Struggle in the early Tang Dynasty

Liu Zhenxuan smiled and said: "Master Zhang Family, don't take yourself too seriously. My Lord Hou has a lot of things going on every day, so how can he care about you? Since you want to pretend to be confused, let me explain your doubts with a long word. Xue Hao You know about the murder of a married couple, right? Feng Kui, a meritorious official in the governor’s mansion, secretly communicated with the thieves about the song, and worked in collusion. You must have heard of it? Hehe, last night Zhechong Duwei’s dungeon suddenly broke into the dungeon of the twenty-odd assassins, He wanted to assassinate Feng Kui and kill people to silence him. Unfortunately, he failed in the end and was wiped out by us."

Liu Zhenxuan mentioned these two cases, how could Zhang Yuanxin have not heard of them?Although their Zhang family has been dormant and busy with other things recently, they are very clear about the affairs in Yangzhou City, especially the murder case that has caused a lot of noise recently.

But since this matter has nothing to do with their Zhang family, and it can cause trouble for Guo Ye, the new governor of Yangzhou, they are also happy to hear it, and they are happy to sit on the sidelines and watch.

When he heard Liu Zhenxuan mention what happened last night, he couldn't help feeling relieved. He secretly applauded these assassins. They did a good job. They shouldn't let the thief surnamed Guo stop, but it's a pity that these assassins were all wiped out. , What a bunch of useless things.

However, his heart was secretly refreshed, he didn't understand the relationship between the assassin's rush to the captain's mansion at night last night, and Liu Zhenxuan's troops breaking into Gujing Lane early in the morning, seeking his Zhang family's bad luck.

Immediately, he shouted: "This is a matter for your government, what does it have to do with our Zhang family?"

Liu Zhenxuan sneered and said, "Whether it matters or not, you will know after reading it."

As he said that, he stepped forward to lift the knives that were scattered on the ground with his feet, and reminded Zhang Yuanxin: "Master Zhang Family, you should squat down and check these horizontal knives on the ground yourself, and see what is written on the handle. thing."

Zhang Yuanxin glanced suspiciously at Liu Zhenxuan, then squatted down on the ground with his son Zhang Chengsi, suspiciously inspecting the handles of more than twenty horizontal knives.

If you don't look at it, you can take it. After seeing it, you are really shocked.

As the son, Zhang Chengsi was the first to shout: "Father, the horizontal knives used by these assassins are all from our Zhang family!!"

slap~

Zhang Yuanxin slapped his son on the head and cursed angrily: "You bastard, if you don't know how to speak human words, shut up for me."

Obviously, Zhang Yuanxin also saw the words on the handle of the horizontal knife, and immediately understood the reason why Liu Zhenxuan came to the Zhang family in Gujing Lane early in the morning. It is because these horizontal knives came from the Zhang family.

However, as one of the three elders of the Zhang family, he knows best that their Zhang family has nothing to do with this matter at all.Moreover, the Zhang family has never had any precedent for privately forging and controlling weapons. It is obvious that someone used the name of the Zhang family to do this.

Soon, he thought that maybe someone was deliberately framing the Zhang family.

Immediately, he suddenly stood up and kicked away a horizontal knife in front of him, scratching his neck and yelling: "Absurd, absurd, our Zhang family has been rooted in Yangzhou for more than a hundred years, and we have always obeyed the law. How can we make private weapons? Framed, this is framed. Hmph, Liu Duwei, someone must be deliberately framing my Zhang family."

Zhang Chengsi next to him also chimed in: "That's right, as the governor of Yangzhou, how can the surnamed Guo pour dirty water on our Zhang family's head with some weapons? Could it be that the surnamed Guo wants to avenge his personal revenge and take the opportunity to frame us?" Our Zhang family?"

"presumptuous!!"

Liu Zhenxuan glared at Zhang Chengsi viciously, and shouted: "What are you? How can you slander my Marquis? The third master of the Zhang family, just listen carefully..."

After Liu Zhenxuan scolded Zhang Chengsi, he turned his attention to Zhang Yuanxin, and said: "If my Lord Hou avenges his private revenge and takes the opportunity to frame your Zhang family, I won't let the captain come here today with the assassin's body and weapons. You are in Gujing Lane. My Lord Hou sent Captain Ben here today for only one purpose, which is to ask me why the assassins use weapons marked with the words Zhang Family? He also asked me to ask the head of your Zhang Family Zhang Yuanli, since when did the Zhang family in Gujing Lane join forces with such evil forces in Yangzhou as Fengleitang, and work hand in hand with each other?"

Feng Lei Hall?

Zhang Yuanxin and his son were obviously taken aback when they heard these three words.

At this time, both father and son heard the meaning of Liu Zhenxuan's words. The government has found out that these assassins are all from Fengleitang. As for the weapons, it is obvious that Fengleitang is planting the blame. Let's deal with the Zhang family.

"The Wind and Thunder Hall of Dog Day!"

Zhang Chengsi said anxiously again: "Father, these villains in Fengleitang have been thinking about our Zhang family's property in Yangzhou. Look, this time they have actually done something like framing. I have long I told you that Fengleitang is far from being satisfied with occupying Slender West Lake, and sooner or later it will become interested in our Zhang family."

"Shut up, Chengsi!" Zhang Yuanxin stopped his son's indiscriminate words, then gave Liu Zhenxuan a rare cup of hands, and said in a slightly more relaxed manner, "Liu Duwei, go back and tell Guo Governor that this is the case. This matter has nothing to do with our Zhang family, and our Zhang family has not yet reached the point of colluding with gangsters like Fengleitang. Don't worry, you let him accommodate us for two days, and I will tell the two elder brothers about this matter , the Zhang family will naturally give you an explanation for the Yangzhou government office, and the Zhang family will definitely clarify the dirty water that Fengleitang spilled."

After Liu Zhenxuan heard about it, he secretly rejoiced in his heart, and was hit by Lord Hou again, tsk tsk, Master Hou really counted everything.

Immediately, he still had a stern face, nodded indifferently, and replied in a deep voice: "Okay, I will give you two days. After two days, your Zhang family must give an explanation to my Houye, and use this weapon Explain the matter clearly. Otherwise, this matter will be with your Zhang family, hmph, there is no end!"

After finishing speaking, Liu Zhenxuan turned around resolutely, raised his right arm holding the saber high, and shouted loudly: "Listen to the order, withdraw from Gujing Lane, and return to Duwei's Mansion!"

"Here!!"

"Hoohooho!!"

With an order, more than a thousand people trotted neatly and mightily, and withdrew from Gujing Lane.

Zhang Yuanxin stopped at the gate of the ancestral house, watching the orderly and vigorous team going away, he couldn't help but worry.

Zhang Chengsi next to him looked at the team gradually leaving the alley, spat at Liu Zhenxuan's arrogant back, and spat: "Bastard bastard, you are so unscrupulous and domineering, it really gives you a good face."

As he said that, he murmured to Zhang Yuanxin: "Father, these Qiuba are becoming more and more arrogant. Otherwise, I will find my future father-in-law, and I must teach them a lesson."

"Put down your troublesome temper!"

Zhang Yuanxin looked at his son with dissatisfaction, and said in a low voice: "Your father-in-law can't rub the sand in his eyes. If you don't make progress, be careful that he withdraws from your marriage."

Zhang Chengsi provoked another reprimand for no reason, he was really aggrieved, so he could only groan resentfully, and lowered his head.

Zhang Yuanxin suddenly remembered something, and asked, "By the way, didn't your uncle ask you to plan with Cui Yizhen, a son of the Cui family, to open banks in Huaiyang and Jiangnan? Why do you stay at home every day?"

When Zhang Chengsi heard this, he immediately put on a bitter face, and sighed: "Father, don't talk about this matter. I am full of grievances when you talk about this matter."

Zhang Yuanxin frowned, looked at his son suspiciously, and said, "Huh? What's going on?"

"What else could be going on?" Zhang Chengsi said full of resentment, "Isn't it thanks to my good cousin? Now Mr. Cui trusts him a lot, and the two of them are so good that they wear the same clothes. A pair of pants."

"Go on, go on!"

"Recently, my cousin Chengzong found a distant relative from Goguryeo for Mr. Cui. Hey, the wonderful thing is that this Mr. Cui from Goguryeo is still a fool. He is as stupid as a pig but has as much money as sand and stones." .Recently, the three of them are fighting fiercely. Father, I heard that this bully from Goguryeo is also surnamed Cui, and now he is doing big business in the Jiangnan area..."

Chapter 783

After Zhang Yuanxin listened to his son's introduction of the origin of Cui Minghao in Goguryeo, he probably had a certain understanding in his chest.

Apparently, Cui Yizhen kicked out his precious son about the matter of Cui and Zhang's family planning bank accounts in Huaiyang and Jiangnan.

And the real instigator was not Cui Yizhen of the Qinghe Cui family, nor Cui Minghao, a son of an official from far away Goguryeo, but the unworthy son of his second brother's family-Zhang Chengzong.

Thinking of this, Zhang Yuanxin couldn't help but get angry. He didn't expect his son to be tricked by Zhang Chengzong, a bastard.

Good boy, he is not good at dealing with outsiders, but he is an expert at dealing with his own cousins.

Of course, in his eyes, Zhang Chengzong is too muddy to support the wall, and it may not be that his good second brother Zhang Yuanzhi is behind this.

He looked at his son who was not up to date, and scolded: "Useless things, they will be defeated by Zhang Chengzong's bastards. Hmph, get out of my room and read "Lu Shi Chun Qiu", learn from others." Lu Buwei's management methods and scheming tactics. Think carefully for yourself, where did you lose!"

Zhang Chengsi thought he would be scolded by his father, or even beaten up.Unexpectedly, his father's punishment was only to let him go back to his room to read a book. Feeling amnesty, he lowered his head and let out a soft oh, and fled in a flash.

Afterwards, Zhang Yuanxin held back his anger, waved his hands at the onlookers, and shouted: "What are you standing here looking at, don't you need to work? Hurry up, take these corpses to Yizhuang to deal with, Zhang The family never raises things for free."

A group of servants got to work when they heard the sound, and a group of two went forward to lift up the corpse and clean up the mess in front of the gate of the Zhang family's ancestral house.

Zhang Yuanxin's face was hostile, he squinted his eyes and took a few deep breaths, and said in a bitter voice: "Second brother, second brother, you are really unjust, but as an elder, you hide behind your back and play tricks to tear down my successor. It can’t just be this way!”

After talking about it for a while, Zhang Yuanxin suddenly remembered the matter of Fengleitang's framing, and he couldn't help showing a bit of luck on his face, and said to himself: "Ah, I almost forgot about it. By the way, I Why don't you report to the eldest brother about Fengleitang's planting of our Zhang family, and then talk to him about the inheritance? Hmph, we can't just let their second wife take advantage of it."

As soon as he thought about it, he did it, Zhang Yuanxin raised his legs, turned around, and rushed towards the house where Zhang Yuanli's lineage was located.
