Five years as county magistrate, hundreds of millions of kilograms of grain shocked Li Shimin Chapter 352 A complete fall out, Chang'an City will be in chaos
Chapter 352 A complete fall out, Chang'an City will be in chaos
"To be precise, it was against the Boling Cui family in Chang'an City."
"Your Majesty, the other party has completely turned against you, you can't just give in to them, right?"
Fang Yuan said in a deep voice.
He knew that Li Shimin was worried more.
But now it is almost certain that Qiwang, the fifth surname, is supporting a man named Qingshan in Qingzhou.
In just half a month, this talented man from Qingshan not only became an emperor with a destiny, but also gained the love of the local people, and many people took refuge in him.
"Your Majesty, I thought that since I have attacked Cui Zhentang, I will be ruthless and give the Boling Cui family a heavy blow!"
Li Daozong suddenly agreed.
As a member of the royal family, Li Daozong was very dissatisfied with the arrogance of Qiwang of the Five Surnames.
Now is a rare opportunity. The patriarch of the Five Surnames and Qiwang is not in Chang'an City, and his prestige is much lower. Cui Zhentang happened to have committed a crime.
Then use this opportunity to hit the Bolingcui family hard, and it is best to completely destroy the Bolingcui family's branch in Chang'an City.
"What's the reason?"
Li Shimin took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
After hearing the suggestions from Fang Yuan and Li Daozong, Li Shimin became excited.
It’s like going back to the days when we were strong and brave, fighting the enemy bravely.
"Your Majesty, Cui Zhentang is addicted to copper smelting. The Ministry of Punishment can arrest him for this."
"Then use the Boling Cui family to protect Cui Zhentang, help Cui Zhentang smelt copper, and take away relevant important figures to cooperate with the investigation."
Liu Zhenghui also spoke out.
This is a rare opportunity.
If you want to fuck the Boling Cui family, it’s best to do it now.
If you don't do it, there is no need to continue talking.
"In that case, Li Daozong and Liu Zhenghui leave it to you!"
"I only have one thing to say, take action quickly, the rest of the five surnames hope that I will be held back by you."
Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
The leaders of the two major judicial departments are willing to take action, so why should they hesitate?
"I obey the decree!"
Li Daozong and Liu Zhenghui took the order and left.
Not long after, Li Shimin and Fang Yuan were the only ones left in the Imperial Study Room.
Fang Yuan was about to say goodbye to Li Shimin, but he stopped him.
"Fang Yuan, I have something to arrange for you."
"Have your guns ready and wait for my orders at any time."
"I didn't give you an order, and the fire gun couldn't appear."
Li Shimin said in a deep voice.
He has long known the true power of firecrackers.
However, he updated to see how much difference there is between imperial power and the power of aristocratic families.
Li Shimin knew that the other five surnames and Qi Wang would definitely not stand idly by and watch the decision made today.
At that time, the imperial court will no longer target the Boling Cui family, but the five surnames and Qi Wang will all target the imperial court. One move will affect the whole body.
"I understand."
Fang Yuan nodded.
Finally, I bid farewell to Li Shimin and left.
As Fang Yuan left the palace, the Criminal Department and Dali Temple began to take action.
"The emperor has ordered that Cui Zhentang, the Minister of Household Affairs, is suspected of smelting copper and causing the death of several people. He will be immediately suspended from office and taken to the Ministry of Punishment for a joint trial by the three departments!"
"According to investigation, Cui Jinchang, Cui Zhijing and many other people of Boling Cui clan facilitated Cui Zhentang, the Minister of Household Affairs, and conspired to conspire in the copper smelting case, and were taken away for investigation."
The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple took action at the same time.
Two people appeared at the door of the Boling Cui family, with a total of about a hundred people.
This is the largest number of people jointly dispatched by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.
However, this small number of people is nothing more than a mantis with a large family like Bolingcui.
Therefore, the Boling Cui family did not panic at all and calmly welcomed the arrival of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.
"King Rencheng, my subordinates told me that Cui Zhentang is insane. Are you, the Ministry of Punishment, and Dali Temple so inhumane?"
Cui Yuanting appeared with his tribe.
The Bolingcui clan members all glared at Li Daozong and others.
The Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple jointly arrived, led by Li Daozong. Liu Zhenghui did not come because he had other arrangements.
"Is that so? Please go with me and have your own doctor examine you."
"In addition, Magistrate Cui, please do not obstruct official duties, otherwise you will be suspended from office."
Li Daozong said in a deep voice.
He and Liu Zhenghui discussed not to arrest Cui Yuanting.
Cui Yuanting is the magistrate of Chang'an County and has certain powers. If he is arrested, the repercussions will be huge.
If you don't catch him, you may be lucky and your resistance may be weaker.
Sure enough, after Cui Yuanting heard this, his face changed slightly, and he had other plans in mind.
He seriously thought about it. There were many people taken away together, but they were close relatives of Cui Zhentang.
In other words, Li Shimin only acted impartially and did not take the opportunity to target Boling Cui?!
But,
"Suspension? Just you?"
"Without the emperor's decree, you cannot suspend me from my post, and I will not take Cui Zhentang away for you!"
Cui Yuanting said in a deep voice.
He has a sense of luck, but he doesn't want to try.
Now that Qiwang and the emperor have fallen out, there is no use taking chances.
Before the emperor moved Cui Zhentang, the group they left in Chang'an City was considered to have surrendered to Li Shimin.
But when Li Shimin wants to touch them, they will no longer submit to Li Shimin, and Li Shimin will not really want to accept them.
"Magistrate Cui, we are here on orders, please cooperate!"
Li Daozong said in a deep voice.
As a prince, it is really embarrassing to talk to a county magistrate like this.
"If you can't cooperate, please come back!"
Cui Yuanting has a firm attitude.
The tribesmen behind him also glared at Li Daozong.
The prince is a big shot outside, but he was just like that before the Bolingcui clan.
"Do it!"
Li Daozong's face darkened and he immediately ordered.
People from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple immediately walked towards Cui Yuanting and others.
"Anyone who dares to break into the Bolingcui family will be beaten out with sticks!"
Cui Yuanting went back.
The insulted Bolingcui clan members rushed out immediately.
Facing the people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, they showed no fear at all.
People from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were worried that things would get too big to deal with, but they were not afraid.
They held long sticks and beat the people in the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple.
The news that Cui Zhentang was about to be arrested soon spread throughout Chang'an City.
People were shocked and frightened by the emperor's sudden move.
Is it to enforce the law impartially and arrest Cui Zhentang and those who helped him, or is it to target the Boling Cui family?
After hearing the news, Qiwang of the fifth surname became vigilant immediately and called all the clan members outside to return to the house.
But the strange thing is that everyone who has an official position is suddenly very busy and cannot leave the body, so the five surnames and Qiwang were not able to discuss the results immediately.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading!
As for the Boling Cui family, Li Daozong did not get any benefits. After the incident caused a fight between the two sides, the odds of winning by the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple were not high.
Just as it was getting dark, Li Daozong left with people from the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple, and then came back again.
But when he came back again, Li Daozong arrived with three thousand Jin Wu guards, as fierce as if he wanted to break through the door of Boling Cui family.
At this time, Cui Zhentang recovered from his depression. When he learned about the situation, he almost became angry to death. He immediately discussed with the family elders and launched the family's first defense.
As night falls, the moon tonight seems to be stained with blood.
It is completely silent, but it gives people a feeling of depression and danger.
Fang Yuan left Fang Mansion overnight with Xue Rengui and Xue Bowu, several masters, and went to the research institute to wait for news about Li Shimin.
In the night sky, it was not just Fang Yuan who was moving, there were more people moving.
Almost no one from the aristocratic family slept, especially the fifth surname Qiwang, who almost all rushed back home after dark.
Boling Cui's entrance.
Li Daozong brought three thousand Jinwu guards.
The army surrounded the Bolingcui family's residence with a fierce momentum.
"Your Majesty has an order, please ask Cui Zhentang, the Minister of Household Affairs, to take over the order!"
Li Daozong held the imperial edict and shouted loudly.
In the dead of night, the sound spreads wider.
Not talking about the entire Bolingcui family's mansion, but half of the people in the mansion heard it.
The Bolingcui family is very big and there are many people living there, which is beyond imagination.
When they learned that the imperial army was surrounding them, they all became uneasy and panicked.
Not long after, Cui Zhentang, Cui Yuanting and a group of elders appeared.
"Cui Zhentang accepts the order!"
Cui Zhentang said in a deep voice.
He already knows what happened during the day.
But since the emperor hasn't turned against him yet, he should just pretend to do it first.
"Your Majesty has an order! Cui Zhentang, the Minister of Household Affairs, is addicted to copper smelting, which caused the death and disability of several girls. He will be suspended from office for investigation from now on!"
"Cui Zhentang, please follow me to Dali Temple!"
Li Daozong took back the imperial edict and said in a deep voice.
He feels that there will be a tough battle tonight.
Li Shimin asked him to take responsibility because he thought of the possibility.
After all, Liu Zhenghui is old and a civil servant, which is difficult to deal with.
"Where's the evidence?"
Cui Zhentang said in a deep voice.
He has already killed all the domestic slaves who knew about it.
The family that had seen him also sent a killer to assassinate him at all costs.
In this case, the emperor should have no proof to prove that he was the one who harmed those girls.
"Leave with me and cooperate with the investigation."
Li Daozong said in a deep voice.
"Without evidence, I won't go with you!"
Cui Zhentang said in a deep voice.
The strength of the Bolingcui family lies here.
If Li Daozong wants to force himself, he must be prepared for the possibility of chaos.
"The evidence is there!"
Li Daozong winked at the assistant on the side.
The soldier immediately understood and led the people towards Cui Zhentang.
"Just two soldiers want to arrest me?"
Cui Zhentang sneered.
Someone immediately behind him stopped the soldiers from moving.
After a while, the atmosphere on both sides became tense.
"Take it!"
Li Daozong's eyes turned cold and he didn't want to delay it any longer.
If the delay continues, I don’t know what other aristocratic families will do.
"Take it!"
Three thousand soldiers immediately took action.
They all pushed towards Cui Zhentang.
Cui Zhentang and others stepped aside with cold faces.
Immediately, clan soldiers ready to go appeared in the mansion.
One hundred, two hundred, three hundred. Soon eight hundred clan soldiers appeared.
Li Daozong looked at him coldly, surprised that the Boling Cui clan only had 800 clan soldiers.
It's not that the number of people is large, but that the number of people is small, and it doesn't look like the data of a super family.
In fact, what Li Daozong didn't know was that after Cui Runyu left, a large part of the clan soldiers left.
What remains are some clan soldiers who are on the verge of elimination, as well as domestic slaves who were forcibly brought in by Cui Zhentang and others to act as a deterrent.
Li Daozong remained unmoved and looked at the two sides slowly approaching with expressionless expressions, watching them take action.
The two sides fought fiercely!
At first, no weapons were used.
Later, I don’t know who drew the knife first, and the situation changed!
In terms of numbers and strength, the Jinwu Guards had a great advantage, and the soldiers of the Bolingcui clan fell one by one.
Cui Zhentang, Cui Yuanting and others looked on with ugly expressions.
If things continue like this, the Bolingcui family will suffer heavy losses tonight.
But,
At this time, sounds suddenly came from all directions in the street.
There were sounds of running from several directions, and hundreds or even thousands of people came for support.
"The Cui family of Qinghe came with eight hundred soldiers to ask why!"
"The Taiyuan Wang family led eight hundred tribesmen to come and ask why!"
"The Zheng clan from Xingyang came with eight hundred soldiers to ask why!"
"The Fan Yang Lu family came with eight hundred soldiers to ask why!"
Four teams appeared.
They all arrived with eight hundred clan soldiers.
It was so loud that their voices filled the whole night.
People who had fallen asleep were awakened, feeling that something big was going to happen tonight.
Among the five surnames and seven hopes, except for the Li family of Longxi and the Li family of Zhaojun, all the other surnames came.
At this moment, more than 8,000 people gathered at the door of the Bolingcui clan, and it suddenly became a huge battlefield.
The war that was about to become incandescent has stopped.
Cui Zhentang, Cui Yuanting and others looked much better, but it was Li Daozong's turn to look bad.
"Are your five surnames and Qi Wang going to rebel?!"
Li Daozong shouted.
My worries happened after all.
Fortunately, the Longxi Li family and the Zhaojun Li family did not come, otherwise the situation would have been even more serious.
After the rise of the Longxi Li family and the Zhaojun Li family with the small branch of Li Shimin, they had different internal opinions on the royal family Li family.
Some still looked down on the royal family Li, while others were secretly won over by Li Shimin and secretly submitted to Li Shimin.
In this way, these two groups did not show up tonight.
"We have no intention of rebellion!"
"But the imperial court's treatment of the Boling Cui family chilled the hearts of scholars all over the world."
"People who have worked hard for the country for most of their lives cannot be treated with courtesy, but they are plotted against them. It is so unfair!"
Cui Zhentang stood up and said in a deep voice.
The higher you are at a senior level, the more important you are to do things that are right and proper.
Justifying the name will reduce a lot of invisible resistance and increase the success rate.
"I said it, and there is evidence!"
"Everyone knows what happened in front of the White Tiger Club."
"Cui Zhentang, please follow me back, don't make it difficult for me!"
Li Daozong said with a dark face.
Faced with the Bolingcui family's repeated failure to achieve the desired results, Li Daozong was already very angry.
Now that I see almost everyone from the five surnames and Qiwang here, I feel despised and feel even more unhappy.
"Everyone knows it can't be true."
"King Rencheng, I also ask you not to be aggressive!"
Cui Zhentang said in a deep voice.
Even if he is proven guilty tonight, he will not leave.
Given his identity, Li Daozong would definitely not torture him if he took him away.
But following the past like this will confirm the current situation and further damage the reputation of the Bolingcui family.
The reputation of the Bolingcui family cannot be tarnished, and the glory of the family will last forever!
"In this case, let's see the real trick on the ground!"
Li Daozong took a deep breath and said in a deep voice.
The emperor has issued a death order and has made other preparations.
Then just follow the requirements and leave the rest to Li Shimin.
He didn't believe it. There was no hope of victory between three thousand and five thousand.
With that said, Li Daozong drew his sword for the first time and walked towards Cui Zhentang with a stern face.
Cui Zhentang and others' expressions changed, but they gritted their teeth and made a decision.
With a wave of his hand, the soldiers of the Bolingcui clan immediately took action.
Seeing this, the soldiers of other aristocratic families took action one after another, and the fighting began.
