Changsun Mansion, after some treatment by the imperial doctor, Changsun Wuji finally recovered and was sent back to Changsun Mansion.
No, before Changsun Wuji fully recovered, a servant came to report that Dai Zhou, the Minister of Household Affairs, was visiting.
What are you wearing? They're here to ask for money!
The more he thought about what happened in the morning, Changsun Wuji became so angry that he trembled all over. The maid who was waiting on the side was so frightened that she ran out to find someone. The master of the house was not allowed to do this.
If there were three advantages and two disadvantages, the sky of their eldest son's family would collapse.
After a while, there were more than a dozen people standing in Changsun Wuji's mansion. These people were all core members of the Changsun family. They heard that the family leader could live somewhere, so they came over as soon as they got the news. Because they were afraid that the master of the house might have an unexpected accident, they could also listen to the last words of the master of the house.
Fortunately, it was just a false alarm. Although the head of the house was so angry that it was not as serious as in the morning. Changsun Wuji also knew that he could not be too angry. If he vented his anger, wouldn't it be an advantage for others? , to make the enemy happy?
Looking at the people in the room, Changsun Wuji lamented in his heart, once upon a time, there were twice as many people here as now.
Now they can no longer be seen, they are all dead! died! And the culprit is Luo Zhang!
Luo Zhang, kid, we are not done yet!
"Master, please take care of yourself and don't get angry again. The imperial doctor said that although your life is not in danger, you still need to take care of yourself slowly. If you get angry again, your old illness may relapse and become more serious!" He bowed his head, The eldest elder of the Changsun family gave words of advice.
Being able to become the eldest elder of the Changsun family, his words still carry enough weight. After hearing the eldest elder's words, Changsun Wuji sat up under the service of the maid and nodded slightly towards her, indicating that he understood.
The rest of the people were relieved when they saw this. It was the greatest blessing for them that Changsun Wuji was fine.
"Dai Zhou is here?" Changsun Wuji asked as he sat up.
"Here we are, sit down in the hall now!" the great elder replied with a somewhat ugly look on his face.
"Huh! You clown, you want to laugh at me just because I'm sick. You really don't know how to live or die!" Changsun Wuji said with a gloomy face.
"Master of the family, Dai Zhou is here to collect taxes. We..." The great elder paused at this point and did not continue.
"Give it to him! There is no room for change in this matter. It's all the fault of that boy Luo Zhang for ruining my plan. If it hadn't been for him, all the courtiers would have stood with us to resist His Majesty's collection of taxes! It's really abominable. To the extreme!" Speaking of Luo Zhang, Changsun Wuji felt itchy with hatred.
When everyone in the hall heard this, their mouths twitched. Two million taels were just gone?
They don't hate Dai Zhou. As the head of the family said, Dai Zhou is just a clown.
What they hate is Luo Zhang. If it weren't for Luo Zhang, how could anything happen to the second elder, third elder, fourth elder, sixth elder, seventh elder, and eighth elder of the Changsun family?
Now there are only the First Elder and the Fifth Elder left in the family, these two are the only ones left with great achievements!
Now the head of the family is so angry that he is vomiting blood, and he has to pay all the taxes because of Luo Zhang. The eldest grandson's family has never been so aggrieved.
However, assassinations and explicit killings were used. This Luo Zhang was like an invincible Xiao Qiang. He escaped from danger time and time again but could not die. Not only could they not die, they would suffer disaster every time they were assassinated. This Luo Zhang had almost become a The Changsun family is in trouble. If possible, everyone here would like to eat Luo Zhang alive!
Dai Zhou didn't know how the Changsun family negotiated!
After sitting in the hall for half an hour, Dai Zhou was not in a hurry. Anyway, he would not leave until he received the taxes today. If your grandson Wuji dares to say that he will not pay the taxes, then fine, I won't tell you. I'll go talk to His Majesty. Don't blame me if he orders you to take over the fiefdom of your eldest grandson's family.
When Dai Zhou originally thought that Changsun Wuji really didn't want to give it, he saw Changsun Wuji being helped in.
After all, he is a big shot in the court, so he must be polite. Dai Zhou stood up and saluted and said, "Is Mr. Changsun feeling better? Why don't you go and have a rest? I'll be fine if I wait a little longer!"
Changsun Wuji glanced at Dai Zhou expressionlessly, ignored him, walked straight to his seat and sat down.
Dai Zhou was not angry either. When he saw Changsun Wuji sitting down, he also sat down.
Seeing Changsun Wuji's sick look, Dai Zhou felt relieved and kicked me out. Now retribution has come, I deserve it!
"Master Dai is really proactive. He came to my eldest grandson's house after the court. Are you afraid that my eldest grandson's family won't pay taxes? Or do you have no money to pay?" Changsun Wuji said coldly.
"Of course not. I just followed His Majesty's order and collected it immediately after going to court. You see, I have been waiting for more than an hour, so it doesn't count as collecting immediately. It is supposed to be late. I don't know if Your Majesty will blame you. To me!" Dai Huanpi replied with a smile.
There was a cold light in Changsun Wuji's eyes, and he took a deeper breath. It was obvious that he was a little angry when he wore a jacket, a gun and a stick.
Seeing Dai Zhou's triumphant look, he really wanted to beat him out with a stick, but he couldn't. If he did, trouble would follow.
The tax had to be paid. In this case, he didn't bother to talk to Dai Zhou anymore and just asked him to talk to the housekeeper.
Changsun Wuji left directly without saying hello to Dai Zhou, which almost made Dai Zhou laugh out loud.
Changsun Wuji, there will be a day when you will be angry with me, hahahaha!
The Wei family, the head of the Wei family was walking around in his study, looking a little restless. There were books scattered on the floor, as well as broken tea cups. It was obvious that the head of the Wei family had lost his temper before. .
"Master, master, the eldest grandson's family has paid taxes, and the money is already being loaded on the truck and is being transported to the Ministry of Household Affairs!"
Hearing this, the head of the Wei family suddenly felt a thump in his heart and hurriedly asked, "Are you sure?"
The person being questioned was naturally the Wei family housekeeper. He was out of breath because he was running in a hurry. However, when the head of the house asked, he still quickly replied: "I'm sure, Dai Zhou will come to the door in person and escort him. There will be no mistake!"
"Isn't even Zhang Sun Wuji able to do anything? That's it, that's all, go, prepare the money and send it to the household department." The head of the Wei family waved his hand dejectedly. Although he was unwilling to do so, he had no choice but to do it. He didn't dare to Your Majesty is not joking with you for not paying taxes at the risk of having your fiefdom taken back, and for taking it as you say without looking at the Dugu family's fiefdom!
Not only did the head of the Wei family pay the taxes honestly, but the other families who followed Changsun Wuji also paid the taxes honestly. This made Dai Zhou very happy. His plan was still successful, as long as After taking down the hardest bone, the rest of the people are nothing. No, he has not even gone to urge for payment, but has delivered the poles one by one. At this point, all the taxes that should be paid have been collected.
When Li Shimin heard about this, he still sighed deeply, giving birth to a child is like Luo Zhang!
In the East China Sea, there are rough waves. Three offshore ships are riding the wind and waves all the way south. Their goal is Yuyao, but the journey is still a long way away, and this is just their first stop.
On the leading offshore ship, Liu Renyuan stood on the bow facing the wind, looking very heroic!
At this time, his subordinates walked up to Liu Renyuan and reported: "Sir, following the route you gave southward, there seems to be no islands. The fresh water is already insufficient. Should we go to the shore to replenish it?"
Liu Renyuan frowned. Rather than saying that this route was drawn up by him, it would be better to say that it was drawn up by Luo Zhang. Where to dock for supplies along the way and where to explore were all marked on a chart by Luo Zhang. This is He is the only one who knows the secret mission Luo Zhang gave him, and nothing happened when he followed the sea map drawn by Luo Zhang before. But this time, for some unknown reason, he has not found the map drawn by Luo Zhang yet. Every island for them to dock!
"Continue to search, the island must be nearby!" Liu Renyuan gave the order.
"Yes, sir!" The subordinates did not dare to refute, but bowed and accepted the order and left!
But not long after, his subordinates hurriedly returned to report: "Sir, the island has been discovered, on the left front!"
After hearing the report, Liu Renyuan's eyes lit up. His map was indeed correct!
But the next moment, Liu Renyuan was stunned. Is this an island? Not mistaken?
