Chinese dining table

Chapter 714

The next day, when Yunchu woke up, Yu Xiurong was still sleeping soundly. Looking at his wife's sleeping posture like a begonia flower, he originally wanted to sleep with him for a while.

But he thought of Cui Mian who was locked at the gate of the county government by him, and had to hurry to work.

If he guessed correctly, today, his county government will be trampled to the ground by countless nobles in Chang'an City.

When Yunchu came to the county government office, as he expected, Cui Mian was surrounded by many people, and there were even two doctors who were treating Cui Mian.

Yesterday, when Yunchu helped Cui Mian pull his hand out of the small hole in the shackle, not only did he break his bones, even the skin on the back of his hand was basically peeled off.

When Yunchu arrived, those nobles who knew and didn't know all looked at him indifferently, as if they were waiting for Yunchu to give them an explanation.

"Why didn't you come yesterday?" Yun Chu asked with a smile while sitting on the horse.

"I have arrested him since yesterday morning, why didn't you come then?" Yun Chu started to ask again.

Lu Ting got out from the crowd, looked at Yun Chu and said calmly: "Since ancient times, you can't punish a doctor, and you can't show courtesy to a common man. You have done something wrong."

Yun Chu said: "Punishment does not go up to a doctor, which means that a doctor knows the etiquette, and only needs to use the etiquette to supervise the doctor, and the doctor will also abide by the restraint of the etiquette, and will never break the law.

Cui Mian is not a doctor, but a leader in white clothes. Why can't he be bound by the law? "

Lu Ting frowned and said, "You make the old man and others extremely uneasy."

Yun Chu looked at Lu Ting and said, "Did you break the law?"

Lu Ting waved his sleeves angrily and stopped talking.

He ignored Yunchu, Yunchu naturally didn't have the extra mood to pay attention to him, he just set his eyes on Cui Zhuan's corpse, because he had died overnight, therefore, his beautiful face had already started to turn black, and there were also many flies Flying around his nose and mouth.

Yunchu said to Cui Mian: "Did you kill him?"

Cui Mian let the doctor pour antiseptic poison on his hand to clean the wound. He didn't seem to feel the pain. He looked up at Yun Chu and said, "I didn't kill him, he committed suicide."

Yun Chu laughed and said, "Why did he commit suicide?"

Cui Mian said lifelessly: "Naturally, it's because of excessive shame."

Yun Chu thought for a while and said, "16 yuan, bought my house, and I will keep you safe."

Cui Mian smiled mockingly, and said to Yunchu, "You overestimate your strength too much."

Yun Chu looked at the nobles in front of him and said with a smile, "16 yuan will buy my house, and I will keep you safe."

Lu Ting said indifferently: "Your house is too expensive."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "It's not expensive at all, and the money includes your money to help the people of Chang'an build houses."

A good-looking middle-aged man said: "What do we have to do with housing for the gangsters in Guizhou?"

"Emperor Taizong said: Water can carry a boat and overturn it. You are nothing if you are out of Guishou, rascals.

That's all for now, if you want to buy it, go to Master Liu, pay the money and wait for the house, if you don't want to buy it, you can continue to wait.

The people of Chang'an have been suffering from high grain prices recently. Fortunately, there are still some grains in the two counties of Chang'an, which can appease the people.

When the government's food reserves are exhausted, the common people will have to find their own way if they want to eat again. "

Lu Ting's eyes widened, and he asked in the deepest voice, "What are you going to do?"

Yun Chu said indifferently: "Just tell the truth."

As soon as he finished speaking, he saw Mr. Liu running out of the yamen, grabbing the reins of Yunchu's horse and saying, "Your Majesty, the warehouse is on fire."

Yun Chu indifferently turned his gaze to the west of Chang'an City, only to see that there was a large cloud of thick smoke rising there...

Yunchu said to Lu Ting: "The 36 warehouses in Wannian County are really clean after being burned by you people."

Lu Ting said angrily: "Your heart is so poisonous, which one burned your righteous warehouse in Wannian County?
Yunchu, what are you doing? "

Yun Chu did not answer Lu Ting's words, but said to Mr. Liu: "Close the city gate, everyone stays in Chang'an City, so as not to be taken advantage of by thieves."

Master Liu agreed and left in a hurry.

After a while, the bells in Chang'an City rang anxiously, which was the warning signal to close the city gate.

Lu Ting's eyes were about to burst, he grabbed the reins of Yunchu's war horse and said, "Okay, I will pay another 16 guan to buy your house."

Yun Chu said indifferently: "You heard it wrong, it is 20 guan. Besides, you have already bought one set, so you are not eligible to buy the second set."

Lu Ting looked at Yunchu in disbelief, and backed away again and again.

Cui Mian was not afraid at all, and forced himself to sit up with the shackle on his shoulders and said, "If there is chaos in Chang'an, you, Yunchu, will be the first to be beheaded by His Majesty."

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "I have asked people, as long as Chang'an is not in great chaos, the thieves have not stormed the imperial city, the palace city, have not hurt the emperor's relatives, and the chaos does not exceed three days, I will be exiled to Lingnan at most. After two years of pardon and returning to Chang'an, that's all."

Cui Mian sneered, "Do you believe it?"

Yun Chu nodded and said: "I naturally believe that, since I became an official, I have always believed, and I believe that until now, there has never been a slight mistake.

Even if the end of a certain family is different from what I expected, it doesn't matter, I have enjoyed the glory and wealth for more than ten years, and it is not wrong to lose a head.

Say it again, do you want a house of 20 yuan?

You bastards are crazy compared to a certain family. A certain family has tied their heads around their waists and fought bloody battles since they were 13 years old. Compared with a certain family, you are also worthy? "

As Yunchu was talking, he drew out the horizontal knife at his waist and pointed at the wealthy families and nobles who were all over the place, saying: "Three days, within three days, you must buy the house of a certain family, otherwise, after three days, you will be killed." Don't blame me for being cruel."

After he finished speaking, he said to the County Captain Zhang Jia irritably, "Bang the war drum for me, and gather the people outside the city and the government soldiers inside the city. All must gather and prepare for battle!"

After Zhang Jia ran to beat the drum in a frenzy, Yun Chu glanced at the crowd in front of him again, and said coldly: "Three days, only three days!"

This time, Yunchu didn't continue to speak, and rode straight into the county government office on a bay red horse, leaving all the nobles in the city behind.

Immediately, the gate of the county government closed with a bang.

After waking up, Lu Ting came to the gate in a panic, slammed the gate loudly, and shouted loudly: "Your Majesty, think twice, you Lord, think twice."

Master Liu held Yunchu's teapot with both hands, pointed to the outside of the gate and said, "Your Majesty, will they submit?"

Yun Chu took a sip of tea and said, "They can ambush and kill officials in Luoyang City, causing chaos, and even sending assassins to raid the East Palace. Why can't we create some incidents in Chang'an to achieve our goals?"

Master Liu was surprised: "Is it really possible?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Don't forget who we are, we are officials, and the world of Tang Dynasty is managed by us. We are the ones who have the final say.

Do you think white clothes can really be proud of princes?
When His Majesty is willing, there are no taboos, and when His Majesty is unwilling, whoever is proud will die. "

After hearing Yunchu's words, Master Liu really didn't know what to say. No matter how rich his imagination was, he couldn't have imagined that the county magistrate would do such a thing of forced buying and selling.

The ringing of the bell on the bell tower proves that Chang'an City has entered a curfew state. The city gates will be closed and the gaps will be blocked. People from the Jinwu Guard and bad people will take to the streets and start to drive the people back to the city.

The entire city of Chang'an will be under curfew.

At this moment, thick smoke billowed from the location of the Yicang outside the city, and flames billowed.

When Yun Chu returned to the county government hall, Liu Rengui was wearing armor and sitting in the center, Wen Wen and Di Renjie were guarding the two sides, with the same dignified expressions.

Right under their heads, the generals of the Sixteenth Guards and the secret spies of the Baiqi Division are all missing.

What surprised Yunchu the most was Li Ji, who was also wearing that old battle armor and sitting on a chair with a sheathed sword.

Seeing Yunchu coming in, he said in a deep voice, "You still have three days. If you fail to achieve your goal after three days, the old man will kill you with his own hands."

Yun Chu walked into the lobby with the teapot in one hand, looked around and said, "Are you also here to kill me?"

Li Jidao: "Being reckless, old man, as the Minister of Gu Ming appointed by the late emperor, can't I kill you?"

Yun Chu smiled and said: "Mr. Li, never mention the words Minister Gu Ming again. When His Majesty ascended the throne at the age of 21, talking about it was still useful. Now, don't forget how the Changsun family was wiped out."

Li Ji sighed and said, "Being so reckless, Yunchu, who gave you such courage?"

Yun Chu smiled and said, "Of course it's His Majesty."

Li Ji was stunned for a moment, then immediately spread his hands and said, "Where is the edict?"

Yun Chu shook his head and said, "There is no edict."

Li Ji said angrily: "Where is the general, take down Yunchu!"

When all the generals in the hall looked at each other and didn't know what to do, Liu Rengui said softly: "Duke Ying calm down."

Li Ji turned his head to look at Liu Ren's orbit: "Are you still going to cover up Yunchu?"

Liu Ren tracked: "Elder Ying is old, why don't you go home and rest, why bother to wade into this muddy water again?"

Seeing that the generals became quiet again, Li Ji said, "I'm old after all, no one takes my words seriously anymore."

Ruan Wen came out and cupped his hands at Li Ji: "Why bother, Mr. Ying."

Li Ji ignored Wen Rou, and turned to Liu Ren: "You are staying behind in Xijing, once there is chaos in Chang'an, how will you explain to His Majesty?"

Liu Rengui said with a smile: "Chang'an blocked a storm that swept through the Tang Dynasty with the power of a city. Compared with the whole world, this kind of controllable chaos in Chang'an is acceptable to the old man.

Lord Ying, the people in this hall are all trusted by His Majesty, and they are also a group of courtiers who are only loyal to His Majesty.

You ask them, who does not have the right to directly give the secret report to His Majesty? His Majesty knows the situation in Chang'an very well these days. So far, Luoyang has not sent a special envoy, nor has he come to give clear instructions. .

Therefore, as long as what we do is beneficial to His Majesty and the country, His Majesty will naturally stand still.

If someone here makes a mistake, the old man thinks that the person holding His Majesty's will will naturally appear. "

Li Ji stood up, put the sword in his hand on Liu Rengui's desk and said, "In that case, please take back this sword bestowed by the late emperor."

Liu Rengui didn't show any politeness, he grabbed the sword with both hands and handed it to Jiang Tong, the leader of the Chang'an Baiqi Division, and said, "Please keep this sword safe by Governor Jiang, and we will see how to deal with it after I tell His Majesty."

Li Ji glanced sadly at the sword put away by Jiang Tong, sighed and prepared to leave Wannian County Government.

It was at this time that Yun Chu said sadly: "Grandfather Ying had better go through the back door of the county government, as there are many people at the front door."

　see you tomorrow
