Datang: Acting as a celestial mystery at the beginning

"If we dare to declare war on Li Erlang, we will die faster."

Li Yongfeng immediately said: "Don't forget, we are in Chang'an, and Li Erlang controls the military power. If he gets anxious, can we still live?"

This sentence completely dispelled their thoughts.

Although if Li Shimin dared to take action against the five surnames and Qiwang, it would be tantamount to angering the world's aristocratic families, and the consequences would definitely be terrible.

But if Li Shimin was pushed into a hurry, under such circumstances, it would not be a troublesome thing to get rid of them first, and the other aristocratic families would be appeased later.

Li Yongfeng added: "If I were him, I would definitely not let us leave Chang'an until the whole matter subsides. This is the safest way for him."

"That's right, that's it!"

The steward of the Zheng family said tremblingly: "When I came, I heard that all the city gates in Chang'an were under martial law, and everyone who entered or exited had to show their passports and verify that they were correct before they could leave, otherwise they would be arrested by officers and soldiers. "

It's true!

Their hearts sank.

"At this time, we must not act rashly."

Wang Yuanhua said loudly: "The arrest of the salt and iron merchants is not a big problem, at most it is a loss of some benefits. But the reason behind the arrest of officials is definitely not that simple. My brother Wang Gui is the doctor of the imperial history, and the imperial official is not Few people are his protégés, I asked him to ask what happened."

In addition to supervising all officials, the Yushi doctor can also comment on the emperor's faults.

"Judging from our current situation, that's the only way to go."

Lu Yulin's words immediately got their approval.

"Our account is very clean, maybe we can bite the imperial court."

Li Chengen agreed: "If you dare to cut off our interests, we will cut off his interests too."

After Wang Yuanhua left Cui's house, he immediately returned to his own home.

"Aye, have you received the message?"

Wang Rujing looked at a paper book, which was Li Yi'an's "Legend of the White Snake", and read it with gusto.

"Ru Jing, tell me the truth, before paying the salt and iron tax, did you know something inside?"

Wang Yuanhua was still surprised, how could Wang Rujing calculate so accurately.

"I can have any inside information, but it's just a guess."

Wang Rujing smiled and said, "The imperial court clearly wrote in the Chang'an Daily that Yantie should be rectified. Do you think Li Erlang wrote this for no reason? Certainly not, Aye should have been questioned by the other six, right?"

Her reason was really simple. She read the newspaper and felt that the court would make a big move, thinking that the salt and iron tax could not be avoided.

After seeing Li Yi'an, she confirmed her idea even more.

"Hmph! They laughed at our Wang family back then, but now they know how correct you are, Ru Jing."

Wang Yuanhua said displeasedly: "How dare you question me? He is jealous of us!"

Wang Rujing smiled and said: "It is true that we are jealous, because when I paid the salt and iron tax, I also handed over all the false accounts I made before and the evaded tax to the Ministry of Civil Affairs. In comparison, we have not lost much. .As for the arrest of officials, it is likely to be related to the Ministry of Civil Affairs."

Regarding his daughter's conjecture, Wang Yuanhua is convinced now. After thinking about it seriously for a while, the Yantie Division is managed by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, and if the officials are arrested, it is really related to the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

"This time, thanks to Ru Jing!"

Wang Yuanhua felt relieved, the Wang family was really lucky.

The other six are really idiots.

"I am also a member of the Wang family, so I should do so."

Wang Rujing said while reading.

"It's a pity, Ru Jing is a woman, and she will leave the Wang family after all."

Wang Yuanhua said reluctantly: "It's just that, in the past four or five years, there hasn't been any man who can make Ru Jing look up to."

Wang Rujing closed the pages of the book and said with a smile, "That's not necessarily the case!"

In her mind, the figure of Li Yi'an emerged.

In her heart, Li Yi'an had already been labeled as a passer. Except for him, all the other men could not even reach the threshold of passership.

The reason is that Li Yi'an's performance that day, as well as various methods, made her admire.

Wang Yuanhua didn't know what she was thinking, so he went directly to Wang Gui and asked him to question Li Shimin tomorrow.

After finishing all these, Wang Yuanhua was going to rest for a while, but Uncle Wang came to him.

"Master, I think that Madam may have some ideas about Li Yi'an."

Although Wang Bo had promised Wang Rujing not to say anything casually, but it was related to the future of their Wang family, so he couldn't help but tell Wang Yuanhua what happened that day.

Wang Yuanhua felt bad all over, and then he waved his hand to let him go down, thinking in his heart, is this true?

Not long after he left, Uncle Wang saw Wang Rujing walking towards him, and he cupped his hands guiltily.

"Uncle Wang, tell me everything."

Wang Rujing looked at him with a smile.

"me……"

Uncle Wang was flustered, but the aunt was so powerful that she could see through his heart at a glance.

"Okay, it's nothing important."

Wang Rujing didn't argue too much with him, she turned around and walked out of the Wang family's gate.

She walked all the way to Dongshi, outside Li Yian's shop, if I remember correctly, today is another day for selling perfume.

However, a large group of ladies were snapping up purchases outside, and Wang Rujing had no intention of squeezing in, and waited quietly.

When the crowd dispersed, she stepped forward and said, "Give me a set of perfume, too."

"Sorry, we're out of perfume."

The female employee shook her head, but then asked tentatively, "Is the lady's surname Wang?"

Wang Rujing nodded slightly.

"Sir, he said that he prepared a set for Mrs. Wang's family."

The female employee went back and came up with three small bottles.

"Thank you sir for me."

Wang Rujing put it away generously, but there was a beautiful smile on her face.

-

In the early morning of the next day, the Ganlu hall was on.

Today's atmosphere is a bit heavy, Changsun Wuji and other close officials around Li Shimin probably know what happened.

Another group of ministers learned that the Ministry of Criminal Justice and Dali Temple had jointly arrested a large number of officials yesterday. They were still in a state of confusion and didn't know what happened, so they were panicked.

They even felt that Li Shimin was still continuing to settle the case, and the people who used to be around Li Jiancheng were the ones who used to be so fierce.

The third person is Wang Yu, the official censor, and other people from the censor platform. Recently Li Shimin inserted Wei Zhengan in the censor platform. He had some opinions, but Wei Zheng didn't do anything, so he didn't care.

However, since yesterday, Wang Gui learned that Wei Zheng and Ma Zhou, together with the Ministry of Criminal Justice, had investigated many officials, and they were still being concealed from them. Things became more and more difficult.

"The saint is here!"

At this time, a wrestler shouted.

Li Shimin came out slowly. He had just sat down and before he could speak, Wang Gui stepped forward and bowed his hands respectfully.

"Your Majesty, I have the original performance!"

As soon as he said this, there were more than a dozen people behind him, except for those from Yushitai, and officials from aristocratic families who had relatively clean backgrounds and were not arrested, all stood up.

"I have the original play!"

More than a dozen of them said almost in unison.
