Where the Datang Evening News was originally placed, there was a copy of Shilin News. The Datang Evening News that I had been looking forward to all day was nowhere to be seen!
"Who is responsible for buying newspapers today? Where is Datang Evening News? What the hell are you buying!"
Yuchi Gong suppressed the anger in his heart, turned it over briefly, and threw it away.
I want to watch "The Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties"!
Do you want to see these messy things?
It seems that I am still too tolerant, and the servants at home have become more and more slack recently!
Seeing that the master of the house was angry, the waiter quickly came forward to explain with Xin Xing.
"It's a minor thing - please calm down, the master of the family. It's not a minor slack. It's because today's Datang Evening News is gone..."
there is none left?
Yuchi Jingde couldn't help but frown when he heard this.
"Datang Evening News was attacked by gangsters last night. The newspaper office and printing factory were burned down. The newspaper office and major newspaper sales outlets have issued announcements - saying that they will resume the distribution of newspapers as soon as possible..."
After hearing this, the expression on Yuchi Jingde's face softened slightly.
It’s not just because these bitches can’t do their jobs well!
I recently read "The Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" and became a bit addicted to it. In the past few days since I came back, I arranged all the recently published newspapers according to the issue number and read it in one go.
I just read the latest chapter yesterday.
The plot of the story has reached the point where he is about to make his shining debut. He was scratching his head like a cat, wanting to know how he was written about in "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties".
Even people like Cheng Yaojin, Niu Jinda, Shan Xiongxin, Shi Danai, Zhang Gongjin, etc. all wrote so brilliantly, not to mention me, Yuchi Jingde?
The expectations in my heart have already been filled.
I was just waiting to have a good look today, but the result is gone——
And listen to that, there may not be tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or even the day after tomorrow!
Can this be tolerated?
"Go, ask someone to go to Datang Evening News - bring me the content of the later issues of "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties", and say it was me!"
The boy nodded immediately and hurriedly ran out.
Seeing that the boy was about to go out, Yuchi Jingde suddenly added.
"Remember to speak politely and bring some money, lest others say that I, Yuchi Jingde, bullied a small businessman..."
The boy walked in a hurry and almost bumped into Yuchi Baolin who was about to come in.
Seeing that he almost bumped into his own son, he was so frightened that he accused him repeatedly. Yuchi Baolin nodded and dismissed him casually.
After walking to the study and greeting his father, he couldn't help but asked curiously.
"Father, I saw that boy walking away in a panic just now. Could something have happened?"
Yuchi Jingde nodded casually.
"It's nothing. I asked him to go to Datang Evening News and help me get a few issues of "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties". Although the story has many exaggerations and falsehoods, it is pretty well written, and it is a good way to amuse myself. Good stuff——by the way, why did you come to me?”
This son of my own has always been afraid of me, and rarely comes under his nose when nothing happens. Today, he took the initiative to come to see me, which is rare.
As soon as these words came out, Yuchi Baolin couldn't help but get excited.
"Father, didn't you fall in love with a set of glass lamps last time? This time, I bought one for you -"
After saying that, he clapped his hands, and a boy from outside brought in a black lacquer tray covered with red silk, as if offering a treasure. With Yuchi Baolin's gentle tug, twelve crystal clear and graceful colored glaze lamps appeared in front of Yuchi Jingde.
The sunlight from outside the window slants in and shines on the edge of the glass lamp and the slightly raised outer wall, exuding a charming luster.
Gorgeous.
Yuchi Jingde was happy at first, and then shuddered in his heart, staring at Yuchi Baolin with an unkind look.
"Where did you get this thing?"
Yuchi Baolin was stunned and replied subconsciously.
"Bought it from outside - ah -"
Before he finished speaking, Yuchi Jingde slapped him on the head.
"You bastard, I won't let you buy it back! If you don't take a pee and look in the mirror, will you be worth such a set of glass cups if you sell yourself?"
Yuchi Baolin:...
It's so hard for me.
After a sudden wolf rush, Yuchi Baolin, who was beaten with a bruised nose and face, finally managed to explain the matter clearly.
Seeing that his son didn't seem to be lying, Yuchi Jingde finally stopped, with a look of disbelief on his face.
"What, you said that the price of colored glaze outside has plummeted? Such a set of colored glaze lamps only sells for a dozen pieces?"
Yuchi Baolin almost shed tears of grievance.
"Otherwise, how could I afford this..."
Yuchi Jingde couldn't help but coughed awkwardly.
"It's rare for you to be filial. Okay, let's put this glass lamp here first. I did it for your own good as a father..."
Yuchi Baolin wanted to cry but had no tears.
So, you beat me up without saying a word...
Yuchi Jingde probably felt that what he said was a bit unreliable, so he coughed quickly.
"Just now, I saw that your kung fu seemed to have deteriorated a lot when you were trying to dodge a fight. Have you slacked off again this year when I was away? Let me tell you, in a few days, His Majesty will hold a Beiyuan Lift. The main purpose of the large-scale martial arts performance is to test the skills of the younger generation like you——"
"It is said that His Majesty attaches great importance to it. If you lose face in front of others, be careful I will break your legs - forget it, as a father, I am free today, so I will personally test your results this year..."
Yuchi Baolin:...
Aren't I being a bitch?
But, what else can be done?
Of course, I obediently accepted dad's violent test.
Make a mistake, get scolded, do it again, get beaten, the cycle starts over again.
Seeing Yuchi Baolin almost despair.
A familiar boy in green clothes hurried back.
Seeing the boy come back, Yuchi Jingde couldn't help but smile, and put away the long stick in his hand.
"Let's go here today. After you go back, think about it carefully. Don't lose the face of our Yuchi family."
Yuchi Baolin nodded repeatedly as if he had been granted amnesty.
"Have you brought anything back?"
Before Yuchi Baolin left, Yuchi Jingde couldn't help but ask.
When Yuchi Jingde asked, the boy shrank his neck with some guilt.
"Master Qi, the newspaper said that "The Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" was a manuscript provided by the Marquis of Chang'an. They don't have any follow-up manuscripts. Even if they wanted to, they couldn't give it to them. Please forgive me——"
When Yuchi Jingde heard this, he couldn't help but frown.
I felt a little depressed.
The Tang Dynasty Evening News kept stopping in the morning and evening. It stopped just when I, Yuchi Gong, was about to appear. Isn't this a problem for me?
Just when he thought about forgetting it, his eyes suddenly caught sight of Yuchi Baolin who was listening curiously to what was happening here, and his heart suddenly moved.
"Take my father's post, go to the Marquis of Chang'an, and borrow the subsequent chapters of "Heroes of the Sui and Tang Dynasties" from me, saying that I want to borrow one or two of them——"
Yuchi Baolin's scalp immediately went numb when he heard this.
That Prince An is not an easy talker. He still remembers clearly what happened last time.
Still going?
Are you going to be disgraced again?
"Ahem, this - father, forget it. Anyway, the Datang Evening News will be on sale in a few days. Why not wait a few more days?"
I saw my son was hesitant in speaking.
Yuchi Jingde's eyes suddenly became strange.
It is said that no one knows his son better than his father. I know the virtues of my son. When have I ever been so frightened?
"Are you hiding something from me? Is it related to the Marquis of Chang'an?"
Seeing his father asking questions, Yuchi Baolin didn't dare to hide anything. He hesitated and babbled for a long time, and finally explained clearly the unpleasant incident he had with Wang Zi'an because he wanted to buy the pair of drums, urns, golden hammers and dragon colts last time. .
Yuchi Jingde immediately became angry.
"Junior is rude!"
This bitch, Wang Zi'an, dares not to give me, Yuchi Jingde, face!
"Let's go, follow my father to find that bitch to settle the score——"
Yuchi Baolin:...
"Father, how about - forget it?"
"Forget it? Where do we put the face of our Yuchi family? You must know that if you go out, it also represents the face of our Yuchi family!"
Yuchi Jingde snorted coldly.
"Come on, come with me. I want to see who this Wang Zi'an is. He dares to refute the honor of my Yuchi family!"
…
When Li Shimin came out of Nanya, his face was as heavy as water.
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji also remained silent, each thinking secretly in their hearts about the possible disturbances caused by His Majesty's series of actions, and also thinking about the changes in His Majesty's way of handling affairs during this period -
Before this, my Majesty would never be so tough and rough.
They don't know whether this change is good or bad, so they can only look at their noses and hearts, and consider how to deal with today's events.
Not far from Nanya, Li Shimin suddenly stopped.
"Notice that all the prisoners today will be sent to Wannian County..."
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji couldn't help but look at each other, but they immediately understood what His Majesty meant. This is the time to make up your mind and investigate the Wang family to the end.
Although the Minister of Punishment is now Li Daozong, Li Daozong's main focus is still on Tuyuhun. Now the person who is really in charge of the overall situation of the Punishment Ministry is Cui Zhi, the Minister of Punishment, and the Cui family and the Wang family are closely related and have been married for generations.
If we add to this the fact that last time because of Wang Tong's case, Qiu Ye, the left assistant minister of the Criminal Department, and Zheng Qu, the doctor of the Criminal Department, most of the powers of the Criminal Department were in the hands of Qiwang, the fifth surname.
Although, Qiu Ye and Zheng Qu were unlucky, and Wang Gang, the young minister of Dali Temple, had also come to an end sadly, and was sent to Hezhou by His Majesty to build a forecourt and preside over the forecourt transactions with Tubo and Tuyuhun. The strength of the Five Surnames and Qiwang in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple cannot be underestimated.
Only Gao Ting, the magistrate of Wannian County, is Gao Shilian's nephew. In total, he is still a distant relative of His Majesty. Although he is somewhat related by marriage to the Wang family, the two recent incidents have basically turned him against the Wang family completely.
Apart from standing firmly on His Majesty's side, there is almost no way out.
After understanding Li Shimin's thoughts and determination, Changsun Wuji immediately turned around and arranged the matter without saying any more.
When Changsun Wuji came back, Li Shimin looked up at the sky, turned around and said something.
"Let's go to Zian's place to relax -"
Fang Xuanling and Changsun Wuji couldn't help but look at each other again, with complicated emotions.
Being the Prime Minister himself is not as good as a young man who refuses to take on actual duties.
Now, Your Majesty, look to Wang Zi'an when you are happy, look to Wang Zi'an when you are depressed, look to Wang Zi'an when you are in trouble, and look to Wang Zi'an when you have nothing to do.
Who is the prime minister of the Tang Dynasty?
Changsun Wuji now accepts his fate.
Shouldn't we compete with that Wang Zi'an for the head office?
…
The concierge knew both Li Yuan and Li Chengqian.
Knowing that one of these two people was an elder brother recognized by the Marquis, and the other was Shopkeeper Li, who was the son of the Marquis' father-in-law, he invited them in without stopping.
When he heard that Li Yuan and Li Chengqian were here together, Wang Zi'an couldn't help but have a strange look on his face.
What's going on?
Do we still need our character designs...
Although he complained in his heart, he still welcomed him.
But when I saw Li Yuan, I was immediately startled. He was so fragile and frail, looking like he was in his twilight years. Is he still the old man I knew who was funny, who shamelessly showed off his strength and strength, and who had many women at his disposal every night?
I didn't bother to ask, why did the two of them get together.
After a brief greeting, I took advantage of the opportunity to talk in the yard and carefully observed Li Yuan's complexion until I confirmed that this old boy was just addicted to women, his body was too severely deficient, and he suffered from wind and cold, which led to his illness. I got sick, and now it's nothing serious, so I feel relieved.
He joked with a smile.
"Brother, did you pick up a grandson on the way or something? How come you got together with Xiao Mingming-"
Li Yuan:......
"A chance encounter——"
Does my grandson still need to pick it up?
biological!
Li Chengqian:......
He didn't know how to answer the call.
He could only smile and nod his head.
"Encounter by chance, encounter by chance——"
Fortunately, Wang Zi'an seemed to just say it casually and had no interest in continuing to ask questions, so Li Chengqian breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Wang Zi'an was a little curious about where Li Chengqian had been recently, he did not ask. Instead, he turned around and joked about Li Yuan.
"Brother, what's going on with you? Are you starving after being locked up by your filial son? Why are you acting like this after not seeing each other for a while? If your eldest nephew dares to bully you, tell me. , I will go back with you and help you teach him a lesson..."
Li Chengqian:......
I was trembling and didn't dare to speak. I just couldn't handle this topic.
Li Yuan waved his hand angrily.
"That bitch, although he is rebellious, doesn't have the courage yet—"
Li Yuan gave instructions unceremoniously as he sat down.
"Stop teasing me here. Brother, I'm sick in bed and can't come to your place for food. Poor brother, I haven't been able to eat a decent meal for more than a month. Don't say anything. My stomach is like this today. Waiting for your help..."
When Wang Zi'an heard this, he couldn't help laughing.
He stood up quickly.
"Okay, you sit down for a while, and I'll go to the kitchen and prepare you two delicious dishes myself. I'll make sure you eat them until you can't stop..."
When Li Yuan heard this, his eyebrows suddenly lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
I recognized this little brother, and he was still reliable, so I didn't protect him behind his back in vain.
