The first emperor of Tang Dynasty

Chapter 146 The Mysterious Mr. Qi
"Yesterday Cheng Yaojin came back from Taiyuan Mansion and told me about the Taiyuan Mansion. I wonder what you think about the Taiyuan Mansion?" Li Shimin asked the civil servants and generals in the Taiji Hall.

"Your Majesty, Cheng Yaojin mobilized soldiers from the Bingzhou Prefecture without authorization. He slaughtered more than five hundred members of my royal family in Taiyuan, and asked the Emperor to make decisions for his ministers." Wang Wu, the censor, said to Li Shimin.

As soon as Wang Wu said this, Manchu Wenwu couldn't help but start whispering.Although Cheng Yaojin is eager to avenge his daughter, but doing so is too lawless.

But Cheng Yaojin grinned, and said to Wang Wu: "You really can spout blood."

"You said that I, Cheng Yaojin, mobilized and annexed the state government soldiers, but do you have enough evidence?"

"If I, Cheng Yaojin, remember correctly. The governor of Bingzhou seems to be called Wang Renheng, and he is a branch of your Taiyuan Wang family."

"Even if I, Cheng Yaojingui, are Lu Guogong, I'm afraid Wang Renheng may not be able to help me massacre your Taiyuan Wang family."

"I'm talking about Cheng Yaojin. Since you didn't do this, why did Wang Renheng lead his troops to slaughter the Wang family in Taiyuan?" Xu Maogong stood up and said.

"That's because Wang Renming, the second child of the Wang family, was so mad that he planned to burn my daughter, Cheng Yaojin, and Cui Yong, the eldest grandson of the Qinghe Cui family, to death in the Four Seasons Inn."

"And in order to get rid of the suspicion of the Wang family in Taiyuan, they are also planning to burn the third child of the Wang family to death together."

"Fortunately, the third child of the Wang family was rescued at a critical moment. It is precisely because of this that the truth of Wang Renming's evil deeds came to light."

"And when I, Cheng Yaojin, arrived in Taiyuan Mansion, I already knew that my daughter was not harmed in the slightest. So I was just going to ask Wang Renming for an explanation."

"Instead, I met Wang Renyou, the eldest son of the Wang family, and went to his second brother Wang Renming to argue. Not only did Wang Renming not feel that he had done something wrong, but he was planning to put Wang Renyou to death again."

"If it wasn't for me, Cheng Yaojin, and those little bastards, who risked their lives to rescue Wang Renyou, the eldest son of the Wang family, from the Wang family in Taiyuan. I'm afraid he would have died in the hands of my second brother."

"Wang Renyou, who escaped, found Wang Renheng, the governor of Bingzhou. Wang Renheng was very angry when he learned about this, and now he is going to arrest him and escort him to Chang'an for questioning."

"It's a pity that Wang Renming actually raised five hundred dead servants. He also commanded them to start a scuffle with the Bingzhou soldiers brought by Wang Renheng."

"And in the end, when Wang Renming became a loner, the boss Wang Rende also returned to Taiyuan Mansion. It's a pity that he died in Wang Renming's hands in the end."

"This is the whole story. If you want to talk about what Cheng Yaojin did, I just joined in the fun." Cheng Yaojin thought about it and said to everyone.

"Cheng Yaojin, I am well aware of your ability to turn black and white. I will order someone to investigate this matter thoroughly. If you let me know that you have something to do with this matter, I will never forgive you."

"But before you do a thorough investigation, you, Cheng Yaojin, should contemplate behind closed doors at home. Youwuweizhen will find someone to take over temporarily instead of you." Li Shimin said with a gloomy face.

Cheng Yaojin gave Li Shimin a nod, then turned to Wang Wu and said, "Now you are satisfied, boy, now I, Cheng Yaojin, have lost my job."

"But remember, boy, when the emperor finds out that this matter has nothing to do with my old Cheng. My old Cheng is looking for you to settle today's account."

After Cheng Yaojin finished speaking, he snorted coldly, then turned around and left the Tai Chi Hall.Seeing the back of Cheng Yaojin leaving, Wang Wu felt very comfortable in his heart.

At this time, Li Shimin continued to speak: "Changsun Chong, Qin Huaidao and others also participated in this matter."

"Although it is not the mastermind of the incident, it is inevitable to escape the responsibility. There is a sentence in the Three Character Classic, whether it is raised or not, it is the fault of the father."

"So all of you don't need to receive the two-year salary. As for how to discipline your sons, I don't need to teach you, do you?"

Seeing Li Shimin's gloomy face, Changsun Wuji, Qin Qiong and others hurried out of work.Said that he would strictly discipline his son.

……

"Mr. Qi, today the emperor dealt with everyone on the surface. But in fact, it was just a show."

"But now that the Wang family in Taiyuan has changed hands, my third uncle Wang Renyou will never tolerate me. It seems that I am besieged on all sides now." Wang Wu sighed and said Mr. Qi.

"Why are you so panicked, the Taiyuan royal family will no longer support you. But as long as you don't make any mistakes, the emperor will not dismiss you easily."

"However, you have offended those dukes all over the place today, and it may not be easy to gain a foothold in the court."

"Unless you can find a backer, someone who can protect you from wind and rain. And I think Li Tai, King of Yue, is definitely the most suitable candidate." Mr. Qi said.

"The king of Yue, Li Tai, and the wise king, Li Chengqian, have always been at odds with each other. They fought openly and secretly for the crown prince."

"Old Dukes like Cheng Yaojin and Yu Chigong are mostly on Li Chengqian's side. Naturally, they are in opposition to Yue Wang Li Tai."

"If I can join Yue Wang Li Tai's family, this life should be saved." Wang Wu nodded and said.

After finishing speaking, he turned and left to prepare gifts to visit Yue Wang Li Tai.

Just after Wang Wu left, Mr. Qi said to himself, "One day, I will let your descendants' blood flow like rivers."

……

"I said, son-in-law, it's really not easy to see you." Zou Fengchi said to Chang Sun Chong helplessly.

"It's not that I was cheated by the emperor's brother, but now I'm confined by my father in the son-in-law's mansion." Chang Sun Chong said with a helpless sigh.

"My son-in-law just took this opportunity to rest for a few days, but today I have something to say to my son-in-law." Zou Fengchi said with a smile.

"What made you come to me in person, could it be that Brother Huang has some news?" Chang Sun Chong asked Zou Fengchi.

Although Changsun Chong is the head of the virtuous palace, he is in charge of all of Li Chengqian's financial power.But he is rarely involved in 21st century affairs.

Apart from paying money to Chang Sun Chong, Zou Fengchi seldom contacted Chang Sun Chong.Today, I suddenly came to see Chang Sun Chong, which is why Chang Sun Chong asked this question.

"The son-in-law is really right. The prince sent a letter, asking me to cooperate with the son-in-law to deliver money and food to Qizhou City." Zou Fengchi nodded and said.

"Why does the emperor want to send money and food to Qizhou City? Isn't it possible to establish a foundation in Qizhou?" Chang Sun Chong said puzzled

"The prince said in the letter that he observed the weather and landforms on the road. He felt that there might be a flood, so he made preparations in advance." Zou Fengchi said while handing Li Chengqian's letter to Changsun Chong.

After Changsun Chong saw it, he couldn't help but sighed and said, "I didn't expect Brother Huang to even learn how to observe the sky. I really don't know what else he doesn't know."
