Chapter 845 Being an Official

The screams of Yu Dubai continued one after another. At first, he was shouting unspeakable words. After the cook gouged out his tongue with a knife, he couldn't even shout.

Li Shimin walked to the edge of the city wall, looked at the people below, and took the loudspeaker from Ren Zhi Chu.

The people below listened. From now on, no matter when or where, if anyone dares to cause a ridiculous incident similar to that of the Wa Mansion, I will not show any mercy!

Within the territory of the Great Tang, the subjects of the Great Tang can freely engage in any activity!

No one is allowed to interfere by force, otherwise, they will face severe punishment by law!

I heard a saying some days ago, which is a jingle composed by the people of Chang'an.

It's called, if an official does not serve the people, it's better to go home and plant sweet potatoes!

Xuanjia Army, receive the order!

Yes!

Strip the official uniform of the Besha Prefect, escort him back to Shenyang for investigation, and if found guilty, he will be punished, and if derelict in his duty, he will be dismissed from office!

Yes!

The Emperor is wise!

The people outside the city shouted in unison. They were exactly what they had hoped for, that the Emperor would take such decisive action.

The Besha Prefect instantly collapsed to the ground, looking foolishly at Li Shimin: Your Majesty, I am wronged!

Li Shimin did not look back, flicked his sleeve, and descended the city wall.

The cook used his fastest speed, and pieces of flesh and blood fell from Yu Dubai's body like rain.

Ren Zhi Chu had just shouted that the people were not allowed to eat the meat. No one knew who started it, but someone brought their own pet dog.

The people retreated one after another to make way for the dogs. Dozens of dogs waited expectantly below the city.

The scene was extremely satisfying~

Yu Dubai's body, from below the neck, was scraped down to the skeleton, but he was not dead. It wasn't until the cook cut his trachea with a knife that he finally died.

He had been a scourge in Besha City for ten years, the initiator of the Wa Mansion Style Street. On the third day of the street's opening, he met his end!

Because the cook's knife was very fast, Li Shimin did not wait long on the hovercraft.

After everyone returned, the hovercraft set sail again, heading towards Panjin along the coast.

Changle had been kept in the cabin by Wang Xuance and others, completely unaware that her father had killed dozens of scoundrels just by visiting the city.

After the ship left the dock, Changle, holding a candy jar in her left hand and the hem of her skirt in her right, skipped to Fang Er.

Brother-in-law, here's a lollipop for you~

After saying that, she took one from the jar and handed it to Fang Er, then looked up at him with her big, blinking eyes.

After Fang Er took the candy, Changle said with great anticipation: Brother-in-law, can we keep dolphins at the Duke's mansion?

Changle wants to ride them~

Fang Er: ...

What kind of karma has Li Shimin created? Doesn't he know that such a big child is full of curiosity? Why did he have to talk about Chai Lingwu riding a dolphin!

Changle, look, if we keep dolphins at home, wouldn't they have to leave their parents?

Think about how sad their parents would be.

Can you bear to see their family separated?

Changle licked the lollipop slowly, and after a while, she said with some disappointment: Alright then, but can brother-in-law take Changle to see them often in the future?

I also want to feed them small fish.

Li Shimin, watching their interaction from the cabin, smiled brightly.

Hahahaha, kid, no matter how powerful you are, you have ultimately fallen into my hands!

Fang Xuanling smiled and nodded: Your Majesty is still the most brilliant. In this way, do I not have to settle those debts for him?

Li Shimin immediately glared at him: What are you thinking! Pay it! You must pay it! Not a single copper coin less. Once we return to court, pay it immediately!

Fang Xuanling was utterly confused: Your Majesty, what is this for?

I say, it cannot be said, it cannot be said~~

Li Shimin waved his hand with extreme mystery and then changed the subject.

He began to chat with Fang Xuanling about the high-yield wheat seeds.

There was a severe drought across the land. Fortunately, thanks to the Ministry of Works' efforts in building rivers and canals since last autumn, the crops in the fields were not completely destroyed. Especially the areas where wheat seeds were bred, they were specially managed with water.

They were transported from the Wei River to the fields by cart with great effort and watered piece by piece.

These wheat seeds are too important for the empire!

If these wheat seeds harvested this summer are planted again, they will be almost enough for the entire Henan circuit to sow next autumn.

Besha, Panjin, and Shenyang are nearly five hundred li by sea and over three hundred li by land.

The group stopped in Panjin and rested for a night. The next day at noon, they returned to the Shenyang Duke's Mansion.

The workshops and the gatehouse faced each other. As soon as they entered the courtyard, everyone saw three helicopters parked neatly on the open ground.

On the body of one of the helicopters, a white primer had been applied, and blue paint was used to write: "The Warrior of the Human World, Wei Xuancheng."

Several painters were applying paint to the other two helicopters.

Oh, not bad~~

These big planes look even more imposing after being painted than I imagined!

Li Shimin excitedly ran to the side of "The Warrior of the Human World, Wei Xuancheng," and unhesitatingly touched it with his large hand.

Don't~~~

A painter nearby had just shouted a single word when Li Shimin's hand landed on the character "Wei."

As soon as his hand touched the fuselage, he instantly withdrew it.

Damn, I was too hasty!

The paint on the fuselage was not dry yet. With his slap, he left a large handprint, and his own hand was covered in paint.

Quick, quickly bring oil to wash His Majesty's hands!

Seeing his hand covered in white paint, the painter hurriedly shouted to his artisans in a panic.

The white paint at this time was mixed with lime and tree sap. Many people would develop redness and swelling for a long time after touching tree sap.

In later generations, this is called an allergy~

Moreover, once it gets on the body, it cannot be washed off with clean water.

The only way to clean it is with diesel. The painters discovered this by accident. Although the effect is not ideal, it is much better than leaving it on the body until it peels off on its own.

Hearing this, the artisans quickly brought a barrel of diesel to wash Li Shimin's hands.

The hand stained with paint was rubbed until it was almost raw before the oil paint was completely removed.

He squatted for a long time, and as soon as he stood up to catch his breath, his right hand quickly began to swell and turn red.

Seeing this, Fang Er helplessly patted his forehead. Serves you right for being so meddlesome, you got what you deserved, still showing off!

He took out a blister pack of Chlorfeniramine from his pocket, popped out one pill, and offered it to Li Shimin: Your Majesty, here, take this medicine.

Li Shimin looked at him with confusion: What kind of medicine is this?

Medicine for your hand!

Fang Er said, and then handed the rest, along with the foil blister pack, to the painter nearby: In the future, if anyone touches paint and experiences redness and swelling, taking one of these pills should help alleviate it.

Returning to the back courtyard, Empress Zhangsun and Chai Yueniang were sitting on chairs chatting, while two strong women and Hua Niang watched over Fang Xin and Li Zhi.

The two little fellows were playing happily on the quilt in the courtyard.
