Chapter 853 Confession

Chapter 853

After having dinner at the Jinyang Marquis' Mansion, Qin Huaidao went to the post house, and Qin Huaidao arrived in Taiyuan, the local officials in Taiyuan must need to come to visit, they all know that Qin Huaidao's power is very great, he controls Dali Temple, and all officials need to ask Qin Huaidao's opinion for promotion.

In addition, the appointment of the third-grade officials also needs Qin Huaidao's vote, so those officials dare not come, and the army's is not to mention, they are already close to Qin Huaidao, knowing that Qin Huaidao is his own person, early the next morning, Qin Huaidao is about to prepare to set off and return to Beijing, so early in the morning, Li Zhi came over to see him off.

"You go back and bring a word to my eldest brother, I'm honest!" Li Zhi and Qin Huaidao walked side by side, and Li Zhi spoke.

"Okay, I hope that's the case, in addition, if this matter is known by King Wu, you will also be troublesome, find a way to solve it yourself, and the matter of the head of the family, you will also be troublesome, don't wait for them to retaliate against you, you will not be able to eat and walk around at that time." Qin Huaidao nodded and spoke, but Li Zhi did not speak.

"If you really can't save your own life, just save the lives of those two children, when the time comes, send someone to the capital, I will send it to my father, no matter what, these two children are his grandchildren, he can't care, as for you, take care." Qin Huaidao continued to explain to Li Zhi,

Li Zhi heard it and nodded, and then Qin Huaidao got on the horse and returned to Beijing.

On the side of the capital, the officials of the family were very angry, and they had been sitting outside the Chengtian Palace, hoping that Li Shimin would come out to talk to them.

"It's not like that, why are you sitting here? It's all scattered! Li Chengqian was about to report the situation to Li Shimin, and when he saw so many officials sitting there, he said to those officials very unhappily.

"Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, we hope that Your Majesty can give us an explanation, why did you arrest our family masters? And what exactly is to be done? Cui Renshi stood up and said to Li Chengqian.

"Why do you think they would arrest them if they didn't break the law? Isn't it a crime to assassinate the father and the orphan? Li Chengqian shouted angrily at those officials, they heard it, they were all stunned, although there were such rumors before, but after all, it was not confirmed, but now from Li Chengqian's mouth, it is indeed a little scary.

"Your Highness, you can't talk nonsense, how could our family master do such a thing?" Cui Renshi still looked at Li Chengqian in disbelief and said, he believed it in his heart, but he couldn't believe it in his mouth, otherwise, how could he save it?

"There is a confession, there is a confession from your family? They themselves acquiesced, do you know that their every move will not work? Okay, scattered! What are you doing sitting here? Li Chengqian waved his sleeves and walked away, not telling them.

"Your Highness, does Your Majesty have to kill our family master?" Cui Renshi stood there, shouting at Li Chengqian's back.

Li Chengqian heard it, turned around, stared at Cui Renshi and asked, "Shouldn't you be killed?" They committed such a serious crime that they should not be killed? ”

"This?" Cui Renshi didn't know how to answer, Li Chengqian glared at him fiercely, turned around and left, and entered the Chengtian Palace.

"Erchen has seen his father, the interrogation has ended, Yang Fan and they truthfully confessed the crime, but those family heads are still silent, Erchen does not dare to torture them, I am afraid that they will not be clear when the time comes, after all, when the time comes, they have injuries on their bodies, and outsiders can see it!" Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin.

"It won't work without them admitting it!" Li Shimin put down the book and spoke.

"Yes, Erchen is also worried about this, if they don't admit it in person, it will be difficult to convince the public, and they can't block the mouth of the world, and Erchen is not doing well, and he asks his father to punish him!" Li Chengqian bowed his head and said to Li Shimin.

"You can't beat them, it's useless to scold, ask them, and they won't say, hey!" Li Shimin stood up, walked out of the window with his hands behind his back, and saw the officials outside.

"They have decided that their head of the house will not admit it, and if they can't give them a satisfactory answer, what do they say?" Li Shimin looked at the situation outside the window and asked Li Chengqian.

"I don't know!" Li Chengqian arched his hand and said.

"What do you say, what are you afraid of?" Li Shimin said to Li Chengqian a little unhappily.

"Yes, it is estimated that they will resign and leave, and even say that they may start plotting against each other, but a few days ago, Pepin and I said that if we kill them, we will appoint a family head for them, so that they will be in chaos internally, after all, the money is given to them by our labor department, not the head of the family that we recognize, we don't give money, and then they can only be divided, which is good for us to deal with the family." Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin.

"Haha, when Peping made this share, it had this meaning, he told his father, but I didn't expect it to come in handy." Li Shimin laughed, and Li Chengqian also laughed in the back.

"Without Peping, it is impossible for us to grasp the initiative now, although the family is still very powerful, but compared to before, now they have no advantage, the father is not worried that they will rebel, but if they resign, it will still have a great impact on the court,

In the past two days, my father has been looking at the list and positions of those officials, thinking about who can replace their positions, hey, there are still not enough talents, those people cultivated by your East Palace are not of great use now, it is estimated that it will take more than ten years, some of these people still have to stay, of course, some want to leave, we will not stop them! Li Shimin looked at the officials below and continued.

"But if they can't convince the public, I guess they will all quit and leave." Li Chengqian looked at Li Shimin and said.

"Is there no way? Is Pepin back? Li Shimin turned his head to look at Li Chengqian.

"Erchen is stupid, there is no better way, but, calculating the distance, it is estimated that he should leave in Taiyuan today, he is riding a horse, and it is estimated that he will be able to come back in about three days." Li Chengqian said to Li Shimin,

Li Shimin nodded, and explained to Li Chengqian: "Come back, let him come to the palace, and ask him if there is a way!" ”

"Yes, he will definitely come over to report the situation to his father when the time comes." Li Chengqian nodded and said, and then the father and son talked about the affairs of the family, and they didn't come back until very late.

The next day, there were still a large number of officials waiting outside the Chengtian Palace, hoping to find Li Shimin to reason, a large number of concerts were sent, but none of them were approved, and the people, for the head of the family was arrested, some people also knew, there was a lot of gossip, many people knew, they were all applauded, they were dissatisfied with the family,

The price of salt rose all the way back then, but the people suffered, and this time they also heard that the family actually sent someone to assassinate the emperor and the prince, so the family was arrested, and they all applauded, and few people said that there was anything to talk about.

"Madam, now many officials outside are asking to see!" Li Lixian sat in the living room, counting the account books,

Now every day, someone from the Qin Mansion will come to visit, of course, they also know that Qin Huaidao is not in the mansion, but they all sent a post, and Li Lixian has to deal with it, so they can only settle accounts in the living room.

"If you don't see it, just say, it's useless for them to come when the master is not in the house!" Li Lixian said unhappily.

"But they said they wanted to see you, Madame!" The housekeeper said to Li Lixian again. When Li Lixian heard this, she looked up at the housekeeper in surprise.

"That's exactly what they said." The butler emphasized again.

"Why did you see me? Missing? Idle them? Don't they have anything to do? Come and ask me a princess? I haven't finished the accounts here, and the Chinese New Year is coming soon. Li Lixian said very unhappily, for those officials, Li Lixian will not go to receive them.

"Yes, then I'll go talk to them!" The butler said and withdrew,

And Qin Yu, Qin Ren, and Qin Yuan were all playing in the living room, and several maids were watching here. Li Lizhi also came over with her daughter, Wu Mei was sitting next to her to settle accounts, and now Chunmei Chunyan and they are also responsible for some small things, and they also need to settle accounts, the two of them are no longer the maids of the Qin Mansion, and they are also the masters.

"It is estimated that it is for the affairs of those family heads, don't get involved in the suburbs, my father must have an idea, and the lord will also consider it, we can't get involved, before the lord comes back, it's better for us not to see them." Li Lizhi sat there and spoke.

"I know, see what they do? I don't care about such things, I still think about the expenses of our Qin Mansion next year, the expenses of the Qin Mansion next year are a lot, the lord definitely needs to build a mansion over there in Licheng, and now the five princes of the Qin Mansion, one county prince, and a county prince of the good way, all need to build mansions, and now only two mansions have been established, and 4 mansions need to be built, hey, headache! Li Lixian touched her forehead with a headache and said.

"How much more do you need to build?" Li Lixian looked at Li Lixian and asked.

"Why not, a national prince has a mansion, and the county prince and the county duke are the same, and over there in Licheng, we have 80,000 acres of land over there, and it will definitely not work if we don't build a mansion." Li Lixian said helplessly, now that the two mansions have been built, it costs a lot.

And before Qin Shandao's wedding, it must be handed over to Qin Shandao, and the remaining mansion will definitely be given to Qin Yu at that time, because Qin Yu is the biggest, and now he also has the identity of the Duke of Guo, so the remaining Duke titles of the Kingdom need to be established again, and Qin Yuan must live here, on the Mansion of the Duke of Hu, because Qin Yuan needs to inherit Qin Huaidao's Duke of Hu.
