In the private room on the third floor of Datang BBQ Shop, Luo Zhang, after some discussions with King Wei, decided to share the profits from all profits from Datang BBQ Shop, the Royal Furniture Store, and the properties and shops received from the Dou family. King Wei occupies 30%, Zhao Tianhu occupies 50%, Luo Zhang occupies 50%, and the remaining 15%. Luo Zhang will pay tribute to His Majesty's House of Internal Affairs, which is commonly known as the small treasury. The word "royal" can be It's not for nothing. His Majesty didn't say it. Luo Zhang also had to make arrangements. Of course, Luo Zhang was not paying tribute in money, but paying tribute to Moutai and Dahongpao. These require real money and silver to be exchanged from the system. It can be done in a day or two. , Luo Zhang can bear it, but as time goes by, no matter how much Luo Zhang earns, it will not be enough for His Majesty.
King Wei has no objection at all to this. He currently accounts for 30% of the business. It seems that he has taken advantage of it. How can he have any objection? I think his monthly share will be much higher in the future. I'm afraid he will laugh then. They can't even close together.
In the middle of the night, when Luo Zhang, who was in a happy mood, returned home, the moon was already on the branches. Tonight, he did not have to go back to Gao Yang's room, but went to Mei Niang's room. This was also Gao Yang's arrangement. Gao Yang was not like what history said. So arrogant and domineering, after a period of contact, Gao Yang still has a good character. No, considering Mei Niang, she felt that she could not occupy Luo Zhang alone, so she had to excuse herself from being unwell these days and let Luo Zhang go to Mei Niang's room. In fact, Luo Zhang knew it well and did not refute it. After all, Mei Niang and him could only be secretive these days, and there was indeed nothing aboveboard. It was indeed a bit wronged by Mei Niang.
As for why Gaoyang's history turned out like that, Luo Zhang analyzed that it might have a lot to do with Fang Jun, that idiot.
At this time, Gao Yang is her original temperament. As for what will happen in the future, Luo Zhang will not consider it for the time being. This kind of thing can be discussed at that time.
After a night of romance, Mei Niang almost burst out the pain of lovesickness in the past few days.
Luo Zhang can be said to be in pain and happiness. Of course, he is mostly happy. If it hurts, just eat some kidneys.
Luo Zhang was happy here, but the Changsun Mansion was shrouded in gloom. Even the servants in the entire mansion did not dare to walk too fast for fear of causing punishment from the head of the family.
The head of the family has been staying in the hall with the family elders since he returned from the morning until night.
From time to time, there would be yells and scolds in the hall, and even the sound of things being smashed, and the body of the servant being dragged out from inside. Seeing this, it would be strange for the servant not to be afraid, although I don’t know. Something happened, but it was definitely something big.
"Master, is there really no room for redemption in this matter?" the third elder said with a look of reluctance.
"Room? If you want the Changsun family to be buried with you, there is room. Otherwise, this is the only way!" Changsun Wuji said with a cold face. He didn't know what the third elder meant, but he couldn't. Once the fourth elder and the sixth elder were saved, Elder, he has no doubt that your majesty will attack his eldest grandson's family. Maybe it would be better if the eldest grandson is alive, but now that the eldest grandson has been dead for so many years, no matter how good the relationship is, it will sometimes fade, so at this time, a strong man must be determined to cut off his wrist.
"But..." The fifth elder wanted to speak, but was interrupted by Changsun Wuji with a wave of his hand: "There is nothing but, everything is their own fault. They dare to accept any money. Is this money they can accept?"
"Everyone is obsessed with profit and falls in the eyes of money. If something goes wrong, they will naturally have to pay the price. This is not mentioned. Although His Majesty did not point out this matter, he has already made it very clear. For the sake of the two of them, he has to set up a relationship. The future of Chong'er has changed. The road I originally paved for him in Youwu Guard has all come to nothing now. He has been transferred to Qianniu Guard as a leading soldier. I don't know how to tell Chong'er!" Changsun Wuji was a little tired. said.
Now everyone in the hall stopped talking. Indeed, as the head of the family said, some money cannot be collected. If nothing happens, that's it. If something happens, you must bear it yourself. If you want to drag the family into trouble, that's not right. It's possible, people have selfish motives, and if things concern themselves, they won't speak up, so how can they speak up? Could it be that we have to save them even if the family is in decline? They are not that noble yet.
At this time, two people ran in from outside. As soon as they came in, they knelt down and burst into tears.
"Master, please save us. We are really out of our minds. Please beg your Majesty, Master, for mercy. We are willing to withdraw the money we have received. We only hope that Your Majesty can spare our lives." In the hall, The Sixth Elder cried with tears and snot in his nose.
As for the fourth elder, he said nothing, held his head high, and looked very stubborn, as if he still felt that he was right.
Everyone just sighed when they saw this, but no one helped to speak. What they just said was very clear. These two people couldn't save it at all. Since they couldn't save it, they would talk nonsense and only add to the annoyance.
Looking at the Fourth Elder and the Sixth Elder who were kneeling on the ground and pleading, Changsun Wuji felt sad in his heart. He didn't want to deal with the Fourth Elder and the Sixth Elder, but he couldn't do it. If he didn't deal with it, the family would be in trouble, so for the sake of the family, he just Can handle both of them.
With a long sigh, Changsun Wuji waved his hand, and saw several Changsun family guards rushing in and tying up the two elders who were kneeling on the ground.
"Don't tie me up. I am the Sixth Elder. I have lived and died for my family. I have shed blood and tears for my family. I have..." The Sixth Elder kept struggling, disturbing the guards from binding him.
But the fourth elder allowed himself to be bound by the guards, as if he had accepted his fate.
No matter how much the Sixth Elder struggled, it was all in vain, and he was finally tied up tightly.
With Changsun Wuji closing his eyes and acquiescing, the guards dragged the fourth elder and the sixth elder Zhang down.
The entire hall fell silent upon seeing this scene.
As for Changsun Wuji, he did not care about this matter anymore. After the death of the four elders and Liu Zhanglao, they would naturally be given a grand burial, and their families would also be properly settled. This was the last thing Changsun Wuji could do for them. But he still had to go to Changsun Chong to tell him His Majesty's decision. I wonder if Chong'er would be devastated if he knew the news.
Luo Zhang didn't know what happened to Changsun's family. Even if he knew, he would laugh endlessly.
Early the next morning, Luo Zhang got up refreshed. After a night of moisturizing, Mei Niang was glowing with glory. Her whole temperament became different, and she couldn't stop smiling at the corner of her mouth.
Luo Zhang worked hard many times last night. According to Mei Niang, he just wanted to spread the branches and leaves of the Luo family. Luo Zhang couldn't refute this, but he didn't know if he could gain anything.
After having breakfast with his family, Luo Zhang happily rode towards the imperial city under the protection of Shibaqi and Wu Shaobin.
Compared to yesterday's lethargy, today was much better. When I arrived at Luo Zhang in the Imperial City, I felt that something was wrong with the atmosphere. Everyone looked at Luo Zhang with evasive eyes.
Many people even pointed at Luo Zhang and murmured, without the previous swarming of flattery and politeness. It seemed that after a night, these people were alienated from Luo Zhang and could not avoid Luo Zhang. But these are Civil servants are like civil servants, but military attachés are nothing like that.
Luo Zhang, who was confused, walked to the group of military attachés and asked about his confusion.
Cheng Yaojin laughed and said, "Are you really not aware or are you pretending not to know?"
"What's going on? How could I know!" Luo Zhang said innocently.
"Oh, I thought you were so smart. You've been pretending for a long time. You wiped out the Dou family. Such a big family is gone. Who did this? It’s not you yet, but it’s now being spread that you have a way to make people tell the truth, and even people who are loyal to the family, when they meet you, you have a way to make them tell all the secrets in the family. You say that people are afraid Not afraid of you? Will he avoid you like a snake or a scorpion?" Cheng Yaojin explained in detail.
After listening to Cheng Yaojin's words, Luo Zhang knew who had released the bad water. There were only a few people in the imperial study room yesterday, and no one else would talk nonsense. Only Changsun Wuji, who hated him deeply, could. He would do this kind of thing just to make people no longer believe in him and ruin his reputation.
Luo Zhang was naturally angry about this, but anger was of no use. How could he explain it? Tell them that he didn't have any tricks, he just gave Dou Huai'an some alcohol, and it was Dou Huai'an who revealed the matter because of his own incompetence. Will anyone believe this? No one would believe him, so he didn't even think about explaining.
