Li Qinzai sat in the courtyard all night, waiting for this result.

He knew that at this morning's court meeting, Shangguan Tingzhi would definitely do something, and it must be a big move.

The results came out, and they really shocked the government and the opposition.

The court meeting has not yet dispersed, and the news has left the palace.

Ordinary people may not understand, but it is just that the upper and lower officials are involved in the impeachment of the powerful family and enclosure, and the consequences are so serious?

Only those who have been in the court understand how serious the consequences of Shangguan Tingzhi's performance are.

The royal family, the magnates, and the family enclosure have started since the end of Zhenguan, but before that, this kind of enclosure was carried out in secret, and everyone was in the circle, but no one was silent.

Does anyone in the court know?

Of course, some people know, and even Li Zhi knows it in his heart, which is one of the reasons why he is bent on weakening the family's gate valve.

From the Son of Heaven to the courtiers, to the local officials and the gentry of the world, everyone knows it in their hearts, but no one has ever spoken out in the court.

Once he speaks, it is tantamount to blatantly breaking the unspoken rules of convention, and rudely tearing off this fig leaf in front of the Son of Heaven and the courtiers.

Don't talk about it, hello and me, everyone makes a fortune quietly, Li Zhi can continue to endure it, whether it is a slow picture, or a temporary compromise, the emperor's plan will not be known to others.

When the matter is said, especially at the Golden Palace court meeting, then it is impossible for Li Zhi and the courtiers to ignore it anymore, even if the people in the Golden Palace cough, they will be rumored to be out of the palace, and the whole world knows about it, not to mention the bombshell dropped by Shangguan Tingzhi.

Before Shangguan Tingzhi Shangshu said that there were officials and magnates in Huainan in Jiangnan who encroached on good land, but he did not name and did not have a surname, even if the people involved held a grudge in their hearts, they would not actually do anything to him, at most they would mobilize forces to degrade him for thousands of miles to solve the problem of the person who raised the problem.

But today, Shangguan Tingzhi has openly named names, and the list of officials and families involved has appeared in the court, appearing in the sight of the Son of Heaven and the courtiers.

Regardless of whether Li Zhi investigates it or not, the fact is that Shangguan Tingzhi's performance today has overturned the hornet's nest.

From today onwards, there will probably be hundreds of thousands of people in the world who want to go to the head of Guan Tingzhi.

Because Shangguan Tingzhi has really touched the interests of the entire Tang elite class, and it is the core interest.

That's right, in ancient agrarian societies, land was the core interest of the powerful, and there was no one.

Blocking people's money, such as killing parents, is not shared.

After listening to Steward Wu's report, Li Qinzai still sat in the courtyard and didn't squeak for a long time.

After a long time, Li Qinzai sighed and said with a wry smile: "Sure enough, I have come to this point, this thing is iron-hearted and has no intention of leaving a way for himself to live......"

Steward Wu looked at Li Qinzai's expression and cautiously probed: "Fifth Young Lang, the affairs of the Shangguan family, our Li family ......"

Li Qinzai closed his eyes, then opened them, and said: "Order Feng Su to lead a hundred subordinates to Shangguan's house immediately, bring his Shangguan Kun'er and Shangguan Wan'er to our house, and then close the door to thank the guests." ”

Although Steward Wu is a housekeeper, he has been familiar with court affairs for many years, and said hesitantly: "Fifth Shaolang, the Shangguan family will have a catastrophe today, if our Li family is involved......

Li Qinzai shook his head and said decisively: "Shangguan Kun'er is my disciple, Shangguan Wan'er is my future daughter-in-law, I don't care what the Shangguan family is, but my Li Qinzai's disciples and daughters-in-law must be protected, if anyone is not convinced, just come and reason with me." ”

Seeing that Steward Wu still wanted to persuade him again, Li Qinzai became impatient and shouted, "Go quickly!" ”

Steward Wu was stunned and hurriedly turned around and left.

Not long after leaving, Steward Wu hurried over again and said hurriedly: "Fifth Shaolang, Shangguan Yi led Shangguan Kun'er and Shangguan Wan'er to ask to see each other outside the mansion gate." ”

Li Qinzai was stunned for a moment, hurriedly got up and walked quickly towards the front yard.

The side door opened, Shangguan Yi was wearing a green robe, holding a baby in one hand, and the three grandparents were standing outside the door in despair.

Li Qinzai stepped out of the door and saluted to Shangguan Yichang: "The kid meets Grandpa Shangguan." ”

Shangguan Yi showed a look of relief and said with a wry smile: "To be honest, at such a juncture, Li Jungong is still willing to come out to see the old man, and the old man is very surprised......"

Li Qinzai said with a smile: "We haven't talked about the marriage between the two families yet, it's better to pick the day than to hit the day, why don't we settle the family matter today?" ”

Shangguan Yi's cloudy old eyes showed disbelief: "Li Jungong is still willing to marry the Shangguan family?" ”

Li Qinzai blinked: "When the wind and waves were calm before, maybe I still have to think about it, observe and observe, but today's wind and waves are turbulent, I don't want to think so much, let's decide today, but it's still the same sentence, Wan'er promised my buckwheat, I don't know if Grandpa Shangguan is willing?" ”

Shangguan Yi looked at Li Qinzai fixedly, and old tears slowly flowed down.

He knew very well why the two families were so important, and Li Qinzai hastily decided outside the mansion before he invited him in.

Because today is a catastrophe for the Shangguan family, Li Qinzai protects Shangguan Kun'er, because he is Li Qinzai's disciple, but if he wants to protect Shangguan Wan'er at the same time, then Shangguan Wan'er must have a legitimate identity, so that the Li family can be famous and protect her.

This is also the reason why Li Qinzai simply decided this family matter outside the door.

The catastrophe is ahead, time is urgent, and there is no room for so much boring nonsense.

Shangguan Yi was in tears, but Li Qinzai was smiling.

Shangguan Kun'er and Shangguan Wan'er were infected by the seemingly relaxed but actually solemn and tense atmosphere between the two, and the two little ones stood beside Shangguan Yi obediently, not daring to say a word.

"Grandpa Shangguan, decide quickly, to be honest, my buckwheat is deeply admired by women, and I like his female babies of the same age to line up from Chang'an City to Luoyang City."

Shangguan Yi raised his sleeve to wipe away his old tears, and sighed with red eyes: "When I was in a desperate situation, I didn't expect that Li Jungong was still willing to lend a hand...... If the Shangguan family is fortunate not to be wiped out, they will remember today's great grace! ”

"Kun'er, Wan'er, bow down to Mr. Li!" Shangguan Yi shouted in a deep voice.

Without hesitation, the two babies knelt down to Li Qinzai on their knees and bowed their heads sincerely.

Li Qinzai did not shirk this time and accepted their great gift calmly.

The two babies got up after saluting, and when they raised their heads, they were already in tears.

Although they were ignorant and didn't know what was going on, they knew that there must be a life and death parting between their relatives waiting for them.

Li Qinzai nodded, and said in a deep voice: "Kun'er, Wan'er, you enter the door, from now on, if you don't have me to speak, you are forbidden to go out of the house for half a step!" ”

Kun'er Wan'er looked at Shangguan Yi in a panic.

Shangguan Yi burst into tears, but shouted with tears in his eyes: "Mr. Li will be your father from now on, your husband, and his words are your father's words, do you hear clearly?" ”

Kun'er Wan'er said loudly with a crying voice: "Grandpa, grandson heard clearly!" ”

Shangguan Yi pointed to the door of the mansion and said, "Go in!" If there is no Mr. Li, it is forbidden to walk out of this door for half a step! ”

The brother and sister held small hands, entered the door while crying, and then leaned against the door frame, looking at Shangguan Yi reluctantly.

"Grandpa, grandpa, what's wrong? Don't you want us? ”

Shangguan Yi said sharply: "Go in, don't ask!" ”

The rare stern expression startled the siblings, and they went into the front yard crying.

Seeing that the two of them finally entered the front yard, Shangguan Yi's stern expression suddenly collapsed, and old tears suddenly welled up again, so fragile that it made people feel distressed.

An old man, facing the imminent collapse of his family and the life and death of his children and grandchildren, it is difficult for others to imagine what a heavy blow it was to him.

Li Qinzai stood in front of him, sighed heavily, and said, "Grandpa Shangguan is relieved, the situation may not be so serious......

Shangguan Yi shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Li Jungong doesn't need to comfort the old man, before Tingzhi wrote the note in the study last night, he had already told the old man about his interests, and the old man nodded at the court meeting this morning. ”

Saying that, Shangguan Yi smiled self-deprecatingly and said, "Incredible, right? The old man has been up and down in the court and the sea all his life, and others say that the old man is an old fox in the officialdom, and he has been played by the old man to the fullest, and he has never suffered a big loss in his life. ”

"But the eldest son of the old man is a straightforward gentleman, full of justice to support the world, isn't it ridiculous? Ha ha! ”

After Shangguan Yi laughed a few times, he suddenly showed a cold look and said loudly: "However, the old man is still proud of Tingzhi, and the Shangguan family is also proud of Tingzhi. ”

"If there is a son like this, the luck of Sheji, the luck of the Shangguan family, even if the family is gone, the name of Tingzhi is enough to shine in the high temple of the ancestral hall, worthy of the ancestors of Shangguan!"

looked sad and dressed in despair, but Shangguan Yi still dusted off his robe, straightened his chest and said proudly: "Okay, the old man should go to Taiji Palace and share this tribulation with my son!" ”
