Henan Province, Zhengzhou City, Xingyang County.
It was a beautiful place with flowers, grass, ponds, and pavilions. Li Rizhi, who had been ill some time ago, was in good health.
He was drinking tea, green tea.
Bi Goo was sitting opposite him. The tea was brought by Bi Goo. The Li Family Zhuangzi asked someone to bring it to Henan Province by water.
"You should leave now. Are you waiting for Her Majesty to send someone to invite you back?" Bi Goo drank tea and looked at the surrounding scenery.
"I've already retired. How can I face others? My heart belongs to the countryside." Li Rizhi put down the tea.
"If Her Majesty didn't send someone in time, you would've died of illness. When you heard that Her Majesty wanted to invite you back, you recovered. How can you say that your heart belongs to the countryside?"
Bi Goo expressed his disdain. Li Rizhi was sick before.
Then, someone from the palace said that the imperial court had an important task to invite Li Rizhi back.
The next day, Li Rizhi didn't need anyone to feed him. Today, he didn't look sick at all.
"Thank you for your blessing, Your Majesty." Li Rizhi cupped his hands in the direction of Chang 'an. He looked at the teacup and shook his head, "But I …"
"Do you know who persuaded Her Majesty to invite you back?" Bi Goo started a new topic.
"Who?" Li Rizhi was interested.
"Your family raised a lot of chickens and ducks this year. I heard that you encouraged your family to raise more to prevent the locust plague." Bi Goo talked about something else.
"Li Yi?" Li Rizhi thought of someone.
He knew Li Yi. He came from Chang 'an to deliver chickens, ducks, and pigs to Henan Province.
He went to the mountains west of Luoyang and used eggs to exchange for locusts. He also recruited workers to build the mountain.
After that, he exchanged for chickens and ducks to let the people see how fast the pigs grew.
The people learned from him. The locusts around Luoyang were treasures.
When the news spread to Zhengzhou, the people did as they were told.
Even he, who didn't own any property, raised a lot of chickens and ducks. He also built a fire bed to hatch the chickens and ducks.
In his mind, Li Yi had single-handedly suppressed the locust plague in a large area.
"This old man is going back this year. Li Yi's Zhuangzi said that it's not bad. When the time comes, Li Yi will give me dental implants first. Don't you want to take a look? "
Bi Goo didn't deny it. He talked about his return, Li Yi, and Zhuangzi.
The Li Family Zhuangzi left behind a hundred people on the mountain. The commoners interacted with them and learned many things about the Li Family Zhuangzi.
What the commoners of Luoyang received was the real situation.
It became the Li Family Zhuangzi. Floating clouds curled up, multicolored light filled the sky, and a faint immortal language could be heard.
Li Rizhi picked up the teacup again and drank mouthful after mouthful.
"Alright, I'll go and see what's so special about that young man." He put down his teacup and said.
"Set off as soon as possible. Her Majesty is waiting." Bi Goo urged and left.
He deliberately came over from Henan to persuade him to go back quickly. He still had political affairs to deal with.
He was delayed for two days. If he went back, it would be another two days.
Li Rizhi found his wife and prepared to go to Chang 'an by water.
After he was removed from the position of Governor, he was disheartened and resigned.
His children were waiting for him to become an official, but it was all over.
Without his salary, he could only go back to his hometown.
When he returned to his hometown, he repaired his garden and allowed other young students to come over and ask for advice.
If there were good ones, he would recommend them to the government.
He did have a backbone. He had once refused the order to beat someone to death with a cane.
However, he didn't care about his family. He never discussed anything with his wife. He was a male chauvinist and didn't think about his children.
It was the same now. When he said he was leaving, he told his wife and his wife arranged it.
His children were happy. They were going to Chang 'an again, and they had an official.
Jiangnan East Road, Hangzhou.
Liu Youqiu was dealing with government affairs in the provincial government office. He looked gloomy and sullen.
He wanted to be an official and a Prime Minister.
It wasn't easy for him to become a Prime Minister, but a few days later, he was gone.
He was also demoted to be the Provincial Governor of Hangzhou. He should be the Prime Minister again.
After dealing with one matter, he picked up another book.
"Provincial Governor, Provincial Governor, someone from Chang 'an is here." A small official ran in.
"Ah? Someone from Chang 'an? "Liu Youqiu sat up straight, looking panicked. He had heard that he was going to be transferred to Chenzhou.
Chenzhou was not as good as Hangzhou.
If he really went there, when could he return to the capital? His life was probably over.
"It's a Yellow Door," the small official added.
"Yellow Door?" Liu Youqiu was surprised. It should be someone from Ziwei Province with a document from the Ministry of Personnel.
"Quick, invite him in," Liu Youqiu, who couldn't figure it out, ordered.
Not long after, a eunuch came in.
"Congratulations, Scout Liu. I'm here to congratulate you." The moment the Yellow Door saw Liu Youqiu, he cupped his hands and congratulated him.
"Scout? What's that? "Liu Youqiu was confused. He knew about inspectors and patrols, but what was the rank of a scout?
"It's an officer of the First Patrol Regiment of the Tang dynasty. There's an additional department, which is full of scouts. They can investigate the problems of the officials alone.
Not only the officials in the capital, but also the local officials can investigate. They can investigate wherever they want.
They can send people or bring people there personally. When they find the officials with problems, they can report to His Majesty.
The official rank is a third-rank official with a real title. They have a lot of power. The Winged Knights can borrow them. "
The Yellow Door introduced with a happy face.
Liu Youqiu was even more confused. A new department was established in the Tang dynasty. There were supervising officers stationed in the local area and patrolling officers occasionally sent out.
Why did he establish another department? Why did he need so many departments? He needed people to do things.
"Who's in the First Patrol Regiment?" Liu Youqiu asked.
"There are only two now, Scout Liu and Scout Li Rizhi. His Majesty is looking for them. There will be more in the future."
The Yellow Door's voice was much lower when he talked about this.
"What about the Censorate?" Liu Youqiu still had questions.
He knew who Li Rizhi was. He resigned after his power was taken away. Both sides were familiar with each other.
"The Censorate finds things and reports them in the imperial court. You're different. You find things and report them to His Majesty secretly," the Yellow Door explained.
"Sometimes the Censorate also reports to His Majesty alone," Liu Youqiu argued.
"The Censorate doesn't have people. You have people. A group of subordinates helps you collect evidence.
Scout Liu, get ready. The new Provincial Governor of Hangzhou is coming. "
The Yellow Door gave a different answer.
It was difficult for the people of the Censorate to collect evidence by themselves. They were handed to them by others.
Liu Youqiu went to find his family in a daze and prepared to leave for Chang 'an. He didn't need to care about the handover of government affairs.
Li Yi didn't get the news that the two of them were going to Chang 'an.
He watched people seal the alcohol in Zhuangzi.
He didn't have a plastic bucket, and it couldn't be a glass bottle.
Like ordinary wine jars, he poured the alcohol in. As for whether the alcohol would permeate and evaporate, it was not up to him.
After the alcohol was poured in, the mouth of the jar was covered with a layer of oil paper, then the lid, wax seal, and mud seal.
Of course, the alcohol he sold to Tubo was 85%. It was not pure enough.
The reason why it was not 80% was that it could be used as medical alcohol if the alcohol was low enough.
If Tubo people found out, what would they do if it was used in battlefield medicine?
In the future, the soldiers of the Tang dynasty would use alcohol with 75% alcohol. It had a good sterilization effect on external injuries.
If Tubo people found out and learned it, wouldn't he be helping the enemy?
If Tubo people found out and added water, then so be it. If the water was not clean, it would get infected faster.
