Datang: The prince of salted fish was overheard by Li Er

Chapter 412 Old Cheng refuses to accept the big gift from Wang Gui

Hearing this, Wang Chongji also laughed and said, "Father, do you mean to use that thing?"

Wang Gui nodded and said, "It's been three years, and we're almost ready, let's order it."

However, regarding Wang Gui and Wang Chongji's words, Wang Gui's youngest son, Wang Jingzhi, was somewhat hesitant.

"Father, are we really going to do this?"

"Although we had some quarrels with King Yan before, they were all trivial matters."

"But this time, once we did it, there was no going back."

However, Wang Gui didn't care and said, "Nonsense, we're just taking back what belongs to us."

"It'll be all right."

"Even if something happens, we have a way to get out."

"If we don't make the first move this time, we'll probably just be exhausted!"

"I think other aristocratic families are probably not willing to stand by and watch."

"This time, it's best if we can abolish this little prince in one fell swoop!"

Compared with the unanimity in Wang's family, the controversy in Boling Cui's mansion is much bigger.

At this time, not only Cui Mingan was present, but also his cousin Cui Dunli from Zhongshushe and Cui Renshu, governor of Dingzhou, were also in the residence.

Cui Dunli said: "Just now, we have received news that the two manuscripts we are worried about have been handed over to Li You, and I am afraid that they will be widely circulated in a short time."

"If the Boling Cui family is really reduced to a third-rate family, how do you want us to meet our ancestors after we die!"

If Wang Gui only knew the contents of the clan chronicles roughly, the Boling Cui family already had a more detailed understanding of the clan chronicles.

Cui Dunli and Cen Wenwen have a good relationship, and have already learned a lot about it from Cen Wenwen.

The book hadn't been officially released before, and Boling Cui couldn't say anything, but was going to protest when it was released.

But now, with printing workshops all over the country, it is impossible to resist as in the past.

So after the fall of the court today, they gathered here with Cui Mingan to think of countermeasures together.

Unexpectedly, under the collective wisdom and efforts of everyone, they really came up with a compromise.

This method is to pour dirty water on Li You.

All along, it was because of Li You's surprise that they suffered a disadvantage in the game with Li Shimin.

Just like this time, Cui Mingan found out from various sources that the idea of ​​the clan chronicle came from Li You.

So this time, they decided to abolish Li Shimin's important flag first.

They wanted to use Li You's surprises to attack him.

"Cousin is really a brilliant move."

"Since the release of the clan annals is the general trend, we might as well draw the fire from the bottom of the pot and demonize the creator of the clan annals."

"In this way, even if he uses his ability to spread the clan annals, the people will definitely think that he is trying to deceive the public."

"Cesarean delivery, blood transfusion to save lives, turning stones into iron, making fire out of stones, all of these things are unimaginable."

"As long as we use rumors to spread first, there will naturally be panic."

"Afterwards, we only need people to misinterpret these two new books a little bit, and the people spontaneously resisted."

"Hehe, as long as we control the public opinion, I can see how His Majesty can turn the tide."

Cui Renshu immediately clapped his hands and agreed: "This strategy is very clever. We don't need to wait for them to make any moves at all. We can start to act later."

Before leaving, Cui Renshu asked again: "Should we tell other aristocratic families about this?"

"If the major families act together, the effect will definitely be better."

However, Cui Mingan and Cui Dunli shook their heads at the same time and said: "Once those aristocratic families hear the wind, they will naturally swarm towards them like sharks smelling a fishy smell. Why do we need to notify them?"

"And now we don't know which aristocratic families are really one-hearted with us, and it would be inappropriate to contact us rashly."

"If you really want to inform, please tell Da Sinong, Qinghe Cui and we are still a family no matter what."

The Da Si Nong that Cui Mingan said was the current Secretary of Si Nong Temple, Cui Shanwei.

After Dou Jing, the original great Si Nong, served as the governor of Xiazhou, guarding the border, and at the same time appointed Ning Shuo ambassador to be in charge of the defense of the northern border, Cui Shanwei, the original minister of Dali Temple, was transferred to Si Nong Temple.

This transfer order seems to be just a transfer at the same level, but because Sinong Temple is in charge of the country's agricultural affairs, its actual power is actually much greater, and Qinghe Cui has gained a lot of benefits from it.

Cui Renshu immediately understood the key point, nodded, and hurried out.

That night, the entire Chang'an had various reactions because of Li You's return, and not only Chang'an, but also the major families in the Central Plains also had different reactions because of Li You's return.

However, to Li You's surprise, it was Cheng Yaojin who came to the door early the next morning.

As soon as he entered the door, Cheng Yaojin started yelling.

"Yan Wang, this time you have to make the decision for Old Cheng!"

"Why didn't I have the part to fight the Turks last time, and I don't have the part to fight the Tuyuhun this time!"

"Did His Majesty decide that I, Old Cheng, can only deal with those savages!"

Li You quickly comforted him and said, "Duke Lu, is this your Majesty's trust in you?"

"So many generals have been sent out, but you are the only one who is stationed in the capital. This is an incomparable trust in you."

"Hey!" Cheng Yaojin also heaved a long sigh. He also understood the truth, but he still felt a little blocked in his heart, so he had no choice but to come to Li You to express his displeasure.

Li You patted him on the shoulder again and said, "Mr. Lu, actually staying in Chang'an is just as wonderful."

"If you feel bored, just follow me these few days and keep you from being bored."

When Cheng Yaojin heard that there was such a good thing, he agreed immediately.

But then he frowned: "King Yan, this old Cheng still has official duties. You also said that it is an important job to guard the Xuanwu Gate. Old Cheng will leave first, and come to see the prince after he has finished his job."

Looking at this upright and cute big man, Li You could only smile and nod, agreeing.

After sending Cheng Yaojin away, with the help of Xiaoying, Li You quietly changed his luggage and slipped out from the back door of the palace.

As soon as she got into the carriage, Xiao Ying asked inexplicably: "My lord, we had such a big commotion yesterday, what else is there to hide?"

"Besides, let's go find a King of Han. The King of Han was your friend in the first place, so there's nothing to hide."

The King of Han that Xiao Ying mentioned was Li Yuan's seventh son, Li Yuanchang.

Although Li Yuanchang wanted to call him uncle, Li Yuanchang was actually only two years older than Li You.

Li You patted her on the head casually and said, "Who said I was looking for the King of Han? This time we are going to the Palace of the King of Han, but we are not looking for him."

"Wait a minute and be smart, don't reveal your secrets."
