Chapter 1773: A Generation of Powerful Ministers, Frustrated People!
Before Li Zexuan went to the Xuanjia Army to take up his post, he came to Qinfu in Chang'an City to visit Qin Qiong.
At that time, Cheng Yanjin happened to be in the Qin Mansion. The three of them drank happily at noon, but Li Er suddenly killed!
At noon that day, Li Zexuan and Li Er talked about three things: recruiting veterans, dividing the Turks, and calling on merchants to help the imperial court raise military funds.
Since there was no one else present in the house at that time, and whether it was Li Zexuan, Cheng Yanjin, Qin Qiong and Li Er, they were all tight-lipped people, and they would definitely not publicize these things to outsiders, so Mrs. Cheng naturally didn't know that this fundraising meeting was written by Li Zexuan, and it was also instructed by Li Er!
"What? This fundraising meeting turned out to be really made by Xiao Xuan? And His Majesty also agreed? ”
After Cheng Yanjin told the original conversation between Li Zexuan and Li Er in the Qin Mansion that day (of course, he only talked about the part about calling on businessmen to raise military funds), Mrs. Cheng was silent for a moment, a little incredulous.
"Then can there be a fake? The old man was on the scene at that time! ”
After explaining, Cheng Yanjin's whole person relaxed, he picked up the dishes and chopsticks again, and began to continue to eat.
Who knows, at this time, Mrs. Cheng slapped the table, stared at her, and said angrily: "You old thing, since this fundraising meeting was made by Xiao Xuan, how can our family only donate 5,000 yuan?" And this matter is still instructed by His Majesty, if our family donates less, this Manchu civil and military people don't know how to arrange our family in secret! ”
Hearing this, Cheng Yanjin was stunned, he secretly said in his heart, this woman's face changed faster than turning a book, and she was still saying that she donated more, but now she doesn't donate much! It's unreasonable!
"Then with Madame's meaning, how much should our family donate?"
Cheng bit the gold and smashed the mouth, and asked tentatively.
After all, in terms of money, Cheng Mansion is still in charge of Mrs. Cheng!
Mrs. Cheng thought about it seriously, and then said, "Then donate 8,000 yuan!" The concubine just checked the accounts of the wine shop a few days ago, and now there is a lot of money left in the account, so we can still come up with 8,000 yuan! ”
When Cheng Biting Jin had not yet made a career, Mrs. Cheng followed him, and these two were also considered a couple in distress, so Cheng Biting Jin respected Mrs. Cheng so much. And although Mrs. Cheng seems to be brutal and spicy on weekdays, she is very affectionate and righteous, she understands who brought the Cheng family's situation of making money today, so when she heard that this fundraising meeting was made by Li Zexuan, she suddenly lost that kind of "little family spirit", and became generous!
"Hey, hey! Yes! Then listen to Madame's and donate 8,000 yuan! ”
Cheng Yanjin laughed, and drank the wine in the cup again!
"Alas, master, I don't know how our ugly cow is doing in the Xuanjia Army camp!"
Speaking of Li Zexuan, Mrs. Cheng couldn't help but think of her eldest son, she sighed, and said: "I heard that in the army in Chang'an City now, the training task of the Xuanjia Army is heavier, and I don't know if the ugly cow can eat it!" ”
"Uh-huh! That kid's skin is tight, and he puts it in the Xuanjia Army just to make people practice and practice! Madam, don't worry, anyone can be fine, just he will be fine! Besides, there is Xiao Xuan taking care of him! ”
Cheng Yanjin felt that he had almost eaten, so he sat comfortably on the chair and said.
For Cheng Chumo, he was not worried at all, if he could withstand more than half a year's training under the bearded guest, how could he be stumped by the Xuanjia Army? Even if he doesn't worry about Cheng Chumo, but there is also Li Zexuan, Lao Cheng is 10,000 at ease for Li Zexuan!
"You old thing, your own son doesn't care at all! How can you be a little bit of a father! ”
Mrs. Cheng scolded Cheng for biting gold, and then got up and left.
…………………………………………
A similar situation is not only happening in Cheng's house tonight.
The Qin family, the Wei Chi family, the Niu family, and the Weiguo Mansion also had a similar situation tonight. These companies have an extremely good relationship with Li Zexuan, and after they learned from various sources that the fundraising meeting was written by Li Zexuan, they all made the decision to donate money.
This is an official of the military general's camp, and unexpectedly, there are many people in the civilian camp who want to donate money through this fundraising meeting.
Zhao Guogong Mansion.
"Chong'er, you go to our family's iron shop tomorrow, and ask Shopkeeper Sun to prepare 5,000 yuan, and then donate it at the fundraising meeting in two days!"
In the study, the eldest grandson Wuji rushed to the eldest grandson.
"Daddy? Do we want to participate in a fundraising meeting? The child read the newspaper and said, "Isn't this a fund-raising event for businessmen only?" ”
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Chong was puzzled.
"Isn't the king's shopkeeper a merchant?"
The eldest grandson Wuji shook his head and said in a quiet tone: "Alas! Chong'er, you don't understand, this fundraising meeting is a helpless move by His Majesty to solve the emptiness of the treasury and the lack of military funds, and our eldest grandson family must make a contribution! ”
As the head of the civil service, he is naturally much better informed than others, and just from the information currently circulating outside, he can also deduce the general ins and outs of the matter. The final decision-maker of the fundraising conference is Li Er, and the ultimate beneficiary is the imperial court, the eldest grandson is a relative of the emperor, if he sets an example in this matter, it will inevitably lose points in Li Er's mind, and the eldest grandson Wuji does not want to lose Li Er's trust!
"This fundraiser is actually the handiwork of His Majesty?"
Hearing this, the eldest grandson Chong said with a look of surprise: "The child thought that the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce wanted to show the plan he came up with in front of His Majesty!" ”
Eldest Sun Wuji shook his head again and said: "The idea of this fundraising conference may not have been thought up by Your Majesty, but it must have been approved by Your Majesty in advance, and the Yanhuang Chamber of Commerce is just the implementer!" Now it seems that the weight of this Li Zexuan in His Majesty's heart is really getting heavier and heavier! At a young age, this son was awarded the title of marquis, and the side of the splitting earth, and now he is serving in the Xuanjia Army, if he makes another war in the Turkic War, this move is up and down, I'm afraid no one can suppress him, right? ”
There are both civil governance and martial arts, this is what Li Zexuan makes the eldest grandson Wuji feel frightened, and more importantly, Li Zexuan is young enough, at a young age, he can make such a feat, this time, their eldest grandson's family is probably not worth mentioning in front of Li Zexuan, right?
Hearing his father's evaluation of Li Zexuan like this, the eldest grandson Chong lowered his head and didn't dare to say a word.
In Yanhuang Academy for more than a year, he has seen too many people and things, which has made his mood and vision have undergone some changes.
In the eyes of the eldest grandson, Li Zexuan is changing the whole world with his own strength! He admires Li Zexuan from the bottom of his heart!
"Chong'er, for your father to let you enroll in Yanhuang Academy, what can you find out in the past year? Li Zexuan, what is his attitude towards the eldest grandson's family? ”
Seeing that the eldest grandson Chong was silent, the eldest grandson Wuji asked.
At the beginning, Yanhuang Academy had just been established, and under the leadership of Li Tai and Li Ke, many children of officials and eunuchs in the capital chose to enter Yanhuang Academy, and Changsun Chong was one of them, but he went with the task given to him by Changsun Wuji.
The eldest grandson Wuji wants the eldest grandson to rush to Li Zexuan in the academy to test Li Zexuan's attitude towards the eldest grandson family, if it can be wooed, it is the best, if it can't be wooed, and Li Zexuan's hostility towards the eldest grandson family is more obvious, then the eldest grandson Wuji will have to consider getting rid of Li Zexuan!
He didn't want anyone to break his position as the head of the hundred officials!
A generation of powerful ministers has now begun to show their ambitions!
"Dad, the mountain chief doesn't like to fight, at present, he still has good intentions towards our eldest grandson's family, after all, you have helped the mountain chief a few times before! But if you want to use this to recruit the mountain chief to our eldest grandson's house and use it for you, the child thinks it is impossible!
In fact, the mountain chief likes to delve into knowledge and develop engineering, and he has no intention of fighting in the court. According to the child, you don't have to care so much about the attitude of the mountain chief, as long as our eldest grandson doesn't take the initiative to provoke him, I don't think he will be our enemy! ”
After thinking seriously for a moment, Eldest Sun Chong said cautiously to Eldest Sun Wuji.
In fact, these words are already suspected of favoring Li Zexuan. Yanhuang Academy is a very magical and magical place, and anyone who stays there for a long time can't help but love it. I like the beautiful scenery there, I like the atmosphere there, and I like the persistent and pure people there, so even when the pirate leader of the bearded guest is about to leave the academy, there will be a lot of reluctance, how can Changsun Chong be an exception?
Under the subtle influence of the academy, his personality has gradually undergone some changes, which he may not even be aware of! And Li Zexuan, as the head of Yanhuang Academy, is the spiritual leader in the hearts of all the teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy, and the eldest grandson Chong naturally does not want a conflict between his most respected father and his most admired spiritual idol, so he will say this!
"It's tantamount to a court fight? Hehe! ”
When the eldest grandson Wuji heard this, he smiled inexplicably and said: "He is in the game, but I am afraid that he will not be able to control him many times!" That's it, now that the Tang Dynasty is in more serious trouble, it is the most important thing to solve the Turks first, as for Li Zexuan, pay attention to him again! ”
After that, the eldest grandson Wuji rubbed his eyebrows a little tiredly, and then waved to the eldest grandson Chong and said, "The hour is not early, Chong'er, you go and rest!" ”
"Yes! Father! ”
The eldest grandson arched his hand, then turned to leave.

Taiyuan, the ancestral home of the Wang family!
In a desolate courtyard, in a side room, there are still candles.
"Second son, my subordinates heard that no clan elder has left for Qizhou so far, it seems that the eldest son's wedding is all about ruining his future!"
A middle-aged man with a hooked nose bowed to a teenager.
The young man sat on the couch with his hair scattered, and when he heard this, a dazzling light burst out of his originally lifeless eyes.
"So, the family is about to depose him?"
The young man sat up, leaned forward, looked at the middle-aged man with a hooked nose, and said with an excited expression.
Reflecting the candlelight, the young man's appearance was completely revealed, isn't this Wang Renyi, the second son of the Taiyuan royal family?
Last year, Wang Renyi colluded with mountain bandits in Chang'an City and kidnapped Han Yuxi, and finally the mountain bandits were exterminated, and he, the second son of the Wang family, was also imprisoned, and later Li Er returned Wang Renyi to the Wang family and handed it over to the Wang family to dispose of by themselves!
At that time, in order to seek Li Zexuan's forgiveness and calm Li Zexuan's anger, Wang Yu also went to Chang'an to apologize to Li Zexuan in person, Li Zexuan let go of his murderous intentions against Wang Renyi, and Wang Yu also assured Li Zexuan that Wang Renyi would be imprisoned in the ancestral house of the Wang family and would never be able to step out of the house forever!
The hook-nosed man nodded excitedly and said, "It should be!" Otherwise, the eldest son of the Wang family will get married, and the clan elders should go to congratulate them on their feelings! But until now, the clan elders have not moved, which means that the eldest prince has angered the clan elders, and it is only a matter of time before he is deposed! When the time comes, the second son will definitely be the new heir of the family! ”
"Hehehehehe! Finally...... I, Wang Renyi, have finally waited for this day! Hahaha! I want revenge! I want Li Zexuan to die! No, I can't let him be so cheap, I'm going to kidnap his wife, kill his father, and ruin his family! ”
Wang Renyi stood up, turned his back to the sky, and laughed maniacally.
"Congratulations to the second son on regaining his freedom!"
The hook-nosed man knelt on the ground and arched his hand.
"Huh! If he is on the throne in the future, you Xiao Qing will be the first person next to this son, and your brother's revenge, this son will help you avenge it! ”
Wang Renyi laughed wildly for a long time, and finally returned to normal, but there was still a flush of excitement on his face, he looked at the middle-aged man, and said lightly.
At this moment, the decadent and lifeless teenager was gone, replaced by an ambitious madman!
"Thank you, Second Son!"
The hook-nosed man's name is Xiao Qing, Xiao Ying's younger brother, and he and Xiao Ying are both from the Qinghe Cui clan of Wang Renyi's mother. Last year, Wang Renyi instructed Xiao Ying to kidnap Han Yuxi and wanted to get the formula of fairy drunkenness, although Wang Renyi escaped death by luck afterwards, Xiao Ying was naturally pushed out to blame, and was finally beheaded!
In April this year, the Qinghe Cui clan, the Boling Cui clan, and the Xingyang Zheng clan were wiped out by the imperial army in Guancheng County, losing the support of their mother family, and Wang Renyi's situation was even more difficult.
He never thought that Wang Renyi would have a chance to make a comeback, how could Xiao Qing not be overjoyed?
"I can't go out yet, you go and help me continue to pay attention to the movement outside, and as soon as there is news, come and inform me immediately!"
Although Wang Renyi is still wearing a cloak, but his temperament has regained his former calm and composure, and he commanded Xiao Qing with his hand.
"Yes! Second son! ”
Xiao Qing took the order and left.
