Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

If the Cui family really did this, the problem would be even more serious, and the gap in the tax law would be widened again.

After a while, the Cui family will be nailed to the pillar of shame of the aristocratic family, just like the previous Lu family.

"Aye, what is the secret that Lu Yulin just said?"

Cui Rongrong asked anxiously again.

"This matter has nothing to do with you!"

Cui Mao once again avoided talking about it, and it must not be made public.

The Cui family acted very quickly. After Cui Tianming came back, they prepared all kinds of funds as soon as possible, and sent them to the Ministry of Civil Affairs tomorrow.

But before sending it out, they dared not make the matter public.

Not only did Cui Rongrong not understand, but Cui Tianming also looked confused when he came back to learn about this matter. His father wanted to push Cui's family into a fire pit.

early morning.

Li Yi'an went to court every day, and today finally no one targeted him, this was the first time since returning to Chang'an.

It's just that when he returned to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, he saw a convoy parked in front of the gate of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

"Dai Shangshu and Li Shilang are finally here. The head of the Cui family has been waiting for a long time."

An official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs walked up to him and said.

"Cui Mao is here?"

Li Yian asked curiously, "What is he doing here?"

The official from the Ministry of Civil Affairs said: "The one who pays the tax!"

Pay taxes?

As soon as these two words came out, Dai Zhou had a bad feeling instantly.

Not long after Lu Yulin came to pay taxes, now Cui Mao also said that he came to pay taxes.

"interesting!"

Li Yi'an also thought about this, and said: "Did Shangshu see it? It has nothing to do with me, probably because the Cui family thinks that the tax law is really good, and they can't wait to pay the tax."

Dai Zhou said, "Go ahead and have a look."

He didn't think that the family would think that the tax law was really good.

In the main hall of the Ministry of Civil Affairs, they saw Lu Yulin sitting here waiting for a long time, but fidgeting again.

"Mr. Dai, you are finally here!"

Cui Maoyang handed over a roster, and continued: "As for the new tax law, our Cui family also supports it. This is our tax list. All the money is in the car outside. You should count it first. I have to go back in advance. If If there is something missing, come to me anytime.”

He didn't talk too much nonsense like Lu Yulin, and directly gave the roster to Dai Zhou.

After looking at the roster for a while, Dai Zhou was really shocked!

Will Cui Mao support the new tax law, or pay taxes voluntarily and proactively?

Why are these top families so abnormal?To say that you support is to support, it is completely different from what you have shown before!

"Patriarch Cui..."

Dai Zhou still wanted to call him back to ask for clarification, but he had already left.

"Mr. Dai, please count the quantity first. I'd better go to His Majesty and then go to Chang'an Bookstore."

Li Yi'an said: "It's almost noon now, the new newspaper will be called Chang'an Morning News."

First the Lu family, then the Cui family.

Of course he knew that there was a problem, but he still couldn't find out why.

Judging from the current situation, there is no harm to him and Li Shimin. If this is the case, we should follow the trend.

"Is it possible that behind this, who else will help me?"

Li Yian muttered in his heart.

The speed of Chang'an Bookstore is also very fast. Just after noon, the newspaper was published immediately, and then the entire Chang'an family was dumbfounded.

The Wang family was originally a traitor to the family and could be ignored, but not long after the Lu family became a traitor, it was soon the Cui family's turn to become a traitor to the family. What happened to the Chang'an family?

When Cui Mao read the Chang'an afternoon newspaper, he was also stunned for a while, and then shouted: "Li Yi'an, it's you again!"

But thinking of the Chang'an Evening News on the day Lu Yulin's accident happened, he felt that it was normal, there was nothing Li Yi'an couldn't do.

"Tianming, hurry up and close the door, no matter who comes later, ignore it!"

Cui Mao shouted again.

Cui Tianming thought about what happened to Lu's family that day, and quickly ordered someone to close the door and block it.

Not long after closing the door, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then someone yelled for Cui Mao to open the door, and even started banging on the door.

How could Cui Mao dare to open this door, he simply went back to his room.

Seeing this scene, Cui Rongrong didn't know how to deal with it for a while, but what was certain was that her father was hiding something from everyone, including the entire Cui family.

Those people made a fuss for a while and couldn't see Cui Mao coming out, and finally left, and the outside also returned to calm.

But as soon as those people left, people from various branches of the Cui family came later and asked Cui Mao what was going on?

Cui Mao, as the head of the family, used the majesty of the head of the family to forcefully suppress this matter, and it was regarded as coping with it.

"Prepare the car!"

Cui Rongrong felt even more uneasy when she thought of the figure she saw that night.

Li Yi'an told Li Shimin all about this matter, and discussed the reasons together, but they couldn't find anything wrong.

Then they got the news that Lu Yulin went to Cui Mao yesterday, and today Cui Mao suddenly expressed his support for the new tax law, there must be some connection.

They still can't find out the deeper things.

It is certain that the problem still comes from Lu Yulin.

Since there is no harm to them, even Li Shimin feels that he must follow the trend.

Walking out of Ganlu Palace, Li Yi'an had no intention of going back to the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and was about to go home, but not long after he walked out of Chengtianmen, he saw a carriage approaching.

"Li Shilang, please get in the car and tell me!"

The curtain of the carriage was lifted, Cui Rongrong said softly.

"So it's the wife of the Cui family!"

Li Yi'an didn't refuse, and when he got inside the carriage, he could still smell a faint fragrance, and asked, "What do you want from me? I don't believe in the old-fashioned talk of reminiscing about the past."

"How do you explain what happened to our Cui family?"

Cui Rongrong looked at him straight, her eyes full of doubts.

When this kind of thing happened, many people's first thought was that Li Yi'an did it. After all, he was the beneficiary.

Li Yi'an rubbed his nose and smiled: "I still want to ask your Cui family for an explanation, Lu Yulin went to your Cui family once, and you will come to pay taxes the second time, Madam Cui, you are not going to explain to me? "

Cui Rongrong didn't respond immediately, and Li Yi'an didn't follow up.

The carriage moved forward slowly, and after walking for a long time, she said: "Lu Yulin came here before, and he said he had my father's secret in order to blackmail him into supporting the new tax law. Do you know what this secret is? Know?"

"A secret that even you don't know, but you come to ask me?"

Li Yi'an felt that this woman was here to make a joke, and continued, "Why don't you ask Cui Mao?"

Cui Rongrong shook her head and said: "Father doesn't want to say, so I can only ask you, because no matter from which point of view, you get the most benefits and the most suspicion."

She paused for a while, and then said: "Do you know, a very mysterious person? I can't see his front, he is wearing black clothes, and his height is about..."

She briefly described the wolf lord's appearance for a while.
