People in Datang have been expelled from school

Chapter 1169
Tang Jian hurried home, saw his son Tang Songling and asked, "How much money do you owe at the gambling house?"

Tang Songling looked at her father's furious look and said, "Not many."

Tang Jian said angrily: "A few days ago, the old man felt that something was wrong with you. He took things from home all day long and never brought them back."

Just as he was talking, there was a noise outside the gate of the mansion.

Tang Jian looked outside the door and saw a group of people standing at his door yelling for Tang Songling to pay back the money!

For a while, more and more people watched.

Tang Jian paced back and forth and said, "How can you let me gain a foothold in the court?"

Tang Songling said to herself in a daze, "They said they wouldn't come to our house to make trouble."

Tang Jian slapped Tang Songling on the face and said angrily, "Do you know who they are? If you owe money to these people, they will disturb you."

The father and son were talking.

A servant from the family hurried over and said, "Duke Ju, there is a man named Xu Jingzong who wants to see you outside."

Tang Jian gritted his teeth and said, "What else is he here for?"

The servant lowered his head and said, "He said he could solve Duke Ju's urgent need."

Tang Jian looked to see that the people outside the mansion hadn't dispersed yet.

He hesitated for a while in his heart, if His Majesty knew about this matter, his face would be even more embarrassing.

Tang Jian sighed in compromise and said, "Let Xu Jingzong come in."

Let his son go to the backyard first, Tang Jian saw Xu Jingzong walking into the mansion.

Xu Jingzong said with a smile: "How is Duke Ju thinking?"

Tang Jian said in a low voice: "This child, old man, is really..."

Xu Jingzong said with a smile on his face: "It is inevitable for young people to make mistakes in their errands. As long as they have learned their lesson, they will not make mistakes again next time."

Tang Jian looked at Xu Jingzong and said, "You helped the old man solve his urgent need, you won't help the old man for nothing, right?"

Xu Jingzong nodded and said, "That's natural."

Tang Jian said again: "Are you working for Li Zheng?"

Xu Jingzong took out a dossier and handed it to Tang Jian, saying: "There are a lot of scandals about the courtiers on it, the Duke of Ju just needs to impeach those old officials in the court according to the scandals above."

Tang Jian looked at the black material above and not only sneered, "Now I finally know why you found me. You already know these things about my son."

Xu Jingzong said again: "Why should Duke Ju care about these things, there are still so many people blocking the gate of the mansion right now."

Tang Jian pondered for a moment, "I can do it, and you have to help me deal with these people."

Xu Jingzong took out a copy and said: "I also ask the Duke of Ju to sign it."

Tang Jian looked at the face on the document, which said that Xu Jingzong helped to deal with the debts of Tang Songling, the son of Tang Jian, Duke of Ju, and his father Tang Jian sued 35 ministers in the court according to Xu Jingzong's request.

Seeing that Tang Jian hadn't signed the pledge yet, Xu Jingzong said: "Whoever repents, you and I can take this paper to see His Majesty."

Tang Jian said: "The old man promises a thousand gold, why do we need such written evidence."

Xu Jingzong said: "I believe in what is written in black and white."

Tang Jian signed and marked on the paper, which was in duplicate.

After making the pledge, Tang Jian stood up and said, "That's all."

Xu Jingzong also collected the written documents, stood up and walked outside the Duke of Ju's mansion, facing the people asking for debts at the door, he said: "Everyone, come with me to Jingyang to collect the money."

It feels bad to be manipulated, and even worse to be blackmailed.

Especially people like Xu Jingzong.

This guy seemed to know about Tang Songling in advance, and only now came to threaten him.

But after thinking about it carefully, Tang Jian thought of another thing that he was terrified of thinking about.

If Xu Jingzong has many ministers' black materials in his hands, then as long as he takes out these black materials at the right time, he will blackmail the key people at the critical time.

Chang'an is a dragon pool and a tiger's lair, and it is also a pool of muddy water. Many people can't see how many forces there are.

Following Li Yuan since the war, Tang Jian naturally understood some of the situation in Chang'an.

This is also the reliance that Tang Jian can always hang out among the powerful.

It's just that now it seems that Xu Jingzong must have many eyeliners in his hands.

After thinking about this, Tang Jian couldn't help but smile wryly.

At the beginning, Xu Jingzong was still one of the eighteen bachelors in the Qin Palace.

Even if he sees the old man, he must be respectful.

Now he can threaten so blatantly.

The time is also the situation.

It is no longer what it used to be.

What does Xu Jingzong's power have to do with him?

After all, it is the emperor and the courtiers.

It was confirmed that the debtor at the door of the house did not come back after leaving.

Tang Jian began to write a memorial to impeach the ministers of the court.

There are 35 ministers who need to be impeached.

Going down to the door and going up to the Duke of the country, these black materials may not seem like a big deal, but they are enough to make those people feel uncomfortable.

Especially those old ministers in the court who broke things a lot.

After finishing Tang Jian's affairs, Xu Jingzong came to Jingyang again.

Li Zheng looked at Li Zhi's boiler drawing and said, "You can try this, but the utilization rate of the hot steam will not be too high."

Li Zhi nodded and said, "I'll let Tie Da build it."

After Li Zhi left, Xu Jingzong walked over and said, "Chang'an Ling, everything has been arranged, and it took some money but it went smoothly."

Li Zheng looked at the river in Jingyang and said, "Brother Zhu, have they sent any news recently?"

Xu Jingzong said: "There should be news after a while. They are also investigating the weapon case."

The weapons case has been being investigated by people in the court.

This case has not stopped even after the downfall of the five surnames.

Even if Li Shimin didn't mention it, there are still people in the court who are investigating in private.

What and who are the people who investigate this case.

How many clues did the other party have and how far they got.

This is what Li Zheng wants to know.

Although Wang Ding was watching from behind, Li Shimin was also covering him.

But not knowing who the other party is, or knowing the details of the other party, always makes people feel uncomfortable.

Xu Jingzong went on to say: "The envoy of the Wa Kingdom, Hirano I, has asked people to send the contract of painting to the Wa Kingdom. If all goes well, the 20 guan from the Wa Kingdom and the 20 from Goguryeo will be sent to Chang'an in the spring of the coming year. These days, the Wa Kingdom and Goguryeo have temporarily subsided. war."

With the climate of the East China Sea, if you want to start it now, you have to wait until the southeast monsoon comes.

Now that it is late autumn and winter is about to enter, the weather is starting to turn cold.

Wa Kingdom and Goguryeo face each other across the sea, and now is not a good time to continue the war.

The two countries are preparing for the winter, and they both have leftover grain at this time.

The fastest time for the next war to start is next spring or summer.

Li Zheng said to Xu Jingzong: "The food from Lingnan should also be sent over, right?"
