Chang Cui's face also became a little ugly. In fact, he knew about these loopholes, but he had fooled the emperor. Unexpectedly, the Changsun family also knew about them, which really made him a little embarrassed.
But the embarrassment only lasted a moment. Chang Cui immediately regained his indifference and sneered in his heart. So what if the Changsun family knew about it? Do they still want to rebel?
Chang Cui said slowly: "This is decided by the Emperor. Please put the overall situation first, the head of the Changsun family. The Emperor will also give some comfort to the Changsun family. General Changsun is likely to be promoted to a general and given the title of County Duke. In addition, the court will also give some comfort to the Changsun family."
Li Huang will be demoted to guerrilla general and fined for one year as punishment!"
"It's better to put the overall situation first, and it's better to be fined for one year!"
The eldest grandson Nanfang laughed angrily, turned around and asked his brother: "Your son has earned you a general, will you take it?"
The eldest grandson Quanxu's face turned red, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Please tell Your Majesty, Mr. Chang, that I appreciate his kindness. I have decided to resign from all positions. I will never serve in the same palace as the person who killed my son."
Chang Cui shook his head, "Okay! Since you don't want to accept it, I can't help it, but this case has been closed and it is impossible to overturn it. If you want to take revenge privately, don't blame the court, which will deal with it impartially and strictly. Everything that will happen as a result
You will be responsible for the consequences yourself, bid farewell!"
Chang Cui cupped his hands, turned around and walked away.
Changsun Nanfang was silent for a moment and said slowly: "Implement the plan according to the plan! The whole family will leave in two groups and migrate to Longyou."
Changsun Nanfang actually knew very well that the emperor even tolerated the murder of Jin Wuwei, so why would he care about the murder of a descendant of a declining nobleman. However, he still had a glimmer of hope for the Guanlong nobles to jointly submit a petition, but the petition only received
The case was concluded in a deceptive way. The emperor could not offend the feudal town for himself, and Changsun Nanfang was completely desperate.
Fortunately, there is still a political power in Longyou that they can take refuge in. He wants the emperor to know that their eldest grandson family would rather give up everything in the court than accept this shameful settlement.
"You go make arrangements to clean up! I'm going to visit Dugu Lie and thank him for his efforts."
Changsun Nanfang arrived at Dugu Lie's mansion and unexpectedly found that Dugu Ming was also there, along with a guest.
Dugu Lie introduced to Changsun Nanfang: "This is the director of the intelligence point of Guanlong Jiedu Mansion in Chang'an. His name is Zhang Tan. He previously reported to King Qi what happened to Changsun's family. King Qi replied today.
Zhang Tan saluted to the eldest grandson Nanfang and said with a smile: "I have admired the eldest grandson family master for a long time!"
Changsun Nanfang quickly returned the gift, "Thank you, Manager Zhang, for reporting to King Qi what happened to the Changsun family. I wonder how King Qi will reply?"
Zhang Tan handed him a copy and said: "Because it is an eagle's letter and has relatively few words, please ask the head of the Changsun family to read it!"
Changsun Nanfang quickly took the Xinying copy and saw two sentences written on it. First, sincerely welcome the Changsun family to Longyou; secondly, please tell the head of the Changsun family that I promise to capture Li Huang alive and deliver it to him personally.
disposal.
Changsun Nanfang's nose suddenly became sore, and his eyes were blurred with tears. He choked with sobs and said, "Please tell His Highness King Qi that the Changsun family is willing to do the work of King Qi!"
Zhang Tan quickly said: "The head of the Changsun family is too polite. I don't know when the Changsun family will move to Longyou. We will do our best to help!"
Changsun Nanfang nodded: "We have already started to clean up. At this juncture, people will definitely be watching. Give it a few days and wait until the limelight is over. Then I will contact Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Tan wrote a contact address to Changsun Nanfang, then said goodbye and left.
The Dugu brothers invited their eldest grandson Nanfang to the inner hall and asked the maid to serve tea.
Dugu Ming said to Changsun Nanfang: "Yushi Zhongcheng Jingyu also came to me before and showed me the report. Frankly speaking, the report was just to calm the matter and make a fuss about the fact that there are no witnesses. They can make up stories as they please, and then find
A scapegoat, but there are many loopholes. I also told the eldest grandson family master before."
Changsun Nanfang nodded, "It's obvious that they won't touch Li Huang. They don't care about the life and death of Changsun's family at all. Not only did they fool us, but when we pointed out the loopholes, they directly threatened us, saying that we ignored the overall situation.
Saying that all consequences will be borne by the Changsun family if we dare to take revenge privately is actually forcing us to swallow this bitter pill."
Dugu Lie sighed softly, "So the Changsun family decided to move to Longyou?"
Changsun Nanfang laughed at himself: "Brother Dugu, do you think I'm too impulsive?"
Dugulie shook his head, "I don't know what choice I would make if the same thing happened to me, so I don't know if the Changsun family is impulsive?"
Changsun Nanfang shook his head, "Actually, we have been considering whether to go to Longyou in the past two years. I believe other families are the same. If it hadn't been for this, we would have continued to hesitate and worry about gains and losses. But the murder of Wu Lang seems to have
Beat me awake with a stick, and the dignified and supportive ministers, Taiwei, Hussar General, and Yan'an County Prince will be worse than the son of a rebellious general. Even a fourth-rank Minister of Punishment can threaten me face to face. I still have this court.
What is there to miss?
After going to Longyou, at least I was the first first-class minister to defect to King Qi. At least King Qi really took me seriously and promised to hand over Li Huang to me. Brother Dugu, if it were you, what would you choose?
"
Dugu Lie smiled and said: "I would rather be the head of a chicken than the queen of a cow!"
"Yes! That's what it means."
Dugu Lie nodded, "Then I wish the head of the Changsun family a safe journey!"
In the end, the Taibai Restaurant case was dropped because Changsun Quanxu resigned from the post of General Zuo Xiaowei, which really angered Emperor Li Heng. He immediately canceled the appeasement plan for Changsun's family and even reduced Li Huang's punishment to
A fine of three months' salary.
But this incident also made many people understand one thing. The Guanlong clan has become yesterday's flowers, and the Changsun family has been stepped on. The former Empress Changsun and the illustrious history of Changsun Wuji have also disappeared.
Soon, the turmoil in the Changsun family was replaced by another major event. The imperial court officially issued large coins and Qian Yuan treasures, one of which was worth ten small coins.
The currency value of Qianyuan Chongbao is only equivalent to two small coins, but it has to be used as ten small coins. Everyone knows that this is the imperial court plundering people's wealth. The fastest reaction is the rice price in Chang'an. On the day when the big coins are issued, the rice price will rise.
From 60 cents per meter to 120 cents per meter, the amount has doubled.
The streets of Chang'an were in an uproar, and the rice-grabbing craze broke out again.
At the same moment when everyone was paying attention to the Qianyuan treasure and the price of rice, the first group of twenty-two members of the Changsun family set off for their autumn outing to the manor in Chencang County.
A large amount of wealth of the Changsun family is stored in the Baoji Cabinet. The biggest advantage is that it can be withdrawn from another place. The hundreds of thousands of coins stored in the Chang'an Baoji Cabinet can be withdrawn from the Baoji Cabinet in Jincheng County.
There are also dozens of shops, manors and other real estate properties that have been entrusted to the care of the Dugu family.
Three days later, the second group of seven important people from the Changsun family set off in Longyou's official carriage. This was the carriage used by Guan Long to enter the memorial hall. It was guarded by special warriors and had a pass issued by the political hall. Anyone could
