There was a suffocating and depressing atmosphere in the study. Faced with such unceremonious and sharp questioning, Du He and Du Chuke were both in a state of embarrassment.
Du He didn't fully know the inside story. Before he was pulled by Du Chuke as a shield, he asked Du Ruhui... The latter told his son that he must preserve the reputation of the Jingzhao Du family.
The meaning of this sentence is obvious, the Jingzhao Du family has been disgraced... and it is still aimed at Li Shan, which makes Du He immediately think of the Yuhuchun wine shop that is still closed to this day.
Could it be that Du Chuke did this?
Although Du He is still just a young man, he has been in contact with Li Shan for nearly a year, and he roughly knows his importance. He also knows that the relationship between Li Shan and several leading figures of the Li family in Longxi is extraordinary... This kind of thing, uncle Du Chuke was powerless, either his father or his great-uncle Du Yan.
His father, Du Ruhui, valued the family's reputation the most, while his third uncle, Du Chuke, had no desire to become an official. He and his uncle, Du Yan, had known each other since their early years in Luoyang.
Therefore, it must be his great-uncle Du Yan.
But Li Shan's next words made Du He a little confused.
"In the fourth year of Wude, I had a misunderstanding with Duke Keming, but Duke Keming was magnanimous and I admired him very much. I just laughed it off after the minor dispute. Erlang should know about this."
Du He nodded in agreement. Of course he knew that this was referring to the dismantling of Dongshan Temple.
Li Shan stared at Du Chuke, "Has a certain Li Huairen ever offended the Jingzhao Du family since then?"
Du Chuke was speechless, of course not... Although there was a story about Ling Jing snatching Bing Cao to join the army, he couldn't talk about it openly.
"In the Shandong war, a certain person has done great service to the country, but is there anything he can't do to the court or to the King of Qin?"
Of course not, Du He swallowed, "Brother Huairen, I really misunderstood..."
"Misunderstanding?!" Li Shan stood up suddenly, "We have known each other for many years, Erlang should know about a certain Li Huairen!"
"A certain person came from a rough background, but determined to work hard and make contributions to the country." Li Shan said sternly: "Duke Du took away my property and hindered my official career. This is a great enemy!"
Du He was stunned... Could it be that I guessed wrong and it wasn't because of Yu Huchun?
Turning around quickly... Du He saw that Du Chuke's face was extremely ugly, but he remained silent and did not refute.
Du He didn't know the inside story, but Du Chuke knew... These days, Du Ruhui and Du Yan were arguing every day. The former analyzed the matter bit by bit and stabbed the imperial examination matter. Du Yan finally had no choice but to admit it.
Feng Lun also served as Sima of Tiance Mansion, but his status in Li Shimin's mind was actually lower than that of Du Ruhui.
Li Shan was angry... He was just lying, but he didn't expect it to be true!
No wonder it couldn't be on the list even with the level of "Spring River Flower Moonlight Night". Feng Lun, the Minister of Civil Affairs, was a veteran of the previous dynasty, and most likely he was entrusted by Du Yan!
If it weren't for Jiang Guogong Chen Shuda, he would really have fallen into the hands of Du Yan this time!
Du Chuke smiled bitterly and said: "Huairen, uncle just misunderstood... It's really a misunderstanding."
"On the day when the prince washed his horse and returned to the capital, Wei Zheng paid a visit first before entering the city. Later Huairen paid several visits to Wei Zheng and Wei Ting, the prince of the East Palace, Zuo Wei. His uncle only mentioned it when chatting with the minister of officialdom, the official... Sima of Cefu..."
"Hahaha!" Li Shan interrupted with a laugh, "Confusing right and wrong, turning white into black. Is this the method of Jingzhao Du Family?!"
"I visited Wei Xuancheng and the Duke of Fuyang County for the purpose of closing the Yuhuchun family. I heard that Duke Du had a close relationship with Jingzhao Weishi. How could he not know the inside story?"
Du Chuke closed his mouth this time, and Li Shan glanced at it. He was not sure whether the other party knew about Wei Qingsi... He specifically mentioned Jingzhao Webster, which could refer to Wei Ting or Wei Qingsi, the prince's family commander. .
It was obviously Du Yan who invited the prince's family minister Wei Qingsi, and the Yuhuchun wine shop was closed down. Li Shan had to go to Wei Ting and Wei Zheng to find out the news. But in the end, it became proof of surrendering to the East Palace?
Li Shan wanted to laugh but was also angry. Ling Jing had inquired with Li Shimin privately, and the reply he received was somewhat ambiguous, but what was certain was that Li Shimin could not suspect that he had thrown himself into the East Palace... Du Yan must have not asked Du Ruhui beforehand, so Du Chuke is talking nonsense.
The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. Li Shan simply broke down and said bluntly: "Now the Crown Prince and the King of Qin are fighting in Chang'an City. A certain person helped the Tang army win a great victory in Shandong, but he wanted to take the imperial examination and become an official. Du Gong falsely accused a certain person of throwing himself into the East Palace. If something goes wrong in the future, Xie, if Li Huairen dies, he will die, what can my mother do?!"
All in all, Du's family in Jingzhao was unreasonable in these two things, and Li Shan suffered an unreasonable disaster...at least on the surface, that was the case, and from the perspective of Du Ruhui, Du He, and Du Chuke.
Therefore, the latter two came to Zhujiagou today to reconcile with Li Shan... To put it bluntly, it was compensation.
"Two thousand guan?" Li Shan couldn't help but sneered a few times.
Du He and Du Chuke were also a little bit embarrassed. It had been less than half a month since Yu Huchun had been locked down, and the income from selling wine alone... was more than 2,000 yuan.
"Brother Huai Ren, if you can make an offer and promise, I will never refuse."
Li Shan glanced at Du He, feeling hesitant.
Before, when he was drunk, he stabbed Du Ruhui directly in front of him...but now, Du Ruhui stabbed him directly in front of him.
It just passed like this... Li Shan naturally couldn't bear this tone. If he just endured it, he would bully everyone in the future.
Moreover, Li Shan has a good name, but he has never been a good person.
But is it really appropriate to ask for compensation...?
Compensation... is nothing more than in terms of power, position and wealth. Li Shan has no plans to invest in the Prince of Qin's Palace in the short term. Although Du Ruhui is famous for a while, his influence is mainly within the Palace of Qin.
It is possible to influence Feng Lun, the Minister of Civil Affairs, through Du Ruhui. After all, the latter also works part-time as Sima in Tiance Mansion. But today Yu Wenshiji just mentioned that Feng Lun is likely to resign... Yu Wenshiji is not the kind of person who speaks easily. people.
As for wealth, Li Shan is not short of money. For a time traveler, money is never the most important thing.
Although Li Shan tried to establish a character who was greedy for money, it was not appropriate to ask for money in this way.
Li Shan thought about it in his mind, there is another way to compensate... become famous.
But after experiencing the Shandong War, he really didn't need to become famous.
After struggling for a while, Li Shancai made up his mind, raised his chin towards the piece of paper on the table, and said, "Put it away."
Du Chuke was a little surprised, that was the secret recipe for brewing Yuhuchun that he had just taken out.
"The Du family in Jingzhao is a famous family in the world. I don't want to be an enemy, and I also respect Duke Keming. After that, Yuhuchun was given to Du family."
"this……"
"Brother Huairen!"
"You just need to agree to one thing."
Du Chuke did not speak, but looked at Du He... Only Du He, the son of Du Ruhui, was qualified to give an answer to this kind of matter.
Du He thought for a while, "Brother Huairen, please tell me, but I still need to ask my father."
"It's okay." Li Shan waved his sleeves and said, "Two days before the imperial examination, the Yuhuchun Wine Shop was closed by the Chang'an County Government. Erlang was also present. I should know who handed over the name card."
Du He immediately replied: "It's Wang Renyou of Qi County, Taiyuan."
Li Shan nodded, "I wonder if the children of the Du family in Jingzhao would dare."
Du He rolled his eyes and stood up with a slap on the table, "I have long disliked that guy. Don't worry, Brother Huairen, I will let him..."
"Erlang, there is no need to take five steps with blood." Li Shan kindly advised: "It's enough if you can't get out of bed for three to five months."
Hey, Li Shan is very sorry. In fact, Wang Renyou only played a leading role in this incident, and it really has nothing to do with him... But who made you start it? Who made me not want to get too tense with Du Ruhui.
I'm so sorry, I hope it won't be too miserable for you.
