A Good Landlord in the Tang Dynasty: Emperor Yuan Cong

Chapter 1075 Shengtian Banzi
"It's true, it's aroused, and everyone in the city knows about it."

Li Yifu despises Zhang Liang very much. He once worshiped the prime minister and is now the governor of Xiangzhou. He is a real meritorious official. It is extraordinary that a farmer from the Central Plains can become a founding official. Not allowed. But such an outstanding person turned out to be so hard on the five surnames.

Although Li Yifu himself also licked Zhao Jun Li, he only recognized Li Mengtang as his uncle, Li Anqi as his brother, and Li Baiyao as his adoptive father. However, Zhang Liang divorced his first wife and married Zhao Jun Li in order to lick Zhao Jun Li. I can barely put it into words,

It was okay for Mrs. Li to be a widow. In the early Tang Dynasty, there was not much discrimination against widows. But the problem is that Mr. Li's reputation is too bad and he is a famous rag.

It would be okay if Zhang Liang could control her after marrying this Li family.

But it happened that Zhang Liang married the Li family and treated her as an ancestor. He loved and feared her, and allowed the Li family to do more and more mischief.

"Teacher may not know something. Zhang Liang has adopted many adopted sons in recent years and live directly in Zhang Liang's house. These adopted sons were all adopted by Mr. Li for Zhang Liang, and it is said that most of them have had an affair with Mr. Li."

Not only did Li go out to attract bees and butterflies, but she also openly brought these faces home, and even asked Zhang Liang to adopt him as his adopted son and stay in the house.

And Zhang Liang really came to accept them one by one, and adopted them all as adopted sons.

He is called adopted son, which means he is actually his brother-in-law.

Later, he surrendered to the Tang Dynasty. He repeatedly lost cities and territory, and was demoted one after another. Finally, he entered the Qin Palace and worked for Li Shimin. He no longer led troops to fight, but was responsible for recruiting heroes from Guandong, contacting heroes from all walks of life, and engaging in intelligence work. good performance.

Use war to promote talks.

Of course, Li Yifu also knows that this alone may not be able to defeat Zhang Liang, but Zhang Liang will also become disgraced.
"I'll leave this matter to you." Wu Huaiyu patted Li Yifu on the shoulder. He knew that this young man was very ambitious, but ambition was not entirely a bad thing.

Later, he gained more and more trust from Li Shimin and was regarded as his true confidant.

It has been very popular since the Wei and Jin Dynasties for military commanders to raise adopted sons and fake sons. Which military commander doesn’t raise a few? But if you raise seven, eight or ten, it will be fine.
If you support three to five hundred, that's a bit too much.

However, although Zhang Liang became a duke after the Xuanwu Gate Incident, his disadvantages were also obvious. First of all, he lacked a foundation. His ancestors were poor peasants for eight generations, and even his relatives and friends were all farmers. Even if he became a duke, he would not even be able to use it. Not even friends or relatives.

Spreading scandals is a cruel move.

"You have five hundred righteous sons. What will you do if you raise this generation? You are about to turn your back on me!"

"That's no problem." Li Yifu was very smart. He guessed what Wu Huaiyu was going to do. The guy rolled his eyes and said, "The student has a suggestion. You can take care of it. While collecting various information about Zhang Liang, you can also secretly Spread various scandals about Zhang Li’s sexual activities,

Later, when the world was in chaos at the end of the Sui Dynasty, young Zhang Liang joined the rebel army and joined Wagang, under Li Ji's command. It's a pity that he only knows how to farm and not fight, so he was not allowed to be reused by Li Jizhai and others. Later, Li Mi came to Wagang, and he was not taken seriously at first. Zhang Liang got to the position by informing Li Mi and betraying his former teammates.

Li Yifu has no good impression of the Li family of Zhaojun.

"It is said that Zhang Liang's adopted son is five hundred." Li Yifu said.

Zhang Liang, unlike Qin Qiong or Liu Dewei, could allow the emperor to directly give the clan head the county chief as his second wife.

It can be called the most powerful person in the world.

The blade turned,
No more speculation about Li's prostitution,

This kind of person is actually quite scary.

Furthermore, his status among the new rich is rather embarrassing. He does not have excellent military exploits like Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, or even old Wagang such as Li Ji, Guo Xiaoke, etc. He can only lose in battles and relies on intelligence. This is also Let him be despised by everyone,
Zhang Liang finally chose to kneel down and lick Zhaojun Li's family, which was also a helpless move.

Zhang Liang's head was green, but he was very tolerant.

"You are also the Li family of Zhao County. You can help me secretly collect some information about Zhang Liang, every bit of it."

"There are rumors that Zhang Li has five hundred lovers, and Zhang Liang adopted him as his adopted son. This is a big deal."

Li Yifu also came from a humble background. He relied not only on his intelligence, but also on his ability to get to where he is today.
Outside, Li Yi's mansion is quite prosperous, with a student of Wu Huaiyu, son-in-law of the warrior Yu, and son of Zhaojun Li's family. But he himself also knows that although he is shy and even borrows a bit of the Wu family's influence to get Zhaojun Li to accept him, he is still considered a squeeze. Although he entered the scholar family, in fact, the scholar clans such as Zhaojun Li and other five surnames and seven families did not really admit that he was a son of the five surnames.

This kind of scandal has always been the most popular among the people and can spread quickly. "

"Knock and knock first,"

He didn't have a good choice. He wanted to marry someone else except Mrs. Li from Broken Shoes, but Mrs. Li from Zhaojun didn't want to either.

This matter was actually an open secret, but Zhang Liang seemed to be kept in the dark.

Although Zhang Liang pretended not to know about Li's lewd behavior, if the news spread too much, he would have to face it. Then Zhaojun Li, Zhang Liang, and Li would all have to face it.

Wu Huaiyu couldn't help but shake his head. Zhang Liang's background was not as good as Ma Zhou's. Ma Zhou was from a poor family, but he also came from a scholar's background. But Zhang Liang comes from a poor family. Eight generations of his ancestors have been poor farmers. He also made a living by farming when he was young.

Wu Huaiyu wanted to chat with Zhang Liang, but there was no rush. There were some things he had to do before the chat. He wanted to make Zhang Liang understand who he was going against, and let him understand the serious consequences of doing the right thing.

Even though he was later caught by Li Yuanji, he took all the blame and refused to reveal any involvement of Li Shimin despite being tortured severely.

First spread the scandal about Li's family. This kind of melon is the favorite of the people in Chang'an. It can spread quickly and make this matter a hot topic. Then we will decide the right time.

The warrior Xun was once the richest man in Hedong. He entered the pass from the dragon and made great achievements. The emperor came forward, but he could only help him marry the over forty old girl of the Hongnong Yang family.

"Teacher wants to touch Zhang Liang?"

This kind of people,

He smiled and said to Wu Huaiyu, "Teacher, do you still remember when Hou Junji falsely accused the teacher and raised three thousand adopted sons with the intention of treason?"

Even if Cheng Yaojin had a greater reputation for meritorious service and a stronger Cheng family background than him, he could still only marry the widow of the Cui family of Qinghe.

Zhang Shenji was just one of Li's lovers, and of course he was also one of Zhang Liang's adopted sons.

Especially Zhang Liang's identity. He once worshiped the prime minister, served as a censor, and now he is the chief of the governor's office of Xiangzhou. He actually presides over the affairs of the governor's office and serves as the governor of Xiangzhou.

Instead, he launched an attack on Zhang Liangyi's five hundred children.

It was precisely because of this awakening that Zhang Liang married Mrs. Li regardless of his reputation. After marriage, Mrs. Li did not change his promiscuous behavior, so Zhang Liang could only endure it. He could not divorce Mrs. Li, and he could not deal with Mrs. Li. Don't dare.

For such an important minister, you have upheld five hundred righteousnesses. Isn't it worthy of suspicion to say that you are treason?

Of course, Li Yifu's purpose is not just this.

Therefore, Wu Huaiyu found him, knowing that if this happened, it would be detrimental to the Li family of Zhao County and would bring bad reputation, but he was still happy to make suggestions and even act as the main force.

Although Li Yifu is young, he has long understood that blindly kneeling and licking will not bring good results. What you need to do is to show your strength so that you can be respected.

So this time, not only will he not defend Zhao Jun Li, but he will also be harsh, so that Zhao Jun Li will take him seriously in the future.

Wu Huaiyu also knew this very well, so he left the matter to him with confidence.

After staying in the East Palace for a while, I went to see the old subordinates from various temple bureaus under the East Palace. He is now the prince Zhan Shi.

However, this is a part-time job, and the specific matters are handled by Zhan Shifu Cheng and the Chief Registrar.

after dinner,
Huaiyu said, "I'll go to Madam's house tonight."

"Aren't you going to turn over the cards?"

"I have something to talk to you about." "If I have something to do, we can't talk for long, so we won't delay." Xuan Fu said with a smile.

"Ma'am, are you tired of me?"

Fan Xuanfu laughed and said he was afraid that the other sisters would feel unfair.

Of course, Li Sanniang and others said that it was okay. Even if the lady wanted to occupy the house for a few more days, it was perfectly natural and the concubines could not say anything. Moreover, it was Alang who took the initiative to go to the Lady's Court today, so everyone had nothing to say.

They guessed that there was something important that they wanted to talk about alone at night.

Xuan Fu is also quite curious.
The tea party didn't last long after dinner, so I went back to wash up. If Alang was coming, he would have to be clean and dry, and put on a beautiful and attractive nightgown. The baby would also have to be taken care of by the nannies early. go.

When Wu Huaiyu returned from chatting with Sanniang and the others in the restaurant, Fan Xuanfu had already tidied up beautifully and his hair had been washed.

You can smell a nice aroma as soon as you enter the bedroom.

"I'm going to wash up too."

Washing up is much simpler for Wu Huaiyu. There is a bath tub at home, and hot water is always ready. He can simply soak and rinse.

Put on the comfortable white cloth pajamas prepared by your maid,
After lifting the quilt and lying down, Fan Xuanfu leaned forward.

"Let's get down to business,"

"Xue Wanche knows that you assassinated him. You should be careful when you go out recently. I have sent additional personnel to protect you, but you should also be careful yourself. I'm afraid that guy will cause chaos."

Under normal circumstances, even if Xue Wanche knew about this, he would not dare to take revenge casually, but the Xue brothers are all a little crazy.

No one can guarantee that he will not act recklessly.

If a desperate rogue is arranged, it will be too late to regret it.

"After so many years, why do you know now?" Fan Xuanfu didn't panic at all when he heard that the matter was revealed.
"Actually, His Majesty has known about this matter for a long time. He mentioned it to me before. His Majesty has no intention of pursuing it, so we just need to prevent Xue Wanche from retaliating secretly." Wu Huaiyu patted her.

"I'm not worried about Xue Wanche's revenge. He must be so courageous." Princess Xue Wancheshang became the Prince-in-law and Commander-in-Chief.

But the princess recently took advantage of His Majesty's opportunity to summon Xue Wanche and secretly looked at him behind the curtain. Afterwards, she kept saying that Xue Wanche was ugly, stupid and old. She cried and told the emperor that she did not want to marry Xue Wanche and wanted to find another consort.

He also said that if he wants to marry, he will marry Erlang like you. "

Wu Huaiyu was shot while lying down.
Xue Wanche was several years older than the emperor. He was now in his early forties. He had also been married long ago and had many children. Before he defeated Tuyuhun, Xue Wanche even made one of his sons a county marquis due to his merits.

Princess Danyang is the fifteenth daughter of Li Yuan.
The emperor promised this sister to Xue Wanche as a sequel, and naturally he also intended to win over Xue Wanche, a fierce general, and the Xue family.

After the princess met him, she said that Xue was stupid, old and ugly, and refused to marry again, which made Li Shimin very irritable and helpless. The princess said that if she wanted to marry, she would marry Wu Erlang. Unexpectedly, this word spread out, and many noble ladies in Chang'an knew about it.

Fan Xuanfu already knows it,
Regarding Xue Wanche, Fan Xuanfu actually gave up after the assassination. She assassinated Xue to avenge her dead fiancé. Regardless of success or failure, if she assassinated him, it would be considered an end to the relationship.

She told Wu Huaiyu the same thing at the beginning, so she never mentioned it again. Even if Huaiyu rose to prominence, she never said she wanted Huaiyu to take revenge on Xue.

Things were almost forgotten and brought up again.

"Be more careful yourself and don't worry about anything else." Wu Huaiyu comforted his wife.

Find an opportunity and maybe have a frank interview with Xue Wanche. It would be best if you can turn the conflict into friendship. But if that doesn't work, if Xue Wanche wants to do it, then just do it.

To be honest, Wu Huaiyu is not afraid of the Xue brothers.

The next day, Wu Huaiyu asked someone to send a name card to Xue Wanche, and wanted to make an appointment to visit him, but he was rejected.

Even the two cartloads of gifts sent were returned together.

Xue Wanche was very disrespectful.

Wu Huaiyu was still patient and sent two more famous gifts and two more gifts. He also added gifts, which were very thick.

Xue Wanche still refused.

In this case, Wu Huaiyu stopped trying to please him.

The long-lost sun finally came out,

This sudden late-spring cold disaster is finally coming to an end.
Changsun Wuji also had to embark on his way to Luoyang to take up his post. Wu Huaiyu went to Baqiao to say goodbye.

The willow trees next to the post house originally had new buds, but they were all bald due to the freeze.
Wu Huaiyu could only break a few dry branches and send them to his uncle.

The eldest grandson looked at Wu Huaiyu and was filled with emotion.

He had been staying in Chang'an all these years, just waiting for a return to the prime minister, but he couldn't wait and waited. Wu Huaiyu didn't want to stay in Chang'an, but the emperor let him stay instead.

On the same day, both of them were awarded the title of Commander-in-Chief, but now it is him who is responsible for everything, and he is the only one who leaves the capital to take up his post.

Wu Huaiyu wrote a farewell poem,

Changsun Wuji patted Huaiyu's arm and said, "Thank you so much, Prime Minister Wu, for sending me a poem."

"It should be,"

"Changsun Gong, there is something I have to remind you."

Changsun Wuji saw his face so serious and asked, "What's the matter?"

"When the King of Wei stayed in Beijing, many people started to have evil thoughts again. Now the undercurrent is surging. Many people are communicating and colluding in secret. A network is forming,"

"Be specific." Changsun Wuji also became serious.

"Hou Junji, Zhang Liang, Xue Wanche, Xue Wanjun, as well as Wei Ting and Du Chuke, they secretly formed a clique to support the king of Wei,"

Changsun Wuji looked ugly and said bitterly, "These guys are so audacious, Prime Minister Wu, we must stop them."

"I know that Mr. Changsun is the prince's biological uncle, and I am the prince's teacher. Now that Queen Wende is gone, we have even more responsibility to protect His Highness the prince.

I will protect the prince, but I am alone and I need Duke Changsun to fully support me. We cannot be careless in this battle. "

"Don't worry, I will never allow these people to do this. I and Gao Pushe will take action," Changsun Wuji gritted his teeth. Although Li Tai is also his nephew, the Changsun family and the Gao family have fully supported the prince these years. Yes, where can there be any more nonsense?

"The Xue brothers should try to win over each other, but these two brothers are quite crazy," Wu Huaiyu said.

Changsun Wuji snorted disdainfully, "Crazy? Then suppress all his crazy arrogance first. When he stops being crazy, then reach out and pull them together. If he gets crazy again, kill them completely. The remnants of the deposed prince." That’s all.”

Wu Huaiyu smiled and nodded.
