Changsun Chong slowly opened his eyes, and what he saw was a cold face.
That was Changsun Wuji's angry face.
Swish.
Changsun was so frightened that he immediately sat up.
"Dad...you, you, you...why are you here?"
Snapped.
What came back to Changsun Chong was a loud slap in the face.
Changsun Wuji pointed at Changsun Chong with his trembling right hand and said angrily: "You traitor... you traitor, you did this behind my back. What kind of anti-Du He alliance is this? They are just a bunch of cats and dogs, and you still want to deal with Du He, but you don't know that you
You were deceived like this...I asked you to reflect on your mistakes at home, but it's better for you to sneak out quietly and still want to cause trouble. Do you still think of me as your father?"
Changsun Chong covered his face and said aggrievedly: "Dad, didn't you say at the beginning that all matters concerning Beast King Mountain and Coal Balls would be left to me?"
Snapped.
Before he finished speaking, Changsun Chong received another slap in the face.
Changsun Wuji said angrily: "From today on, you can't even think about leaving Sikong Mansion for half a step. You can reflect on your mistakes at home. Humph, I, Changsun Wuji, have lost all my face by you."
Changsun Chong did not dare to speak.
Changsun Wuji said: "Fortunately, we only lost tens of thousands of coins this time. Starting from tomorrow, all the newly recruited people from Beast King Mountain will be dismissed. Every time you suffer, you will gain wisdom. Please remember this sentence."
.”
Tens of thousands of guan is nothing to the Changsun family. Changsun Wuji actually cares more about his reputation and doesn't want to be treated as a joke.
At this moment, the butler Wang Fu hurriedly ran in from outside.
"Master, something bad has happened...the workers in Beast King Mountain have rebelled, rebelled..."
What?
Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong looked at each other and opened their mouths in surprise.
Soon, Changsun Wuji knew the general outline of the matter.
The workers at the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine are actually not called a rebellion, but a riot.
The previous group of people each had ten cents a day.
Later, in order to reduce the cost of briquettes, Changsun Chong arbitrarily reduced everyone's wages to eight cents, and then to five cents, and even to three cents. Later, the newly recruited people were fed three times a day, and they could not afford a cent.
No.
In this way, Changsun Chong did make money, but those people, especially the previous group of craftsmen, stopped working. So on this windy and snowy night, the people injured the guards, destroyed the houses, and asked the Changsun family for help.
An argument.
At the same time, riots also occurred in the coal mines of other large households in Chang'an City.
Changsun Wuji and Changsun Chong hurried to the Beast King Mountain with dozens of guards from the Sikong Mansion. They thought they could settle the matter, but they didn't know that the scene was in chaos. A dozen of the first wave of guards were injured before they even got off their horses.
Helpless, Changsun Wuji had no choice but to ask the Imperial Army for help.
Later, General Li Junxian of the Youyu Forest Guard personally led a thousand forbidden troops to bring the situation in the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine under control.
…
Fourth watch.
The lights are still on in the courtyard of the president of Banshan College.
Du He sat behind the table, which was filled with information from all over the place, including information from Chang'an City, from outside the city, and from various wealthy houses.
If anyone were present, they would be shocked and speechless, because Du He was in Banshan College, but he had a very clear grasp of the whole matter, especially the situation in the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine. Du He knew about it earlier than Changsun Wuji.
, know the truth earlier.
This is the true scholar who knows everything about the world without going out.
Zhang Jian stood aside and hesitated to speak.
Du He raised his head, looked at this guy, and said, "You want to tell me that such a big thing happened in Beast King Mountain, and it's all due to you, right?"
"Yes, yes," Zhang Jian said excitedly, "Master, according to your arrangement, I have already arranged for people to go to the Beast King Mountain Coal Mine. Since a few days ago, the people have become restless. Hehe, I learned the news
After that, I sent a few people over to fan the flames and light the fire. Unexpectedly, it happened, hehe..."
Du He was speechless for a while.
Zhang Jian is getting more and more sinister.
He asked: "Are there any deaths?"
Zhang Jian shook his head: "No, brothers all know what is right. They decided that people were injured. Those people are poor people and they don't dare to take lives."
Du He looked out the window and said, "Let's go over everything again."
…
boom.
Tai Chi Palace, Imperial Study Room.
Li Er's mood can be described as furious.
Before dawn, Changsun Wuji and Zhang Su rushed into the palace to plead guilty. When they arrived at the Tai Chi Hall, they found out that Li Er had not slept all night.
It turned out that Li Junxian had no right to mobilize troops last night, so he had to wake Li Er up in a desperate situation. After Li Er woke up, he could no longer sleep.
Changsun Wuji stood aside, while Changsun Chong crawled on the ground.
Li Eryi patted the table, pointed at the two of them, and said in a tone of indifference: "Auxiliary machine, auxiliary machine, the good son you taught is young and has not learned anything else, but he has learned this thing of bullying the people, hum.
Thousands of people live in the Beast King Mountain just to have enough to eat every day, and sometimes they don't even have enough to eat. Do you think those people are stupid? It's just a day or two. As time goes by, how can they not cause trouble?
?Fortunately, no one was killed. Otherwise, how would you ask me to explain to the DPRK and the people of the world..."
Li Er looked at Changsun Chong again and said angrily: "Changsun Chong, as a young minister of Dali Temple, if you don't study well with Wei Ting, but think about making money all day long, do you deserve my trust?"
Changsun Chong muttered: "Your Majesty, even Du He can make money!"
Snapped.
Before Li Er could speak, Changsun Wuji turned around and slapped him: "You bastard, although Du He is the Marquis of Huyi County, he has no official position in the court. Besides, it took Du He more than half a year to become the richest man in Chang'an.
, what ability do you have to compare with him?"
Creaky.
At this time, the door of the imperial study room opened.
Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Wang Gui, Li Jing, Gao Shilian and others hurried in. These people were all important officials in the court and were the most core members around Li Er.
This matter should not be publicized, so Li Er did not intend to discuss it in the morning.
After everyone arrived, Li Er asked: "My dear friends, you must know the whole story. I have called you here so early just to let everyone come up with a countermeasure to properly resolve this matter."
Yuchi Gong, who has not been in front of Li Er for a long time, has become more high-profile since Yuchi Baolin became a man from Lantian County.
He was the first to stand up and said: "Your Majesty, it is not difficult to solve this matter. As the saying goes, every injustice has its own debtor. Since this matter was caused by the Sikong Mansion, let the Sikong Mansion clean up the matter.
Ass, first of all, give those people enough compensation to appease their emotions. Secondly, Beast King Mountain Coal Mine should also learn from Lantian Coal Mine. Workers in Lantian Coal Mine have a minimum wage of twenty cash per day. Beast King Mountain should also do the same..."
Even though Yu Chigong was a big boss, he did it without blinking an eye when he tried to harm the eldest grandson family.
