Volume 2 Debt Repayment Chapter 151 Rumors are spreading, and the Wang family has a letter
The prince opened a restaurant, expropriated violently, unscrupulous, and the slightest disobedience will be faced by the prince's unsparing revenge, and some people can't help but start suing the prince, seeing that a great feat of civil prosecution is about to begin, but he didn't expect to be suppressed by the joint efforts of the imperial history and the county order, and the matter is over.
The person who sued the official couldn't bear the humiliation, and there was no way to ask for help, and finally he fainted under the drum, and now there is no news, and I don't know if the prince intervened in this matter, and whether the son who sued is still in the world.
After the spread of the hundreds of onlookers, before the evening, half of Chang'an began to discuss the matter, and such a powerful news made countless people pay attention to it and spread the matter.
In just two hours, it began to turn into several versions.
The horizontal knife snatching love version said that the prince robbed other people's daughters, and after playing, he went to return it to others, and did that kind of unbearable thing in front of men, which is unheard of, and it is really eye-opening.
The conspiracy version says that there are remnants of the previous dynasty, or the remnants of the former prince's party took Li Shimin's methods, and now they are going to attack the future of the prince, the Tang Dynasty.
Caring for women and children has always stated that this prince is just a child, don't ask too much of him, and when he is not a child, he will naturally be enlightened instantly, and suddenly one day everything will be understood, and he will definitely be able to have an epiphany and become a better emperor than Li Shimin.
There are a lot of rumors, mixed good and bad, Li Chengyang didn't have much prestige among the people before, and the prestige of the force explosion that he had managed to accumulate before was also hit into a trough by Li Shimin's operation, and now he is a brainless man with brute force in the eyes of the people.
It's good now, and I have added a reputation for being greedy for money and lustful, and I see that it is about to rot out of the sky, and it is not a few steps away from stopping the night cry of children.
The hater of the rich exists whenever and wherever he wants, and he is naturally very enthusiastic in the face of gossip from the top, trying to collect some gossip from the upper echelons through some news, adding some of his own opinions, drinking and chatting with others, or inadvertently saying it in front of the people he likes, so as to show that he has an essential difference from those guys with a human face and a beast's heart.
The rumors outside are getting more and more outrageous, causing this bullying of men and women to become a trivial matter, and rumors have begun to gradually appear to change the prince to protect the country, and I don't know if there is someone in this operation.
When Li Chengyang got the news from Li Shi, it was already night, and the salt jars in his hand were full one after another, and he happily filled the salt with each jar, and he must protect it, this jar is just a few cows, but it can't be sprinkled, it's not worth much.
Hearing Li Shi's words, Li Chengyang was not angry but happy, which made the angry Li Shi quite confused.
"Good thing, good thing, don't care, let them say it, let them say that I am a disaster for the country and the people, and the situation of not dying is not enough to make the people angry is the best, let your people stop blocking it, those words in the message, young master, I know in my heart whether I have done it or not, you also know, the most important thing is that my father understands it very well, then there is no problem", Li Chengyang hugged the salt jar, and the joy leaking between his words could not be hidden, as if he was said to be a celestial in the rumors.
Li Shi was puzzled, so he had to pull Li Chengyang's sleeve: "Young master, why?" ”。
Li Chengyang took the opportunity to put down the salt jar and took Li Shi's little hand: "No why, because others want to see me like this, but he can't do anything really harmful to me, every day and from time to time I think about whether I will be too famous, now it's okay, someone did it for him, it's good for everyone."
Li Shi's eyes widened, and he stretched out a finger and tapped it on it.
Li Chengyang nodded, hehe Yile: "Don't worry, we are not afraid of shadows, besides, if this rumor can't be controlled, don't we still have a father, if something happens, our future life will be much easier."
After a pause, he pulled up Li Shi and asked, "You have already sent people to find the people who spread the rumors, and you sent those people, and what have you found?"
"It's the people of the secret guard, several uncles have gone, but they still haven't found any news, I only know that Wang Xiao is just temporarily living in the county office, and his three maids are waiting by his side, the county government is being watched by many people, and it is very difficult to get in and out" Li Shi lowered his head and returned, his words were quite unwilling.
"Are those people in the county government watching the lively people today, haven't they gone out much," Li Chengyang suddenly asked.
Li Shi thought for a while: "Less than half of them have returned home, and most of them are still outside the county government clamoring for the government to give them an explanation."
Li Chengyang nodded: "Withdraw the people there, in case you meet the ancestor of the secret guard, you will be dumbfounded, and you will be thrown home, so that others will know that you will not laugh off your big teeth."
"You mean", Li Shi looked up sharply, his eyes full of disbelief.
Li Chengyang poured a bag of coarse salt into the grinding jar, and while grinding it carefully, he gave Li a color: "Just know it in your heart, don't say it outside, okay, go back quickly, it may not be safe tonight, you still have to take care of Xiao'er, don't be taken captive when you go back to the palace, then your young master will lose a lot."
Li Shi left with a complicated face, and Li Chengyang also put down the medicine pestle in his hand and began to keep his teeth in place.
The spread of rumors is fast, but it certainly can't be so fast, and in just a few hours, half of Chang'an has been spread, saying that there is no one to push the flames, that is the hell, and the rumors of changing the prince that came out later, how can not be that ordinary people can come up with, and they don't dare to participate.
There are many people who may contribute to the trouble, and the remnants of the former prince can't accept it, and it is possible to spread rumors with the mentality that death will disgust the royal family.
The remnants of the former dynasty were jealous of the Tang Dynasty, and at this time, the military and the people were single-minded, and it was possible to try to pry the corners of Li Shimin's clothes through this kind of indiscriminate method.
Many people were unwilling, so at first Li Chengyang didn't know who was doing these things.
Later, when he learned that the people who watched the excitement did not sneak out much, Li Chengyang had some ideas in his heart.
The number of people is only a few hundred, and even fewer will jump out and talk about it constantly, and to exaggerate, after reading this matter, there are hundreds of people talking to others, and it is impossible for those who have two hearts to get the news in such a short time and start spreading rumors.
The only one who can get the news as soon as possible and has so much strength to complete this matter is only one person in Datang.
Oh, I thought you had changed your mind, father and son were of the same heart, but I didn't expect such a little thing to be unbearable and hurriedly jumped out to stir up trouble, dirty, really dirty.
He cursed silently in his heart, and then began to continue to make salt.
"Your Majesty has arrived!".
said that Cao Cao Cao Cao is here, but he hasn't said it yet, but he just thought in his heart, this is coming?
Holding a medicine jar and going out to greet him, Li Shimin entered the East Palace with a huff and a drink.
"Dad, what are you doing here, you're done with today's business? Then you should also go to my mother's, I don't have time to entertain you when you come to me, I'm busy making money", Li Chengyang gave a hasty salute, holding the medicine jar as if holding everything.
Li Shimin waved his hand to let the entourage retreat, and came up with a kick: "Pay back the money, do you know that the outside world says so about you, you still have to calm down and fiddle with these, seeing that tomorrow there will be countless imperial impeachments and you are going to replace you, you still have the leisure to be here."
"What's the matter? I didn't go anywhere today, I even did this salt-making thing myself, I was cautious enough, why was I still impeached, I don't care, I will impeach me if I am impeached, I don't go to court, I am idle every day", Li Chengyang pouted and said dissatisfied.
Li Shimin raised his leg and kicked again: "How to speak, the imperial history is a rumor, and if you hear a little trouble, you have to report it, otherwise it will be their dereliction of duty, how can it become idle in your mouth, and it will be okay to be idle."
Li Chengyang smiled innocently: "Dad, if you want to scold, you can scold, I don't believe that you don't bother that group of people day by day, I'm annoyed by hearing this, and there are no outsiders, what are you doing with it."
Li Shimin's face turned red: "Why am I holding it, look at your child."
Li Chengyang shrugged his shoulders and patted the shoe prints behind him: "Who knows what you think, but whatever is rumored outside, let you come in person, it's hard for someone to stab me again."
Li Shimin slowed down for a long time, and then he told him all about the remarks circulating outside and the causes and consequences of this incident.
"Then dad, what are you going to let me do, anyway, I didn't do those things, you can do what you say", Li Chengyang put the medicine jar down and asked Li Shimin.
Li Shimin touched his chin: "What are you going to do?" ”。
"Me? Whatever, anyway, Lao Zhao's household registration has long been changed to the household registration of the people of the Tang Dynasty, I went to have a meal and let him see it and come up to frame me, and sue him for a wave, so that he can't eat and walk around", Li Chengyang touched his chin, and then saw Li Shimin, full of flattery:
"You can also take this opportunity to sue the Wang family once, or simply bring all the families with you, participate in their competition with the people, and expel all the people from the family from the court, anyway, it is their people who move first, I will govern them in the way of others, and they can't say anything, maybe they can also separate the relationship between the Wang family and the rest of the family, and kill more than one stone, this is the opportunity that Wang Xiao took the initiative to send, father, your son, gave up this body and did it with them."
It was originally a joke, but Li Shimin was silent, and shook his head after thinking about it: "Forget it, keep it for later, as long as you don't speak, then this matter will never be overturned, tomorrow you go to Dali Temple, go through the motions, send that kid away, and then you will come back, remember, you can't talk to the people of the family anyway."
Li Shimin left after giving the order, Li Chengyang slurred his lips, and did not talk to the family, which means that Li Chengyang did not forgive this matter, and waited for the future to not know what opportunity there would be, Li Shimin would let him come out and send the first shot to bring down the family.
It's still the same sentence, dirty, really dirty.
Just as he was about to turn around and continue to make salt, the guard at the door ran over and handed over a letter: "This is a letter sent by Wang Qi and Wang Yusto, saying that it must be opened by His Royal Highness on the spot."
Li Chengyang smashed a medicine pestle on the head of the guard: "You can do what he says, what if this letter is poisonous, be careful that you can't eat and walk around, you open it for me, and read what is on it."
The guard's head was smashed in pain, but he didn't dare to make a move, obediently opened the letter, took out a piece of letter paper from it and read it:
"My Wang family is not filial to Wang Xiao, the ghost is obsessed, and he falsely accuses ......."
"Stop", Li Chengyang covered the guard's mouth, and at the same time snatched the letter paper, crumpled it into a ball and threw it into the fire in the kitchen, and ordered the stunned guard: "You don't know about this, you haven't received any letters, remember, no, remember death, don't say this until you die, otherwise you will die now."
The guard went out with a confused face, Li Chengyang looked back at the fire in the kitchen and raised his eyebrows, put the medicine jar back in the kitchen, and went to bed early, there must be a lot of things waiting for him tomorrow, and now he has to recuperate.
