Kidnapped by Princess Changle at the beginning

I don't want to lose face?

He was depressed.

He planned to attack Chen Chu's arrogance, but who knew, he had fooled himself.

Without saying a word, he walked out of the yard in silence.

Just in time, I bumped into Cheng Yaojin who was rushing back.

When Li Er saw Cheng Yaojin, he became impatient, pressed Cheng Yaojin against the wall, and said viciously: "Cheng Zhijie, I warn you that if Chen Chu wants to cooperate with you in the ice-making business, you must not agree to it." , otherwise, I will not forgive you."

"what……"

Cheng Yaojin was dumbfounded, he still hadn't figured out what happened.

He nodded subconsciously: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, even if Chen Chu forces me with a knife, I will not agree. I have the Chang'an Da Da Da Da Da Da Restaurant."

Only then did Li Er let Cheng Yaojin go with satisfaction, flicked his sleeves, and walked away.

Cheng Yaojin walked into the courtyard and asked curiously, "Second brother, what's wrong with the shopkeeper?"

Chen Chu didn't raise her head, "His head was caught by the door!"

Cheng Yaojin: "..."

In this world, only Chen Chu dared to scold His Majesty like that!

……

Sun Wuji, Gao Shilian, Wang Gui, Wei Zheng, Fang Xuanling, Li Jing, Qin Qiong... more than a dozen high-ranking officials under his sect sat upright.

Dali Temple Minister Wei Ting looked at the crowd, with a hint of bitterness on the corner of his mouth: "My lords, Dali Temple has done its best, and I have sent the most capable officials under my command to search around Chang'an City, but found nothing. The soap, like It was as if it had fallen from the sky, without any traces. It is hard to find the businessman behind the scenes... I went to check it myself yesterday. There is a shopkeeper surnamed Wu in the soap store. That guy was originally from Chongyifang , but after my people arrived at Chongyifang, they asked around, and none of the people around knew Shopkeeper Wu, it was really strange."

Li Daozong, Shangshu of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, went on to say: "There are many masters in our criminal department, but they have been chasing for a few days, but they have found nothing. They often disappear when there is a clue. Everyone, I think this is not easy... "

Everyone looked at each other.

All of you here are important ministers of the court.

When everyone's interests were damaged, they all thought of finding out the behind-the-scenes businessman of the soap specialty store and let him pay for the loss.

Who would have thought that after using most of the court's power, they would get nothing.

A haze enveloped everyone's hearts.

Especially Changsun Wuji, whose face was extremely gloomy.

This time, his eldest grandson's family suffered the most.

More importantly, his uncle Gao Shilian hoarded soap because of his instigation.

Snapped.

At this time, Wei Zheng slapped the table and said angrily, "Hmph, it's unreasonable for a small businessman to dare to bully us. My lords, what are you waiting for, seal up that soap store immediately."

"Correct!"

"Master Wei is right!"

"There are so many dreams in the night, this matter can't be delayed any longer!"

Wei Zheng's proposal was unanimously approved by everyone.

Li Daozong nodded and stood up: "Leave this matter to the Ministry of Punishment. I will send people to find a reason to seal up the soap store and arrest the businessman behind the scenes. We will report to His Majesty when we catch him. "

"Thank you, Master Li!"

"It's not too late to do this!"

Li Daozong left in a hurry.

Everyone waited for the news at the door.

Some officials served tea several times, but none of the people present was in the mood to drink tea.

Changsun Wuji was very annoyed, because he lost the most!

Gao Shilian is very innocent, because he was fooled into the pit by Changsun Wuji!

Fang Xuanling was very sad, because he had been sleeping in the study for several days!

Wei Zheng is even more uncomfortable, because he can't even enter the backyard now, let alone pull Mrs. Wei's hand!

Soon, Li Daozong came back.

Everyone stood up clattering.

"Master Li, how are you?"

"Have you caught the businessman behind the scenes?"

"When will we get our money back?"

Everyone is very anxious.

But Li Daozong shook his head feebly.

Changsun Wuji had a bad premonition, and quickly asked, "What happened?"

Li Daozong glanced at everyone and said: "I personally led the people from the Ministry of Criminal Justice to weave a reason to seal up the soap store. Who knew that the soap store had been surrounded by the Longwu army, except for buying and selling soap. No one is allowed in."

"His Majesty did it..."

Someone exclaimed.

……

Chapter 45 Husband, Are You Happy?

The Imperial Army of the Tang Dynasty was divided into the Imperial Army of the Southern Yamen and the Imperial Army of the Northern Yamen.

The Nanya Forbidden Army is the standing army of the Sixteen Guards, which is under the command of the Ministry of War and managed by the Minister of the Ministry of War and the left and right prime ministers.

The Beiya imperial army is the emperor's private soldiers whose main duty is to protect the emperor and the royal family. They are directly dispatched by the emperor and are not subject to anyone's control.

His Majesty Li Er has six personal soldiers: left and right Habayashi Army, left and right Longwu Army, and left and right Shenwu Army.

The Longwu Army is the army with the strongest combat effectiveness, the largest number of people, and the most well-equipped army among the six armies of the Beiya. They usually train in the garrison and rarely appear.

Now, even the most powerful Longwu Army has appeared, what does this mean?

For a moment, everyone present was restless.

Could it be that something big is going to happen in Datang?

Just then, an official hurried in.

It is Liu Jianren, the governor of Jingzhao Prefecture.

Liu Jianren was sweating profusely, out of breath, and said: "My lords, I'm afraid that I won't be able to complete the matter you told me..."

what?

The crowd was stunned again.

A few hours ago, Changsun Wuji and the others had made up their minds and sent someone to send a message to Liu Jianren, asking him to quickly send someone to investigate the details of the soap store.

I thought that Liu Jianren, as the governor of Jingzhao, was very familiar with the affairs of Chang'an City, so he would be able to find out the truth.

Who knew that Liu Jianren came to complain?

Changsun Wuji looked unhappy and asked, "Lord Liu, what's going on?"

Liu Jianren looked distressed, and said: "My lords, just now, Baiqisi sent a message to the subordinate, telling the subordinate not to pursue matters related to soap. If he dares to pursue it, the consequences will be unimaginable. How dare the subordinate disobey."

Baiqisi?

"hiss……"

Baiqisi is a special force established by His Majesty Li Er himself, specializing in intelligence, assassination and so on.

There is no Baiqisi who does not know about the affairs of the world.

For example, once, Fang Xuanling was punished by Mrs. Fang to kneel on the washboard, and His Majesty Li Er found out the next day.

For another example, there was a time when Changsun Wuji was hanging out with a maid in the back garden. Mrs. Changsun didn't know about it, but His Majesty Li Er knew.

It can be said that Baiqisi is a knife that His Majesty Li Er hangs on the heads of Baiguan.

Of course, His Majesty Li Er has been on the throne for so long, and he has never used Baiqisi to deal with officials in the court.

But now, the Longwu Army is dispatched, and the Baiqi Division is dispatched.

what does this mean?

For a moment, no one dared to imagine.

Just when everyone was at a loss.

boom.

Changsun Wuji slapped the table and suddenly shouted back the left and right low-ranking officials, even Liu Jianren, the governor of Jingzhao Mansion, was kicked out by him.

When there were only a group of bigwigs left in the room, and all of them were officials who had suffered losses in the soap business, Changsun Wuji said leisurely: "Everyone, let's go, our losses are destined to be irrecoverable." came back……"

"What? How can I do that? My one thousand guan!" Wei Zheng said with a heartache.

Gao Shilian asked curiously: "Wuji, what do you know? None of you here are outsiders, why do you hide..."

Changsun Wuji shook his head helplessly: "Everyone, don't you understand? Why did soap appear overnight? Why is it so expensive? Why does Your Majesty reward ministers frequently recently? Why is there more and more money in the internal treasury? Your Majesty Why have you stopped mentioning the appropriation of money from the Ministry of Civil Affairs to the internal treasury recently?"

A series of rhetorical questions.

Everyone suddenly realized.

Qin Qiong said: "Everyone, my leg injury has recurred, so let's take a step first."

Fang Xuanling said: "My wife is celebrating her birthday today, I have to go back and get ready."

Wei Zheng said, "I have an appointment, so I bid farewell."

Changsun Wuji waved his hand and left without saying a word.

The crowd dispersed.

Everyone understands.

There is no behind-the-scenes businessman in this matter.

It was His Majesty who did it.

But, dare not say.

I could only smash my teeth and swallow it in my stomach.

The mute eats Coptis chinensis, and can't tell the pain.

Do you want to reason with His Majesty?

It's unreasonable!

Soap is voluntary to buy.

The price is also speculated by us people.

To put it bluntly, it is all willing.

Originally, everyone had discussed this matter, even if it was unreasonable, the loss must be recovered, because there are a group of court bigwigs, and they can't be a businessman?

Who knows, this businessman is too tough.

A group of people can only leave in despair.

Gao Shilian walked beside Changsun Wuji, and said in a low voice, "Wuji, to say something disrespectful, your Majesty's doing this is somewhat unjust..."

Changsun Wuji glanced back, but shook his head: "Uncle, you are wrong. Although I lost millions, I dare not blame Your Majesty at all. On the contrary, I think Your Majesty's move is really beautiful. , perhaps, he only made this decision because of the shortage of the internal treasury. The target is not me, but the rich people in Chang'an City. Moreover, all of this is a coincidence. ..."

Even if you kill Changsun Wuji, you won't believe that the soap bubbles are man-made.

Because, in this world, no one has such ability.

The two left the palace one after the other with long sighs.

……

Just when the court ministers were so secretive and kept silent, they dared not talk about soap anymore.
