In a private room on the third floor of Chang'an Taibai Building, there was laughter and shouting. From time to time, the sound of dishes falling to the ground and breaking and the cry of a woman could be heard.
The bartender ran to the counter with a frown on his face and said, "Shopkeeper, Haitangfang also wants five pots of Jiannan Shaochun and two roasted whole lambs!"
"Alas!" The shopkeeper sighed, shook his head and said, "You can't afford to offend these people, go ahead and make arrangements!"
A middle-aged drinker laughed and said: "You still sigh when you have business?"
The shopkeeper shook his head and said, "Your Majesty, you don't know. These people are freeloaders without any money. We can't afford to offend them, so we can only suffer losses in vain."
"Oh? Who is so awesome that he dares to attack the autumn wind of Taibai Restaurant?"
"Have you ever heard of those descendants of the military governor of the feudal town, the feudal town party in Chang'an who does all kinds of evil?"
The middle-aged drinker shrank in fear. It turned out that it was them and they really couldn't afford to offend him.
Several drinkers at another wine table were also talking quietly.
"What is the feudal town party? Why haven't I heard of it?"
"That's because you just came to Chang'an and haven't tasted their power yet."
"Tell me!"
"The sons of several military governors who were held hostage in Chang'an. Li Huaixian, Li Baochen, Tian Chengsi, Li Zhengji, and Liang Chongyi. The sons of these five military governors formed a gang in Chang'an and called themselves the feudal town party. They
He led hundreds of warriors to bully men and women in Chang'an, causing harm to the people. Even the wives and daughters of officials were not spared. Countless people complained, but even if they complained to the emperor, it was of no use, and even the emperor did not dare to provoke them. "
At this time, a fierce voice came from the stairs above, "Why haven't you brought the wine yet? Why don't you bring a fire to your bird shop!"
"I'm coming!"
The shopkeeper hurriedly agreed and went up personally with several jugs of wine, "The whole lamb is still roasting, it will be ready soon!"
The drinkers didn't dare to eat anymore, they were paying the bill one after another, and eating in a restaurant with the feudal town party. Unexpected disaster might happen to them. The best way to avoid disaster is to stay away from them.
Not long after, there was only one drinker left on the entire second floor, the middle-aged drinker. He turned his head slightly and looked at the stairs on the third floor. At this time, a group of people came down from the stairs, and a large group of warriors surrounded five young people.
The people were all around twenty years old, some were tall and mighty, and some were wretched and thin. Everyone wore silk ribbons and gold, and their eyes were raised to the sky, looking arrogant.
These five young men were the sons of the governors of the five major vassal towns who had been put as hostages in Chang'an. Each of them had an official position, whether it was a general or a young minister. Of course, it was a nominal official position.
Anyway, they had nothing to do, so they formed a gang and played together. They were lawless and no one dared to take care of them. They made Chang'an a mess. They were more ruthless and bad than the Shennong Party back then. I don't know how many people died at their hands and how many people were harmed.
The family was broken up and people died.
At this time, the stairs were a bit narrow, and a young drinker happened to be going upstairs. He couldn't avoid it, but bumped his shoulders with Li Baochen's son Li Huang. Li Huang, who was drunk, suddenly became furious and grabbed the young drinker's hair.
, pulled out the dagger and struck him hard on the neck, blood spurted out, and the young drinker fell to the ground and struggled.
Several of the accomplices laughed loudly, "My virtuous brother is still quick with his hands and feet, and can kill a sheep faster!"
"It's much more satisfying to kill someone than to slaughter a sheep!"
"Yes! Yes!"
Everyone laughed and went out, "Go to Baihualou and have a good night of fun, woman!"
The young drinker twitched a few times and gradually became motionless. Blood flowed all over the stairs.
At this time, an old man who looked like a butler ran up and shook the young drinker's shoulders in fear, "Master! Master!"
"He is dead!"
The middle-aged drinker said slowly: "He was killed by Li Huang, Li Baochen's son, and his throat was cut. Even the gods can't save him."
"Oh my God!"
The old housekeeper knelt on the ground and shouted: "This is the fifth young master of the Changsun family, God!"
The middle-aged drinker's face became serious. The deceased was actually a descendant of the eldest grandson's family. Now the matter was serious.
The middle-aged drinker's name is Liao Hua, who is the deputy director of Guanlong Jiedu Mansion's Chang'an Intelligence Station. His mission is to keep an eye on Liang Chongyi's youngest son, Liang Baoer, who is a young man with a wretched appearance and a thin body. These demons are going to
He walked to the Baihuayuan diagonally across the street and kept staring at it. Unexpectedly, the deceased was actually the son of the eldest son's family.
Liao Hua found an opportunity and secretly went downstairs from the outer staircase at the back door. Returning to the intelligence station, he found the supervisor Zhang Tan and reported what happened at Taibai Restaurant.
Zhang Tan is really in a bit of a dilemma. They can pretend not to know about this matter, but the Changsun family and the Dugu family are allies. If anything happens to the Dugu family, they will not be able to explain it to His Highness Prince Qi.
After much deliberation, he decided to go find Dugu Ming.
"Let's go to Dugu Mansion, let's go now!"
Dugu Ming and Zhang Tan are very familiar with each other, and they often interact with each other. After listening to Liao Hua's narration, Dugu Ming was so shocked that he couldn't speak for a long time. He usually focused on the top and didn't pay much attention to the bottom. He didn't
I know that there is still a feudal town party.
Dugu Ming frowned and asked, "When did these people become so arrogant?"
Zhang Tan said solemnly: "As far as I know, starting from last year, the imperial court moved them all to Changxingfang in order to better monitor them. This made it easier for them to form gangs. The thing they became famous for was beating up the Jinwu Guards."
"I think I've heard a little bit about it, can you tell me more about it?"
"This started when they broke the curfew. They liked to go out at night. After the gate was closed, they took out the sergeant in charge of the gate and beat them half to death. They went back and forth, and no one dared to stop them.
Probably last summer, the five of them and more than a hundred samurai were making noise on East Street. They happened to encounter a group of Jinwu Guards. A conflict broke out between the two sides. I heard that seven Jinwu Guards were killed and more than 20 were injured. The samurai
More than a dozen people were killed and dozens injured. Afterwards, General Lu Guang'an of the Jinwu Guards who was on duty was dismissed from his post. The imperial court compromised with them by giving each of the five men a gold medal for the night march.
Later, they took hundreds of people out at night, and the Jinwu Guards did not dare to control them. The feudal town party became famous from that time. They killed people at every turn, and were so arrogant that the court did not dare to control them. Even the prince washed his horse.
Wang Zan's wife and daughter were snatched away by them, not only insulted, but also seriously injured, and finally nothing happened."
"Appeasement and compromise will only bring more shame to the court!"
Dugu Ming let out a long sigh and said to the two of them: "The fifth man they killed this time should be Sun Tai, the son of Sun Quanxu, the general of Zuo Xiaowei. This is indeed a bit of a big trouble."
At this time, the housekeeper walked down the hall and said: "Sir, the lord has sent someone over to ask you to go to the main residence."
Dugu Ming knew very well that something happened to the Changsun family.
He thought for a while and said: "I think this matter is very important. You should report it to His Highness King Qi in time."
Zhang Tan nodded, "Thank you, Prince Consort, for the reminder. We will send an eagle letter to Longyou early tomorrow morning."
