In the hall of Changsun's family, the seventh elder angrily accused everyone. These words stoked a hornet's nest. It was like knocking over a boatload of people with one sentence and offending everyone in the house. This time it was better to pay off.
"Seventh Elder, what do you mean by this? What do you mean we are eating and waiting to die? Is anyone sitting here eating and waiting to die?"
"So, are you the only one who only focuses on the family? We all don't do anything?"
"You are the only one who has made sacrifices for the family? Are we all free of charge?"
"You are the only one who is useful to the family, but we are of no use to you. You are enough for this family. What do you want us to do?"
"I might as well give the position of head of the family to you. Anyway, you, the seventh elder, can take care of the family on your own!"
"You!!! You!!!" The seventh elder was so angry that he was shaking all over, and his hair stood on end.
"That's enough! Let's vote. The minority obeys the majority. This matter will be handled this way. Whoever has any objections will bear the responsibility!" Changsun Wuji glanced at the seventh elder and did not favor him too much. He is the eldest grandson. The head of the family is responsible for the entire family. He cannot offend everyone in the family for the seventh elder.
Everyone heard the words of the family leader and looked at the seventh elder with a sneer.
The result is self-evident. The seventh elder had the most votes, and the matter was finalized. Although the seventh elder was very unwilling, he could not refute it. His family and his heirs still wanted to live in the family. If he did not agree, he would He was going to be kicked out of the family. The consequences of being kicked out of the family would be more tragic than if he took responsibility, so he might as well take the responsibility.
The person was sent to the Secret Service by the guards of his family. Needless to say what happened next, he became a prisoner and was finally beheaded in public, giving an explanation to each family and an explanation to the people.
Seeing the seventh elder being taken away, Changsun Wuji took a deep breath and continued: "Second elder, you have to search more closely for the third elder who went deep into the Qilian Mountains. Again, if you want to see the person alive, you will see the corpse if you die. We need to find evidence to prove that the death of the third elder is related to Luo Zhang, and we have to avenge this! Now that the seventh elder has been added to the list, everything depends on you!"
"Don't worry, Patriarch, I will live up to your trust, find the traces of the third elder, find the evidence, and prevent Luo Zhang from going unpunished! Avenge the fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth elders!" the second elder said solemnly.
"I can rest assured that you will do the work!" Changsun Wuji asked, changing the subject, and said again: "Fifth Elder, I leave it to you to build this place. Before that, everyone will move to the old house, and we will wait until the construction here is completed. Move back, and as for the worshipers in the dungeon... let them sleep underground, don't disturb them, and be kind to their families."
"Yes, Master!" Everyone stood up and agreed.
Luo Zhang only got the news about Changsun's family the next day. After getting the news, Luo Zhang secretly lamented how ruthless Changsun Wuji was. People in the family would just push it out without any emotion at all. I'm afraid this is the tragedy of the big family.
Under Gao Yang's service, Luo Zhang put on his court uniform, rode on a tall horse, and headed towards the imperial city. The person accompanying Luo Zhang today was not Wu Shaobin, but Chen Kuifeng. There is no news about Wu Shaobin entering the Qilian Mountains. If you say you are not worried, that's all It's a lie, but the only thing I can do now is wait.
Chen Kuifeng's body has recovered more than half after two days of recuperation, so there will be no problem in following Luo Zhang.
When Luo Zhang arrived in the imperial city, many people looked at him with admiration.
It is rumored that the eldest son of the Sun family was transformed by an earth dragon, causing the prison in his mansion to collapse and the prisoners to escape, causing turmoil in Chang'an City the night before. But everyone knows that the initiator of all this was Luo Zhang. After all, the spies at the door reported to the family Well, although I don’t know how Luo Zhang did it, this matter is definitely inseparable from him.
At present, the Changsun Mansion is in ruins, and the Changsun family has become the laughing stock of everyone. This is all Luo Zhang's masterpiece. They admire Luo Zhang because he was able to challenge Changsun Wuji and finally won. This is seen by many people It's all unbelievable. The Changsun family is not an ordinary family, but a top aristocratic family. This can make Luo Zhang disgraced. How could it be possible if they don't admire them.
Didn't you see that Changsun Wuji pushed out the seventh elder in the family to confess? This is a sign of admitting defeat.
Of course, many things here are difficult for outsiders to know, so there are more speculations. Changsun Wuji is too lazy to explain, and Luo Zhang will not look for trouble. Now he wants to keep a low profile. These days, he is too high-profile. This is not a good thing. A tree that is beautiful in the forest will be destroyed by the wind. This is no joke.
If you are too pushy, you will become the target of everyone's attack. After all, you are not in harmony with them, you are an alien, and he does not want to be such an alien and suffer resistance from everyone.
Luo Zhang had never had a good impression of civil servants, and he didn't want to get involved with them. After arriving here, he went straight to the military attache's team.
If Gao Yang hadn't liked him wearing the uniform of a civil servant, he would have gone to court in the uniform of a military attaché.
"Hey, who am I here? It turns out it's our great hero!" When Cheng Yaojin saw Luo Zhang, he smiled so happily that he opened his mouth to tease Luo Zhang.
"Sir Cheng, why don't I lead you to bury people like this? What kind of hero am I? Compared to you, I am nothing!" Luo Zhang shook his head helplessly.
"We are heroes on the battlefield, and you are a hero in the officialdom. You can make Changsun Wuji eat such a big turtle, but you are not a hero? You have done what we wanted to do but couldn't do. This is comparable to killing How many people are so happy!" Yuchi Jingde interjected.
"I said to everyone, can you please spare me? I don't want to be the target of public criticism. You have also seen that those people look at me differently. Who knows when they will stumble me. There are many of those people. They are the minions of Changsun Wuji, so I have to guard against him and keep my tail between my legs!" Luo Zhang cupped his hands and apologized to everyone.
"Okay, don't embarrass Luo Zhang. He is right, being too pushy is not a good thing!" Qin Qiong stood up to smooth things over for Luo Zhang. After all, his uncle is his uncle, so he naturally cares about his nephew.
Everyone was not embarrassing Luo Zhang, they were just joking with Luo Zhang. When Qin Qiong said this, everyone was too embarrassed to say anything else.
Several eyes had been staring at Luo Zhang since he arrived. Luo Zhang naturally discovered that these people were what he just said, Changsun Wuji's minions, headed by Chu Suiliang, and Changsun Wuji was their backer. , their backer was bullied like this, and they naturally couldn't stand it. Although they couldn't do anything at the moment, they could still send a threatening signal to Luo Zhang.
Luo Zhangli didn't pay attention to such boring things. If he wanted to deal with labor and management, just come and see who would be unlucky.
The gate of the imperial city finally opened, and everyone lined up to enter slowly. After His Majesty arrived, everyone sat down one after another.
For Luo Zhang, he just listened to the old monk reciting sutras in the early morning. In fact, he couldn't get involved in the things they said, let alone didn't want to get involved. He already had enough things to do, how could he care about so many things? Let's talk about him A director of the Dockyard Department may seem like a very important official to others, but in this hall, to be honest, he is nothing.
"Your Majesty, during the reign of your Majesty, the imperial censor Zhongcheng, Cao Mao, and the director of the Shipyard Department, Luo Zhang, secretly misappropriated the money from the Ministry of Industry for building ships for their own use, built luxurious government offices, behaved extravagantly, and had no idea of frugality. As a result, the ship cannot be built so far. I hope your majesty will investigate clearly and punish Luo Zhang for his crime!" A man in a tall hat, aged forty, and with an upright appearance started to announce.
Judging from the official uniform he was wearing, he was still a third-grade official. Luo Zhang looked a little ugly when he looked at this person.
Come, look, come on, labor and management know that these people will not make labor and management easy, and they actually sent Yushi Zhongcheng to impeach labor and management. You are really cruel.
Hearing this, everyone looked sideways at the person leaving work, frowning or raising their brows, but most of them had expressionless faces, showing that the matter was not their concern.
Only Chu Suiliang and the others looked gloating about his misfortune. It was obvious that they had pushed this person out.
Changsun Wuji was dealing with family matters these days and asked for leave and did not go to court. However, they could not pretend that nothing happened. Naturally, they had to do something to show their loyalty to Changsun Wuji. Impeaching Luo Zhang was just their first move. Just one step.
