The First Young Master of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 947 Li Chengqian's Thoughts

Such an approach made Xuan Shijing feel a little uncomfortable. I can't say what kind of feeling it is, but it's just very uncomfortable.

This act is dishonest.

"Is that so?" Xuan Shijing responded.

Jin Yang looked at Xuan Shijing, as if he had something to say to Xuan Shijing, then looked at Li Chengqian, but swallowed back what he wanted to say.

"Xiao Jing, those officials in the Eastern Palace advised me not to speak for General Hou. I want to hear what you have to say." Li Chengqian said.

Most of the officials in Li Chengqian's East Palace were from aristocratic families, and most of them were civil servants. Naturally, they didn't have a good impression of Hou Junji, and when Hou Junji came back from defeating Gaochang, the rewards for his achievements were probably indispensable. It's so big, the generals get one more point, and they get one less point, and many officials want to use this incident to show their face in front of His Majesty Li Er, to show their fearless spirit of not being afraid of power .

After all, the impeachment was a general with a heavy army in his hand, a general who had just returned from victory, so he couldn't even show his face at this time.

Most of the officials in the East Palace are civil servants, except for Prince Liu, but the soldiers of Prince Liu are all Li Chengqian's personal soldiers. There is no high-ranking general in the platoon, and they can't say much in the court, even if they all know that Hou Junji is right. It is important for Li Chengqian to demonstrate, but so what?Still no way.

"What Hou Junji did in Gaochang is true, and it is also true that he embezzled a large amount of property. These are indisputable facts. How do you say that?" Xuan Shijing spread his hands.

"You don't agree with me pleading for General Hou?" Li Chengqian said.

Even Xuan Shijing said that, Li Chengqian was a little confused, and everyone around him opposed him interceding for Hou Junji in front of His Majesty Li Er, but Hou Junji was his father-in-law after all, and when he sat in that seat in the future, It was his minister of the humerus. Now that Hou Junji was in trouble, if he stood by and watched, what would Hou Junji think?

The most important thing in Li Chengqian's heart is to worry about what Hou Junji will think of him.

Moreover, now in the East Palace, Hou Junji's daughter has been kneeling in the study room begging herself to save her father, and he couldn't bear her pleading, so he left the palace for a while, and came to Xuan Shijing to ask What does he think.

In Li Chengqian's impression, Xuan Shijing has always been a person with ideas, and Xuan Shijing seems to have some special talents in government affairs.

Now even Xuan Shijing doesn't agree with him speaking for Hou Junji, if this goes on, how will he face Hou Junji in the future, not to mention, after returning to the palace, how will he face Hou's family?
"Brother Jing's words are also reasonable. As far as the matter is concerned, Sizi does not agree with the prince's brother speaking for General Hou. If the prince's brother is afraid that General Hou will misunderstand, he can send someone to visit General Hou's mansion. , Brother Prince is not suitable to meet with General Hou at this time, after all, he wants to avoid suspicion." Jin Yang said.

Li Chengqian nodded, but felt in his heart that once this matter was over, Hou Junji would definitely have a grudge against him.

"Forget it, it's rare to come out today. I've prepared a bow and arrow. It's still early. How about we go hunting in the Eastern Suburb hunting ground?" Li Chengqian suggested.

Xuan Shijing raised her eyebrows and shook her head: "Forget it, I won't go, hunting or something is too tiring, I still prefer quieter sports." Xuan Shijing laughed.

"Why don't we go to Daozhengfang together." Jin Yang said, "It just so happens that the prince brother has not seen the house that brother Jing gave to Si Zi." Jin Yang said.

"Yeah, I forgot if you didn't tell me." Li Chengqian said with a smile when he heard the words: "After the year, all the houses in your Daozhengfang will be sold, and you have made a fortune."

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Xuan Shijing held an auction in Xuanwu Building, mainly for the house of Daozhengfang. After Qiandui and his father promoted it in the circle of wealthy businessmen, many wealthy businessmen have already set their sights on it. Daozhengfang's house is ready to buy a house, plus Fang Xuanling's intentional or unintentional publicity, many officials are also preparing to prepare a house for their children, so the Xuanwu Tower on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month is particularly lively.

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, the entire Xuanwu Building was closed to prepare for this auction. From noon onwards, the lobby on the first floor of the Xuanwu Building was full of people, all of whom came here. Naturally, the Xuanwu Building will not be stingy. Eat, drink, and be full.

Before the auction of Daozhengfang's house started, Qiandui's father had already brought many wealthy businessmen and friends to Daozhengfang to see it. After all, they would have the intention to buy it after seeing the house. After those novel houses in Zhengfang, let alone the itch in my heart.

Whether in the Tang Dynasty or in the Western Regions, have you ever seen such a gorgeous house?

That's right, it's gorgeous!Just the tiles used for the hall floor completely shocked these people.

The fifteenth day of the first lunar month is destined to be the day when Xuan Shijing makes a fortune.

Hearing Li Chengqian's teasing, Xuan Shijing said with a smile: "Why are you so jealous, didn't you share the money as a dividend? Although it's not much, it's out of intention."

As soon as Xuan Shijing mentioned this, Li Chengqian's heart became tired. He was still too young at the beginning, and the dividends from the chamber of commerce, when the three brothers got excited, filled up the House of Internal Affairs. Now the three brothers have cleaner pockets than the other. What matters is the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which is nothing. As for King Wei and King Wu, they live entirely on the tax revenue from the fief.

Li Chengqian had never been to Daozhengfang before, but he only heard Jin Yang say how interesting the house Xuan Shijing gave him was, and now that Jin Yang mentioned it, Li Chengqian became even more curious.

As for the matter of Hou Junji, we can discuss it while having fun.

In fact, Li Chengqian wanted Xuan Shijing to come forward. He knew it was not appropriate for him to intercede with His Majesty Li Er about Hou Junji's matter, but there must always be a suitable person. He felt that Xuan Shijing would quite appropriate.

He can speak well, the emperor's kindness is flourishing, and he has a good relationship with himself, and he is also a general.

The three of them came to Daozhengfang in a carriage. Today's Daozhengfang is no longer as deserted as it used to be. Walking along the street, you can see that there are more or less servants cleaning up the house, or some wealthy businessmen, all of them are gone. Lived in.

Daozhengfang itself lives in either high-ranking officials or wealthy businessmen. These are all contacts and resources. It is a good thing to move in earlier and get acquainted with the "neighbors" earlier.

House No. [-] also has servants living in it. On weekdays, when the owner is away, they do some cleaning work in the house, waiting for Jinyang to come at any time. Whether it is the bedroom or the kitchen, everything is ready. , not like last time, empty.
