Early Tang Dynasty: forge ahead

Chapter 305: Rage and hijacking

Grandma Yang's attitude reached the ears of Jiao Rui, the steward, and Jiao Rui's already arrogant arrogance became even more arrogant, saying: "It's not that our Wu family doesn't abide by the laws of the country, it's because you and others are obviously acting for personal benefit and intending to ruin the reputation of our Wu family. Our Wu family will never let this happen. You're so stupid and you've got your way."

His words aroused applause from the whole hall, especially those who were favored by the military family.

The Wu family had no foundation in Chang'an. As a queen who was born as a concubine of the late emperor, although Empress Wu showed her talents as a queen by virtue of her own talents, not many people were willing to have in-depth contacts with the Wu family.

The Wu family also had no worthy person. The only talented person, He Lan Minzhi, was too young and had not yet reached the crown. He could only show favor to low-level subordinates and poor scholars.

As long as they are willing to praise the Wu family and say a few nice words to help the Wu family, the Wu family will be happy to lead them to play.

Li Zhi was not stingy about the rewards to the Wu family, and the Wu family was not stingy about spending money in order to fight for their lives.

Faced with the current situation, these subordinate officials and scholars who had taken over the Wu family naturally stood up one after another to express their positions and attitudes, and there was a steady response.

Jiao Rui even said proudly: "Let's go, let's see who dares to stop my Wu family!"

He waved his hand and led his servants forward.

Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi both had anxious looks in their eyes, but they refused to take a step back.

But the military princes behind the two were timid and eager to give in.

How could they, the Wu Hous, really dare to stand in the way of the Queen's mother and sister?

"What are you doing? What are you doing?"

Chen Qingsi shouted angrily and strode onto the stage.

He came directly between them, looked at Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi first, and shouted: "Who gave you the courage to act like this? Empress Wu's biological mother, His Majesty's personal first-class wife, can't you be more tactful when performing official duties? Do you really regard Mrs. Rongguo as a sinner?"

Zhao Chiman said hurriedly: "I don't dare."

Chen Qingsi turned around, looked at the triumphant Jiao Rui, and said unceremoniously: "Who are you? A servant of the family, can you represent the Wu family? If you have the ability today, you can show me in front of me. ? Empress Wu is a virtuous, diligent and thrifty person, so why did she raise you guys who are just like you? Even the laws of the Tang Dynasty have been swallowed up by you? Are you used to being arrogant and domineering, or are you really harboring and conniving at thieves?"

He glanced at Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi behind him, then at the Wu family, and gave up the seats in the middle, shouting: "Come on, I will make way for you. Let me see, you are really right in this public place." The queen's family members are really going to force the government servants to take action."

"One is arrogant and the other is contemptuous of laws."

"I want to see how much the law of the Tang Dynasty is worth to you."

He was furious and acted like he was speaking out for justice.

There was silence for a moment.

Especially the Wu family, they were scolded bloody.

Dare to be angry but dare not speak.

The moment Chen Qingsi appeared, someone immediately called out his identity.

Although Chen Qingsi lived in Chang'an for a short time, almost no one had heard of his name.

Especially among subordinate officials and scholars, Chen Qingsi is like an idol.

Therefore, as soon as he appeared, his identity was known to everyone in the Wu family.

They dared to be arrogant in front of Zhao Chiman, the county captain, and Wang Fangyi, the lieutenant general, but they did not dare to be arrogant in front of Chen Qingsi.

Moreover, the subordinate officials and scribes who had previously supported them also rebelled and sided with Chen Qingsi.

Invariably, they distanced themselves slightly from the Wu family.

Jiao Rui was sweating profusely and hurriedly explained in a low voice: "Chen Shilang, this... you have misunderstood. It's not that the old slave is using his power. It's because they have a feud with my Wu family and suspect that they are seeking revenge..." Chen Qingsi deliberately waited for him to finish his words. , just now he said angrily: "What's a festival? What's a public revenge for a private enemy? Whether it's a public revenge or a private revenge, you have to check it out to know. There's no investigation at all, and you can decide right and wrong based on just your thoughts? This kind of thing is for you, a domestic slave, in just one sentence It can be decided..."

Chen Qingsi still wanted to take advantage of the victory and pursue it.

A charming and charming person walked over gracefully.

This person has the same charming peach blossom eyes as Empress Wu, and her facial features are slightly inferior by three points, but the protrusion of the front and the back are curved, and she is even better in plumpness.

You don’t need to think about Chen Qingsi to know who Wu Shun is coming!

Empress Wu's eldest sister, a Korean lady who also had an affair with Li Zhi.

I just don’t know if she and Li Zhi have ever slept together.

"Master Chen, please don't get angry..."

Wu Shun came slowly, glared at Jiao Rui angrily, and said, "Go aside!"

After driving away the person who took the blame, Wu Shunying said: "It's because we, the women, are not strict in discipline and the servants are ignorant, which makes Chen Shilang laugh. Chen Shilang is right, everything should be based on the law. Whether it is or not, we have to investigate to find out.”

She looked at Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi and said, "Go and investigate carefully. There is really a thief. My lady apologizes to you. If there is no trace of the thief, don't blame me for pursuing it to the end."

When she said this, there was a hint of chill in her charming eyes.

Whether it was intentional or not, she felt that Chen Qingsi's scolding of Jiao Rui covered their entire Wu family and scolded them all, but she couldn't catch it herself and could only hold in her anger.

Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi looked at each other and immediately walked towards the Wu family.

With Wu Shun's nod, everyone in the Wu family cooperated.

Wu Shun now felt a little displeased with Chen Qingsi next to him, but as a mother, she had to stand aside and make fun of one of the best men of this era.

Suddenly, the Wu family and the group were in a turmoil, and a cry of surprise came.

An old woman shouted in horror: "Minyue, what are you doing? Let Minyue go..."

Wu Shun's expression suddenly changed and he ran towards the team.

Chen Qingsi reacted faster than her and came to the middle of the team ahead of him.

Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi were one step ahead of him, but they just didn't dare to step forward.

Chen Qingsi looked at the situation in front of her, and her heart sank slightly.

A servant of the Wu family is holding a teenage girl hostage...

The girl was carved from pink and jade like a beautiful girl in the sky, but she was being pinched by the Wu family servant at the back of her neck. Her big eyes were bright and full of tears, like two black grapes.

The servants of the Wu family looked at them fiercely and said, "Get out of the way, get out of my way, or I will strangle her to death!"

As he spoke, he also lifted the girl up.

Wu Shun was a woman who ran slowly. She had just come close at this moment. When she saw the scene in front of her, she almost fainted and shouted in horror: "Don't hurt my son!"

She shouted and pushed Zhao Chiman and Wang Fangyi, shouting: "Don't hurt my son, I will let you go."

The servant of the Wu family said: "Prepare some food and a horse for me. As soon as I leave the city, let this baby go immediately..."

He smiled a bit ferociously.
