The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 1867 Xu Jingzong

As soon as Li Chengqian said this, there was no movement below. They all knew that the emperor had really made up his mind to punish the Zheng family this time, and punish those who reached out to the bank. However, there are so many in Datang Qianzhuang, how does he want to check?Who to send to investigate?Who dares to check clearly?
Baiqisi?
The word Baiqisi appeared in the minds of everyone present, but it was really possible, only the Baiqisi people around the emperor would not be afraid of those people, right?Because they just obey the emperor's order, and they don't need to worry about anything else. Except for the emperor, no one buys it, and they don't have to bear the consequences when they do things. After the matter is found out, the result is handed over to the emperor's desk , Everything is the emperor's decision, regardless of the flood, it has nothing to do with them.

Among the hundred officials, few dared to offend Baiqisi.

"Your Majesty, the matter of the bank should be dealt with slowly, not too hastily." Changsun Wuji said: "If this can be done, it is nothing more than a matter of time to thoroughly investigate the bank, and it is not a big problem."

Li Chengqian nodded on the surface, but there was a sneer in his heart.

Take it easy, start to check the bank, and then as soon as the news leaks, give the rest of the people who haven't been found some time to get out?How could such a thing not be in a hurry?

Fortunately, Chang'an City has not yet heard about Xuan Shijing's investigation of the bank in Luoyang City. Now that the account book is delivered, the news may spread, but between the coming and going, it is almost the first day, and the news will definitely be passed on. It won't be too fast, at least we can buy another blank time, so that Xuan Shijing can handle all the problems properly in Luoyang and go to the next stop.

No one knows where Xuan Shijing will go next, not even the emperor Li Chengqian.

At this time, Lin'an quietly walked to Li Chengqian's side, bowed his body and said in a low voice: "Your Majesty, the four hundred li from Luoyang hastened, and the ones who came back are from Baiqisi."

"Where is the person?" Li Chengqian asked.

"It's just outside the hall." Lin'an said.

"Yes, I see, let him wait in the side hall first." Li Chengqian said.

"Yes." Lin'an responded and left the Xuanzheng Hall instead.

"If you aiqings have nothing to say, let's come here today, Ministry of Household Affairs, and deal with the bank as soon as possible after returning." Li Chengqian said: "I will hand over the treasury and the bank to you with peace of mind." , don’t let me down, understand?”

"Yes, the ministers will live up to His Majesty's trust." The three members of the household department got up and bowed their hands together.

"As for the others, Xu Jingzong, you stay, and the rest, leave." Li Chengqian said.

"Yes, I will take my leave."

It has to be said that Li Chengqian needs courtiers like Xu Jingzong. Such courtiers are very effective at critical moments when discussing matters.

Just like the matter just now.

Xu Jingzong would act according to the emperor's face and try to figure out the emperor's mind. Sometimes such behavior would not make the emperor disgusted.

And Xu Jingzong happened to be such a smart person. He has highlighted this point since His Majesty Li Er was in power, so at that time, he had a certain status in the court. Now that the new emperor has ascended the throne, At this time, it is still the case, and you can even come to Xuanzheng Hall to participate in the discussion from time to time.

Xu Jingzong understood the meaning and value of his own existence. At the beginning, Xu Jingzong had no power and power, so he could only rely on the emperor's favor to gain power and the right to speak in the court. With real advantages and foundations, wouldn't his career as an official be up and running?Wouldn't it be smooth?

After the other people in the Xuanzheng Palace left, Li Chengqian said: "I am deeply touched by Xu Aiqing's remarks just now, if there are more officials like Xu Aiqing in the court, I will be able to relieve my worries a lot. "

"Your Majesty praises you, I am dedicated to serving the country, and after thinking about the pros and cons of this matter, I told Your Majesty the truth." Xu Jingzong said with his hands clasped.

"It's really good to have this kind of thought. The bank should be investigated, but what other people said just now is not unreasonable. Among them, there must be a degree." Li Chengqian said: "Regarding the matter of the bank, Xu Aiqing may help me do something. matter?"

"If your majesty has orders, I will go through fire and water, and I will die." Xu Jingzong immediately expressed his position after hearing the words, and his attitude was firm.

"Xu Aiqing is really a loyal minister." Li Chengqian showed a gratified smile on his face: "So, Xu Aiqing will take this ledger."

With that said, Li Chengqian gave the account book on the desk to the servant beside him, and the servant came to Xu Jingzong with the account book and handed the account book to Xu Jingzong.

"This account book, Xu Aiqing went back to take a good look. Just now I didn't say where the account book is from and which bank it is involved in. Now I tell Ai Qing that this account book is the account book of the Luoyang City Bank. The family involved is The Zheng family." Li Chengqian said.

Xu Jingzong was shocked, the Zheng family!

Your Majesty, what do you want yourself to do?Give yourself the account book, let yourself find a way to deal with the Zheng family?Can this be done?

Xu Jingzong had already started to think about how to get out of his own way, or in other words, put off this errand.

But I just said something in front of the emperor, and now I shirk it, isn't it a little bit.
"Why, Xu Aiqing, are you afraid? Are you afraid of the Zheng family?" Li Chengqian asked with a smile.

"No, I don't, I'm just a little surprised." Xu Jingzong said: "Many of the Zheng family are officials in the court. They are the mainstay of my Tang family. I never thought that the Zheng family would be involved in the bank. Shorting Qianzhuang, I feel that the Zheng family is not a family short of money."

Hearing this, Li Chengqian said with a smile: "The Zheng family is indeed not short of money, but no one would ever feel that they have too much money. People, if they can really control their greed, the world is bustling with people, and they can't afford it." There wouldn’t be so many things happening all the time.”

"Your Majesty said, I wonder what His Majesty wants to do to the Zheng family?" Xu Jingzong asked.

"Since it involves the Qianzhuang, Xu Aiqing's words made me feel a lot, so I plan to take a close look at the matter of the Qianzhuang." Li Chengqian said: "Especially this Zheng family, does Xu Aiqing understand?"

Of course Xu Jingzong understood that His Majesty wanted to kill chickens and monkeys to warn others. The Zheng family involved strength. His Majesty wanted to rectify the Zheng family. This is to tell the world that even though the Zheng family is a big family, the survival of the Zheng family is just a matter of life and death. It's just a sentence from the emperor. In Qianzhuang, whoever dares to stretch out his hand will die!

However, after hearing Li Chengqian's words, Xu Jingzong was also a little bit worried. He remembered what he said just now in the Xuanzheng Palace, did he exaggerate it too much?
