Things are solved one by one, and the lives destroyed by others cannot be passed by wasting a few legs.

The entire Shangguan family can almost be said to be broken, Shangguan's father and son are still on the way to exile, the little brother and sister are living in someone else's house, and the three generations of the family that were so happy at the beginning have been shattered, and only women and children are left in the house.

Li Qinzai has always kept this matter in his heart, Shangguan Kun'er is his disciple, and he must help his disciple solve this trouble completely.

Today's opportunity came, and it was delivered to the door.

When Li Qinzai realized that he had enough chips in his hand, he was not polite to speak.

Is gifting enough? Is it enough to make amends?

It's not enough.

Even if those principals were killed and hung on the flagpole, it was still not enough for Li Qinzai, what he wanted was to solve the problem, not just to vent his evil anger.

Shangguan's father and son were released and returned to Beijing, which is called the real solution to the problem.

This is the way adults think about problems, grasping the root cause of the problem and solving it, and getting angry and taking revenge is only secondary.

In the front hall of the Guogong Mansion, the faces of the eight heads of the family were green.

Today, I came to the door to make amends, I thought it was very simple, apologize in person, and then give a heavy gift, praise each other a few words during the banquet, turn the war into a jade silk, and this matter will be over.

But they didn't expect that this Li Jungong was not so easy to dismiss, and he took the initiative to send it to the door, so he was even more unkind.

Now they also understand one thing, Li Qinzai's idea is to solve this matter from beginning to end, from the cause of the matter to the end, everything that has been destroyed by the Eight Great Clans and changed will be restored to its original state.

The heads of the Wang clan recognized it, people came to Chang'an, and the crisis of the wang clan was ahead, and they were the same as Li Qinzai, with the aim of solving the problem.

Shangguan Kun'er had tears in her eyes and kowtowed heavily to Li Qinzai.

He knew very well that the Shangguan family had been rescued, and his grandfather and father were about to return to Chang'an, all of which were the favors of Mr. Li, not the heads of the prominent families in front of him.

Mr. Li is the real benefactor of the Shangguan family.

After kowtowing, Shangguan Kun'er turned her head to look at Shangguan Wan'er, and said in a choked voice: "Wan'er, what are you still doing in a daze, quickly bow down and bow to your benefactor!" ”

Shangguan Wan'er was still young, and she was still a little ignorant of what had just happened, but she still obediently knelt down.

Before his knees touched the ground, Li Qinzai picked her up with one hand and said with a smile: "What are you kneeling, sooner or later you will be a family in the future, you eat obediently, study hard, and become the first talented woman in the Tang Dynasty when you grow up, okay?" ”

I don't understand what the "first talented girl" is, whether it is delicious or not, but Shangguan Wan'er still nodded obediently: "Okay!" ”

After kneeling down to worship Li Qinzai, Shangguan Kun'er got up, and then bowed to the heads of the Wang clan, with a faint expression.

"Thank you, elders."

The practice of double standards before and after made the heads of the family more and more dissatisfied, but they could only smile and be humble.

Li Qinzai proposed to let Shangguan's father and son release their crimes and return to Beijing because this proposal was useless for others in the court, including Li Qinzai.

Only when the Eight Great Families proposed to let Shangguan's father and son return to Beijing, no one in the court would stop them.

The bell must also be tied to the bell person, and the matter starts from the wang clan, and can only end through the hands of the wang clan.

Until this moment, Li Qinzai's smile revealed a little sincerity.

Holding the wine cup, Li Qinzai smiled and saluted everyone.

"Elders, after we finish talking, why don't you conspire to get drunk and live up to the good day. Drink to win! ”

"Drink to win!"

…………

Early the next morning.

Shangshu Province received a joint recital from the heads of the eight major families, and Shangguan Yi and Shangguan Tingzhi praised Shangguan Yi and Shangguan Tingzhi violently, and they were worried about the society, and their merits were higher than those of the government and the opposition.

In the end, with a turn of the pen, such a meritorious and good-looking talent, if he was expelled from Chang'an and exiled for thousands of miles, it would be a great loss for the Tang Dynasty, and the Son of Heaven should be reused, please forgive the sins of the Shangguan father and son, and order him to return to Beijing and serve the country.

This song undoubtedly shocked the court again, but the degree of shock was not too great.

When the heads of the Eight Great Clans entered Beijing, the well-informed courtiers vaguely understood something.

If the wang clan wants to solve the troubles that are entangled now, they must pay a heavy price, power, land, money, etc., including some aftermath matters, such as Shangguan's father and son.

Every time they were rampant, fate had already marked the price for them, and now it was time for the Eight Great Families to pay.

Shangguan Tingzhi was exiled for thousands of miles because of his participation in the impeachment of the Jiangnan Wang clan and the annexation of land, but the Jiangnan Wang clan had to take the initiative to go up and ask the Son of Heaven to recall Shangguan's father and son.

Whether it was voluntary or forced, after the heads of the Wang clan were distant, this matter was discussed by the courtiers, and everyone's faces showed a bit of absurd expressions at the same time.

Through this recital, the subjects of the government and the opposition also noticed that after the Jiangnan Wang clan was severely rectified, they finally relented and accepted the beating with a standard upright posture.

After Xu Jingzong received the music of the heads of the Wang family, he did not dare to delay for a moment, and immediately sent the music to the Taiji Palace.

Li Zhi looked at the song and showed a satisfied smile.

How good it is to solve this matter with a harmonious atmosphere, as the Son of Heaven, I like to see this kind of beautiful picture of harmony, which can show how wise and great he is as the Son of Heaven.

Without saying a word, he approved the word "can" on the song, and Li Zhi ordered the guards to leave Beijing and recall the Shangguan father and son who were on the way to exile.

Shangguan Yi has already done it, so there is no need to worry about it.

Shangguan Tingzhi was originally a member of the Zhongshu House, Li Zhi thought about it, and gave him another official position, promoted to Guanglu Doctor, and appointed as a household servant.

From a housekeeper to a waiter, the official was promoted to two levels, which can be regarded as Li Zhi's compensation for the suffering of Shangguan's father and son these days.

At this time, Shangguan's father and son had not yet walked out of the pass, and the recall of the holy decree could be pursued for a few days.

At this point, the boiling Liaodong County Prince, the contradictions and conflicts between the Shangguan family and the Jiangnan Wang clan are over.

The Eight Great Clans in Jiangnan became complete losers, losing completely, not only being almost labeled as a rebel, but also paying a heavy price.

After this incident, many fertile fields in the rich land of Jiangnan were given up and classified as the land of the imperial family, and Li Zhi also struck while the iron was hot, and ordered the officials of the prefectures and counties in Jiangnan to make a register to count the number of landless peasants, specific to people and households.

At the same time, Chang'an sent more than a dozen inspectors to supervise the local officials' distribution of the land spit out by the noble clans to the landless peasants.

Fundamentally speaking, Li Zhi's decision temporarily alleviated some of the evil consequences brought about by the annexation of land by the powerful landlords in Jiangnan, and although it could not solve the problem of land annexation at the root, it could at least be regarded as a kind of prolongation of life that cured the symptoms rather than the root cause.

After hearing Li Zhi's decision, Li Qinzai said that he was noncommittal.

Both he and Li Zhi knew very well that the land issue was both sensitive and acute, and Li Zhi's distribution of land to landless peasants could be regarded as a kind of temptation of the imperial court to local families.

This temptation was gentle, careful, and did not touch the interests of the local landowners.

Did it work?

It may be useful, but it is not much, and it is necessary to have great courage to solve the problem at the root, first change the law, and then legislate.
