If there are stages in life, being knighted is the watershed in Li Qinzai's life.
After being named the county son, Li Qinzai was no longer a playboy, he had risen to a higher level.
At the same time, his enemies and his friends gradually moved closer to the court.
There was nothing that could be done about it. Li Qinzai had been passive, but the diplomats and enemies took the initiative to come over.
For example, Li Yifu, such as Baiqisi, the level of these people could not be touched by Li Qinzai's status as a playboy in the past. Even if his grandfather was a British father, he was not qualified to talk to them.
The level has risen, but Li Qinzai's crisis has also come.
If you want to gain a foothold at this level, you must use some means to intimidate or establish authority. No one can easily take away the title bestowed by the emperor.
British government. .
Today is the 29th of the twelfth lunar month, and the day after tomorrow is New Year’s Day.
The whole family was in great joy, but Li Qinzai was not in the mood to be happy.
Sitting alone in the greenhouse, the big copper stove warmed his body, but Li Qinzai still frowned.
There are some things that are really difficult to solve in an officialdom.
There are official rules in officialdom. If you do things out of line, you will break the rules and you will be criticized by everyone.
But think about it from another angle, if Li Qinzai is still the bastard playboy he was before, will the rules of officialdom be useful to him?
The son of Weinan County can't mess around, but I am the grandson of the British father. I can beat whoever I want to beat, and whoever messes with me will blow his head off.
Li Qinzai slapped his thigh suddenly, this idea was right!
After a long time, Li Qinzai suddenly ordered Liu Asi to come over.
After Liu Asi stood in front of Li Qinzai and saluted, Li Qinzai suddenly said: "A dozen or so people under your command came out and I want to use it."
Liu Asi maintained the style of a soldier, not asking too many questions, but just executing.
"Fifth Young Master, just give me your orders. The villain and his subordinate Pao Ze are always at your disposal."
Li Qinzai hummed, then raised his nostrils, put on an arrogant and domineering expression, and said, "Did I look like this when I was a bastard?"
Liu Asi glanced at him quickly and whispered: "...The more fierce the eyes are, the stiffer the facial muscles will be."
Li Qinzai then made his eyes more fierce, his expression more fierce, and he let out a ferocious roar: "Ouch~~"
Liu Asi said with a dark face: "Fifth Young Master, please don't make trouble. You have never made a fuss before."
Li Qinzai was satisfied with his success, stood up, dusted himself off, and said, "Okay, with this face, Chang'an's famous bastard has returned to the world!"
"Fifth Young Master, where are we going?"
"Go to the house of a man named Liu Yuanzhen and cause trouble!"
…………
In the restaurant next to Zhuque Street, the chat between Li Sujie and Xue Nagaoqi came to an end.
"It's our duty to take care of brother Jingchu's worries! That censor named Ma, Xue has decided!" Xue Ne shouted, spitting.
Gao Qi said coldly: "Your father is just a man from Hedong County. You can't afford to cause trouble. Let me take care of the man named Ma. He can't afford to offend the Duke of Shen, so I'll beat him."
Xue Na stayed for a moment, and then said, not to be outdone, "Xue set fire to his house and burned it down!"
Gao Qi looked at him with disdain: "Set the capital on fire, and you won't get a beating from your father. If you have the guts to set fire, I respect you as a man."
Xue Na was speechless for a moment, with a heroic expression on his face.
Then he turned to glare at Li Sujie and said, "What about you? What are you doing?"
Li Sujie had a harmless smile on his face and said: "My disciple is not talented, so I would like to send people to block the streets and stop Wu Hou and the soldiers patrolling the city."
Then Li Sujie looked innocent and said, "After all, when the prince passes by his door, it is reasonable for the ceremony to be more complicated."
Xue Ne and Gao Qi's cheeks twitched a few times.
I'm afraid this guy will be just like Brother Jingchu when he grows up, he will be a scammer.
The three of them looked at each other, and Li Sujie suddenly said: "It's important to have a reputation for making trouble. Why should we come to make trouble?"
Gao Qi sneered and said: "This is not simple. Just say that Ma Zhong's son played with us and got into debt. We came to collect the debt. What's wrong with that?"
Li Sujie asked curiously: "Is his son really in debt?"
Gao Qi said coldly: "Who can tell clearly what happens at the gambling table outside the house? If I say I owe it, he owes it. I can even pull out a hundred powerful people to testify for me in an instant."
Li Sujie laughed: "This is easy to handle. Yes, it is only right that a son pays his debt to his father."
Xue Ne waved his hand: "Just do it, gather the people and let you go!"
A sudden change took shape in a few words of a few dandy boys.
Xingrenfang Street, the residence of Ma Zhong, the supervisory censor.
Although the supervisory censors have great power and bad mouths, they belong to the clear stream of the court. They usually regard themselves as honest and just, and the place they live in is certainly not too luxurious.
Ma Zhong's mansion is very inconspicuous on this street. On both sides of the simple gate, two stone lions that look like Jingba Chuanchuan lie pitifully on both sides. The vermilion paint on the door has faded and mottled, and it looks very dilapidated. .
When the people of Chang'an were immersed in the joy of the New Year, they were at the end of the main street of Xingrenfang. A group of people dressed in military uniforms, led by several dandy boys, came in an aggressive manner.
Four words are engraved on everyone's face, "Definitely not a kind person."
Seeing this, the people on the street gave way. The group of people walked to Ma Zhong's mansion. The leader, Gao Qi, looked at the door lintel coldly and shouted: "This is the mansion of Supervisory Censor Ma Zhong. His son is cheating money and owes us three." Bai Guan, I can’t survive the new year, come here, smash it for me!”
After receiving the order, the troops immediately swarmed forward.
The group of people who came seemed to be well prepared for today. They even brought axes to break down the door. They stepped forward and smashed the door together.
Ma Zhong, who was Xiu Mu preparing to celebrate the New Year at home, heard the noise and ran out in a hurry. He saw that the door had been hacked to pieces and a group of people rushed into his yard. Ma Zhong couldn't help being shocked and angry.
"Why bother bandits? The emperor dares to commit murder under his feet..."
Before he finished speaking, Gao Qi stepped forward and slapped him hard.
"Under the emperor's feet, debts must be repaid. This is a matter of course. Who dares to deny it?"
…………
At the same time, Li Qinzai also led Liu Asi and a dozen other tribesmen out of the house and went straight to the residence of Liu Yuanzhen, the chief secretary of the young mansion.
Liu Yuanzhen's official rank is not high, but his background is not small.
He is the son-in-law of Li Yifu, the Minister of Civil Affairs. Although his salary is not high, he can live in Chongrenfang, which is very close to Taiji Palace.
The mansion is magnificent, and regardless of its location or area, it is almost the same as that of a first-class official in the imperial court. It can be seen how much this guy has done while sitting in the position of the master of the young mansion.
Li Qinzai led Liu Asi and others to the door of Liu Yuanzhen's mansion, raised his head and looked at the magnificent lintel of Liu's mansion, and sneered: "It's more grand than my British Duke's mansion, a mere sixth-rank master bookkeeper, do you want to change the world?" Someone, smash it for me!"
Liu Asi and Bu Qu immediately rushed forward and smashed their axes against the bright red lacquered door.
There was a loud bang, and a big hole was quickly smashed into the red door of Liu Mansion.
A middle-aged couple hurriedly ran out of the house. The man among them was still wearing a green official robe. Seeing that the door was smashed into a mess, he couldn't help but become furious.
"Who dares to commit murder!"
Li Qinzai took a step forward, crossed his chest and said coldly: "I am Li Qinzai, the grandson of the British Duke."
Staring at the green-robed official in front of him, Li Qinzai snorted and said, "Are you Liu Yuanzhen?"
The green-robed official nodded subconsciously, and then said angrily: "So what? Li Qinzai, you are a noble son, I don't know you, why did you break my door? I can't explain the reason, I will go to Dali Temple to sue you!" "
Li Qinzai's eyes grew colder: "Yes, you and I have never met each other, so I want to ask you, you and I have no grudges. The emperor has conferred the title of county prince on me. Why did you instruct your lackeys to remonstrate with the emperor?"
"Destroying someone's future is like killing one's parents. The hatred is irreconcilable! Today I'm here to ask for an explanation. If I can't give you an explanation, I'm afraid you, Liu Yuanzhen, won't be able to survive this New Year!"
A look of panic suddenly flashed in Liu Yuanzhen's eyes.
The censor Ma Zhong advised the emperor, and it was him who instigated it, but it can also be said that he was not instigated.
In the final analysis, the real man behind the scenes was his father-in-law, and Liu Yuanzhen was just following orders.
But Liu Yuanzhen must not admit it at this moment. Once he admits it and involves his father-in-law, then this matter will not be a matter of whether Li Qinzai can be knighted or not.
It was a major matter of public quarrel between his father-in-law Li Yifu and the British Duke Li Ji.
"Ma Zhonggong is loyal to the country and has no selfish thoughts. As a supervisory censor, he bluntly stated that it is the duty of a minister to advise and advise. What is wrong with him?" Liu Yuanzhen said angrily.
Li Qinzai hummed and said, "Yes, there is nothing wrong with him being loyal to the country. But there is nothing wrong with him ruining my future and ruining my wealth. I smashed your door and settled a score with you, right?"
"Li Qinzai, how dare you!"
Li Qinzai sneered: "Liu Yuanzhen, I'm afraid you still don't know who I am, Li Qinzai. In the past, even if others didn't offend me, I would kill them. Today you dare to provoke me. If I let you go, Chang'an will be in trouble in the future." Is there any place for me to stand in the city?"
"Come here, rush in and smash the Liu family! Anyone who dares to stop him will have his head blown off!"
