Chapter 731: The Return of the Land (10)

Mingyu's father-in-law came to Li Jiancheng:

"Slave and maid, see Your Majesty!"

"Oh! Mingyu! It's back! ”

"Yes, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's meaning, the slave maid has been transmitted, King Zhao should know His Majesty's meaning, but ......" Seeing Mingyu's father-in-law's appearance of wanting to speak and stopping, Li Jiancheng's head raised:

"Mingyu, if you have anything to say, just say it!"

"Yes! Your Majesty! What the slave wants to talk about is the matter of Zhao Wangfu......"

"What? What's going on in King Zhao's mansion? In Mingyu's father-in-law's narration, Li Jiancheng finally understood what was going on. After Mingyu's father-in-law escorted Li Chengdao back to King Zhao's mansion, as soon as he entered the mansion, he saw Chen Zhen'er kneeling at the door of King Zhao's mansion. Xiao Hanyan stood next to Chen Zhen'er. Lee Seung-dao asked:

"What's going on?" Before Chen Zhen'er could speak, Xiao Hanyan immediately replied:

"Lord Wang, today's incident was all caused by Chen Zhen'er. Therefore, the concubine specially punished her to kneel here and wait for the prince to deal with it. As soon as Xiao Hanyan finished speaking, Li Chengdao's face immediately deteriorated.

"Nonsense!" Li Chengdao immediately helped Chen Zhen'er up.

"Zhen'er, it's okay!"

"Lord Wang! Zhen'er is fine! After Chen Zhen'er finished speaking, she fainted in Li Chengdao's arms.

"Zhen'er! Zhen'er! Father-in-law! I'm sorry, there is something at home, please forgive my father-in-law. ”

"Lord Wang, please." After listening to Mingyu's father-in-law's narration, Li Jiancheng said in his heart - 'Inheritance! You are still too young, usually, a man who has the ability who does not have three wives and four concubines, after becoming an emperor, these three palaces, six courts, and seventy-two concubines. There are many women, so they naturally like to compete for favor, but men are very good to every woman, or especially good to a certain woman, which is a man's taboo and an emperor's taboo. But! Chenglu is not much better! Now except for Pei Shuying's concubine, there are no other women in the house. This is not good, no matter whether he can become an emperor in the future, as a man, he has paid attention to having many sons and blessings since ancient times! Besides, you can also take a look at Chenglu's treatment of women. A few days later, Li Jiancheng issued an order to revise the history of the country with Lu Yazhi, the eight-grade school secretary of the National History Museum, which was full of errors and omissions, and there were many untruths about the establishment process of our dynasty, so he was dismissed and imprisoned. Subsequently, the sacrifices in the ritual festival were damaged and stolen. Cui He, the priest of the Ministry of Rites, was dismissed from his post and imprisoned. Originally, everyone thought that this matter was over like this, but who knows, within a few days, Cui Jiayong, the eighth superintendent of Yushitai, was imprisoned for the crime of blaspheming the monarch because of discussing this matter in private. As soon as the news came out, the Cui family and the Lu family were in chaos, and Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui He's father immediately gathered in Chang'an to discuss in the Cui family's courtyard in Chang'an.

"Brother Cui, what should I do?! Yazhi, Yong'er, and He'er are now the three of us in the Lu family and the Cui family's greatest hope, especially the three of them are still from the imperial examination. But the hope of our Lu family and Cui family to rise again in the future! Everyone else in the room nodded. The Lu family and the Cui family are no longer as brilliant as they used to be, although the Lu family and the Cui family are still holding the family shelf in terms of marriage, but the people present understand in their hearts that if a family does not have an official within two generations, then it will slowly decline, not to mention, the major families can see that Li Jiancheng is a strong monarch, and he has been continuously collecting power from major families since he ascended the throne. Going against Li Jiancheng is not good for everyone. Especially like the Lu family and the Cui family, they were already hit hard when they were in the former Sui Dynasty, and their numbers were no longer prosperous. All of you here now are side branches that survived various struggles in the former Sui and late Sui and early Tang dynasties. For the prosperity of the family, at that time, the surviving Lu family and the Cui family decided to compromise with Li Jiancheng, just when Li Jiancheng was waging war externally and carrying out the measures of awarding officials in the imperial examinationcomplained loudly in the tavern, saying that Li Jiancheng had destroyed the Jiupin Zhongzheng system and put the cart before the horse, which would sooner or later cause chaos in the world. As a result, the next day, this person was imprisoned by the people of the Qilin Secret Guard, and reported to the Criminal Department in the name of slandering the saint and sentenced him to beheading. Therefore, it is the last hope of the Lu family and the Cui family. Who knows, this kind of thing will happen again this time. Sitting in the first place is Cui Jiayong's uncle Cui Xingyuan, who is also the mind of these people.

"Everyone, don't be impatient for a while, according to what the old man saw, Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui He suffered this catastrophe this time, I'm afraid they are still to blame!" The others present were shocked when they heard Cui Xingyuan's words.

"Blame yourself? It can't be! Cui Xingyuan lowered his head and sighed.

"Come out! I can't hide this matter anymore! At this time, a person came out from behind - it was Cheng Bitingjin's wife Choi Shi.

"Uncles, the matter of the three younger brothers, in fact, they are to blame!" Mrs. Cui asked Cui Jiayong to find Cheng Yanjin, hoping that Cheng Yanjin would help the three of them tell Li Jiancheng about the performance. Those present were shocked.

"Ahh What the? How could these bastards do such a thing? ”

"Oops! What a bunch of young people! Cui Xingyuan knew in his heart that Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui He were actually killing two birds with one stone. On the one hand, the three of them were dissatisfied with the decline of their families, and on the other hand, Cheng Yanjin was ranked higher than the Cui family and the Lu family in the "Clan Chronicles" because he participated in the establishment of Li Tang. Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui He wanted to take advantage of this incident to implicate Cheng Biting Jin.

"Big niece, it's like this now! Also, I'm afraid you didn't come here today just for your cousin, right!? If there's something you want to say, just say it! Among the others present, someone suddenly looked at Mrs. Cui.

"That's not right! Does this matter have anything to do with you!? Also, why did His Majesty suddenly dislike Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong, and Cui He. They didn't report the letter, could it be you!? ...... "Mrs. Choi realized that someone was not treating her well. However, Mrs. Cui naturally has her backing. I saw Mrs. Cui take out a gold medal from her chest, and after everyone saw the gold medal, they all immediately knelt down:

"Your Excellency, please Saint Ann!" The gold medal reads - Ru I personally came to the four big characters.

"Uncles and uncles, please get up!" Cui Xingyuan bowed down and asked Mrs. Cui:

"Dare to ask the angels! I don't know what His Majesty commands. ”

"Your Majesty sent me this time, naturally there is something to ask you!? Uncles and uncles, dare to ask you, do you want to save Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui Hesan as brothers? It turned out that Li Jiancheng secretly drove to Cheng's mansion a few days ago.

"Chen Cheng bites the gold to see Your Majesty!"

"Ahh Cheng Aiqing is exempt! Also, is Madame Zun here? Cheng Yanjin heard that Li Jiancheng was looking for his wife, and his eyes were a little weird:

"Cheng Aiqing! Why don't you go yet! Find Mrs. Zun right away! ”

"Yes! Your Majesty, obey the order! Cheng Yanjin's voice was a little sad, and there was some sadness in his eyes. But I still went to find my wife. Li Jiancheng saw Cheng Yanjin's eyes and knew what Cheng Yanjin was worried about - Cheng Yanjin's wife Cui was in her teens, which was the age of an old husband and a young wife, and she was pampered ruthlessly on weekdays, and among the Li Tang nobles, many children of the royal family had secret affairs with the women of the family in Chang'an, and the children of family officials and women secretly had private relations with each other. Mrs. Cui herself is also a bit coquettish. Cheng Yanjin was afraid that his wife would have an affair with Li Jiancheng. Li Jiancheng smiled:

"Cheng Aiqing, in fact, there is nothing to do, so don't avoid it." Li Jiancheng took out a gold medal from his body. It was handed to Mrs. Cui. Mrs. Cui saw that it was a token of Ru I's presence in person.

"Your Majesty! Are you giving this gold medal to your concubine? ……”

"Mrs. Cui, I am about to take action against Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui He, but these three people are still of some use, as for how to use them, it depends on Madame."

"What, Your Majesty wants the rest of our Cui family and Lu family to move to Liaodong!?" Someone shouted out in horror - the bitter cold in Liaodong is not more fertile than the Central Plains, and the land is vast and sparsely populated, not as densely populated as the Central Plains, and the market is not as prosperous as the Central Plains. As soon as the people present heard about this, two words immediately appeared in their hearts - exile.

"Nope! No! Our Cui family and Lu family can't give up the foundation of the Central Plains and go to Liaodong to open up the wasteland for Li Jiancheng! No! ”

"Patriarch Cui, say something!" Mrs. Cui suddenly interjected:

"Uncles and uncles, don't you want to revive the glory of the Cui family and the Lu family? You must know that Li Tang is not comparable to the Northern Zhou Dynasty and the Great Sui, he was not founded by Zen, but he was a real fighter. The titles of civil and military officials in the Manchu Dynasty were all established through military merits. Moreover, in order to take power from our family, Your Majesty created measures such as martial arts and imperial examinations! Mrs. Cui said to Cui Xingyuan again:

"Uncle! You also said that now the world is different, our Cui family and Lu family do not have titles, even if it turns out, there is no eunuch in the third generation of the family, and the family will decline. His Majesty has promised that after arriving in Liaodong, if he can settle down, the grades of Lu Yazhi, Cui Jiayong and Cui He can be retained, and if the uncles and uncles can persuade people from other clans, His Majesty will also give them appropriate titles to reward them for their merits! After hearing the words that His Majesty would also bestow an appropriate title on him in return for his meritorious service, everyone present had different thoughts.
