People in the early Tang Dynasty: I compete with Wu Zhao for the throne

Chapter 298 North Gate Bachelor, Queen's Eyeliner

The Liu family is the biggest eyeliner of the Tianyin sect in Dongyang. They know the true foundation of the major families the most clearly, and they are also the most correct.

Hearing Li Xuan's question, Du Bixing was surprised at the side, and subconsciously asked: "The records on Hucao's file are messed up, but the prince wants to hand over all these things to Gu Xiancheng and the others?"

"Not in a hurry." Li Xuan shook his head, and said indifferently: "Let's see what Hucao's side is sorting out; at this moment, Hucao's side is already communicating with each family in Dongyang, check and copy them. Compared with the records of the Liu family, if the difference is not big, then it’s fine, so if the difference is big, then don’t blame me for killing a group of people.”

Du Bixing's expression changed slightly, and he couldn't help but said: "My lord..."

Li Xuan waved his hand directly, and said: "Although Hu Cao has gotten rid of the influence of Huang Ziming and Li Dingyi, they have been in close contact with Dongyang families for many years. If there is no problem with the summer tax this time, these people must Clean, at least for now, but if they don't want to clean up, then don't blame me for cleaning up."

Li Xuan turned around and looked at Liu Ji, his expression softened all of a sudden, and then he said: "Captain, didn't you say that your family and Mr. Liu's family from Zhongshushe are Lianzong, so you won't talk about it with empty teeth." Tell me, if you have any letters or something, you might as well take this king to see. This time, this king can let you choose a group of people, and if you don’t kill them, I will write a letter to ask your majesty to confiscate them into the Nanchang palace as slaves. "

With the serious crime of treason committed by the Liu family, even if his family's servants survived by chance, they might escape exile and relegation to the Jiaofang Secretary.

If they were not slaves in Nanchang Palace, at least Li Xuan would take care of them more.

Li Xuanruo said meaningfully: "In this family, the captain always has a few people other than his son who don't want him to die, right?"

Liu Ji's complexion could not help but slightly changed, he hesitated for a while, and finally asked, "This time, can the old man really choose?"

"Of course, the lieutenant should know how to measure it. If it is an important person, the lieutenant can only choose two less people. If it is not important, I don't mind the lieutenant choosing a few more?" Li Xuan's gaze Subconsciously swept over Du Bixing's body on one side, and passed by in a flash.

The corner of Liu Ji's mouth twitched involuntarily, and finally, he nodded and said, "Yes!"

"Then read the letters left in your family. To be honest, I am really curious. How did your Dongyang Liu family get connected with the famous Beimen scholar's family?" Li Xuan's face was full of amused, but in There was a coldness in the depths of his eyes.

Although he had previously denied the relationship between Liu's family and Liu Yi's family on various occasions, it was more to appease people's hearts.

In fact, in the bottom of Li Xuan's heart, he really hoped to see some evidence that the Liu family was really related to Liu Yi's family.

As for how to operate these things after finding them, that is another consideration.

"My lord, please come to the study!" Du Bixing stretched out his hand slightly, making a gesture of invitation.

Li Xuan went out first, Liu Ji immediately followed, and only Wang Bo and Du Bixing were left in the room.

At this time, Du Bixing stopped what he was doing, looked at Wang Bo, and said, "This time, my lord, I'm afraid I'm going to poke a big hornet's nest!"

Wang Bo shook his head slightly, looked at Du Bixing and said: "Actually, what the prince said is not bad. Some things, once the line is crossed, neither the sage nor the queen may allow it."

"Saints and queens!" Du Bixing sighed heavily, his tone full of heaviness and complexity.

Wang Bo didn't say much, and he didn't know the current situation of the Du family.

Du Shenyan's future is bumpy now, and Du Bixing had already left the officialdom due to illness many years ago.

All this is related to the involvement of Du Ruhui's son Du He in Li Chengqian's rebellion case.

Li Zhi came to power after the downfall of Li Chengqian. As for those cronies of Li Chengqian back then, unless they were talented, he would seldom be appointed again.

The Jingzhao Du family, even Du Ruhui's younger brother Du Chuke, was not demoted from the Minister of Industry to the county magistrate of Qianhua in the end, and finally died in office.

Although Du Shenyan and Du Bixing are not direct descendants of the Jingzhao Du family, they have been implicated a lot.

What's more, at this moment, too many people don't want to see these fallen families make a comeback.

……

In the study room, Li Xuan asked everyone to leave and ordered two thousand bull guards to stand guard at the door. Then Liu Ji walked to the basement in the center of the room and buckled a floor tile vigorously, revealing a deep brown wooden box immediately inside.

Previously, before Li Xuan and Liu Ji came back here, Wang Bo, Du Bixing and others had searched the place comprehensively, but unfortunately, they didn't gain much.

It cannot be said that there are not many gains, but there are very few satisfactory gains.

Liu Ji, as the master of the entire Liu family, who knows how many hands and feet he has done in this village over the years, and only he knows where some core secrets are hidden.

Liu Ji carefully took out a letter from the box, then turned around, put the box on the table on one side, then turned around, and handed the envelope.

"It turns out that the lieutenant also knows the history of Jing Ke's assassination of the King of Qin." Li Xuan teased casually, then his face became serious, took the envelope, and began to examine it.

Letter covers, wax seals, stamps, stationery...

Li Xuan checked every detail very carefully, but when he saw the beginning of this letter, he couldn't help frowning: "Uncle, the person who wrote this letter to you is the North Gate scholar Liu son of the Lord?"

"It's his family's Silang, Liu Shenming." Liu Ji looked at Li Xuan seriously, and said in a deep voice: "The next meeting, although it is his family's Silang, but before Lianzong, Liu Silang also took out Liu She People wrote him a letter, saying that he promised Lianzong..."

"Then what about that letter?" Li Xuan looked straight at Liu Ji, and pointed out the crux of the matter in one sentence.

Liu Ji's face couldn't help changing slightly, but he then said: "The letter was written by Mr. Liu to Liu Silang, so naturally it is in Liu Silang's hands..."

"Mr. Liu gave that Liu Silang a large amount of money in the meantime." Li Xuan looked at Liu Ji with a half-smile, and he had roughly guessed what it was.

Maybe Liu Ji met a liar, a person who knew the details of Liu Yi's family and the background of the family.

Although this sounds unbelievable, in Luoyang and Chang'an, such people have never been in the minority.

"My lord's words are wrong. I did give a large sum of gold and silver, but if you calculate it carefully, it is not much, and when I planned to send more gold and silver, it was directly rejected by Liu Jiashilang. He even asked me not to spread the news about the Lianzong with Liu Gong..." Liu Ji shook his head with a little pity, and said: "It's a pity that Hao Canjun was stalking me at that time, so I had to let the wind go... Originally, this hole card, It is intended to be used in the future."

Liu Ji is not optimistic about the Tianyin Sect's uprising, so it's not surprising that they have made plans in advance.

"Hasn't the captain ever thought about it? Isn't it because the captain is not allowed to spread the news, or even plan for the future?" Li Xuan couldn't help but feel a little funny. People like Liu Ji Characters will also fall for such things.

"My lord, do you really think that I haven't considered this?" Liu Ji looked at Li Xuan seriously.

Li Xuan was slightly taken aback, could it be that there is something else in it, his expression turned solemn, and he cupped his hands and said, "I also ask the captain for advice."

"I don't dare to advise, in fact, all the strange things are in the letter in the hands of the prince, please read it carefully." Liu Ji's eyes fell on the letter in Li Xuan's hand.

Li Xuan nodded with a calm expression. I am afraid that the letter that can make Liu Ji dispel all doubts is really somewhat mysterious.

Li Xuan quickly read it line by line.

At the beginning, the letter was just a simple greeting, but in the middle, the words changed.

The other party began to care about the customs of Dongyang, the movements of the Dongyang aristocratic family, and even the movements of the Wuzhou aristocratic family and Wuzhou officialdom.

It seemed that the real purpose of the person who wrote the letter was not with Liu Ji at all, but he just wanted to learn about the situation in Wuzhou through Liu Ji.

"What a Beimen scholar!" Li Xuan couldn't help blurting out a word.

What kind of Lianzong is this? This is obviously a chess piece arranged by Liu Yizhi in Dongyang to spy on the situation.

"There are so many people staring at Dongyang!" Li Xuan's eyes narrowed slightly, and a trace of coldness flashed across.

Even Li Xuan and Duan Baoxuan couldn't hide the change that happened in Dongyang, so how could they hide it from the court's dukes.

Beimen bachelor, counselor for government affairs, and sharing the power of the prime minister are not empty words.

Even behind them, standing is the Queen of Heaven Wu Yan.

If it is said that Wu Yan is more attentive than Li Zhi when it comes to targeting Tianyin Sect.

This is the case in Dongyang, so is there a similar arrangement in Wuzhou City, Hangzhou, and other places in Yuezhou?

……

Li Xuan put the letter back. "With this letter, Young Master Ling can indeed go to Shendu and Xijing, and get an official position."

Liu Ji took a step forward at this time, and asked solemnly, "I don't know how the prince plans to deal with this letter?"

"With the letter and the secret book, this king will write a letter to His Majesty. Xueshi Liu is well-intentioned, but unfortunately he is blind. He said that the chess piece he borrowed is actually the opponent's person." Li Xuan shook his head and looked at Liu A few said: "You don't know much about His Majesty's behavior style. His Majesty will not blame things like this, but he will tell this matter like a joke to the Queen of Heaven, or the Crown Prince, to the Queen of Heaven. The King of England and the King of Prime Minister listen, of course, there must be a prime minister..."

"I suggest that the prince should not do this. The prince may take this letter to the capital of God, and at a critical moment, hand it over to Xueshi Liu. Maybe it can save the prince's life in a critical moment." Liu Ji said desperately. Staring at Li Xuan, a trace of mystery flashed in his eyes.

"To be honest, your suggestion is very good and you know the court situation very well, but firstly, it does not conform to this king's style of conduct, and secondly, this letter, since this king set foot in your mansion, it has been It has completely lost its effect." Li Xuan smiled lightly.

Liu Ji didn't know at all that the way this matter brought Li Xuan the most help was to send the letter directly to the capital of God, and to the emperor.

The remaining emperors will naturally do it.

Controlling the emperor's mind is the best way to make money in this world.

Far more than anything else.
