Chapter 324: Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don’t bully the Wu family to be poor!
Sigongfang.
Duke Zhou's Mansion.
This mansion was purchased by He Lan Minzhi, and now it is advantageous for the children of the Wu family. Li Yan looked at it from afar, his eyes amused.
There are many women in power in history, but the six most famous ones are probably Mi Bazi, Lu Pheasant, Wu Zetian, Liu E, Empress Dowager Xiao and Cixi.
Except for the special situation in Cixi, women in previous dynasties were in power, and their relatives were a factor that could not be ignored.
Comparing the power of these relatives, the most miserable one is definitely Liu E, an orphan without a father and mother. The uncle is her ex-husband. She rose to power by her own ability and was blackmailed by the literati for thousands of years. When I think of civet cats for princes, I think of that vicious
Queen Mother.
The most powerful one is undoubtedly Lv Zhi, and his sister-in-law is Fan Kuai, the bravest general among Liu Bang's direct troops. The two eldest brothers participated in the whole process of Liu Bang's conquering the world. In the Battle of Pengcheng, Liu Bang was beaten by Xiang Yu and was about to leave his children and escape. At that time
His first reaction was to find his uncle. However, these two uncles were later affected by the Zhulu Rebellion, and their military achievements were hidden a lot. Their deeds had to be dug out from the records of other generals, so their reputations were far less good.
Other generals under Liu Bang.
The most famous are undoubtedly Wu Zetian’s relatives, the infamous Wu Group.
What Li Yan was about to see were the children of the Wu family, and he was quite curious.
He rode his horse to the waiting room, and was greeted by the servant who was guarding the door. He looked around, his expression changed immediately, and he saluted, "My little slave welcomes Li Jiyi!"
Li Yan is the only such young Feipao official. As long as he wears official robes, no one related to the officialdom will recognize him, and there is no need to introduce him: "Go and call out the children of the Wu family. I have a case to ask them about."
"
The servant's pupils shrank, but he did not dare to neglect and immediately retreated into the house: "Yes! Yes!"
Li Yan waited patiently, but after a moment, his ears perked up.
Because he heard faint sounds of crying and quarreling coming from the house, he couldn't help but feel a little strange.
He Lan Minzhi was indeed killed by himself, but it had nothing to do with the children of the Wu family. He just came to ask questions, and he didn't lead the guards to surround the mansion. Why were they crying inside?
Gradually, the crying sound got closer and closer, and a clear cry came out: "Brother, save me! Brother, save me! I don't want to go back to Lingnan!"
Finally, the Zhumen opened, and a group of people came out timidly.
The leader is Zhou Guogong Wu Chengsi, with a medium build and a round head. He is only twenty-five years old this year. The top of his head is actually a bit sparse. His face is covered with a thick layer of powder, which still cannot be concealed.
Looks.
He was wearing a noble purple robe, and he looked as if he was wearing a monkey's crown. When Qiu Shenji retired from his job and became an official, he was even more impressive than him when he put on his official robe and walked around with dignity.
The key is that except for this one, the other disciples of the Wu family are not much better. They are all hunched over, with poor posture, and their eyes are evasive and have no bearing.
Li Yan secretly shook his head.
Officials in the Tang Dynasty were not only handsome, but they at least had to have good facial features and outstanding temperament, otherwise they would not be able to pass the selection process for the Ministry of Civil Service.
With the appearance of the Wu family, the first impression was very bad.
Li Yan was not originally prepared to let Wu Chengsi come out, but since the other party came out in person, he could not stand on his horse to question him, so he dismounted.
Unexpectedly, Wu Chengsi saw him. He quickly stepped forward and saluted with a smile: "I have heard about Li Jiyi's name for a long time. When I see him today, I will be lucky for the next three lives. I will be lucky for the next three lives!"
Li Yan frowned as soon as he saw this person's courtesy. Is it okay with you? The dignified Duke of the first rank crossed his hands at me?
Although he knew that the children of the Wu family did not dare to stand up in front of him, it still felt wrong to be so groveling.
Li Yan was not in a hurry to ask, and returned the courtesy calmly: "You are so polite, Duke Zhou."
Wu Chengsi originally wanted to hear the reason for his visit, but unexpectedly there was no follow-up after one sentence. He could only laugh dryly and asked proactively: "I wonder if Li Jiyi is here, what are you doing?"
Li Yan didn't answer, his eyes jumped over him and glanced at Zhu Wu.
Facing that solid gaze, some of the Wu family disciples actually trembled.
In particular, an ugly man who was not much taller than the Japanese had trembling lips.
Wu Chengsi's face stiffened and he asked again: "I wonder what important business Li Jiyi has here?"
Li Yan still didn't answer, but asked: "Won't Duke Zhou introduce these people of yours to me?"
A dozen crooked melons and cracked jujubes lined up in a row are all kings in history.
For example, Liang Wangwu Sansi, "a great talent".
Except for one or two of these Wu clan kings, they all did bad things.
Li Yan finally looked at the tall Wu family member from the Japanese country: "Are you Wu Yizong?"
The word "just" made Wu Yizong change his color completely, and said tremblingly: "I didn't mean it. I really didn't mean to kill the child. The county government has pardoned my innocence. I am innocent!"
The self-destruction was successful. Li Yan's face darkened and a sharp look flashed in his eyes.
No wonder he was crying for his father and mother inside. It turned out that he had a guilty conscience and had committed a crime. He thought he was here to arrest someone.
Even though the children of the Wu family were trembling in front of him and did not dare to express their anger, in front of those ordinary people, they were like heavy mountains.
After all, they were the queen's tribe. With their sudden rise to power, they would inevitably get carried away and do evil things. They also had a high-ranking Duke taking the lead in protecting them, and ordinary officials would not dare to provoke them.
Li Yan said coldly: "Go and call the Luoyang County captain who is detaining Fa Cao to the inner guard. I want to ask you what is going on!"
The inner guard behind him immediately went to do it. Wu Chengsi's expression changed immediately when he saw it, and he quickly smiled and said: "Li Jiyi, my younger brother is not good at riding, and the horse was frightened, so he accidentally hurt someone.
Why bother?"
Li Yan ignored him at all and looked at the children of the Wu family with murderous intent in his heart: "I didn't care about you at first, but now that you are in my hands, it's time to clean it up! They are all historical celebrities, and they are used to swipe [Unnamed]
, not appropriate?”
With his martial arts skills, if he wanted to hunt down historical celebrities, he could actually do it, but it would not be worth it to become a murderous maniac just for the sake of a talent.
Therefore, except for famous talents from hostile countries and people like Li Jingxuan who were about to be beheaded for their heads, Li Yan would not do much killing.
But the children of the Wu family are really hateful beings. The parents of these people are not good people. They grew up in a place of exile like Lingnan. They are full of five poisons. If they have a little power, they will get out of control.
The key is that each person is quite famous, so you can use them to develop their talents.
But thinking about it carefully, Li Yan frowned slightly: "It's a pity that these people have poor attributes. It should be difficult to extract attribute points..."
After Tubo's experiments, he found that if the highest attribute of the celebrity he killed was lower than his own, it would be difficult to extract attribute points.
These Wu family disciples are ugly in appearance, not to mention their appearance. Look at their incompetence, not to mention their intelligence. Their physique may be okay. After all, they can survive in Lingnan. Their luck is not bad, but their highest attribute is undoubtedly their family background.
But now that Empress Wu has lost all her power and has a poor reputation, as relatives, they cannot enjoy any power at all, so their family background attributes will not be very high.
After all, this attribute is not only about fame, but also about profit. Having the false reputation of being a royal relative will not help at all, maybe not even 10 points...
"Keep the heads on your neck first and keep an eye on them. Just don't let them harm anyone!"
Li Yan glanced around the Wu family's disciples, noted down the moving attribute points of the group, and specifically named two people to come out: "Wu Yizong, Wu Sansi, you two will follow me to the inner guard, and the others will return home!"
Wu Chengsi's previous words were treated as if they didn't exist, and his anger was already welling up. Seeing that Li Yan was about to arrest someone, he finally couldn't help it, and his voice became sharp: "Li Jiyi, why are you arresting my descendant of the Wu family?"
Li Yan still ignored him and waved his hand. Several internal guards following behind him had already pounced on him like wolves and tigers.
The children of the Wu clan cried for father and mother, but the guards were happy and not afraid.
It's not entirely because Li Yan's prestige is at its peak, but it's because their arrests do not violate Tang law in the first place.
Because only Wu Chengsi could not move, this man was a first-class Duke and continued the existence of the Wu family's incense, while the other Wu family's children were all white.
At this time in history, Empress Wu became the Queen of Heaven, and the descendants of the Wu family had begun to gain official positions one after another.
For example, Wu Chengsi became the secretarial supervisor of the third rank. Although he was a high-ranking official in charge of classics and library management and did not have more real power than the three provinces and six ministries, he was still a third-rank official.
But now, Wu Chengsi is just the Duke of Zhou, and he has not even been granted a casual official position. The other children of the Wu family are all white, and they have no worries about being arrested.
Seeing that the inner guard was really taking someone, Wu Yizong jumped on his horse and hit someone. He first cried out: "Brother, save me! Brother, save me!!"
He struggled hard, the stench emanating from his body, but he was quickly picked up by the inner guards and dragged outside.
Wu Sansi didn't dare to struggle, but his face turned pale and he shouted repeatedly: "I didn't commit any crime! I didn't commit any crime!!"
The inner Wei ignored him and took Wu Sansi out, whose legs were weak.
During this period, Wu Chengsi also wanted to stop him personally: "Put down my clan brothers! Put them down!"
Until Yiyi's eyes turned around, Li Yan stared at him without saying a word. That oppressive gaze made Wu Chengsi's limbs tremble, as if he was being stared at by a tiger and he could no longer move.
When the inner guards took him under custody, Li Yan said, "If the children of the Wu family are not guilty, I will not unjustly accuse the innocent. Duke Zhou, please take my leave!"
Watching Li Yan climb onto the Lion Cong and leave in a majestic manner, Wu Chengsi lamented: "Li Yuanfang has deceived people too much. How can I, the Duke of Zhou, be the queen of the dynasty in his eyes?"
There was no response from behind.
He turned around and saw those tribesmen who had not been captured, retreating behind the red gate and looking over timidly.
Wu Chengsi was so angry that he clenched his fists and his whole body trembled: "I, the Wu family, will work hard to become stronger. One day, I will take revenge and make Li Yuanfang look good to me!"
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don’t bully the Wu family to be poor!
