Chang'an is indeed not small, but in the ears and mouths of countless gossip people, Chang'an is actually very small.

As soon as Li Shimin's handwriting left the palace, the streets were in chaos.

Li Shimin's order to the leader of the Hundred Riding Master was to not let go. If he resisted, he would die.

Because of special professions, the current leader of Baiqisi is a man named Dugu Feng. Before, Hongcheng, Li Junxian and others have already done other things, and I don’t know whether Dugu Feng is from the Dugu family.

Dugu Feng is fifty years old this year, and his white robe looks very alternative, because many people who are the big leaders of hundreds of riders are actually black or black, giving people the feeling of two words: gloomy.

But he was wearing a white robe and a rosy complexion, like a rich family member. He had a lot of flesh on his face, and the tender skin felt like he was smiling.

However, once you have a position, it is impossible to become a good person. People in this world want to be vicious, or you can remove the poison, but it is necessary to be vicious.

With the orders he said, they went out one by one, and almost all of the Hundred Horsemen, which had no more than two thousand people in Chang'an, were dispatched, because His Majesty's worries were their worries, and His Majesty's thoughts were theirs. If His Majesty was uncomfortable, they would pull those people's heads off, simple and violent.

Because of this action, many people began to panic. The things that Li Shimin feared were exactly what they rely on. Sometimes these things looked very solid, but very fragile and broke as soon as they touched them.

So, when night came, several families went out, because there were some things that could not be talked about without meeting. As for the White Tiger Gang, from today on, no one dared to say anything about the White Tiger Gang here, and it has become a rat for the festival.

The cicadas at night seemed to complain about the heat of the day, and they were still screaming in pain at this moment, and the other insects did not miss this opportunity that made them feel restless because they were really annoying.

Outside Chang'an City, there is a Taoist temple called Ji Taoist temple. I don't know what it means, it's just an ordinary Taoist temple with a very low incense and a remote place, so there are very few people coming here.

But that night seemed a bit lively.

The people of the Tang Dynasty generally did not go out at night because it was very dangerous to go out, not only wild animals, but also bandits and other rampant activities.

It’s just that some people are afraid of robbers, while others make robbers scare.

The Taoist temple door was closed early. There were only three people in the Taoist temple. One middle-aged Taoist priest likes to drink all day long. Two little Taoist priests usually practice some methods for the people in the surrounding villages, and eat something while eating nothing else.

However, from the hill behind the Taoist temple, many men in black came to the evening. After entering, they were taken to the basement.

Outside, the stars are filled with the sky, the shade of trees is deep, but inside the house is full of light, dazzling and soft.

Although the Taoist temple is not big, the basement below is very large enough to accommodate dozens of people.

But at this time, more than a dozen people appeared here, and you can tell at a glance that they were people like managers.

"Manager Cui, why are you so anxious to call me here?" asked a thin and shriveled man. He didn't seem to like heat, so he took off his hood as soon as he came in.

"What do you think?" Cui Lie looked at him dissatisfiedly and asked, "You guys did a good thing."

"Manager Cui, what you said is wrong, right? We did it, and you didn't do it?"

Another man in a brocade dress asked, although the weather was so hot, he was still dressed very well, and he could tell at a glance that he was a person who likes life.

"Hmph." A bald man seemed not used to the smell here, and snorted with his nose, but said nothing.

"Master Prayer, why are you angry? Didn't you participate in Dashan Temple this time?" Manager Cui couldn't stand such a person the most. He was obviously of the same virtue as himself, but he was so noble. Who do you think you are, just a bald donkey.

"Okay, okay, everyone comes here and have something to say, don't make a fuss."

However, the middle-aged Taoist priests from this Taoist temple are here, and are trying to smooth things over. At the same time, they invite everyone to sit down. Although this place is a basement, it is summer now, and the temperature is very high, so everyone will not be in a good mood.

Everyone disliked the other party, but they still sat obediently in front of the table in the middle with herbal tea on it, which had been ready.

After everyone drank it, they felt relieved.

"I didn't expect that Your Majesty was really angry this time?" Although Master Qifeng is a monk, he has been doing business in charge all these years, so he has no taste of being extraordinary, but has too much of the worldly taste.

"Yes, the White Tiger Gang is no longer here." The thin and shriveled man before sighed. If Li Shimin really turned against him, everyone's life would not be better. After all, the army is not the strong point of these people, because Li Shimin would not agree.

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone's eyes fell on the man in brocade clothes, "What's the news about your Dou family?"

"What news can be found? After the old man Wei Zheng sent Zhao Wuji's testimony, His Majesty was angry. Moreover, Dugu Feng was simply not a human being. He actually arrested a lot of my people. He was really too brave."

"We won't be involved, right?" Manager Cui couldn't help asking. Although these families have never dealt with each other, they are also considered to be the type of love and killing each other.

"I don't know." Dou Wu said with dissatisfaction, as if he was dissatisfied with what these people did. When doing things, he would refuse. What's the use of such a person?

"Okay, okay. Don't be angry. Now our enemy is not Your Majesty, nor Wei Zheng, but Ye Tan." The middle-aged Taoist priest said comfortingly, and then when he said Ye Tan's name, he didn't know what stimulated him. He couldn't help but curse, "This bastard is so brave, he dares to treat us like this."

"It's not just boldness, just tossing in Songzhou. His hands and feet have reached many other cities, especially big cities, not only in business, but also in escort agencies and land. This kid is simply a desperate man." Manager Cui couldn't help but growl, because they found that the so-called debts they had previously claimed would not have happened, but for them, how could they have made mistakes? The mistakes are all from others.

"The land belongs to our own family, so don't worry about this for the time being. The problem now is borrowing. I heard that they plan to receive 50% of the interest on the borrowing. Isn't this digging our ancestral grave?" He may not know where the master's ancestral grave is, but he has a wife and children.

"Fifty percent? What does this kid want to do? Are you really not afraid of death?" Dou Wu couldn't help asking, this matter was a big deal. The interest rate was 100% or 150%. As long as the business or other farming is not good, you will directly ask you to sell your children and your family to be destroyed. Otherwise, why would they have such a big family background? I really thought it was too slow to buy it by making money on their own.

"This kid is really damn." Another person also said, then looked at the people sitting here and said, "Are we just watching this little bastard messing around on our territory, really not caring about it. Now they are fine, but it will be hard to say in the future. Once the other party becomes bigger, how can we deal with it?"

No one will worry about having more money, but they will worry that they have no way to make more money. Even this money will still make them unlucky.

"We all know that he deserves to die, but how do you plan to kill him? He is surrounded by a large army now. Will he send someone to assassinate?" Manager Cui asked dissatisfiedly. This person is brainless. Such assassination is usually only used in troubled times, because the country is stable now, and once something happens, it is easy to be found out, because Ye Tan is not only a governor of Songzhou, but also a local military supervisor, and he holds a large area of ​​business in his hand. All this is an obstacle.

As soon as the sentence assassination came out, it can be seen that these people do this frequently, but they also need to treat people.

"What should I do? Are you all waiting for death together?" Master Qifeng couldn't help asking. The meat that was eaten in his mouth was his own, and some of them were still ready to eat in his mouth.

"Then you will defeat that Songzhou Bank." Dou Wu said fiercely.

"How to do it? Is it bǎng     jià their clerk or send someone to rob their bank treasury?" The people of the Zheng family like to do such things, because once such news comes out, no one will be willing to believe them in the future, because you can't even take the money, who will believe you?

Dou Wu glanced at him with contempt and didn't continue to say anything, because this is a typical dog meat that cannot be put on the table.

"How can we do this? Are we the kind of people?" Manager Cui looked at him disdainfully, then pondered for a moment, "Or what if we do, we should use a more civilized method?"

"You said." Master Feng knew that this man had a lot of ideas and asked directly.

"No matter how it changes, this Songzhou Bank is a money house. In order to get good interest, they must have used the money of the depositor to lend. Since that's the case, we will first store the money for him, and then after he lends it out, we will quickly raise it. If they don't give it, then we will announce the rumors, saying that the Songzhou Bank is cheating people. If it comes out, they will also be unlucky, because the Tang Dynasty has just been established and there are many places to use money. For example, some land around Chang'an is not the case. Even if he is for the prince or His Majesty, he will buy part of it. At that time, if the money cannot be taken out, he will use the land to mortgage it. How about it?"

His idea was indeed good, but Dou Wu felt that he needed to add another word, "Since that's the case, then Songzhou Bank would use their shops in Songzhou to mortgage it, so that we can enter the place in Songzhou."

"Okay, okay." Others couldn't help but agree. The thing that made these people most heartbroken in recent years may be that they can't interfere in Songzhou's business no matter what, because no matter whether it is through infiltration or other things, they can't do it, and in the end they can only give up.

"But what if the other party disagrees with this?" the middle-aged Taoist priest asked back, if you want the other party to mortgage, they have to do it. If you don't do it, wouldn't it be a waste of work?

"They will agree." Manager Cui said with some expectation, and at the same time he spoke very surely.

"How can I see it?" Dou Wu looked at him in confusion and asked.

"If you want to open up the situation in a money house in Chang'an, you don't have any skills or gimmicks at the forefront. Do you think they can drive it? The previous blackmail is just the beginning. This money house is not that easy." Manager Cui said coldly.

"Hey, then just do it like this. How much does it cost? Just calculate it then."

When Zheng Luo said this, he couldn't help but slam the table and said, "It's all a damn fool who actually wiped out the White Tiger Gang. How troublesome things will be in the future."

The few people were a little depressed because the White Tiger Gang was actually just one of their thugs. They were asked to do the unclean things that were not easy to do in normal times, but now they were just wiped out.

"Is Zhou Heihu okay?" Dou Wu continued to ask. This guy is ruthless and has enough brains to use, so he can still use it in the future.

"Don't worry, this guy knows how to cherish his life than we do." Zheng Luo seemed to have thought of something and said happily.

Then in the second half of the night, all of these people left here and the Taoist temple returned to peace.

When the sunlight rose again, the temperature outside was still very high, but Dugu Feng came back from Li Shimin with a gloomy face. The person who had just been scolded had no place to be happy because Li Shimin asked him to find someone, but he didn't find it. What does this mean? It means that the dignified emperor could not completely control his empire and did not kill him directly because he was still useful.

"Big leader." A man with a slightly tender face came over and reported in a low voice.

"What's the matter?" Dugu Feng couldn't help asking, then picked up a cup of herbal tea from the table and took a sip, which suppressed the depression and anger deep in his heart.

"It's a happy event." The man seemed a little afraid of him, and his words were trembling a little.

"Haha." Dugu Feng never thought that he would have happy events. He knew better than others about his life over the years. He lived a very frightened life, but he had no choice because he was the person involved in Li Shimin and was destined to be unable to make a fortune in this life.

"Someone came to report just now and said that he found a person under a big tree west of the palace gate. He seemed to be the leader of the White Tiger Gang."

"Bang..." Dugu Feng fell directly to the ground with a tea bowl in his hand, and then stood up and stared at him, "Really?"

"The young man didn't know that person either, so he didn't know it. However, someone left a letter on him saying it was him."
