Crown Tang emperor

Talking about his old business, Guo Yuan regained his energy, and suddenly many ideas came to his mind to enrich the king's plan from the details.

The atmosphere of the discussion was very heated. Li Tong forgot that he was admonishing Guo Yuanzhen not to continue committing crimes just now, and Guo Yuanzhen didn't remember that he just said that he would definitely change his past, but he put a word that was neither embarrassing nor embarrassing. Fart, it can be seen that they are all people from the heart.

"Since it's going to be done, it can't be limited to Shiping County, it will look too weird."

After thinking for a while, Li Tong said: "Later, I will send someone to clean up several illegal rural households, and take the opportunity to eliminate them together. Shi Wei, you can rest at ease, and Guo Wei will take advantage of these few days to wander the countryside and identify the path. "

After Guo Yuanzhen heard the words, he patted his chest and assured him: "All the members of my retinue, I walked calmly and horizontally among the poor mountains and dangerous mountains in the middle of Sichuan, let alone the wide open fields in Guanzhong. Your Majesty will do it for me. Don't worry, it must be done cleanly and without leaving any traces!"

"That would be the best."

Seeing Guo Yuanzhen's positive attitude and striving for performance, Li Tong also nodded in satisfaction.

He intends to include some assets of the Dou family in the suburbs of Beijing as targets this time. These properties either pretend to be aliases, or are hidden in remote areas, which just kills two birds with one stone.

If Guo Yuanzhen is still full of crazy ideas, he will like the new and dislike the old in the future, and think that the fourth child is a good master, then today's matter is enough for this guy to drink a big pot.After the chaos is rectified in the future, if you perform martial arts in Lishan, and the Dou family is in the middle of it, it will not be as simple as using him to stand out.

Guo Yuanzhen was still discussing with Shi Sizhen here, so Li Tong went out first, seeing his elder brother wandering outside the corridor, his heart moved, he motioned to merge into the middle hall, and after they each sat down, he said: "Brothers are both elders, you should have something to do. The second brother is a person who is enthusiastic and generous, and has many followers. Brother, you are often withdrawn, which makes people worry."

Li Guangshun gave a wry smile when he heard the words. He was originally calm and quiet. Before that, due to the entanglement between his family members, he had been looked down upon by his empress for a long time, so he became more introverted and unconfident.Now that the family business is improving, the second and third younger brothers are busy, but he doesn't know what to do, which makes him even more depressed.

Li Tong looked at his elder brother and asked again: "Brother, would you like to be an official in Sichuan?"

"Sanlang, you want to be in Sichuan... well, I have nothing to do, as long as I can help you, don't stay in the courtyard, I can do it anywhere. It's just that there are some obstacles in this matter, right?"

Li Guangshun nodded quickly after hearing the words, and said with some uncertainty.

Although the mess of affairs in central Sichuan has not yet been rolled out, there will definitely be a lot of personnel relations in the future. No matter how capable the subordinates are, they are all inferior right now. If their status and prestige cannot be achieved, the effect will always be poor. many.

But his family is naturally different. Because of the presence of Wang Jue, the deterrent and appealing power of face is enough, and there is no need to worry about specific affairs. As long as he sits there, he can provide a great force for things.

This matter is not easy to clear up, Li Tong naturally understands.At present, although their relatives of Li Tang clan also served as governors in other prefectures, they are not as sensitive as their brothers after all, and in the closed area of ​​central Sichuan, it is easy for dangerous things to happen.

Li Tong only had such an idea by accident. He knew that the difficulty was not small, but it was not impossible.If it can operate successfully, it is worth a try from the perspective of prospects.

But no matter whether it can be accomplished or not, this matter has to be returned to God for operation, and it can only be kept in mind at the moment.After communicating with his elder brother for a while, Li Tong stopped talking further.

At this time, at the East Chunming Gate of Xijing City, an old man was riding a skinny donkey, with a servant at the front and back, queuing up to enter the city.

The Chunming Gate is near Longqingfang, and the people queuing up to enter the city chatted leisurely, unavoidably being involved in the chaos that happened in Longqingfang earlier.

Not to mention the power struggles involved, the gathering and dispersal of large quantities of treasures and goods is a very attractive topic of conversation. Many residents in the city use this to show off and talk about the situation of that day with such convincing words that people can't tell whether they saw it with their own eyes or completely. speculation.

The old man moved forward slowly with the team, with a faint smile on his lips, listening attentively.

After entering the city, a servant in front turned his head and asked, "Sir, where are you going now?"

The old man smiled on the back of the donkey and said: "Naturally, I will go to Pingkangfang first. This pair of old noodles with loose skin is really not as elegant as the famous king, but I also have regrets if I miss the elegant things. Look at the wind and the moon lightly, and comfort myself for the hard work of the day and night." .”

Chapter 0301 Yunshao Mansion Envoy, Young King Returns to the Capital

Shi Sizhen's muscles and bones were injured, and it took a period of recuperation to move freely, but Guo Yuanzhen's enthusiasm for submitting certificates was very high, and he called for battles several times.

So Li Tong asked Tian Shaoan to pick out a few targets first, and let the newly joined general lead the expedition.

Sure enough, professionals are very extraordinary. Guo Yuanzhen led his disciples to run around the suburbs of Beijing. In one night, he swept through three private properties of the Dou family. It's different, you can leave the house immediately, there is no need to stop and waste time to collect the goods, and there are loyal disciples waiting for orders to finish.

This guy looked dissatisfied with his desires, hoping that the young king could give him more targets.Li Tong was also extremely pleased with this enthusiasm, and his wish was naturally fulfilled.

But when Dou Xiyu returned to Xijing City, and outside Chunming Gate, was arrested in public by Wannian County Magistrate Quan Huai'en and sent to the county prison, the whole Chang'an City was shocked to know that Dou's family had a relationship with the young man. The assassination of the king was related, so it was inevitable that there would be an uproar.

Of course Guo Yuanzhen also knew the news, and returned to the palace one day and night after he finished his busy work, he asked in a nervous mood, "I don't know what the king has used recently. Could it be related to the uproar in Beijing?"

"What do you say?"

Li Tong looked at him with a half-smile.

Guo Yuanzhen's face collapsed when he heard this, and then he straightened his attitude and said solemnly: "If there is really something involved, I don't think it's necessary to worry about it. It's too obvious, and it will inevitably lead to associations. Moreover, the disciples have been haunting at night recently. There are already jitters in the suburbs of Beijing, and it is the right time to turn the scene and settle the matter of Shi County Lieutenant first!"

Li Tong was amused again after hearing the words, you are squatting in the cesspit and want to clean up?

However, Guo Yuanzhen's words are not unreasonable. Although Dou's family has a lot of private property, but this guy can't stand it. In a few nights, more than ten places have been swept away, and the rest are either unsuitable, or they are still far away. It is necessary to change the scene.

And now half of July has passed, and Xue Jichang, the envoy of the gods, with the help of the officials left behind, has formally interrogated him about the assassination of the young king.In this situation, it is not suitable for internal and external chaos, and it is necessary to stop in moderation.

After a few days of recuperation, Shi Sizhen was still unable to move freely, but small movements were fine. If it dragged on, maybe Wei Yuanzhong would come, and there would be no room for whitewashing.

"Then you can go back to the government under the command of the Shi County Commandant. You don't need to go back to Xijing after the Shiping County affairs are over, but go straight to Tongquan. After that, I will send someone to contact you and specialize in preaching orders."

After thinking for a while, Li Tong nodded and said, and at the same time agreed on some communication details, and then sent the group to leave the palace.

In Xijing City, there was quite a commotion about the Dou family.Especially Xue Jichang, the envoy who entered the city, squatted in the left-behind mansion, constantly interrogating officials and people, as if he wanted to dig deep, and those who didn't know thought he was the new Xijing left-behind.So these current people in Xijing City are not very optimistic about the future of the Dou family.

Just talking about the rise and fall of a family is not enough to reflect the shock that this incident has brought to the hearts of Xijing.

Let's put it this way, although the Dou family's status is declining now, but the background and qualifications are here, especially after the fall of Changsun Wuji, it is not an exaggeration to say that they are the big brothers of the Guanlong noble group.

Even in the years when the Wuzhou Revolutionary War was the most intense, even the Empress Liu's family was almost wiped out among the relatives, but the Empress still did not attack the Dou family, she only suppressed the Dou family a little bit, and at the same time The emperor's grandson Li Longji, who had a deep relationship with the Dou family, was also adopted to the filial emperor Li Hong.In other words, even if the emperor Li Dan had bad luck, the Dou family still had reason to live on.

Now that the revolution is successful, the Dou family looks like they are about to encounter a catastrophe. Can you not be surprised?No one can tell whether this is the end of a climax or a new beginning.

It is precisely because of this that the King of Hedong and Xue Jichang, who is directly in charge of the case, are also involved in slander, thinking that they are trying to frame the famous clan.As a result, the number of Guan Longxun's noble children walking under Li Tong's gate has dropped sharply, and they dare not openly stand with King Hedong at this time.

Of course Li Tong understood that there was no such thing, he really planned to frame the Dou family, but the seemingly menacing Xue Jichang was not necessarily.

The simplest point is that Xue Jichang seems to be making a big fuss, but even he, the sufferer, rarely asks questions, and has almost no contact whether in public or private.There is also the chain of evidence that Li Tong took the time to ask Wannian County to prepare in the past few days. Xue Jichang also used it to a limited extent, but had to judge by himself.

Combining all kinds of things, Li Tong could also tell that Xue Jichang was not framing the famous clan, but clearly cleaning up the family.His aggressive questioning of the people should be to sort out the messy personnel relations of the Dou family, so that the family will no longer have troubles because of this.

But no matter what Xue Jichang's intentions were, it had little to do with Li Tong.What he wants is for Dou's family to become chaotic, and then go all out to swallow up his family's property. You don't care about Dou's property, but I do. I won't leave a single thing for you!I am happy to see you fighting tigers in front of the mountain, and Lao Tzu collecting firewood in the back.

Having said that, it is not easy for Li Tong to behave too badly on occasions. After all, the crowd is looking sideways at the moment. If he does too much, it will be difficult to communicate with those Guanlong nobles in the future.

And as time goes by, Wei Yuanzhong should be coming to Xijing soon. Li Tong is also a bit afraid of such a capable minister who often doesn't follow the routine. He is definitely not as easy to fool as Wu Youyi. Immortal, but if you expose your true secret, the loss outweighs the gain.

So in the future, we will continue to strengthen and consolidate the internal organization of the old clothing club, and at the same time digest the assets under the Dou family's counter.

As Guo Yuanzhen returned to Shuzhong after helping Shi Sizhen solve the political performance problem, the Feiqian business officially started. The first money order was also issued by Baoli Bank in Chang'an Chengdong City. The amount was not large, only one hundred coins.

But this is undoubtedly a breakthrough from zero to one. As long as this money order can be successfully withdrawn in Chengdu, the business volume will explode.

Regarding this matter, Yang Li also did not dare to neglect. When Feng Changsi rushed to Xijing from Shendu City, she handed over the financial affairs and returned to Chengdu to take charge of the exchange affairs.

Not long after Feng Changsi's arrival, another envoy from the capital of the gods arrived, and this time he directly summoned the young king to return to the capital.

A month ago, there was another official adjustment in the city of Shendu. In this round of reform, the Neijiaofang under the nominal jurisdiction of Li Tong, Li Tong, was renamed Yunshao Mansion, so Li Tong added another post to his official position. Named Yunshao Mansion Envoy, Shenghuangzhi summoned the young king to return to the capital to preside over this official adjustment.

At the same time, there is other news, that is, preparations are underway for Changshou Changshou, and this time calling Li Tong back to the capital is also for the joy of Changing Yuan.Princess Taiping, including the old eunuch Yang Chong, are also persuading him not to stay in Xijing any longer, and returning to Shendu as soon as possible is the most important thing.

Li Tong no longer insisted on this. During the time he stayed in Chang'an, he did all the things he should do. The rest was to continue to develop. He didn't have enough time to follow up calmly. It was meaningless to stay in Xijing again. It's not too big anymore.

Besides, Xue Jichang was sharpening his knife, and the people in Xijing were shocked, and he had already received a lot of benefits, so of course he slapped his ass and got out.If he stayed again, if the situation developed further and entered an uncontrollable stage, he might not be able to stay out of it.

So taking advantage of the last bit of time, he quickly adjusted and distributed the affairs at hand, and delegated the power to each person in charge.Here in Chang'an City, there are officials Xu Jian, Su Yue, and Shi Sizhen from Jingxi. As long as there is no major shock, small troubles can be settled.

In the Guyi Club, there are Tian Shao'an, Yang Xianzong, Li Yang and others, who are in charge of various affairs, and each person is responsible for a share of business, and they are all in order.

In the further arrangement, there will be Liu Youqiu and a group of brave fighters who entered Long, as well as the unreliable Guo Yuanzhen, and Yang Li and Feng Changsi who are jointly responsible for the Feiqian business.

After such a delay, August was drawing to a close, but the successor Wei Yuanzhong, who stayed behind in Xijing, still hadn't arrived yet.This inevitably made Li Tong suspicious, feeling that something was a little unusual.

Leaving aside the disputes and disputes in Xijing, it should be known that this year the four towns of Anxi are going to be taken back. The reason why Li Tong expelled Wu Youyi was also to help him a little bit.It is reasonable, it has come to this season, Wei Yuanzhong should have taken office and is ready to assist in military affairs.

But seeing that there was no time to delay, Li Tong could only pack up the things with his family and officially set off for the capital of God.When he left, he didn't bring too much belongings, but ordered 300 warriors from the old clothes shop to be secretly followed by a battalion.After arriving in Shendu, these people will also be his secret guards, and they will be responsible for handling some things that are inconvenient to use government officials.

Hurrying all the way, when the family returned to Shendu, it was already mid-September.

When he arrived at Tongguan, Li Tong knew that Heizhi Changzhi had left Guanxi a few days ago and went to Heyuan to serve as the economic and strategic ambassador of the Heyuan Army.However, as the general manager of the march, it is still Wang Xiaojie who is really responsible for recovering the four towns.

As for the original Heyuan Army Ambassador Lou Shide, he entered the court with the title of Xia Guan Shangshu, and Li Zhaode, the former Xia Guan servant, was worshiped as Fengge Minister.The first part of the southern province has two appearances, which shows that his grandmother Wu Zetian is determined to get rid of her past humiliation in this Western Expedition and is bound to win!

Li Tong's family was on the way, so they naturally missed such a military event.Of course, even if he wasn't on the way, he wouldn't be able to participate, it was just missing a chance to witness it with his own eyes.

At the same time, when passing through Lantian County, Li Tong also heard that Wei Yuanzhong, who had been waiting for him for a long time, entered the residence of Liushou almost as soon as he left Xijing.After learning about this, he couldn't help but suspect that the old slicker wanted to give him a little stimulation.

But no matter what, the gods are close at hand. After three years of absence, returning to this place again, there are not many emotions, but a lot of ambition.Today's him is no longer the old year, but he doesn't know how the gods and human affairs will treat him.

Chapter 0302 Hundreds of families contend for a son-in-law, and Junchen presents gifts

Xiyueyan, the capital city of God, is located next to Luoshui River. It attracts people to linger because of the permeable water vapor and pleasant scenery on weekdays.With the opening of the Taiping Princess Playground here, it will become even more crowded with tourists.

Today, this place is also very lively, even better than in the past, and this excitement is not limited to the theater and its surrounding areas, it has spread out for more than ten miles.There are wide car tents on both sides of the road, and there are many slaves in fresh clothes running around to inquire and deliver news.

"Have you come yet? Where have you been?"

"Remember to keep a good position, the mistress and the ladies are coming here, you must be able to see the king as soon as possible!"

All kinds of shouts filled the ears, making the environment even more noisy, and greatly destroying the beautiful scenery of this place, but few people care about whether the scenery is beautiful or not at this moment.

Among the many tents added along the way, a colorful tent is the most colorful and eye-catching, with several layers inside and outside, covering a vast area.Princess Taiping was dressed in men's clothing and sat on the high couch in the inner room. There was no room for guests on the left and right. Most of the people present were the mistresses of nobles and dignitaries from all over the world, chatting eagerly with Princess Taiping about trivial matters.

Wei Tuan'er rarely came out of the palace today, wearing a moon-white scholar's T-shirt, with a tall and curvaceous figure, standing at the corner of the tent with everyone in the princess's mansion, frequently looking out with his hands, There is no lack of impatience between the eyebrows and eyes, and occasionally when he turns his head to look into the tent, he looks a bit sullen.

"Come on, come on! Your Majesty's chariot has already appeared on the slope!"

Shouts came from outside, and all kinds of people's voices became louder for a while. The mistresses who were chatting with Princess Taiping at the banquet also got up one after another after hearing the words, and returned to their respective tents under the protection of their servants.

"These people really can tell the difference between cold and warm. Once they hear their voices, they immediately leave me in a mess."

Seeing that the seats that were originally full of guests were empty within a short period of time, Princess Taiping couldn't help feeling a little annoyed, and then raised her eyes to see Wei Tuan'er, who was blushing, walking quickly, and couldn't help laughing and said: "Is it true that the closer you go, the deeper your thoughts?"

After Wei Tuan'er heard the words, his face showed shame, and he lowered his head and said: "My servant is going out today as a palace envoy, and I would like to offer you my intention to come and see if the king is as handsome as before. Your Royal Highness, shall we go out together?"

"Hmph, no matter how you say it, he is also a junior. I am willing to set up a tent to treat each other. It is already a lot of love. There is no reason to go forward!"

Princess Taiping signaled Wei Tuan'er to come closer: "Stay here peacefully, all the families line up to admire the beloved, and in less than half an hour, he might not be able to pass the account here."

"Your Majesty has just returned after a long absence, but he is so urged by favors. I wonder if he will feel troubled? Your Royal Highness is too flirtatious. Even if it is about important matters for strangers, you should introduce them slowly. How can you be patient enough to appreciate this kind of clamor... ..."

Hearing the hidden complaints in Wei Tuan'er's eyes, Princess Taiping laughed, pointing to the bustle outside the tent and said: "It's not my work alone, it's just forwarding the news, and the love of each family will gather. Can monopolize good luck."

While speaking, she turned to Wei Tuan'er again and said with a smile: "Miss Wei, there is no need to dislike the uproar. The young king has a natural feeling of nostalgia for the past, and it is not a frivolity to chase after the new. Although the relationship is far away , but it has its own story connected.”

When Wei Tuan'er heard this, besides being shy, there was even a trace of self-injury in his eyes: "The servant girl is not calm, not as good as a good family, and the grass is old, how dare she have any delusions of climbing up."

"Human nature is so beautiful, women love their lovers, what kind of delusion is this? The young king is originally the beauty of Zongzhi, the jewel in the palace. When it comes to the love between two people, how many women in the world are not high-ranking? You are the king's private It is only natural to love people and give gifts to relatives and disciples."

Princess Taiping got up, patted Wei Tuan'er's fragrant shoulder and said: "It's just that you know him. He has not lived for a long time and has many facts. Now he is far from being calm and stable. We need people like you to watch over and respond."

"The maidservant must help the king diligently! Also, I must also respect the advice of His Royal Highness the princess!"

When Wei Tuan'er heard this, his eyes lit up again, he clenched his fists secretly, and said solemnly in his mouth.

Princess Taiping smiled even brighter when she heard this: "Everyone has their own business, you just stick to your true feelings, and the rest will naturally be laid out for you by me."

At this moment on the south bank of Luoshui, Li Tong was really dumbfounded at the moment. He really didn't expect that the people in Shendu would respond with such great enthusiasm for his return.

The outermost circle of the crowd is a group of young officials who are old members of the palace and have been recommended by the young king.

Li Siwen, the son of Li Jingyi, stepped forward to get off his horse and took the bridle, and said with a smile to the young king: "When the humble people know that the king will return, they will pinch their fingers and wait. They have prepared a lot of dramas for the king to appreciate the current human condition and appearance of the city. Unexpectedly, human feelings have already gathered here, and the heat is hard to dissipate. We can only reappear later when we wait for the old pavement."

While speaking, he led his horse to the left front of his body, but Zhang Shuo, who was already tall on the other side, raised his hand to hold Li Siwen's belt, and said with a smile: "Li Xiaoshu did this, but he was a little far away. Favor!"

Li Tong was a little confused at the moment, so seeing that the two of them held the reins on one side and refused to give up, Ni Ruoshui, who was standing behind, laughed and said, "Your Majesty is returning after a long absence, and what you did and did has become a gift for you to donate to others." goods!"

While speaking, he explained to the young king: "The gatherings during the journey are all family members from various families in the city who want to visit the king's family..."

Hearing this explanation, Li Tong realized why his popularity suddenly rose so high. It turned out that as early as a month ago, his aunt Princess Taiping released the news that the Holy Emperor intervened and wanted to choose a concubine for him, and now she came back. Faced with such a scene.

Being so welcomed and sought after by others, Li Tong was of course very beautiful in his heart, but when he saw the turbulent scene in front of him, he couldn't help scratching his head anxiously, and only said to Zhang Shuo and Li Siwen, who were still arguing about the reins: "Human feelings are different. It is inevitable to be unfamiliar. Besides, I have my own family, so I can’t help this love. Virtue still needs to be practiced, how can I let Shiliu argue for me. Right now, my mood is disordered, and I don’t have any sincerity. It's not advisable to approach aggressive girls."

"Don't be abrupt, don't be abrupt! The family members are waiting in the tent, just waiting for the guidance of the lowly position. I don't hope that the matter can be resolved in a hurry, but if you can look at it, you will know that there is a reward..."

When Li Siwen spoke up to this point, there was already a bit of pleading on his face, he looked up at the young king and said: "I have been disgusted by my relatives for a long time, but this time I know that I can express my old feelings to the king. If you can't invite the king to look at this matter, I'm afraid it will be even more disgusted by your relatives and disciples! I hope that the king will take pity on this old situation and turn to take care of me!"

Another Zhang said: "Can the old friendship from the outer court be cut into the affairs of the inner court? The preface has been disallowed, and it must be difficult to enter the account! How can there be so much talk about the matter of two feelings!"

A few people were still arguing here, but more people rushed up from behind. Some even directly pulled the chariots in the Young King's team to their own tents.

Li Tong was a little at a loss when he saw this scene. Later generations had heard many anecdotes about catching sons-in-law under the list, but now that it was his turn, he couldn't bear the enthusiasm.

However, this embarrassment did not last long, and soon someone came to rescue him, but the way was a bit unexpected.

The young king's return to the capital just caused some noise in the market, and of course it did not hinder the affairs of the court.Today, after the court was dismissed, all the officials returned to the office separately. After noon, some people left early one after another.Among them, a large group of people also poured out from You Su Zhengtai, and went to the Youye Gate of the imperial city together.

Since the Tianshou Revolution, the queen has given excessive rewards and granted titles so much that the imperial court is overcrowded.Among them, Zuo Suzhengtai is a hard-hit area. Besides the official staff, there are many Lixing and Jia staff.

There are too many people, the quality is naturally worrying, and it is inevitable that there will be a miasma.And Xiantai was also in charge of impeachment matters. Although the court officials were overwhelmed by it, they dared not speak out.

This group of people walking out of Xiantai at this moment is exactly the same. They shouted and laughed loudly in this solemn place in the imperial city, without any scruples and no official decorum.

"Come to Zhongcheng, where are you going to spend your time today?"

One of them looked at a middle-aged man who was surrounded by everyone and asked attentively.
