Chapter 317: Opening

Hearing Xu Jingzong's words, Rao is Wu Zetian was also a little stunned.

The people of the family value the love of in-law the most, and Cui Xiuye's move can be said to break with the entire Cui family.

Does he really have the guts? Have the courage to do this?

"Niangniang, I don't think Cui Xiuye's words are false, everyone in Chang'an knows the relationship between Cui Shouye and Cui Xiuye, and it is reasonable for him to take risks for his brother."

Xu Jingzong lowered his head and said his opinion.

"Then why don't you go and inform Your Majesty about this matter, remember, we are always Your Majesty's people, as long as Cui Xiuye thinks of our good, understand?"

"Xu Jingzong understands."

Xu Jingzong saluted slightly and hurriedly retreated.

"Your Majesty, the Duke of Gaoyang asks to see you."

Ryan walked into the imperial study and slowly rushed to Li Zhidao.

"Let him in."

Li Zhi patted himself on the shoulder, although he had already handed over many pieces to Wu Zetian, but those important ones still had to be reviewed by him personally.

"The minister Xu Jingzong pays a visit to Your Majesty."

"Long live my emperor, long live, long live."

Xu Jingzong slammed his head on the ground when he entered the door.

"Let's be flat."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Xu Jingzong got up and looked at Li Zhi, his eyes full of excitement.

"Look at you like this, have I done what I told you?"

"Your Majesty, something has changed."

Xu Jingzong hurriedly told Cui Xiuye's situation.

"This, really?"

Li Zhi was stunned, he only wanted to take the opportunity to knock on the family, but he didn't expect to be able to make such a good thing.

What is this?

Could it be that this Li Yanran is really her own lucky star?

"It should be true, Cui Xiuye categorically did not dare to deceive His Majesty."

Xu Jingzong nodded, even if Cui Xiuye had the courage, he shouldn't dare to joke with the emperor.

"But this matter has come out, if you don't punish Cui Xiuye, you can't say it, what do you think?"

Li Zhi went around in his mind and looked at Xu Jingzong again.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that Cui Shouye's capital crime can be avoided but the living crime is inescapable, so he can be deposed to the place, and then Cui Xiuye will be promoted to the squire of the Criminal Department.

In this way, it not only knocks the family, but also promotes our people up, the best of both worlds. ”

Xu Jingzong smiled slightly, the other party just said that he wanted to keep Cui Shouye's life, but he didn't say that he wanted to be acquitted.

It couldn't be easier.

"Well, just do as you say, and those bandits must also be dealt with together, so you can't chill Princess Lishan's heart."

"The minister retired."

Xu Jingzong left directly, and after returning to his mansion, he told Cui Xiuye the result of his discussion with Li Zhi.

"Thank you to the Gaoyang County Princess, and in order to express my gratitude, I hope that the Gaoyang County Princess's gift will receive the cultivation of the profession."

Cui Xiuye waved his hand, and the subordinate walked in with a box.

"Virtuous nephew, I will be my own person in the future, so I don't deserve it."

While speaking, Xu Jingzong gave Xu Wei a look, and the other party hurriedly sent someone to carry the box down.

"So I quit my studies."

"I'll send my nephew."

At the court meeting the next day, Xu Jingzong told Cui Shouye about his collusion with bandits, and Li Zhi also took the opportunity to order Cui Shouye to be deposed.

Seeing this situation, the family also made suggestions to let Cui Xiuye succeed to the position of the waiter of the Criminal Department, and Li Zhi also smiled slightly when he saw this, and took advantage of the situation to help Cui Xiuye to the position of the waiter of the Criminal Department.

"Shouye, it's a long way to Xuzhou, so you must ensure your health."

Cui Xiuye looked at the brother in front of him, his eyes were full of tears.

"Brother, it's not worth it for me."

Cui Shouye also knew how Cui Xiuye saved his life, and he was also very grateful to his eldest brother for this trip.

After all, the eldest brother actually wanted to break with the Cui family for his own sake, and he would have no face to see his father after a hundred years.

"Don't think about it, when you have the opportunity, the eldest brother will definitely find a way to transfer you back to Beijing, let's go."

"Big brother, take care."

Cui Shouye wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, stepped into the carriage and ran towards Xuzhou.

"Brother Li, Brother Li, have you heard, those bandits turned out to be instigated by the Cui family, and now Cui Shouye, the servant of the Criminal Department, has been demoted to Xuzhou, and all the bandits have been beheaded."

Eldest Sun Yan ran to Li Yanran with the news he had just gotten, his eyes full of resentment.

"I see."

Li Yanran had no joy or sorrow, and she didn't pay attention to Changsun Yan's stubble at all.

"Brother Li, why aren't you angry? Such a thief should be beheaded, and it would be cheaper to dethrone him. ”

Seeing Li Yanran's appearance, Changsun Yan couldn't help but be stunned.

Aren't you the most eager to repay? Why is it so calm now.

"I said a long time ago that if you are not in his position, you will not seek his own government, and my father must have his considerations in doing this, so we just need to do things with peace of mind.

As for who is behind you, it doesn't matter. ”

Li Yanran glanced at the eldest grandson Yan.

I wanted Daddy to kill them all, but that was just wishful thinking.

It's not easy for my dad to be the emperor, I can't share his worries and solve problems, and I can't make trouble.

After speaking, he slapped Li Hong on the head.

"Sister, why are you beating me?"

Li Hong, who was eating sugar gourd, looked confused, you just talk when you speak, what does it mean to suddenly give yourself.

I'm eating sugar gourd next to you?

"It's okay, your hands are itchy, you keep eating."

Li Yanran glanced at Li Hong, do you still have a reason to beat you?

"Me"

Glancing at Li Yanran, Li Hong walked towards the door with a twist of his buttocks.

I can't mess with you, I can hide.

As long as you can't see me, I probably won't get beaten.

"Brother Li, if it's okay, I'll leave too."

When Changsun Yan saw this situation, he was about to slip away when he was anointed with oil on the soles of his feet.

Brother Li's temper has become more and more irritable since he became a princess.

It's okay, let's hide a little.

"Wait."

"What's wrong?"

The eldest grandson Yan turned his head and looked at Li Yanran, not knowing what she wanted to do.

"It's been a while since the Dragon Gate Dart Bureau was established, and no one wants to deliver the goods yet?"

Now that the matter of the fiefdom has come to an end, Li Yanran remembered her plan to do logistics some time ago.

"Don't you say I forgot, some time ago, there were a few merchants who found the Longmen Dart Bureau and wanted to take the goods, but I forgot about it."

Hearing the Longmen Dart Bureau, Changsun Yan also patted his head and told him what had happened before.

"Forgot? Can you forget anything? Don't hurry up and contact the merchant. ”

"Oooh."

The eldest grandson Yan shrunk his neck, and ran away.

In the afternoon, Changsun Yan ran back quickly, his eyes full of excitement.

"Brother Li, Brother Li, it's done, a total of nine merchants want to take the goods, about forty carts, the distance is not far, just go to Wugong."

"Cheng Chubi, Cheng Chubi, quickly bring the map."

Hearing that the business came to the door, Li Yanran was also excited, and directly called Cheng Zhibi to come over with the map.

Cheng Chubi came over with a bundle of maps, of course, these are not military maps, just civilian maps, which are not confidential.

"Wugong is only one hundred and fifty or sixty miles away from us, but this road is not easy to walk."

Cheng Chubi spread out the map and marked the location, but his brows were tightly furrowed.

"How?"

Li Yanran glanced at Cheng Chubi, the distance of more than 100 miles was only an hour's drive in her impression, what could be the problem.

"Although Wugong is located in Gyeonggi, it is already close to Qizhou, although the imperial court has cleared it many times, but there are a lot of bandits along the way, no wonder those businessmen want to find the Longmen Dart Bureau to escort them."

Although the country is peaceful now, there are many people who are forced to fall into the grass by life.

This is also the reason why the government has suppressed bandits many times, but the bandits have not been suppressed.

I can't tell what will happen to this journey.

"What did I think?"

Hearing that Cheng Chubi was worried about banditry, Li Yanran was also relieved.

"Eldest Sun Yan, how much freight do they pay for this cargo transportation?"

Li Yanran glanced at Changsun Yan again and asked about the price this time.

"They are willing to pay half of the freight in advance for a big car, and they pay a total of 20 yuan for 40 big cars, and wait until the goods are delivered and pay the remaining 20 yuan in advance."

"It's only forty dollars in total? Brother Li, don't do this deal. ”

Hearing that there was only such a small amount of money, Wei Chihuan on the side couldn't help but glance at Changsun Yan.

That's not enough money to make your own tooth sacrifice.

Is this stupid? It's clear that the loss-making business is worth making, so why do you have to do it.

"It's different, Brother Li, those businessmen said okay, this is just the first batch.

If we can deliver the goods safely, they will take care of all the goods they send in the future.

Besides, as long as we make a reputation, when there are more people who ship the goods, the profit will be difficult to calculate. ”

Hearing Yu Chihuan's words, Changsun Yan was not happy.

Lao Tzu, this is called casting a long line to catch a big fish, you know a fart.

Willing to do it, do you know?

"Brother Li, instead of wasting that energy to make money-losing trades, it's better to build more houses to make money quickly."

Cheng Chubi also pouted, let your eldest grandson Yan say that the sky is falling, he also thinks that this matter is not a big deal.

"Changsun Yan has done a good job, this deal is done."

Li Yanran glanced at the two of them, made a decision directly, and settled the deal.

"Brother Li, the eldest grandson Yan is crazy, why are you stupid with you."

Cheng Chubi was stunned, not knowing what happened to Li Yanran, who has always been shrewd, this time.

"What I read is that after you know a fart, Changsun Yan will immediately go and make an agreement with those merchants to let them send the goods to the Lishan fiefdom."

"Okay."

The eldest grandson Yan gave Cheng Chubi a contemptuous look at the two fools, patted his ass and ran away.

"I know what you have to say, but I have so many people here, if I don't find them something to do, you will be responsible for the expenses?"

Li Yanran glanced at the two who wanted to speak and stopped, and shouted directly at them.

"That's naturally not good, Brother Li, why should your people let us be responsible."

Seeing that Li Yanran had put the idea in her pocket again, Cheng Chubi and Wei Chihuan couldn't help but shudder.

"Then shut up for me, now let's discuss how many people we should send this time, understand?"
