After hearing Li Xiaogong's request from the eldest son's family, the imperial palace and imperial study couldn't help but get angry. The plan was all on him. Li Shimin was naturally furious and asked Li Xiaogong to tell the eldest son's family that he wanted to Find Sun Simiao, inquire about Sun Simiao's whereabouts, and let them find Luo Zhang by themselves. He will not help with this matter.
Although Li Shimin didn't want anything to happen to his eldest son, Wuji, but he wanted to manipulate him into doing this or that. What did his eldest son think of himself? It's really arrogant beyond measure.
Therefore, Li Shimin did not obey the Sun family's request at all. Anyway, he could still wake up if he was left alone, so why worry!
At worst, the eldest son's family would be insulted. As long as eldest son Wuji was fine, what did other people care about him?
When Li Xiaogong heard His Majesty's words, he felt so happy. Now the Changsun family was afraid that they would shoot themselves in the foot and take advantage of someone who was actually taking advantage of His Majesty. Do you really think that Your Majesty can show mercy? Now it’s up to you what to do.
After leaving the palace, Li Xiaogong didn't delay much. His Majesty's words still had to be conveyed. In one day, Li Xiaogong visited the eldest grandson's house for the second time.
Seeing Li Xiaogong's return, the First Elder felt very good. He thought that His Majesty must have agreed to this matter, and Li Xiaogong was here to convey the order.
However, after welcoming Li Xiaogong into the hall, Li Xiaogong's words shocked the great elder.
"Great Elder, it's not that I won't help you with this matter. I have told His Majesty what I should have told him, but His Majesty has not agreed to help you ask Luo Zhang. Regarding the whereabouts of Sun Simiao, Your Majesty has said that he wants to find Sun Simiao. Let's ask him You can ask yourself. If you are too embarrassed to ask, then let Changsun Wuji lie down. Anyway, Changsun Wuji will wake up in a year and a half, so it’s not a big deal. Bloodletting is dangerous after all, so be safe! These are His Majesty’s exact words , as for how to do it, it's up to you! I've tried my best!" Li Xiaogong spread his hands, looking helpless.
The Great Elder did not expect that His Majesty would do this. This was beyond his expectation.
How could the Great Elder have imagined that in His Majesty's eyes, whether the Changsun family is destroyed or not is nothing. What he wants is just that Changsun Wuji does not die. In this way, he will be worthy of the deceased Empress Changsun, and Changsun Wuji is him. caring.
In other words, if the Changsun family is really destroyed, Li Shimin may not be happy enough. After all, Li Shimin has been trying to weaken these big families for more than a day or two, and the Changsun family is the representative of the family. If he is destroyed, it represents this side. The disintegration of power is much better than doing it himself. He will not fall into the blame of others and is scheming. Li Shimin is no worse than these old foxes.
"Did your Majesty really say that?" the great elder asked unwillingly.
"Your Majesty indeed said that. Your Majesty just wants Master Changsun to stop using the knife and just lie down and recuperate." Li Xiaogong said with some gloating.
"Lying down to recuperate? Lying down to recuperate? Are you planning to destroy my eldest grandson's family?" the great elder murmured to himself.
"First Elder, be careful. When will your Majesty want to destroy the eldest grandson's family? Your Majesty just doesn't want to see the eldest grandson in danger. Don't misinterpret your majesty's meaning. If your majesty knows about this, you won't be able to live with it!" Li Xiaogong snorted lightly.
"I made a mistake. I hope Prince Hejian won't be offended! It's just..." The elder said this and couldn't go on. According to His Majesty's words, the eldest son's family is really in danger.
"Just what? It's not just. Your Majesty has said everything you need to say. If you want Changsun Wuji to wake up as soon as possible, you should come to Luo Zhang in person to ask for help. I believe Luo Zhang is not an unreasonable person. As long as you are sincere, Luo Zhang will I will help you regardless of past grudges. If you can't lose face, it's no wonder His Majesty!" Li Xiaogong said with some reproach.
After hearing Li Xiaogong's words, the eldest elder wanted to go up and fight with him. If you really can't stand and talk without pain, what do you mean by losing face? Is this something shameless?
If he really came to ask for Luo Zhang, and if word spread about it, would the Changsun family still have face? I'm afraid it will become Quan Changan's laughing stock, and according to what he thought, Luo Zhang would definitely not agree, and he would only be humiliating himself.
Just as he was about to say something, the housekeeper ran in in a panic outside the living room, shouting: "Elder, something happened, something happened!"
Seeing the housekeeper like this, the elder's face turned red. He glared at the housekeeper fiercely and said, "How are you so flustered? Are you worthy of being the housekeeper of my eldest grandson's family?"
While speaking, the eldest elder glanced at Li Xiaogong. Seeing his half-smiling look, the eldest elder became so angry that he wished he could slap the butler.
"The great elder taught you that the young ones don't understand the rules!" The butler then remembered that the great elder was not the only one in the hall, and hurriedly knelt down and admitted his mistake.
"Tell me, what happened?" the great elder asked.
The housekeeper glanced at Li Xiaogong and hesitated, wondering whether he should say it here.
"But it doesn't matter, the sky hasn't fallen yet!" The great elder naturally saw the steward's scruples, but he didn't care. It's already like this, there's nothing else that can't be known.
"Just now, people were making trouble in several properties of our eldest son's family. Our people tried to drive them away, but they were beaten up and the store was smashed. This is obviously looking for trouble. Elder, what should we do now? What to do?" the steward asked.
"Someone came to my eldest grandson's property to cause trouble? Do you know who it is?" the great elder's expression changed slightly.
"It's...it was done by several big families who have a bad relationship with my eldest grandson's family. Although they didn't identify themselves, the leaders all know each other!" the housekeeper said hurriedly.
"Okay, that's really good. Before this happened, the bullies came to the door. You really don't take my eldest grandson's family seriously!" the elder said angrily.
Li Xiaogong had been sitting on the edge watching and listening. When he heard the news, Li Xiaogong was so happy that he almost clapped and celebrated. He didn't expect that this day would also happen to the eldest grandson's family. It's true that evil is rewarded.
There was no point in staying here anymore at this time. He had to rush to Luo Zhang to have a chat, tell Luo Zhang about the situation here, and also let Luo Zhang make preparations and think about what to do, in case the eldest son of the family really What should I do if someone comes to my door?
"Great Elder, since there is something going on in the Changsun Mansion, I won't stay any longer. His Majesty is still waiting there, so I'll take the first step!" Li Xiaogong stood up and cupped his hands towards the Great Elder.
"I won't stop Prince Hejian if he has something to do. I would like to thank Prince Hejian for his help this time. When the master of the house wakes up, he will come to thank you!" the elder replied politely.
After seeing off Li Xiaogong, the elder returned to the hall, grabbed the tea cup on the table and smashed it to the ground.
"I'm so angry, I'm so angry. Your Majesty wants to put my eldest grandson's family to death! These big families think that my eldest grandson's family will be destroyed by them? What a wishful thinking!" the great elder vented in the hall.
The housekeeper stood aside quietly, not daring to speak, waiting for the great elder's instructions.
"Which big families are they? We can't be merciful this time. We must let these families take a look, otherwise they will really think that my eldest grandson's family is a sick cat!" asked the elder.
"There's the Yuwen family, the Dugu family, the Xiao family..." the housekeeper said one by one.
Hearing the families reported by the steward, the elder remained silent. Other families were easier to say, but the Yuwen family, the Dugu family, and the Xiao family were top families that were not weaker than their eldest grandson's family. Unexpectedly, these three families It would be a bit tricky to add insult to injury at this time.
After all, the strength of these three families is not weaker than that of the Changsun family, and it is not easy to give them a good look.
The three families could unite and even destroy their eldest grandson's family. This time, I'm afraid it's just to test the eldest grandson's family's bottom line. If the eldest grandson's family doesn't fight back, I'm afraid that the storm that will follow will be bigger and more violent.
When the elder was worried about how to solve the problem of the shop being destroyed by several big families, Li Xiaogong came to Luo Mansion in a sedan chair.
Luo Zhang seemed to have expected Li Xiaogong's visit. This was mainly due to the intelligence from Li Yifu, which allowed Luo Zhang to analyze many possibilities at the first time.
Li Xiaogong's visit is one of the possibilities. It seems that His Majesty sent Li Xiaogong here, but I don't know what news Li Xiaogong will bring to His Majesty.
He respectfully invited Li Xiaogong into the reception room, and the two sat opposite each other. Luo Zhang personally poured a cup of Maotai for Li Xiaogong.
This old guy, if you give him Dahongpao, it's just a waste. It's better to go to Maotai directly, which will make Li Xiaogong more happy.
