The man in black clasped his fists, knelt down on one knee, and said, "Reporting to Patriarch Cui, the villain will naturally handle the things you arranged for the villain to do! But it seems that the emperor can't be troubled at all! I used to use Tens of thousands of people were bought with money, and they pretended to be refugees and went to the foot of the palace to make trouble, but the emperor added sand into the porridge, which quickly exposed the truth to those refugees, and they were all imprisoned by the emperor! So, The villain is afraid, the emperor has doubts now!"
"What? Adding sand to the porridge water? So, people from other regions dare not pretend to be refugees and go to the underground of the palace to ask the emperor for things?"
"That's right, Patriarch, I never thought that the Emperor of the Tang Dynasty would be so smart. Our schemes are useless to him! Therefore, the world is peaceful and people's lives are peaceful, so we will not be able to catch the emperor's weakness!"
"Oh, that's all!" The old man sighed slightly, then put his hands on his back, and looked up at the sky with his eyes.
The old man muttered to himself, and said: "Your Majesty, long ago, he was jealous of our Cui family's military strength and financial resources. He showed it at that time, but he didn't really do anything to our Cui family!"
"But this year, taking advantage of the severe drought and natural disasters, the emperor came to our Cui family and took away hundreds of thousands of gold and millions of catties of grain. Not less, and even took back several large mines! On the surface, the emperor hopes that we can help the victims, but in fact, isn’t this just to deprive our Cui family of power in the Tang Dynasty? Hmph, it’s really unreasonable!”
"Anyway, my Cui family was in the blood of Emperor Yan in ancient times. We are all descendants of Emperor Yan. In terms of blood, we have more royal blood in our bodies than Li Shimin! Hmph, now that he is the emperor, How dare he deprive our Cui family of its influence? Did he leave without giving our Cui family a living?"
The more the old man talked, the more angry he became.
At the beginning, he would still call him Emperor Li Shimin, but after talking, he simply called Li Shimin's name directly.
How can mortals call out the brightness of the Son of Heaven?
The old man just saw that Li Shimin was not here, so he dared to say that. If he was really in front of Li Shimin, wouldn't he be the emperor?
At this time, Lin Fei, the man in black, said: "Patriarch, not only our Cui family in Qinghe, but also the Cui family in Boling, the Lu family in Fanyang, the Zheng family in Xingyang, etc., have all been deprived of their wealth and influence by the emperor! "
"Hmph, what about the people from the Li family in Longxi and the Li family in Zhaojun? Why didn't Li Shimin also deprive them of their influence? Could it be that because they have the same surname, why didn't Li Shimin deprive them of their financial resources?"
"It's hard to say, but I heard from others that the emperor gave the eighth prince two gold mines in Longxi, saying that it was to repay the kindness of the eighth prince for saving Princess Jinyang's life!" said the man in black.
The old man said: "It's just two gold mines, what the emperor took from our Cui family is worth at least ten gold mines!"
"If it is said that in the year of natural disasters, the people are suffering unspeakably, then we can pay more or less, but now, the people have resumed their peaceful lives in the past, I think it is also time for me to go to the emperor, Take back what is mine!"
The old man took a deep breath.
That was the inheritance left to him by his ancestors. If Li Shimin took away all of them, wouldn't he be ashamed of his ancestors?
In terms of status, his Cui family is a royal family handed down from ancient times.
Although the glory is no longer what it used to be, you, Li Shimin, at least give us enough respect, instead of blindly exploiting our strength?
The more the old man thought about it, the more angry he got, that's why he called someone to go to Liangzhou to bribe 10,000 people, pretending to be refugees and going to Chang'an City to make trouble.
He just wanted to deliberately disrupt the order of Datang and make Li Shimin a headache.
I don't want to, this matter was quickly solved by Li Shimin? And it almost revealed that they were behind the scenes?
This made Cui Yansong feel anxious and headache.
"Lin Fei, contact the Cui family of Boling, the Lu family of Fanyang, the Zheng family of Xingyang and other three patriarchs with five surnames, and ask them to come to my Qinghe Cui family to discuss this matter. In a few days, we will go to the palace together and talk to the emperor. reason!"
"But Patriarch, Your Majesty, will you compromise?"
"You don't need to worry about it, you just do what I say! Oh, by the way, also, let's call the red fox, that guy is also a member of our Cui family's bloodline, and he has been boasting about himself every day recently. After defeating so-and-so, he is already the number one swordsman in the world? Call him, let him go with me, at least there is a guarantee!"
"Yes, Patriarch, little one, let's make arrangements now!"
After finishing speaking, the man in black quickly left, and then disappeared, leaving only the old man alone in the compound, dejected.
…
Three days later, in the attic of the west wing.
Li Chengfeng was instructing Fan Meng and others to move things from the West Wing to the East Wing.
The big attic has been built, why stay in this tavern?
As the saying goes, when people go to high places, water flows to low places.
The East Wing is more than ten times larger than the West Wing, and Chang'an East Street is more prosperous than West Street. It will definitely be very good if it develops in the future.
"Crack!"
Li Chengfeng patted the dust off his hands, and wrapped his hands around his chest.
"Uncle Ta, Reiko, are things ready? Can we move in now?"
"It's coming soon, there's still a big pot, I'm reluctant to throw it away after using it for a long time!"
"Oh, it's just a cauldron. I have a lot of cauldrons in the attic of the East Wing, and all of them are new. They are much easier to use than yours!"
"No, Eighth Prince, it's mainly because of reluctance!"
While talking, Uncle Ta came out from the backyard of the West Chamber Pavilion with a **** pot on his back.
At this moment, Fan Meng was standing at the door of the attic in the West Wing with her hands wrapped around her chest.
The look on her face looked so sad.
After all, she has lived here for more than ten years, and she also has feelings, so she moved out as soon as she said she would move out. In fact, she was quite reluctant to part with it.
But for Li Chengfeng, she still did it.
"Hey, proprietress, starting tomorrow, we will start our signboard in the East Wing Loft!"
Li Chengfeng came to Fan Meng's side with a smile.
Fan Meng looked at Li Chengfeng and said, "Eighth Prince, if you hang out all day and don't go back to the palace, the emperor won't criticize you? And you don't have any guards around you. If there is any safety problem, it's a big deal. What should I do?"
Li Chengfeng smiled and said: "It's okay, my father won't care about me! Unless he has something he can't solve by himself, he will come back to me, other things, he is busy with his own affairs! For example, recently The incident of the refugee commotion is enough to give my father a headache!"
"Well, to be honest, I'm really reluctant to move away!"
