Is it possible that Duan Zhixuan is really determined to be associated with these aristocratic families, regardless of the interests of the empire?
You must know that Duan Zhixuan is not an idle prince, the right guard army he controls is the elite of the empire.
If this guy is for personal gain, he might do something treacherous.
Although the personal relationship between the monarch and his ministers used to be relatively good, in the face of the interests of the family, the personal relationship seemed a bit insignificant.
Thinking of this, Li Shimin was filled with anger and his teeth were itching with hatred.
Could it be that the benefits Duan Zhixuan gained from cooperating with the family were more than what I gave him?
I think at the beginning, Duan Zhixuan was just a gangster. If I hadn't had a keen eye and carefully trained him, this guy wouldn't have known where he would be a gangster!
Who would have thought that now that you are the Duke of the country, you are still not satisfied?
Could there be some other reason?
Looking at the aristocratic family's desperate efforts to besiege Yang Fan, it is obvious that it cannot be as simple as Duan Zhixuan's second son having an arm chopped off.
After all, what these aristocratic families look down upon the most is martial artists.
Moreover, Duan Zhixuan does not have such strong appeal.
If it was just a small profit, no matter how courageous Duan Zhixuan was, he would not dare to risk the whole world's disapproval by refuting my face!
Because no matter in terms of friendship or interests, if it is just a small profit, it is impossible for him to take such a big risk.
The reason for uniting the aristocratic families to besiege Yang Fan was obviously not just to vent their anger.
The ultimate goal is to defeat Yang Fan directly.
What is there in Yang Fan's house now that this group of people can miss?
These aristocratic families are wolves that don't let go of hawks before they see rabbits, and what they can find attractive is by no means simple.
It goes without saying that it is of course glass that is worth the same as gold.
Yang Fan has only been operating the business for more than half a year, and his income has already equaled Datang's entire year's taxes.
This is a huge windfall!
Even though he had access to the world, Li Shimin coveted this money. No wonder these aristocratic families who only cared about their own interests were so concerned about it.
Apparently he wanted to bring down Yang Fan and learn how to make colored glaze.
Don’t these aristocratic families know that most of the profits from Yang Fan’s glass business are actually given to me?
The answer is of course yes.
So the question is, since they know that I am the person behind the scenes, these aristocratic families still dare to deal with Yang Fan blatantly.
On another level, it was actually challenging him as the emperor, and obviously wanted to take a piece of fat out of his mouth.
That must be it...
Duan Zhixuan united these aristocratic families to deal with Yang Fan, apparently to seize the glaze manufacturing method in Yang Fan's hands.
His Majesty Li Er glared at Duan Zhixuan fiercely and secretly gritted his teeth.
This complimentary duke is really too much. After all this time, he is still looking at that small amount of money.
The money and fiefdom I rewarded him will be more than enough for his descendants, right?
His Majesty Li Er moved away from Duan Zhixuan with some disappointment.
His eyes turned to several senior ministers in high positions. The old and frail Fang Xuanling was waiting for Tang Jian, Li Jing, the cowardly and ingenious Hou Junji, Xu Jingzong, Ma Zhou who had not yet matured, Cen Wenwen...
On the other hand, military commanders such as Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde only participated in military affairs and never participated in court affairs.
Changsun Wuji, his brother-in-law, was brilliant in his strategy, but he also had too many ambitions.
What's more important is that Changsun Wuji is still the leader of the Guanlong family. Although it is impossible for him to rebel, he is still a person who has no profit and cannot afford to do it early.
It's okay that he is in power, but if he is gone, none of the princes will be a match for this brother-in-law.
As his eyes moved, His Majesty Li Er suddenly felt a sense of sadness in his heart.
Among all the famous officials in the dynasty, no one dared to face these aristocratic families. It is so sad!
Once upon a time, I even claimed to be: "All the heroes in the world are at my disposal!"
But now I look at it, old and young, looking at the whole palace of courtiers, there is no successor!
A sense of crisis due to lack of talents came directly to my heart, and the danger was a hundred times more serious than the crisis facing the family before me.
It seems that we can't wait any longer. Once Fang Xuanling and others pass away, no one will be able to support the entire court.
It seems that the current court needs some fresh blood to join it, otherwise the court will be just a pool of stagnant water.
Is there really no one left in the Tang Dynasty? In fact, it is not so absolute. The son-in-law who is competing with the aristocratic family in front of him is the key to breaking the situation.
Although Bang Chui usually looks carefree and even naive, inside he is a young talent with his own bottom line, a big heart, and a bright mind.
It seems that the only way to stir up this stagnant water is to use him.
While he was thinking alone, His Majesty Li Er heard a shouting sound in his ears: "Cui, don't be so shameless and speak politely to me. You claim to be from a scholarly family, which is an insult to this scholarly family.
A few words, have you read all the books you have read over the years about dogs?"
"Haha... Come to think of it, after working in the court all my life, I only got a fourth-grade minister of civil service. If I were you, I would have killed me by a headlong collision. Besides, it wasn't your son's hand that was chopped off. Blind
What are you worrying about? Could it be that Duan Guan is really related to you by blood?"
As soon as these words came out, the ministers opened their mouths in disbelief.
If you really dare to say this, aren't you afraid that Cui Yongping and Duan Zhixuan will fight to the death?
Besides, a fourth-grade official is still relatively young?
You must know that 99% of people will not reach this official rank in their lifetime.
What's more important is that these words are too vicious, almost the same as swearing in the market.
This is not a mallet that only knows how to use hands!
Even the censors and remonstrating ministers are ashamed of their sharp tongue.
Li Shimin raised his head, looking for fame, and when he took a look, he felt very happy. Sure enough, it was only the hammer that could break the situation.
Didn't Duan Zhixuan get so angry when he didn't see Cui Yongping?
All the aristocratic families who showed off their power just now refrained from talking to each other, for fear that Yang Fan's vicious words would be directed at them.
If they really get scolded, they can't afford to lose face!
Li Jing, who was standing at the head of the row of generals, was looking at Yang Fan with squinted eyes, feeling that this young man was indeed extraordinary.
Although I had heard about Yang Fan's deeds before, now that I saw it with my own eyes, I realized that I had underestimated this young man before.
There is actually no difference between being a human being and doing things and marching and fighting. As the saying goes, people have no normal state and water has no constant shape.
Only by making the enemy unable to figure out his own tactics can he be surprised and deliver a fatal blow.
More importantly, Li Jing felt that Yang Fan was calm-minded, thick-skinned, neither arrogant nor impetuous when things happened, and had all the qualifications to become a famous general.
Although Li Jing has lived in seclusion these years, he has always been observing the dynamics of the court, and of course he knows that these aristocratic families may not have good intentions when they unite.
