"Your Majesty, this palace has no intention of interfering in the affairs of the court!"

"This palace is for that poor daughter, I hope she can be happy!"

Empress Eldest Sun said in a deep voice.

She glared at Li Shimin angrily, her eyes were extremely determined.

In the five years since she became empress, she has never interfered in court politics.

I haven't thought about it before, I haven't thought about it now, and there is a high probability that it won't in the future.

But is it wrong for her, as a mother, to want her daughter to be happier and happier?

"You!"

Li Shimin pointed at Empress Changsun, his eyes fluttering.

It was the first time he had seen Empress Changsun face him like this, and his eyes were so firm.

If this continues, the two parties will definitely fall out, and the relationship between the husband and wife for many years may break down at this moment.

But just let the eldest grandson empress, Li Shimin felt that it would damage the majesty of the emperor.

"Your Majesty, Queen, Rest Anger, Rest Anger!"

"The affairs of the juniors will be busy with the juniors."

"Let's talk about legislation, let's talk about legislation."

Seeing this, the eldest grandson Wuji hurriedly stood up and persuaded him.

He saw clearly the determination of Empress Changsun and understood that it was impossible to come hard.

Since he couldn't come hard, he secretly assisted and asked the eldest grandson Chong to work hard to pursue Princess Changle.

In this way, if Li Shimin cooperates with it, the opportunity between Princess Changle and Changsun Chong is also very big.

"Step aside, I'm going to take care of the government."

Li Shimin said with a straight face.

He was angry, but he couldn't help but not want to be angry with Empress Eldest Sun.

"The concubine retires!"

Empress Changsun didn't say much, and bowed and retired.

There are two left, the eldest grandson Wuji and Li Shimin, in the imperial study.

"Auxiliary, don't worry, the marriage between Changle and Changsun Chong is still valid!"

Li Shimin promised his eldest grandson Wuji.

this day.

Cui Zhentang's face was calm.

After returning to his office after the meeting, Cui Zhentang's mood was like eating.

Fang Yuan successively looked for Liu Zhenghui and Li Daozong, and was finally summoned into the palace by Li Shimin, he knew it, and he was constantly shocked.

Shocked that Fang Yuan actually persuaded Liu Zhenghui and Li Daozong, and finally caused the shock of the Manchu Dynasty's civil and military forces, and they all entered the palace to express their thoughts.

This is not the most sad place for Cui Zhentang, the saddest thing is that now it is rumored that he is addicted to copper smelting, and Fang Yuan does not despise working with him and leaving the household.

When the news spread, his reputation for many years of business was almost ruined.

After Cui Zhentang returned to the Boling Cui clan, he immediately summoned the family's steward.

"No matter how much it costs, no matter how much it costs, I will bring my reputation back!"

Cui Zhentang said in a deep voice.

The family has the apparatus to control public opinion.

By gathering intelligence, fabricating intelligence, and finally disseminating intelligence.

With the support of a strong family force, the public opinion of the five surnames and seven hopes has always been the strongest.

They want to discredit a person, or they want to make a person popular, it's just as easy as a finger.

"Using the family intelligence agency, do you want to ask the patriarch's opinion?"

The steward said.

The major affairs of the clan are controlled by the patriarch.

If you want to change public opinion on a large scale like Cui Zhentang, you usually need the consent of the patriarch.

"Now inform the patriarch that it will take five or six days to go back and forth."

"In five or six days, my reputation has been ruined, I can't wait!"

"I will repair a letter to the patriarch, and if the patriarch wants to blame, I will bear it too!"

Cui Zhentang said in a deep voice.

Now only by keeping the reputation can there be follow-up glory.

Even if the patriarch is dissatisfied, it can only temporarily overstep his authority.

"Yes."

The steward should be.

Leave with the intention of Cui Zhentang.

It didn't take long for the Bolingtri's vast intelligence agency to be operational.

"Cui Zhentang loves young girls, the reason is that he wants to have a daughter, and the reason is embarrassing."

"The addiction to copper refining is nothing, and the wicked are slandered because of jealousy, it turns out that Fang Yuan Fang Shilang is that kind of person"

"Shock! The truth of Cui Zhentang's copper refining is to raise a homeless girl, which is really admirable, and the person who spreads rumors has a sinister heart."

News is spreading.

There are storytellers, and there are also some scholars.

Tea houses, restaurants and other places with many people, there are people talking about it.

The wind suddenly changed direction, and people began to wonder the truth.

Is there someone who is jealous of Cui Zhentang's promotion to the Ministry of Household Shangshu spreading rumors and slander?

Or is Cui Zhentang really addicted to copper smelting?

Under the strong public opinion of the Boling Cui clan, Cui Zhentang's image has changed dramatically.

This kind of change Fang Yuan soon learned that Cui Zhentang's whitewashing was probably unexpected, and he felt that it was all the title party, which was very eye-catching.

"Master, are we going to fight back?"

The red lady asked.

"How is the White Tiger Club now?"

Fang Yuan asked.

Last month, the White Tiger Club opened a branch in Chang'an City.

Among them, Lu Chuchu, the town store Oiran, also followed.

As the Oiran of the White Tiger Club, Lu Chuchu is also very beautiful in Chang'an City.

With Fang Yuan's secret support, the Qinglou in Chang'an City, where the White Tiger Club is located, is now also quite famous.

But considering that Du Miaoyan was pregnant, Fang Yuan had never been to the White Tiger Club once, and he did not let Lu Chuchu come to Fang Mansion.

"It's going well."

"It's just that Lu Chuchu always wants to see you."

Hongxu and Qingyu glanced at each other and said with a pout.

Now that the master is not what it used to be, Lu Chuchu can no longer be like before.

Once an Oiran appeared in Fang Mansion, Fang Yuan's reputation might be tarnished the next day.

"Tell her that the time has not yet come, let her use the intelligence agency to publicize the truth about Cui Zhentang's copper smelting."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

His intelligence agency was initially in charge of Lu Xia and Lu Chuchu.

But Lu Xia is now arranged to deal with the affairs of Huaxia Qianzhuang, and the intelligence agency is now in charge of Lu Chuchu.

However, Lu Chuchu is not alone, Mo Cailing became one of the heads of Fang Yuan's intelligence agency when the White Tiger Club was opened in Chang'an City.

"Yes."

Hongxu and Qingyi left.

Soon, starting from the White Tiger Club, the matter of Cui Zhentang's copper smelting was leaked out.

The White Tiger Club is a merry place, and the amorous words are naturally amorous things, so there are more people who believe in it.

In addition, the information that Princess Gaomi gave to Fang Yuan was true, Fang Yuan had specially investigated, and there was clear evidence that Cui Zhentang was smelting copper.

In addition to the fact that there is no legal sanction for copper smelting, Cui Zhentang's copper smelting has actually been confirmed in the hearts of many people, but it has not caused much fluctuation.

After all, the intelligence agency of the Bolingcui clan is really powerful.

A few days passed, and Fang Yuan didn't go to the household department.

Choi also used his family's intelligence agency to reverse public opinion.

At the same time, he also found that most of the people who believed in his copper smelting had been to the White Tiger Club.

Cui Zhentang is naturally no stranger to the White Tiger Club, which Fang Yuan opened in Liaozhou.

So, Cui Zhentang gave Cui Yuanting an order and asked Cui Yuanting to take the Chang'an officials to seal up the White Tiger Club.

Immediately, Cui Yuanting staggered Zheng Jiu and the others, selected some trustworthy ones to go to the White Tiger Club, and immediately sealed them up.

Seeing that Cui Yuanting and others had already come to the door of the White Tiger Club, they were about to seal the White Tiger Club.

A team dressed in linen and filial piety appeared on the street and walked towards Cui Yuanting and others.

This team also held banners, and Cui Yuanting's scalp was numb.

The people on both sides looked at it and retreated one after another, and they were also shocked.

[Cui Zhentang can't die well, and his addiction to copper smelting killed my eight-year-old daughter! ] 】

[Cui Zhentang is extremely perverted, copper smelting caused my six-year-old daughter to suffer from brain disease, and asked Chang'an County to make the decision for us. 】

[Where is the heavenly principle, where is the law, how can Cui Zhentang, who smelted copper and harmed our seven daughters, be promoted to the head of the household?! 】

On the white banner, the blood-colored words were shocking, and everyone who saw it was shocked.

But what shocked people was not the words on it, but how could these ordinary people dare to do this?

"Slander the important ministers of the court, and take them down for this official!"

Cui Yuanting immediately made a decision.

With a cold face, he ordered the officials to take them down and control the impact to a minimum.

As long as these people are controlled, then these things can be said to be false regardless of whether they are true or not, and it can be said that someone did it on purpose.

"Take it!"

The officials moved quickly.

The fierce gods rushed towards the team.

What's more, they directly draw knives and intimidate.

The procession instantly became chaotic and looked at the officials in horror.

They are all family members of the victims, and they are all afraid of Cui Zhentang's authority and dare not report to the official or make trouble.

But someone found them, gave them a lot of money, and after being guaranteed safety, they began to march according to the plan.

"It's a pity, they're doomed to no result."

"I admire that you dare to go against the Boling Cui clan."

"Cui Zhentang should have been smelting copper for a while, why are they making trouble now?"

At the door of the White Tiger Club, everyone was talking.

For the people who marched felt admiration and pity, as well as puzzlement.

The money that can be spent in the White Tiger Club is a little money, and coupled with the lobbying of the girls in the White Tiger Club, most people here feel that Cui Zhentang is really addicted to copper smelting.

In the White Tiger Club, Lu Chuchu stood at the window on the third floor and looked at everything below, his brows furrowed.

The officials rushed to the front of the people, and in the distance a uniformly dressed team appeared - the security team.

"Cui County Order, what's going on?"

"The people have grievances and don't think about how to solve them, so they want to take them down?"

Fang Yuan appeared from behind the security team and sneered.

With the presence of the security team, the officials stopped sprinting.

And after Cui Yuanting heard Fang Yuan's voice, his face changed.

"Fang Shilang?!"

Many people exclaimed.

Everyone knows that Cui Zhentang's addiction to copper refining was caused by Fang Yuan.

Now, on the streets of Chang'an City, there are seven or eight families holding banners to make trouble, presumably also Fang Yuan's handiwork.

"Fang Shilang, these Diao people insulted the important ministers of the court on the street, and the lower officials took them down according to law, and brought them back for trial, is there any problem?"

Cui Yuanting said in a deep voice.

Because of Fang Yuan, now the Boling Cui clan is very passive.

Although it did not hurt the Bolingtri clan much, it caused a lot of trouble.

"If you insult an important minister of the court, you should naturally be judged."

"But the subordinates commanded by Cui County Order seem to be going to kill people, is it appropriate?"

"They are all my people of the Tang Dynasty, and they have grievances, not foreign enemies."

Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.

He couldn't help but admire Cui Yuanting's reason.

It is not to make trouble in the street, nor to slander the important ministers of the court, but to insult.

As long as it was the first two reasons, Fang Yuan could not take people away from Cui Yuanting, but the last reason could.

"They are arrogant, and the lower officials go back to punish them heavily."

"But can these Diao people be brought back by the lower officials?"

Cui Yuanting said in a deep voice.

He didn't want to stay here for too long.

Because there has been a lot of commotion.

The longer the time is delayed, the more people will know, and the harder it will be to calm down.

Moreover, Fang Yuan obviously came prepared, and he couldn't stay too long.

"What's the hurry, the official has something to ask them."

Fang Yuan shook his head and said.

He had gone to great lengths to bring these people in.

How could Cui Yuanting take them away so quickly?

"Fang Shilang, Linghu Shilang, has no right to interrogate!"

Cui Yuanting's face changed, he took a step forward, and said in a deep voice.

If these people were interrogated by Fang Yuan, how could Cui Zhentang's reputation still be preserved?

"This official is just a routine question."

"Could it be that there is something disgraceful in the Cui County Order that does not allow this official to ask?"

Fang Yuan raised his eyebrows and said with a smile.

Everyone at the scene listened, their faces changed, and their eyes were full of anticipation.

Lu Chuchu walked out of the White Tiger Club, looking at Fang Yuan with sparkling eyes.

"Routine inquiries won't do either!"

"This is the power of the lower officials, not the rights of the household officials!"

Cui Yuanting said in a deep voice.

This face must not be given to Fang Yuan.

At the same time, Cui Yuanting secretly made a look and asked people to move the rescue soldiers.

Fang Yuan brought a little more people than his, and it was not good to have a hard fight with Fang Yuan.

"This official is a household servant, what's wrong with asking?"

"A few fathers and fellow villagers, are these banners of yours real or fake?"

"After thinking about it, I will answer again, slandering the important ministers of the court is a big crime, and it will be imprisoned."

Fang Yuan snorted coldly.

He then looked back at the frightened victim's family.

Looking at their appearance, Fang Yuan sighed in his heart, and spoke so loudly.

"Yes, it's true!"

"My daughter was harmed by Cui Zhentang's brute!"

"I saw him with my own eyes that day, and he passed by my farm with his slaves and took my eight-year-old daughter away."

"When I saw my daughter again, she was a corpse with a lot of bruises, there, there."

A middle-aged man stood up and spoke.

Speaking of the depths, tears fell, and his family members cried even more.

"Fang Shilang, you have exceeded your authority!"

Cui Yuanting's face was ugly, and he ordered the officials to force their actions.

The officials looked at each other and slowly approached in the direction of Fang Yuan.

But in front of them was blocked by a security team armed with firearms, and there was no longer the arrogance just now.

"Is there a witness?!"

Fang Yuan ignored Cui Yuanting and said coldly.

"Yes, yes, many people in our village have seen it."

The middle-aged man said with a cry.

"I have a witness, too!"

"I also saw that it was the house slave of the Bolingcui clan!"

"Look at my daughter, look at my daughter, she's so small, she's so small!"

The other victims' families wept.

But except for the family of the first victim, the rest are just domestic slaves who saw the Bolingcui clan.

In the end, two little girls were pushed out, but they were disheveled, and the whole person looked like he had experienced a great shock, and his arms and body were blackened in many places.

Everyone at the scene watched and was in an uproar, all secretly scolding Cui Zhentang for being an animal.

At this time, a large group of people arrived not far away, wearing the house slave clothes of the Boling Cui clan.
