Sui and Tang Dynasties: Killing Emperor Wen of the Sui Dynasty to sacrifice to heaven at the beginni

Chapter 102 The Countermeasures of the Powerful Family

Daxing City, Fan Mansion.

This Fan Mansion is the mansion of Fan Zigai, an important minister of the Sui Dynasty, the minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.In the past few days, Fan Zigai's life has been difficult. Fan Zigai, who was originally radiant and did not look old at all, seemed to have aged ten years in just a few days.

A total of 48 taels of gold was lost. This is a yellow bar. If it can't be found, it will be enough to cover his head.

The relationship between Fan Zigai and Yang Guang was not very harmonious. Fan Zigai, as the main output of the powerful family camp, had offended Yang Guang a lot since Yang Guang succeeded to the throne.Undoubtedly, now that he has a legitimate excuse, Yang Guang will definitely kill Fan Zigai.

It has been a few days since the royal bar was lost, and the aristocratic family has tacitly helped Fan Zigai to suppress the news.However, this is 48 taels of royal bar. If you can't get it back, it's useless to just cover up the news.

In Fan Zigai's mansion, Yuwen Shiji, Su Kui, Cui Jin, Wei Shikang and others gathered together to help Fan Zigai think of a way.

"Lord Fan, this matter will only be covered up for half a month at most. If Huang Gang doesn't reach Daxing City after half a month, then everything will be missed." Yuwen Shiji said worriedly.

Fan Zigai can be considered a person of weight in a powerful family.At this time, how could the aristocratic family who had always united against the imperial power not help Fan Zigai.If Fan Zigai was taken down, it would mean that the powerful family lost the territory of the Ministry of Civil Affairs.

Whether the royal bar can be found is the most important thing now.If the Huanggang is found, at worst, Fan Zigai will delay the date of the Huanggang's entry to Beijing, which is not a serious crime.But if you can't find the royal bar, then even the Heavenly King and Lao Tzu can't keep Fan Zigai.

"Your Majesty, is there any movement now." At this time, Cui Jin asked from the side.

After pondering for a while, Wei Shikang said: "Your Majesty, there is no movement at all, but I am afraid that this matter has already reached His Majesty's ears. If there is no movement from Your Majesty, it is all right. Once there is movement, I am afraid that Mr. Fan Life is at stake."

"For Your Majesty, it is best not to find the 48 taels of gold. As long as the 48 taels of gold cannot be found, Lord Fan's life will be at stake, and the Ministry of Civil Affairs will become His Majesty's possession. "

As soon as Wei Shikang's words fell, Su Kui spoke again: "My lord Fan wants to sign up now. I'm afraid that apart from recovering the 48 taels of royal bar, he will seek refuge with His Majesty and become His Majesty's loyal dog." I can go."

The purpose of Cui Jin, Wei Shikang, and Su Kui singing together is to test Fan Zigai's current thinking.I want to test whether Fan Zigai has the idea of ​​betraying the powerful family, joining Yang Guang's command, and becoming Yang Guang's loyal dog.

After all, people's hearts are separated from each other, and Fan Zigai is not far from the end of the mountain. If he really took refuge in Yang Guang at this time, he might really be able to save his life.

As the saying goes, old people become smart, Fan Zigai is extremely shrewd.He knew in his heart that his position could not be changed at this time, the label of aristocratic family was engraved in his bones, it didn't mean that changing the family could change the family.

At this time, he must stand firm, so that the powerful family has no worries, and only in this way, the powerful family will unite to help him and protect him.

"I, Fan Zigai, am old, and the loess has been buried up to my neck. If there is a day when there is no way out, I just ask everyone to keep my wife and children." Fan Zigai said to everyone sincerely.

Hearing Fan Zigai's words, the people sitting here couldn't help but relax a bit.The fact that Fan Zigai was able to say such a thing showed that he had no intention of betraying the aristocratic family in his heart.

"Mr. Fan, what are you talking about? We are all prosperous and all will suffer. If the imperial power is strong, our power will be weak. If you fall, it will be of no benefit to anyone." Su Kui hurriedly stated his position.

"Master Fan, Brother Su, I have an idea." At this time, Cui Jin cupped his hands and said.

"Brother Cui has any ideas, but it's okay to say." Su Kui said.

Cui Jin looked at a few people, and then said: "Although the amount of 48 taels of Huanggang is not small, it is also an astronomical figure for our family, but if everyone shares it, it is not a big figure. If this If you can’t find the royal bar, why don’t we share the loss and collect a batch of gold and hand it over.”

When Fan Zigai heard this, his eyes could not help but light up, and he thought, this is a good way.

"Even if the 48 taels of Huanggang is apportioned, it is not a small amount. Are you willing to apportion this expenditure?" Fan Zigai asked.

Su Kui pondered for a moment, and felt that there was really no other way.Su Kui thought about it for a while, and then said: "In all the prefectures and counties of our Sui Dynasty, there are officials from our various aristocratic families, and everyone knows what the taxes paid every year are. Master Fan is in the household department. With this position, everyone can get a lot of benefits every year. If the household tribe falls into the hands of His Majesty, let alone what will happen in the future, I am afraid that the old scores from the past will also be turned over."

"Thinking about it, everyone knows how to weigh the pros and cons. If Mr. Fan really falls, I'm afraid how many people will be involved. If you share the 48 taels of gold, it's like buying the household department. Shangshu is an official position."

"Well, I'll discuss it with the major families. While we continue to send people to find the lost royal bars, we are preparing to make a new batch of royal bars to deal with them. It would be best if we can get them back, but if we can't, then Just use this new batch to count.”

"In that case, thank you all over there." Fan Zigai stood up and saluted several people.

After taking countermeasures, Fan Zigai also regained his vigor, as if he had been reborn.Now even if the 48 taels of royal bars cannot be retrieved, new bars can be cast to make up for them. What needs to be done now is to delay for a few days, which is not difficult for Fan Zigai.

If there were many coincidences at this time, even though Li Mu, a butterfly flapped its wings, what changed was always only some minor details.Just as the saying goes, the small trend can be reversed, but the big trend cannot be changed.

In the previous life, Cheng Yaojin, You Junda and others robbed Yang Lin's royal bar, but now they robbed Fan Zigai's royal bar.After being robbed once in the previous life, Yang Guangyou prepared a batch, and now Fan Zigai is also preparing a batch of royal bars.

At the beginning, Cheng Yaojin and You Junda made the second royal bar, but now it seems that the scene of the second royal bar seems to be repeated.

No matter what, Li Mu couldn't let him enter the capital with this imperial bar. Only when the imperial bar was lost would Yang Guang have an excuse to move Fan Zigai.

If Yang Guang wants to win this wave of battle between imperial power and powerful families, then this batch of imperial bars must not be allowed to enter Daxing City.
