Chapter 421 The Cui Family Has No Tomorrow
"What? The evidence is conclusive. It's just outside Huaili City. The blood on the battlefield is still wet. Didn't General Hou dare?" Li Chengdao said dissatisfied.

Hou Junji explained: "Your Majesty misunderstood, the Li family in Longxi is truly extraordinary, they are one of the five surnames and seven families, the top wealthy family in the Tang Dynasty, and they will not dare to do anything without His Majesty's approval.

Your Majesty sent me here this time to deal with the interruption of the westbound Gaochang trade route.

Although we all know that it was the Li family of Longxi who did it, His Majesty only asked me to come to mediate, and only to open the way if there is any obstacle. It can be seen that His Majesty is also afraid of the Li family of Longxi.

Although it is a fact that the prince was attacked, you and I both know that they did it, but the other party has no banner, and we have no prisoners, so the other party can refuse to admit it to death.

Could it be that the imperial court mobilized an army to slaughter Huaili?That's 10 people!
Besides, the Longxi Li family has deep roots, and there are children of the Longxi Li family all over the country. If we wiped out the other party's lair, these people will definitely cause chaos in various places. The situation at that time may not be what you and I can predict.

So in the end, we dare not do anything without His Majesty nodding his head. "

After Li Chengdao listened patiently, he also believed in his heart that Hou Junji's words were reasonable, but he was still very angry. He almost confessed here, but now he has to swallow his anger?
The imperial court is really not as happy as my master Bai Fan. At the beginning, Wang Junkuo and Zhao Deyan killed as soon as they said they would, but now they dare to fight against the family alone, threatening to expel the Longxi Li family from now on. Doesn't the master know so many scruples?Impossible, there must be some way to fix it once and for all.

Hou Junji persuaded Li Chengdao, thinking in his heart that his trip was a waste of time, His Majesty wanted to take charge of everything by himself, just because he was afraid that the King of Anlu was too young and weak, now it seems that young people are better than the old guys like himself It was so fierce that it directly maimed the Li family in Longxi.

A group of [-] soldiers marched towards Liangzhou City in the north. Li Chengdao still did not give up and sent someone to send a message to Chang'an. No matter what, the Li family in Longxi must not let it go.

A day later, when the court messenger arrived, Hou Junji was still surprised, why did he get a reply just after sending someone out?Can it be faster than the flying eagle?

After he saw the letter from the imperial court, he lost his composure. He stood up against the table and shouted: "Come here, beat the drums and gather the generals. I'm going to pacify the Li family in Longxi to avenge my brothers."

Li Chengdao was puzzled, why Hou Junji was so timid and afraid of getting into trouble before he didn't do anything, why is he so domineering now, as if the Li family in Longxi had revenge for killing his father with him?
After inquiring, it turned out that the Escort incident broke out, Li Er sent Li Jing to the east to clean up the Cui family, and sent someone to deliver a letter to Hou Junji who was going west, asking him to lead troops to find the Li family in Longxi.

This time the northern bodyguard bureau was massacred, and the old brothers sent by Hou Junji were also killed and injured. Who can bear to see this?Although Hou Junji was greedy for money, he was the one who protected his weaknesses the most. The hundreds of old brothers he sent were almost slaughtered. They were the soldiers sent by the Li family in Longxi, so what if they didn't take revenge?

It just so happened that the emperor wrote in his hand that he allowed himself to lead his troops to seek justice for the retired veterans of the Tang Dynasty. With the decree, how can we not go to Li's lair to kill enough money this time?
Before Li Chengdao could pack up his more than 1 people, Hou Junji led his 2 people and galloped towards Huaili in the south.

Not to mention the result of the Li Clan in Longxi at this time, let's talk about the army on the East Road, Li Jing led a group of top Tang generals under his command, and [-] personal guards with strong combat effectiveness, and went straight to the Cui Clan's lair in Qinghe come.

In Fanyang’s Lu clan, Cui Junchuo fainted from crying a long time ago. If it wasn’t for the excessive grief and relapse of his old disease, he couldn’t travel far. At this time, he has already returned to the family, and now he can’t leave. He can only stay and heal while crying. up.

The patriarch of the Li family in Longxi is also quite depressed. There is no bad news from his family in Longxi, but the group of escorts have not spared his Li family in Longxi. Those who were officials, the rest were probably killed. Needless to say, they were all green forest killers, just like the Qinghe Cui family.

Fan Yang Lu looked at the situation and didn't say much. Although Fan Yang Lu didn't make a move this time, the hornet's nest of the Escort Bureau was stabbed by three families together. Maybe they will come to the door one day, so they can only be strict. Defend, try to shrink the forces, and call back the children who are alone.

That is to say, from this period, in the battle of the three families to destroy the Bai family, the aristocratic family began to turn into a disadvantage.

"Report, Patriarch, it's not good. The scouts came to report. The imperial court sent [-] troops to the Qinghe Cui family. It looks like it's not a good thing."

"What? What's going on here? Who took the lead?" Lu Chengguang exclaimed.

"Look at the banner, the leader is Li Jing, Duke of Wei, but this army has a lot of banners. The scouts said that it seems that every general has the banner, as if all the generals in the Tang Dynasty were dispatched, but this matter is obviously absurd. , the subordinates have reprimanded him."

"Well, send scouts to investigate again.

Come, invite Patriarch Cui and Patriarch Li to come. "

I heard that the army has gone to Qinghe, how can Cui Junchuo sit still?Dragging his sick body, he insisted on leaving. As the head of the family, even if he died, he would die on the way home.

The Patriarch of the Li family in Longxi looked at Cui Junchuo's aging back, and a trace of sadness flashed in his heart. Perhaps the outcome of this battle against Bai Bai was unpredictable, why did he have a bad premonition in his heart?

In Qinghe Cui Clan, the patriarch is not here now, and Cui Junsu, the younger brother of Cui Junchuo, is in charge. Cui Junsu used to serve in the court, but the Cui family was once robbed of half of the business by Bai Fan through economic warfare, so their reputation plummeted, and Cui Junsu was also pushed out. After leaving the court, he finally returned home to assist his elder brother in cooking.

Although the two have disagreed over the years, fortunately, Cui Junchuo has gradually learned to forbear. Except for dealing with Bai Fan, the Cui family is still very single-minded.

Outside Qinghe City, Cui Junsu led [-] family guards to stop the army that was about to enter the city.

"Li Jing, why did you lead the army to my Cui family in Qinghe? Could it be that you want to fight with us?"

Before Li Jing could answer, the black-faced Yu Chigong had already rushed out with double whips.

"Old man suffers, kill my hundred-year-old brother, I want you to pay with blood!"

"Jing De is back!" Li Jing shouted.

Cui Junsu was also dumbfounded, he didn't say a word, just rushed to kill?Does the Cui family have any grudge against Yu Chigong?Kill your hundred brothers?What's going on?

"Protect the elder, shoot the crossbowmen." Cui's guard shouted.

Yu Chigong was forced to retreat by more than 1000 crossbowmen, unwilling to turn around and rush back.

Li Jing drove forward and shouted: "Where is Cui Junchuo, the head of the Cui family? He ordered 5000 people from the Cui family to slaughter our 1 veterans of the Tang Dynasty in the north. This commander was ordered by His Majesty to come here to suffer for the innocent of the Tang Dynasty." Veterans seek justice."

Seeing Li Jing's stern words, Cui Junsu was a little stunned, slaughtering [-] veterans of the Tang Dynasty?Isn't this an enmity with the entire military?Big brother wouldn't be so confused!

"Duke Wei, my brother is not at home right now, and I have already sent someone to invite him. As for the matter of Cui's massacre of the veterans of the Tang Dynasty, it is absolutely impossible. Everyone, please wait a moment. Brother will come back tomorrow. We will investigate and report to the court. What do you think about the one who explained it?" Cui Junsu said loudly.

"Tomorrow? I'm afraid there won't be tomorrow for the Cui family. The witness has already been brought!" With a big wave of Li Jing's hand, Li Jing was pushed out behind him, and a hundred prisoners of death row were sent by people who met Zhang Liang in Luoyang on the way.
