I am Li Shen and Li Shimin, the free kings of the Tang Dynasty

Wang Zhengyi followed the county magistrate to the study of County Magistrate Zheng.

County Magistrate Zheng was making tea and saw that Wang Zhengyi was quite enthusiastic.

"Brother Wang is here, please take a seat."

"Meet Mr. Ming."

Wang Zhengyi bowed and sat down.

"Brother Wang, are you here to call for justice?"

County Magistrate Zheng poured Wang Zhengyi a cup of tea and asked with a smile.

"Wang, I dare not. Your Excellency will act in accordance with the law and be fair and strict."

Wang Zhengyi replied, with some resentment in his tone.

"Haha, brother Wang really came here to call for punishment.

Brother Wang, if you have anything to say, please speak directly."

The county magistrate laughed and didn't care about Wang Zhengyi's rudeness.

"Mingshou, I just don't understand why the verdict has to be changed. Could it be that these people have important backgrounds?"

Wang Zhengyi finally couldn't help but ask.

County Magistrate Zheng calmly took a sip of tea and said softly:

"Since my brother has already guessed it, why are you still asking?"

As expected, Wang Zhengyi thought to himself.

"Then can you tell Wang who is behind them?"

At least Wang Zhengyi wants to get to the bottom of this matter. If he can get justice, that would be great. But if they really can't afford to offend, they also know who will take their fate.

County Magistrate Zheng glanced at Wang Zhengyi, pretended to think for a moment, and then said:

"Hey, Brother Wang, my Zheng family and your Wang family have always been friends, we are old friends, and we have known each other for hundreds of years.

Well, I'll just tell you straight.

These guards are the guards of the residences of important figures in the capital. Just think about it, which family in Chang'an City can be so generous?

The guards used gold bars.

Whose guard has such skills and knows etiquette?"

Magistrate Zheng has given enough hints.

Wang Zhengyi savored it carefully, and suddenly his eyes narrowed. He asked in surprise:

"Could it be that the mansion is talking about Prince Ji?"

Magistrate Zheng picked up the teacup and sipped the tea without saying a word, neither nodding to acknowledge nor denying.

But the answer is obvious.

"Thank you for telling me the truth, Mr. Ming."

Wang Zhengyi quickly stood up and bowed. This was very important.

"Brother Wang, you don't have to be polite. Our two families are old friends.

But my brother, this is no small matter. No one in Chang'an City is an ordinary person.

Especially this person, he is so frightening that my Zheng family avoids him whenever they see him.

After you go back, Brother Wang, you should discuss this with your family and make plans."

"Thank you for your advice, Mr. Ming. I will go back and discuss it with my clan members right now.

I, the player, will remember this favor today and will repay you handsomely in the future."

Wang Zhengyi bowed, then stood up and said goodbye. He had more important things to do.

"Since my brother is busy, I won't try to keep you. I'll send him off."

The county magistrate also stood up and said.

The county magistrate sent Wang Zhengyi out.

Wang Zhengyi got into his carriage, said he was going home, and fell into deep thought.

The county magistrate didn’t know many things, and the Wang family received bad news one after another.

First, two fourth-rank officials of his own Wang family were slapped in the face by Ji Wang Li Shen in the street, and they lost face.

Now they can't even hold their heads up in the court, and their positions as assistant ministers have come to an end.

How could the position of Shangshu allow such tainted people to take office?

Then we received news from Chang'an City that the Wang family's business in Chang'an City was deliberately targeted.

Malicious bidding caused them to suffer heavy losses in their business.

Even the workshop has stopped working.

Now another incident happened: his daughter was slapped in the face in the street by people from Prince Ji's mansion.

Now it seems that this matter is not simple.

Wang Zhengyi took the carriage and did not return to his own mansion, but went directly to the old house.

A quarter of an hour later, the patriarch and elders of the Wang family sat together.

"Justice, why did you call us here?"

An elder of the tribe asked.

"Father, and all the uncles, I have something to report.

Yesterday, my daughter Wanqing was beaten in the street. "

"Justice, you gathered a few of us old guys just for this? Why didn't the perpetrators get severe punishment?"

An elder of the tribe interrupted Wang Zhengyi and asked again.

"Uncle Hui, it is true. This is what I want to report today."

Wang Zhengyi nodded.

"Then tell me, who is the other party?"

The clan leader, Wang Zhengyi's father, also asked.

“Father, I just thought of this when I came back. This matter may be related to what we are facing now.

The man behind the scenes is none other than Prince Ji Li Shen."

As soon as Wang Zhengyi finished speaking, there was an uproar.

"Prince Ji Li Shen?"

"What? It's Prince Ji again."

They guessed that the first two incidents were related to King Ji, but they didn't expect that it was King Ji who beat up their clan members this time.

What on earth is this Prince Ji trying to do?

"How did our Wang family offend Prince Ji? Why is he targeting us?"

"This is really too much. Do you really think that my Wang family is so easy to bully?"

Several elders of the clan slammed the table in indignation.

After all, their Wang family is a famous and prestigious family. They had their glorious times and were of royal origin.

I have never been bullied like this.

"Okay, now is not the time to be angry. We must first figure out why Prince Ji wants to deal with our Wang family."

The head of the Wang family stopped everyone from talking.

"My dear uncles, my father is right, the most important thing right now is to find out the truth.

Prince Ji is very powerful now. If a fight really breaks out, my Wang family will definitely not be a match.

Even the Five Surnames are now unwilling to easily provoke Prince Ji."

Wang Zhengyi spoke.

"Yes, Prince Ji has become a powerful figure now. As the vanguard of the royal family, the five families are unwilling to waste their strength on Prince Ji.

By then, even if they join forces to defeat King Ji, they will be seriously injured and may be taken advantage of by others. "

"It is precisely because of this that Prince Ji is so unscrupulous and overbearing."

No one wants to provoke Prince Ji because everyone can see clearly that Prince Ji is a troublemaker in the royal family.

There is no benefit in fighting him to death, it will only deplete your own strength.

“Everyone, we have no grudge against King Ji. In two of the three revenges, King Ji revealed his identity.

I feel that his move is more like a warning to the Wang family and revenge."

The head of the Wang family analyzed. If they really wanted to deal with them, they must be very covert in the early stage so that they would not notice.

"What the clan leader said is correct, but we don't know why he is taking revenge on us, and we haven't done anything to offend him recently."

Everyone agreed.

Another elder thought for a moment and said:

“There must be something going on that we don’t know about.

He first struck two of our officials, then our property, and finally the Daughter of Justice.”

"and many more."

The Wang family leader suddenly interrupted, and everyone's eyes turned to the leader.

Wang Zhengyi asked:

"Father, is there something wrong?"

The head of the Wang family glanced at everyone:

"Don't you think the last thing is a little strange?"
