Chapter Seventy-Eight: Li Yuanjing's Situation
"Lord Wang!" Gao Jun stepped forward and said, "Since you have checked everything, the things we have purchased are ordinary specialties, why do you want to detain our caravan!" ”
"This king said that he would be detained, but he could not help you!" Li Yuanjing said a little domineeringly, he was very annoyed that he didn't expect the gain, that is to say, his 300,000 yuan of money was inexplicably gone, maybe if he detained this caravan now, no matter how bad it was, he could recover a little loss, if it wasn't really for this group of people, then the real murderer would have fled a long time ago.
"Lord Wang, with all due respect, this is Chang'an City, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, even if you are the prince, you can't flout the law so much and abuse your private power!" Gao Jun arched his hand and said.
"You!" Li Yuanjing pointed at Gao Jun and was speechless, he was a dignified prince, but he was pointed at his nose and preached by a Shengdou Xiaomin, how could he save face.
"You are guilty of the following crimes, come here, arrest him for this king, and detain the entire caravan!" Li Yuanjing shouted.
"Yes!" The five or six guards behind Li Yuanjing responded together, and the two walked to Gao Jun's side and held Gao Jun's arm.
"Lord Wang, Xiaomin has a reason to go all over the world, even if this matter is reported to His Majesty today, Xiaomin is not afraid, but I am afraid that the life of the prince will not be easy." Gao Jun struggled and said.
"Joke, just by you, you can also see Your Majesty? It's a dream. Li Yuanjing sneered: "Take them all back to King Jing's Mansion!" ”
Even if there is no 300,000 guan, the goods carried by this caravan can be estimated to be 20,000 or 30,000 guan, although it is a drop in the bucket, but it is good to be able to stabilize the hearts of the people in Jingzhou.
This action of the Hou Mansion not only snatched back the money that Li Yuanjing had sold Xuanwu Hug, but also packed and took away the profits of Jubaolou in Chang'an for a year, which Li Yuanjing relied on all this year.
Li Yuanjing now has no money in his hands, so he has to take a risk and seize Gao Jun's caravan, he can get some of it, and then talk about solving the urgent need first, not to mention, this caravan is the most suspicious, they first went to Xiangzhou, and then transferred to Dengzhou, which also blames Li Yuanjing to suspect them, and Li Yuanjing is not convicting them now, but using the excuse of suspicion, to seize them first, and wait until the rumor passes, maybe the goods on Gao Jun's hand can stay in Jingwangfu, after all, according to his Li Yuanjing's power, This little thing can still be done.
It's just that Jingzhou is over there, and it seems that I have to send a message back to tell you.
This time he came to Chang'an, Li Yuanjing didn't expect that his things would be "robbed" on the way, originally he just wanted to be in Chang'an, and at the end of the year, the children of the clan gathered together to go through the motions, so he calmly stayed in Jingzhou, but he didn't expect that this unintentional move was really useful, and now that there is no money, the situation in Jingzhou is very easy to shake, and his own people stay in Jingzhou, which can stabilize people's hearts to the greatest extent.
But he didn't know that Xuan Shijing had already asked Gao Jun to disperse a group of people from Xiangzhou to Jingzhou to investigate his background in Jingzhou.
Xuan Shijing was right, the reason why Li Yuanjing was so reckless in accumulating money, and now he even did not hesitate to sell Xuanwu was precisely because he secretly recruited an army in Jingzhou, not only did he recruit the army himself, but also in Shandong, there was also a group of his forces, and these forces were originally under the hands of Prince Jiancheng, after the death of Prince Jiancheng, Li Yuanjing quickly used Li Yuan's help to encircle these forces for his own use.
Therefore, the cost of the two forces is not something that ordinary fiefdom income can resist, because the cost of forming an army is even more extensive, and Li Yuanjing is helpless, so he sold Xuanwu to hold this egg-laying chicken.
But who would have thought that this toss was a waste of bamboo baskets, and in the end, not only the more than 200,000 yuan obtained from the sale of Xuanwu was gone, but even the profits of the two years with Jubaolou were also lost, which made Li Yuanjing not angry.
At the end of the year, the army could not pay the money, so how could he explain to the people in the army, in case of a mutiny, then Li Yuanjing would really be finished.
As the saying goes, the embankment of a thousand miles collapses in an anthill, and without this batch of money, it is equivalent to most of Li Yuanjing's power will be shaken.
Gao Jun, along with Qian Lai and the entire caravan, were brought back to King Jing's Mansion by Li Yuanjing's guards and the soldiers guarding the city gate.
And when everyone just entered Chang'an City, this news reached the ears of the money pile.
His own father and brother were taken away by Li Yuanjing, this matter was too unexpected, Qian Dui made a decision immediately, and decided to go back to the Hou Mansion to discuss with Xuan Shijing, and now the only person who can fish out Gao Jun and his own father is his own Hou Ye.
Throwing away all the work at hand, the money pile quickly went to the backyard of Xuanwuhug, led a horse from the stable, and went straight to the Hou Mansion.
In the Dongshan Hou Mansion, Xuan Shijing was accompanying the Wang family to feed the two treasures and the three treasures in the courtyard, and he heard that the people from the mansion came to report that the money was coming.
Wang threw the barbecue in his hand into Sanbao's mouth, and said to Xuan Shijing: "At this time, the money is piled up, there must be something important, Jing'er should hurry up and go to the study to see him." ”
Xuan Shijing nodded and said, "Okay, the child won't accompany his mother first." ”
Wang waved his hand and motioned for Xuan Shijing to leave.
Xuan Shijing followed the people in the mansion and left the back garden together, walked into the courtyard, and happened to see the money piled up in the hall pacing back and forth.
"What's wrong? Looking at you like this, it seems that you are a little anxious, something is wrong. Xuan Shijing walked into the hall, sat down and asked.
"Master Hou." Qian Dui arched his hand: "Gao Jun came back today, and was stopped by Li Yuanjing, the king of Jing, at the gate of Chang'an City." ”
"Isn't that what was planned? How? What's wrong? As soon as Xuan Shijing heard that it was Gao Jun's matter, and seeing that the money pile was so nervous, he guessed that something must have happened.
"Then Li Yuanjing led people to rummage through the caravan's goods outside the city gate, and no money was found, but he detained Gao Jun and the entire caravan, and his father also came to Chang'an with Gao Jun's caravan." Qian Dui said.
"What? Li Yuanjing detained our caravan? Xuan Shijing stood up suddenly, and his voice suddenly increased.
Qian Dui nodded, and then said hurriedly: "Master Hou, now we have to find a way to protect my father and Gao Jun together with the entire caravan as soon as possible." ”
"Hmm." Xuan Shijing responded, and then said, "Let me think about it." (To be continued.) )
