As soon as Gu Ruoyu and Yuchi Baoqi arrived at the gate of the banknote printing factory, the guard told them that something was wrong inside. The two hurried to the yard where Gu Di and the others lived, and saw many people standing at the door.

Seeing that Yuchi Baoqi and Gu Ruoyu came over, a guard from the Hundred Riders came up.

Gu Ruoyu knew him and asked anxiously: "Sir, my father, is he okay?"

The guard said carefully: "Miss Gu, please feel sorry for me, please Lord..."

Before he could finish speaking, Yuchi Baoqi became anxious. Gu Ruoyu even cried and shouted "Dad" and rushed in...

After a long time, a man from the Hundred Riders held a letter and said to Gu Ruoyu: "This is what Ling Zun stayed."

Gu Ruoyu, who had just woken up, had tears in her eyes and saw vaguely saying "His Royal Highness of Qi's personal opening" on the envelope.

The Palace of King Qi.

Gu Ruoyu's mourning hall was set up in the Qi Prince's Mansion, and Xiao Wanyu and others helped Gu Ruoyu organize the funeral. Gu Ruoyu had no relatives, and the people who came to pay their respects were all from the Qi Prince's Mansion. Even so, Gu Ruoyu still knelt next to Gu Ruoyu's coffin, waiting for Gu Ruoyu.

Gu Ruoyu already knew that Gu Wu was his uncle, but in her heart, Gu Wu was his father, and she insisted on waiting for Gu Wu as her daughter.

Yuchi Baoqi was silently accompanying Gu Ruoyu. These days, he has been waiting by her side.

At this time, two people came outside to pay their respects. They were Gao, the mother of Yuchi Gong and Yuchi Baoqi. They knew that their son fell in love with Gu Ruoyu and wanted to meet his future daughter-in-law through the condolences.

Yuchi Gong and Gao incense on Gu Wu, Gu Ruoyu kowtowed to thank him. When she raised her head, Yuchi Gong saw her face clearly and couldn't help but be slightly stunned.

Yuchi Gong and Gao soon left the Qi Palace. On the way home, Gao said happily, "Master, our Baoqi has a good vision. That little girl Gu looks so beautiful, she is even better than I used to be."

Yuchi Gong silently pondered silently.

When Gao saw Yuchi Gong ignore him, he pushed him unhappily and said, "Master, I'm talking to you. Do you think our Baoqi has a good vision?"

"Yeah, okay." Yuchi Gong muttered, and fell into deep thought again.

Seeing him like this, Gao said angrily: "You are hysterical." He was too lazy to talk to him again after saying that.

Yuchi Gong continued to ponder. He always felt that Gu Ruoyu seemed familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.

Something happened to Gu Di and others. People who didn't know the truth all thought it was Li Shimin's murder on them. For a moment, Li Shimin and the prestige of the court was severely damaged.

Cui Huang was anxiously waiting for the reply from the five major families. At the same time, he directed Cui's children, in-laws and disciples, while spreading rumors, while catching up on time to connect them everywhere.

On that day, he finally waited for good news. The first person to respond was the Boling Cui family of the same clan. They decided to advance and retreat with the Qinghe Cui family. Immediately, the people of the Boling Cui family also joined the connection.

Soon after, the major families responded one after another, and they all expressed their willingness to advance and retreat with the Cui clan of Qinghe. They were numerous and connected everywhere, secretly accumulating strength.

Liangyi Hall, study room.

Yin Hongzhi took Yin Guanghao to meet Li Shimin, and he said, "Your Majesty, my son heard some rumors that were not conducive to the court, and wanted to report to you."

Li Shimin knew that Li You had an intelligence website, which was led by Yin Guanghao, and he said, "Tell me."

Yin Guanghao said: "Your Majesty, I will monitor the Cui family in Qinghe and the relevant personnel at the order of His Highness, and find that they are planning a huge conspiracy."

He reported to Li Shimin what connected the clans to each other.

Li Shimin said: "Okay, I understand. You continue to monitor them. If there is any situation, you can report directly to me through the gatekeeper and Wang De." This approach is much more convenient than reporting through other ministers.

"I obey the order." Yin Guanghao said with a tribute.

After Yin Hongzhi and his son left, Li Shimin called Ma Xuanliang, compared the situation provided by Yin Guanghao with the situation he knew, and asked him to retreat, and then called Li Chengqian, Changsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling and Yuchi Gong.

Li Shimin informed him of the activities of the aristocratic clans in Chang'an.

Changsun Wuji said with some concern: "Your Majesty, I have also heard some rumors, but I didn't expect the situation to be so serious."

Fang Xuanling's mind was quick, and he immediately said, "Your Majesty, the number of people in several major families is too large and the strength is too strong. If they are allowed to be hugged, once the trouble starts, ordinary officials and the people will not understand the truth, and the situation will be difficult to control.

The excuse for these people to unite is that the Cui family in Qinghe was suppressed for no reason. The most urgent task now is to be able to quickly break through the Cui family in Qinghe, get evidence of their violation, and quickly deal with them, and then they can collapse their alliance."

Li Shimin said: "Xuanling, you will immediately send someone to urge Li You and Wei Zheng and others to solve the Cui family in Qinghe as soon as possible."

Fang Xuanling said: "I obey the order, so I will send someone from the Ministry of War to urge them."

Li Shimin said: "Assisted by the time Hou Junji is away, you must be aware of the Ministry of Personnel and monitor the activities of Chang'an and other officials in Chang'an."

"I obey the order." Changsun Wuji said.

"Jingde, you secretly mobilize the Jinwu Guard to prepare for war. You must do a good job in the security of Chang'an City and not let Chang'an City get out of control." Li Shimin said.

"I obey the order." Yuchi Gong said.

"Prince, you can immediately publish newspapers and do a good job in publicity. In addition, you send someone to notify Kong Yingda to let him master the Ministry of Education and guide all schools in Chang'an City, so as not to get students involved in the incidents of the clans."

"And the minister follows the order." Li Chengqian said.

Li Shimin said, "You guys retreat first."

"I will leave." Fang Xuanling and others saluted and left.

Li Shimin called Ma Xuanliang and said to him: "You send reliable people to Luoyang immediately and let Gao Yong lead no less than 15,000 people to Chang'an."

Although there are many garrisons around Chang'an, the influence of the aristocratic clans is too great. Many generals of these garrisons have close ties with the aristocratic clans. Li Shimin is making the worst plan.

Qinghe County Town.

After this period of hard work, Wei Zheng and others made some progress, but it was still unsatisfactory. The evidence they had still not involved important figures of the Cui family in Qinghe. These evidence alone were not enough to destroy Cui family in Qinghe. He was very depressed.

Wang Huairen was also angry, and he had never seen such a united person. No matter how coercive or tempted, no one came out to expose and report the Cui family in Qinghe.

Hou Junji was already anxious. He stared at his blood-red eyes and wanted to kill someone, but no one reported it. He wanted to vent his anger but couldn't find a partner to vent, which made him so angry that he whipped the table with a horse whip from time to time. The people around him all avoided him to avoid being hurt by him.

At this moment, a flag official came in and said, "Master General Wei, Lord Wang, Your Highness King Qi has arrived."
