Dressed as the cannon fodder of the princess's house

The Wu family in Chang'an, speaking of history, the existence of the Wu family can be traced back to the founding years of the previous dynasty.There have been more than ten generations of grandparents and grandchildren, and hundreds of officials have been in the court.

Xi Zitong told Yueqing about the Wu family, and Yueqing could hide from Xu Qingjun what he wanted to do with the Wu family, but he couldn't hide it from Xi Zitong.Of course, Xi Zitong knew it, and it was no different from Xu Qingjun knowing it.

"This should be the legendary Zhongding family. If so, how could there be someone like Chang'an Zhizhou in such a family?" Yueqing was puzzled. The emperor loved him so much, why would such a character commit crimes knowingly?

He should understand that he is a courtier, and as a courtier, he must not offend his superiors.Withholding tax money to build a shrine for himself, this kind of stupid thing is really not like a high-ranking official who has read poetry and books.

"When he was young, this Zhizhou Wu was a well-known figure. The first time he got off the court, he was even a small and medium-sized Sanyuan. In the end, he was selected as the second place by the late emperor. Many people thought that he would eventually become a prime minister. Unfortunately, later All kinds of changes happened to the Wu family, and he was accidentally on the wrong team, which forced him to miss the position of prime minister." Xi Zitong has long been dissatisfied with the grouping of civil servants, and the result of grouping is that everyone wins and loses.

Even though Wu Zhizhou was amazingly talented when he was young, he couldn't escape the vicious circle.

"It's amazing to be able to climb to this position even after losing the emperor's heart." According to Yue Qing's shallow knowledge from various ancient novels, it is good for officials to lose the emperor's heart and not be relegated to a bitter cold place to do hard work up.

"The Wu family is everyone, with many in-laws. Even His Majesty, it is impossible to neglect the Wu family at will. But the old man of the Wu family is really confused." After Xi Zitong came to Chang'an, he paid attention to the old man's every move. Most of the people in Chang'an The matter was handed over to Tong Zhi, who was the son-in-law of the Wu family and could be regarded as the younger generation of the Wu family.

Yueqing suddenly remembered that it seemed that the Magistrate Zhou of Zhangyang County had a son-in-law relationship with the officials of the imperial city.

What happened to the court of the Great Zhou Dynasty, there are shadows of in-laws everywhere, can the emperor still control it?I'm afraid the entire court is controlled by the family with the most sons and daughters and the most extensive interests.

If it wasn't for the Princess Qin's reluctance to marry, perhaps the court at the beginning would have really become the possession of powerful officials.Xi Zitong remembered some old things, and she was a little distracted. When she came back to her senses, she happened to see Yueqing frowning, with a look of bitterness and hatred on his face.

The soft and cute little girl seemed to have changed suddenly, becoming a lot more serious.Xi Zitong thought about what Yueqing had done recently, and suddenly found that Yueqing was cute, but her personality was not as soft as her appearance. On the contrary, she had a very strong temper, which was different from the princess.

The princess will consider the reactions of many parties, and will use the technique of balance. She can bear even a little loss on weekdays, but the little girl can't even bear the ice being taken away.

"Little girl, what are you thinking about frowning?"

"I was thinking, the princess must be very angry. There are bad guests in the house, and they can't be driven away. Isn't the current behavior of the Wu family just like doves occupying the magpie's nest?" Chang'an was originally a fiefdom of Xu Qingjun, and now the Wu family is in Chang'an is domineering, even Xu Qingjun has to back away, it is really infuriating!

Yueqing suddenly feels sorry for Xu Qingjun, Xu Qingjun is the princess, she should be like the book, an existence under one person and above ten thousand people.

The plot of the novel begins two years later, and what happened in these two years is only recorded in two or three sentences in the novel. Yue Qing never knew that Xu Qingjun suffered so many grievances during the two years that were not in the book!

Yueqing felt sorry for Xu Qingjun sincerely, Xi Zitong only felt a mouthful of old blood welling up in his heart, neither vomited nor swallowed.

Yes, Xu Qingjun does have to bear with it sometimes, but she is not a soft persimmon. With her background, in the whole Dazhou, except for a few people, who would dare to provoke her?

Besides, Xu Qingjun's forbearance is not forbearance, that's called settlement after autumn!Xi Zitong has been by Xu Qingjun's side for many years, and has never seen Xu Qingjun really suffer.

Yueqing seemed to have a big misunderstanding of the princess, Xi Zitong pinched her chin and pondered for a moment, she thought of Xu Qingjun, in Xu Qingjun's mouth, Yueqing will always be a little girl who will be bullied.

"I must punish the Wu family well! Lisheng Temple? I will put their entire family's name on the tablet!" Yueqing said viciously, determined to take back the control of Chang'an from the Wu family for Xu Qingjun. "Master Xi, look at it, I'll go first!"

Don't look at Yueqing's swearing, she didn't dare to kill her, at most she wanted to smear the Wu family's reputation and make the Wu family feel embarrassed.

But Xi Zitong didn't know that Yue Qing was being cowardly, it was the first time she had heard someone speak so harshly, it was so vicious that it made people die.

Patting his little heart that was so frightened by Yueqing, Xi Zitong planned to talk to Xu Qingjun, so that Xu Qingjun could wake up, and don't always think that Yueqing would be bullied!If this little girl doesn't bully others, it's good luck for others!

As for Xu Qingjun's reaction after hearing Xi Zitong's exaggerated description, no one knows. After all, it is difficult for people to see sadness and joy on that face that does not show any emotion.

Since its opening, Vientiane Building has always been the focus of Chang’an. Whether it’s its endless sales methods or a variety of exquisite and valuable items, it’s a novelty for Chang’an people who love to chase new things and have a lot of spare money. .

If you want to talk about the most famous thing recently, it is the ice sculpture of Vientiane Building.

The newly-launched ice sculptures are loved by the people in the early autumn when they are still hot. The ice sculptures are simply carved into the shape of lanterns, with colored papers inside, and candles are placed in them at night, which can reflect various colors of light. ,Extremely Beautiful.

I bought this ice at home for one night to cool off the heat, and those who bought it during the day also liked to look at the color. In addition, the price of ice sculptures was not expensive, and it caused a scene that as many as they were put on the shelves would be cleared on the same day.

The frenzy of sales was announced in Vientiane Building, Vientiane Building obeyed the name of Princess Chang'an, used part of all the money from selling ice to repair the houses where the old, the weak, the sick and the disabled lived, and part of it was used to set up nursery halls to take care of orphans, so that the old and young would have a better life. After the residence, the sick and the disabled have been supported, they have reached the peak.

Behind the Vientiane Building is the matter of Princess Chang'an. Many ordinary people didn't know it before, but after the spread of Vientiane Building, everyone knew it.

Teahouses and restaurants became lively again because of the existence of Vientiane Building.

"The Princess Chang'an is really a good person. Ever since she came, Chang'an has changed. Our Chang'an is the fiefdom of the County Lord. Will it all belong to the County Supervisor in the future?"

"The princess is just a princess, not a prince. Even if he has a fief, he has no right to manage it. I heard that the princess came to Chang'an this time to collect tax money, but Wu Zhizhou has been delaying it."

"Why? The princess of Chang'an is the same as the princess, and Chang'an is the princess Tang Muyi. Why doesn't Zhizhou pay the princess tax money!"

"You don't know? A few days ago, someone outside the city set up a shrine for Zhizhou Wu. You all know about it, right?"

"I know, I heard that some people felt that Wu Zhizhou had a good governance, and that he was a veteran of the two dynasties. He was quite famous in the world, so he set up a shrine to show respect."

As soon as these words came out, the surrounding crowd fell silent, and then the pot exploded with a bang.

"He has only governed Chang'an for two years, how can he govern one side in a proper way? What a fool, the family has money and nowhere to spend it, so here it is to show courteousness!"

"If it's a shrine to life, it should be a shrine to the emperor and saint. There's no place for Wu Zuoan! Could it be that he compares himself to a saint!"

Wu Zuo'an is the name of Wu Zhizhou, his name is Wu Zuo, and his style name is Zuo'an.

"It seems that everyone has no intention of establishing a shrine for Zhizhou. Then who built this shrine, built it magnificently, and whose money was spent on it?"

When one sentence was asked, the crowd's discussion became more serious, and the person who asked the question quietly left, and after a while, he appeared in another teahouse where there was a lively discussion about Vientiane Tower and Chang'an Princess.

Within a few days, various rumors appeared among the people in Chang'an. There were various versions of the rumors, but each version pointed directly at the Wu family.

At the beginning, no one cared about the voice of the people, until the voice became louder and spread, and all the surrounding counties knew that the Wu family had a Wu Zhizhou, who was a corrupt official through and through.

The power of public opinion warfare in ancient times lies in its large influence, wide area, and large number of people involved. The disadvantage is that the scope of information dissemination is limited, and it is difficult to attract widespread attention. If it is not for the hotspot built in the Vientiane Building, things will not spread quickly and widely.

When Wu Zhizhou found out about this, it was already too late, his reputation was completely ruined, and even the entire Wu family was implicated.

Some officials impeached him, and these rumors have reached the ears of the emperor. Wu Zhizhou knows how much the emperor loves the Princess Chang'an, and he knows that everything is over.

Wu Zhizhou is already 70 years old, and it is said that seventy is rare in ancient times. He has lived to this age, and many things have been looked down upon, but when he was dismissed, and his nephew and son-in-law were demoted, he still couldn't stand it. past.

In his whole life, he lived in a muddleheaded way. He said he was smart, but he wasn't too smart. After all, he misunderstood others and himself.

Influenced by his family when he was young, Wu Zhizhou was not destined for a higher position. Wu Zhizhou was decadent for a long time. He learned martial arts and sold it to the emperor's family. At that time, he felt that all his abilities were wasted.

People don't break out in silence, they go astray in silence. Wu Zhizhou belongs to the latter, and he worked for half his life to become Chang'an Zhizhou.

When Wu Zhizhou first became Zhizhou, although he was old, he still had a sense of dedication. At that time, he thought that he must make some achievements.

As a result, it didn't take long for Chang'an to be named Tang Muyi, the lord of Chang'an County, and became a private town.

In a private town, no matter how much tax money there is, most of it will be sent to the royal family, and will not enter the household department at all. No matter how well he does, it is still not considered a political achievement, so he has evil thoughts and offends people who shouldn't be offended.
