When Li Shui saw that the courtiers were quiet, he raised his trumpet.

He suddenly sighed quietly: "Throughout the ages, so many powerful and powerful people have been turned into piles of dung. How many aristocratic families have been submerged in the long river of time. How many people with lofty ideals have been lost to everyone."

These words were very sensational, and many people had goosebumps when they heard them.

Li Shui continued: "I have seen too many such things. I saw him building a tall building, watching him entertain guests, and seeing his building collapse."

"As the saying goes, everyone in the world knows that gods are good, but they can't forget their fame and fame. In the end, the dynasty will only regret that there are not many people..."

A courtier interrupted Li Shui and said, "I have read both Exalted Immortals and Dream of Red Mansions. Just get to the point."

Li Shui was stunned and couldn't help scratching his head: "It seems so, Dream of Red Mansions has been published."

The publication of A Dream of Red Mansions was based on Li Shui's dictation of the general plot and Wei Young's polishing and editing.

Li Shui talked about other plots very casually, but for the more famous poems, such as A Bitter Tears and What a Song, Li Shui remembered them clearly and recited them to Weiyang in full.

Weiyang also thought these poems were very good, so she wrote them in Dream of Red Mansions.

Unexpectedly, these courtiers have very good memories.

Li Shui originally wanted to use these poems to create the feeling of a cultural person, but it failed.

He coughed dryly and said: "What I mean is that wealth and nobility are passed down from generation to generation? Are you confident that you will still be in a high position after several generations?"

The courtiers all shook their heads.

Li Shui said: "I have only been in the imperial court for a few years. How many adults have already left us? Wang Li, Ma Lingshu, Wu Yue, Zhao Gao..."

The courtiers all looked helpless and thought to themselves: Wasn't this all caused by you? Calculating this, you are really a great harm to the court.

Li Shui continued: "Some of these people have had their homes confiscated, and some have had their clans exterminated. Even if there are people who have been exterminated, there are still people in their distant relatives."

"These descendants of the guilty ministers are suffering from hunger and cold, and their lives are very unsatisfactory. I am very sad in my heart and want to help them."

The courtiers were speechless, feeling that Li Shui's behavior was very hypocritical...

First, confiscate the family and exterminate the family, and then help the orphans and widows? Isn’t this taking off your pants and farting?

Li Shui added: "But my strength alone is too weak, and there are too many people suffering from poverty. I can't help them, so I want to ask everyone to help."

The courtiers all had mysterious smiles on their faces.

Sure enough, here comes the time to pay. You know that Ban Xian will not let go of any opportunity to make money.

But they did not leave. They believed in their determination and would not spend even a penny today.

Li Shui continued: "Therefore, I kindly ask all of you to come up with a few pieces of gold, and we can set up a mutual aid fund."

The courtiers asked curiously: "What is mutual aid fund?"

Li Shui said: "We are all colleagues, and our acquaintance is fate. If any of our colleagues commits a crime, and the orphans and widows are in poverty, we will use some money from this mutual aid fund to relieve them. Isn't this the case?

Is it good?"

Courtiers, you look at me and I look at you, thinking: This suggestion sounds really good and a good deed. But... why should we use money to relieve them?

Li Shui said: "Of course, we can't be too kind. There are so many officials in the world and there are many criminals. Why should we help them all?"

"A few days ago, I watched Master Bajie's introduction to Buddhism. Buddhism talks about cause and effect. We have no cause and effect with them, so we don't need to worry about them."

"So I suggested that we only rescue courtiers who participated in the mutual aid fund."

"For example, the Prime Minister participated in the mutual aid fund and once donated ten pieces of gold. But Mr. Tingwei did not participate."

"If one day both of them commit crimes, we will only help the prime minister's family, not Tingwei's family."

"Why? Because the Prime Minister's mutual aid fund has helped others. He has a cause and effect with us. But Mr. Tingwei has no cause and effect with us, so we don't need to worry about him."

Wang Wan and Li Si both had dark faces.

The courtiers thought for a while and nodded slightly, feeling that what Li Shui said was reasonable and fair.

You have never taken money. If you encounter trouble and want money, it is simply impossible.

Li Shui said sincerely: "Therefore, I ask you to show your kindness and donate part of your money to the mutual aid fund to help the families of those guilty officials and help your former colleagues."

The courtiers all nodded.

Doing good deeds is recognized by them, and the good deeds are not without any benefit. One day in the future, if this happens to you, doesn't it leave a way out for your children?

So a courtier asked: "How to donate this mutual aid fund at a specific time?"

Li Shui immediately waved his hand, and one of the craftsmen brought over a stack of paper, and each of them gave them one piece.

It was written clearly on the paper, and it was divided into nine levels according to the amount of donation.

The higher the level, the more money you can get if something happens in the future.

For example, if you donate one yi of gold, if something happens in the future, your family will receive ten yi of gold.

For example, if you donate 100 yi, you can get 1000 yi when something happens in the future.

The courtiers were immediately very interested and nodded one after another, saying: "This method of banishing immortals is safe and fair."

Li Si and Wang Wan also nodded repeatedly.

However, they always felt that something was wrong. This mutual aid fund seemed strange. But they couldn't explain what was strange.

Suddenly, Li Si reacted and slapped his thigh: "What's the mutual aid fund? Isn't this the home insurance policy?"
