Chapter 497: Turning Faces Faster Than Turning Books

In the winter of this season, the capital is very cold, especially when the Little Ice Age is approaching, and the temperature will reach minus [-] degrees in three or nine days.

The weather is so cold, these big bosses from various parties are not young, and they are not covered tightly when they go out, but when they arrive at Li Shantang's place, the temperature in the hall is definitely above [-] degrees, plus they just took off their clothes. When I was wearing shoes, I was tense and stiff all over. At this moment, everyone was sweating and felt extremely uncomfortable.

The maids were somewhat amazed by this kind of thing. After everyone had changed their shoes, they took them to another hall to wash their feet... This was also the first time that the leaders of various parties met 'barefoot'. It is also the birthday of the first collective foot-washing event in Ming Dynasty...

After tossing around for a long time, and changing into the various clothes and pants prepared in advance by the Li Mansion, the few bosses came out refreshed. In other words, they can experience summer-like comfort in this cold winter season. It is indeed a kind of enjoyment, it would be even better without the embarrassing episode before.

As soon as they came out, they saw the door opened again. Li Shantang was walking in from the outside. Two maids stepped forward to serve him. One took off the long mink coat from Li Shantang, and the other helped him take off his long riding boots and legs. After simply taking off the fur leggings, Li Shantang was left with nothing but summer clothes, and walked towards the big guys.

"It's a great honor for the adults to come to the house!"

Looking at Li Shantang's smiling face like a blooming old chrysanthemum, several people looked at each other and couldn't help cursing in their hearts, "Sao Bao!"

Today, everyone was fooled by Li Shantang, and they suffered a dumb loss. In addition, the two sides were in hostile camps. Naturally, their expressions were not very good, and they were unwilling to even give a smile.

After a group of people sat down, they exchanged a few casual greetings, and Fang Congzhe asked directly: "Master Li asked me to come to the mansion, isn't it just to show how different your mansion is?"

"Master Fang was joking, of course not!"

"Then just tell me what's going on." Although staying here is comfortable, seeing his opponent's happy face makes him feel uncomfortable.

"In that case, then I'll tell you the truth!" Li Shantang's face turned serious, and he glanced at Fang Congzhe and the others before saying in a deep voice, "Everyone, my lord already knows about the transfer orders of all the officials in the three provinces of Fujian. , and have no intention of blocking it, and have already announced it in the newspapers."

The words "newspaper" hit the hearts of these people in the court, making their faces even more ugly.

Since ancient times, various policies and measures of the imperial court, including various local government orders, have always been passed on to the ears of the local tycoons and then stopped. How to interpret them or whether to announce them all depends on the meaning of these local tycoons.

Basically, all decrees will be deliberately distorted when they reach the locality. How they are interpreted depends on which benefit is greater. As for the original meaning of the court, who cares!

For one thing, the common people are not well literate and cannot read.

Secondly, those decrees are all citing scriptures, chewing on words, and deliberately writing cloudy mountains and mists. Even if you are literate, you have to guess the meaning from it a little bit, which is all kinds of texts learned in modern times...

Thirdly, there is no channel to publicize the decree, and these news have been deliberately cut off early.

As a result, when I arrived at Wang Xuan's place, I set up a chalk blackboard and began to popularize basic education on a large scale. Not to mention, I even created a newspaper, which is published every seven days. Those ordinary people can know the major events in the world, which is simply breaking the ethics!

Don't you know that the sage once said that the people can let them know, but they can't make them know!
This is going to cause chaos in the world!

It had been several months before they knew about it. They were all shocked when they saw the various issues of the newspapers they got back from Fujian. If this kind of evil stuff spreads, it will definitely shake the foundation of the world .

At that time, they collectively issued an order to resolutely prohibit any place and anyone under the Ming Dynasty from disseminating this kind of newspaper, and those who violated the order will be severely punished!
Of course, this does not include themselves. For things like newspapers, they do not publish every issue, and special personnel transport them from Fujian to the capital. There is such a grain of truth.

"What does Wang Xuan mean?" Fang Congzhe asked a group of people looking at each other.

"It's nothing interesting, stay if you want to stay, and leave if you want to go."

Li Shantang leaned back, not caring about the oppression of the four major party leaders at all, and said casually: "My lord is upright and upright, and will never lock men up by force. Of course, I will also inform you here. No matter who they are, as long as they are willing to stay with us, the imperial court will absolutely not allow any form of persecution to their family members, and I hope all of you here will remember this, so don’t say it is unexpected.”

"After all, according to the rules of the Tao, family members cannot be harmed, and my Patriarch is not willing to do something that makes everyone feel uncomfortable."

As soon as Li Shantang finished speaking, the faces of the big bosses became even uglier. What do you mean by 'informing me'? This is putting yourself in the same position as the court!
Furthermore, those of us who are not well-read poems and books, taught by sages, respected, and highly respected, how could we possibly persecute other people's family members? Good remuneration, with special personnel serving around every day, and free food and lodging!

But...Since Wang Xuan is unwilling to accept the kindness, let's follow the rules of 'Dao Shang'.

"Of course, there is no need to worry about this." Several big bosses expressed their opinions together, and this matter is considered settled. After all, no one has a family yet...

"That's great." Li Shantang laughed, "My Patriarch often said that most of the conflicts in this world are caused by poor communication. Now it seems that it is true. Our communication will solve the problem! "

"Then let's talk about the second thing today. You must have read the memorial of Qi Hongliang, the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi. I don't know what to do!?" After speaking, Li Shantang began to stare at everyone's reactions. This is today's main topic. Since the imperial court tested him, he would naturally return it.

Qi Hongliang?
Governor of Guangdong and Guangxi?

How could you, Li Shantang, have been dismissed so early? Don't you know, why are you pretending to be confused!
Gao Panlong narrowed his eyes and looked at Li Shantang carefully, wanting to see what kind of medicine he was selling in his gourd.

Fang Congzhe frowned, "What memorial, why don't I know?"

Everyone looked at him, and every day he had to walk around the cabinet for the memorial. How could he not pay attention to the news from the south, how could he not know about it?
"What is the meaning of Mr. Shoufu? The memorial was submitted yesterday. There is no mistake in that!" After preparing so much, it was just to see the court's reaction. Now that Fang Congzhe was pretending to be confused, how could Li Shantang have a good face.

Moreover, he also read the content of the memorial, and the things involved in it are closely related to Li Shantang. If he can force the court to agree this time, then his Li family will have a way out, and he will not be afraid of anything. Therefore, That's when it got tough.

Others also looked at Fang Congzhe, obviously, this matter is the topic of today, what kind of moths Wang Xuan is going to do is all in this memorial, and the issues involved must be very serious through such a formal channel. Now Fang Congzhe Even if they don't know, they are also dissatisfied.

"I really didn't see it, how could I still lie!"

meeting!You bastard, have you said a few truthful words and don't you have any B numbers in your heart!

"Hey, since Mr. Fang said that, then it must be assumed that Mr. Shoufu didn't see it." Li Shantang stood up directly, and said with a sneer: "Since you don't know anything, forget it, let's talk when we know. "

"Everyone, it's getting late, please!" After speaking, Li Shantang made a gesture of invitation.

In any case, they didn't expect that Li Shantang turned his face faster than turning a book, and he did such a thing as directly kicking people out, and the faces of a group of people completely darkened.

What is everyone's status? After so many years, when was someone kicked out, it is a great shame!
But here is Li Shantang's house, a group of old men can't do anything, the corners of their mouths are jumping and trembling, pointing at Li Shantang, trembling and speechless.

Li Shantang followed Wang Xuan's example and became tougher. He ordered the maid to bring the old men's clothes and trousers, and threw them directly on them. They were thrown out mercilessly when they had no time to wear them. He was dressed in unlined clothes and was blown by the north wind. , and sneezed loudly.

All of them were five or sixty years old. They couldn't bear the cold wind. They didn't care about other things. They hurriedly put on their clothes and came out of Li Shantang's mansion. Putting their own warm sedan chairs on their faces, they went straight to their respective mansions.

Regarding today's workshop, Li Shantang doesn't think there is anything wrong with it. Everyone has already reached the point of dying, but they still have their own scruples. If it is normal, he still has some face, but when it is time to turn his face, he will naturally have nothing to do scruples.

Turning the other day, Fang Congzhe brought Gao Panlong and others to the cabinet early in the morning with a livid face. After entering the door, without saying a word, he yelled: "Guangxi Qi Hongliang's memorial!"

With this loud roar, more than a dozen people in the cabinet were startled and trembling. They looked at Fang Congzhe, who was furious, and looked at the group of bosses who were staring at him behind him.

"Are they all dead? Talk to me. I'll let you eat the memorial!" Fang Congzhe, who was in his 60s, walked over angrily, grabbed a guy by his collar, and stared at him, "Say it!"

"Yes, yes, in the trash can." After saying a word, the whole person collapsed on the ground, and sweat flowed out like he didn't want money.

(It was supposed to be a good day today, but as a result, something happened at home, and the update may not be effective recently, so stick to it and see.)
