Super System in Chutang
Chapter 249 Follow-up
() Chang'an City can't hide things after all. Under the secret investigation of the Zheng family, the Li family was soon exposed. While the Zheng family was angry, they also felt a little strange why a mere businessman was so bold?! It's not just the Zheng family
Everyone, other people in Chang'an who know about it are also surprised, and want to know what the origin of this Li family is. Is it just a stupid young man who doesn't understand the rules? If that's the case, it will be great!
Over at the Li family, the two elders of the Cui family were "left" by Li Xingzhi for another night.
On the morning of the second day, the couple, who had not slept well all night, got up early, put on their makeup, and were about to open the door to go out. At this time, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Cui family, Alang asked me to ask if I would like someone to help with the washing. Alang asked the two of you to go to the lobby. Alang said that it is time for the newlyweds to pay their respects to their parents and elders."
The Cui family couple heard the slave's words, and they were a little angry and funny. They didn't know what to say. Is he really not afraid of the revenge of the Cui and Zheng families? I don't know if the eldest son of the Li family is really audacious? Or is it because of his heart?
They are confident and fearless! But at this time, the two of them are still calm. After all, they have already been angry. The only thing the couple is worried about is that they don’t know how their daughter is doing...
The two of them got dressed, went out, and walked to the hall under the guidance of their servants.
At this time, Li Xingzhi had already sat down in the hall. When he saw the two of them, he greeted them with a smile on his face and said that he was a good friend to his relatives. His attitude was so friendly that even the Cui family's parents could not get angry.
The two of them still didn't know what Li Xingzhi was planning, and how he was going to deal with the pressure from the Cui and Zheng families. They didn't think much about it at the moment, and sat down unceremoniously, sipping the fragrance of the tea carefully. This Li family
The refreshments and fruits here are really something you can’t get anywhere else. Even if the Cui family and his wife had not tasted delicacies before, they couldn’t help but take a few more bites.
Feng Deyi walked in front with a carefree and free attitude, stopping from time to time to support the woman behind him; waiting a little bit next to him, there was a young woman, walking awkwardly with thin steps and a seductive look on her face.
Shy and rosy. Follow behind.
Cui Zhiwen saw the young woman following the young man, her face expressionless, her brows slightly furrowed, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
Cui Zheng, who was sitting next to Cui Zhiwen, looked at Cui Ru'er who had become a woman. Seeing that her face was rosy and happy, she felt relieved, and then looked at Wang Erlang. Seeing Wang Erlang's dragon
Walking like a tiger, describing it as cool and unrestrained, extraordinary in elegance, and even more so from time to time
He stopped to help Cui Ru'er, who was walking a little awkwardly. I felt a little more satisfied. But thinking about the huge difference between the two family backgrounds, and the fact that the marriage was done in a somewhat unfair way, I couldn't help but feel worried.
Tall, the face that had been slightly stretched just now was wrinkled again.
At this time, Cui Ru'er, who was frowning, also saw the Cui couple, with a look of surprise on their faces! But seeing that there were no smiles on their faces, the worries that had been forgotten came back to her heart. She was rosy and happy.
The blood slowly faded from his face.
Cui Ru'er was pulled by Wang Erlang. She brought a bowl of tea and presented it to Li Xingzhi. After Li Xingzhi drank the fragrant tea, he put down the tea bowl and the two of them brought another bowl to the Cui family's parents next to them.
Cui Zheng hesitated for a moment, then stretched out her hand, took the tea bowl, and took a sip. She didn't know what it tasted like. But Cui Zhiwen looked solemn. There was no expression at all, as if he didn't see the two people handing over the tea.
Just like a tea bowl.
"Cough" Li Xingzhi coughed lightly, which hit Cui Zhiwen's heart like thunder. Cui Zhiwen was shocked, as if he woke up from his sleep, and glanced at Li Xingzhi. Seeing Li Xingzhi's smiling face, he suddenly let out a long sigh,
He took the tea, took a sip, and looked at Wang
Erlang glanced at him and said, "Just take care of yourself!" Then he looked at Li Xingzhi and said, "If your Li family can survive this festival, what if I recognize him as your son-in-law?!" Finally, he looked at Cui Ru'er and said, "If you want to one day
If you come back, just come back! You are still my daughter, Cui Zhiwen!"
When Cui Ru'er heard Cui's father's words, her eyes suddenly gushed down like water from a flat lake!
"Dad! My daughter is sorry for you and the Cui family!" As he said this, his body shook and he knelt down. "Dong dong dong!" He kowtowed several times!
Seeing this, Wang Erlang lifted up his hem, knelt down, and kowtowed.
Seeing this, Cui's father turned away. Next to him, Cui's mother was wiping her tears.
Li Xingzhi sat next to him, and after listening to Cui Zhiwen's words, his impression of him became much better. Perhaps it was not that the two were snobbish, but that the situation forced them; or perhaps they knew that only well-matched marriages would last longer. Even in later generations, most likely
Isn't it the same?
The Cui family's parents did not stay any longer. They were escorted to the gate by Li Xingzhi and Wang Erlang, a young couple, and hurriedly got into the carriage and headed to the Cui family.
At this time, the details of the Li family were also found out by the Zheng family. Everyone in the Zheng family listened to the steward's narration and did not take it seriously at first. When they heard about the sudden rise of the "Yelai Inn" and the "Book Collection Pavilion" that claimed to have a vast collection of books,
"It turned out to be the property of the Li family. I couldn't help but be shocked!
Although this Yuelai Inn surprised everyone in the Zheng family, they didn't care. In their opinion, no matter how powerful it was, it was just a lowly businessman. But when they thought of the library, everyone's eyes gleamed! There are so many of these big aristocratic families.
The young man is a bit of a bibliophile. He doesn't know how many volumes of ancient books there are at home, but they are hidden deep in a high building and he doesn't easily show them to anyone.
Originally, these people did not bother to inquire about the details of the Library Pavilion. Firstly, the Library Pavilion had not been established for a long time; secondly, in the eyes of everyone in the Zheng family, anyone who could produce so many books must have huge power behind them, so there was no need for it.
I went there to investigate, so as not to be offended in vain. I still don’t know what their intentions are.
Thinking of this, the people of the Zheng family, who said to themselves that they are representatives of scholars all over the world, couldn't help but their eyes lit up, just like an old rich man who regarded wealth as his life when he saw countless treasures!
The white-haired old man standing in the middle listened to everyone's discussion, looked at everyone's expressions, and said slowly: "This matter needs to be dealt with slowly. I think other families have also got the news. I wonder what the Cui family plans?"
"The Cui family didn't say anything clearly, and I don't know what their attitude is." A person came out and said in a somewhat disdainful tone.
"I think the Cui family has fallen into disgrace! They are associating with merchants!" Another person next to him angrily cursed loudly.
The old man in the middle shook his head when he heard everyone's anger, and everyone became quiet. After pondering for a while, he said: "The Cui family is not so short-sighted, I'm afraid they are ready to enjoy the benefits. After all, it is still unclear what the Li family is like!"
No one knows how the Li family suddenly rose to prominence. What’s even more worrying is that there are so many rare collections of books. It’s hard to say that there are no other forces behind them.
"Li family, Li family!" the old man said loudly, and for some reason, he looked towards the central yang of the imperial city.
A middle-aged man next to him, with a gloomy look on his face, stood up and said: "No matter how powerful he is, can he be more powerful than our three surnames and five high-ranking families?! I heard that the sworn brother of the eldest son of the Li family escaped military service and came back.
As long as he is caught, the little Li family will not let him go
Shall we knead it?" This man is the biological father of Zheng Jialang, who was the groom yesterday. At this time, he is still aggrieved. What he said about deserting is to be judged seriously. The head of the owl hangs his body, and it is unknown if the whole camp is even seated. And the Zheng family
.Obviously he has the ability to get Wang Erlang to be severely sentenced by the military.
"Zhong Cheng is right. If you don't teach me a lesson, everyone will just say that the Zheng family is easy to bully! Let Zhong Cheng handle this matter!" The old man said suddenly. There was a hint of quarrel between his words.
gas.
…
At noon that day, a column of dozens of heavily armed soldiers broke into Li's house and headed straight for the atrium! They were running rampant!
At this moment, a dozen big men, as naked as bronze, suddenly appeared out of nowhere and stood in front of these big-headed soldiers.
A little leader at the head clicked and pulled out a sharp sword. "The government is doing business, please get out of the way quickly!"
A burly man walking in front shouted in a thunderous voice, "Who is coming! How dare you break into a house in broad daylight! If you don't tell me your name, you will be beaten to death!"
The man saw that the crowd was approaching fiercely, so he did not dare to neglect. He did not want to add any extraneous details before achieving his goal, so he said: "I am an official from Wuhoupu. I saw someone breaking into your backyard, so I came in to investigate. And
Get out of the way and let me wait until I catch the bad guy! I won't disturb the peace of your family!"
"An official from Wuhou Pu? Please show me your waist badge!" the big man with a strong waist said again.
The little leader handed over the iron tag on his waist. The big man seemed to be careful. He looked left and right with the tag. When the officials became a little impatient, he called the big man next to him.
He asked in a muffled voice: "What are the words on this sign? Do you recognize it?" The big man next to him looked at it and said, "I don't recognize it either. Why don't I go and show it to Mr. Lang?"
The little leader saw that these big men were slippery and refused to let them go, so he secretly made a gesture to the dozens of people behind him. The officials understood, slowly put their hands on the knife handles, and surrounded the ten big men.
When the big man in charge saw the faces of the officials, he knew that he was going to use the knife. He squeezed hard and the iron plate was crushed into an iron lump. He shouted strangely: "Oh, this brand is so hard to use! Just pinch it like this."
It’s broken.”
When all the officials saw that the big man had broken his waist tag, they were furious. Watching the leader's actions, they raised their swords and chopped off the heads of all the big men with a proud smile on their faces!
"bite"
A crisp sound like the collision of metal suddenly rang out when the big sword hit the heads of several big men! The officials' expressions froze, as if they had seen a ghost, they looked at the missing pig iron sword under their hands, and then
Look at the heads of these big men, there isn’t even a white mark on them!
Everyone's face turned pale in an instant!
When the leader saw this, he felt weak in his chest and held on to himself. He twisted his head and said, "You want to kill my official?!"
"When did we say we were going to kill the officers?" The big man with a strong waist looked at the leader in confusion, and then said: "That knife of yours makes me feel so good! Hit me again!" After that, he touched the light.
Jian Wuhen's big head.
At this time, all the officials were stunned in the local area, unable to advance or retreat because the "Vajra Arhat" was blocking the way; to retreat, the people above had given a death order. Once they retreated, the position they had worked hard for for many years would be gone. Finally, the leader gritted his teeth and said,
After looking at dozens of big men, he knew that the matter couldn't be done, so he slowly withdrew. In his eyes, life was still more important.
After the officials retreated, Li Xingzhi got the message and walked out. After thinking about it for a moment, he realized that Wang Erlang's incident had happened. At this time, the Ministry of War was probably notified, and the envoys to the army were probably already on the way.
Moreover, one person in the army may not be able to protect him for long!
"If it's just Erlang and one person, it's easy to save it. If it's a 'battalion sitting together', it's going to be troublesome!" Li Xingzhi thought.
That afternoon, just after lunch time, in the backyard of the Li Mansion, a giant crane with a wingspan of nearly ten feet soared into the sky! On the back of the white crane, a figure loomed. The white crane hovered over the Li Mansion for several weeks before piercing the clouds like a sharp arrow.
Get out and head north!
The Zheng family all looked forward to this 'expected' result. Everyone in the Chang'an families also watched the development of the matter. By the time Wang Erlang left the army privately, everyone had no hope for the Li Mansion and only waited for the 'expected' result.
Medium' results appear.
If the Zheng family makes such an honest move, no one can find fault.
Everyone had heard the news. The front door of Li's house gradually became sparse, and few people came for several days. Cui's father had sent people to urge him several times, saying that he wanted to take Cui Ru'er home, but Li Xingzhi turned him away.
.
Ten days later, the results of the incident came out to the people sent to investigate. They met Wang Erlang in the army leading more than a thousand sergeants to practice hard! Even if they knew that Wang Erlang had left the army privately, the Zheng family had nothing to say.
After all, they were not caught right away, and the Zheng family really had little power in the military and could not speak out.
Everyone in Chang'an was shocked when they heard the result! Everyone speculated on what method the Li family used to send people to the army, and they were so much faster than the horses ridden by the Zheng family!
I don't know who it was, but suddenly I thought of the crane that was circling north in Chang'an City that day. The person couldn't tell his guess, but there were only a few believers. After all, things like riding a crane were too shocking. But it also made many people in Chang'an
After some conversation after dinner, the busybody found another source of the story. I can’t tell where it came from. Another myth and legend developed!
Even if things don't work out, the Zheng family will inevitably find themselves in a state of embarrassment again! They are even more unwilling to do so!
Since the obvious methods are useless, we can only resort to strange tricks.
A few days later, Li's cloth shop had a lot of customers in Yunlou, and even official servants came to take care of it from time to time. Gradually, it was unable to make ends meet and had to close its doors.
Seeing this, the people from all the families watching the show in Chang'an shook their heads. Merchants are really despicable. The Zheng family can't support it with just a few tricks. By now, I'm afraid they have no power to fight back!
Everyone has never thought about when they would put what they regarded as a "humble merchant's family" on the same platform as the Zheng family, a wealthy family! This was completely unbelievable before!
At this time, everyone set their sights on Yuelai Inn again.
This inn suddenly popped up and blossomed everywhere. It was the financial backbone of the Li family. If it collapsed, the Li family would be at the mercy of others.
The Zheng family was planning to find trouble in this inn, but unexpectedly, they had nowhere to start! However, it turned out that this inn was full of guests every day, most of whom were either rich or expensive, and ordinary means were not easy to use. Wang Xiucai thoroughly implemented
Li Xingzhi adopted the concept of collusion between officials and businessmen that Li Xingzhi brought from later generations, not only sharing the benefits equally, but also using various means to tie the Yuelai Inn to local officials and even high-ranking dignitaries, leaving the Zheng family helpless!
After all, the Zheng family is not the royal family. Although they usually consider themselves to have a profound background, they cannot clearly see the royal family. The influence of upstarts like the Li family in all aspects is not even weaker than that of the royal family, but after all, it is only influence, not comprehensive control! Once it is really involved
When interests are at stake and life or death is at stake, people may not always obey orders.
And the Library Pavilion is not the foundation of the Li family. Moreover, with the noble nobles of the noble family, there is no way they can do anything to burn books and close the library!
At this time, the Li family is like that ugly hard rock, and the Zheng family is like the majestic sea! Although the sea is huge and vast, there is nothing you can do about it with a small rock! The rock can stand on its own.
In the midst of the waves, still being beaten by the waves, I remain unmoved!
The Zheng family has a huge headache at this time. Facing the Li family, they are like a dog biting a hedgehog with nowhere to bite. Why can't they just hire some assassins to kill all the Li family? Not to mention the public in Chang'an City, just because of the pride of the family.
If you are proud, you will never do such a thing! But if you just retreat in such a dejected manner, you will lose face!
At this moment, something happened in the court
Li Shimin was already very dissatisfied with the arrogance and conceitedness of the Five Surnames and Seven Families. Now that he saw the Zheng family lose face to a small merchant family, he felt contempt in his heart, so he counted them and said: "It's better than in Shandong (beyond Weishan Mountain).
East) The four surnames Cui, Lu, Li and Zheng, although they are tired of Ye Lingchi, they still rely on their old land and are proud of themselves.
He is called a scholar-bureaucrat. Every time he marries a girl from another clan, he must ask for money from a large number of people, considering more as valuable, and making appointments based on the number. He is the same as the merchants, which is very harmful to customs and violates the etiquette. Since the weight is inappropriate, it needs to be reformed. I am real
I don’t understand why the four surnames in Shandong are so proud of themselves, and why do people value them so much?!" So he ordered his ministers to revise the "Chronicles of the Clan".
However, for some unknown reason, the editor ignored the Li family and ranked the Xingyang Fan family first. Li Shimin was furious!
No one knew that the editor was a little dumbfounded when faced with Li Shimin's thunderous wrath. Originally, since he was the editor appointed by Li Shimin, he had naturally received Li Shimin's instructions. Although he had other ideas in his mind, he was still calculating in private.
yes
Clearly. When compiling, the Li family of Longxi was naturally ranked first in the world! He never expected that when he got up on the second day, the ranking would change. The Zheng family was ranked first in the world! And the Li family of Longxi was completely
Ranked behind other families!
Li Shimin revised the "Chronicles of the Clan" again and ranked the Li family first.
This matter spread, and the whole world was in an uproar! The Zheng family in Xingyang seemed to be at the forefront! Not only did they face the suppression of the royal family, but they also faced the dissatisfaction of other families who were also high-ranking families!
The Zheng family can no longer take care of a small businessman and a little face.
