"Lord Changsun, you don't know what big things are happening until you go out. So Qin Wenyuan will be awarded the third rank of Pingliao envoy today. Think about how young he is and he has achieved such achievements. If he continues to develop like this, how can we report it?
It’s a big hatred, I’m afraid I’ll have to rely on him in the future.”
"What! Where did you get this news? Could it be that the emperor made the appointment at the court meeting today."
Changsun Wuji was shocked when he heard what Xiao Yu said, grabbed his robe and said loudly.
"Alas! The emperor has issued an edict, and I am afraid it will be difficult to change. Now you and I should try to control the development of that boy. I have some connections with Mohe in Khitan. I wonder if Lord Changsun can mobilize the power of the Changsun family in western Liaoning.
How about you and I working together?”
"Wait a minute, wait until I think about it carefully."
After the two had a brief conversation, Changsun Wuji fell into deep thought and shouted in a short time.
"Someone is coming!"
"What are your orders, Master?"
"Go! Invite Zhang Gongjin, Wei Ting, and Wang Yuting into the mansion."
After the servants left, Changsun Wuji spoke to Xiao Yu again.
"Master Xiao, doesn't he believe in Buddhism? He must have a deep connection with Buddhism. Why not contact Master Shande and instigate his Buddhist monks to go to western Liaoning to kill Xu Tian."
"Since the fire broke out in Jinsheng Temple, Master Shande was asked by Master Shanxin to go back to Wuzhen Temple and was not allowed to take a step out of the mountain gate. I am afraid it will be difficult to contact the old monk at this time. It is better to wait for Zhang Gongjin to arrive and discuss how to deal with it.
Meet Qin Wenyuan!"
Xiao Yu said.
The two of them drank tea alone with gloomy expressions and said nothing. In fact, they were thinking about how to get the other party to have more ideas about Qin Wenyuan so that they could have some excuse when things were exposed in the future.
In half an hour, Zhang Gongjin and others arrived at the "Zhao Guogong" mansion one after another. After they met and sat down, Changsun Wuji asked the people to retreat and spoke.
"Today Qin Wenyuan has been promoted and rewarded by the imperial court. If western Liaoning is completely controlled by this son, I am afraid that the power of the Qin family will no longer be comparable to that of other aristocratic families like mine. I wonder what you will think about this matter?"
After hearing this, Zhang Gongjin, Wei Ting and Wang Yuting knew the purpose of Changsun Wuji calling them here.
Wei Ting said first.
"What do Lord Changsun think about this matter?"
"Lord Xiao Yu must have some rules in mind regarding this matter! You might as well come up with a summary for everyone."
After hearing what Wei Ting said, Changsun Wuji turned to look at Xiao Yu and said.
Xiao Yu secretly scolded Changsun, the old fox, it was Wei Ting who wanted you to express your opinion, but this old ghost brought the topic to me, what a fucking idiot.
These people have their own evil intentions in their hearts. If Yuwen Shiji discovers this, he will definitely feel lucky to be out of this circle as soon as possible. It seems that such people who take advantage of advantages and shirk responsibilities when they see them have achieved great things.
"I actually don't have any ideas in my heart. I came here just to ask for some strategies from Mr. Changsun. How about we all share our thoughts. The purpose is how to effectively kill Xu Tian. The worst is to let that person die."
The boy will have more trouble in Liaoxi."
"Now the head of the Wang family, Wang Tingzhang, doesn't seem to have that much hatred for Xu Tian. If it hadn't been for the eldest princess Tong'an, I would have forgotten the killings and injuries of the Wang family. The only way to do this is to ask the old head of the family Wang Yu and the eldest princess to
If you come forward to give orders to the Wang family, I can try to say that although my Wang family is not very powerful in western Liaoning, it can still play some role."
Wang Yuting took Xiao Yu's words and said.
Changsun Wuji frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with what this guy said, and said angrily with a gloomy face.
"I and Mr. Xiao ask you to come over and discuss the matter of revenge against Qin Wenyuan. If you and others shirk the matter for various reasons, then let it go. I and Mr. Xiao will just bear this bad breath."
Seeing that Changsun Wuji was a little impatient, Wei Ting said quickly.
"Lord Changsun, there is no need to provoke us with these words. Isn't this what everyone is still thinking about? My Wei family has some influence in Youzhou. I am thinking that Qin Wenyuan wants to develop western Liaoning, and trade and people's livelihood must be a priority.
, and the caravans from Chang'an and Qizhou are going to western Liaoning, and Youzhou is the only way to go. I might as well do some articles on this matter and send people to Youzhou to persuade Wei Xiaojie to fight at several checkpoints in Youzhou.
Heavy taxes were imposed on caravans passing through western Liaoning, which greatly reduced the number of caravans going to western Liaoning and inhibited the economic development of western Liaoning. Considering the character of Qin Wenyuan, how could he endure such bad breath? He would definitely go to Youzhou to seek advice from Wei Xiaojie.
They are both good and bad, so when two tigers fight, one of them will be injured. At that time, if we wait for the forces in Youzhou to help Wei Xiaojie, I don't believe that Qin Wenyuan can still have smooth sailing in western Liaoning."
When they heard Wei Ting's strategy of "the snipe and the clam fight, the fisherman will profit", Changsun Wuji and Xiao Yu both had their eyes lit up, and they had to admire Wei Ting's cunning old man's tricks in their hearts.
Zhang Gongjin seemed to be inspired by Wei Ting's strategy and started talking about it too.
"We might as well take advantage of the fact that the Khitan army was defeated by Qin Wenyuan and extorted their property to instigate people to the Khitan tribe. Xu Tian's purpose in governing western Liaoning was to target the various ethnic groups on the grassland and instigate the Dahe Alliance to fight with these tribes.
The Xueyantuo Tribe, Mohe, Shiwei, Xi tribe and other tribes in this area often harass the cities in western Liaoning. If the Qin family army launches a full-scale counterattack because of this, we can contact the leaders of each tribe to write to the court to impeach Qin Wenyuan to suppress the various tribes and arouse the minority.
The consequences of the national forces’ hatred towards the Tang Dynasty.”
After hearing what Zhang Gongjin said, everyone laughed "haha" and praised this guy's plan as more effective than Wei Ting's plan.
Changsun Wuji brightened his face and said to everyone again with a smile.
"We have decided on such a strategy today, and all the families must work hard to implement it. I will send people to Wei Xiaojie to speak, and you and others will try to contact and persuade the leader of the Mohui of the Dahe clan."

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Xiao Yu pondered for a while and said with a solemn expression.
"I must not reveal anything about what happened today. The leader of the Dahe clan, Mo Hui, has some friendship with Xiao. I will find an opportunity to test him and report the impact of the situation in western Liaoning on the Khitan. I am sure Mo Hui will listen.
You understand what we mean, Lord Zhang, Lord Wei, Lord Wang and others will try their best to use their family power to instigate the hatred of Khitan, Xue Yantuo, Mohe, Shiwei, and Xi against Qin Wenyuan. In this way, the matter can be settled!"
Finally, several families decided on a plan to target Qin Wenyuan. Changsun Wuji was overjoyed and called the servants in the mansion to prepare a banquet. Today, he should drink a few drinks to clear away the sullenness accumulated in his chest during this period of time in the mansion...
Just when Changsun Wuji, Xiao Yu and others had discussed how to plot against Xu Tian and were drinking heavily, Li Shimin, who returned to Yeting Palace to set up the main hall after the dynasty, was surprised to see Queen Changsun frowning.
"What's wrong with Guanyin, has anything happened?"
"Alas! Isn't it the prince's business?"
"What's wrong with the emperor!"
Li Shimin couldn't help but asked loudly when he heard that it was his daughter.
Seeing her husband's behavior, Empress Changsun slowly began to talk about the beginning of the matter.
But it turned out that when Changsun Chong and his elders entered the palace to greet Queen Changsun and mentioned his desire to marry Xiangcheng, this guy somehow escaped into the imperial garden of Yeting Palace and suddenly heard something good in the garden.
The sound of musical instruments came, and I followed the sound and looked forward. I saw Xiangcheng, his younger brother Li Zhi, and his younger sister Douzi playing the piano and making music in the garden pavilion. They were hiding behind a tree. Occasionally, I heard Li Zhi and Douzi joking about their sister.
Because I missed Qin Wenyuan, I borrowed the piano to soothe my thoughts.
After hearing such news, Changsun Chong was furious. After standing there wondering what to think, he adjusted his emotions and appeared in the pavilion to see Jin Wang Li Zhi and the princess. He smiled sinisterly and lied that he had passed by this place by chance.
"Just now, Wei Chen heard some pleasant music and came here following the sound. Unexpectedly, it was King Jin and the two princesses who were playing here. Wei Chen, please forgive me for being so reckless!"
Seeing that it was Zhang Sun Chong, King Jin didn't think much and said softly with a smile on his childish face.
"Cousin, there's no need to be polite. Since you see me here with my sister and my little sister, there's no harm in sitting down."
Changsun Chong thanked the King of Jin and asked exaggeratedly when he saw the guitar instrument in Xiangcheng's hand.
"The piano in the hands of sister Xiangcheng is extremely exquisite. The sound of the piano just now must have come from this piano. My cousin has never seen such a weird instrument. Can I borrow it for a look?"
Princess Xiangcheng was unhappy when she saw Changsun Chong. The girl had already known from the conversation between her father and her mother that this man wanted to marry her. She had always been afraid that her mother would make the decision to betroth her to the Changsun family as her daughter-in-law. She thought of her relationship with Qin Wenyuan.
She was in love with each other, how could she be on good terms with this guy? She stood up and wanted to leave with Douzi, but she heard that this guy wanted to borrow her beloved thing, and when she was about to politely refuse, Douzi's sister was smiling playfully and coquettishly.
said the voice.
"This is a token of love given to my sister by my eldest brother. Even if I don't have a bag, I can't get it easily. How can I show it to my eldest grandson cousin?"
It's true, it's true! The eldest brother that Princess Douzi said must be that bastard Qin Wenyuan. You dare to touch the woman I like, which really pisses me off...
Changsun Chong thought this after hearing Princess Douzi's words, his face was gloomy and his eyes were full of jealousy towards Qin Wenyuan.
After Xiangcheng and Douzi left, Changsun Chong suppressed the hatred in his heart and resigned to the King of Jin. He went to the Lizheng Hall to see his aunt, Queen Changsun.
In the Li Zheng Palace, Queen Changsun was chatting lightly with her father Changsun Cheng's sister and biological aunt Changsun Hui. The matter they were talking about was the Changsun family's desire to marry Princess Xiangcheng.
The Changsun family had been talking to the Queen about this matter for a long time, and they could not bear it after not receiving accurate news for several months. Changsun Hui took advantage of the opportunity to pay homage to the Queen in the harem early in the morning and took Changsun Chong to Yeting Palace.
Seeing Queen Changsun, Changsun Chong knelt down and spoke.
"Chong'er pays homage to his aunt and hopes that his aunt will betroth Xiangcheng to his nephew for the sake of his father..."
Before Changsun Chong could continue speaking, Queen Changsun smiled and started talking.
"Chong'er, get up first and talk about it. I just had a conversation with your aunt about this matter. However, Xiangcheng has a marriage contract with a young master from another family. I want to find another princess in the royal family to betroth you and make a good match for you. This is the royal love for the eldest grandson.
As a favor of the family, Chong'er should keep the royal kindness in mind and be polite and courteous to the princess who marries into the eldest grandson's family."
"Auntie! Chong'er has known each other since he was a child. He has long regarded his cousin as a good match for his nephew. Moreover, his nephew has never heard of the fact that his cousin is engaged to a young master from another family. Chong'er is
Doesn't it make my aunt look down on Chong'er because she didn't do well there?"
"Didn't the Queen often praise this boy's intelligence? I remember that the Queen often brought Chong'er into the palace to play. Seeing that this boy was sincere towards that girl in Xiangcheng, the Queen would fulfill the boy's wishes.
how?"
After hearing the words of the Queen and Changsun Chong, Changsun Hui lost no time in speaking again.
Seeing that she was a member of her natal family, and thinking of all the scenes in her natal family in the past, Empress Changsun couldn't say anything else. In fact, in her heart, she was always unhappy with the fact that Qin Wenyuan had a wife and children, and always thought that her daughter would marry Qin Wenyuan.
Qin Wenyuan took advantage of that boy, and there were unmarried boys from aristocratic families like Changsun Chong who caught her eye.
Seeing that Queen Changsun was silent, Changsun Hui knew not to push her too much and arouse the Queen's resentment. This old woman knew that the wealthy family thought a lot about the marriage of their children, and would never let anything go unnoticed, often putting their interests at risk.
Put it first, of course, if it is a choice that puts both interests and character first, then it will be the most satisfactory ending.
Pulling up Changsun Chong, Changsun Hui said goodbye to the queen with a smile, and said softly before leaving.
"I would like to ask your Majesty to consider the matter of Chong'er's marriage to Xiangcheng."
After speaking, Changsun Chong took Changsun Hui and left the Lizheng Hall.
Looking at the two people leaving, Empress Changsun fell into deep thought for a moment, not knowing how to deal with the matter and frowning. She knew the character of Qin Wenyuan and Xiangcheng's affection for him. It wasn't until Li Shimin came in that her thoughts
Break up.
After hearing what Empress Changsun said, Li Shimin felt dissatisfied with the Changsun family and secretly thought.
"Whenever my daughter's turn comes to the eldest grandson's family, I can do whatever I want. That kid Qin Wenyuan is infinitely better than any of the children in your eldest grandson's family. Just because that kid keeps coming up with ideas, he can succeed without relying on the family.
You have enjoyed all the glory and wealth in this world. If your daughter does not marry such a talented person, will it be possible for your eldest grandson to think that I am a fool?"
After pondering for a long time, Li Shimin said solemnly to Queen Changsun.
"Mr. Guanyin! I have agreed to Qin Wenyuan's affairs in Xiangcheng. That boy has just calmed down the situation in western Liaoning. I don't want to upset that boy's heart due to unforeseen circumstances. I cannot agree to that boy Changsun Chong's affairs in Xiangcheng. I will choose another one in the palace.
The princess is betrothed to him. This is because I remember that my eldest grandson Wuji has contributed to me. Otherwise, what does the marriage of the eldest grandson's family have to do with me? I have my own opinion on the marriage in Xiangcheng."
After hearing what her husband said, Queen Changsun learned that Qin Wenyuan had conquered Liaoxi in just three months. She had to secretly praise this boy's ability. She then thought carefully about the eldest princess Li Xiuning's evaluation of this boy and the boy's family and teachers.
After learning about the background of the family, he finally made up his mind, so he summoned his confidant nanny to the eldest son's house to tell eldest son Hui that the marriage to his brother and princess Xiangcheng of the eldest son's family had been decided, and that the eldest grandson's family would choose another princess to marry him.
