And on the sixth day.

The person Li Xuan was waiting for finally arrived!

Li Xiaogong, Prince of Hejian County!

Li Xuan had always thought that the most likely visitor would be Changsun Wuji, or advisers such as Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and Wei Zheng.

But he never expected that it would be Li Xiaogong.

However, after seeing the group of aristocratic family heads locked up in the Wang family mansion and seeing Li Xiaogong's expression, Li Xuan understood!

"I see you, Lord Hejian!"

"Students and others meet Prince Hejian!"

Standing in the main hall, all the people from aristocratic families looked at Li Xiaogong with respect, and even Li Xuan could see the traces of fear in the eyes of the heads of these aristocratic families.

"Master Wang, Master Yuan, Master Xie... Hahaha, long time no see. I didn't expect you all to still be so healthy after so many years!"

Li Xiaogong's face was full of joy, as if he had met a friend he hadn't seen for many years.

However, when this kind of smile fell in the eyes of those aristocratic families, they all shrank their necks subconsciously, as if they were seeing a devil's smile.

"What Your Highness said is absolutely true. We haven't seen each other for a long time! However, although we have lived in Jiangning for a long time, we can still hear His Majesty's reputation from time to time. He conquered Tuyuhun in the west and swept away the Tubo Hozen, which made great achievements for me.

The Tang Dynasty opened up its territory and expanded its territory..."

"Your Highness is as brave as before, which I and others admire greatly!"

For a moment, all the heads of the aristocratic families praised Li Xiaogong fiercely!

Li Xiaogong, on the other hand, squinted his eyes and enjoyed it for a while, then his expression straightened.

"Okay, okay, we've finished talking about the old friendship, let's start talking about business!"

Hearing this, all the heads of the aristocratic families looked at Li Xiaogong nervously.

Li Xiaogong snorted coldly, "Your Majesty heard that you have been entrenched in Jiangning for so many years and have disobeyed the emperor. Not only did you hide your soldiers secretly, but you also openly used weapons against the prince of Tang Dynasty and the king of Jin.

Moreover, even the annexation agreement signed face-to-face with His Majesty two years ago can be violated in a fair and just way?"

The faces of the heads of the aristocratic families changed greatly.

"Please also ask the Prince of Hejian County to listen to the explanation from the old man and others!"

"Explain what?"

Li Xiaogong's expression changed again, and a pressure that Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others had never seen before rushed directly towards the heads of the aristocratic families.

"In broad daylight, thousands of soldiers raised by the royal family shouted at the prince and the king of Jin to kill him at the gate of the royal family. Do you still want to ignore this matter?"

"Also, there are at least thousands of people around Jiangning City. They have been threatened by your family in the past two years. Thousands of young people have been forced to join your family as slaves and go to cultivate fields in your vassal country.

, do you want to deny this?"

"Or maybe you also want to deny the thousands of tenant slaves of the Tang Dynasty who appear in your country?"

"this……"

The faces of all the heads of the aristocratic families changed drastically, and they realized that the man in Chang'an City had already known everything they were doing in private.

Beside them, Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others stood quietly, watching all this with expressions on their faces as if they were watching a show.

Ever since they came to Jiangning City, the people of these aristocratic families have always looked like dead pigs who are not afraid of boiling water. They are not worried at all about what Li Xuan and Li Chengqian can do to them!

Indeed, just by violating the agreement, hundreds or even thousands of people in the Tang Dynasty were harmed privately!

For these aristocratic families, these minor crimes are nothing more than a trivial matter!

Li Xuan, Li Chengqian and others were unable to cause any substantial harm to these deep-rooted aristocratic families.

Only the Wang family was used to being arrogant and domineering. They never expected that the King of Jin and the Crown Prince would come all the way to trouble them with their guards. The housekeeper in their family did not recognize the King of Jin and the Crown Prince, directly putting the Wang family into a certain death situation.

!

As for the Meng family, they are also used to being arrogant, and they just hit the edge of the knife by themselves!

The remaining heads of the aristocratic families, all of whom have matured, have already come up with good countermeasures in the past few days.

Everything has even been arranged through the butler.

But they never expected that His Majesty would send Hejian County Prince Li Xiaogong.

Who is Li Xiaogong?

Other aristocratic families can ignore Li Xiaogong, but these Jiangnan aristocratic families dare not forget him!

In the past, during the Wude period, General Li of the family was the general manager of Jingzhou. He controlled several states south of the Yangtze River. He had many powerful generals under his command and thousands of troops. He conquered most of the south of the Yangtze River.

For this reason, most of the aristocratic families south of the Yangtze River faced Li Xiaogong's soldiers and were forced by Li Xiaogong to surrender to Li Tang.

And Li Xiaogong was also secretly called the "King of Jiangnan" by a group of Jiangnan aristocratic families!

Although now, Li Xiaogong has been transferred back to Chang'an and will soon become an idle king of the Tang Dynasty!

However, these aristocratic families would not naively believe that Li Xiaogong did not secretly leave any influence in Jiangnan?

Or maybe the shameful evidence of their families that Li Xiaogong controlled back then has been destroyed?

Moreover, they have all experienced Li Xiaogong's ruthlessness and cunningness, and now they still have lingering fears when they think about it.

Now, Li Xiaogong has come here on the edict of the sage, and these aristocratic families have still made mistakes before, so how can they live well?

Thinking about it, the heads of these aristocratic families are all filled with heavy hearts!

"Why are you silent?"

Li Xiaogong asked coldly.

"Your Highness, what the Wang family has done is extremely treasonous and unethical, and they should be exterminated! Their royal title should also be removed, and the feudal kingdom should be put away!"

The head of the Xie family quickly spoke.

Seeing this, several family heads on the side also hurriedly spoke in agreement.

"Exactly, the Wang family should be destroyed!"

"Your Highness, the head of the Meng family has committed the crime of deceiving the emperor. This branch in Jiangning City should be destroyed!"

"Your Highness..."

Seeing this, a trace of satisfaction flashed in Li Xiaogong's eyes.

Li Xuan and Li Chengqian, on the other hand, snorted coldly at the heads of the aristocratic families. They had been imprisoned by them for so long and they did not admit any fault.

Now, when Li Xiaogong comes, these old thieves are so attentive and even a little groveling!

"Brother Wang, since these aristocratic families dare to openly violate the agreement, whether they know it or not, or whether the family members do it privately, they are violating the vassalage agreement signed with His Majesty. They must withdraw their royal titles and take back their royalties.

Seal the country!"

Li Xuan said coldly.

"Exactly, since you dare to violate the agreement, you should bear the consequences. Otherwise, where is the majesty of the imperial court and where is the dignity of my father?"

Li Chengqian also said angrily.

After saying that, a few people turned around and left, regardless of the faces of the people from the aristocratic families who changed drastically.

Now that Li Xiaogong, who is playing tricks with these old thieves from aristocratic families, is here, there is no need for them to keep an eye on these old foxes every day.

Immediately, Li Xuan and Li Chengqian directly ordered the personal guards and servants to pack their bags and begin to leave.

They have been out for several months and have long wanted to go back!

But the heads of the aristocratic families who were still in the main hall, pleading with Li Xiaogong with miserable faces, did not expect this at all.

Their princely titles and feudal kingdoms have nearly exhausted half of their family's wealth.

If they were really withdrawn by the court just because of a few hundred untouchables, then these aristocratic families would definitely be devastated, or even unable to recover, and it is not impossible that they would become poor families from now on.

Thinking about it, all the heads of the aristocratic families gathered next to Li Xiaogong and begged.

"This is a stupid thing you have done. What does it have to do with this king?"

About a quarter of an hour later, Li Xiaogong couldn't bear the trouble anymore, and his face was full of irritation.

"I only came here following His Majesty's order. Instead of asking me to let your family go, you should go and ask for forgiveness from the King of Jin and the Crown Prince. Otherwise, even if you dedicate all your family property to me, I will not be able to do it."

Even the king dare not agree!"

"this……"

The heads of the aristocratic families were stunned for a moment, and then they all slapped their heads violently, filled with regret. They were so frightened by the power of the Hejian County Prince that they became confused.

For this kind of thing, instead of asking the rightful owner, you keep asking the person doing the work!

No wonder the King of Jin and the Crown Prince looked so angry just now.

"Thank you, Prince, for reminding me!"

After thanking them, the heads of the aristocratic families prepared to look for Li Chengqian, Li Xuan and others.

However, after listening to the words of the soldiers at the door, everyone was filled with disbelief.
To be continued...
