted to use Luoyang's convenient transportation to teach the method of raising poultry. Good!
He did not disturb the commoners, did not offend the Henan Governor, and did not interfere with the administration. In the face of a serious disaster, he dealt with it with gentleness. Good!
He advanced steadily step by step. Who knows how many people benefited from it. He stabilized the chaos of the Tang dynasty. Good! "
After saying these words, Lu Huaishen thought about it and found that there was no problem. It was not a lie. Li Yi did it.
Therefore, it was definitely not because she was living in a house that someone else had built for her. Yes, that was not the case.
Yao Chong and Zhang Shuo looked at each other.
Zhang said and stretched out two fingers.
Yao Chong got up. He understood Zhang Shuo's gesture. Both of their homes had been renovated, but they would first decorate it for Yao Chong. The best craftsmen had arrived at Zhang Shuo's place. It could not be said that the craftsmen were not good.
"This subject requests Your Majesty to promote Grand Imperial Physician Li Yi to Jinziguang Lu Daifu." Yao Chong directly mentioned promotion.
"I haven't given it to Doctor Yinqing Guanglu yet." Li Longji threw the question of how to explain to Yao Chong.
I do want to raise Li Yi's rank, but I can't say it. You are the one who suggested it. Tell everyone why you want to jump ranks.
Yao Chong did not want to waste his breath. He simply said, "Your Majesty, Li Yi has been reliable in his work. He opened up the situation in a few days.
There are no problems in the officialdom, in the people's livelihood, and in the military. Such a person, it is not overboard to give him a third-rank civil official.
If anyone is dissatisfied, give them tens of thousands of chickens and ducks. Bring them to a place and let them find a place to settle down on the same day. At the same time, the officials will not cause trouble. "
Yao Chong directly said what to do with those who are dissatisfied. You come once. If you succeed, I will also give you a promotion. If you don't, then …
It's not that I look down on you, but you don't even know how to bribe.
If you have the ability, go and face Bi Goo and shout 'Old Bi'. If you can then be safe and sound, I won't even be the Prime Minister anymore. I will let you be.
Yao Chong was puzzled. When they met, Bi Goo clearly wanted to show Li Yi his power.
In the end, Li Yi went up and grabbed Bi Goo's arm. He called him 'Old Bi' and brought him across the bridge. They even had a meal together.
Why wasn't Bi Goo angry? What went wrong?
Yao Chong sat back down with a belly full of confusion. In any case, he had said that he would be promoted directly to a third-rank civil official.
Everyone looked at Zhang Shou and said, "Last one, it's your turn."
Zhang Shou stood up. "This subject, this subject agrees."
After he finished speaking, he sat back down.
The three of them glared at him. What do you mean you agree? We said so much, but when it's your turn, you only say four words?
"Since all of you insist on giving Grand Physician Li Yi a greater responsibility, I will listen to all of you this once. Minister Yao will speak to the provincial officials."
Li Longji said with a look that said, "You are the one who insisted on giving Li Yi a promotion. I have no choice but to agree."
After the matter was settled, if the Censorate said that he was being promoted too quickly, they would go to the three prime ministers and they would say that they wanted a promotion.
Li Longji was happy and listened to a few more things. He said that he would give them extra food for lunch and that they should go back.
The four of them left. Wei Zhigu was in no hurry to leave today.
"I thought that there would be an open and covert struggle with the local officials. How did it end so quickly?" Wei Zhigu couldn't figure it out.
"Li Yi will go personally. He won't fight with others. He has important matters to attend to. It just so happens that the mountain is under the jurisdiction of the county. Otherwise, he would still have a way to contact Bi Goo. "
Lu Huaishen had his own opinion on this matter. He knew that Li Yi's movements were troublesome. Everyone was concerned, and Li Yi himself probably didn't want to go out.
What was he going to do? Defeat a certain official or some other officials?
If he wanted to deal with someone, wouldn't it be easier to find a way to bribe or speak ill of others in Chang 'an?
Zhang Shuo added, "Just as Huaishen said, Li Yi wants to use the fastest speed to achieve his goal. It looks easy, but I don't even dare to call Bi Goo Old Bi. "
"He has seen through Bi Goo's thoughts." Yao Chong gave his analysis and looked at Lu Huaishen.
"I exchanged my house with my calligraphy. If Li Yi does something harmful to the Tang dynasty one day, this old man will be the first to not forgive him."
Lu Huaishen first brought up the matter of the house and then his attitude. He didn't want to admit that his thoughts had been guessed.
"Let's go. I'm busy with the well drilling." Wei Zhigu asked about the situation and returned to his Ministry of Works.
"When will Li Yi come back? To be honest, I feel uneasy when he's far away." Zhang Shuo suddenly said on the way back to the Political Affairs Hall.
"He won't stay for long. Empress Wang … Li Yi must come back." Lu Huaishen judged from another perspective.
"It's been another year. He might come up with something new. Luoyang isn't his territory." Yao Chong said from another perspective.

Li Yi, who was remembered by many people, finished copying another medical book.
When he was eating at night, he met Bi Goo who rushed over. This time, Bi Goo only brought twenty horses, a steward, and three servants.
"Hot wine. The wine from last time. Today, three taels per person. No more." Bi Goo didn't say anything and asked for wine first.
Li Yi personally poured the wine and heated it. He even brought over a plate of fried grasshoppers.
There was beef to eat tonight. Luoyang couldn't have a cow. For some reason, the cow was sent to the foot of the mountain.
Li Yi looked at the sad expression of the cow's owner and then looked at the dying cow. He spent a lot of money to buy it and then personally cut it.
It could be said to be two cuts, but it could also be said to be one. The blade faced outwards and fell towards the cow's neck. When it was raised again, the cow's head was connected to a section of its spine.
Then, the farmer next to it gave it a chop with an axe, breaking the spine. The cow closed its eyes.
The cow's owner took the money and left crying.
Li Yi didn't want to save it. It was too difficult unless it was a human. Even if he couldn't save it, he had to try his best.
After killing the cow and examining it, he found that it was indeed sick.
It was delivered late because of rumen indigestion. Otherwise, if he bought it and performed emergency surgery, it would have a high chance of survival.
After the blood was drained, it could be eaten. Therefore, beef was served tonight.
Li Yi naturally had meat to eat. The others had soup. One cow's head wasn't enough for everyone to eat.
Especially the cow that had rumen indigestion, it was already thin.
"Old Bi, you found that there are more locusts, right? I can't catch them all no matter how hard I try. "Li Yi took another plate of warm cow tendons and sat opposite Bi Goo.
