Chapter 58: The head of the Wang family
His situation is a little embarrassing now, I just hope that in the case of the undercurrent, it is one thing to be missing, if his Li family is now involved in right and wrong, he will definitely be used by the villain and endure it.
"Master, please speak." Li Yuan still responded politely.
Wang Huicong was very satisfied with Li Yuan's attitude, as if it should be like this, and said directly with his beard: "Jinyang bandits, bandits from all walks of life have gathered, and they have hijacked the Jinyang caravan several times in the rest of the month, since Tang Guogong stayed in Taiyuan Mansion and hoped to solve this matter as soon as possible and return the losses of Jinyang merchants." ”
As soon as Li Yuan heard this, the responsibility of his demotion was to solve the mountain bandits and wanderers, and he responded: "There will be an explanation for this matter." ”
"I wonder when Tang Guogong will be able to solve it?" Wang Huicong continued to ask.
Li Yuan was embarrassed, and suddenly felt that Wang Huicong's matter was too domineering, when would the Wang family be able to meddle in the affairs of public office, it was too much.
At this time, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.
Li Shimin arched his hand and said: "Father, the matter of suppressing bandits should be put on the agenda, but I don't know much about the bandit situation when I first come here, so it is better to send someone to investigate the situation before making a decision." ”
"What the second brother said is reasonable, it's better to leave this matter to me, and I will definitely be able to find out the bandits in less than three days." Li Jiancheng continued.
"Okay, you must find out as soon as possible."
Li Yuan saw that his son was relieved, he was not stupid, he would use troops when he came out of your land, winning or losing was very important, it was related to his family, and he couldn't be sloppy.
"Master, rest assured, my country's public will do what he says." Li Yuan still said politely.
Wang Huicong didn't hear about the direct dispatch of troops, and was a little disappointed in Li Yuan, but he didn't agree to it, so he simply gave him a lot of face, and if he thought about it, he might be gossiped about.
As a great Confucian, what I care about most is reputation.
There is also an upright character, as long as the concept is not in agreement, the sky is afraid of the air, no matter who you are, you dare to be the enemy of the world's scholars, if you don't want the country, you can try.
Full of confidence.
"I hope that Tang Guogong will solve this matter as soon as possible, and the old man will leave."
Wang Huicong turned around and left, and when he turned around, he stared at Li De for a while, with an atmosphere on his face, and finally stared at Li De: "I don't know the etiquette." ”
Li De ate well, and when he heard that he was told for no reason, is there still a king law, is there still a law?
"Respect the old and love the young, don't worry about you first." Li De said casually.
The father and son of the Li family are frightened, but they are the head of the Wang family, it is not good for you to openly provoke.
Li Yuan was anxious, Li De was his guest and his benefactor, if he really angered the Wang family, their Li family was not afraid, but he couldn't guarantee that Li De would not be hated by the Wang family.
"Ruyi Lang don't say more, the master of the Wang family is a famous Confucian, and he has integrity, and there is nothing wrong with teaching you a lesson." Mrs. Dou spoke, and her majesty was no worse than that of Tang Guo.
Wang Huicong didn't care, the reason is very simple, Mrs. Dou is a relative of the emperor, if it weren't for the Yang family taking away her uncle's throne, her status would be even more transcendent.
The wealthy family is a little good, the most orthodox, they dare to look down on the father and son of the Yang family, but they will respect the lineage, and they are surprised that they don't know what the identity of the young man is, and he can make Mrs. Dou speak.
Wang Huicong ignored it and left directly.
Li De was a little depressed in his heart, he had a chance to play, but all the people here were ruthless people, the future royal generation and the second generation of the emperor, wouldn't it be very shameless to let you go like this.
"That old man, stay." Li De suddenly stopped Wang Huicong.
Wang Huicong originally wanted to give Mrs. Dou a face, but the situation did not allow it, his Wang family had never been afraid of anyone, and he wanted to know what the other party would say when he stopped him.
Everyone looked at Li De, especially Mrs. Dou who originally wanted to protect him, but if she didn't know what to do, things would not end well, and she was a little worried.
Pei Qingxuan is by Li De's side, although she is only a nominal husband and wife, but you can't be bullied by others, you just let others bully, she has already thought that if things change, she will definitely protect Li De with all her might.
The atmosphere was silent and tense.
Wang Huicong is very angry now, the other party calls "that old man", he is not afraid of putting it in his eyes, it is really hateful for a junior to be so rude, I can't imagine that Li Yuantang would invite such a person.
Li Yuan may not have imagined that he was lowered by Li De in the hearts of others.
"What's the matter?" Wang Huicong still spoke first.
"Oh, it's not a big deal, I just wanted to say, let's eat fish together when we have time." Li De said something for no reason, which made people feel inexplicable.
Wang Huicong was even more dazed, eat fish, what kind of fish do you eat, are you very familiar with it?
"I just think you're pretty picky." Li De continued.
Wang Huicong linked the two sentences together, how could he not know that the other party was using this to sarcastically mock him, and he didn't throw his sleeves and leave.
Li De shrugged his shoulders and continued, "I am sincere. ”
Pei Qingxuan couldn't help laughing, since he was in contact with Li De, he has never seen him suffer, and it is the same today, but he feels funny.
Mrs. Dou frowned and couldn't hold back, thinking about it, Wang Huicong is really good at picking thorns, not only that, but the Li family even came to stir up trouble, which is really excessive.
"Li Gongzi's words are very interesting, I have time to eat fish together, I see that you are very good at picking thorns, hahaha, interesting."
Li Yuan's mood suddenly improved a lot, to say that the Wang family is really domineering, if you offend, you will be offended, he is still afraid of him after he is a nobleman of the Tang Kingdom, and he is not afraid of it.
"Brother Li speaks funny, and the younger brother toasts you." Li Shimin said.
Drink?
Li De hesitated, what are you kidding, you can't drink if you are allergic to alcohol, and think that it should be fine.
Two voices suddenly appeared in his head.
One said, "Wine is a poison that pierces the intestines, and color is a steel knife that scrapes bones." Wealth is a tiger descending from the mountain, and anger is the root of trouble. Can't drink it. ”
Another said: "After all, there is no banquet without wine, and the people in the colorless world are thinning." Who is willing to get up early without wealth, and is bullied everywhere without anger. ”
One said: "Drinking is the highest if you are not drunk, and being lustful and not disorderly is heroic." Don't take ill-gotten gains, endure anger and self-destruction. ”
Another said, "There are four walls of wine and wealth, and everyone hides in them." Who can jump out of the wall, not a god will live a long life. ”
"Okay."
Li De agreed to come down, learn from the way the ancients drank, with his sleeves in front of him, who knows if you drink or not, if you want to love and not be drunk.
After the banquet, Li De and Pei Qingxuan returned to the room.
In the hall of the Guogong Mansion at this time, Li Yuan's face was very bad, and Wang Huicong really angered him just now.
"Father, someone just reported that the Jinyang caravan is the property of the Wang family, and the purpose of letting us send troops to suppress the bandits is already obvious to recover the losses for the Wang family." Li Jiancheng said in a deep voice.
"The Wang family is really a good idea." Li Yuan said fiercely.
