Chapter 730(1/2)

For some people, doing stupid things is not because they are not smart enough and have too stupid brains.

Sometimes, it's because it's too idle.

This is how Su Shi looked like.

Although he had little political achievements as an official, after experiencing the Wutai Poetry Case, his entire person had been completely changed. From a famous scholar who did not know the sufferings of the people to a good official who thought of doing things for the people, it was not very different. But thinking was one thing, doing was another. Su Shi was not able to do much for the people, building a medical clinic and building water conservancy was also one. Besides, it seemed that it was gone. It seemed that he was not his strength to judge cases and educate the people.

Therefore, even if you want to be a good official, Su Shi often goes out for a trip.

He has become even more idle since he resigned.

Once a person is idle, something will happen.

This is how Su Shi was. Originally, he had a medical clinic and a pharmacy, which was a business of losing money and gaining publicity. However, after his medical skills were unveiled, the guise of free medical treatment was no longer useful. This was also impossible. The old man only had one secret recipe. It would definitely not be possible to use this secret recipe for all diseases. It was not a magic pill, so there was no secret recipe to cure all diseases.

But even if the people around Su Shi tried every possible way for him, even if they found fake patients who fooled them, it would not work.

The key is that Su Shi does not understand any medical skills. He can diagnose some diseases, but he just uses the wrong medicine. Some diseases are wrong when diagnosing, and it is even more outrageous to use the medicine.

He could not be a good minister, and even the opportunity to be a good doctor was deprived of Su Shi's retirement life. The age for officials in the Song Dynasty to retire was to continue the Tang Dynasty system, at the age of seventy. In this era, very few people could live to the age of seventy. Therefore, many officials died within their term of office. More officials would start praying for retirement at the age of sixty. Some people succeeded, and some people would write a memorial to retire every year, but they still had to drag their unbearable bodies to continue to be officials.

With some spare money, there is enough time.

This is the reason why Su Shi wanted to cultivate immortality. The young man's dream was ignited again.

But what he didn't expect was that his personality, who likes to share good things with others, harmed him again. Fortunately, the situation was not too bad. The main reason was that Sumen were all "poor people". They were asked to practice fasting, one was more experienced than the other. They really made them refine alchemy, one was as poor as the other, and they couldn't even afford to buy alchemy furnaces, let alone refine leg-stretching pills, and they all ascended to heaven.

When the lie was exposed, Su Shi felt embarrassed.

But this man had a big heart that others could not imagine. After two days of wilting, he became lively again.

Li Kui went to the Su family and met An Zhongyang who came to visit Wang Chaoyun and asked about the situation.

An Zhongyang was kicked out of the Imperial Hospital in shame before, and then he couldn't even stay in the capital. If it weren't for Li Kui, his son wouldn't have entered the Imperial Hospital again as an imperial physician. Not to mention that he could have brought the beauty back, he left the capital safely and returned to his hometown in Jinling to be a rich man. Therefore, An Yinyu's gratitude to Li Kui was sincere, and he was determined to repay him.

It is natural that I agree to take care of the Su family.

In fact, the Su family is all wise. Except for Su Shi who often eats randomly, no one else can commit suicide. He also trusts An Zhongyang very much.

This is a serious miracle doctor, unlike Su Shi, who is a stubborn quack doctor.

“How is the situation?”

"Pregnant women are safe."

An Zhongyang walked out of the backyard, disturbed a cup of hot tea, and prepared to leave.

Outside the yard, he saluted Li Kui and said, "Don't worry, sir, Wang is very healthy, not old, and has experience in giving birth, so there will not be too much problem."

"How much trouble you are, I am not afraid of others, I am afraid that my master and his elders will prescribe medicine..." Li Kui was in a bad mood. Everyone knew that Su Shi liked to eat randomly, and forgot about mice and bats. As long as they were not raw, they would not die. Li Kui knew that as long as he saw someone eating beautiful food on the road, he would try it. Even if the other party was a child.

The key is to take medicine randomly. Su Shi likes to prescribe medicine for himself and test poison with his body.

But An Zhongyang assured Li Kui with great confidence: "Sir, please rest assured. The bachelor is innocent and charming, but with my husband here, he will not be able to do anything."

This is also Zhongyang's confidence. Even if Su Shi takes medicine randomly, he can save him as long as he doesn't die.

What's more, An Zhongyang often comes to Su's family, and Su Shi doesn't even have the chance to take medicine randomly.

Besides, Su Shi is not stupid either. He is just stubborn. If it is a poison, it is a tonic for him to deceive him, he will not take it.

Li Kui thanked: "Doctor An, I'm worried."

"I dare not, I dare not. I have to thank the Lord for taking care of my An family and my son. If there is no adult care, I may not even have the opportunity to practice medicine in Jinling City, let alone let the dog son go back to the Imperial Hospital." An Zhongyang was a former imperial physician in the Imperial Hospital. He was excluded, and his reputation was just a minor problem. The main reason is that his talents are jealous. His medical skills are too good. Compared with him, other imperial physicians are too mediocre. This is why he has the frame of using his reputation to tell things.

With An Zhongyang's guarantee and Su Shi's situation is also good, Li Kui can finally feel at ease.

He brought people to the Jiangning Prefecture Office, and Bai Shizhong brought officials from Jiangning Prefecture to welcome Li Kui.

"Xiaoguan, I have met Lord Li in Bai Shizhong."

"You are polite, Lord Bai, Li is still a junior in Lord Bai, so I don't dare to be." The two of them were polite at the gate of the government office. Li Kui was also shocked. Bai Shizhong was really too reluctant to go out. Jiangning Mansion's status in the Song Dynasty is not low.

In addition to the four capitals, there are some of them: Jiangning Prefecture, Jingzhao Prefecture and Chengdu Prefecture.

The prefects of these government offices are at least under the ranks of the ranks of the ranks of the direct scholars. Bai Shizhong and Li Kui had the same official ranks, so there is no reason to be called a lower-ranking official.

But this guy was still standing on the street and saluting Li Kui, which was too unscrupulous.

Bai Shizhong said seriously: "Mr. Li is an official in the capital. He is ordered to go on a tour. When he sees a senior official, how dare he compare with Master Li?"

Treacherous ministers also have the style of treacherous ministers, and they don’t care about the things they are doing.

In contrast, Bai Shizhong's cursing favor with Li Kui was mainly because Li Kui was too valued by the court. He said a few good words and lowered his attitude, and might give Li Kui a good impression. If he could get on Li Kui's big ship in the future, it would not be a loss at all. However, if Li Kui was not good in the officialdom, Bai Shizhong would not mind stepping on it at that time.

When Li Kui saw Bai Shizhong insisting, he simply suffered.

Bai Shizhong hurriedly turned to Li Kui and said, "Mr. Li, please come in."

"Please, Lord Bai!"

When he arrived at the back of the public hall, Bai Shizhong even wanted to lead Li Kui to the master's seat, but Li Kui refused. Bai Shizhong was not angry, but said to Li Kui apologetically: "The family of the Zhu family has been taken to jail. Do you want to interrogate me?"

"Where is Zhu Quanzhong?"

When Li Kui learned that the person who had had a conflict with his own warships on the Qinhuai River was the main general of Jiangnan Road, he immediately had an idea and wanted to find a breakthrough from Zhu Quanzhong.

Some people may say, how can the evil Taoist matter have something to do with the generals in the army?

Li Kui also understood that people at the level of the generals of the Song Dynasty would never be able to rebel. Because without military talismans, the subordinates would not go crazy with the chief general. Even if there were any signs of rebellion, they would be arrested and sent to the official position by their subordinates.

But the demon Taoist is not small in his plan and will inevitably need weapons. The Great Song Dynasty military preparations are now corrupt, and even the bandits know how to bribe the generals in the army to purchase weapons. Does the demon Taoist not know?

What can you do with a few blacksmiths from the people?

Bai Shizhong smiled and said, "When Zhu Quanzhong heard that his family had collided with the adults, he personally brought the people to plead with the Xiaguan. However, he was driven away by the Xiaguan."

"Leave?" Li Kui asked with his eyebrows raised.

Bai Shizhong kept it a secret and said proudly: "He dares!"

I really don’t dare to do it. A general who collided with a civil servant was a very serious crime. What’s more, this civil servant was still a Beijing official. To put it more exaggeratedly, it was no different from the imperial envoy.

Zhu Quanzhong was too late to ask his grandfather to sue his grandmother. How could he be angry when Bai Shizhong said nothing? Not only did he not dare to leave, but he felt even more panicked.

Bai Shizhong smiled and said, "He himself is in the lobby. Do you want to see Lord Li?"

Li Kui waved his hand and said to himself: "Release him first."

Eating, drinking, bragging is the daily life of civil servants.

It was not until the sunset was dusk that Li Kui and Bai Shizhong were reminded by the minor official that there was a general in the yamen. Shi Shiran came to the lobby.

"General Cao?" Zhu Quanzhong saw that Cao Fang and other powerful generals could only follow Li Kui, and he suddenly complained secretly that he had been in eight lifetimes and could still provoke the powerful people in the capital in Jiangnan.

But no matter how bitter the medicine was, he could only swallow it in his stomach. Even if this bowl was poison, he would do whatever he wanted.

As for using power to suppress others, he couldn't even imagine. In the Song Dynasty, the generals of the Imperial Army, besides the Western Army, the other Imperial Army commanders could only mobilize 500 personal guards. If there were too many, no one listened to him. Who would you threaten to go? Who could you threaten to go?

Although the imperial guards of the Song Dynasty were elite in the capital, the imperial guards in the capital were only a little over 100,000. How could these few troops intimidate the remaining 700,000 imperial guards and 600,000 wing troops in the world? Only if the general has no military power in his hands is the best way.

This military system of the Song Dynasty directly led to insufficient responses in local civil unrest. But for the Song Dynasty, it was a disease of scabies. As long as the army did not have any problems, the dynasty would not have any problems and the country would be permanent.

Although Zhu Quanzhong has a good official position, he can't even interfere in front of Li Kui and Bai Shizhong.

Not only that, even when Li Kui and Bai Shizhong were in the lobby, they had no intention of looking at him. This made Zhu Quanzhong feel even more guilty.

It was not until Ruan Xiaowu walked straight to Li Kui and whispered to him a few words that Li Kui nodded and said, "Liang Shijie, you bring someone to check the accounts."

Although Liang Shijie is Cai Jing's son-in-law, he has never proved himself in the imperial examination. Outside, Li Kui sat and could only stand. But it cannot be said that this person is completely a pampered person. Liang Shijie likes to do business, has a business acumen, and is proficient in accounting books. Especially with experts like Cai Jing, he has made great progress in checking accounts, and now he is one of the talents that can be taken advantage of by the Military Control Bureau.

Liang Shijie took the order and stood up and left in a hurry.

Check the account?

What account should I check?

Zhu Quanzhong changed his color. Even the Western Army of the Song Dynasty had no loopholes in the account book. What Li Kui said was to check his accounts was obviously to check his accounts.

All are in a panic, how can Zhu Quanzhong not panic?

"This master, Lord Bai!" Zhu Quanzhong stood up and begged Li Kui and Bai Shizhong: "It is Xiaguan's fault that his family has collided with him, but this master... without the order of the Privy Council, no one in the military account book could be moved."

Until now, Zhu Quanzhong still doesn't know who has targeted him. But even now, he is a fourth-rank general and dares not say a harsh word to Li Kui and Bai Shizhong.

Li Kui turned his head and sneered at Zhu Quanzhong: "I am Li Kui, do you think you are qualified?"

"Li Baishen!"

Zhu Quanzhong was stunned. Of course he had heard of Li Kui's name. When he returned to his hometown to visit relatives, he actually caused most of the generals and schools on Jingdong East Road. The name of this military commander in Beijing made people grit their teeth because Li Kui and Cai Jing cut leeks, and after cutting one after another, which made people hate it.

Outside the capital, the notorious reputation of military command is like a plague god in the military.

Zhu Quanzhong subconsciously called out Li Kui's reputation. After shouting out, he fell to the ground as if he was sifted. Li Kui walked to Zhu Quanzhong, looked at the other party with contempt, and snorted coldly: "Let me ask you, have you sold weapons in recent years?"

Zhu Quanzhong was about to open his mouth, but Li Kui interrupted: "I thought about it and said that there are sold military weapons everywhere. I will give you a crime of inattention. But if there is a huge chaos, you plan to destroy your family."

"Sir, it's unfair!"

"You know whether it is wronged or not."

Seeing that Li Kui couldn't ask anything, he said to Wu Song: "Go down and bet, I'm sure."

The next day.
