However, those aristocratic families who had made an appointment did not move at all. It seemed that they were preparing to join forces to fight against the demolition.

So Du Shaoqing no longer hesitated, and invited Li Yuanchang, the King of Han, the commander-in-chief of the Chang'an reconstruction has been accumulating energy for a long time, and he is just waiting for the mission to come to his door to make contributions. He did not wait for ten thousand taels of silver a year.

"Shaoqing, I heard that there were people violently resisting the demolition in Huaiyuanfang. How about it? Is it time for Uncle Qi to take action? I brought all the men and horses. Hehe, I ordered the knives to be sharpened." Li Yuanchang excitedly said.

Du Shaoqing's foot slipped, and he thought to himself, what are you doing sharpening the knife?It's not to kill people.

"Seventh Uncle can't mess around. We are demolished. We don't need knives. We might as well use hoes and shovels. Quickly ask your subordinates to change their equipment."

"Ah? No, are you asking me to take the lead in digging the ground? Is this a little, a little I am a prince anyway?" Li Yuanchang was in a dilemma.

Du Shaoqing laughed and explained: "Seventh Uncle misunderstood, listen to me, you are the commander-in-chief holding the imperial decree, and you have a great reputation. According to our investigation, the hands and feet of these people who prevented the demolition are not clean, you so and so"

After hearing this, Li Yuanchang suddenly realized, he laughed and led his troops out, and went straight to Huaiyuan Square.

It was also the residence of Cui Sanlang, the Qinghe Cui family in Huaiyuanfang. This time, Cui Sanlang heard that [-] private soldiers had come outside the door, and he was so frightened that he dared not open the door.

"Open the door, my king, Li Yuanchang, has been ordered to be the commander-in-chief of the reconstruction of Chang'an City, and is here to inspect Huaiyuanfang." Li Yuanchang shouted.

Inside, Cui Sanlang's heart suddenly broke out. This King of Han is a reckless man, but he has always been timid. When did he dare to offend Qinghe Cui family so boldly?

"Hanwang Highness, this is a private house. We have already stated the demolition conditions and we will not change it, so we will not entertain you and your army today." Cui Sanlang shouted inside.

Li Yuanchang laughed loudly and said: "My king received a secret report that you are suspected of secretly digging secret channels and secretly communicating with businessmen from other countries, so I came here to check. If you don't open the door to wait for investigation, you will be dealt with as a crime of resisting the law."

Cui Sanlang's feet softened, his heart was finished, who broke the rules first, and why was this kind of thing exposed?In Huaiyuan Square, which of the gray businesses doesn't have one or two secret passages?Some escaped, and some were secretly discussed.

According to Chang'an City Defense Regulations, no one is allowed to secretly dig secret roads or modify underground canals and other fortifications.

Chapter 362 This is the real demolition (two in one)

"Open the door, open the door quickly and let us go in for inspection. If you don't open the door again, it will be regarded as resistance to the law. I will break in later." Li Yuanchang's guard captain shouted loudly.

But who dares to open the door?No one would have thought that Li Yuanchang would dare to tear himself apart with Cui Shi of Qinghe. Does he not want to hang out in Chang'an?

Cui Sanlang inside the door was already in a state of desperation, and his subordinates persuaded him: "Third Master, it seems that we can't stand it anymore, so we should quickly send someone to ask Second Master for help."

Another person said: "If we open the door, our family is not the only one who digs secret tunnels. He Li Yuanchang has always been with us, so he probably won't do anything real."

Who knew that just as the man finished speaking, Li Yuanchang shouted impatiently outside the door: "How dare a group of rats dare to ignore this king? This king represents the imperial court, and they are contemptuous of the imperial court. Push things up, break the door and arrest people."

Cui Sanlang looked through the crack of the door, good guy, isn't this a battering ram?God, are you, Li Yuanchang, here to inspect or demolish our house?

Turning his head and kicking the previous subordinate, Cui Sanlang scolded in a low voice: "You said he didn't dare to be serious? The battering ram has been rolled out, do you hit it with your forehead?"

What Li Yuanchang launched was not a real battering ram, it was a giant machine that required tens or hundreds of people to operate. It was a small percussion hammer that Du Shaoqing asked Yuzhe to design, and it used the principle of the temple bell.

However, the impact hammer is many times stronger than the bell hammer. It is estimated that the ordinary wooden door can't stand it at once. The door of Cui's house here is made of good materials and the defense is strong, but it may not be able to hold it under this heavy impact hammer. Down.

"Third Master, what should we do? Open the door and surrender. I saw someone with a sword unsheathed beside him." The servant was so frightened that his legs were limp and his words trembled.

"Surrender? What a bunch of idiots, are you going to be arrested and sent to prison? Run away, what is the purpose of digging that secret passage? Isn't it just to escape?" Cui Sanlang scolded and fled inside, followed by the servants behind him Fleeing in all directions, some clever ones even knew to put a stick on the gate.

The house is not big, and all the people inside ran away before the hammer knocked open the gate. Li Yuanchang's guard captain said anxiously: "My lord, ask your subordinates to lead people over the wall to enter. If you wait any longer, the thief may escape."

"Huh? That's right. Go, report to Concubine Du to send troops for help, and at the same time lead two teams to block the gate of Huaiyuan Square, allowing people to enter and not to leave. Today is our first day on duty. Even this small matter can't be settled. You will have no face in Chang'an." Li Yuanchang commanded.

The captain of the guard promised to send people out, and at the same time he wanted people to climb over the wall. Li Yuanchang scolded: "What if the thieves ambushed inside? Wouldn't there be casualties if they climbed over the wall? I think the wall is built of bricks and stones. After transferring over, don’t you believe that the inside of this wall can still be resisted?”

Sure enough, just two hammers down, a big hole was knocked out in the courtyard wall next to it, and soon the guards rushed in a small group, opened the gate, and everyone rushed in to see that there was no one there.

"Quick, search the secret passage and see where they can go." The captain of the guard shouted.

Soon the two secret passages were searched out, and I don't know what this family does, so they dug two secret passages?

"Soujia, they left in a hurry, let's see what other important things they didn't bring, they must have something wrong in their minds when they fled in such embarrassment, don't miss it, and record everything in the book." Li Yuanchang ordered.

And not far away, the construction team of Du's family is also carrying out normal demolition, but seeing from a distance that Hanwang led people to demolish with battering rams, these workers were already stunned, and they all felt that this is called demolition. Well, we are so cautious, not to mention the weapons, the momentum is more than one step worse.

"My lord, I found out. One of the secret roads leads to a house not far away, and the other leads directly to the West Market. The thief may have escaped from the West Market at this time."

Li Yuanchang was so angry that he lost his way and let the thief escape?If it is not enough troops, I really want to send someone to seal the West Market and arrest them.

"Records, everything is recorded in the book, secretly digging a secret road leading directly to the West Market, it is simply lawless.

By the way, leave a team of guards here to wait for the reinforcements, and the others, find another mansion leading to a secret passage, no need to talk nonsense, break in the door, but take it directly if there is resistance, remember, as long as you don’t die. "

There are rumors in the market that Li Yuanchang is a reckless man, and it is true. Du Shaoqing explained that he should be courteous first and then soldier. Now it is a good thing. After only passing one family, he can't hold back his temper. In this way, those who are stubborn will be unlucky Yes, at least a beating is inevitable.

Du Shaoqing didn't expect his opponent to be so bold, dare to resist the law and not allow the search?In this way, it seems that the conflict is inevitable, so let's transfer troops. Du Shaoqing has no military power, and this matter is a matter of Chang'an's reconstruction plan. The emperor once ordered all departments to cooperate fully.

It is a crime to privately dig secrets according to the law of the Tang Dynasty, and it is most suitable to find the Ministry of Punishment, because there may be a lot of people involved, so Du Shaoqing personally wrote a letter and asked Li Yuanchang's people to bring it to Li Daozong, thinking that this royal general will not lose face.

The reason why Du Shaoqing didn't show up was because he wanted to let Li Yuanchang bear all the notoriety. First, he was the commander-in-chief and was ready to sacrifice the tank top. Second, he was a relative of the emperor. Even if the emperor and Du Shaoqing could not hold on , if it is pursued, it will not kill him, at most it will cut off his title and demote him from Chang'an.

"The second master is in trouble!"

At Cui Junsu's house, Cui Sanlang ran back in a state of embarrassment and cried and said, "Although Cui Sanlang is not Cui Junsu's housekeeper, he is a branch of the Cui family. He was sent to take charge of the Cui family's business in Huaiyuanfang. He usually listens to Cui's orders." Order, in case of a major incident, I asked Cui Junsu, the head of the Cui family in Chang'an, for help.

Cui Junsu, who was paying attention to Du Shaoqing's school running at home, was taken aback, "Why are you so flustered?"

"Second Master, help me. Hanwang and Hanwang Li Yuanchang have just led troops to Huaiyuanfang. In the name of Chang'an City's renovation and demolition, they have smashed our Cui family's underground business in Huaiyuanfang, and even broke the door to arrest people. It is estimated that they are now searching for the little one. People." Cui Sanlang panicked.

"King of Han? Li Yuanchang? Where did he have the courage to touch my Cui family's things? Don't panic, tell me in detail." Cui Junsu calmly said, he is not afraid of Li Yuanchang, the king of Han, and even said he disdains him, that guy is timid.

Cui Sanlang described the events before and after the anti-demolition in detail, and finally added fuel and jealousy: "Second Master, Li Yuanchang must be targeting our Qinghe Cui family, otherwise he wouldn't even have a battering ram ready for the search. up.

Moreover, the matter of secretly digging the secret passage was originally a tacit secret in Chang'an City, so why did he come to provoke today? "

Waving interrupted Cui Sanlang's complaints, Cui Junsu began to think secretly, Li Yuanchang?Commander in Chief of Chang'an City Reconstruction?So what is Young Master Du liquidating?How could a prince without authority come forward to host?What is the emperor planning?

"Chang'an, don't wait any longer. Now avoid the limelight among the Hui clan. I will take care of things here." Cui Junsu said decisively.

Cui Sanlang was determined, and then he took a group of his people out of the city under the arrangement of Cui Junsu with peace of mind. The Cui clan in Qinghe is all his own family, no matter how powerful the court is, it is impossible to stretch out its claws there.

This means that Han Wang Li Yuanchang has no power in his hands. If he is given enough power, I am afraid he would dare to close the four gates of Chang'an City and arrest people.

However, although Cui Sanlang and his group were let go, there are so many nail houses in Huaiyuan Square, Du Shaoqing circled some key houses, and there are always those who are not cautious, so Li Yuanchang made a lot of money in one day, and even arrested more than a dozen A batch of people, at this rate, a hundred nail households can be flattened in four or five days.

Du Shaoqing looked at Li Yuanchang who came to ask him for credit, smiled and said: "Seventh Uncle, today you became famous in one battle, but you offended the famous nobles in Chang'an City all over the place, so be careful when you go out, don't let anyone beat you!" Sap, if the family members can’t go out, don’t go out.”

Li Yuanchang's smile instantly froze on his face, and he slapped his forehead: "What a mistake, I leave this place to you. I'll go back to take care of the housework right away, and come back tomorrow."

"Bring private guards, be careful on the road." Du Shaoqing shouted.

Li Yuanchang was not in any danger on the way home, but when he got home, he found that a group of unexpected guests had come to his palace of the King of Han. Li Yuanchang's heart tightened, came so fast?These people are so bold, are they taking advantage of the emptiness of my Han Palace to knock on the door?

"Who are you waiting for? Why are you in my house? Is it impolite to enter the door without knowing the owner of the house?" Li Yuanchang shouted.
