Happy Little Scholar

"Uncle, how much money would it cost to build such a big palace?"

When the two walked out of the palace, Lao Fang pointed to a palace not far away and asked.

Li Yi glanced at the palace and said, "No amount of money will do."

"Why?" Lao Fang was stunned for a moment and asked quickly.

"Only the royal family can build this kind of palace. Anyone else who builds it will be overstepping the rules and will lose their head." The royal family has many rules. There are rules for what kind of people, what kind of carriages to ride, and what kind of houses to build. If you exceed these, If you follow the rules, others may wonder if you want to rebel, which is even more stupid than hiding a dragon robe at home.

Lao Fang thought for a while and asked, "Can you find a place to build it secretly?"

"no."

Changde, who was walking in front, refused, and the old man's budding dream was shattered.

The matter of checking the accounts seems to have really become a big deal. Although several students from the School of Accountancy who assisted the Yushitai in checking the accounts can no longer continue the investigation due to injuries and illnesses, His Majesty's determination to eliminate corrupt officials has not changed at all because of this incident. .

The Secret Intelligence Service went out overnight, going up to the Sixth Department and down to the local county government, and packed up all the accounts and sent them to the School of Accountancy. Even the places that had been inspected before had to be checked again. They watched the account books being packed into boxes after boxes. Move away, I don’t know how many officials have super fast heartbeats.

This night was destined to be a sleepless night for many officials in the DPRK.

At the same time, the surveillance at all the city gates in Kyoto suddenly became stricter. Every gate was guarded by no less than a hundred guards, and people entering and leaving the city were closely inspected.

Today's morning, the atmosphere was particularly dull.

Except for a few innocuous local reports, the courtiers all stood in their positions honestly without saying a word. As usual, the emperor announced his withdrawal from the court after several inquiries.

The officials who came down from the court were no longer talking as loudly, chatting and laughing as in the past, and they were all in a hurry. When they left the palace, they would look in a certain direction involuntarily. Counting the thousands of guards at the entrance of the college, they were still vaguely identifiable. come out.

When I looked up, there seemed to be thick dark clouds in the clear and cloudless sky, oppressing me and making me breathless.

…

…

Qin family.

"madness!"

Qin Yan slapped the table and said angrily: "I just participated in this matter without thinking about the pros and cons, and actually protected the guilty minister... Do you know that all the accounts you checked this morning have been Sent to arithmetic academy again!"

"If you are found out, you are all covering up your own cronies. This is the crime of deceiving the emperor!"

Looking at his extremely furious uncle, Qin Feng's originally pale face turned even paler, and then he felt the world spin for a while. After his vision went dark, he no longer had any consciousness.

"Feng'er, Feng'er..."

A middle-aged woman's expression changed and she hurriedly walked to the bed...

"There is a Bao Qingtian in Kaifeng, who is unselfish in distinguishing between loyal and traitor..." In the small garden of the Qin Mansion, the fifth master of the Qin family was drinking a small drink, occasionally pinching a bean and putting it in his mouth, shaking his head.

"Fifth Master, where is Kaifeng?" A big man stood behind him and asked doubtfully.

"It's sung in the opera. The devil knows where this place is." The fifth master of the Qin family said without raising his head: "Don't doze off in the hook bar from now on and ruin the fifth master's fun..."

The big man nodded repeatedly. The fifth master liked to listen to operas very much. I heard that his favorite concubine was an actor, but she later died for unknown reasons. However, this hobby of the fifth master has never changed.

The fifth master of the Qin family suddenly sighed and said, "Feng'er, this kid, is still too simple-minded. If he becomes an official in the future, he will probably be eaten to the bone."

After a pause, he added: "However, I'm afraid he won't have the chance to be an official in the future..."

Zeng family.

"Idiot, look what stupid things you have done!" Zeng Shichun, the head of the Zeng family and the right servant of the Ministry of Household Affairs, slapped his son in the face, with a particularly ferocious expression on his face.

"Covering? Who do you think you are!"

"I still want credit, but I have no credit at all. Do you know what this is? This is bullying the emperor, even if you lose your head, it's not an exaggeration!"

When Zeng Zijian heard this, big beads of sweat rolled down his forehead, and his whole body trembled like chaff.

Cui family.

Chen family.

Feng family.

Han family.

"Li Yi!" After several high-ranking officials scolded their heirs, they gritted their teeth and said these two words.

After a moment of gnashing of teeth, the anger turned into deep regret.

After all, the academy shouldn't have begged His Majesty to let them in!

…

…

"Half of the children from powerful families have taken sick leave?" Li Yi put down the book and looked up.

A certain doctor from the School of Calculation quickly said: "Yes, Mr. Dean, there are less than thirty people who returned to the school today."

Li Yi waved his hand and said, "Then let's give the remaining people a few days off. It just so happens that the college is busy with things these days, and they can't help much."

As soon as he finished speaking, a general of the Forbidden Army came out, clasped his fists and said, "Master Li, all the accounts have been delivered."

"Thank you for your hard work." Li Yi stood up and said with a smile.

The leader of the imperial guard was flattered and said quickly: "According to the emperor's order, this is our duty. Mr. Li is serious."

At this time, at the entrance of the classroom of the School of Mathematics, all sixty-six poor students had gathered.

"This is your first opportunity to serve the court. What you have to do is to carefully check these account books. Every time you find a problematic account, you can accumulate a credit. This credit will be used for the end-of-term evaluation..."

Li Han put his hands behind his back and paced in front of many students, saying something loudly, occasionally stopping to look at his palms before continuing.

The faces of all the poor students showed excitement. This was the first time they had the opportunity to apply what they learned, not to mention that they could get credits, so they didn't have to worry about the final exams, and they could also contribute to the court. They were eager to try.

At this moment, no one had any grudges against the eleven children of official families who had monopolized this opportunity.

Poisoning, pouring sewage, breaking legs, being hit by a carriage... It turns out that going out for internship is so dangerous. In this way, isn't this a kind of protection for their poor students by the dean?

The dean, you really have good intentions!

Now they can sit in the academy of mathematics, and there are so many guards outside to protect them, all of which are fought for by the dean. Even if those corrupt officials want to retaliate, they have no way to start.

Thinking of this, looking at the figure coming from the side, everyone's faces are full of deep gratitude.

"Time is tight, everyone cheer up, and you must check all the accounts within three days." Li Yi walked in front of everyone, looked at them and said, "Do you have confidence?"

"Yes!"

Everyone answered in unison and loud.

Soon, the entire academy of mathematics was shrouded in the crackling sound of beads colliding.

And every official who passed by the academy of mathematics couldn't help but feel depressed.

It seems calm outside, but everyone knows that what is brewing inside is a storm that can sweep the entire court.

Once the gate of the academy of mathematics is opened, it will release terrifying wind and thunder!
