At the feet of the Emperor of Kyoto, there are many powerful officials and countless dandy children. Many of their families have backgrounds and are young and vigorous. Almost every month, Liu Dayou, as the order of the capital, handles several such cases.
This kind of case is difficult to say or difficult to say.
Those high-ranking sects are very respectable, and often do not need to go through the county government. The two families involved will resolve the matter privately. If it is not resolved privately, he can resolve the case fairly. Today's county government is no longer what it used to be.
As long as you uphold the word "reason", you don't have to be afraid of any so-called wealthy family.
However, this time the situation is different.
The Wang family can be said to be the most powerful family in the dynasty. Although the Li family, where the minister of official affairs is located, is far inferior to the Wang family, it is backed by a thicker tree. Besides, the Wang and Li families have good personal relations. He is an outsider, so he still doesn't want to
Intervene.
Li Yi listened to County Magistrate Liu explain what happened in detail on the way.
It was nothing more than young people being jealous and refusing to give in. The conflict developed from verbal conflict to physical conflict, and then to a brawl between the two parties. In the process, the brothel was smashed, which led to the arrest of the county government.
When Li Yi and Li Xuan walked into the county government office, people from both families were already there.
It is natural for the elders not to interfere in the affairs of the younger generation. The person from the Li family is the current general housekeeper. Li Yi also knows the person from the Wang family. Wang Yong, the next head of the Wang family, has been repeatedly pushed to the front by the Wang family these days. He wants to be the head of the family.
The position should be stable.
Since Wang Yong knew Li Xuan, he hurriedly stood up and stepped forward, saying respectfully: "Wang Yong, see your Majesty!"
"See Your Majesty!"
As soon as he said these words, the audience burst into laughter and fell to their knees.
Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "I just came over to take a look. Get up and decide how the case should be decided."
Wang Yong nodded respectfully, then turned to look at Li Yi, and said with an apologetic expression: "Brother Li, I have caused you trouble today. Wang Jian is the son of my second uncle. I don't know how high the world is. When I go back, I will make sure that my second uncle treats him in the future."
Tighten the discipline, the Wang family will compensate for the loss to the brothel, and will prepare a generous gift to apologize tomorrow. I'm really sorry..."
Li Yi waved his hand and said: "Brother Wang, you don't have to be like this. It's normal to be young and energetic. You and I have also experienced this time. I already asked Magistrate Liu when I came here. Both of us are wrong about this matter. That brothel
How can the Wang family bear all the losses? As for the apology, let’s not mention it again.”
Wang Yong knew his character and didn't say much. He nodded. When he turned around, his face darkened and he said in a cold voice: "Why don't you make amends to me!"
The majesty of the acting head of the family is still very useful. A young man in disheveled clothes bowed to the other person opposite and said, "I'm sorry."
The other person also bowed and apologized.
The junior member of the Wang family was quickly taken away by the Wang family's servants, and Li Yingjie was also taken away by the housekeeper.
This was originally a conflict between the younger generations of the two families. No one would care. Wang Yong turned around and smiled and said: "My father also said a few days ago that I haven't seen Brother Li for a long time. I almost drank all the tea sent by the Li family during the New Year."
Already..."
Li Yi smiled and said: "If Mr. Wang likes to drink, I will have someone bring some more someday."
"There is no need to change the date." Li Xuan waved his hand and said, "Qin'er happens to be at Wang's house these days. I may not have been to Wang's house for a long time, so why not just today..."
…
Wang family.
The young man rubbed the bruises on his face and said with an unhappy look: "Brother, why do you want me to apologize? I'm not the only one who was wrong!"
A middle-aged man said solemnly: "Who caused you to have a conflict with the Li family?"
The expression on the young man's face became even more unconvinced, "What's wrong with the Li family? Should my Wang family still be afraid of their Li family? The queen's surname is Wang, and my Wang family is also a century-old family. What else does the Li family have besides Li Yi? Why should we?"
Afraid of him?"
"Shut up!" The head of the Wang family, who had never spoken, glared at him and said in a deep voice.
"You bastard, what are you talking about!" The middle-aged man stepped forward, raised his palm, and shook it helplessly, saying, "Is this what you can say?"
"That's what it is!"
The young man curled his lips and said: "He is so young and so powerful. Now he even has to compete with his uncle for the position of prime minister. Throughout the ages, people like this who dominate the government will eventually be feared by the emperor. Which one will end well?
!”
"By now, all the officials are very afraid of him, and His Majesty cannot tolerate him for too long. It would be better if he knows what's going on and retires early. Otherwise, I think what will happen to him in the end!"
"shut up!"
A stern voice rang in everyone's ears, but it did not come from anyone in the hall.
Wang Yong walked in from the outside alone. The young man opened his mouth and wanted to say something. Wang Yong picked up the chair at hand and hit him hard on the head.
The chair fell apart in an instant, which showed Wang Yong's great strength.
The young man fell to the ground. His nose was bruised and his face was swollen. At this moment, his head was bleeding profusely, but he had not fainted yet. He looked at him in disbelief and murmured: "You..."
"Haven't you said enough?" Wang Yong glanced at him, and when he picked up the second chair, everyone in the hall came back to their senses. The head of the Wang family stood up and was shocked: "Yong'er, what are you doing?"
Wang Yong threw down his chair, shook his head, and said, "Your Majesty and Marquis Li were outside just now."
As soon as these words came out, the faces of everyone in the Wang family suddenly changed.
…
"Wang family..." Li Xuan's face was gloomy, with a look of disappointment that could not be concealed in his eyes.
Li Yi smiled and said nonchalantly: "He cannot represent the Wang family."
Li Xuan suddenly looked at him and asked, "Do you think the courtiers really think so?"
"What are you thinking about?" Li Yi took a sip of wine and asked casually.
"They think you have too much power, and they think I will be afraid of you." Li Xuan stood up and said, "In that case, I will ask them to open their eyes and see..."
Li Yi had a bad premonition in his heart and asked, "What are you going to do?"
"You'll know tomorrow." Li Yi said calmly and strode out of the door.
A moment later, the same position.
Wang Yong looked complicated, sighed, and said: "Father has asked him to return to Luochuan. He will never set foot in Kyoto again in his life."
Li Yi shook his head: "Why bother..."
"Sister will explain it to His Majesty." Wang Yong lowered his head and said, "The Wang family will always be friends of the Li family. Brother Li, please don't think too much about it."
The people and even the court officials believed that the Wang family was the largest family in Jingguo today. With the power of the Wang family, they could run rampant in Jingguo without fear.
The Cui family thought the same way at first, so the Cui family died.
From that time on, he knew that some people could only be friends and not enemies.
Wang Yong came to apologize on behalf of the Wang family and brought a very generous gift. He had to accept this gift. Failure to accept it would mean rejection and break up with the Wang family. He was just an arrogant dude and could not represent the Wang family.
Li Yi knew this, and besides, it was difficult to withdraw from such a respectful ceremony...
Li Yi met Mingzhu in the afternoon.
"What happened between you and the Wang family?" Li Mingzhu walked in from the outside and said in surprise: "The queen asked me to tell you that what happened today was not what the Wang family wanted."
Li Yi waved his hand and said, "It's just a misunderstanding."
Li Mingzhu looked at him and asked doubtfully: "Then what are you worried about?"
